Time passed little by little, and the assassination team took out the water they carried with them and began to drink, took out the food they carried with them, ate and drank to their heart's content, accumulated sufficient physical strength, and waited for the arrival of that important moment.

Pi Yuan looked at the sky, estimated the approximate time, and sent a signal to his teammates to prepare for battle.

Liu Bei is a very self-disciplined and punctual person, the law they have found these days is like this, Liu Bei's time to go to where every day is quite fixed, and now, it is time for Liu Bei to arrive.

They grabbed the swords in their hands one after another, and the people of the crossbow team also put their arrows on the bowstring, ready to bend their bows and shoot at any time, as long as Liu Bei appeared, he would definitely die.

But time passed for a while, and Liu Bei did not appear.

Pi Yuan was a little surprised.

In the past few days, Liu Bei appeared here at this time every day, could it be that something was delayed today?

This sudden situation surprised the team members, and he signaled the team members not to be impatient, not to panic, and to wait for a while, but he didn't wait for Liu Bei to continue waiting.

Eventually, they lost their breath.

"Why didn't Liu Bei come?"

"Didn't he come here at this time?"

"Is there anything going on today?"

"Is something wrong?"

"How so?"

When a group of people looked at me and I saw that you couldn't figure out the situation, the door of the warehouse where they were hiding was suddenly violently kicked open, and a group of heavily armed soldiers rushed in with shields and clubs.

The assassination team was caught off guard, and although they resisted hard, they were beaten to the ground and fell to the ground, and soon lost their ability to resist.

Zhao Yun stood outside the warehouse, and when the subordinates on the mission brought out a group of pig heads three and pig heads, Zhao Yun's face was full of disdain.

"Such a group of people still want to assassinate the general? I really look up to you! ”

As he spoke, Zhao Yun said to the people around him: "Go and report to the general quickly, just say that the matter has been done, please come over." ”

"Yui!"

A soldier turned on his horse and galloped away.

Then, Zhao Yun explained to the seven or eight soldiers around him.

"Command it at once, and do it according to the plan, and there must be no mistake."

"Yui!"

The soldiers mounted their horses and galloped away,

After about three incense sticks, Liu Bei's carriage appeared on this street, he got off the carriage unhurriedly, and walked forward slowly under the escort of the guards.

"Everyone is here?"

He looked at Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun nodded.

"There are a lot of them, all here."

"How many other teams have been ordered to go down?"

"Well, it's all ordered, there will be no problem."

"Well done."

Liu Bei patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder, then stepped forward and saw Pi Yuan.

"Your name is Pi Yuan, right? Chief disciple of Huan Dian, I saw you when I was debating before. ”

"Humph!"

Although Pi Yuan was beaten into a pig's head, he did not show a gesture of fear, but looked at Liu Bei with a disapprehensive expression.

"Tell me, who told you to do it?"

"No one directs you."

Pi Yuan said coldly: "It's you Liu Bei who has done a lot of injustice, and my generation of students in the literary school can't tolerate you, a thief, to continue to be arrogant, so they spontaneously rose up to kill you, since the matter was revealed and you found out, I have nothing to say, but this matter is led by me alone!" ”

"You're alone? How powerful are you? ”

Liu Bei looked at the standard bows and crossbows in the army that they had confiscated: "You don't have an official position, but you can get a strictly controlled standard bow and crossbow and arrows in the army?" Do you think I, the general, am so incompetent that I will be deceived by your nonsense? ”

"I stole it!"

"Stolen?"

Liu Bei sneered: "It's not bad, the bones are quite hard, and you don't want to betray your companions, right?" But why don't you want to think about how I managed to catch you all? How did I know you were in this place? Aren't you surprised? ”

That's really weird.

He was beaten into a pig's head just now, and under the fear and panic, Pi Yuan didn't have time to think about these problems, but now that Liu Bei brought it up, he realized that this matter was quite strange.

And there is only one explanation that does not seem strange - there are inner ghosts!

"Who betrayed us?"

Pi Yuan stared at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei looked back behind him.

"Come here, he wants to see you."

"Yui."

An indifferent voice sounded, and Pi Yuan's eyes widened.

