Chapter 44: The Shaking of the Government and the Opposition (I)

Luoyang, General's Mansion.

In the past few days, He Jin Lao Jue's heart was frightened, and he was reluctant to go to court for several days, and this matter even alarmed Emperor Ling, and he swam naked in Xiyuan (artificial hot spring, let the eunuch boil hot water and pour it into the pool, and then ordered hundreds of palace maids to take off their clothes and take a bath in the water), and sent eunuchs to greet him in his busy schedule.

This day, Luoyang was in a hurry under the heavy snow, He Jin leaned on the side of the fire plate and was drowsy, suddenly woke up by a rush of footsteps, and turned his head in shock, only to see that the door curtain was lifted, and He Miao, the general of the chariot and cavalry, had already rushed in in a panic.

As soon as He Miao saw He Jin, he immediately fell to his knees and cried: "Big brother, my father is in danger!" ”

He Jin was taken aback, bounced up from the tiger skin brocade mattress, and said, "Second brother, what did you say!?" ”

He Miao knocked on the ground with his head and said in a panic: "Big brother, Nanyang Liukou has resurged, and the younger brother can't catch up, and his father is ...... It's already in the hands of thieves. ”

He Jin said sharply: "Is it life or death?" ”

He Miao said in a panic: "Still alive." ”

He Jin breathed a long sigh of relief, his expression softened, and he stepped forward to help He Miao and said: "As long as my father is still alive, there is something to do, second brother hurry up and speak slowly." ”

He Miao got up, followed He in and sat down by the fire, and said with palpitations: "The younger brother was ordered by the eldest brother, and he didn't dare to slack off, and Yuan Shu, the lieutenant of the Chinese military academy, led 500 officers and soldiers to Fuyang's hometown in the starry night, preparing to welcome his father back to Beijing. ”

He Jin frowned and said, "The messenger sent by my father, where are the people?" ”

He Miao said gloomily: "The messenger was carrying three arrows, and Gu Yan died of anger after the Fuyang accident. ”

"What did the Messenger say before he died?"

"The messenger said that Fuyang County ordered Chen Zhen to trust the soldiers Cao Peng and Li Yan, and to advance lightly against the enemy, but Li Yan's troops were defeated by Mumapo, but 800 rogues took advantage of Fuyang, and the county ordered Chen Zhen, his father and a large and small officials to fall into the hands of thieves."

He Jin said: "I hate Chen Zhen, I hate Li Yan, I am a husband, I am in danger of my father, I swear to kill him, I swear to kill him." ”

He Miao said in a low voice: "Speaking of which, the loss of Fuyang is not all the fault of Chen Zhen and Li Yan, and Nanyang is even more guilty of guarding Qin Jie. ”

"Qin Jie? What do you mean by that? ”

"Since Zhu Jun defeated the main force of the Yellow Turban in Nanyang, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans fled to the Jingshan area, and they have been surrounded by the Nanyang Corps led by Qin Jie.

"That's how it happened!" He Jin said hatefully, "Qin Jie! I lost the county to govern Wancheng before, if it wasn't for the eunuchs to stop it, I have been killing for a long time, how can I come to the loss of Fuyang this time? Hateful! Annoying! This time I swear to kill it, I swear to kill it! ”

He Miao sighed and said, "Big brother, don't be angry, Qin Jie has been dead for a long time. ”

"Uh......"

He Jin was stunned again, looking at He Miao in a daze, I don't know how much news He Miao still shocked him didn't say, so he said angrily: "Second brother, if you have anything to say, just say it quickly, I can't do it if you want to kill me in a hurry?" ”

He Miao turned his head to the door and said sharply: "Bring it up!" ”

The chaotic footsteps sounded, the curtain was lifted, and the two majestic Han soldiers had already escorted a more majestic man into the room, the man was five big and three thick, his eyes were sharp, and at a glance he knew that he was a reckless hero from the three mountains and five mountains, and the man was followed by another Han army, holding a wooden box in his hand, but he didn't know what it was containing?

He Jin said awe-inspiringly: "Second brother, who is this?" ”

Without waiting for He Miao to speak, Zhou Cang had already replied: "Yes, Zhou Cang of Niutou Mountain is also, and he is a small leader under Ma Yue, the big leader of the eight hundred Liukou. ”

He Jinse changed his face: "It turned out to be a thief, why don't you push it out and cut it!" Second brother, how can you bring him into the mansion? Aren't you afraid that the castration will know about it and take the opportunity to make trouble? ”

He Miao hurriedly persuaded: "The eldest brother can't be killed, if he kills his father, he will die!" What does he have to say? ”

Zhou Cang snorted coldly, and then said: "On the order of the big leader Ma Yue, I came to Luoyang to present to the general a Nanyang Taishou Qin Jie's head, a Nanyang Taishou seal ribbon, and a letter from Lingzun's family, and told him on his behalf, if he can't drive 2,000 military horses to Nanyang within ten days, then wait to collect the corpse of Ling Zun." ”

"You!"

