Chapter 478: Inexplicable Bad News

"What the hell is going on? How could Cao Cao be assassinated? Zhang Lang asked.

Dong Ying said: "According to the news that came, it was Liu Bei Guan Yu who assassinated Cao Cao when he summoned them. Zhang Lang was very surprised: "Liu Bei?!" After a pause, "That's not right!" Liu Bei, he is tired of life, will he assassinate Cao Cao? Dong Ying said: "It is said that it was discovered by Cao Cao because Liu Bei colluded with the Xianbei people, and Liu Bei killed Cao Cao in a panic!" Zhang Lang said angrily: "This is even more unreliable!" Who is Cao Cao? If he wanted to expose Liu Bei's collusion with foreign races in person, would he be fully prepared? ”

Dong Ying thought of this question at this time, "That's right! Something seems wrong! ”

Zhang Lang thought for a while and said to Dong Ying: "Call Wenhe, Yueying, and Cai Yan to the back hall." Dong Ying promised and ran down. At present, the main Wenchen strategists in Luoyang are Jia Xu, Huang Yueying and Cai Yan, and the other major Wenchen strategists were all sent by Zhang Lang to preside over internal affairs. Chen Gong is still in charge of the annexation of the state, Zhuge Liang is in charge of Jingzhou, Fa Zheng is in charge of Xichuan, and Cai Yong is in charge of Xiliang and Guanzhong.

Not long after, in the back hall, Jia Xu, Huang Yueying, and Cai Yan met Zhang Lang.

Zhang Lang asked the three of them to sit, and the three thanked them and sat down separately. Jia Xu sat on the left, Huang Yueying sat on the right, and the second eye sat under Huang Yueying.

Jia Xu clenched his fists and asked, "The lord summoned his subordinates and others at night, but what emergency happened?" ”

Zhang Lang sighed, "The world is unpredictable, and the will of heaven is unpredictable!" Glancing at the three of them, "I just got the news from Xuchang that Cao Cao was assassinated by Liu Bei." ”

The three of them were taken aback, and Huang Yueying said in disbelief: "This is so strange! How did Liu Bei go back to assassinate Cao Cao? And how could Liu Bei kill Cao Cao? ”

Jia Xu said: "What Miss Huang said is extremely true! Lord, is this news reliable? ”

Zhang Lang glanced at Dong Ying beside him, and Dong Ying said: "This is the news from our envoys who stayed in Xuchang, it is absolutely reliable!" ”

Jia Xu pondered: "Could this be Cao Cao's conspiracy?" ”

Zhang Lang asked, "Wen He suspects that this is Cao Cao's trick?" ”

Jia Xu said: "It's not impossible! Looking at Zhang Lang, he hugged his fists and said: "The lord must also know Cao Cao's personality!" This man is so deceitful that I can't be sure that this is not a trick he has used against us. Zhang Lang said: "Everything is done for a purpose. If Cao Cao uses a trick of deception on us, what is his purpose? ”

Jia Xu said: "The first one may be to trick the lord into going to mourn and take the opportunity to get rid of the lord." The second possibility is that they want us to be defenseless against them, so that they can take advantage of the opportunity to raid us. ”

Cai Yan said: "The first possibility is only afraid that there is no zài, right?" How could the eldest brother go to someone else's place lightly? ”

Huang Yueying said: "That's not true. If Cao Cao died, it was very reasonable for the successor to invite the eldest brother to Xuchang in the name of continuing to negotiate with the eldest brother for institutional reform. First, the other party showed sincerity, and second, because the other party was filial piety, it was really not appropriate to leave Xuchang, so the eldest brother could only go to Xuchang. Cai Yan frowned and nodded, "But this may be a trap!" ”

Yang Kun rushed in, knelt down on one knee and said, "General Qiyu, Cao Pi's envoy is here." ”

Several people glanced at each other, and Jia Xu said with some surprise: "It's so fast!" ”

Zhang Lang said, "Please let him in." Yang Kun promised, ran down, and after a while, he led a messenger in an official robe and wearing Wusha to come in.

When the envoy saw Zhang Lang, he immediately bowed: "Meet the general of the Han Dynasty in the documents of the Prime Minister's Mansion!" ”

"No need to be polite. Why did you come here? ”

The envoy took out a letter from his sleeve and raised his hands and said: "My lord has been murdered, and the eldest prince is worried that the matter between the first lord and the general will be interrupted, so I specially invite the lord to go to Xuchang to continue to discuss the matter of system reform. The eldest prince said: No matter what, we can't let my father's wish fail, and I must continue my father's wish! ”

Dong Ying pressed her sword and walked to the messenger, took the letter, turned around and presented it to Zhang Lang, and then returned to Zhang Lang to stand. Zhang Lang opened the letter and read it carefully, and the content of what he said was basically the same as the urgent letter he had searched not long ago, except for some diplomatic polite words.

Zhang Lang put down the letter and said to the messenger: "This matter is too sudden! I was completely unprepared! There are a lot of things I need to deal with! You go back and tell the eldest prince, and I will send an important minister to mourn and consult with the eldest prince on the follow-up matters of the system reform! ”

The messenger said: "This matter is very important, if the general does not go, I am afraid, I am afraid that it will not be good!" ”

Huang Yueying said: "It's really sudden, and many things are inseparable from the general!" We all know the envoy's worries, and the general will definitely send an important minister who can represent him with full powers to Xuchang to offer condolences! ”

When the envoy saw Huang Yueying say this, he couldn't say anything more, and clasped his fists at Zhang Lang and said, "In this case, the lower official will leave." Zhang Lang said to Yang Kun: "Send your envoy for me." Yang Kun promised and led the messenger away.

After the envoy left, Huang Yueying sneered: "They really want to use this incident to plot against Big Brother!" ”

Cai Yan frowned and said, "Could it be that Cao Cao really cheated death?" ”

Jia Xu said: "Not necessarily! But regardless of whether Cao Cao is really dead or not, the other party will take advantage of this opportunity. ”

Huang Yueying hugged her fists at Zhang Lang and said, "I'll take a trip for my eldest brother." ”

Zhang Lang objected without thinking about it: "No! If those bastards had done it, wouldn't I have lost my wife and broken my soldiers! Several people looked at Zhang Lang with strange expressions, but Huang Yueying's delicate face was flushed, and her beautiful eyes were rippling with watery tenderness. Huang Yueying said softly: "Big brother don't worry, as long as the big brother doesn't go, they will never move!" Jia Xu said with a smile: "The subordinates know the worries of the lord, and the subordinates can guarantee it with a head, and Miss Huang has absolutely no problem with this trip." If the other party can't plot against the lord, he will never tear his face with us at this time, which is very unfavorable to them! ”

Zhang Lang hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Early the next morning, Huang Yueying left Luoyang under the protection of the Tiger Ben Guards. Zhang Lang stood on the tower of the city gate and looked at the team that was gradually moving away, and his heart was full of joy. Jia Xu saw Zhang Lang's worries, and said with a smile: "My lord, please be relieved, Miss Huang will never be fine!" Zhang Lang nodded.

Jia Xu hugged his fists and said, "Lord, we should make some preparations. Zhang Lang nodded and sighed: "I see that the ideal is about to be realized!" But suddenly there was such a change! Sometimes you can't believe in the will of heaven! ”
