Chapter 35: Nothing but Loyalty!
"The Queen Mother? Which Queen Mother? ”
A sneer from the top interrupted the atmosphere of solemnity.
For a while, even the jingle of the nail leaves and the two screams that sounded outside the hall were overshadowed.
"The loyalty of the old slave is the edict of the first emperor, and now it is the decree of the Empress Dowager Dong!"
After all, he was still the emperor on the seat, and Zhao Zhong was afraid of three points in his heart, and he was strong and courageous to roar.
Seeing him behaving like this, Liu Wei smiled, "I just went to visit the Empress Dowager before going to the banquet, and I didn't hear her old man talk about it?" ”
Seeing that the emperor was still so calm in the face of the sword soldiers outside the hall, Zhao Zhong was shocked.
He never thought that now that the throne might not be guaranteed, this little emperor could still sit so high!
In a trance, Zhao Zhong recalled the ancestor who still held the wine meeting after the defeat of Pengcheng.
Now that the two phases are blessed, under the panic and shock, they can't refute it when they are pushed back by a sentence.
Where did he come from?
Today's transfer of troops, sealing officials, and summoning He into the palace are all pretentious acts, and there is no difference between them and rebellion!
The only fig leaf may be the meaning of "establishing Liu Xie" intentionally or unintentionally revealed by the first emperor.
But......
Thinking of the tempting promise, thinking of the "exclusion" he has been subjected to these days, thinking of his own support after Liu Xie ascended the throne, and thinking of Zhang Rang, who has been proud of the spring breeze in the past few months, knelt down at his feet!
The little hesitation just now disappeared in an instant, and even the mood gradually calmed down.
Until he saw a man stand up.
That figure is now the Dinghai Divine Needle of the soldiers in Luoyang City, and the sword blade that people with lofty ideals in the army swear to follow......
It was the only reason why he was hesitant to think about this "Qingjun side" plan repeatedly.
Seeing He Jin stand up, holding the hilt of the sword at his waist as if he was about to walk this way, Zhao Zhong unconsciously trembled and fell back half a step before stopping.
"He Jin! Do you really think that you will be invincible in the world if you kill two rats? Do you still want to be murderous when you die!? ”
He Jin didn't speak, but slowly drew his sword, which further set off the humility and panic under the cover of Zhao Zhong's fierce words.
"I ...... I'm going to die? Shouldn't it? Where's the reinforcements? Help! ”
Zhao Zhong's mind was full of wails before he died, as if the next moment the sword was coming, his dream of being alone in charge of the Zhongguan would be in vain.
Who knows, He Jin pulled out the sword but didn't pay attention to him, only glanced at him lightly, and turned to look at the palace gate.
As Zhao Zhong's eyes suddenly lit up, a sudden change occurred.
"Bang!"
There was a loud bang.
"Poof—poof—"
Two figures slammed through the door and fell in.
When he smashed on the ground, he vomited blood, but his internal organs were cracked, and he couldn't see it.
……
Ji Ling never thought that the first time he met the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, it would be as an assassin.
With his background, it was impossible for him to defect to the Yuan family, who was the fourth and third dukes, if he was not outstanding.
originally wanted to follow Yuan Shu to help him rise step by step, and in the future, he would lead the army on the battlefield and make meritorious contributions, and maybe he would be able to mix one side to guard the situation.
But just a few days after leaving Luoyang, things have changed.
The lord was bored, thinking that he would be invincible in the world by sending all the elite soldiers he had trained over the years to the battle array.
But the art of battle array, how can it be so simple?
The generals have no experience in battle formations, although they are all skilled, they have no tacit understanding, and they are constrained everywhere.
Sent into battle together, the combat power exerted is less than 12/12!
In this way, how can you be undefeated!
Now the lord is far away, and the reputation he has accumulated over the years has increased his jokes, and even the prestige of the fourth and third princes has become a stepping stone for others.
