Chapter 138 Failure
When the emperor traveled north to the Hejian Kingdom, this memorial came into his hands. After reading it, the emperor handed the memorial to Zhang Changshi beside him. He said: "I heard about Qingzhou.
The rampant Yellow Turbans are coming to us soon, is this a problem?"
Zhang Rang pretended to be surprised and replied: "I have never heard of this matter. Qingzhou Mu has been working diligently under his rule. I heard that he has almost eliminated this group of Yellow Turban rebels. Jizhou Mu suddenly said this,
There must be something fishy about it."
Then Zhang Rang glanced at a person, and Tai Shiling immediately stood up and spoke to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I observed the sky and noticed that there is a red haze in the north running from east to west. I am afraid it is an ominous omen.
This must be an early warning from God to His Majesty. There must be a conspiracy. I hope Your Majesty can think twice."
Zhang Rang took the opportunity to start slandering and said: "I have heard before that this Jizhou shepherd is entangled with a group of people who don't know what they are doing. Now I think about it, there must be a conspiracy."
The emperor also remembered what Zhang Rang had said to him before. People who spend money to be an official without making any money must have thoughts that others cannot understand. So he issued an order: "Send an order to Wang Fen so that he does not need to bring his troops here."
Yes. I am now ready to return to Luoyang. Send an order to him to go to Luoyang to see me."
Zhang Rang flattered and echoed: "Your Majesty is really decisive, so you should treat it as such."
The emperor waved his hands to several people with satisfaction, and then led everyone back to Luoyang.
When Wang Fen received the order from the Emperor, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. This was not what he and others had expected from the very beginning. The Emperor did not even allow him to lead his troops to protect him, so he wanted to call him
Going to Luoyang will definitely be a disaster.
After Wang Fen called a few people over, he smiled bitterly and said to them: "This plan has failed. I will take care of these things by myself. I hope it won't affect you."
Xu You hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Wang Shijun, what happened? Why did you say this?"
Wang Fen told everyone that the emperor did not allow him to take people to escort him, and he needed to go to Luoyang to meet the emperor himself.
Wang Fen said helplessly: "The emperor must have begun to doubt me with this move. If I go to Luoyang, it will definitely be in bad luck." Then he shouted in a sad and angry tone, "Heaven will help the thief but not me. This is the end of the world."
It is heaven that wants to destroy the Han Dynasty."
When Xu You heard this situation, he felt that the matter must have been exposed, and he was afraid that he and his people would definitely be liquidated. So he thought about it and said to several people: "The emperor must have been suspicious of us. We should take advantage of this opportunity."
This is the opportunity to escape. Wang Shijun must not go to Luoyang. If he does, he will definitely be imprisoned immediately."
The alchemist Xiangkai was a little unbelievable. The results of his divination showed that the matter should go smoothly. He had clearly calculated that the eunuchs would soon be executed. How could the result be different from what was shown in the hexagrams?
He hurriedly took out the utensils he was carrying, preparing to make a fortune for himself again. However, in his panic, he dropped his things on the floor. He squatted down and prepared to pick them up, but his
His movements have begun to change a bit. He is still muttering: "I have to do another divination, things will definitely turn around."
Seeing that he was so arrogant, Chen Yi grabbed his arm and said, "It's meaningless to calculate at this point. Sir, please stop. It can only mean that we have misinterpreted God's instructions."
Xiangkai suddenly sat down on the ground and said: "The hexagrams I interpreted will definitely not be wrong, definitely not."
After Wang Fen saw everyone's actions, he felt a little embarrassed and said: "A gentleman should not be afraid of life or death. How can you be so rude? Since the matter cannot be accomplished, it is better to die."
Chen Yi explained: "I hope Wang Shijun knows that we people are far inferior to Shijun. Before, we thought Wang Shijun would definitely succeed this time, so everyone was full of confidence. Now that we suddenly heard that the matter has been exposed, it is inevitable that this will happen.
Please don’t blame me, Wang Shijun.”
Xu You couldn't help but sigh: "There is indeed a great fear between life and death. When I participated in this matter, I had already made up my mind not to be afraid of life and death. How could I know that after the matter was exposed, I would be so afraid."
Wang Fen glanced at everyone with disdain and said: "In that case, just run away. You can always survive. This matter should end with me." However, he seemed to have understood something, and his tone began to change a little.
He softened: "Hey, it was me who caused the trouble, so how can I blame you? It is human nature to seek survival, and I cannot be so harsh on you. Please forgive me."
Xu You advised: "Why don't you, Wang Shijun, escape with us? There is a lot of chaos in all directions now. There is no way for the emperor to find us. I think it won't be long before we can come out openly."<
/p>
Wang Fen refused him and said: "It's easy for you and me to escape, but we still have wives and children. What will happen to the rest of the family once I leave? Since the emperor doesn't have any evidence about me, then I will commit suicide."
”
Xu You shouted in a panic: "Why is Ming Gong like this? We should have other options."
Wang Fen said sternly: "Don't try to persuade me anymore, I have made up my mind. You should also take advantage of this time to escape with your lives."
Xu You bowed to Wang Fen and said: "We will remember Ming Gong's feats in our hearts, and we will definitely make Ming Gong famous in the future. We will leave first."
Wang Fen nodded to several people and said: "Go, I hope you can live to help me witness the demise of the eunuchs."
Xu You solemnly said: "We will definitely see the eunuchs perish. Please rest assured, Lord Ming."
Chen Yi helped Xiang Kai up, and then Xu You took them away.
Wang Fen sat alone at the table and took out a bottle from his clothes, then poured all the contents of the bottle into a pot of wine on the table. He shook the wine pot slowly with a bitter smile,
Then he drank directly into the spout. After drinking, he said: "It's the first time I drink like this. It's really shameful. It's a pity that I can never drink such a good wine again." After thinking about it, he broke the flask.
Then he sat on the chair and laughed wildly.
Wang Fen drank poisoned wine and committed suicide, while Xu You and others took the opportunity to escape. This time the conspiracy against the emperor came to an end, and there will not be another conspiracy against Liu Hong. Because even if they don't do it
