In the third year of Guanghe's reign, in the third year after the rebellion of Xiliang rebels Bian Zhang and Han Sui colluded with the Qiang people and was suppressed, the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Dongyi, Shanyue and other foreign tribes were restless. The emperor was unable to mobilize troops, so he ordered various prefectures and counties to Sir, be on your own alert.
At this time, Shi Changshi came forward and said that this strange behavior of the foreign tribe was due to a plan in the Central Plains. The main culprit was the Taiping Taoist disciples who had spread the Taoist sect to various parts of the Kyushu.
The emperor believed it and ordered Shi Chang to send people to thoroughly investigate the Taiping Road in various places. Unexpectedly, the Taiping Road in Liangzhou brazenly robbed prisoners, the Taiping Road in Qingzhou attacked the county, the Taiping Road in Xuzhou colluded with pirates, the Taiping Road in Youzhou assisted Wuhuan in raiding the governor, and Julu in Jizhou The general altar completely refused to allow officials to approach.
What's more, several people with unknown origins sneaked into Luoyang and tried to assassinate Shi Changshi. The emperor was furious and ordered Luoyang to impose martial law to arrest the assassins. He also issued an edict to declare the Taiping Dao as a treason, and ordered all state governments to vigorously arrest and arrest them.
No matter how much the "facts" published by the imperial court differ from the real "facts" or what unknown things there are, it cannot change the fact that Taiping Road will disappear from the public eye.
As for those useful talisman waters? Of course the government sells them. As for where they come from, if you don’t want to be regarded as a remnant of the Taiping Party, it’s better not to ask.
Luoyang, inside the Shanhe Sheji Map.
"Master, why is this 'Sword Master' so crazy?" Zhao Yun asked Tong Yuan, "It is hard for me to imagine that someone of the same ability and level, such as Master, would do so much for an emperor who is not considered a wise man."
It had been two years since he went to Liangzhou to destroy the conspiracy of the Shi Changshi to collude with the Huns. Zhao Yun had grown from a still immature boy to a boy who seemed reliable enough.
At least, he is no longer afraid of those "heroic spirits" who act as usual in the "Mountain and River Society Map".
After the master and apprentice reunited in Luoyang "in the picture", although Tong Yuan thought that his ability was not enough to master the "dragon gallbladder" and did not deliver the weapon, he gave him a brand new set of light silver armor.
"Haha, does Zilong know that 'Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty'?" Tong Yuan did not answer, but brought up another topic.
"I know it. It is said that it was because the pseudo-dynasty established by this pseudo-emperor made heaven angry, so it gave Emperor Guangwu the 'unparalleled' power with a meteorite, allowing him to destroy the pseudo-dynasty in one fell swoop." Zhao Yun didn't know what the master was asking, so he Answer according to what ordinary people know.
"According to records, before Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, there were also extraordinary people. Although they were not as many as the 'unparalleled generals' today, nor were they happy to be born, they were able to soar in the clouds and ride on the mist, move mountains and fill the sea, draw rivers to form land, and bring the dead back to life. But , but all disappeared after Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty," Tong Yuan said. "My teacher guessed that they were probably like Wang Yue, who tied their existence to the fate of the country, and then disappeared with the interruption of the Han Dynasty."
"Is that why the Sword Master will...wait?" Zhao Yun was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly looked around in surprise: "Is the ability of those people similar to this 'Mountains and Rivers Society Map'?"
Although the master answered his question about why the sword master wanted to protect the current emperor, he seemed to have inadvertently revealed a big secret - maybe not a secret?
"Otherwise, why do you think Wei Shi and Zhang Jiao would settle down and live in the 'world' controlled by her for several years?" Tong Yuan said: "Wang Yue's 'mark in the sky' was probably a test. If Wei Shi,
Zhang Jiao, or another 'immortal' cannot take that sword head-on."
"This..." Zhao Yun's mind was racing and he wanted to understand many things.
For example, why did Wang Yue immediately cultivate "Ten Constant Attendants" after using that sword? Such "unparalleled eunuchs" who, although causing public resentment, were very useful in maintaining the imperial power.
For example, why did the "fairy" spread the word about Fu Shui to save people, spread out the "Mountain and River Sheji Map" to collect the "killed" people in various places, and even deliberately protect extraordinary people like Tong Yuan and Zhang Jiao?
Zuo Ci did not care about Ji and Zuo Ci's many offenses.
Because Han unification is about to end again.
Wang Yue wanted to try his best to delay its arrival, while Lin Haoxianzi tried to make the sacrifices caused in this "end" process as small as possible.
As for the dispute between Tong Yuan and Zhang Jiao, it is not so much an improvement opinion on the current court's practices as it is a debate on how the "next court" should govern.
And asking himself to find the right strategy to govern the world is to prevent him from taking the wrong path and becoming the unscrupulous person Wang Yue is now.
"Thank you, Master, for your guidance." Zhao Yun bowed deeply and solemnly, "Zilong knows what to do."
"It should be, um, haha..." Tong Yuan responded in a daze.
————
Although he said he "knows what to do", there is no need to change what Zhao Yun is currently doing, which is to continue to rescue the Taiping Dao "assassins" trapped in Luoyang under martial law.
