Chapter 484: Chang'an (3)
For Chang'an, the Western Regions are too far away!
As the saying goes, far water can't quench your thirst. \\, Qb5, Com, Tu Cheng understands, and the clans in Chang'an are also very clear in their hearts.
Ban's exit from the Western Regions was only their second move.
If he wants to control Chang'an, Tu Cheng has another arrangement. For Tucheng, this hand is his most critical chess piece.
On August 14, the autumn wind rose.
The wind blew the clouds into the sky without a trace. In the night, there are stars twinkling. Although it is a little chilly, it indicates that tomorrow will be a good day. A good weather will certainly bring a good mood. But the mood is good or bad, just look at tonight.
Tu Cheng is equipped with soft armor inside and a robe on the outside.
Deng Zhan followed by him, and the two went straight to the imperial city.
The Imperial City of Chang'an is very similar to the Imperial City of Luoyang. In other words, the imperial city of Luoyang was basically built according to the model of Chang'an.
It is divided into two houses, north and south.
The north side is where the harem is located, and the south side is the main hall of Weiyang Palace.
The captain of Nangong guarding Nangong is Liu Zhen. Since Dong was sealed off the country, in order to alleviate the suspicion from the clan, Dong handed over the guards of the north and south palaces to Zongzheng Liu He to arrange. Doing this is not because Dong is afraid, but because he hopes to make the clan peaceful.
There are 3,000 people in the North Palace, 5,000 people in the South Palace, and 8,000 palace guards in the joint attack.
There are also 800 guards, which are in the hands of Tong Yuan. In other words, Dong returned the palace to Liu Wei a long time ago.
Although Liu He is said to be Zongzheng, he is also a relative of the emperor.
But Liu Wei didn't know what to think about, although he handed over the north and south palace guards, he always held the guards and was in charge of them by someone he trusted. Since Liu Wei often stayed overnight in Bailiangtai, the 800 guards were divided into two classes. Stationed around Bailiang Terrace.
Tucheng Deng Zhan went all the way unimpeded and came to Bailiang Terrace.
The guards on duty also knew the two of them, and knew that Tu Cheng was Liu Bian's Buddhist teacher, and Deng Zhan was the protector of the Shamen of Qingliang Temple. Bailiang Terrace is very large, with 365 steps, and it really takes some strength to walk forward.
At this time, Liu Wei was talking about Buddhism with Tong Yuan in the palace.
There was Yang Qian waiting on the side. would interject from time to time, making Liu Wei laugh twice. Over the years, Tong Yuan has also been proficient in Buddhist affairs.
Tucheng Deng Zhan came in, and was about to perform the three bows and nine bows, but Liu Bian stopped them.
"Master Figure, Master Deng, don't be polite...... Yang Qian sat for the two teachers. ”
Although Liu Wei was dissatisfied with Tu Cheng's messing around outside in his name. But the punishment has also been punished, and the scolding has also been scolded. Tu Cheng has been very peaceful in the past two years. Liu Wei was also very satisfied with him. Between the words, there is respect, but also with a sense of intimacy.
"Master Map, Master Deng, come to me so late, what's the matter?"
Tu Cheng smiled slightly, "There is indeed a Buddha treasure to offer!" ”
"Oh. Hurry up. ”
Liu Wei is not interested in government affairs, but he is full of curiosity about everything in Buddhism. His eyes widened, he looked at Tu Cheng and said, "What Buddha treasure did Tu Shi get again?" But the relics you talked about last time? I'm really curious, so I'll show it to me. ”
Tu Cheng said: "Saintly, the Buddha treasure is naturally presented. However, this treasure condenses the divine power, and it should be taken into a quiet room. Otherwise, the power in the treasure will cause harm to ordinary people and others...... Let's go to the Buddha hall. How about a closer look at it? ”
Tong Yuan frowned slightly, and was a little displeased with Tu Cheng's pretending to be unfathomable.
Liu Wei was really interested, and nodded again and again, "Just follow what Master Tu said, and go to the Buddha Hall with me...... Let's go with the children. ”
Tong Yuan hurriedly said: "This minister's luck! ”
But Deng Zhan closed his pupils and clenched his fists inadvertently.
The Buddha hall is behind Bailiang Terrace and is very quiet. Except for a handful of chamberlains who are in charge of cleaning here. Ordinary people would not be able to approach without Liu's consent. Liu Wei and Tu Cheng walked into the Buddhist hall one after the other. Tong Yuan and Deng Zhan followed.
"Diagrammer, here it is. But I don't know...... Yes. What are you doing? ”
Liu Wei smiled and turned around and said. But that's only half the story. His eyes widened in horror, and he swallowed back the words that had come to him.
