As the news of Liu Xie's assassination spread, Chang'an City, which was originally revitalized because of the food problem, suddenly cast a shadow.
Liu Xie still remembered the appearance of the assassin, and soon, under Liu Xie's guidance, the painter drew the appearance of the assassin.
"The assassin Your Majesty is talking about, this is the person" Seeing the portrait taken out by the painter, Wang Yue and Tong Yuan, who were urgently recruited, changed their faces together.
"The two teachers recognize this person," Liu Xie glanced at the two in surprise.
Wang Yue and Tong Yuan glanced at each other, nodded with a wry smile, Wang Yue smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty should know the rumors in the market that there are three monarchs in literature and three unique in martial arts." ” "That's true."
Liu Xie nodded, the gun was against Tong Yuan, and the sword was against Wang Yue, when Liu Xie received Wang Yue, he already knew this statement, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but move: "Could it be that this person is the third unique?"
"Not bad."
Wang Yue smiled bitterly: "Speaking of which, there are also some grievances between the minister and this person. ” "Can Master Wang say bluntly, who is this person who looks at this person's swordsmanship, although it is treacherous, but it does not deserve the title of grandmaster."
Liu Xie glanced at Wang Yue unexpectedly, that person's swordsmanship is naturally stronger than him, but Liu Xie often studies martial arts with Tong Yuan and Wang Yue, although the martial arts are not high, but the vision is not low, and the swordsmanship he performs is naturally higher than him, and it is a left-handed sword, the way is a little treacherous, and it is easy to be surprised, but if you talk about swordsmanship cultivation, it is really difficult to compare with swordsmanship masters like Wang Yue.
"This person's name is Deng Zhan."
Wang Yue thought for a while and said: "Although a good sword, but the talent is limited, but the bones are quite strong, has been defeated by Wei Chen and the other two swordsmanship masters, the heart is not angry, so he studied the left hand sword hair, twenty years ago in Yangzhou and Wei Chen about fighting, was Wei Chen accidentally injured his cheek. ” Wang Yue smiled bitterly and said: "Since then, there is no trace, I heard that he went to a foreign land to study alone, and Weichen didn't care about it after that, until ten years ago, he suddenly returned from outside the territory, and he didn't know where to learn a strange book, not only the body is soft, it can be twisted at will, and it has the ability to confuse people's hearts, I don't know how many famous people hate its sword, in the first year of Zhongping, and once again confronted the minister on the Mangdang Mountain outside Luoyang, that battle" Looking at Liu Xie's puzzled gaze, Wang Yue shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The minister lost half a move, but he also stabbed his right shoulder, since then, this person has been ranked with me, known as evil, but I don't know why I want to assassinate Your Majesty today." ” These things in the rivers and lakes sound quite thrilling, if it was in the previous life, Liu Xie liked these rumors very much, but now Liu Xie looked up at Wang Yue and Tong Yuan: "No matter how evil this person is, if this person is not removed, it will be difficult for me to pass on my edict and send sea fishing documents to Tianxia Prefecture and County, I want this person, and there is nowhere to go." ” As for who instigated it, Liu Xie can't do anything now, no matter which way the princes, since they have the heart to kill the Son of Heaven, courage is one thing, but the time to find it is really accurate, the imperial court at this time has no ability to expand externally, and if the princes of the road are rashly forced to openly rebel, if it can't be extinguished quickly, then this big Han Jiangshan, which still has a fig leaf in name, will be completely divided, Liu Xiezhen doesn't know how many people will be called kings and emperors at that time, so he has to endure it.
But it's not without benefits, when his strength is strong enough in the future, when he is ready to make a move on which princes, today's old account has become a sharp weapon in his hands, and when the time comes, it doesn't matter who instructs it, or rather, Liu Xie hopes that whoever instigated it is who instigated it, but Deng Zhan is a person who can kill him.
His own martial arts are still secondary, and his ability to confuse people with one hand really makes Liu Xie's heart cold.
"Your Majesty, Taifu Yang Biao, Jingzhao Yin Sima Fang, Zhong Xuan, and Ding Chong ask to see you."
Wei Zhong came in and bowed.
"Please" Liu Xie nodded, and soon, Yang Biao, Sima Fang, Zhong Xuan, Ding Chong, and several other ministers of the court and the central government entered one after another, and when they saw Liu Xie, they were all relieved.
"Your Majesty is blessed with all the heavens, fortunately, fortunately."
Yang Biao and the others breathed a sigh of relief, when they heard that someone had assassinated before, they were startled, at this time, if Liu Xie had any accident, then the world would be completely chaotic.
"You Aiqing bothered."
Liu Xie sat on the chair, stretched out his hand to help, and motioned for everyone to get up: "You have come just in time, I also have some things to talk to you about." ” "Your Majesty, please."
Several people hurriedly solemnized their faces and made a deaf look.
"These are the materials that Tiger Benwei has recently collected."
Liu Xie handed a stack of dossiers to Wei Zhong, who distributed them to the crowd.
