Chapter 654: Reaction

"Your Majesty is dead!"

From the emperor's bedroom, Empress He's mournful cry came, with a sense of sorrow and sincerity. It really makes people cry when they listen to it and sad when they hear it.

In an uproar, the palace maids and eunuchs outside, as well as the Yulin guards, all knelt down. This also includes Liu Xuan, but Liu Xuan is still half-kneeling, which is the minimum he can tolerate.

He lowered his head and saw the words floating on the stone slabs paved with the palace road, and he felt as if he was in a different world. This is a text that only he can see, and as a real player, when he has a status and power that is difficult for ordinary players to have, the restrictions are also very large.

For example, Liu Xuan, he can only stay in the palace, and the palace is equal to his home in the game. When you close your eyes, the last thing you see is the night of the palace, and when you open your eyes, the first thing you see is the sunshine of the palace.

The task that emerged, the security of the emperor in it has gradually faded, and just when Liu Xuan thought that this task was going to disappear completely, a group of tasks appeared again.

"Defend the new emperor."

Liu Xuan smiled bitterly, and sure enough, after the death of the old emperor, the new emperor ascended the throne. The emperor he protected was not any one person at all, but the emperor himself. In addition to the emperor, the most critical task is to guard the palace.

When will it end?

Liu Xuan didn't know that only after all his traces and people disappeared from this world would he completely get rid of the shackles on his body.

Then, in the game of Three Kingdoms, he will leave traces that belong to him. This is also what all real players have, and generally speaking, as long as the player does not do badly, he can leave a strong mark in the history of the game.

From the very beginning, when he saw Empress He coming here, outside the emperor's bedroom, Liu Xuan already knew the result. But he didn't care, and he couldn't.

The queen sees the emperor, the wife sees her husband, and it is normal for people to be unstoppable. Besides, Liu Xuan doesn't have much good impression of Liu Hong, even if the other party has great trust in him, it's the same.

People always have to die. Whether in the game or in reality, in the highly developed medical technology of the Empire, you can live for more than a hundred years, but you still can't escape death after all.

Liu Hong is the emperor, but he is already dying, and dying now is no different from dying later. What's more, his death was worth it, at least after his death, the new emperor could quickly ascend the throne and stabilize the situation.

This was originally what he and the princes of the Beacon Opera had always wanted to do, just like himself, knowing that this might extend the time for limiting himself, he also chose to do so.

The mandatory task of the system, Liu Xuan had to do it, and he had to pay something for it. In addition, he couldn't let go of these brothers of the Yulin Army, these soldiers who regarded him as their only faith and got along with him day and night.

For the generals, one will succeed in ten thousand bones. No matter how much sacrifice is made, the goal must be achieved, and no matter how many people die, as long as the final result is good, there is no need to ask these people if they are willing to die.

Liu Xuan is still soft-hearted. He is not a successful general, and he does not have to win thousands of miles away, he only needs to protect the palace, the soldiers who guard the palace, and the people who live in the palace.

As the news of the emperor's death was passed out layer by layer, everyone in the palace was already filial, and there was an extra touch of snow white on his body. The palace had just escaped from the atmosphere of slaughter, and immediately fell into a heavy one.

The palace also spread the news to the outside, and many courtiers, including the common people in the city, also got the news, and the city was under martial law.

"Your Majesty is dead?" Cao Cao put down the wine glass in his hand and asked the soldier who delivered the message.

"Yes, General. The news came from the palace that the people of the city were now already talking about it. The soldier replied with a fist clenched.

"Go down."

"Yes."

Cao Cao rubbed his head, tired for a while. I finally cleaned up the affairs of the West Garden Army, and when I returned home, I was about to take a rest, but I didn't want to hear such news.

"Why is Mengde distressed? You should be happy. Candle Shadow drank the wine in his hand, put down the wine glass, and then spoke.

"Oh? Happy? Cao Cao shook his head and smiled bitterly, he knew what Candle Shadow was talking about, but how could he be happy?

