Guo Yan saw that Li Wei had murderous intentions towards Fan Chou, and secretly wondered whether he should remind Fan Chou, lest he become a ghost under the knife for no apparent reason.

In the early morning of the next day, just as Li Dao was about to send someone to the city to search for Dong Zhuo's remains, suddenly a military marquis who stayed in the city hurriedly ran into the big tent and reported to Li Dao and Guo Yan in a panic: "Qi Qi, two generals, something big has happened in the city." ”

Seeing that the military marquis was so flustered, Li Guo and the others couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts, and said in their hearts that it wouldn't be the Qinwang soldiers and horses of the foreign princes, right? They asked in unison, "What's wrong?" ”

The voices of the two startled the marquis, and after a brief moment of panic, he replied: "The two generals of Qiqi, the younger one caught one of the chamberlains who tried to escape from the palace before dawn. According to his confession, he said that shortly after our army broke through the city yesterday, the holy car was robbed. Wang Yun was afraid that our army would see the flaws, so he ordered him to pretend to be a holy driver to deceive us and others. ”

"What, there's such a thing?!" What the military marquis said startled Li Guo and the others, and hurriedly ordered the military marquis, "Bring the inner servant up." ”

A moment later, the marquis approached the tent with a panicked chamberlain. As soon as the chamberlain saw Li Guo and the two people sitting in the middle, he immediately knelt on the ground with a puff, kowtowed again and again, and said: "The two generals spare their lives, it's not that they want to deceive the two generals, it's really Wang Yun's dog thief who forced me to ......."

Li Wei learned that the chamberlain in front of him was the one who pretended to be Emperor Han Xian and deceived him last night, he couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, he got up and drew the sword from the sword stand, strode to the front of the chamberlain, raised the sword high, and prepared to split the sword of the chamberlain into two pieces.

"Keep people under the sword!" At this moment, Jia Xu's shout suddenly came from the door of the big tent: "The childish general is slow, and the sword is left." ”

Li Wei lowered the sword in his hand, looked at Jia Xu and said, "Why does the military advisor want to intercede for this pretending to be a holy driver? ”

"This person can't be killed!" Jia Xu came to Li Dao's face, and said to him and Guo Yan in a low voice: "Yesterday in front of Xuanping Gate, the Holy Lord gave the four of you the title of official and knighted, if you kill this person, then last night's reward will naturally be countless." It's better to make a mistake and put this person under house arrest in the barracks, and let him stabilize the court in the name of the holy driver. ”

After listening to Jia Xu's suggestion, Guo Yan first said: "Childish, I think what the military advisor said is extremely true, let's be wrong!" ”

Li Wei put away his sword and said to the military marquis who was escorting the chamberlain in: "You are so bold, you dare to be so rude to Your Majesty. Someone! With the shouting, two big-shouldered and round-waisted soldiers came in from outside.

Li Dao pointed at the military marquis with his hand and said to the two pro-soldiers: "Drag this person out and take a heavy responsibility for fifty boards!" ”

When the marquis heard Li Dao say this, he was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what he had done wrong, which actually provoked Li Dao to be angry, but he did not kneel down and beg for mercy, but let his own soldiers drag him out of the tent to be tortured.

After the military marquis was dragged out, Li Dao bent down to help the chamberlain, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is frightened." The person who offended you, Wechen has already disposed of him. You stay in the barracks and wait until the situation in the city is stable. After speaking, he shouted outside the tent again, "Someone! ”

He said to the two soldiers who came in this time, "You two find a quiet place and take Your Majesty over to rest." Without my military order, you can't wait to leave Your Majesty half a step, understand? ”

"The little one obeys." The two soldiers agreed, stepped forward and left the tent with the attendants.

