Chapter 20: The End

In the north of the mountain, Zhang Rang took Ji Ping all the way, and there was a faint sound of horses' hooves behind him, and those torches could be seen scattered from a distance, searching in all directions. However, there are still quite a few torches rushing in the direction of Kohiratsu.

Xiaopingjin Pass is one of the eight passes set up by the general He Jin to resist the Yellow Turban Army, it and Mengjin Pass form a corner trend, choke the throat of the Yellow River, and guard the north gate of Luoyang.

It rained for three months in a row, the road was very muddy, and they walked on the mountain road in the north of the mountain, most of these eunuchs grew up in the palace, and they had never walked such a long way.

After walking for more than ten miles, there were few eunuchs left around Zhang Rang and Ji Ping, Duan Qi and Song Dian in the ten permanent servants were lost, and only Zhang Rang, Bi Lan, Zhang Gong, Gao Wang and a dozen small eunuchs remained, Bi Lan was still pulled by Ji Ping, otherwise he would have been lost.

Getting closer and closer to Xiaopingjin, Ji Ping had already faintly heard the sound of the waves of the Yellow River.

At this time, a loud shout came from far behind: "Zhang Rang eunuch, Duan Jue has been ambushed, and if he still doesn't let go of the Son of Heaven, he will die on the ground!" ”

"It must have been Duan Qi who leaked our whereabouts." Zhang Gong scolded, turned around and kicked the little eunuch who followed a few times, and reprimanded: "Why don't you go and defend the thieves for the old ancestor?" ”

Those little eunuchs cried and shouted, but they didn't dare to resist Zhang Gong's order, and hurriedly turned around.

Ji Ping hesitated, but did not stop it, this is not the time to be soft-hearted, those who can escape with the ten permanent servants are their cronies, and they do a lot of evil on weekdays, and they don't have to care about their lives.

Zhang Rang didn't say a word, pulled Ji Ping halfway down, left the avenue, and walked diagonally along a path towards the mountain forest on one side. Zhang Gong, Gao Wang, and Bi Lan followed closely.

There are also four eunuchs behind them, two of which are Zhang Rang's righteous sons Zhang Feng and Zhang Ping, one of whom has poisoned Ji Ping and the other who has bullied Princess Wannian.

The path in the forest is very narrow, on both sides are deep and dense grass, it is the middle of the night in late autumn, the grass blades are full of rain and dew, and after walking for a while, Ji Ping's clothes are completely soaked, if he hadn't practiced the dragon trick, he would have been shivering from the cold.

He couldn't help but be glad that he didn't bring Empress He, otherwise Empress He's delicate body, walking this journey, I am afraid that he will inevitably fall seriously ill.

After walking more than a mile, the path disappeared, the sound of the waves was close at hand, and the wind suddenly became stronger.

Zhang Gong walked two steps quickly through the grass, and suddenly shouted: "Old ancestor, there is a high cliff in front of you, and the Yellow River is below, let's flee to other places." ”

At this moment, several torches appeared on the path behind them, and Zhang Gong cried in a low voice: "Old Ancestor, what should we do?" ”

Bi Lan and Gao Wang never said a word all the way.

Zhang Rang stopped, stunned for a while, and sighed: "It is also the retribution of heaven, we are waiting for Rongji I, who has harmed a lot of people, and deserves this disaster, so let the Yellow River wash away this sin." ”

After that, he let go of Ji Ping, turned around and bowed down: "We are really the minions of the Son of Heaven, and now that we are dead, the scholars are greedy, and the world is about to be in turmoil, please take care of your majesty." ”

Then he turned around and walked towards the river, about to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river.

Ji Ping was silent, and he didn't stop Zhang Rang, Bi Lan beside him was about to follow Zhang Rang without saying a word, but he was pulled back.

Zhang Rang's two righteous sons, Zhang Feng and Zhang Ping, both showed despair in their eyes, but they hesitated and did not follow Zhang Rang, and Gao Wang's face was cloudy.

Only Zhang Gong followed two steps, turned his head again, looked at Ji Ping, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and said loudly: "Ancestor, we have fallen to this point, and we are all framed by He Ling slut and He Jin villain, so I pulled this little emperor into the water, and I will not live this life in vain." ”

Thump! There was a sound of falling water in front, but Zhang Rang had already jumped off the Yellow River.

