On the 24th day of December in the fifth year of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the fifth year, heavy snow shrouded Chang'an, today should be the day to discuss the crime for Wei Chi, Yuwen stood at the forefront of the courtiers with a cane, no one dared to look directly at this old man who had mastered the authority of the Great Zhou for many years, and the backbones of everyone were bent down.

“…… After many days of interrogation, the crime of Wei Chi Hui's rebellion is beyond doubt, in addition, the minister also found out that Wei Chi Hui was guilty of the crime of embezzlement of military salaries, the crime of exaggeration, and the crime of killing good and imitating merit. ”

Yuwen Guardian Eagle Falcon-like gaze swept at the people above the main hall, Emperor Yuwen Yong's face was pale, sitting on the throne, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces were hunched and shrunk their backs, trying to avoid the sense of existence in front of Otsuka Zai, and no one dared to speak out to help, the Yuwen clan members did not even dare to breathe, only stood far away, Yuwen Hu was very satisfied with this, he has been in power for so many years, I don't know how many people have fought against him, how about Hou Mo Chen Chong? How about Dugu Xin? What about those two little emperors? All dead! Yu Wenzhi, Yu Wenchun, Yu Wenshu and others are all on his side, he doesn't believe it, the matter has come to this point, is anyone still afraid to go against him?

He was smug in his heart, and one of the courtiers stood up and said:

"The minister has objections! My father...... It is impossible for the general Wei Chi Yuan to rebel, as for the matter of Otsuka Zai's greed for ink, the minister is willing to vouch for my father with the head of the head, there is no such thing! Your Majesty, please check it out! ”

The person who came out of the class was Wei Chi Dan, the son of Wei Chi Yuan, who shouted in grief and fell to his knees, trying to fight for a glimmer of life for his father.

Yuwen Hu's loyal dog-legged Yin Chengcheng just wanted to come out to scold, and more than a dozen people among the courtiers came out to ask for Wei Chi Hui's name, most of these people are Wei Chi Hui's old subordinates, Yu Wen Hu looked around, there were Yuan Zhen, Qi Nuxing, Yu Wensheng, Qi Lianxiong...... There were even a few civil servants.

"Yang Jian......, this yellow-haired child who doesn't know the height of the sky!"

Yuwen Hu's eyes were firmly nailed to Yang Jian, and all of a sudden, he understood whose handiwork this was, these days, Yang Jian has been running around for Wei Chi Yuan, lobbying courtiers everywhere to rescue Wei Chi Yuan, and exposing his hole cards, if he doesn't jump up, it's okay, he can live a little longer, his jumping, not only completely aroused Yuwen Hu's murderous intent, but also exposed a lot of hidden strength and connections in the Suiguo Mansion......

"Originally, I wanted to settle accounts after the autumn, but I didn't expect you to send it to the door yourself!"

Yuwen's beard on his lower jaw is like a steel brush, with his face tilted upwards, his tiger eyes narrowed slightly, and his murderous intent is together, and he has his own great wind and thunder.

Yang Jian lowered his eyebrows and stood in a position that did not move forward or backward, as if he was no different from all the other courtiers who were under the authority of Yuwen's protection, but his spine was straight.

Then Yin Chengcheng shouted: "What are you doing here? Wei Chi was greedy for military salaries and colluded with enemy countries, and his crimes were obvious and unforgivable! Otsuka Zai and His Majesty remembered the merits of the Battle of Shayuan and the Battle of Pingshu in the past, and did not harm their families, you ...... What's not to be satisfied with?! ”

"Fart! General Wei Chi has always been sympathetic to the soldiers, and he must be the first in every battle, he is loyal to the court and the community, how did he become a rebellious person who is greedy for military salaries and colludes with Gao Qi? "A general knelt on one knee, his eyes were red and he glared at Yuwen Hu, and said;" The general is loyal and courageous, and the sky can learn from it! ”

Yin Chengcheng was annoyed in his heart, and secretly glanced at Yuwen Hu, seeing that Yuwen Hu didn't even bother to turn around, he couldn't help but be frightened, as Otsuka Zai's dog legs, he must have the consciousness of kneeling and licking for Otsuka Zai to bite people at any time, so he waved his sleeves and stood up angrily and reprimanded:

"You are presumptuous! Whether Wei Chi Hui is guilty or not, he has his own special person to interrogate and adjudicate, and you can't be presumptuous here! ”

"Hahahaha, then you just have no evidence, since there is no evidence, then your words to frame the general cannot be established!"

