Chapter 25: The emperor's "tour"
On the gorgeous chariot, the emperor wore a royal robe, with paintings of the sun, moon, stars, mountains, dragons, flowers, insects, algae, etc., twelve chapters.
His face was a little pale, but he looked relatively calm. When he met the cheering soldiers and civilians, he even waved.
The ministers, dressed in Five Seasons court uniforms, followed closely.
Because this is autumn, it looks spectacular with white flowers - according to the system, the five o'clock court clothes vary with the seasons, spring is cyan, summer is vermilion, Jixia (the third day of summer) (i.e. June) wears yellow robes, autumn wears white robes, and winter wears soap-colored court clothes.
Compared to the emperor, the faces of the officials were much uglier.
If enemy troops come, the emperor and empress may not die, not them.
The reason why everyone stayed in Luoyang was because of Wang Yan's thoughts, that is, he stayed in the court, fought for power, sought official positions for the family, and reaped benefits. In their true nature, they really don't want to see war - except for speculators.
Queen Yang Xianrong is dressed in dark green clothes, wearing twelve diamonds, a step wave, a big hand bun, and a ribbon. She has a beautiful appearance and unparalleled elegance.
Her expression was very calm, as if she was on a spring outing. But if you look carefully at the corner of her mouth, there seems to be a hint of sarcasm.
This woman seems to have become broken since she experienced life and death...
She can't stand the emperor's husband, she can't stand the governor Sima Yi who controls the government, and she can't stand the civil and military officials. Gongqing gentry.
In her eyes, these people themselves are a joke.
Wen cannot rule the country in peace, and force cannot quell the rebellion. He spends all day working like a puppet, speaking ridiculous words that he does not believe, and doing heinous things behind his back. What use do they have when men steal and women prostitute?
Especially Sima Yi is a shameless, incompetent and immoral person.
Yang Xianrong still remembers the arrows flying towards her outside the palace city. She has never been so close to death.
Sima Yi was also very hypocritical. On the surface, he was very respectful to the emperor and the queen, and no one could fault him. In fact, he had dismissed the palace guards long ago, and then let his troops take turns to guard the palace city. He also threatened the emperor at every turn to fulfill his desires.
But such a seemingly extremely powerful minister, when he met Sima Ying, who had more than 200,000 troops, he became coy and coquettish. All matters, big and small, were sent to Yecheng, and he did not dare to make decisions without authorization. To this day, when Sima Ying completely fell out with him, she dared to make up her mind to fight, she was just a coward.
Haha, why should someone like the Sima family ask her to open her legs?
She glanced around aimlessly, with a detached attitude, as if she were watching a large sitcom - or pantomime.
Well, there are a group of generals and soldiers kneeling outside Piyong Gate.
The leader is wearing a white robe, hehe, he is another useless scholar.
Behind him, there were two more people.
The one on the left is wearing a sleeve armor, his head is almost lowered into the mud, and he is trembling.
The one on the right is not very honest.
He looks very tall, wearing a bright red military uniform, with a bow tip and a ring-shaped sword on his waist. There is also a huge long sword or a long sword stuck behind his back?
He lowered his head slightly, but looked at the holy driver quietly from the corner of his eye, looking very presumptuous.
Yang Xianrong could even feel that this person's eyes stayed on him much longer than the emperor.
Oh, how brave! What a dirty thought!
But she was too lazy to care.
Ever since she grew up a little and her beauty appeared in front of the world, she has long been accustomed to the eyes of all kinds of men looking at her. There are so many disgusting things mixed in there, you can tell just by thinking about it with your toes.
She used to be disgusted.
Now, she knows very well that her appearance, figure and even identity are also a kind of capital, but no one can match her.
Not even the emperor can do it!
She glanced at her husband, who had bruises on his forehead, where she had hit him with a vase.
Sima Yong and Sima Ying asked Shangshu's right servant to shoot Yang Xuanzhi (the father of Yang Xianrong). He actually seriously discussed the feasibility with the courtiers.
What is the use of such a man?
Tai Yangshi, when did you get so stepped on?
The car drove by quickly.
Mi Huang waited for a while before slowly getting up.
Shao Xun, with quick eyes and quick hands, gave him a gentle hand, and Mi Huang gave him a satisfied look.
Yang Bao was dumbfounded.
Shao Thief is so good at martial arts, but he can still read people's words and have hundreds of tricks. Is he still a human being?
“Go back.” Mi Huang waved his hand and called everyone into the wall.
"I got news last night that Huangfu Shang has been defeated. Zhang Fang's army has an unimpeded path and can go straight to Luoyang. I'm waiting for the good times to come to an end, and I may go into battle at any time." Mi Huang said, "Be prepared. Let's do it."
"Guardian, there are still some pigs and sheep in the camp, why not kill them and feed the whole army to boost morale," Shao Xun suggested.
"This is a very good strategy, you can do it as you please." Mi Huang said directly in a bad mood. "No." Shao Xun responded.
"Supervisor, since the bandits have defeated Huangfu Shang, what is the purpose of today's patrol for the emperor? Could it be that he wants to patrol somewhere else?" Yang Bao asked.
