Huo Quzhi's move was extremely abrupt and swift.

No one expected him to choose to do it when he saw Xiahou Po, without any buffer and superfluous conversations.

Xiahou Po's face also flashed with momentary surprise.

Immediately, a mark on his brow flashed, as if to induce some kind of power.

But at this time, Huo Qubing borrowed 100,000 soldiers to add to his body, and pushed him forward, and the speed was unbelievable. His hand seemed to penetrate the wall of space, jumping out of the distance.

When the mark appeared on Xiahou Po's eyebrows, Huo Quai's hand had already touched the center of his eyebrows.

Under the pressure of Huo Quai, the mark exploded at an extremely slow speed, like a flame, enveloping Xiahou Po's forehead.

Xia Houpo had an incomprehensible expression on his face.

Everything seems to be slowed down.

Huo Qu's illness was on the finger of his eyebrows, causing the mark to shrink from the explosive state and reunite into a complete imprint.

Huo Quzhi withdrew his fingers, and the imprint was also taken out from Xiahou Po's eyebrows.

Its erupting flames were extinguished the moment the mark was removed.

Xiahou fell to the ground on his back, his eyes closed.

From a bystander's point of view, he seemed to have been stabbed in the center of his eyebrows by Huo Quai's finger and was killed.

"You killed him!" Princess Pingyang said sharply.

Her eyes were horrified, angry, and incredulous.

The change at the moment of contact between the two sides was too fast, and Cao Qian's cultivation did not see the process clearly. In the eyes of Princess Pingyang, it is indeed like Huo Qubing killed Xiahou Po.

She never expected Huo Qu to be so bold!

"Do you know that he is the husband of this palace after the founding of the country. Even if there is a mistake, it should be handed over to His Majesty for punishment, which round will get you...... Huo Qu's disease...... You're so bold! Princess Pingyang's whole body trembled, and there was a kind of creepy horror, and she took a step back.

Huo Qubing dared to commit murder in front of her......

"He's not dead."

Not dead?

Cao Wei and the others quickly stepped forward to check, and Xiahou Po was indeed still breathing, but it was very weak.

Cao Cunning's thoughts turned sharply, Xiahou Po and Huo Qubing fought, and then fainted, the process seemed too easy, and Xiahou Po lacked the resistance he deserved.

And if he really dies, Huo Qu is afraid that it will be difficult to explain this matter clearly.

After blessing the troops and killing the founding heroes with one blow, Princess Pingyang's husband, even if the emperor favors Huo Quai, he will not allow him to act so arbitrarily.

Cao Fu's thoughts flickered, and doubts were numerous.

Huo Quzhi was looking down at the flame mark in his hand.

The moment the mark was extinguished by him, a pale green flame rekindled.

Huo Quzhi flipped his hand and put the mark away.

Princess Pingyang also leaned forward and probed Xiahou Po's snort to make sure that he was still alive.

"Someone."

Princess Pingyang said sharply: "Carry up the Hou Ye, and we will enter the palace to face the saint." I will not be good at this. ”

Cao Wei glanced at Huo Quai.

Huo Quzhi shook his head slightly, meaning to let Princess Pingyang take people away.

Then the servants of the palace poured in and carried away the fainting Marquis of Ruyin.

"Huo Hou, this is ...... The mark of the eyebrows of the Marquis of Ruyin...... Did he fall into a coma himself? Cao Wei was a little confused.

……

The sky was bright and the clouds were thick.

In the main hall of Weiyang Palace, the emperor of the next dynasty walked to the study, followed by Huo Quai, who was dressed in military uniform.

The emperor's face was slightly serious: "Are you in trouble again?" ”

"Why did Your Majesty add a 'again'?" Huo Quzhi followed in the later position, and then there were Dong Zhongshu, Zhang Tang and others in the back.

"Did you get into less trouble? Let me help you deal with the aftermath every time. It doesn't matter if you cause trouble, you must have the ability to deal with it yourself, and don't make trouble to me. ”

The subtext is to wipe your own ass, don't bother me.

"In the morning, as soon as I got up, Pingyang entered the palace, and I left with her. And I also received a summons from the chamberlain at the court meeting, and the old relatives of the clan, the people of the clan who are close to ** Yang, and the Marquis of Ruyin are all alarmed, and they enter the palace one after another, and I let them wait in the study first......"

As he spoke, he came outside the study.

The Emperor entered the study first.

Huo Quzhi, Zhang Tang, Dong Zhongshu, Li Cai, and Sun Hong, the old prime minister, also entered with him.

The atmosphere in the study was solemn and full.

The elders of the clan, several clan relatives of Liu Che's elder generation, most of them had gloomy faces and waited in the study.

