Chapter 285: Chaos (2)

In the three years of Chuping, the Han Dynasty, which had become more stable, suddenly became extremely chaotic.

The people couldn't even know what was going on. Why did the great victory come at the beginning of the year? In just two or three months, the world of the great man became another person? Whoever is loyal and treacherous, whoever is good and whoever is bad, and the boundaries between right and wrong, good and evil suddenly blurred.

Although Dong Zhuo performed the decree and establishment, overall, under his governance, Guanzhong became increasingly calm.

Dong Qi, a general of tigers and wolves, created the greatest victory for the Han Dynasty over foreign tribes in the first hundred years of its establishment. Of course, the Dong family killed people a bit hard, but what does it matter? If it is not my race, their hearts will be different. He will kill all the Hu Man!

But these two people became traitors overnight.

In the list of articles that inform the world, dozens of culprits of the Dong family father and son were listed, but no matter how you look at it, it seemed to be a crime that was imposed.

As soon as Dong Zhuo died, news came that Lu Bu was attacked by Yuan Shao's army in Bingzhou.

In the next tragic battle in Dingxiang City, Lu Bu was attacked by Yuan Shao's army and Xianbei army, and withdrew from Bingzhou, but disappeared.

In early April, the Han'an Protectorate in Linjing was attacked by Ma Teng.

The chief strategist of Dong Qi was killed. The chief general Dian Wei and the defeated generals were covered by the Dong family and forced Liu Bin, the son of Hongnong, to retreat into Shuofang. Xu Huang, the prefect of Shuofang, ordered Pang Qing to defend the city block to death and repel Yang Feng and Ma Teng's coalition forces.

Almost at the same time, Dong Qi burned Gucheng, defeated Li Guo's troops, and retreated to Hangu Pass.

Logically speaking, if the traitor is dead, then the person who kills the traitor should be the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty.

But in just a few days, Li Guo suddenly returned to attack Luoyang, rushed into Luoyang from Jinyong Gate, and captured Zheng Tai, who should be a hero alive.

The day after Luoyang City was destroyed, Zheng Tai was beheaded in the mouth of Caishi.

Before his death, Zheng Tai did not curse Li Jue and Guo Si, but instead cursed Cao Cao who was not related to this matter, which was really strange.

Zheng Tai was abandoned at Caishikou. Three days later, someone found that there was another corpse next to his body.

He was a guy with an extremely ugly face, but he looked like he was burned. After careful identification, people in Luoyang found that this ugly face was a rebel who was rumored to have been dead for two years, Zhong Shao.

It's messy, it's all messy...

Zhong Shao is a rebel, so Zheng Tai, who is a hero, is also a rebel?

What happened next made the Han people dumbfounded. Before Zheng Tai died, Cao Cao cursed him, and sent troops to attack Luoyang without any grudges. The general Han Meng of Chenggao was killed by Cao Cao's general Taishici, and the army rushed forward.

The name of sending troops was: Li Guo was both traitors, and the assassination of the Grand Tutor Dong Zhuo first, and the famous scholar Zheng Tai and the queen were beheaded in half.

Who is the traitor and who is the treacherous minister?

After a brief resistance in Luoyang, Li Guo gave up Luoyang.

Lead the remnants and defeated generals to Hangu Pass.

When they left Luoyang, the two men held hostages Liu Xie, the twelve-year-old Emperor of Han, and also the property of Luoyang Kufu.

Well, at this point, it should be clear who is treacherous and loyal.

As Dong Zhuo's son, Dong Qiu should join forces with Cao Cao to block Li Jue and Guo Si outside Hangu Pass.

But who knew that when Li Jue and Guo Si arrived at Hangu Pass, the city was empty, with only some old, weak and remnants.

After inquiring, I found out that Dong Qi had already evacuated Hangu Pass and fled towards Hongnong County.

Li Jue and Guo Si took Emperor Liu Xie hostage to Hangu Pass and immediately prepared troops.

Cao Cao, who kept saying that he wanted to avenge Dong Zhuo and Zheng Tai and wanted to clear the king, suddenly stopped attacking after occupying Luoyang.

Reason: Yang Ding, the garrison commander of Yang Di, planned to rebel.

So Cao Cao immediately led his troops south, and ten days later he captured Yang Di and killed Yang Ding at the city.

*******

Located outside Jingzhou City, there is a stream called Tanxi.

If the same jade belt surrounds Jingzhou City. There is a manor on the banks of Tanxi River. When locals mention it, they will call it Shuijing Villa in a very respectful tone. The owner of the villa is Sima Hui. When it comes to his name, everyone in Jingzhou knows it. It is one of the three kings of the Han Dynasty, the famous Mr. Shuijing.

It was already June and the weather was very hot.

A group of teenagers were gathering together, and the atmosphere was extremely enthusiastic about the topic.

"Pang Tong, don't you admire the tiger and wolf general the most? Dong Xiping retreated without fighting, which made Li and Guo calmly retreat from Hangu Pass to Guanzhong... The teacher said that after Dong Xiping retreated, the Han Dynasty would never have peace. Hehe, from my perspective, Dong Xiping was a tiger and wolf general, it was clearly a fool thief in the country. If the Han Dynasty was defeated, the person would be the leader."

This statement is obviously a view recognized by most people.

But a young man stood up and said, "Liu Pan, don't swear. The brother of the Dong family is the best hero in the world. He is thirteen years old and fights against Wancheng. At the age of fourteen, he stops the Qiang people from knocking on the edge, and at the age of seventeen, Yongqiu rescues the Jia. What is not a great thing? Not to mention the distance, just say the nearest ones, regain Shuofang and expand the territory for our Han Dynasty. This is the most proud thing in the past hundred years since the General Dou Xian defeated the Northern Huns. Why is it not a hero?"

