Enlightenment of the Three Kingdoms

Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang, said: "General Chen, Young Master Liu just came back from Chang'an and is very tired. I ordered someone to arrange him to rest in Sikong Mansion. You two, brothers and sisters, go to Sikong Mansion to meet him together."

Chen Yong said: "Thank you, General Empress, my brother and sister will go to the Sikong Mansion right now, meet the eldest son Liu He, and find out the specific situation in Chang'an City, so that we can go to Chang'an City early tomorrow morning."

Yuan Shu and Yuan Gonglu ordered Chen Yong and his brother and sister to rush to the Sikong Mansion together.Soon the attendant sent Chen Yong, brother and sister, into the Sikong mansion, and met the eldest son Liu He.When Liu He saw Chen Yong and Chen Yiran, he was very surprised. He never thought that he would meet Chen Yong and his sister here.

After the three of them were divided into guests and hosts, some people left after serving tea. The eldest son Liu Hecai asked, "General Chen, Yiyi, how did you two come to Luoyang City? Is my father okay?"

The two Chen Yong brothers and sisters said: "Young master, Da Sima is in good health. It's just that the old man misses you very much, so he ordered us two brothers and sisters to go to Chang'an and meet you. I didn't expect the three of us to be in Luoyang City. It was an unexpected opportunity to meet.”

Liu He sighed and said: "Han Emperor Xian Liu Xie tossed and turned in Chang'an City, and was always under house arrest by Dong Zhuo, trapped in the palace of Chang'an. The little emperor saw that the traitor Dong Zhuoyue was domineering, so he ordered me, Liu He, to find a way Flee back to the Central Plains, find the princes, my father and other prefects, state shepherds and others, so that we can join forces and attack Dong Zhuo together! So that we can rescue the little emperor Liu Xie as soon as possible, and get him out of the sea of ​​suffering..."

Chen Yong said: "Can you get out of the sea of ​​suffering in this way? Don't you know, Eldest Prince, that people's hearts are unpredictable? Didn't you remind him that it is not so easy for the princes, prefects, state shepherds and others to join forces? ?”

Liu He said: "Why don't I know? It's just that when I saw the little emperor Liu Xie, he always washed my face with tears, which made me feel like a knife was piercing my heart, so I had to agree to him and do such things. I have little emperor Liu Xie. The imperial edict to assist him, I believe everyone will not help him out of trouble, right?"

Chen Yong said: "So is this really the case? Why do you think Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang, kept you in the Sikong mansion? Instead of letting you go? So that you can take the imperial edict of Han Xiandi Liu Xie to find more The feudal lords, prefects, and state shepherds, unite and attack Dong Zhuo?"

Liu He said: "The later general Yuan Shu said that I have suffered too much when I rushed back from Chang'an these days. He is willing to find someone to take me to complete this matter, and let me rest in the Sikong mansion. It is enough to rush from Chang'an to Luoyang. The journey along the way was extremely dangerous, and I managed to get out of trouble and escape back, so I needed to take a good rest."

Chen Yong saw that the eldest son Liu He was obsessed with obsession, so he stopped trying to persuade him, so he asked, "Eldest son, can you tell me what's going on in Chang'an City? Da Sima wants me to sneak into Chang'an so that I can find a chance to assassinate the national traitor Dong Zhuo. I know that it is extremely difficult to accomplish this, so I plan to find the Eldest Young Master after arriving in Chang'an so that the Eldest Young Master can arrange everything, but I never want to meet here..."

Then Liu He said excitedly: "General Chen Yong, do you really want to sneak into Chang'an City and assassinate the national traitor Dong Zhuo? This trip is very difficult?"

Chen Yong said: "Our brother and sister have already agreed to Da Sima, otherwise we would not have rushed to Chang'an together. It's just that the eldest son has left Chang'an now. After we arrive in Chang'an, who can we trust?"

