Chapter 192 Dongdu sets up a trap, Liangzhou secretly shoots, there is no turning back
Cui Lie concluded that the murder of three families of Yuan, Liu and Tang, as well as the hanging corpse at the gate of the general's house, were done by Xianbei people.
As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
Ma Rixi asked in surprise: "Why did the Xianbei people exterminate their family? Why did they hang their bodies? Why did Lou Se assassinate the general and Zhi Jinwu? What is the connection with Nanfeng Manor? How do you explain the Jinyiwei costumes?"
Cui Lie sighed in his heart, these problems cannot be avoided.
"Lou Se is a spy of the Xianbei people. The supervisor of Nanfeng Manor neglected his duties and the review was lax. He has been dismissed pending investigation."
"It's no secret that Youyong's Northern Expedition to Xianbei, the Xianbei people ordered Lou Se to assassinate the general and Zhi Jinwu in order to interfere with the army's expedition."
"The Xianbei people pretended to be Jin Yiwei and killed their families and hung their corpses in order to divide the Han Dynasty and prevent them from continuing to use troops."
"At the same time, they deliberately left Yuan, Liu and Tang behind as both a provocation and a warning to intimidate the Han monarchs and ministers."
Zhou Zhong immediately stepped out and asked: "Cui Tingwei, what you said is full of loopholes, who would believe it?"
Cui Lie didn't bother to explain: "It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Anyway, Yuan, Liu and Tang have confirmed that there are indeed Xianbei and Wuhuan people among the murderers."
Sun Rui, a minister who has just taken office, is upright and loyal.
"Cui Tingwei, is this how you handle cases? You are so confused!"
Cai Yong frowned and said, "Shang Shuling, this is inappropriate!"
Wang Yun took the opportunity to say: "I don't see anything wrong. Cui Tingwei really can't justify himself. Cai Zhongcheng should stop being a good guy."
Cai Yong's eyebrows twitched and he immediately retorted: "I would like to advise all colleagues to work together. How can you be abusing a good person?"
"Yes, yes or no, it's for all to see."
"You!"
Seeing that things are about to get out of control, all the ministers are preparing to fight, and the court may become a vegetable market.
At this time, Jingzhao Yin Gaixun stood up and said: "There is no need to make noise in the court. It will lose the dignity of the ministers. If you have different opinions, just report them separately."
Xuanbo immediately climbed up the pole and said immediately: "What Gai Yin said is, everyone, pay attention to your identity and appearance!"
The strange thing is that none of the Grand Master, the Grand Tutor, the Young Emperor, the Queen Mother and even Zhi Jinwu made any statement.
Now, both civil and military officials understood, this was obviously a tacit understanding between the big guys!
Come on, if the emperor is not in a hurry to kill the eunuch, whoever wants to care can care about it.
No one expected a shocking murder, a major event that could have turned the world upside down.
In this way, it started but ended, and was annihilated under the machinations.
After going to court, Wang Yun intended to get close to the virtuous son-in-law.
Quietly asked: "The smell in the court is not right, my dear son-in-law, does he know the reason?"
Liu Bei thought for a while and said: "I heard from Chan'er that Taishan is feeling unwell and needs to go somewhere else to recuperate!"
Wang Yun shook his head repeatedly: "It's okay, I'm fine, but the lieutenant looked a lot worse."
Ma Rixi is old, and the Taiwei Mansion is also in charge of national military affairs.
Therefore, there is a mountain of paperwork every day. As an elderly civil servant, it is surprising that he looks good.
Liu Bei smiled and said goodbye to Wang Yun.
Liu Bei did not return to his home, but went straight to the Taishi's Mansion.
In the study, Lu Zhi looked solemn, shook his head and said, "Take care of yourself and don't worry about me."
After the villain left, Lu Zhi sighed quietly: "Is the world really so chaotic?"
Liu Bei rode on his horse and browsed the splendid Eastern Capital with endless emotion.
Even if the wheel of history has changed its appearance, it seems that it is still trying to find ways to return to its original trajectory.
What an irony!
That night, the grape trellis in Zhijinwu's back house fell down.
In the early morning of the 10th, two carriages drove out of Zhijinwu Mansion and headed north out of Dongdu.
According to the gossip from the servants: Cai Yong and Wang Yun had a fight in court yesterday, which led to Cai Yan and Diao Chan confronting each other.
Then a conflict broke out between Liu Bei's wives and concubines, and Zhi Jinwu did not try to persuade them to make peace in person. He was so angry that he went to the other courtyard in the northern suburbs.
Therefore, early in the morning, under the protection of the servants, Diao Chan and Zhen Jiang rushed to Mengjin by car, and then to Zhongshan, claiming to be having fun and relaxing.
Such breaking news immediately put Zhi Jinwu on the hot search list.
