"For what?" Guo Li was about to go crazy, he pulled Guo Xiu's sleeve and blushed urgently. This was not an arrangement in the plan, at least he didn't know there was such a plan. And he is the mastermind, Guo Xiu is just his deputy.

Guo Xiu gently pushed Guo Li away: "Uncle, don't be surprised. There are not many people who know this matter. There are only three people, including me, and you are the fourth. ”

"For what?" Guo Li tugged at Guo Xiu's sleeve again, his eyes were red. He felt that Guo Xiu was too crazy. Not to mention whether you can kill Wei Ba, even if you can kill him, it will not necessarily be a good thing for Wei. Wei Ba died at the hands of the Wei people, and it was an assassination, can Wei Feng and Wei Wu brothers avenge Wei Ba? Not to mention anything else, the Xiping Guo family will definitely be exterminated.

Guo Xiu looked at Guo Li with pity: "Uncle, between Jiang Wei and Wei Ba, who do you choose?" ”

"Of course, choose Wei Ba." Guo Li's eyes widened, and he said without thinking: "Although Jiang Wei is a township party, how can he compare with Wei Ba? The general trend of the world has been achieved, and it will be one, and the Great Wei will be breathless, and there will be few days left. Although Jiang Wei is talented, his strength is too weak compared to Wei Ba. This world must be Wei Ba's ......"

"Then he'll live." Guo Xiu interrupted Guo Li's words, and sighed helplessly: "I also know that Wei Ba is stronger than Jiang Wei. But uncle, you have to think clearly, it is precisely because Wei Ba is strong enough that there is no difference between us and us. But Jiang Wei is different, if I can assassinate Wei Ba, Jiang Wei will have the possibility of turning over, and our Guo family is the biggest hero. You can't see the priorities in this, right? ”

Guo Li was stunned. He looked at Guo Xiu and felt that there was a stranger in front of him. He knew that Guo Xiu was right, not to mention that the Guo family and Jiang Wei were both from Liangzhou, and in terms of the comparison of the strength of Wei Ba and Jiang Wei, the role of the Guo family was not the same. Without the Guo family, Wei Ba is as powerful. Jiang Wei is different, if there is no accident, Wei Ba's strength is enough to defeat him easily, and there is almost no room for escape. If Guo Xiu can assassinate Wei Ba at this time, it will undoubtedly bring Jiang Wei a chance to come back to life. He will naturally regard the Guo family as a hero who turned things around.

Such a tactic that works in the opposite direction. There is a Liangzhou senior who used it. That is Jia Xu of the official to the captain.

"But, can you kill Wei Ba?" Guo Li stammered: "Even a master like Yang Xiong doesn't have much chance. ”

"Yang Xiong didn't have a chance because Wei Ba was prepared. Zhuge Liang wanted to put him to death several times, and he had long distrusted Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei. And I am different. Wei wanted to facilitate negotiations. There is a request for him. No matter how much he doubts, he will not doubt me. Not to mention that I had done so much for him before that. The heart of refuge is very clear, how can you destroy your future at this time? ”

Guo Xiu laughed: "Whether the assassination can succeed or not depends not on the assassin's skills, but on whether the assassin is defenseless. Be prepared, even if you are a master like Yang Xiong. If you are defenseless, even a weak woman may be killed with a knife. Uncle, you don't think I'm even inferior to Zhao E, right? ”

Hearing the name Zhao E, Guo Li had nothing to say. He knew that Guo Xiu's mind had been decided, and it was not decided today, he should have been planning for a long time. Perhaps, he came to Luoyang from his hometown because of this plan.

A plan that has been prepared for nearly a year, and a plan that until this moment, including him, only four people know about the road.

Even Yang Xiong didn't know what to do, he always thought he was Jing Ke, but he never wanted to be regarded as Fan Yuzhi. Guo Xiu was right, Wei Ba had already been wary of the people who came from Chang'an, and no matter how good Yang Xiong's skills were, he had no chance of success. Guo Xiu is different, after more than half a year of hard work, he has successfully won Wei Ba's trust, plus this whistleblowing, he will soon have the opportunity to be alone with Wei Ba.

As long as Wei Ba's guard is relaxed, Guo Xiu will have a chance to succeed in one blow.

Killing people sometimes doesn't require too high a level of martial arts.

As soon as Wei Ba died, there would be chaos within Shu Han, and Wei would get a good chance to breathe, even if he was defeated in the last place, the Guo family could also unite with Jiang Wei with this skill. And Yang Xiong's assassination failed, Zhuge Liang's reputation was ruined, and his nephew Zhuge Ke was inevitably implicated. In this case, Jiang Wei ascended to the throne, inherited Zhuge Liang's power, and it is very likely that he will control Guanzhong.

With Jiang Wei's ability, apart from Wei Ba, who has been stabbed to death, and Zhuge Ke, who was implicated by Zhuge Liang, who else is his opponent? With the Guo family's response, Jiang Wei will naturally become the first person in the Shu Han court, and the Guo family will also be richly rewarded.

The risks are great, but the rewards are greater.

Guo Li supported, he hesitated for a long time, and asked the last question: "What if you miss?" ”

"If I miss, you put all the blame on me." Guo Xiu said lightly: "Originally, this plan has nothing to do with you. ”

"Can Wei Ba believe it?"