"Recently, the imperial court is in an eventful autumn, should have worked together, the monarch and the ministers are united, to tide over the difficulties together, but the people recorded in these files, although there are no violations of law and discipline, but they are full of food all day long, nothing to do, as the head of a place, but do not think of asking for the people's life, all day long without seeing them, it is really incomprehensible, and these people, most of them are the clans of you or the ministers of the court, I don't understand in my heart, if they are incompetent, it will be fine, but judging from the previous achievements of these people, they are not incompetent people, why do you mean to be so slack in state affairs" Looking at everyone, Liu Xie frowned and asked, the recruitment order has been sent to all states and counties, but in the land of Guanzhong, Liu Xie did not reveal the slightest rumor, and at this moment, Liu Xie did not expect these people to be awakened by his own words, just to confuse them.
Sure enough, as Liu Xie's words fell, several people looked at each other, and at the end Zhong Xuan bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the ministers don't know about this matter, and after the ministers go back, ask about it, and then reply to Your Majesty." ” "That's very good."
Liu Xie nodded: "State affairs, private affairs, do not be confused, if there is any dissatisfaction, you can say it to me, but such a slack of duty, regard the people's livelihood as child's play, this wind can not be long, this time in the face of the ministers, I will not be held accountable, if I commit it again in the future, don't blame me for not being emotional." ” "Remember."
When the ministers heard this, they hurriedly bowed down and spoke.
After another greeting, everyone bowed down and retreated, Liu Xie sat on the chair, thinking about what had happened these days, turned his head to look at Wang Yue and said: "Today's incident, although it was an accident, but it also reminded me that although the guards in this palace are skilled, they lack actual combat. ” Whether it is on-the-spot reaction or battle awareness, today's assassination has revealed great drawbacks, if it weren't for Liu Xie's own long-term battlefield in the dream battlefield, I'm afraid that if he can't wait for Hu Benwei to save him today, their group of people will have to be wiped out.
And as Liu Xie recruited more and more talents, such as Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, Gan Ning, these generals are fine, but the protective forces around Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Li Ru are extremely weak, if someone wants to harm them, then Liu Xie really has no way at all.
The establishment of a force similar to Zhongnanhai's bodyguards is responsible for protecting important people, in Liu Xie's view, it is already urgent, he has some theories similar to those of later generations, plus strengthened through achievement points, which can enhance the combat potential of the troops, but in terms of awareness, it also needs to be trained by specialists, at least this palace guard is trained by Liu Xie, and the combat effectiveness may be strong, but the strain is lacking, and it is really not enough to rely on at a critical moment.
"Your Majesty's words are serious, and the ministers should do their best."
Wang Yue nodded when he heard this, after all, he is also the commander of the Tiger Ben Guard and the position of the martial arts hall, it is impossible to be by Liu Xie's side all the time, in a short period of time, he and Tong Yuan can take turns to protect Liu Xie, but as time goes by, it is not a long-term solution after all, as Liu Xie said, it is indeed advisable to train a group of guards who are specifically responsible for protecting Liu Xie and important members of the imperial court.
"If you are a candidate, you can choose from the palace guards and tiger guards, and train them, and it is best to be able to specialize in some combined attack techniques."
Liu Xie thought about it and said.
The palace guards, the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers is enough, but if you cooperate, judging from today's situation, it is too bad, as for how to do it, Liu Xie believes that Wang Yue will do it stronger than himself, this kind of thing, there is no need to meddle in it by himself.
In the next few days, Chang'an City was calm, but thousands of miles away on the Hetao Plain, it was full of blood.
The sound of horses' hooves kept kicking on the cold ground, the cold air, mixed with a little panic, the man on horseback was obviously tired, with horror on his face, only one arm was left to wave the horsewhip frantically, whipping the body of the sitting war horse again and again, looking back from time to time, as if behind him, something terrifying was pursuing.
Behind him, there were more than a dozen embarrassed Hun warriors, whose expressions at the moment were similar to those of their leader with broken arms, with a frightened face, even though they looked very tired, but they never had the intention of stopping.
At the forefront, the face of the leader of the severed arm was already a little pale, and the neatly severed arm was still dripping blood, and the clothes and mounts looked extremely terrifying with a large amount of blood.
The icy sound of "sigh" breaking the air in the cold wind of hunting was a little harsh, like a talisman, which made the knights on horseback even paler one by one.
"Poof" A ray of light crossed the sky, accurately submerged into the man's vest with a broken arm, and then burst out of his chest, the man's burly body trembled, and his body involuntarily moved forward by the huge inertia carried by the arrow, coupled with excessive blood loss, the whole person was planted forward, falling in front of the galloping horse, the big hooves of the bowl crushed his chest unconsciously, a pair of round eyes, with a few decompositions, it seemed that it was a happy thing to finally be able to say goodbye to this ruthless world.
The knights around didn't seem to see their leader dead, didn't pause, didn't even dare to take a second look, just moved the horsewhip, and hurried a little. t1706231537:
