The sudden beheading of Zhu Han, the capital official, not only caused the shock of the civil and military forces in the hall, but even Yuan Shao's face changed slightly, and he immediately ordered to investigate the matter, and the murderer was immediately beheaded.

The soldier did not immediately walk away, but instead said, "There is ......."

"What else!"

Yuan Shao suddenly shouted, scaring the soldier to the ground, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, and his body trembled for a long time before he said, "There is still ...... General Han Qi also died in the chaos. ”

Han Qi is Han Fu's eldest son, after Yuan Shao won Jizhou, in order to prevaricate Youyou's mouth, he deliberately sealed Han Qi a nominal Fenwei general, and moved him to the mansion of the former eunuch Zhao Zhong to be closely monitored. Think about Han Qi since his father's death, he has always been cautious and never goes out easily, how could he suddenly be killed at home?

Although Han Qi has no weight, for Yuan Shao, he can also be used as a pawn to envelop Han Fu's old department. As long as Han Qi lives well, the opposing voices of the old Jizhou department can also be better. Now that Han Qi suddenly died in vain, he was afraid that he didn't know what kind of turmoil he was going to make.

When Tang Shangwu heard this, he exploded and talked about it.

Even Yuan Shao suddenly stood up, and his face changed greatly.

When Chen Nuo heard about Zhu Han's death, for some reason, he suddenly thought of Zhao Xue, and immediately pinched a cold sweat in his palm. I hope in my heart that Zhao Xue will not do stupid things. At this time, I heard that Han Qi also died in the chaos, and my heart was also a mess.

But after thinking about it, I was a little relieved.

I think that when he met Zhu Han before, he saw that Zhu Han swaggering through the market, saying what case he wanted to handle; Although Zhu Han didn't say it at that time, now that he is connected, I'm afraid that what he did is not related to Han Qi's matter, right?

Killing Han Qi may have been done by Zhu Han.

The reason why Chen Nuo thinks this way is not unfounded.

The reason why Zhu Han was dismissed from Jizhou was because he had a conflict with Han Fu. Now that he has invested in Yuan Shao's mansion and has been reused by Yuan Shao, he can just use his position to do his own private affairs; forced Han Qi to kill and put the account owed by his son to Han Qi's head.

Of course, after all, Zhu Han was just a small capital official, and if he lent him ten more guts, he would not be able to kill Han Qi rashly, if there was no nod from Yuan Shao, it would never be able to do what he said.

And killing Han Qi was not only not as bad for Yuan Shao as it was on the surface, but it was more conducive to Yuan Shao's actions after the war.

I think that after Yuan Shao got Jizhou, although he gave Han Qi a good placement on the surface, Han Qi was Han Fu's eldest son, and he would always be unable to feel at ease. After all, although this Han Fu is dead, it is difficult to say that there are no old Jizhou ministers who are ready to move have illusions about their son Han Qi; Han Qi is in Yecheng again, once something happens, they will resurrect, thus endangering Yuan Shao's safety, which Yuan Shao does not want to see.

Therefore, Yuan Shao's reason for killing Han Qi is even more sufficient. What's more, he is a fake person, and if he wants to clean up in the future, he will only launch a Zhu Han, but he has gained a good reputation.

Therefore, whether it was from Zhu Han or Yuan Shao, these two people hoped that Han Qi would die.

Chen Nuo thought about these things clearly, and then looked at Yuan Shao, and saw that although he was angry about Han Qi's death, no matter how he looked at it, it was a bit of a fraud. turned to look at Feng Ji again, but when everyone was shouting, he was still brushing his scorched beard under his chin, looking careless.

Chen Nuo looked at Feng Ji like this, but Feng Ji reacted quickly, and immediately shot a pair of blazing eyes at Chen Nuo and smiled mysteriously at Chen Nuo.

From his smile, Chen Nuo already knew the answer.

Yuan Shao had just stood up when there was a commotion outside the General's Mansion. Yuan Shao and the others didn't know what was going on, and they saw the soldiers guarding the gate report to Yuan Shao, saying that there was a bloody man outside, and he was about to break in with a head, and he said that he wanted to see General Yuan and speak in person.

Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded when they heard this, and they didn't know who they didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and dared to make trouble in the General's Mansion.

