Chapter three hundred and seventy-ninth false emperor
Luoyang City
There is a curfew in the city, and there are armored soldiers standing at the entrances of important streets. The doors of every house are closed tightly. From time to time, armored soldiers patrol along the walls meticulously. There is a chill in the silence. The patrols in the inner city and the outer city have been strengthened a lot.
There was an invisible tense atmosphere.
A few days ago, there were various rumors in various parts of the earth. People on the earth returned silently and affected the course of the world in their own way.
In the streets and alleys, watchmen carried small lanterns and beat gongs or clappers. In the mansions, there were people singing, dancing, drinking, and singing softly.
Diao Chan looked at the sky. There were fires not far away from time to time, but no screams could be heard. But from time to time, flocks of night birds flew up in the sky, hovering in the sky and making sad calls. This was not a good omen, and she couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.
"Has the information come?" She turned around and asked.
"Here we come," said a middle-aged man. He was a man in his late fifties, with a medium build, some snow-white temples, but bright eyes. He quickly took a step forward, cupped his hand, and presented the news.
After reading it, Diao Chan was very satisfied and nodded frequently.
Changes in the soil, especially information changes, are the most prominent. Major war news is required by each company to be grasped as soon as possible. It is time to compete in speed.
Diao Chan knew that her lord relied on the two wives of Mi Gan to study the interrogation disk two years in advance in Xiatu, and heard that the governor and Yu Fan's family now have it, but the aura of Xiatu is different from that on the ground, and the communication involves extremely subtle levels.
It is developed and adjusted by real people or through the cooperation of a large number of technicians.
It has great limitations. Even other people on earth do not have the ability to develop it on their own. They all use the traditional method of combining fast horses and homing pigeons.
I don’t have any corresponding Tao Dharma inquiry chart in this regard.
But the existing communication is also very fast.
The plank road built in the Qin Dynasty (Shu), the straight road going north to the Jiuyuan Great Wall (ancient version of military highway), Jiutiao Chi Road (ancient version of national highway), track network (ancient version of railway network, rammed earth roadbed, horizontal sleepers, and long hardwood rails
Instead of rail paving, carriages with the same wheelbase were used to pass, which was historically known as "cars on the same track"... A vast road network with Guanzhong as the core was established, as well as a post station communication system attached to it.
The Han Dynasty inherited the roads and post network of the Qin Dynasty, and only moved the core eastward to Luoyang. The transportation in the Central Plains is very convenient. The post communication system is still in the hands of Luoyang, and messages can be transmitted directly through Chidao Road in Hulao Pass.
.
Diao Chan was raised from a young age and was very familiar with the history of the imperial court in terms of women's affairs and political affairs, so it was not surprising that Dong Zhuo would receive information.
Queen Mother He "disappeared" and the news of Xu Rong's death in battle reached Luoyang within two days. Of course, this was blocked news, but the network of wives that Diao Chan had run over the past two years was almost pervasive, and the original palace bans of the northern and southern palaces were even more leaky.
Like a sieve, I got the news within an hour.
Dong Zhuo was furious, probably feeling a deep chill, and adopted a high-pressure policy internally. At the same time, in order to relieve the pressure on the soldiers of the Xiliang Army and avoid bombing the camp, he began to send troops to loot some counties in Luoyang. The residents in the Sili area were in turmoil.
"What will this thief do to the outside world?" Diao Chan thought with a frown, and this kind of looting was simply a rogue bandit style. Did something happen within Dong Zhuo's army?
"Miss, I'm here to pay you a visit." The maid came over and whispered.
Diao Chan was startled, and after a few seconds, she realized that this was not referring to Ye Qing, but to the original Wang Yun. She asked a few questions and found out that it was Wang Yun who had sent a message through Zhang Liao's channel, saying that she had something urgent to contact her lord.
Diao Chan did not choose the main village, but a safe branch village outside the city. She understood the principle of three cunning rabbits.
The conversation was held in the evening, when Luoyang was relatively lively, so it was easy to blend in with the crowd, and the shadows of the night made it easier to hide, and she was not afraid of the moonlight.
She took a breath, thought about it, and said to the maid Ying'er: "We need to inform General Zhang Wenyuan about this matter. You can go there in person."
"Isn't the visible person the master?" Ying'er was startled.
This kind of notification is somewhat risky now, but at that time the patriarchal system was strict. Once you recognize your legitimate daughter, you are your legitimate daughter. Do you have to be careful about this?
Diao Chan's eyes were calm and she said calmly: "I know he is the master - go and find out."
"Yes" Ying'er didn't dare to ask any more questions and left in a hurry.
Seeing her leaving, Diao Chan sighed silently, squatted down and sat down, looking at the frightened birds in the night sky, feeling a sudden sadness in her heart.
While I was thinking about it, I heard the faint sound of plucking a zither and tuning strings in the distance, and sighed again for a long time.
In fact, due to the pressure of working underground, she rarely trusts people now. She even sets up a magic circle when she sleeps. In her dreams, she clutches the five jade talismans left by her lord - each talisman corresponds to one of the five elements.
Although the escape distance is only a pitiful ten meters, it can save lives at critical moments.
This exquisite five-color bracelet was tied to her hand.
Being able to seal off all the five elements, except for the space-time barrier, can only be achieved by the Fairy Garden, which is not within her scope of consideration.
