Reborn Wei Yan

Chapter 299 Chaos in Chang'an

Although the second year of Chuping (191) which was full of wars and turmoil has passed, in this war-torn era, princes contend for hegemony and local separatist regimes are happening all the time. When the Kwantung heroes are staring at each other, the court far away in Chang'an City There are also dark clouds and dark clouds, and undercurrents turbulent!

After Dong Zhuo returned to Chang'an, Weifu became more prosperous, stole the emperor's car uniform, and ordered all officials below the Shangshu to report to his Xiangfu if they had sons.He also took his younger brother Dong Wen as the left general, and his son Dong Huang as the servant and lieutenant of the Chinese army, all of whom were military officers.Dafeng's clan was enfeoffed, and Dong's infants were all enfeoffed, all men were enfeoffed as lords, and women were enfeoffed as Yijun.Build Meiwu in Chang'an (now northeast of Meixian County, Shaanxi Province), with a height of seven feet and a thickness of seven feet, of which the accumulated grain can be used for 30 years.Dong Zhuo was also cruel and easy to kill. If the generals made a slight mistake in words, they were executed immediately, and in the name of rebellion, they massacred the old people in Guanzhong.His perverse actions aroused strong dissatisfaction among courtiers.

The struggle against Dong Zhuo did not stop because of the retreat of the Kwantung Allied Forces with Yuan Shao as the general leader. Even when the Kwantung princes were fighting in the Central Plains, there were endless assassinations against Dong Zhuo in Chang'an City.

Among them, Wu Fu, the captain of the Yueqi school, hated Dong Zhuo's perverse actions very much, and vowed to kill Dong Zhuo himself.One day, Wu Fu came to see Dong Zhuo with a saber hidden in his body.After the conversation, Wu Fu bid farewell and left.Dong Zhuo got up and went out to see them off, patted Wu Fu's back lightly with his hands, showing an extremely cordial look.Seeing the opportunity, Wu Fu suddenly drew out his saber and stabbed Dong Zhuo.Because of his eagerness to kill, he used too much force, so he missed and missed the vital point.Dong Zhuo was frightened, he fought back with all his strength in a hurry, and urgently called on the guards to help him, so he was out of danger.During the struggle with the guards, Wu Fu was stabbed to death by random swords because he was outnumbered.Afterwards, Dong Zhuo scolded Wu Fu for harboring evil intentions and not being kind.

In April of the third year of Chuping (192), Situ Wangyun, Shang Shupu archer Sun Rui, and Dong Zhuo's confidant Lu Bu conspired to kill Dong Zhuo.Before that, Wang Yun discussed the killing of Dong Zhuo with Huang Wan, the school captain of Sili, Zheng Gongye, the Shangshu, and Sun Rui, the Jinwu scholar, and others.

Wang Yun, Shi Sun Rui, and Yang Zan once again secretly discussed the abolition of Dong Zhuo in the name of going on stage to worship gods.Shi Sunrui said: "Since the end of last year, the sun has not shined and the rain has been continuous for more than 60 days. We should end this period that is unfavorable to the country and the people as soon as possible. Now, the timing is good, and we can take advantage of the boiling of the world." , Take the initiative to take measures to eliminate the culprit!"

The scholar Sun Rui intended to remind Wang Yunke to get rid of Dong Zhuo by taking advantage of the right time, place and people.Wang Yun agrees with Shi Sun Rui's opinion, but considering that Dong Zhuo is usually heavily guarded and he is extremely powerful, if careful measures are not taken, it may not be easy to win.Therefore, Wang Yun sought out Dong Zhuo's confidant Lu Bu as an internal response.

But Lu Bu was young and brave, with superior force.At first, Dong Zhuo loved and trusted him deeply, accepted him as his adopted son, and promoted him to be a captain of cavalry.Later, Dong Zhuo moved Lu Bu to be a general of Zhonglang and made him Marquis of Duting.Dong Zhuo regarded Lu Bu as his personal bodyguard.No matter where Dong Zhuo went, Lu Bu was always inseparable, responsible for protecting Dong Zhuo's life.

