Chapter Thirty-Six: The Young Dragon Rises Its Head

At two o'clock, Lu Bu was arrested;

At the end of the day, the herald flew out of Chang'an;

At the beginning of the day, Duan Xuan received an order from Dong Zhuo, so he led his troops to be stationed on the periphery of Dinghu Palace to protect the place of the Son of Heaven.

At the same time, Dong Cheng, who had received the military order, surrounded the Zhaoyang Palace.

And Wang Yun, who was still discussing the matter of the king ceremony, and more than ten important ministers of the dynasty were also detained in a firewood room in Dinghu Palace.

"General Feng Han, detaining the minister of the Han court for no reason is the crime of the Zhu clan!" Wang Yun is now wearing a disheveled hair, and his appearance is extremely miserable, but his expression is extremely resolute: "We are running around for the matter of Lord Shang's father being crowned king, and I also ask the general to tell the reason, why are we detained?" ”

"Yes, you can't be humiliated!"

More than a dozen important ministers are all elderly ministers, and their tempers are also hard, although they still hold their heads high in the face of hundreds of sergeants with long knives.

"Lu Bu was arrested, confessed everything, Wang Situ's thief, Chang'an City is already well known~~~"

Before Dong Cheng finished speaking, more than ten old people were shocked, and then they cried and cried, in pain.

Because next, their fate is to die and be wiped out; And the Son of Heaven will have no arms to rely on!

"Ah~~~"

Wang Situ raised his head to the sky and shouted a few times, then beat his chest and paused, remorseful: "The ministers are in danger of His Majesty, damn it!" Damn it! ”

Suddenly, he couldn't lift it in one breath, and fainted directly, so frightened that Dong Cheng hurriedly called the imperial doctor before pulling Wang Yun back to the yang world.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow everything will be decided by Dong Xiang!"

After Dong Cheng left, Wang Situ came back to his senses, remembered what he had just said, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "The matter of punishing thieves!" ”

"Thief thing!"

The eyes that were originally full of dead air instantly glowed with bursts of light, Dong Cheng's words were not hinting that there was a turning point in the matter of punishing the thief!

"Colleagues, if you want to die, you can't die on your knees. And just dressed up, and die generously tomorrow! ”

Wang Yun, who was the leader, had a look of determination in his eyes, and he could only believe it now. The young Son of Heaven has everything ready. And detaining them in the firewood room is a disguised way of protection!

"Ministers, please eat!"

Zhang Liao, the captain of Jianzhang, stepped forward, and dozens of sergeants entered the house with meals and placed them in front of everyone.

"To die. Be a full ghost, too! ”

Walking to the coffee table on the side, Wang Yun took the food handed by the soldiers and ate it in a big gulp, and the rest of the ministers looked at each other, stopped crying, and also sat down to eat.

After eating, Wang Yunyi held it aside, opened the window, and the faint light of the stars fell from the night sky and sprinkled on his face. Touching his gray beard, Wang Situ only had a big decision in his heart: Tonight, the young dragon will raise his head! Tomorrow, the sound of the dragon's chant will shake the heavens and the earth!

"Have the ministers eaten?"

Liu Xie was lying on the dragon couch, listening to Zhang Liao's reply, and he was helpless in his heart, it was Dong Zhuo who arrested them, and I could only hint at them a little now, so as not to make this group of old people heartbroken.

As for whether you can hear Dong Cheng's words. It's up to them to be wise!

"Ministers, you have eaten, and now you are asleep~~~"

"Yes, that's good! Let the soldiers take good care of it. The Imperial Doctor must also be on the side at any time, and the ministers must not be lost! ”

"No!"

After Zhang Liao retreated, Liu Xie summoned Zhao Yun and Deng Zhan, and after explaining tomorrow's affairs, he asked them to go down to prepare.

The first night came, outside Dinghu Palace. Tens of thousands of troops surrounded Dinghu Palace.

The eunuch Xiao Yi was looking around at the east gate, waiting for Dong Yuan to come.

"Huh~~~"

The horses neighed, dozens of sturdy men led a carriage to stop at the gate of the palace, and a pretty widow slowly walked out.

