Chapter 17: The Death of He Jin (2)
The night is close to night, and the people are not quiet. When a group of soldiers were in the sound of Jinge, they headed towards Nangong. The sound of barking and cursing began again.
With Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Wu Kuang and other troops leading armor, a burning torch illuminates the wide straight road in front of the Vermilion Bird.
In front of Suzaku Que, the military generals dismount and the civil officials get off, this is the rule. Even if He Jin is in charge of the power of the world and is above 10,000 people, he does not cross the courtesy and refuses to accompany the army.
Only the Huben Zhonglang, who was left to report in the palace, brought Yuan Shu and Wu Kuang, the commander of the guards, with a small team, and the rest of the men and horses returned to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to wait outside the palace.
Obviously, Zhang Rang and the others wanted this, and they laughed when they brought hundreds of people into the palace.
Easy to enter the palace, as usual, there is no doubt that He Jin, who is empty-eyed, took the lead, and all the forbidden troops and palace people he saw avoided saluting, and he did not notice any danger at all.
Today's Empress Dowager He, since the expulsion of Dong, has moved to the palace and now lives in the Jiade Hall for a long time.
In the past, he was at odds with the Dong family, and belonged to the inner court, although He Jin came to the Jiade Hall many times, not as much as the Changqiu Palace where He Hou lived, but he often came recently, and he was still familiar with it.
Maybe he was afraid that his sister would wait for a long time, or maybe he was afraid that there was something urgent in the night summons, and he didn't notice anything unusual, and he walked quickly, and he entered the Jiade Gate less than half an hour after the edict was issued.
As soon as you enter the Garter Gate, the conspiracy begins. When he saw the color of the sword soldiers, the eunuch who had been guarding here for a long time immediately issued an edict, and the queen mother only ordered the general to be alone, and the rest of the foreign troops were not allowed to enter.
As soon as they heard this, Yuan Shu and Wu Kuang, who were guarding the left and right, quit, and earlier they assured the rest of the generals that they would guard He Jin in a comprehensive manner, but now how could they let He Jin enter the Jiade Hall alone.
However, He Jin, who had been annoyed by the generals and strategists all night, had no leisure to listen to their nagging, and immediately waved his hand to let them all exit the Jiade Gate, claiming that there was no danger in his sister's summoning.
Helplessly, He Jin insisted, Yuan Shu and Wu Kuang looked left and right, and only nodded and promised.
Then he glanced at the somewhat unwilling generals, He Jin shook his head amusedly, and muttered; 'I am a general, in charge of the world, who can help me' stepped away.
When the figure of the great general He Jin slowly disappeared into the depths of the corridor, the originally open palace door slowly closed.
But even so, Yuan Shu and Wu Kuang, who had just been criticized, had not yet realized the danger.
has been to the Jiade Hall many times, He Jin naturally does not need to be guided, and travels all the way. It's just that after entering the Jiade Palace, the palace lamp that was obviously much dim made He Jin puzzled, and when he stepped up, he couldn't help but unconsciously touch the sword on his waist.
It was only at this time that He Jin secretly regretted in his heart, he shouldn't have completely refuted the kindness of his subordinates. It would not be a good thing to have two guards by his side at this moment.
Afraid of something, He Jinzheng silently thought in his heart that he was a general, who dared to be rude, and the sound of galloping left and right made him lose his square inch.
"General! It's been a long time, ......" Zhang Rang, who was holding a sharp blade and finally straightened his waist in front of He Jin, appeared.
Zhang Rang...... What do you want to do!! When he was alone and surrounded by dozens of sharp blades, He Jin, who had never experienced this, was obviously panicked, and wanted to draw his sword, but his hands couldn't stop trembling.
"General, we have known each other for many years, and your brother and sister have today, if it weren't for our support, would it be possible? The first emperor had a discord with the Queen Mother and almost abolished the Queen Mother. It was we who wept and rescued, and each of us took out tens of millions of family wealth as gifts, and the meaning of Emperor Yue. Now that the general is in power, we will serve with all our might, and I wanted to rely on your He clan's portal. But now you want to kill our race, can't you say? Now that the cauldron is broken, Zhang Rang has no scruples, and he holds a sword.
"Why doesn't the old man remember, you think I want to kill you! It is really you who have committed public anger and disturbed the court, and the people of the world cannot tolerate you, if it were not for the old man and the queen mother to stop it, you can live to this day! Obviously forced by the current situation, He Jin has no past style, and it is obvious that someone said softly.
"Hahaha! Is the chaos in the world just the sin of my generation? You say that the palace is filthy and pickled, so who is loyal and honest below the minister? Good! Since you can't tolerate us today, then we can't keep you either......" Since he has already started his work, there is no turning back when he opens the bow, and Zhang Rang, who has never been a good man and a woman, has a murderous face.
"Wait until you dare to kill me! Aren't you afraid that the soldiers and horses outside the palace will be killed...... "In the face of death, no one is exempt from vulgarity, even if he was an invincible general earlier."
"Then there is no need for the general to worry about it, thanks to the general who forced your love to be anxious, you have the intention of dealing with Jiang Qi by transferring foreign troops into Beijing, right? It's nothing more than that you're worried that Jiang Qi will be bad for you, he really isn't easy to get along with. You know? Jiang Qi had already made the first move, not only secretly entering the palace to unite with us, but also dispatching troops to enter Beijing with thousands of men. An hour ago, Zhong saw it, and it was in the city's old residence, the Yiyang Marquis Mansion. 5,000 people, strong soldiers and strong horses, the commander of the team, the general should have heard of it, the child of the five tiger generals is far winged! Just wait for me to wait for the palace to cause an incident, and the signal will be issued, and the people outside your palace will be destroyed in an instant, General! "People are dying, and there is nothing to hide, Zhao Zhong replied kindly.
