The high-ranking officials and lords of the entire Han court knelt under the high platform, and the emperor's head was placed at the top of the sacrifice.

A ceremony to pay homage to the emperor is taking place in the palace.

"The Most High and Holy Emperor:

The world is declining, Li Shu is dying, Jiaozun obeys your edict, and comes to the world to save the defeat of the Han family and continue the destiny of the Han family.

However, the king of the Han family was mediocre and powerful, and the party dominated the world, causing the loyal ministers to disappear in the temple.

The ministers of the Han family were greedy and cruel like tigers, leopards and jackals, and the party was the same as the other, and rejected the loyal and good.

Under the two phases, the mandate of heaven of the Han family is like a river and the sun is falling, and it is irretrievable.

Surrendered to the difficulties of the world, by this destiny, so cheer up.

It is difficult to save the Han Ting, it is easy to die in the Han Dynasty, and it is a success.

Today, the head of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is enclosed here as a sacrifice.

The ministers do not dare to be greedy, only respectfully carry out the emperor's order, only hope that the emperor will descend to the new lord of the mandate of heaven as soon as possible, and may the Liuhe, among the eight wildernesses, be stable as soon as possible, and unify the summers. ”

Luo Xiao stood very high, so his voice traveled far away.

Now he stands on the highest place in the world, so that his voice can be heard in the whole world.

Luo Xiao did every step step by step.

From breaking the Mandate of Heaven of the Han Dynasty above the Nine Heavens, to the defeat of wars one after another, which made the entire ruling class of the Han Dynasty fall into self-doubt, and then to using the emperor's head to worship the emperor, piercing the little sense of sacredness attached to the emperor, and finally announcing it to the world.

Never ignore the role of words.

This sacrificial text is of great use, and those who are loyal to the Han family will always continue to be loyal.

But those who have doubts in their hearts, and even have other ambitions, but are bound, can get rid of the shackles and do whatever they want through this one thing.

……

In Luoyang City, a group of soldiers of the Taiping Army were holding the heads of those ministers high, parading the streets of Luoyang City, and broadcasting in real time who this head was.

Not all ministers were paraded into the streets, and Han Chen, who died by self-execution, such as Lu Zhi, was sent back to the mansion that night, so that his family could live and settle down.

Some ministers are not dead, some ministers are self-judged, and some ministers are beheaded, this obvious difference in treatment makes all kinds of gossip in Luoyang City suddenly fly all over the sky.

"I heard that the Taiping Army is doing the right thing for heaven, so these ministers who were beheaded must be those traitors who have brought disaster to the country and the people."

"I didn't hear what the Taiping Army said, the emperor was also beheaded, and he sacrificed to the emperor in the palace, and the sound just now came from the sacrifice to the emperor."

"These ministers and the emperor are treated the same, then they are definitely not good people, after all, the emperor is a faint king."

These remarks spread wildly among the people, especially after the death of these ministers, like the emperor, the emperor's inaudible reputation was suddenly contaminated with these ministers.

"The head of the Ten Permanent Servants has arrived!"

I don't know who shouted, the city was silent for a while, and then instantly set off a boundless scolding, "These traitors are finally dead."

Beloved, you can finally look away. ”

This is a scene that has never appeared before when the head of the minister on the street has never appeared, from the scholars to the most ordinary people, all eager to eat their flesh and blood, the difference in the reputation of the ten permanent servants, and the number of evils, it is impossible to wash away even the water of the Luo River.

"The Taiping Army must be doing the right thing for heaven."

The people's simple concept of justice, killing faint kings, traitorous ministers, and ten permanent servants, but letting go of those ministers who have always had a clear name and a good name, what is this not for heaven?

What's more, since the Taiping army entered Luoyang City, everyone thought that the Taiping army would take over the whole city, burn, kill and loot, and I don't know how many families have even been ready to burn jade.

But I didn't expect that after the Taiping army entered the city, it could not be said that there was no crime, but basically there was no contact with the people in the city, but just according to the order of Shangfeng, let the people go out on time to watch the parade.

These actions of the Taiping Army not only relieved the people of Luoyang, but even made some scholars completely change their minds, thinking that the Taiping Army was not a thief, but really carried out the decree of heaven.

In fact, of course, the Taiping Army is not a high-spirited army, and the soldiers below have long wanted to rob, but they were strongly suppressed by the commanders, and the minds of the commanders were blocked by Luo Xiao.

