I received my adopted son in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 36 Escaping from the Devil's Claws... Failed

Chapter 36 Escaping from the Devil's Claws... Failed

The night is as cool as water and as dark as ink.

Sima Fang carefully took his family and property with him, and proceeded cautiously with anxiety and worry.At the same time, they were also told to keep their voices as low as possible.

As a Luoyang order, it is easy to get the rules of Luoyang patrol soldiers.A few days ago, he also bribed a senior from the upper east gate.

"Father, do I have to leave Luoyang?" The eldest son Sima Lang couldn't help asking in a low voice while leading the way ahead.

"Good morning..." Looking at the upper east gate not far ahead, Sima Fang sighed slightly, and said, "Boda, can't you see that this Luoyang will not be peaceful sooner or later?"

Hearing this, Sima Lang's handsome face couldn't help showing a hint of worry: "While Dong Zhuo is fighting for martial arts, he is unknown and hopeless, but he steals military power with thunderous force, taking what he wants, how can he not provoke public anger?"

"And then he abolished the emperor, imprisoned the concubine and Hongnong king, bullied the superior with power, and violated the taboo of the courtiers. All kinds of actions have made the situation tense..."

"That's right." Sima Fang also sighed quietly, and said, "If Dong Zhuo was just domineering and arrogant, the scholars would only dare to be angry and dare not speak out. However, last month he listened to the words of Zhou Wei, Wu Qiong, and Zheng Tai. Let the famous people in the court guard the four directions, so as to control the world."

"I don't know that those who are all scholars will agree with him?"

"I'm afraid that when these people arrive at the place, they will quickly regain power and echo each other from afar. At that time, spread the word to the four directions and raise troops on a large scale. In an instant, Luoyang will be clamoring and fighting, and the flames will rage!"

"Hmm...presumably at that time, Dong Zhuo will be angrily reprimanded in the proclamation for stealing and digging up the imperial tomb and abusing ghosts and gods. It's really too evil to steam the emperor's sky and pollute the earth with filth."

Just when the two were worried, a tired voice came from behind.

Some cynical.

A boy who looked to be eleven or twelve years old was restlessly lying on the bullock cart containing his family's belongings, and said to Sima Fang and Sima Lang, "Although Dong Zhuo did this in secret, you just need to pay attention to it. There will be nothing to hide."

As he spoke, he tossed it casually, and in his hand was a golden jade piece.

"Yi'er, be careful!" Sima Fang glanced back sternly, and said, "Tonight is the time when our family lives and dies, so don't make any trouble!"

Sima Yi curled his lips boredly, but he still replied casually: "My child understands."

Seeing that the second son obviously didn't listen to his words, Sima Fang's heart sank again, feeling that something ominous would happen tonight.

But the upper east gate is already ahead, so I can only temporarily suppress this worry and deal with it with all my energy.

"Lord Neishi, you're finally here..." Shi Zhang saw Sima Fang, his expression obviously relaxed, and said: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, my heart is frightened."

"The life-saving grace of a righteous man will never be forgotten."

Sima Fang bowed and saluted, the chief was obviously overwhelmed by the flattery, so he hurried to help.At this moment, Sima Fang had already taken out two gold cakes, and quickly stuffed them into Shi Chang's hands with the cover of his wide sleeves: "Thank you!"

Shi Chang looked stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed, and whispered to his subordinates to open the city gate: "Master Neishi, you are too polite, it is necessary to leave quickly."

Everything seems to be going well.

However, Sima Yi looked around the city with only a few lights on, and suddenly realized that something was wrong: there were a few traces of light that shouldn't appear in the dark gate of the city tower directly opposite.

The city gate slowly opened.

The light gradually became brighter, and Sima Yi suddenly stood up and shouted: "Father!..."

"What's going on here? How could there be lights outside the city gate?" Sima Fang also saw it at this time, and hurriedly looked at Shi Chang in front of him, but saw that he was panicked and dazed, apparently he didn't know what was going on.

Outside the city gate, metal weapons clanged and collided, and countless feet stepped on the stone pavement in the street, making a dull rattling sound, like a shower of rain.

Numerous torches illuminate the dark night.

Five hundred elite soldiers in full armor quickly rushed into the city and surrounded Sima Fang's family and the soldiers at the city gate.Changge's cool silhouette flickered in the lights, the sound of the bow and crossbow being wound up could be heard in the ears, and the sharp arrows were like the sharp teeth of a poisonous snake.

With just one order, Sima Fang's family of more than [-] people, as well as the city gate soldiers, would instantly turn into hedgehogs.

