Chapter 5: Guo Xun of Hanshou Mansion sacrificed his life to stab Fei Yi, and Niu Mang at the capital gate whipped Huang Feng angrily

In the Hanshou Houya, there is a peaceful and lively scene.

It was the first festival of the year, and Fei Yi, who was the prime minister and general of Shu at the time, was drinking with everyone in the hall while enjoying the singing and dancing of the wizards in the hall.

The wizard led a group of men wearing hideous masks who were beating the drums on their waists, and every time the wizard chanted a word, everyone sang along with them.

"The earth is the opposite!" The wizard chanted.

"The earth is the opposite!" And they sang along

"The water is its ravine!" The wizard tapped his rhythm and thumped hard against a large shield.

"The water is its ravine!" The dancers in hideous masks chanted together.

…………

This is a festival that began at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, every time at this time, the government always invites the sorcerer to come to practice, begging the sky to beg for a bumper harvest in the coming year, because of this, the first festival of the year must be very lively in the cities and towns of the whole Chinese land, and the scholars and doctors will rarely sing and dance with the mud legs in the field, in the ancients believed that only today they are equal to the people of heaven.

Due to the fact that Fei Yi came to Hanshou to inspect a few years ago, it led to the first festival of this year, Fei Yi had to spend it with the local scholar government in Hanshou, but this did not affect Fei Yi's mood, he understood how hard-won all this in front of him was, since Wuhou Liu's out of Qishan, Shu's national strength was almost hollowed out, since its more than ten years of governance, Shu gradually showed signs of prosperity, all of which is a clear proof of its merits.

"Fei Xiang, the lower official will give you a drink. I wish my Shu Han a smooth year in the coming year. A military general sat behind the desk and raised a glass to Fei Yiyao, it was Guo Xun, the general of the left.

"Okay, General Guo, please" Fei Yi raised his glass to Guo Xun and said, "Drink it." Then he picked up the bottle and put it to his lips to drink.

"Wait!" At this time, Guo Xun stopped him and said with a smile: "Fei Xiang, when General Wang Ping toasted to Fei Xiang, Fei Xiang drank a whole bottle of wine, but when it was my turn to respect Fei Xiang, why did Fei Xiang only drink half a bottle?" Why is there such a thing as one over the other? ”

"That's not the case for me." Fei Yi said with a smile, and then instructed the maid next to him: "Pour full, pour full." ”

"Let me personally pour wine for Fei Xiang, the maids around Fei Xiang, I don't believe it." Guo Xun laughed, stepped forward, and took the wine jug from the maid's hand.

"It's fine. Forgiveness. Fei Yi smiled, got up and held the wine bottle with his right hand and handed it out.

"Haha, look at me to pour wine for Fei Xiang......" Guo Xun smiled while stretching out the wine jug, which seemed to be ready to pour wine.

"There's General Lao Guo." Fei Yi said with a smile.

At this time, Guo Xuntu flashed a short knife from his sleeve and plunged it straight into Fei Yi's chest. It wasn't until the short knife entered his chest that Fei Yi realized that Guo Xun was stabbing him.

"You...... Why do you want to ......" Fei Yi stretched out his hand and pointed at Guo Xun tremblingly, and asked with difficulty.

"Why? I am Wei Chen, I have no chance to assassinate the Lord of Shu several times, can I still assassinate Ru Feiyi? Guo Xun said with a cruel smile.

"Ahh

At this time, the music in the hall had stopped early, and the sound of drawing swords was endless, and all the guards and soldiers noticed that something was wrong and immediately rushed forward.

Guo Xun pulled out the short knife, and Fei Yi fell to the ground. I saw Guo Xun laughing and saying: "In exchange for my life, in exchange for the life of Shu Xiang, I will not lose." Lord Wei, today I Guo will be loyal and gone! Then he killed himself with a knife and immediately died of anger.

At this time, Wang Ping rushed forward, supported Fei Yi, probed Fei Yi's snort with his hand, and immediately cried: "The prime minister is gone." ”

The whole hall burst into tears. (Note 1)

At this time, in the Luoyang Taifu Mansion, Sima Yi was also sighing.

"Father is sorry for Guo Xun and Guo Xiaoxian?" Sima Rui asked.

"Exactly, Xiu (Guo Xun's name) is my confidant, and he has the talent to be in a hurry, and now he has abandoned it, and I am very sorry." Sima Yi said.

"If my father feels that he can't follow that Guo, when my Sima clan returns to the government, he will reward his son more, and now my Sima clan is in crisis, please cheer up my father." Sima Rui persuaded.

Sima Yi nodded and said, "What Wu'er said is reasonable. ”

Sima Rui suddenly smiled and said: "Father, after Fei Yi dies, Jiang Wei will preside over the Shu Dynasty, and the child suddenly has a plan, which can separate the monarchs and ministers of the Shu Kingdom." ”

Sima Yi said with a smile: "My son will try to talk about it to see if it is consistent with his father's thoughts." ”

Sima Rui said: "When rewarding Guo Xun in the future, my father can deliberately write Guo Xun's name wrong, so ......"

