Chapter 444: The Old Minister's Advice

Li Qi and Guo Yan listened to it, and they both understood the reason, and under the influence of Li Ru, the relationship on the surface gradually improved, but in their hearts, they still had a deep fear of each other.

In the imperial court, Taiwei Yang Biao has been secretly observing the relationship between Li Xuan and Guo Yan, the two thieves, and seeing that the time has come to get rid of the thieves, he secretly visited the Han Emperor one night.

Although Yang Biao was removed from his official position by Dong Zhuo at the beginning, he was later invited by Li Xuan, who had the intention to curry favor with Yang Biao, the important ministers of the old dynasty, and asked Emperor Han Xian to give him a high position as a lieutenant, so as to win people's hearts. However, how could Yang Biao be with thieves, he has always had the heart to get rid of thieves.

"Holy Lord, seeing the two thieves Li Xuan and Guo Yan today, their faces and hearts are not compatible, the two are afraid of each other, and sooner or later they will turn against each other. I also heard that Cao Cao, the general of Zhendong, has more than 200,000 troops, and the ministers and generals are all talents. ”

When Emperor Han Xian heard this, he finally had the hope of getting rid of the control of the two traitors, Li Xuan and Guo Yan, and was thinking about himself, the dignified son of heaven, but since he ascended the throne, he was first controlled by Dong Zhuo, and then fell into the hands of Li Xuan and Guo Yan, like a puppet to be played with, and he couldn't help but shed tears on the spot.

"I have been bullied by the two thieves for a long time! If you get punished, it will be a great blessing! Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng served three generations of the royal family, and his father Cao Song was also an old minister in the court. However, the thieves have a large number of troops, and in recent years, the two thieves Li Xuan and Guo Yan have wantonly recruited soldiers and horses in Liang and Yongzhou in the name of me, and the number of troops is 200,000. In this way, I am afraid that General Zhendong will be difficult to defeat the thief! ”

Yang Biao saw Emperor Han Xian shedding tears, and an old heart was in severe pain, and hurriedly played.

"Don't worry, the old minister has a plan, which can make the two thieves kill each other, and then edict Cao Cao to lead troops to kill him, sweep away the thief party, and calm the court." When Emperor Han Xian heard this, he immediately suppressed his tears and said hurriedly.

"Will the plan be released?"

"The old minister once heard that Guo Yan's wife is jealous, but people use counter-plots at his wife, the wind on the pillow is the most unstoppable, and his wife is a close relative, how can Guo Yan not be tricked?"

"Good! In this way, Captain Yang, everything depends on you. If it is done and the Han family can be rebuilt, I will definitely not look forward to the work of Yang Taiwei! ”

After Yang Biao and Emperor Han Xian agreed, they rushed back to the mansion overnight to prepare a countermeasure. The next day, Yang Biao secretly asked his wife to enter Guo Biao's mansion, and Mrs. Yang had been friends with Li Qi and Guo Bian's wife under Yang Biao's instructions earlier. Mrs. Yang is smart by nature, and she is Mrs. Taiwei, and it didn't take long for Li Xuan and Guo Yan's wives to become close friends in the boudoir who talked about everything.

Mrs. Yang found Mrs. Guo Yan, went to a hidden place, and whispered.

"In the past few days, when the concubine went to Sima Mansion, it was common for General Guo to come and go in Sima Mansion. I saw him and Mrs. Li Sima eyebrows and eyebrows several times, and their relationship was very close. If Sima knew about it, General Guo and Mrs. Li Sima would have suffered from it. The concubine, Mrs. Li Sima, and Mrs. General Guo are all friends, how can you not save you when you see death, so you will say more offensive. I hope that Mrs. is not abrupt, but it is better to avoid her contacts. ”

Guo Yan's wife suddenly widened her eyes when she heard this, and her face was full of surprise, but she thought that in the past few days, Guo Yan often used Li Ru's name as an excuse, and often went to Li Yan's mansion to drink and feast, and every time she didn't return all night, she was suspicious at the moment. Guo Yan's wife also thought that in the past few months, she had heard that her husband and Li Xuan did not know what was going on, and the relationship was extremely tense, and perhaps Li Xuan had faintly noticed the collusion between Guo Yan and his wife.

