Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 3 Luoyang
"He Liuhun really said that?"

When Sun Teng traveled to Xihe County, the seat of Fenzhou, Er Zhuzhao had actually learned the news of Luoyang, and followed his cousin Murong Shaozong's suggestion to lead Qingqi to seize Jinyang.

"If the remaining two sons of Tianzhu are all young, they are not good enough to be important. After counting Tianzhu's family members, only the governor is brave and can continue the great cause. Please don't hesitate to ask the governor of Gaojin Prefecture."

Sun Teng spoke sincerely.

"He Liuhun is a loyal man, he treats me sincerely, and the omen will never fail."

Er Zhuzhao was so passionate that he completely forgot Er Zhurong's previous warning.

Luoyang city.

Yuan Ziyou was in great chaos. A few days ago, Erzhu Rong's brother escaped from Luoyang. Erzhu Shilong dispatched more than a thousand cavalry to the city of Luoyang to cry for his injustice and demand Er Zhurong's body.

Yuan Ziyou sent his generals and led ten thousand people out of the city to expel them, but they were defeated.

It is difficult for Erzhu Shilong alone to deal with it. When Erzhu Zhao of Fenzhou, Erzhu Tianguang of Guanzhong, Erzhu Zhongyuan of Xuzhou and others arrive together, how can they resist.

As a last resort, Yuan Ziyou appointed the prince born to Erzhu's daughter Erzhu Ying'e as the prince, hoping to ease the conflict between them:

Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it.

I have issued the decree of amnesty, why don't you gangsters give up, look, the crown prince is the blood of your Erzhu family, I really won't liquidate you.

However, Yuan Ziyou's script is well written, so he meets Erzhu's people who like to play freely.

It was not without good news that Er Zhurong's general, He Basheng from Wuchuan, who once guarded Zhongshan, was very prestigious among the people in Beizhen, and he was also suspected of being under the same suspicion as Gao Huan, and was transferred to Luoyang for surveillance.

After Er Zhurong's death, He Basheng did not flee, but chose to attach himself to Yuan Ziyou.

But that's all. Next, news from all sides came one after another, causing Yuan Ziyou to fall into panic.

Er Zhuzhao occupies Jinyang, inherits the soldiers and horses left behind, and threatens to go south to avenge Er Zhurong.

On October [-]th, because the river bridge was destroyed, Erzhu Shilong crossed the river and withdrew to the eldest son (Changzhi), passing through Jianzhou (Gaodu Town, Jincheng). Because Jianzhou Governor Lu Xizhi refused to open the city, Erzhu Shilong slaughtered all the people in the city, unique Lu Xizhi fled early before the city was broken.

Soon Erzhu Zhao led his troops to the south and joined Erzhu Shilong and the eldest son of Erzhu Yusheng, the governor of Yinzhou (East Longyao, Hebei).

Erzhu Tianguang, who was splitting troops with Jingzhou (Jingchuan, Gansu) Governor He Bayue to quell the chaos, learned of Er Zhurong's death, and immediately sent troops to gather Guanzhong troops in Jingzhou to prepare to send troops to Luoyang.

On October [-]th, the eldest son of the Erzhu clan elected Erzhu Zhao, who succeeded the Jinyang army, as the leader, respected the elder Guang Wang Yuanye as the emperor, and everyone in the Erzhu clan received rewards.

On the fifth day of November, Zhu Zhongyuan, governor of Xuzhou, raised troops to attack Xiyanzhou (Cao County, Shandong).

Yuan Ziyou finally realized that there was no possibility of reconciliation between himself and the Erzhu family. Yuan Ziyou's old officials at the Fan residence heard that Er Zhurong had been killed, so they came to Luoyang to serve.

But Gao Gan's younger brother, Gao Ang, was famous for his bravery. Er Zhurong was jealous of him, so he ordered people to trap and imprison him in Jinyang.

After Er Zhurong's death, the brothers Gao Gan and Gao Ang met each other. Yuan Ziyou sent the Gao brothers back to Hebei to recruit righteous soldiers to serve as king.

He also issued an edict to his confidant general Zheng Xianhu and Xingtai Yang Yu to lead the troops to Huatai (Huaxian County, Henan Province) to conquer Erzhu Zhongyuan.

