Chapter 6 The beginning of the turmoil
Looking at the little emperor who suddenly appeared outside the hall, listening to his cruel words full of hatred, Xiahou Xuanba only felt that his whole body was like falling into the ice cave of the cold nine months, at this time, I don't know if it was the effect of the medicine or something else, Xiahou Xuanba only felt that he had no strength at all.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and I saw Xiahou Xuanba looking at the little emperor outside the hall motionlessly, and the group of imperial forest soldiers around him also seemed to have forgotten to attack, just holding their weapons and looking at Xiahou Xuanba stupidly.
At this time, Xiahou Xuanba was like a fierce beast trapped in a trap.
Bai You stepped forward and stood in front of the little emperor, looking at Xiahou Xuanba with a wary expression. Although Xiahou Xuanba is now like a trapped beast, it is often this trapped beast that is forced to the edge of the cliff that is the most terrifying when it fights to the death.
I don't know how long it took, Xiahou Xuanba's gaze gradually moved away from the little emperor's body, then looked at the corpses everywhere, and finally looked around the body of the group of imperial forest soldiers surrounding him...... In the end, he made a move that no one expected, only to see that he actually threw away the straight knife in his hand, completely gave up resistance, and put on an appearance of being slaughtered.
"Don't get rid of him yet." Bai You shouted.
When the Imperial Forest Army heard this, they reacted, and several people put their swords on Xiahou Xuanba's neck, and a large net was immediately put down, and soon Xiahou Xuanba was tied up by the Imperial Forest Army, and the sword was added......
The little emperor sat on the dragon chair, looking at Xiahou Xuanba, who was controlled by several royal forest soldiers below, and suddenly laughed extremely happily, laughing extremely crazy, pointing at His Royal Highness Xiahou Xuanba, and sneering: "Old thief, you didn't expect it, right?" You didn't think you'd be where you are today, did you? You didn't expect it, but I thought about it, and I didn't think about it all the time, and I didn't think about cutting you into thousands of pieces and slash......ing you with a thousand knives."
Xiahou Xuanba quietly looked at His Majesty, whom he wanted to be loyal to, and listened to his words full of resentment towards him...... It's strange that Xiahou Xuanba doesn't have much anger in his heart at this time, but more just endless sadness and absurdity.
recalled that just now, he heard that the little emperor suddenly fell ill, and he didn't even bring his entourage, so he rushed into the palace in a hurry...... But he never thought that all this was a trap prepared for him by the little emperor. Even, just before the little emperor appeared outside the palace gate, he didn't want to believe that all this would be the intention of His Majesty the Emperor, and he was still worried about the safety of His Majesty the Emperor......
But now?
How could he never have imagined that this monarch he wanted to protect would really want to kill him? I have to say, all this seems ironic. There is a saying that "mourning is greater than heart death", and Xiahou Xuanba is like this at this time. At this moment, he was already very disappointed in this little emperor, so he just looked at the little emperor in silence and did not speak.
"Haha......"
The little emperor looked at Xiahou Xuanba and said proudly: "Old thief, why don't you speak?" You must be confused, right? You don't understand how they can catch you, right? ”
The little emperor suddenly stood up from the chair, picked up the incense on the table, and said with a smug smile: "Do you know what this is?" ”
Without waiting for Xiahou Xuanba to react, he saw that the little emperor began to explain himself: "Don't look at it, it only has such a small box, but this small box will be your year's worth of money." Look at what price I paid to kill you? There are ten boxes of incense alone...... This is the secret technique of my Win clan, specially prepared for a rebellious and thief like you, who is a powerful bully, how about it? Does it smell good? Haha......"
The little emperor said in a frenzied manner, "Aren't you very powerful? Don't you have the courage to stand still? Why can't you do it now......"
Xiahou Xuanba didn't say a word from beginning to end, just looked at the little emperor quietly and let the little emperor play his performance.
The little emperor pointed at Xiahou Xuanba and cursed for a long time, as if he wanted to vent all his grievances over the years. After a long time, seeing that Xiahou Xuanba did not cry and beg for mercy as he expected, the little emperor was even more angry.
"Old thief, don't you have anything to say before you die?" The little emperor sneered.
Xiahou Xuanba didn't want to say much, but looking at the little emperor's distorted face at this time, he finally couldn't help but speak: "The minister has a question." ”
"You say."
"The minister wants to ask, the king of the Great Shadow treats the loyal ministers and virtuous like this, who will dare to work for the king of the Great Shadow in the future?" Xiahou Xuanba said extremely unwillingly.
"Hahaha......" The little emperor listened to Xiahou Xuanba's words, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he had heard an extremely ridiculous joke, and scolded angrily: "Phew! Your Xiahou clan also dares to call yourself loyal and good generals? You're a bunch of thieves......"
The little emperor pointed to the corpses of the group of Imperial Guards on the ground and said, "Look at it, you open your eyes and take a good look, they... They are my loyal and good generals, and as for you, you are a rebel and thief......"
"I ask you, have you come to this point, do you accept it or not?"
"The old minister is not convinced."
Xiahou Xuanba never thought that in the heart of the little emperor, he would always identify him as a rebellious minister and thief, and at this time he couldn't help but defend himself: "The loyalty of the old minister to His Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon...... The old minister dared to say that what the old minister did was worthy of the first emperor's deathbed entrustment, worthy of the Great You Empire, and even more worthy of Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, you want to kill the minister, and the minister has no complaints, because 'the king wants the minister to die, and the minister is not dead and disloyal', but if you frame the minister for rebellion? The ministers are a hundred and ten thousand disobedient ......"
