Chapter 372: The Rebellion in Chang'an (4)
When did you arrive in Zhongshan?
This is not only the answer that Gu Yong wants to know, but many people, even Biqiu Jian, want to know the answer.
Biqiu Jian is a member of the Wenxi clan and the second son of Hou Biqiu Xing of Gaoyang Township.
According to the rules of the ancients, the family is inherited by the eldest son, of course, this eldest son must also be born from the wife. Biqiu Jian is unfortunately the second son, and he is also the second son of the concubine. In other words, from the day he was born, he was destined to have no chance to inherit the family business. Either attached to the family, or started a new business with the support of the family.
Biqiu Xing is not a simple character.
In the turbulent and turbulent undercurrents of Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling, the two generations of emperors have preserved the family's immortality. It may sound like nothing wrong. But think about it, how many things have happened in these two generations of emperors?
The ban of the party, the rebellion of the yellow turban......
Countless northern clans were wiped out in this turmoil. And the Biqiu clan is still standing in the east of the river, which is not amazing.
At that time, as early as when Li Ru took over the Ministry, he had already been involved with Biqiu Xing.
With Dong Li's rise in the Western Regions, instead of declining because of Dong Zhuo's death, it became more and more prosperous. Biqiu Xing vaguely felt that sooner or later, Dong Li would definitely go out of the Western Regions and sit in Guanzhong.
The son of the family is not like ordinary people.
They were loyal to their families first, and then to the court.
Whatever is best for the family, then they will make decisions accordingly. Although Biqiu Xing knew that Dong Li was referred to by the Kwantung Shi clan. But Biqiu Xing, who is also a martial artist, how can he care about this?
Since the second son, Biqiu Jian, can't inherit the ancestral business, then let him start a career!
The people are not all incompetent, and most of the time, they see far more clearly than ordinary people.
At that time, the earth was frugal, and there was no weak crown.
So in the name of studying, Biqiu Xing secretly sent Biqiu Jian to Han'an City and studied under Liu Hong, a bachelor.
Who is Liu Hong?
On seniority. is the uncle of Liu Bian, the king of the Western Han Dynasty; In terms of knowledge, he is also a scholar of the past and the present, and he is also the nominal teacher of Dong Li.
From this point alone, Biqiu Jian has laid the brand of the Dong family.
Thereafter. Biqiu Jian went home and has been responsible for the contact with Zhongshan Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping. How did these two people get involved with Dong Li? Speaking of which, I have to thank Mr. Luo for his "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
When Li Ru began to cast his net to Jizhou, the first place to consider was the Zhongshan Zhen family.
But Dong Li. The impression of the Zhongshan Zhen family is not very deep, and the background of the Zhen family is really complicated.
At the beginning of the romance, two businessmen were mentioned.
At that time, Liu Bei summoned Xiangyong in the county. It has been financed by two businessmen. One is called Su Shuang, and the other is Zhang Shiping.
Zhang Shiping's real name is Zhang You (you), the word
This is also the situation that Li Ru later inquired about. These two people. The background is not too complicated. Although Zhang You belongs to the branch of the Zhongshan Zhang family. But that was a long time ago. Since Zhang Youzu became a businessman, the Zhang family has eliminated Zhang You's lineage. The name is though it is of the same race. But there has been no contact with each other for a long time.
In contrast, Su Shuang and Zhang You are more in line with Dong Lidi's requirements.
When Li Ru sent someone to contact Su and Zhang secretly, Su Shuang and Zhang You were a little stunned at that time. This is a piece of pie falling from the sky, although there are risks, but once successful, then the benefits obtained will be unimaginable.
Who do businessmen admire the most?
It is not Tao Zhugong, the ancestor of the merchant land, nor is it Zigong, a student of the saint's disciples. Whoever has the best business is none other than the 'strange goods' Lu Buwei. Su Shuang and Zhang You immediately agreed to Li Rudi's invitation after discussion.
At the end of July, after Dong Li had an accident in Jining, Chang'an soon got the news.
And soon after, they got the news of Dong Li. The person who went to Chang'an to deliver the letter was Wuyan.
Wuyan is not Han Chinese, and he is proficient in Xianbei language.
So it was easy to pass through the outside and arrive at Shuofang. and told Chang'an about Dong Li's situation in a secret way.
In fact, Dong Li's situation is not good.
In the first battle outside the Saiwai, Guo Yuan was killed, Dong Li was wounded by an arrow, and Yuan Rongshi was killed and wounded heavily, and there were only more than 80 people left in the final count.
In his life, even when he was in the most embarrassed situation, he had never suffered such a loss!