But this was not done by Luo Xiao on his own initiative, but by the commanders of the Taiping Army, who figured out Luo Xiao's mind and did it themselves, of course, it was very much in line with Luo Xiao's thoughts.

In the streets and alleys of Luoyang, there are Taiping troops recording the reaction in the city, and then reporting to Luo Xiao layer by layer.

In the palace, after the ceremony of paying homage to the emperor was completed, the Taiping army of the brigade began to enter the yamen to take over Luoyang, how could it be enough to kill a little minister?

The ten permanent servants, ministers, clan relatives and relatives, each of them is the leader of a force, and there are many people under his command who are not qualified to enter the palace, but they have done all the bad things, which are the targets of the Taiping Army.

The people in Luoyang City watched as a family of powerful people were arrested and taken to the palace, as well as those ruffians and hooligans who did things for the powerful and oppressed the good, and the Taiping Army accepted reports.

……

There were disturbances outside the palace, but the palace was quiet.

Qu Shuai gathered around Luo Xiao, you look at me, I look at you, and finally Zhang Yan, who was the most respected, stepped forward and asked a question that everyone was very concerned about.

"Dao Master, the Han court has perished, and those fleeing princes are just waiting for death in front of you.

As the saying goes, you can't be left without an owner for a day, when are you going to ascend the throne and become an emperor? ”

As soon as Zhang Yan said this, all the Taiping Army commanders looked at Luo Xiao with some excitement.

When the uprising was just now, no one thought that there would be such a day, but with the attack on Luoyang City, this thought suddenly burned in everyone's hearts like a flame.

If Taiping Dao can really get the world, then these people are the founding fathers.

The founding ministers of Henkel, the worst have enjoyed a hundred years of wealth, as long as they don't go too far, they have lasted for two hundred years, if it were not for Wang Mang's chaotic government, Emperor Guangwu would have reopened the world, and it would have continued.

Look at the seven families with five surnames in Kanto, that's a three-hundred-year-old nobleman!

Who wouldn't want their family to be a part of it?

Then the excited Taiping Army Qu Shuai felt that the Dao Master's expression was very strange, because there was no trace of excitement.

This made them all a little uneasy, although the Dao Lord has always been calm except when he was in command of the army, but this is an opportunity to become the Lord of the World!

Why doesn't the Taoist seem to be interested?

"Dao Master, you ......"

Someone asked in a low voice, opening his mouth but not knowing what he should ask.

Luo Xiao stood up from the hall and walked to the front of the palace gate, looking at the white clouds on a sunny day, there was a faint smell of blood in the air, the liquidation in Luoyang City had not yet ended, and the Qu Shuai of the Taiping Army couldn't wait to start wanting to enthrone himself.

Luo Xiao doesn't blame them for being a group of normal ordinary people, fighting the world desperately, not just to enjoy themselves.

"What do you want after the accession of the Lord of the Dao?

Belle?

There are countless noble ladies in this Luoyang City, each of which is something that you could not touch in the past, and there are many palace ladies and concubines in this palace.

Money?

After the liquidation in the city is over, the Taoist lord will open the treasury and give all the property of those ministers to you and the soldiers of the Taiping army, so that there is no need to go to the whole city to ask for those ordinary people.

If you only need these, I can give them to you now, accompany me all the way from Jizhou, and contribute to the world, this is what you deserve. ”

Wrong!

Something really isn't right!

At this time, even the most sluggish Qu Shuai also felt that the state of the Dao Lord was not right, this was not at all like he was going to ascend the throne and become the emperor.

Why is there not only no half of excitement, but also a feeling of explaining the future?

"Dao Master, don't you want to be the emperor?"

This is the only reason that everyone can come up with, but as soon as the words come out, they want to beat themselves, how can there be anyone in this world who doesn't want to be an emperor?

The last one who didn't want to be the Son of Heaven was still the emperor of Suwang?

There has been such an example throughout the ages, and he really rejected the position of the Son of Heaven at his fingertips.

"It seems that even you don't believe that our Taiping Dao is to honor the order of heaven to break through the Han Court."

Luo Xiao turned to look at the Taiping Army Marshals with a confused face, "I told you a long time ago that the fate of Taiping Dao is to crush the destiny of the Great Han, and now this fate has been completed, and my mission is over, so you never believed it?" ”

Luo Xiao's words made all the commanders of the Taiping Army feel a little confused, is it true that the Mandate of Heaven is such an ethereal thing?

