1.59 To each his own destiny
Jia Xu opened the wooden box, one long and one short, and two scorched woods were placed separately.
Seeing Cao Xiu's doubts, Jia Xu said: "This is the 'Heluo Dead Soldier' recruited by His Majesty to hold a crossbow. ”
The old man has also heard of it. The dead soldiers of Heluo held the 'embroidered clothes chasing soul crossbow', and the arrows chased the soul. The West Garden Guard Board is heavy armor, and it can't be royal. Cao Jie said. In other words, in terms of hands and eyes, the old man in front of him is unmatched in Luoyang City.
"Exactly." Jia Xu said again: "The shogunate schools have been inspected. Comparable in power to the Soul Chaser. However, for some reason, it spontaneously combusted halfway. Burn into charcoal. ”
Cao Jie then understood what he meant: "The meaning of the right words is that this crossbow spontaneously combusts for no reason, and it is man-made." It's not that you're inferior. ”
"Exactly." Jia Xu bowed his head slightly.
After thinking about it for a while, Cao Jie also got a glimpse of the trick: "The dead soldiers of Heluo took advantage of the strong crossbow and were invincible. Unexpectedly, the sharp weapon in his hand burned for no reason. Xiyuan Wei took the opportunity to fight back, and after killing all the dead, he fought with Hu Benlang in a chaotic ......"
The more Cao Jie said, the more shocked he became: "Push the boat down the river and kill people with a knife." In this killing game, there are masters behind it. ”
"That's what I thought."
"Do you have a clue?"
"All the dead soldiers in Heluo were killed, and there is no proof of death. But there is only one person left. Jia Xu lived up to expectations.
"Who?"
"Yingchuan Haoqiang Huang Gang." Jia Xu replied: "After the war, this person was missing. It is expected that he is still lying in Luoyang City. ”
"This person was recruited by Dr. Cheng Zhong. Why don't you go to find Lord Cheng to help. Cao Jie asked.
"Just in case the news leaks." Jia Xu replied: "He was killed by a traitor." ”
"I see." It is precisely because Huang Gang was recruited by Dr. Cheng Zhong, and life and death are very important, that he needs to knock on the side and secretly investigate. If you make a big show and ask Cheng Huang for this person, you will be shocked and cut off the clues.
Glancing at Jia Xu, Cao Jie smiled deeply: "Youcheng is also looking for the old man to 'throw stones and ask for directions'." ”
Jia Xu said goodbye: "Everything can't be hidden from the boss." ”
Huangmen North Temple Prison.
Got the edict of the two queen mothers and the queen of He. The general He Jin's family was small and was able to see the light of day again.
He Jin used the excuse that "the new emperor was crazy and had one of his ears cut off, so he had to draw his sword and deal with it." The dead soldier of He Mansion received the remnants of the yellow scarf by himself, but he did not show any flaws, and finally passed the test in confusion, and the official was reinstated. Not only is he not to blame for the past, but he also took over the defense of the two palaces in the north and south, as well as the aftermath from the hands of the three princes and the nine kings of the Shogunate and the five schools of the Shogunate.
He Jin's family lined up and came out, each crying with joy.
However, the ten permanent servants and their henchmen who were imprisoned next door sighed and sighed, like mourning.
Among them, Li Song, Gao Wang, Zhang Gong, Sun Zhang, and Xia Yun, five people, died under the chaos of the army. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Bi Lan, and Song Dian were captured. Only Guo Sheng and Feng Yu were spared.
The new emperor was anxious to establish his authority and sit firmly on the throne. Therefore, I want to finish my work in one battle. Unexpectedly, elbows and armpits were born. Although it failed to win in one battle, it also achieved most of it.
After this battle, more than half of the ten permanent servants were lost, and they existed in name only.
The Yellow Gate ordered Zuo Feng, and a number of medium and small Yellow Gates, such as the Middle Yellow Gate Huan Xian, Xie Bu, Qingzhong Five Eunuchs, etc., were all reused. The power inside and outside the palace is sideways, but no one can take it for themselves. Eat it all.
General He Jin, General Liu Bei of the Auxiliary Han Dynasty, and Dong Chong, the hussar general, each Chen Jing had more than 10,000 soldiers, around Luoyang.
The dethronement of the new emperor is a foregone conclusion.
The three emperors and queens then discussed with the three princes and nine kings, important ministers of the court, and the successor candidates.
The eldest son of the first emperor, the crown prince Liu Wei, was expected by all and had no objections. However, who came to the dynasty to weigh the system and assist the young emperor, everyone argued.
He Jin is the first to recommend Queen Lingsi. said, He Hou is the biological mother of the young emperor, and the mother is expensive by her son, and she should be the prisoner of the country.
But there are three princes and nine secretaries, and they fight for reason. Although the young emperor has no mother-in-law, he has a grandmother. If you talk about orthodoxy, when the Empress Dowager Dou is in the dynasty and is in charge, she assists her grandson.