Later, he ordered He Basheng to lead the trilogy to support Zheng Xianhu.

What Yuan Ziyou didn't expect was that Zheng Xianhu, as a loyalist of the imperial party, didn't trust He Basheng, Er Zhurong's former general at all.

He Basheng marched all the way to the sliding platform, but Zheng Xianhu did not allow his troops to enter the city to rest, so He Basheng was defeated by Erzhu Zhongyuan.

He Basheng had no choice but to surrender to Erzhu Zhongyuan and return to Erzhu's command.

In this regard, He Basheng, who ranks above Gao Huan, He Bayue, and Hou Jing from Huaishuo, and can be called the number one general under Er Zhurong's command, no longer has the prestige he once had.

eldest son city.

Sun Teng was ordered to go on an envoy again.

"I would like to report to the General, there is a rebellion by the barbarians in Jinzhou. Governor Gao is busy suppressing the rebellion. He cannot go south to avenge Tianzhu. Please forgive me. Governor Gao has something to say. When the civil disturbance is settled, he will definitely send troops to the General."

After supporting Yuan Ye, Erzhuzhao was named a general, and everyone in the Erzhu family was recognized as the leader. It was a time when he was full of self-satisfaction. Now that Gao Huan rejected his proposal to jointly send troops to the south, although he was angry, he was not angry. hold no grudges:
"Go back and tell He Liuhun, I had a feeling in my dream that this battle must be won. The reason why I invited him to send troops is just to thank him for his loyalty and to share his credit. Since he wants to put down the chaos, I won't force him anymore. .”

Sun Teng quickly thanked him.

Maybe it was a blessing.

On the first day of December, when Er Zhuzhao led his army to the north bank of the Yellow River, the water was not as deep as the belly of a horse, so Er Zhuzhao quickly led Qingqi across the river.

On the third day of December, there was a strong wind and sand and rocks filled the sky. Er Zhuzhao’s cavalry arrived outside the gate of Luoyang Palace at night, only to be discovered by the imperial army. Er Zhuzhao led the troops into the palace calmly.

"Your Highness, good news, good news, the general has entered the palace, the emperor, no, Yuan Ziyou has been captured by the general."

Countless palace people flocked to the Queen's bedroom to report to Queen Er Zhu Ying'e who had been under house arrest for a long time.

Er Zhu Ying'e was overjoyed when she heard the news.

Ever since she learned that her father and younger brother were killed by Yuan Ziyou, she hated her to the bone, and every day she looked forward to her family's revenge in Beijing.

She stretched out her finger and lightly touched the fleshy cheek of the baby in her arms, her eyes were full of love:
"Son, you are going to be emperor."

After a while, there was a rustling sound of nail plates, and Er Zhu Ying'e looked out the door, and it was indeed Er Zhu Zhao leading the people.

Don't wait for Erzhu Ying'e to greet her family.

Er Zhuzhao grabbed the baby in his arms.

The baby was awakened, crying loudly.

Seeing Er Zhu Zhao's ferocious face, Er Zhu Ying'e panicked:
"What are you going to do, give me the child quickly, give me the child back!"

Er Zhuzhao shouted sharply:
"Leave this evil seed, and wait for him to avenge his father?"

"No, don't, I won't let him be the emperor, I just keep him by my side, I won't tell him who his father is, please, return the child to me quickly."

Er Zhuzhao turned a deaf ear, he lifted the baby over his head and threw it down hard.

"what!"

Er Zhu Ying'e's screams pierced the dome, seeing her son being thrown to the ground, even crying so weakly, Er Zhu Ying'e's face was distorted, like a madman, constantly hitting the block of Er Zhu Zhao's subordinates, but she couldn't get close.

"No, don't hurt my child, please, let my child go, I am my father's daughter, I am the daughter of Taiyuan Wang Er Zhurong, you can't hurt my child."

Although Erzhu Ying'e married Emperor Xiaoming Yuanxu and Yuan Ziyou successively, she was not very old, only 16 years old.

When Er Zhurong was alive, relying on her power, she acted without any scruples, and even said in a fit of anger: "The emperor was originally established by my family. Back then, my father could have established himself as the emperor. Even now, my father can abolish the emperor and stand on his own."

