Right General's Mansion.
Wang Shuang came in with Sima Fang and clasped his fists at Liu Cheng: "General, Lord Sima is here."
Sima Fang hurriedly bowed to Liu Cheng and said, "I'm going to send you my official Sima Fang to pay homage to the general."
"Excuse me, Mr.
Sima Jiang, sit here."
Liu Cheng stood up, pointed to the seat on the left, and shouted outside: "Come here, serve tea."
"Thank you, General."
Sima Fang was very serious and rigid in every move.
He neither looked down upon Liu Cheng because of his origin, nor knelt down because Liu Cheng's official position was higher than his.
However, his etiquette was very considerate.
After Sima Fang sat down, the maid brought tea.
Sima Fang took a few sips and then asked: "I wonder what the general's orders are when he comes to the subordinates?"
Liu Cheng put down the tea cup and stepped back with a smile: "I don't dare to take orders.
I heard that General Jian was investigating the suicide case of Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang."
Sima Fang raised his hands and sighed: "Actually, there is nothing to investigate.
The county government's best detectives have gone to the scene where they committed suicide.
All signs show that they did commit suicide, not homicide.
Just because the two of them committed suicide The death of the man and the suicide note left caused a lot of discussion between the government and the public, and the public opinion was unfavorable to Dong Sikong.
Therefore, Dong Sikong forced the official to continue the investigation and must find the murderer.
There was no murderer in these two cases.
The official Where can we catch the murderer?”
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "Wang Kuang is also dead, Lord Sima, do you know?"
Sima Fang was shocked.
Wang Kuang had just died not long ago, and he came here just after he learned the news.
How did General Liu know that?
Although he was surprised, Sima Fang still suppressed the surprise and replied: " Your Majesty also just found out."
"The three of them were originally a team.
Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang committed suicide, but Wang Kuang was first assassinated and then poisoned.
Don't you think it's strange, Lord Sima?"
Sima Fang also noticed on the way here that if these cases were connected, there would indeed be something fishy.
When Liu Cheng asked about this question, he had to say: "I just realized that there was a problem just now, but Wang Kuang was poisoned to death."
In the Yuan Mansion, the Wang family and the Yuan family have not yet sent anyone to the county government to report the case, and it is difficult for the lower officials to lead people to investigate the case."
Liu Cheng looked at Sima Fang and said, "I feel that Zhang Zhang and Wang Kuang did not commit suicide."
Sima Fang was quite surprised and asked: "Why did the general say that and how do you know that they did not commit suicide?"
Liu Cheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Because it was my general who forced them to death."
Sima Fang's expression changed when he heard this, and his hands on his knees began to tremble.
He only felt a little cold on his back and his throat was a little dry.
Then he said with a mournful face: "They died when they died.
They committed suicide after all.
There was no sign of homicide at the scene, and the suicide note can be used as proof that they committed suicide.
Why would the general tell him what had forced them to commit suicide?"
Liu Chengxiao asked: "Master Sima, do you want to know why I did this?"
Sima Fang shook his head hurriedly, shaking his head like a rattle, "No, no, no, I don't want to know, because the more you know, the faster you will die, and I don't want to get involved in this matter."
Liu Cheng raised his finger and shook it: "No, Lord Sima, you should know this, otherwise how could you report to Dong Zhuo?
In fact, Wang Kuang, Wu Kuang, Zhang Zhang and others have no relationship or grudge with this general.

It is not the fault of my general to treat them like this.
All this is just an order from above, and I have no choice but to do it."
Sima Fang's face turned pale.
At this time, he still didn't know that assassinating Wang Kuang and forcing Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang to death were all Queen Mother He's intentions.
But now that he knew about this matter, what should he do?
Arrest Liu Cheng or What kind of joke are you kidding about arresting Queen Mother He to hand over to Dong Zhuo?
He is just a little Luoyang Ling.
His arms are too thin.
No matter how thick his arms are, they can't break Liu Cheng's thigh.
What's more, Queen Mother He is behind Liu Cheng.
Tell Dong Zhuo the truth about this matter.
Sima Fang knew that if he did this, he was afraid that he would die even worse.
Since Liu Cheng told the truth about this matter, he would definitely not worry about him telling Dong Zhuo the truth.
Cold sweat broke out on Sima Fang's forehead.
He weighed it quickly in his mind and made a decision quickly.
He smiled bitterly and said: "The general wants to force Xiaguan to stand in line, but Xiaguan is just a small Luoyang order.
If you can't talk at all in the court, what help will it do to the general?"
Liu Chengdao: "It's just a small Luoyang Order now.
Who knows in the future?"
Sima Fang is also a smart man, otherwise he would not be able to give birth to a son as smart as Sima Yi.
He thought for a while and said: "Dong Zhuo deceives the emperor, is tyrannical, and wants to enter the court to influence the government.
With this person's behavior, he must be A person like Wang Mang is extremely harmful to the world, but now Dong Zhuo was so powerful that many people in the government and the public were afraid of offending him.
The official position of a lower official was such a small one and he had little reputation.
If he openly sided with the general, he would not be able to block Dong Zhuo's anger, and he would not be able to wait until the lower official could play his role.
Dong Zhuo will take care of him.
Even if the general wants to protect his subordinates, he will probably be unable to defend himself."
Liu Chengdao: "With your current official position, you are not even qualified to enter the court and Chengmingtang to discuss affairs.
Dong Zhuo will not waste time on you, and I will not ask you to openly side with me.
You only need to Waiting for the opportunity, ostensibly relying on him temporarily, Dong Zhuo will definitely promote those who promote him, and this general There will also be secret efforts here.
If Lord Sima still thinks that he is a minister of the Han Dynasty, he should work with me to eradicate the traitors in the court, instead of protecting oneself wisely.
Sometimes protecting oneself wisely may not be able to avoid disasters.
When disasters come, it is most likely The way to survive is to actively find ways to solve it instead of avoiding it.”
Sima Fang thought about many things at once.
He instinctively felt that Liu Cheng should have a huge plan, but Liu Cheng didn't say it, and he couldn't analyze it.
Standing on Liu Cheng's side, although the risk was high, just like Liu Cheng said that sometimes it is not necessarily safe not to take sides.
In the court, once a large-scale political struggle occurs, those who die fastest are often those who do not take sides.
"I am willing to serve as a general," Sima Fang thought clearly and immediately bowed to Liu Cheng.
"Jiangong, come on."
Liu Cheng helped Sima Fang up and said, "Originally, someone proposed that the officials who newly serve under my general should be allowed to submit letters of surrender and write letters of allegiance.
This is also the practice throughout the ages, but this general does not Think so, Accepting a pledge of allegiance can certainly allow those who pledge their allegiance to express their loyalty, and asking those who pledge their allegiance to write a letter of allegiance can certainly control them.
However, the pledge of pledge and allegiance letter are somewhat coercive, and once the letter of allegiance is lost, the identity and life of the person concerned will be exposed. yes A huge threat.
This general does not engage in this kind of behavior.
However, this general does not have no rules.
There are strict punishments for those who disobey arrangements, orders, and transfers, and those who rebel.
This general also has A set of strict organizational forms and regulations are written on it to strengthen the management of those who surrender and prevent the infiltration and attack of hostile forces.

Take a look at it and keep it in your mind after reading it.
Don't forget it."
A roll of silk with writing written on it was handed over.
Sima Fang quickly picked it up and started looking at it.
The more he looked at it, the more immersed he became, and the more he looked at it, the more extraordinary he felt
