"For your information, generals! My lord! The ones coming are the Marquis and his blood-devouring warriors!"
When Zhang asked Zhao Zhong and the escorting civil and military officials to be suspicious, a scout quickly came to report, which immediately caused quite a stir and everyone was in a state of turmoil.
"Your Highnesses! Marquis Yi comes from the Western Qiang people. He has a ferocious personality and is cruel and unkind. He is a kind of wolf. This may not be a good intention, so we have to be careful!"
Situ Cui Lie looked at the two brothers Liu Xie and Liu Bian, who were pale-faced and helpless. They sighed secretly and bowed to remind them.
After a pause, without waiting for the two teenagers to answer, he took the initiative to suggest:
"Wei Chen suggested that the two highnesses jointly issue an edict to ask Marquis Yin to retreat. As long as he does not dare to rebel immediately, he will not dare to disobey and the crisis will be solved by himself!"
"Old minister seconded the proposal!"
"Wei Chen seconded the proposal!"
"That's right! If Marquis Yi dares to resist the decree, his status, luck, etc. will be deprived of him. The bloodthirsty soldiers and many accompanying heroes may not follow him. The pressure on us will be greatly reduced!"
Min Gong, Lu Zhi, Liu Hong and other escorting ministers all bowed down to second the proposal, especially Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. Thinking of Li Huang Wu Xin's performance before, his heart skipped a beat, and his spine felt chilly, and he even more echoed.
Liu Bian was confused and panicked for a while, but Liu Xie braced himself and said calmly and hesitantly: "But... the imperial seal required for issuing the edict was not carried with him on this trip!"
Lu Zhi and other ministers were stunned and looked at Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong.
Zhang Rang and other eunuchs looked at each other for a while, dumbfounded.
From this point of view, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong did not deceive General Wang Hejin before, and the Imperial Seal of the Han Emperor was indeed hidden secretly by Zhang Rang and others. However, they did not take it with them when they fled in panic. First, they did not have time to retrieve it.
The second reason is that I am worried that taking the Royal Seal with me would be too big a goal.
Lu Zhi's mind moved, and he volunteered: "If the two princes can trust me, tell me where the imperial seal is, and I will rush back to the Forbidden Palace to take it out in time."
"The character of the minister is well-known throughout the world, so our family can naturally trust it. The six imperial seals... are on the back of the plaque of Jingsui Palace!"
Zhang asked Zhao Zhong to communicate in secret, and then responded readily and pretended to trust him. In fact, they had no better way to deal with it, and there were no suitable candidates available now!
Of course, Lu Zhi was recognized as a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, with a resolute character and noble moral character. Everyone believed that he would not embezzle the imperial seal.
Zhang made Zhao Zhong believe that as long as they held Liu Xie and Liu Bian hostage, Lu Zhi would not be gone forever, and the ministers would not dare to act rashly.
Lu Zhi accepted the promise and immediately turned into the wind and fled, heading straight to the Forbidden Palace.
Cui Lie thought for a while and asked for instructions: "Your Highness, how about I go to deliver the oral instructions and try to repel Marquis Yi and others?"
Liu Bian was at a loss and couldn't answer at all!
Liu Xie quietly looked at the ministers and Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. Seeing that they did not object, he responded: "Yes! It can only be delayed for a while. I hope other reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible, so that the ambitious Marquis and others can be stopped!"
Cui Lie took the order and left, quite like "the wind is rustling and the water is cold, and a strong man will never return once he leaves."
A moment later, hundreds of miles away...
Densely packed bloodthirsty warriors, wearing brown armor and dark red cloaks on their backs, looked like a surge of blood, filling the mountains and plains and heading straight towards the Beimang Mountains.
On both sides of the blood-devouring warriors are the prestigious demon-suppressing iron cavalry who have been guarding northern Xinjiang for many years. Their iron hooves are like thunder and the earth trembles.
Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu were all in the middle of the team, riding their horses and whips in anticipation and anticipation.
The situation has developed so far, and everything is as they expected. The "Ten Permanent Attendants" and the General Wang and the He family are both losing. Their opportunity has come. As long as they catch up with the two highnesses and make immortal contributions, they can legitimately rise to the top.
