Chapter 218: Qin Feng's Broken Arm
After listening to the emperor's words, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all fell into silence, almost everyone didn't know what the emperor was doing today, and Qin Feng also stood stupidly in place, turning his head to look at Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue didn't give a glance, but she was anxious in her heart.
Standing beside the emperor, Bai Ying, the middle attendant, looked at Liu Bei, then at Zhao Yue, and asked in a long tone: "General, don't you order the second general to remove all the torture tools on Qin Feng's body, is it possible to wait for Your Majesty to do it himself?" And Lord Qin, if there is nothing else, you can lead this person down first, so that you can discipline him, and after the execution, you will come to the palace to find Your Majesty, Your Majesty has something to say to you. ”
Zhang Fei gritted his teeth, dissatisfied with the emperor's verdict in his heart, but when he thought that the sinner in front of him would pay the price of an arm, the anger in his heart was temporarily suppressed, he waved his hand, and the guards of the Imperial Forest Army stepped forward and removed the shackles from his feet and hands for Qin Feng.
Seeing this, the emperor nodded with satisfaction and said: "The matter of cutting off this person's arm will be handed over to the two generals, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu. Also, the two generals, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, after being executed before the palace gate, must send their arms to my dormitory, and I will personally visit them. ”
Seeing this, the hundred officials could only bow their bodies and began to retreat.
Qin Feng's face was full of sadness, biting his lip tightly, his heart was even more desolate, to tell the truth, since the day he followed Zhao Yue, he regarded himself as a martial artist in troubled times, in this case, for Zhao Yue to die on the battlefield and the horse leather shroud, this is what he has fantasized about countless times.
At first, he felt a little hesitant, a little melancholy, and a little scared, but the more he got to the end, the more he felt that this was an honor, if that was the case, after he saw his parents in the underworld, he could proudly tell them that he Qin Feng was guarding the dignity of a general, so he came here.
But today, the emperor pardoned him for his capital crime and wanted to cut off one of his arms!
This is even more uncomfortable than killing him, and when he thinks of the days that followed, Jean can only live on one arm, and he can't enter Luoyang, where Zhao Yue is, his heart is desolate for a while.
When he was standing in the main hall stunned, he even suddenly saw Liu Xie, who got up from the dragon chair, showing a cold and sinister smile at the moment when he was helped out of the back door of the main hall by the palace maid.
Zhao Yue didn't say a word the whole time, there was a crowd of people around, and the ministers had already left, Jia Xu stood beside him and asked in a low voice: "Lord, where am I going at this time?" Do you stay in front of the palace for a while, wait for Qin Feng to be tortured, take him back to his house, and then arrange for someone to send him out of the city and settle down in Hanoi or Hongnong? ”
Zhao Yue still didn't speak, lowered his head, a gloomy atmosphere emanated from him, and none of the ministers in the past could see his expression clearly, so he turned around like this, and walked out of the hall with calm and unhurried steps as usual.
Seeing this, Jia Xu glanced at Qin Feng again, sighed in his heart, and hurriedly went to chase Zhao Yue.
Seeing that the emperor had left the hall, he did not hurry down from the high platform, and when he saw that Liu Bei was about to walk out of the hall, he hurriedly shouted: "General, don't go." ”
When Liu Bei heard this, he turned around and clasped his fists with both hands and said, "What else is the matter with Baigong?" ”
Zhongchang replied with a smile: "General, pass on the emperor's dictation, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, announce that you will go to His Majesty's dormitory to make a decree, as long as you go alone, there must be no mistake." ”
Liu Bei thought about it, continued to hold his fists, and said respectfully: "Yes, Liu Bei will order, and I will go." ”
Although Hongnong and Luoyang are separated by two counties, if there is really an emergency, ride a fast horse that travels thousands of miles a day to take the official road, and travel overnight, you can actually get there in one day and one night.
It is said that the Meng idiot heard the news from the little boy Meng Shi in Hongnong, saying that Zhao Yue had already moved the idea of assassinating the king and killing the driver, and he was anxious for fear of delay, so he hurriedly ordered Zhang Liao to guard the city and Xu Huang to Hongnong.
At this time, he and Xu Huang continued to bump on the horse for a day and a night, without a drop of water or a grain of rice.
When I came to the city of Luoyang, I happened to hear that the people who went out of the city were discussing the death of the prime minister last night and the affairs of Zhao Yue's court today.
Xu Huang said with jerky concern on the side: "Strategist, I see that you are a little tired, it is better to rest here for a while, let the last general go to the city first, and go to find out!" ”
It is said that since he joined Zhao Yue's command, he has not made an inch, and he has injured Zhao Yue in Hucheng before, so he is eager to show himself at this time, so that Zhao Yueqing can look at him with blue eyes, and finally promote him to his official position.
However, in the eyes of the idiot, he is not at ease with the person around him, in other words, the matter in front of him is related to the rise and fall of Great Qin, if he is not careful, the whole army is afraid of accidents, he must go in person, even if he is tired and dies on the way, he must not give up easily!
"No, let's go, let's go into the city!" The idiot said a word, pulled the reins, and the prancing horse entered the city gate.
It was early afternoon, and the sun was still hanging directly above, but it had already set in the west.
Zhao Yue returned to Chang'a Palace, Jia Xu ordered the guards to guard the palace gate of Chang'a Palace, and he followed Zhao Yue's steps closely and rushed all the way into Chang'a Palace.
"Lord......" Jia Xu just shouted, then closed the door quite aware of the current affairs, slowed down, and walked to the hall to stand still.
Zhao Yue sat on the seat, leaning forward, one arm lying across the table in front of him, and the other hanging down beside him, her hair was on the side of her face, like a chicken in soup, and her eyes were full of sadness......
"Pass my order, remove the alert in the army, and ...... Let people prepare a sedan chair, take all the doctors, and go to the palace to pick up Qin Feng, there must be no mistakes......"
When Jia Xu heard Zhao Yue's voice that seemed to cry but not like crying, he was really worried, and hurriedly walked to the door to convey King Qin's order to the soldiers guarding the door outside.
After that, Jia Xu, who returned to the hall and stood still, couldn't help but raise his head and quietly glanced at Zhao Yue on the throne, and whispered tentatively: "Lord, do you think that this time, we didn't lose in the hands of Liu Bei?" ”
Zhao Yue's heart was very complicated, she raised her right hand with all her strength, waved her hand weakly, and made a sad and choked sound from her throat: "I'm not in the mood to talk about this now, when the idiot arrives, let him not bother me, just explain all the situation to him, and tell the truth, other trivial matters will be left to him for the time being." ”
Jia Xu exclaimed: "Lord, you want to ......" (to be continued.) )