Yuan Shao's body was shocked at this moment, he pressed his sword, glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "General Ben wants to see who dares to be presumptuous in my mansion, go, order someone to let him go, and bring him to see General Ben!" ”

The soldiers went down, and after a while, the noise and footsteps suddenly came, and those curious civil and military officers were all waiting one by one, and even Chen Nuo couldn't help but raise his eyes. From time to time, more than a dozen soldiers surrounded the people and slowly retreated to the hall. With a coquettish cry, the soldiers dispersed, and a man appeared in front of everyone covered in blood.

Before the crowd of civilians and warriors could see the appearance of the person who came, they saw a bloody head thrown in front of the hall first, and rolled a long way before they stopped, startling everyone.

A pungent smell of blood rushed to everyone in the hall, and they all hurriedly covered their noses with their sleeves. The bolder ones narrowed a pair of thin eyes and looked carefully at the head in front of the hall, and couldn't help but gasp.

I saw that the eyes of the person who was cut off were wide open, and the facial features of his face were covered with blood. It's such a small head, and it's also wrapped in fluffy hair, if you don't identify it carefully, you really don't know that it's Zhu Han's head.

Someone recognized it, and there were many exclamations.

Yuan Shao, who was on the main general's table, had sharp eyes, saw it at a glance, and immediately broke off and pointed at the person who came: "Bold thief, you dare to be so presumptuous when you kill the court officials." Come on, take it for me! ”

Seeing that all the soldiers in the hall were about to rush up, the guy covered in blood had no fear, and immediately broke off and shouted, "Slow! Since I'm here, I won't bother you to do it. I came to explain to General Yuan that I had nothing to do with others in killing this fang. Today I die to die! ”

As he spoke, the man raised his sword and killed himself by slitting his throat.

Others may not recognize this person, but Chen Nuoke recognized it at a glance.

It's still coming when it's supposed to come, and you can't hide from it!

Zhao Xue changed into this ordinary outfit and came to Yuan Shao to receive her death, did she think that with her few words, Yuan Shao would let her go so easily?

This silly girl!

If it weren't for Zhao Xue's desire for revenge, it wouldn't be easy to take revenge?

Since Han Qi died at the hands of Zhu Han, Yuan Shao will kill Zhu Han to thank the world in order to give an explanation to the world, so she doesn't have to take revenge for this revenge. But now that Zhu Han is also dead, this matter will be much more troublesome, with Yuan Shao's personality, not only will Zhu Han be innocent, but even Han Qi's death will be counted on her head. She's so reckless!

But since Zhao Xue is in trouble, it is too late to blame, so I can only do my best to save her.

Chen Nuo immediately stood up and swung his sword away from Zhao Xue's hand. His sudden move not only surprised everyone in the hall, but even Yuan Shao's face changed.

Zhao Xue frowned, wanting to pretend that she didn't know Chen Nuo, but she was pulled by Chen Nuo and knelt in front of Yuan Shao together, making her unable to speak.

Chen Nuo immediately said to Yuan Shao: "I think Yuan Gong has misunderstood!" This person is none other than the general's subordinate. ”

Zhao Xue came to her death to clear up the relationship between her and Chen Nuo, and now that Chen Nuo was so 'clarified', Zhao Xue naturally did not agree, but Chen Nuo didn't give her a chance to explain, let alone Yuan Shao and the others.

As soon as Chen Nuo's words came out, he immediately continued: "Lord Zhu's death, I think there may be another hidden secret. The matter has come to this point, and it is not hidden that Yuan Gong and the generals know that when the last general entered the city, in fact, the last general had met Lord Zhu halfway.

At that time, I saw Master Zhu and his subordinates hurrying to General Han Qi's mansion, and I didn't know what was going on for a while, but seeing their menacing appearance, I was afraid that something would not be good, so I immediately sent General Zhao to follow and act cheaply. ”

Yuan Shao snorted lightly and said, "If you are not in your position, you don't want to be in your politics, don't you understand General Chen's words?" As a capital official, Lord Zhu has the right to supervise and arrest illegal officials in Ye, this is the scope of his duties, even if you are uneven, but you can't help but be too lenient, right? ”

Chen Nuo shook his head and said: "Although Yuan Gong's words are so, things can be done, not written articles, and they must not be passed easily. I think that General Han Qi is the eldest son of Xianzhou Mu Han Fu, and he is relied on by Yuan Gong, and has a decisive influence on my Jizhou, so there can be no mistakes. Now that I see General Han Qi in danger, how can I see death and not save me? Oh, by the way, I think Lord Zhu suddenly came to General Han Qi's mansion, wasn't it an order from you, Duke Yuan? ”

Chen Nuo countered Yuan Shao's army, and even if Yuan Shao had this order, he couldn't admit it.