"I really can't help it if I don't believe it." Guo Xiu shrugged: "It's not the first time that my Guo family has encountered such a disaster, it's just a matter of surviving." If the sky must destroy the Guo family, then what can I do? ”

Guo Li was silent. Guo Xiu is right. The Guo family should have nothing to fear. In the rebellion in the early years of the Huang Dynasty, the Guo family has been exterminated, if it were not for the Empress Dowager Guo who was lucky to be loved by Emperor Ming, the Guo family would now be a slave and a maid. The Guo family has today, all from the grace of Emperor Ming, even if it is to repay the favor of Emperor Ming, now they have to fight hard, not to mention that this can also bring hope for the rejuvenation of the Guo family.

Defeated, but more completely. wins, but you can turn over and restore the glory of the Guo family. Of course, we have to fight hard.

……

The Che Riding General's Mansion, the strong smell of blood has not yet dissipated, and countless craftsmen have begun to get busy. The corpse had been dragged away, and the soldiers were pouring buckets of water on the ground, and then scrubbing vigorously with brooms to clean up the blood on the ground. Dozens of masons were busy in an orderly manner, replacing the tiles on the ground that had been broken by the arrows, and rebuilding the toppled courtyard walls. They were very well prepared, their craftsmanship was also very exquisite, and the deployment of personnel was even more orderly, and the courtyard that had just experienced a fierce battle was renovated without moving for an hour.

In the backyard, Wei Ba sat in the middle, and Zhao Tong, Fei Yi, Yu Yan and others gathered around the table, quietly looking at Wei Ba.

They had just passed on the two edicts. One is to make Wei Ba the king and has already read it, and the other is to prepare to kill Wei Ba on the spot, and has not yet read it. At this moment, everyone who is qualified to attend the meeting has seen these two secret edicts with their own eyes, and their faces are a little ugly.

The imperial court prepared two edicts and arranged more than 100 dead soldiers, this is not to seal the king, this is to take the head of Wei Ba. As soon as Wei Ba died, how could they have a good end?

Zhao Tong and Fei Yi became the target of public criticism, especially Zhao Tong. Obviously, Zhuge Liang sent him to be the supervisor of the army, which was a foreshadowing, once Wei Ba was killed, Zhao Tong would be the supreme person in charge of Ming Zhengyan. At that time, he has the status of both the prison army and the senior brother of Wei Ba, and who else is more qualified to lead this army than him?

Even Buqi was a little restless. Obviously, he is also in Zhuge Liang's calculations. If things develop as Zhuge Liang planned, Wei Ba dies unexpectedly, and Zhao Tong takes over the military power, does he have any choice but to support Zhao Tong?

No.

Not only did Bu Qi not have it, neither did Fei Yi, nor did Sun Shao and other Wu generals, nor did Feng Jin, Fu Xing and other Shu Han families, they had no other choice than joining forces to kill Wang Shuang, Ding Feng and other Wei Ba's descendants, and then fighting a decisive battle with Xiahou Xuan and other Cao Wei forces.

Because apart from Wei Ba, the Wei family couldn't find a second person who could take on such a heavy responsibility. Even if the scope was expanded to all the strength that Wei Ba had, no one could replace Wei Ba and bring so many people together.

Once the forces are dispersed, they may become enemies, kill each other, and it will no longer be possible to unite and oppose the prime minister. On the contrary, they will rush to pay allegiance to the imperial court, and do not hesitate to send the heads of their comrades-in-arms. If they are one step late, they risk becoming someone else's prey.

Zhuge Liang's plan seems to be very absurd, but after thinking about it carefully, it is not absurd at all, on the contrary, it is thorough enough. He keenly grasped the weaknesses of the factions around Wei Ba and hit the key point.

A chill swept through everyone's heart, making everyone fearful.

They never imagined that danger was so close to them.

"Alright." Wei Ba waited for everyone to read the edict and put it away, then said lightly: "The edict, everyone has read it, I believe you can distinguish the truth from the false." The Son of Heaven and the Prime Minister have decided to put me to death, and although I don't quite understand it, I also know that the way is good and bad, and I can't complain about it. I'm just so sorry to have involved you all. At this point, I won't say more, which one has something to do, you can go first. ”

His words were very lighthearted, but at this moment, who would dare to go? Not to mention whether they can get out of this door, even if they get out of this door, where can they go? Since Wei Ba is not dead, he will naturally launch a counterattack against the imperial court, and the strength of the two sides is clear at a glance, who would be stupid enough to stand on the opposite side of Wei Ba and serve the imperial court.

The imperial court even wants to kill Wei Ba, who else can it tolerate? If you can't defeat Wei Ba, you will be killed by Wei Ba, and if you defeat Wei Ba, I am afraid that you will follow in the footsteps of Wei Ba and become a thorn in the side of the court again.

In this case, why should he serve the imperial court and go against Wei Ba?

There was silence in the hall, and no one stood up to leave.

Wei Ba looked around, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He stroked the two edicts on the case, very pleased. After waiting for so long, he finally waited for the time to break with the imperial court openly.

At all times, no matter how sharp or powerful your minions are, you have to dress yourself up as a victim. Pretending to be a victim is not only to win sympathy, but also to give those who are wavering a reason, a reason to have to work back, to pull more people to their side.

Han Gaozu is like this, and so is Emperor Guangwu.

Zhuge Liang gave him a big gift
