Chapter 845: Chaos (5)
Many officials and officials admitted that they had been explicitly or implicitly told to turn a blind eye to what was happening in the city, but when they wanted to follow up, they could not tell who the master had made at that time.
Jian Shuo seemed to have dug up a treasure, and he refused to give up if he couldn't catch the real murderer, his Xiyuan New Army had not been formed for a long time, and he was even more rusty in terms of detectives, just blindly beating and scolding and intimidating. Some officials couldn't bear it, and began to slander their enemies and colleagues, so the scene got even more out of control, and the new army of Xiyuan rode out and arrested people everywhere in the city, making the entire Luoyang City more and more smoky.
After Cheng Yu and the others completed the task, they were secretly sent out of the palace by Zhao Zhong, and they had returned to the Qiu Mansion safely at this moment, and they also brought Zhao Zhong's words: "Chaos, go." ”
Cheng Yu was puzzled by these two words, in his opinion, since Qiuming gave up the opportunity to go to Liangzhou to make merit, he should take advantage of this chaos to take root in Luoyang, help the new emperor ascend the throne, and learn from the dragon's merits. Dian Wei participated in the whole process of moving the corpse and setting up the bureau, and he was very clear about how much trouble Qiu Ming had, although he didn't have any special feelings about the death of the Son of Heaven, but he also thought that Qiu Ming should leave Luoyang at this time to avoid the limelight.
While Cheng Yu and Dian Wei were arguing, Lai Ying'er had a headache at the swaddling Qiu He. Although there are many girls in Fangze Pavilion, they have no experience in giving birth, and even the cook was kicked out by her husband's family because she couldn't have children, where do you know how to take care of babies? Finally, a few people who had helped their parents bring their younger siblings made some rice soup to feed Qiuhe.
A newborn child, where can he get used to rice soup? Qiu He cried loudly, startling the birds on the tile to avoid one after another. These flocks of birds were originally driven here by the killing atmosphere of the city, but where did they dare to fly elsewhere, so they were tired of flying and could only hover over the house and fall, it was like a situation of a hundred birds towards the phoenix.
When Zhou Tai finally found a ewe and came back, he saw such a scene, he was immediately shocked and hurriedly carried the sheep in. It is also strange to say that the ewe, who has been struggling all the way, actually became extremely docile after seeing Qiu He, and motionless let Ying'er squeeze goat milk, and Qiu He finally stopped being bitter after drinking a small bowl of goat milk, and quietly fell asleep.
Zhou Tai has spent a long time, according to him, the doors are closed everywhere in the city, where can I find the nurse? It was this ewe, or he sneaked into the Honglu Temple and stole it from a Hu Ren house.
Tian Feng's brows furrowed: "Honglu Temple? Did those Hu people do anything unusual? ”
Zhou Taidao: "The black lights are blinding, and the outside is so chaotic, where do they dare to make any changes?" But I seem to have seen a lot of people gathered together to discuss things, and I don't know why. ”
At this time, Qiu Ming saw that Cheng Yu and Dian Wei couldn't convince anyone, and they were a little angry, and he interjected: "My father-in-law asked me to disturb the situation in Luoyang, do you have any good opinions?" ”
Tian Feng frowned and said: "Luoyang is chaotic enough now, if you want to disturb it again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to clean up." ”
Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "The chaos is only temporary, as long as the general's army returns to Beijing, who dares to make chaos again?" However, when we left the palace, we saw Jian Shuo rectifying the order, and with his ability, I was afraid that he would add to the chaos. It's better for us to watch the fire from afar, watch the situation develop, and then decide whether to make a move. ”
Dian Wei was about to refute when he heard this, Qiu Ming waved his hand and said: "What Zhongde said makes sense, the righteous father let us go, and we are not in a hurry in the next day or two, let's observe a period first." ”
The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and more and more people are going out. Although I knew that there was a big mess last night, I saw the piles of ashes and layers of dead bodies on the side of the road, which still made people tremble, and I could hardly even walk steadily. The streets were full of soldiers of the Xiyuan New Army, and as soon as they saw someone with suspicious appearances, they were about to be arrested and taken to the court prison, let alone walking and shivering, so I don't know how many people were unjustly arrested, and there was no way to appeal.
And as more and more people were arrested, Jian Shuo finally felt a little headache, he simply didn't have so many manpower to interrogate so many prisoners one by one. And he is not a fool after all, and he can see that some people are slandering, but everyone has an enemy, and Jian Shuo is naturally no exception. Cao Cao is not in Luoyang now, and his father Cao Song can stay here, so under Jian Shuo's instructions, Cao Song became the first Jiuqing-level minister to be sent to prison.
Cao Song was imprisoned, which was a strong stimulus for those old ministers, most of them rushed to the Deyang Hall in the middle of the night, frozen and hungry at the mercy of Jian Shuo. If Jian Shuo knew how to be a person and do things, everyone would be fine, but now that it has moved to Jiuqing's head, who knows if it will be his turn next? In a corner that Jian Shuo couldn't see, a makeshift alliance began to show its strength quickly.
Since the officials of the various ministries have not yet been released, no one dares to open all the gates of Luoyang casually, but such difficulties absolutely can't stop the people from coming and going, and soon there are many people who have been raised and rangers in the market who have crossed the city and sent letters to various places, and several major families in the city have also begun to unite, ready to put pressure on Jian Shuo.
Huang Fu Song's army just left the city, when camping, he saw Luoyang blazing into the sky, and the soldiers were frightened in their hearts, but Huang Fu Song only let people watch the camp at night, and those who made noise were immediately full of military sticks. Soon after dawn, several knights came to report, only saying that the Son of Heaven had died, Luoyang City was in chaos, and Huangfu Song was summoned to return to the army immediately to quell the chaos.
When Dong Zhuo heard the news, he immediately danced with his hands, eager to fly back to Luoyang to fix the sun and moon to protect the world, but Huangfu Song beheaded all these knights on the spot, and said to Dong Zhuo: "We are waiting for the order of Pingliangzhou, how can we return lightly without the will of the Son of Heaven?" These people disturb the hearts of our army, and we must get rid of them. ”
Dong Zhuo was shocked: "But according to what they said, the Son of Heaven has been assassinated, where can there be a will?" At this time, Li Ru gently tugged at the sleeve of his robe and shook his head to tell him not to make a sound.
Huangfu Song drew his sword in his hand: "How is the body of the Son of Heaven and the dragon, it is not something that these cloths can say, we are entrusted by the king, and we are loyal to the king, and the rebels in Liangzhou will not be returned lightly." Passing on my general's order, the army was immediately divided into two parts, and General Dong's headquarters only carried a little grain and grass to advance on light horseback, and must rush to Hangu Pass within one day, and to Chang'an City within three days; The rest of the troops marched with the Chinese army in formation, and marched to Hangu to divide their troops, and those who dared to talk about Luoyang in private were immediately killed. The generals agreed with a bang, and Dong Zhuo led his Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and took the lead in the west.