Once, Lv Bu accidentally offended Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was furious, he pulled out his sword and halberd and threw it at Lv Bu. Fortunately, Lv Bu was spared.At that time, Lu Bu didn't directly contradict Dong Zhuo, but immediately apologized to him, Dong Zhuo didn't pursue it anymore, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all in the future. [

However, Lu Bu harbored selfish hatred ever since. Although Diao Chan was married to Wei Yan, the flirtatious Lu Bu had an affair with Dong Zhuo's maid, and he was very disturbed.Wang Yun told Lu Bu of his plan to kill Dong Zhuo, and asked him to act as an internal response.At first, Lu Bu disagreed, and he said, "However (he and I) are like father and son!" Wang Yun enlightened, "Your surname is Lu, and his surname is Dong, and they are not blood relatives. Besides, Dong Zhuo is now punished by everyone. Do you still recognize him as your father? When he threw knives and halberds at you, did he treat you as his son?" However, this Lu Bu was also a person with a cold nature, and even killed his adoptive father Ding before. The original Ding Jianyang's criminal record, at this time under the urging of Wang Yun, Lu Bu finally followed the steps and agreed.

When everything was ready, just as the emperor was recovering from a serious illness, the ministers of court, Chinese and military all gathered in the Weiyang Hall to congratulate the emperor on his recovery.Taking this opportunity, Lv Bu arranged in advance for Li Su, the cavalry captain of the same county, and others to lead more than a dozen personal soldiers, put on guards' attire, and hide on both sides of the side gate of the palace.As soon as Dong Zhuo arrived at the side door, he was attacked by Li Su and others.Dong Zhuo was terrified and called Lü Bu for help.Lv Bu sat upright, and said loudly, "We are playing an imperial edict to punish the rebels and thieves, you deserve to die!" Although Dong Zhuo fought hard in despair, it was of no avail.

After Dong Zhuo was killed, the court rejoiced.Dong Zhuo's deeds of harming the country and the people have aroused the extreme hatred of the people all over the world. The eradication of Dong Zhuo not only conforms to the trend of the times, but also conforms to the hearts of the people of the world.Its significance lies not only in the murder of Dong Zhuo, a treacherous official of the country, but also profoundly affected the historical process of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.Situ Wangyun won the victory in the struggle to eradicate Dong Zhuo and the praise of the world with his sincerity to the court and his righteousness.After Dong Zhuo was killed, Wang Yun "recorded the minister's affairs, took charge of the government, and sent Zhang Zhong to comfort Shandong".

As the chief hero in killing the national traitors, Wang Yun naturally cannot do without the court's reward and the praise of the people.As a result, Wang Yun's attitude began to change, and he seemed to be a little smug: "Even Dong Zhuo, a great traitor like Dong Zhuo, died under my hands, so what else should I be afraid of?" , don't care, even take credit for it. "And at the meeting, every time there is a lack of gentleness, the staff is upright and prudent, and the expedient measures are not followed, so the subordinates are not attached to it." Whenever the officials gather, Wang Yun seldom has the same heart-to-heart with everyone as before. Discuss expedient measures together, but sit upright with a happy face.Slowly, the officials no longer respected and supported him as before.

After Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun was unusual and extremely careless in how to arrange and deal with his old ministry, and this was the most important and direct reason for Wang Yun's final demise.

He first wanted to pardon all Dong Zhuo's subordinates, but then he explained to the officials: "At first, they were innocent, but they couldn't help themselves and followed Dong Zhuo, so they had to obey Dong Zhuo's order and made a mistake. Now if they suddenly Adding the crime of treason and specifically pardoning them may make them suspicious and fearful, and they cannot bear it psychologically. Therefore, pardoning their sins is not the best way to make them feel at ease, it is better to let them bear the punishment."

However, Liangzhou soldiers are Dong Zhuo's direct line troops, with strong combat effectiveness and the most loyal to Dong Zhuo.After Dong Zhuo's death, how to deal with Liangzhou soldiers is a major issue related to Wang Yun himself and the Eastern Han regime.Wang Yun attempted to deprive the military power of the generals of Liangzhou soldiers, ban all Liangzhou soldiers, and planned to use the Kwantung soldiers to control them.But later someone said to Wang Yun: "The Liangzhou soldiers have always been afraid of Yuan Shao and the Kwantung soldiers. Now, if the Kwantung soldiers are sent to disband them, everyone in Liangzhou will worry about their lives. This will easily cause mutiny and chaos. It is better Appoint Huangfusong (character Yizhen) as the general to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Liangzhou army, and let him stay there for a long time in order to appease the morale of the army." Wang Yun resolutely objected: "This is absolutely impossible. The Kwantung soldiers are volunteers against Dong Zhuo. We are on the same route, now that Dong Zhuo is dead, if we continue to garrison them in dangerous places, although Liangzhou soldiers have been appeased, the Kwantung soldiers will suspect that we do not take them seriously."

