"First of all... there is a very important piece of information. I hope you can be mentally prepared."
There was no difference in Guan Yu's expression, but his tone was extremely heavy, which doubled the pressure on everyone's hearts.
"The Emperor...may be gone..."
"The emperor in the Xudu Palace is a puppet introduced by Cao Cao...but he has a similar image to the emperor. An official from the court told me a fact through my eyes...It has been a long time since the emperor last went to court.
Two full years... You should know that after Red Cliff, at the same time as the Battle of Xiangyang occurred, there was also a crisis in Cao Cao's rear."
"Han Sui...Zhang Lu..."
Zhuge Liang frowned and said... He already knew the time Guan Yu mentioned.
"Yes... Han Sui joined forces with Zhang Lu to attack Chang'an, hoping to take advantage of Cao Cao's decline and reap the benefits. However, due to the resistance of Zhong Yao, Ma Chao, Ma Teng and others, the siege of Chang'an was quickly lifted.
, Han Sui was arrested, and Zhang Lu ended up with his body and head missing."
"It's just... do you know why Han Sui, who is clearly a brother-in-law with Ma Teng, ignored Ma Teng's situation of still being with the emperor and led the Xiliang cavalry to rebel? Don't you wonder about this?"
Guan Yu asked, and many people looked at each other. In fact, most of the people present were the subordinates Liu Bei had conquered from Jingnan after the Battle of Xiangyang. They were a group outside the battlefield, and the intelligence
Being closed-minded and not knowing these situations is understandable.
However, as the core members of Liu Bei's think tank, Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Meng Da, Jian Yong, Mi Zhu, Sun Qian and others all looked at their expressions as knowingly.
"Judging from the respective situations of Zhang Lu and Han Sui at that time, they were definitely not the ones to take the initiative to attack Chang'an, especially Zhang Lu, who was at odds with Liu Zhang. He should have a better relationship with Chang'an than attack Chang'an.
…Yun Chang, are you saying there is someone behind this?"
Zhuge Liang briefly talked about the situation of Zhang Lu and Han Sui at that time, and basically came to the conclusion that the rebellion of these two people was an abnormality. He also quickly deduced the meaning of Guan Yu's next hint.
"Yes... the news... comes from... Taiwei Yang."
"Lieutenant Yang? You are talking about the one..."
"Hmm... Is it actually the news revealed by Taiwei Yang? I heard that Taiwei was imprisoned back then. If not for the help of noble people, he might not be able to get out of prison alive - is Taiwei still strong now?"
Fazheng opened his mouth slightly, frowned and expressed his shock.
Yes, Yang Biao is a very important person in the eyes of many people who are loyal to the Han Dynasty. They even say that the reason why there are still people in the world who are willing to fight for Liu Xie is probably because the banner of Yang Biao still exists.
.
When he was imprisoned, many people were worried about this. Many people cursed Cao Cao, saying that he attempted to murder the country's officials and was guilty of an unforgivable crime. He was the biggest traitor in the Han Dynasty.
So when Yang Biao was finally released from prison, the result was extremely exciting for those who loved the Han Dynasty in the world. They felt that it was because of their united strength that they put pressure on Cao Cao and forced him to release Yang Biao.
As long as Yang Biao is not dead, there is still hope for the Han Dynasty.
In fact... they had no idea that after that, Yang Biao had actually...
"Well... the Taiwei is naturally very tough, and his son Yang Xiu seems to have the intention to inherit his father's legacy... The Taiwei asked Yang Xiu to tell this matter to my informant in Xudu..."
"Of course...he only had time to send back this piece of news..."
When it comes to serious topics, everyone consciously mourns for such warriors who can devote themselves to the righteousness.
"Back then...the main messenger behind the Chang'an rebellion..."
"It's..."
Guan Yu's words became slower and slower. Many of us were still immersed in the so-called good news of Yang Biao and Yang Xiu, father and son, but Zhuge Liang had already noticed the anger in Guan Yu's expression...
"No...wait a minute..."
The words... were not spoken after all. Maybe Zhuge Liang also hesitated. He hesitated. What if the news Guan Yu said was some useful information that was worthy of discussion?
But after the facts were laid before his eyes, even Zhuge Liang fell silent.
"It is the emperor himself."
"Varied…"
"The emperor directed and staged the siege of Chang'an. He promised Zhang Lu and Han Sui that after he captured Chang'an, he would be named the Lord of Chang'an from now on. At the same time, he also designed Han Sui to instigate rebellion against the Ma Chao brothers who were guarding Chang'an at that time.
This is to lure Ma Teng, so that he can set up an ambush halfway and kill Ma Teng."
"Of course, this plan was finally resolved by someone...that person...strategist...you should be able to think of it."
Zhuge Liang was speechless. His mouth was open, but he could only make dry breathing sounds in his throat.
Yi Xiaotian…
"I can't blame...I can't blame that time...That Yi Xiaotian didn't show up until we returned from Xiangyang after the defeat...It turns out that he even left to go to Chang'an at that critical moment, right?"
When Zhuge Liang spoke, his voice trembled. Fa Zheng, Pang Tong and others looked at him with concern.
But...no one can help him.
Because everyone heard the despair from Zhuge Liang's mouth.
Why despair?
He thought he was completely defeated in the head-on confrontation with Yi Xiaotian. This... was because his and Zhou Yu's skills were inferior to others. They had admitted that they were slightly inferior to Yi Xiaotian. If they were defeated head-on... that would be a defeat. From now on, they would still be defeated.
There's a chance, isn't there?
But... what Zhuge Liang is paying attention to now is not that Liu Xie actually instigated such a dangerous plot that may almost repeat the mistakes of Dong Zhuo's rebellion, but that he discovered... the enemy he thought he had defeated head-on...
He actually beat them so badly when he was not paying attention to Chang'an at that time.
The implication is that the other party doesn't take him seriously at all...
Zhuge Liang is going crazy...
Of course, these are all Zhuge Liang's own imagination.
If there is really a chance for Yi Xiaotian to explain to Zhuge Liang face to face, he will definitely tell Zhuge Liang that he did not take care of both sides at that time and finally resolved the crisis. It can only be said that he was lucky... He definitely did not mean to look down on Zhuge Liang——
But obviously, none of them have this opportunity.
At this time, Pang Tong still knew what to do.
He slowly walked to Zhuge Liang, who was holding his head and was about to collapse, put his hands on his shoulders, and stared at Zhuge Liang's dilated pupils with extremely sincere eyes:
"Kong Ming... calm down. There is no invincible enemy in this world. You just realize the gap between you... And I am here just for this. Promise me... in front of this person, let go of your so-called
Is it okay to be proud? You...you and I, we are all newborn children in front of him. Even if we are ignored by him, it should not be the reason for our despair now."
Pang Tong's words one after another seemed to break through the barriers in Zhuge Liang's heart at this moment. When everyone was a little panicked, Zhuge Liang actually slowly calmed down.
Everyone was shocked by this scene, while Fazheng and others were excited by this scene.
