Chapter 10 Burning Luoyang
Zhang Ming's calm heart was finally relieved.

He only got the news yesterday that Dong Zhuo was defeated in Hulaoguan and had already returned to Luoyang. At this point in time, he should be discussing the matter of moving the capital.

Because Zhang Ming used to ignore the time of government affairs because of too much fun in the past, Zhang Ming was not notified of such an urgent convening of the court meeting this time, and Dong Zhuo directly called it in the name of His Majesty.

Of course, Zhang Ming doesn't want to be in the past, anyway, he was a standard puppet in the past, so it's better to continue to create a willful, fatuous, and lewd image now.

Of course, the civil and military officials still had to pass the court meeting that Dong Zhuo held in the name of the emperor. After all, after such a long time, the civil and military officials had long been accustomed to the situation where the emperor was not in court and Dong Zhuo was in power. Only Wang Yun knew that the emperor was hiding his clumsiness.

Just last night, Wang Yun received a gift of the Four Treasures of the Study from the little Huangmen Cui Ming. At first he thought it was a wrong gift. After all, Cui Ming is a young eunuch who has just risen. How could he know Situ, let alone that Cui Ming also gave him such an exquisite set of the Four Treasures of the Study for no apparent reason, which made him feel very strange.

But he soon thought that it might be a gift from the little emperor in his name. Thinking of this possibility, Wang Yun picked up the Four Treasures of the Study and examined it carefully.

After about a moment, Wang Yun discovered the imperial edict hidden in the interlayer of the pen holder, which was a handwritten letter, densely written with the message that the little emperor wanted to convey.

After Wang Yun carefully read the letter, a lot of doubts arose in his heart, especially what was written in the letter was about to happen.

You must know that even Wang Yun himself knew about Dong Zhuo Lv Bu’s defeat at Hulao Pass on the night Dong Zhuo returned to Luoyang, but the letter he got was written in detail about Dong Zhuo Lv Bu’s defeat and return to Beijing overnight , which was enough to surprise him.

After all, before he got the news of Dong Zhuo and Lv Bu's defeat, he once thought that the eighteen princes were just bluffing, and they didn't have the strength and courage to really win Sishui Pass, Hulao Pass, and defeat the Xiliang soldiers led by Dong Zhuo.

As for the move to Chang'an in the east and the burning of Luoyang recorded in this letter, he actually didn't believe it. After all, Emperor Guangwu made the decision to make Luoyang the capital. He is just a reckless man who dared to move the capital without authorization, so how could so many loyal ministers agree with Dong Zhuo's idea.

Of course, Wang Yun also carefully read some analysis made by the little emperor, but he was still not sure, after all, such a major event as moving the capital could be done so easily.

As for what was written later, Wang Yun had more doubts.

But today in the court hall, when he heard Dong Zhuo discussing the matter of moving east to Chang'an, he was stunned. What the little emperor said in his letter about moving the capital was actually true.

However, Situ Yang Biao, Situ Xun Shuang, and Taiwei Huang Wan openly opposed Dong Zhuo's move to the capital, as recorded in the book.

Of course, Dong Zhuo had already made a decision to move the capital, and the so-called court meeting was just a process, so after the meeting, Wang Yun and others returned home, ready to pack up and move to Chang'an.

After Wang Yun returned home, he picked up the notebook again and began to read it carefully. If Wang Yun still had doubts about what he read last night, then he checked it again today, and he was only surprised that the little emperor actually took what happened today. In the affairs of the court meeting, one can think of how smart this little emperor is, or who is around to give advice.

As for the things recorded in this handbook, Wang Yun naturally believed it. Afterwards, Wang Yun ordered the housekeeper to inform his family members who were doing business in Luoyang to pack up quickly and prepare to move to Chang'an, and not to stay in Luoyang any longer.

And Wang Yun himself hurried to Yang Biao's place, and he also ordered his servants to call Huang Wan and Xun Shuang at the same time. His relationship with these three people was already very good.

When the four met at Yang Biao's house, an order was issued, and Dong Zhuo immediately dismissed Yang Biao, Huang Wan, Xun Shuang and others from their positions, and all of this was just as written in the little emperor's handbook, Yang Biao, Huang Wan and Xun Shuang were both stunned.

Because in their original memory, this little emperor only knew how to play all day after he ascended the throne, especially a new palace was set up in the harem, which was specially used for playing. Even the number of visits to the government has become less and less.

As old ministers of the great Han Dynasty, they have long lost hope in this little emperor.

It's just that the letter Wang Yun took out today and the previous meeting really surprised them.

That's right, the little emperor is so smart, the great Han country is saved, and we veterans should actively cooperate.

Thus, the four veteran ministers began to discuss strategies.

Of course, when Zhang Ming thought that he was about to move westward to Chang'an, he still felt quite uneasy. After all, he had been in this world for ten months, and he had never even been out of the palace. Now he was going to move to Chang'an by carriage. I have never been in a carriage before, and I don't know if it is comfortable to sit in a carriage.

However, Zhang Ming soon thought that Dong Zhuo wanted to kill the rich households in the city, take away the wealth of Luoyang City, and burn Luoyang. He remembered that the person outside the palace of Cui Ming was a businessman in Luoyang, and he should also be one of the wealthy households. One, if he had notified him in advance to move to Luoyang, he might be able to use it when he resisted Dong Zhuo in the future. After all, every penny was more security.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ming called Cui Ming and asked Cui Ming to inform his partner to pack up his wealth and move to Chang'an.

Two days later, Dong Zhuo really ordered to send five thousand cavalry under his command to forcibly arrest wealthy households in Luoyang. There were thousands of them in total.

Afterwards, Dong Zhuo let his subordinates rape and plunder again, rape women at will, and rob the people of food. The sound of crying in the whole Luoyang was so loud that even Zhang Ming, who was far away in the palace, could hear it clearly.Zhang Ming lamented that if he seized the world one day, he would surely let the common people in the world live a stable and prosperous life.

Before Dong Zhuo left Luoyang, he asked his subordinates to set fires in various places in Luoyang and burn the houses of the people in Luoyang. Regardless of the lives of the people in Luoyang, the entire city of Luoyang was turned into scorched earth.

What's even more hateful is that Dong Zhuo didn't even spare the dead. He sent troops to dig up the graves of the people in Luoyang, put aside the corpses inside, and took away the gold, silver, treasures and clothes that were inside.

Dong Zhuo's evil deeds, Zhang Ming could hear the palace maids and eunuchs talking every moment in the palace.

He really wanted to kill Dong Zhuo directly by using the "Time Reversal" talent.
