Emperor Sima Yu Xian'an of the third year of the first month of the first month of the third year of Xinwei. Da Sima Huan Wen led the Jiangzhou Assassin and the leader of the Nanzhong Lang General Huan Chong, the Sizhou Assassin and the Anbei General Huan Xi, as well as the generals of the West Mansion and the North Mansion to gather in the Taiji Hall of Taicheng and ask for the Northern Expedition -

Huan Wen said: "The minister has been out of the palace province for more than 20 years, Bi Feng Rong, and he is diligent and hardworking, but Gu Yijiang and Han are difficult, and they are not the same, and Yiliang Xinping, Ningzhou is the first to serve, the Hanchuan is suspended, the army is wide, the barbarian is strong, the power is upstream, the rivers and lakes are far away, and the Hou Bo is the commander of the order. The minister knows the hardship of giving up this, dares to carry it without complaint, and is willing to devote himself to the Central Plains, which is a shame that the emperor is in the southeast, and the pain god Hua Sangzi is buried in Rongdi. If it is based on the spirit of the temple. The clouds swept through, and the breath was clear. If you are a fake wandering soul, then the ministers will be based on Heluo, come to Erkou in person, publicize the emperor's spirit, and take Qin Zhao with him, far from five years, and the big event will be certain. ”

Emperor Sima Yu ordered the great Sima Huan Wen to lead the Northern Expedition of the military, to the ox wine to reward the army, the same day to swear the Northern Expedition, Shangshu ordered Wang Biaozhi to lead a hundred officials to the ancestral road in the Bailuzhou Wharf, but seeing the Xifu Navy across the river, the flag covers the sun, Huan Wen in Gu's 35,000 sailors, foot cavalry poured out, but also from Jing Xianghuan to requisition 100 ships, 8,000 sailors, and 15,000 soldiers of Jiangzhou Thorn Shi Huan Chong accompanied the Northern Expedition, and in Guangling and Jingkou, there are 60,000 Beifu troops led by Huan Xi, and the power of Long Kanghuan from Jingzhou, Xiangyang to Yangzhou, Guangling, running through the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the Northern Expedition is also the most powerful of the three Northern Expeditions of Huanwen, the first two Northern Expeditions did not send more than 50,000 troops, this time it used Jingzhou, Jiangzhou, Yangzhou a total of more than 100,000 troops, and more than 200,000 people in Sanzhou were recruited to prepare for logistics and transportation.

The hundred officials of the Jin family all know in their hearts that when Huan Wen makes meritorious contributions to Heshuo and collects the time, when the class teacher is still in the court, he will inevitably ask the court for Jiuxi and the king, and at that time, Jin Zuo will be rested. Wang and Xie Da clan don't want to see the end of Huan Wen's usurpation and self-reliance, but the Northern Expedition is the desire of the people, since Yu Liang and Yin Hao, those who want to be famous will raise the banner of the Northern Expedition, so whether it is the emperor Sima Yu, or Wang and Xie Mingmen, they dare not have the slightest criticism of the Northern Expedition, the only thing they can hope for is Chen Caozhi-

When Chen Caozhi entered Jiankang on the 19th, Xie Daoyun and Gu Kaizhi had arrived one day earlier, Xie Daoyun returned to the East Garden of Chen's house, and heard the third brother Chen Shang say that his fourth uncle Xie Wan was seriously ill, and hurried to visit Wuyi Lane, Chen Caozhi arrived the next day and went to Xie Mansion, and saw that Xie Wan, who was not yet 50 years old, was already sick and bedridden, and the famous doctors in Beijing were diagnosed with stomach and intestine stone fistula, Chen Caozhi carefully diagnosed Xie Wan with stone fistula, and also thought that it was stone fistula, which was called cancer in later generations, stomach cancer, Chen Caozhi withdrew from Xie Wan's bedroom, and said gloomily to Xie An and Xie Daoyun: " Wan Shi Gong's disease. Even when Mr. Watagawa is alive, there is nothing he can do. ”

Xie Daoyun's original glimmer of hope was shattered, and he choked with tears.

