The big man is on the run

Chapter 19

"Your Majesty summons the servants to see Huangfu Li."

In the Taiwan Pavilion, the mixed offices of various institutions of the Han Dynasty, which were impossible to appear in the past, have appeared so logically today.

Hearing that Huangfu Li was summoned, most people didn't respond. Huangfu Li, who was in his thirties, greeted his immediate superior, Guang Lu Xun Deng Yuan, and went to the palace to see him.

Huangmencheng Yang Xiu has never been able to sit still, he turned sideways, and to his new colleague who was busy working on the desk next to him, Huangmen asked from Chengfa: "My brother Xiaozhi, do you know why brother Huangfu was arrested?" Recruited into the palace?"

Although the two were also small officials with a rank of three hundred stones, Fazheng put down the brush hanging in his hand, stopped working and turned to look at Yang Xiu.

There is no way. First, he is new here, and he has not been here for a few days.Second, Yang Xiu's father is Taiwei Lushang Shushi Yang Biao, the No. 1 under the emperor, and the actual host of the Han court.

Besides, in Liu Yi's perception, Fazheng is an SSR on the same level as Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia.

However, back to the reality, Fazheng, a boy under the age of 20, can only be regarded as a young man who barely meets the conditions for being an official in the Han Empire, a court that has begun to pay attention to family background.

This kind of scholar has to start from the lowest level of the central government to become an official, only a little higher than the official.

And Fazheng and Yang Xiu, two young people who have just entered the officialdom, work together under the leadership of Zhong Yao, the servant of Huangmen (ranked six hundred stones), and naturally have some trivial superficial friendship.

Of course, for Meng Da, a young man who still had some reputation in history, Liu Yi was not left behind, and was stuffed into the government.

Probably because his grandpa's reputation was really bad, so he was only arranged by the bigwigs of the center to be a Shangshu Lingshi with a rank of two hundred stones.Meng Da, Yang Xiu, and Fazheng belong to the Shaofu of Jiuqing, but they belong to different departments.

"I'm not so sure either."

Facing Yang Xiu, a legitimate son of the surname Zhong, it would be a lie for ordinary scholars to say that they are not envious.

Nonsense, your colleague's father is a high-ranking official (San Gong, rank ten thousand stones), and your father is an ordinary official (rank six hundred stones), can you not envy?

But Fazheng recalled the confrontation with Jia Xu when he went to Dong Chengying in disguise with His Majesty yesterday, but he couldn't help feeling a little proud, my name is Jane in the heart of the emperor!
You have a good father, I have an emperor, and we all have a bright future.

"Oh, I thought Brother Xiaozhi would know something."

Yang Xiu didn't take it seriously either, and turned his head to pretend to look at the bamboo slips.

Fazheng's heart trembled slightly, this Yang Xiuduan was so smart, maybe he saw something.

In other words, Fazheng certainly knew why Huangfu Li was summoned by the emperor. Jia Xu had no choice but to write a letter to his fellow villager and former colleague Zhang Ji yesterday.

The content of this letter is to persuade Zhang Ji to enter Beijing and coordinate with Li Jue and Guo Si on the eastward relocation of the imperial court. .

Zhang Ji, who was driven out of the power center by the joint efforts of Li Jue and Guo Si before, watched Li Jue and Guo Si get promoted and made a fortune in Shan County, and was extremely reconciled to envy, and always wanted to return to the power center.As long as he receives this letter from Jia Xu and the hint from the court, he will definitely come to Chang'an as a third-party coordinator.

As for why the Yezhe Pushe Huangfu Li was summoned, it was naturally because the Yezhe Pushe was originally responsible for the delivery of official documents and missions of the court, and Huangfu Li was the son of the famous general Huangfusong, a reliable candidate that the emperor could absolutely trust.

But now that the city defense of Chang'an City is controlled by the generals of Xiliang, and after the Nanwu incident, it is difficult to leave the city without an official official document from the imperial court, so Huangfu Li is the most suitable person to send a letter to Zhang Ji.