Among them was also the emperor's half-brother, Liu Pengzu, the king of Zhao, who was summoned from his fiefdom to Chang'an Miansheng.

Liu Pengzu has a white face and no beard, there are more bad things in the family than anyone else, and his personality is treacherous and changeable. During his reign, no minister of state in the feudal country could serve for two years, which shows that he was suspicious.

He heard that something was going on and came to see the excitement.

The rest of the clan relatives were all found by Princess Pingyang, and they were close to her elder relatives.

On the floor of the study, a low couch was raised.

On the couch is the unconscious Ruyin Hou Xiahou Po.

Princess Pingyang sat aside, her eyes red and swollen, and her face had undried tears.

The emperor did not say a word, and walked to the throne and took his seat.

As soon as Huo Qu came in, the eyes of the people of the clan fell on his face.

And all the ministers took their seats one by one.

It is worth mentioning that this time it was the clan that sat on the emperor's left hand side, and the ministers, regardless of civil and military, all sat on the emperor's right hand side, which was clearly distinguished.

After everyone sat down, Princess Pingyang wiped her cheeks and said slowly:

"Your Majesty, all the clan relatives, Huo Quai's illness was dark yesterday, and he broke into my house without authorization and severely injured my husband Xiahou Po. This palace just wants to ask, is it a meritorious general, can be pressed on the head of our clan, on the head of this palace, come to the door late at night to insult me, and even want to commit murder! ”

"If you don't give me an answer today, and don't severely punish the perpetrators, this palace will never agree."

The emperor glanced at Huo Quai, and then looked at Princess Pingyang: "How can it be regarded as a severe punishment?" ”

"If Xiahou can wake up, he should severely punish Huo Quai, strip him of his position, and cut his general. If Xiahou doesn't wake up, I want him to die! Princess Pingyang said in a deep voice.

"What do you clan members think?" The Emperor asked again.

Several clan elders of the clan, clan relatives, Zhao King Liu Pengzu were all looking at Huo Quai, with different eyes.

When the emperor's words fell, the first to speak was the clan elder Liu Yue, the descendant of Princess Lu Yuan, the daughter of Emperor Gaozu, one of whom had the surnames Zhang and Liu, and followed both sides of his parents.

Liu Yueren, as his name suggests, is tall and strong, with a white beard and white hair, and is extremely imposing: "Since the founding of Gaozu, no courtier has dared to break into the mansion of the princess of the clan."

Champion Hou has repeatedly broken the Huns in recent years, with great feats and great prestige. ”

Huo Quzhi expected that the people called by Princess Pingyang would not have any good words and no mood swings.

The next person who spoke was Liu Jue, the elder of the clan, in his early sixties, with thin eyes and long eyebrows, a slightly sunken jaw, and his eyes staring at Huo Quai: "You have made some military achievements, but it is the first time I have seen such a domineering courtier."

I don't know how your exploits are better than those of the Marquis of Huaiyin?

Your prestige is used on the head of the clan, who gave you the courage? ”

When he mentioned the Marquis of Huaiyin, he was reminding Huo Quzhi that with what the result of Han Xin's exploits was, let Huo Qubing weigh it himself.

Liu Jue turned his gaze to the emperor after speaking: "Your Majesty, as a courtier, the most taboo thing is to be spoiled.

In this matter, I am on the side of Binh Duong, and I will be severely punished. ”

Beside Liu Jue, another sect was in his early fifties, and he coughed lightly and said:

"I'm not in favor of being too severe. I'm just afraid that without his champion Hou, Siyi will not obey my Han, and without him, my Han will have no good generals, and no one will be able to lead the army.

If it weren't for that, how would he dare to come to the door and kill Pingyang's husband?

The champion Hou has made outstanding achievements, and we should let him score three points.

This breath can only be endured, after all, even His Majesty has to rely on him to fight. ”

This person is talking the opposite, yin and yang are weird, and he is a branch of the clan, and his name is Liu Yan.

The clan that rushed to get the news was all relatives of Princess Pingyang.

In addition to the above people, there are also some members of the clan who heard the news and were on the way to Weiyang Palace.

Princess Pingyang's meaning is obvious.

She wants to pull the endorsement of the clan and elevate the matter to the level of powerful ministers and military generals and humiliating the clan.

Outside the Weiyang Palace, in a car, there was an old man with a cane in his hand, who was being carried down from the car and walked towards the palace, and said in a deep voice as he walked: "There are ministers who dare to press on the head of my clan and break into the mansion of Pingyang at night.

is so arrogant, he is afraid that he has forgotten, compared with my Liu clan relatives, who is the lord and who is the minister. ”

This old man is the only three remaining members of the clan, the clan branch of Emperor Liu Che's father (grandfather), named Liu Hao, who was in his early eighties.

