Chapter 971: Return
There, Li Ru and Xu Rong were leading their troops towards Luoyang City, and the cavalry's war horses stepped on the ground, kicking up puffs of smoke and dust. Behind the cavalry was the infantry brought by Xu Rong, so close to Luoyang City, the cavalry did not have to gallop quickly, so the infantry could also keep up with the speed of the cavalry.
As soon as the army left the barracks, they went to the top of the main road and saw a lot of passers-by. The troops brought by others in the distant barracks also saw this scene, but no one thought of what the army in Liangzhou was going to do, they just thought it was a normal army movement. No matter what, they couldn't have imagined that on such an ordinary day, at most one day that would be engraved in history because of the new emperor's accession to the throne, Dong Zhuo's army would go towards the purpose of replacing the emperor.
No one could have imagined that only a very small number of people would be able to grasp the slightest clue. As for the players who know more, they can just guess Dong Zhuo's purpose, and in terms of their influence, whether they know it or not, it will not have much impact on the situation.
In Li Ru's opinion, there are some things that he has already gone through in his mind, and he has come to the result. Although it has not been long since the Yellow Turban Rebellion was suppressed, after all, this is the capital of a country, and it is Luoyang City that has not been ravaged, who would have thought that another big impact would come?
No one thought that this was the opportunity that Li Ru wanted. The soldiers are prepared to attack others unprepared, and now they are the only worries they have on the prepared side, only the force that is constantly obstructing and opposing in Luoyang City, although so, fortunately, Li Ru already knows whose force it is. Targeted countermeasures are also available.
Here in front of the palace gate, after recognizing the queen mother, the original tense atmosphere immediately dissipated, and the Yulin guard guarding the palace gate put away his weapons and made way for him. Some of them have seen the Empress Dowager Dong from afar, so that they can't even recognize the Empress Dowager Dong.
Although there was news in the palace that the Empress Dowager Dong had returned to her hometown and died of illness, but now that the Empress Dowager Dong appeared alive in front of them, who could ignore her existence?
Even if Yu Linwei sensed that something was wrong and vaguely smelled the restless factor from the clues, there was no way, after all, Empress Dowager Dong was the queen mother. No one who can become a Yulin guard will be a fool, in addition to being strong in combat, everyone's IQ is not low, they can serve as guards in the palace, and if they are released, they are enough to become officers in an army.
Empress Dowager Dong took Liu Xie and walked towards the wide open palace gate, and Hua Xiong followed quickly, not leaving left and right. He received Dong Zhuo's death order, if the Empress Dowager Dong had a little accident, he didn't have any good fruit to eat.
"Wait, you can't get in." The two Yu Linwei shouted coldly, and took a step when Empress Dowager Dong walked past Hua Xiong to follow, and the staggered spears blocked in front of Hua Xiong.
Hua Xiong stopped, his hand holding the saber at his waist became tighter and tighter, and his face was even more gloomy as if it was about to drip water.
If it weren't for the fact that this was in front of the palace gate, in front of the palace gate, and on the palace wall, there were many Yulin guards, once he made a move, he would immediately be besieged and killed, he would not be so easy to speak, and he could force himself to suppress the anger in his heart. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if you are Yu Linwei or someone else, there is no way to beat him, and he will not say anything well, because at that time, the other party is already a dead person who can't speak.
Empress Dowager Dong stopped, turned around, and asked in a cold voice, "What if the mourning family let him in?" ”
"Of course you can." One of the Yulin guards replied without humility, but did not get out of the way, but continued: "But you must unarm your weapons. ”
Empress Dowager Dong nodded at this time, and did not care about Yu Linwei's attitude, but looked at Hua Xiong again, and said softly: "General Hua, you can untie the saber." ”
Hearing this, he didn't want to untie the saber anymore, and Hua Xiong also knew that he had to untie the saber. Because if he wants to bring a knife, then he will definitely not be able to enter the palace, and he will definitely not be able to protect the Empress Dowager Dong. He doesn't have a knife, but he doesn't have a knife, but he still has a pair of fists, doesn't he?
Untied the saber and handed it to Yu Linwei, Hua Xiong's glance was full of murderous aura.
The two Yu Lin Wei didn't react much, they just threatened, they didn't care. After taking the saber, he got out of the way.
Empress Dowager Dong and Liu Xie continued to move forward, Hua Xiong stepped to follow, the muscles under his robe were obviously tense, like a predatory beast, ready to pounce and fight at any time. He doesn't care if this is in the palace or not, in short, the palace is the palace, and it is not his, if he is not able to protect the death of the Empress Dowager Dong, he is not someone else.
Empress Dowager Dong walked on the palace road, with large stones under her feet, and some mottled spots left by years and wind and rain existed on it.
She has a lot of feelings in her heart, when she walked through the palace gate in the past, she was in a soft sedan chair, surrounded by many people. But this time, there was only Liu Xie by her side, and Hua Xiong, who stayed to protect them, was just three people.
I don't know when she was so weak.
Empress Dowager Dong stopped when she was about to approach the palace gate and pass through the corridor in the shadow of the palace gate, and looked up at the towering palace gate tower. Some dazzling sunlight shone down, and the two different temperatures in and outside the corridor were keenly sensed by her body.
On the way here, Empress Dowager Dong will have some hesitation and uneasiness, and even when she just got off the carriage and stepped on the ground, she was a little vain. But now, those hesitations and uneasiness are gone.
She can only win! Otherwise, there is only death waiting for her, which has to include his favorite grandson Liu Xie.
He will not show mercy because of her hesitation and uneasiness, and after knowing what He plans to do to her, he is destined to be only alive and dead.
Liu Xie also raised his head, but his feelings were not as profound as those of Empress Dowager Dong.
He didn't know what the Imperial Grandmother was looking at, but it didn't prevent him from looking in that direction.
His hands trembled, uneasy about the unknown.
The slight tremor in Liu Xie's palm was noticed by Empress Dowager Dong, and the palm of her hand holding Liu Xie's hand was held tighter, and Liu Xie's hand hurt a little, but the strange thing was that his hand was not shaking.
Holding Liu Xie's hand like this, and staying for a while, Empress Dowager Dong stepped forward again and walked towards the battlefield between her and Empress He.
