Chapter 849: Ongoing Chaos
Gongsun Du thought for a while: "Is it too Shici?" It seems that there is such a person. I heard that he specialized in doing some black and black things between the white mountains and black waters, which angered several big horse thieves, as if they wanted to join forces to hunt him down. But since there is Brother Qiu's words, my Gongsun Du will definitely do his best to protect him, that's it. ”
Liaodong is bitterly cold, Gongsun Du's business is so big, to say that it has nothing to do with horse thieves, Tyumen does not believe it. Qiu Ming smiled slightly, and didn't want to explain that this was actually to protect those poor horse thieves, but he mentioned the matter again: "Brother Yuan, who came to my mansion during the day, what does Brother Gongsun think?" ”
Gongsun Du didn't know why Qiu Ming had this question, but the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family were famous all over the world, so he naturally wouldn't say the wrong thing: "The two Yuan sons are fierce and smart, and they are really terrifying." ”
Qiu Ming laughed: "Since this is the case, I will ask for personal favors on behalf of the Yuan brothers, if they are exiled in Liaodong in the future, I hope that Brother Gongsun will show mercy and spare their brothers' lives." ”
Gongsun Du was taken aback: "Brother Qiu laughed, what a behemoth the Yuan family is, how could they let their parents and children live in Liaodong?" And how did it end up in my hands? ”
Qiu Ming smiled and said: "The world is unpredictable, who knows if such a thing will happen, if there is such a thing, what will Brother Gongsun say?" ”
Gongsun Du didn't look like a joke when he saw Qiu Ming, so he had to nod his head in agreement, and Qiu Ming asked him to set up a family motto, so that his children and grandchildren would let go of the Yuan family brothers once, Gongsun Du was full of doubts, and had to agree one by one.
After Gongsun Du left, Lai Ying'er wrinkled her nose and said, "I know that pretending to be a ghost, I think he is scared by you." ”
Qiu Ming thought that the old Yuan family was quite good to him, especially Yuan Shao took care of him in every way, and even Yan Liangwen Chou had lent it out several times, and now he helped his son ask for his life from the Gongsun family once, which can be regarded as a reward, I hope Yuan Shao will not be desperate again.
Lai Ying'er saw that Qiu Ming ignored her, and her nose wrinkled even more: "Weird, hum, there must be weird." ”
Tyumen saw that her nose was cocked high, indescribably playful and cute, and couldn't help but want to pinch it. But seeing Zhang Feiyuan next to him, his eyes widened, and he seemed to be about to swallow himself alive, so he had to retract his hand again, touched his nose and said with a bitter smile: "You see that Gongsun Du has also returned to Liaodong, where are you going?" If it's not too far, I can give you a ride. ”
Lai Ying'er stretched: "Don't be so troublesome, I'm just on the same road as you, and I'm going to Dengzhou." ”
Qiu Ming's face changed: "You stayed well in Luoyang, what are you going to do in Dengzhou?" ”
Lai Ying'er glanced at him: "Luoyang is like this, you still say it's good, do you want me to wait for death?" Don't worry, I won't bother you when I go to Dengzhou, don't forget that there is a cute little handyman in Fangze Pavilion who is also from Dengzhou, I will go to him, and he will never turn me away. ”
Qiu Ming tilted his head and looked at Zhang Fei, but he couldn't see anything cute about this guy. Zhang Fei also stared at Qiuming, although he became a miscellaneous servant in someone's mouth, but Zhang Fei was not a little angry, if he brought Qiuming back to Dengzhou like this, maybe others would say that he was wise and brave and planned to capture the thief chieftain, and when the three brothers went together, they would definitely be able to snatch all the money and grain land of Qiuming.
From Luoyang through Ruzhou, through Wancheng, and finally to Dengzhou, it takes four or five days. In the past four or five days, Qiu Ming has continuously received news from the secret agents of the Dragon Group, and he can also know the situation in Luoyang well.
Since the promulgation of the order to kill Hu, there is not one Hu in the city, and those who survived were so frightened that they no longer dared to have different intentions. However, Qiu Ming estimated Jian Shuo's reaction, estimated the development of things, but could not estimate the hearts of the people, these originally tame Luoyang people after experiencing several killings, especially after staining the blood of the Hu people with their own hands, the tyrannical side of their hearts was greatly magnified, and began to become less obedient, in their words, the fate of themselves and their families must be in their own hands to be at ease.
So, on a dark and windy night, these people opened the Luoyang arsenal and looted the weapons and materials inside, so they turned into new mobs, and they were armed to the teeth. Although they are mainly for the purpose of self-preservation, they also frighten those big families and hardly dare to take a step out of the door.
Jian Shuo was also shocked, and sent his subordinates to suppress the civil unrest and collect weapons, but they were quickly driven back, and the weapons they took out were also confiscated by the mob. Fortunately, at this time, He Miao's troops also rushed to Luoyang, this is a real army that has been killed, and it is led by a fierce general like Yue Xi, not those new troops and old soldiers. He Miao only hesitated for a moment, then ordered Yue Xi to let go and kill, so as to restore peace to Luoyang City as soon as possible.
So Yue Xi Wu Kuang each led an army to choose one door, and started to kill from the city gate, until outside the palace gate, and then from the palace to other city gates. Seeing that they were so ruthless, the armed forces of the major families that had been dormant also came out to help, and they really killed people with a lot of grief.
Jian Shuo saw that He Miao had already controlled the situation, so he announced that the city gate would be opened and normal order would be restored. However, after these killings in a row, the poor people in Luoyang City can be said to have stopped their souls with filial piety, and many households have died with their entire families, and no one has even collected the corpses. In order to prevent a major plague, Luoyang ordered Zhou Yi to recruit volunteers to remove the corpses, and it took three days and two nights to clean up the filth in the city.
In these three days, Jian Shuo and He Miao quickly formed a political alliance to jointly support the prince Liu Xie to ascend the throne. Although the Empress Dowager Dong was still sad, she still expressed strong support for their decision, in order to avoid a long night's dream, the Empress Dowager Dong immediately made a decision, and immediately selected an auspicious day for the funeral of Liu Hong, the son of heaven, and announced the accession of the new son of heaven on the same day.
Qiu Ming pursed her lips, this old woman knew that when He Jin returned to Beijing, the matter of Lichu would be completely reversed, but she still had to make some auspicious day and auspicious time to announce to the world, did she not know if she wanted to rush back like a fat. However, this He Miao is also very strange, obviously he is Queen He's half-brother, but he is demolished everywhere, and he doesn't even support his nephew, and I don't know what he thinks.
Leaving Luoyang behind, Qiu Ming cares about Chang'an again. The Liangzhou rebels besieged Chang'an for more than a month, and both sides were already exhausted, just to see who couldn't survive first. Under such circumstances, Han Sui Ma Teng paid great attention to collecting intelligence from Luoyang and was concerned about when the imperial court reinforcements would be sent.
Although they had received the news that Huangfu Song had led the army to set off, there was a news that the Son of Heaven had died in Luoyang City, and both of them were overjoyed, thinking that in such a situation, Huangfu Song had to go back to the division to save Luoyang, so that the Liangzhou army would attack for a few more days, and maybe they would be able to take Chang'an. Unexpectedly, on the night they received the news from Luoyang, Dong Zhuo arrived.
