The snowflakes fall one after another, like sprinkled salt, which is a characteristic of northern snowflakes. If it is not like catkins, it would be a bit divorced from reality.
And under this sky full of salt grains, Taiwei Liu Yu led a group of important ministers to leave the Chancellor's Desk and hurriedly followed the Chancellor Yang Mi to the front hall of Weiyang Palace. Seeing that the Tiger Guards along the way showed no intention of blocking him, it made him even more heartbroken.
Unbearable worry!
When they arrived at the front hall, they suddenly stopped in front of the hall, because there were already another minister Yang Zan, ministers Yang Qi, Yang Zhong, Tingwei Zhou Zhong, the new Youzhonglang general Li Shao, and Huangmen.
Minister Ding Chong and many others were waiting here.
Ding Chong is a local friend of Cao Cao, Zhou Zhong must have a close relationship with Liu Bei, Li Shao is a speculator, and he has just lost his post as Zhijinwu. These are all expected... Only the Huayin Yang family, as
This century-old pillar of the imperial court has always been highly used after the imperial court moved westward, but this time all five important ministers in Chang'an appeared here.
When things got to this point, it was already obvious that the Hongnong Yang family, the most famous family in Kansai, was leading this matter, and Wang Yun was at most a co-conspirator.
Liu Yu stopped in front of the palace, letting the salt-like snow paintings on his head hit his face, but he just turned back to look at Sikong Yang Biao... His eyes were almost full of disappointment.
Others who made similar moves were Situ Zhao Qian, Admonishment Doctor Zhong Shao, and Guanglu Doctor Huang Wan, but the emotions in the eyes of these three were not so clear.
On the steps in front of the front hall of Weiyang Palace, Yang Biao looked at Liu Yu and the other Han Dynasty ministers for a long time without fear, but no one who had been waiting here said a word.
No one blamed anyone, and no one said anything, because at their level, it can only be said to be a matter of political stance, and it cannot be called who betrayed whom, nor who is who.
To Liu Yu, Yang Biao was only radical; to Yang Biao, Liu Yu was only conservative.
There are perhaps only two people in the world who are truly qualified to criticize these people from a high position, one is famous and the other is real, and one of them is in the palace.
Liu Yu also knew in his heart that after looking at Yang Biao for a long time, he turned around and slowly walked into the front hall of Weiyang Palace under the gaze of all the Han Dynasty ministers.
Up to this point, the sky is getting brighter and the snowflakes are getting denser.
"Captain!" The emperor, who was only sixteen years old this year, was sitting on the dragon chair. When he saw Liu Yu entering, he couldn't wait to stand up, but he stopped in front of the steps beside Jingze, the tiger and the middle man.
It was only then that Liu Yu noticed that this young emperor, who was still young and extremely thin, was actually wearing the full set of crowns from his hair-tying ceremony!
Twelve emperor crowns, twelve gold medal robes, jade belts around the waist, and six-color emperor seals hanging from the bosom.
This decoration, especially the six emperor's seals tied with six colors of ribbons, were hung up by Liu Yu himself... Since the jade seals passed down to the country have not been found so far, these six emperor's seals are particularly precious.
Liu Bo'an knew these things better than anyone else... At that time, he only felt that the emperor was smart and wise, and his hair had been tied up. Maybe he could survive until the emperor came of age in the future.
But now, almost a year later, he felt that the other party was too young.
"Captain." The young emperor stood under the jade steps, his face flushed, as if he was expecting something in his heart.
Liu Yu wanted to say something harsh, but when he saw the other party acting like this, he couldn't bear it. He stepped forward, saluted first, and then stood up and asked slowly and calmly: "Your Majesty, I want to ask your Majesty three things. One of them is
, can a military report of unknown origin really be used to conclude that General Wei is dead? Secondly, to put it another way, even if your Majesty re-captures Chang'an City today, what's the use? What will happen in the future?
Do you have a long-term plan? Thirdly, can you really trust the people around your majesty today and those who advise your majesty to do this?"
The young emperor, or Liu Xie, who was wearing the emperor's crown, couldn't help but feel sad for a moment when he saw Liu Yu's clear attitude. However, after a while, he still stood there holding the ceremonial sword in his waist and facing each other: "The captain has three questions.
