1165. Chapter 1165 Dead Remonstrance


Chapter 1165: Dead Admonition

Guan Chiying's eyes dimmed slightly.

Three days ago, he finally returned to Luoyang City. Because he didn't bring much food, and Chen Cai was killed, their group was almost executed by Liang Shide; or because they escaped to Xiao Yuansui's military camp, they knew Some incidents in his military camp were reported as battle reports, and Liang Shide reluctantly spared the lives of this group of people.

After that, he immediately looked for an opportunity to return to the official family.

In the past few years, because of his surrender, the official family had long severed ties with him. It was the same this time. Even the gatekeepers did not allow him to step into the door. The critical moment was the jade plaque given to him by Shang Ruyi. It worked - in the end, Guan Ao finally met him, and although he was reluctant, he finally believed his words.

Then, Guan Ao also took him to meet several other old acquaintances in Luoyang City.

Like the officials, these people also refused to surrender to Liang Shide, just because they were all famous families in Dongdu. In order to stabilize people's hearts, Liang Shide could not easily attack them. He only sent people from time to time to persuade them to surrender, often They all go back in disgrace.

But this time, when he announced that he would go to the altar to offer sacrifices and proclaim himself king, the group of people finally "surrendered."

The reason for the surrender was that Guan Chiying told them that Princess Qin had promised that on the day Liang Shide went to the altar to offer sacrifices, King Qin would lead his troops to attack Luoyang and stop this farce.

But until now, they had not heard any noise outside the city gate, and the soldiers on the city tower had not issued any alarm to detect the enemy.

Did they make a mistake?

Or did Princess Qin break her promise?

Speaking of which, it does seem a bit unwise to pin such a big event on a woman, but Guan Chiying recalled that Shang Ruyi was still calm and composed even in the enemy camp. Her wisdom and acumen were by no means an ordinary woman - no , even men can't compare, she agreed, she should be able to do it.

However, King Qin Yuwenye has to face Xiao Yuansui's army of 100,000 people. Can he win?

Seeing that Guan Chiying's eyes became tangled and complicated, Guan Ao's eyes also deepened - although these people were not tortured in Luoyang City, Liang Shide was concerned about the reputation of these people and did not even imprison them. , but they have been under house arrest for these years, unable to even step out of Luoyang. Ever since they learned that Yu Wenyuan was proclaimed emperor in Chang'an, they have not wanted to join him every day. Now, this seems to be their only hope.

Guan Chiying thought for a long time and finally said: "Brother, I have been back to Luoyang for a few days. I really don't know anything about what happened outside."

"..."

Guan Ao frowned.

Guan Chiying continued: "But, I believe Princess Qin. Since she promised and gave me all the jade tokens, they will definitely come."

"..."

"I also believe in His Highness King Qin, he will definitely defeat Xiao Yuansui!"

"..."

Guan Ao didn't say anything else, but looked at him with burning eyes for a long time, and finally said in a deep voice: "I hope you and Princess Qin will not live up to that jade plaque..."

"..."

Guan Chiying didn't speak, but his mood became a little heavier.

He raised his head and looked forward, only to see Wei Yu approaching the golden car, muttering something unknown, and looking over at them while talking, his snake-like eyes made people very uncomfortable. .

Seeing him like this, Guan Chiying frowned - what kind of slander does this traitor want to make?

After a while, I saw a group of guards running back along the long street.

Guan Chiying frowned and watched as several guard commanders led their people to the back and gave orders to the alleys on both sides of the long street. The guards immediately rushed in and started smashing and kicking the doors of people they found. Not only ordinary houses, but also restaurants and inns were spared. The common people were all frightened and walked out, each one terrified and at a loss.

Seeing this situation, Guan Chiying couldn't help but stepped forward: "What are you doing?"

A sharp voice sounded from behind: "Sir, this has nothing to do with you."

Guan Chiying and others immediately turned around, and sure enough they saw Wei Yu slowly walking over with the fly whisk in his hand. Guan Ao also said with a stern face: "Didn't I just tell King Xia that calling the people out will delay the good time?" ——”

Wei Yu sneered and said: "The King of Xia has ordered all these people to come out. Although they cannot miss the auspicious time, after King Xia ascends the throne, people will always come to pay homage. Otherwise, they still don't know who is theirs." Where is the master?”

Guan Chiying frowned, and Guan Ao also let out a deep breath.

While Wei Yu continued to ask the commanders to lead their men to break down the door and drag the frightened people out of their homes, he sneered: "Sir, you'd better follow us out quickly. If you all miss the right time, That’s not going to be easy.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a shout sounded from the front——

"Open the city gate!" Several soldiers guarding the city immediately stepped forward and were about to open the city gate. Suddenly, a man ran out from the side and shouted that it could not be opened. He stopped at the city gate and knelt down. Kowtow repeatedly.

"Gong Liang, Mr. Liang can't open the city gate!"

The team was confused for a moment. Liang Shide on the golden car also frowned, but did not speak. On the contrary, Wei Yu, who was leading people to smash the door and arrest people, immediately ran up after hearing the sound, took a closer look, and said coldly: " Liu——Mr. Liu, what are you doing?”

