Chapter 120: The Snake Slashing Sword
A few days later, he received a letter from Zhao Yun, Guo Yi glanced at it, and handed it to Fan Xin next to him.
"Zilong said that he would keep filial piety for three years, and he couldn't come to Luoyang for the time being." Guo Yi lay on the back of the chair, his fingers gently tapping on the armrest, and his mind kept thinking about the cause of Zhao Da's death. Yan Hua is of course the most suspicious, but Guo Yi can't think of a reason for her to kill Zhao Da, and there is no motive for killing. Zhao Da should not offend her to the point of losing his life.
What's more, according to Zhao Yun's description, Zhao Da was assassinated by a sword in his yard during morning exercises, which was obviously premeditated, and judging from the time of Yan Hua's return and removal, it didn't seem like he had this time to plan.
But Zhao Da's force is not bad, and he also has some kung fu. The people who can seal his throat with a sword so accurately, Guo Yi knows only these few people.
"Rose, you can help me check Yan Hua's recent whereabouts."
The black shadow behind Guo Yi moved, and a figure appeared. Rose asked in a low voice, "To what extent?" β
"Just don't get noticed. If you move, you just run. Her martial arts are far above yours. β
"No." Rose bowed his head, then melted into the shadows like ink and vanished.
Fan Xin smiled and said, "Yan Hua shouldn't be his opponent. β
"That's why I want him to run." Guo Yi smiled bitterly, round of force, I am afraid that the only one who can beat Ross is himself. Yan Hua, Zhao Yun and the others just ate a dragon bone pill, but Ross was a character who could fight Guo Yi for hundreds of rounds before he ate the dragon bone pill. After officially serving in the service, in order to cure his back-eating injury, Guo Yi gave him twenty high-grade dragon bone pills, which finally strengthened him to the point where his self-repair ability was higher than the back-eating damage.
Guo Yi sighed: "It's a pity that Ellie's self-healing spell can't be learned by men, otherwise Ross would be the perfect killer." β
"You can't have both fish and bear's paws." Fan Xin smiled, handed over a booklet, and said, "Look at it, can the people on it be useful?" Our huge general's mansion can't just be like this. β
Guo Yi flipped through the pages, didn't see the names of any historical figures, and said helplessly: "Why don't we recruit customers?" Like the Yuan family, raise him hundreds of scholars, if nothing else, at least there is someone who can call him. β
"He is the fourth generation and third prince of the Yuan family, which is naturally extraordinary. The lord is now in the limelight, and if he recruits more customers, he is afraid that he will leave a solid mouth. Under the fence, you have to consider the concerns of the owner. β
"O family!" Guo Yi shook his head, this problem is really unsolvable, although he is already a high-ranking official, the scholars generally still look down on him as a poor child.
Fan Xin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he proposed: "Why don't you study the scriptures?" β
"Scripture?" Guo Yi spread his hands and said helplessly: "What's the use of so many poems and songs in my book?" β
"The scholars are all sour and rotten literati, and poetry and songs are not obvious learning, so they are naturally of little use." Fan Xin smiled and said: "The lord annotated the Analects, and found a master of scripture such as Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong and others to recommend it. In this way, the name of the Lord's contemporary Confucianism is there, and those celebrities will no longer dare to despise the Lord. β
"Let's put this on hold beforehand." Guo Yi waved his hand, this matter really can't be rushed, a hairy boy naturally can't have any authority in terms of scriptures.
While chatting, a eunuch came to report, "Master Taifu, the emperor has summoned." β
Guo Yi handed the scroll in his hand to Fan Xin and ordered, "Dispose of it." I'll go into the palace. β
Fan Xin nodded, "Okay." β
followed the eunuch into the West Garden, Jian Shuo was guarding at the door of the main hall, and the imperial doctors were busy. Seeing that Guo Yi had arrived, Jian Shuo said proudly: "Taifu, please." β
Guo Yi didn't have a good face, "I'm tired." β
When I entered the house, I saw Empress Dowager Dong, Empress He, Liu Bian, and Liu Xie all standing on the side, and when they saw Guo Yi, the two women had different looks, Empress Dowager Dong was fierce, and Empress He was proud. Guo Yi saluted slightly, and walked to the bed of Emperor Han Ling, the smell of medicine in the room was pungent and unpleasant, and Emperor Han Ling, who was lying on the bed, turned pale, and looked like he was about to die.
Guo Yi's eyes and ears were open, and around this hall, a huge intelligence network appeared in front of him, palace maids, eunuchs, imperial doctors, and waiters were all secretly contacting their backers to inform them that there was a change in the palace and that they should take action quickly.
