Chapter 626: In Whose Heart Is Everything
After a fight, the front yard of the palace was filled with a thick bloody atmosphere.
Many soldiers of the Luoyang Army, under the command of the officers, wrapped the corpses in linen cloth and carried them out of the palace.
Outside the Luoyang Palace, a group of heavily armed Luoyang troops have already curfew several nearby streets.
The time when LΓΌ Bu launched the rebellion coincided with the time when most of the people in the city had gone to the streets to seek a living, and the market was very lively with people coming and going.
The whole process of the rebellion was witnessed by many people in Luoyang City.
However, the rebellion did not last long, from Lu Bu leading the army to storm the palace to the Luoyang army quelling the rebellion, but only about half an hour passed.
After the rebellion was quelled, many well-meaning people wanted to come forward and see what was happening. But before they could reach the gate of the palace, they were driven to the nearby street by the Luoyang army, who was in charge of the curfew.
In front of the palace, the streets that are usually crowded with people are now bleak.
All the shops were ordered to close for the time being by the Luoyang army, and the people were driven away from this street, and there were no other idlers on the whole street, except for the Luoyang army standing a few every few steps.
The corpses were carried out of the palace, wrapped in linen cloth into three layers of corpses, and were thrown by the soldiers of the Luoyang Army onto the carriage that pulled the goods, and only when the carriage was full of them, was transported outside the city for burial.
The people who were crowded on the streets near the Luoyang Palace, when they saw the cars full of dead people coming towards them, turned sideways to make way for the carriages.
Looking at the carriage full of corpses, the people talked about it, and some people even scolded Lu Bu for being ungrateful and a slave with three surnames!
In the open space in the front yard of the palace, groups of soldiers of the Lu Bu Army were tightly bound and knelt in rows under the escort of the Luoyang Army.
The 700 soldiers in the camp under Lu Bu's pride also lost more than 200 people after this battle, and the rest saw that the general trend had gone, and Gao Shun surrendered, so they put down their weapons and surrendered to the Luoyang army.
Rows of soldiers of the Lu Bu Army knelt on the ground, and the black pressure was overwhelming, but it was also quite imposing.
Pressing the hilt of his sword with his hand, he strode towards the clearing, Liu Wei walked with a cold face, and turned his head to look at Lu Bujun who were kneeling on the ground.
His gaze was cold, cold like ice in winter, and anyone who intersected with his gaze couldn't help but shiver.
Behind Liu Wei were the generals of the Luoyang Army.
Walking past the captured officers and soldiers of the Lu Bu Army, the generals were also like Liu Wei, their eyes seemed to be able to breathe flames, staring at the Lu Bu Army who was kneeling in the black press.
When the generals walked by, several dragoon guards followed closely behind them, escorting Lu Bu, who was tied up with flowers.
In front of the rows of Lu Bujun soldiers kneeling on the ground, Liu Wei pressed the hilt of his sword, his brows twisted slightly, and his eyes wandered over the thousands of Lu Bujun who were kneeling on the ground.
"Get on your knees!" Escorting Lu Bu, in front of Liu Wei, a dragoon guard pressed Lu Bu's shoulder, raised his foot and kicked him violently in the crook of the leg.
The dragoon's kick was very fast.
Bearing the kick stiffly, Lu Bu's legs shook, but instead of kneeling, he straightened his body and turned his head to glare at the dragoon guard who kicked him.
Just as Lu Bu was glaring at the dragoon guard, a team of Luoyang troops walked in from the front gate of the palace.
The Luoyang army was divided into two columns, and there were many women between them.
Escorted by the soldiers of the Luoyang Army, many women were crying and crying, and when they entered the palace, the palace was suddenly covered with a thick cloud of sorrow because of their crying.
Walking in front of this team of women is Diao Chan.
Diao Chan did not cry like the women behind her, her expression was very calm, and her beautiful eyes were full of generosity to death.
was about to deal with Lu Bu, who was plotting rebellion, Liu Wei suddenly saw Diao Chan and couldn't help but wrinkle his brows.
Especially Diao Chan's eyes full of indifference, let him look at it, and he felt that it was very unpleasant in his heart.
I once thought about protecting Diao Chan and making up for everything I owed her, but I didn't expect that it was Luoyang Jun who was the first to tie her up!
"All on your knees!" The maids and servants of Diao Chan and Lu Bu's Mansion were escorted to the side of the soldiers of Lu Bu's army, and the officers of the Luoyang Army who escorted them shouted at these women.
The officer's shout was so sudden that many of the more timid women, after he had drunk it, immediately weakened their legs and knelt on the ground with a "poof."
There were also some women who were a little bolder, although they were not frightened by the officer's shouts and knelt on the ground, but when they saw that everyone else on the side was kneeling, they also quickly knelt down.
Among the entire team of women, only Diao Chan did not kneel.
A faint smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and she stood straight in front of a group of kneeling women, with an extremely complex emotion in her eyes, staring at Liu Wei from afar.
"Still on your knees?" Diao Chan did not kneel down, and the officer, who had just shouted at the women, yelled at her again, and was about to walk towards her.