Sima Yi said with a smile: "This is Cao Cao's separation between Ma Chao and Han Sui, and my son and his father think of one place." ”

Sima Yi's father and son glanced at each other, and Gu Du laughed......

At this time, the three of Wei Yuan were outside the south gate of Chengdu, waiting in line to enter the city.

"If it is my Shu Han capital, how prosperous it is." Wei Yuan sighed as he looked at the tall and majestic city walls and the city gates.

"What Brother Liao said is very true, Shudu is indeed the most prosperous place in my Shu Han, but this fashion is at the city gate, and after entering the city, the eldest brother can appreciate the real prosperity of my Shu capital." Shangguan Xingye sat on the car, opened the curtains on the carriage with his hand, and said with a smile.

In fact, Wei Yuan has been known all the way as Liao Yuan, and Wei Yuan's name is his most secret thing, and even Niu Mang at this time does not know, let alone others.

"When you go into the city, you will ask the girl to explain it to my two brothers." Wei Yuan said with a smile.

"That's natural, in the more than two months on this road, Ye'er felt the care of the two eldest brothers, and after entering the city, he will introduce the scene of Shudu to the two brothers." Shangguan Hoshino said with a smile. At first, when the three of them first set off, Shangguan Xingye Shang called Wei Yuan and the two Engong, and later became familiar with each other, so they called the two brothers and called themselves Ye'er.

"Why do we have to queue up to enter the city, and those people can go straight inside without any interception?" Niu Mang stared at his eyes, sat in the position of the royal hand in front of the car and said in an urn voice.

"Brother Niu doesn't know, those people are all eunuchs, and there is no need to pay taxes or queue up to enter the city." Shangguan Hoshino explained.

At this moment, a group of people beat horses past the car, the first one was a person dressed in brocade clothes, holding a feather fan, thin, about seven feet tall, his face showed an overindulgent and unhealthy pale color, he saw Shangguan Xingye leaning on the window of the car at a glance, and couldn't help but sigh, "Childe, my luck is really good, I actually met such a beauty!" ”

In fact, Shangguan Xingye's daughter can indeed be said to be a beautiful woman in the city, with a lock of beautiful hair flying slightly under the breeze, slender willow eyebrows, a pair of eyes looking forward to shining, a straight nose, jade cheeks slightly red, white as snow and delicate as jade, and a pair of delicate lips. The delicate sweat that looms on the forehead due to the tiredness of the long journey adds to the astonishing beauty.

I saw that the boy directly hit the horse forward, and laughed at Shangguan Xingye: "Which girl are you?" But going into the city? You can go into the city with your brother without queuing up to pay taxes! ”

Shangguan Xingye didn't like it, but he didn't answer, he directly pulled down the curtains of the car window and sat in the car without making a sound. At this time, Wei Yuan had no choice but to drive his horse forward, and said: "Don't work for this son to help, I'll just enter the city by myself, and the son should please do it." ”

I saw that Huang Feng shook the feather fan in his hand, glanced at the linen clothes on Wei Yuan's body, and said, "Who are you?" Dare to mind my Huang Feng's business? What does it matter to you that I speak to the girl? Then he parked the horse directly next to the car and said with a smile: "The girl didn't say a word and closed the window directly, did she want my brother to get in the car?" My brother knows, my sister treats me, and my brother comes. Then he lifted his leg and jumped directly from the horse to the car, and then went straight into the carriage with a shy face.

Niu Mang was suddenly furious, stretched out his hand to pick Huang Feng up, and directly threw him to the ground, and said angrily: "What a ruffian, you dare to be wild in front of Nai Weng, be careful of your dog's head!" ”

Fortunately, Niu Mang knew that this place was Shudu, and it was not good to kill people in public, otherwise the force of that blow was enough to smash Huang Feng to death, and it was only after Huang Feng was broken for a long time that he was relieved, he pointed at Niu Mang and said angrily: "Bold, you actually dare to bully me, do you know that my father is Huang Danhu, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites?" Then he shouted to the entourage around him, "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you kill this reckless man with me? ”

All the attendants of Haonu immediately rode up, surrounded the carriage, and all of them held horsewhips, and beat the bulls indiscriminately.

Niu Mang was furious, stretched out his hand and grabbed a horse whip, and then stood on the car, beating left and right, how could the slaves be their opponents, one by one they were beaten crying dad and shouting mother, and their heads were bleeding.