"How can I be happy? As soon as His Majesty died, the general was seriously injured, and it is not known how the injury was, and it is not known who presided over the DPRK and China. Thinking about it makes me happy. ”

"Especially, when His Majesty died, he was happy, but it was a big rebellion." He glanced meaningfully at the candle shadow.

Cao Cao's gaze, if he were replaced by a player who knew who he was but was unfamiliar with, he would suddenly have the urge to run away. Although there is no emotional outpouring, no murderous intent, no killing intent, but Cao Cao's name is enough to make people imagine everything in the worst direction.

Candle Shadow still has a relaxed face, and the great rebellion is nothing in his eyes, let alone his relationship with Cao Cao. Based on what he had said during the period of time by Cao Cao's side, there were countless times of great rebellion or something, enough for him to die countless times, and his body was chopped into minced meat.

But he didn't die, he still sat here well, which is enough to explain everything.

In fact, when he was younger and first entered Luoyang City, Candle Shadow knew that he would never be able to sit with Cao Cao so easily, and maybe the next moment the Qingyu Sword would poke a bloody hole out of his chest. At that time, Cao Cao was full of ambition and longing for the future, and it was by no means that Cao Cao, who has experienced a lot now, has so much patience.

Anyone, as long as he sees that it is not good for the imperial court and has some rebellious performance, Cao Cao will definitely not hesitate to start. This is one of the traditions left by scholars in the Western Han Dynasty, and it is also a way of scholars and doctors that gradually declined in the Eastern Han Dynasty and was completely distorted and disappeared later.

To put it more understandably, it is an idealistic person who is willing to carry out his ideals. When the king was wrong, they went and corrected the king's wrongdoing. When the courtiers were at fault, they also went to scare and pierced the black sheep. When there is trouble in the world, they will save it, and they are willing to give everything for it, including their lives.

Two stunned, these people are a group of second stunned people, Cao Cao was a second stunned person before, including now. Stunned, not afraid of anything.

You can't deny that they sometimes do wrong things, but even more can't deny that in the history of the empire, there have been countless dumbfounded. It is this group of stunned people, who have paid blood, lives, and everything, that has given the empire the glory of a certain period of time again and again.

Until there are more and more wise people, so many that they can sell everything they can sell to others, including their ancestors. In this case, there are also many stunned people, who continue to pile up the sky and the air, and finally have the appearance of the current empire.

Guoshi. Another understanding is that for the sake of the country, he can do nothing, just for a national character, and give everything he has. There is no one above the priesthood.

"But I'm just happy. Hahaha. Candle Shadow smiled, poured another glass of wine into the glass, and drank it all.

In fact, the death of the current emperor is beneficial and harmless, and it also happens to eliminate the idea of some people taking advantage of this life. Although the ten permanent servants are dead, Mengde, you don't forget, and the one in Liangzhou. At the same time, Ha Shi Chang is mixed up, and what he holds in his hands is unknown to us. ”

"Is it an edict? Or is it an edict? No one knows. But it doesn't matter, all that is needed is an excuse, and an excuse is enough. ”

After pondering for a long time, Cao Cao still nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"That's what I'm worried about." Cao Cao thought of the scribe he had seen that day, standing behind Jian Shuo.

That was the first time Cao Cao had seen the scribe, and no matter how he searched his memory, he could be sure that it was the first time he had seen the scribe in Luoyang City. After that, he entrusted Killer Lou to investigate, and at the same time, he also communicated with Yun Ting. In the end, all the clues pointed to Li Ru, who was Dong Zhuo's military advisor and Dong Zhuo's son-in-law.

Dong Zhuo's closest and most trusted person appeared in Luoyang City, what is this going to do? Without much thought, Cao Cao can basically deduce one or two.

The terrible thing is that he didn't know anything about this before, or he knew a little about it, but there were no more clues. Thinking of the fact that the other party had been hiding in Luoyang City for so long and had done something I don't know, Cao Cao felt even more chilled.

This poisonous snake, hidden in the shadows, is too terrifying.

"It's a pity that Li Ru was not found." Cao Cao sighed and expressed regret.

