Chapter 0569: The Princess's Wrath
In July of the fourth year of the first peace of the Han Dynasty (193 AD).
On the seventh day of the seventh month, the Son of Heaven held a banquet in the palace to celebrate the "Tanabata".
The Son of Heaven, Fu Guiren, Dong Guiren, Wan Nian Eldest Princess, Fu Wan, Yang'an Eldest Princess and Fu De's family, Dong Cheng's family got together and had a reunion dinner, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
When the wine was half-drunk, the Son of Heaven said with a red face: "Today, I have a happy event to announce. ”
Then he stood up and said excitedly, "The happy event I want to announce is that my sister is getting married. ”
There was silence in the room. Everyone looked at the eldest princess in unison.
The eldest princess frowned, although there was still a hint of a smile on her face, but there was anger in her eyes. She looked at the Son of Heaven intently, and the Son of Heaven looked at her with a smile, and said again word by word: "I have decided, I can't delay my sister's happiness, I plan to marry my sister to Wang Chen, the son of the Jinyang Wang family, the son of the Great Si Nong Wang Yun." ”
The room was breathlessly quiet.
The gaze of the eldest princess became more and more fierce, and the Son of Heaven did not show weakness, a pair of small eyes almost narrowed into a slit, and said resolutely: "Sister, I have already prepared a holy decree, and I will send it to the Wang family tomorrow." ”
The eldest princess slowly closed her eyes, her face turned red, and suddenly she snorted and said with a smile: "You all know? ”
No one in the room made a sound, and even the eldest princess of Yang'an lowered her head, avoiding the gaze of the eldest princess of ten thousand years.
"Except for you, they all know." The Son of Heaven smiled triumphantly, "This matchmaker, I think the three ministers of Da Sima, Da Situ, and Da Sikong will do it." What do you think, sister? ”
"Okay." The eldest princess smiled and said, "Sister listens to you." ”
………………
Late at night, the camp of Jicheng. Guan Yu, the general of Zhengdong, was awakened by the sound of hurried horses' hooves.
The curtain was lifted, and the eldest princess strode in with a long sword in her hand.
Guan Yu was taken aback, didn't wait to get dressed, turned over and fell to the ground, and said, "Your Highness, forgive the ministers for being rude......"
"When?" The eldest princess's face was like frost, and she asked in a cold voice.
Guan Yu replied in a daze: "Your Highness, it is about early morning at this moment. ”
The eldest princess asked, "How long will it take to ride from the iron horse in the assembly camp to Jicheng?" ”
Guan Yu replied, "One hour." ”
The eldest princess asked again, "How many iron horsemen are there in the camp?" ”
Guan Yu said: "The lord went north to the desert and took away the hussar guards, and there are no iron cavalry in the camp. ”
The eldest princess glared at Guan Yu and said, "What if I want an iron horse now?" ”
Guan Yu was shocked and didn't speak for a long time.
The eldest princess said sharply: "What did the hussar general say when he left? ”
"The minister resolutely obeys His Highness's orders and will never give up." Guan Yu said loudly without thinking.
The eldest princess asked again, "How many iron horsemen are there in the camp?" ”
Guan Yu said loudly: "The six thousand soldiers of the First Army of the First Cavalry Army can immediately mount their horses and follow the eldest princess to kill the enemy. ”
The eldest princess nodded and said with satisfaction: "Okay, take the army and follow me to Jicheng." ”
Guan Yu didn't move, and asked, "Your Highness, what happened?" Isn't there 3,000 southern troops in the city, and 8,000 county soldiers? ”
"I don't believe them." The eldest princess felt a pain in her heart, and her tears could no longer hold back her tears, "I don't believe them. ”
Guan Yu exclaimed loudly: "Your Highness, what happened?" Is 10,000 people enough? ”
"That's enough." The eldest princess choked in a low voice and said, "Arrest all the people from the Jinyang Wang family and the Qi County Wang family." ”
"The Wang family?" Guan Yu was confused for a while, "Wang Yun, Wang Rou, Wang Ze, Wang Chen, Wang Ling, Wang Chang's family?" ”
The Wang family is the gate lord of Northern Xinjiang, and many generals of the Northern Xinjiang Army are inextricably linked to the Wang family, which is not something that can be caught.