Naturally, I have three answers. First, I know that the military report is false, because the military report was originally forged by me by General Hu Ben Zhonglang... The original text is that thousands of elk accidentally lost their way in the fog and ran into it.
In General Wei's camp, there were many captures in the army. This was written by General Wei's subordinates in the name of good omen, and I asked him to make a slight change just because I wanted to use it to meet the Taiwei and other important ministers.
"
Liu Yu was stunned for a moment.
"Second." Liu Xie continued to stand there and said in a slightly childish voice. "I know very well that even if Chang'an City can be taken, it will definitely be defeated by Sizhou Cheng Pu and General Wei of Wudu.
They attacked from both sides and easily recaptured it. Even General Hu Ben Zhonglang had already said something. The most he could do was ask his troops to get out of the way and let me out of the palace, but he could never let them confront General Wei..."
Following Liu Xie's words, the newly-entered ministers couldn't help but turn their attention to Jingze, who was standing proudly beside Liu Xie with a knife in his hand. This person was really suspicious, but he seemed to be blameless because of the matters in people's hearts.
Too complicated.
There is no need to think about it. If Liu Yu and others question him, he will definitely be able to find no less than three irrefutable reasons:
He didn't want to ruin his uncle's reputation as a loyal man; he was born in Sanfu, and General Wei's new policies had affected him; he had been in trouble for many years, and General Wei had abandoned him, or he had been influenced by his fellow villagers in Sanfu and the emperor himself over the years, etc.
etc……
"So I have never expected to control Chang'an for long-term purposes." In my ears, the emperor is still facing each other seriously. "Taiwei, as early as a few years ago, in the huge Hebei Jiuzhou, except for the Weiyang Palace on Longshou Plain,
How can there be any land left to establish a body outside? Now, with General Wei annexing Liangzang, I am afraid that even this inch of land cannot be saved..."
"So your Majesty wants to go east to the Central Plains and use Cao Liu's power to revive him?" Liu Yu woke up almost instantly, but immediately became angry and couldn't control it. He pointed at Zhou Zhong and Ding Chong standing behind him and asked. "
Your Majesty! The Gongsun family cannot be relied upon, how can Cao and Liu be relied upon?! Your Majesty, have you ever seen Cao Cao's behavior when he was young? Everything is worse than General Wei, only dissoluteness can win. Today, General Wei is in power and domineering, but once Cao Cao gains power, I'm afraid
Even more domineering! Do you think that if you were replaced by Cao Cao, you would not kill Dong and Fu? I am afraid that even your two Wang cousins will not be able to escape. As for Liu Bei...does your Majesty really think that the Liu clan can be expected?"
Liu Xie was reprimanded, and when he heard about King Dong Fu, his eyes turned red, but he still raised his sword and pursed his lips in response, not even saying "I": "Captain, now that things have happened, I have already
Without the mother clan, if the wife clan no longer relies on the clan, who will they rely on? Just like your third question, you said that the people in this palace today may not be trustworthy, but if I don’t trust them, who can I trust? Just like Tai
Lieutenant, if it weren’t for the fact that Taiwei is a member of the clan, why would I be waiting here specially to ask you to come with me?"
At the end of the story, Liu Xie almost burst into tears, but he just managed to hold it back.
Liu Yu also became increasingly depressed and found it difficult to defend himself.
At this moment, Yang Biao slowly stepped forward and spoke formally: "Mr. Liu, now that the matter has come to a point, the emperor has decided to leave. As a minister, the only choice is whether to obey or not."
"I serve as an assistant to the clan, and it is not up to you to decide whether the emperor goes or not." Liu Yu turned around unceremoniously. "Going eastward to the Central Plains is not beneficial to the overall situation of the Han Dynasty, but it is too risky. So not only do I not obey, but I also
No!"
"Lieutenant, this is what the Supreme Being himself meant!" Yang Biao also became serious.
"The Supreme Being is only sixteen years old this year."
"You can become a country at the age of sixteen!"
