Chapter 1361: Han Banner World (51) Qing Jun Side
In the conference hall, Lu Chao was on top of it, he didn't even put on the general's full costume, just dressed in civilian clothes, with long hair and a shawl, sitting there idlely, looking at his opponent with a mocking smile on his face, Su Qin, the royal envoy from Xianyang, and Ying Hua, the deputy commander of the Black Ice Stage.
"General Lu, you received the great favor of the previous king, and now the king also respects you and trusts you very much, is this how you treat the king's envoy?" Su Qin raised his head, glared at his opponent angrily, and raised the scepter in his hand high, "When you see the scepter, it will be like the king coming in person, Lu Chao, don't you come down to pay a big salute?" ”
Lu Chao stood up lazily, and in front of everyone's eyes, he actually stretched a big lazy waist, "Su Envoy, this is Hanguguan, I am a general, and I am armoured, so naturally I can't pay full salutes, what royal order did the king let you bring, you just read it?" Today, the generals and above of Hangu Pass are all here, so let's not waste time on such a small etiquette that has nothing to do with the big festival, don't you say? ”
Su Qin's eyes were full of fire, is this a small etiquette that has nothing to do with the big festival, this is the minimum respect that a courtier has for the king, he took a deep breath, it seems that the royal order in his hand will not play a role, and he can only count on the second secret order in Yinghua's arms. His eyes slowly swept over the dozens of generals gathered in the hall, they were all generals of the Qin State, even if Lu Chao bought a few people, how could he buy them all, as long as there were a few generals who were loyal to the king, they could cause riots after the secret edict was announced, and Yinghua brought all the good hands, Lu Chao was just a scholar, he himself had no power to restrain the chicken, he could take his life with a knife, kill him, and the rest of the crowd was leaderless. Naturally, it's easy to deal with.
Su Qin walked steadily towards the high Lu Chao, holding the scepter in one hand and the king's order in the other, with an awe-inspiring look on his face, looking at Su Qin who came solemnly, Lu Chao's heart also moved slightly. Such a person, I didn't know that coming to Hangu Pass was a head-killing business, but he still came, and his character was indeed worthy of respect, but it was a pity that the more loyal he was to Yingying, the more he was his worst enemy, Lu Chao sighed slightly in his heart, in the Great Qin Dynasty. After all, there are still many loyal people, which is why I have to prepare that child in advance.
A descendant of the Ying clan sits on the throne, even if it is a puppet, it will give many people an excuse to surrender at their feet, but if they appear in a grand manner, the wave of opposition will definitely be much greater, and one is not good. The flames of anger will consume themselves.
After all, this is a dynasty that has ruled for hundreds of years. Their supremacy, even in the hearts of the most ordinary people, has been deeply imprinted.
The two pro-soldiers, one on the left and one on the right, stood firmly in front of Lu Chao, so that Su Qin couldn't see Lu Chao's people at all, and the figures of these two pro-soldiers were relative to him. It's just too big.
One of the guards unceremoniously stretched out his hand, snatched the edict that Su Qin had held high, turned around and walked towards Lu Chao, while the other glared at Su Qin and roared viciously, "Go back." ”
Su Qin was furious. He is also a dignified doctor, he was actually scolded by a small soldier, and was about to have a seizure, but the hand of the pro-soldier opposite pressed the handle of the knife, and the eyes of the two looked at each other for a moment, Su Qin sighed, stepped back, and competed with this little soldier who didn't know anything, isn't this demeaning his identity?
Lu Chao opened the edict casually, looked at the content on it, but the expression on his face became more and more happy: "The king ordered me to go back to Xianyang?" ”
He snapped the edict on the table. "Does the king know that now that the Han army is pressing the border, we have lost the Lu soldiers, and Hangu Pass will face the attack of the Han army at any time, at this time, the king actually wants to summon me back?"
"General, I didn't see the Han army, on the contrary, the information that Xianyang got was that the Han army was transferring troops to Daijun on a large scale, and they were in trouble in the desert, so the king wanted to summon the general back to Xianyang to discuss the plan."
"Call me back? But the power of the army is temporarily handed over to you? Lu Chao looked at Su Qin sarcastically.
"I'm just taking care of the general for the time being, and when the general returns to Hangu Pass, this military power will naturally still belong to the general." Su Qin said loudly.
Lu Chao laughed loudly, "Su Qin, am I a three-year-old child?" This time I went to Xianyang, what was waiting for me was not the king to discuss with me, but the knife and axeman. ”
Su Qin's face turned pale, "How can there be such a thing?" The general doesn't do bad things, how can he be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, such nonsense, doesn't it make people laugh off their big teeth? ”
"It does make people laugh out of their big teeth!" Lu Chao coldly picked up the royal order, and slowly tore it into pieces one by one in front of Su Qin, and threw it casually, and bursts of paper flowers rose all over the hall.
"Lu Chao, you are bold, you dare to tear up the king's order, do you want to rebel?"
