As soon as the sky was slightly bright, Cheng Yun and his party rushed to Hangu Pass, Cheng Yun stretched his waist, "Let's go to the pass first to rest, eat something, and after half an hour, go out of the customs and return to Luoyang!" ”

When Yang Ding heard this, he dispersed the soldiers under his command and entered Hangu Pass one by one to avoid the vigilance of the guards of the pass, Yang Ding and Guan Hai Chu Yan followed Cheng Yun in.

After eating something, Cheng Yun felt a little tired, cheered up, and asked Xiao Er for a pot of tea, barely refreshing, "Renovate, let's get ready to go." ”

Yang Ding seems to be in good spirits, staying up late is nothing to him, and when he ordered to go down, Guan Hai couldn't help but laugh when he saw his Cheng Yun state, "If you can't do it, you can say it earlier, let's see if there is a carriage for sale, and you can buy a carriage." ”

"That's what to do." Cheng Yun waved his hand, "It doesn't matter at night, I didn't develop this habit, the carriage is too slow down the travel speed, let's ride back directly, in a hurry!" ”

took the lead in turning over and getting on the horse, and the group gathered outside the gate, Yang Ding counted the numbers, and the number was correct, "Let's go!" ”

When Cao Xing and the four of them heard that the whole army of Xiyuan was coming, they panicked and accelerated to Hangu, which was not far from Hangu, and the mental state of the soldiers under his command was not bad, after all, they could rest in the first half of the night, and they continued to march in the second half of the night.

Cheng Lian rode a horse and waited for Cao Xuan and his archer troops, "This Hangu Pass is not far away, if we don't meet anyone again, we will leave!" ”

Cao Xing climbed high and looked out, the frost was still relatively heavy today, and the field of vision was white, "There is still some distance, don't worry, if it is really not at the pass, let's go." ”

Before dawn, Han Dangbu found traces of Cao Xing and the others stationed, and hurriedly summoned other departments to speed up, the thief might be in front, so Duan Xuan Hu Zhen and others, who were originally going to continue to expand the search range, slowly narrowed the scope and surrounded them, and the speed was also raised, and they chased after Cao Xing and the others.

However, it was said that Lu Bu and others made a big fuss in front of the Chengfu Gate, because the numerical advantage could not be exerted, but they were slaughtered by Xu Shu with thousands of archers from Yulinwei, and there were only more than 10,000 soldiers left under his command, so they abandoned Luoyang and also came out of the West Gate, preparing to give the unsuspecting Xiyuan Army a head-on attack.

Whether it works out or not, Lu Bu doesn't plan to go back to Luoyang to continue to entangle with Cheng Yun's people, he knows that once Wang Yun dies, he will definitely suffer the losses of Cheng Yun's forces in all aspects, it is better to return to Merge Zhou, the sky is high and the birds will fly.

In Luoyang City, the smoke of last night's gunpowder has dissipated, leaving only a blackened bloodstain, faintly telling the residents of the city that all this is not just a nightmare.

As soon as the early dynasty went to court, the Empress Dowager He raised her eyebrows, there are really a lot of people who are lacking!

As soon as the yellow door spoke, the court meeting

At the beginning, Henan Yin Zhu was about to play, Empress Dowager He motioned for him to speak, Zhu's face was full of anger, "The minister wants to impeach the hussar general Cheng Yun and the city gate captain Lu Bu, these two led the army to fight in Luoyang City last night, causing panic among the people, and also causing a large number of my Han soldiers to die in civil strife, the crime is unforgivable!" Please make a decision. ”

Right Zhonglang General Liu Fan immediately seconded the proposal, "The minister can testify for Henan Yin's words, the minister saw with his own eyes that the captain of the Xiyuan Army led the troops to attack the city gate captain soldiers of the north city wall, in order to stop the senseless killing, the minister boldly ordered the city gate captain Hou Cheng to open the city gate and let them out, and talked with the city gate captain Lu Bu, and found that the west city wall was also broken by the captain of the military academy Huang Zhong. ”

Zhang Wen didn't know the cause of this incident, but he understood the follow-up things, and he was very sad, and said, "Last night, Situ Wang Yun falsely passed the holy decree and wanted to lead the rest of the Xiyuan Army to attack the Weiwei Mansion, but he was recognized by the Queen Mother and Jin Wu, and died on the spot. ”

Taifu Yuan Kui stood up, the Yuan family, who was originally more friendly to Cheng Yun, has now completely parted ways with him, after the battle last night, the Yuan family had to stand on the opposite side of Cheng Yun, "Empress Dowager, this matter should be explained by the hussar general himself." ”

Before Cheng Pu stood up, Empress Dowager He shocked the ministers of the court and the central government with a word, "The hussar general received the decree of the palace and went to Hedong to recruit the Baibo Yellow Turban thief, and the captain of the city gate, Lu Bu and Situ Wang Yun, wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the hussar general, and entered the palace to ask for the order, but the palace noticed that it was abnormal, and then ordered the executive Jin Wu to take over the Xiyuan Army with the edict of the palace." ”

