After Li Jue and Guo Bang led the Xiliang army and fought back to Chang'an, they naturally had a resentment to vent.
They didn't have any restraints, so they simply went on a massive plunder and started doing their own business. Those who burned, killed and looted along the way saw the ministers of the imperial court and killed them indiscriminately.
Taichang Qing Zhongfu, Taipu Lu Kui, Dahonglu Zhou Huan, Chengmen School Captain Cui Lie, and Yueqi School Captain Wang Qi all died in the national disaster.
The Xiliang soldiers finally calmed down after burning, killing and looting for a whole day and night.
When Li Jue and Guo Si saw that the army had been relieved, they asked Zhang Ji and others to gather their troops and wait for orders. He took his men and went straight into the palace city to get down to business.
So the rebels surrounded the inner court in a panic, and the courtiers asked the emperor to go to Xuanpingmen to stop the chaos. Li Jue and others saw Huang Gai and knew that it was Emperor Xian, so they gathered the sergeant and shouted "Long live".
Emperor Xian was in panic all night, and now he saw Li Jue and Guo Bang coming with murderous intent, and felt a little scared.
Leaning on the building, he pretended to be calm and asked, "What do you want to do when you go to Chang'an without waiting for the invitation?" When Li Jue and Guo Bang saw the young emperor, they felt a little lustful, and they looked up and said, "Master Dong is a minister of your Majesty's country. I was murdered by Wang Yun for no reason, and I came here to take revenge. I dared not rebel. But when I saw Wang Yun, I withdrew my troops."
The implication is that we are here to avenge Dong Zhuo, not to rebel. After killing Wang Yun, we will retreat.
When Emperor Xian heard what Li Jue and Guo Bang said, he breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Wang Yun beside him, hoping that he would stand up and settle their dispute.
Wang Yun, who was at the emperor's side, heard this and said, "I am originally planning for the country. Now that the matter has come to this, Your Majesty will not pity you for causing harm to the country. I would like to see the two thieves."
Emperor Xian, pretending to be hesitant and unable to bear it, let Wang Yun die. Living is the most important thing.
So, Wang Yun jumped down from the Xuanping Gate Tower, losing more than others, and shouted, "Wang Yun is here!"
Li Jue and Guo Si met Wang Yun. Their enemies were extremely jealous when they met. They drew their swords and shouted, "What crime did Grand Master Dong deserve to be killed on sight?"
Wang Yun said contemptuously, "The crime of Thief Dong is so great that it is unspeakable! On the day of his execution, the people of Chang'an all celebrated each other. Don't you hear it?"
Li Jue and Guo Si were a little dissatisfied, so they asked, "The grand master is guilty. What crime do we have that we are not willing to forgive?"
As soon as they finished speaking, Wang Yun yelled, "Why do you say so much, traitor! I, Wang Yun, am just going to die today!"
Li Jue and Guo Si were angry, raised their swords and killed Wang Yun downstairs. But the army still did not retreat, and still surrounded the tower.
It turned out that it was Li Jue who suddenly wanted to kill Emperor Xian and become emperor himself. Guo Bang is quite knowledgeable, but he sees that his brother is hot-headed.
He had no choice but to speak out and admonished him, "No. If I kill him today, I am afraid that everyone will not accept it. It is better to still serve him as the master and win the princes into the pass. First remove his wings and then kill him. The world will be in trouble."
Li Jue also came to his senses, listened to his advice, held down his weapon, and waited for Emperor Xian to ask questions.
Emperor Xian was upstairs, and Li Jue and Guo Si killed Wang Yun, but the army refused to retreat, feeling a little timid.
He asked his attendants to announce the order and asked, "Since Wang Yun has been executed, why do the troops and horses not retreat?"
Li Jue and Guo Si saw that it was a minor official who came to ask questions, so they didn't care, so they asked for merit and reward, saying, "I and other members of the royal family have not been awarded titles for their meritorious service, so they dare not retreat."
The attendant conveyed their thoughts to Emperor Xian. Emperor Han finally understood. It turned out that he wanted to ask for an official title, so this would be easy to handle.