Zhang Gong was stunned for a moment, shouted the old ancestor twice, and then ran towards Ji Ping, and said loudly: "Don't you arrest Liu Wei yet?" ”

Gao Wang, Zhang Feng, Zhang Ping and the four little eunuchs hesitated for a moment and surrounded Ji Ping.

Bi Lan guarded in front of Ji Ping, and said in a deep voice: "The wealth and wealth of our first life are all from the first emperor and His Majesty, and now that we are dead, how can we do such a great rebellion?" ”

A trace of hideousness flashed in Zhang Gong's eyes, and he shouted: "Bi Lan! Get out of the way, or you'll be thrown down the Yellow River with you. ”

Ji Ping snorted coldly, he had already occupied a favorable position silently, pulled Bi Lan back two steps, and with a wave of his hand, twenty red congregations suddenly pounced up from the grass on all sides, and put five or six eunuchs to the ground in the blink of an eye.

"Who are you?" Zhang Gong pulled out his long sword and screamed angrily.

"It's Geng Zhong's redundant obedience!" Gao Wang said sharply, turning his head to look at Ji Ping, his eyes were full of consternation, obviously feeling incredulous that Ji Ping could unite with Geng Zhong to act in secret.

At this time, Zhang Gong suddenly broke away from a redundant obedience, pounced on Ji Ping, and said with a cruel smile: "Emperor Xiao'er, die with me and let He Ling's slut suffer." ”

Ji Ping was still a little sad about Zhang Rang's suicide, but when he heard this Zhang Gong insulting his mother one by one, he was immediately furious, took two steps forward, twisted Zhang Gong's arm, and stretched out his hand to crackle a few slaps, which made Zhang Gong a little stunned.

Ji Ping didn't give up, kicked Zhang Gong a few times, and scolded: "Nima, I really pinched it when I was a soft persimmon." ”

In the stunned eyes of everyone, he raised Zhang Gong with both hands, rushed forward two steps, and made a violent round.

"Ahh ——" Zhang Gong screamed miserably in mid-air, and soon fell into the Yellow River with a "plop" sound.

Ji Ping flicked his sleeves, looked back at Bi Lan and Gao Wang, and said lightly: "I'm a Sven, but he has to force me to be rude." ”

Gao Wang's cheeks twitched.

After experiencing great changes overnight, He Jin's death and He Hou's loss of control made Ji Ping's heart quite depressed, at this time, he threw Zhang Gong into the Yellow River, his expression seemed to be flat, but his eyes were still murderous, and he turned his head to look at Bi Lan, Bi Lan's body trembled, he took two steps back in panic, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old slave will come by himself." ”

Ji Ping grabbed him and snorted lowly: "Among the ten permanent servants, you Bi Lan is the one who has done the least evil, and you are not in a hurry to die, it is still useful for me to keep you." "Bi Lan is good at Ming, he is a talent, and after he takes root in Hedong County, he can use it regardless of military industry and farming.

He turned his head to look at the other frightened eunuchs, a little excited, and turned his head to the ten years and said lightly: "Let the Yellow River wash away their sins." ”

Zhong Yu dragged Gao Wang and other seven eunuchs to the river.

"Majesty!" Gao Wang hurriedly struggled and shouted: "Rao Chen's life, the minister has always been loyal to His Majesty......"

"Gao Wang," Ji Ping interrupted him, "I know the mandala...... Do you know how Zhang Zhou died? ”

Gao Wangdeng's face was like ashes.

Ji Ping has no sympathy in his heart, although he has a gentle temperament, but he is definitely a person who has revenge, Liu Wei was originally very trustworthy to Gao Wang, but Gao Wang in turn wanted to poison him, he was an ungrateful person, and he deserved to die.

With a few splashes and falling waters, the Ten Standing Servants and their followers were all killed.

At this time, the torches on the trail were getting closer and closer, and the sounds of talking and complaining could already be heard, and Ji Ping hurriedly asked the congregation and Bi Lan to hide in the grass.

Soon a few soldiers searched for it, took only a cursory look, and then turned back.

Then Ji Ping and his entourage hurriedly came out and rushed to Xiaopingjin, and at the same time sent two redundant servants to Xiaopingjin Pass to inquire about the situation.

At the same time, dozens of miles away from the west of Luoyang City, in the area of the Sunset Pavilion, an army was stationed, stretching for hundreds of camps.

