Chapter 20: Escape
Si Li, Henan Yin.
In a dark room, Wang Yun woke up slowly.
But does he feel that he is still in a dream, or that he has died and has gone under the Nine Springs?
This is all because the furnishings in the room are very different from before I fell asleep, not only is there no noisy shouting and pungent smell that fills the prison all day long, but there is also a faint smell of sandalwood when you smell it carefully, and even the partition log of the cell, which was originally exposed to the dark wind, seems to have been replaced by a solid roof......
Wang Yun got up and touched his body, and the rough prison clothes on his body were also changed, and the texture was good to the touch, and the fabric seemed to have been worn when he was still commonplace.
Touching the bed where he was lying just now, it was soft and warm, and it couldn't be compared with the thatched pile in the prison before, and it seemed that he had slept in the sky.
Isn't this a dream?
Before he fell asleep, he was still locked up in a prison in the capital, and he was a prisoner who had been convicted by the imperial court and was about to be executed.
For this reason, the jailer also sent a severed head of wine and food, saying that he would not be a starving ghost after eating!
Damn Yuan Kui and Yang Biao, you didn't even save me, damn eunuchs, you really dare to kill me!
Wang Yun always thought that this time the eunuch party and the scholar clan would definitely negotiate a settlement, and the most unfortunate thing under the compromise between the two sides was to confiscate the Wang family's property, and in the future, they would have to rely on others to live, but at least their lives were worry-free......
Since it's going to be so desperate now, let's all turn the table!
When Wang Yun heard that he was about to be beheaded, he began to shout, saying that he had something important to tell.
He wants to tell the eunuchs about the unsightly deeds of the Yuan family and the Yang family, since I can't get good, you don't want to live alone!
But when the jailer heard this, he agreed, and only said that he should not waste his food and drink, and when he had drunk it, he went to tell him.
Wang Yun hasn't eaten well for a long time, and since he is ready to go out, let's eat some wine and food first to recover some strength!
But after eating, he didn't remember, Wang Yun came back to his senses, he was drugged, right!?
Just as he was wondering, the door to the room was pushed open, and someone walked in and lit the lamps and candles in the room.
What Wang Yun didn't expect was that the person who came turned out to be his son Wang Jing.
"Jing'er, why are you, what's going on?"
Surprised to see his son, who was intact and had also changed into prison clothes, Wang Yun quickly got up from the bed and asked.
"Father, you're awake. Don't worry, sit down first, and let the child explain it to you......"
Seeing that his father was also fine, Wang Jing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, helped him sit down and explained slowly.
Wang Jing briefly told what happened, it turned out that all this was not a dream, they were all secretly exchanged prisoners by Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu and rescued from the prison!
"Not only the two of us, but also the eldest brother, as well as Wang Lei, the fourth uncle of the Wang family of Qi County, as well as the heads of the Wen family, the Jia family, the Hao family, the Hu family, the Jiexiu Guo family, the Song family, the Shangdang Linghu family, and the Di family were rescued, and I heard that a total of more than fifty people ......"
Wang Jing slowly told the news he had learned, which made Wang Yun close his mouth in shock.
In the current situation, it is very difficult to rescue so many people from the prison, even if it is to change prisoners, not to mention that these dozens of people are the core heads of each family!
Wang Yun's first reaction, this Yuan Shao and Yuan were too hand-eyed!
But calm down and think about it, he thinks that this is not the point, the point is why Yuan Shao did this, and what is his purpose!
Could it be that the eunuchs really dare to do such a desperate thing, and they will definitely kill them? So the Yuan family had no choice but to rescue them, the core figures of each family......?
If the Yuan clan gathered the strength of the entire clan to rescue them, Wang Yun would also believe that after all, the crown clan in the world would be the best.
But this is not scientific, the eunuch party is not tantamount to clearly going to war against the corporal clan of the world!
Do these geldings really have such courage?
"Father, what are you thinking?"
Wang Jing on the side saw Wang Yun's thoughtful appearance and asked.
"Hmm...... Nothing, what is the situation in the court, do you know? β
Wang Yun asked.
