Chapter 974: Feng Wang Ce (I)

It wasn't until the moment he walked out of Chang'an City that the string that had been tense in Pei Ju's heart was completely released, and he turned his head to look at the ancient city behind him with palpitations.

Before the mission, Pei Ju thought that this trip would only be thrilling, but the fact is that he far underestimated the thrill of this trip.

In the past few days since arriving in Chang'an, Pei Ju obviously felt that he was being targeted by more than one force.

Pei Ju didn't know whether these people who were eyeing him wanted to protect him, assassinate him, or both, and he was already caught in the whirlpool of the game of the major dark forces.

Therefore, since the internal force was sealed, Pei Ju has not dared to relax for a day, and he will even check several times when he eats and drinks.

Not surprisingly, someone secretly poisoned Pei Ju and wanted to poison Pei Ju to sabotage the negotiations of the Liang Army.

From entering Chang'an to leaving, Pei Ju only had a total of three days, but he experienced no less than ten assassinations.

If Pei Ju's vigilance wasn't strong enough, I'm afraid he would have been in a different place a long time ago, but fortunately he still broke into this Longtan tiger's den.

"Hoo ......"

Feeling the gradual recovery of the internal force in his body, Pei Ju couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbidity, and whispered to himself: "Fortunately, I came this time, and if I change someone else, I may not be able to go back." ”

Speaking of this, the cold light in Pei Ju's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "These unsightly bed bugs, go down, dare to appear in front of my evil king, come and kill as many Lao Tzu as possible." ”

After saying that, Pei Ju immediately rode his horse and, escorted by a group of guards, rushed towards Luoyang in the east.

Chang'an City, above the city tower, Dong Zhuo looked at Pei Ju's back with a cold face.

It wasn't until Pei Ju's figure completely disappeared that Dong Zhuofang said lightly to Lu Buwei beside him: "Send someone to keep an eye on Pei Ju, as soon as this person arrives in Chang'an, some of the ghosts and spirits will begin to be restless, and there may be a connection between them." ”

"No." Lü Buwei replied in a deep voice.

Dong Zhuo was expressionless, silent for a long time, and didn't know what he was thinking, but after half a sound, he asked, "Military advisor, do you say that Shimin is really dead?" ”

Lu Buwei was silent for a moment and said, "Lord, this possibility is not impossible, but it is not high. ”

"Oh? Why? Dong Zhuo asked indifferently.

"A general of General Li's level, even if he dies in battle, he won't even be able to find a little severed limb and wreckage.

Of course, the possibility of no bones can be ruled out, but his subordinates still believe that it is more likely that General Li will be captured alive. ”

Dong Zhuo nodded approvingly and asked, "Then did you say that the coalition forces would release Shimin?" ”

"It's impossible." Lu Buwei said with an affirmative face.

Dong Zhuo immediately took a deep breath when he heard this, and did not continue to ask why, because he already knew his answer.

This is just like Dong Zhuosheng captured Qin Hao, and Qin Wen came to ask him for it, Dong Zhuo would never agree.

"Summoned Li Xiuning, she will be fully responsible for the negotiation with the coalition forces, and also ordered Liang Wei to rescue Li Shimin at all costs."

"No."

A trace of exhaustion flashed on Dong Zhuo's face, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Immediately send someone to Kunlun Mountain to inform the Taiqing Daoist of the news that Shimin was captured." ”

"But my lord, the Taoist has said before that he will not participate in the affairs of my Liang army."

"This is not only my Liangjun's business, but also his Taoist business. After all, Shimin is also Taiqing's grandson, so he won't watch Shimin die. ”

"This ...... Quite right. ”

————————

In September of the first year of Zhongping (189), the princes of the 36th Road met with the alliance in Suanzao, and elected Qin Hao, the Taishou of Nanyang, as the leader of the alliance.

Qin Hao did not attack immediately, but ordered the coalition army to conduct two months of training for his wife, and then launched the third battle of Tiger Prison Pass, and then divided his troops into three ways to attack the other three passes in Sizhou.

Until Qin Haoguang broke through the Tiger Pass, the other two roads broke through the southern checkpoint, and the third army converged with Luoyang, more than half a year had passed, and the time had also reached April of the second year of Zhongping (190).

Luoyang was also quickly breached, and Qin Hao sent envoys to negotiate, and the negotiation process did not take too long.

In the second year of Zhongping, May 8.

As the envoy of the coalition forces, Pei Ju returned to Luoyang and brought back the good news of Dong Zhuo's compromise.

As soon as this news came out, the coalition forces collectively boiled, after all, this means that the war is about to end and peace is coming!

As for the conditions proposed by Dong Zhuo, they were subconsciously ignored by the princes, after all, in their opinion, since Dong Zhuo, who has always been strong, can compromise once, then he will definitely be able to compromise a second time.

As for Pei Ju, who sacrificed his life to envoy Dong Ying, he was regarded as a hero by all the coalition forces, and his deeds of fighting hundreds of officials were also widely spread among the coalition forces, and quickly radiated to the whole world, which also made Pei Ju's fame skyrocket.

After learning everything from Pei Juna, Qin Hao was far less optimistic than the princes.

Dong Zhuo firmly believes that Li Shimin is still alive, and does not hesitate to return Li Shimin as the only price for the truce, which is obviously to regard Li Shimin as his successor, so it is even more impossible for Qin Hao to let Li Shimin go.

In Qin Hao's heart, Li Shimin's value is even greater than that of the entire four counties of Sizhou, and the reason why he did not kill Li Shimin for the time being was just to squeeze out his last surplus value.

When Li Shimin loses the last use value, Qin Hao will not hesitate to kill Li Shimin, and then return Li Shimin's body to Dong Zhuo, making him completely dead.

Don't look at Dong Zhuo's tough attitude now, but for him, Li Shimin's life is valuable, once he dies, everything will be the same, and he will never continue to die for a dead person and Qin Hao.

This time, Li Xiuning is the negotiation envoy of the Liang Army, and she will use the key to the treasure of Heaven in exchange for the life of her second brother, but what Li Xiuning doesn't know is that she will personally ring the death knell for her brother.

"Lord, Li Xiuning has entered Luoyang City." Lang Yuyu reported.

When Qin Hao heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and said with a smile: "The key is here, let's go, let's go and meet her together." ”

What Qin Hao didn't know was that when he went to see Li Xiuning, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers got together again, and he didn't know what was conspiring again.

"Big brother, Dong Zhuo's old thief has been coaxed, and if he continues like this, I'm afraid that Sizhou will really fall into Qin Hao's hands."

Yuan Shu's words also made Yuan Shao's brows furrow, but there was really no way to do it, who let the forces of other princes not border with Sizhou, and the people who bordered were all small princes like Wang Shichong, who could neither compete nor have the courage to fight with Qin Hao!

"Qin Hao is the leader of the coalition army, and he takes advantage of the situation to guard the four counties of Sizhou, which is a legitimate thing, and no one except him has this qualification. But ......"

A trace of coldness flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, and he said lightly: "I, Yuan Benchu, would not let him get Sizhou so easily. ”