The young man named Liu Pan scoffed, "It's just a butcher's ear."

"Ha, butcher?"

The young man shouted: "If there are really more butchers like the brother of the Dong family in the world, how dare you look at me directly?"

He became more and more excited as he spoke. Later, he stood on the stone table, "Liu Pan, since the Dong family's brother defeated the Guandong princes, the court has been cleaned up and the people have lived in peace. With labor-for-relief, how many refugees can live? How many people have regained their homes in Luoyang's farming? If it weren't for these people, it would take ten years for our Han army dragon flag to fly on the frontier."

"Hmph, but he is still a coward!"

"Are you timid?"

The young man said angrily: "If it weren't for the so-called famous scholars' conspiracy that An Ding was attacked and Niu Fu was assassinated, with the ability of the Dong family brother, how could he evacuate Hangu Pass? Humph, Liu Pan, if you were in the position of the Dong family brother, you would probably have died long ago."

A 17 or 8-year-old boy stood up from the crowd and said sarcastically: "In this way, can only say that Dong Xiping is stupid?"

When Pang Tongyi saw the boy, he sneered repeatedly, "The brother of the Dong family is really not as urgent as you. Who can compare with Huaiju Lulang?"

The young man was named Lu Ji, and he was from the Lu clan of Lujiang.

Qin Jie heard that he was smart and invited him to a banquet. During the meal, Lu Ji loved the delicious food and put it secretly in his arms before leaving, not wanting to drop three at the door of the mansion.

At that time, Qin Jie asked in surprise: "Why did Lu Lang have oranges?"

Lu Ji replied, "The citrus tastes delicious. Although I tasted it, my mother at home didn't know it's delicious, so she wanted to take it home."

In fact, everyone knows what's going on.

Qin Jie was also a magnanimous person. When he smiled, he ordered people to prepare a lot for Lu Ji.

The person Pang Tong admired the most was Dong Qi. After hearing Lu Ji's sarcastic statement, he was furious and immediately fought back.

After several years, Pang Tong is now fourteen years old.

First, he studied under his uncle's school, and when he was ten years old, he joined the Shuijing Villa.

This group of young men are all students of Mr. Shui Jing Sima Hui. Most of them are from famous Jingyang families and like to talk big together.

As Dong Zhuo was killed, a group of teenagers began to argue.

They are all descendants of famous families, and they have many things to be influenced by on weekdays, so they are very knowledgeable.

The young man who had argued with Pang Tong before was Liu Pan, the son of the governor of Jingzhou, Liu Biao. He had never dealt with Pang Tong in the past. Now that he heard that Dong Qi abandoned Hangu Pass, he would certainly not miss the opportunity to use this to attack Pang Tong.

Almost everyone in Shuijing Villa knows that Pang Tong admires Dong Qi the most.

Lu Ji was blushed and speechless when Pang Tong said it.

When Pang Tong said that, he waved his fists and shouted: "What is a scholar? Those who can do things for the people are scholars. Although Tai Shi Dong is not of a high origin, he does real things for the people. But what about the so-called scholars? He calculates all day long, but in the end he is plotted by others. How can Zheng Tai be worthy of the supreme scholar?"

"Pang Tong, what's wrong with you? Dong Zhuo's despise husband, what kind of virtue do you have to call him a scholar?"

"Ha, what the teacher said is a scholar! Do you think the teacher said it wrong?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but fall silent.

Pang Tong's spirit is even more energetic, "The brother of the Dong family is a person who works, so how can he be so envious to plot against Zheng Tai and others all day long? In my opinion, the brother of the Dong family is not a traitor, but those who enjoy reputation, such as Zheng Tai's exile, are traitors."

"Pang Tong, stop talking!"

A kind-looking young man stood up in the crowd, looking eighteen or nineteen years old.

As soon as the young man stood up, Pang Tong immediately closed his mouth. However, his eyes were still staring at everyone present, seeing who dared to say that the Dong family’s brother was not?

"Now, since Marquis of Wugong left Hongnong, there has been no news, which is really worrying."

Liu Pan frowned, "Brother Ziyu, why are you protecting the Dong family like this?"

The young man is Zhuge Jin, and he is nineteen years old this year.

Upon hearing Liu Pan's inquiry, Zhuge Jin just smiled slightly and did not give a positive answer.

He pulled Pang Tong aside and whispered: "Pang Tong, do you say that Marquis of Wugong has not heard of it for so long, is it really okay?"

Pang Tong's expression darkened at first, but then he smiled.

"There are no ones in the world who can keep the Dong family brother away except the Dong family brother himself... By the way, Brother Zhuge, are you going home after listening to the teacher's lecture this time?"

Zhuge Jin shook his head, "The teacher said that I have taught me everything I can. Some things I need to think about by myself. I have thought about it. After the teacher finished his lecture this time, I will go home first and then go out for a trip."

"Traveling?" Pang Tong couldn't help but show envy.

The situation between Zhuge Jin and Pang Tong is different.

He taught his father Zhuge Gui when he was young, and then received guidance from Huang Chengyan. He studied with Pang Degong several years ago.

It can be said that it is the best of many families.

This time I came to Shuijing Villa just to listen to Sima Hui’s lecture.

But Pang Tong was not able to leave, and Sima Hui did not nod for a day and could not leave for a day, so he was very envious of Zhuge Jin.
