The so-called "Letter from Luoyang" is of course not just a "letter from Luoyang", but the news from the palace.

The great eunuch Song Dian, who had been chopped off by her two fingers back then, is still performing his duties with all his heart and soul, sending news from the palace to the outside of the pass conscientiously.

Even if a letter is sent from the capital to the northwest, it will take more than ten days to arrive even if a good horse runs away to death.

So far, Song Dian's letters are just routine reports. For example, after a certain eunuch became favored by the villagers, he ran amok with Uncle He Guojiu, or His Majesty favored the second son Liu Xie, and repeatedly thought of abolishing the elder and establishing the younger.

These things can be big or small, but generally speaking, they are harmless (at least to Qin Chu), and Qin Miao, who is in charge of handing over the eunuchs, also understands what she means. In the family letter, send it together, and it will be delivered around the 25th of each month.

Sometimes, the content of Fufu's family letter has more gold content than Song Dian's secret letter-compared with the short-sighted early birds, the real vested interests can often see more things.

She opened the envelope with a normal expression, and the first thing she saw was a greeting letter from farther south.

Guo Jia was sitting with Jia Xu and Cai Yan drinking tea together. If he felt something, he suddenly turned his head and saw the letter paper in Qin Chu's hand, which was different from the usual rules. From a distance, the handwriting was ugly. few.

His heart tightened, his hands trembled, and with a "pop", he pressed the teacup back on the table.

Qin Chu had just seen the words "Sun Ce" and "Lujiang" clearly, and before he had time to read them carefully, the noise he made caught his attention, and he turned his head to look at Guo Jia who was tensed up.

"Ok?"

Jia Xu's ability to observe people's words and emotions had reached the peak. Seeing Qin Chu raised his head in doubt, he immediately shook his feather fan, lowered his head, and fanned himself in the northwest April to enjoy the cool air without distraction.

Cai Yan held the tea bowl and breathed calmly, unaware of the surrounding affairs, blowing away the heat in the bowl a little, and then slowly took a sip.

The two reached a subtle consensus on the term "time is quiet and good".

Guo Jia: "..."

The unreliable colleagues only watch the fun, and the lord... the sweetheart also looked over, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and maintain his scheming persona, interrupting Qin Chu's memories of his childhood without knowing what to do. asked:

"My lord, don't you read Luo Yang's letter first?"

This "couldn't it be" is really full of loyalty, and I can't wait to paste the words "don't care about Sun Ce" directly on the forehead. Lower your head.

If the level is so low, it really doesn't look like it came from a dignified military commander. Guo Jia immediately made up for it:

"The letter in April was nearly ten days early. I heard that six horses had been changed on the way. This is abnormal, or something happened to Luoyang."

This is also nonsense, if the three counselors in Qin Chu's account can all sit in the conference hall, she will naturally know the problem.

What's more, with Qin Chu's reading speed of ten lines at a glance, it doesn't matter which one she reads first. Guo Jia's words are really strange.

However, people are always obsessed with the authorities, Qin Chu's sense of smell is out of order, and he didn't smell the old vinegar in Guo Jia's words at all. She actually nodded in agreement: "I'll come right away."

Then he took out two letter silks with aloe smell, put Xun Yu's and Sun Ce's letters on the other side, and then took out the one sent from Fu's house.

It's still business.Guo Jia didn't care about the matter of "Xun Wenruo came anyway", stared at Qin Chu's eyes that kept looking down, waited for a moment, guessed that she should have finished watching, and then asked, "How is the situation?"

"..." Qin Chu's face turned serious, and he didn't answer.

She threw the bamboo slips into Guo Jia's hand, and immediately found the last piece of cloth bag, almost hurriedly opened it, and pulled out the eunuch's handwritten silk cloth from it.

Guo Jia immediately took the letter from Fu's family and spread it on the table so that Cai Yan and Jia Xu could see it clearly.

The three read it word for word.

"Emperor collapsed, the He clan was monopolizing power, and the eunuchs were unstable, so they can return in a few days..."

Cai Yan read out the contents of the letter word by word, and his face became more and more ugly. When he read "I will return soon", I was a little out of breath.

The Northwest Qiang has not been eradicated, so someone must sit in the town.But in the blink of an eye, such a big event happened to Luo Yang... It was almost impossible to stay in the frontier safely.

But who can guard the Northwest?

There are Qiang people in the west who are ready to move, and the rebels in the east have not yet been resolved... Once Qin Chu leaves, if there is no suitable replacement, Liangzhou may be in chaos again.

On her side, she was full of worries, while Qin Chu was still frowning and flipping through the palace secret letter.

Song Dian was an old eunuch who had experienced the court coup in the first year of Guanghe. He was deeply trusted by the emperor and had a close relationship with the few remaining eunuchs. There is no end to it.

According to what he said, the servants in the palace who pretended to be grandsons with their tails between their tails because they were punished by eunuchs before were a little anxious again.

The first emperor liked the little prince Liu Xie, and even the eunuchs had the best relationship with him. It is said that before he left, the first emperor entrusted them to support Liu Xie—who knows if it is true or not.

However, the relatives who were in power again at this time insisted on "according to the rules" to support the eldest prince Liu Bian to ascend the throne.Everyone knows the reason behind it, because Liu Bian is the son of Empress He, and has a blood connection with He Tianran.

