Three hundred and twentieth chapters run to Jinyang
Chapter 326: Run to Jinyang together
Lieutenant Wu Fu of Yue Cavalry School:
Yi Lang He Yong, the late Lieutenant Zhang Wen, Shangshu Zheng Tai, Shangshu Yang Zan, Shangshu Lang Huaxin, Huangmen Shilang Xun You...
If all of them are arrested, an earthquake or tsunami will inevitably occur in the Chang'an court...
"Capture" Dong Zhuo almost said this word through gritted teeth. The guards followed the order and left. He drove the others out, leaving him alone in the hall.
How many years has it been? He has never been threatened by death. Today, he really felt that he was just a little bit away from this world. Thinking of his mother who is nearly ninety years old and his brother who is over fifty years old, A granddaughter who has not yet grown hair, a son who is babbling... Dong Zhuo shuddered. If he died in this assassination, it is not difficult to imagine their fate. The scholars will never let them go and punish the nine tribes...
Dong Zhuo's heart was burning with anger. He asked himself whether he had treated the scholars well since he came to power. He asked officials for officials and power for power... In the end, the scholars showed no appreciation and opposed him everywhere. Now they have even resorted to assassinations. The most drastic means.
Suddenly, Dong Zhuo seemed to have thought of something and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Zheng Tai, Yang Zan, Hua Xin... were all important ministers of the Shangshutai. Wang (Yun), as the Shangshutai, did not know about it? Or did he know but did not say anything? Or did he participate in this action?
Wang Yun, don’t let me down...
"Grand Master..." A magnetic voice came from the door. Dong Zhuo woke up from his meditation and looked up. There was a man standing outside the door. He was more than eight feet tall, with a face as sharp as a knife, a high nose, and a very tall forehead. His broad, piercing eyes revealed a trace of confidence, which of course could also be said to be arrogance. He had a crown on his head, wore fine armor, and wore leather boots, showing a heroic look. He was Dong Zhuo's adopted son, the middle-aged man. General Lang, Marquis of Wenxiang Lu Bu.
Dong Zhuo forced a smile and said: "My son, what are you doing standing there? Come in quickly."
Lu Bu lowered his head slightly, stepped through the door, and walked in front of Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo slapped the case and sighed: "Well, you also know that my father almost died today. At first I didn't realize what happened, but now that I think about it, I am secretly afraid."
Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "Wu Fu was so bold as to assassinate the grand master of the dynasty. It is really beyond prosecution."
Dong Zhuo gritted his teeth and said: "Wu Fu was definitely not the one responsible for the assassination. He had many accomplices behind him. Gu has sent people to arrest him."
"Oh?" Lu Bu's pupils shrank slightly.
Dong Zhuo shook his head regretfully and said: "It is a pity that Gu Yi was carried away by anger and killed Wu Fu on the spot. Although some of his party members were later interrogated from his cronies, they may not be in detail."
Lu Bu said calmly: "I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go."
Dong Zhuo shook his head. Lu Bu was brave and invincible. He was accustomed to speaking with his fists in everything, but you must know that there are some things where fists are useless. If he really did what Lu Bu said and raised his butcher knife to kill, both sides would be injured and both would be killed.
"Let's not mention this." Dong Zhuo looked at Lu Bu and said: "My son, you will stay with me from now on. With your protection, I believe that there will be no more disasters like today."
"No." Lu Bu answered with clasped fists. He still preferred to lead the troops outside, but now that Dong Zhuo had spoken, he couldn't refuse.
Dong Zhuo looked at the door and cast his gaze to the far end, thoughtfully...
When Dong Huang led his cavalry across the long street and headed towards the Yueqi school captain's mansion, He Yong realized that the operation had failed. At this moment, He Yong was completely disillusioned and sat alone in the living room, lost in thought.
After all, assassination is just a sideshow, and it cannot be promoted on the right path. Trying to get rid of Dong Zhuo by assassination may have been wrong from the beginning. However, without assassination, how can they save the country?
