Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 457 Seizing the Door

Seven or eight days later, as expected, hundreds of people with Mengjin, Gongxian and Yanshi accents flocked to Luoyang City.

Luoyang was prosperous and an important place for the Fu clan. Although the city was nine miles around, it still could not meet the daily needs of the citizens. Therefore, there are many residential buildings, markets and other buildings in Luoyang.

Most of the petitioners were fishermen and boatmen, so they were mostly young and strong. Due to the hot weather and the fact that many fishermen and boatmen had no land, life was relatively difficult. Therefore, most of these people only wore a pair of calf trousers and hurried to Luoyang City with their dark upper bodies bare.

The people outside the city were very surprised and could not help but gather around to watch. Some older girls and younger wives suddenly saw so many shirtless men and couldn't help but spit and blushed with embarrassment.

These people held flags and pulled a long piece of cloth with densely signed names on it.

A knowledgeable person explained to the people around him: "Look, this is a petition of ten thousand people, and it is all signed by local people."

When everyone heard this, they all exclaimed: "So, Huang Shoucai is a good man. How did the official in the government catch him? He must be a treacherous minister and traitor!"

Everyone was talking about it, which was exactly the effect Sun Tuiguan wanted to achieve. He had been working with the Henan magistrate for a long time, and after spitting out a lot of benefits, he let these people into the city.

He wanted to put the blame on the head of the previous governor Fan Shangsui in front of everyone to wash away his evil deeds.

After hearing the petition, the fisherman Zhouzi had already rushed over. Sun Tuiguan quickly asked his servants to take out their official uniforms, dress neatly, put on their black gauze hats, and look majestic, and then he led everyone out of the mansion in a swaggering manner.

When Sun Tuiguan arrived near the Wangxi Gate of the North City Gate, he saw a group of people rushing over in a chaotic manner.

Tuiguan Sun endured the discomfort and shouted loudly: "You must not attack the people in the city. I am the Tuiguan of Henan Prefecture. If you have anything to say, just tell me and I will definitely uphold justice for everyone."

Sun Tuiguan had a good idea. He was ready to wait for the petitioners to shout, "Huang Shoucai was unjustly accused. He was caught by the government and thrown into prison. Please clarify the truth and restore his innocence."

At that time, he could respond: "You are wrong, this Huang Shoucai was not captured by me, but was actually the work of the former governor Fan Shangxuan. Now that I know everything about this, even if I give up my black gauze hat, I still have to pay for it." Mr. Huang is innocent!"

When the time comes, he will not only gain fame and profits, but also gain the trust of Governor Xuan Mo. Killing three birds with one stone is really high!

But he never thought that as soon as he said these words, he heard the fishermen and boatmen shouting loudly: "This is the thief who captured Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang has done great work in river management and can save the lives of thousands of families. Now he is captured by this thief who is jealous of his talent and ability." He went to the prison and was tortured, trying to get his way. Don't talk nonsense to him. Anyone who is a traitor and a traitor will be punished!"

Before they finished speaking, the group of people reached into their pants and pulled out a wrist-breaking knife.

Sun Tui's mansion was caught off guard and couldn't help but be shocked. He originally said that this was an arranged script, and everyone was just selling each other well. What kind of shameless person did he not respect martial ethics?

He turned around and wanted to run away, but where could he escape? The crowd rushed up and stabbed Sun Tui to death with just the wrist-breaking knife. They stabbed to death several people.

Sun Tuifu couldn't run more than two steps when someone grabbed him and stabbed him in the heart, killing him on the spot.

The rest of the people were originally watching and eating melons, but they never expected that something unexpected happened, and Sun Tui's house was killed on the spot in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the people finally reacted and screamed loudly: "Kill people, kill officials, rebel!"

All of a sudden they dispersed, some ran to their homes in the city to hide, some ran to the outside of the city to avoid trouble, and so on, and they suddenly started running around near Wangxi Gate.

The person who killed Sun Tuifu was none other than Zhao Lizi. He wiped the blood sprayed on his face by Sun Tui's house and shouted like an evil ghost: "Quickly follow me to seize this gate and welcome King Shun into the city!"

It turns out that after Laoshan Chief Zuo Lengchan decided on the method of "forging" official and public opinion, Zhang Shun, who was quite keen, suddenly thought: Since the people of Mengjin, Yanshi and Gong County can take the opportunity to enter the city, why can't the soldiers be allowed to enter the city? Pretend to be a commoner and seize the opportunity to seize the gate of Luoyang City?

In order to confuse Sun Tuiguan and others, Zhang Shun also specially ordered Zhao Lizi to go to Mengjin, Yanshi and Gong counties to recruit some strong men. The remaining one or two hundred people selected strong men from the army and made a batch of wrist-breaking knives overnight. Stash in calf pants for later use.

Sure enough, Sun Tuiguan only said that the people submitted the letter and continued to act in accordance with the original rules. Who would have thought that "these idiots" also understood the unspoken rules among officials, and actually used this to trick them into the city, and they were so bold as to seize Luoyang City.

The guards at Wangximen were also watching the play, but they never expected that things would suddenly take a turn for the worse, and the theatergoers would become people in the play.

Zhao Lizi and the two hundred warriors he led were all shirtless and holding wrist-breaking knives. He knew that he and others were inferior to the officers and soldiers in terms of weapons and defense. Only by relying on bloody courage to quickly seize the city gate could they have a chance of survival.

So, Zhao Lizi took the lead and led everyone to rush to the gate of Wangximen. Although these people are holding spears and wearing armor, they are actually just fake.

They call them gatekeepers at best, but in fact they are just equivalent to the "janitors" of later generations.

Who looks at the gate and wears armor? It looks bright on the outside, but it's actually made of cloth. They had never seen a bloody person, so how could they dare to deal with two hundred warriors who looked like wolves and tigers.

When Zhao Lizi rushed forward, he reached out and grabbed a spear, pulled one of the doors to him with force, and stabbed him to death. The rest of the disciples immediately dispersed, as if they were encountering an evil spirit. It was too late to escape, and they dared to resist.

Zhao Lizi quickly left thirty or forty people behind, picked up the weapons that Menzi had discarded on the ground, and led the remaining people to fight towards the city along the steps behind the city gate.

There are still twenty or thirty guards in the city, trembling and holding long spears to resist.

Zhao Lizi killed two people in a row and was already covered in blood. He shouted loudly: "King Shun has arrived with an army of 100,000, why don't you surrender quickly? If there is stubborn resistance, we will kill without mercy!"

After Zhao Lizi finished speaking, he felt a vibration in the city, like an earth dragon turning over. Then he heard the rumble of horse hooves coming from far and near.

The guards looked at each other and turned to look at each other. Just when I climbed up to look far into the distance, I saw three densely packed cavalry formations galloping from the northeast in the distance. Look at its flags, covering the sky and the sun, like a forest in full bloom. It roared like a mountain and a tsunami.

Many people trembled, abandoned their spears, knelt down and surrendered. Seven or eight people resisted stubbornly. After Zhao Lizi rushed forward and stabbed one to death, the others swarmed up and stabbed him to death on the spot.
