Chapter 396 Chang'an Rebellion ([-])

When did Dong Bi arrive in Zhongshan?

This is not only the answer that Gu Yong wants to know, but many people, even Guan Qiujian also want to know the answer.

Guanqiu Jian is from the Wenxi family, the second son of Gaoyang Township Hou Guanqiu Xing.

According to the rules of the ancients, the family is inherited by the eldest son. Of course, the eldest son must also be born of the main wife.Unfortunately, Guanqiu Jian was the second son, and he was also the second son of a concubine.In other words, from the day he was born, he was doomed not to inherit the family business.Either rely on the family, or start a new stove with the support of the family.

Wu Qiuxing is not a simple character.

Among the two generations of emperors, Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling, who were turbulent and undercurrents, the family was preserved.It may not sound like a big deal.But think about it carefully, how many things happened in these two generations of emperors?
The ban of the party, the chaos of the Yellow Turban...

Countless northern families were wiped out in this turmoil.As for the Guanqiu family, they still stand in the east of the river to this day, which is not a big deal.

At that time, as early as when Li Ru took over Anbu, he had already had a relationship with Guan Qiuxing.

As Dong Zhuo flourished in the Western Regions, instead of declining due to Dong Zhuo's death, it became more and more prosperous.Guan Qiuxing had a vague feeling that sooner or later, Dong Pi would definitely break out of the Western Regions and sit in Guanzhong.

The son of the family is not like an ordinary person.

They are loyal to the family first, and then to the court.

What is most beneficial to the family, then they will make a corresponding decision.Although Guan Qiuxing knew that Dong Bi was criticized by thousands of people from the Kanto gentry, how could Guan Qiuxing, who was also a warrior, care about this?
Since the second son, Guanqiu Jian, cannot inherit the ancestral business, let him start a career!

The aristocratic clans are not all fatuous and incompetent people. Most of the time, they see far more thoroughly than ordinary people.

At that time, Wuqiu Jian had no weak crown.

So in the name of studying, Guan Qiuxing secretly sent Guan Qiujian to Han'an City, where he studied under Liu Hong, an imperial scholar.

Who is Liu Hong?

In terms of seniority, he is the uncle of Liu Bian, the king of the Western Han Dynasty; in terms of knowledge, he is also a erudition of the past and the present, and even Dong Bi's nominal teacher.

From this point of view alone, Guanqiu Jian has been imprinted with the brand of the Dong family.

Since then, Guan Qiujian has been in charge of contacting Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping in Zhongshan since returning home.How did these two people get involved with Dong Bi?Speaking of it, I would like to thank Mr. Luo for his "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

When Li Ru began to cast a net in Jizhou, the first thing he considered was the Zhongshan Zhen family.

However, Dong Bi didn't have a very deep impression of the Zhen family in Zhongshan, and the background of the Zhen family was really complicated.

At the beginning of the Romance, two businessmen were mentioned.

At that time, Liu Bei summoned Xiangyong in Zhuojun, and he received funding from two merchants.One is Su Shuang and the other is Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping's real name is Zhang You (you), and his style name is Shiping.

This is also what Li Ru found out later.The backgrounds of these two people are not complicated. Although Zhang You belongs to the branch of the Zhang family in Zhongshan, it was a long time ago.Ever since Zhang Youzu went into business, the Zhang family has eliminated Zhang You's family.Although they are of the same race in name, they have no contact with each other for a long time.

In contrast, Su Shuang and Zhang You are more in line with Dong Bi's requirements.

When Li Ru sent people to contact Su and Zhang in secret, Su Shuang and Zhang You were a little confused at the time.This is a piece of pie that fell from the sky. Although there are risks, once it succeeds, the benefits obtained will be unimaginable.

Who do businessmen admire most?
Not Tao Zhugong, the ancestor of the merchant, nor Zi Gong, a student of the sage.Whoever does the best business is Lu Buwei, who is a "rare commodity to live in".After discussing, Su Shuang and Zhang You immediately agreed to Li Ru's invitation.

At the end of July, after Dong Bi had an accident in Jining, Chang'an got the news very quickly.

And not long after, they got news from Dong Bi.It was Wu Yan who delivered the letter to Chang'an.

Wu Yan is not Han, but also proficient in Xianbei.

So it was easy to pass beyond the Great Wall and arrive at Shuofang.And in a secret way, tell Chang'an about Dong Bi's situation.

In fact, Dong Bi's situation is not good.

In the First World War outside the Great Wall, Guo Yuan died in battle, Dong Pi was wounded by an arrow, and Yuan soldiers suffered heavy casualties. At the final count, there were only more than [-] people left.

