Chapter 26: Who Dominates the Ups and Downs (Part 2)
The hussar general Dong Chong put away his sword and stood, looking at the direction that Gongsun Yi left, thinking for a while, is it a conspiracy, or is it sincere help? Everything is unknown, especially Gongsun Yi is the ruling Jinwu, but He Jin is hand-picked, but he just ventured to come late at night, and he really can't see where the winter is.
After thinking for a long time, Dong Zhong walked out of the house and called: "Someone! ”
"Master, what do you command?" The brocade-clothed servant came with a quick pace, his steps were vigorous, and he was obviously a martial artist.
"You go to the palace to find out about the current situation of the Empress Dowager, you must be cautious, and you must not alarm others."
"The night is deep, I'm afraid it will be difficult to enter the palace, the Queen Mother must have gone to bed, I don't know what the lord is about?"
"He Jin is very likely to do it in the near future, although my aunt is the empress dowager, I am afraid that it will not be able to escape the poison, you bring my gold seal and purple ribbon, you should be able to go directly to the palace, the queen of heaven's bedroom is my cronies, and it will be passed on to you."
Dong thought for a while and then said: "If your aunt is fine, you will immediately hand over the seal ribbon, and persuade your aunt to gather the courtiers to deter He Jin, if something has happened, immediately hide the seal ribbon, and it must not fall into He Jin's hands, otherwise no one in the capital will be able to compete with He Jin." ”
Dong Zhong was so anxious that he had roughly believed Gongsun Yi's words, and had prepared for the worst, the hussar general's seal was very important, and the newly recruited forbidden army must not fall into He Jin's hands.
At the same time, Dong Chong also knows very well that the forbidden army that has just been recruited is by no means the opponent of the tiger and wolf division of the Northern Army, and he only hopes that there is room for relaxation.
"It's a big deal, General!" A pale armored general who had lost too much blood staggered under the support of two domestic servants, suffering more than ten wounds all over his body, and blood continued to spill from the simply bandaged wounds.
Dong Zhong waved his hand slightly to the Jinyi servant to signal to leave, and immediately greeted the general, the Jinyi servant bowed and quickly walked towards the underground secret room, where the hussar general's golden seal and purple ribbon were hidden, and this was the only opportunity to reach the palace all the way.
"Liao An, what are you!?" Dong Zhongzhong was shocked, Liao An has been in the barracks, and now he is seriously injured and has returned, presumably the situation of the new army is not optimistic.
"General, in the middle of the night, our army has just rested, the vanguard Yuan Shao led people to kill the guards, and the army came silently around the barracks, and the northern army suddenly killed as the fire arrows poured out."
"For a while, the fire spread, constantly devouring and burning the soldiers, many soldiers just rushed out of the military tent before they could react, they were slashed and killed by the northern army, most of our army was killed, and the rest were surrendered, and the hussar general was asked to leave quickly."
Dong Chong's face was pale, he staggered back a few steps, his military power was lost, he was already lacking in skills, and his death was approaching, Dong Chong looked up at the oppressive black clouds in the sky and said lightly: "I'm afraid it's too late." ”
Suddenly, there was a loud shout of killing not far away, and the terrible screams came one after another, and after a while, the sound of shouting and killing gradually stopped, and there was a sudden deathly silence outside the Hussar General's Mansion, and with a loud 'bang', several armor soldiers blocking the door of the mansion fell to the ground due to the huge impact.
With several dull loud noises, the door of the mansion suddenly opened, and countless wolf-like northern troops rushed in, slashing and killing the soldiers who knelt on the ground and begged.
"Stop!" Dong Zhong stepped forward and said coldly.
"Spare your life, spare your life, sir, save us!" More than a dozen domestic servants who were crushed to the ground by the Northern army and were about to be beheaded pleaded bitterly, tears flowed in terror, and many of them peed their pants.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow roared, standing behind Dong Chong, the general who was supported by two servants snorted, his round eyes looked at the sharp arrow piercing his chest, and his head was tilted and he lost his breath.
The servant who was supporting him was suddenly frightened, and he casually threw away the breathless Xiao'an, and knelt on the ground in panic.
At this moment, a general walked into the mansion, casually threw the longbow to the soldiers beside him, looked at the more than a dozen servants who were crushed to the ground, and said lightly to the sergeants: "Do it, what are you doing in a daze?" ”
"You!" Dong was furious, and watched more than a dozen domestic servants being beheaded, and the eyes of the rolling off heads were wide and blind.
"Hussar general, the last general is polite, if you don't want to have any more casualties, you should hand over the golden seal and purple ribbon as soon as possible, so as not to suffer a tragedy in the whole house, I don't guarantee that my soldiers will do something out of the ordinary."
Dong Zhong casually threw the long sword in his hand on the ground and said lightly: "Wait a minute, I will bring the golden seal and purple ribbon." ”
"Follow him." Several armor soldiers followed Dong Chong, who was preoccupied, and walked towards the back hall.
After a while, suddenly, a soldier who had followed Dong Zhong to get the golden seal purple ribbon rushed to the general in a panic and said eagerly: "My lord, the hussar general killed himself in the back hall. ”
The school changed color suddenly, and took advantage of the situation to buckle the armor of the armor and said coldly: "Are you just watching, the golden seal and purple ribbon!" ”
"No, no, we've searched the secret room more than ten times, and there isn't any."
The colonel's face was full of hideousness, and he pushed the armor soldier to the ground, took out his saber and slashed it down, blood splashed everywhere, and the begging armor soldier screamed and lost his breath.
"Search for me, but you can't hurt his family, violators will be killed!" In fact, the previous general was just a threat, the hussar general was high and powerful, and it was the Dong family, so he couldn't move lightly, it was nothing to kill a few domestic servants and guards, if he hurt his family, I am afraid He Jin would never let him go.