"You're ......!!"

"-Take it!"

Yuwen Hu, who was in the forefront, suddenly drank in a low voice, and several armor soldiers rushed in from outside the hall and pressed the general to the ground.

The general's side face was pressed to the ground, and he glared at Yuwen Hu like a demon, "Old thief! You slander loyalty, you ...... Come to a sticky end! ”

The sword light flickered in front of him, and Dou Da's head fell to the ground, and his eyes were still open, looking at the dome of the hall very unwillingly.

Yuwen Hu actually killed a courtier on top of the main hall!

Yuwen Yong, who was on the throne, was also pale, with a hint of panic on his face, Yuwen Hu turned his head, turned around slowly, bowed to the emperor, and said: "The old minister is dedicated to picketing the ministers for the country and protecting the foundation of Emperor Taizu, what's wrong?" ”

Yuwen Yong lowered his eyes, an outsider: "Otsuka Zai is a ...... without mistakes"

"Then why is the old minister public-minded, but it has attracted doubts, the minister has assisted the king for many years, and he was born and died for the Great Zhou, which is ...... Is it for the sake of the minister himself? The old minister is for the foundation of the Yuwen clan! In order to live up to the heavy responsibility of Emperor Taizu, in order not to let my Yuwen clan fall into the hands of outsiders! And now, some people question the old minister's loyalty, which is really chilling for the old man......"

"Otsuka's heart, I already know, when the emperor died, he left his last words, all court affairs, listen to Otsuka Zai's orders, Otsuka Zai said that Wei Chi has the heart of rebellion, presumably ...... It can't be that he was wronged......"

Wei Chi and Wei Chi Qin looked at the emperor in shock, trembling all over, and then listened to the emperor's edict:

"After investigation, the general, Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, Shangzhu State, and Shu State Lieutenant Chi Yuan, corruption and rebellion, the evidence is conclusive, sentenced to death, read that he has contributed to the country, and gave him a glass of poisonous wine, so that he committed suicide in prison......"

The blood on Yang Jian's face slowly faded, he thought of a possibility, looked at the person on the throne in a daze, and did his best to collapse his body, firmly standing in place, he knew that he had been betrayed......

For this day, Yang Jian used almost a large part of their family's hole cards in the court, and also rebelled against a large number of people who had old ties with Wei Chi, and there should have been Yuwenda, Yuwenshu, Yuwen Shenju, and Changsun Lan...... Now they are watching, not saying a word from beginning to end......

Yang Jian knew that he had been betrayed, and he remembered Hou Mo Chen Chong, who died tragically......

He risked such a huge danger to match Yuwen Yong, and accumulate strength to wait for Yuwen to fight in the court today, even if there is little hope, but Yuwen Hu lost both Eastern Crusades, and his prestige in the court is no longer necessary, if these forces are entangled, coupled with the palace guard army in Yuwen Shenju's hands, the power of the Wei Chi family in the army......

There may not be no possibility of a turnaround!

Yang Jian has observed Yuwen Yong for many days, he is not willing to be a puppet person, so everything above the court today only shows one thing!

Yang Jian has become the pawn who must be sacrificed in Yuwen Yong's chessboard!

Yuwen Yong wants to exchange the lives of Wei Chi Hui and Yang Jian for Yuwen Hu's trust!

"If there's nothing to do, let's retreat......"

Yuwen Yong turned around and wanted to leave, but Yuwen Hu shouted: "Your Majesty, slow down!" ”

He said: "Although Wei Chi Yu died, he still has his comrades.

These days, there is a person who has formed a party everywhere, and today he is still attacking the old minister above the court, and the old minister also asks for an order to picket this person! ”

“…… Who? ”

"Yang Jian!"

……

The wind blew the snow through the small window.

Wei Chi Yu sat silently under the wall of the dungeon, in front of him was a big red lacquer plate, with a pot of wine and a few cups on it, and the palace people stood not far away, "Grandpa, you should still drink, Your Majesty and Otsuka Zai said, allow you to cut yourself, and your family will forgive you and immortal......"

"Is this an order from His Majesty?"

It took a long, long time for Wei Chi Yu to spit out this sentence.