"The young emperor was killed by poison. There is only one Supreme in the royal family's immediate branch. If the Supreme is in trouble along the way, the imperial line will be cut off!"
"That's why we have to move quickly now. If we leave now, who dares to touch the Supreme Being?!" Yang Biao took a step forward and shouted sharply. "Gongsun Xun is thousands of miles apart, and even Gongsun Zan, who is so domineering, dare not touch the ministers without permission.
Who dares to touch the Supreme?! It’s Gongsun Xun in front of him. How dare he, who claims to be a minister of the Han Dynasty, to kill the king?! Emperor Ling is guilty, what is the crime of the Supreme? What can he do to kill the king without fear of losing people’s hearts?!"
Liu Yu was immediately speechless.
Regicide!
These two words are an absolutely unbearable moral stain for traditional Confucian scholars... Jun father, Jun father, this is where things are ridiculous. Anyone who has seen Liu Xie with their own eyes knows that he is only sixteen years old.
He is a child, but the whole world knows that he is the king and father of the whole world!
That's right, this young man standing on the Jade Majesty, who is obviously immature to the extreme and who still sheds tears after being scolded by Liu Yu, is actually the legal father of Liu Yu and Gongsun Xun. He is the father of Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Liu Biao.
, the king-father of Liu Yan, Sun Ce, Lu Bu, Shi Xie, and Zhang Lu is also the king-father of Yang Biao. He is also the king-father of everyone in the palace today, and the king-father of all the people in the world... He is the king and father of the world.
So what about Gongsun Xun? If he really kills this young man, then he, General Wei, will be regarded as a regicide beast in the eyes of the world!
Maybe the might and virtue of the Han Dynasty has indeed reached the point where it is like a candle in the wind, but if it is really done, the nature of the matter will not change. Regicide is regicide! In an era when etiquette was lost in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhao Dun was helpless
, in a passive counterattack, he used the hands of his younger brother to kill Jin Linggong, whose posthumous title was Ling. What was the result? Zhao Dun killed his king, and it was recognized by Confucianism for thousands of years.
What’s more, you are the only co-king in the world today? What’s more, your Gongsun family has been a minister of the Han Dynasty for generations? What’s more, the guilty one is the Ling Emperor, but the current Supreme Being is innocent?
How terrible is it for a politician to commit regicide?
Junfu, Junfu, he lost his father when he was young, so it’s hard to compare him with patricide. But if you imagine that General Wei suddenly killed his widowed mother in order to control the Amway, how could the world’s people follow him? Innocent
How can a person be convinced?
Even if such a person can conquer the world by then, his subordinates will all be shameless people, so how can he last long?
"You are using the Supreme's life as a shield!" Just as Liu Yu was speechless, Zhao Qian couldn't stand it any longer. "I also feel that now that General Wei is gone, no one dares to make the decision and do unbearable things.
But because of this, if there is a fool who does something stupid, General Wei can't stop him even though he is thousands of miles away? And when the time comes, he bears the name of regicide, you people who use the Supreme Being as your shield, will it be revealed in the annals of history?
Did you forget to make a note?"
Yang Biao also felt sad: "But if we can't take advantage of this opportunity to carry out this strategy, what if we guard Chang'an? When we reach the Central Plains, there are two clan princes who can rely on. If we can base ourselves in Nanyang, rely on Liu Biao, and instigate Cao Liu,
If the old capital, Guanzhong, is restored under the balance of the three families, great things may be accomplished. But staying in Chang'an is just a matter of letting the Supreme Being sit in prison and wait for the destruction of the Han Dynasty."
"Is this your plan?" Zhao Qian sneered.
"We also know that the future is bleak, but does this move have a chance of inspiring Yan Han?" Yang Qi, the servant, said seriously.
"But what if it fails?" Zhong Shao, the youngest among them, couldn't help but refuted it. "Then the Han Dynasty will not even be able to protect themselves!"
"So what if you stay here?" Yang Biao finally became more angry. "Is it like sitting and watching the Han Dynasty die silently in a dream like being poisoned by charcoal?"
"Sikong is right." During the quarrel, Liu Xie held the Emperor's Sword in his waist and managed to speak out. "Please don't criticize each other... I know that you are all loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and you are the only people the Han Dynasty relies on now.
