Chapter 2 Disturbing the World 22. The imperial capital has no sleep

Chang'an, Imperial Palace.

Wang Yun was holding a wine glass at this time, inviting the ministers to drink on behalf of the emperor. And the emperor sat on the dragon chair, staring at the wine glass in front of him, and tears gradually appeared in his eyes.

The following group of people, this group of "important ministers of the court", killed Dong Zhuo without consulting him at all. Is this their "loyalty" to the big man......

Wang Yun's high-pitched voice and the laughter of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty made the whole palace seem lively. However, today's emperor feels unusually cold.

He felt completely unrelated to these people below, and these people didn't care about him at all. At this time, Liu Xie's mind just kept echoing the words he had with Dong Zhuo before......

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that many people in the court say that the minister is a sinner who coerces the Son of Heaven and causes chaos to the court. Today, the minister told His Majesty, let them say it, I, Dong Zhuo, don't care, but as long as I am in this court, no one can harm Your Majesty. ”

……

"Heh, Your Majesty will be the emperor who will shock the heroes of the world in the future, how can he not even tame this beast? Come, help Your Majesty to get on the horse. ”

……

"Your Majesty, although it is a target, the minister hopes that Your Majesty can be like a real enemy, and the bull's-eye is the heart of the enemy. At this time, he was also aiming at His Majesty, and if His Majesty did not kill him, then he would definitely kill His Majesty. ”

……

"Your Majesty, when the minister and Your Majesty first met, they knew that the intelligence of King Hongnong was far from Your Majesty's, so they abolished him. Now that the heroes are rising, if he does not die, he will leave an excuse for the princes to send troops. It was the order of his ministers who poisoned him. If Your Majesty is to blame, you will only kill one of your ministers. ”

……

"Your Majesty, the minister will leave Your Majesty one day. The minister just hoped that by that time, His Majesty would no longer need the protection of others, and the minister would be at ease. ”

……

A sentence that sounded a little presumptuous at the time, but now it echoed in his ears, Liu Xie lowered his head, and tears couldn't stop falling.

"Your Majesty, today you will get rid of the thief and celebrate with the whole world, Your Majesty should be happy, how can you be so sad?" Wang Yun walked up to the emperor with a wine glass and said slightly drunk.

"I also cried with joy for this matter, Aiqing has worked hard and made great achievements, come, I will give you a cup." Liu Xie wiped his tears with his dragon robe and said with a forced smile.

Liu Xie is talented and intelligent, so he naturally understands that Wang Yunju at this time is proud of his achievements and has no one in his eyes. So, he had to endure for the time being.

Wang Yun's wine was brought to his mouth, and he was just about to start drinking, when suddenly a waiter hurriedly ran in from outside the door and whispered a few words in Wang Yun's ear.

After Wang Yun heard this, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by a cold look.

"Aiqing? What's the matter? The Emperor asked tentatively.

"Your Majesty, it's just some remnants of Dong Zhuo who are making trouble, go and arrange it, Your Majesty don't worry."

The emperor whispered, "It's Li Dao, right?" ”

Wang Yun looked at the emperor in surprise, he didn't expect this young emperor to have such a quick mind.

"Aiqing, go, this glass of wine, I will drink it when you come back." With that, the Emperor lowered his glass.

Wang Yun smiled helplessly, turned around and strode out of the hall.

Outside the door, the little colonel who reported the news looked anxiously inside, and when he saw Wang Yun coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward to report: "Lord Shangshu, that Li ......"

Wang Yun waved his hand to stop the little colonel, and he looked back at the hall, where the hundred officials were drinking happily and didn't notice it.

So, he lowered his voice and asked, "How many centaurs?" ”

"I can't see it clearly in the night, but at least there are fifty thousand."

"Oh, come on, go and ask General Lu Bu to come over."

"Yes!" The guard next to him agreed, and walked down the steps quickly.

"Go down and keep quiet." Wang Yun said to the little colonel who reported the news with a solemn face......

Zhang Feng led Xu Yuan's men to successfully help the Flying Bear Army occupy the secret passage, and after that, the Flying Bear Army lurked in the secret passage, only waiting for Li Dao to attack from the inside when he attacked the city.

Now all he has to do is to open the city gate and let Li Dao's army in.

Before today's action, Xu Yuan had already handed over the drug prepared by Xi Yan to Zhang Feng. At this time, Zhang Feng distributed the drug to Xu Yuan's subordinates, and asked them to divide into four teams to open the various city gates, and he came to Lu Bu's mansion with a copy.

After Cao Xing killed Li Su, Lu Bu discussed with everyone what to do in the future.

According to his thoughts, he was ready to stay in Chang'an City to continue to protect His Majesty, but Zhang Liao and Hao Meng insisted on letting him leave the land of Jingshi and go to other princes.

Just when everyone was arguing about this matter, the next person ran in and told him that Diao Chan had been caught......

Because Diao Chan was imprisoned in the secret room by Dong Zhuo, his body has not yet recovered, so he has been cultivating in the inner house. And Zhang Feng quietly climbed into the inner courtyard and charmed Diao Chan with drugs.

It's just that he didn't plan to take her away like this, but chose a way that puzzled everyone, and asked the people in Lu Bu's mansion to call Lu Bu over.

When Lu Bu came to the back in a panic, Zhang Feng was holding the delirious Diao Chan with one hand and holding a dagger against her throat with the other.

"Zhang Feng! Immediately release the Diao Chan girl, otherwise don't blame the old men for being unkind to you! Zhang Liao yelled.