Good Chen Nuo, Yuan Shao smiled and said, "Even if General Han Qi makes a big mistake, he can't act hastily. What's more, General Ben treats General Han Qi as well, and thinks he has no other ideas, so how could General Ben give any orders for no reason? ”

Chen Nuo nodded hurriedly: "I'll just say, I think Yuan Gongxiang puts his reputation first, how can he easily kill General Han Qi?" It must be Lord Zhu acting without authorization. I had heard that Master Zhu had been an official in the hands of the former Hanzhou pastor, and finally had an unpleasant quarrel with the first Hanzhou pastor, so they walked separately. I think Lord Zhu is in charge today and takes matters into his own hands to round up General Han Qi's mansion, since it is not what you mean by Duke Yuan, it is that he pretends to seek personal gain by pretending to be on official business......"

Yuan Shao felt that something was wrong when he heard this, and quickly interrupted Chen Nuo: "Slow! What we are pursuing now is the assassination of Lord Zhu by your subordinates, and you have taken the matter away. ”

As soon as Chen Nuo heard Yuan Shao say, he nodded: "Yuan Gong, listen to me, it is precisely because of the above worries that the last general is afraid that Lord Zhu will use the public for personal gain, which will be unfavorable to General Han Qi, so he sent General Zhao to protect Han Qi." As for the death of General Han Qi and why Lord Zhu Han was suddenly killed, it is indeed difficult to know the inside story of the last general's body in the general's mansion. Therefore, these things have to be explained to the party concerned, Zhao Xiaojiang, slowly to Yuan Gong and the adults and generals. ”

Chen Nuo said, and immediately drank: "Zhao Xue, don't hurry up and tell the whole story!" ”

Zhao Xue had a certain heart of death, and she didn't want to explain more; But as soon as she looked up, she suddenly saw Chen Nuo winking at her, thinking of what Chen Nuo said before and after, she was ignorant and understood. Zhao Xue was not stupid, and she immediately understood when Chen Nuo stopped drinking.

She immediately sorted out Chen Nuo's words back and forth, and she understood the key to the front and back, and seemed to see a glimmer of hope. It's just that once she admits that she is Chen Nuo's subordinate, if something goes wrong, then Chen Nuo will also be implicated in this matter, which she doesn't want to see. But if you don't admit it, then it is clear that what Chen Nuo said before is lying in court, then for Chen Nuo, he may be severely punished.

Since there is no way forward and no way back, for the sake of her and Chen Nuo, she can only fight.

Zhao Xue raised her head, and she really let it go, facing the forced gaze of Yuan Shao and others, her face still did not change, and she said: "Yes!" Previously, the young general was ordered by General Chen, and followed Lord Zhu all the way to General Han Qi's mansion. It's just that General Zhu's movement was too big, and he surrounded the front and back of General Han Qi's mansion.

I think that General Han Qi may also know that Lord Zhu had a holiday with his father, and he was afraid that Lord Zhu would declare a personal vendetta, so he closed his door. Who knew that Lord Zhu still didn't let go, and actually sent troops to climb over the wall into the room, climb the attic, and arrest General Han Qi in a daze. The young general watched from the sidelines and didn't dare to show up for a while, but seeing Master Zhu raise the big knife in his hand, he was stunned and knocked off General Han Qi's legs and knees with the handle of the knife......"

These scenes were indeed seen by Zhao Xue with her own eyes, and now that she thinks about it, Han Qi's screams of pain are still endless, and even when she narrates it at this moment, she doesn't feel that her eyebrows are slightly frowned, and she can't bear it; Not to mention that when the civil and military in the hall heard it, they were all embarrassed.

"I saw that General Han Qi was about to die from this ordeal, and I couldn't help it for a while, so I stepped forward and wanted to save General Han Qi. It's just that I didn't expect that Zhu Hanna was mad and tortured General Han Qi not enough, so he actually killed General Han Qi with a single knife at that time......

At that time, I was anxious to rescue General Han Qi, and I rushed to kill desperately...... Lord Zhu died on the spot at the hands of the young general...... The young general was afraid that General Chen would be affected by this incident, so he disguised himself and took the head of Master Zhu and came to receive the death ......."

Zhao Xue's words were actually not adulterated, but she changed her position under Chen Nuo's reminder, so that the artistic conception changed greatly.