In the final analysis, the power of the scholars was still too weak.
Now, they were about to face Dong Zhuo's overwhelming wrath. This fire would burn them to pieces. He Yong was not afraid of this. He had long been prepared to die at any time. What he was worried about was Sheji. If they died, Who else can stop Dong Zhuo's unscrupulous behavior? Neither the country nor the emperor can save it.
He Yong thought of Yuan Shao again. He clearly had the ability to save the country, but he chose another path. He refused to recognize the current emperor, occupied Jizhou, fought for Yuzhou, and intervened in Yangzhou. What he did made He Yong feel confused and at a loss. Is this the same Yuan Benchu who has known him for twenty years and often stays up all night talking about ways to save the country?
"Yilang, Zheng Shangshu and others would like to see you..."
He Yong raised his eyelids, looked at the servant who had been following him for more than ten years, nodded, and even lost the strength to speak.
Zheng Tai and Hua Xin had just arrived and before they could say anything, Yang Zan and Xun You arrived again. He Yong calmly invited a few people to sit down and said with a wry smile: "Today we will go to jail together and die together. It’s a blessing in life.”
Everyone looked at each other, and Xun You said: "Dong Huang led his troops directly towards the Yue Cavalry School Captain's Mansion without surrounding our mansion. It can be seen that Brother Wu did not betray us, but Brother Wu spoke very harshly, and his close followers may not be so. Now. There is still some time, why don't I take advantage of this opportunity and get out of the city quickly."
He Yong was startled when he heard this. He was so panicked just now that he didn't expect this. Then he shook his head and said, "You guys go."
Xun You said anxiously: "Yi Lang..."
He Yong waved his hand and signaled Xun You to listen to him, "My wife and children are all here, let's go together. The goal is too big and I might not be able to escape. If I run away alone, Dong Zhuo will be in trouble with my family."
Xun You knew that it would be difficult to persuade him, so he had no choice but to give up.
Shangshu Yang Zan also had a family and had the same thoughts as He Yong, while Zheng Tai and Hua Xin had no worries and planned to escape with Xun You.
"Without further delay, you all leave quickly through the back door." He Yong said this and called his servant to lead the way.
"Take care, Yilang..." Xun You solemnly said before leaving: "Yilang is famous all over the world. Dong Zhuo may not dare to move Yilang in a hurry. After I arrive in Bingzhou, I will ask Gai Huqi to rescue him as soon as possible."
He Yong said: "You want to run to Ziying?"
Xun You nodded and said: "Yes. Not long ago, I received a letter from my uncle Xun Wenruo. He is currently serving as the Sima of the Hussar General's Palace. The reconquest of Luoyang was his work."
He Yong didn't say anything and held his arms to say goodbye.
Xun You, Zheng Tai, and Hua Xin were led by servants of the He family to the back door, got on the carriage of the He family, and rushed to the nearest Qingming Gate. They got out of the city smoothly without any danger. A few people did not dare to be careless and fled until Ba. It only stopped in Ling County.
The three of them entered a restaurant to have a meal. During the meal, Xun You asked the two of them: "I am going to Jinyang to meet my uncle Xun Wenruo, Gongye, where will Ziyu go?"
Hua Xin looked at Zheng Tai quietly. Zheng Tai said: "My younger brother Zheng Wengong also serves under the Hussars General. Naturally, I will also go to Jinyang. Ziyu, what about you?"
Hua Xin smiled and said: "Since you two are going to Jinyang, I should also go with you."
"So good..."
After He Yong saw off a few people, Yang Zan also said goodbye. He still had some things to deal with at home. Soon, a servant reported that hundreds of soldiers had appeared outside the house. He did not approach, but only watched from a distance. Yong Xin knew that there was not much time left for him, so he immediately returned to the bedroom and pulled out a box from under the couch. There were hundreds of letters in stacks. It is no exaggeration to say that the owner of these letters was not from the court. The internal minister is one of the princes, and he is involved in a wide range of things.
