Chapter 23: The Assassins
Lu Yao didn't know that these living treasures under his subordinates went to the red-sleeved trick to act recklessly, so he just sat in the wing room of the Minghe Hall and waited quietly. During this period, the servants once served a simple lunch, but when Lu Yao asked about the whereabouts of King Xincai, they all promised not to say anything. A few hours have passed, and seeing that the sun has set in the west, the objects placed in the Minghe Hall have dragged out a long shadow, but I still don't know when I will see King Xincai.
Rao is Lu Yao was calm, and he couldn't help but complain slightly. As the representative of Liu Kun, the assassin of Bingzhou, he should not be treated so slowly no matter what.
The situation that will occur after coming to Yecheng, Lu Yao has not thought about it. He was born in the Bingzhou Army and was the military master under the command of Dongying Gong back then, which obviously caused the displeasure of the current cavalry general Xin Caiwang, but when Zhou Liang turned Lu Yao away for two consecutive days, Lu Yao was also very cooperative, and respectfully basked in the poisonous sun for two days......
Since he has suffered like this, it has given King Xin Cai enough face. If King Xin Cai wants to be humiliated additionally, it will be too much to ignore General Pingbei and the history of the state assassination.
Left and right are idle and bored, Lu Yao is cranky and thinking about passing the time. For some reason, his thoughts turned to what Xue Tong said to himself on the night he camped in the mountains after leaving Jinyang.
According to the news revealed by Xue Tong's clan brother and Dianjun Shuzuo Liufeng: After the envoy of the East China Sea King came to visit a few days ago, although Yue Shigong was not unusual in person, he was furious, and even Lu Yao was included in the object of anger. Lu Yao asked himself to be sincere and loyal in things, and since he was put into the command of Yue Shigong in the Changping Pavilion on the bank of Danshui, he has done his best in everything. In the Battle of Jinyang, he took on the responsibility of all aspects, defeated an army several times his own, and made great contributions. No matter what he thought, he couldn't understand what Liu Kun could be dissatisfied with.
Perhaps, the problem lies with the envoy of the King of the East Sea? The king of the East China Sea was the ruling dynasty of the dynasty, and the official worshiped the Taifu Lu Shangshu, and his henchmen were all over the government and the opposition, and his power was monstrous. How could such a big man have anything to do with his little military attachΓ©. If I had to say what the connection was...... He once had a relationship with the beloved concubine of the King of the East China Sea in the Taihang Mountains, but at that time, the state was in turmoil, and the group fled in embarrassment.
So what's the problem?
Lu Yao was not worried about losing the trust of Yue Shigong, or losing his lordship because of it. Since he has come to this era inexplicably, it is that the heavens will descend on the Si people. Lu Yao has never pinned his future on anyone; He was convinced that he was capable enough to forge a path to turn things around.
What made him nervous was that in the history he knew, the turning point of the Jinyang regime from prosperity to decline seemed to have appeared at this moment.
Lu Yao knows very well that although Liu Kun and Liu Yueshi are famous heroes in the history of the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty, they are also a person with distinct character flaws. According to historical records, Liu Kun is "luxurious, lustful, although he is temporarily self-motivated, but he is indulgent", which Lu Yao has seen with his own eyes. Although the state's wealth has dried up, he still used thousands of people to rebuild the grand and gorgeous General's Mansion in Jinyang City, which is proof of this.
And the history books also record that Liu Kun is "good at caressing, but short of control", and even criticized Liu Kun through the mouth of others for "not being able to carry forward the scriptures, driving heroes, and focusing on self-defeat". In history, Liu Kun trusted the traitor Xu Run, and even listened to slander and killed the heavy general Ling Husheng. Linghu Sheng's son Ling Huni angrily defected to the Huns, and told Jinyang to be false. It directly led to the unprecedented rout of the Jinyang regime, and even Liu Kun's parents were killed in the war.
Based on Lu Yao's experience, Liu Kun's character is heroic and heroic, but he really seems too conceited and rigid, and his closeness and trust to Xu Run are even more extraordinary. From a certain point of view, Shi Xu Run, who is also the right chief of the Jinyang Order, has even surpassed the Shangdang Taishou Wen Qiao and climbed to the chief of the civil officials in Bingzhou.
