Chapter 56 Passing on the edict, Tian Jing is in danger
When Emperor Xian saw Tian Jing agree, he was relieved, and after a while, he said, "I said that Aiqing is a trustworthy person." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoDong Qing's family, please come out. With that, Dong Cheng walked out of the corner gate behind Emperor Xian and met Tian Jing.
Tian Jing was very unhappy in his heart, because he risked his life to take Emperor Xian out of Chang'an, and did so many things for him, but Emperor Xian still treated himself in this way. It's really an emperor's mental trick, and it's really unpredictable.
Tian Jing gave Dong Cheng a salute, and Dong Cheng smiled, "The tens of thousands of elite soldiers under the command of General Zhengbei are exactly what the saints rely on. If you can get rid of the Cao thief this time, the saint will definitely reward the general heavily, but I am afraid that in a few years, your position will be above the old man. With that, find a place to sit down, and the three of them discussed.
Emperor Xian said: "Can Tian Qing know about General Zuo's recapture of Xuzhou by Liu Bei?" ”
Tian Jing said, "I've heard a little. ”
Emperor Xian said, "Before General Zuo left Xudu, he once offered me a plan. If he raised troops in Xuzhou, Cao Cao must have personally led the troops to fight. When the time comes, Xu Du is empty. We can contact the courtiers loyal to the Han family to seize the opportunity to seize the military power of Xu Du and control Cao Cao and his henchmen. Then he could order Fu Wan to occupy Luoyang and Henan County, Tian Qing sent troops to Hanoi, Zhang Xiu controlled Hongnong, and cut off the connection between Guanzhong and Xu Du. At that time, Cao Cao's rear was in chaos, and there was no intention of fighting in front of him, so if he withdrew the army, he had to take advantage of Liu Beijun. In this way, the thief can be removed. I wonder what you two think? ”
Tian Jing listened, thought about it carefully, and said, "I thought Liu Bei was a sincere gentleman, but I didn't want this person to act so viciously. Holy Lord, please think about it, Cao Cao's generation of traitorous males, if we really control Xu Du and control his family, we can block Cao Cao's attack. Cao Cao Shuai led an army of 100,000 outside, knowing that if he didn't break through Xu Du, he would be defeated and killed, what do you say he would choose. He will definitely not hesitate to attack Xu Du and burn all the jade. ”
Hearing Tian Jing say this, Emperor Xian and Dong Cheng were also stunned, but they didn't expect this?
Tian Jing said again, "I said that Liu Bei was vicious, and it was precisely for this reason that he hoped that we would help him attract Cao Cao in Cao Cao's rear, so that he would have more time to digest the results of the battle in Xuzhou." But it was the best solution for us. Because our strength is not as good as Cao Cao's now, we are afraid that we will hit the stone with an egg if we act hastily. ”
Emperor Xian said, "If it is according to Tian Qing's opinion, what should we do?" ”
Tian Jing said, "If it is a decision, it will still be according to the original plan, but after we occupy Xudu, we will immediately withdraw our troops to Luoyang and defend it according to the Tiger Prison." Then ask the Holy Edict to announce Cao Cao's crimes, and call on the princes of the world to crusade against Cao Cao. ”
Xian Di said, "This plan is very good, why did Aiqing say that it was the next policy." ”
Tian Jing smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid that the combat strength of our soldiers is not as good as Cao's army." Once the Tiger Prison is breached, our defeat is assured. At that time, I am afraid that the Holy One will inevitably run around and hide with me and others. ”
Emperor Xian thought about the situation when he came out of Chang'an that day, and he really didn't want to accept this situation in his heart. Then he said, "That's the best way to go." ”
Tian Jing said, "Liu Bei is only afraid that he won't last long in Xuzhou. If Liu Bei is defeated, this Cao Yuan will inevitably fight, and when Cao Yuan fights, if Yuan Shao wins, we will first base Xudu, and then attack Xuzhou and Yuzhou. At that time, the power has been formed, and it is not difficult to confront Yuan Shao. Moreover, we occupy a great position of righteousness, and Yuan Shao does not dare to attack the saint at the risk of the world's disapproval. If Cao Cao wins, Cao Cao will definitely be involved in the Jizhou war. When the time comes, he will not be in Xudu for a long time, and we will have an opportunity to take advantage of it. The key now is to build up strength and cultivate more people who are loyal to the Holy One. ”