Her father and brother were killed, and she even thought that her natal relatives would abandon Yuan Ziyou and support a prince with Erzhu's blood.

She never thought that her natal family, whom she had been thinking about day and night, would kill her child as soon as they entered the palace.

How could Er Zhu Ying'e accept this gap.

"General Tianzhu was born because of this evil, and was trapped and killed by Yuan Ziyou. Since you are Tianzhu's daughter, you should avenge Tianzhu."

After all, Er Zhuzhao ordered the baby to be thrown to death.

Ignoring Er Zhu Ying'e who was crying behind her, I just gave a few instructions to the palace people in the bedroom:

"Be optimistic about Ying'e, don't let her seek death."

He directly led his confidant away.

Erzhu Ying'e, who was left crying dry, with a dull expression, muttered to herself:

"My child, my child"

Inside and outside the palace city of Luoyang, there were looting soldiers everywhere, and the fire illuminated the whole Luoyang.

"General, now that Yuan Ziyou has been captured, the foreign enemies have gone, and although the Taifu (Er Zhu Shilong) and others regard the general as the leader, they are only submitting to the general's force and not being sincere."

Erzhu's Xiurong fellow Hun Liu Gui found an opportunity to speak up.

Er Zhuzhao was also worried about this:

"I don't know how Guizhen can teach me?"

"The Grand Tutor has been in Luoyang for a long time, but he can't protect the Tianzhu Great General comprehensively. Why don't the Great General use this as an excuse to attack and frighten his people. No matter how lenient he is, the Grand Tutor will definitely succumb."

Liu Gui suggested.

Er Zhuzhao was delighted when he heard the words:

"Guizhen treats me loyally, she is an honest person, I need Guizhen's help, so why worry about the family's unrest!"

So when Erzhu Shilong entered the palace to meet him, Er Zhuzhao became violent, drew out his sword and shouted angrily:
"Teacher, you were ordered by Tianzhu to stay in Luoyang and spread your eyes and ears. You should be well informed, but when General Tianzhu was ambushed and killed in the Mingguang Palace, where are you, Zhu Shilong!"

Er Zhu Shilong was depressed: I reminded General Tianzhu several times, what can he do if he doesn’t listen to me, you Er Zhu Zhao just entered Luoyang, so you use me to stand out, forgetting who elected you as the leader and who helped you enter Luoyang !
But now being pointed at by Jian Feng, Er Zhu Shilong didn't dare to argue, and quickly knelt down to admit his mistake.

Seeing that he was subdued, Er Zhuzhao withdrew his sword and said arrogantly.

"Hmph! Let me save your life today, and you must not be slack in your actions in the future."

Erzhu Shilong thanked him, but he hid resentment in his heart.

Among the crowd behind Er Zhuzhao, Liu Gui's mouth was lightly raised, with a playful expression, hidden in the corner.

Liu Gui is not just a beautiful person, he is also Gao Huan's childhood friend.

Gao Huan abandoned Ge Rong and went to Er Zhurong. It was recommended by Liu Gui that Er Zhurong summoned him to show his talents and was finally reused.

However, after Gao Huan left herds in Jinzhou, he amassed money wantonly, and handed over all the property he got to Liu Gui, and asked him to bribe Er Zhurong's cronies for himself. Jinzhou commanded troops and horses.

When Sun Teng was envoy to the eldest son, he conspired with Liu Gui. Today, Liu Gui's suggestion is a generous gift from Gao Huan to Er Zhuzhao.

However, Er Zhu Zhao never imagined that besides Gao Huan, Yuan Ziyou also prepared a big gift for Er Zhu Zhao before he went south.

In order to gather forces against the Erzhu clan, the dignified emperor actually issued an edict to the Hexi bandit commander, ordering him to attack Beixiu Rong, the ancestral land of the Erzhu clan, in order to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

　There is no record of Erzhu Ying'e's birth year, but she gave birth in 530, and Gao Yang wanted to do something wrong in 559. It is guessed that she was not very old when she gave birth. After all, it is normal to marry at the age of eleven or two in this era.
