Chapter 78: The son wants to be filial and dies
On the way back to Anyi, Lu Bu was seriously ill and could not ride a horse, so he rode in the same car with his wife, with the warm fragrance of nephrite in his arms, and he was safe and comfortable along the way.
Listening to her talk about various trivial matters during the period of governing Anyi is also full of fun, but I don't know why she did everything herself? I couldn't help asking: "Since you are pregnant again, why do you work so hard?" Isn't there a father-in-law to help you? ”
Yan Xiuli then remembered that her husband escaped from Luoyang Prison, and she didn't know that his father-in-law Yan Song had died on the way to evacuate, and her heart grieved slowly, and she cried sadly: "My father is gone, and on the way to evacuate Luoyang, he was killed by Wei Qian. ”
Lu Bu came here to see his father-in-law Yan Song, he thought he was sitting in the rear, but he didn't expect that he was already separated by yin and yang, Yan Song was not only his father-in-law, but also his only elder, only Yan Song could spur Lu Bu from time to time, so that he would not make mistakes at a critical moment.
Yang Xiu and the others naturally already knew this information, but under the circumstances of Luoyang at that time, how could they tell him this? It's just to add to his troubles.
When Lu Bu heard the bad news, his heart was full of sorrow, and a wave of grief and anger surged in his chest, and he was extremely uncomfortable, and said hatefully: "Wang Yun is a thief, I will not kill you and swear not to be a person!" ”
Yan Xiuli saw that his face was hideous and terrifying, and she was frightened for a while.
Lu Bu calmed down the blood in his heart, and when he saw that his wife wanted to speak, he asked again: "If there is any other disaster, let's talk about it together." ”
Yan Xiuli's eyes were red, and she cried: "Ruyi was separated in Luoyang, and there has been no news so far. ”
When Lu Bu heard this, it was difficult to suppress the blood in his heart, a mouthful of blood gushed out, and he hissed: "I want to return to the army and kill Luoyang!" ”
Yan Xiuli saw that there was blood spitting in front of him, and the blood stains on the corners of his mouth were particularly eye-catching, and she was even more frightened by his terrifying face, so she pulled off her husband's sleeve and asked softly, "What's wrong with you, don't scare me." ”
Lu Bu just didn't hear it, his eyes were empty, he looked straight ahead, and he just muttered to himself that he wanted to kill back to Luoyang, and without saying a few words, he spit out two mouthfuls of blood, turned over and fell.
When Lu Bu woke up again, he found himself lying in the courtyard of Anyi. He had been here a few times to inspect the fiefdom division, so he was quite familiar with this place.
When I woke up again, I found that it was dark, and I don't know how long it was, my head was groggy, I only remembered the bad news that Yan Xiuli told him, and my heart was dull and abnormal, but I felt that my mouth was dry, I turned over and got up, and said, "Cheng Lian, pour me a glass of water." ”
Rubbing his drowsy temples, a figure flashed at the door, but it was Wang Ling, the new guard commander recommended by Yang Xiu, Lu Bu's heart darkened, and he remembered that Cheng Lian had died for himself.
Wang Ling took a glass of warm water and handed it to Lu Budao: "This is the boiling water that Madame poured when she left, it was just warm at this time, and it was just right to drink." ”
Lu Bu drank a glass of water in one gulp, and then asked, "What time is it, and when will we arrive in Anyi?" ”
Wang Ling said: "We arrived in Anyi two days ago, counting the time on the road, the lord fell asleep for three days. It's three o'clock in the morning, and it's just getting light. ”
Lu Bu was shocked and said, "Isn't that lady tired for many days?" ”
Wang Ling said: "Exactly, the lady is undressed, and she has not left the lord's side for three days, until she almost fainted and fell to the ground, and was pulled to rest by the lady." ”
Lu Bu was ashamed, he was a conceited hero, he was not as strong as a woman, looking at her delicate body, she had never stood down in the face of great disasters, what kind of tenacious mind was that? is a dignified man, but she is frightened, and she is really burdened with too much.
So he put on his cloak and went to the backyard boudoir to visit.
When I entered the house, I saw that my wife was lying peacefully, she had fallen asleep, her brows were frowning, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes.
When I came to the courtyard, I took out a single-sided halberd from the weapon cabinet, hooked and flirted, and went back and forth, only to feel that the chest and lungs were unobstructed, and there was no sense of occlusion in the past. The only deficiency is that this weapon is too light, and it is like a dry branch in the hand, and it really has no feeling, and I can't help but miss the Fang Tian painting halberd left in Luoyang.