, just a lieutenant!"
"I'm here." Liu Yu bowed his head in response.
"This is my idea!" Liu Xie's eyes became increasingly red. "I know your concerns and the risks of traveling eastward to the Central Plains. I moved the capital from Luoyang to this place that day. I...haven't I seen anything? Lian Huang
My sister-in-law was almost taken away by Xiliang soldiers! But one moment and another, the Han family's majesty was lost and they moved to the capital. But now, what else can I, the emperor, have to rely on? I have no family or relatives, and many ministers have gradually turned to their side.
In Ye's army, several old ministers who could be relied upon were withering away day by day. After the incident on Beique Street that day, the ministers in the court gradually distanced themselves from me. They stayed here just to wait for death.
It’s better to go east to Nanyang Shizu’s imperial hometown and give it a try! I don’t dare to say that I can imitate Shizu and turn the tide and reshape the country, but there is still some hope, right?”
"It's my incompetence." Liu Yu knelt down and apologized in shame. "As an assistant to the government, I can't maintain the hearts of the Supreme Being."
"I don't blame the Lieutenant." Liu Xie finally stepped down from Yubi, and then leaned over to help him. "In this situation, what can the Lieutenant do? This is why I must leave...here
There really is no place for the Han Dynasty to gain a foothold... I only have one question today, can the Taiwei follow me eastward?"
"I...can't accept it!" Liu Yu knelt on the ground and refused with almost the greatest pressure he had ever experienced in his life.
It is really the greatest pressure in my life, because this time is completely worse than the one I experienced in Youzhou before. At that time, everything could be attributed to Gongsun Xun's bloody and violent threat, but what about this time?
This time it was really a difficult decision made by Liu Yu from the bottom of his heart!
If you leave with the other party, even if you die, you will definitely leave the words "loyal minister of the Han Dynasty" in the history books; if you don't leave, it will seem greedy for life and fear of death, and he is indeed attached to his beloved concubine in his heart.
He lives a comfortable life and is nostalgic for his son who has become the governor of Western Liaoning in Youzhou.
But on the other hand, behind such an obvious moral deficit, Liu Boan believed from the bottom of his heart that traveling eastward was useless. It was not wrong, but useless. This radical attitude would actually accelerate the decline of the Han Dynasty.
Death is the only solution for all the hardships, but sometimes when responsibilities are imposed, some things are even harder than death.
"Besides, I sincerely want to persuade Your Majesty to stay!" At this thought, Liu Yu could only kowtow with all his strength.
Liu Xie was extremely disappointed and stood up slowly, but he did not blame the other party: "I understand the difficulty of the Taiwei. It's okay if you don't leave. But I have made up my mind. I also ask the Taiwei to be more tolerant to me."
Liu Yu, who was lying on the ground, was almost embarrassed to tears.
"Where are the other members of the Qing family?" Liu Xiefu looked at the others.
"I and the Taiwei have the same meaning!" Huang Wan, the Guanglu doctor who had been silent and quietly looked at Liu Yu's back, raised his voice in response. "Forgive me, the times are different and people's hearts are changeable. Perhaps your Majesty's eastward journey at this time can really help you."
There is a little relief, but once the situation changes, no matter success or failure, living between tigers and wolves without the protection of some people in Weiyang Palace and Kansai, it will become even more difficult!"
"Besides, as a member of the clan, the Taiwei cannot say anything out loud, but ministers can speak out." Situ Zhao Qian also stepped forward and faced him sternly. "Your Majesty, if the overall situation is controlled by the Gongsun family, Cao family and other princes with foreign surnames,
Maybe the Han Dynasty can survive for a while by not making mistakes, but if it falls into the hands of the Liu clan and princes, you, your Majesty, will be insignificant! Therefore, I also advise your Majesty not to go eastward."
Liu Xie was about to say something but stopped. He nodded slowly at first, then shook his head firmly: "The Qing family is unwilling to travel eastward from me. I have nothing to say, but this time I have made up my mind. As the saying goes, the arrow is on the string and has to be fired!"