His commission is still hanging in the killer building, but unfortunately, until now, the killer building has not found Li Ru's whereabouts, let alone killed Li Ru. If he could, Cao Cao really wanted to leave Li Ru in Luoyang City and let him die without a place to be buried.

Shaking his head, Candle Shadow knew Cao Cao's thoughts somewhat, but he didn't have much hope for it. If it is said that it is in a small county, it is easy to say, but Luoyang City is so big, and Li Ru will be a person with clean hands and feet, trying to find him is no less than looking for a needle in a haystack.

As for the whole city of Dasuo or something, don't think about it, it won't work without a sufficient excuse. Luoyang City is the capital of the world, I don't know how many high-ranking officials and dignitaries, big businessmen and tycoons, these people will not let you knead.

"Don't think about it, let's think a little more about it. People like Li Ru, since they dare to enter Luoyang City, they must have the certainty of going out, otherwise they will not come in at all. Candle Shadow persuaded.

"It seems that you know Li Ru very well?" Cao Cao asked curiously, his understanding of Li Ru was limited to the identity of the other party, and the ability to associate it because of his identity.

Anyway, there are enough leaked heavenly opportunities, and Candle Shadow doesn't care about continuing to leak.

"Yes, Li Ru..."

"Strategist, Strategist, it's not good." Hu Che'er shouted as he ran.

His voice was so loud that far away that people could hear his shouts.

Inside the house, Li Ru, who was looking at a book with a book, couldn't help frowning when he heard Hu Che'er's voice. The last thing he likes when he is reading is being disturbed, especially a voice like Hu Che'er, which makes him unable to calm down and read a book.

Putting down the book, Li Ru stood up, walked over and opened the door.

As soon as he opened the door, he was facing Hu Che'er's big black and rough face.

"Military division, military division..." Hu Che'er, who was shouting, was about to knock on the door, but after seeing Li Ru, he hurriedly swallowed the last three words, not daring to make a sound.

With a simple mind and a keen intuition, he suddenly noticed Li Ru's somewhat unkind gaze.

"What's the matter?" Li Ru asked. His voice was still calm, and the unhappiness in his heart was not expressed at all.

But he is already prepared, once Hu Che'er really has nothing bad to tell, he will leave a lifelong memory for Hu Che'er.

is like Hu Che'er's previous bad habit of pushing the door directly without knocking, but he also changed it to the way it is now. As for the experience, how terrible are you saying it is to make a fool remember? At least normal people definitely don't want to experience it.

"Gollum." swallowed a mouthful of saliva, knowing that Li Ru's current state was very dangerous, Hu Che'er secretly rejoiced. His news is definitely one of the kind of big news, otherwise how dare he open his voice and shout like this.

If he is still taught a lesson, then Hu Che'er will go to the scout who told him that the news is indeed very big, and then return the lesson to him tenfold!

After seeing that Li Ru's face became a little more gloomy, Hu Che'er hurriedly spoke: "Military advisor, the emperor's old man is dead!" ”

"The emperor is dead?" There was a slight surprise in Li Ru's eyes, and he didn't even care about Hu Che'er's words. He hurriedly asked again, "Is it really dead?" ”

"yes, yes, really!" Hu Che'er nodded wildly.

Where dare it be fake? If it's fake, he'll definitely have to shed a layer of skin!

"Going to die?" Li Ru muttered to himself, don't care about Hu Che'er anymore.

The timing of the emperor's death is too strange and coincidental. It turned out that it was only the day after the defeat of Jian Shuo's military mutiny, that is, now, that he heard the news. The specific time of death should have to be moved forward, a little earlier.

"Not good." Li Ru's hand slapped his thigh heavily, he knew that he couldn't wait any longer.

There's one thing, if he doesn't do it, if he doesn't get it done before anyone else, then it's all over.

"Che, go and prepare the carriage. Gather everyone together, and send another order down to let the scouts start the planned path to withdraw from Luoyang City. Li Ru hurriedly commanded.

"Yes! Strategist! Hu Che'er answered and hurriedly ran away.

Only Li Ru was left standing alone behind the door, with irrepressible anxiety on his face.

He knew who would die next.

It's the Prince's Association.
