"Then who do you think is secretly helping Liu defend his child?"
After Dong Zhuo thought carefully, he didn't have any clue.
When he entered the capital, he had already taken all the military power into his own hands. He could not imagine anyone who could quietly help the emperor last night.
"Perhaps they are not members of the military?"
Jia Xu thought carefully and then replied.
Before Jia Xu met the emperor, he actually felt that the emperor was bound to die, but he did not expect that Lin Mu was still alive.
The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid that someone could kill two hundred soldiers and send him into the palace under Dong Zhuo's eyes.
In this case, wouldn't it be easy to kill Dong Zhuo?
But the sergeant's entry into the city was so obvious that anyone who was not blind could see it.
Then there is only one result, and that is that those people are not actually sergeants, but disciples maintained by various families.
Keeping retainers has been around since ancient times. Nowadays, due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the chaos in the court, the number of retainers maintained by ministers has become even more numerous.
Some families only have a few dozen disciples, but some families even have thousands of disciples.
It is even said that some wealthy families support tens of thousands of guests.
These hangers-on are called hangers-on at best, but private soldiers at worst.
If several ministers who are dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo unite and let the retainers sneak into the palace...
Dong Zhuo listened to Jia Xu's words, closed his eyes and meditated, and said angrily after a moment.
"It seems those people still think our knives are disadvantageous!"
…………
Lin Mu walked on the road, thinking about the battle last night.
Although they were afraid of killing those guards last night, because the palace door was closed, they finally chose to fight to the death.
Although Lin Mu was on the rise, facing the desperate fight of so many guards, Lin Mu chose to start Ragnarok.
Lin Mu couldn't remember what happened after that. It seemed that he had to be more cautious when starting Ragnarok after this.
Even the roof of the main hall was shattered without knowing why. When Lin Mu woke up, Lin Mu didn't know why he was lying in blood.
Lin Mu rubbed his head, feeling that his whole body was filled with the smell of blood.
"Somebody come!"
A man staggered over from a distance. Although he came in front of Lin Mu, he looked full of fear of Lin Mu.
Lin Mu discovered that this little eunuch was the same one who came into the palace to light the lamp last night. Lin Mu smiled and said.
"Take me to the bedroom."
The little eunuch shivered and walked in front of Lin Mu to lead the way.
"What are you afraid of?"
"This servant saw His Majesty's divine power last night and was captured by His Majesty's divine power..."
Lin Mu waved his hand and continued to ask.
"How many people are there in this palace?"
"Your Majesty, there are only seven or eight maids left in the palace, and there is only one slave left among the eunuchs."
Lin Mu sighed. A few days ago, there was a rebellion among the Shichangshi. These maids and eunuchs ran away from the palace. Last night, Dong Zhuo tried to kill him again.
How could it be possible to kill the emperor without being silenced? These eunuchs and maids were already familiar with it.
Those seven or eight palace ladies must be too old to run away without even thinking about it.
Seeing Lin Mu sighing, the little eunuch said again.
"Your Majesty has no worries. The Queen Mother knows that Your Majesty is fine and will return to the palace. By then, with the Queen Mother in charge, the palace will be restored to its original state."
Lin Mu could only nodded, but then asked again.
"Then why don't you run?"
"This servant is a poor person. By chance, he was taken into the palace by Lord Jian Shuo and serves the Queen Mother. Even if he runs away, he will die in this world. It is better to accompany His Majesty."
Lin Mu did not expect that this young eunuch was summoned into the palace by Jian Shuo.
Jian Shuo was originally a minister left by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty for Liu Bian to help Liu Bian stabilize the court.
Although he is a eunuch, he is the first of the eight Xiyuan captains, and the first of the eight Xiyuan captains, the Shangjun captain, is on the same level as the general.
In other words, the person who assisted Liu Bian was at the level of a general, and Liu Bian's uncle was also a general.
The soldiers and horses near Luoyang were all owned by Liu Bian's lineage. Liu Bian should be more stable after he ascended the throne, but what Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty did not expect was.
Jian Shuo wanted to kill He Jin and help Liu Xie ascend the throne. The reason was for no other reason than that Liu Xie was easy to control and he was afraid of He Jin.
As a result, what happened later was known. Jian Shuo was killed by people sent by He Jin, and He Jin was also killed by other eunuchs.
Liu Bian was instantly helpless and ended up like this. As an emperor, he had to take action himself.
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Bian Jin."
After chatting with Lin Mu for a while, it was obvious that Bian Jin was no longer as afraid of Lin Mu as before.
"You should have closed the doors of the main hall and the palace last night, right?"
"Seeing that His Majesty was so powerful, my slaves deceived the Xiliang barbarians that there was an ambush in the palace and feared something might happen, and then closed the palace door. However, the door of the palace was not closed by the slaves, but by the Xiliang barbarians themselves."
Lin Mu nodded. If he were one of those Xiliang soldiers, he would do the same thing. Since something happened in the palace, he would just close the palace gate and catch the turtle in the jar.
"Then how did the roof of the hall break?"
Hearing Lin Mu ask this, Bian Jin couldn't help but shudder.
"That was when His Majesty cut a person in half and then smashed him away with an axe..."
"Ah? Is it so cruel?"
Lin Mu didn't expect that he would be so cruel after turning on Ragnarok.
At this time, the two of them had arrived at the door of the palace. There were originally more than a dozen eunuchs serving in the palace, but now no one was there.
It was deserted and not popular at all, and this Nuo Da's dormitory seemed so empty.
He walked into the palace and threw the blood-stained dragon robe on the ground.
"Fetch some water and take this dragon robe to wash."
Although it was early at this time, it was very dark due to the rain.
This season is autumn and winter, and every time it rains, the weather gets a little colder.
When Bian Jin fetched the water, the forest trees were soaked in the bucket.
Originally, as an emperor, if you want to take a bath, you must need hot water, but now the only person serving Lin Mu is Bian Jin. By the time he boils the hot water, it will be already evening.
But the smell of blood on his body made Lin Mu feel a little uncomfortable, not because of anything else, but because there were so many flies in autumn.
After Lin Mu walked into the bucket, he found that he was soaked in a bucket of cold water. Apart from feeling a little cold, he had no other reaction.
It seems that this should be the result of body digitization. The advantage is that as long as one's health points are not lost, he will not die.
But the disadvantage is that if your health is not high, you may die even if your little finger hits the corner of the table.
After washing the blood off his body, he changed into normal clothes.