At this time, there was a sound of applause in my ears, and when I looked back, it was Yan Xiuli standing at the door of the bedroom, her eyes red and swollen, but she said with a smile: "It seems that my husband's health is finally good." ”
Lu Bu saw that she had just fallen asleep, so why did she get up again, approached him and said, "I'm fine, but you're not good, look at your panda eyes." Why are you up again, didn't you just fall asleep? ”
Yan Xiuli saw that he was sweating profusely, so she took the handkerchief between her sleeves and wiped it for him, and said, "If I don't see my husband getting better, how can I sleep peacefully?" ”
Lu Bu was moved in his heart and said, "Now that you see me, you can go to sleep." ”
Sent his wife to the bedroom to rest, and saw her lying on the bed, but in a few breaths, she fell asleep, Lu Bu sighed in her heart, she can still take care of my body when she is so tired, how should this affection be repaid?
Out of the backyard, I ran into Wang Ling who came in a hurry.
Wang Ling said: "My lord, all the military advisors and generals know that the lord has woken up, and they have all asked to see him in the council hall. ”
Lu Bu secretly said that these people were well-informed, so he came to the council hall with Wang Ling.
Sure enough, seeing that the meeting hall was already full of people, even Zhang Yang, Guo Yan, Li Dao and others also rushed over.
As soon as they entered the hall, the generals saw the boss, and sure enough, they had woken up, and their faces suddenly appeared happy, and they said in unison: "Meet the lord." ”
Lu Bu sat down on the throne, and then motioned for everyone to take a seat, and said, "Everyone is here today, but what good news do you tell me?" ”
The generals looked at each other, not wanting him to ask, do the people who have survived this catastrophe need happy events to refresh their spirits?
Chen Lin said gloomily: "Back to the lord, there are no happy events, but there are two disasters." ”
Lu Bu has been numb with a series of bad news during this time, what can be more painful than the destruction of his family?
He sighed and said, "If there is any misfortune, you can tell me directly." ”
Chen Lin said: "General Ma Teng was seriously injured and died last night, this is the first case. ”
Lu Bu's heart sank, originally he knew that Ma Teng's injury was difficult to get better, and he was shot and injured his heart and lungs, even in the era when Western medicine was popular in later generations, it was not so easy to cure. Just because it was expected, although the mood is heavy, it is not unexpected.
Chen Lin said: "The second misfortune is that Wang Yun ordered Sikong Cai Yong to be sentenced to rot for conspiracy and drunkenness, so that he could sacrifice wine for the tribute courtyard and specialize in writing history books. ”
Lu Bu's life in this big man is not short, he naturally knows what rotten punishment is, and he suddenly felt extremely disgusted by Wang Yun's methods, how can this person be so brazen, and he couldn't help but scold angrily: "Wang Yun wantonly criticized the ministers of the court and framed Confucian celebrities, isn't he afraid of being ruined?" ”
Chen Lin said: "The scholars and celebrities of the Manchu Dynasty expressed their indignation at Wang Yun's move, among which the Confucian masters led by Lu Zhi, Zheng Xuan and others jointly reprimanded Wang Yun, and the Confucian students from all over the country were even more indignant, comparing Wang Yun to Wang Mang's thugs. Wang Yun was already a rat crossing the street at this time, and everyone shouted and beat him. ”
Jia Xu said: "Wang Yun's move is very unpopular, and even many ministers in the court who used to be friendly with him now avoid him, and offend people of insight in the world for the sake of temporary anger, which can be said to be worth the loss." ”
Lu Bu is not interested in Wang Yun's current situation, Cai Yong is knowledgeable and modest, Lu Bu still respects him, at this time, seeing him end up like this, just because he is not worth it, he said: "Cai Yong can also be regarded as being implicated by me, you see if there is any way to rescue him from the predicament, if he can be connected to Anyi, it can be regarded as a learned person for this big man, save a little face." ”
Everyone was speechless for a while, and Yang Xiu said with different eyes: "Cai Yong is trapped in the palace wall, I am afraid it will be difficult to make the trip, but his family members, I may be able to pick him up and take care of one or two, so as to avoid his worries." ”
Lu Budao: "In this case, you will hand it over to Dezu at this time, and you must protect Cai Yong's family and bring it to Anyi safely." ”
At this time, the history of the state assassin said: "Since the lord is personally in charge of the state, I will ask the lord to be the history of the state assassin, and if the lord is in charge, then Yuan Shao of Yizhou will no longer have any thoughts about me and the state." ”
All the generals said very much, and Guo Yan and Li Dao also asked Lu Bu to take charge of state affairs.
Lu Bu shook his head and said: "I am now in Hedong, which originally did not belong to the land of the annexation state, but was under the jurisdiction of Sizhou, and in the future, the affairs of the annexation will still be managed by Uncle Zhi, as before, just need to be directly responsible to me." ”
The generals saw that he had no intention of being famous, and they admired him even more.
Sima Lang said: "Since the lord does not accept the annexation of the state, then in what name will I be loyal to the lord?" ”
Jia Xu said with a smile: "The posture of the lord is heavenly, he will not be destroyed when he suffers, and he will be favored by God, so it is better to call himself the king of Hedong, isn't it justified?" ”
Everyone was shocked, and their eyes showed expectation.
