"What did you say? Say it again!" Wang Shuang couldn't believe his ears and asked with his eyes widened in fear.
Zhang Xiu said dejectedly: "Your Majesty has passed away!"
Without saying anything, Wang Shuang immediately walked to the side hall and saw Liu Bian lying in a pool of blood with a look of horror on his face, which showed how uncomfortable he was before his death and how much he didn't want to die.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Situ Wang Yun, Taiwei Yang Biao, and Taifu Ma Rixi heard that the assassin had entered the camp, and hurried over with their own swords. As soon as they entered the courtyard of the camp, they heard Zhang Xiu's words.
To them, those words were like a bolt from the blue.
The three people looked panicked and ran to the side hall in panic. After seeing Liu Bian's death and body, the three people immediately collapsed on the ground.
"Three adults..." Upon seeing this, Zhang Xiu hurriedly came over to comfort him.
"Damn Zhang Xiu! How did you protect His Majesty? You neglected your duty and committed a heinous crime. Someone, push Zhang Xiu out and behead him on the spot!" When Wang Yun saw that Liu Bian was dead, he was immediately stimulated and his face was filled with anger.
, having forgotten the environment he was in, said loudly.
However, although the words fell, no one moved, and Zhang Xiu's face showed even more contempt.
"What are you all doing standing there? Why don't you take action yet?" Wang Yun pointed at the soldiers and said.
"Master Wang, I think you have overlooked a very important issue, right? These people are not from your Situ Mansion, but my subordinates, the subordinates of King Qin. Do you think you can command them to move them?" Zhang
Xiu sneered and said slowly, "Also, you have ulterior motives and rebelled secretly. You want to use Yang Fengzhi's troops to deal with King Qin. Your wishful thinking is very good..."
"You...how did you know?" Wang Yun was extremely surprised and asked hurriedly.
Ma Rixi and Yang Biao were also very surprised as to why Zhang Xiu knew their secret.
Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself. His Majesty's death must have been caused by your colluding with foreign enemies and colluding with Yanhou Gaofei..."
"You're talking nonsense, you're slanderous, how could I do something detrimental to His Majesty?"
"In fact, you have already done it. His Majesty lying in a pool of blood is the best example! Come here, take down Wang Yun, push him out, and execute him on the spot!" Zhang Xiu's face suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly.
"promise!"
A group of soldiers immediately surrounded Wang Yun. Before Wang Yun could react, the soldiers took away Wang Yun's sword and pushed Wang Yun out without stopping, no matter how much Wang Yun shouted.
"ah……"
Then, Wang Yun's scream came from outside the camp, and a soldier came in with Wang Yun's head in his hand, dropped it on the ground, and said to Zhang Xiu: "General, Wang Yun has been executed on the spot."
"Zhang Xiu, you killed the princes and ministers indiscriminately, do you still have the law in your eyes?" Taifu Ma Rixi has a strong personality. He was unable to extricate himself from the grief due to Liu Bian's death. When Wang Yun's
After the head was thrown to the ground, he came to his senses, immediately stood up from the ground, pointed at Zhang Xiu's nose and reprimanded loudly.
"The King's Fa? Wherever there is King Qin, there is the King's Fa. Here, the King of Qin's is the King's Fa, and I am the King's Fa! Master Taifu, it seems that you and Taiwei Yang are also involved in the conspiracy, right?" Zhang Xiu said.
"So what? You treacherous ministers and traitors, you must have killed His Majesty, but you are inferring some assassin. I think it was the King of Qin who wanted to usurp the throne. You... you... I will kill you..."
As soon as Ma Rixi's voice fell, he picked up his sword from the ground. As soon as he stood up, he raised his sword and struck Zhang Xiu.
"presumptuous!"
Seeing this, Wang Shuang waved his sword, shouted loudly, raised the sword and dropped it. Ma Rixi's head detached from his body, flew directly into the air, and finally landed on the ground and rolled far away.
"boom!"
There was a muffled sound, and Ma Rixi's body, which was bleeding profusely, fell to the ground.
Yang Biao was right next to Ma Rixi, and his body was spattered with Ma Rixi's blood. His head, face, and body were all stained with blood. He came from a family of Gongqing, and he had never seen such a bloody scene before. Even if he had seen it, he would not have seen it.
Just watching from a distance, never having had such close contact before, I couldn't help but feel fear in my heart, and I collapsed on the ground and trembled all over.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiu knelt down and smiled at Yang Biao: "Don't be afraid, Taiwei. Wang Yun and Ma Rixi are both traitors who want to murder the King of Qin. Although Taiwei is also involved, he should be under the influence of
We will not harm Mr. Taiwei at will due to the instigation of the two of them. Besides, His Majesty passed away and Mr. Taiwei died. One of the three princes died, so he should act as Taichang to preside over it.
Ceremony. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, so I will first wrong the Taiwei to stay in the cell for a while, and hope that the Taiwei will write a letter to Yang Feng and summon him to Hulao Pass in advance.
He said that the assassins killed Wang Shuang and I last night, leaving Hulao Pass without a leader, and asked him to come to the pass to take charge of the overall situation. I wonder if Mr. Taiwei is willing to write?"
Yang Biao sat there, not answering, but his thoughts were flying. He was low-key and calm. Unlike Wang Yun and Ma Rixi, who was so impulsive, and having been in the officialdom for a long time, he naturally understood that he was in a state of affairs at this time.