"Haha...... Are you still wronged? The little emperor pointed at Xiahou Xuanba's nose and shouted: "Since the death of the old lady, your Xiahou family is in charge of the army alone, and the other is in charge of the six departments. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister admits that the minister has trespassed, but the minister has no intention of rebellion!"
"At that time, Your Majesty was young, and his words and deeds were not enough to deter the ministers and princes, and the old ministers were entrusted with the heavy responsibility of the first emperor, and before Your Majesty grew up, he should bear the wind and rain of the world for His Majesty...... As Your Majesty said, at that time, the prestige of my Xiahou clan was unparalleled in the world, if the old minister really had the heart of disobedience, he only needed to abolish the lord immediately, so why ......"
"That's enough."
The little emperor interrupted Xiahou Xuanba's words and scolded angrily: "Don't say that you are so great, do you think you haven't thought about it? The reason why you don't dare to abolish the lord and stand on your own feet is not because you are loyal, but because you don't dare, you are afraid that I will summon the princes of the world, King Qin, and the lessons of the Marquis of Dongche are still there......"
"Good!"
"Then, the old minister asked Your Majesty, if the old minister really has the heart of disobedience, why should he let the Jiazi Battalion hand over the defense of Kyoto? Is it not good for the minister to directly let the Jiazi battalion control the imperial capital and blackmail His Majesty to order the princes? Xiahou Xuanba explained.
"Humph! Do you think I'll believe your nonsense? I don't know what you, an old thief, have in mind, but your loyalty is not what you say it is...... Besides, if you are really loyal and courageous, why do you need to put a battalion outside the city? What do you think you're thinking, I don't know? Do you think that one day, when you really don't listen to you, you will transfer the Jiazi battalion in to take over the city defense as you did at the beginning? No! Perhaps by the time I hang your head on the wall tomorrow, the rebels loyal to you will be killed...... But don't worry, since I dare to kill you, how can I not consider this, and you wait in the underworld, or it won't be long before those rebellious ministers and thieves like you will go down to accompany you......"
"Your Majesty, do you know that the Jiazi Battalion has moved away from the imperial capital......
"Shut up."
"You don't have to defend yourself anymore, tell you the truth! It's not been a day or two since I wanted to kill you, and I've been thinking about cutting you with a thousand knives, skinning and cramping all the time......"
The little emperor laughed frantically and said, "You wait for a while, and when my prime minister and your brother are captured, I will send you two brothers on the road together." I will first kill you two rebellious ministers and thieves, and then punish you Xiahou Manmen Nine Clans, I want to make the world no longer have the surname 'Xiahou'......"
"Haha......" Xiahou Xuanba suddenly laughed loudly, and the tears and snot of laughter flowed out, but Xiahou Xuanba didn't stop, still laughing.
"Old horseman, what are you laughing at?" The little emperor asked loudly.
"Haha...... The old man laughed at himself, and the old man laughed at himself for being blind and blind, and he would want to be loyal to such a stupid and unreasonable mediocre lord as you...... Xiahou Xuanba burst into tears with laughter, and no longer called the little emperor His Majesty, but directly said "you".
I saw Xiahou Xuanba then ask: "The old minister asks you, after the old minister dies, who can calm the princes for you in the future and protect you from the country?" ”
"You don't have to worry about this, my country is guarded by the descendants ......of the Zhen Ying clan," the little emperor said.
At this moment, a royal forest soldier knelt outside the hall and said that there was something to report, and after Bai You went out, he came back and whispered a few words in the little emperor's ear.
After hearing this, the little emperor's face suddenly changed, pointed at Xiahou Xuanba, and said angrily: "Is this the loyalty of your Xiahou family?" If you are really loyal and have a clear conscience, then you tell me why Xiahou Wenyuan said goodbye without saying goodbye? This old fox dares to deceive me? This is the crime of deceiving the king, and when I catch him, I must cut him with a thousand knives......"
"Don't go...... If you don't go, will you be buried with this faint gentleman in the future? Xiahou Xuanba scoffed.
"Shut up."
The little emperor couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, snatched the sword from the hand of the Imperial Forest Army on the side, and went up and stabbed it directly into Xiahou Xuanba's abdomen, and then pulled it out and stabbed it again...... The little emperor stabbed a dozen swords in one breath as if venting, and then stopped.
Xiahou Xuanba's body was full of holes and blood flowed like a pillar at this time, but he was not yet angry, I saw him open his eyes wide, looking at the little emperor with a mouth full of blood, his mouth opened and closed, as if he was saying something.
"What did you say?" The little emperor involuntarily put his ear up.
I wonder what the little emperor heard? He actually stabbed Xiahou Xuanba several times in a row, and then waved his hand and commanded loudly at the group of royal forest soldiers: "Divide the corpse of ten thousand knives for me." ”
……
……
A generation of famous generals who were deeply entrusted by the first emperor and the general of the Zhenguo of the Great You Empire did not die honorably on the battlefield, but died in the hands of the monarch he wanted to be loyal to, and he had not yet ended up with a whole corpse.
What the little emperor didn't know at this time was that with the death of Xiahou Xuanba, the general of Zhenguo, the whole world officially began to become turbulent. And because of this incident, he was named a faint king/tyrant by the people of the world, and since then he has completely lost the support of the people......
This year is the ninth year of Long Qian, and it is also the five hundred and ninety-second year of the Great Shadow Era, and it is still a short eight years before the number of lives approved by Boya Zhenren for the Great Shadow Empire.
