The atmosphere dropped to freezing, the room was quiet and everyone could be heard breathing, Xiang Qing's face was cloudy, making it impossible to see what kind of mood he was in now.

"Say something, second brother!" Cao Chun broke the silence and shouted.

Xiang Qing turned to look out the window, the pedestrians outside the window were bustling, rubbing shoulders one after another, laughing and scolding in full view, he was struggling to control his emotions, he kept blaming himself in his heart, he was obviously a person who knew the future, why couldn't he prevent these tragedies from happening?

He couldn't get an answer to this question, and he finally understood what the world is impermanent, and no one in the world can control the future.

He held the bamboo flute tightly in his hand, his knuckles turned blue, his fingertips turned red, and the green tendons of his entire arm burst out, this bamboo flute could not withstand Xiang Qing's power at all, and directly turned into powder.

"Ten permanent attendants." Xiang Qing gritted his teeth and said three words.

Cao Chun nodded vigorously: "That's right, eldest brother, they also said that Sister Lan's business was done by the ten permanent servants!" ”

"No, it's not just them." Xiang Qing shook his head: "It's just a group of eunuchs, where did they get so much energy to frame the queen of the dynasty?" Who is behind them? ”

Approaching late at night, the cold outside the window became heavier, Xiang Qing closed the window, poured a cup of hot tea and held it in the palm of his hand, his hands were trembling angrily, but there was no clue from his expression.

"Who's the new queen?" Xiang Qing asked.

Cao Chun thought for a while and said: "It's Hu Ben Zhonglang's sister He Jin, the queen of Lingsi." ”

"He Jin?"

"Yes, since beating his sister into the palace, he has won the emperor's favor, and this He Jin's status is also rising, his sister is now the queen, and this He Jin has already worshiped the general! The general is the supreme commander, the governor of the world, the He family can be said to be honored, and the He Jin force has officially become the largest foreign relative force in the court. ”

Xiang Qing nodded and said in a deep voice, "It's them." ”

"Huh? What does it mean? I don't understand? Cao Chun asked suspiciously.

"As soon as this matter came out, the He family immediately took over as the queen, He Jin became the general, they are the biggest beneficiaries of this matter, and the ten permanent servants are in the harem, and the backstage they can contact is only those in the harem, and nine percent of this matter is done by the He family."

Cao Chun said angrily: "Then after we return to Luoyang, what are you going to do, second brother!" I listen to you all. ”

"Don't be impatient, the time has not yet come."

They are righteous brothers, although Cao Chun doesn't know what Xiang Qing means by the eight words, but he is willing to believe Xiang Qing, in his heart, the image of the second brother Xiang Qing is even more powerful than the eldest brother Cao Cao, he believes that Xiang Qing will definitely help Lan Mei avenge his hatred.

But Xiang Qing has another calculation in his heart, he knows history, so he also knows very well that in the near future, great conflicts and contradictions will break out between the Ten Standing Servants and He Jin, and it will be a lose-lose ending, the two major forces will be wiped out, but Dong Zhuo took the opportunity to enter Luoyang and become a traitor who leaned towards the government and the opposition, and in the end, he also fought to the death with the powerful people in the DPRK, and these enemies will die!

Since they will all die, and they can't change history, let it be, let the wheels of history roll forward, and crush them all under the wheels, but their heads must be plucked off by their own hands! is not only to avenge Cao Lan, but also to pay tribute to those dead soldiers!

"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!" Xiang Qing said eight more words word by word.

Xiang Xu, who was asleep on the side of the bed, muttered: "Revenge~Snow hatred~"

Cao Chun clenched his hands into fists, and his fists touched together: "Well, I must avenge Lan Mei, I must kill that demon woman with my own hands!" ”

"I'll talk about this matter later, we are still facing the pursuit of the Ghost Face Army, the so-called too much will be lost, maybe this inn will have the emperor's spies, so before returning to Luoyang, we will try to talk as little as possible."

"Yes, I see."

At this time, Liu Hu suddenly pushed the door in, closed the door with his backhand, and said in a low voice: "Second Master and Seventh Master, just now a few people were sneaky and wanted to get closer, and as soon as I looked over, they ran away." ”

"Is it the Ghost Face? Or is it an agent of the imperial court? Or is it from Dong Zhuo's side? ”

Liu Hu shook his head: "I don't look like it, I saw it just now, each of them is wrapped in a yellow cloth strip on their heads, it feels quite strange." ”

Xiang Qing frowned and muttered, "Yellow Turban Army? ”

"Yellow Turban, Army? Second master, what kind of army is the Yellow Turban Army? Liu Hu asked curiously.

"You'll know this later, where did they go?"

Liu Hu shook his head: "I didn't see it." ”

Although the night was already dark, the street outside was more lively, the people were buzzing, and the sounds on the street felt noisy through the windows, Cao Chun walked to the window and opened the window, but was frightened by the scene in front of him.

At the end of the street, a sedan chair was carried by eight strong men, the top of the golden sedan chair, the gong opened the way, the people on the street cheered, everyone wrapped yellow scarves on their heads, and gave way to the sedan chair.

