Zhang Rang yelled at the bodyguard: "Since there is no way out, the only option is to fight to the death!" But just after the fight, many bodyguards died, and the rest knelt down and surrendered. Seeing this situation, Zhang Rang had no choice but to turn around and kowtow to the emperor again, thanking him and saying: "Your Majesty loves himself, I wait for death!" After speaking, he jumped into the river to commit suicide. Duan Gui didn't have the courage, and wanted to run away, but he was killed by Min Gong throwing a knife from behind after walking a few steps.Blood spurted over and splashed on the emperor's left sleeve, and the emperor let out an exclamation, which made him go limp.Fortunately, King Chen Liu was by his side and supported him.

Seeing that the emperor was frightened, Min Gong hurried forward to help him, which stabilized the emperor's beating heart. Min Gong supported the emperor and King Chenliu to return to the palace. Since all the candles had been used up, it was almost impossible to move. Ming Gong suddenly saw fluorescent lights flickering in the grass. The light illuminates the road with candles, leading the emperor step by step. After walking with great difficulty for a long time, I vaguely realized that there was a private house in front of me.Only then did Ming Gong feel happy, and went to knock on the door himself.In fact, the family had already heard the sound of hacking and killing at the mouth of the Pingjin River, so they had to open the door, but knelt on the ground begging for mercy.Min Gong said kindly: "We have nothing to do with the common people when we kill the eunuchs. Now the emperor is here, and he is struggling, so he asks for a cart."

The master heard this, and said repeatedly: "There are, there are, just take it and use it." After borrowing the trolley, Min Gong defended in front, let the emperor and King Chenliu sit on the cart, and the soldiers took turns pushing it.After a long time, I arrived at Luoshe and borrowed two horses.The emperor rode one horse alone, and Min Gong and King Chenliu rode one together.After another three miles to the south, they saw a large area of ​​torchlight. There was no doubt that this was their own troops. Mingong immediately shouted loudly: "The emperor is here! Quickly come to the rescue!"

After shouting twice, they heard that the people who came were Yuan Shao, Bao Xin, Chun Yuqiong, etc. They came here to find the emperor.As soon as they heard the voice of "the emperor is here", they exclaimed in surprise and joy, and a group of people rode forward. When they saw the emperor, they got off their horses and knelt down. The emperor actually saved a lot of trouble, and told everyone to get up quickly, the most important thing is to return to the palace now, otherwise the people in the palace will die of panic. So, everyone got on their horses one after another to protect the emperor.

At daybreak, when I was walking near Xianyang Garden, I suddenly saw a large group of people and horses walking in front of me, all in darkness, just like the dark clouds half a day before the arrival of a storm.The emperor on the horse didn't know where the army horses came. He was secretly surprised by such a large lineup.It was King Chen Liu who had sharp eyes and saw the word "Dong" on the flag from a distance. Yuan Shao immediately said, "It must be Dong Zhuo's troops." It was indeed Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army who came. Ever since Dong Zhuo received He Jin's edict, he responded positively and came from Xiliang. He wanted to go straight to Luoyang, but because He Jin and others had different opinions, they blocked him from stationing in Mianchi.He was very puzzled, but he had no excuse to approach Luoyang for a while.After he learned of the Luoyang Incident, he felt that the time had come, so he was so unhappy that he quickly mobilized the barracks and led troops westward.Halfway through the journey, he saw that the palace was on fire, and the flames reflected a large part of the sky, and his desire was also burned red, so he ordered the horses to step up the night march without stopping, and he called on his subordinates:

"The capital city is undergoing a mutiny. How can our army sit idly by? Advance troops quickly to meet the changes." When Yuan Shao and others were protecting the emperor and King Chen Liu met Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army had already marched all night.Dong Zhuo was riding with his troops when a soldier came to report: "The emperor is ahead." Dong Zhuo knew that the emperor had left the capital because of a mutiny, and obviously he hadn't closed his eyes all night, so he couldn't help sighing: What a big accident! Dong Zhuo stopped marching immediately and greeted the emperor at Beimanban.

The emperor was guarded by Yuan Shao and his party, and they stood opposite, and Dong Zhuo paid the emperor the courtesy of a monarch and a minister. The emperor saw that Dong Zhuo was fully armed with heavy troops, and he couldn't help being a little afraid.In a panic, they only cared about their tears and didn't know what to do. The two sides were silent for a while, and the sound of the wind blowing Dong Jun's banner could be heard. Seeing this, Lu Zhi rode up to Dong Zhuo alone and ordered: "There is an order to stop the soldiers." As soon as Dong Zhuo saw Lu Zhi, he immediately remembered the many unpleasant things between him and Lu Zhi, so he refused to buy it, and ridiculed on the spot: "The public and others are the ministers of the country. They can't correct the royal family and make the country turbulent. Have?"

After all, he rode alone and surpassed Lu Zhi until the emperor came to pay his respects. The emperor, who was already a bit timid, saw Dong Zhuo's arrogant attitude and didn't know what to do. His whole body trembled and he couldn't answer.