Lu Bu shook his head and said: "Now that our strength is weak, there are many people in the world who are stronger than me, how can they be called kings and dominate the mouth, there is a way not to use the hidden dragon, we still take the name of the Marquis of Anyi, and rest and recuperate." ”
Chen Lin, Sima Lang and others all bowed down and said: "The lord looks down on fame and fortune, which is beyond our reach, and we are willing to assist with all our hearts to help the lord complete the great cause." ”
Ma Chao cut off the head of Shanhe, the leader of the Qiang tribe, and was finally satisfied.
The soldiers waved their swords and guns into the sky, shouting and hissing: "The Han is mighty!" General Poqiang is mighty! ”
After half a year of fighting, he finally defeated the Qiang people who were in trouble with Xiliang.
In this battle, Ma Chao led more than 30,000 cavalry, ran for 800 miles, burned and looted all the way, killed the Qiang people all the way and fled.
Just when Ma Chao was proud, his cousin Ma Dai quickly walked into the camp and said, "Brother, there is your family letter." ”
Ma Chao took the letter from home, and saw that the handwriting on the letter was beautiful, which was the handwriting of his wife Dong Bai, and laughed: "You see that I have been out for half a year, and your sister-in-law has missed me like this, and this book has been sent here." ”
The crowd laughed together.
Ma Chao opened the letter and read it carefully, but his face became more and more ugly.
When Ma Dai saw him, he knew that something big was happening, and asked, "Is there something going on in my brother's house?" ”
Ma Chao put away the family letter and said: "This letter was sent two months ago, and the letter said that Wang Yun and his father seized the power of the prime minister and put him in prison. ”
The generals were frightened, this subordinate was plotting, it was not a fair and righteous thing in ancient times, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
General Pang De said: "The prime minister has the grace of knowing us, and he is also kind to the general and your father, and this kind of action is afraid that the world will laugh at it." ”
Ma Dai reprimanded: "You Hugh is talking nonsense, the reason for this is not clear, how can you make a conclusion in vain?" ”
Ma Chao's expression was not good, thinking that his father had a deep friendship with Prime Minister Lu Bu, and he also knew that his father was a person, how could he betray lightly, there must be an inside story. Said: "Now don't make a conclusion in vain, we can return to the army later, and Pang De will lead 10,000 cavalry to sweep away the remnants of the Qiang people." ”
Everyone knows that this is a major event, and it will definitely involve the change of power in the DPRK and China, so naturally we must go there in person.
On the same day, Ma Chao personally led the remaining 20,000 troops, and quickly rode his horse to Chang'an, to find out the truth.
A few days later, Ma Chao returned to Chang'an, and saw that Dong Bai was already waiting outside the mansion, Ma Chao didn't say much, and asked directly: "How is the situation in Luoyang now, is there any news of my father?" ”
Dong Bai burst into tears and said: "The general is late, my father escorted Lu Bu to escape from Luoyang, and was injured by Wang Yun's general, and the day before yesterday, there was bad news from Anyi, and my father had died. ”
Ma Chao took three steps back, threw the whip in his hand on the ground, and was already in tears, and said: "I knew that my father would never be a treacherous person, so I knew that he was in danger, so I came quickly, but it was still too late, father, the child is not filial." ”
Dong Bai said: "Husband, don't be too sad, the enemy is still safe and easy in Luoyang, how can you be so depressed?" ”
Ma Chao's eyes widened, and he said, "Wang Yun, is Ma Chao young to bully me?" ”
Ma Dai said: "Brother, I am willing to be the vanguard, for my brother to kill in Luoyang, take Wang Yun's head of the dog, in memory of my uncle's heroic spirit." ”
Ma Chao hated and said: "Order the soldiers, I will personally slash Wang Yun and cut him with a thousand knives, so as to pour out the hatred in my heart." ”
In just a moment, the 20,000 army passed through the mansion without entering, led by Ma Chao, and went straight to Luoyang with murderous spirit.
Wang Yunzheng is worried about the participation of hundreds of officials in the court, although he is now covering the sky with one hand and holding great power, but all the literati and Confucian scholars seem to put their bodies out of the way, whether they are in the court or in the opposition, they all regard him as a chaotic minister and a thief, and a scum of Confucianism.
This made him regret Cai Yong's punishment, he knew that there would be such a big reaction, how could he do such a useless thing?
At this time, Yu Ban hurriedly came and said in a panic: "Lord Situ, General Xiliang, Ma Teng's son Ma Chaoqin led an army of 20,000 from Chang'an, and has already passed Tongguan and Hangu Pass, and is less than two hundred miles away from Luoyang. ”
Wang Yun was shocked and said, "Ma Chao is fighting against the Qiang people, how can he appear in Luoyang?" ”
Yu Ban shook his head and said: "My subordinates don't know, I only know that Ma Chao is fast all the way, passing through Chang'an without entering, and coming straight to Luoyang, threatening to avenge his father and take the life of an adult." ”
