A heavy knock on the door sounded outside. Lu Bu angrily pulled out his weapon, cursed, put on his pants, opened the door, and cursed: "Why are you knocking on the door in broad daylight?"
He was nine feet tall, bare-chested, and his chest hair was as messy as his hair, showing a kind of savage roughness. Facing such a fierce-looking man, several soldiers outside couldn't help but put their hands on him.
On the handle of the knife, the leading officer stared at Lu Bu and said solemnly: "General, please go to Changle Palace!"
"Why did Chen Cheng ask me to go to Changle Palace?"
The officer said calmly: "I don't know, General Lu just ask the general!"
"Hmph, wait!"
Lu Bu waved his hand, strode back to the yard, put on the clothes scattered on the ground, and then, escorted by the tooth soldiers, headed in the direction of Changle Palace. After coming out, he realized that something seemed wrong. On the street
Not many pedestrians were seen, only countless soldiers and horses moving back and forth.
The sound of heavy footsteps and the sound of steel clashing mixed together, creating a tense atmosphere.
Lu Bu couldn't help but look around, feeling a little guilty, and thought to himself: Doesn't the man named Chen want to kill me because he wants to occupy Diao Chan for a long time?
He used himself to save others, thinking that this idea was probably very reasonable, and wanted to escape, but the soldiers around him knew Lu Bu's name, and they all stared at him with eager eyes, and there was no chance of escape. Even if they didn't know Lu Bu's name, they were all looking at him covetously.
Reputation, even when seeing Lu Bu so tall and majestic, he would be wary.
When they arrived near Changle Palace, Lu Bu became even more panicked. Many ministers and generals had been called over. There were fully armed soldiers all around the palace, with their swords unsheathed and looking murderous. After asking about it, he realized that it was
Shi Sunduan and others plotted to kill the general. Now that the matter was exposed, the general captured him to settle the score.
Only then did Lu Bu feel relieved, and he looked at the dozen unlucky guys kneeling on the ground with ease, and regretted in his heart: You wanted to kill the man named Chen, which is fine, but why didn't you kill him?
But when he thought of Chen Cheng's ghost-like martial arts, Lu Bu felt that if Chen Cheng really died in the hands of these bastards, that would be the biggest joke. And in that case, wouldn't he, Lu Bu, also become a joke?
Originally, Chen Cheng only planned to kill seven or eight courtiers, but Shisun Duan raised his arms and many more people came in. Now, even if Chen Cheng wanted to kill a few fewer people, he couldn't do it. If he committed a rebellion like this
If you don't kill all major crimes, then other people will be a little bit different in the future?
He is not a good old man like Fu Jian. He can even let go of those who jump out blatantly. If he is planning secretly, Chen Cheng can treat it as invisible and deal with it slowly. Since he jumped out, he can only execute the leader.
, his family was sent to the Western Regions to grow cotton.
Liu Bian was pushed out by Yang Qiu's men. He looked at the ministers in the hall, especially those who were kneeling on the ground with swords pointed at them, and his heart suddenly went cold. Shisun Duan was the Taifu, he was
One of the closest ministers was also the initiator of the plan to kill Chen Cheng.
Now Shisun Duan was lying on the ground, and he didn't know whether he had fainted or died. But no matter what, Liu Bian became afraid. He had read history books. Emperor Gaozu was fine after that, but the worst he could do was to be deposed.
After Emperor Guangwu's revival, several emperors died without explanation in the next few hundred years.
Liu Bian looked around nervously, but he didn't see the soldiers coming up with the cakes. He felt a little relieved. He turned to Liu Qian with a straight face and begged: "Sister Huang, you must save my life this time!"
Liu Qian was annoyed by what he said before, "Humph" and turned her head away.
Liu Bian pulled her sleeve and said sadly: "Father, we are the only two princes left. If I die, you will be alone in this world!"
Princess Wannian's heart softened, and she turned around. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Queen Mother He saying angrily: "Your Majesty, you are the emperor, how can you make such a gesture? Even if you want to die, you must be upright and don't lose it.
The face of Tianjia!"
Liu Bian lamented: "But I don't want to die!"
Queen Mother He's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. She glanced at Liu Qian coldly, then looked at the surrounding soldiers with their swords unsheathed, and sneered: "Chen Cheng killed my brother He Jin before, and now he
Come to kill the emperor and the queen mother, you are really a traitor!"
Liu Qian looked at Queen Mother He up and down, and saw that although the Queen Mother was in her thirties, she looked like she was twenty-three or four years old because of her long-term good life. But even if she was really only twenty-three or four years old, this
In this era, she was already considered an old girl.
When she looked at Queen Mother He's face, she was still very confident, but when her eyes moved downwards, she frowned slightly. She seemed to be inferior...
"What are you looking at?" Queen Mother He was made uncomfortable by Liu Qian's extremely aggressive gaze, as if a hand was touching her face, "If you want to kill, just kill, call so many people."
, is it to show how domineering Chen Cheng is?"
Liu Qian had a strange smile on her face and said, "Does the Queen Mother know what that person just said?"
Queen Mother He was stunned, followed Liu Qian's finger and looked at Shisunduan, frowning and said: "What did the master say?"