After the fake Han Xiandi left, Li Dao turned his head and asked Jia Xu: "Military advisor, what should we do next?" ”

"This fake emperor can only deceive for a while, and after a long time, he will inevitably reveal flaws." Jia Xu twisted his beard and said, "Our top priority is to find out as soon as possible where the princes robbed the holy car. ”

Regarding Jia Xu's speculation, Guo Yan asked curiously: "Why do the military advisors think that the princes sent people to rob the holy car?" ”

"It's very simple," Jia Xu replied, "According to the chamberlain just now, the holy chariot was taken from the palace shortly after our army broke through the city. Let's ask, if it weren't for the princes all the way, how could they have the ability to sneak into the palace and rob the holy driver? ”

After listening to Jia Xu's analysis, Guo Yan nodded, and then asked, "Then which prince does the military advisor think will be the prince who robbed the holy driver?" ”

"If you say who is the most suspicious, it is none other than the two brothers Yuan Benchu and Yuan Highway." Jia Xu said thoughtfully: "The fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, there are many protégés, as long as the holy driver is welcomed to the area under their control, then they will have the strength to fight against us, and they can summon all the princes to crusade against us at any time in the name of the Son of Heaven." ”

Hearing that he might be besieged by princes from all walks of life, Li Wei couldn't help but be in a hurry, and he hurriedly asked Jia Xu: "Military advisor, then how should we deal with it?" ”

"From Chang'an to Yecheng or Shouchun, there are thousands of miles away, and you will never be able to get to the place without ten days and a half months." Jia Xu sneered and said, "Just send a messenger and order the Hangu guards to close the city gate and not allow anyone to enter or leave." Then we will send cavalry to chase and kill, and we may be able to intercept this group outside Hangu Pass. ”

"That's a wonderful thing to say." Guo Yan and Jia Xu applauded after he finished speaking, and then said to Li Wei: "Childish, without further ado, we will immediately send a messenger to order the passes along the way to be strictly investigated, and we must not let the holy driver escape to Yecheng or Shouchun." Then you and I will personally lead the cavalry to pursue! ”

After making up his mind, Li Dao sent people to Hangu Pass and ordered the guards to close the pass, while gathering his generals and preparing to lead his troops to pursue Emperor Xian of Han who fled.

Besides, Emperor Han Xian followed the brothers and sisters of Fu Zhu and Xiahou to drive all night, although it was not the first time to go out, but the carriage with poor shock absorption still turned him upside down. He felt a little unbearable, so he opened the curtain and said to Xiahou Yun who was following the car: "Xiahou girl, I really can't stand it, can you go and tell the frustrated prison army and find a place to rest before leaving?" ”

Xiahou Yun saw Emperor Han Xian's face pale, and felt that he might really not be able to stand it, so he rode his horse to Fu Zhi's side and told Emperor Han Xian's request to Fu Zhu. After hearing this, he shook his head and said, "No, if the expectations are not bad, Li Guo and the others will soon find out that the holy driver is missing, and they will definitely send someone to chase after them." If they send messengers to preemptively inform the Hanya guards and close the pass, we will not be able to escape. ”

Xiahou Yun felt that what Fu Zhu said was very reasonable, so he returned to Emperor Han Xian's car and repeated Fu Zhu's original words to him. Fortunately, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty has been in a position of being bullied since he ascended the throne, so it has long been commonplace for others not to obey his arrangement. Seeing that he didn't agree to stop and rest, he could only sigh and retreat back into the city to rest.

Fu Zhu and others hurried away with Emperor Han Xian, and Li Dao and Guo Yan also set off from Chang'an with cavalry. To the east, the 3,000 cavalry led by Han Zhan also arrived only twenty miles away from Hangu Pass.

"What, there's such a thing?!" What the military marquis said startled Li Guo and the others, and hurriedly ordered the military marquis, "Bring the inner servant up." ”

A moment later, the marquis approached the tent with a panicked chamberlain. As soon as the chamberlain saw Li Guo and the two people sitting in the middle, he immediately knelt on the ground with a puff, kowtowed again and again, and said: "The two generals spare their lives, it's not that they want to deceive the two generals, it's really Wang Yun's dog thief who forced me to ......."