As a result, Dong Huqi and his family refused to let it.
The three parties cite scriptures and classics and argue on the basis of reason. Verbal warfare, not giving an inch.
Even Shang Shuling, who said that he was sick at home, was also invited back to the palace. Inquire about political affairs.
Cao Jie said: "The king of thistle is the minister of the orphan. Why don't you ask the king of Ji Ji for six hundred miles? ”
The three emperors and queens had no objections. The general He Jin, the hussar general Dong Chong, and the three dukes and nine kings did not dare to refute. So the problem was quickly whipped and thrown to Liu Bei, the king of thistles.
Seeing He enter and get out of prison and see the light of day again.
Bi Lan and Song Dian, the two of them were sad for a while, and they cried separately.
Zhao Zhongshen glanced at Zhang Rang and whispered: "Is it okay to punish copper to avoid death?" ”
"How can a felony of disobedience be forgiven?" Zhang asked rhetorically.
Seeing that he seemed to have other plans, Zhao Zhong asked again: "I'm waiting for twelve people, and more than half of them have been lost." After this battle, the momentum is not as good as before. For the sake of the present, life is the priority. ”
"Don't panic." Zhang Rang replied: "It is expected that at this moment, there are endless quarrels between the DPRK and China. When the overall situation is decided, we can be exempted. ”
Zhao Zhong hurriedly asked: "But let you not kill the 'taboo weapon' of the 'Empress Dowager Dong'." ”
"Yes, yes." Zhang Rang smiled gloomily: "That night, when I met you, although I lost my soul, I was by no means sitting still. He had secretly ordered his henchmen to leave the palace and lurk in Luoyang City. If you and I can't survive, the 'taboo' will surely appear. Within a day, everyone in Luoyang knew that if the city was full of wind and rain, the Empress Dowager Dong would die. ”
"Sure enough!" Zhao Zhong was overjoyed: "No wonder you are willing not to kill Empress Dowager Dong." ”
Zhang Rang smiled again: "It's not soft-hearted, just to leave a way back." ”
"If you can live, what should you do?" Zhao Zhong sighed: "There is no place for Luoyang to stand, and there is no place in the world. You and I cut and saw more people, how to survive in troubled times. ”
Zhang Rang replied, "It doesn't matter." I have already thought about it, and I invited myself to go to the Wenyuan Garden to guard the tomb of the first emperor. ”
"Go together, go together." Bi Lan and Song Dian also spied on one or two.
Zhang Rang shook his head: "After this chaos, the second palace was burned down a lot. The two of you are good at building, and you should be of great use. I don't think I'll dig deeper. Waiting for the official to be reinstated can be an internal response. Communicate with the two of us for a good chance to recover. ”
"It's a deal." The four of them swore to the sky, lived and died together, and then became rich and noble.
Linxiang, Jiwang Palace.
The rooster crows, and the sky is bright.
Tucked the corners of the quilt for Song Guiren, and Liu Bei pulled out.
The knots in my heart are fully resolved, and the ice is released. Although the Song family was demoted from the queen to a nobleman. However, there is a difference in life circumstances. In the third year of Jianning, the Song family was selected into the court and was named a nobleman. Emperor Shi Ling was only thirteen or fourteen years old. He reigned for eight years, and was in the right position without favor. The harem is fortunate to be all the people, and they are slandered together. You can imagine how difficult it is to live.
Later, he was falsely accused of "coercing the left road to curse", abolished into the riot room, and "died" with worry. He caused trouble to his family, father and brother, and was punished. If he hadn't met Liu Bei, he might have burned to ashes with the Taicang fire today.
The fire of the Toad Palace was obviously set by Cao Jie's order. The intentions speak for themselves. Cao Festival's time is running out, and it is about to enter the ground. And the money has been earned enough, so he took the opportunity to cut off the disaster and protect the family.
Liang Ji, the former general, was inspired by the friendship period and ordered Qin Taicang to steal the construction of the Toad Palace and collect countless fortunes. Later, it was secretly taken over by Cao Jie and others. Under the desire for profit, in addition to the nobles of Zhuyuan, even Emperor Huan's favorite concubine, after the abolition of Emperor Ling, they all dared to move flowers and trees, sent them to the Zhegui Pavilion, and sold them at a price.
Come on now. Tian Sheng, Empress Song and others must have ordered Bi Lan to secretly make a move. It's just because of the violent room, and it's in the middle of the court. The palace concubine who was beaten into the violent room, who cares about life or death. Just make a report, pull out of the palace and bury it hastily.
How many palace concubines did they fake their deaths and escape, and they lived in the Zhegui Pavilion. Presumably, only Cao Jie knows it in his heart.
Now a fire has destroyed it, and it is gone. The death of Qin Taicang and the pavilion, and the whereabouts of the palace concubine, only Cao Jie knows.
Referring to what happened to Tian Sheng and the legend of Lady Hook Wing, Liu Bei actually thought of the belonging of the concubines.
That's right, it's the major fairy sects.
