Chapter 562
As a wise and powerful Xiangguo, he cannot bear the stain, so the stain can only be carried by other people and the emperor himself.

One day later, on the eighth day of May, Empress Dowager Guo issued a decree, claiming that Cao Mao was established because of his "good books and articles, hoping to make money", and did not think that "the temperament is violent, and the sun and the moon are very good", even her The queen mother couldn't control it anymore, so she took the initiative to discuss with Xiangguo about the abolition of the establishment. Dozens of times he wanted to abolish Cao Mao. When Cao Mao learned about it, he even bribed the court lady to poison the queen mother. After the incident was revealed, Cao Mao personally led troops into the West Palace to kill the queen mother. He escaped from Dongyemen in the midst of soldiers and was killed by the rebels.

"This son is rebellious and immoral, and he is in great trouble... It is appropriate to bury him with civil rites, so that people inside and outside know what he is doing. He also wrote the king's scriptures, and there is no sign of rebellion. His collection of scriptures and his family members are all Yiting Lieutenant!"

Cao Mao's reign title was deprived, and during his reign, the reign title was changed to a certain year of Gaogui Xianggong.

The empress dowager's decree like a puppet put all the blame on the emperor himself.

Shangshu Wang Jing was arrested by Ting Wei because he did not participate in the informant.

On the day when he was arrested, Wang Jing apologized to his mother, but her mother's face remained unchanged, and she responded with a smile: "Everyone who is not dead is afraid that he will not be able to find his place. If you want to live together, why do you hate it?"

Man Changwu guarded the gate of Changhe, blocked Sima Qian and Wang Xian, and framed Wang Xian. Sima Zhao hated him deeply and tortured him to death. His father Man Wei was also implicated and demoted to a commoner.

After the queen mother's decree was issued, Taiwei Gaorou, Taichang Wangxiang, and Shangshu Youpu shot Wang Guan and said: Although the emperor has a lack of virtue, he can be buried with royal rites to show the kindness of the prime minister.

Sima Zhao followed his words.

The news that the emperor was murdered in the street flew out of Luoyang City like wings, flying to the southeast and northwest.

The speed was far beyond Sima Zhao's imagination.

When the funeral was held, Sima Zhao was crying so hard that he couldn't even stand up.

"Xiangguo, Mr. Chen returned to Luo!" The servants came to report.

Sima Zhao jumped up from the ground at once, "Can you bring troops and horses?"

"Only a dozen riders."

Sima Zhao sat back on the ground and howled.

The person he was most afraid of seeing at this time was Chen Tai.

That day in Baishui, I had an appointment with Chen Tai.

Your Sima family can usurp Cao Wei, but you must give the emperor a face.

Now that the emperor was killed in the street, the world was full of uproar, and the Sima family once again deceived Chen Tai's feelings.

Not long after, Chen Tai rushed over, the crying in the mourning hall stopped abruptly, everyone looked at Chen Tai in a daze, especially Jia Chong, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

In fact, Chen Tai didn't want to come at all, and even thought of breaking with Sima Zhao.

But Chen Tai's uncle Shangshu Xunyi wrote letters in person, and other gentry in Yingchuan also wrote to persuade Chen Tai.

The sons and nephews of the Chen family, who had been entrusted with enfeoffment, kept persuading Chen Tai inside and out, so he had to rush back to Luoyang.

Seeing the emperor's coffin and the coffin of "Wei Gaogui Township Lord", Chen Tai couldn't help feeling sad, and knelt down on his knees, crying, "Your Majesty, I'm late!"

This "Your Majesty" sounded like a slap in the face of all the ministers.

But no one dared to reprimand him.

The rise of the gentry was due to the "Nine Ranks of Officials" proposed by Chen Qun, the father of Chen Tai.

And Chen Tai seemed to be the leader of the noble clan in the world.

Sima Zhao also cried, "Uncle Xuan, what happened today is like me?"

Chen Tai said bitterly: "Jia Chong and the Yiqi tribe are the only ones who have been killed. I can thank the world for a little bit!"

Among the crowd, Jia Chong felt a "thump" in his heart, and his knees kept trembling.

