Chapter 186: Cai Yong is in distress
Menzi watched Lu Bu turn over the red rabbit horse, leaned down and hugged Diao Chan on the horse's back, and then laughed and rode away. Looking at the back of Lu Bu in the distance, Menzi still looked confused, he was thinking in his heart, what did Lu Bu mean by letting him run for his life immediately?
Menzi thought about it for a long time, but still didn't come up with a reason. Just as he was about to close the door of the mansion, he suddenly noticed a strange phenomenon, the patrol team that usually passed in front of the gate from time to time was suddenly gone. Menzi can be very prosperous in the Dong Mansion, and naturally he is not a stupid person, he contacted Lu Bu who actually broke into the door with a swagger, and openly abducted the woman of the Taishi, proving that something big will happen, and if he does not escape, his life will be difficult to protect.
Menzi hurriedly returned to his room, packed up a batch of soft goods, wrapped them in a bag and carried them on his back, and went to the stable to lead a horse, and quickly fled from the Dong Mansion.
Lu Bu took Diao Chan to his mansion in Yiwu, knocked on the door of the mansion, threw the reins of the red rabbit horse to the butler who came to open the door, and walked towards the backyard with Diao Chan in his arms.
As early as when Wang Yun's family saw Diao Chan, Lu Bu was fascinated by her, and his mind was full of her shadows. Later, after she was included in the mansion by Dong Zhuo, although she met once in Fengyi Pavilion, she didn't talk a few words, but she was broken by Dong Zhuo, and even almost took her own life. Now that Dong Zhuo is dead, where can Lu Bu still be able to hold on, he rode his horse for seventy miles overnight, and rushed to Yiwu to snatch Diao Chan out.
When Lu Bu carried Diao Chan into his room, he didn't wait for the other party, so he put her on the bed and began to do the short things of the spring night. The two lingered in the house for a night, and did not fall asleep until dawn.
When Lu Bu was sleeping soundly, he was suddenly woken up by the sound of people outside shouting and neighing. He was about to get up, but he woke up Diao Chan, who was asleep on the side. Diao Chan heard the movement outside, and asked with a panicked face: "Wen Hou, why is it so noisy outside, could it be that Dong Thief sent someone to arrest me and others?" ”
Diao Chan's words frightened Lu Bu, and in an instant, he really thought that Dong Zhuo had sent someone to arrest him. Just as he wanted to find Fang Tian to draw the halberd, he suddenly remembered that Dong Zhuo had been killed by himself yesterday, and his body was now on display on the streets of Chang'an, how could he still send someone to arrest him. The voice outside must have been Huangfu Song rushing to Yiwu with a large army, and Dong Zhuo's mansion was being raided. I don't know if the disciple last night listened to his advice and fled a long time ago, otherwise what awaits him is only the fate of his head in a different place.
After figuring out what was going on, Lu Bu hurriedly took Diao Chan in his arms and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, the Dong thief was already in Beijing yesterday, and the people outside shouted that the horse was neighing, it may be that General Huangfu Song is taking people and horses and is raiding the Dong Mansion." After saying that, he let go of Diao Chan, turned over and began to dress.
When Lu Bu came outside the house, he found that it was already three poles in the sun, so he hurriedly ordered someone to bring the red rabbit horse, and carried Fang Tian's halberd towards Dong's mansion. At this moment, the Dong Mansion has been surrounded by the people brought by Huangfu Song, three layers inside and three layers outside. Seeing Lu Bu's arrival, the soldiers hurriedly made way for him.
Huangfu Song stood outside the gate of the mansion on horseback, looking at the Dong family who were constantly being escorted out of the mansion by soldiers, or the boxes of belongings carried out. Seeing Lu Bu coming, he nodded slightly, and asked casually, "General Wenhou left the barracks last night, why did he arrive at this moment?" ”
Hearing Huangfu Song's question, Lu Bu laughed a few times with embarrassment, and changed the topic and asked, "Have you taken all the family members of the Dong thief?" ”
Huangfu Song nodded and replied, "Zhuo's brother Dong Min and nephew Dong Huang have been captured, and Dong's mother and daughters have not run away. "Lu Bu and Diao Chan, he heard a little, after bringing people into Yiwu today, the first thing was to look for Diao Chan in the mansion, but no one in the mansion saw her. Later, it was Huangfu Song who saw the broken deadbolt at the door, and analyzed that it was probably Lu Bu who took Diao Chan away overnight.
