The civil and military ministers in the main hall were all stunned.
Of course, I also know that this matter is very serious.
"Wei Situ... Where is your majesty?"
The speaker was Sikong Cuilin. At this time, he couldn't be said to be happy or depressed. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him now.
Because no matter who becomes the emperor in the end,
The impact on him will not be too big.
So when the hall suddenly fell silent, he calmly asked Wei Zhen.
Cui Lin was the first to speak, and the other ministers naturally looked at Wei Zhen expectantly, wanting to know how Cao Yu planned to resolve this matter.
"Don't worry, everyone..." Wei Zhen slightly bowed his hands to everyone and said, "Your Majesty will take care of this matter. Please go to the side hall to rest for the time being.
Waiting for His Majesty’s summons.”
Wei Zhen seemed to have something to do, so he finished speaking.
He signaled the eunuch to lead the officials to the side hall next to him.
In the royal study.
Cao Yu paced back and forth in the room. When Wei Zhen left and returned, he asked anxiously: "Ai Qing... How are the officials feeling?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry!"
"They are fine."
Wei Zhen said immediately, he also saw that at this time, they had to rely on themselves to solve this problem.
"Your Majesty!" Wei Zhen saluted Cao Yu and said: "Now we can only confirm Sima Yi's rebellion, and then we will hold on to Luoyang City and wait for reinforcements from the surrounding areas."
"But...he..."
Wei Zhen naturally knew who Cao Yu was talking about, he was talking about Cao Rui.
Wei Zhen said coldly: "Then just follow Sima's wishes. Didn't he announce that Cao Rui had been assassinated? This is just right..."
Cao Rui was assassinated——
Wei Zhen naturally didn't believe it. If Cao Rui was really dead, based on his understanding of Sima Yi, Sima Yi would never rebel for a dead emperor.
Cao Rui must still be there.
"Your Majesty!" Wei Zhen said again: "Now we don't have to fight with Sima Yi, we only need to think of ways to stabilize him...and then...then think of ways to eradicate them together."
This is what happened,
There is no turning back for them.
As the saying goes, the winner is a prince and the loser is a bandit.
"Okay!" Cao Yu nodded in affirmation.
......
Outside Luoyang City.
Sima Yi's camp.
"Your Majesty!" Sima Yi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry.
In just three days at most, the ministers will escort His Majesty back to the palace."
"Yes!" Cao Rui nodded, and then said: "My beloved, you must remember that if you can do it without using weapons, try not to do so..."
Although he encountered assassins sent by Cao Yu in Hongnong, Cao Rui still felt that even if he wanted to regain the throne, it was best to use force without bloodshed. After all, these people were all soldiers of the Wei Dynasty.
"Wei Chen accepts the decree!"
Sima Yi bowed and obeyed.
.......
Sima Yi's army surrounded Luoyang City, but he surrounded it without attacking, but starting from the second day, he took action.
Early the next morning, spears continued to fly from outside the walls of Luoyang City.
These spears were not fired at the soldiers at the top of the city. Instead, they flew over the top of the city and then shot into the city. However, they all chose relatively remote places to shoot.
In almost half an hour, the shooting outside the city ended.
As the shooting outside the city ended, the soldiers and civilians in the city also knew the purpose of these spears. It turned out that General Sima Yi had a note tied to each spear.
The note was written to everyone in Luoyang City, including the current emperor Cao Yu and Situ Weizhen.
Sima Yi clearly explained the reason for the incident in the note, saying that the emperor Cao Rui had no intention of fighting for the throne and planned to live in seclusion in the countryside. However, for his own selfish desires, the emperor ignored the blood of the clan and listened to the words of the treacherous minister Wei Zhen, so he sent the assassin Cao Rui to assassinate him. .< /p>
Hiss——
Although the content of this note is not long, it plays a great role.
Because soon both the people of Luoyang City and the soldiers who defended the city knew the truth. General Sima Yi was not a rebel, but a man of justice.
First of all, the people of Luoyang began to sympathize with Cao Rui.
After all, Cao Rui has been the emperor for so many years. Although he has basically never won the war against the Han Dynasty, he still made a great contribution to the development of the country.
He was defeated and captured last year, and now the Han Dynasty has released him and returned him to his country.
But never thought that as emperor, as the emperor's uncle of Cao Rui, he would actually send an assassin to kill Cao Rui?
Haha——
Cao Yu's image in the hearts of the people fell to the bottom in an instant.
The people have changed, and the more than 30,000 defenders in Luoyang have also undergone considerable changes. First of all, the more than 30,000 defenders in Luoyang now are composed of more than 10,000 people from the original Luoyang Jingji Camp, as well as those led by Cao Yu last year. Twenty thousand Qingzhou soldiers came.
The Qingzhou soldiers are direct descendants of Cao Yu, so they are naturally loyal to Cao Yu, but the soldiers of the Luoyang Jingji Battalion have other ideas.
"General!"
In a military camp, a small colonel asked softly: "Has the general made a decision?"
"Why...are you afraid?" the young general asked angrily.
"Afraid of——"
"What are you afraid of?"
"Such an emperor should have been dragged down a long time ago;" the principal said coldly: "In order to become the emperor, I disregard my flesh and blood and family ties... hum..."
"Okay -" the young general interrupted: "Let's all get ready. Whether it succeeds or not depends on tonight."
"No!"
Several elementary school students immediately agreed and walked out.
......
It’s ten minutes after dark.
Although the people of Luoyang City knew that tens of thousands of troops were stationed outside the city and that a conflict between the two sides seemed likely to break out at any time, they still closed their doors and fell asleep.
There are not many lights on the streets. Except for the lanterns on the main street that are still on, the lanterns in the side streets and alleys have long been extinguished.
In a dark alley, a team of a hundred people suddenly appeared. They moved very fast, like well-trained sergeants.
It's not too far from Ximen.
After turning around a few streets, they arrived at the West City Gate. This place was different from the inside of the city. The lights on the city were brightly lit, and there were soldiers patrolling below the city from time to time.
There is also a team of dozens of people in the city gate, standing ready, seemingly waiting for the soldiers and horses outside the city to break through the city gate at any time, and then they will fight with them.
More than a hundred people were hiding in a dark corner of the street. They were led by a young general who carefully observed the movements at the city gate.
After a while, he turned back and asked the soldier beside him: "Go and see if Colonel Yang has arrived."
"No!"
The soldier immediately agreed upon hearing this, then turned and left.
This young general does not look nervous, but on the contrary, he is confident.
For people like them tonight, danger and opportunity really coexist. Maybe in a few hours, they will become dead bodies, but they may also become heroes in welcoming us.
After the soldier left for about a cup of tea, he ran back out of the dark night. As soon as he arrived, he said excitedly: "General, Colonel Yang's people have arrived and are in the alley next door.
."
Hearing this, the young general immediately nodded happily, then waved his hand: "Action!"
