Chang'an in late autumn is no longer as green as in summer. The leaves on the trees beside the road are gradually drying up, and the golden wind shakes the dead leaves and pulls them away from the branches.
Turning and dancing, the dead leaves fell to the ground, spreading a thick layer.
In a mansion in the city, the dead leaves of the trees in the garden rustle in the autumn wind, as if telling the desolation of autumn.
There were several people sitting in the backyard room. The leader was about fifty years old. Although he was dressed luxuriously, he could not hide his fierce aura. However, his face was a little pale, and there was a burst of sweat on his forehead from time to time. He was from the Han Dynasty court. Dong Cheng, the current patriarch of the country, is also the main figure in this ongoing incident!
Besides Dong Cheng, there were several people in the room. Two of them were wearing armor. They looked heroic but lacked the unique killing aura of a hundred battle generals. These two were General Zhaoxin Wu Zilan and General Wang Zifu.
Except for the two, the other two were wearing official robes and did not have armor like the first two. The person who is similar in age to Dong Cheng is Changshui Colonel Zhongji, and the person sitting under Zhongji is Yilang Wu Shuo.
A few days ago, when Dong Cheng returned home, he immediately looked carefully at the jade belt given to him by the young emperor Liu Xie, but after pondering for a while, Dong Cheng found nothing. With no other choice, Dong Cheng simply used a dagger to open the jade belt directly along the line.
Things developed to this point, and Dong Cheng finally discovered the secret in the jade belt. In this jade belt, there is actually a piece of white silk placed in it. And this white silk was not rolled into a tube and hidden inside, but was sewn directly on the jade belt and became part of the jade belt. It's no wonder that Yang Jian couldn't see any flaws before.
I saw that the white silk was covered with tiny characters, but these characters were not written with ink, but with blood. Maybe because it took a long time to write, the blood is no longer pure red, but slightly black.
"I have heard that in the great human relations, father and son come first, and the distinction between respect and inferiority means that the monarch and his ministers are the most important. The recent powerful minister Yang Jian comes from a famous family and talks about the rank of assistant. He is really guilty of deception.
It is not my intention to unite the party, corrupt the government, and issue rewards and punishments. I worry about it all day and night, fearing that the world will be in danger.
You are the elder of the country and a close relative of mine. I remember the difficulties of our ancestors in starting a business, and we are able to gather together loyal and righteous martyrs to wipe out the traitors, restore peace to the country, and eradicate violence in the early days. This is a great blessing for our ancestors.
He broke his fingers in panic and wrote an edict to Qing. He should be careful about it again and again, so as not to suffer any consequences. ..." Dong Cheng looked at the edict written in blood and read it three times in a row. He didn't know when he burst into tears.
But although Dong Cheng discovered the secret in the jade belt, there was nothing he could do for a while. Although he wanted to help the young emperor get rid of the rebellious minister Yang Jian, with his own efforts, it was like a moth rushing to the flame. Suicide.
Dong Cheng wanted to contact several loyal officials of the Han Dynasty to plan together, but he also knew very well that I was afraid that from the day you left the palace, he himself had fallen under Yang Jian's surveillance, and he must not act rashly.
Opportunities always come so suddenly. Yesterday, a servant in Dong Cheng's house named Qin Qingtong was caught having an affair with Dong Cheng's concubine. Dong Cheng was so angry that he ordered people to beat him to death with sticks. The servant was also a tough guy. Seeing that there was no turning around, he grabbed a knife and hit Dong Cheng hard, who was unprepared.
After being injured by others, although Dong Cheng was indeed angry at first, after calming down, Dong Cheng realized that this was a great opportunity. He immediately ignored his own health and secretly contacted Wu Zilan, Wang Zifu, Zhong Ji, and Wu Shuo. These four people were allowed to gather secretly under the guise of visiting to plot.
So, this is what happened today.
"Everyone, please see, this thing is what your majesty hid in his belt today and ordered me to take it out!" Seeing that everyone had arrived, Dong Cheng immediately took out the blood edict hidden in the jade belt. As he spoke, Dong Cheng's tears were already streaming down his face.
Wang Zifu, Wu Zilan and others were naturally confused when they saw Dong Cheng acting like this. They didn't understand why this Dong Cheng actually started crying by himself.
The prince asked: "What's wrong with Mr. Dong?"
When he thought of the bloody edict on clothes and belts, Dong Cheng was so sad that he was speechless. He just handed the edict on clothes and belts written in small letters to the prince.
Taking the silk and browsing it hastily, the prince was also shocked.
After reading the edict, Zhong Ji immediately became angry: "Yang Jian is a traitor. He has deceived Your Majesty too much. He has wronged the fourth and third sons of the Yang family and committed such treason and injustice. As ministers, how can we see Your Majesty being so humiliated and indifferent?" ?”
"Silence, sir!" Seeing this kind of excitement, Dong Cheng was secretly pleased that the big man had loyal ministers, and at the same time reminded him, "Young sir, you still need to be careful that there are ears behind the wall."
"This is Dong Gong's rear residence, so what's the problem?" Although Dong Cheng said this, Zhong Ji still said angrily: "If there is an informant of Yang Jian's traitor here, wouldn't the Han Dynasty become the traitor's traitor? Yiyantang?"
"Brother!" Wu Shuo immediately followed up and persuaded: "What Mr. Dong said makes sense. Since your Majesty has issued an edict, he naturally hopes that this matter will be done secretly! Although we are indignant, we must not be ruined by our temporary anger. His Majesty’s important matter!”
After receiving the advice from these people, although Zhong Ji was angry, he finally calmed down. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If they really ruined the little emperor's affairs because of their carelessness, they would never be able to atone for their sins.
"Your Majesty asked Mr. Dong to kill the traitor Yang Jian. This move is very important. Does Mr. Dong have any objections?" Wu Zilan asked.
After all, Yang Jian, who had absorbed most of the power of Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army, now has the entire Yongzhou under his control. If Dong Cheng and others want to kill Yang Jian, it will definitely be more difficult than climbing to the sky. Be difficult.
If you want to do this, you must make a thorough plan in advance!
"Your Majesty is kind and kind. If the traitor Yang Jian hadn't deceived you too much, how could he be like this?" Dong Cheng said: "As ministers, we should relieve your worries!"
"If we are going to kill the traitor Yang Jian, I will be the vanguard!" Wang Zifu said with his hands in hand.
"The Yang thief is powerful and full of tricks. You can only defeat him wisely. You must not act rashly, otherwise you will only fall short!" Zhong Ji said: "With the troops and horses under the command of the two generals, even if they start an attack, they will still be defeated by Yang Jian!"
Zhong Ji is right. Yang Jian has a very strong hold on the military power of his men. Although Wang Zifu and Wu Zilan have military positions, they have no actual rights. The manpower they can mobilize is only a few hundred people. .
With only such a small amount of power, trying to deal with the huge power of Yang Jianlai is like hitting an egg against a stone.
