”There is no Yang Lin in Jing Prefecture, but there is a Sun Jian in Jing Prefecture. No matter what, Yang Lin was still a reasonable person, but Sun Jian was a disciple of the tiger and wolf, hence he could not understand human nature, and would occasionally raise his blade to kill people, unable to speak with them. Furthermore, since the Guan Dong State County is taking action, and you are also under Dong Zhuo's orders, like Yuan Shu, Sun Jian, they will definitely regard you as a bandit, so how can they possibly allow you to do so? ”
Yang Biao did not have high hopes for Liu Biao, he believed that once Liu Biao took over Jing Zhou, he would be ambushed and killed by Sun Jian. The eight counties of Jing Prefecture were already controlled by Sun Jian and Yuan Shu. With Sun Jian, who would dare to easily go up to become a Acanthopanax of Jingzhou, who had the guts to lure and kill the Minister of the Court twice or thrice already? Wasn't this like a lamb entering a tiger's den!
”Sigh …” Sun Jian's actions of killing Shangguan was due to the decline of the country and the decline of the dynasty. Now that Yang Lin has taken the initiative to elect the Son of Heaven, he will overturn my big brother for four hundred years. When our country is in danger, how can I disregard our country's justice for my own safety? ”
Liu Biao drank all the wine in his cup in one gulp, then sighed towards the sky as tears unconsciously flowed out of his eyes. Although it was said that the world belonged to no one but the virtuous and the only virtuous, the Liu clansmen had always treated the big man as a garden for their own family.
”Liu Biao has been serving the County ever since he was a teenager, moving to the imperial court. He has been unable to contribute to the nation for the past twenty to thirty years, and today is the day where he gets what he wants. If he could protect several counties of Jing Prefecture in this decaying era, then he would live his life as long as he lived! Furthermore, in the situation of the Luoyang, Dong Zhuo controls the entire imperial government and does whatever he wants. Even if he stays here, it is still filled with danger, so it would be better for him to take this chance to leave the Luoyang.
The Minister of the Court sitting there looked at each other, and unconsciously revealed a wry smile. Who said it wasn't? Even though Jingzhou was dangerous, was the Luoyang safe? Wasn't Dong Zhuo the one who could kill whoever he wanted to? Who would dare to say half a word of no? The dozen or so stood up and raised their wine cups together.
”Master Liu Biao, we will be able to meet again in this lifetime, I wonder if we can make it to Jing Prefecture. ”Come, let us drink this cup of wine together. We wish Sir Liu Biao the best of fortune, avoid Sun Jian, and safely enter Jingzhou.
”Mr. Zhang Ling, something bad happened. Dong Zhuo's soldiers plundered and captured people on the streets, forcing everyone to move to Chang'an. ” Wu Feng hurriedly ran into the small courtyard and said anxiously, ”A general from West Cold Army came and told us to move inside today, if not we would have to capture him.”
”Hehe …” hussar general was right... As expected, Dong Zhuo started moving his capital. ” Not only was Zhang Banxian not anxious, she smiled. Ever since she rescued Young Emperor Liu Bian, the Zhang Banxian had not left the Luoyang. According to Yang Lin's orders, he still had another mission to complete at the inn. ”And now, it is time for him to carry out his mission.” Hand over the matters of the inn to Li Liang and Zhang Tian, come with me. ”
Wu Feng brought the two horses over and walked with Zhang Banxian onto the main street. On the streets, Xiliang soldier was everywhere. Other than swords and guns, every soldier had spongy silk s hanging from their necks. They were carrying bags on their shoulders, money bag s were tied to their waists, and some were carrying clothes. Behind every group of Xiliang soldier, there were over ten large carts filled with all kinds of treasures.
In the hands of those Xiliang General s, they were even carrying a list, and looted from house to house according to the names and addresses on the list. The ones who suffered the most were the royal relatives and Chieftain s. Not only were their property looted clean, they were also taken away.
When he reached the entrance of the palace, he saw many Xiliang soldier coming out of the palace with big and small bags in their hands. It was obvious that even the palace was not spared from this robbery. In some places it was already on fire, but no one bothered to put it out.
”What a calamity …” The Liu's Empire is finished! ” ”Zhang Banxian shook her head and painfully closed her eyes. He really couldn't bear to see all of this. What were the sins of the people when the country fell? Why did Dong Zhuo force such a calamity onto the citizens? ”
The two of them left the Luoyang and urged their horses to head east. Two hours later, they arrived at the Ying Yang, where they were blocked by a high-ranking officer. The Zhang Banxian immediately sat straight on her horse and said haughtily: ”Quickly go and inform General Xu Rong, tell him that his family has arrived.”
When the leader heard that it was the main general's family, he did not dare to be careless at all and immediately sent people to report it, and also chatted with Zhang Banxian for a while. So the general's name was Xu Ning, and he was a member of Xu Rong's clan. Not long later, the soldier ran back and invited them. Xu Ning then brought Zhang Banxian and Wu Feng into the Ying Yang and walked towards Xu Rong's Big Account.
Zhang Banxian walked into Xu Rong's Big Account. Seeing that there were other generals in Xu Rong's Big Account, she walked up a few steps and cupped her hands towards Xu Rong. As Xu Rong was currently a mediator, the Zhang Banxian said respectfully: ”Greetings, Lord General.”
”You are …” Xu Rong didn't recognize the Zhang Banxian as he looked at him in confusion.
Zhang Banxian looked around, wanting to say something but hesitated. When the generals under Xu Rong saw that the man claimed that he was from the same hometown as Xu Rong, and that he must have some private affairs, they all stood up and took their leave. Xu Rong waved his hands, the Generals walked out one after another, leaving Xu Rong, Zhang Banxian and Wu Feng behind.
”I am Zhang Ling's advisor.” Zhang Banxian raised her head and smiled at Xu Rong.