As soon as he entered the clouds, he immediately retreated into the mountains, not daring to appear easily. On the one hand, he sent Wuyan to report the news, and on the other hand, he secretly observed the situation and waited for Chang'an's rescue. After all, Yunzhong is not Guanzhong, this is Yuan Shao's territory, and Dong Li has to be cautious. Fortunately, although Gao Ran was stationed in the five plains of the clouds, he only blocked all levels.
As for Chang'an, after getting the news of Dong Li, he immediately sent Biqiu Jian to Zhongshan.
They need to borrow the relationship between Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping to take Dong Yan from Yunzhong to Hedong. Do not go to the five plains in the clouds, but to everyone's surprise, there are and the state of longitudinal crossing, after entering Jizhou, starting from Zhongshan country, go to Changshan country, through the party and arrive in Hedong Wenxi. As long as they arrive in Wenxi, the safety of Dong Li and others will be guaranteed.
As for Changshan and Zhongshan, and even Shangdang......
has its own Su Shuang Zhang You is responsible for opening up the link.
When Biqiu Jian arrived in Zhongshan, Su Shuang and Zhang You were already out of the jam. Therefore, Biqiu Jian stayed in Zhongshan, and the other wave of people was led by Dong Tie's team of 300 fighters, under the leadership of the Su family, who went to contact Su Shuang.
"Mr. Gu doesn't have to worry, with Brother Yuanrong coming out, the lord will definitely be able to worry free."
With a wry smile and comforting Gu Yong, Biqiu Jian said to Su You and Zhang Zun again: "Two brothers, although what the Zhen family said is the truth, we still need to be cautious. When someone is sent to monitor the Zhen family's every move, we must also be prepared...... If my estimate is correct and everything goes well, the lord will arrive on this day or two. ”
Su Youzhang obeyed the order and left.
Now that the secret has been revealed, there is no need to hide it. In terms of status. Su is owned by Zhang Zun, and they are all under the command of Biqiu Jian. And at this time, Gu Yong had been worried about the heart, and he put it back in his stomach all of a sudden.
||One
Judging from the actions of the little junior brother, in his heart, there is still a senior brother like me!
But......
Gu Yong suddenly remembered something and asked softly, "Master Biqiu." I don't know Chang'an, what happened first? ”
Changan?
Biqiu Jian was stunned at first, and then smiled: "Mr. Gu, don't worry, although Chang'an is chaotic." But it's still under control! ”
******
In November of the first year of Jian'an, the war outside the Seychelles, which had been entangled for three months, finally ended with the continuous mobilization of the beggar army by He Qi!
This battle. It can be said that the beggar army completed it independently.
He Qijia visited the two and joined forces to defeat Que Ju Xianbei and other troops, killing more than 30,000 enemies
More than 100,000 Xianbei people. According to the rules of the beggar army. These captives should be alive in the army, but this time......
He Qi once again raised the butcher's knife and beheaded 130,000 Xianbei prisoners.
130,000 bloody human heads. Thirteen Beijing temples were stacked on top of each other outside the plug. Blood stained most of the grassland.
Hoyama King!
This is Heqi's current nickname. Like Dong Killing God back then, he became a nightmare for Xianbei people.
Merely. Although the beggar army won a complete victory, it also suffered heavy losses, and its troops were stationed outside the fortress, and they were no longer able to capture Danhan Mountain.
In a sense, the war is not over. Or rather, just the beginning......
But even so, the beggar army stationed troops outside the Saiwai still posed a huge threat to Bingzhou and Youzhou.
Goose feathers and heavy snow, one after another.
Chang'an is already covered in snow.
This year's snow is very heavy, and it has caused quite a few disasters in some areas. In particular, the continuous war in Guanzhong, coupled with the influx of displaced people, there was a shortage of food in Qinchuan, which was 800 miles away in the past, and there were also riots.
On November 11, riots broke out in Yangcheng, Fanxukou, Huicheng and Longxian!
And these places are the weakest points of the Han'an army, and Chen Zhi had no choice but to lead the white army to quell the chaos.
Located in the southeast of Chang'an City, the Ang Gate has been repaired
Ang, according to the interpretation of the "Shuowen", is a container that carries grain. Cover Ang, which means not to be valued and understood.
In fact, among the twelve gates of Chang'an, the Covered Gate is indeed nothing.
If you make an analogy, Chang'an City is a large mansion, then there are four large Yi gates. The rest of the gates, the end corner gate, and the covered gate are even more so, compared to the Anmen of the main gate of the southern city, it is really insignificant.
But now, inside this gate, there is a big man.
Chang'an Ling Zang Hong, if you only talk about official positions, this is not a prominent official position. Now Chang'an is the royal capital set by the king of the Western Han Dynasty, and it is also the place where Dong Yu opened his mansion. There are many officials in the interior of Chang'an City.
