Chapter 228: The bitter Dong Cheng Baibo is embarrassed
Chapter 228: Dong Cheng is in trouble with Bai Bo
If Zhao Yun doesn't care and Guo Jia doesn't ask, Dong Cheng will be pitiful. Those in Chang'an Prison are not good men and women!
You know, originally all the prisoners in Chang'an Prison were basically dead. Perhaps a few people who survived by eating human flesh were also dragged out by Li Jue to defend the city. Now, in Chang'an Prison,
They are all evil prisoners who have done evil and took advantage of the situation.
Who is Dong Cheng? Although he seems to have suffered a lot, compared with ordinary people, it is still the difference between heaven and hell. A high-ranking official with tender skin and tender flesh can still survive if he falls into the hands of a group of extremely vicious prisoners.
What's the benefit? If Zhao Yun hadn't said hello, Dong Cheng might have been eaten alive by a group of prisoners. Just like that, Dong Cheng also sang a few songs of "flowers" in the prison!
Ten days later, Dong Cheng was taken out of the prison by Zhao Yun. The tattered clothes and the fishy smell were really unbearable. In order to prevent Dong Cheng's odor from smelling like the odor of General Guo, Zhao Yun ordered someone to wash him.
I took a shower and changed into clean clothes.
Seeing that the clothes Zhao Yun prepared were actually coarse cloth worn by common people, Dong Cheng wanted to protest. Zhao Yun glared and asked, "Have you not lived enough in prison?"
Dong Cheng immediately became silent after hearing this. He remembered the inhumane treatment in Chang'an Prison and felt a numb pain behind him. In order not to repeat the same mistake, Dong Cheng immediately behaved like a little daughter-in-law and followed Zhao Yun without saying a word.
"Dong Cheng, right?" In the meeting hall, Guo Jiagao was sitting on the table, while Dong Cheng stood pitifully at the door. Not to mention tea, there was not even a place to sit.
"Exactly!" Although Dong Cheng is domineering, he is not stupid. Even Zhao Yun can kill him, but Guo Jia, who is now sitting at the top, is not someone he can offend.
"I have reported your matter to Chengdu!" Guo Jia wrote quickly and said without raising his head: "The master replied that if Liu Xie came to ask for food as his nephew, Chang'an could help him. But he came in the name of the emperor.
Speaking of which, please bring out the imperial edict passed down to him by the late emperor! As long as he cannot produce the imperial edict from the late emperor, we will never recognize the legitimacy of the emperor Liu Xie!"
"Your Majesty is the only son of the late Emperor. Is there any bloodline of the late Emperor in the world now? Since not, His Majesty's accession to the throne is justifiable..." Dong Cheng can let go of other matters. But when it comes to the legitimacy of the emperor Liu Xie, Dong Cheng cannot let it go.
, he is Liu Xie's father-in-law, and he and Liu Xie both prosper and suffer.
"Who told you that the late emperor has no bloodline?" Guo Jia raised his head and glanced at Dong Cheng, then continued working, but his words were like a thunderbolt hitting Dong Cheng's heart!
"The late emperor had two sons. The eldest son was the young emperor Liu Bian. He was deposed as King Hongnong and was said to have been killed by Dong Zhuo. Your Majesty is the youngest son of the late emperor. But...could it be that the late emperor had an illegitimate son?" Dong Cheng stood there with a look on his face.
Sometimes it's green, sometimes it's white, I don't know what I'm thinking.
"Huh?" There was no movement for a long time. Guo Jia raised his head and asked, "Mr. Dong, do you have anything else to do?"
"No...no..." Dong Cheng suddenly came back to his senses and said: "Ah no! I would like to ask Mr. Guo, what does the champion say about His Majesty's request for food and fodder..."
"Am I not clear?" Guo Jia snorted coldly: "If you want food and grass, use the attitude of your nephew towards your uncle! If you want to be superior and show off the emperor's prestige, please bring out the late emperor's edict and the imperial edict stamped with the imperial seal.
