Chapter 2149 life and death
"You can stab him to death quickly. Then I will let you get together and be the right wife." Sun Ce waved his hand and said impatiently, while calmly making a gesture to Guo Wu behind Lu Xiaohuan.
When Lu Xiaohuan was stunned, Guo Wu stepped forward, grabbed Lu Xiaohuan's wrist holding the knife with one hand, and waved his palm to slash at Lu Xiaohuan's neck. Lu Xiaohuan was agile. He heard the sound of the wind, lowered his head, threw the knife, twisted his wrist, broke free from Guo Wu's hand, took off the sword from Guo Wu's waist with his backhand, rolled on the ground, squatted on the ground, covered his left hand with his left hand, and used a sword pulling force with his right hand, raised his eyes and glared at Guo Wu.
Guo Wu was very surprised. "Why would you do this when Ma Mengqi draws his sword?
Sun Ce was also very surprised. Lu Xiaohuan had no brains, but his martial arts were indeed good. In these few moves, even Guo Wu was careless and almost touched her.
"What's the difficulty? You'll be able to read it a few times." Lu Xiaohuan said hatefully: "Go aside, otherwise I'll kill you."
Yuan Yao touched his neck and smiled bitterly: "Don't hold on. Although you have good martial arts skills, you are not strong enough. You are not a match for Guo Duwei, so you should surrender so as not to ruin your life."
"It's all your business!" Lu Xiaohuan cursed, but there was a dizziness in front of him. His body shook twice, and he fell softly to the ground. Guo Wu stepped forward, picked up his sword, and even put the knife in the sheath, and ordered someone to tie up Lu Xiaohuan and detain him temporarily. Looking at Lu Xiaohuan who was dragged away, Yuan Yao wanted to speak but stopped.
"Do you know who she is?" Sun Ce asked.
"Who is she? Assassin?" Yuan Yao was confused.
"Lu Bu's daughter, the noble man of the Emperor of Guanxi." Sun Ce smiled slightly, and said nothing. In the original history, Lu Bu planned to form an alliance with Yuan Shu. Lu Xiaohuan should have been Yuan Yao's wife, but she failed to succeed later and had no fate.
Yuan Yao responded, but didn't take it to heart. He came to report something. The New Year is approaching, and Sun Ce is stranded in Runan and does not return. Yuan Heng sent someone to ask, intending to go back to Runan to celebrate the New Year together and worship Yuan Shu by the way.
Sun Ce thought this plan was good. Zhu Huan won, and the war in Yanzhou would soon have a result. Those who should be killed should be killed, and those who should be comforted should be comforted should be restored. A large number of workshops should be built. Sister Yuan would be able to help when he came back at this time, at least he would be very useful in raising funds.
In the afternoon of the same day, Guo Jia led his troops to Dingtao.
Guo Jia was also puzzled when he learned that the emperor came to see him on his own initiative. However, he felt that this was not important. The emperor was seriously injured and only Lu Xiaohuan was with him. Obviously, he was not surrendering. As for what he wanted to do, he would naturally know when he woke up.
In contrast, he was more concerned about the changes in the world situation. The emperor was defeated, and the Wu army won consecutive victories, aggressively, and the princes were shocked, afraid that they would shrink the front line and turn off attack to defense. Next, should we continue to attack, or slow down a little, adjust the pace, and make a decision as soon as possible. The final report of the five-year plan has been released, and military expenditure is the biggest deficit. This is already the case on the spot. If we take the initiative to attack, the deficit will further increase, which may affect the implementation of the next five-year plan.
Sun Ce agreed. He has also been considering this issue in the past two days. If Zi suddenly appears here today, the situation changes beyond his imagination, and he also needs to think calmly. He then ordered someone to pass on a letter to Jianye, and asked Zhang Hong, Yu Fan and others to come to Runan together to discuss the plan.
In the evening, Sun Ce received a detailed report from Zhu Huan. In this battle, the cavalry was the absolute main force and the results were gratifying. The Yulin Cavalry led by the emperor were almost wiped out, with only more than 200 people escaping. Many generals, including Changshui Captain Zong Ji, were killed, and the Bingzhou Army was wiped out. Important generals, including Lu Bu, were killed, and Zhang Liao was captured. His own side suffered a lot of losses. More than one-third of the dead knights were injured, and almost all the remaining knights were injured and they had no ability to fight again in the short term. When Dong Zhao sent someone to surrender, Zhu Huan asked for instructions to surrender to negotiate with Dong Zhao.
Sun Ce knew that Zhu Huan wanted to preserve his strength and gain opportunities for the next battle to attack Jizhou. With the military achievements of defeating the emperor, he had proved that he did not need to fight with Dong Zhao anymore. It would be best for him to end the war early and let the soldiers rest.
After discussing with Guo Jia, Sun Ce decided to accept Zhu Huan's suggestion and negotiate with Dong Zhao, and the specific matters were to be taken care of by Man Chong.
The report of Lu Su was also reported by Zhu Huan. Lu Su intercepted Liu Ye, but escaped Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun left with the emperor's edict. Heavy snow covered his traces. The scouts could not track them, and they were afraid they could not catch up. Liu Ye was captured, but refused to surrender, and he wanted to retire to the countryside. Lu Su did not dare to make a decision and sent someone to transport Liu Ye to Dingtao. Now he is on the way.