"Rebellion? Naturally I don't dare, I Lu Chao is the general of Daqin, ordered to garrison Hangu Pass, these years, so that the Han army can not advance an inch, and can never cross the Hangu Pass one step, but the court is unreasonably suspicious of me, since last year, the court has not allocated a penny of silver to me, did not transfer a cart of military rations to come, no knife and arrow to the front line, the soldiers are bleeding, but you are thinking about how to calculate us all day long above the court? Su Qin, are you ashamed? ”
"You talk nonsense! Lu Chao, you sent troops privately, drove out the county guards of the three counties around Hangu Pass, and appointed your cronies to take control, can't the income of these counties satisfy you? In the past dynasties of the Great Qin Dynasty, how could there have been such domineering courtiers, do you have a trace of the way of being a minister? Su Qin's face flushed and retorted loudly.
Lu Chao smiled casually: "Doctor Su, what is Daqin like now, you don't need me to say that you know, right?" If I don't control these counties, will there still be military salaries, food and grass? They will be the same as the rest of Daqin, riots are continuous, and the smoke is everywhere, not to mention food, I am afraid that I will have to go to the army to suppress it. Do you think I'm right? You count with me, now within Daqin, how many counties are too peaceful? ”
Su Qin's mouth opened, but he was speechless. Although he knew that Lu Chao was quibbling, and the rebellion of those county rulers was absolutely inseparable from the person in front of him who seemed to be gentle and elegant, but there was no trace of testimony to prove that he did it.
"You...... You ......"
"Nothing to say?" Lu Chao sneered: "So Doctor Su, I think it's better to talk less nonsense, doesn't Yinghua still have another secret order on his body, just take it out together and let me pay a visit!" ”
Su Qin's face turned from red to white in an instant, why did Lu Chao know that Yinghua still had another secret order on his body? There was a big traitor in the court, and the sharp-minded Su Qin immediately grasped the key to the matter.
Yinghua, who was standing behind Su Qin, also had no blood on his face.
Under the pressure of everyone in the hall, Yinghua stepped forward, stretched out his hand into his arms, and sneered: "Since the general knows that there is another secret order in my arms, and he wants to know what the content of this secret order is, it seems that I don't need to read it!" ”
Lu Chao looked at him coldly, but didn't say a word.
The hand was taken out of his arms, it was not a secret letter, it was actually a crossbow, and his body kicked up from the ground, Yinghua rushed to Lu Chao: "Traitor, take your life." ”
The range of the crossbow was too short, and Yinghua had to run several steps forward before she could be sure of killing her opponent in one fell swoop. Many of the generals in the hall were empty-handed and did not carry weapons, and the only ones who could stop him were the two personal soldiers, but the two small soldiers, Yinghua felt that they were not his opponents at all.
Looking at Yinghua's movements, Lu Chao raised his head and laughed, and the two pro-soldiers quickly approached one on the left and one on the right, blocking Lu Chao tightly, but on the top of Yinghua's head, there was a whooshing roar.
Yinghua fell to the ground, and above his head, only the tail of a crossbow arrow remained, still trembling slightly. Just now Yinghua violently stabbed, the generals in the hall were in an uproar, everyone did not expect that the dignified royal envoy would actually use such a means, but before they could fully react, Yinghua had already fallen to the ground and died, everyone's heads were raised, and they saw that on the high roof beam, a black figure flashed slightly, and then disappeared without a trace.
"The king of a country actually killed the minister, Doctor Su, there is a villain around the king!" Lu Chao stretched out his hand and pulled away the two guards, walked down, and stared at Su Qin, "It seems that I really want to go to Xianyang for a while, and if I don't get rid of all the villains around the king, how can we Daqin regain our strength and strengthen the mountains and rivers again?" ”
"Lu Chao, you want to rebel? Heaven and earth will destroy such arrogant people as you. Su Qin looked at Yinghua, who fell to the ground, still bleeding from his head, and roared angrily.
"Wrong, Doctor Su, I'm not trying to rebel, I'm trying to punish the traitor, the Qingjun. Fan Sui, this villain, in the past few years, has been about to collapse our Great Qin, Great Qin is in danger, as a general of Great Qin, the first king entrusted the important ministers of state affairs, how can I allow traitors like Fan Sui to go perverse, naturally I must be loyal to the king's affairs and eliminate traitors for the country, generals, do you say? ”
"I am willing to follow the general, punish the traitor, clear the king's side, and return my great Qin to the rivers and mountains!" In the lobby, dozens of generals roared in unison, and Su Qin looked at these murderous generals, his legs were weak, and he sat down on the ground.
He understood that the sky of Great Qin was about to fall.
Xu Yahua strode out, turned Yinghua's body over, groped in his arms for a while, took out the king's order, and presented it to Lu Chao with both hands.
Unfolding the edict, Lu Chao sneered and said: "Sure enough, he wants to take my life, Doctor Su, today Lu has gathered some of the soldiers stationed in Hangu Pass, and he is on standby under Hangu Pass at this time, so he will borrow you and this royal order to let everyone see, how far has our king been harmed by villains now, right?"