"Your Highness, what crime has the Wang family committed?" Guan Yu was very hesitant, if he didn't ask about this matter clearly, once something happened, Hebei would be in trouble.
"The Wang family proposed to His Majesty and asked me to marry Wang Chen." The eldest princess said angrily, "What crime did you say the Wang family had committed? ”
Guan Yu's soul flew out of the sky and exclaimed, "Your Majesty agreed?" ”
The eldest princess nodded and said, "The holy decree will be sent to the Wang family tomorrow morning." ”
"It's the other way around......" Guan Yu was so angry that he jumped up, rushed out of the tent in a few steps, and roared wildly, "Give me a drum ......"
………………
In the darkness of the night, there was a sudden low roar. The sound grew louder and louder, and the ground began to shake.
The guards on the west gate of Jicheng were frightened, and their eyes tried their best to look into the depths of the night.
Suddenly, a dazzling red star jumped out of the black curtain, and then, a red light rushed out of the dark night and lit up the sky.
"Quick, call the police, call the police......" Xicheng Junhou was shocked, "The iron cavalry is coming, ...... quickly"
The fierce and furious drums of war rose into the sky, and the patrol soldiers rushed back and forth, and thousands of soldiers swarmed out of the barracks on both sides of the city gate, and the fierce shouts were deafening.
"Ballista, push the ballista up......"
"Open the stone cannon, prepare to throw stones, ...... Hurry up ......"
In the new palace of Jicheng, three thousand southern troops roared out, protecting every palace and guarding every palace gate.
Hu Ben Zhonglang took Mu Shun and Yulin Zhonglang Guan Hai with their elites and rushed into the inner palace at the fastest speed.
Hu Ben's left servant shot Yang Mi who was in charge of the inner palace of the Su Guard today, and when he saw Mu Shun rushing over, he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "General Mu, what happened?" ”
"I don't know." Mu Shun said sharply, "Protect the Son of Heaven and don't allow anyone to enter or leave the forbidden center." ”
The Son of Heaven sat on the bed tightly with Fu Guiren in his arms, his face colorless.
The sound of war drums, the running of the guards, the clash of weapons, the hoarse shouts, all this was all too familiar to him.
He experienced this kind of scene twice in Luoyang and Chang'an, the first Luoyang mutiny, and the general He Jin and the traitor died. In the second Chang'an mutiny, Dong Zhuo died. This is the third time, and the place where the mutiny occurred was moved from the imperial palace in Luoyang and the Weiyang Palace in Chang'an to the new palace in Jicheng in northern Xinjiang. Who will die this time? What will be your fate?
"Your Majesty, is the hussar general back?" Fu Shou curled up in the arms of the Son of Heaven and asked in a trembling voice.
The Son of Heaven smiled bitterly: "I don't know, I don't know." ”
Fu Shou asked again, "Will we die?" ”
The Son of Heaven shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know." ”
………………
Xian Yufu, the captain of the city gate, and Li Le, the Sima of the city gate, rushed up to the west city tower out of breath.
The firelight illuminated the night, and an army of 10,000 iron cavalry was densely arrayed under the city, and the momentum was terrifying.
"What's going on? Did the 1st Cavalry Regiment want to rebel? General Guan Yu is crazy? Xian Yufu exclaimed in surprise.
"Something must have happened." Li Le wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in horror, "General Xianyu, go and invite Da Situ, Guanglu Xun Kou Zhun, Wei Wei Tian Feng, Si Li Captain Zhuge Xuan......"
