Chapter 43 1. Life hangs by a thread

This new official is Wang Yun. Wang Yun, courtesy name Zishi, was born in Taiyuan Qi (now Qi County, Shanxi Province).Young people are good at big festivals, have the ambition to make meritorious deeds, often learn to recite scriptures, and try to shoot day and night.In order to prove how powerful this guy is, "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" also quoted a sentence that Guo Linzong, the leader of the Eastern Han Dynasty, once praised Wang Yun, saying that he was "Wang Zuocai". As long as you are born with steel, you will not be treated as rotten iron and put into the garbage bin.Facts have proved that Wang Yun was not promoted, he is not iron, but steel, and this pure steel is refined day by day.

He made his debut at the age of nineteen, first as an official in the county.At that time, the emperor of the Han Dynasty was Liu Zhi, Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Zhao Jin of the Xiaohuang Gate was in the county, and Wang Yun was ordered to be killed by the county guard. This matter was reported to Luoyang City by Zhao Jin brothers, and he was dazzled by anger. Liu Zhi, the county guard, was taken to prison and executed directly. As the person involved, Wang Yun bid farewell to Jiang Hu for the time being, because he was going back to mourn.However, in the eyes of the scholar-bureaucrats in the Han Dynasty, what Wang Yunshou is not mourning, but tragic.Because the object of his mourning was the sheriff who was killed by Emperor Liu Zhi for killing eunuchs.

Three years later, Wang Yun's mourning period ended and he returned to the county to serve again.Unfortunately, this time he stabbed a hornet's nest again. The situation is like this, there is an evil young man in the county with a bad reputation. It is estimated that he has gone through the back door, and the county guard wants to worship him as a county official.When Wang Yun learned about this, he went to reason with the sheriff. The sheriff was impatient and arrested him with a yell, ready to kill him. This matter spread out for some reason, and the governor sent someone to send an emergency order, and begged to do it for Bie Jia, so Wang Yun was rescued.

This hornet's nest, Wang Yun poked it without any danger.Soon, the three princes of the Han Dynasty recommended him together and worshiped him as the censor.Then the Yellow Turban Army came together, and he was worshiped as the governor of Yuzhou, and he attacked Zhang Jiao and others. If Huangfu Song ranked first and Zhu Jun second among the generals who wiped out the Yellow Turban Army, then Wang Yun should be the third.After Zhu Jun, Wang Yun led his troops into the Yellow Turban Army's lair, and seized a batch of secret letters in their headquarters. Among these letters, there are letters between Zhang Rang's disciples and the Yellow Turban Army.Wang Yun didn't say anything, packed up the found letters urgently, and sent them to Luoyang City quickly.After Liu Hong received the letter, he immediately summoned Zhang Rang for questioning.

When Zhang Rang heard this, he immediately became stupid. Zhang Rang was stupid, but not yet.He has been around Liu Hong for many years, and he dare not say that he has mastered the political kung fu of Lingbo Weibu and Subduing the Dragon's Eighteen Palms, but he still has a set of techniques for resuscitating the dead.Besides, when Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army revolted, didn't some people say that they colluded in rebellion?As a result, after Liu Hong lost his temper, he didn't let it go. He had reason to believe that he could escape death this time as well.The method is to kowtow more, shed tears, shirk responsibility, and say that he was implicated and framed by others.

So, as soon as Zhang Rang saw Liu Hong, he performed the above steps. After the performance, Liu Hong flicked up his dragon sleeves, waved his hand lightly, and sighed to Zhang Rang as gracefully as a fairy: "I know what's going on, let's go, it's none of your business." From the bottom of his heart, Liu Hong still hopes that the big things will be turned into small ones, and the small things will be turned into nothing.He has always firmly believed that Zhang Rang is my father and Zhao Zhong is my mother.Father and mother, how could they betray their son?Besides, what does Zhang Rang's followers have to do with my father Zhang Rang's collusion with the Yellow Turban Army?Obviously, my dad was framed.This is clearly a misunderstanding.

Since it was a misunderstanding and nothing happened to Zhang Rang, something must have happened to Wang Yun. If Wang Yun saw this scene with his own eyes, he might not even have the courage to live.There is a lesson to be learned from heaven and earth, I have lived up to the sky and the king, yet I was betrayed by this bastard emperor. Therefore, Wang Yun, who missed Zhang Rang's vitals, was immediately put on his neck by Zhang Rang's knife.Zhang Rang sent someone to find trouble with Wang Yun and arrested him. God is very good at making jokes. Wang Yun was released from the prison not long after.It was God who saved him.At this time, just in time for the amnesty, Wang Yun was on the list, so he came out.

Zhang Rang, as if he had been tricked, watched helplessly as Wang Yun was released from prison and reinstated as an official, but he had no place to vent his temper.Ten days later, he still broke out.Once again, he succeeded in finding trouble and was going to put Wang Yun in prison. Seeing that Wang Yun is about to go to jail in a dramatic way, Zhang Rang should be satisfied.He may think so, I can catch you twice, but can God save you twice? Yes, God will not save you twice.Zhang Rang thought so, and some people thought so too.This person is the former Taiwei and the current Situ Yangci.