"Curfew in the middle of the night, where does Lord Neishi want to go?"

The crisp sound of horseshoes sounded, and Wu Qiong, the school captain of the city gate, slowly appeared.It's just that he didn't have a trace of complacency on his face, instead, surprise and fear flashed in his eyes.

"Wu, Captain Wu..." Sima Fang's pupils shrank suddenly, his face full of disbelief: "Why are you here?"

"Someone is the school captain of the city gate. It is his duty to guard the city gate of Luoyang. Isn't it normal to appear here?" Quickly retracting the strangeness in his eyes, Wu Qiong asked Sima Fang with a contemptuous look: "On the contrary, Mr. Neishi Violating the curfew and buying city soldiers to open the city gate without authorization, what crime should be!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Sima Fang's words, he waved his big hand and shouted: "Take it away, and put it in Tingwei's prison, and wait for the Taiwei to deal with it!"

"Father!"

Frightened, Sima Lang stepped forward to stop him, but was pushed aside by the soldiers.Sima Fang, who hadn't reacted yet, was dragged away by the wolf-like soldiers before he could even struggle...

Immediately, the surrounding soldiers raised their spears and collected their crossbows. Under the leadership of Wu Qiong, they neatly gathered up and marched towards the city.

A group of people suddenly appeared, except Wu Qiong who said a few words, then acted swiftly and with precise aim, and left quickly after capturing Sima Fang, revealing strangeness everywhere.

It doesn't look like a big man who strictly enforces the law, but like... a bandit who went down the mountain to snatch a bride.

So much so that Sima Fang seemed to have seen this too, and apart from the deep horror on his face, there was also a touch of incomprehensible astonishment.Sima Lang, Sima Yi and others froze in place, like weathered stone figurines.

"Husband!..." Guo Shi, who was holding Sima Kui, who was only three years old, watched her husband being dragged away, and she pulled Sima Lang's sleeve in a state of desperation: "Lang'er, think of a way to save your father... Your father has some old friends in court, you go and beg them, hurry up!"

"Mother, don't panic, don't mess up your position." Sima Lang got up from the ground, frowning: "It is a felony for me to escape late at night, not to mention that no one dares to intercede for my father. If the matter has not been exposed, we will Hastily telling others, is it not a trivial matter that makes a big deal, forcing the court to impose a strict punishment?"

"Also, what happened tonight..." Looking at the lights of the departing troops, he pondered for a long time before slowly commenting: "It's very strange."

"It's not just weird, it's just weird."

Sima Yi, who had calmed down, also sat on the bullock cart and mused: "First, I will leave Beijing secretly tonight, no one will know, but Wu Qiong has long been prepared and waits for the rabbit."

"Secondly, it is a felony to open the city gate without permission. In the past, when Emperor Guangwu returned late from hunting, he did not make the city gate open. According to the "Han Law", Wu Qiong has the right to behead us first, but this time only his father was arrested. , leave me where I am.”

"The third, and the most important point." He looked at Sima Lang and said with a strange expression, "Brother, did you see it too?"

"When he gave the order to arrest father, he didn't know whether it was intentional or not, he said that the matter should be handled by the Taiwei..."

Sima Lang nodded, his expression becoming more serious: "That is to say, the reason why he appeared here tonight is likely to be the order of the Taiwei."

"Taiwei?" Guo Shi was still worried, but seeing her eldest son and second son in danger, she felt a little more at ease: "Is that the frontier warrior, Dong Zhuo?"

"He, how did he know that we are going back to Hanoi tonight?"

"My son doesn't know..." Sima Lang shook his head in doubt, and said, "But my son knows that the matter has come to this point, only the Taiwei can save father's life."

"Then hurry up and ask Dong... Taiwei!"

"Mother..." Sima Lang said with a slumped face, "The Taiwei is one of the three princes, with a high position and authority. Now the child is only the son of a criminal minister, how can he see it?"

"Then, what should I do..."

At this time, Sima Lang looked at Sima Yi coldly, and said, "Second brother, since you know about the Taiwei's robbery and digging of the tomb, you must also know something else, right?"

Without waiting for Sima Yi to hesitate, he added: "Don't deny it, I know that whenever you encounter something you are interested in, you will try to find out."

The helpless Sima Yi could only spread his hands, and said, "Okay, I'll tell you who to go to tomorrow. But..." At this point, he looked tough again: "This matter is about my father's life, and my eldest brother must agree to go with me. !"

Seeing his younger brother's determined eyes like wolves stalking him, Sima Lang did not hesitate, nodded heavily and said: "Okay!"