In his entire life, even when he was in the most embarrassing situation, Dong Bi had never suffered such a loss!
After he entered the cloud, he immediately fled into the mountains, not daring to appear easily.On the one hand, Wu Yan was sent to report the news, on the other hand, he secretly observed the situation and waited for Chang'an's rescue.After all, Yunzhong is not Guanzhong, it is Yuan Shao's territory, so Dong Bi has to be careful.Fortunately, although Gao Lan stationed troops in Wuyuan Yunzhong, he only blocked the checkpoints.

As for Chang'an, after receiving the news from Dong Bi, he immediately sent Guanqiu Jian to Zhongshan.

They need to borrow the relationship between Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping to bring Dong Bi from Yunzhong to Hedong.Instead of going to Wuyuan in the Clouds, it was beyond everyone's expectations. After entering Jizhou, it went through Bingzhou, departed from Zhongshan Kingdom, traveled to Changshan Kingdom, passed through Shangdang, and arrived at Wenxi in Hedong.As long as they arrive at Wenxi, the safety of Dong Bi and others will be guaranteed.

As for Changshan Kingdom and Zhongshan Kingdom, and even Shangdang...

Su Shuang and Zhang You are responsible for getting through the link.

When Guan Qiujian arrived in Zhongshan, Su Shuang and Zhang You had already left the fortress.Therefore, Guan Qiujian stayed in Zhongshan, while another group of three hundred fighters led by Dong Tie went to contact Su Shuang under the leadership of the Su family.

"Mr. Gu, don't worry, with Big Brother Yuanrong on the way, my lord will be safe."

After comforting Gu Yong with a wry smile, Guan Qiujian said to Su You and Zhang Zun: "You two elder brothers, although what the Zhen family said is true, we still need to be careful. Those who send someone to monitor the Zhen family We have to be prepared for every move we make... If my calculation is correct and everything goes well, the lord will arrive within one or two days."

Su was led by Zhang Zun to go.

Now that the secret has been revealed, there is no need to hide it.In terms of status, Su Yu and Zhang Zun belonged to Guan Qiujian.And at this time, Gu Yong's heart that had been anxious all this time was put back in his stomach.

Farewell to Yucheng, in the blink of an eye, it has been 14 years!
Judging from the deeds of the junior brother, in his heart, there is still a senior brother like me!

but……

Gu Yong suddenly remembered something, and asked softly: "Young Master Guanqiu, I don't know Chang'an, what happened first?"

Chang'an?

Guanqiu Jian was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, although Chang'an is chaotic, it is still under control!"

******
In November of the first year of Jian'an, the war outside the Great Wall, which had been entangled for three months, finally came to an end as He Qi continued to mobilize the begging army!
This battle can be said to have been completed independently by the begging army.

Together, He Qi and Jia Fang defeated the Queju Xianbei and other tribes, killed more than [-] enemies, and captured more than [-] Xianbei people.According to the rules of the begging army, these captives should be filled into the begging army, but this time...

He Qi sacrificed the butcher's knife again and beheaded 13 Xianbei prisoners.

13 bloody human heads piled up thirteen Jingguan outside the Great Wall, and blood stained most of the grassland red.

Congratulations to Hades!
This is He Qi's nickname now, and like Dong Shashen back then, it has become a nightmare for Xianbei people.

However, although the Qihuo Army won a complete victory, they also suffered heavy losses. They stationed troops outside the Great Wall and were no longer able to attack Danhan Mountain.

In a sense, the war is not over yet.Or rather, it's just the beginning...

But even so, the begging army stationed outside the Great Wall still posed a huge threat to Bingzhou and Youzhou.

Goose feather heavy snow, one after another.

On Chang'an Bashang, it is already covered in white snow.

This year's snow is very heavy, which has caused quite a lot of disasters in some areas.In particular, the continuous fighting in Guanzhong and the influx of refugees caused food shortages and riots in Qinchuan, which was eight hundred miles away in the past.

On November [-], riots broke out in Yangcheng, Fanxukou, Huicheng and Longxian County!
And these places are where the strength of the Han'an army is the weakest. Chen Dao had no choice but to lead the white army to fight against the chaos.

The Fuang (ang) gate located in the southeast of Chang'an City has been repaired.

Oun, according to the explanation of "Shuowen", is a container for carrying grain.To be overwhelmed means not to be valued or understood.

In fact, among the twelve gates in Chang'an, the Fu'an Gate is really nothing.

If you make a metaphor, Chang'an City is a big house, then there are four Dayi Gates.The rest of the city gates, the ending corner gate, and the Fu'an gate are even more so. Compared with the Anmen gate at the main gate of the southern city, it is really insignificant.

But now, there is a big man living in this door.

Zang Hong, the order of Chang'an, is not a prominent official position if it is only about official positions.Today, Chang'an is the royal capital established by the king of the Western Han Dynasty, and it is also the place where Dong Bi founded his mansion.There are so many officials, big and small, in Chang'an City.