Guo Yan's wife, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was like that, the more ugly her face became, and she scolded Mrs. Li Xuan in her heart for being shameless and seducing Guo Yan, and at the same time thanked Mrs. Yang.

"It's no wonder that he often doesn't come home at night! It turned out that he did such a shameless thing with that slut! If it is not the lady's words, the concubine does not know. Be careful! ”

Mrs. Yang Biao, seeing that Guo Yan's wife had no doubts, sneered in her heart, and then after a few words of concerned advice, she returned. Guo Yan's wife thanked him again and again and said goodbye. A few days later, Guo Yan was invited by Li Ru to go to Li Dao's mansion for a banquet. Although Li Xuan and Guo Yan have equal power, after all, Li Xuan is the commander who was expected by a group of Liangzhou soldiers to lead the leader. In love and courtesy, this banquet is still suitable for Li urging.

Guo Yan's wife, when she saw Guo Yan go to Li Xuan's mansion to drink and feast again, her face immediately darkened, and she said bluntly.

"Li Dao is moody, and deeply jealous of you. Besides, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, if he is drunk and poisoned, can he teach the concubine and your son how to live alone? ”

Guo Yan refused to listen, but insulted his wife, and the woman's opinion was ignorant and ignorant. When Guo Yan's wife heard this, she was jealous, thinking that her husband must have been fascinated by that slut, and she didn't know who was the wife.

The next day, Guo Yan returned drunk, and felt a little hungry in his stomach, so he called someone to cook. Guo Yan's wife suddenly had a plan when she heard this, and she actually put poison in her meal. After Guo Yan ate the meal, he suddenly dared to have severe pain in his abdomen, Guo Yan's wife was already waiting by the side, and hurriedly helped him vomit out the food.

"Husband, this must be Li Xuan's intention to harm you, and he is afraid that you will be suspected if you die in Sima Mansion, so he put slow poison in the wine, so that when you return home, the poison will occur, and no one will suspect him!"

Guo Yan was originally drunk, and he believed half of it without analysis, and then remembered that Fan Chou didn't die in the banquet set by Li Xuan. Immediately, Guo Yan was so frightened that he woke up most of the drunkenness, his eyes were so wide that the corners of his eyes almost cracked, and he roared angrily.

"Okay, you Li Zhiran! I plan great things with you, and I intend to share the wealth. But you can't tolerate me, and now you want to kill me for no reason, if I don't strike first, I will be poisoned!! ”

Guo Yan is like a lion who has been awakened, and the first thing a lion does when he wakes up is of course foraging. Guo Yan's eyes burst into a gloomy light, and he didn't care about resting, so he rushed to the school to meet his henchmen, densely organize the armor soldiers of the headquarters, and discuss the deployment of attacking Li Dao's command three days later.

Who knows, among Guo Yan's henchmen, there is a general who has already been bought by Li Xuan. Guo Yan and his confidants agreed, and after the banquet was dismissed, the man immediately secretly reported to Li Dao.

When Li Dao heard this, he was furious on the spot, and his whole body seemed to be in flames, and he shouted with all his might.

"Guo Aduoan dares to do this! If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have been in the position he holds today! Ungrateful man, I will kill you! ”

Although this is the case, Li Xuan thought that there were only 80,000 troops under his command in Chang'an, and the other 40,000 troops were led by Zhang Ji, who was stationed in Hongnong. And almost all of Guo Yan's troops under his command are in Chang'an, with 80,000 troops, which is equal to him. If you rush to attack now, I am afraid that you will lose a lot of troops.

After thinking about it, Li urged a small general and ordered him to rush to Hongnong in the starry night, to secretly order Zhang Ji to reorganize his troops and horses, and rushed to Chang'an three days later to besiege Guo Yan together.