Sikong Yuan Pan frowned, and stepped forward to speak, "Queen Mother Rongyu, we discussed the matter of the Baibo Yellow Turban at the court meeting before, but there was no detailed result, and suddenly ordered the hussar general to surrender the Yellow Turban with a decree, which is not in accordance with the rules. ”

Empress Dowager He was stunned, "Rules? According to the rules, he shouldn't have rebelled, but he still rebelled, and you talked about the rules with this palace? As long as you can put down the rebellion, why not use this rule? A few years ago, Sikong crusaded against the Han Ma Thief Alliance, and did not make any achievements, is it because he followed the rules? That palace allows you to disobey the rules, go and get rid of them, and replace Huangfu Song to come back as this commonplace! ”

Yuan Peng was very indignant, his face turned red, and he couldn't help but argue, "What is the difference between making rules but not abiding by them, and not making them?" The reason why the White Wave thieves are thieves is because they don't follow the rules, and if we don't follow them, we will be the same kind of people as them! ”

Tai Lieutenant Yang Biao saw that Empress Dowager He and Yuan Peng were a little upset, and hurriedly stood up to play a round, "The Empress Dowager is angry, Sikong will also calm down first, and the hussar general will go to Hedong to recruit the White Wave Thieves and postpone the discussion in advance, let's talk about the problem of Lu Bu, the captain of the city gate, and Huang Zhong, the captain of the military colonel." ”

Cheng Pu stood up, this is the right time for him to stand up, after all, he is Cheng Yun's father,

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, it is because of the news that Lu Bu, the captain of the city gate, got the news from somewhere, united with Situ Wang Yun, and ordered the general to go out of the city to ambush the hussar general, and the captain of the army couldn't sit still, and was ready to go out of the city to meet the hussar general.

Zhang also stood up, "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, the hussar general is dedicated to the country, regardless of his own safety, he goes to danger, he deserves to be protected, but he is calculated by the traitor, if it is not for the heavy responsibility of protecting the palace and inconvenient to stay away, I want to personally get rid of the traitor and protect the hussar." ”

Yuan Feng, the servant, objected, "There are extenuating circumstances, but the law does not tolerate it." The Queen Mother, Your Majesty, and the Captain of the Military Academy should have reported to Her Majesty the Queen Mother with a piece of paper, and Her Majesty the Queen Mother decided whether to send troops and how to deal with Situ Wang Yun and Chengmen Captain Lu Bu and others, instead of insisting on going their own way, ignoring the rules and regulations, and sending troops privately. The minister asked Her Majesty the Queen Mother to punish him for his crimes. ”

Empress Dowager He is very irritable, why are they so old-fashioned one by one? Rules, rules, everything is rules, and the rules are not made by me and the emperor? annoyed me, and directly changed the rules!

Of course, this is her heart's words, the rules have been formulated and perfected by the emperors of the two Han Dynasty and the twentieth generation for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to change it at will, even if she is the acting queen mother.

Li Ru observed the words and knew that the Empress Dowager He did not want to talk about this topic, so he hurriedly spoke, "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, the ministers see that this matter needs to be discussed again, and after the city gate captain Lu Bu, the captain of the military academy Huang Zhong, the hussar general Cheng Yun and others all return to the court, they will personally state it." ”

Seeing that Sanyuan still wanted to speak, Empress Dowager He was stunned, "What Shaofu said is extremely true, just do what Shaofu said!" Now that there are so many shortages of the three princes and nine secretaries in the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, it is necessary to recruit famous people at home and abroad to come to serve, and this matter will be handed over... Taiwei is in charge, Taiwei Yang has prepared a list and uploaded it to me. ”

Yang Biao obeyed the order, and the three Yuan undoubtedly discussed, Yang Biao was originally a member of the family, although he didn't know why he had recently separated from the Yuan family, but there was no bias towards Cheng Yun, which made people feel that he had become a neutral Yuan Peng.

Empress Dowager He was annoyed when she saw these old stubborns, and thought for a while, "Shangshu ordered Cui Lie to draw up a decree, Xuanzuo General Huangfu Song entered the court to report on his work, and the soldiers under his command were temporarily assigned to that Jing Zhaoyin..."

"Gai Xun." Li Ru reminded the Empress Dowager He, and the Empress Dowager He snorted, "For the time being, it will be led by Jingzhao Yin Gaixun, continue to defend the imperial mausoleum, and resist the Han Ma Thief Alliance." ”

Cui Lie was still in the shock of being wiped out by the Qingliu Party in the DPRK, and he didn't hear the Empress Dowager He talk about him, and the Empress Dowager He was very angry when she saw him, and slapped the table, "Cui Lie! If you can't do this Shangshu Ling, you can leave it to someone else to do! ”

Cui Lie sighed, "Minister... Beggar bones. ”