Emperor Xian felt justified after hearing this, "In this way, we should think about it in the long run." ”
As soon as Emperor Xian's words came out, Dong Cheng's face changed a little, and said: "The edict given to me by the Holy Lord, I have already summoned the Yueqi Captain Wang Ziyi, the Changshui Lieutenant Seed Collection, the Yilang Wu Shuo, the Zhaoxin General Wu Zilan and others signed their respective names on the Clothes and Belt Edict, and just waited for the Holy Lord's order to launch a major event." ”
After hearing this, Emperor Xian said angrily, "I only ask you to ask them what they think, why do you make your own decisions, you are really angry with me, Tian Qing has a good plan now." ”
Tian Jing said, "As long as the people General Dong Cheng is looking for are trustworthy, it doesn't hurt to inform them to endure for a while." The key is that the tone must be strict, and the news must not be left. Guo Jia has eyeliner everywhere in Xudu, and once the news leaks out, I'm afraid that things will not be easy. ”
But I thought in my heart, the people on this edict are all small roles, if you want to be a little bit afraid or can't, could it be that the emperor has other means, and I didn't tell me. Fu Wan is the father of the queen, and there is no problem in being loyal to the emperor, but he is far away in Luoyang. Dong Cheng's original power was in Weiwei, but now he has basically been replaced by Cao Cao, and his power in Xudu is also limited. Then in addition to the soldiers and horses of the city guards and guards in the city of Xudu, the ones who held the military power were the ruling Jinwu Emperor Fu Li and the tiger captain Zhang Quan. Tian Jing didn't know about Huangfu Li, but Zhang Quan had a good relationship with him and knew that he was Zhang Xiu's son. Tian Jing didn't want to think about it anymore and said, "In short, I don't think it's time to raise troops to fight Cao now. I am now very short of grain and grass in Hedong, and I am thinking of raising it. And after the Luoyang Lieutenant ambushed there, although there were more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, all their grain, grass and ordnance were supplied by Cao Cao, and now they still hope to be able to think in the long run. ”
Emperor Xian said, "You two go back first, let me think about it all night." We'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
Tian Jing and Dong Cheng went out of the emperor's study, and Tian Jing was wearing the clothes of a guard and went out with Jia Shun from the palace gate. Dong Cheng left through the corner gate behind the palace. He has been in the guard for many years, and although Cheng Yu has been replaced by a middle-level officer, there are still many henchmen in the guard.
As soon as Dong Cheng saw the palace, he wanted to go to the prince's mansion first and tell him about today's events. Don't miss any of them. How do you know that as soon as he took a few steps, he was stopped by a person, it was Wei Wei Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu said with a smile, "The general of the chariot cavalry came out of the palace so late, isn't there something important about the saint, the general of the chariot cavalry is willing to say it, and let us share the worries of the saint together." ”
Dong Cheng said angrily, "Cheng Yu, you are so bold, I am the general of the chariot and cavalry, and you can ask what the Holy Lord has to explain to me?" ”
Cheng Yu still said with a smile, but he didn't smile a little, "Dong Cheng, do you know that Wu Shuo, the speaker of the council, is now in the water prison of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he said that the general of the Che Cavalry intends to rebel." I waited for you outside the palace for a long time, if nothing else, to invite the general to confront Wu Shuo. After that, he said to the guard behind him, "Take it with me left and right!" ”
Dong Cheng's heart was half cold when he heard Wu Shuo's name, and now when he heard that Cheng Yu was going to take him, he said angrily, "I am an official of the imperial court, and I will also be the one who will be the court captain." What right do you have to arrest me. ”
Cheng Yu ignored him, and directly asked Dong Cheng to be tied up and stuffed into a sack and taken to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After Tian Jing left the palace, he and Leping went back to the shop directly, and Zang Shun had been waiting for a while. The three of them haven't seen each other for a long time. After a while, the banquet was placed, and Tian Jing, Zang Shun, Leping, and Liu Meng drank happily.
