Chapter 1924: In the whirlpool, act on behalf of heaven
On the Weishui River, a small boat was moored on the shore. It swayed slightly with the current, and in the dark boat canopy, Liu Zhen and Ying Jue sat in the boat, watching and listening to the fire in Chang''an through the boat canopy, and the noise. sky.
Before there was a curfew and before any commotion started, Liu Zhen and Ying Jue had already left Chang''an City and arrived here. After all, a gentleman would not stand behind a dangerous wall. Since they knew that Chang''an would be in chaos, how could they possibly do it? Stay where you are?
"It''s a pity that there is a table of good food in Zuixianlou..." Liu Zhen casually placed a piece of food on the table in the cabin, then raised it to his nose, and then he saw what it was clearly by the starlight and fire, and threw it into his mouth. .
There were not many dishes on the table, including a river fish, a plate of boiled eggs, and a plate of pickled vegetables.
"Since the table was overturned, it was natural that the chickens and dogs would be rewarded..." Ying Jue laughed and seemed to have picked up a piece of pickled vegetables, chewing them squeakingly.
Liu Zhen also laughed, suppressing his voice, "It''s a pity that brother Yuan Yu, he must not know the secret, and he is standing in the street without a trace... Haha..."
『It’s a pity that Cai Zhonglang lived a loyal and righteous life, but he was awarded the title of Cao Fei and caused trouble to the world! Ying Jian said, "Since Brother Ruan is already at the table, how can he feel free and easy?" 』
Exactly. Although Yuan Yu said he had no intention of becoming an official, since he was from the same sect, how could he ignore it? ” Liu Zhen’s smile gradually turned cold, “I want to gain fame and gain at the same time, so I deserve to suffer this disaster!” 』
Yes! Ying Jian raised the wine cup and the two of them drank it all in one gulp.
?Most people will have some grudges about betraying their friends, but as long as they find a suitable excuse for themselves, they will naturally let it go. It was the friend who brought the blame on himself and deserved it. Then if he betrayed his friend, he would naturally act on behalf of heaven and destroy his relatives in a righteous way.
After drinking a few more glasses, she felt the burning sensation of the wine offset the coldness of her hands and feet. Her heart was trembling, and the pride in her blood seemed to surge up again. Ying Jue stood up and cupped her hands, "Goodbye, little brother!" The mountains are high and the rivers are far away, but I hope we can meet again someday! 』
Liu Zhen held hands and walked to the shore. He said goodbye reluctantly, "My dear brother, I will go first, and my brother will come later." If it can lead to further chaos in Xu County, Cao Fei and the two of them attack, and both sides will eventually suffer losses. Your Majesty will have a gap to develop your grand plans! Zhongxuan''s loyal soul is under the Nine Springs, so he should smile and close his eyes! 』
『Reciting Haoran’s book has its own heroic meaning! Brother Liu needs to be more careful when cleaning up his affairs! Farewell, little brother! Ying Jun got on his horse, and then headed east with three or four guards.
?The sound of horse hooves spread far in the wilderness.
??The cold wind at night in late autumn made Ying Jue''s exposed cheeks and neck feel a slight pain, but it could not extinguish the blazing fire in her heart. The Han Dynasty has been a country for four hundred years, and there are so many heroes and loyal people. How can they allow the two thieves Cao Fei to divide the east and the west and pretend to be emperor? !
Let these greedy people learn a lesson and let them know that there are still heroes in this world! As Ying Jun thought about it, he felt even more proud.
The sound of horse hooves.
Kick, tap, tap.
Suddenly there was a bang, and two or three fires lit up in the road. Several shadowy figures in armor shouted loudly behind the fire: "Stay here for those who are coming!" 』
…ヽ(`Д)…
The Mansion of the Hussars General of the Han Dynasty.
Xun You stood behind Fei Qian, raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Fei Qian, who was shining under the firelight in the city.
Xun You was born into a noble family. His father, Xun Yi, worked in Renzhou.