"No need to kneel!" The officer had only taken two steps, and Liu Wei, who was not very close to Diao Chan, raised a hand, made a stop gesture to the officer, and said to him: "The princess has a noble status, if she kneels to the king, it will not sound good!" β
When Liu Wei said this, the officer hurriedly clenched his fists and bowed, first saluted him from a distance, and then stepped back and retreated to the position where he had just stood.
"Why is Your Highness so hypocritical!" Before the officer retreated, Diao Chan had an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to him in a very calm tone: "The reason why Wen Hou led the army to attack the palace is actually the will of this princess. I'm afraid that at this time, His Royal Highness wants to divide the five horses of Diao Chan into corpses to vent his anger......"
Diao Chan's words stunned Liu Bian's words, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
His brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes narrowed slightly, and after a long time, he asked Diao Chan, "Why did you instigate Wen Hou to betray this king?" β
"Your Highness should remember!" The upper body was tightly bound by hemp rope, Diao Chan's delicate body was straight, her eyes stared at Liu Wei without blinking, and the corners of her mouth always had that indifferent smile, and she said to Liu Wei: "When the Japanese princess once said that if she meets His Royal Highness again, she will definitely have a river of blood in the world!" β
Listening to what Diao Chan said, Liu Wei's brows tightened more and more.
He remembered what Diao Chan said that day, and also remembered what she wanted to say for Lu, and later when he reunited with Diao Chan, he was also worried, but Diao Chan never showed anything unusual, which made him feel a lot more relieved and less vigilant.
"When His Royal Highness crusaded against Gongsun Zhan, this princess sent assassins to ......" Seeing Liu Wei frowning, Diao Chan's tone was very flat and then said to him: "It's a pity that the guards next to His Highness are too strong, and the assassins have returned in vain......"
When Diao Chan said that he had sent assassins to assassinate Liu Wei that day, not only Liu Wei and the generals of the Luoyang Army were stunned, but even Xu Shu and Pang Tong, who had just received the news and arrived in a hurry, were also stunned.
They had been looking for the assassin who had assassinated Liu Bian, but they had never found a clue, and they did not expect that Diao Chan would admit that he had sent an assassin to assassinate Liu Bian after Lu Bu led his army into the Luoyang Palace.
I didn't expect Diao Chan to say these words, not only Liu Wei and others, but Lu Bu, who was bound like a dumpling by hemp rope, also opened his eyes and looked at Diao Chan with a stunned face.
The extremely shocking news made all the people present silent, and the front yard of Luoyang Wangfu fell into a quiet like death for a while.
"No!" The deathly silence almost made everyone present feel suffocated, and Lu Bu, whose hands were tightly bound, stared at his eyes as if he had lost his mind, staggered back two steps, and almost roared and shouted: "The princess has never done this!" The Assassins belong to a certain faction! β
"If you want to kill or chop, just come at me Lu Bu!" After the roar was over, Lu Bu frowned, stared at a pair of ringed eyes, glared at Liu Wei angrily, and yelled at Liu Wei.
"Be honest!" As soon as Lu Bu's roar fell, one of the dragoon guards standing behind him raised his foot and stomped on his thigh.
The dragon rider kicked him hard in the thigh, and Lu Bu staggered two more steps forward, almost falling to his knees.
He managed to hold his balance, and when he stood still, he turned his head to stare at the dragoon who had kicked him.
Seeing Lu Bu glaring at him, the dragoon guard stepped forward and raised his fist to make a gesture to fight.
Just as the dragoon guard raised his fist, Liu Wei shouted at him: "Don't do it!" β
Hearing Liu Wei shout the words "Don't do it", the dragoon guard hurriedly retracted his fist, bowed to Liu Bian, and retreated.
"What's the trouble with this?" Seeing that Lu Bu was about to bear the charge, Diao Chan smiled bitterly, his eyes were full of tenderness, he stared at Lu Bu affectionately, his lips opened lightly, and he said to Lu Bu faintly: "The concubine in this life can't wait for warmth, and she will repay her in the next life." Today, the concubine only wants to die, and there is nothing else to think about......"
Many of the people present couldn't understand the meaning of Diao Chan's words, but Liu Wei knew.
Although he is married to Lu Bu, Diao Chan's heart is always thinking about Liu Bi. Although he has never had too close contact with Liu Wei, Diao Chan's heart has never really been handed over to Lu Bu.
Staring at Lu Bu, tears welled up in Diao Chan's eye sockets.
It was only at this time that she really understood that in Liu Bi's heart, she was really not very important, but in Lu Bu's heart, she was all.
Pressing the hilt of the sword, Liu Wei first lowered his head, muttered for a moment, and then slowly raised his head and looked up at the blue sky.
There was also a strong smell of blood wafting in the air, which was the smell of the blood of the soldiers on both sides in the battle just now.
Turning his face to the sky, he slowly closed his eyes, and was silent for a long time before Liu Wei raised one arm and hovered it in mid-air, and the whole person was like a statue standing still.