"Haha." Mi Huang laughed loudly, pointed at Yang Bao with his finger, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You don't think Shao Langjun would say such things."
"The governor went on a tour in honor of the emperor. In my opinion, he was just practicing. He will go on an expedition in honor of the emperor in the future." Shao Xun said with a smile.
Mi Huang glanced at him approvingly, then looked at Yang Bao, and said earnestly: "Uncle Shao is younger than you, but he sees it very clearly. When he killed King Ji of Qi last year, The governor used the emperor as a shield. At that time, the emperor and the empress were frightened, and more than a dozen officials died. This time the army pressed on, he just used the same trick again, after all, there were only a few people. If you dare to risk the disapproval of the world and openly kill the emperor, there is an opportunity."
Yang Bao was stunned.
He didn't expect that Sima Yi's lower limit was so low. He dared to do such things. No wonder he could become the governor. He was really ruthless!
At the same time, he was a little jealous. Mi Huang, the owner of the building, valued Shao Xun and ignored him, which made him feel quite unhappy.
He thought so in his heart, but he didn't know how to hide it and showed it directly on his face.
Mi Huang saw it and didn't want to say anything, but he quickly thought that with Shao Xun's martial arts and knowledge, if he went to the battlefield, wouldn't Yang Bao be killed by him? Pity suddenly arose in his heart, and he turned to Yang Bao and said: "Uncle Yang, in the army, ability always speaks for itself. I don't want to care about what you think, but I have to remind you that Zhang Fang is not a good person. Although the Guanzhong army he brought were good people, but Zhang Fang indulged them when they were out on the battlefield. You must also know what kind of character they would become. Hongnong was already cannibalizing and killing prisoners. Zhang Fang was already cannibalizing people. To Luoyang, do you think he will let you go? Is it useful to kneel down and beg for mercy? We must unite sincerely and don't make mistakes."
Yang Bao's face turned pale and he hesitated to speak.
"Think about it carefully." Mi Huang snorted coldly, threw up his sleeves and walked away.
******
Starting in mid-September, the war accelerated suddenly.
On the 20th, after the Guanzhong soldiers wreaked havoc in Hongnong, they came closer and closer, and Luoyang was in turmoil.
On the 25th, in the dark night, several long dragons with torches were meandering.
The troops are not very organized and the noise is relatively loud.
The baggage vehicles left behind were filled with pots and jars, as well as large and small bags, bulging with no one knew what they were stuffed with.
The sergeants were in a high mood, walked briskly, and had smiles on their faces. They seemed to be victorious.
The sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded, rolling towards the west, and soon stopped at a grass pavilion.
There were more than ten people surrounding the pavilion, with bright armor and fierce faces.
Zhang Fang sat on the stone bench with great dignity, chewing "dried meat".
His evil reputation has spread throughout Hongnong, and is now known to the people of Luoyang. Every time I think about this, my heart is full of pride.
I told you nobles and nobles to look down on me!
Haha, I am coming with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to kill you. Are you afraid?
When he was stationed in Hongnong, he captured several Yang family members, the most lovely of whom were a pair of sisters-in-law.
The sister-in-law is charming and charming, and the sister-in-law is young and immature. They cook for him day and night, warm his bed, and serve him for ten days, all under the watchful eyes of their brother and father.
Before leaving, he made "rice" for the sisters-in-law, and the taste still reminds him of it.
The princes and nobles are all bullshit, just sheep with two legs!
Zhang Fang doubted himself a little. Why did the young man treat them with such respect and admiration?
They can actively sacrifice their wives and daughters in order to survive.
In order to survive, the lady has to serve carelessly, and is extremely coquettish. The image of the "goddess" has been ruined, okay?
The world is so good, haha, it suits me so well!
As the sound of horse hooves approached, the soldiers outside the pavilion drew their swords, grabbed their bows, and left in search of fame.
After a while, a horseman dismounted and bowed: "Captain, the vanguard has arrived at Qianjinyan, and there are no soldiers and horses under Sima Yi, the false captain."
"Okay, first of all. Qian Jinyu has taken over, cut off the canal." Zhang Fang slapped his thigh and ordered with a fierce look in his eyes.
"No." The knight took the order and left.
Zhang Fang shook off the meat, wiped his hands on his uniform, and said with a smile: "Sima Yi should be in a hurry to come back for reinforcements now, right? You look down on me and other Westerners, so let's let him go this time He took a good look and saw if any of the ministers in the court knew how to fight, haha."
The soldiers and generals also laughed happily.
Qianjinyan is a large water bank in the west of Luoyang City. There are many stone and brick water channels leading to the city. It is the main source of water for the inner city and the palace city. This time I'll cut it off for you to see how you drink water.
It must be said that although Zhang Fang is cruel, he still has a very clear idea of fighting and is not that reckless.
With superior strength, he is still cautious, which is much better than some members of aristocratic families who pretend to be brave.
"Have you had enough rest?" Zhang Fang stood up, looked at the dark sky, and said, "I have been traveling all night. I want to see Luoyang tomorrow morning."
The generals agreed with a bang, and their morale was high.