I saw that Tong Yuan's neck was holding a narrow sharp sword two feet long.
In the other hand, he also held a sword, which was pressed against Yang Qian's neck, his face was cold, and he couldn't see the slightest emotional fluctuation, just like a stone carving.
At this point, Tu Cheng let out a long breath.
"Holy Lord, please read this silk first!"
Tu Cheng held a scroll of brocade silk, on which were names written in blood, and the color turned dark red.
Liu Wei looked at Tu Cheng vigilantly, and after glancing at it, he frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Tu Cheng, what is this?" ”
"This is a joint concert of loyal and righteous people, hoping that the emperor can return to the throne, get rid of treachery, and return my Han Dynasty to the heart of the country."
Liu Wei's face became gloomy.
With a shadow in his eyes, "Loyal and righteous people? Would a loyal man use such a means to coerce me? ”
"In extraordinary times, use extraordinary means."
Tu Cheng's face did not change and said in a deep voice: "Tu Cheng also knows that this move is inappropriate, but for the sake of my Han family, he has to make this decision." ”
Liu Wei sneered: "Tu Cheng, you are just a person, how is my Han family, what does it have to do with you?" ”
"Although Tu Cheng is not a Han Chinese, he is now a Han people. That is, Hermes-Epitek, so naturally he should share the worries of the saints. Tu Cheng said: "The minister also knows that now that the traitorous ministers in the court are in charge, the emperor has already had the intention to get rid of him." Now, it's a good time, please don't hesitate anymore! ”
In those words, all the problems were pushed on Liu Wei's head.
Liu Wei's face turned red, "I think you are the biggest traitor!" ”
Although Tu Cheng didn't say who the traitor was, Liu Wei also knew that he was talking about Dong. The most terrifying thing is that Dong is not in Chang'an, and the clan is also involved. Liu Wei didn't understand. Now it looks like the country is about to return to its glory and prosperity...... No, it was even more prosperous than when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in power, so why didn't those clans accept Dong? Not only do they not help, but they always add to the chaos.
Did Liu Wei ever suspect Dong?
Yes!
But when the country was sealed, Liu Wei and Dong had an extremely secret meeting, which only Tong Yuan, Liu Wei and Dong Dong knew.
On that day, Dong entered the palace late at night, very sincerely, and openly and honestly talked to Liu Wei about what happened after the world was settled.
Dong said: "I don't want to be an emperor. Now he is a prime minister. It's already very tiring, I'm good at fighting, killing and killing, I'm not good at being an emperor. I also know that many people suspect me of bad intentions. I also know that you, including the emperor, also have such worries. ”
After all, he has been sharing hardships with Dong Tonghou for more than ten years, and Liu Wei did not hide it that day.
"Dong Qing, I do have such worries."
"The minister doesn't have any big thoughts, the biggest wish in this life. It's about having a home. And this, the minister is already very satisfied. The minister and the emperor, twenty years of joy and sorrow, the emperor should understand the minister. Minister...... In a word, I will never fail the emperor in this life. The minister's greatest wish now is to calm the world and lay a splendid country for the emperor. Just wait for the world to be unified. The ministers immediately retreated to the Western Regions.
In this life, without the emperor's will, you will never go out of Hexi.
But before that, the minister hopes that the emperor can fulfill it, so that the minister can devote all his energy to the war, I don't know if it is possible? ”
Dong has spoken to this point, and he is very familiar with Dong Di and Liu Bian, and he can't say anything anymore.
So after that, Liu Wei simply ignored the affairs of the court and handed them over to Dong to deal with. Even including the golden cicada before Dong came out of his shell. pretended to be stabbed and quietly left Chang'an, Liu Wei also knew it. Although it is said that people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, for Liu Wei and Dong, since that day, the hearts of the two monarchs and ministers have been connected, and there is no mustard for each other.
I didn't expect it......
Liu Wei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Tucheng, you go back to Tianzhu." ”
"Huh?"
"As long as you go now. I can act as if nothing happened. And Deng Zhan, as long as you put down the sword in your hand, I promise that you will not be guilty of the past. ”
Tu Cheng is stupid!
originally thought that Liu Wei would be happy to cooperate with him. But who knows. Liu Wei didn't dump him at all. Although it is said that the arrow is on the bow. Had to send. Tu Cheng was still a little hesitant. Without Liu Wei's nod, this matter would have become complicated.
Just when Tu Cheng hesitated. Liu Wei suddenly made a move.
