Chapter 58 Poor Yuan Benchu, Falling Silently (II)
In the middle of the night, he suddenly woke up, his mind was dizzy, and he saw that someone had sent a decoction, and it was assigned by his own son, Yuan Shao didn't think much about it, he took it and prepared to drink it all, and the medicine bowl was sent to his lips, and Yuan Shao suddenly woke up...... That's not right!
Yuan Shao is full of etiquette, life is like an emperor, eating is called 'imperial meal', walking is called 'driving', and sleeping women are also called 'Linxing'...... In all aspects, extremely luxurious, it seems that it is not so high-profile, not enough to reflect the majesty!
It's the same for taking medicine when you're sick, after prescribing the medicine, select all kinds of medicinal materials, let the henchmen come to suffer, after the decoction is boiled, after several inspection procedures, let the two maids drink it, and confirm that it is foolproof, so please take it to the general, even drink the medicine several times a day, when to take the medicine, there are clear regulations, and you can't go wrong at all!
But now, in the middle of the night - it is not the time to take medicine, it is a celadon bowl that holds medicine, not a white jade bowl, and there is not a single maid around, because Yuan Shang delayed time, the original steaming decoction has also completely cooled down, how can the dignified General Yuan drink a bowl of cold medicine?
"Where are the guards and the maids...... You damn things, come in and serve the old man! ”
Suspicious, Yuan Shao refused to drink the medicine, but called out loudly, and there was no close attendant beside him, which made him feel a little weak!
"It's just a bowl of soup and medicine, why bother everyone, the subordinates are willing to serve, please take the medicine quickly!"
Seeing that things had changed, Zimu Gongzi stepped forward, snatched the medicine bowl with one hand, and pressed Yuan Shao's chest with the other, ready to forcibly pour it down!
"Someone! …… There are assassins! …… Smack! …… Zizi! ”
Yuan Shao woke up completely, while shouting for the guards to rescue, he resisted the medicine bowl with all his might, and between the two of them, the medicine spilled on the ground, and a burst of white smoke came out, and it was 'sizzling', which showed the poison!
"The general doesn't want to take the medicine, so please accept it, tonight is your limit!"
"Bold assassin, An dare to murder the old man, where is the Su Wei warrior...... What about the old man's sword? ”
…………………………
Seeing that the matter was revealed, Zimu Gongzi pulled out his dagger and pounced like a wolf, his eyes showing excitement, being able to kill a heroic man made him feel very accomplished!
Yuan Shao was born in the army, and he also has a martial arts, how can he sit still and wait to die, while dodging left and right, while touching his own sword, the result is back and forth, it turns out that after the defeat of the Cangting army, Yuan Shao's heart is too stressful, often touching in his sleep, the attendants are worried about hurting him, so they secretly take the treasure knife away!
"Brush! Brush! …… Help! Come and help! ”
With Yuan Shao's martial arts, even if he is bare-handed, he will not fall behind, but unfortunately, years of luxurious life have corroded his body, plus he is sick, he is weak, and his movements are extremely slow, and he has been hit with several daggers in a row, blood is splashed, and the bed is stained red......
Even so, with a strong desire to survive, Yuan Shao struggled to resist, he thought that the other party was an assassin, and sneaked into the dormitory, as long as he held on for a while, the guards would come to the rescue...... But when a pillar of incense has passed, why is there no one to be seen?
Zimu Gongzi looks like a little white face, but in fact, he is both civil and military, and after the family is ruined, he is practicing martial arts and plotting revenge.
The dagger pierced into the muscles, blood flowed out, and under the stimulation of severe pain, Yuan Shao's potential was also stimulated, and he resisted the dagger to the death, and continued to shout loudly, and the two sides fell into a stalemate......
"Father! -Father! …… Purple Wood stops...... Ay! ”
"The third prince is patient, it will pass soon, you plug your ears!"
………………
Outside the dormitory, hearing his father's screams, Yuan Shang's heart ached, he pulled out his sword several times, and wanted to rush in to rescue, but he was stopped by the dead soldiers.
In order to appease Yuan Shang, they snatched the sword, tore off two more pieces of clothes, blocked Yuan Shang's ears, and blocked the door of the bedroom with a human wall, while listening to the movement inside, "Our Uncle Zimu, you are a little nimble, it will be dawn soon!" ”
"Don't struggle, the general, the guards have already been resolved, no one will come to the rescue, and the subordinates are also acting on orders, you know this dagger, but the third prince gave it himself!"
"The son of disobedience, killing his father, the sky thunders, and the pig and dog are not as good as ...... O livestock! ”
Yuan Shao naturally knew his son's personal dagger, it was a birthday gift from himself, but it became a murder weapon for his own life, and then he thought of shouting for a long time, no one came to the rescue, Yuan Shao suddenly understood, all of a sudden all thoughts were lost, and his body had no strength......
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zimu Gongzi stabbed the dagger into the heart from under the third rib on the left side, blood gushed out like a spring, worried that the screams would attract the guards, Zimu dragged the silk quilt again, blocked Yuan Shao's mouth and nose, and let his body twist, his hands and feet twitched, and finally he was motionless!
General Yuan, who has been in the world for decades, has commanded the princes of the Eighteen Roads, dominated the four states of Hebei, and almost won the world, fell like this, and died silently and tragically...... Lamentable! Alas!
……………………………………………………………………
"Congratulations to the third son! --Take charge of Hebei and dominate the world! ”
"Congratulations to the third son! --Take charge of Hebei and dominate the world! ”
A moment later, the door of the dormitory opened, and Zimu, who was covered in blood, came out and knelt down on one knee to salute.