Xun You lost his parents when he was young. His grandfather Xun Tan was the governor of Guangling. When Xun You was thirteen years old, his grandfather Xun Tan passed away. An official under Xun Tan named Zhang Quan took the initiative and asked to guard Xun Tan''s tomb. Xun You said to his uncle Xun Qu, "The look on this man''s face is abnormal. I guess he has done something cunning!" Xun Qu took the opportunity to interrogate him while he was sleeping at night. As expected, Zhang Quan was on the run because he had killed someone. , wanting to hide himself by guarding the tomb. From then on, people treated Xun You differently.
But Xun You knew that his ability was not innate, but had to be learned after losing his parents... A child without his parents is like a bereaved dog, trying not to become the meat of others. , it is natural for you to know how to watch your words, be cautious, and know which baits are poisonous. If you eat them stupidly, you may die long ago without knowing where you are!
The first master Xun You followed was General He Jin. Later came the emperors Liu Xie, Cao Cao, and now Fei Qian.
He Jin will not talk about it. At that time, because He Jin was recruiting nobles from all over the world, the Xun family of Yingchuan was naturally among them. However, he felt that He Jin had some problems, but it was difficult to say that he would fall out, so he sent someone like Xun You. Taking a side branch is more or less an explanation.
?Later He Jin died and Dong Zhuo came. Xun You felt that Dong Zhuo was unreliable, even worse than He Jin, so he took the initiative to lean on Liu Xie, who was still young at the time, and also participated in the plot to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but the matter was exposed and he was arrested and imprisoned. Different from the panic of others, Xun You was eating and sleeping in prison, as if he had no worries and no guilt in his heart. This made Dong Zhuo wonder if he had arrested the wrong person...
?Later Dong Zhuo died, Xun You naturally became a hero and was promoted. However, Xun You felt that Wang Yun exaggerated and made subtle remonstrances. Unfortunately, the emperor did not listen at the time, or did not understand what he heard.
Then naturally I met Fei Qian...
?At that time, Xun You felt that Fei Qian seemed to have an indescribable temperament, which was three points more wise than calm, and three points more cunning than open-minded. Anyway, it was very complicated.
After Wang Yun, the Zhong family deliberately squeezed out Fei Qian, but Fei Qian left without arguing at all, which surprised many people, and even the emperor was surprised. Only then did he have the Zhongxing Sword, which can be regarded as a good friendship. edge…
Or bad luck.
?Who knows?
This time, it is just like what happened in Hongdu...
?At that time, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty placed all his treasures on the eunuchs, and then the eunuchs became corrupt faster and more ruthlessly than anyone else, because eunuchs never had a long future, so they could only live in the present. Therefore, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty founded the Hongdu Academy in an attempt to poach some people from the corner of the gentry. However, these prefects, governors, and even ministers and ministers, who had high hopes, all lost their lives amidst the surging opposition. I couldn''t even fart, so I immediately lay down and exposed my belly.
?As a result, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was disappointed and finally gave up on himself.
Xun You couldn''t help but compare Cao Cao and Fei Qian with each other in his mind.
If Cao Cao encountered the current situation... Well, Cao Cao would not let this happen. Cao Cao would take the first step and nip the whole thing in the cradle. He would kill the main characters directly and kill the three clans with thunderous means. To shock others...
This time Fei Qian seemed to be just watching and not doing anything, just letting the situation gradually ferment...
What is the reason? Is Fei Qian just like Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, waiting for someone to step forward? Will Feiqian be disappointed then? What will happen next?
?While Xun You was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Fei Qian whisper: "The fire has reached Xishifang..."
Xun You raised his head, seeing fire rising in the distance and a roaring sound. "That...that seems to be Zuixian Tower..."
Fei Qian nodded and sighed slightly, "What a pity... Gongda, remember this scene... It took four months and fifteen days to build the Zuixian Tower, but it only took one night to burn it down..."
Humans have a very strange characteristic, that is, when they see beautiful things, they will sigh. While sighing, many people choose to destroy them, just like dogs must urinate when they go to a place. It seems that only Only after destroying it can you prove that you are here. That’s why every brick on the Great Wall has a name engraved on it, so I feel happy when I break a stone that is 60 million years old, so even the statues that I know are from the Tang and Song Dynasties are covered in pulp when I touch them, so I kick them. The cactus that has been growing for more than ten years is enjoying itself...
Some people say it’s a matter of quality, which is right or wrong, because more of it is actually desire.