From Long Jimeng's mouth, Lu Yao learned that Xu Run had weakened the strength of the remnants of the Bingzhou army by despicable means, but he had lost Gao Xiang's life. Since then, the relationship between him and Xu Run has been hostile, but due to the imperial court system, it has not been put on the surface.
Liu Kun's personality is the same as Shi Zai, and his closeness to Xu Run is also the same as Shi Zai, and considering that the East China Sea King doesn't know what news has caused Liu Kun's anger...... Is he going to replace Ling Husheng and become the beginning of the Jinyang regime's self-destruction of the Great Wall?
Lu Yao couldn't help but smile bitterly.
In the past few months, I have only struggled to find a chance to survive in the troubled times. But for now, it seems that more should be seriously considered, perhaps......
Lu Yao was about to think carefully, when he suddenly heard the sound of heavy footsteps in the distance, accompanied by the sonorous sound of armor colliding, which was undoubtedly the direction in which the armor of the brigade was running in the palace city...... It is here that I am in the Crane Hall! Lu Yao's expression froze, and he stood up.
In the blink of an eye, the footsteps became louder and louder. Some people shouted: "Quick! Fast! "Tightly surrounded, Hugh is going to go thief!"
In the next moment, the door of the wing room was violently kicked open, and with a loud bang, dozens of samurai with armor and armor rushed in. The sword light in his palm was like snow, forcing Lu Yao in the center.
A tall and thin officer with a grim face stepped inside and looked at Lu Yao with a frown. The beautiful boy who introduced Lu Yao to Minghe Hall stood beside him, bowed down and said, "General, this is the person!" β
The officer nodded and shouted, "Take it!" β
The armor soldiers approached in response.
"Wait!" Lu Yao raised his foot and hooked up the case in front of him, shook it around, and forced everyone away: "I am the envoy of Liu Thorn History of Bingzhou, Sima of Pingbei of Bingzhou, and Lu Yao, the general of Yamen, not a villain." Could it be that you are mistaken? Quickly step down, Hugh is a mistake! β
The officer sneered again and again: "How could it be mistaken! The one who caught it was Liu Kun's envoy from Bingzhou! Left and right, take it with me! Dare to resist, don't kill! β
The armorers shouted in unison, pointing their swords forward. The wing room was originally not very large, only two zhang in length and width, and it was even more impassable after stuffing dozens of armor soldiers. Dozens of long knives lined up in a big circle and approached inward, and Lu Yao dared to move slightly, and immediately the end of the chaotic blade was dissected. Don't say it's Lu Yao, even if the overlord is resurrected and the gods come to the world, they are not opponents.
Lu Yao sighed, let go and threw the case down. Hearing the sound of "Qiang Qiang", six or seven long knives immediately put around his neck, Lu Yao felt that the oily skin near the main artery had been cut, and the cold air on the blade made the skin on his neck instantly have goosebumps.
"Come slowly, come slowly, this general ......" Lu Yao smiled reluctantly: "Lu really doesn't know what big crime he has committed, and he actually works as if he is facing a great enemy?" I am a subordinate official of the state, and even if there is any misunderstanding, His Royal Highness King Xin Cai always has to give me a chance to defend myself. β
The military attache looked at Lu Yao: "Do you have a subordinate named Ding Miao?" β
"That's right."
The military attache took the book from the hand of a subordinate behind him and looked at it, and continued to ask: "How many others, are Shen Jin, Ding Yu, Ding Jin, He Yun, and Chu Kun?" β
"That's right. But these are merge state officers, aren't they ......?"
"These are the people who committed the crime!" The military attache shouted: "That Ding Miao dared to assassinate His Royal Highness King Xincai, the crime is extremely heinous!" Everyone below Shen Jin is complicit! Now the thieves have been captured and caught. You're their boss...... Hehe, it's indispensable to sit together! β
Ding Miao? Assassinate the new King Cai?
Lu Yao seemed to have been hit by lightning on the ground, and he was speechless for a while.
And the surrounding armor soldiers took the opportunity to rush up, some pressed their heads and some strangled, and immediately flipped Lu Yao to the ground.