In danger. When he saw that Liu Bian had died, Wang Yun and Ma Rixi were dead, and Zhang Xiu and Wang Shuang had grasped the matter of colluding with Yang Feng, he knew that the situation was over. After thinking for a long time, he nodded.
Agree to write a letter to Yang Feng.
After Zhang Xiu saw it, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty Taiwei is really a man who knows current affairs. In this case, please ask Mr. Taiwei to write a letter to Yang Feng. I will serve you with pen and ink."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone brought pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Yang Biao wrote quickly and eloquently. After writing a letter, Zhang Xiu took it away and sent someone to quickly leave Hulao Pass and deliver it to Yang Feng.
Afterwards, Zhang Xiu said: "Master Taiwei, you also participated in Wang Yun and Ma Rixi's plan. I just want to convict you and ask the King of Qin to punish you. I don't have the power. So now, I ask you to be aggrieved for a few days.
Been in a cell for a while."
Yang Biao had long expected this result, so he kept an expressionless face and said nothing.
"Come here, take Lord Taiwei into the cell and serve him well, without any slights." Zhang Xiu ordered.
After Yang Biao was taken away, Wang Shuang took the initiative to come up and asked: "Brother handles things smoothly and has the style of a general, which really makes me admire him. However, how should we explain to the king about the death of His Majesty?"
"Of course he told the truth. He said that Wang Yun and Ma Rixi colluded with Yan Hou Gao Fei and Yang Feng to plot to usurp the throne. Your Majesty has long wanted to kill His Majesty and make King Liang the emperor. However, he was afraid of causing dissatisfaction in the world, so he never took action.
.Since His Majesty has
If he dies, then the king will be relieved of some matters. He will directly push the matter to Gao Fei and let Gao Fei be blamed by thousands of people. Then the king will be able to attack Gao Fei and seize everything.
It’s the land of Hebei.” Zhang Xiu said.
"Yang Biao is also an accomplice. Why doesn't my brother kill Yang Biao?"
"Yang Biao is different from Wang Yun and Ma Rixi. Yang Biao's ancestors have been ministers for many generations. From his grandfather Yang Zhen down, his father Yang Ci, including him, were all three ministers. They had many disciples and former officials, and Yang
Biao'er
Yang Xiu was quite talented, and was a good friend of the military advisor Chen Qun. He was very close to the Chen family, so he could not be killed. As for Yang Biao's complicity, there was no need to report it. Yang Biao was detained for a few days as a punishment.
Can."
"Brother, I admire you so much. I admire you so much." Only then did Wang Shuang realize that there was a clear gap between him and Zhang Xiu, not only in martial arts, but also in mind. If Zhang Xiu hadn't been winking at him just now, he would have probably
He had already killed Yang Biao with one knife.
"Report——" A soldier quickly ran in and shouted loudly, "The assassin rushed out of the door. We can't stop him. He has already escaped."
Zhang Xiu and Wang Shuang looked at each other, frowned at the same time, and waved their hands, indicating that they should ignore it, because they both knew that the other party's strength was amazing, and even if they caught up, they would still suffer.
However, what worries Zhang Xiu the most is Zhao Yun, who wore a mask when fighting him. He can be sure that there are only three people in the world who can make hundreds of birds shoot at the Phoenix Spear. One is his master Tong Yuan.
One is his junior brother
Zhang Ren's master has already passed away. Zhang Ren is still in Shu. He can't help but let Zhao Yun become an unsolved mystery in his heart. He secretly thought: "Who is that person? Could it be that the master was still alive before his death?"
Have you ever accepted a closed disciple?"
After being puzzled, he stopped thinking about it. He firmly believed that he would encounter it again next time. He and Wang Shuang would work together to clean up the mess at Hulao Pass.
At noon, Yang Feng, who learned that the Hulao Pass was leaderless, left the army with dozens of followers and rushed to Hulao Pass without stopping. However, as soon as he entered Hulao Pass, he was immediately blocked. Zhang Xiu
Wang Shuang fought out of the city and killed Yang Feng and others indiscriminately.
After that, Zhang Xiu cut off Yang Feng's head and led a thousand cavalry to the front of the army brought by Yang Feng. He summoned the leaders of various ministries and showed them Yang Feng's head, and then used the spear king of the North to show them.
Prestige appeased the 70,000-strong army, which was mainly infantry, and led them to garrison at Hulao Pass, preparing to go to support Ma Chao in Guandu.
At the same time, Zhao Yun, Pang De, and Lu Heng, together with more than 110 people who had survived a night of fierce fighting at Hulao Pass, safely arrived at a small forest where they could hide and take a rest.
In the woods, Zhao Yun, Pang De, Lu Heng and others were all dejected. All of them had a kind of sadness. Guan Hai, Li Tie and more than 80 other brothers were killed in the battle. The most depressing one was Dian Wei.
He actually deceived everyone by pretending to be crazy, and in the end
They did a very critical thing at a critical moment. I am afraid that the crime of regicide will fall on them, and it will definitely bring a big disaster to the Yan country. No one knows what to do about all this.
How to face, face the lord who trusts them the most.
"Dian Wei... I, Zhao Zilong, swear that no matter where you are hiding in this life, I will find you and kill you with my own hands!" Zhao Yun, who was extremely depressed, could no longer bear it. He was unusually handsome and cool.