The official documents at the Chancellor's desk were all forged, and I was able to influence so many members of the Qing family... If I didn't leave, I might just stay in the palace as a prisoner, but they would all be killed!"
Liu Yu and others were stunned.
A layer of fine snow had already accumulated outside the palace. Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty came out of the palace in full crown and holding his sword. The five ministers of the Yang family, plus Zhou, Ding, Jing, and Li who were co-conspirators, followed him out of the palace.
Suddenly, dozens of tiger soldiers suddenly appeared, closed the palace door, and locked several important ministers who did not want to obey inside the palace.
When the emperor flees, even if he is just traveling eastward alone, it is not such a simple matter. At most, the Tiger and Ben troops will get out of the way of Jingze and open the palace gate. They are willing to accompany Jingze and only have dozens of confidants, but they still need Yang's help.
Clan Ding's family is waiting for each other outside the city; the two beauties Dong and Fu need to follow each other. Liu Bian's widow Tang Ji is the only living 'elder' and also needs to say goodbye; the emperor's six seals can be hung on the body, but the rest will be moved when the capital is moved.
He also had to bring with him the important national treasures he had brought, such as Wang Mang’s skull, which was very meaningful in this current situation; in addition, although Yang Biao claimed that he had bribed Han Xian, the captain of Wuguan, the emperor’s majesty was
It is their biggest reliance at this time, so they still need to try their best to maintain the emperor's etiquette.
By the time I finished packing, it was already close to noon.
So Jingze came forward and deceived Liu Xie into opening the palace gate in the name of General Wei's order to ask the emperor to go west to Wudu to work for the army. Liu Xie finally got out of the first layer of cage.
But soon, as the emperor's guard of honor appeared on Beique Street, all the residents along the street saw it, which finally alarmed the pro-Gongsun forces in the city.
Jingzhao Yin Han Xuan and Chang'an Ling Han Rui arrived in panic almost at the same time, and the two sides collided head-on with the Emperor's carriage near the arsenal on Beique Street.
"The Emperor has an edict!" Jingze, fully clothed and holding his sword, stood on the side of the Emperor's carriage. Seeing that Er Han had not yet come to ask, he immediately raised his voice expressionlessly in response. "Jing Zhaoyin, Chang'an ordered us to retreat immediately.
Come down, otherwise I will kill you!"
Han Xuan was panicked, but Han Rui was furious. He immediately stood on the street in the snow and yelled: "Where is the emperor's edict? Is there a Shangshutai version? Why do you want to kill us for no reason? Jingze, you are under the guard of the general.
You are so generous, and I was ordered to protect the emperor, why did you let the emperor do anything without permission?"
"That's right." Han Xuan also reacted and tried his best to stand on the street. "General Wei issued a written notice before leaving. The emperor is young and everything should be approved by the emperor or the three princes. In the imperial system, all decrees must be printed at the Shangshutai.
, When the emperor travels, can he be accompanied by the emperor's master, and can he have permission from the Chancellor?!"
Before he finished speaking, Sikong and Imperial Master Yang Biao, Shangshu Yang Zan, and Yang Mi all flashed out from the queue of carriages at the rear. Not to mention Han Xuan, even Han Rui was shocked for a moment and screamed secretly.
But taking this opportunity, the Emperor's carriage continued eastward while the two Hans were dumbfounded, and was about to pass the arsenal. The two Hans were unable to stop it, and they were unwilling to do so. They could only follow up in a hurry while sending people to inform them.
The city gate in front. However, the city defense now belongs entirely to Gongsun Zan, and Gongsun Bogui is arrogant. In his absence, none of his subordinates dare to close the city gate without permission.
Erhan became increasingly helpless and could only go to the Hou General's Mansion to inform his family and ask them to quickly find Gongsun Zan who had not returned to Chang'an for unknown reasons. At the same time, he hurriedly found Gongsun Zan's two confidants, namely Guan Jing, the minister.
Wangmen.