Human beings have an innate desire to self-destruct and destroy everything. In fact, there is an answer to whether the thing is right or wrong, but it is not your own anyway. Others have done it anyway...
Xun You asked cautiously: "My Lord, do you want to give an order now..."
Fei Qian shook his head, his face bright or dark in the firelight, "If you want to sink, let it sink!" Xun You''s heart seemed to skip a beat or two, "My lord, this is...there are gangsters and students here..."
Fei Qian laughed twice and said, "If you pick up the sword, you become a bandit, but if you throw it away, you become a student?" I have been studying hard for more than ten years, but I still don’t know what is right or wrong, I don’t know what to do, and I act carelessly? What''s the use of keeping people like this? 』
Xun You''s face was a little pale in the **** firelight. He understood that Fei Qian had murderous intentions. Although Fei Qian and Cao Cao were different in their own ways, they had at least one thing in common. The emperor laid down millions of corpses in anger, and powerful ministers like Fei Qian and Cao Cao also shed rivers of blood and heads in anger...
…(〃> dishes<)…
In the Wei Mansion, Wei Duan was like an ant on a hot pot, "Is there any news about the birth?" 』
As a local snake in Chang''an, how could he be completely unaware of the changes in the situation in Chang''an? However, Wei Duan felt that this kind of matter had nothing to do with him, and there was no need to report it. Besides, even if he reported it, he might not be accused of being an accomplice...
No one else knows, why do you know so well? As an opposition party, it’s natural to just open your mouth and spray. It has nothing to do with you anyway. You can’t say that if you spray well, you can directly take up the post with honor. But since you are already a member of the Senate, continuing to spray this and that is not the same. Are you seeking death yourself?
Being like the light and the dust is the kingly way!
Since no one knows it, or if they know it, they don’t say it, why should I come out? Maybe by then the yellow mud will fall into the crotch, and it will be useless to explain it. If you insist on talking about it, it is the fault of poor inspection! Anyway, there is no way we can go together with our Senate Law Academy!
?Therefore, it is better to do less than to do more, and turn a blind eye. Anyway, if you don''t participate, it has nothing to do with you. In order to prevent his naughty child from accidentally getting into trouble, Wei Duan naturally did not mention this matter to his children. However, he never expected that when the city was bustling with noise tonight, Wei Duan at home did not come home!
The servants said that Wei Dan told us that there was a banquet today, but the city was in chaos at the moment, and the banquet was a waste! I sent people to search for him, but I ran into a crazy crowd of people and almost didn''t make it back! But in this case, I don’t know what happened to Wei Dan. The streets are full of guys who are looking for opportunities to rush into the mansion and plunder money. Wei’s mansion is so big, it is natural that people will target it early. If it weren’t for the guards in the mansion on the wall, He shot and killed two or three guys who came to break down the door and climb over the wall. Maybe they would have been cheered by the crowd long ago!
The guards of various surrounding mansions were also armed with bows and guns, either on the roof or on the wall, to intimidate these guys who were clamoring for justice, but their subordinates were not so fair. It was okay to protect themselves, but to say If you can go out to quell the chaos and search for people, then it will be more than you can do.
『Zui Xian Tower! Zuixianlou is in trouble! ” Suddenly someone shouted.
?Zui Xian Building is a brick and wood structure, half brick and half wood, and it is built with a high ceiling. Once a fire breaks out, it will definitely stand out.
Wei Duan was immediately shocked. He grabbed the housekeeper beside him and asked, "Did Dan''er say he went to Zuixian Tower?" hold head high? ! 』
??The housekeeper said calmly: "Young Master didn''t say anything, maybe he didn''t go to Zuixian Tower..."
『Damn it! Damn it! Wei Duan suddenly felt regretful. If he had known that his son would be implicated, he would have reported this matter long ago!
, please don’t let anything happen to you...』
Wishes are always good, just like there are people who want to get something for nothing every day, a pie from the sky, or a system, but in fact, what falls from the sky is either a hammer, or a stone, or even a crab, but Absolutely nothing like what I originally hoped for...
Time moves forward a little.
At the beginning, the original thing seemed to be for "justice", but then it gradually became too lazy to shout and turned into "This is the car of a corrupt official" and "The car of a corrupt official over there". Home!
