On the Spring Festival, the whole of Luoyang could be said to have become a sea of ​​joy. Although it had already darkened, the streets and alleys of Luoyang were becoming more and more lively.

Almost every household had a fire lit in front of the doors. The children were throwing bamboo tubes into the fire. The bamboo tubes were closed due to hollowness. They immediately expanded and exploded and made crackling sounds, just like firecrackers.

The reason why firecrackers were called firecrackers in later generations was actually related to the ancient folk custom. There were no firecrackers in this era, so bamboos were thrown into the fire and made a blast, so they were called firecrackers.

This means expelling plagues and disasters in folk customs.

While the children were happily setting off firecrackers, they were parading with lanterns in the streets and alleys, and the stages were full of enthusiasm, and adults also had their own fun.

The big and small taverns ushered in the hottest time of their year. Every tavern was filled with lights and crowds of people, and the air seemed to be filled with the fragrance of wine and food.

In comparison, the cocktail party at the Qinwang Mansion seemed a little tepid, and it ended early and everyone went to their respective places.

In the palace, lanterns were hung high, but they looked very quiet.

The emperor, who had no intention of wine and food, even more unwilling to celebrate, came to the palace hall early and paced back and forth anxiously.

Cao Jie's eyes moved with the emperor's movement, his expression was a little cold, and he couldn't help but say, "Why should your Majesty be so anxious?

Let's just leave our destiny."

The emperor could not be so free and easy. He stopped and frowned and said, "I wonder if Liu Ren and the others have taken action?"

…” Cao Jie said: “It’s still early now. Liu Ren and his friends should act after the hour. In addition, they need to gather the personnel of the three gentry families, so they won’t be so fast.

Your Majesty should take a break while it is still early.”

The emperor frowned and shook his head, walked to the dragon throne and sat down, and said, "Where can I rest at this time!"

Time passed slowly in the waiting, and in the emperor's feeling, it was as long as several years had passed.

The emperor could not suppress his anxiety and looked outside, and the noise and lively sounds continued to come from his ears.

The emperor couldn't help but ask, "When is it?"

Cao Jie said: "It should have entered the middle hour."

When the emperor heard that when he was Zi Shi, he became restless, stood up, frowned and said, "It's already Zi Shi Shi, why haven't there any movement?"

Just as Cao Jie was about to speak, a huge noise suddenly came from outside, as if a large group of people rushed into the palace.

The emperor couldn't help but look happy and shouted, "Here you come!"

At this moment, a eunuch rushed in and said happily: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, they have entered the palace! The guards were caught off guard and they are about to come here!"

The emperor shouted in endless surprise: "That's great! That's great!"

I walked to the door quickly and hoped that they would arrive soon.

After a while, a huge sound of fighting came from outside the courtyard where he lived, as if the people who came to rescue him had a fierce battle with the guards.

However, such a huge and intense sound seemed to be drowned in the noisy and bustling Spring Festival night, and did not attract the attention of the people outside the palace at all.

The huge fighting sounded and calmed down for less than a quarter of an hour.

Then I saw many people rushing in from the front door of the bedroom.

The emperor was overjoyed and wanted to meet him immediately. However, after taking a step, the queen next to him grabbed him.

The emperor turned his head and looked at the queen, with a puzzled look on his face.

The queen said with a serious expression: "It's Dian Wei who came in!" The emperor was startled and looked forward quickly. At this time, the other party had already arrived not far away. Everyone was wearing Qin army armor, with murderous aura. The bald giant man in the lead was full of fierce flames. Who else would it be if it were Dian Wei?

!The emperor was so scared that he almost fell to the ground, his face turned pale, his whole body was trembling, and he stammered: "This, how could this happen?

how so?"

Dian Wei led his subordinates to the emperor and the queen.

The emperor was at a loss and subconsciously took a few steps back to avoid it.

Cao Jie stood proudly without fear. Seeing Dian Wei coming to the steps, he immediately shouted sternly: "Dian Wei, what's your intention to dare to trek into the emperor's bedroom?"

Dian Wei stopped and grinned. Dian Wei might have no malice. However, this smile felt even more ferocious than a tiger or wolf in the eyes of the emperor and the queen. In addition to the queen, everyone was trembling with horror, just like a lamb in the cold wind.

Dian Wei threw a bloody head under the steps. The emperor was so scared that his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground with a plop.

Seeing that the emperor was so cowardly, Cao Jie was annoyed and thought that you were so cowardly, so why did you daydream to restore the Han Dynasty all day long?

Cao Jie looked at Dian Wei and shouted sternly: "What do you mean?"

Dian Wei smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous, your lord didn't want me to kill you."

This is the head of Cao Cao's envoy, and his men were killed by us, and no one left.