Around the question of "who is the emperor of tomorrow", the eunuchs of the foreign relatives launched a heated discussion, and the debate stage was almost demolished.

The letter was sent here, and it was indeed going to be typed.

He Jin thinks about re-enacting the classics every day, preparing to reenact the coup d'état in the first year of Guanghe, sharpening his sword against the eunuchs; the eunuchs have nothing to do except the power in the palace and the eyeliner everywhere, and they are terrified to death. Prepare to act first and trick the relatives into killing them.

What Fu's family letter said was right, indeed, when she was going back to Beijing, He Jin had already planned to call foreign aid into the city to kill the eunuch.

Qin Chu pondered this matter again in his heart.

She does know the history, but some things are different in the book than in front of her eyes.Those incidents that have been brought up in a few strokes in later generations happened suddenly, like five thunderbolts, full of foreshadowing:

Once the emperor died, Dong Zhuo went to Beijing, which was the head of troubled times and the greatest disaster of the Han Dynasty.

She was speechless for a while, staring at the letter and thinking about it suddenly, but the three counselors already had an idea.

Jia Xu shook his feather fan and said concisely: "I must go back to Luoyang."

Cai Yan nodded and added: "Take a small number of elite soldiers to the outskirts of Beijing and wait for the opportunity to come out."

Guo Jia: "..."

When did these two get along so well.

He was inexplicably squeezed out by his young and middle-aged friends, and belatedly joined the discussion:

"good.

He Jin is courageous and unplanned, lacks plan and decision when it comes to major issues, no matter what he does, it is very likely to cause a fire.Our army is stationed in the suburbs, at any time—"

"You can take action at any time to influence the court situation. Besides, I was sent to the Northwest five years ago. Even if nothing happens, I can still be said to be returning to Beijing to report on my duties." Qin Chu understood, followed the second half of his sentence, and winked at Guo Jia blinked.

His heart was beating violently inappropriately, but his expression was still the same, showing his usual lazy smile: "My lord understands Jia."

At this moment, there was a knock on the hall door outside, and the guard reported through the door: "My lord, the generals have all arrived."

Cai Yan immediately got up when she heard the words, walked forward and opened the door, met Gao Yue, the leader, and nodded to her, and stepped aside: "Please hurry up, three."

Gao Yue, Dian Wei, and Pound took their seats in turn.

Three counselors and three generals, these are Qin Chu's confidantes as the county guard.

Except for Gao Yue and Guo Dian who were the first to follow her, Cai Yan was her "stolen" counselor, and the rest of Pound Jiaxu was a county official who was born in the northwest and was transferred by her early in the morning. Have been together for over four years.

"I won't gossip," Qin Chu stretched out his index finger and tapped on the table, "The emperor is dead, and the government is in chaos. I want to lead my troops to Luoyang. Which one of you will follow me?"

Gao Yue immediately said: "Subordinate——"

"You can't," Qin Chu interrupted her neatly, "You have been with me the longest, and besides me, the female soldiers in Xiliang listen to your words the most. You have to stay here and guard Liangzhou for me."

"... Oh." Gao Yue withdrew his clasped hands in a little disappointment.She has been with Qin Chu for 11 years, traveling south and north, going back to Luoyang with her. Cai Zhaoji was stolen by her and the lord together. Suddenly, she found that she could not always be by her side, and it was hard to accept for a while.

"My lord, this subordinate wishes to follow General Gao on behalf of him!"

Qin Chu glanced at Pang De and found that he was extremely excited.Probably because he had no chance to go to the south before, he was uncharacteristically calm and enthusiastically recommended himself.

"Jia is also willing to go." Guo Jia said quickly.

The other two members of the counselor team, one begged Qin Chu to take her out of Luoyang, and the other held hot tea every day and sat at the door with a bed to watch the flowers bloom and fall. They didn’t want to compete with Guo Jia for trouble. .

Finally, Qin Chu finalized:

This trip brought counselor Guo Jia, general Pang De, and she led 2000 elite soldiers to Luoyang for two days of rectification, and then set off after handing over Northwest military affairs to Gao Yuedianwei——

——It should be so.

However, time did not give people a chance.

That night, the envoy of the emperor ran away and killed a good horse under him, and finally sent the secret edict from the new emperor Liu Bian to the prefect of Jincheng:

"It is said that Fu Chu, the master of Wuyang Pavilion, will return to Beijing immediately."

This handwritten letter was unclear, almost endlessly ordering her soldiers and horses, on the contrary, she couldn't be neglected.

There is more than one place in her memory of the grandiose journey to Luoyang.Take Dong Zhuo who is also in Xiliang as an example. This person received a secret letter from General He Jin, which clarified the situation, and said that it was true and righteous, and it seemed that it was really for the emperor's eyes and ears.Dong Zhuo then immediately led 20 elite soldiers, claiming [-], to Luoyang's "Qing Emperor's side".

However, the letter in her hand is lacking in head and tail, and is vague. She can't even remember her position as "General of Yueqi" at this time, and she still uses the title of "Master of Wuyang Pavilion" many years ago, but the order comes as soon as she opens her mouth. ——

This letter is a letter from the young emperor.