Yang Ci can be regarded as an old man in the officialdom, he has experienced the tricks of eunuchs.He sent someone to tell Wang Yun that you were arrested twice a month. In my opinion, this time must be a bad luck.Rather than being humiliated in jail, why not... If you don't say anything later, everyone can hear it.What Yang Ci meant was to persuade Wang Yun to commit suicide. Yang Ci's views represent the views of everyone, including the staff officers around Wang Yun.They all agreed that Zhang Rang must kill you this time, and you will definitely die.It's better to just commit suicide, so as not to be tortured, and to earn a martyr's honor.

At this time, Wang Yun's staff officer also took out poison and prepared to give Wang Yun a drink.They thought that Wang Yun would not refuse their kindness. At that moment, I saw Wang Yun stand up against the case, and shouted sharply: "I am a minister, and I have been guilty of the king. I should thank the world by prosecuting the emperor. How can there be milk and medicine for death!" That's right, as a minister, the king bestows sins, and if he dies, he must die clearly. If he is dragged to the street and cut off, how can he commit suicide and end up with an unclear reputation?

After Wang Yun finished speaking, he poured the poison on the ground, went out with his head held high, got into the prison car and left. In the Han Dynasty, facing huge injustices, many people committed suicide due to unbearable pressure.But there are also quite a few who can stand up to Mount Tai with the courage to drag themselves out of the knife.For example, Yu Xu, the Pingqiang hero who was framed by eunuchs back then, is a successful case. Back then, Yu Xu was able to escape a catastrophe because of Zhongchang's servant Sun Cheng.Time has passed, and the eunuchs of the Manchu Dynasty, except Comrade Lu Qiang who was a good man, unfortunately committed suicide and became a martyr. None of the eunuchs today is a good thing. Who else can Wang Yun count on to save him? There is no hope. For Wang Yun, he had already died once, and now he died, which is considered a profit.If you can splash blood on the execution ground and tell the sky, it will be even more profitable.But you think so tragically, Zhang Rang and those murderers didn't lose their teeth.If you want to be innocent, they will tell you that if you kill you, you will never be innocent for the rest of your life.He wants to discredit you completely. Apart from making you commit suicide, the other way is to let you die in prison, never to tell the sky. There is no most ruthless, only more ruthless.When scholar-bureaucrats meet eunuchs, it is like a sheep led by a foolish shepherd meets a hungry wolf.In the final analysis, in one word - Wang Yun is dead. is that true? As I said before, once Wang Yun entered the dangerous arena, his auspicious star shines brightly, and good luck continues.This time, it was not God who saved him, but the three masters in the officialdom of the Han Dynasty joined forces to save him.One of them is Yang Ci who sent someone to persuade Wang Yun to commit suicide, the other is General He Jin, and the last one is Taiwei Yuan Wei. The above three people can be described as a luxurious lineup in the officialdom of the Han Dynasty.He Jin is a foreign relative with great energy; Yang Ci has been around for many years and has not been discarded, let alone; Yuan Kai, this person should not be underestimated. We know that there are two major families in Luoyang, and Yuan Kai is from the Yuan family and is Yuan Shao's uncle.Among the scholar-bureaucrat group in the Han Dynasty, Yuan An had the closest relationship with eunuchs.Back then, when Yang Qiu killed Wang Fu, he had thought of killing the Yuan family as well.The reason why that guy had such murderous intentions was because he disliked the Yuan family's hot fight with the eunuch. In addition to eunuchs, the Yuan family also climbed up with relatives.After Ma Yuan, a Confucian master, Ma Rong, came out. Ma Rong's daughter was married to Yuan Kai.There may be many factors. Among the family members, Yuan Kai made his debut the earliest and was promoted the fastest. He even became the head of the three princes.Of course, when Yuan Wei became a captain, Liu Hong should have knocked a lot of money from him. Yang Ci, He Jin, and Yuan Kai used all their strength to write to Liu Hong to speak for Wang Yun. They told Liu Hong this way: Wang Yun was ordered to wipe out the Yellow Turban Army in a very short period of time.In this situation, the minister and the other three dare not pretend to be deaf and dumb. They hope that Wang Yun will have a fair trial so that the world can see and hear. Yang Ci had already told him very tactfully, and they had already seen that the so-called arrest of Wang Yun was not because he was guilty, but because someone deliberately punished him.Of course, the person who wanted to kill him was your father Zhang Rang. Liu Hong looked at Yang Ci and others' memorabilia, and remained silent for a long time. After a long time, he secretly sighed in his heart, it seems that the matter of Wang Yun cannot be dealt with today, the future will be long, let's deal with it another day. Liu Hong issued an edict to absolve Wang Yun of the death penalty and release him.However, after Wang Yun was released from prison, he immediately disappeared in the rivers and lakes.No one knows where he went. According to reliable information, he changed his name and surname and went into hiding. Is Wang Yun afraid? Not afraid. So why hide? He hid, just to practice and wait for the right time. Is he still thinking about revenge? Of course I want to, I'm thinking about it in my dreams.As long as his dream is not shattered, he will always be ready to shine his sword.