The eldest son Liu He said: "Dong Zhuo's relatives are everywhere in Chang'an City, guarding the safety of Chang'an City. Therefore, it is not easy for officials to see the emperor and ministers. Dong Zhuo will not give it to the officials at all. Opportunities to visit each other, to order hundreds of officials, on weekdays, you can only stay at home alone, and occasionally meet other officials, but this rarely happens..."

Chen Yong asked: "My lord, you see, we two brothers and sisters have reached Chang'an on this trip, how can we meet the Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xie? Who should we trust to help us temporarily hide our identities so that we can find an opportunity to assassinate the national traitor Dong Zhuo? "

The eldest son Liu He said: "General Chen, I have had the most contact with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie, but when he left Chang'an, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie told me that Situ Wang Yun was also planning to assassinate the national traitor Dong Zhuo! It's just that Situ Wang Yun is very close to Dong Zhuo on weekdays, I really don't know that he intends to assassinate Dong Zhuo, let alone what Wang Yun is planning.

General Chen, if you two brothers and sisters have arrived in Chang'an, if you have a chance to get in touch with Situ Wangyun, it's still you two brothers and sisters, please verify it yourself.I have here the imperial edict given to me by Liu Xie, Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty. I still have use for this thing, so I cannot give it to General Chen.But the jade pendant of Emperor Xiandi Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty can be given to General Chen.When Situ Wangyun sees this thing, he must know that General Chen Yong is the emperor's confidant! "

Chen Yong said: "My lord, you have been with Han Xiandi Liu Xie for so long, don't you have some close people? Are you reliable? You can use it, just tell me Chen Yong brothers and sisters. I am new to Chang'an and need help , so that my subordinates can gather together, and when the time comes to assassinate the national traitor Dong Zhuo, can we have a chance to become powerful?"

The eldest son Liu He thought for a while and said: "I have a good relationship with Sun Rui, the official who holds the gold. He is also the confidant of Liu Xie, Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty. If the two brothers and sisters of General Chen Yong can reach Chang'an, they can contact him and they will surely protect them." Good General Chen, you brother and sister, and the dead soldiers who went with you!"

Chen Yong still wanted to get together with the eldest son Liu He again to find out more useful news, but when he heard someone outside the door reporting, afterward General Yuan Shu came to see his servant Liu He, and he knew that it was time for his brother and sister to leave. .So Chen Yong, brother and sister went out together to welcome Yuan Shu, the latter general, into the palace, and Chen Yong, brother and sister bid farewell together.

The eldest son Liu He tried his best to persuade him to stay, but Chen Yong said: "Eldest son, the general later will naturally have important matters to discuss with you. My brother and sister have important matters tomorrow, so I will stop bothering you. I also hope that the son will be careful and go there as soon as possible." In the land of Youzhou, I pay my respects to my father, Lord Liu Yu!"

After Liu He agreed, he did not insist on letting Chen Yong and his sister stay. Afterwards, General Yuan Shu ordered someone to send Chen Yong and his sister out of the palace.After Chen Yong and Chen Yiran got out of the palace, they both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.The two looked at each other and smiled, both very satisfied with the trip.

At least the two of them got a jade pendant from Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty during this trip. With this item alone, it will be much easier to make friends with Sun Rui, the golden warrior.And I also learned that Situ Wangyun had the intention of assassinating the national traitor Dong Zhuo, which means that the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty in Chang'an did not have the intention of saving themselves.It seems that I will not be too lonely on this trip, and the day of Dong Zhuo's execution is expected to be earlier than the day I expected.

Brother and sister Chen Yong went out of Luoyang City, met Fang Ming and Li Meng, and told them the news they got from the old shopkeeper.There can be 200 people on this trip with me, and others will have to wait for the next opportunity.Chen Yong took out Jia Zhen's token and handed it over to Fang Ming and Li Meng, asking them to draw 200 people for him, so that he could go to Chang'an with this batch of silk in the morning.