Xie An sighed: "Repair the short, and the end will be over." ”

Wuyi Lane Xie Mansion is shrouded in gloomy, Hengtang Lu Mansion is beaming, Lu Na and his wife got a letter sent by Lu Weirui at the end of last year, learned that Wei Rui is pregnant, Lu Na and his wife are very happy, this time Chen Caozhi came to visit, he asked Wei Rui about the recent situation, Chen Cao one answered, Mrs. Lu Zhang Wenjun thought that Wei Rui once again took the lead of the right lady Xie Daoyun, very pleased, and said to Lu Na: "Lu Lang, Wei Rui has been pregnant for nearly five months, and she can't bear the bumps of the long distance, so she can't come to Jiankang, how about I take Dao Fu to Qian Tang to accompany Wei Rui in March?" ”

Lu Na agreed.

……

Just when Huan Wen led the army to march in a thousand boats and rode together, the Empress Dowager Yan of Yecheng and the Taifu Murong Ping were plotting to kill Murong Trai, Murong Trai also knew that the situation was dangerous, and he did not return to Yecheng during the New Year's court, and remained in Gongxian, a military town on the south bank of the Yellow River-

Murong Ke's son Murong Kai and Murong Chui's maternal uncle Lan Jian knew that the Queen Mother and the Taifu had made up their minds to punish Murong Chui, and there was no room for recovery, so they sent an envoy to tell Murong Chui and said: "Preemptively, but except for Taifu Ping and Le'an Wang Zang, there is nothing else to do." ”

Murong Chui said: "Flesh and blood cannibalism and chaos in the country, I have to die, and I can't bear to do it." ”

Murong Chui and his uncle Murong Han have very similar personalities, although Murong Han is suspicious of his brother Murong Hao. But he would rather go to Duan Liao and Yuwen than kill each other, Murong Han finally took poison and died-

On the eleventh day of the first month, Murong Kai sent an envoy to tell his uncle Murong Chui: "The inner intention has been decided, and it must be sent early, and the nephew is willing to be the internal response." ”

Murong Chui replied: "If it is really impossible to fill the gap, I would rather avoid it, and the rest is not discussed." ”

The messenger who sent off his nephew, Murong was worried and couldn't sleep all night.

Murong Ling, the son of the world, knew that he could not persuade his father to get rid of Murong Ping and Murong Zang, so he said: "The lord is young, Taifu is jealous, once the disaster occurs, the disease is terrifying, the adults want to protect the whole body of the clan, without losing the righteousness, if you flee to the dragon city, and then apologize, waiting for the lord to be clear, even if you can't forgive, then you will care for Yan and Dai inside, and you will be pregnant with the group outside, and you will be in danger to protect yourself, which is the best policy to protect the whole body of the clan." ”

Longcheng is the former capital of Yan Kingdom. Murong Ke and Murong Chui brothers are known for their prestige there, and Murong Ling persuaded his father to go to Dragon City to protect himself, which is indeed the best choice at the moment.

Murong Chui nodded and said, "That's all." "Immediately ordered the soldiers under his command, dressed up the horses, and will send Longcheng, but Gongxian is in Henan, Longcheng is far away, to go to Longcheng, first to cross the Yellow River, Murong Chui's department has not yet crossed the river, the news has been leaked. Under the orders of King Le'an and Da Sima Murong Zang, all the soldiers in Gongxian County were not allowed to move without permission, and they strictly ordered Wen County to deploy heavy troops to prevent Murong Chui from leading troops to attack Yecheng——

The 20,000 Yan troops in Gong County, most of their families were in Hebei, and when they heard that under the order of the Great Sima Army, they rebelled one after another, and Murong Chen, who was attached to Heyin, and Murong Zhu, who was Junyi, were afraid of being coerced by Murong Trai to rebel, and there were only less than 3,000 soldiers left to follow Murong Trai——

Murong looked up to the sky and sighed: "I have a country that is difficult to vote for, a family is difficult to run, and I am the one who is jealous of the Taifu, I might as well apologize for my sins with death, and you may be saved!" "I want to kill myself with a knife—

Murong Ling hurriedly dissuaded: "There are no eggs under the nest, how can my father not know this!" ”

Murong Chui sighed and said, "What can I do like this? ”

