511. Liu Bei ascended the throne
On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, it is advisable to sacrifice, crown, etc. Cai Yong chose this day for Liu Bei. As early as May, Jian Yong led people to build a high platform in the east of Xuchang City. Now that the platform has been completed, a team of soldiers has been sent to guard the place.
Early in the morning of the fifth day of the fifth month of May, Liu Bei bathed and changed clothes. Then he took the minister of civil and military affairs and rushed to the high platform by car. All the way unimpeded, and came to the bottom of the high platform.
Liu Bei got out of the car and was led by Jian Yong and others to the top of the high platform. Finally, he stood down on the high platform alone, and then Liu Bei took out a small piece of paper from his sleeve, on which was a sacrificial question, which was used to worship the heavens.
As Liu Bei began to recite the sacrificial text, the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens began. At this moment, from the south, east, west, and north, a team of black-clothed men came over and killed. It turned out that Cao Pi and Sun Quan had conspired for a long time, planning to kill Liu Bei in one fell swoop when he was sacrificing to the sky.
It's just that at such an important moment, how could Liu Bei be defenseless. What's more, Han Fei had already reminded Liu Bei that assassination must be prevented. On the high platform, Liu Bei immediately sneered when he saw the man in black who jumped out. With his sneer, some people stood up from the crowd and rushed to kill the man in black.
The two sides fought under the high platform, and the man in black was selected to carry out this task, which shows that the martial arts of these people are very unusual. But Liu Bei's dark sword was obviously superior. The battle between the two sides continued, and in a short time there were already a lot of dead people.
At this moment, someone ran up to the high platform, this person was a guard in the audience, he ran up to the high platform and saluted Liu Bei and said: "Lord Qiqi, the audience is too small, and it is not safe on this high platform, the military advisor will let you go down and take shelter for a while!" ”
Liu Bei didn't care after speaking, but the guard who ran up to the high platform didn't turn back. Instead, when Liu Bei was not paying attention, he quietly walked towards Liu Bei's side.
Liu Bei's personal guard followed Liu Bei, and when he saw that the guard was acting abnormally, he scolded loudly: "What are you doing? Don't go down yet! Is this a place where you can stop by casually? As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the man take a sharp step forward, and a knife came out of his hand and stabbed the guard in the throat. Then he drew his knife, and a bloody arrow erupted. The guard clutched his neck and couldn't say a word, staring at his eyes and falling to the ground without looking at him.
"Ah, there are assassins!" There were a total of four guards on the high platform, and when they saw their companions killed, the remaining three all shouted. The two drew their weapons and ran for the assassin disguised as guards. The other quickly retreated to Liu Bei's side, blocking Liu Bei behind him. It was too late, it was too late, everything happened between the lightning and flint, and it was only a few breaths from the time the first guard was killed to the other two rushing up. At this time, the assassin moved, and instead of dodging, he rushed towards the two of them, and the three figures overlapped and separated, and then the two guards all clutched their necks and showed painful expressions.
Immediately afterwards, the blood flowed out along the fingers of the two, and they couldn't cover it at all. It turned out that the moment they made contact, the assassin wiped their necks with two swings of the knife. With extreme unwillingness and infinite attachment to this world, the two fell to the ground together. The assassin flicked his knife and killed three of them, but there was not a drop of blood on his knife. It's a good knife!
At this time, the assassin raised his head, his eyes crossed over the last guard, and directly locked onto Liu Bei behind the guard. That is his ultimate goal, only by killing Liu Bei, everything he has done today will be meaningful. The black-clothed people in the audience are all to cover him, they are all dead soldiers, in order to create a chance for him to climb the high platform, everything is about to end, and those people will not die in vain. Thinking of this, he clenched the knife in his hand and rushed towards Liu Bei to kill him.
Just as he had taken a step, suddenly the planks under his feet cracked, and two people jumped out from under the high platform, these two people were also dressed in black, but their masks were purple. As soon as the two appeared, they flashed their swords and stabbed at the assassin. These two people are the ones who protect Liu Bei's dark sword. They are Liu Bei's real hole cards.
The assassin didn't expect that Liu Bei still had a master by his side, and he desperately blocked the knife in his hand, but only had time to block one sword, and the other sword was directly stabbed on his soft underbelly. The assassin snorted, and the knife in his hand slashed sideways, forcing the two men to take a step back. He seized the opportunity and passed between the two of them with a straight body, rushing towards Liu Bei like crazy. The two of them knew that they had been fooled at this moment, and immediately turned around and chased, and the long sword stabbed at the vital point behind him.
But this assassin was already dying at this time, and only Liu Bei was left in his eyes. Even if he dies, Liu Bei will be killed. Seeing that he rushed in front of the last guard, the sword flashed and slashed at his neck. Originally, he didn't want to be a knife, but he was dodged by the guard. The assassin was about to flash to the side when a glint flashed in his eyes. Then he felt the world spin for a while, and then he saw a headless corpse and a shiny steel knife. "A knife that's still fast, faster than mine......"
At this time, the guard who came out of the knife raised his head, revealing Guan Yu's face. It turned out that he had always been by Liu Bei's side, and he was the only one who could use such a fast knife. All this was Han Fei's arrangement, he expected that Liu Bei's enthronement ceremony would not be peaceful, so he asked Guan Yu to pretend to be a personal guard and follow Liu Bei to the high platform, while Guan Yu in the audience was a person about his stature, wearing his armor standing there. Originally, it was to prevent trouble, but I didn't expect it to really reach the point where Guan Yu needed to take action.
The assassins were killed, and the men in black under the high platform were quickly killed. After the body was cleaned away, the enthronement ceremony began again. This time, no one came to make trouble again, and Liu Bei registered as the emperor in a wave of praise.