So he boldly came to the gate tower and asked, "What title do you want to be granted?" Li Jue and Guo Bang didn't say anything, so they took out blank sheets of paper and wrote down their titles respectively, demanding such official titles. At the same time, he did not forget the other Xiliang generals.
Emperor Xian took a look and saw that Li Jue and Guo Si were asking for such a prominent position. Although he was very angry, people had to bow their heads under the eaves, so they had no choice but to obey.
Li Jue was granted the title of Chariot General Chiyanghou and Sili Xiaowei Jiajieyue, and Guo Bin was made the rear general Meiyanghou Jiajieyue, and they shared the government affairs.
Fan Chou was the right general Wannianhou, and Zhang Ji was the hussar general Pingyanghou, leading the troops to garrison Hongnong. The remaining Li Meng, Wang Fang, etc. are each serving as school captains.
Seeing that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty agreed to their request, Li Jue and Guo Bang were satisfied and led the Xiliang army to withdraw from the palace.
When Emperor Xian saw that the Xiliang army had retreated, he could no longer bear it and was filled with anger. He drew out the Emperor's Sword and started slashing randomly to vent his resentment.
It's true that he has just emerged from the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den. We just killed Dong Zhuo, and we don’t want such a bunch of beasts to come again. Why is my life so miserable? I am also an emperor, so why am I doing so comfortably, but here I am, it is so troubled.
Hey, when I thought of this, I couldn't control my tears anymore, and they started to flow down. Poor Emperor Xian, he was still a minor without a crown.
Li Jue and Guo Si saw that their goals had been achieved, Wang Yun was dead, and they also gained glory and wealth. On the one hand, he arranged for his cronies to take over the four gates of Chang'an and control Chang'an in his own hands. On the one hand, he sent people to kill all the young and old of Wang Yun's clan. This is called cutting the grass and roots, otherwise there will be future troubles.
He also ordered the body of Dong Zhuo to be tracked down, and some fragments of skin and bones were obtained, which were carved into fragrant wood, put together, held a large sacrifice, and used king's clothes and coffin to prepare to choose an auspicious day and move it to Xiwu.
After these arrangements were made, Li Jue and Guo Bang summoned the Xiliang generals to the Grand Master's residence, which is now Li Jue's residence, to discuss the matter.
The Xiliang army is now the only one following them. Knowing that they are invited, they naturally dare not not come.
After a while, the Xiliang generals, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Li Meng, Wang Fang, etc. all arrived, including Jia Xu's.
When Li Jue and Guo Bang saw everyone arriving, they felt very proud. I guess Dong Zhuo had been treated like this before.
The two of them looked at each other, and Guo Bang followed Li Jue's instructions and told everyone about the official position he had just obtained and the matter of killing Wang Yun and taking revenge. Among them, their contribution was highlighted. At the same time, they also hoped that the generals of Xiliang would obey their orders and obey their constraints, work together with the imperial court to rectify the world, and share the glory and wealth.
After Guo Si finished speaking, Li Jue stared at everyone with unkind eyes and played with the wine glasses to see who disagreed. If he doesn't agree, I will kill him now.
It turned out that the two of them had already discussed it before gathering everyone. If anyone is disobedient, kill them to avoid causing trouble in the future. The swordsman has been ambushed in the yard a long time ago, and he is just waiting to win the battle.
After listening to what Guo Si said, the other Xiliang generals had no objections. Anyone who follows us is a fool. As long as there is good food and drink, we can do whatever we are told.
Zhang Ji was a little dissatisfied, thinking that we all followed Dong Zhuo together and had similar status. Your skills may not be much better than mine, and I even feel that you are not as good as me.
Now he is sitting on top of us and tyrannizing us. Can we bear this? Zhang Ji wanted to have a fit at that moment, but when he saw Jia Xu winking at him, he held it back and did not immediately fall out.
Li Jue and Guo Bang were very proud to see that everyone did not disagree and supported them. So he asked his subordinates to hold a banquet to celebrate, and for a while they drank and drank, and there was a peaceful scene everywhere.
However, little did he know that the danger had come and Yuan Shao had arrived with his army.