, it’s time to enter the palace!
"The oracle has arrived..."
Seeing that he was close to the target, a loud shout resounded throughout the wilderness. Cui Lie came through the air, and Luck suspended in the void said loudly:
"His Highness has spoken! Now the war is in chaos, dragons and snakes are mixed. I order the Marquis of Yi and Marquis Wen to immediately lead their troops back to the capital to suppress the situation outside Tiandu City and sweep away the bandits. I admire this!"
"What?" Lu Bu was startled and turned to look at Dong Zhuo.
Cui Lie is a great Han Situ, so naturally he will not falsely preach the edict in front of everyone. Plus everyone knows that the two emperors are indeed in front, so naturally it will not be a lie!
"How outrageous! Nowadays, the war is in turmoil and bandits are everywhere. We should protect the King Qin. How can we let His Highness live in exile and return to the capital to earn a living?!"
Dong Zhuo's mind suddenly changed, and he shouted angrily with a voice as loud as thunder. He paused for a moment, and then quickly continued: "We are here with all our strength and speed to rescue and protect you. If you continue to falsely preach the holy edict and deceive the king's heart, I, the lord, will
I have to kill you and other rats on the spot as a warning to others!"
As he spoke, Dong Zhuo's momentum exploded, black mist steamed over his body, he was fierce and murderous!
"Well……"
Cui Lie was hesitant and speechless for a while. He had known how arrogant and rude Dong Zhuo was, but he didn't expect him to be so rude. He could only bite the bullet and scolded:
"How dare you defy the decree in public?!"
"Resist the edict? Where is the imperial edict? Where is Your Highness? Who issued the edict?"
Dong Zhuo sneered disdainfully and asked questions repeatedly, obviously intending to cheat to the end.
After finishing his words, without waiting for Cui Lie to say more, he controlled the bloodthirsty warriors to overflow with evil clouds. They were like mountains and waves in the sky, pressing down on Cui Lie. Cui Lie felt as if he was on the bottom of the sea, and had to fall to the ground. It was even more like a mountain carrying a heavy load, and it was difficult for him to do so.
Say it again.
"His Royal Highness is in front, fearing a crisis, the whole army should speed up!!!"
Dong Zhuo was unavoidable, so he immediately shouted the order.
The army, which was already marching at full speed, suddenly surged several times in speed and entered a state of forced march and emergency march.
Dong Zhuo frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at Lu Bu and sighed: "Did Fengxian see it? It seems that many ministers don't want to see me waiting!"
"What does Brother Dong mean?" Lu Bu asked, also having a headache.
Dong Zhuo quickly suggested: "The Demon-Suppressing Iron Cavalry are all cavalry and are faster. It is better to go first, surround everyone, and isolate outsiders, so as to prevent the two highnesses from being bewitched and murdered by treacherous ministers, and to avoid complications!"
"This..." Lu Bu hesitated and fell silent.
Lu Bu has a reckless temperament and relatively little scheming, but he is not stupid.
"Don't worry! Now that we are our own people, as brothers we will not plot against Fengxian. If Fengxian is afraid, just surround him without attacking him. Just wait for our army to arrive and then our army will take action!" Dong Zhuo said rather generously and intimately.
Said continuously.
"Brother Dong's words are serious! Now we are both prosperous and devastated. How could Fengxian think so!"
Lu Bu thought about it, so he waved his hand in reply, pretending to be trusting, and then continued: "Then Feng Xian will lead the army one step ahead and wait for Brother Dong to arrive, so that we can participate in the grand event and create glory together!"
"Fengxian..."
Dong Zhuo saw Lu Bu's thoughts at a glance, thought about it and shouted, and then suggested:
"You and I are closely related in destiny. I think Fengxian already knows it! I have no heirs, so why not become father and son in public. In this way, we will become one, not only the country we are about to get, but also the two elites in front of us, who will return immediately
How about I take everything from you and I just want to concentrate on pursuing the great road?"
"What?" Lu Bu's expression froze, he stared and exclaimed.
However, I have to admit that Lu Bu was extremely surprised, but his heart was quite excited, moving, and throbbing.