"Should...... Should I relocate? You...... You're not ......."

Ying Qian nodded.

"Well, it's me, that's right, I delivered these things to you with my own hands, didn't I? I still have a complete record of the retrieval there, which can be corroborated, and now these bows and crossbows and arrows can be found out at a glance, and there is no need to hide them at all. ”

This time, it was not only Pi Yuan, but the other disciples of the Jinwen School who came back to their senses also looked at Ying Qian with wide eyes.

"You...... Aren't you a protégé of the Zhang family? And you're not ......"

"Yes, I am a protégé of the Zhang family, and I was also a protégé of the Yang family, the earliest, I was a subordinate member of the General Affairs Department established by the general, and later I left the General Affairs Department before I switched to the Yang family."

Ying Qian nodded: "But now, I'm a subordinate of the general again, can't I?" ”

"You...... You ......"

Pi Yuan's eyes widened, and he couldn't imagine that this person would say his repeated betrayal so lightly.

It seems to be very relaxed.

It shouldn't be like this, it's not right, it's impossible.

How could he betray repeatedly?

How can he betray repeatedly and still be accepted?

First from the Liu family, then from the Yang family, then followed the Zhang family, and then jumped back to the Liu family, how can people be shameless, how can they get to this point?

Pi Yuan turned to the offensive and glared at Liu Bei angrily.

"Such a treacherous villain, you actually believe him?"

"I don't believe him, do you believe you? He helps me, you want my life. ”

Liu Bei looked at Pi Yuan with a puzzled expression.

"I ...... I ......"

Pi Yuan was angry, and then looked at Ying Qian again: "You dog thief!" Traitor! Thief! Traitor! I hate not being able to eat your flesh! Drink your blood! Sleep your skin! You're ...... You three slaves!! ”

To be honest, when the four words of the three surnamed slaves were said by Pi Yuan, Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head to look at Ying Qian.

He saw that Ying Qian's originally expressionless face was finally moved, and his face gradually turned red, and then he walked quickly to Pi Yuan, who was tied up by five flowers, and slapped him with his hand.

"Three domestic slaves? When did I become a house slave? You, a dog thief, assassinated the general of the dynasty by yourself, and you still want to slander me? I'm a hero, and you're a thief! Traitor! Traitor!! ”

As he spoke, he was still angry, and slapped him again, beating Pi Yuan dizzy.

Liu Bei smiled and stepped forward to stop Ying Qian.

"Okay, okay, Qian, don't be too angry, he's a dying man, what are you angry with a dying man?"

Ying Qian blushed and stared at Pi Yuan.

"General, when Pi Yuan was executed, please let me watch!"

"This one does."

Liu Bei nodded and agreed to Ying Qian's request.

This group of people was arrested, and in their respective identities, as well as bows and arrows that were forbidden to be possessed by private individuals, as well as the testimony of the relocation and the records of the collection of bows and arrows, this matter was directly an iron case.

Therefore, while capturing this group of assassins, Liu Bei instructed Zhao Yun to organize a team, and asked Zhang Rang and Guo Hong to help, mobilizing 1,000 Dongyuan secret agents and 1,000 officials and apprentices of the Central Capital.

The secret agents and the officials and apprentices of the central capital all went out and poured into the mansions of the major families of the modern literary school, and took out the imperial court order to arrest people, followed by a burst of chickens and dogs, ghosts and wolves.

The people of the major families of the modern literary school were wiped out, including Huan Dian, Zhang Xi and others, all of whom were arrested and brought to justice.

Soon, this matter was known to the court officials, whether it was the officials of the ancient literary school, the neutral faction, or some uninformed officials of the modern literary school, they were extremely shocked by this.

After the shock, the group of ancient literature was furious, the neutral officials were submissive and silent, and the officials of the modern literary school were directly frightened.

The assassination of Liu Bei is a very serious matter, and its nature is extremely bad.

This was an assassination of Liu Bei, a general of the dynasty, a relative of the Han family, and the lord of the Liu clan in Zhuo County, Zhuo County, an assassination of an official of the imperial court, a leader of the ancient literature school, and an assassination that completely broke the political rules.

They have committed a great taboo.
