After speaking, he slowed down his tone again, with a look of eager expectation in his eyes:

"The country is in crisis, and I just hope that I can clear up all the previous differences with Huan Shijun. I hope Huan Shijun can help me with the matter in Hebei."

Unexpectedly, Huan Fan sighed, shook his head and refused:

"A certain person and the general are from the same hometown. Fortunately, he was promoted by the general, so he was able to serve as the governor of Jizhou."

"Now that I have been entrusted by the general, I am extremely ashamed. How dare you accept the kindness of the Taifu again?"

After saying this, he bowed to Sima Yi again and saluted:

"All kinds of pictures, books and documents in Jizhou have been sealed in the treasury, waiting for the Taifu to go and open them."

As soon as Sima Yi heard this, he immediately became happy.

With these things, everything in Jizhou is under control!

I heard Huan Fan continue to say:

"If Taifu really can ignore my previous sins and consider my merits, please allow me to leave with my entourage."

"If the master doesn't tolerate me, I will ask myself to be imprisoned until the court punishes me."

Sima Yi was startled and lost his voice:

"What does Huan Shijun mean by this? Could it be that he wants to abandon his official position and leave? Doesn't this, this, doesn't this make me a sinner?"

The best situation in his mind was to let Huan Fan stay and continue to serve as the ostensible governor of Jizhou to appease the people of Jizhou.

But he planted his cronies and gradually secretly controlled Jizhou.

In this way, the transition of control of Jizhou can be completed smoothly.

Huan Fan's words broke Sima Yi's fantasy.

"How can a certain person have the nerve to stay in the position of governor of Jizhou despite being entrusted by the general? When I came out today, I had already hung my official seal in the hall. Now I just want to resign and return to my hometown."

Sima Yi also knew that the relationship between Huan Fan and Cao Shuang was indeed not shallow.

But this time when he led the army into Hebei, he had completely broken up with Cao Shuang.

Not to mention that he asked people to enumerate Cao Shuang's crimes outside Yecheng.

I'm afraid it won't be easy for Huan Fan to stay.

Sima Yi sighed deeply and looked at Huan Fan with regret:

"Huan Shijun is really unwilling to help me?"

Huan Fan looked at Sima Yi steadily and said:

"Master, do you want me to go to jail?"

The implication is that if you want him to stay, the only way is to imprison him in prison.

"How dare I do this?"

If you imprison a state governor without justifiable reasons, it is really no different from rebellion.

"Then the master is planning to make me bear the kindness of the general, the righteousness of my fellow countrymen, and make the world laugh at me?"

Sima Yi was silent for a while and then said:

"How dare I do this?"

Sighing slightly again: "Then, Huan Shijun, please do as you please."

Then he turned around and ordered:

"Second order, Huan Shijun can enter or leave Yecheng. No one can stop him. Violators will be punished according to military law!"

"Here!"

"Thank you, Master."

"I, Xie Huan, envoy you, are the ones who do not harm the soldiers and protect the officials. I am truly benevolent and righteous."

Huan Fan shook his head without changing his expression:

"From now on, I will no longer be the governor of Jizhou, and I dare not be called the envoy again."

After saying this, he bowed to Sima Yi again, turned around to greet his entourage, and left Yecheng.

But I saw that his team was huge, no less than three hundred people.

There were even people leading dozens of fine horses.

Although Sima Yi was slightly surprised, he did not delve into it.

After all, in recent years, the trend of aristocratic families, powerful people and annexing lands has not diminished with the decline of the Wei Dynasty, but has become more and more fierce.

For example, the Three Dogs of Taichung, who were in Xuchang, dared to take advantage of the situation to swallow up Luoyang royal family Tang Mu, and invade Hanoi government land.

His greed is evident.

After plundering all the worldly wealth, one naturally indulges in pleasure and extravagance.

Huan Fan came from the Huan family in Longkang County, Pei County.

The Huan family has passed down the Book of Documents from generation to generation, and can be said to be a family of Confucian classics scholars with a long lineage of ministers.

Although Huan Fan has a reputation for being honest and frugal, reputation is such a thing...

Sima Yi looked at this long team with an unpredictable look in his eyes.

It is indeed not without reason that the late emperor wanted to suppress the flashy people.

But now is not the time to lament this. Sima Yi waited patiently for Huan Fan's team to all leave the city, and Sima Yi couldn't wait to have people go to the treasury to check.

It turns out that it is true as Huan Fan said, the treasury materials, books and documents were all well sealed and there was no intentional damage.

Sima Yi finally couldn't contain his inner ecstasy:

"Huan Yuan didn't lie to me. The pictures and books are complete. It seems that all the land in Jizhou is in the palm of his hand!"

I remembered that I had been trapped in Hanoi, Henan for so many years. I had to do my best to stop the Western thieves, but also demanded food from the Eastern traitors.

Does anyone know the frustration involved?

Okay now, okay now!

Although Sima Yi was very cunning, when he picked up a book and patted it vigorously with one hand, his face was full of uncontrollable joy.

As long as we control Hebei, we will no longer have to be controlled by traitors.

It can be said that a fish escapes from the net, jumps into the river, and is free from now on!

Although it was a pity that Huan Fan left, he was still sensible and hung his official seal in the hall, pretending to resign and return home.

In this way, he will not be said to be driving away the imperial officials, and naturally he will not be in too much trouble.

The worst case scenario is to write to the court and ask the court to send another governor to take charge.

As for myself, before the arrival of the governor, in order to prevent the Western bandits from taking the opportunity to advance eastward, I naturally had to work hard and act as an agent for Jizhou.

It's just that when he entered Yecheng, he was alone in defeating the bandits and had no choice but to retreat to Jizhou.

There is another reason, and that is to punish Cao Shuang.

The most serious crime Cao Shuang committed was humiliating his late emperor.

Thinking of this, Sima Yi quickly called out:

"Come here, gather the troops and follow me to the Bronze Bird Garden."

In the past, the gatekeeper of Tongque Garden could be regarded as a leisurely and comfortable position.

Who would have expected that these days, we would be experiencing the biggest crisis.

Seeing Huan Shijun leading people to break into Tongque Garden at night, he didn't know what kind of consequences he was about to suffer.

At this time, when he saw the Taifu leading his troops, the gatekeeper felt that the sky was about to fall.

But because of his responsibilities, he had to bite the bullet and step forward:

"I'm here to pay my respects to the Tutor. I don't know if the Tutor is here, uh, but, what's the matter?"

Facing this somewhat trembling gatekeeper, Sima Taifu was much more affable than Huan Shijun.

"It doesn't have to be like this. The reason I came with the army this time is to punish traitors and revitalize the royal family. I heard that Cao Shuang secretly accepted talents from the late emperor, and he dared to hide them in the Bronze Bird Garden built by Emperor Wu."

"Such actions are simply contempt for the royal family and trampling on the imperial power. It is not an exaggeration to call him a traitor and a minister."

"Therefore, I came here this time to expose the rebellious behavior of the rebellious ministers and the dirt of the Qing royal family."

As soon as the gatekeeper heard this, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat, his legs became weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Um?"

Seeing the other party's appearance, Master Sima felt something was wrong:

"Why do you look like this?"

"Too...Too...Too Master, please forgive me!"