Emperor Han Ling glanced up at Guo Yi and asked dyingly, "Aiqing, came alone?" β
saw that his finger was pointing at Liu Xie, and his weak eyes were floating. Guo Yi understood in his heart, this is to ask him to bring troops to protect Liu Xie's position. Guo Yi was secretly annoyed that he had actually sent Rose out twenty minutes ago. Otherwise, you can go and move the rescuers now.
Now the situation is beyond him, He Jin is already on the way to come, and Jian Shuo has already gathered nearby with his soldiers. A bloody coup d'Γ©tat is about to take place around the two princes!
The two most powerful women in the room obviously understood this, and both protected their children by their side, and their subordinates also stood on the left and right to form a defensive posture. Both sides know that this is the moment when everything will be done.
Guo Yilang said: "Although there is only one minister, but for the sake of the emperor, although there are tens of millions of people, I will go." β
Emperor Han Ling moved his fingers, Zhang Rang nodded, and handed a sword to Guo Yi.
Empress Dowager Dong and Empress He's faces changed, and Guo Yi couldn't help frowning, is this sword very special?
Zhang Ranglang said: "This snake sword is the sword of Emperor Gaozu, and today's matter, Taifu should make his own decisions." β
"Commandment." Guo Yi was just about to kowtow, when he heard He Jin's footsteps outside the West Garden, accompanied by Yuan Jia, Lu Zhi, Cao Cao, Liu Biao and others, and nearly a thousand Royal Forest Army.
"Stop!" With a big move, the captain of the West Garden immediately surrounded him and blocked the door.
"Presumptuous!" He Jin shouted violently: "I was ordered by the queen to enter the palace to guard, who dares to stop me?" β
Guo Yi looked down at the snake slashing sword in his hand, and was hesitating how to decide. Is it true that you can fight your way out on your own? No, I'm not a Zhou Gong! I want to be a high ancestor!
"Master Taifu!" Zhang Rang and the others all knelt down with a plop, their fate was hanging by a thread at the moment, once Liu Wei took the throne, then this hall would be the place where their heads were different! He Jin had already arrived with his soldiers, and killing them was just a matter of convenience, and they had no room for maneuver.
"Everyone!" Guo Yi pulled out the snake sword, strode to the door, and said loudly: "Whoever dares to step half a step over this sword today will be killed!" β
After all, sticking the snake sword into the threshold is like an impassable barrier.
He Jin said loudly: "What does Lord Taifu want?!" β
Guo Yi didn't answer, turned his head back to the hall, and said coldly: "The prince of debate and the prince of Xie's stay to listen to the order, and the rest of the people will all retreat!" β
Zhang Rang immediately shouted: "Taifu ......"
"Smack!" Guo Yi crushed the jade pendant in his hand, and rushed to the bed with an arrow step, protecting Emperor Han Ling behind him. Slowly sprinkled the broken jade pendant, and asked, "Father-in-law would rather be broken jade?" β
"No." The situation is unforgiving, Zhang Rang and the others are too late to resist, they never expected Guo Yi to come to this move, when they reacted, Emperor Han Ling was already under Guo Yi's control. They had all seen Guo Yi's martial arts, and with just a few of them, it would be impossible to snatch Emperor Han Ling back.
The Ten Servants withdrew. Guo Yi looked at the Empress Dowager Dong and Empress He, who were still immovable, knelt on the ground and saluted: "Empress Dowager, Empress, please stay away for the time being." β
Empress Dowager Dong blushed and asked, "What does Taifu want?" β
Guo Yi didn't speak, and Queen He smiled, as if she had a chance to win, and said coquettishly: "The emperor said that it will be decided by the Taifu." Isn't the Queen Mother going to resist the decree? β
After speaking, he said to Guo Yi respectfully: "It's all up to Master Taifu." Then Shi Shiran withdrew.
Empress Dowager Dong asked again, "What does Taifu want?" β
Guo Yi only said: "Queen Mother, the situation is not up to anyone. β
"Humph!" Empress Dowager Dong snorted coldly and got up to leave.
Guo Yi breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Wei was already crying, he was timid. Liu Xie was calm and calm, waiting to see what happened. Guo Yi crushed a low-grade dragon bone pill and carefully controlled the dose to ensure that it could only cure the disease and not prolong life.
When he came to the bedside of Emperor Han Ling, he found that he was unconscious, with more breath and less air intake. Hurriedly mixed the broken dragon bone pill into the potion, gave it to Emperor Han Ling to drink, and whispered: "Your Majesty, such a major matter needs to be decided by you personally. β