When the news arrived, one of the warriors in Wangmen was still confused, but Guan Jing was a wise man and understood the seriousness of the matter. In addition, he was Gongsun Zan's bodyguard, so he had a duty, so after hearing the news
He didn't dare to neglect at all. He didn't even have time to put on his official uniform. He just put on a home-made fur coat and a dog-skin hat. Then he rode alone and went straight to the east facing Beique Street to dominate the gate, and rushed directly to the emperor's honor guard.
The former ordered the door to be closed.
However, he was on top of the Bamen, watching the snow on the ground getting thicker and thicker, and the black smoke in the city remaining as before. Even the Wangmen led dozens of soldiers to rush there, but they still couldn't wait for the emperor, and he couldn't help but panic like a dog. In the end,
, or Erhan sent someone to report, it turned out that the emperor had obviously been prepared for it. When the ceremonial guard passed the arsenal and walked to Changle Palace, it suddenly turned north, and then turned from Mingguang Palace in the north to the east, seeming to be going through Qingming Gate.
Get away.
Guan Jing lost his soul in an instant and quickly urged Wang Men to go down to the city with him and ride to the north.
But when he arrived at Qingming Gate, before he reached the gate tower, he found that the emperor's guard of honor had already arrived in front of the city gate. Guan Shiqi was really helpless, so he could only grab Wang Men and give instructions, asking the latter to urge his soldiers to ride forward, and
But he himself quietly walked along the roadside and joined the large army behind the emperor's honor guard... Yes, the emperor's actions had already alarmed the whole city at this time. I don't know how many ministers came to chase, and I don't know how many Chang'an people came to chase them.
Come and see.
When they arrived, Wang Men hid beside the door and allowed the cavalry to come forward after receiving the order. Correspondingly, the emperor and his party also seemed to notice the sudden appearance of soldiers and horses, and they were equally nervous. Seeing these dozens of horsemen wearing dog skins
Hat, it seemed that he was a close cavalryman of Gongsun Zan who was born in Youzhou, but he didn't even get off his horse and wanted to collide with Yi Jia. Jingze had no choice but to step forward and scold him harshly.
However, these soldiers laughed and cursed loudly before he could speak, pretending that they could not hear what the other party was saying.
Yang Biao and others also stepped forward and scolded them. The dozens of riders still pretended not to know. Instead, they laughed and asked if the emperor in the car was really the emperor. Could it be that some people were pretending to be?
The scene was at a stalemate for a while, and Guan Shiqi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, suddenly, as the curtain of one of the cars was torn open, Emperor Liu Xie appeared in full crown in full view of the public.
Dozens of cavalrymen were stunned immediately, and then, along with the surrounding soldiers and civilians who were watching the excitement, as well as the ministers who followed, they all turned pale and bowed down.
"Do you want to see me?" Liu Xie blushed, stood on the car with his sword in hand, and yelled loudly. "I am right here! Guan Jing, where is the king's gate?! And Jingzhao Yin Hanxuan,
Where is Chang'an's order, Han Rui? And the ministers behind me are here to see him too!"
"The Supreme Being has an edict. Please pass it on to the ministers Guan Jing, Wangmen, Jingzhao Yin Hanxuan, and Chang'an order Han Rui to come quickly!" Upon hearing this, the minister Yang Qi immediately shouted with all his strength. "The rest of the ministers also came forward to listen to the edict!"
The four of them had no choice but to go forward to pay homage, and many of the accompanying ministers also came forward and knelt down.
"The four of you are Han ministers, but you lead troops to block the emperor. Are you trying to help the thieves kill the king?" Liu Xie's eyes were red, and he pointed at the four people in the street and scolded them.
"Why did your Majesty say this?" Guan Shiqi looked at him awkwardly. "I really don't know that the Supreme Being is here..."
"Do you know at this time?" Yang Biao looked at him solemnly.
"Of course I know." Guan Jing raised his head and turned to Yang Biao, regaining some of his momentum. "But why is the Supreme here? The Supreme is not as good as the weak crown, and he leaves the capital without permission..."
"The three princes and several ministers are accompanying us. The minister of the Shangshutai is accompanying us. We have the permission of the emperor's master, and we have the tiger and brave generals to protect us. How can we go out without permission?" Yang Biao asked proudly. "When will it be the turn of the ministers to interrogate the three princes, the minister, and the emperor?"