Along the way, I haven't seen you call for wind and rain like King Zhaosheng, nor have I seen you come to the world with the assistance of Tianyu like Emperor Guangwu, how can you respect the orders of heaven?

Guan Hai, a majestic man with his eyes turned red directly, and said loudly: "Dao Master, how ethereal is the saying of the Mandate of Heaven, those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and now that you have come to this point, if you don't ascend the throne, do you still want to retire?"

We don't care, but how can you?

Did the Mandate of Heaven only let me wait to break the Mandate of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, but did it not give me the destiny of waiting to sit in the world?

So what is such a destiny going to do?

As long as you are the emperor, if the emperor has any blame, I will bear it all by myself.

For your sake, even if you die in this palace on the spot, I am willing. ”

As soon as Guan Hai said this, the crowd suddenly became excited and said: "Dao Master, I am also willing, please ascend the throne, how can you be missing in this world?"

If you go to the world and ask, as long as our Taiping army passes, who would not want you to ascend the throne?

Is the heart of the world not as good as the will of God? ”

A trace of indescribable emotion appeared in Luo Xiao's eyes, he had the heart of all the people, he felt the beating of his heart, and looked at Zhongqu Shuai.

The Qu Shuai fell silent because they all sensed that the Dao Master had something to say.

"I'm going to die!"

Boom Boom!

In the middle of the sunny day, suddenly several thunders resounded over the palace!

The entire people of Luoyang City were shocked by the sudden sound of thunder, but no matter how loud this thunder was, it was not as loud as the thunder in the minds of these commanders.

They couldn't believe what they had just heard, Zhang Yan turned his head with difficulty and looked at Guan Hai stiffly, "Did I hear it wrong just now?" ”

Guan Hai knelt directly on the ground, obviously a majestic man, but he cried bitterly in an instant, "Dao Master, you must have lied just now, how could you die suddenly?" ”

Luo Xiao instantly knelt in front of him, and everyone didn't want to hear what they heard, although the lifespan of a martial arts powerhouse is indeed a little shorter than the normal lifespan of ordinary people, but the age of the Dao master is not too old, how can he die?

"This is the price of breaking the mandate of heaven of the Han family, the century-old national fortune of the Han family was broken in one day, how can it be possible without paying some price?"

Luo Xiao said calmly, and said in his heart: "Your true great sage and good teacher have already paid for their lives, plus the life of a Dao master, there is no loss. ”

Luo Xiao's words of confirmation made all Qu Shuai despair, and they lost all their direction at once, and they didn't even know what they should do.

"I can still live for a while, don't worry too much, wait until I finish things in Luoyang City, and find a good way out for you.

After this period of training, you are all rare talents.

I would like to choose for you some marriages of the noble clans, and then you will each lead your army to the county where the Nashi are located.

When I die, you will have your own army, and you will be princes, and you will divide and defend your land, and you will not have any trouble.

In such troubled times, bend down to keep your points, wait for the time, and when the time is right, you will take refuge in the princes who have a future and can compete for the world.

It's a pity that there are no talents among you who can dominate the overall situation, otherwise the Taiping Road will be handed over to you, and you may be able to compete for the position of the Son of Heaven in the future.

Now you can only disperse, you are all from the Taiping Dao, you can watch and help each other, no matter which prince will attach great importance to you. ”

Hearing that Luo Xiao had planned the future path for them, there was some relief in everyone's sadness, and it could be seen from the words that the Dao Master had long known that his life was short, but he had been hiding it from his own people.

But in retrospect, what can you do without hiding?

Since the Taiping Road incident between states and counties, they have embarked on a road of no return, and now this is the best ending.

At least none of the supreme emperors accused them of rebellion, at least they jumped up and entered the chessboard of the world.

Thinking of this, Guan Hai kowtowed heavily again, and cried: "Dao Master! ”

Just after appeasing the Qu Shuai, Luo Xiao felt that his emotions were a little more, and he turned to look at Qingtian again, thinking about what else he hadn't done?

————

Whether it is ancient or modern, there is no lack of regret for Zhang Jiao's sudden death, and the reason for the collapse of the Taiping Road in the middle of the day is attributed to this, but after the author has studied the deeds of the Taiping Army, it is surprising to find that all the arrangements of these Qu Shuai are based on the premise that Zhang Jiao is not the emperor, in other words, Zhang Jiao has long learned the news of his death, which is unbelievable, but it is so, and on this premise, many doubts have been reasonably explained. - "The Legend of Zhang Jiao"