Now the imperial court has been infiltrated into a sieve by the generals of Liangzhou, and the few servants (ranking two thousand stones) who preside over the daily work of the Shaofu are the most important central institutions today.

On the surface, those who belonged to the Liangzhou generals included Zhong Zong who belonged to Yang Ding's faction, and Hu Miao who belonged to Li Jue's faction.

Hu Miao, who was also working in Taige, was keenly aware of something, walked out of Taige, and explained something to Huben Lang Wang Chang who was on duty outside before returning.

But Hu Benlang Wang Chang reported back and forth after finding out that Huangfu Li had already rode out of the city on horseback.

"Servant, Huangfu Li has already left the city."

Hu Miao frowned: "So fast? What did the emperor tell him?"

"I don't know." Wang Chang replied in a low voice: "There are no people from us in the hall, His Majesty has pushed everyone away, and only Wang Yue is guarding the door."

"Catch up, no matter what he does, just kill him!"

"This..." Wang Chang showed hesitation.

"Go! General Li, I have my own explanation, and your benefits are indispensable!"

Fazheng, who was pretending to go to the toilet, was hiding under the corridor pillar. Seeing the servant Hu Miao's complexion changed drastically, Huben Lang Wang Chang first refused, and then left with his hands.

"Too bad. I hope Huangfu Li can run faster."

Fazheng hid behind the pillar, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

Besides, Huangfu Li was ordered by the emperor and knew that this letter was the key to breaking the situation. Huangfu Li rode on his family BMW with serious documents, passed through the Guo Si defense area, and hurried out of the city all the way to the east.

From Chang'an to Shan County, along the Weishui River and the Yellow River all the way to the east, it takes a full [-] miles to run.

Even if Huangfu Li has been running all the time, it will take a day and a night to get there.

"Huh! Huh!"

The sound of arrows whistled in his ears, and Huangfu Li leaned over the horse and tried his best to control it.

In order to lighten the burden on the war horse and run faster and more easily, he didn't wear armor at all, and only carried a handful of short soldiers on his body.

At this time, three horsemen came galloping, and shot arrows on their horses behind Huangfu Li. Huangfu Li had nowhere to hide on the official road.

"Tuk!"

The shaft of the Spike Arrow trembled unceasingly, and it went straight into the horse's leg, knocking Huangfu Li under the horse.

Huangfu Li fell from the high-speed galloping horse, and Huangfu Li was thrown to pieces.

However, after all, he was the man who participated in the flattening of the Yellow Turban with his uncle Huangfusong.

Huangfu Li ignored the grass clippings and blood stains in the corners of his eyes, drew out the knife around his waist, and arched his body like a lone wolf about to pounce.

The three chasing soldiers dismounted one after another, put the sweaty Xiliang army horse on the official road, and surrounded Huangfu Li with weapons in their hands.

"I recognize you, did Li Jue send you here?"

Huben Lang Wang Chang remained silent, and beside him were two companions who were sent to assist but were actually monitoring.

Huangfu Li was silent for a while, and said through gritted teeth: "The Huangfu family has been greatly favored by the country, and I am often under the emperor's tent. Li Jue is in chaos, the king humiliates the ministers to death, I will be loyal to the country, if today I am really betrayed by you lackeys Kill, that is the death of me."

The three of them were not moved by his words, just when Huangfu Li was about to fight to the death, Wang Chang's saber moved first.

"Ah~ ah!"

Wang Chang cut the carotid artery of the unsuspecting companion with a fierce knife, while Huangfu Li threw himself at the other person without any hesitation at all.

The two swords sparked for a while, without the help of their companion, he was no match for Huangfu Li, who was born in the general family.

Blood stained the clothes of Huangfu Li and Wang Chang red. Wang Chang looked at Huangfu Li in front of him, without saying anything, and slashed his shoulder with a knife.

Wang Chang's face was full of pride, and he poked his neck and sneered: "Is your Huangfu Li the only Hanchen in the world? My Wang family has also been favored by the country for a long time!"