The lord said that for the sake of the safety of His Majesty and the Queen, in the future, His Majesty and the Queen are not allowed to leave the palace."

Then he waved his hand and came out behind him and guarded the emperor's bedroom.

Except for Cao Jie's face covering, everyone was silent and did not even dare to show off their anger.

After Dian Wei finished all this, he turned around and left the head there.

The emperor was still sank on the ground and was at a loss. Cao Jie glanced at the head and couldn't help but cursed angrily: "What a waste! Why did the second brother send such a useless person!"

After a pause, a sense of confusion arose in his heart. He only felt that what happened just now was obviously Dian Wei and the others had already known about the rescue of the emperor in advance and set up an ambush in advance to capture people in the future. But how did they know?

How did the news leak?

I couldn't figure it out for a moment, so I put it aside for the time being.

He looked at the head, and felt that it was really not good to put the head under the steps, so he shouted at the eunuch next to him, "Take the head down and bury it."

Several eunuchs looked at each other and did not dare to step forward for a while.

Cao Jie suddenly became annoyed and shouted sternly: "Didn't you hear what I said?"

Several eunuchs were so scared that they rushed over, picked up their heads and ran towards the pond.

Cao Jie turned around and glanced at the emperor, with a look of regret on his face, but walked over and helped the emperor up.

The emperor was shocked and asked at a loss: "Queen, what should I do now?"

The queen said: "What else can I do now? I can only leave it to fate!"

The emperor swallowed and couldn't speak.

Seeing the emperor like this, the queen sighed secretly and comforted: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Then Lu Bu obviously did not want to murder Your Majesty, otherwise Dian Wei would have taken action just now!"

When the emperor heard this, his panic and helpless heart suddenly felt relieved and nodded.

The queen said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, I'll help you down and rest."

The emperor couldn't help but nodded, just wanting to go back to the room to sleep quickly so as to escape the current cruel reality.

Cao Jie was in charge of the emperor walking towards the bedroom. The emperor was hunched over. Although he was not old, he gave people the feeling of being old.

Several eunuchs took the head to the pond, quickly threw it down, dug a hole on the spot, buried the head.

It was over, and the few people who were so shocked that they wanted to clean up, but suddenly saw an officer appearing in front of them.

Several people were so scared that they were shocked, and they couldn't help but kneel down, kowtowed, "General, general, let go, let go!"

The officer smiled slightly and said, "I can't afford the title of general."

I have something to tell you, and you all stand up."

Several people looked at each other, stood up with support and lowered their heads, and felt up and down.

The officer said: "You are also considered the people of the King of Qin, are you willing to serve the King of Qin?"

When several eunuchs heard this, they felt flattered and quickly expressed their loyalty.

The officer said: "What I am telling you now is actually relaying the meaning of the King of Qin.

Since you are willing to serve the King of Qin, you are the subordinates of the King of Qin."

The older eunuch hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "The King of Qin has his own will, and the servant will go to the soup and step on the fire and leave it alone!"

Several other eunuchs also quickly made a statement.

The officer smiled slightly and whispered to the eunuchs.

Several eunuchs bowed to their promise and expressed that they would fulfill their mission.

In the Qin Palace, the Qin Prince's Princess and Ailang's daughters were still drinking and having fun with the family members of the civil and military in the backyard.

However, Ailang stood outside the study, looking at the noisy night sky, as if thinking about something.

Dian Wei, dressed in military uniform, stepped in quickly and clasped his fists at Ailang and said, "Lord, everything has been solved."

Ailang nodded, smiled bitterly, and said sarcastically: "This emperor has no ability but daydreaming all day long! He probably always thinks that the servants took over his family's property, and he is unwilling to accept it!"

He said to Dian Wei: "Thank you for your hard work, go down and rest."

Dian Wei clasped his fists and agreed, but then hesitated and hesitant.

Ailang was surprised to see Dian Wei look like this and asked angrily: "Lao Dian, what are you doing?

When did you become like a woman?”

Dian Wei's mighty man, who was big and thick, turned red and his cheeks red. He asked embarrassedly: "Lord, can I go to the backyard to pick Hua Zheng home?"

Not long ago, after Ai Lang returned from Xichuan, he saw the love between Hua Zheng and Dian Wei. Although he didn't know what happened between them, he thought it was a good thing, so he personally presided over the marriage for them. Now Dian Wei and Hua Zheng are already a couple.

Hua Zheng's current identity is not only a medical officer, but also the family of a famous general under Ailang.

After hearing Dian Wei's words, Ailang laughed and joked: "After having sex for a long time, you guy misses your wife! Go!"

Dian Wei was very happy, thanked him quickly and rushed to the backyard.