Shops were smashed open and people rushed in. Obviously this is just a shop, nothing like a mansion, but some people can''t see it, no one can see it, just like they can''t see the difference between kimono and Hanfu, even if they know something is wrong, they are still pretending to be confused. , nothing can be seen.
『They are all corrupt things! We do justice for heaven! 』
『We are a serious merchant...』
‘Let’s go! How could a serious merchant have so many extravagant and valuable things! It’s clearly a collusion between government and business! 』
‘How can this be extravagant and expensive? This is just a piece of fine flax! 』
『This…this must be a cover-up! Intention to cover people''s eyes! Let us not be deceived by this shameless person! There are also valuable things! Search, you will definitely be able to find it! 』
Later, they didn''t even bother to shout out their names. When they heard the word "grab", countless arms waved to grab it. When they heard "smash", countless arms smashed down. These people went from one neighborhood to another, There was only a mess behind him. Seeing that no one came to intercept him, he became more and more courageous. Then he naturally focused on the market with the most concentrated wealth and goods in Chang''an. Like locusts, he was swept away. Attracted by the splendor of gold and silver wealth.
Ruan Yu stood on the cross street, surrounded by noisy shouts and laughter. From time to time, people ran over and over, and some coins even accidentally fell out of their arms. However, these people had no intention of picking them up and just ran away like that. .
Even though Ruan Yu was very neurotic, obsessed with music theory, and ignorant of world affairs, he still felt that something was wrong. After a moment of confusion, he said: "How could this be?" No...don''t you want to seek justice? 』
Brother Ruan is going to seek justice for us! ” Someone behind him raised his arms and shouted, “Come here, everyone!” come over! 』
?Pairs of red or black eyes came closer to Ruan Yu, "Brother Ruan, Mr. Ruan, where do you want to go?" ah? Where to go? ! 』
Where to go? 』
Where is Mr. Ruan going? 』
?Let all this end soon! Ruan Yu lamented in his heart, and then said: "Didn''t you say there are people who cheat?" Why don''t you go find those responsible now, but are here robbing the streets? Injury to innocent people? 』
Innocent? Ha ha. How could there be innocent people? Mr. Ruan is so kind-hearted! Look at this vehicle. Could it be said that it has never picked up or dropped off corrupt officials? Isn''t it wrong to burn this filthy thing? 』
"that is! ” The torch responded.
Look at this shop, is it true that no bribes were paid? How could it be so big without paying bribes? 』
That makes sense! ” The fine silk in her arms screamed.
‘Those who try to stop us are all corrupt minions! How can we, who are upright and upright, be afraid of such villains! These minions, who do not understand the truth, violate justice, do not turn from darkness to light, follow us to bring order out of chaos and eliminate corruption, but they come to obstruct us. If we do not eliminate them, won''t we suffer the consequences instead? ! 』
That’s right! ” The blood-stained knife shouted with joy.
Ruan Yu still felt that something was wrong, but a group of people were saying that it was right, that this made sense, and that this was correct. When Ruan Yu was in a daze, could it be that he had thought wrong?
Master Ruan is looking for a fraudster! Where are the fraudsters located? ” someone shouted.
At Zuixian Tower! Zuixianlou! ” Another voice echoed.
There seemed to be countless voices saying, "Go to Zuixian Tower!" Let’s go together! Let’s go together! 』
Ruan Yu was a little confused. Shouldn''t he go to the person involved? Shouldn''t he go to the government to complain? Then some confused thoughts arose. The government was not doing anything. What''s the use?
In confusion, Ruan Yu came to Zuixian Tower unknowingly. He looked at the flow of people in confusion like a flood, and jumped on him. Then some people in Zuixian Tower were beaten out, and some ran away. , some were caught, and then they were punched and kicked...
『Destroy them! Let them fake it! Let them cheat! 』
It seemed that they were so excited that they shouted loudly, and then someone dragged the captured people into the street, and then used rocks or hammers to break their fingers and palms. Each time they hit them, there was a burst of pain. Cheers, every time flesh and blood fly, there is a burst of applause...
It’s so satisfying! ” A group of people gathered around, shouting and laughing, “The way of heaven is unfair, so we will do it for the way of heaven!” 』