***
Obey Dong Chong's order to go to the brocade servant, with the gold seal and purple ribbon unimpeded to the Empress Dowager's bedroom, the guard knows the brocade servant, plus there is a gold seal and purple ribbon, and said that it is a hussar general who has something important to find the Empress Dowager Dong, although it is difficult, but still enter the palace to report.
The Empress Dowager Dong on the couch had no sleep, and since she returned to the dormitory, she had been thinking about it, only to feel that Gongsun Yi seemed to have a hint in her eyes during the banquet, and she was indignant and did not pay attention to it at that time, but at this time it seemed to be quite meaningful.
Maybe Gongsun Yi and He Jin are not of the same mind, but the Empress Dong knows that Gongsun Yi was named Jin Wucheng by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and went to the Northern Army to command a battalion, He Jin not only handed over the notorious 'Anointing' battalion to Gongsun Yi, but also cut off food and salary, maybe Gongsun Yi is a person who can win over the heavy.
At this time, a personal maid came forward to report that someone in the Hussar General's Mansion came to ask for a meeting, and Empress Dong was uneasy and hurriedly changed her clothes and summoned.
Hearing the servant's words, the Empress Dowager Dong frowned slightly, if He Jin really dared to lead the troops to strike first, it was difficult to say that Dong Zhong could deal with it, although he secretly regretted that he couldn't hold his breath at the banquet, but the matter had come to this point, and he could only do it according to the words of the hussar general.
"You stand down, go back and tell the hussar general, tomorrow morning, I will definitely summon a hundred officials to check and balance He Jin."
"Report, the Emperor and the Emperor, the little yellow door outside the door asks to see you, saying that you are here by order."
"Biography." He turned to the brocade-clothed servant and said, "You hide behind the screen, and wait for the little yellow door to leave, and then it's not too late to leave." ”
"Yes, Empress Dowager."
After a while, a white and pure little yellow door entered with a holy decree in hand, came to the Empress Dowager very arrogantly, and bowed lightly perfunctorily and said loudly: "Empress Dowager, please kneel down to accept the decree." ”
"Empress Dowager Dong, originally a feudal concubine, should not live in the inner palace for a long time, besides, after He entered Yan's drive, there was no longer the gift of staying in the inner palace, so she still moved to the original fiefdom for resettlement, and ordered to move to the river immediately after the next day, there must be no mistake."
Empress Dowager Dong's eyes widened, her face was pale for a while, and she immediately sat down on the ground when she heard the holy decree, she knew very well that everything was done by He Jin, but the holy decree had arrived, and she was powerless to fight at all, even if it was the position of the noble queen of heaven, it was also given by the emperor, and a holy decree could be easily taken away. "By the way, the hussar general has been ambushed, so please take care of yourself the empress dowager." Xiao Huangmen casually handed the holy decree to Emperor Dong Tianhou, turned around and walked away proudly.
After a while, the brocade-clothed servant walked out from behind the screen, and saw that his eyes were sitting on the ground blankly, as if the empress dowager, who was ten years old in an instant, was full of all tastes for a while, Dong Zhong died, and the brocade-clothed servant was in turmoil for a while.
"For today's plan, the only way to do it is to give it a go, and you will take the golden seal and purple ribbon to Gongsun Mansion and hand it over to Gongsun Yi in person, this is not an order, it is a request."
"No, the Empress Dowager take care." The brocade-clothed servant's eyes were red, and he bowed and quickly left the palace with the golden seal and purple ribbon.
The brocade-clothed servant who had just left the palace cautiously came all the way to the street, and then the faint glimmer carefully followed the faint fast advance, and suddenly a loud shout came from afar: "Stop, who are you, what are you carrying in your arms?" Dare to run! Give me chase! ”
***
The sky was dark, and in the Gongsun Mansion, Yang Yi had no intention of sleeping, standing in the courtyard with his hands in his hands.
Suddenly, Yang Yi and Wei Luliang hurriedly came, panting slightly: "My lord, the newly recruited forbidden army was suddenly attacked, most of the dead and the rest have surrendered, the hussar general has killed himself in the back hall, and the northern army is searching in the mansion with all its might. ”
Yang Yi nodded slightly, his heart was full of mixed feelings, although he knew the historical process, although he tried his best to stop it, everything still happened as before, and the strong sense of frustration made Yang Yi feel chills in his heart, and even doubted whether Dong Zhuo would have the strength to fight in Beijing in the future?
"My lord, how are we going to behave with ourselves?"
"Wait." Yang Yi groaned slightly, and then ordered: "You immediately go to the Xiaocai camp, order all the officers and soldiers to be on full alert, keep the guns in their hands, and not unload their armor, and send a tun of troops to garrison the mansion, beware of someone taking advantage of the fire to rob." ”
"No."
"Why are you back?" After a while, Lu Liang went and returned, and Yang Yi was full of doubtful inquiries.
Lu Liang turned his head and beckoned, and the two white horse servants who acted as guards carried the seriously injured brocade-clothed servant over, an arrow pierced through the thigh, and there were two deep knife wounds on the body, and the blood overflowed like a spring.
"Lu Liang, you quickly lead people to lure the pursuing armor away, and eliminate the bloodstains, quickly." Yang Yi immediately ordered eagerly.
The dying brocade-clothed servant opened his eyes weakly, looked at Yang Yi and said softly, "Are you Lord Sun Yi, the father-in-law of Jinwu?" ”
"It is down here, who are you, and by whose command?"
The brocade-clothed servant touched his chest with his trembling arm, took out a blood-soaked baggage, and handed it to Yang Yi and said, "Big, hope, protect, protect the Empress Dowager and be thoughtful, uh." "My arm hung down weakly, and I was out of breath.
