Chapter Eighteen(2/3)

"I don't blame the Lieutenant." Liu Xie finally stepped down from Yubi, and then leaned over to help him. "In this situation, what can the Lieutenant do? This is why I must leave...here

There really is no place for the Han Dynasty to gain a foothold... I only have one question today, can the Taiwei follow me eastward?"

"I...can't accept it!" Liu Yu knelt on the ground and refused with almost the greatest pressure he had ever experienced in his life.

It is really the greatest pressure in my life, because this time is completely worse than the one I experienced in Youzhou before. At that time, everything could be attributed to Gongsun Xun's bloody and violent threat, but what about this time?

This time it was really a difficult decision made by Liu Yu from the bottom of his heart!

If you leave with the other party, even if you die, you will definitely leave the words "loyal minister of the Han Dynasty" in the history books; if you don't leave, it will seem greedy for life and fear of death, and he is indeed attached to his beloved concubine in his heart.

He lives a comfortable life and is nostalgic for his son who has become the governor of Western Liaoning in Youzhou.

But on the other hand, behind such an obvious moral deficit, Liu Boan believed from the bottom of his heart that traveling eastward was useless. It was not wrong, but useless. This radical attitude would actually accelerate the decline of the Han Dynasty.

Death is the only solution for all the hardships, but sometimes when responsibilities are imposed, some things are even harder than death.

"Besides, I sincerely want to persuade Your Majesty to stay!" At this thought, Liu Yu could only kowtow with all his strength.

Liu Xie was extremely disappointed and stood up slowly, but he did not blame the other party: "I understand the difficulty of the Taiwei. It's okay if you don't leave. But I have made up my mind. I also ask the Taiwei to be more tolerant to me."

Liu Yu, who was lying on the ground, was almost embarrassed to tears.

"Where are the other members of the Qing family?" Liu Xiefu looked at the others.

"I and the Taiwei have the same meaning!" Huang Wan, the Guanglu doctor who had been silent and quietly looked at Liu Yu's back, raised his voice in response. "Forgive me, the times are different and people's hearts are changeable. Perhaps your Majesty's eastward journey at this time can really help you."

There is a little relief, but once the situation changes, no matter success or failure, living between tigers and wolves without the protection of some people in Weiyang Palace and Kansai, it will become even more difficult!"

"Besides, as a member of the clan, the Taiwei cannot say anything out loud, but ministers can speak out." Situ Zhao Qian also stepped forward and faced him sternly. "Your Majesty, if the overall situation is controlled by the Gongsun family, Cao family and other princes with foreign surnames,

Maybe the Han Dynasty can survive for a while by not making mistakes, but if it falls into the hands of the Liu clan and princes, you, your Majesty, will be insignificant! Therefore, I also advise your Majesty not to go eastward."

Liu Xie was about to say something but stopped. He nodded slowly at first, then shook his head firmly: "The Qing family is unwilling to travel eastward from me. I have nothing to say, but this time I have made up my mind. As the saying goes, the arrow is on the string and has to be fired!"

The official documents at the Chancellor's desk were all forged, and I was able to influence so many members of the Qing family... If I didn't leave, I might just stay in the palace as a prisoner, but they would all be killed!"

Liu Yu and others were stunned.

A layer of fine snow had already accumulated outside the palace. Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty came out of the palace in full crown and holding his sword. The five ministers of the Yang family, plus Zhou, Ding, Jing, and Li who were co-conspirators, followed him out of the palace.

Suddenly, dozens of tiger soldiers suddenly appeared, closed the palace door, and locked several important ministers who did not want to obey inside the palace.

When the emperor flees, even if he is just traveling eastward alone, it is not such a simple matter. At most, the Tiger and Ben troops will get out of the way of Jingze and open the palace gate. They are willing to accompany Jingze and only have dozens of confidants, but they still need Yang's help.

Clan Ding's family is waiting for each other outside the city; the two beauties Dong and Fu need to follow each other. Liu Bian's widow Tang Ji is the only living 'elder' and also needs to say goodbye; the emperor's six seals can be hung on the body, but the rest will be moved when the capital is moved.

He also had to bring with him the important national treasures he had brought, such as Wang Mang’s skull, which was very meaningful in this current situation; in addition, although Yang Biao claimed that he had bribed Han Xian, the captain of Wuguan, the emperor’s majesty was

It is their biggest reliance at this time, so they still need to try their best to maintain the emperor's etiquette.

By the time I finished packing, it was already close to noon.

So Jingze came forward and deceived Liu Xie into opening the palace gate in the name of General Wei's order to ask the emperor to go west to Wudu to work for the army. Liu Xie finally got out of the first layer of cage.

But soon, as the emperor's guard of honor appeared on Beique Street, all the residents along the street saw it, which finally alarmed the pro-Gongsun forces in the city.