He heard the news and came on his own, walking slowly on his crutches.

Some foreign ministers dare to press on the head of the clan, in the eyes of the Liu clan, it is a serious crime of great disrespect. It was not just to bully Princess Pingyang, but the ministers stepped on the top of their clan's head and acted as a blessing.

In Liu Hao's eyes, this matter is second only to disobedience.

Therefore, after receiving the news sent by Princess Pingyang, some of the clans came after hearing the news, not only to suppress Huo Quai, but to affect the clan, and the foreign ministers must not be allowed to be safe and sound after bullying the clan.

The emperor has ordered in advance that all the clans who come can welcome them to the study.

Liu Hao was taken outside the study by the waiter, and listened on crutches at the door for a moment before sneering and walking in.

He was the oldest member of the clan, and as soon as he entered the study, everyone looked at him.

Liu Hao straightened his waist and didn't sit down, he stood directly in the middle of the study, poked his finger and looked at Huo Quai, and said:

"You are raised by Your Majesty, and now you don't want to serve Your Majesty, and you come to the door to humiliate the clan in turn?!"

Liu Hao took a breath and said, "I heard about Longxi before, and Your Majesty severely punished Longxi because of you. It can be seen that Your Majesty loves you very much, not only are you not grateful, but you are becoming more and more arrogant, this time you broke into Pingyang Mansion again, and also hit your husband Ruyin Marquis Xiahou Po hard.

You don't ask, the Xiahou family is the founding father, and there are still people in the army who were blessed by it back then.

What you have done to humiliate the clan is tantamount to rebelling against the ministers. ”

Liu Hao saluted Liu Che and said: "Your Majesty, Huo Quai's visit to humiliate Pingyang and beat the Marquis of Ruyin to make him faint. If it goes on like this for a long time, everyone will be able to press on the heads of our clan relatives. I am afraid that the society will be affected, and people's hearts will be moved.

I ask this Huo to get sick, and I must not indulge him in his actions by reciting some of his military exploits.

This is not a trivial matter, if Your Majesty can't bear to kill him, at the lightest you will have to strip him of his position and degrade him, otherwise it will not be enough to settle the grievances of the clan. ”

"You are so old, why do you have such a heavy resentment." Huo went to the sick road.

Liu Hao said angrily: "Your Majesty, look, this son is still rampant in front of you, which shows how arrogant he is."

He relied on himself to make some meritorious deeds, and if His Majesty did not punish him heavily, we would all be dissatisfied. ”

Call!

Liu Hao suddenly waved his crutches and poked Huo Quai's face.

The emperor stretched out his hand and flicked his cane aside, frowned, and said, "Liu Hao, you go to the side and sit down first!" ”

Liu Hao snorted coldly and sat down beside Princess Pingyang.

It didn't take long for the people from the clan to hear the news gradually increase, and they all gathered on the side of the clan relatives.

Huo Quai's injury to the Marquis of Ruyin was small, but it was the clan relatives who were violated.

In their eyes, this is a retainer who deceives the master.

You must know that the clan is a huge interest group, and some things cannot be explained by the emperor in a word, and the clan relatives need to be discussed. When they got together, they were taking a stand, not just about the matter itself, but by putting pressure on their side, forming a queue of ministers and lords.

Princess Pingyang, Liu Hao and the others all had slightly cold eyes, staring at Huo Quzhi from the other seat, with a slight sarcasm and anger at the corners of their mouths.

Zhao Wang, Liu Pengzu, Liu Jue, Liu Yan and other old clansmen also watched from the sidelines.

The emperor asked Huo Quai, "The process of last night's incident, the reason." Tell the truth, don't hide anything! ”

Huo Qu recovered from his illness and said: "Last night, I learned that the Marquis of Ruyin was practicing evil arts in the fiefdom, and I took someone to arrest him, it's as simple as that.

As soon as the minister made a move, the Marquis of Ruyin wanted to commit suicide, and the minister took action to save his life. ”

"Honest and clever words. You obviously hit it hard, and you are still fainting at the moment, and it becomes a salvation in your mouth? Liu Hao snorted coldly.

Huo Quzhi snorted lightly: "How do you know that I injured him, you saw it with your own eyes?" ”

Liu Hao's chest rose and fell violently: "I didn't see it, but what Pingyang said himself, is it false?" ”

He pointed at Huo Quai, turned his head and said, "Your Majesty, he must be severely punished today, and we will not coexist with this treacherous minister in the world." ”

The emperor said: "The champion Hou said that he saved the life of the Marquis of Ruyin, what evidence is there?" ”

Huo Quzhi spread out his hand, and the palm of his hand was still the burning flame mark that was taken from Xiahou Po's eyebrows.