What happened?"
Guan Jing was speechless.
"But what exactly is the Emperor going to do?" Han Ruifu raised his head again and asked. "I am concerned about the Emperor's safety, can you accompany me?"
"You all have your own duties. This matter is not your business." Jingze suddenly said slowly.
Han Rui raised his head in the snow and retorted with a sneer: "The emperor is concerned with the safety of the world, who should not be questioned? Moreover, the emperor has no permission to leave the capital, but the Taiwei and General Wei did not say it clearly. I am afraid that the emperor will be deceived by the traitor and make a huge mistake.
!”
"Who is the traitor?" Just when Yang Biao and others were about to continue to refute, under the snowflakes, the emperor suddenly spoke again. "Isn't it your general Wei who is shaking the Han Dynasty now?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone including Yang Biao began to breathe quickly.
"If it weren't for General Wei, Your Majesty would have gone to accompany the Young Emperor!" The other three people in the front row were all frightened. Behind him, Zhao Ping, Feng Fang, Zhang Fan and other ministers also bowed their heads and remained silent. Only Han Rui was furious.
He stood up and raised his sword and faced the emperor directly. "Isn't it not your Majesty's father and brother, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao and those who shaken the Han Dynasty? It was General Wei who led us to Hebei to reorganize the Han Dynasty and gradually restore it to the best place in the world.
Even Cao Liu dared not deny the merits of General Wei, but Your Majesty blamed the loyal ministers for no reason, how unwise is it?!"
"When things come to this, why do you need to say so much?" The emperor was no longer angry when he heard this, but simply pulled out the emperor's sword from his waist with a clang. "General Wei was a loyal minister in the past, can't he be a traitor today? Even Dong Zhuo was the same back then.
Isn't he a loyal minister and a good general? Once he gained power, he brought disaster to the country? And what happened today is what I want to see? General Wei not only has no father in his eyes, but instead regards me as a scoundrel and doesn't even want to give up his daughter. What does this mean?
?Not only that, he also killed all my close relatives and alienated the ministers and relatives. I was in the palace, worried every day, and just washed my face with tears. This is what a loyal minister does? His heart, at this time, is passing by.
You know! Why cover up?!"
"What does Your Majesty want?" The veins at the corners of Han Rui's mouth were pulsing.
"Without him, I want to travel east to Nanyang to summon the princes of the clan to serve the king!" At this point, the emperor suddenly threw the emperor's sword in front of the opponent. "It is to break up with General Wei and become an enemy... If you consider yourself a loyal minister of General Wei,
, today you can kill me for him to fulfill his wish, otherwise please get out of the way!"
After saying this, he pulled out another sword from Jingze's waist beside him. He was fully crowned, the white blade came down to the ground, and he walked boldly into the Qingming Gate in the snow.
The soldiers along the way, as well as the chasing ministers who were in front of them, fell to the ground to confront him. Even Han Rui was furious, but he just stood there with his head bowed and said nothing, not daring to pick up the sword on the ground.
Killing a king is like killing a father, and Zhao Dun's story comes first. Today, Han Rui can do great things with his strength. After all, it is only a life. Naturally, his family does not have to worry, but he will inevitably let Gongsun Xun, who has been a great benefactor to him, end up.
The name of regicide.
On the other side, the emperor was forced into a desperate situation, and his courage surged up. Not only did he personally open the passage with the emperor's crown and a white blade, but when the convoy went out and met the hundreds of people prepared by Yang, he actually stood on the last carriage in person.
After the car broke off... no one dared to get up and chase him.
However, changes arose one after another in the chaos. Just when the emperor was standing on the carriage outside the Qingming Gate, waiting for the team to be ready, and ready to turn around and leave, suddenly someone inside the gate shouted from a distance: "The Supreme One should not go eastward..."
Erhan, King Guan, and many ministers who were chasing after him, such as Zhao Ping, Liu Song, Feng Fang, Zhang Fan and others, immediately became excited... It turned out that the person who came was actually Taifu Liu Yu.