Unexpectedly, the young general called by Li Yan happened to be the chess piece that Guo Yan secretly ordered him to lurk around Li Xuan, and the young general did not go to Hongnong after receiving the order, but rushed to Guo Yan's mansion to report to Guo Yan. Guo Yan listened to it again and again, if he hadn't made arrangements earlier, he was afraid that a catastrophe would come in three days. At that moment, Guo Yan took Li Ji's secret letter from the young general, and then imitated Li Xun's handwriting, faked a book, and asked the young general to send it to Zhang Ji, and the content of the letter was to order Zhang Ji to immediately send troops to attack Lu Bu in Shangluo from the day he received the letter.

After that, Guo Yan secretly dealt with the traitors who were bought by Li Xuan. At this time, Li Xuan didn't know that Guo Yan made a plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, and transferred Zhang Ji to attack Lu Bu, and he was still worried that when Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses arrived three days later, he would be able to take Guo Yan's head before and after.

What Li Xuan didn't expect was that late the next night, Guo Yan suddenly raised his troops, and after gathering the soldiers and horses of his headquarters, he killed the camp of Li Xun's subordinates. Fortunately, since Li Xuan learned that Guo Yan had the intention of rebellion, he had already sent his eyes to monitor the vicinity of Guo Yan's subordinate camps in and outside the city. As soon as Li Xuan's eyes saw the camp of Guo Yan's subordinates, the crowds were surging, the horses were jumping, and the sound of soldiers and armor colliding frequently sounded, so he knew that Guo Yan had rebelled in advance, and immediately came to report to Li Xuan.

Li Xun immediately rushed to the camp in the school field in the city, notified the soldiers of all departments to prepare for battle, and sent a number of generals to the camp outside the city to inform, waiting for Guo Yan's vanguard to kill, Li Xun's soldiers and horses in the city had just been half rectified, and they went to block it first, although it was a little hasty and chaotic at first, but as Li Xun led the Flying Bear Army to fight, killing the vanguard army of Guo Yan's attack, the chaos was temporarily shaken.

In the camps on the east and west sides outside the city, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses under Li Xuan and Guo Yan came to Chang'an City to kill.

Seeing that the victory and defeat were difficult to distinguish for a while, Li Xun ordered his nephew Li Xian to lead troops to surround the palace, and used two cars, one to carry the Son of Heaven, and the other to carry the queen, and made Xu Rong and Li Ru to escort the car, Li Xianam, Li Ru, and Xu Rong hurriedly led the troops, and rushed to the palace in the city with 20,000 soldiers. Li Xian led the troops to rush in, and most of the palace guards were Li Xian's subordinates, who immediately followed Li Xian into the palace. Emperor Xian of Han and Empress Fu were on the dragon bed and were forced down by Li Xian and got out of bed. Emperor Han Xian didn't have time to exclaim, he was stabbed on the neck by Li Xian, how dare he make the slightest sound. Empress Fu was afraid that Li Xian would hurt Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, so she only knew how to cry and was at a loss. Later, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and Empress Fu were both driven into the car by Li Xian, and the rest of the palace attendants walked away. Li Xian led the troops out of Houzaimen, and when Guo Yan's soldiers arrived, they fired arrows in unison, shooting the palace people to death. Weiyang Palace was full of flying blood and flesh, and the scene was extremely miserable. Everywhere was the sound of Li Qi and Guo Yan's soldiers and horses, and the screams of the palace people.

And Li Wei sent people to rob the important ministers in the city, and then led the bear army to Weiyang Palace to cover up, Guo Yan couldn't resist for a while, temporarily withdrew from the palace, Li Xian escorted the car out of the city, and rushed to the camp of Li Dao in the east of the city. Seeing that Emperor Xian of Han was already out of the city, Li urged him to order his troops to slowly retreat. After Guo Yan led the troops into the official, robbed the palace concubines and took the girls, and then ordered people to find the figure of Emperor Han Xian and Queen Fu to no avail, only to know that Li Xuan had obtained the two, and immediately threw the knife and was furious, and actually ordered the deployment to set fire to the palace, and vented his hatred.

The fire opened the sky, and the Chang'an City in the dark night was illuminated by the firelight, and the rolling firelight appeared on the side of the streets of Chang'an, and the tragic images of countless people who were captured by Li Xuan and Guo Yan's soldiers and horses were particularly distinct.

This night, Chang'an City was spent a long time under the sound of fire, fighting, screaming, and crying.