The person kneeling in front of the city gate was none other than another confidant of Liang Shide, named Liu Mingfuyan. He was originally a teacher. He was arrested by the government many years ago for writing a so-called anti-poetry and later lived in the world. Seeking self-protection, he joined Liang Shide, who had openly rebelled against the imperial court at that time. He became an aide beside him and gave him advice for many years. It was he who gave him advice when Chu Yang went south to Jiangdu to occupy Luoyang. After Liang Shide occupied Luoyang, Liu Fuyan followed him until Liang Shide decided to go to the altar to offer sacrifices and establish himself as king.

When he raised this matter, Liu Fuyan was the first to express his opposition. Firstly, he believed that Liang Shide had no plans for the country and had no merit for the people, so he was not qualified to be a king here. Secondly, it was also because the war in Luoyang had not yet begun. Peace, surrounded by foreign enemies, becoming a king at this time is just a temporary pleasure.

However, Liang Shide could no longer listen to words other than congratulations at this time, and even ordered Liu Fuyan to be imprisoned.

Unexpectedly, at this time, he still ran out and came to stop it.

As soon as he saw him, Liang Shide's good mood immediately became like the sun being obscured by dark clouds, and his whole face became gloomy. Seeing his expression, Wei Yu pointed directly at the guards around him and cursed: "Don't drag this sinner down yet!"

After hearing this, another group of guards immediately came forward to pull Liu Fuyan away.

Liu Fuyan was just a weak scholar, so naturally he couldn't fight against these powerful and powerful warriors. He was torn away after a while, but he still struggled and kept shouting at the people on the golden carriage: "Gong Liang, no! The city is still starving. "Ping, there are enemies outside the city. If you open the city gate like this, you are opening the door to the thieves. God will not bless you!"

Liang Shide's face turned livid and he said solemnly: "Shut his mouth!"

When Wei Yu heard this, he didn't dare to be negligent. He immediately went down to give orders. After a while, the guards dragged Liu Fuyan to a corner of the city wall and stuffed some earth and stones into his mouth, which made him whimper and struggle to speak. , and beat him erratically until he lay on the ground unable to get up, then left him and came back.

Liang Shide said coldly: "Anyone who dares to talk nonsense again will be killed without mercy!"

Wei Yu immediately pointed at everyone: "Did you all hear it?"

Among them, everyone had been imprisoned under Liu Fuyan for a long time. Some other officials had spoken to stop them but kept their mouths shut after being imprisoned. Now whoever is willing to stand in this guard of honor who dares to "talk nonsense" all nodded in approval. yes.

Only Guan Ao looked at Liu Fuyan, who was beaten to death by several guards and lying on the ground almost unable to move, shook his head and sighed deeply.

At this time, seeing that the time had come, Wei Yu shouted again: "Open the city gate!"

Following his sharp voice, a hoarse neighing sound echoed through the long street.

Everyone immediately raised their heads and saw a gust of wind blowing in front of them, enveloping the cold water vapor and sand outside the city. The blow made everyone squint their eyes slightly. At the same time, the sunlight also filtered through the open door and shone on the long street. A ray of light was sown, and then as the city gate opened, the light spread wider and wider like a fan, eventually illuminating everyone on the long street.

Go up to the east gate and it’s completely open!

With an order, the golden chariot in front began to drive slowly towards the outside of the city gate, followed closely by the escort team around Liang Shide, and after the escort team, they were a group of civil and military ministers.

After a while, the long queue passed the tall upper east gate.

There are three gates in the east of Luoyang City. Luoshui passes through the city from the east. The upper east gate is the northernmost one and the only east gate located on the north bank of Luoshui. As soon as they left the city, everyone immediately felt that the golden sun was shining unscrupulously on the earth in front of them. However, these days, everyone had hardly been able to leave the city, and it had been too long since they had seen the world outside the city walls.

Now that he suddenly came out, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

But it’s not all about fun.

They have not forgotten that until now, Luoyang City is still surrounded. Although they did not see any soldiers and horses around them at the moment, and the soldiers on the city tower did not issue any warning, it was impossible for Yu Wencheng to be unaware of the actions of such a large group of people. Once the spies he sent discovered that there were so many people leaving the city, they would only I am afraid that I will immediately lead my troops to attack.

Until then, we don’t know what the situation will be.

Just thinking about this made everyone a little nervous, but Liang Shide, who was sitting on the golden car, became even more proud, especially when the sun shone on the golden car, making him feel like he was sitting on a golden mountain. He has never been a person who is greedy for money and power, but in the past few years, he seems to be unable to step down, let alone give up the feeling of being in a high position and commanding the world.

And in front of him, that high raised earth platform was his final step towards the highest peak of power!

Liang Shide was so excited that he kept gasping and couldn't help but exert strength with both hands holding the armrests of the chair.

Just as his team slowly passed through the city gate and walked out of the city, suddenly, a black shadow suddenly fell from the city tower. Before Liang Shide had time to see it clearly, he only heard a "pop" and a splash in front of his eyes. There was a bloody flower.

He widened his eyes and looked at the person who landed in front of the golden car.

It was Liu Fuyan who climbed onto the tower at some point and jumped down from it!