Liu Qian looked strange and said: "Just now, in front of everyone, Taifu Shisun said that the general was filthy and messed with the harem, and that he had raped and insulted the queen mother and the princess."
"Nonsense! Bastard!" Queen Mother He was so angry that her whole body was shaking, her hands and feet were cold, her eyes widened, and she cursed angrily: "How dare this old man talk nonsense like this!"
As she cursed like this, her body became hot and her thighs seemed to become a little wet. She had been living for a long time. She woke up countless times late at night and imagined... Thinking of this, she seemed to have changed.
He became even more angry and his face turned red.
"The general has arrived!"
Following the shouts of the bodyguards, Chen Cheng walked in with Meng Da, Fazheng, Bao Chu and others. He stood still in the hall, glanced around, and asked: "Are all the civil and military officials in Beijing like this?"
arrive?"
After Li Kan was appointed as the governor of Shuofang and Liang Xing was appointed as the governor of Wuyuan, Zhao Si and Wei Ran were promoted to the commanders of the trap camp and the flying bear cavalry respectively. Ma Chao and Pang De were transferred to the bodyguards.
Chen Cheng also transferred Bao Chu, who was recommended by Fazheng, into the bodyguards, and made him sit in the position of deputy commander with the rank of captain.
Meng Tuo came out and said: "Everyone has arrived."
"Now that everyone is here, let's get down to business." Chen Cheng's face turned cold and he said, "Everyone must know that Shi Sunduan and others conspired to rebel and led his troops to attack Weiyang Palace. They should be punished.
Death. But are there only a few people who are treasonous? Are none of you present colluding with them?"
He looked at Wang Yun standing in the front row with a sneer and asked, "Wang Situ, what do you think?"
Wang Yun's face was pale and his heart was cold, but he said without fear: "What the general said is, how come there are only so many people?"
He looked up at Chen Cheng, fearless, "I don't know how many people have the same thoughts as Taifu!"
Chen Cheng laughed, "Just admit it..."
"General!" Cai Yong stood up and said, "I thought that those with evil intentions are only a minority after all. Wang Situ is talking nonsense now!"
Wang Yun looked at Cai Yong with disdain and said loudly: "What Cai Shangshu said is wrong!"
After the imperial court was moved to Chang'an, the best among the original courtiers was Cai Yong. Chen Cheng respected his reputation and talent, and directly worshiped him as the Minister of Rites, becoming one of the chief officials of the six departments. In this way, the original minister
The courtiers looked down on Cai Yong very much, thinking that he was a despicable man who actually fell into association with the Xiliang thieves.
Seeing that Wang Yun wanted to say something else, Wang Can, the Minister of Rites, came out and said: "General, I think that Wang Situ is so disturbed that he is unconscious now, so it is better to let him go home first."
Wang Can's grandfather and great-grandfather were both Sangong, and he was from a famous family. Although he was less than seven feet tall, he was very knowledgeable. After coming to Chang'an, he quickly read the textbooks from Chang'an Primary School and Chang'an Middle School, and took
He went to Chen Cheng for advice on some issues and gained the general's love.
And because Wang Can and Cai Yong had a good relationship, and Cai Yong had praised Wang Can's knowledge many times, Chen Cheng simply appointed him as the Minister of Rites and asked him to consult with Cai Yong every day.
Seeing that both Wang Can and Cai Yong were vaguely protective of Wang Yun, Chen Cheng pondered for a moment and ordered: "Wang Situ is indeed a little confused, so go home and recuperate, and don't come to court again!"
"
"I'm not crazy!" Wang Yun shouted, "Where did I lose my consciousness?"
He was caught by two strong tooth soldiers. He looked around and said anxiously: "Han Wenyue, Lu Fengxian, you bear my witness, I am not faint!"
Han Sui also stood in the main hall. After being called by Wang Yun, he felt extremely disgusted. You ministers of the court, you don't even call me rebellion? It's really annoying!
It has been a long time since Xiliang people were disliked, not to mention that he was a Xiliang thief? But Han Sui was unhappy. Seeing Wang Yun looking over, he sneered and said: "Wang Situ is old too. Come back."
Wouldn't it be better to go home and have fun with your grandchild?"
Wang Yun looked at Lu Bu again, and Lu Feng was even more happy and said loudly: "I told you Situ that you are crazy a long time ago. You still don't believe it. You should believe it now, right?"
Lu Bu was angry that Wang Yun had given Diaochan to Chen Cheng. He had long been dissatisfied with Wang Yun, and now he just added insult to injury.
Wang Yun was so shocked that he shouted, "I'm not crazy!"
But the tooth soldiers didn't listen to what he said and dragged him away directly. The ministers in the hall looked at Wang Yun being dragged away, with subtle expressions on their faces, some worried, but more of envy.
.We are not fools. Although Cai Yong and Wang Can seemed to be squeezing Wang Yun out, they helped him avoid a catastrophe.
Chen Cheng said: "Okay, Wang Situ has gone home, let's continue."
He said to Liu Bian: "These people are treasonous and should be put to death according to the law. Considering that they were once ministers of the imperial court, let them be beheaded and their families will be exiled to the Western Regions. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Liu Bian said in shock: "Since they are ministers of the imperial court, shouldn't they keep the whole body?"