He Yong burned the letter with a fire, and then buried it in the soil without leaving any clues. At the same time, Dong Zhuo received the order and immediately rushed into He's house with murderous intent. The servants of the He family stepped aside in fear and trembled. Trembling.
He Yong turned a blind eye to the uninvited guests, bid farewell to his wife tenderly, straightened his clothes, and strode out. Dong Jun's officers and soldiers all heard of He Yong's high reputation, and as long as he did not run away and went to see the grand master, they would let him go. Act like a celebrity.
On the way He Yong went to the Grand Master's Mansion, Dong Zhuo was looking at Zhang Wen, the former Taiwei and Weiwei. Zhang Wen was He Yong's fellow villager and a native of Nanyang, Jingzhou. He was nearly sixty years old, with extraordinary appearance and three long beards. He has official prestige. He has always had a reputation for hard work, but because he lost tens of millions of money a few years ago and took the position of Situ (of the Third Company), which affected his reputation, he is still a famous person.
He and Dong Zhuo also had a history of grievances. In the past, Han Sui and Bian Zhang rebelled and joined the bandits of Sanfu. Zhang Wen replaced Huangfu Song with General Situ Baichaoqi to take charge of the military in Western Xinjiang. Dong Zhuo always thought that he should be the leader after Huangfu Song left. He was handsome, but in the end the imperial court sent a man who paid for an official position and had no military merit to ride on his head. You can imagine Dong Zhuo's anger at the time. The two had been fighting openly and secretly, and Sun Jian even suggested that Zhang Wen kill Dong Zhuo. Naturally, Zhang Wen did not agree because he had a good military heart.
Zhang Wen thought more than once that if he had listened to Sun Jian's advice, the Han Dynasty would not be in the disaster it is today.
Dong Zhuo seemed to have seen through what Zhang Wen was thinking, his eyes were sinister, and he laughed dryly and said: "What are the guards thinking?"
Zhang Wen clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, with a calm face, and said: "I'm thinking, why did the Grand Master come to the Weiwei Mansion and invite me here?"
Dong Zhuo tilted his head slightly and said with a smile: "Weiwei really doesn't know why I "invite" you?" When he said the word "invite", Dong Zhuo especially emphasized his tone.
"I don't know, please let me know, Grand Master," Zhang Wen shook his head.
"Just now, Gu was assassinated by an assassin and almost died."
Zhang Wen looked shocked and said: "Oh? Who is so bold and daring to assassinate the Grand Master?"
Dong Zhuo said word by word: "Wu Fu, the captain of the Yue Cavalry School."
"Wu Yu? We live in the same county and have always been friendly to each other. I know his character well. He is definitely not that kind of person..."
Dong Zhuo was extremely impatient with Zhang Wen's nonsense. He waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "Wu Fu has already done all the tricks. Wei Wei is one of his accomplices. Why bother to act in front of me again." After that, Dong Zhuo said nervously. Look closely into Zhang Wen's eyes.
Zhang Wen couldn't help but panic, but he quickly calmed down. Wu Fu was a resolute and upright man, so how could he succumb to the criminal law? He expected that Dong Zhuo either had no conclusive evidence or was deliberately deceiving himself, so he shook his head and said: "I don't believe in morality. Yu Hui said this, so Grand Master asked him to call him out to confront me."
Dong Zhuo frowned and said: "Wu Fu has been severely tortured and is unconscious. He cannot come for the time being."
A trace of suspicion flashed in Zhang Wen's eyes, and he was determined that he would never admit it unless Wu Fu pointed it out in person. Dong Zhuo then pressed him again and again, but Zhang Wen only said that he would confront Wu Fu and said nothing else.
Seeing Zhang Wen's harsh words, Dong Zhuo was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Wu Fu's cronies were definitely not lying. Zhang Wen most likely participated in the assassination, but this alone was not enough to convict him. He could completely shirk the crime.
net.
Humph, if there is no evidence, I will fabricate evidence. There is no need to blame someone if you want to accuse someone.