When Xiao Yi saw it, he hurriedly ran out from the side and hit a group of sergeants hard, and then he was blocked by Duan Xuan at the door and couldn't go out.

Dong Yuan approached, but was also stopped and was not allowed to enter.

"Mrs. Yu, Prime Minister Dong has an order, no one is allowed to enter or leave Dinghu Palace!"

Duan Xuan's blunt refusal made Dong Yuan, who was originally sad, furious and furious.

But no matter what means Dong Yuan used, Duan Xuan still bounced back with that blunt sentence.

After playing around for a while, Dong Yuan, who was originally swaying, squatted aside and cried bitterly.

"Madam, in the lower Yellow Gate order Xu Yi, do you have something to ask for?"

Xiao Yi, who was separated by the sergeant on the other side, shouted loudly to Dong Yuan: "Your Majesty is angry, and it is about to die, you need a few medicinal herbs to hang your life, and I hope that Mrs. will do well and help you in the next hand." ”

After speaking, Xiao Yi handed over a brocade silk full of medicinal materials to Dong Yuan through Duan Xuan's hand.

Holding the brocade silk in his hand, dozens of herbs were densely written, and when he heard Xiao Yi's words "Your Majesty is like a gossamer", my heart was filled with sadness.

Looking at Duan Xuan, who didn't care about the life or death of the Son of Heaven, Dong Yuan thought for a while, handed over the brocade silk to a few entourages, and ordered them to go to buy medicine; Then he took a horse and took the rest of the people around him and rode the horse to the northwest.

An hour later, Dong Yuan returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion out of breath and told his father Dong Zhuo about the situation.

"What, Yuan'er, you say, the Son of Heaven is dying?"

"It's all my daughter's fault, I said that I wanted to make osmanthus wine and dedicate it to my father, but His Majesty listened to it, and I had to go up the tree to pick it myself, so I fell into the glacial lake and my life was in danger~~~"

Dong Yuan was crying as she spoke.

"Well~~~"

Dong Zhuo let out a low voice, suspicious in his heart, as soon as Lu Bu was captured, the Son of Heaven was critically ill, this is too suspicious? walked back and forth a few steps, picked up his youngest daughter Dong Yuan, and summoned Jia Xu and asked him to come over for a staff visit.

"May I ask Madam, when did the Son of Heaven fall into the water?"

"Your Majesty fell into the water, less than the beginning of the unitary hour, I don't know sir, why do you have this question?"

Looking at Dong Zhuo, who was also confused, Jia Xu said respectfully: "At the second moment, the thief Lu Bu was arrested, it seems that the Son of Heaven is really critically ill!" ”

Dong Zhuo reacted at this time, the Son of Heaven fell into the water before Lu Bu was arrested, and his daughter saw it with her own eyes, so he would not fake; Then the Son of Heaven is critically ill, and it must be true.

Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo immediately panicked in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Why didn't Dinghu Palace send a message?" ”

"It should be the Queen Mother's press, and she doesn't issue an edict; As for Duan Junshou, there is a gap with the Son of Heaven, so ~~~"

There is no need for Jia Xu to continue, Dong Zhuo understands.

After pacing back and forth anxiously for a few steps, just when Dong Zhuo wanted to go to Dinghu Palace tonight, he was stopped by Jia Xu: "Master Shang." It's getting late today, so you should go again tomorrow, and you should bring a hundred officials. If the Son of Heaven is all right, they will all rejoice; If it is urgent. Discuss the new emperor! ”

"Discuss the new emperor!"

Dong Zhuo's father and daughter were all in a hurry.

"Yes, if the Son of Heaven goes, he needs to establish a new emperor; And Shang's father, you can also replace it~~~"

"Yes!" Dong Zhuo closed his eyes. After thinking for a while, he went out of the palace and looked, seeing that it was late at night, and it was inconvenient for the officials to gather, and it was too late to hurry, so he had to give up.

After Jia Xu left, Dong Zhuo called the craftsman: "The long-lived hundred-year-old golden jade lock, can it be made?" ”

"Father, it's been prepared."

After speaking, the little attendant in the back brought a plate. Above is a gold-inlaid jade longevity lock, golden and dazzling, and the elegance shines.

Back in the courtyard of his home, Jia Xu bowed to the southeast: the minister can only delay for one night, and then, everything depends on Your Majesty!

