Chapter 307: Return to the Eastern Capital
Since Luo Zhaoyun left the palace that day, he no longer dared to enter the palace easily, and stayed at home for a few days, and there seemed to be no rumors and abnormalities, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
As the New Year approached, Emperor Yang of Sui announced at the court meeting that all ministers and envoys would go to Luoyang City for the New Year.
Yang Guang's decision could not be refuted and hindered, the ministers stayed in Xijing for a month, and then obediently accompanied them and returned to Luoyang, and most of the ministers' families had already been settled in Luoyang.
Hundreds of thousands of Imperial Forest Army escorted, the large team was mighty, east of the letter Guguan, to Luoyang.
Luo Zhaoyun was also among them, and this time he brought Xiao Yiyi with him, after all, the relationship between the two was confirmed, and they had already regarded her as their concubine, and even after Old Man Luo knew about it, he did not object.
Liuxi temporarily stayed in the courtyard in Xijing, and instructed the spies and meticulous workers of Tianchen Pavilion to keep an eye on her to see if she had any personal contact with the Yang family.
Luoyang City, although the scale is not as good as Chang'an, but the prosperity is better, and the households that live in it are all the dignitaries and nobles who have moved away from Chang'an City, as well as the wealthy families near Luoyang, etc., all of whom have moved into Luoyang City.
If you want to ask about the ancient and modern things, please only look at Luoyang City!
This is the core of the Central Plains, but also the north of the famous gathering place, in the history of China, too many ancient capitals, dynasties here to take root, looking down on the world.
The convoy entered Luoyang City one after another, and many people along the way welcomed the return of the king on both sides of Dingding Street.
It doesn't matter whether it is welcomed from the heart or driven by officials behind it, under the prosperous era, there should be such prosperity and noise.
The envoys of the twenty-seven countries in the Western Regions, including kings and dukes, saw such majestic cities, wide roads, and the people of the Central Plains wearing gorgeous robes, and felt that the Central Plains was rich and rich, and it was really true, and they all planned to trade with the Central Plains Dynasty, and some even planned to live here for a long time and no longer return to the barren Western Regions.
The gongs and drums are noisy, the horns are ringing, and under the grand celebration, Emperor Yang of Sui sat on the high platform and nodded slightly, which can be regarded as greeting the people next to the street, that kind of complacent demeanor, the vanity of opening up the territory, so that Yang Guang no longer takes the people of the world in his eyes, what he wants to talk about is the ancient sages, and the future history works.
"Whew!"
At this moment, a cold arrow shot over, extremely powerful, completely iron arrow, shooting straight towards Yang Guang.
"Escort!" Yu Chengdu rode his horse in front of the dragon chariot, immediately made a decision, waved the phoenix wings gilt boring, swept upward, and the iron arrow that was flying in the middle of the collision was blocked.
"Kill the faint king!" In the crowd, some warriors suddenly burst out, with horizontal swords and daggers in their hands, dressed like ordinary people, round-necked shirts, turbans, or horned hats, drew their weapons and pounced on Yang Guang's convoy.
"There are assassins!"
"Protect Your Majesty!"
The guards immediately took action and surrounded Emperor Yang of Sui's car, and suddenly the sound of weapons clashing, as well as shouts of killing, screams, and the handover of short troops between the two sides had already started.
Emperor Yang of Sui's expression froze, as if he couldn't believe that someone wanted to assassinate him, and scolded him for being a faint king, which was simply inexplicable and slandered what he had done.
"A mob, how can this be justified!"
Yang Guang was so angry that his face turned pale, he thought he was comparable to the Holy Monarch, surpassing the first emperor, the great cause of the past few years is obvious to all, and it is beneficial to the future, but he was scolded as a faint monarch, which is really worse than the heinous.
On the roof of a house a hundred meters away, there stood a man, with his face covered, wearing a green shirt, pulling up an iron bow, swishing and three arrows.
"Daring fanatic!" Yu Chengdu roared, sat on horseback, waved his long soldiers, and knocked down the iron arrows one by one.
The figure in Tsing Yi didn't go back to the room, turned around and jumped into the streets of Fang City, and disappeared without a trace.
Soon, more than 100 people who assassinated Yang Guang were killed or wounded, and they were jointly exterminated by Qianniu Bei Guards and Ouchi Guards, and some live mouths were captured, but the thugs who were caught all fell to the ground, foamed at the mouth, and committed suicide by taking poison.
Emperor Yang of Sui's face was heavy and very ugly, and he was slapped in the face in front of many ministers and envoys, so the murderous intent emerged, and shouted: "Check, block Luoyang City for me, so that the surrounding markets must not let go of the thieves, and the people here are not allowed to leave, and they are tortured to ask if they are harboring other henchmen." ”
"Whoa!" Yu Chengdu, as the former general of the imperial army, immediately transferred the guards to get people after receiving the order.
All the ministers had different expressions, and they were all speculating in their hearts about who was so bold as to assassinate His Majesty.
Is it the old royal remnants, or the gate valve forces, the rivers and lakes, the green forests, and the ancient sects?
Luo Zhaoyun was also alarmed, but he was not on an errand in the guard army now, so it had nothing to do with him to arrest criminals and protect the holy driver.
He is also speculating, which side will do it? Historically, there are few references to assassins and envoys, and the Book of Sui was written by the early Tang Dynasty, and there can be no record of it due to many taboos.
This unexpected turmoil made Emperor Yang of Sui feel irritable, originally thought that he was high above, almost a holy monarch, but he was slapped in the face under the eyes of all people, and was assassinated by a large number of killers on the street, at the foot of the imperial city, on Dingding Street, this is a serious provocation to the imperial power, if he can't catch the man who shot the arrow just now, find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and break the corpse into thousands of pieces, Emperor Yang of Sui will not swallow this mouthful.
Luo Zhaoyun sat in the car, took Xiao Yiyi and the maidservant Xiuying, and came to Luo's mansion in Luoyang.
This mansion is larger than the new mansion of Chang'an City, the decoration is luxurious and atmospheric, the main gate can be open to the avenue of Fang City, and it is not subject to the constraints of the Li Fang system, and you can not go through the Fang Gate.
There is also a house tablet in front of the door, engraved with the three big characters of the crown Wuhou, because of the military general's origin, so the main gate has a guard with a knife guard, in addition, a pair of lifelike stone lions next to it, there is a weapon rack on the left side, there is a horse pillar on the right side, it is very majestic and magnificent.
"Alang!" A woman's slender shadow rushed out of the courtyard. (To be continued.) )