Murong Ling said: "My lord originally wanted to protect the eastern capital with self-integrity, but now he can't cross the river, and he will fail. ”

Murong hesitated and said, "Huan Wenkenna, I'll wait?" ”

Murong Ling said: "Huan Wen has a heart of disobedience, wants to stand on behalf of Jin and is self-reliant, is in need of the assistance of a sage, his father is famous, if he is willing to Nantou, Huan Wen will be downside to greet him, and Chen Caozhi is the master of Huan Wen, Chen Caozhi's father has seen it, he has outstanding knowledge, his son participated in his wedding last year, and he received more courtesy, that Chen Caozhi said something to his son, I didn't think it at the time, but now that I think about it, Chen Caozhi's words have a deep meaning, and it seems that his father's predicament today has long been expected, and it is quite a solicitation. It's amazing! ”

Murong snorted coldly and said, "Duan Si's messenger came to Yecheng to divide the world, and it is very likely that it was out of Chen Cao's scheme. ”

Murong Ling had a good impression of Chen Caozhi, and at this time there was no other way out except Nanben, so he defended Chen Caozhi and said: "It is uncertain whether the messenger was sent by Duan Si or not, and he was killed without interrogation, which is really suspicious. Only those who are bent on getting rid of their father will believe that this is obviously designed by Taifu and his party to frame his father-"

Murong was silent, he also knew that even if there was no matter of Duan Si's messenger, the Empress Dowager and Taifu Murong Ping would not tolerate him, and sooner or later they would find another fault to punish him, and said: "That's it, today's plan, there is another way to leave this!" ”

On this day, Murong Kai and Lan Jian knew that it was difficult to gain a foothold in Yecheng, so they led their families to cross the river and defect to Murong Trai, who gathered soldiers loyal to him, killed white horses and sacrificed to the sky, and allied with the servants.

On the twenty-first day of the first month, Murong Chui took his wife Concubine Xiaoduan and his four sons, as well as Murong Kai, Lan Jian, and Lang Zhongling Gao Bi, and rode to Luoyang with 2,500 steps.

Shen Jin, the general of Luoyang, received a secret letter from Chen Caozhi in June last year, Chen Caozhi asked Shen Jin to pay close attention to Murong Chui's movements, predicting that Murong Chui would surrender to Jiangdong, Shen Jin did not dare to believe that Murong Chui was respected by the King of Wu of Yan State, and his position was high and powerful, how could he defect to Jiangdong! But with the death of Murong Ke, the grievances between Murong Chui and the royal family of Yan Kingdom quickly became prominent, everything was as Chen Cao expected, on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, Murong Chui led the rebels to arrive at the foot of Luoyang City-

Shen Jin was steady, seeing that Murong Chui was outnumbered, he did not dare to let Murong Chui enter the city, but only helped with wine, meat, grain and grass, and then sent a sergeant to lead the way, so that Murong Chui went to Yingchuan to defect to Taishou Gaorou, because Luoyang has few soldiers in the lonely city, and if the army of Yan Kingdom is covered, it will be difficult to resist.

At this time, Murong Chen, who was stationed in Luyang, Murong Zhu of Junyi, and Murong De of Heyin, heard that Murong Chui wanted to defect to Jiangdong, and he had to be ordered by Taifu and Da Sima, so he led a light horse to chase, and in the east of Liang County, Murong Chen's department took the lead in chasing, and after Murong Chui personally broke off, he said to Murong Chen: "I was forced by Taifu, and I can't bear to kill each other, but to avoid trouble in Jiangdong, why should you chase it!" ”

Murong Chen was originally a general of Murong Chui, and he has always respected Murong Chui, listening to Murong Chui say this, the soldiers did not chase, Murong Chui was able to come to Yingchuan smoothly, Yingchuan was too high and gentle to welcome Murong Chui and his son into the city, but Murong De and Murong Zhu's 20,000 foot cavalry then chased after him and surrounded Yingchuan City-

Gao Rou had received the order from Huan Wen, knowing that the Northern Expedition army had embarked on a journey, as long as he held on for ten days and a half months, Murong De and Murong Zhu, who were besieging the city, would naturally lead their troops away when they heard that the military situation on the front line of Xuzhou was urgent.
