Chang'an, Imperial Palace.

The new year is coming, Wang Yun and other old ministers gathered together to discuss holding a grand ceremony to worship the heavens, and announced to the world that the revival of the Han family was imminent in the form of worshipping the heavens, and that the heroes should support the Han family instead of fighting each other.

The meeting place is still in Weiyang Palace, the difference is that this time it is not Dong Zhuo who sits on the throne, but the little emperor Liu Xie, and the ministers around him are all the backbone of the Han family, and the power of Dong Zhuo's faction has been completely wiped out.

Wang Yun sat on the left side, with a smile on his face, raised his glass and said: "For the new year is coming, the revival of the Han family is imminent, let's all raise a glass to celebrate!" ”

"Celebrate!" The ministers raised their glasses and said in unison.

Liu Xie sat on the throne, his little face was also full of smiles, he could finally stop looking at Dong Zhuo's face, don't be oppressed by Dong Zhuo, in the court ruled by Wang Yun, he finally felt that he had a trace of imperial majesty, this feeling is really good.

After everyone raised their glasses and drank, Huang Wan glanced at Wang Yun and said casually: "Prime Minister, after worshiping the sky, should we give amnesty to the world and win the popularity of the court." ”

Wang Yun nodded and said, "This is as it should be, after the sacrifice to the heavens, a decree will be issued immediately to grant amnesty to the world." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Huang Wan's mouth and said, "Is that Cai Yong also among the amnesty?" ”

"Cai Yong? Hmph, do such people deserve to be forgiven? When Dong Zhuo was in power in the past, what was he doing? He is befriending Dong Zhuo and fighting for the tiger, can this kind of person be amnesty?

Now that the Son of Heaven is in power, none of Dong Zhuo's remnants can be let go! Otherwise, there will be great trouble in the future! I decided to cut Cai Yong to the city at noon on Chinese New Year's Eve! Wang Yun said that he hated Dong Zhuo to the core, and those who were close to Dong Zhuo could not let go.

Huang Wan hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, Cai Yong has a very high prestige in the eyes of the people in the world, if we execute him, it will be unpopular with the people!" Cai Yong said that he is willing to accept capital punishment, and only asks you to spare his life so that he can complete the history books, which is not only his wish, but also the wish of the people of the world! ”

"Hmph, if this kind of person is not put to death, then it is called losing the hearts of the people! I want to let the people of the world know that anyone who aids in the abuse will not end well, so as to enhance the prestige of the Han family. Wang Yun said.

Huang Wan opened his mouth and wanted to refute Wang Yun, but found that Wang Yun at this time was no longer the Wang Yun of the past.

"Cai Yong must be executed, one more day for such a person to live, it is a provocation to the dignity of the Han family! There is no need to discuss this matter, let's discuss the matter of sacrificing to the sky, on the day of the sacrifice, I am most worried about Li Su and Guo Yan of Yiwu, these two people are so close to Chang'an, they are the biggest threat to us, so when worshipping the sky, the strength of the guards is very important. Wang Yun said.

Everyone lowered their heads, no longer looked at Wang Yun, and did not make a sound, Cai Yong is a famous man in the world, if such a person is executed, it will chill the hearts of the people in the world, how sharp the mouths of the literati are, this will spread to them, this Han family is afraid that it will lose the hearts of the people even more.

Liu Xie sat on the throne and couldn't interject, but this was already very satisfying for him, at least, he was like an emperor.

Wang Yundao: "I have already given Ma Han a letter to ask them to increase their troops in Chang'an and assist us." It is estimated that the arrival time will be around Chinese New Year's Eve, when the time comes, let them be stationed outside the field, and Li Guo of Yiwu to defend Chang'an, in addition, General Yang, during this time, you must strengthen Chang'an's defensive strength, around the end of this year, it is especially important, you must not let thieves have an opportunity! ”

"No!" Yang Zan clenched his fists and said.

······

Chinese New Year's Eve afternoon.

The downtown streets of Chang'an were crowded with people, who stood on tiptoe and stretched out their heads to look towards the execution ground, where an old man of nearly sixty years old, with gray hair and desolate eyes, knelt on the ground with desolate eyes, looking at the sky in despair.

"Daddy!"

A girl was squeezed out of the bustling crowd, the girl had a beautiful appearance, and her big watery eyes were extremely red and swollen, which made people feel pitiful. She was about to rush forward with the hem of her skirt, but the guards immediately rushed forward and stopped the woman.

"Zhao Ji ~~~" Cai Yong saw the woman and immediately burst into tears.

"Let her pass!" The supervisor is also very sympathetic to Cai Yong.

The guards got the order and retreated, the girl threw herself on Cai Yong's body, hugged Cai Yong's body, the father and daughter cried bitterly, the cry was pathetic, and the people who were watching moved the people, and the people wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes.

"Daddy!" The girl shouted.

Cai Yong cried: "Zhao Ji, Dad is gone, you are left alone, you have to take care of yourself, don't despair of life, remember that no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to live well, life is better than anything else!" ”

"My daughter remembers, my daughter will live strongly." The girl cried.

"Dad is useless, I can't take care of you anymore, Dad is sorry for you." Cai Yong said sadly.

"When the hour comes, execute immediately!" The warden ordered.

"Daddy!" The girl was pulled away by the guards.

The executioner, who looked five big and three thick, picked up a bowl of wine, took a sip, then sprayed it on the big knife, and then wiped it with a coarse cloth, and was about to cut it at Cai Yong.

Somehow, Cai Yong suddenly laughed, but his laughter was more ugly than crying.

When the girl heard Cai Yong's laughter, tears fell "whoosh", and suddenly opened her mouth and sang:

"If you want to die, you can't get it, and if you want to live, you can't get it.