It was indeed the combined force of Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun that blocked Wang Yue's sword attack on the assassin, but it was the blow from the "Luo Shen" sickle that really worked.
Tong Yuan and Wang Yue had been "discussing" in the air for two years. There was sufficient evidence to prove that these assassins were not arranged by him, so Wang Yue's investigation direction went towards the power of "Luo Shen".
But the sickle of "Luoshen" only prevented the assassin's death. The power to throw him away did not know where came from the "Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map" itself. Zhao Yun relied on his familiarity with the "Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map" to even feel it.
He was first thrown far to the east extreme, and then bounced back to the same distance in the northeast. Following this, Wang Yue left Luoyang and circled around for several times before returning without success.
At this time, there were four Luoyang lieutenants who were under the orders of the Shi Changshi and "casual knights" whose functions were similar to the imperial army. They were searching for possible hiding places of assassins in Luoyang City. However, those Shi Changshi did not dare to offend openly, such as Sangong.
, most of the mansions of Jiuqing and old people who had held these positions asked Queen He to send "Diao Chan" to quietly investigate.
There are naturally very few real "assassins", but there are many people who were Taiping Taoists or who sympathized with them. In this high-profile search by the Ten Permanent Attendants, almost all of the people captured were of this type.
Because the emperor's anger has not subsided, those Shi Changshi's men only need to label the captured person as "having harbored an assassin", and no one will listen even if they complain. At this time, it is Zhao Yun and those who don't care about Shi Chang.
An opportunity for the powerful rangers to become active.
Zhao Yun naturally has no problem dealing with those scattered cavalry or forbidden troops. Occasionally, he can kill them as a last resort - anyway, he just becomes stupid and moves to the "Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map".
But those big sisters in black, also known as "Diao Chan", are very difficult to deal with. Although Zhao Yun never fails to rescue the Taiping Taoist disciples who are being chased by them, in the blink of an eye, the person being chased will become himself. Even if he uses
It was useless to scare them with gentian. They would shake their bodies and let Zhao Yun "stab him through", so every encounter would end with Zhao Yun running away.
Even if he couldn't use weapons taller than himself when he was young, he has never wanted to grow up as fast as he does now. It would be best if he could grow more ferocious and scary.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... Dad..."
"Don't cry, come with me."
While walking through the northern part of Luoyang where many high-ranking officials gathered, Zhao Yun overheard words with a very familiar pattern. He stopped and looked in the direction of the sound. As expected, he saw "Diao Chan" dressed in black and being captured.
She was holding her hand, a crying girl about ten years old, wearing a goose yellow skirt.
It was obvious that the girl's family was harboring Taiping Taoists. "Diao Chan" had the evidence but couldn't find where it was, so he planned to use their little daughter as a threat.
Because Zhao Yun is always chased by "Diao Chan", he doesn't care much about ordinary catching people, but he has to take care of this kind of threatening his family with children... If it doesn't work, he will knock this "Diao Chan" unconscious
alright.
"Let that girl go!" Zhao Yun suddenly opened a crack in the ground and jumped out from the Mountains and Rivers State Map to stop the two of them.
The "Diao Chan" in black and the girl in yellow who was being led by her were both stunned.
"Didn't you hear that girl crying? She's looking for her father," Zhao Yun said righteously, "What's the use of threatening a child when you can't find someone?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...I can't find my father..." After hearing Zhao Yun's words, the girl who was originally in a daze started crying again.
"Mind your own business and get out of the way." This "Diao Chan" did not cover her face with a black scarf like the ones Zhao Yun usually saw. Instead, she revealed a face that was still very beautiful and delicate even though it had some age.
Wearing black clothes is not a night dress but a palace dress. It is just like randomly picking out a black dress among many dresses just to facilitate night movement.
"No, let the girl go first." Although Zhao Yun was a little lucky that the other party was not interested in him, he did not let go of the silver gun.
"The young silver gun player who has become famous in Luoyang recently turned out to be a fool with bad eyesight." "Diao Chan" sighed, reached for her waist, and untied a wooden block-like object.
Then, under Zhao Yun's surprised gaze, "Diao Chan" quickly unfolded the "wooden blocks", combined them, put strings on them, and finally "transformed" them into a konghou.
"Wait... you are not 'Diao Chan', I remember..." Ever since the block of wood began to deform, Zhao Yun felt that some dusty memories were beginning to loosen, and they were the kind that came with danger warnings.
Oops... isn't this right behind Mr. Cai Yong's house? Luoyang is in chaos at this time, and his daughter sneaking in to take Mr. Cai away is not the right intention?
The eldest daughter likes to hit people with the konghou, but the younger daughter... her favorite person is Cao Cao's subordinate Dian Wei... he is "A Dian" not "A Dad"!
"It's too late." Before Zhao Yun could think clearly, the woman had already stepped in front of him holding the harp, and then smashed it down without hesitation.
"Boom--" Where the harpoon fell, a large pit appeared on the ground, and the young silver gun general had disappeared.
"Hmph, I've made a note of this account of mistaken identity." Cai Wan picked up the combined konghou and began to dismantle it.
"Sister, who is that beautiful little brother?" Cai Yan stopped crying and looked at the place where Zhao Yun disappeared.