Liu Meng said, "I went to the East Gate today, but I didn't know that Captain Zang was sent to the suburbs. It made me easy to find for a while. ”
"Go to the suburbs, what day is this? Do you know why? Tian Jing asked Zang Shundao.
Zang Shun said, "I don't know why, but this morning I suddenly received an order from General Li Dian to go to the suburbs for training, and now the camp is thirty miles away." ”
Tian Jing asked, "It's just that you shoot a school, or are there other people." ”
Zang Shun said, "The men and horses of the five schools of the Northern Army have been sent out, and now only the men and horses of Li Dian's headquarters are responsible for the defense of the city gate. But the general thinks there is something wrong with this? ”
Tian Jing thought that the name of the prince uniform of the captain of Yue Qi and the name of the lieutenant of Changshui on the edict of his clothes and belts was a little puzzled. Could it be that Cao Cao's people already knew the situation, but when they thought about it carefully, they felt that it was impossible. Just as he was wondering, Star came back from the outside in a hurry.
As soon as he entered the door, he said, "General, no, I got the news." A brother found that Dong Cheng, the general of the chariot cavalry, was arrested by Cheng Yu and others. ”
When Tian Jing heard this, the wine glass suddenly fell to the ground. "Pack your bags and get out of the city quickly." It's urgent, and it's too late to elaborate, so I'll tell you the reason on the way. ”
Star's men took flying hooks and ropes, and Tian Jing and the others took their blades and were about to go out, but they saw a member of the door, General Cao Jun, wearing a helmet and armor, and led more than 50 people to block the door.
Seeing this, Liu Meng was about to kill, Tian Jing stopped him and looked at what he was saying.
The general of the Cao army asked the soldiers behind him to guard the door, and he stepped forward to slam the door by himself, "Captain Zang Shun can be inside." ”
Zang Shun could hear people's voices and knew that it was his brother Zang Ai. Then he said, "Brother, come in, the younger brother is inside." ”
As soon as Zang Ai came in and saw that Tian Jing was also there, he was taken aback at first. Then he saluted everyone and told them what had happened. It turned out that after Zang Ai followed Cao Cao, Cao Cao arranged for him to serve under Cao Ang in the Yulin Army. Today, I received an order to close the four gates and arrest the thieves. Zang Ai accidentally heard that there was a brother Zang Shun's name in the chaotic party, so he was ready to go out of the city to let him escape, but when he arrived at the city gate, he heard that Zang Shun would enter the city in the afternoon. I couldn't help but summon it, and I looked around to find it.
Tian Jing and Zang Ai have a relationship, which is far less close to Zang Shun. But at this critical juncture, he couldn't help but not explain the situation. "Now that Zang Ai is serving under Cao Cao, we are each our own master. I received the edict of the Holy Lord today to punish Cao Cao, and in the two times, either you die or I live, and there is no room for maneuver. We are going to think of breaking out of the city, and if Zang Ai cares about his feelings, he can treat it as if he has not seen us at all. ”
Zang Ai smiled bitterly, "It's not a secret, originally I wanted to persuade Zang Shun to return to Cao Gong, but now it seems impossible." On that day, my father asked me to be a hostage, in addition to wanting to keep his position, he may not have the intention of letting Zang Shun vote for you and I for Cao Cao. But now that life and death are at stake, I can't help but think about it. You will change into the clothes of the Yulin Army, and I will take you out of the city. ”
Zang Shun was overjoyed when he heard this, "I said thank you, big brother." Tian Jing also hugged his fists, "Da En did not say thank you. And they went down and prepared.
