In the first battle of Guangzong, Zhang Liang died in battle, and tens of thousands of yellow turbans threw themselves into the river and died. In the city, Zhang Bao saw that the general trend had gone, fled from the city, and rushed to Xiaquyang to chase and kill Huangfu Song and others.

After the battle, the main force of the Yellow Turban has died, and all that remains is sporadic fire, and there is no strength to subvert the world.

The mighty yellow scarves have gradually died out.

But although the yellow turban is gone, the seeds of troubled times have been planted, and they will only take root and sprout when the time is right.

-------------------------------------

Yuzhou, also known as Zhongzhou, has always been an important place in the world. Even in the Central Plains, it is considered a first-class rich land, which is one of the reasons why the yellow scarves are mostly here.

In a luxurious mansion in the state of Qiaoxian County, Prince Wang Yun, the new assassin of Yuzhou, who had made great achievements in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, was standing alone in the backyard.

The courtyard was quiet, and he stood with his hands in his hands, looking down at the few letters thrown on the table.

This is the private residence of Zhang Rang's guests, and the letters on the table were found from the secret room in the house, and on them are evidence of the collusion between the guests and the yellow turbans.

He sighed, but unfortunately he found it late.

If it had been earlier, the Son of Heaven was afraid of the power of the Yellow Turban, and Zhang Rang would definitely not have escaped death. It's a pity that now that the general trend has been decided, there is no threat to the yellow scarf, even if there is a letter in hand, the Son of Heaven, who already favors eunuchs, may not do anything to these eunuchs.

What's more important is that those eunuchs in the court have always held grudges, and if they fail to strike a blow, they are afraid that they will suffer disasters.

Even if he was born in the Taiyuan royal family, he may not be able to save his life.

Wang Yun hesitated, and after a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind and held the letter on the table in his hand.

On the second day, Wang Yun wrote a letter and asked the guests to fornicate with the yellow scarf. Most of his people were instructed by Zhang Rang and had a heart of disobedience.

As he expected, Emperor Ling really raised it high and put it down gently, although he reprimanded Zhang Rang, but he never punished Zhang Rang.

And Zhang Rang is a figure who must be repaid, so he naturally holds a grudge against Wang Yun.

So Zhang Rang framed Wang Yun with his affairs, wanting to unjustly kill him in prison, and didn't want Wang Yun to be pardoned and assassinated.

It's just that Wang Yun has just arrived, and he was framed by Zhang Rang in a few days.

Wang Yun has always been friendly with Yang Ci, but Yang Ci couldn't bear to see him humiliated like this, and he lost the face of the Wang clan. secretly sent a message to Wang Yun, Zhang Rang was narrow-minded and asked him to think about it.

Yang Ci's family is famous, and what he said is nothing more than asking him to ask for "decency".

And the face in the eyes of the scholars. Most of them have to be exchanged for their lives.

Wang Yun's subordinates had many energetic people, and prepared a hot soup mixed with poison to Wang Yun, wanting him to do his best, but he was knocked over by him.

Wang Yun stood up and shouted, "I am a courtier, if I am guilty and deserve to be punished by the state, how can I take poison and die!" ”

He went out and rushed to Luoyang with the escort.

It's just that in the car, this upright Bingzhou people have changed their minds in their hearts.

He will be patient.

-------------------------------------

In the second year of Guanghe, Emperor Ling gathered the world's wealth in Luoyang. Those who are awarded officials must first go to the West Garden to negotiate the price, and then they can go to the official office, among which those who are honest and refuse to pay the silver money are mostly forced to go.

In this way, there are two interesting things, rich families can use this to buy officials, and even the position of the third prince is not impossible to look at, such as the famous Cui family and the Cao family where Cao Cao is located.

And innocent people who have no money in their hands are often forced to be officials.

Hanoi, Sima Zhi's house, Sima Zhi, who was dressed in shabby single clothes, looked helplessly at the messenger in front of him.

It turned out that the court heard that he had always had a clean reputation and wanted to appoint him as the Taishou of Julu, but he had been urged many times before, but he was dragged down by him because he was seriously ill.

Now that the mission is coming again, I think most of them can't be delayed.

