Chapter 2489 Darkness and Light(1/2)
The night gradually thinned, and the sky gradually became brighter.
Darkness will always pass and light will always come.
There is nothing wrong with this, but it can also be said conversely that light will pass and darkness will come, unless the earth stops rotating on that day.
The alternation of day and night, the symphony of darkness and light, the confusion between advancement and retreat, seems to have become an almost eternal theme in this world.
However, fallen heads never grow back.
Otherwise, it will become fantasy or fantasy...
Cao Cao looked at the heads displayed in front of him with a sullen face, slightly squinting his eyes, and a sneer on his lips.
The head at the front is a macro one.
Behind them are the heads of officials of all sizes in Yingyin County. Almost all of the middle-level officials and above were beheaded by Xiahou Dun and displayed here, with their teeth bared and their faces black and blue.
This time, although Xiahou Dun hesitated a little on the road, when he arrived at Yingyin County, he saw and heard Zhong Hong's words and deeds with his own eyes, and he had no reservations anymore.
A large county in Yingchuan, which can be said to be on the side of Xudu, dares to deceive the superiors and deceive the subordinates, and commit fraud!
This made Xiahou Dun extremely angry, but it also made Xiahou Dun feel heartbroken.
This is Yingchuan!
Yingchuan, known as the pillar of Cao Cao's regime!
However, Xiahou Dun did not know that the transmission of information has been prone to loss and distortion since ancient times.
Even in later generations, there will often be some distorted information flowing freely, just like the shadows in the night. When the light does not arrive, it will spread its teeth and claws...
Especially when light and darkness meet, who can completely know which side is light and which side is darkness? In addition, what if the person's eyes are blindfolded and his ears are blocked? Or can the eyes see? It was painted by others, and what others said was heard by others...
The smell of blood emanating from the heads of more than twenty people seems to remind us that the current world is still a matter of life and death.
Cao Cao was silent.
Xiahou Dun also remained silent.
In fact, Cao Cao did not expect that Ying Yin had become so corrupted.
"Good kill!"
Cao Cao smiled while stroking his palms.
But after a moment, Cao Cao stopped smiling and said, "It's just that we killed him too early."
Cao Cao was already mentally prepared for Ying Yin's situation, but he didn't expect the situation to be worse than he had expected!
Xiahou Dun was silent for a moment, "Lord, I'm worried that... the killing will be too late, and there will be more trouble..."
Indeed.
If Xiahou Dun hadn't beheaded Zhong Hong on the spot and shocked all the Yingyin officials, he would have had to argue with these Yingyin officials. How many things would have been delayed.
Of course, Zhong Hong probably didn't expect that Xiahou Dun would take action directly...
The original plan for farming was just two words, "Farming Season".
Farming time waits for no one. With three delays and two delays, everything can be delayed and ruined.
As long as Xiahou Dun's hands are a little softer, as long as Xiahou Dun feels that he can take his time and ask carefully, then the autumn harvest will be nothing, and it will all rot in the ground!
Will ordinary farmers know what caused it? Coupled with the guidance of some squires intentionally or unintentionally, it will turn into a violent situation!
At that time, people like Zhong Hong would just flick their sleeves and say that they had already said certain words and done certain things, but all of them were caused by Xiahou Dun deliberately making things difficult and delaying the farming season!
What will happen when the newly appointed Prime Minister Cao faces overwhelming public opinion and infamy?
So what?
Is it possible that Cao Cao could also arrest and kill these ordinary people?
No, maybe at that time, these people will take the initiative to arrest these suffering people without Cao Cao's orders, and then find ways to let other people know about it, in order to accumulate public anger and resentment, and dump such a huge cauldron on Cao Cao
Go on!
"You untouchables, how dare you discuss state affairs arbitrarily?!"
"How dare you criticize the Prime Minister?"
If Cao Cao had an order, just to prevent the spread of rumors, these people would order all the people to shut up and seal their breathing with needles and threads! Then put different stickers on them, seals at the county level, and then at the county level.
Once sealed, those at the township level can be sealed again. When the minions who were doing the actual work saw that there was nowhere to seal the seven orifices in front of them, they became anxious...
How can this work? Not being sealed means that you have nothing to do, and having nothing to do means that you are not important!
After thinking about it, I yelled, "Come here, please pull off his pants and seal my asshole!"
On the other hand, if Cao Cao did not issue an order to prohibit the people from talking to each other, these people would quietly send people to mix among the people and continue to spread rumors...