"Father! …… Father! …… Whining! ”
Looking at the kneeling crowd, Yuan Shang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly burst into tears, tearing his heart and lungs, and beating his chest...... mixed with a hint of joy, from today onwards, I will be a general!
Killed Yuan Shao, the matter is only half the success, if you want to succeed to the throne smoothly, you still need to make some deployments, next, Zimu Gongzi led a part of the people, stripped off Yuan Shao's clothes, blocked the wound with ashes, cleaned up the bloodstains, took advantage of the warmth of the body, and then put on a natural posture, as if he died in a deep sleep!
Yuan Shang led the others, turned out the talismans, arrows, and the general's golden seal in the bedroom, and then in the name of his father, rearranged the guards in the mansion, and all the original people and horses were transferred, and three thousand private troops were transferred to take over the defense of the general's mansion......
After dawn, Yuan Shang controlled the situation, and then summoned Hebei Wenwu and officially announced the news: 'The general overworked, so that the old disease recurred, last night at the fifth watch, suddenly vomited blood three liters, died violently, and left a will: the third son Yuan Shang succeeded as the general, and led the Jizhou pastor! ’
"General! -The soul is back and enjoy the soup!
"General! - How are we going to live when you are gone...... Whining! ”
………………
The next morning, in the general's mansion - a high spiritual shed, solemn, white sails, white flags, white silk ...... The trees, furniture, and wells in the house were also covered with white cloths, and everyone wore linen and filial piety, crying and shouting!
Yuan Shao's body was packed up, and a golden silk nan wooden coffin was put into the burial, and it was parked above the lobby, the coffin lid was tightly closed, and the eight warriors around him, wearing iron armor and holding sharp blades, strictly forbade anyone to get close, let alone look at the remains!
Yuan Shao's hundreds of wives and concubines knelt on the east side of the hall, crying to death or alive, especially some concubines, there was no shortage of crying and fainting, not because the husband and wife had deep feelings, but as soon as the general died, they were going to be buried collectively!
The civil and military officials in Hebei, kneeling on the west side of the hall, were also crying loudly, and they were crying and soaking their clothes, even more sad than the concubines, that is, their own father died, and it is estimated that this is it!
The officials were crying, secretly gesturing, handing glances, and talking fiercely, but they were full of doubts about Yuan Shao's sudden death?
The general is physically strong, although he is a little older, but his majesty is undiminished, he can eat several bowls of rice at a time, and sleep three or four women a night, according to this situation, it will not be a problem to live for another twenty or thirty years!
Although after the defeat, the army was in a hurry, and there were some diseases in the body, but Lang Zhong said clearly, as long as he was careful to recuperate, he would recover in ten days and a half months, and he would not worry about his life, so why did he suddenly die violently?
Besides, after the death of a high-ranking nobleman, he must be buried in a costume, and his own surname and subordinate officials ...... Take turns to look forward to look at the remains, this is in line with the rules, the current situation is that the coffin is closed, the samurai guard, to say that there is no cat here, it is really a ghost and do not believe it!
Thinking of yesterday, Yuan Shao was furious and ordered the recall of his eldest son Yuan Tan to prepare to replace the heir, but he died violently in the middle of the night...... Under the connection of various clues, I am afraid that it will be another disaster of Xiao Wall!
"The general died suddenly, we are all burned, I can't replace him with my body, and go to Jiuquan together, but the enemy soldiers are coming to the city, Hebei can't be left without an owner for a day, please follow the last order, and set up the third prince as the general!"
After crying for a while, a plain woman stood up, about forty years old, quite plump, can be described as a, the charm still exists, it is the general's wife - Liu, and Yuan Shang's biological mother!
For the death of her husband, Liu also knows a little bit about it, although there is some heartache, but she doesn't care too much, her current mind is to assist her son to ascend the throne, keep the glory and wealth, and then drive all the 'fox spirits' in the back house into the underground for burial, she has been jealous for a long time!
"Brush! …… Brush! ”
After listening to Mrs. Liu's words, the officials all stopped crying, and their movements were quite neat, just like they had been trained, they all stared at the two of them, whether they supported Yuan Shang to ascend to the throne, or thoroughly investigated Yuan Shao's death, it depends on the attitude of the two strategists!
For a while, the lobby was silent, people stopped crying, waiting for the development of things, and Guo Tu's face was pale, staring at Yuan Shao's coffin for a while, and Yuan Shang who was burning paper, his eyes wandering......
On the one hand, Yuan Shao is as kind to them as a mountain and gives them a heavy responsibility, and now that the cause of the lord's death is unknown, as subordinates, they should be investigated to the end and take revenge!
On the other hand, the strong enemy is pressing, the wind and rain are shaking, and the truth is really exposed, and it is inevitable that there will be an internal firefight, and the big ship of Hebei Group is really going to sink!
"Brush! …… Brush! Brush! ”
At the same time, Zimu led a group of pro-soldiers to rush in, everyone holding sharp blades, showing a murderous aura, staring at a group of civil and military officials, whoever dares to oppose today will be a ghost under the knife!
"Hey! -The subordinates respectfully invite the third prince to inherit the position of the general and take charge of the four states of Hebei! ”
"The subordinates respectfully invite the third prince to inherit the position of the general and take charge of the four states of Hebei!"
……………………
After glancing at each other, the judge and Guo Tu still gave in, and now they will reveal the truth, it is not beneficial for public or private, they took the lead and bowed, and the rest of the officials also followed suit and declared their allegiance to the new general!
In this way, in the midst of a cry, under the coercion of force, Yuan Shang took over as the general, and concurrently led the Jizhou pastor, and became the lord of Hebei, to be precise, only half of Hebei, and the other half of the city was already surnamed Cao!
Please support the genuine version, the baron also has to support his family...... Kneel and thank!
