It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 345 Rumors spread and people have different intentions

How cruel is Zhang Fang?
He robbed all the wealthy families in Luoyang and packed all the rare treasures in the palace into trucks. Almost all the treasures accumulated since the Wei and Jin Dynasties were wiped out. In name, he wanted to move west to Chang'an to help the emperor Sima Zhong bring him to the new palace, but in fact he planned to keep it all for himself.

He also did something that outraged both humans and gods.

He first took the opportunity to rob many palace ladies and use them as military prostitutes. Later, due to lack of food, the robbed palace ladies were killed one by one to use as military rations.

Yang Xianrong can't control these things.

The concubines left by the late emperor Sima Yan and the beauties of the emperor Sima Zhong who had not left all came to Jinyong City and begged Yang Xianrong to take them to Chang'an to join Sima Zhong.

Yang Xianrong did not come forward, but asked Zhang Liang to count the number of people, and after recording them one by one, he arranged an ox cart for them to be in his marching team.

Because Yang Xianrong had a thousand forbidden troops in his hands and was relatively independent, Zhang Fang did not join in, but asked them to follow him and never leave.

Yang Xianrong still said nothing and let the phoenix chariot move forward slowly.

But in fact, she was not in the phoenix chariot, but was sitting in the black carriage of the Yang family, hiding among the forbidden army.

Neither Mao Hongmao nor Lu Zhu was following them, and gradually, even Yang Xiankang disappeared. With so many people walking on the road, it would be hard to tell if there were only a few missing. Zhang Fang came over to greet Yang Xianrong and say a few words at the beginning. But he didn't come over later because Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea, came over.

Sima Yue's banner was to ask Emperor Sima Zhong to return the capital to Luoyang.

He led his brothers to form a powerful army, overcoming thorns and obstacles along the way, with great momentum. Although the people of Jin also hated him, they were more willing to make way for Sima Yue than Zhang Fang.

Seeing this situation, Sima Yong appointed Zhang Fang as the Commander-in-Chief and led 100,000 troops to meet the enemy. At this time, Zhang Fang, Yang Xianrong and others just marched to Bashang, and stopped here without moving.

At this time, the world was spreading the news that "Zhang Fang is about to end the troubled times and become the overlord of the world." Some people vividly described the old turtle shell pattern in Luoshui River, the square stone tablet in Bailong Temple, and some even said , the reason why Zhang Fang kept Yang Xianrong, the queen of the Jin Dynasty, in his army was because he knew that she was the "Feng Ming" and anyone who was with her could become the emperor.

Rumors spread quickly.

Even the old turtle was described as a golden turtle with golden armor, exuding an endless aura. Some people even said that this old turtle could speak human language and sang the ballad again.

"The river map has four directions, with yin and yang within it. Generals fly all over the sky, but there is only one emperor throughout the ages."

The most important thing is that everyone knows that Zhang Fang robbed the blood jade that Sima Ying found, and this blood jade is even more precious than the national jade seal, and has the magical ability to communicate with the sky. The pattern presented by the blood jade alludes to Zhang Fang’s upcoming emperorship.

When the rumor reached Zhang Fang's ears, he was very happy. He also talked about the taste of old turtle meat mixed with rice wine, which made him greedy. He also asked his men to count his 100,000 troops and set up camp in Bashang, looking to keep it there permanently.

When the rumors reached Yang Xianrong's ears, she was watching Sima Jing writing a letter to Sima Zhong, writing about what she did and what she ate today, but she was in a bad mood because she didn't eat enough. Yang Xianrong asked He Jiunian and Zhao Ran not to mix with Zhang Fang, but to eat and march alone, and even if they were marching among his troops, they must not let others disrupt their pace.

Yang Xianyong followed her and asked quietly: "Do you want to prepare another dragon robe for Zhang Fang, and I can put it in his tent at night?"

"That's not necessary." Yang Xianrong couldn't laugh or cry, "I would rather trouble my brother to go to Chang'an now. It's best to make myself miserable, panic, and go to Sima Yong."

"Isn't Mao Hongmao gone?" Yang Xianyong asked.

"There are only about ten embroidered messengers in Chang'an City. Their spread speed should not be fast enough or powerful enough. After the eldest brother is gone, go see the emperor first and ask Zhang Du to take you to Sima Yong. Anyway, it means Zhang Fang's journey Don’t talk about those miracles.”

Yang Xianyong nodded, "Then you should pay more attention. I'll be right back."

"I have nothing to do here. Now that He Jiunian and Zhao Ran are here, I am much safer than you." Yang Xianrong thought for a moment, then handed the embroidered messenger's jade ring to him, "I want to see you again. Princess Pingyang, just say that I will fight to the death to be innocent, so I will give this thing back to her.”

"...Third sister..." Yang Xianyong was still very worried, "Otherwise, let He Jiunian go?"

"That's not possible, it's best for you to go." Yang Xianrong immediately shook his head, "I also want Cui Xi to go with you. After all, she should cry in front of Princess Pingyang, and then talk about the escape of the beautiful concubines. a little better."

"I'm not going." Cui Xi immediately shook her head, "Let Aunt Xian go."

"That's right, she should be more suitable." Yang Xianrong watched as Aunt Xian walked in with hot water, "She should be more contagious and effective when she cries."

This time it was Grandma Qian's turn to panic, and she asked with a look of panic: "Where are you going?"

"Meet Princess Pingyang." Yang Xianrong's big eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, "Mother Xian, go and cry to Princess Pingyang. Cry hard, saying that we have nothing to eat or drink, and we want to come to Chang'an, but Zhang Fang doesn't agree. , you came out secretly to deliver the letter."

"Okay, I can do this." Aunt Xian is from Jiangnan Shou Ma. She is very good at this kind of crying scene. "Then I can't go with General Sheep. It will be more effective if we go separately."

Since everyone knew that Yang Xianrong wanted to kill Zhang Fang, they all actively participated in it, made suggestions, and did a lot of things. Rumors can spread, and they all rely on the embroidered messenger.

When the rumors reached Sima Yong's ears, he kept sneering, slapping the table and shouting: "He Zhang Fang is just a kid from the market. He became a general only after being promoted by me. Does he still want to be emperor now? How ridiculous." Extremely good!”

Sima Zhong happened to be sitting next to him and looked at the scene of falling snow in Chang'an. He said anxiously: "Send someone to kill him quickly. My sheep is still in his hand. If you don't go, I will go with my army." kill him."

"Your Majesty, you should stay here honestly." When Sima Yong looked at this puppet emperor, he had no respect at all, so he left with these words.

Sima Zhong was stunned, and then asked Zhang Du, who was standing beside him: "My sheep is so smart, nothing will happen to him, right?"