When the people of Liangzhou heard the news that Wang Yun wanted to disband the Liangzhou soldiers, they spread rumors everywhere that Wang Yun wanted to kill all the people in Liangzhou.The generals of Liangzhou soldiers were frightened at first, and they were deeply worried about their future. When they learned that Wang Yun was going to deprive them of their military power and disband Liangzhou soldiers, they panicked even more.

At this time, Dong Zhuo was killed, Niu Fu was dead, and Wang Yun liquidated Dong Zhuo's remaining party.At that time, Li Jue, Guo Si and others were worried and planned to flee separately. Jia Xu came forward to stop them and said: "I heard that Chang'an City is discussing to kill all Liangzhou people, and your Excellencies abandon the subordinates and go alone. A pavilion chief can catch you. Why don’t you lead your troops to the west, gather soldiers along the way, and then attack Chang’an to avenge Dong Gong. It's not too late to escape." This plan was adopted by everyone.The desperate Liangzhou soldiers thought: Anyway, it is better to die happily than to die.So they quickly summoned the army, ready to fight against the odds.

Then Li Jue, Guo Si and others gathered all Liangzhou soldiers and swore to march to the capital Chang'an.So Li Jue and others spread rumors that "Wang Yun wants to cleanse the people here", saying everywhere: "If the court does not pardon us, we should fight to the death. If we conquer Chang'an, we can gain the world; if we can't, we will rob Sansuke Women’s belongings can be saved by returning to their hometown in the west.” His subordinates responded one after another, so they formed an alliance with Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others, and led thousands of troops to attack Chang’an day and night.As far as the city of Chang'an, more than [-] people have gathered.

When Wang Yun heard about it, he sent Dong Zhuo's former generals Hu Zhen and Xu Rong to attack Li Jue and Guo Si at Xinfeng.As a result, Xu Rong died in battle, and Hu Zhen led his troops to surrender.Li Jue, Fan Chou, Li Meng and others besieged Chang'an City, but were unable to attack because of the city's strong defenses.Later, the rebel soldiers in the city led the Liangzhou army into the city and started street fighting with the guard Lv Bu. Lv Bu was defeated and fled with only a hundred horsemen.Li Jue and others plundered and plundered. More than ten thousand officials and civilians died, and the corpses piled up all over the road.Taichang Zhongfo, Dahonghe Zhou Huan, Chengmen School Captain Cui Lie, Yueqi School Captain Wang Qi, etc. were killed.

When Lu Bu hurriedly led his troops to flee, he stopped at Qingsuo Gate and called Wang Yun to escape with him.Wang Yun flatly refused, and said to Lu Bu: "If the ancestors of the Son of Heaven have spirits in the sky, and can bless the country and keep our country safe, I will be satisfied. If this wish cannot be fulfilled, I am willing to sacrifice my life. To serve the imperial court with death. The emperor is young and young, so he can only rely on us to assist him. If the country suffers such a disaster, if I abandon the emperor and just run for my own life, I really can't bear it. Besides, as a prime minister, not only can I not make The matter of national security has led to the rebellion of the rebels. I have a great responsibility! After you leave the city, please encourage the heroes of the Kanto region, and always think of the emperor!" After finishing speaking, he supported Emperor Xian and fled to the Xuanping tower.

Li Jue and Guo Si chased after Xuanping's gate, kowtowed and worshiped.Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty boldly asked: "What are you planning to do in order to disrupt the capital?" Li Jue replied: "Dong Taishi was loyal to His Majesty, but he was killed for some reason. We just want to seek justice for Taishi. We dare not rebel. After the murderer is captured and executed, we are willing to accept the trial." Without saying a word, Wang Yun paid the last royal gift to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and then walked down the tower with the soldiers. Wang Yun executed.

Afterwards, Li Jue and others marched to Nangong Yemen to threaten Emperor Xian, and made Li Jue General Yangwu, Guo Si General Yanglie, and Fan Chou General Zhonglang.Li Jue also killed Sidi Xiaowei Huang Wan, Zuo Fengyi, Song Yi, You Fufeng Wang Hong and others.For a time, there was a bloody storm in the capital, and the government and the people were in chaos.

In September of the third year of Chuping (192), Li Jue was enfeoffed as General Chaqi, Kaifu, Lieutenant of Lingsili, Jiajie, Marquis of Chiyang, Guo Si as General Empress, Marquis of Meiyang, and Fan Chou as General You, Marquis of Wannian.Zhang Ji was granted the title of General Zhendong and Marquis of Pingyang, and he went out to station in Hongnong.Take Jia Xu as Zuo Fengyi.Since then, Chang'an and the government have been in the hands of Li Jue and Guo Si!