"Heh, it's just a dog of Lu Bu, what are you murderous. Lu Bu! Listen, as long as you do what I say, I will never hurt Ying'er! ”

Lu Bu held back his anger and asked, "What do you want?" ”

"I want you to immediately evacuate Chang'an with your men from the north gate!"

The north gate was attacked by Guo Yan and his troops. The reason why Zhang Feng let Lu Bu go this side was because according to his judgment, if he took the east gate attacked by Li Dao, he could not guarantee that with Li Dao's vicious character, he would let them go. And Lu Bu died here, not what he wanted, all he wanted was for Lu Bu to live in pain.

"If you hate me, you can just kill me, why do you want me to leave?" Lu Bu said angrily.

"Hehe, kill you? Regardless of whether I have the ability to do so, it is not what I expected if I let you die so cheaply. The one who secretly drew the bow, you better not do it indiscriminately, if you are faster than your hand, I am confident that I can kill Ying'er before I am shot. ”

Cao Xing reluctantly let go of the bowstring and looked at Lu Bu.

"I'll say one last time, leave through the north gate with your people, otherwise, I'll do it at once." As he spoke, Zhang Feng exerted force on his hand, and blood immediately dripped from Diao Chan's neck. Although Diao Chan was delirious, he also let out a "hmm" in pain.

"The generals will obey!" Lu Bu didn't hesitate any longer, "Immediately gather your men and horses to evacuate Chang'an from the north gate, and I will personally escort Diao Chan." ”

Zhang Feng couldn't help but admire the execution of Lu Bu's subordinates, without a pause, Gao Shun and the others acted immediately, leaving only Zhang Liao to stay by Lu Bu's side.

"Then it's going to trouble General Lu." Zhang Feng's face showed a sly smile that the conspiracy had succeeded.

This is the last plan, and what Li Dao is tabooing now is nothing more than Lu Bu's men and horses in Chang'an City. And Zhang Feng has already eliminated this threat......

East Gate of Chang'an.

Lying on the ground lay the corpses of soldiers guarding the gate and masked assassins.

Xu Yuan's men, who were about to open the East Gate, were in trouble, and they miscalculated the number of guards at the East Gate.

Although Wang Yun arranged a celebration banquet, he did not completely relax the city defense. Due to the geographical location, Wang Yun focused on the east and north.

To the south of Chang'an is the Qinling Mountains, and to the west is the direction of the escape of Dong Zhuo's remnants, who are no longer a threat. Although the possibility of the enemy circumambulating the other gates could not be ruled out, Wang Yun had already sent strong crossbows to the west and south gates, and for the east and north gates, additional cavalry was dispatched.

Cavalry vs. infantry, army vs. assassins, no matter what, Xu Yuan's men did not have an advantage. Fortunately, each of them was agile and did not suffer many casualties at first, and even killed quite a few foot soldiers.

However, as the cavalry charged in formation, they gradually began to lose their grip, and the Assassins continued to fall.

In desperation, they could only throw out the drug in their hands.

The war horse's breathing quickened due to running, but it was the first to be hit. As the horses fell, the battle finally returned to balance.

However, even with the infantry, the Assassins still had no chance to attack after they were arrayed.

Both sides are completely gambling with their lives to win.

At this time, there were only a dozen or so Assassins left, and opposite them were more than two dozen soldiers defending the city.

Just as the Assassins were almost giving up, the defenders suddenly gathered behind as if they were being pulled by something, and blood began to bloom among them.

Duan Xuan stood behind these twenty or so soldiers, his left hand raised above his head and pulled back with a fist in the air, those soldiers seemed to be bound by an invisible force, and blood marks appeared on their bodies.

But in a short time, the blood stains quickly expanded, and the soldier's body was cut into several pieces as if cut by a sharp blade. Some people didn't even have time to shout before they became pieces of meat.

This is the weapon used by Lu Yuan's subordinates when he first attacked and rescued Dong Zhuo - "spider silk". This is a weapon made of several extremely fine spider silks, and Mo Yue passed on this "killing move" to all his subordinates, but Duan Xuan's usage was more creative: he braided the silk threads into a giant web.

Just now he secretly observed in the room, and found that this group of people seemed to be about to open the city gate, and he immediately understood that Li Dao had sent people into the city, preparing to open the city gate when the city was attacked.

At this time, Duan Xuan completely ignored Lu Yuan's orders, and only wanted to take revenge on Wang Yun and Lu Bu. So, he made the wrong decision: to help the Assassins open the gates and let Li Wei into the city.

Just as the Assassins were at their end, he opened his webs and landed behind the soldiers, where he slammed them in, and the tenacity of the silk strangled the armor of the guards of the city, and the parts that were not protected by the armor were sliced open.

Originally, they only needed to adjust their direction slightly to get rid of this "torture", but in the panic, the soldiers only cared about breaking free, and they didn't have any command at all, so Duan Xuan succeeded.

"May I ask this friend, who are you and why are you waiting for me?" The lead Assassin asked.

"First of all, I'm not helping you, I just want Wang Yun and Lu Bu to die here; Secondly, I don't want to be friends with you. After speaking, Duan Xuan flew away.

Although they were curious about Duan Xuan's identity, the assassins knew that they still had business to do.

As the drawbridge was lowered, the gates slowly opened.

Outside the door, Li Dao, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and others took the reins, and the war horse took a step and entered Chang'an.

……

The careerists in the troubled times are finally going to face each other again.