At this time, the movement had alarmed the soldiers at the city gate, and I saw a team of about 30 people rushing out of the city gate, quickly surrounding the carriage, and the general led by Huang Feng knew Huang Feng, and said to Huang Feng: "Huang Gongzi, what happened?" ”

Huang Feng pointed at Niu Mang and shouted in disbelief: "Jiang Yi, this person is a spy of the Wei State, quickly take it down with me!" ”

When Niu Mang heard this, he was even more furious, jumped directly from the carriage, and hit Huang Feng with a horsewhip in his hand, and shouted loudly while beating back: "Nai Weng is a spy? Nayon is a spy? Today, Nayon will kill you scumbag! ”

Seeing this, Jiang Yi shouted directly at Niu Mang: "Thief, don't stop with me!" Then he ordered: "Arrest this thief for me, and if you resist, kill him on the spot!" The guards hurried forward with spears in hand.

Seeing this, Wei Yuan drove his horse forward and said to Jiang Yi: "This commander, my brother is a person from Wuyang, he was just about to enter the city today, and he was entangled by this guy. ”

Jiang Yi sneered: "It turns out that there are accomplices, take this guy down together!" ”

Wei Yuan was furious, and drove his horse directly to Jiang Yi, and when Jiang Yi was still in the future and reacted, he had already sandwiched Jiang Yi under his ribs, and shouted: "Since this is the case, it is okay if this Shu is not entered." If you do not order all your guards to retreat, or I will fall you to death today!" ”

At this time, Shangguan Xingye lifted the curtains in the car and shouted, "Brother Liao, you want to do it!" Let go of the official (Note 2) and wait for Ye'er to share with him. ”

Wei Yuanshi threw Jiang Yi on the ground, and before Jiang Yi could speak, Shangguan Xingye said: "We are people from the Wuhou Mansion, can the officials really detain us as thieves?" ”

Jiang Yi was shocked and said, "You woman, do you want to deceive me?" That is, the people in the Wuhou Mansion, why did they enter the city and queue up? ”

Shangguan Xingye took out a waist plate from the car, handed it to Niu Mang, and said, "Please tell Brother Niu to convey it." ”

Niu Mang took it and threw it to Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi caught it and only shook his whole arm sore, he didn't care about this, and looked straight at the waist card. I saw that the waist card was actually made of bamboo, and there was an orchid carved on it, which was unremarkable. But Jiang Yi couldn't help but change color, and said: "This is the token of Mrs. Wuhou, who are you?" ”

"The maid is Shangguan Xingye, the daughter of Shangguan Qingyi." Shangguan Hoshino replied: "My Shangguan family originally belonged to Mrs. Wuhou, so should the officials really want to detain me?" ”

Jiang Yi bowed down and replied: "Even if she is the daughter of the master craftsman's official family, it is really a misunderstanding, and please do not inform Mrs. Wuhou of this matter." ”

Shangguan Hoshino replied: "Madame never pays attention to such trivial matters, and the maid will not bother her old man with this matter." ”

At this time, Huang Feng shouted on the side: "Even the master craftsman, the lowly ear, dares to take the token of Mrs. Wuhou to get rid of the crime, although Jiang Yi detains them, everything is in my father's decision!" ”

Niu Mang said angrily: "You haven't been beaten enough? ”

Huang Feng didn't dare to speak again.

Jiang Yi then smiled at Wei Yuan and said, "Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, please go directly to the city." ”

Wei Yuan didn't answer, and drove his horse forward, Niu Mang followed closely behind, and finally entered the long-famous Shu Han capital. Only Huang Feng and his party were left in place, and everyone stared at Wei Yuan and his party with hateful eyes.

******

Note 1: Regarding the assassination of Fei Yi, there are two theories in history, one is that he was assassinated by Guo Xun in Hanshou during the first festival of the year in 247 AD, and the other is that he was assassinated by Guo Xun in the Prime Minister's Mansion in 253 AD. After Guo Xun assassinated Fei Yi, it was rumored that he was beheaded by Shu general Wang Ping, and there are also rumors that he was killed by Fei Yi's guards, and it is also said that he committed suicide, because the cause of Guo Xun's death cannot be determined, and it can only be confirmed that Guo Xun Fei Yi died in one day, and all this information can show this. In addition, it was not until 255 A.D. that Wei issued a holy decree to commend Guo Xun's heroic assassination, and crowned Guo Xun's eldest viscount, but in the holy decree Guo Xun's name was written as Guo Xun, neither Guo Xun's real name Guo Xiu, nor his cousin Guo Xiaoxian, and therefore Shu Huang Hao said to Shu lord Liu Chan that the person who killed Fei Yi was done by the Shu general Jiang Wei, because only Fei Yi died Jiang Wei could become the position of a general, Huang Hao's proposal to retaliate against Jiang Wei made Jiang Wei have no way to push, only to lead the army to the countryside to avoid trouble. In the later period, although Jiang Wei's life was saved, there was also a gap between him and the lord of Shu, and it was not lifted until the fall of Shu.