Don't treat Liu Wei as a powerless waste, after all, he studied swordsmanship with Wang Yue back then, and he has been separated from Dong Bump for many years. It's not good, but it's very sensitive. Tu Cheng was pushed away by Liu Wei's palm, Deng Zhan was stunned, and at this moment of distraction, Tong Yuan arched his back and slammed into Deng Zhandi's arms, and his elbows hit Deng Zhan's chest fiercely.
Deng Zhanwa spurted out a mouthful of blood.
I didn't care about the mercy of my subordinates, the narrow sword buzzed, and he took a wrong step backwards, but his body leaned forward, and the sword penetrated Tong Yuandi's body.
At the same time, Yang Qian pounced on Tu Cheng.
And Deng Zhan fell to the ground after stabbing Tong Yuan with a sword. However, the moment he fell to the ground, the sword in his hand flew out of his hand and hit Liu Weidi's shoulder.
Yang Qian screamed in surprise and was knocked to the ground by Tu Cheng's punch.
"Deng Zhan, you're crazy!"
"You're crazy!" Deng Zhan shouted angrily: "What are you doing with so much nonsense? At this point, do we have a way out? Kill this dog emperor, and when the time comes, we can frame it to those clans, or to the people of the Dong family. Great, set up another emperor. ”
"You ......"
Tu Cheng's words came to his lips, but he had to admit that what Deng Zhan said made sense.
Of course, this thought was just a moment of movement, picked up the sword from the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Deng Zhan, it's not time yet. ”
Over there, Liu Wei covered his shoulders and couldn't help laughing: "What a loyal man!" ”
"Shut up!"
Tu Cheng was annoyed and ashamed, "If it's nonsense, I'll kill you right now...... Hand over the Tiger Talisman, or don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
"I want to guard the Tiger Talisman...... Bald donkey, dream! ”
On the other side, Deng Zhan had already stood up. He looked at Tong Yuan who was lying in a pool of blood, walked over and grabbed Tong Yuan's collar, and dragged Tong Yuan over. On the ground, it leaves a first-class long blood mark. Deng Zhan's complexion was very bad, and his voice became hoarse.
"Your Majesty, hand over the tiger talisman, otherwise Lao Tong's life will not be guaranteed!"
As he spoke, he took out a mutton fat jade bottle from his arms, coughed lightly, and said, "This medicine can stop bleeding." If it had been timely, it might have been able to save the child's life. As long as you hand over the Tiger Talisman...... Of course, you can also watch the old boy die, then I will cut that gelding in front of your ground, inch by inch. Come to think of it, they are loyal to you. If you're ......"
"Shut up!"
Liu Wei's cheeks twitched, staring at Tu Cheng and Deng Zhan, his eyes red.
After a while, he suddenly sighed, "I handed over the Tiger Talisman to you, and let Yang Qian and Tong Shi go!" ”
Deng Zhan sneered.
"Your Majesty, you are a good person...... But you're not a good emperor after all! ”
Liu Wei ignored Deng Zhan, took out a golden tiger talisman from his arms, and threw it to Tu Cheng. Tu Cheng took the tiger talisman and left satisfied.
Deng Zhan squatted down, turned Tong Yuan over, poured the powder from the medicine bottle on his wound, and then threw the bottle to Liu Wei, "If you can behave better today, maybe I will change my mind." It's a pity that you are too weak to be the emperor
Yang Qian picked up the medicine bottle and stopped the bleeding from the wound on Liu Wei's shoulder.
"Deng Zhan, you won't end well!"
"Hehe, save your own life first, and then let's talk!"
At this time, Tu Cheng came back in a hurry.
"Old Deng, it's all ...... Liu Zhen took the guards to the Liangwang Mansion. Whether they succeed or not, this beam cannot be unraveled. An hour later, Liu He will take action...... I have already informed Zhao Yun that he will lead his troops to take control of Chang'an at that time. ”
Liu Wei's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his ears.
"Zhao Yun?"
"Hehe, Your Majesty...... Do you regret it? That's right, General Zhao Yun is also my man. But he is not for anything else, the reason why he is willing to cooperate with me is to take revenge on Dong...... Why, don't you see that his name is also in the blood book? ”
Liu Wei was confused, "Revenge? What grievances do General Zhao and Dong Qing have? Deng Zhan coughed violently, while Tu Cheng laughed, "They don't have hatred, but ministers can create hatred for them!" ”
"Hatred-mongering?"
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten? General Xiahoulan and General Zhao Yun are good friends who grew up together since childhood, and they are like brothers. ”
Liu Wei pointed his finger at Tucheng, "Xiahoulan, Xiahoulan...... Could it be that General Xiahou is ......"
Deng Zhan said sadly: "It was killed by us!" ”