At this time, Sima Zhao's gaze also drifted over, sweeping back and forth across his face.

Jia Chong felt that his head stretched out and then retracted under the butcher's knife, it was chilly, and his back was covered with cold sweat.

Pei Xiu, Xun Xu and others nearby cast gloating glances and moved their bodies intentionally or unintentionally so that Jia Chong could be more directly exposed to the knife-like gazes of Sima Zhao and Chen Tai.

If Chen Tai wanted to kill Jia Chong, the gentry would of course give him face, and Sima Zhao would probably give him this face as well.

But Jia Chong is a man who has seen big winds and waves, and knows that he must not be cowardly at this time. If he begs for mercy, Sima Zhao will look down on him, a dog, he will kill him if he says he will.

If he defended himself, he would only attract more hatred, and he had no choice but to die under the turmoil of the crowd.

So only by keeping silent and carrying everything down, Sima Zhao will see his value.

After a long time, Sima Zhao's knife-like gaze moved away from Jia Chong's face, and the biggest crisis in Jia Chong's life also left him.

Sima Zhao shook his head, "Qing thinks about other things."

Chen Tai said: "How can we make Tai relapse and say something later?"

Needless to say, there is no need to say more about killing Jia Chong. Anyway, some blood must be seen today to make sense.

Sima Zhao's gaze wandered through the crowd, and suddenly landed on Cheng Ji who was watching the excitement.

Cheng Ji trembled all over.

Sima Zhao shouted coldly, "Come here, take Cheng Ji down!"

Soldiers outside the hall entered in response.

Cheng Ji never expected that this pot would fall on him. He is a member of the Sima family, and the two brothers are loyal. It is the time when they are hot in Luoyang City, "My lord, my lord, Cheng Ji is innocent. Ji is not guilty!"

As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall looked at him like a fool.

Jia Chong let out a long sigh of relief.

A few soldiers took out Chengji after three strikes, five divisions and two divisions.

Sima Zhao snorted coldly, "Cheng Ji murdered the king, a great treason, hacked to pieces, barbarian!"

"Ah!" Cheng Ji struggled heart-piercingly, but this guy was also stubborn. He already knew that Sima Zhao would kill him today, "Traitor, traitor! What is my crime? You made me kill the king! Traitor..."

The hall became silent again. Although everyone knew that it was the envoy of Sima Zhao, it was not good to say it so directly.

"It's you, Old Sima, who wants to usurp the throne and kill me instead! Traitor, traitor!" Cheng Ji simply gave up.

The armored man punched Cheng Ji's mouth several times, only to hear the sound of bones shattering, a mouthful of blood spewed out against his teeth, and Cheng Ji made a whining sound from his bloody mouth, as if he was roaring, until he was dragged away go out.

Sima Zhao looked at Chen Tai in embarrassment, "Uncle Xuan..."

Want to say something, but can't get it out.

Chen Tai was trembling with anger, his face turned pale, and then flushed again, and suddenly a mouthful of blood sprayed on Sima Zhao, "Xiangguo blamed me..."

The whole person fell down softly.

Not only Sima Zhao, but also Sima Yi was responsible for him. If Chen Tai hadn't persuaded Cao Shuang on behalf of the gentry back then, Cao Shuang might not have compromised.

All kinds of causes and consequences weighed on Chen Tai, and Chen Tai finally fell down...

"Uncle Xuan, Uncle Xuan!" Sima Zhao panicked and rushed to help Chen Tai, "How can you abandon me..."

……

In Luoyang City, thousands of soldiers went straight to get married.

As soon as he entered the door, he started killing, no one was left behind.

Knowing that he was abandoned by Sima Zhao, Cheng Lang climbed up to the roof, took off his clothes, and scolded Sima Zhao naked on the roof. He was shot and killed by random arrows.

Outside the city of Luoyang, the funeral of Mr. Gao Guixiang didn't even reach the king's ceremony. He got off the car several times without setting up a banner. There were very few courtiers who saw him off.

The people rushed to see him off, "It was the emperor who was killed the day before yesterday."

Or cover their faces and weep, overwhelmed with grief, or secretly curse the Sima family for their wickedness