Jingzhao Yin Han Xuan and Chang'an Ling Han Rui arrived in panic almost at the same time, and the two sides collided head-on with the Emperor's carriage near the arsenal on Beique Street.

"The Emperor has an edict!" Jingze, fully clothed and holding his sword, stood on the side of the Emperor's carriage. Seeing that Er Han had not yet come to ask, he immediately raised his voice expressionlessly in response. "Jing Zhaoyin, Chang'an ordered us to retreat immediately.

Come down, otherwise I will kill you!"

Han Xuan was panicked, but Han Rui was furious. He immediately stood on the street in the snow and yelled: "Where is the emperor's edict? Is there a Shangshutai version? Why do you want to kill us for no reason? Jingze, you are under the guard of the general.

You are so generous, and I was ordered to protect the emperor, why did you let the emperor do anything without permission?"

"That's right." Han Xuan also reacted and tried his best to stand on the street. "General Wei issued a written notice before leaving. The emperor is young and everything should be approved by the emperor or the three princes. In the imperial system, all decrees must be printed at the Shangshutai.

, When the emperor travels, can he be accompanied by the emperor's master, and can he have permission from the Chancellor?!"

Before he finished speaking, Sikong and Imperial Master Yang Biao, Shangshu Yang Zan, and Yang Mi all flashed out from the queue of carriages at the rear. Not to mention Han Xuan, even Han Rui was shocked for a moment and screamed secretly.

But taking this opportunity, the Emperor's carriage continued eastward while the two Hans were dumbfounded, and was about to pass the arsenal. The two Hans were unable to stop it, and they were unwilling to do so. They could only follow up in a hurry while sending people to inform them.

The city gate in front. However, the city defense now belongs entirely to Gongsun Zan, and Gongsun Bogui is arrogant. In his absence, none of his subordinates dare to close the city gate without permission.

Erhan became increasingly helpless and could only go to the Hou General's Mansion to inform his family and ask them to quickly find Gongsun Zan who had not returned to Chang'an for unknown reasons. At the same time, he hurriedly found Gongsun Zan's two confidants, namely Guan Jing, the minister.

Wangmen.

When the news arrived, one of the warriors in Wangmen was still confused, but Guan Jing was a wise man and understood the seriousness of the matter. In addition, he was Gongsun Zan's bodyguard, so he had a duty, so after hearing the news

He didn't dare to neglect at all. He didn't even have time to put on his official uniform. He just put on a home-made fur coat and a dog-skin hat. Then he rode alone and went straight to the east facing Beique Street to dominate the gate, and rushed directly to the emperor's honor guard.

The former ordered the door to be closed.

However, he was on top of the Bamen, watching the snow on the ground getting thicker and thicker, and the black smoke in the city remaining as before. Even the Wangmen led dozens of soldiers to rush there, but they still couldn't wait for the emperor, and he couldn't help but panic like a dog. In the end,

, or Erhan sent someone to report, it turned out that the emperor had obviously been prepared for it. When the ceremonial guard passed the arsenal and walked to Changle Palace, it suddenly turned north, and then turned from Mingguang Palace in the north to the east, seeming to be going through Qingming Gate.

Get away.

Guan Jing lost his soul in an instant and quickly urged Wang Men to go down to the city with him and ride to the north.

But when he arrived at Qingming Gate, before he reached the gate tower, he found that the emperor's guard of honor had already arrived in front of the city gate. Guan Shiqi was really helpless, so he could only grab Wang Men and give instructions, asking the latter to urge his soldiers to ride forward, and

But he himself quietly walked along the roadside and joined the large army behind the emperor's honor guard... Yes, the emperor's actions had already alarmed the whole city at this time. I don't know how many ministers came to chase, and I don't know how many Chang'an people came to chase them.

Come and see.

When they arrived, Wang Men hid beside the door and allowed the cavalry to come forward after receiving the order. Correspondingly, the emperor and his party also seemed to notice the sudden appearance of soldiers and horses, and they were equally nervous. Seeing these dozens of horsemen wearing dog skins

Hat, it seemed that he was a close cavalryman of Gongsun Zan who was born in Youzhou, but he didn't even get off his horse and wanted to collide with Yi Jia. Jingze had no choice but to step forward and scold him harshly.

However, these soldiers laughed and cursed loudly before he could speak, pretending that they could not hear what the other party was saying.

Yang Biao and others also stepped forward and scolded them. The dozens of riders still pretended not to know. Instead, they laughed and asked if the emperor in the car was really the emperor. Could it be that some people were pretending to be?

The scene was at a stalemate for a while, and Guan Shiqi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But at this moment, suddenly, as the curtain of one of the cars was torn open, Emperor Liu Xie appeared in full crown in full view of the public.

Dozens of cavalrymen were stunned immediately, and then, along with the surrounding soldiers and civilians who were watching the excitement, as well as the ministers who followed, they all turned pale and bowed down.