! When these two things are ready, my lord will immediately offer you as much food and grass as you want!"
"This..." Dong Cheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly started crying. He was crying so hard that it made anyone who heard it sad. When he saw the tears, he almost rolled on the floor.
"Master Dong, what's wrong with you?" Guo Jia still suppressed a smile even though he knew Dong Cheng was pretending.
Dong Cheng cried and said: "My lord! You don't know! Your Majesty was in such a miserable state in Luoyang! He didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes every day, and he even had to go out to collect firewood with all the officials. The champion was your Majesty's uncle. Could it be that
Can you bear to see His Majesty suffer?"
"It's indeed a bit unbearable!" Guo Jiamo stroked his short beard and couldn't help but smile: "Since His Majesty is so miserable, I will send an army to escort him to Chang'an. What do you think?"
"This..." Hearing what Guo Jia said, Dong Cheng couldn't pretend anymore. What would happen if Liu Xie arrived in Chang'an? Liu Zhang was decisive in killing, and he was also a nobleman of the royal family, so he succeeded him as the emperor's uncle.
Being the emperor is not a problem. Dong Cheng has already suffered a loss once, how can he be fooled again?
Dong Cheng quickly declined and said: "Luoyang is the imperial capital after all. How could your Majesty be willing to abandon the land of his ancestors? I hope you will forgive me!"
"In that case, I have no choice!" Guo Jia shrugged and said, "However, I can't let you go in vain. Come, bring a stone of corn and a hundred catties of meat to Mr. Dong, so as to offer it to His Majesty, lest outsiders say
My lord is mean!”
"One stone of corn, one hundred catties of meat? Are you sending a beggar away?" Dong Cheng was dumbfounded. He had been acting for so long and Guo Jiaqi gave him this little thing. It is better to show off. Wang Kuang gave more. Dong Cheng looked angry and pointed at Guo Jiaqi.
: "Guo Fengxiao, don't bully others too much! Although Luoyang is ruined, your majesty is still the leader of the Han Dynasty..."
"Pa!" Guo Jia slapped the pen in his hand on the table and said, "King Hongnong and Queen Mother He are in Shu. Do you want me to invite them to come out and discuss with you who is the orthodox Han Dynasty?"
"What..." Dong Cheng's eyes widened with a look of surprise. In terms of status, in the absence of a posthumous edict, Liu Bian is more qualified to be emperor than Liu Xie. Sometimes, if you are born a minute earlier, your fate is doomed.
!
"Hmph!" Guo Jia snorted coldly: "Don't show your reputation as the head of state in front of me, you are not qualified! Get out of here! Otherwise, I will send you to jail for a few more days!"
It's not that Guo Jia is reckless, but he wants to tell Liu Xie not to cause trouble, otherwise he can be replaced at any time. In fact, the reason why Dong Zhuo killed Liu Bian in history was because he was worried that someone would dethrone the emperor. Since Emperor Ling had two sons, killing one
, wouldn’t he become an only son? No, after being threatened by Guo Jiayi, Dong Cheng did not dare to stay any longer, and returned to Luoyang in despair with only one rice and one hundred catties of meat.
"The father-in-law is back?" Liu Xie looked at the things on the ground and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"Your Majesty, I almost lost sight of you!" Dong Cheng lay on the ground, thinking of what happened in Chang'an, he couldn't help but feel sad.
When Dong Cheng cried, not only Liu Xie, but also Yang Biao was stunned. Liu Xie quickly helped Dong Cheng up and said, "Guozhang, what happened?"
"I went to Luoyang with His Majesty's imperial edict, but was criticized by the subordinates of Champion Marquis as a false edict. As a result, I was imprisoned in Chang'an Prison for ten days! The prisoners in that prison were all beasts..." Dong Cheng cried more and more sadly.
, he has never suffered such a loss in his life.
"How dare Liu Jiyu do this? I am the late emperor's only son. I can't even ask him for some food and grass. Does he want to become emperor?" Liu Xie's expression changed. Although he knew that what Liu Zhang said was the truth, Liu Hong was left with nothing.