When he learned that there was a fire in his eldest brother's backyard, Zhang Xiaosan in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion directly picked up the wine bottle and took a sullen sip.
Why do women in the family like to make trouble?
Why do you have to push a man to the point of no return?
If I had known it was so troublesome, I would have gotten married!
Although he drank a lot, Zhang Xiaosan could still stay sober.
At this time, you must not go to other courtyards, and your eldest brother’s face must not be lost.
Just pretend you didn't hear it, pretend to be stupid, and don't know anything.
After putting on his clothes, Master Zhang came out of Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Just as he was about to get on his horse, someone came in a hurry.
Huangmen sent an edict: Zhang Fei entered the palace quickly.
Hey, isn’t it Xiu Mu today? Why do you still have to go to court?
Huangmen urged Zhang Fei to enter the palace without saying a word.
There was no other way, so Zhang Fei quickly changed into the official uniform held by his own soldiers, found a basin of water to wash up, then mounted his horse and headed straight to Changle Palace.
Above the main hall, empress dowager He, the young emperor, Taishi Lu Zhi, Taifu Yuan Ji, General He Jin, Taiwei Ma Rixi and other important officials in the court were all waiting for Zhang Fei.
The military intelligence was urgently reported. Near Shangdang in Bingzhou, the Black Mountain Army, a remnant of the Golden Army, suddenly broke out in rebellion. They gathered hundreds of thousands of people and invaded Hanoi County, which is very likely to threaten the Eastern Capital.
With the recommendation of the general, Zhang Fei can lead the five schools of the Northern Army to suppress it.
Zhang Fei had no choice but to accept the order, and just as he was retreating, Lu Zhi spoke.
Lu Zhi is the elder brother's mentor, and naturally Zhang Fei's elder, so he must bend down and listen.
"Thieves are rampant, and Yide is heading south. You must think more and see more, and proceed slowly and cautiously."
"Yide will follow the teachings of the Grand Master!"
Zhang Fei came out of the palace and went straight to the Northern Army camp in the north of the city. The Taiwei Mansion had already prepared supplies and civilians to accompany him.
The fifth school of the Northern Army rushed out of Dongdu and headed straight for Mengjin.
At this point, of the Central Field Army stationed in Dongdu, only Xia Mou, the left captain of Xiyuan, and Chun Yuqiong, the right captain of Xiyuan, were left.
The garrison includes the Hu, Ben and Yulin armies controlled by Zhou Zhong, and there are more than 10,000 county soldiers controlled by Yin Gaixun of Jingzhao outside the eastern capital.
The situation is gradually becoming clearer, some are happy, some are worried, and some are indifferent.
Ever since the fire broke out in the back house, Zhi Jinwu had been drunk and dreaming in the gentle countryside of the other courtyard. He even handed in the leave application form in advance to the Empress Dowager He's case.
"The Queen Mother clearly knows that I will be bedridden from September 11th to 13th, and I hereby ask for leave."
Queen Mother He shook her head: "Is the Emperor making a statement?"
Zhao Zhong was a little unsure and glanced at Zhang Rang.
Zhang Rang said: "Whether we express our stance or not does not affect the overall situation, we will see the result within three days."
Yuan Ji thought it was a coincidence. It was only three days. Could it be that Liu Bei had already discovered it?
Back at the mansion, Yuan Ji found Guo Jia and told Liu Bei that he was ill and unable to come out.
Guo Jia was keenly aware of the danger.
"I'm afraid that the news will be leaked, so Zhi Jinwu must have taken measures to deal with it."
Yuan Ji was very puzzled. If you want to say that the news was leaked, it was possible, but what could Liu Bei do to deal with it?
Apart from the hidden Jin Yiwei and security team members, who else can help him now?
Guo Jia only made judgments based on intuition, but this could not convince Yuan Ji. After all, Liangzhou had already shot the arrow and there was no turning back.
"Capture Sun Xia first, and then send Xia Mou and Chunyu Qiong to monitor the other courtyards in the northern suburbs. Don't leave any chance."
Yuan Ji thinks this is okay. Pulling out the tiger's claws and teeth will be beneficial to everyone.
Therefore, the troops were divided into two groups, asking Gai Xun to trap Sun Xia, and asking He Jin to mobilize the two remaining schools in Xiyuan to train in the north of the city.
In the east of Hongnong County, Li Que and Guo Si each led 3,000 soldiers and were heading towards the east capital from a small road.
Li Que looked ahead and said with a smile: "The big-eared thief is dead this time!"
Guo Bin smiled gloomily and said: "This time Zhou Mu takes the Dongdu, we won't leave, right?"
Li Que was extremely proud: "Feng Shui has changed. We have been eating sand for so many years, and we should enjoy the blessings long ago. I heard that the girls in the streets of Dongdu are as tender as flower bones!"
"Hahaha!"
Chapter completed!