The Son of Heaven fell into the water and became critically ill, and with the arrival of Dong Yuan, this news spread all over Chang'an City in the middle of the night, bringing an impact, which was undoubtedly a major earthquake

"Your Majesty. Madame has gone to Chang'an City! ”

In front of the dragon couch, Xiao Yi bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"Excellent! Go down, pick some brave waiters, and tomorrow there will be no mistake!" ”

Xiao Yi exclaimed in his heart. Retreat more humbly.

Since falling into the water in the afternoon, he has been lying down now, Liu Xiezhi felt a splitting headache, and hurriedly called Bai Jie and asked her to help him press his head.

"Whew~~~"

White and delicate little hands, the finger power is just right. Liu Xie's brain was cleared, his whole body was comfortable, he pulled the pair of jade hands, and said lovingly: "Xiaojie, you are really my baby!" ”

"Your Majesty~~~" Bai Jie lay softly in front of the chest of the Son of Heaven, and his little hands circled: "Your Majesty fell into the water in the afternoon, and the slaves and maids were almost scared to death." ”

"All of this is my plan, as long as you are well prepared, the world can collect it!"

Lifting the white and flawless jade face, he gently stroked it: "Tomorrow's things, you are the key, you can't afford to lose, you know!" ”

"Well, the slave understands!"

Hugging Bai Jie tightly and feeling the sweet fragrance, Liu Xie's sleepiness gradually hit・・・・・・

Huangfu Song, who was stationed in Fufeng County, held the secret order of the Son of Heaven, and looked in the southeast direction all night, and the hour had passed, and he found that there was no abnormality, and the veteran finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the next thing was much easier.

"Tell Zhang Ji that tomorrow Tian Maoling is strong, let him go first, and Ben will come later."

"No!"

After the soldiers went down to give the order, Huangfu Song Lao pulled a smile on his face, picked up the secret letter of the Son of Heaven, the first line of words: If the beacon fire rises before the time tonight, kill Zhang Ji first, and then lead the troops to gather in Chang'an.

"Guanzhong, there's going to be an earthquake!"

Huangfu Song looked at the sparse stars in the sky for a while, then suppressed the excitement and joy in his heart, returned to the bedroom and hugged the sleeping lady and fell asleep quietly.

also felt that Guanzhong was going to change the sky, and there were six people from Hangu Pass.

Xu Rong, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Wei Yan, Li Yan, Cheng Yu, the six of them stared at the west tightly, and when the hour passed, they all looked at each other and smiled.

Picking up the translated secret order of the Son of Heaven, Xu Rong looked at the first line of words: If the beacon fire rises before the time tonight, destroy Dong Yue first, and then lead troops to gather in Chang'an.

Now that the flame is not burning, it means that the Son of Heaven has everything in his hands, and what they have to do is to obey the holy order!

"Recruit Zao Yi and Yang Feng!"

After the two of them came up, Xu Rong stared at them and said, "Yang Feng, do you want to make meritorious service to atone for your sins?" ”

"Sin will receive his life, and he will die!"

"Good!" After Xu Rong nodded heavily at Xu Chu, he said, Yang Feng did not hesitate after hearing it, and immediately responded.

"Hehe, Lao Yang, it's all up to you this time!"

Xu Chu laughed and pulled Yang Feng, took three hundred warriors from Xujiazhuang, crossed the Yellow River at night, and went north.

Then there was Wei Yan, who selected 2,000 loyal and good men from the 20,000 defenders of Hangu Pass, led by Xu Rong's subordinate Gongsun Zhi, and then selected 3,000 strong soldiers from the 20,000 Tuntian army.

"Step~~~Step"

More than ten horsemen stepped on the night to come to the door of Hangu Gate, and after handing over the token, they were summoned by Xu Rong in, took out three holy decrees, and solemnly handed them over to the five kneeling people.

Wei Yan respectfully took a holy decree and stretched it out, feeling that the holy decree was full of a rushing killing intent.

After closing, Wei Yan said goodbye to the four of them, and then led the carefully selected five thousand elites, stepped on Luoshui, crossed the Bears Ears Mountain, and marched rapidly to the southwest. (To be continued.) )