A fast horse galloped from the direction of Luoyang, and immediately the people shouted: "Dong Min, the commander of Fengche, has sent someone to ask to see General Dong Zhuo." ”

The soldiers guarding the camp shouted: "The second general has a letter coming, report it to the general." ”

In the big tent of the Chinese army, a slightly fat man read the letter and laughed: "My brother Dong Min sent a letter, He Jin is dead, and He Miao was also killed by my brother and He Jin, haha!" It's really providential, if you don't enter the Beijing division at this time, when will you wait! Order, Flame Soldier Luoyang! ”

Xiaopingjin Pass, Ji Ping from a distance saw that the lights were bright, the two sides of the pass were dark peaks, and in front of the pass were the training school ground, the gate and the barracks.

Seeing the tall Xiaopingjin Guanlou getting closer and closer, exploring the two redundant servants but not returning, Ji Ping was having some doubts in his heart, the door of the closing building suddenly opened, and a group of people greeted him, bowing to the ground: "Minister, the last general to see Your Majesty!" ”

Under the firelight, Ji Ping saw two of the familiar faces among the leading people, one was Geng Zhong, and the other was Xun You. The other two, an elegant man and a black-faced man, were both in armor.

"Gentlemen, calm down." Ji Ping hurriedly helped a few people up, and then turned his head to look at Xun You, overjoyed: "Xun Jun! How did you end up here? ”

He has not heard from Xun You in the past few days, he didn't expect Xun You to be able to come over, he planned so much, but his heart was bottomless after all, as soon as he saw Xun You, the mastermind, his heart instantly relaxed.

"The Son of Heaven is in trouble, the humiliation of the courtiers, I specially invite the soldiers and horses of the Shooting Battalion to serve His Majesty!" Xun You's eyes flashed.

After listening to the plan of the Son of Heaven that day, he chose to believe in the Son of Heaven, and now it is true that it is on August 25 that the palace changes. He naturally knew that it was difficult for the Son of Heaven to intervene in the palace change, but the fact that the Son of Heaven could predict this date really surprised and curious him.

"Shooting Battalion?" Ji Ping was stunned, he thought that the two armored generals were the guards of Xiaopingjin Pass, but he didn't expect it to be the shooting battalion of the five battalions of the Northern Army.

The five battalions of the Northern Army and the Zhijinwu, the Tiger Ben Army, the Yulin Army, the Lianggong Guards and the Zhugong Gate Guards all belong to the Praetorian Guard, Gong Guard Beijing Division, and the five battalions of the Northern Army are the elite among them, often go out to fight, where there is a local rebellion, the five battalions of the Northern Army are almost a battle must be enlisted.

Now the fifth battalion of the Northern Army is supervised by He Yan, the middle of the Northern Army, He Yan was called by the general He Jin, who is not only friends with Xun You, but also close to Yuan Shao, Ji Ping did not expect Xun You to actually pull the shooting battalion over.

Ji Ping was still stunned, and the middle-aged thin man with a bit of elegance bowed down and said loudly: "The last general, Xun Di, led one hundred and thirty military officers and seven hundred soldiers to shoot the sound of the school, stationed outside Xiaopingjin Pass, to serve His Majesty!" ”

Ji Ping looked at this man, with an elegant face and vicissitudes in his eyes, he should be a person with a story. Wait, surname Xun? Could it be? He looked at Xun You.

Xun You nodded and said, "This is Uncle You." ”

It turned out to be Xun You's uncle, and Ji Ping suddenly felt that this Xun Yi was kind.

He looked at the black-faced man and said with a smile: "This is my brother Tang Fang, right?" ”

Although this man has a dark face, he is not rough, he is a little honest, and there is a bit of similarity between his eyebrows and eyes to Tang Wan, so he has a guess.

The black-faced man hurriedly said: "The last general, Tang Fang, the commander of Xiaopingjin Guan, how dare he be called His Majesty, and lead six hundred soldiers to serve His Majesty!" ”

Ji Ping looked at Xun Di and Tang Fang, and smiled: "It's all my own people, why be polite, now I'm not the Son of Heaven, the troubled times are coming, I am determined to build a pure land, appease the people, inevitably expel foreign races, fight Haoqiang, the future is uncertain, there is no wealth and glory, I don't know if you are willing to follow?" ”

The two of them said in unison: "Swear to follow His Majesty!" ”