He is a son. Who else is qualified to be the emperor of the Han Dynasty besides him?
"It is said that Queen Mother He and King Hongnong are in Yizhou!" Looking at Liu Xie, Dong Cheng forced himself to say something.
"What?" Dong Cheng's words were like a thunderbolt that struck Liu Xie's heart. His face turned green and white for a while, and he looked very wonderful.
When he was in Luoyang, Liu Xie wanted to use Dong Zhuo's help to get rid of Queen Mother He and King Hongnong, but unfortunately he failed. After Dong Zhuo's death, Queen Mother He and King Hongnong disappeared again. He thought they were captured by the rebel army.
I didn’t expect to be captured in Yizhou!
After a long while, Liu Xie regained his composure. He couldn't help but sigh: "My dear friends, please go down first! I am tired and want to rest! As for these rice and meat, let's cook a meal and share it with everyone!"
"Report!" Everyone was about to leave when they saw Dong Cheng's subordinates rushing in and saying, "Your Majesty, there are a large number of troops approaching from outside the city!"
"What?" Dong Cheng jumped up from the ground and asked, "Is it Cao Mengde who came to greet the emperor?"
"Is it really Cao Aiqing?" Liu Xie was also a little excited. It's not that Cao Cao is better than Liu Zhang, but that Liu Zhang's status is too high and he is a member of the royal family. Liu Xie can't handle it at all. But Cao Cao is just the adopted son of a eunuch. In Liu Xie's case,
In the hearts of Baiguan, he is easier to control!
"No...no!" The principal said with a cold sweat and a face full of horror: "It seems to be a yellow scarf thief!"
"What?" Yang Biao didn't care about being reserved. He grabbed the principal and asked, "How many troops are there?"
"It is reported that there are about 50,000 troops!"
It turned out that the white wave yellow turban thieves had been patrolling near Chang'an. Li Jue and Guo Si had 400,000 troops, so they naturally did not dare to take advantage of them. After Li Jue and Guo Si were defeated, Liu Zhang occupied Chang'an and sent people to occupy Tongguan.
Guan. In order to prevent Liu Zhang from blocking him in Chang'an, Baibo and Huangjin Qu commanded Hu Cai and Li Le led his troops to the vicinity of Luoyang.
Li Le and Hu Cai were not prepared to attack Liu Xie at first, but they heard that Yang Feng, the former commander of the White Wave Yellow Turban Canal, was now a general of the imperial court. Li Le, Hu Cai and Yang Feng were both White Wave Yellow Turban thieves, so they naturally wanted to
When they were officials, they had been observing Liu Xie. When they found that the power around Liu Xie was weak, they began to think of blackmailing the emperor to control the princes. Of course, their idea was the same as that of Li Jue and Guo Si, which was to threaten the emperor and ask for an official position.
That’s all!
"God bless me, a big man!" Liu Xie suddenly collapsed on the ground, seemingly losing all his strength.
"Your Majesty, pack up the carriages and horses, let's go quickly!" Fu Wan took Liu Xie's hand and said, "General Lu Bu is fighting Cao Cao in Yanzhou, and we are fleeing to Yanzhou. As long as we can persuade General Lu and General Cao to help your majesty, the big man may be able to
ZTE!”
"Do I still have a chance?" After being a puppet for several years, I finally escaped and fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban bandits. This kind of blow was fatal to a young man like Liu Xie.
"Yes!" Yang Biao also came up and said: "If you don't leave, there won't be any. If you leave, there will definitely be!"
"Report!" Just when Liu Xie made up his mind and was about to escape, another primary school student rushed in.
"What happened again?" Liu Xie was already frightened and couldn't bear this surprise.
"Your Majesty, a troop has arrived from outside Hulao Pass and is holding a stalemate with the Yellow Turban bandits. General Yang Feng has also led troops from Yewang!"
"Yang Feng is here?" Dong Cheng said happily: "Your Majesty, I will mobilize the army to help Yang Feng!"