And so on.
By then it won't matter whether there is shit in Cao Cao's crotch or not.
"The killing was good," Cao Cao squinted his eyes, "I just feel like he didn't kill enough!"
Xiahou Dun was silent.
These heads are only the main people involved in the Yingyin incident and have not been implicated in the wider case.
Cao Cao pinched his beard slightly, "Yuan Rang meant that the matter should stop here?"
Xiahou Dun was silent for a while, then he cupped his hands and said, "My lord... the autumn harvest is coming..."
"Autumn harvest..." Cao Cao repeated, and then said, "You and I are here, still worried about the country and the people, but if it's just you and me, what's the use?"
"Lord, please calm down." Xiahou Dun said, "Now we should make a big plan first to ensure success in the autumn."
Cao Cao pondered for a moment, "Yuan Rang, what should we do if we use military supervision to capture him?"
"Take it back?" Xiahou Dun was stunned.
Cao Cao stood up, then walked down to the hall, looking at the heads placed in the courtyard, "Such a smell of decay fills the world... If we don't get rid of it now, tomorrow will come tomorrow, year after year, but it will wait."
In what year and month will we be able to become pure? We will supervise them with soldiers. If there is any treachery, we will eliminate it immediately!"
Xiahou Dun stood up, walked to Cao Cao's side, and pondered for a long time, "It's not difficult to withdraw the troops in front, but it's difficult to retreat behind them...Do you have any arrangements, my lord?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cao Cao looked up at the sky, "People's calculations... sometimes are not as good as heaven's calculations... Go ahead!"
Xiahou Dun said no more, cupped his hands and said, "Follow the order!"
Cao Cao watched Xiahou Dun leave, and then signaled to the guards in the hall, "Throw all these filthy things into the mass graves!"
Hanging it on the city gate? Cao Cao thought it wouldn't have much effect, so he didn't bother to bother. Killing chickens to scare monkeys requires the monkeys to know how to be afraid. When a group of monkeys are blinded by eating, how can they be afraid?
The guard responded and then waved out.
The soldiers on duty outside the door filed in, each carrying a few heads before walking out, just like carrying bags of vegetables and fruits. No one felt any extra discomfort with these heads.
Zhong Hong's head was also pulled up, and then it happened to be dangling and collided with Guo Feng's head. Their faces hit each other, spinning, bumping into each other, and then leaving again. It seemed that the two of them were still the same as before in life, from time to time.
They gathered together and whispered...
……(⊙?⊙)(=?=)……
On this day, Guo Jia got up early.
Not long after the ugly time, he got up to wash and dress...
This doesn't happen normally.
After all, Guo Jia has a privilege. He got it by pretending to be lazy. Cao Cao gave Guo Jia permission not to participate in the court meeting and not to do anything.
Of course, only Guo Jia has this privilege.
It's like the log that Shang Yang erected at the city gate. It will naturally only be erected once. It's also like the lottery shop saying that someone insists on buying every month and finally wins the prize, but it won't say that there will be more.
How many people are buying it year after year...
If there is a piece of wood standing up every day, then the whole country will go to the city gate to carry wood, what else will they do? If you can win the lottery every time, what else can you eat, live, and play?
Of course, Guo Jia must perform this piece of wood well so that he can always remind everyone, look and see, this piece of wood has won the prize!
Whether it's a real person or not, that doesn't matter.
Guo Jia is naturally not a fool. He has been looking forward to this grand meeting for a long time.
The reason is simple, he just wants to see the excitement.
In the past few days, Yingchuan has been extremely lively...
Fighting up and down, using moves against each other, the streets and houses are simply exciting!
Ordinary people are just watching the fun, but the upper-class people are not just having fun with each other, but more of a game at the political level. This is definitely not something that the public knows.
Although Guo Jia is an upper-class figure in the Yingchuan court, he has a heart for the people. Of course, this is related to the fact that he was basically at the lower level of the poor family before, and he is more inclined to the people.
Well, I just tend to let him be an ordinary person without drinking. Well, if Guo Jia really lived the life of an ordinary person, Guo Jia wouldn't be able to survive.
In order to avoid suspicion, Guo Jia did not go out for the past two days. Although this would make Guo Jia feel itchy, he knew that in this situation, the more he got involved, the more he would be stained with yellow mud. If he was not careful,
If it fell into the crotch, it's really not clear. You can't take it out and let people get closer and smell it?
To be continued...