Fang Ming handed over the Jia Zhen keepsake that Chen Yong handed over to Li Meng, and handed Jia Zhen's letter to Li Meng, asking him to keep it. He would go to Chang'an with Chen Yong tomorrow.

Fang Ming and Li Meng were at loggerheads, and they both wanted to go to Chang'an with Chen Yong.Chen Yong thought for a while and said: "General Li Meng, you should stay. Most of these soldiers are your cronies, so you can better restrain them by staying. And the 200 people on this trip to Chang'an, Just take out all those who are not your cronies, and fill in the gaps.

These people are led by Fang Ming, I believe you can feel more at ease.Let General Li Meng accept that token, so that he can win his trust when handing over to the old shopkeeper.Tomorrow, I will bring Jia Zhen's letter. In this way, after Chang'an, we can also get the letter from the shopkeeper of Jia Zhen's shop in Chang'an City. Maybe it will be of great use. "

Li Meng knew that Chen Yong's arrangement was the most reasonable, and he was also worried that his cronies would stay outside Luoyang City, so he agreed to Chen Yong's arrangement.

The four of them were in the big camp that night, so they drank wine together.Chen Yiran just picked up the teapot and poured himself a drink.Both Fang Ming and Li Meng knew about Chen Yiran's illness, and they were flattered that she would stay with him, and no one cared whether she would drink tea or drink.

The three of them poured and drank, and they all opened up the conversation box.That Fang Ming first said: "Brother Li Meng, you and I have known each other for more than two years, and I know the depression in my heart. You have never been able to get out of the confinement in your heart, and you always feel sorry for the folks in your hometown. In fact, there is no need to be like this... ..."

Li Meng said: "Over the past two years, my brothers and I have come out a lot, otherwise we would not have followed General Chen Yong to Chang'an. I know that the trip to Chang'an is very dangerous. It is unknown to be together alive. You and I drink this cup today, and cherish it for the reunion in the future!"

The three of them drank the cup to the brim, feeling a sense of sympathy.Chen Yong said: "You and I met each other in troubled times. After two or three years of running-in, we are also familiar with each other's temperament. We don't know when we will meet tomorrow. Today, I propose that you and I have different surnames." How is brother?"

Fang Ming and Li Meng hurriedly said: "Impossible! General Chen is the captain of cavalry personally appointed by the imperial court, the general who conquers the north. The two of us, brothers, only followed General Chen Yong, so we had a chance to rise to the top. We and I How do you call yourself brother and brother with General Chen Yong?"

Chen Yong smiled and said: "In Youzhou, no matter how dangerous it is, I can control it. But this trip to Chang'an, I, Chen Yong, have no confidence at all. So I want to become brothers with different surnames with the two generals, so that If so, no matter what we do, it will be easier for us three brothers to work together regardless of each other, what do you two agree?"

Fang Ming and Li Meng looked at each other and said, "Then respect is worse than obedience! General Chen Yong, no matter how old or young you are, we both recognize General Chen as your elder brother, otherwise, the marriage will be out of the question !"

Chen Yong knew what the two of them were thinking, so he agreed with a smile.So the three of them set up an incense table, and under the witness of the younger sister Yiyi, Chen Yong, Fang Ming, and Li Meng, outside Luoyang City, in the big camp, faced the bright moonlight, and began to make a vow.Among the three, Li Meng is the oldest, Fang Ming is next, and Chen Yong is the youngest.But it was agreed when they became sworn brothers, so Chen Yong was the eldest brother, Li Meng was the second brother, and Fang Ming was the third brother!

After this friendship with Jinlan, the relationship between the three brothers immediately took a step closer.And Chen Yiran has become the younger sister of the three of them, and everyone loves her even more.Both Fang Ming and Li Meng knew that Chen Yiran was in poor health, so they were more accommodating to her.

What Chen Yong needed was to make Fang Ming and Li Meng trust each other more.Because this trip is too dangerous, only if everyone works together can we turn the impossible into possible...