Raiding Dong Zhuo's house was busy until Shen Shi came to an end. Li Su, who was in charge of statistics, came to report to Huangfu Song and Lu Bu: "The two generals of Qiyu, Dong Thief's family property has been roughly counted. There were hundreds of thousands of gold, millions of platinum, and countless kira, jewelry, utensils, grain, and so on. ”
Huangfu Song waited for Li Su to finish speaking, and then asked, "Have the families of the Dong thief been arrested?" ”
Li Su knew very well in his heart that Diao Chan could also be regarded as the daughter of the Dong family, but since he had been taken away by Lu Bu, he turned a blind eye to this matter and said: "Back to General Huangfu, the family of the Dong thief has never escaped a single person. Zhuo's mother, Zhuo's brother Dong Min, and nephew Dong Huang have all been arrested. ”
Huangfu Song instructed Li Su and said: "Li Su, you go and ask who among the female dependents of the Dong Mansion is a woman from a good family who was forcibly taken into the mansion by Dong thieves, and let them all go." ”
When Li Su heard Huangfu Song say this, he hurriedly asked again: "What should the daughter of the Dong family do?" ”
Huangfu Song frowned, and then said: "But it is a relative of Dong and the thief, regardless of the old and the young, they are all killed." Li Su, you immediately lead people to escort them outside the city and behead them. ”
Just as Huangfu Song and Lu Bu were confiscating Dong Zhuo's family property in Yiwu, Wang Yun set up a banquet in the capital hall in Beijing, convened all the officials, and celebrated with wine. And the frustration who has been giving him advice is also within the scope of being invited.
After drinking until he was half-drunk, he said to Wang Yun: "Wang Situ, now that General Huangfu is confiscating Dong Thief's family property in Yiwu, it is better to let him take Dong Thief's old department and stay in Yiwu." If necessary, he can also let him recruit Li Dao, Guo Yan and other Dong Zhuo's old subordinates. ”
Unexpectedly, after Wang Yun heard this, he actually shook his head and said: "Li Dao, Guo Yan and other four generals are Dong Zhuo's henchmen, and the ministers of the court and the central government are eager to eat their flesh raw. ”
Seeing what else he wanted to say, Wang Yun hurriedly waved his hand at him, "Gonghe, today's banquet is to celebrate Dong Thief's ambush, don't say anything that spoils the fun." Come, let's drink this cup together! ”
Frustrated, he could only raise his wine glass and gesture to Wang Yun, and then drank the wine down.
At this moment, a small official suddenly came to report: "Qiqi Wang Situ, we were ordered to put the corpse of the Dong thief in the market to show the public, Zhuo's corpse was fat, and the corpse sergeant put the fire in his navel as a lamp, and the ointment flowed all over the ground." The people who passed by threw their heads with their hands and trampled their corpses. Suddenly, a man lay down on his corpse and wept. ”
Wang Yun was furious when he heard this: "Dong thief ambushed him, and the people did not congratulate him; Who dares to cry alone! Then he instructed the samurai in front of the palace, "Capture me!" ”
After a stick of incense, the warrior brought the person lying on Dong Zhuo's corpse. After the officials saw the person clearly, they were all shocked: it turned out that the person was none other than Cai Yong.
Frustrated, who was drinking alcohol, was even more shocked when he saw Cai Yan being escorted up by the samurai, he remembered again at this moment the purpose of his coming to Chang'an, one was to offer a series of schemes to Wang Yun, and the other was to persuade Cai Yong to leave Chang'an and avoid being killed. But since Wang Yun assured himself that he would let Cai Yong be safe and sound, he didn't pay attention to rescuing Cai Yong from Chang'an. Especially after Dong Zhuo died yesterday, he even left this matter behind. At this moment, seeing Cai Yong being escorted up by the samurai, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Wang Yun pointed at Cai Yong with his finger and scolded angrily: "Dong Zhuo is a traitor, today is a great fortune for the country." You are a Hanchen, but not for the National Day, but for the thief, why not? ”
After Cai Yong waited for Wang Yun to finish speaking, he pleaded guilty and said: "Although Yong is not talented, he also knows the righteousness, how can he betray the country and go to Zhuo?" Just because of the feeling of knowing the encounter for a while, I didn't feel that I cried for it, and I knew that I was guilty. May the public see the original: if the head of the head is sufficient, so that the history of the Han Dynasty will be continued, in order to redeem his innocents, Yong will be lucky. ”
