Chapter 23 The Wind Rises(1/2)
The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind?
Ding Chen finally understood what it means to be "there are capable people behind the scenes".
However, Yuan Wei's death completely angered the private soldiers of the Yuan family. The so-called master was humiliated and his servant died! How could they give up when the master was killed?
They did not hear the conversation between Yuan Wei and Ding Chen.
They only saw that the two of them were talking, and suddenly Yuan Wei was shot and killed...
Who is it not for Ding Chen’s instructions?
The servants suddenly turned red and shouted in unison.
Ding Chen also complained secretly, and at the same time he understood that no explanation at this time was meaningless, and he could only kill him.
"Gao Shun, kill!"
"Here!"
Gao Shun raised his big sword and shouted sternly: "Don't leave any one, kill them all."
The Nangong Guard immediately shouted in unison and rushed towards the Yuan servant. A bloody massacre immediately kicked off.
Ding Chen did not participate in the war, but jumped off his horse and came to Yuan Wei's body.
Hu Cheer has already taken people to investigate the murderer, but probably there is little hope... If the Yuan servants never caused trouble, Ding Chen might have a chance. But now, he doesn't even know where the murderer is hiding, how to start?
"Duke Yuan, Duke Yuan, what do you want to say to me?"
Looking at Yuan Wei's eyes dying with his eyes closed, Ding Chen's face was as deep as water.
Before his death, Yuan Wei said that he was plotted by someone... Who did he plotted by? Why did he plotted by?
I miss him, Yuan Wei, a dignified tutor and a three-month master from four generations. After experiencing ups and downs in the court, he has experienced many twists and turns. He is definitely a scheming guy. Such a person actually sighed that he was "calculated"? How clever is the person who plotted against him!
When Ding Chen thought of this, he felt chilling.
He stretched out his hand and closed his eyes for Yuan Wei.
"Mr. Yuan, I just want to know who is planning... If you have a spirit in heaven, please help me."
Silently muttering in his heart, Ding Chen slowly stood up.
At this time, the battle with Yuan's servants had come to an end. Except for a few people who were still fighting stubbornly, all the rest were killed.
The moon was hidden at some point, and a few dark clouds floated from the sky.
Hu Cheer came back with people, just as Ding Chen thought, without any clues.
"Hu Cheer, go and help Lao Gao end the battle.
I'm sending my order to collect the body... Lao Gao, follow me to the Yuan family's courtyard and see where there are clues."
"Here!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
At dawn, heavy rain suddenly came.
However, the rain did not last long, it came quickly and went quickly.
Yuan Wei was hiding in the place where he was set on fire.
Especially his bedroom and study were burned to the point of darkness, leaving only a piece of ruins.
"A war last night, a total of 743 people from Yuan Ni were killed."
"Can the existence of Euphorbia be found?"
“Not found.”
Strange!
That night, more than twenty elliptical soldiers appeared.
But there was not even a elliptical man beside Yuan Wei, which was a bit strange.
Ding Chen felt more and more that there were too many suspicions hidden in it. Yuan Wei was afraid that it was not the mastermind who assassinated Liu Bian, and he might even know nothing about this. The reason for escaping was because someone informed him. Yuan Wei was afraid, so he hid in Xiamapo and prepared to escape from Luoyang.
Well, that's probably the case!
However, although he hid in Xiamapo, he was always under surveillance.
So the study and bedroom would catch fire, so when he decided to surrender, he was killed to destroy the evidence of guilt.
If this is true, the person behind the scenes would be too terrible.
Ding Chen even felt a chilling feeling, and he felt a little scared.
"Lord, Mr. Jia Xu and General Cao are here."
"Which General Cao?"
"It's General Cao Xing and Cao."
It was almost dawn, and Ding Chen finally waited for Dong Zhuo's reinforcements.
Cao Xing and Jia Xu came side by side. When they saw Ding Chen, a strange expression flashed across Cao Xing's face, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
But Jia Xu's face was as deep as water.
He was fooled!
At this time, if he still doesn't understand the mystery, then he won't be called Jia Wenhe.
Someone deliberately revealed the news, revealing Yuan Wei's hiding place; some people led him to come and used Dong Zhuo's hand to kill Yuan Wei, and then blamed Dong Zhuo.
That's Yuan Wei, Yuan Wei from the Yuan family in Runan!
Jia Xu could even imagine that once the news came out, the Yuan family's disciples and former officials would never give up.
Even the Luoyang City, which had just calmed down, will be in turmoil again.
And all this was caused only by Jia Xu's carelessness.
When he saw Ding Chen, Jia Xu did not smile at all, but said with a gloomy face: "Mr. Ding, please explain to me in detail what happened last night. Don't omit every detail and every situation, tell me in detail."
Ding Chen brought Jia Xu and Cao Xing into the living room and sat down respectively.
Then, he told Jia Xu in detail about the course of his actions last night.
At the same time, I feel a little happy in my heart... I make you unfathomable in front of me all day, and make you pretend to be a ghost in front of me every day.
This time, I met an opponent!
Jia Xu's eyes closed slightly, and he listened carefully, but his face was expressionless.
After Ding Chen finished speaking, he opened his eyes and looked at Cao Xing.
"General Cao, what do you say?"
Cao Xing also showed a solemn look at this time.
After thinking for a long time, he said in a deep voice: "This matter is of great importance, and we need to report it to the Prime Minister immediately.
The left and right have become a fact, and neither you nor I can change it. Mr. Wenhe doesn’t have to feel guilty about it, just blame the thief for being treacherous.
Mr. Ding, please order the troops immediately and return to Luoyang.
All the heads were cut down, and only claimed to the outside world that we wiped out a group of bandits last night and won a great victory. The news of Yuan Wei's death should be concealed as long as possible, so that the Prime Minister can decide... Well, Nangong Guards won a great victory in this battle and made great contributions. After returning, they would temporarily stay in the Longmenshan schoolyard, and they would be rewarded and then sent to the schoolyard.
Ding Jun, you have worked hard all night, go home and rest.
I will take over the matter here from now on, so you can go first.”
Cao Xing did this not to steal Ding Chen's credit.
But this matter is too big, so big that Ding Chen is not suitable for showing up at all. As for him, he doesn't care much! Anyway, he has a bad reputation after following Lu Bu. Even if he adds some bad reputation, he is not afraid. Ding Chen is not suitable for appearing now.
Ding Chen is a smart man. After the initial surprise, he understood what Cao Xing meant.
"I will obey the order!"
He stood up, bowed to agree, and then left the living room.
He found Gao Shun, whispered to him, and then took Hu Cheer away!
Gao Shun once said that Hu Cheer is a powerful general and it is difficult to stand alone.
Since that's the case, it's better to let him become his own follower... Well, keeping him at home will make it safer for Sister and Cao Ang to stay.
Shortly after Ding Chen left, Gao led Nangong Guards back to the Longmen Mountain Schoolyard.
On the side of the shedmapo, Cao Xing's troops took over.
One by one, the bloody heads were cut off and hung around the horse's neck.
The whole village was filled with a bloody atmosphere, which made people shudder...
"Old Cao, if you do this, you will be criticized!"
"What's there to do if you're on your back?
My Cao Xing has a bad reputation. When I was in Wuyuan, someone called me a black wolf.
To be continued...