"What...... Jiang Qi bears me, Jiang Qi bears me!! Needless to say, as soon as he heard Jiang Qi's name, He Jin finally understood what the Ten Standing Attendants would be so confident, and immediately lost his momentum and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Zhang Rang was no longer polite, and after a look, Shang Fang Jian Qu Mu drew his sword, that is, he entered the front of the Jiade Palace.
As soon as the general died, Zhang Rang and the others didn't care about it, and then sent someone to inform Jiang Qi, and then overshadowed him, using the former Taiwei Fan Ling as the division and the school as the school, and the Shaofu Xu Xiang as Henan Yin. Prepare to control Luoyang's government affairs and military defense first.
It's a pity that none of these things can be perfected at one time, not to mention that there is still a He Jin personal army outside the Jiade Hall at the moment.
When they waited for a long time, He Jin hadn't seen him yet, and Yuan Shu and Wu Kuang, who had been distracted, were in a hurry, but in front of them was the inner court, and they didn't dare to break in, so they had no choice but to let their guards shout in unison, 'Please return to the general'......
But it's okay if you don't call, and a bloody ball is thrown out from behind the palace wall. When everyone saw it, they were stunned! Why didn't he call He Jin out, but called his head out.
But there was no need for them to be confused, and a voice immediately followed: "He Jin rebelled, and he has been given death by the edict of the Son of Heaven......"
is also a sentence, so that the stunned people reacted, He Jin is dead, the general who was still high-spirited and laughing just now died like this, and when he said goodbye, it was goodbye.
How could the lord and the dead minister steal his life, and then a wave of anger defeated Wu Kuang's rationality, and immediately pulled out the sword on his waist and said angrily: "The eunuch Jiao Zhao killed the general, and follow me into the palace to avenge the general......"
"Kill into the palace and avenge the general......" originally expected to follow He Jin to fly Huang Tengda, but now that He Jin is dead, Yuan Shu was also shocked, and he also pulled out his sword at the moment, shouting and killing regardless of it.
The generals who led the troops gave orders, how could the soldiers under them dare to sit idly by, after all, they were all He Jin's personal soldiers, and there were many people who received his favor, whether it was an order or a recitation of his grace, all those present embraced it. The sound of swords and guns and shouts of killing immediately resounded throughout the palace.
However, although Wu Kuang and Yuan Shu did it, the tall gate of the Jiade Palace blocked their hatred, and they all entered the palace lightly, who would have thought that they could fight a battle, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds in their hands could not open the palace gate at all.
Helpless for a while, there was nowhere to vent his anger, and the bold Yuan Shu immediately asked people to set fire to the Qingzuo Gate of the South Palace, wanting to threaten the palace to hand over Zhang Rang and others. It's a pity that the power in the palace at this moment is Zhang Rang, and it can't work at all.
Fortunately, at this moment, there are smart people among the generals, and it is immediately recommended to remove one of the temple pillars as a battering ram and hit the palace gate.
This side rose out of anger, the voices of people were boiling, and they could be heard outside the South Palace. Just when Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were pacing, not knowing the reason, a fast horse reported to the palace gate.
Hearing the news, like Wu Kuang and Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao immediately burst out, blaming He Jin in their hearts for not listening to the advice, and they didn't care about it anymore. After drawing the sword, a campaign to clear the eunuchs in the palace began.
In the murderous palace of the army, there is no rationality, and between the swords and swords, whether men and women, guilty or not, they all fall between blood and anger. Especially those who dress up as eunuchs, all of them are powdered.
When the palace was on fire and the shouts of killing broke the peace of Luoyang, Zhang Rang and the others, who had just been happy for a moment, woke up, as if everything was out of control, and the rebels entered the palace, and now they can't control it.
As for the so-called alliance Jiang Qi earlier, there was no trace of him, and the palace people who went to report the news were gone, but there was no such thing at all.
Even if I don't want to believe it, I seem to be thinking about whether I have been betrayed. It's just that at the moment, between life and death, I don't want to believe in a fact.
Seeing that the shouts of killing were getting closer and closer, the Yellow Gate guards who could still be commanded by his subordinates were no match for the soldiers who were blinded by hatred. When the general trend was gone, Zhang Rang made a decision, immediately captured the Empress Dowager He, the Son of Heaven, and King Chen Liu, and fled to the North Palace in order to make other plans.
Maybe they're still expecting reinforcements at the moment.
Hearing that his brother was killed, he saw that the Ten Permanent Servants of the Qing Dynasty were clear-eyed, and the Empress Dowager He, who had lost her face, regretted not being at the beginning. During the struggle, he only complained about his ignorance and killed his brother.
Perhaps it was Empress Dowager He's sadness that played a role. When the middle official and everyone wanted to escape from the Tianqiao Pavilion Road to the North Palace, a tall figure stood in front of the road, and the Changge in his hand was destined to be stained with blood.
Seeing the familiar figure, Duan Jue, who came here first, was scared, if it was said that the world wanted to kill them, Lu Zhi, who had been killed very miserably, was definitely a pioneer.
Faced with Lu Zhi's questioning, Duan Jue panicked and was speechless. In this stunned moment, the clever Empress Dowager He jumped out of the window and escaped, and was spared.
However, it is a pity that although Lu Zhi saved the Queen Mother by himself, he could not restore the shame of the Son of Heaven.
Under the coercion of Duan Qi and Zhang Rang, Liu Wei, the son of heaven, and Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, retreated to the North Palace.
When the doors of the two palaces were closed, the lieutenant who had to get rid ushered in a short rest.
It's a pity that Zhang Rang, who had just escaped from Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's pursuit, didn't know that at this moment, the ally in his heart had actually been dispatched. It's just that it's not the palace that's going to go, it's his home.
