Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 315 Going to Sacrifice to the Assassin King

Xun Yu returned to the mansion with a sad face.When he followed Cao Cao, he believed that Cao Cao could revive the Han Dynasty.Cao Cao achieved half of it, but he became greedy for power, like Dong Zhuo, even more greedy for power than Dong Zhuo, and he was not satisfied after being a prime minister, so he wanted Jiuxi.

Does Cao Cao simply want Jiuxi?Of course not!He wants to be a duke, or even a king.Xun Yu knew what duke and king he would make.Cao Cao has been in Yecheng for so long, and Yecheng is the land of the ancient Wei State, so he naturally wants to be the Duke and King of Wei.

Xun Yu guessed what Cao Cao was thinking, but he couldn't say it now, because Cao Cao didn't express his request, so he couldn't even refuse it.Xun Yu had already decided that after the sacrifice to heaven, he would go to Nanyang and talk to Cao Cao.

There are still a few days before the fifteenth day, and Xun Yu will be very busy these days, busy preparing for the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven.

Xi Xi is also busy, busy gathering the rogues, busy inspiring the army, if they find these rogues, let them kill them directly, and they cannot be confessed.

Soon, the [-]th day would arrive. In the morning at chen shi, Xun Yu entered the palace with his guards, asked the emperor to get on the imperial chariot, and walked out of the palace.

Outside the palace, the civilians had been waiting near the imperial road early on.They really want to see the emperor, some are curious, some admire, and some have ulterior motives.

It is not often that the emperor can see it. Rare things are more expensive, and seeing the rare ones can attract many people.

On both sides of the royal road, there are soldiers blocking the crowd to prevent anyone from colliding with the royal driver.Although the majesty of the Han Dynasty is no longer there, the emperor is Cao Cao's biggest political reliance, so they can't help being indifferent.

The imperial chariot was very large and was a gift from Cao Cao to the emperor. The emperor rode it to Xuchang.It was also that year that people from Xuchang met the emperor once, more than ten years ago.

When the old people saw the emperor's chariot, they were so excited that they shed tears. They all lived from before the turmoil in the Han Dynasty to the present, and they were very much looking forward to the emperor's return of the Han Dynasty to its former glory.

But the young people are different. The Xuchang area has often encountered wars since the Yellow Turban Rebellion.The remnants of the Yellow Turban and Dong Zhuo's rebellion, until Cao Cao settled down here, it was turbulent.

People who grew up in the turbulent era don't have much respect for the Han Dynasty.

The Emperor Yujia went out of the city, many people raised their hands and cheered after seeing the Emperor Yujia.After the emperor saw it, he was very happy, because so many people had the Han Dynasty in their hearts, which gave him the idea that the Han Dynasty could be prosperous.

But before walking very far, I saw a group of people pointing and playing around at the house.The emperor's face turned cold at that moment, he clenched his fists tightly, and his heart twitched violently.

He knew that the dignity of the Han Dynasty was no longer what it used to be, but he really didn't expect that someone would offend him so much.

When Xun Yu, who was driving in front of the car, saw the group of people, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he quickly figured out who these people were instructed by.He immediately beckoned to the generals of the imperial guards and asked him to arrest these people.

The general immediately ordered the soldiers to act, and those rogues ran away quickly.The scene suddenly became chaotic, and the emperor's chariot had to stop.

At this moment, an arrow "swished" and shot directly into the emperor's shoulder.

"There are assassins!" The guards around the emperor immediately warned, some protected the emperor, while others ran towards the direction of the arrow.

"Whoosh!"

Another arrow came, and it was shot very cunningly between the two soldiers, and hit the emperor's right chest.

"Protect Your Majesty!" Xun Yu yelled loudly, "Return to the palace! Return to the palace!"

The emperor's chariot immediately turned around, and before it turned completely, it was shot with two more arrows, but fortunately they missed the emperor. One arrow hit the pillar of the chariot, and the other shot a soldier to death.

Xun Yu protected the emperor to evacuate, and Shi Huan, who was in charge of the formation, personally led people to arrest the assassins.

Xi Xi and the others also panicked at this time, they just wanted to lose the emperor's prestige, but they never expected to be assassinated.

You must know that this time is not the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when dead men were rampant and assassins were against the sky.An assassin can decide the fate of a country. Cao Mo robbed Qi Huan, Zhuan Zhu assassinated Wang Liao, Yu Rang assassinated Zhao Xiang, Nie Zheng assassinated Han Xiang, Jing Ke assassinated King Qin, all assassins of dead men.

At that time, assassinations could be said to be very common. Even Lin Xiangru, a high-ranking scholar-bureaucrat in Zhao State, once robbed King Qin, which shows the atmosphere at that time.

However, there were not many such incidents in the Han Dynasty. The only time was that the very famous Sun Ce was assassinated. After that, there were two in the Three Kingdoms period. One was Zhang Fei and the other was Fei Yi. Both of these celebrities were assassinated. It is the Kingdom of Shu.

There is another assassination that is not well-known but has a profound impact, and that is Han Long's assassination of Xianbei Shanyu Ke Bineng.Since then, Xianbei has stabilized a lot, and its influence has been greater than the previous three.

But the assassination of the emperor has never been successful.

Shi Huan led people to find the house where the assassin was, and immediately sent troops to surround it.Then someone attacked, only to find that the assassin had committed suicide.

The assassin is a person, but he uses a strong crossbow, much like the standard crossbow in Zhang Yi's army.But the soldiers also found a token on the assassin's body. After seeing it, Shi Huan immediately hid it and strictly prohibited it from being shared.

Shi Huan immediately rushed to the palace with the assassin's body.

Xun Yu protected the emperor and returned to the palace, and the imperial doctor came up early to watch.But after busying himself for a long time, he reported to Xun Yu: "Mr. Xun Ling, the arrow on your Majesty's shoulder can be removed, but the arrow on the right chest has pierced the heart and lungs, and it is powerless to recover."

When Xun Yu heard the bad news, he almost collapsed as if he had been hit hard.He has been thinking about restoring the Han Dynasty all these years, but he did not expect such a result.

"It's all Yu's fault!" Xun Yu mourned in his heart, if he didn't want to take this opportunity to increase the prestige of the emperor, there would be no sacrifice to heaven, and the emperor would not have any problems.

When Xun Yu was sad, Shi Huan walked in and said to Xun Yu, "Mr. Xun Ling, the assassin committed suicide. I found some things, but I can't determine the identity of the assassin. Please ask Mr. Xun to find out."

Xun Yu raised his head sharply, looking at Shi Huan like a madman, "What is it?"

General Shi Huan took out the crossbow and the token and handed them to Xun Yu.The crossbow is Zhang Yi's military crossbow, and the token is Cao Cao's special unit, touching Captain Jin's waist badge.

Seeing these two things, Xun Yu immediately made a judgment: "Zhang Yi, you and I cannot live together!"