He Jin snorted, pointed at Zhou Cang, and the murderous intent in his eyes was sheng, but this killing word couldn't be shouted. Although He Jin is a butcher in Nanyang, he has a reputation for filial piety. One said that the old father suffered from sores and diseases, and his breath was dying, He Jin actually lay down and sucked it, and got three thick blood bowls, and his father's illness passed.

Zhou Cang was not afraid, and said, "What am I?" Kill and kill, a certain is fearless. ”

He Jin's face changed again and again, and finally he sighed and waved his hand: "That's it, take me down to take care of the good life, and don't let you escape." ”

"Yes."

The two Han soldiers shouted and escorted Zhou Cang away, and the Han army holding Qin Jie's head glanced at He Miao, and He Miao saw that He Jin had no interest in appreciating Qin Jie's head and waved his hand, and the Han army also left with the wooden box.

He Jin put his hands behind his back, anxious like ants on a hot pot, and said with a sad face: "2,000 military horses!" The thieves breathed a big sigh, by the way, what is the name of this gang of thieves? What is the name of their big leader? ”

He Miao replied: "Big brother, this gang of thieves claims to be eight hundred Liukou, and there is a banner, and they are troublesome, as for the thief chief, the surname is Ma Mingyue, and the name is Boqi, and he claims to be the descendant of General Fubo Ma Yuan. ”

He Jinqi said: "Eight hundred liukou? Ma Yue Ma Bozi? Descendants of General Fubo? How unreasonable! But if the religion falls into my hands, it will be overcome! ”

He Miao stood aside and said yes, not daring to answer.

He Jin walked back and forth a few times, then suddenly stopped and asked, "Second brother, who else knows about this matter?" ”

He Miao said: "In addition to Yuan Shu, the lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy, and the three personal guards of Fang Cai, there are also Lu Yangling and other local officials who know. ”

He Jin had a trace of ruthlessness on his face, and said Sen Ran: "Immediately kill the three personal guards, and send someone to assassinate Lu Yangling and other insiders, as for Yuan Shu, the lieutenant of the Chinese military academy, he is the son of Yuan Feng, the fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, the foundation of the court and the middle of the country is deep and cannot be moved lightly, I should come to the door in person, Yuan Feng has always hated the eunuch, and I am willing to help!" ”

He Miao exclaimed: "What does the eldest brother want?" ”

He Jin sighed: "2,000 military horses, where can they be raised for a while? Even if he raised military horses, would he dare to send them to the eight hundred Liukou? This is a great sin of being a thief and destroying the nine clans! The father had no choice but to kill those who knew about it, so as not to incur the infamy of not saving him when he saw death, and was unfaithful and unfilial. ”

He Miao exclaimed: "Big brother can't, when the younger brother met the thief Zhou Cang in Luyang, he had already swaggered through the city, passing through Nanyang and Runan counties, and there were many people in the know, and he couldn't kill him." ”

He Jin looked up to the sky and sighed: "You can't save it, you can't save it, so what?" ”

……

Sikong Province.

Yuan Feng was admiring the snow at the window of the study, writing hard, when he heard the sound of armor outside the door, and turned his head in shock, only to see that Yuan Shu had entered with high spirits.

Yuan Fengxi said: "Wu'er is back?" Have you ever welcomed the return of Old Lady He? ”

Yuan Shu responded: "Old lady He is in the hands of thieves, and she can't save her. ”

Yuan Feng was shocked: "Why is this? ”

Yuan Shu will meet He Zhen's messenger and the Liukou Zhou Cang on the road to recount in detail, Yuan Feng heard a little thought about it and was shocked: "My son has a surname to worry about!" Although the general has a filial name, he is actually a person with a cold surname, and now he can't save the old lady, he will definitely kill the people who know to kill his mouth, so as to maintain his loyalty and filial piety. ”

Yuan Shu said: "It's okay, the thief chief Ma Yue is not easy to deal with, this thief has already dealt with it." The thief Zhou Cang went north on the road, crossed through the two counties and counties, and the old lady He was taken captive, and the people near and far knew about it, although He Jin was the general of the dynasty, but he could not kill all the people and gentry in the two counties and counties? ”

Yuan Fengdao: "Is there really such a thing? ”

"Really."

"In this way, Ma Yue, the thief chief of the eight hundred rogues, is scheming, not as easy to deal with as Zhang Mancheng and Zhao Hong's incompetent people, fortunately, these things have nothing to do with my Yuan family, so let others worry about it."

Yuan Shu blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Father, now the eight hundred Liukou does have nothing to do with my Yuan family, but it will soon have something to do with my Yuan family." ”

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, when he saw Yuan Shu's expression, Yuan Feng suddenly realized something, and said in horror: "Now that Qin Jie is dead, Nanyang Taishou is vacant, and my son intends to seek the position of Nanyang Taishou?" ”

Yuan Shu said loudly: "Exactly, I also asked my father and uncle to play the Son of Heaven, and Yucheng did this." ”