Before he could finish his sentence, a soldier shouted, "Look, the First Cavalry Corps is here." ”
A small group of iron horsemen rushed out of the array and rushed towards the city gate.
"Lower the drawbridge. I'm going to ask, what the hell is going on? Xian Yufu turned around and rushed down the tower.
Li Le shook his head, smashed his fist on the city wall, and shouted: "Raise your arrow, prepare to shoot ......"
Xian Yufu beat the horse and rushed out of the city gate.
Yue Yun raised his arms at the same time, and the Iron Cavalry slowly stopped.
Xian Yufu didn't wait for the war horse to stop, and shouted loudly: "General Xiaoyue, what's going on?" What do you want to do? ”
"Xian Yufu, open the city gates, we will enter the city." Yue Yun raised his horsewhip and waved it, and smiled leisurely, "What are you nervous about?" Everyone is the Northern Xinjiang Army, will I still make my own rebellion? ”
"General Xiaoyue, can I not be nervous with your posture?" Xian Yufu pointed to the Iron Cavalry army opposite and said, "You want to scare me to death?" You can go into the city, and bring the holy decree. ”
Then he asked strangely, "What are you doing in the middle of the night?" Whose order? ”
"You kid is not a big official, but he is in charge of a lot of things." Yue Yun smiled, "You open the city gate, and then it's none of your business." ”
"Without the Divine Decree of the Son of Heaven, I cannot open the gates of the city." Xian Yufu flatly refused, "Although you are the son of General Yue Fei and the commander of the First Cavalry Army, this matter will not work." Don't say that you have so many troops with you, even if you go into the city alone. ”
Yue Yun glared at him fiercely, and said angrily: "If I tell you to open the city gate, you will open the city gate, where is there so much nonsense?" ”
"Without a holy decree, it just can't work." Xian Yufu shouted, "No one can come." ”
"Presumptuous...... "The eldest princess shouted angrily and pulled off her battle helmet. The cloud-like black hair suddenly fluttered down like a waterfall.
Yue Yun swept his horse to the side.
The jade face of the eldest princess of ten thousand years was threatening, and she looked at Xian Yufu angrily, and asked, "Is my order okay?" ”
Xian Yufu's eyes widened, he opened his mouth in disbelief, then rolled over and rolled under the horse, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "I don't know if it's Your Highness......"
The eldest princess asked displeasedly, "Do you still need a holy decree?" ”
Xian Yufu is stupid there, I don't know what to do. The eldest princess of ten thousand years came with the army late at night, what did she want to do? No matter what happens to Jicheng, it seems that there is no need to use the First Cavalry Legion, right?
When he was hesitating, Guan Yu appeared behind the eldest princess and quietly gestured to him.
Xian Yufu comprehended and said to the eldest princess: "The minister will open the city gate and welcome His Highness." ”
After speaking, Xian Yufu rushed away.
After a while, the fierce war drums suddenly stopped, and the city gates slowly opened.
The eldest princess turned her head to look at Guan Yu. Guan Yu nodded, pointed at Yue Yun and said, "Ying Xiang, you lead the army to wait in formation here." You are not allowed to enter the city without my orders. ”
Yue Yun bowed and agreed.
Guan Yu turned around again and said loudly: "The personal guards will follow me to escort the eldest princess into the city." ”
Guan Ping agreed, waved his big hand hard, and fifty iron rode a horse to the city gate, leading the way.
The eldest princess of ten thousand years looked up at the big silk fluttering high on the city tower, sighed softly, and said to Guan Yu: "General Guan, if I do this, will the hussar general blame me?" ”
Guan Yu smiled and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, whether it's the eldest brother or us, we live only for one purpose, that is, to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, so that the people of the Han Dynasty can live in peace and stability." ”
Guan Yu poked his chest with the horsewhip in his hand and said, "As long as we stick to our beliefs, we can do anything." ”
The eldest princess gritted her teeth, whipped it down, and said loudly, "Let's go, let's go into the city." (To be continued.) )
