"Oh …" After Yang Lin finished looking at the spongy silk, he thought for a while and said, "Tell Mr. Zhang Ling that the royal family's library is temporarily kept in the Ying Yang. Dong Zhuo was robbing the imperial mausoleum, so let him dig, even if the heavens were wrong, one could still live, but if Dong Zhuo wanted to bring about his own destruction, he could not stop him. As for the two envoys, Han Rong, and Chen Ji, I will immediately write a letter for Hua Xin to receive you. "
After Chen Cang saw that Wu Feng had finished speaking, he immediately stepped forward and said: "Lord General, North Sea,, Tung Lai County Gong Yi, and Pingyuan County's taiwai Gong Lin have sent people to deliver urgent letters. Tarzan's Yellow Scarf Army Guan Hai, Zhang Rao and Xu He have worked together to eliminate Qingzhou Acanthopanax's Jiao He's Qingzhou Government Army, and have already swept through Qingzhou's Ji Nan, Le An, and Qi.
"Hehe …" The Qingzhou Yellow Scarf Army can no longer sit still. " Yang Lin was also waiting, waiting for the right reason and the right time to enter the Qingzhou. He immediately replied back and told Gong Lin and Gong Yi to nominate Kong Rong as the Qingzhou Acanthopanax in the name of the Pingyuan Country's taiwai and the Tung Lai County. If you want to let the world know, this was suggested by the officials of the Qingzhou himself. "
He paused for a while, and continued: Order Yan Liang, Wen Chou, to lead Sun Guan,, Song Xiang, Yin Li, Bu Yi, to rush to Qingzhou, with Yan Liang as the Commander, Wen Chou as the Inspector General, Zhong Yao as the Chief of Staff, to form a team of the Qingzhou, quickly stabilize the Qingzhou Yellow Scarf army, and protect the Qingzhou.
In the second half of 3190, when the Duke of Guandong was still on vacation with their troops, many big things happened in the world, which pushed the chaotic country further into chaos.
All the valuable things had already been moved away. Even the citizens of the Luoyang area, who had been captured by Dong Zhuo's army, rushed back to Chang'an, leaving almost everything in their wake.
Seeing that the Luoyang had already turned into an empty city, the grieving and crazy Dong Zhuo actually thought of the imperial mausoleum. In the name of moving the imperial mausoleum, he ordered Lv Bu to lead the army to dig the mausoleum and loot all the treasures that were buried there. The pitiful past emperors had enjoyed an endless amount of wealth when they were alive, and after death, they hoped to continue enjoying it. However, they did not expect Dong Zhuo to take advantage of them.
At the same time Dong Zhuo buried his head in the grave robbing, seeing the chaotic scene inside the Duke of Guandong, he suddenly made a move. At the end of June, Dong Zhuo sent Han Rong the Great Donkey, Shang Shu Ling Chen Ji, Yin Xiu the Young Palace, Hu Muban the Golden Man, Wu Xiu the Great Master Craftsman, Wang Gui the Commandant of the Yue Mountain Range, and the others as the Imperial Court's envoys to respectively send envoys to Hanoi Yang Lin, Yuan Shao the Acid Jujube, and Yuan Shu the Nanyang.
It was unknown if Dong Zhuo was sincere about his peace with the Guandong Allied Army, or if he had some ulterior motive to provoke the enmity between the dukes of the Guandong Allied Army and the warriors that were left behind in the imperial court, he sent an envoy to the Duke of Guandong to deliver the reconciliation documents. He hoped that the Duke of Guandong would put the army back and disperse the army.
Han Rong, Chen Ji, Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, and Wang Gui were all carefully chosen emissaries by Dong Zhuo. Yin Xiu and Wu Xiu were all famous families in the Nanyang County, and currently, they were all famous people. As for Han Rong and Chen Ji, their reputations were high and mighty, almost as famous as the great scholars like Xun Shuang and Zheng Xuan.
Honestly speaking, with, Chen Ji, Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, and Wang Gui's identities and experience, it was not impossible for them to reconcile with each other. After all, Dong Zhuo had killed over fifty people from the Yuan clan. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the two brothers, agreed to this in silence, as if they did not want to exchange blows with Dong Zhuo.
However, Dong Zhuo did not understand Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. They were the kind of heroes who had the ambition to dominate the world, bury their hatred deep in their hearts, and never rest until they reached their goal. Since they dared to burn the doors of the palace and kill the eunuchs, how could they submit to Dong Zhuo so easily?
Dong Zhuo was also daydreaming. If he really had the intention to make peace, then he shouldn't have killed the Yuan clan. Such a blood feud had already been formed. In the Han Dynasty, this era where revenge was especially important, even ordinary people would not be able to endure it, let alone a hero like Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao.
The seed of hatred had long sprouted in Yuan Shu's heart. He wished he could skin Dong Zhuo alive and eat his flesh. When he found out that Dong Zhuo had sent Wu Xiu and Wang Gui out to send them to the Nanyang, he immediately felt that the time to vent his anger had come.
The moment Wu Xiu and Wang Gui entered the Nanyang County, they were captured by the army sent by Yuan Shu before they could even see Yuan Shu. No matter how Wu Xiu and Wang Gui argued, or even took out the Emperor's edict, Yuan Shu still killed Wu Xiu and Wang Gui in the name of Dong Zhuo's spy.