After all, a warrior is a warrior, and loyalty is the head.
The truth of the lord's humiliation and death, Ji Ling still understands!
So when Yuan Shu proposed a plan to wash the palace city in blood and wipe out He Jin and the eunuchs, although he had doubts, he still agreed.
Nothing else, after these days of studying, he only came to one conclusion:
If you don't make a move, none of Yuan Shu's sons are the opponents of He Jin!
Fortunately, entering the palace this time is not an unprepared reckless move, and there is always a master behind it. When he entered the palace, he found that there were a lot of "his own people" in the entire palace, and he decided a little more.
It is nothing more than an ending of "the general and the eunuch merged, and finally died together".
Since it's not a scheming one, it's easy to do.
Ji Ling only needs to be true to his mission.
How to enter, return to the camp to restore your life!
……
When the big man with a plate axe broke in the door, even Liu Wei couldn't help but praise it!
Although I don't know who this person is, if the other party can use it to deal with He Jin today, his strength must be great, and he must be a person with a name and a surname.
But it doesn't matter anymore, the enemy is the enemy, and the rebellious general is also a rebel after all.
He Jin's reaction was faster than Liu Wei's.
While he was still thinking nonsense, the sword at He Jin's waist was already unsheathed.
This sword is not a ceremonial sword as a status symbol, but an open-edged sword carefully prepared for this day!
It is precisely because of this that after He Jin received the other party's stormy blow, he did not break the sword and died.
"Good strength! Good means! ”
He Jin praised and swung his sword again, but this time his steps did not stop, and his skills were mainly attacked, and he no longer resisted.
After fighting with one move, Ji Ling's eyes lit up!
I was shocked, but I didn't speak.
He was an assassin, and the fewer traces he left behind, the better.
There is no vanity under the fame, and this He Jin really deserves his reputation.
But even so, he is no opponent!
Ji Ling shouted, and the tiger and tiger dancing with the wheel plate axe in his hand were vigorous, and the big opening and closing were faintly equal to the sword light!
This time, it completely covered up the lack of heavy weapons, but suppressed the sword in He Jin's hand everywhere.
After all, He Jin is much older than Ji Ling, who is in the prime of life, and with a quick battle or a quick fight, the two may be on par, and they may even win a move and a half with experience.
Now that such a wrestling and fighting is carried out, the end is nothing more than a sword broken and a body to die or a weak qi to leave.
But he can't go!
Behind him is the emperor, the word loyalty, nothing more than death and life!
……
What the situation is, the two people in the field know it well, and the onlookers can also see it clearly.
The more Ji Ling fought, the more courageous he became, and He Jin retreated again and again without hesitating others.
Zhang Rang frowned and pondered, not leaving Liu Bian's side, while Guo Sheng stood in front of the emperor with trembling, and provoked Liu Bian to push him aside with a displeased face.
And the most surprising and inexplicable thing in the field is that Zhao Zhong!
originally thought that death was coming, but he didn't want to send a savior from the sky.
No, Evil Star!
This big man looked powerful, but he didn't expect to be so brave, and he couldn't beat the "hypocritical" straw bag general in three or two clicks.
"He Jin! You've been rude enough, but you didn't expect to have today, right? ”
Watching He Jin eat deflated, he was happier than if he had benefited, if he didn't have that ability, I was afraid that he would have to rush up and cut a few swords by himself.
But not being able to do it doesn't mean that you can't help, Zhao Zhong glanced at the main entrance of the main hall, and saw a few sergeants who came with Ji Ling and were dressed as eunuchs.
"You guys, why are you still watching?! Hurry up and go up and help, take down the thief and have a lot of ......"
"Boom-"
Before he could reach the ground, his screams were interrupted by a loud bang behind him.
When he turned around, he saw the light flickering.
When he reacted, his eyes had already landed.
He tried his best to look up, but only a dark shadow whistled by......
