Emperor Ling of Han was the last powerful emperor of the Han Dynasty, a figure who could have altered the course of history, yet he became the root cause of the empire's collapse.
Fate ha...
The border, which has just stabilized, will once again fall into turmoil.
The Lu family, the Gao family of Gaoling, and Beigong Boyu and others must be trying to take advantage of the outbreak of war to fish in troubled waters.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yu couldn't help but sneer, then looked at the captain and asked, "Have those slaves been settled?"
"Reporting to my superior, I have already sent people to make arrangements, instructing them to disguise themselves as ordinary Qiang people and seek refuge with the Shaodang tribe!"
Cheng Yu nodded, "Very good! As long as the Shaodang tribe takes them in, then a rift will develop between Beigong Boyu and the others and Ma Yi, making it unlikely that they will be able to do anything!"
"What about Juyan?" the captain couldn't help but ask.
"Heh~ things won't get chaotic over there!"
Cheng Yu then looked at the captain and said coldly, "Go immediately and arrange for men to assassinate their King Juyan and frame the Xiongnu!"
"promise!"
After the captain left, Cheng Yu summoned a trusted aide and asked:
"The imperial inspectors dispatched by His Majesty should have arrived in the Jingzhao region by now, right?"
"Reporting to my superior, we have been informed that we have arrived near Chang'an!"
Upon hearing the report, Cheng Yu picked up the secret letter from the Lu family and asked softly, "Have they made their move?"
The subordinate nodded and said in a deep voice, "That's right! Zhong Yao, who is in charge there, has arrested three county magistrates. Without exception, they are all accused of colluding with the Xiongnu to sell refined iron, and they were all appointed by His Majesty through examination!"
"What about Sima Fang and Chen Qun?"
"Sima Fang went to Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and Chen Qun went to Yuzhou and Xuzhou. The specific details have not yet been found out because of the distance!"
"Yan, Qing, Yu, Xu?"
Cheng Yu fell into deep thought. They had already reported the findings of their investigation to the Emperor. The source of this whole affair was clearly in Liangzhou.
Logically, the three inspecting censors should have focused their efforts on the three prefectures of You, Bing, and Liang.
However, of the three imperial inspectors dispatched by the emperor, only one headed towards Liangzhou, while the other two went to four other unrelated prefectures.
"Could it be that the Emperor intends to use them, or manipulate them, to completely muddy the waters?"