"Do you want to see me?" Liu Xie blushed, stood on the car with his sword in hand, and yelled loudly. "I am right here! Guan Jing, where is the king's gate?! And Jingzhao Yin Hanxuan,

Where is Chang'an's order, Han Rui? And the ministers behind me are here to see him too!"

"The Supreme Being has an edict. Please pass it on to the ministers Guan Jing, Wangmen, Jingzhao Yin Hanxuan, and Chang'an order Han Rui to come quickly!" Upon hearing this, the minister Yang Qi immediately shouted with all his strength. "The rest of the ministers also came forward to listen to the edict!"

The four of them had no choice but to go forward to pay homage, and many of the accompanying ministers also came forward and knelt down.

"The four of you are Han ministers, but you lead troops to block the emperor. Are you trying to help the thieves kill the king?" Liu Xie's eyes were red, and he pointed at the four people in the street and scolded them.

"Why did your Majesty say this?" Guan Shiqi looked at him awkwardly. "I really don't know that the Supreme Being is here..."

"Do you know at this time?" Yang Biao looked at him solemnly.

"Of course I know." Guan Jing raised his head and turned to Yang Biao, regaining some of his momentum. "But why is the Supreme here? The Supreme is not as good as the weak crown, and he leaves the capital without permission..."

"The three princes and several ministers are accompanying us. The minister of the Shangshutai is accompanying us. We have the permission of the emperor's master, and we have the tiger and brave generals to protect us. How can we go out without permission?" Yang Biao asked proudly. "When will it be the turn of the ministers to interrogate the three princes, the minister, and the emperor?"

What happened?"

Guan Jing was speechless.

"But what exactly is the Emperor going to do?" Han Ruifu raised his head again and asked. "I am concerned about the Emperor's safety, can you accompany me?"

"You all have your own duties. This matter is not your business." Jingze suddenly said slowly.

Han Rui raised his head in the snow and retorted with a sneer: "The emperor is concerned with the safety of the world, who should not be questioned? Moreover, the emperor has no permission to leave the capital, but the Taiwei and General Wei did not say it clearly. I am afraid that the emperor will be deceived by the traitor and make a huge mistake.

!”

"Who is the traitor?" Just when Yang Biao and others were about to continue to refute, under the snowflakes, the emperor suddenly spoke again. "Isn't it your general Wei who is shaking the Han Dynasty now?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone including Yang Biao began to breathe quickly.

"If it weren't for General Wei, Your Majesty would have gone to accompany the Young Emperor!" The other three people in the front row were all frightened. Behind him, Zhao Ping, Feng Fang, Zhang Fan and other ministers also bowed their heads and remained silent. Only Han Rui was furious.

He stood up and raised his sword and faced the emperor directly. "Isn't it not your Majesty's father and brother, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao and those who shaken the Han Dynasty? It was General Wei who led us to Hebei to reorganize the Han Dynasty and gradually restore it to the best place in the world.

Even Cao Liu dared not deny the merits of General Wei, but Your Majesty blamed the loyal ministers for no reason, how unwise is it?!"

"When things come to this, why do you need to say so much?" The emperor was no longer angry when he heard this, but simply pulled out the emperor's sword from his waist with a clang. "General Wei was a loyal minister in the past, can't he be a traitor today? Even Dong Zhuo was the same back then.

Isn't he a loyal minister and a good general? Once he gained power, he brought disaster to the country? And what happened today is what I want to see? General Wei not only has no father in his eyes, but instead regards me as a scoundrel and doesn't even want to give up his daughter. What does this mean?

?Not only that, he also killed all my close relatives and alienated the ministers and relatives. I was in the palace, worried every day, and just washed my face with tears. This is what a loyal minister does? His heart, at this time, is passing by.

You know! Why cover up?!"

"What does Your Majesty want?" The veins at the corners of Han Rui's mouth were pulsing.

"Without him, I want to travel east to Nanyang to summon the princes of the clan to serve the king!" At this point, the emperor suddenly threw the emperor's sword in front of the opponent. "It is to break up with General Wei and become an enemy... If you consider yourself a loyal minister of General Wei,

, today you can kill me for him to fulfill his wish, otherwise please get out of the way!"

After saying this, he pulled out another sword from Jingze's waist beside him. He was fully crowned, the white blade came down to the ground, and he walked boldly into the Qingming Gate in the snow.

The soldiers along the way, as well as the chasing ministers who were in front of them, fell to the ground to confront him. Even Han Rui was furious, but he just stood there with his head bowed and said nothing, not daring to pick up the sword on the ground.

Killing a king is like killing a father, and Zhao Dun's story comes first. Today, Han Rui can do great things with his strength. After all, it is only a life. Naturally, his family does not have to worry, but he will inevitably let Gongsun Xun, who has been a great benefactor to him, end up.
To be continued...