Just as no one dared to stop the emperor once he came forward, it was natural for Liu Yu to want to escape from the palace. However, he had given up trying to stop him before, and now he came again, as if he suddenly realized something in his heart.
"Your Majesty!" Liu Yu chased Zhao Qian and others out of the Qingming Gate in a car, and bowed in the snow outside the gate, his face extremely anxious. "Please also ask your Majesty not to travel eastward... I just figured it out, Your Majesty
This trip is actually a plan of General Wei, and the person who advises you to travel eastward is probably General Wei!"
"Why is Mr. Liu like this?!" Yang Biao was finally furious. "Of course we have different opinions, but why do you have to smear my loyalty and innocence? I had this idea from the time of the Central Plains Alliance..."
"I don't know who it is, but there must be someone involved!" Liu Yu was panting and coughing again and again, and it took him half a day to speak to the emperor. "Maybe it's a member of the Yang family, but it's more likely to be Jingze or Youzhong.
General Li Shao! Because General Wei’s original intention is probably to have the emperor go eastward and separate the emperor from the ministers... Your Majesty, if you think about it carefully, the so-called Han Dynasty is actually not just you, but actually the ministers, emperors, palaces, and imperial mausoleums coexist.
For the Han Dynasty... If Your Majesty abandons Chang'an and goes east alone today, it is exactly what General Wei wants! He has annexed Xiliang, unified the north, and has one of two parts of the world. How can he keep your majesty in his heart? That person said it to his face
The obstacle is only the Han Dynasty, not the Emperor. What that person wants in his heart is basically for the Han Dynasty to be dismembered and its authority collapsed again. And if the authority of the Han Dynasty collapses again, and the Emperor is exiled, he will probably be happy.
Because one day the provincial government will be called regicide! This is what I say from the bottom of my heart. Please don’t fall into the trap!"
After reluctantly finishing the sentence, Liu Yu kept coughing, and the emperor and Yang Biao also moved slightly.
And just when the emperor was about to speak again, suddenly, an arrow apparently shot from the emperor's guard of honor suddenly missed the target, and hit Liu Yu's chest in full view of everyone, causing the latter to immediately fall to the snow.
, blood stained the ground.
Behind Liu Yu, Huang Wan, Zhao Qian, and many other ministers who were chasing after him changed their expressions. Han Rui, Wang Men and others even drew their swords directly to confront the Emperor's guard of honor.
The emperor and Yang Biao were completely stunned. They instinctively looked back at Jingze, but found that the other party was right beside them and could not be the archer. Looking back again, they found that the servant Yang Qi had no expression on his face and was slowly retreating.
bow.
Seeing the questioning looks from the emperor and the clan leader, Yang Qi remained calm: "Your Majesty, now that things have happened, do we still have a way out?"
The emperor and Yang Biao both felt sad. How could they not know that no matter how reasonable Liu Yu's words were at this time, there was no way he could change his mind. Otherwise, at least the Yang family would not be able to escape the fate of annihilation.
The Yang family had not failed the emperor, and the emperor could not fail the only loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, so he no longer hesitated and personally ordered to go eastward.
Han Rui wanted to continue to lead his troops to pursue him, but for some unknown reason, as if by some strange coincidence, he just rode forward alone, fired an arrow from a distance, as if returning a gift, and cut off Jingze's shoulder, and then turned around to help Liu Yu.
It was snowy, and Liu Xie only escaped eastward with a small number of ministers, mainly the Yang family. Regardless of the outcome of this trip, the young emperor had actually abandoned his ministers, the capital, the palace, and the mausoleum in Chang'an, and the Han Dynasty was inevitably divided.
.
I am the dividing line that cannot be turned back
"In the winter of the fifth year of Jian'an, the emperor of the Han Dynasty was bewildered by the Yang family and abandoned the imperial mausoleum of Gongqing to go eastward. Taiwei Liu Yu blocked the Qingming Gate. The emperor refused to listen and sent his servant Yang Qi to kill the emperor's master. The Taiwei received the Shangshu
The imperial clan ordered Minister Yu to come to the door. As soon as Yu died, heavy snow fell in Chang'an, which lasted for three days." "Jiu Yan Shu", Volume 62, Biography 12