Although she promised Chen Nuo at that time that she would not do anything to Zhu Han, when she thought of her brother's death, and since she knew the whereabouts of the enemy, how could she easily let him go? She didn't want to involve Chen Nuo in the matter of revenge, so she took advantage of Chen Nuo's entry into the mansion to discuss the matter, quietly slipped out, and inquired about Han Qi's mansion all the way.

She had been snooping in the shadows, ready to wait for an opportunity to take revenge. But after all, she considered Chen Nuo's words when she calmed down, and for a while she felt that she was too reckless, so she was still hesitant at that time. But when she saw Zhu Han torturing Han Qi, she really aroused her desire to kill Zhu Han, so she didn't care about anything else and rushed to solve Zhu Han.

So when it comes to the matter, there are both her selfishness and axioms, it depends on how this matter is explained from Zhao Xue's mouth and from what position. And Chen Nuo deliberately reminded Zhao Xue because of this, asking him to change his position and not mention revenge; Then this incident sounded like it was to stop Zhu Han from continuing to commit murder, so he made a helpless move and killed the thief; Not only is it innocent, but it is excusable.

Sure enough, this trick really worked, and those side-eyed officials had nothing to say, and even those old generals in Jizhou pointed to Zhu Han's head on the ground and scolded, saying that he deserved to die, and praised Zhao Xuelai.

Everyone was blocked, and only Yuan Shao was still sitting on the desk silently, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Of course, Yuan Shao understood the truth of accepting it when he saw it, since everyone pointed the finger at Zhu Han, he also pushed the boat down the river, waved his hand, and said: "Zhu Han, this person will be revenged, but he is a repeated thief, and it is not a pity to die!" He had a slight mistake with the former Han Zhoumu, so he transferred the conflict to his son Han Qi; Then, without permission, he took advantage of his position to deliberately cover the charges of General Han Qi, and besieged General Han Qi's mansion privately for public gain, causing General Han Qi to die. He buried Han Qi thickly, worshiped and mourned the general, and raised the orphans! Zhu Han is dead and will not be pursued. ”

Now that there is an explanation for Han Qi's death, those old officials in Jizhou have nothing to say, but they have cheapened Zhu Han's kid. However, Yuan Shao said that he would not pursue it, and they had nothing else to say, so they took orders one after another.

"But ......"

Yuan Shao's voice changed, and he stared directly at Chen Nuo and the others: "Although General Zhao protects Han Qi in name, he kills the important minister Zhu Han privately, which is unforgivable. Although General Chen can be exempted from the crime of negligence, General Zhao must pay for it with his life in order to prevent those who later follow this matter from using the public for personal gain! ”

Everyone didn't think there was anything wrong, but Chen Nuo stood frozen on the spot. Yuan Shao personally spoke to kill a young general, even if it was him, he had no right to ask. What's more, Yuan Shao had already pardoned him in person, which was regarded as putting an end to Chen Nuo's mouth first, so that Chen Nuo would have nothing to say.

But Chen Nuo knew that Zhao Xue must not die, and he would never agree!

Zhao Xue's face turned pale, she was not sad about her death, all she thought about was that she could no longer follow Chen Nuo, and she couldn't help but feel sad. But thinking that if she didn't thank Yuan Shao for her death, she was afraid that Chen Nuo would intercede for her and implicate him again, so she hurriedly bowed and said: "Lord Zhu's death is indeed done by General Zhao." Zhao Xiaojiang has nothing to say, he is willing to die! ”

Chen Nuo's expression changed, and he was about to speak again, but was stopped by the noise outside the hall. Looking outside the hall again, I saw two or three soldiers breaking in one after another, and they were either shouting or shouting in the distance, plus the sound of their footsteps when they walked, and the sound of swords clashing, and it was a commotion. In this way, there is no discipline at all, and a soldier has long lost the discipline that a soldier should have, and the serious general's mansion has become like a vegetable market in an instant.

Yuan Shao boasted that he was born in the fourth world and the third duke, and he paid the most attention to these appearances and etiquette, how could he lose such a face today? In addition, the previous incident did not ease up, so he was annoyed, and he was afraid of the wooden case, and shouted: "Are you going to do the opposite!" ”

"It's the other way around!"

The two soldiers who ran at the front hurriedly followed Yuan Shao's words: "General, Black Mountain Yu Poison and Right Virtuous King Yu Fuluo have rebelled!" They also kidnapped the eldest prince. ”