There was no shock, no anger, no sadness on his face, it was a numb expression.

"Your Majesty...... There's no way......" The palace people were just about to cry, but Wei Chi Yu shouted: "Get out!" ”

Wei Chi has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and the power of this drink is murderous, which is not something ordinary people can resist, and for a while, it is like a golden gourd hitting the head of the palace person, and it is blank. He stood there dumbfounded, looking at Wei Chi Yuan.

"The old man wants to go quietly alone," said Wei Chiyu, "and after two quarters ......of an hour, you will come again and collect my body." ”

The door of the cell was closed, Wei Chi looked up, a trace of cold air rushed down from the top of his head, and the scattered snowflakes fell on his unkempt white hair, and they couldn't tell each other......

He stretched out his hands that had once carried the knife and made meritorious contributions on the battlefield, and they were full of traces of swords and fire, and blood flowing.

Pour yourself a full glass, and your eyes gradually blurred......

Time makes people old......

I still remember that back then, he was still young, and he followed his uncle Yuwentai to the south to conquer the North Station, attack Shayuan, Pingshu, and several eastward expeditions, winning the glory of a lifetime, and in the end, did he end up like this......

"Bo Juluo, you kid is very good, come and be your uncle's governor, in the future, I will make you a general!"

"Bo Juluo, I have entrusted you with this battle of Pingshu, what good plan do you have?"

The first thing that came to mind was Yu Wentai and his meritorious career as a horseman......

Slowly, Yu Wenyong came to his mind.

"Bo Juluo, will Otsuka Zai kill me?"

"His Majesty who doesn't dare, there are ministers, and the ministers swear to protect Your Majesty!"

"Bo Juluo, whether you can regain military power in the hands of Yuwen Hu depends on this battle."

"Your Majesty, the minister has been defeated ......"

"Get up, it's not your fault, Otsuka Zai doesn't use soldiers well, and it's not good for non-warriors."

"Bojuro, of all people, I trust you the most."

Bitter tears slowly slipped out of his eyes, and the corners of Wei Chi's mouth pulled out an ugly smile, and he muttered:

"The minister knows that His Majesty is a ......last resort, and from now on, the minister can no longer protect His Majesty's left and right, I hope Your Majesty ...... Well-being! ”

He drank the wine from his glass.

……

Under the eaves in front of the Taiji Palace, Yuwen Yong sat on the white jade steps in a daze.

"Bojurota...... Did he say anything before he died, he ...... Hate or hate? ”

The palace man shook his head and said sadly: "The general said that he didn't blame His Majesty, he knew that His Majesty was a last resort......"

Yu Wenyong's face was pale, trembling, and he bit his lower lip to suppress the bloody gas surging in his throat.

He stood up, turned around, and leaned against the pillars of the main hall, resting his head on it.

"I ...... I'm sorry he ......."

"I will give it to his children and grandchildren, for all ages...... Glory ......"

There were drops of blood splashed on the floor tiles, which was very conspicuous.

The palace people were shocked and said in a hurry: "Your Majesty? ”

"I'm fine."

"I'm fine......"

……

"What a loyal and courageous lieutenant," Gao Wei was full of emotion after hearing the news.

"Yuwen Yong is assisted by such a loyal minister and righteous man, and he is very fortunate in his life!"

"I didn't expect Yuwen Hu to do such a drastic method."

"If the sky wants him to die, he must first make him crazy, this time let Yuwen Yong abandon Wei Chi Yuan and Yang Jian, and break his tail to survive, Yuwen Hu will have no chance in the future, and wait to see how he dies is ......"

"I really don't understand, Wei Chi is such a general, and he is loyal, why did Yu Wenyong abandon him? What did he think? ”

"Wei Chi Yu is dead, you can confuse Yuwen Hu and buy him time to prepare."

The emperor's thinking is common, and Gao Wei understands it after just a little thought.

"He who turns his back on me will die innocently, and he who is loyal to me ......" he took a breath here, "and die as he deserves." ”

"This is like Yuwen Yong, this is the Yu Wen Yong I want to defeat with dignity! That day...... It won't be too far away......" Gao Wei's eyes flashed with a touch of fanaticism, waved his sleeve robe, and said, "...... They are busy, we can't be idle, pass the order, get the New Year's affairs ready, six days later, I have a big event to announce! ”