But Zang Hong is different.
He was the master of ceremonies when the Kwantung princes first joined forces to discuss Dong, and he was also a famous man all over the world.
Xun Yu once gave him the praise of 'strong man', although he was captured, he was not killed, but exiled to the Western Regions.
At the same time, he gave Zang Hong a question: How to let the scholars and warriors coexist peacefully?
In the blink of an eye, it's been almost ten years......
+.Hong never imagined that one day he would be able to come out of the Western Regions. It's not home, but it still feels kind.
Xun Li values him, Lu Zhi values him, Cai values him, and Yang Xu also values him!
Not only that, but many people, including the King of the Western Han Dynasty, value Zang Hong. So much so that when Xun Yu recommended Fei Wo to serve as the commander of Chang'an, he did not pass it, but was appointed by Zang Hong. Only this, it can be seen that Zang Hong's reputation is famous.
But Zang Hong knows very well that this damn Chang'an Order is not an easy role to play.
In Chang'an City, there are many factions. There is a line loyal to Xun Yu, and there is also a line loyal to the Western Han Dynasty. Although there was no contradiction between Xun Yu and Liu Bian, the king of the Western Han Dynasty, the battle between his vassals began on the day Liu Bian entered Chang'an...... Or more later, as early as the Western Regions, the struggle between the two sides has not stopped.
It's just that during the Western Regions, the power of Liu Bian, the king of the Western Han Dynasty, was not large.
But in Chang'an......
In the room, the fire pit was blazing.
Although it was freezing outside, inside the house was as warm as spring.
+. Hong reclined on the couch, but he frowned, looking preoccupied. The curtain of the door was raised, and a woman with a tall figure and a dignified temperament with obvious alien characteristics walked in from the outside. Holding the tray in his hand, he walked to the couch, put the food on the tray, and then poured a cup of wine for Zang Hong and served it in front of Zang Hong.
"Ah, there's Mrs. Law!"
+.Hong woke up in shock, hurriedly took the wine glass, and said softly.
This woman is the wife that Zang Hong married back in the Western Regions, she is a superb person, and she also has royal blood, and she has a lot of origin.
At the beginning, the Queen of Excellence defected to Dong Yan throughout the country.
Empress Dowager He felt that she belonged to the Han family, so she gave the royal family the surname of Han: Xi.
+. Hong's family is small and has long been missing. A person was lonely in the Western Regions, and the Empress Dowager He designated the queen's sister to marry Zang Hong, named Xi.
This Xi is also quite considerate and knowledgeable.
Because it was a marriage given by the Empress Dowager He, Zang Hong also had great respect for the Xi family.
Xi said: "Husband, these days, you are always worried, is there something upset?" ”
+. Hong sighed and drank the drink.
"When I was in the Western Regions, I wanted to leave. But now that I think about it, the years of life in the Western Regions were the most leisurely and comfortable days of my life...... Madame doesn't know, I really want to resign now and go back to the Western Regions. ”
Xi Shiqi said: "Why does the husband feel this way? ”
"Didn't Madame notice that the atmosphere in Chang'an City has not been normal recently?"
"What rumors are you talking about?"
Xi sneered, "The Metropolitan Governor is brave and strong. The people in the world who can kill the governor of the capital are afraid that they have not yet been born. ”
Xi was born in the Western Regions, and Dong Li's governance of the Western Regions was quite good in the past years.
Therefore, most of the people in the Western Regions are quite grateful to Dong Li, except for those who are hostile. Xi is no exception.
+. Hong smiled bitterly: "I also know that it is a rumor, but if the Governor does not appear for a day, this rumor will not be broken." What worries me is not the rumor itself, but the conspiracy behind the rumor. ”
"Conspiracy?"
"Yes, if the Metropolitan Governor is here, it can deter Xiaoxiao. But now that the governor is not there, there is no leader in the dragons in Chang'an City. This year, there was a snow disaster, and there was a rebellion in Longxian County. General Chen led the army to quell the chaos, and there will inevitably be emptiness in this Chang'an City. If anyone takes advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble, I fear that the work that the Governor and the King have painstakingly worked on will ...... You also know that the vitality of the beggar army was greatly damaged, and the annoying army and the Xuanfeng army were entangled, and it was difficult to get out for a while. ”
Xi Shi let out an exclamation and covered his mouth.
"Do you mean that someone will rebel?"
"I don't know if there will be rebellion, but I do know that there are some people who don't want to live under the Grand Governor."
As soon as Xi was about to speak, a family member outside the door came to report: "My lord, Dr. Fat and Master Jin ask to see you." ”
+. Hong Wen listened, frowning.
He hesitated, then stood up abruptly, "Please, I'll be there later." ”