There was a person sitting on the sedan chair, wearing a boxy hat on his head, a long beard, wearing a yellow robe, a wooden sword in front of him, a piece of paper in his left hand, on which was a bunch of incomprehensible ghost drawings, his right hand pinching a strange gesture and placing it on his chest, his eyes were closed, and he muttered in his mouth that he didn't know what he was saying.

"Who is this man? Dare to use the golden sedan chair roof, that is the emperor's honor guard? Cao Chun asked curiously.

Xiang Qing and Liu Hu also came over to take a look, Liu Hu pointed at the person and shouted: "Second Master and Seventh Master, wherever this person goes, it will be quiet, and he will honestly kneel to the side and kowtow!" Who is this person, such a big show? ”

"Go, call that shopkeeper Jia San."

"Okay."

After a while, Jia San, the shopkeeper, came over, Xiang Qing asked him what was going on outside, and Jia San looked like he knew it.

"Guest, what do you say? This is a big deal, this is the leader of Taiping Dao, Julu people, surnamed Zhang Mingjiao, everyone calls him Zhang Tianshi, and he also has two younger brothers, who are elders of Taiping Dao, named Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang. ”

"Taiping Road?"

When he saw the person's dress, Xiang Qing already knew it, this is the founder of the Taiping Dao, Zhang Jiao, the initiator of the Yellow Turban Uprising, it seems that he is still in the preaching stage, but according to the historical records he read, Zhang Jiao was preaching in Jizhou at the beginning, how did he come to Chang'an?

Jia San continued: "If you want to say that this Zhang Tianshi is also a strange person, I heard that there is a high-ranking official and nobleman, who has a wife and two concubines in the family, but he is nearly half a hundred years old and has no one son and half a daughter, but Zhang Tianshi gave him a bowl of water, and the big official drank the Fu water, and until tomorrow, his wife will have a happy pulse, not only this, gout and brain fever, blindness, no matter how many years of stubborn disease, in the hands of Zhang Tianshi, it is medicine to get rid of the disease!" ”

Xiang Qing smiled: "It seems that this is a miracle doctor." ”

"That's why everyone respects Zhang Tianshi, and everyone sincerely worships Zhang Tianshi."

Xiang Qing patted Jia San on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "I have the heart to remind you, this person is by no means a good person, don't blindly follow the herd, the consequences of following him are absolutely unbearable for you, so you must remember that you must not become a member of this Taiping Dao." ”

Jia San agreed, and walked out of the room, smiling disdainfully at the corner of his mouth, Cut, if this Heavenly Master is not a good person, where are there good people in this world! Could it be that you are a good person? Look at the murderous and vicious appearance of these few people, where do you look like good people?

Xiang Qing shook his head helplessly, looked at the increasingly quiet street, and asked, "This person may be the key to our revenge, are you interested in going and seeing?" ”

What he thought in his heart was that he must not be idle during the Yellow Turban Uprising, this is a good opportunity for him to brush up on his merits, and if he makes meritorious contributions, he may be able to wash away this trumped-up charge, so it is very important to investigate this Zhang Jiao first.

Cao Chun and Liu Hu replied in unison: "Okay, let's go and see where it is sacred." ”

Xiang Xu was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, Xiang Qing couldn't bear to disturb him, this child would never take the initiative to say that he was tired, this way was tense, even God should feel tired, this child has held on until now.

Carefully took off Xiang Xu's shoes and socks, covered the quilt, and Xiang Qing, Cao Chun and Liu Hu tiptoed out of the door.

When I came to the lobby, I found that this Bafang Inn was still overcrowded just now, but now it seems to be much more deserted, and there is no one in the store.

The street is crowded with people, all of them are human heads at a glance, the yellow cloth strips form a yellow ocean, overlooking this street of Chang'an City from a high altitude, the heads of people are moving, like a yellow long snake wriggling in this city.

With their heads bowed and their waists bowed, with the shouts of Zhang Jiao, everyone knelt down together, then stood up, walked for a while, and then continued to bow, these people seemed to be tireless, and they knelt down all the way.

Originally, Xiang Qing thought that religious fanaticism was the name of a game skill, but he never expected that when he saw the scene in front of him with his own eyes, his heart was still shocked, this is the true piety.

"The heavens are dead! Huang Tian should stand! Years old in Jiazi! The world is lucky! ”

Zhang Jiao shouted these sixteen words, and then everyone knelt to the side, bowed their heads, looked at the ground, and bowed their heads reverently.

And Xiang Qing and the three of them are like three outliers in the sea of people, they stand in place without moving, and when everyone kneels down, the three of them are like three flagpoles, which is particularly conspicuous.

The little boy who followed Zhang Jiao secretly shouted to Zhang Jiao: "Master Zhang, there are three people over there who haven't knelt down to worship!" ”

Zhang Jiao was sitting on the sedan chair and shook his head, but when he heard Xiao Tong's words, he frowned and looked back, only to find that Xiang Qing and the others were standing in place and waving to him.

"Master Zhang, do you have time to have a drink?"