But Zang Hong is different.

He was the master of ceremonies when the Kwantung princes first allied against Dong, and he was also a world-renowned celebrity.

Dong Bi once praised him as a "strong man with integrity". Although he was captured, he was not killed, but exiled to the Western Regions.

At the same time, he gave Zang Hong a topic: How to make scholars and warriors coexist peacefully?

In the blink of an eye, it has been almost ten years...

Zang Hong never thought that one day he would come out of the Western Regions.Although it is not home, it still feels cordial.

Dong Pi valued him, Lu Zhi valued him, Cai Yong valued him, and Yang Xu valued him too!

Not only that, many people, including the king of the Western Han Dynasty, valued Zang Hong.So much so that when Dong Bi recommended Fei Wo to be the Chang'an Order, it was not approved, and Zang Hong was appointed instead.Only this shows Zang Hongzhi's reputation.

But Zang Hong knew very well that this damn Chang'an Order was not an easy role to play.

In Chang'an City, there are many factions.There is a line loyal to Dong Bi, and there is also a line loyal to the King of the Western Han Dynasty.Although there was no conflict between Dong Bi and Liu Bian, king of the Western Han Dynasty, the struggle between the subjects started from the day Liu Bian entered Chang'an... or even longer, as early as in the Western Regions. It hasn't stopped.

However, in the Western Regions, Liu Bian, king of the Western Han Dynasty, was not very powerful.

But in Chang'an...

In the room, the charcoal fire in the fireplace was raging.

Although it was freezing outside, inside the house was warm as spring.

Zang Hong leaned on the couch, but his brows were frowning, and he seemed to be preoccupied.The door curtain was lifted, and a tall, dignified woman with obvious alien features walked in from the outside.Holding the tray in hand, he walked to the side of the couch, put the food on the tray, poured a glass of wine for Zang Hong, and served it in front of Zang Hong.

"Ah, Mrs. Lao!"

Zang Hong woke up with a start, quickly took the wine glass, and said softly.

This woman is the wife Zang Hong married back in the Western Regions. She is extremely talented and has royal blood, so her background is not small.

At the beginning, the Queen Jingjue and the whole country defected to Dong Pi.

Empress Dowager He felt that she belonged to the Han family, so she bestowed the Jingjue royal family with a Chinese surname: Xi.

Zang Hong's small family has long since disappeared.Alone in the Western Regions, Empress Dowager He appointed the queen's younger sister to marry Zang Hong, named Xi Shi.

This Mrs. Xi is also quite considerate and knowledgeable.

Since the marriage was bestowed by the Empress Dowager He, Zang Hong also respected the Xi family very much.

Xi said: "Husband, these days, you are always frowning. Could it be that something is bothering you?"

Zang Hong sighed and drank the wine in one gulp.

"When I was in the Western Regions, I wanted to leave. But now that I think about it, the few years in the Western Regions have been the most leisurely and comfortable days in my life... Madam doesn't know, I really want to resign now. , and go back to the Western Regions to be happy."

Xi wondered, "Why does my husband feel so emotional?"

"Didn't Madam notice that the atmosphere in Chang'an City is not normal recently?"

"What rumors are you talking about?"

Mrs. Xi snorted, "The governor is extremely brave and skilled in martial arts. The person in the world who can kill the governor is probably not born yet."

The Xi family was born in the Western Regions, and Dong Bi had managed the Western Regions quite well in the past years.

Therefore, people in the Western Regions are very grateful to Dong Pi, except for those who are hostile.Xi's is no exception.

Zang Hong smiled wryly and said: "I also know it's a rumor, but if the governor doesn't show up for a day, the rumor will not stop. What I'm worried about is not the rumor itself, but the conspiracy hidden behind the rumor. "

"conspiracy?"

"That's right, if the governor is here, it can deter Xiaoxiao. But now that the governor is not here, the dragons in Chang'an City have no leader. This year, there was a rebellion in Long County due to the snowstorm. General Chen led the army to quell the chaos. There will inevitably be emptiness in Chang'an City If someone takes this opportunity to make trouble, I am worried that the foundation that the governor and the king have painstakingly managed will... You know, the begging army is seriously injured, and the Jiefan army and the selection front army are entangled, and it is difficult to escape for a while. "

Xi Shi let out a scream and covered his mouth.

"Husband means that someone will rebel?"

"I don't know if there will be rebellion, but I know that there are some people who don't want to live under the governor."

Just as Mrs. Xi was about to speak, a family member came to report outside the door: "My lord, Dr. Zhi and Mr. Jin are asking to see you."

Hearing this, Zang Hong frowned.

He hesitated for a moment, then stood up abruptly, "Please hurry up, I'll be there soon."