As soon as Yin Xiu and Hu Muban who had sent out their envoys, were captured by the Eastern Ping taiwai's army. Relying on the fact that he was Wang Kuang's brother-in-law, Hu Muban wasn't afraid in the slightest. He continued to console Yin Xiu, hoping to see either Yuan Shao or Yuan Shao.
Who knew that Yuan Shao was not willing to see them, and did not even give them a chance to speak, directly ordering them to kill Yin Xiu and Hu Muban. Wang Kuang was one of Yuan Shao's most loyal supporters, and his orders were to give the highest order, killing both Yin Xiu and Hu Muban without saying a word.
The pitiful Hu Muban was even Wang Kuang's brother-in-law, unable to escape Wang Kuang's grasp. The king was ruthless, the king had no relatives, and those who wanted to rule the world were all stone-hearted. On the verge of death, Hu Muban wrote a letter to Wang Kuang, which could be considered his final will.
"Am I Dong Zhuo's relative? Was it Dong Zhuo's biological father? Could it be that I am as cruel and bloody as Dong Zhuo and have committed a heinous crime? Yuan Shao used his own personal gains to disregard the nation, raise his troops to punish the Son of Heaven and kill the Duke of Earth. What was the difference between him and Dong Zhuo? Yuan Shao spat out the venom of the long serpent, venting all of the anger and hatred he had towards Dong Zhuo onto our bodies. Its viciousness and cruelty far surpassed Dong Zhuo's. People are afraid of death, and so am I, but I can't bear to be killed by a bunch of people who are full of righteousness and evil. I would rather die under Dong Zhuo's iron hoof, under the Ant Thief's iron harrow, than die under this group of hypocritical scholars' blades. If the dead had a spirit, I would pour out their monstrous sins to the Emperor, and let the heavens punish them heavily for me. We were originally a family, but now, because of Yuan Shao's brutality, we have become enemies. I don't think it's worth it for you, is such a shameless person worthy for you to follow? My two sons, your nieces, after I die, do not let them see my corpse, do not let hatred pass down from generation to generation, and bring disaster to our children. "
When Han Rong and Chen Ji arrived at the river, they did not see Yang Lin either. Hua Xin told them that the Hussar General Yang Lin went into the mountains to exterminate the Army of Montenegro, and entrusted himself to receive the two great scholars in Hanoi.
They did not expect that the hussar general's eyes and ears were so sensitive. They had just left the Luoyang and not many people knew where they were. Yang Lin, who was in the middle of the black mountain, had already sent people to receive them.
Yang Lin was indeed exterminating bandits, but he was still in Hanoi. Ever since he received the Zhang Banxian's report, he knew that Han Rong and Chen Ji were coming here, and he even knew their goal. The reason he didn't want to see them was because they were the great scholars of the day. He didn't want to listen to their teachings, and he also didn't want to offend them.
As Hua Xin had just come out of Luoyang, they had many common topics to discuss. The few of them conversed with each other for a while, but before Han Rong and Chen Ji could persuade them, Hua Xin used his own experiences to persuade them to leave Dong Zhuo and settle the score with the hussar general.
Han Rong, Chen Ji are famous scholars, loyal emperors, how would they side with Yang Lin who opposed the imperial power and initiated the Surveillance History's conference system? They immediately began to criticize Hua Xin, criticizing his wrong thoughts. Hua Xin was definitely not convinced, he argued with them based on logic, and not long after, the three of them started arguing with each other.
After arguing for a while, Hua Xin suddenly realized something and could not help but let out a long sigh: "Ai … hussar general's foresight is truly as good as god … " He laughed, then took out a letter from his pocket and handed it over to Han Rong and Chen Ji: "This is a letter from hussar general, take a look."
Han Rong, Chen Ji opened the letter and took a look. It was written by Yang Lin three days ago, and the content was mainly to tell Hua Xin that Han Rong and Chen Ji are today's scholars and wanted him to receive them alive so that they would not quarrel with each other. At the same time, they predicted that Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, and Wang Gui who had sent out their mission might be killed by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, so they asked him to keep Han Rong and Chen Ji, in case they went back to the Central Plains to be killed by Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu.
In fact, Yang Lin was trying to scare Han Rong and Chen Ji. He knew very well that Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, and Wang Gui would definitely be killed by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, but because Han Rong's reputation was great, if they were to return, Dong Zhuo would not kill them. Even if they were to return to the Central Plains, Yuan Shao and Wang Gui would not kill them.
It was because of their reputation that Yang Lin wanted to keep them here. However, with their loyalty to the big sized man, they would not stay with Yang Lin no matter what. But it was different now. As long as Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, and Wang Gui were killed, he would have a reason to capture Han Rong and Chen Ji.
Han Rong and Chen Ji were even more shocked, they had only been notified to them by Dong Zhuo three days ago, how did Yang Lin find out about this three days ago? Han Rong looked at Chen Ji, his face at a loss. Chen Ji shook his head and muttered: "I don't believe it, Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, Wang Gui, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are former colleagues, why would they kill them?"
"Gentlemen, how about we make a bet?" Hua Xin laughed and said confidently: "If Yin Xiu, Hu Muban, Wu Xiu, and Wang Gui return to Luoyang, I will send you across the Yellow River immediately. But if anything happens to them, I'll leave you in Hanoi. "How about it?"
In the year 3190 of the Central Yuan Dynasty, that is, in the year 190 of the First Year of the Emperor, due to frequent natural disasters and man-made disasters, food in Jizhou, Northern Region, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Henan Province, Jing Prefecture, Liang Zhou and other places were not harvested. The people were not only displaced, but they were also suffering from the horrors of starvation.