"Sima Jun, this is a good thing that no matter how many people ask for it, this is a good thing that no matter how many people ask for it. Before the change of the party, how many people are going to fight for the head, why do you have to resign again and again? ”

The person who passed on the fate was a rather handsome young man, surnamed Han Ming, dressed in brocade clothes, and full of luxury.

can be used in front of the Son of Heaven at such a young age, and I think he is a nobleman from a family in Luoyang.

For example, since today's son has let go of the party, they, the families at the feet of the Son of Heaven, will naturally benefit first.

Sima Zhi laughed and pointed to the old clothes on his body, "Han Jun thinks I can pay this money to buy officials?" ”

"If Sima Jun really can't afford it, I'll put it on for Sima Jun for the time being." Han Yu pursed his lips, the money was not worth his attention.

In the past few days, he also saw that Sima Zhi was a character, and he could spend some money to make friends with this person, and his family was very happy to come.

"Han Jun can borrow it, but how can Sima Zhi pay it back?"

"Sima Jun thinks a little more, as long as you take office, someone will naturally send you money, and these expenses will not be recovered in a long time."

Sima Zhiyan just smiled when he heard this, and said: "Zhifei is Xiang Xu, you can't make people look down on the Hanoi scholars." ”

It turned out that on the day of the Yellow Turban, the famous man of Hanoi Xiang Xu actually wrote to the court and read through the Book of Filial Piety to return the thief. As a result, he was naturally collected and killed by Emperor Ling, which also made the Hanoi scholars laugh for a while.

The emaciated scholar stood up and walked towards the inner room, "Han Jun stay, I'll go repair a book." ”

Han Gao naturally agreed, as long as Sima set off straight, he would not come to this trip in vain this time.

This Sima Zhi can be regarded as knowing the current affairs, the court has actually run out of patience, if he should not go down this time, I am afraid that the next time the person who comes to the door will no longer come to the door to announce the decree, but to arrest him and put him in prison.

In the back room, Sima Zhi lifted the pen several times and put it down. After a long time, I settled my mind, and then I wrote the book.

On the second day, Sima Zhi set off with Han Gao and rushed to Luoyang.

-------------------------------------

On this day, they came to Mengjindu.

There are many ferries coming and going on the ferry, but looking at it, most of the people crossing the river are poor people in ragged clothes with children and daughters.

In the past, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was mostly in the Central Plains, so many people from the south crossed to the north, but now the Yellow Turban Rebellion has subsided for the time being, and the people who left home at the beginning are gradually returning to their homeland.

On the carriage, Sima lifted the curtain on the car and looked at the people who crossed the river at the ferry.

"People in the world have multiple homelands, and it is often said that it is difficult to leave their homeland, if they are not forced to do so, who is willing to give up their hometown and run in all directions?"

Han Gao, who was sitting in the same carriage with him, glanced out of the window, and then said with a smile: "Now that the yellow scarf has been decided, they won't return to their hometown." As long as you go back to work in peace, you will definitely be able to live a peaceful life in the future. ”

"The yellow scarves are decided, can they really live a stable life?" Sima tugged at the corners of his mouth.

Han Yu on the other side was stunned when he heard this.

He was born rich and noble, he has never been short of money, and he has lived in the prosperous land of Luoyang since he was a child.

There are some things that I have never experienced firsthand, so I naturally don't know the difficulties in them.

Sima leaned back on the carriage behind him, muttering something in his mouth.

Han Gao listened attentively, and it turned out to be a few words from the book.

The public did not cross the river, the public actually crossed the river, and the crossing of the river was death.

"What is it?" Sima Zhi muttered to himself.

That night, Sima Zhi, who was about to serve as the Taishou of Julu, took poison and died.

-------------------------------------

Much later, Liu Bei, who had long since returned to Beihai, received a letter from Hanoi.

There are not many words in the letter, the front is to talk about the old feelings, and at the end of the letter, it is to give the future.

Liu Bei has not drunk alcohol for a long time since returning from the crusade against the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou.

It's just that after reading the contents of the letter today, he got drunk for the first time.

There is one less old man in the world.