He who is innocent of the other is suffering from this calamity.

The border is deserted and gorgeous, and there is little righteousness among people.

There is a lot of frost and snow in the premises, and Hu Feng starts in spring and summer.

Blowing my clothes, solemn into my ears

······”

When the onlookers heard the girl's crying, they suddenly had a strange feeling, as if what she was singing was their life, and the crying in the singing made this life so real.

The people who felt the same wept one after another, and suddenly cried.

The executioner's eyes also became ruddy, and it was the first time that he couldn't bear to kill these people for so many years, so he had to close his eyes and not look at Cai Yong on the ground.

With a "poof", a stream of blood splattered out, staining the sky red.

Suddenly, the gray sky began to fall with heavy snow, and snowflakes like goose feathers kept falling.

The girl is the daughter of Cai Yong, named Cai Yan, the word Zhaoji, when she arrived in the Jin Dynasty, in order to avoid Sima Zhao's name, she changed the word Wenji.

Cai Yan's life is tragic, very legendary, three marriages in his life, upside down and exile for most of his life, the first time he married the talented Wei Zhongdao, the two married less than a year, Wei Zhongdao died of illness, the marriage was short, Cai Yan failed to give birth to a son and a half daughter to Wei Zhongdao, so Cai Yan took the name of Kefu, and Cai Yan, who couldn't stand the name of Kefu, returned to his parents' house in anger.

After Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun was in charge, killed Cai Yong, so that Cai Yan lost his only relative, and later Dong Zhuo's remnants of the party entered Chang'an, causing chaos in Guanzhong, the Huns took the opportunity to loot, Cai Yan was unfortunately taken away by the Huns, because Cai Yan was born beautiful, was accepted as a princess by the Xiongnu Zuoxian Wang, and gave birth to two sons.

Twelve years later, Cao Cao learned of Cai Yan's whereabouts, and remembered that Cai Yong was his mentor, so he sent someone to redeem Cai Yan and marry Cai Yan to Dong Ci.

Cai Yan watched her father's death, and her heart was extremely sad and indignant, in this world, she was the only one left.

······

"Let the brothers, when you are full and drunk, let's act tonight!" Guo Yan ordered to his subordinates.

Li Su took a long knife and wiped it carefully, and the killing intent in his eyes radiated from time to time.

The generals sitting around were excited, guarding Yiwu all day long, suffocating these people to death, although there was food and drink, and they didn't want to be cold, but they were not used to this kind of life, they were eager to kill and plunder!

"Brother Li Su, is that fellow of yours reliable? If this is a trap set by Wang Yun'er, it will be troublesome, and then we will be wiped out! Guo Yan asked.

Li Su Zhengse said: "Brother Guo Yan, please rest assured, that fellow of mine and I have a fateful friendship, I absolutely believe in this, otherwise when the time comes, I will lead people to kill it first, what will happen to you next, if you find that the situation is wrong, you will withdraw, so it will be fine!" ”

Guo Yan heard the coldness in Li Su's words, laughed dryly, and said: "Brother Li Su, I don't believe you, I'm the fellow who is worried about you, as the saying goes, the fellow sees the fellow and stabs him in the back, especially in this troubled world, be careful, since it is Brother Li Su's fellow who opened the city gate, I take the lead and don't recognize people, so Brother Lao Li Su goes first, and I follow." ”

Li Su glanced at Guo Yan and said, "No problem." But he scolded in his heart: Guo Yan, ** is an old fox than Dong Zhuo!

Night.

Li Su and Guo Yan led five thousand Xiliang soldiers towards Chang'an City, the heavy snow was still flying, the ground was already a foot of snow, and when they stepped on it, it was a deep footprint.

Yi Wu was the foundation of Li Su and Guo Yan, and the two left 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard them.

The heavy snow covered the sight of the defenders on Chang'an City, which just provided cover for the march of Li Su and Guo Yan.

Li Su, Guo Yan and the five thousand Xiliang soldiers all shrank their heads and trembled forward, on the way, Li Su and Guo Yan wanted to give up attacking Chang'an several times, on such a cold day, how cool it should be to hold a big beauty in Yi Wu to warm the quilt, Li Su and Guo Yan thought, but the hatred for Wang Yun in their hearts made them firm in the idea of attacking Chang'an.

By the time the 5,000 people arrived at the foot of Chang'an, almost everyone was on the verge of collapse. If the defenders of the city take a closer look, they will find that at what time, there are 5,000 snowmen piled up under the city?

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, it is a day of family reunion, the homes of the soldiers guarding the city are outside the gate, they are all unaccompanied here, at this time, looking at the people in the city and their families together, although their lives are hard, but they can be with their relatives, this is happiness.

The soldiers huddled in the house in twos and threes, drinking sake and nibbling on hard steamed buns, and the appearance of family appeared in their eyes from time to time.

They hadn't yet realized that danger was looming.

"Brother Li Su, if the city gate is not opened again, the brothers will freeze to death here." Guo Yan rubbed his hands together, trembling all over.

Li Su looked anxious and said, "My fellow is very trustworthy, wait a little longer, if you don't open the city gate after a while, we will leave." ”

"That's the only way~~~" Although Guo Yan wore several cotton clothes, he still couldn't stop the biting cold wind.

Guo Yan is so cold when he wears so much, not to mention those soldiers! They were armed with cold weapons, and they were wearing cold armor, and their faces were frozen to the ground, and many people on the way had fallen in the snow because they could not bear the cold invasion.

"Hurry up! Fellow, if you don't open the door again, brother, I will freeze to death~~~ Damn, the city gate will be opened later, Lao Tzu will be the first to cut you, dare to let Lao Tzu drink the northwest wind here! Li Su also had no bottom in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little angry, muttering indignantly.
