The adults from all the ministries were whispering and nodding in agreement. Some people looked at Tuoba Shao and already had doubts. Tuoba Shao was anxious and said loudly: "Tuoba Si, everyone knows that you deserted your father and defected, and this
Yu Lixi, the one you sent back to assassinate my father, Tuoba Si, I don’t know what method you used to bribe tens of thousands of people to give you false testimony, but I tell you, it can’t be true.”
"If this Yu Lixi is really a loyal minister, then why didn't he show up during the duel? If he didn't know in advance that His Majesty was assassinated, how could he not come? Don't tell me that you are afraid of His Majesty or that you can't bear to hurt him.
You know, when the adults from various ministries came to the palace the next day, none of them knew that His Majesty had been assassinated, but you, who was scheduled to have a duel with His Majesty, knew that except that the assassin was you, is there any other explanation?"
Yu Lixi said in a deep voice: "I didn't come because your majesty sent me a secret decree, saying that Mrs. Helan and her son had betrayed him and were plotting to cause chaos in the Wei Dynasty. He asked Mr. An Tong and I to unite with the ministers to welcome the prince Tuoba.
He came back to kill the traitors, and the news came from Lord Cui Hong who personally found me that night and asked me to do it! And His Majesty’s secret decree is here!"
As he spoke, he struggled with his hands, and the chains in his hands suddenly fell from his hands, as did the shackles, and the instruments of torture on Tuoba Si and An Tong also fell off.
Laifu's expression changed and he was about to step forward with a swing of his sword. Yu Lixi said sternly: "Don't move. Don't worry, I won't kill anyone until the truth is revealed. As for the real murderer, there is such a person today."
As long as Wei has loyal ministers and good generals, we will never be able to escape in the end!"
Baba Song stared at Laifu motionless: "Come, father-in-law, if you dare to act rashly, I can guarantee that no one here will spare you, and your king will regard you as the real murderer and silence him!"
Laifu's forehead began to sweat, and the sword stopped in the air, but he didn't know whether to advance or retreat. Tuoba Shao gritted his teeth and looked at Yu Lixi: "Where is the secret order?!"
Yu Lixi took out a roll of parchment from his arms and handed it to Ba Ba Song. After Ba Ba Song looked at it, his face changed slightly and he passed the parchment to Da Xijin on the side and said: "It is indeed your Majesty's."
The handwriting and seal are also authentic. He said he was in danger and deliberately repelled the general, asking him to come back with the prince early. If anything happened to him, he would immediately use this edict to enthrone the prince Tuoba Si. The time of his assassination was
The day before, absolutely true!”
Tuoba Shao looked at Cui Hong and said sternly: "How could my father bypass so many important Xianbei ministers and let you, a Han official, deliver such an important secret order?!"
Cui Hong said calmly: "Because this jade seal is kept by the minister, Your Majesty has been convening the various ministers of Xianbei for many years to discuss military affairs. In the end, we Han civil servants will implement it, and the seal is also kept and drafted by me, the minister.
When General Yu left the tribe that year, he was ordered by His Majesty to secretly protect Wan Wan's family and never reveal the whereabouts of her family. This is because those who intend to harm Your Majesty will definitely look for breakthroughs in Wan Wan's family.
In order to control her family, His Majesty deliberately let thousands of people learn barbarian songs and dances, concealing her identity as the daughter of the Han Lu family, and therefore pardoned her brothers and family, and specifically wanted General Yu to protect her secretly. This time
During the trip to Qinghe, His Majesty realized that a huge conspiracy group had infiltrated around him, and even his life was in danger, so he urgently asked General Yu to come back, but he did not expect..."
Tuoba Shao could no longer control himself and shouted: "You are all talking about it! Cui Hong, your son Cui Hao also testified at the time, saying that he saw Yu Lixi commit the murder with his own eyes, and also said that he
Out of desperation, he called for guards and scared Yu Lixi away. Could it be that your son was lying?"
Cui Hao sneered: "At that time, like ten thousand people, I was controlled by your mother. My life was in your hands. You even threatened the lives of my whole family. Before I had the ability to fight back, of course I could only ignore my conscience and act according to my wishes.
As He Lanmin taught me, hum, I bear the humiliation just for this moment!"
Laifu said sternly: "That's nonsense. If you were really forced, why would Madam give you the command of the palace guards? You have soldiers in your hands and you would have attacked the king long ago. Why did you wait until now?"
!”
Cui Hao laughed: "You are right, father-in-law, He Lanmin has never really trusted our Cui family and his son. I, a small bodyguard, cannot convince the public at all, nor can I command thousands of imperial guards. In the middle
There are a lot of her henchmen among them. I really want to mobilize troops to attack the thieves, but I'm afraid I will die first. This is also a way for you to test me. Besides, you Helan Ministry secretly disguised as palace maids and chamberlains.
Guard, this is her hidden power, right? There are hundreds of secret guards in the hall. Even if I attack with my troops, I'm afraid I won't be able to get in. However, Tuoba Shao, even if you have exhausted all your mechanisms, you still fall because of greed.
After somersaulting, leaving the Liangyi Palace with its many traps and secret escape routes, and now coming to the square where loyal ministers gathered, do you think you can still escape? Do you think that people like Lai Gonggong can save you?
?I’m telling you, daydreaming!”
Tuoba Shao suddenly shouted loudly: "All troops, obey the order, Sikes!"
All the palace guards behind them raised their swords, guns, swords and halberds. Laifu swung his sword and said sternly: "The secret guards of the Helan tribe, the imperial guards of the palace, the Cui family and his son colluded with the rebels to confuse right and wrong here.
, kill for me, behead the leader of the thieves, reward..."
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, he heard a "pop" sound, and another sound, and two knives stabbed into his back. Laifu's face was full of disbelief, he turned his head and looked at the man standing behind him.
Two secret guards who looked like palace maids: "Narcissus, Peach Blossom, you, you..."
A woman in her thirties with pigtails, her eyes full of tears, gritted her teeth and said: "Uncle Lai, I'm sorry, we are the secret guards of the Helan tribe, and more importantly, the people of the Wei Dynasty, we can no longer follow
That woman makes mistakes again and again!"
An Tong's voice sounded slowly: "It's good that you found your way back. It's not in vain for His Majesty's kindness to you during his lifetime."
Laifu's eyes were wide open, he fell to the ground and vomited blood and died. All the secret guards threw away their weapons, knelt down, and said in unison: "We are loyal to the prince and Wei, and I beg the prince to forgive me!"
An Tong's voice echoed coldly in the ears of Tuoba Shao, who was already slumped on the ground: "Tuoba Shao, do you now know where the elite soldiers His Majesty has arranged for me to protect the prince are? They are your Helan tribe.
The secret guard, you didn’t expect it!”