"I really hope that things have happened in Luoyang and that I can return to my lord as soon as possible..." she thought, recalling the promise here to pick her up in person. Or could she really break out of the tiger prison and come to Luoyang in time?
Holding the five-color bracelet, she sat alone in the dark, in a daze.
After a while, she felt that the moon was about to rise, so she opened the window and the first ray of moonlight blended into her body silently, covering her skin with a layer of light silver, as if the moonlight gave birth to an elf.
When the agreed time came, Diao Chan quickly arrived at Pianzhuang.
This village only has two hectares of farmland (200 acres), which is considered heavenly to the tenants, but it is inconspicuous in the entire Luoyang area and will not attract anyone's attention.
A group of soldiers entered silently and guarded the key points.
There are ten elite infantrymen and five Changshui Camp sharpshooters accompanying him. This kind of force, combined with Diao Chan's own martial arts, is enough to last for a period of time in various emergencies.
Throughout Luoyang, Diao Chan was afraid that Dong Zhuojun might be connected with the Taiping Religion.
Fortunately, when Wang Yun arrived, he was obviously not being followed.
He is a very vigilant person who can even be said to be as cunning as a fox. From this point of view, the father and daughter are of the same origin, not by blood, but by education and influence from childhood.
In the evening breeze, Diao Chan met him in the courtyard with a calm attitude. She stood up and bowed: "Father."
Wang Yun was slightly startled when he saw her. He almost couldn't recognize her daughter. He secretly sighed that she was getting more and more beautiful. At this time, he just nodded: "So many things have happened in the past two years. Ever since the heroes left Beijing, Dong Zhuo has become the most powerful one."
, especially after Northern Army Infantry Battalion Zhang Liao and Shesheng Battalion Liu Biao defected to Dong Zhuo... Of course, looking at it now..."
Diao Chan looked at him calmly. Although she was very old, her face was fair and thin, but she had a calm and resolute air.
This old man has hardly changed, she is still so stubborn at heart...but she has changed.
She has not forgotten the great righteousness of the old man in educating her, and has not lost her admiration for the old man, but she has seen too many things that are difficult to express, far beyond the scope of the old man's understanding.
These words sounded as if they were in a dream.
Listen, it's just a smile. To continue her tribe, she needs to have power, and to have power, she needs to follow the master.
After listening to this, she said: "General Wen Yuan and General Jing Sheng are loyal to the emperor and the queen mother, not to the family, so there is no betrayal."
"I know, I know, you are really influenced by him..." Wang Yun was startled, stopped talking, shook his head and sighed, no longer arguing, just staring into his daughter's eyes: "I want to ask a question - Dong Zhuo's poison
Regarding the matter of killing the young emperor, there was chaos on the night of March 3rd. Several families were involved in the killing, but the young emperor was still dead. I can't say anything about this, and I won't ask."
"That night, Zhao Zilong rode alone and hijacked the Queen Mother out of the palace. This actually saved the Queen Mother's life. Now that I have heard secretly that the Queen Mother has arrived in Xuchang, she is fine. As a minister, I should be celebrating."
"No matter how your current lord plots, it is still better than being killed by Thief Dong... I have nothing to say.
"I just want to ask one thing." Wang Yun's eyes sharpened and he stared at her.
"First of all, Emperor Xian fell to his death from a building. There are different opinions, but there is no need for Thief Dong to do this. Who is this? Does your lord have an opinion?"
"Also, just because the Queen Mother is missing, the Sixth Seal of the Emperor and the Queen's Seal are also missing, do you know?
Wang Yun asked, feeling an invisible pressure when he said these words.
Diao Chan shook her head. If she had been in a cold sweat before, she didn't seem to notice it at this time - Wang Yun knew all these things. This man was accomplished and had a criminal record in high-level serial conspiracy. At this moment, she
After pondering for a while, he answered cautiously: "The two emperors passed away one after another, and the emperor's six seals are in the hands of the queen mother. Is there anything objectionable about this?
"The Jade Seal of the State is even higher than the Six Seals of the Emperor. If my lord is interested, why not take the Jade Seal of the State?" Diao Chan asked calmly.
The Jade Seal of the State is different from the Six Seals of the Emperor. The Six Seals of the Emperor can be carved, but the Jade Seal of the State is more symbolic of destiny.
After hearing this, Wang Yun thought about it, his expression relaxed a little, and asked: "What about the matter of offering sacrifice to the emperor?"
Diao Chan was surprised by his question, but her expression seemed to be smiling and she said: "Father, why are you asking me this? You should ask Thief Dong, Duke Cao, or the Yuan family."
After saying this, Wang Yun fell silent. What she said was very simple. In terms of suspicion, these families were more suspicious than her own lord.
Wang Yun knew that he would not get an answer if he continued to ask, and the suspicion of Cao Cao in history was indeed very high... Without it, he would have been a completely different person, and this person acted unscrupulously in Yanzhou, treating the imperial court as if it were nothing, and openly killed him.
He was appointed as the governor of the imperial court.
Thinking of this, Wang Yun couldn't help but sigh.
"Let's leave it at that. I believe you are telling the truth, but today..."
Diao Chan interrupted him at this time and said quietly: "Father, please be careful. Dong and his thieves killed the Holy One. How can we establish an emperor? The Holy One is not here, and the Queen Mother is respected, and there is no permission from the Queen Mother - this is a false emperor."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene suddenly turned cold, and Wang Yun couldn't help but turn pale.
