At the same time, outside Luoyang City.
Liu Yao, Dian Wei and Wang Yue personally led 5,000 black armored cavalry and stationed outside the city.
Half a month ago, Liu Hong ordered him to return to Luoyang to report on his work. They traveled almost day and night on the way and barely made it back.
"My lord, isn't it just reporting on your work? I haven't been in such a hurry to report on my work in the past few years."
Liu Yao rolled his eyes at Dian Wei.
"Teacher Huangfu wrote a letter some time ago saying that His Majesty is already terminally ill, and the struggle between relatives and eunuchs is even more crazy."
"From the latest news from Luowang, His Majesty can no longer eat, and even getting out of bed and walking is very difficult. The end is definitely in these few days."
"And we also got news that he has planned to send Prince Liu Xie to the hands of Queen Mother Dong. If it wasn't for the end of his life, how could he bear to send his most beloved prince away?"
Wang Yue looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar Luoyang City in front of him with a calm face.
"Ke Yiying, let the brothers choose a good place outside the city to set up camp. No one is allowed to enter the city without my order!"
At this time, a young man wearing bright armor walked out of the army and bowed to Liu Yao.
"I obey the name of the lord!"
Now Ke Yiying has been promoted from the original scout captain to one of the leaders of the black armor cavalry.
Liu Yao, Wang Yue, and Dian Wei rode directly into Luoyang City.
After entering Luoyang, Wang Yue led the way for the two at the front.
In a blink of an eye, a restaurant with simple decoration but majestic atmosphere stood in front of everyone, as if it had walked out of the long river of history, exuding a faint fragrance of time.
"Yanmenju?" Liu Yao hummed softly, his eyes swept across the vigorous and powerful handwriting on the plaque, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Who would have thought that the elegance of the Zhen family and the business ways of the Guangyao Caravan had quietly infiltrated the capital city of Luoyang?
Wang Yue's eyes were deep, he gently raised his hand, pointed to the half-open carved wooden door, and whispered: "Yanmenju, although it is called a restaurant, it actually hides mysteries. It is a secret place where all parties are intertwined. Countless news, like undercurrents, all converge here and quietly flow to all directions."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yao felt an indescribable curiosity and expectation in his heart, and his footsteps involuntarily stepped towards the door leading to the unknown world. As he slowly stepped in, a wind mixed with the aroma of wine and the scent of ancient wood blew towards him.
……
On the top of the pavilion, the three were carefully led to an elegant seat. The clouds and mist outside the window seemed to be within reach of a corner of the heavenly palace. Soon, the waiter shuttled between the tables and presented the delicacies and wines of Yanmenju one by one, with a fragrant and mouth-watering aroma.
Just as the atmosphere was getting better, a graceful woman with a mysterious and exotic face, holding a delicate fan with intricate patterns, slowly walked into the sight of the three people.
Liu Yao's eyes were involuntarily attracted by this woman, and her facial features aroused subtle ripples in his heart, as if gently touching a distant memory. "Have we... met somewhere?"
Upon hearing this, the woman raised a playful but graceful smile at the corner of her mouth, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts and cleverly keep a distance. "Young master, this is wrong. Could it be that all the women with a little beauty in this world are old friends in your eyes?" Her voice was soft and magnetic, like a clear spring in the desert, which quenched thirst and aroused imagination.
Wang Yue was standing by, with a hint of smile in his eyes, but he did not respond directly. He just shook his head and said softly: "My Lord, you may have remembered it wrongly. This lady is indeed your first meeting."
Liu Yao blinked.
"Then why do I always feel so familiar when I see her?"
"My Lord, of course she is familiar. She is Ke Yiying's biological sister, Ke Yiying."
"Now she is the commander-in-chief of Luowang in Luoyang, in charge of all the news dispatch in Luoyang, and is also the proprietress of Yanmenju."
Liu Yao immediately patted his forehead. No wonder, they looked familiar. It turned out that they were siblings.
Wang Yue looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and asked, "Do you have something to inform me of when you come here this time?"
Ke Yiying nodded lightly, and then said in a charming voice, "He Jin was suddenly summoned to the palace today."
Dian Wei chewed the chicken leg in his hand and said, "He is a general and is summoned to the palace every day. You heard that my master is here and want to come up to see what the jade-faced scholar looks like?"
Ke Yiying smiled slightly, sat at the table, propped up her chin with her hand and looked at the three people.
"Everyone, you may not know yet? The imperial guards have blocked the palace, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, and many soldiersAll the talismans were confiscated, even the talisman in the hand of Lord Huangfu Song was taken away. "
"Now in the entire Luoyang City, no troops can be mobilized."
Liu Yao put down his chopsticks directly after hearing this.
"There is a change in the palace! I'm afraid that His Majesty is no longer able to survive, and the Ten Eunuchs are already plotting to take action."
Dian Wei even put down the chicken leg in his hand and was about to stand up.
"My Lord, what are we still doing here?"
Liu Yao rolled his eyes at Dian Wei.
"What are you anxious about?"
Ke Yiying continued: "The captain of the West Gate Imperial Army also has Queen He's confidants, and they will definitely find a way to stop He Jin from entering the palace."
Sure enough, just as several people were still discussing. Suddenly, a burst of noise came from the street below. "Get out of the way! Get out of the way, all of you!!!" "At this time, a man wearing a Tianwang helmet and golden armor, looking like a nouveau riche, was driving away frantically on the street.
Liu Yao leaned against the window, watching everything happening below, with a disdainful smile on his face, and secretly despised in his heart: "Is this the butcher general who was born as a pig butcher? It's really ridiculous. Look at his arrogant and domineering look, where is the demeanor of a general? He is just a vulgar nouveau riche. "
Liu Yao continued to observe the situation below, and saw that the four-horse Yuanrong chariot was driven by the butcher general, running fast on the street, as if to overturn the whole city.
Liu Yao couldn't help laughing and said: "Look at his driving skills, he is simply ruining this Yuanrong chariot. Such a good car, but he treats it as a toy, it's really a waste of nature. "
The people around him also laughed. Everyone thought that this butcher general was too funny. He had no dignity and solemnity of a general.
Wang Yue also chuckled and said, "The fastest speed in the world is the speed of escaping. This butcher has saved his life today."
Liu Yao looked at the sky that was gradually getting darker. The Luoyang City, which was originally filled with spring breeze, was constantly filled with a murderous atmosphere.
I'm afraid that the general's mansion will be brightly lit tonight.