"Imperial Court ...... The imperial court is now in chaos, and there have been several rebellions in various parts of the state, the momentum is huge, His Majesty is angry to recall all the eunuch protΓ©gΓ©s, and then Yang Qiu, Cai Yong, Ma Riyan and others also returned to Beijing with the imperial history of the imperial history platform, and the two sides argued fiercely in the court......"
"This ...... How is this possible? β
Hearing what his son said, Wang Yun knew that the eunuch party was here this time, and this battle was really far beyond his imagination, especially when he heard that ten of the ten permanent servants of the eunuch party were finally imprisoned and beheaded, Wang Yun's jaw dropped in shock......
Is this 800 wounds to the enemy and 1,000 to oneself?
Why bother with the eunuchs?
Wang Yun was about to ask something, but he heard a commotion outside the house.
Someone immediately asked outside the house:
"Senior Brother Zi is awake, his younger brother is Song Yu of the Song family, how is Senior Brother Zi's health, can you come out and see him?"
Hearing that it was Song Yu, the head of the Song family in Taiyuan, and others, Wang Yun hurriedly straightened his clothes and went out to meet everyone.
This group of people are all people in power of the Bingzhou Shi clan, who used to be high-minded, well-dressed and well-fed, but now they have fallen into ruin, and they are all embarrassed and resentful when they meet.
However, they are still used to being led by the Wang family, so they all came to ask Wang Yun for ideas, what to do next.
"Such geldings are really crazy and stupid, but the matter has come to this point, so you can only obey the orders of Yuan Gong......"
Before everyone could continue to discuss, they saw Yuan Shao coming with several people.
The scholars of the state naturally stepped forward to thank Yuan Shao, but Wang Yun pulled Wang Jing to kneel directly and thanked him, Yuan Shao was suddenly shocked, and immediately helped Wang Yun to say that it was not necessary to do so......
While prevaricating, he introduced the people who came behind him, and put the credit for saving people on them.
Wang Yun heard the names of Liu Biao, Zhang Miao, Chen Chen, Wu Kuang, He Hao, Xu You and others, and he also sincerely thanked them again and again, these people are all celebrities in the Beijing circle, he has heard of them a little, but he has never seen them.
Now that Wang Yun's family has suffered a great disaster, although it will not be cut off, it is also a big injury, and it is a good thing not to be bullied in the future, so naturally he does not dare to take any shelf......
And Yuan Shao and the others did not have the contempt of being arrogant, so the atmosphere between the two sides was very harmonious.
Then Yuan Shao asked Wang Yun and the others what they planned next.
Most of the heads of the family led by Wang Yun chose to return to Bingzhou and prepare for a comeback.
After all, in Bingzhou, they still have a lot of hidden power left, and if they make good use of it after they go back, they can still restore some vitality to the family.
Of course, they also said that if the Yuan family was sent in the future, they would also be duty-bound.
There are also several family heads who expressed their willingness to rely on Yuan's subordinates from now on.
First, it is to repay the Yuan family for saving their lives, and secondly, because their family is originally weak, and after this catastrophe, the foundation of the clan is completely lost, even if they go back, they will be no different from the common people......
Yuan Shao readily agreed to both options, and promised to send someone to escort Wang Yun and the others back to the state, just reminding them that they could no longer use their original identities to prevent exposure......
In Yuan Shao's opinion, there is no longer a Dashi clan in Bingzhou, and these people can still recover some influence when they go back, so the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.
In this way, his goal will be achieved, and if there is something going on in the future, he can also exert influence......
ββββ
After settling down and settling down with the heads of the state, Yuan Shaocai took Liu Biao and others out of the house.
This is the northern suburb of Luoyang, a secret private mansion of Zhang Miao, temporarily lent to Yuan Shao to settle Wang Yun and others.
"Jingsheng, you have to go to Zhou Lingchang's place on my behalf."
Out of the private mansion, Yuan Shao stopped and thought about it and said.
"Oh? Who was this going to save in the first place? For example, in today's prison, there are all side branches and house slaves, and there is no master of the scholar clan anymore. β
Before Liu Biao could answer, Xu You, who had always prided himself on being smart, asked first.
"It's just to save a few more eunuchs......"