"There is no greater sorrow than death in the heart." Guo Jiaqu pointed to the fight report of Lu Su and smiled slightly. "The three armies seized the commander and every man seized the ambition. Nothing is more than this. The future is terrifying. Lu Yi is already the posture of a famous general. Zhou Gongjin and Taishi Ziyi dare not slacken."
Sun Ce smiled but didn't say anything, but he had another plan in his heart. The wood was so beautiful that the wind would destroy it. It would be a good thing that Lu Yi showed his edge too much.
The emperor was sleeping for a day and a night, and finally opened his eyes.
"Lingjun, sister?" The emperor was surprised to see Liu He lying in clothes beside him. "I... where am I?"
"Your Majesty, you are in the yard of the eldest princess." Xun Yu was surprised and happy, rubbed his blood-covered eyes and reached out to hold the emperor's hand. The emperor's hand was wet and cold, as if he had just been fished out of the water. Xun Yu was worried and hurriedly ordered someone to call the doctor to check on the emperor. Taking advantage of this skill, he told the general story. The emperor listened quietly and looked at Liu He who was lying on the bed with a gentle look.
"It seems that my sister is doing pretty well. The King of Wu is a true man, not a person who invites fame."
"Your Majesty said very much." Xun Yu nodded. "I have been with the King of Wu for several days and I feel this way. Although the King of Wu is not a saint, he is a child."
"If you can be praised by the Lord, it will be worth my departure." The emperor gasped for a moment. The doctor came in to take the emperor's pulse. Liu He was awakened and was surprised and happy to see that the emperor woke up. Before he could speak, he couldn't help but burst into tears. The emperor held Liu He's hand and smiled and said, "Sister, can eat a cow in my belly."
"Yes, yes." Liu He Ru Ru woke up from her dream and responded repeatedly, turning around and asking someone to prepare. After thinking about it, he turned around and bowed to the doctor who was taking the emperor's pulse. "Master Dong, Your... What can my brother eat?"
The middle-aged doctor glanced at the emperor and said slowly: "Eat whatever you want."
Liu He felt relieved and turned around and asked the emperor what he wanted to eat. The emperor looked at the doctor meaningfully, turned to Liu He and smiled, "Sister, please take some of the delicious food, I'll try it before talking about it."
Liu He agreed repeatedly and turned to prepare. Xun Yu's face became very ugly, but he just held back and didn't say anything. When the doctor left the door, he found an excuse to follow him. The doctor was waiting around the corner of the corridor. Xun Yu quickly stepped forward and gave a bow.
"Master, how is Your Majesty's condition?"
The doctor shook his head and pondered for a moment. "I'm not hiding the truth. The emperor's wound was watered and he suffered from a cold again. Although he was not terminally ill, he had already penetrated his pores. If he was not young and strong, he would have been afraid to return to Mount Tai. Now he is looking back and still has some improvement. I am very sorry for some superficial medical skills, so I dare not assert it." He paused and said, "He wants to eat something, let him take it, but don't overdose. It's three parts poisonous, but it's not as good as food to replenish people. With physical strength, and with the gathering of sisters and sisters, he may have a good mood, and maybe it can add three parts of hope."
Xun Yu was ill for a long time and was a little versatile in medical science. After listening to what the doctor said, he knew that the situation was not optimistic. He thanked the doctor and stood in the corridor for a while, rubbed his face and squeezed out a three-point smile, and then returned to the house. Liu He prepared some meat porridge and was feeding the emperor. The emperor was joking with Liu He while eating, with a relaxed expression. Seeing Xun Yu coming in, he just looked at Xun Yu quietly and asked Xun Yu to sit down and eat some.
"My sister's craftsmanship has improved greatly, so I should try it."
Xun Yu responded and sat down aside. Yue Wu served a bowl of porridge and handed it to Xun Yu. Xun Yu took it and ate it bit by bit, but he couldn't taste what it felt. Seeing the emperor chatting with Liu He, he suddenly had a strange feeling. The emperor in front of him was very relaxed, not only not like a seriously injured patient, but also like an emperor who was responsible for the great responsibility of rejuvenation. He had been with the emperor for several years and had never seen the emperor so free and easy.
Could it be that he knew that he had not much Yu Ri? Xun Yu suddenly had an idea, and was shocked by himself. He subconsciously shook his head, trying to throw out this terrible thought. The emperor could see clearly, but he didn't say anything. He continued to joke with Liu He and told a few jokes, which made Liu He burst into tears and hit him gently.
The emperor ate a large bowl of meat porridge and became more energetic. Liu He felt much more relieved and ordered people to cook tea, and Xun Yu and the emperor were alone.
The room was quiet, Xun Yu sat on the side of the emperor's bed and looked at the emperor quietly. The smile on the emperor's face quickly dissipated, and his face became redder and redder. He squeezed his eyes hard and held him up and smiled twice. "Lingjun, what do doctors say? How many days can I live?"
Xun Yu said: "It depends on whether Your Majesty wants to live. If Your Majesty doesn't want to live, even if Bian Que is reborn, it will be difficult to save the person who is dead."
"Really, my heart is dead?"
"I just don't understand why Your Majesty has escaped, but he insists on turning around and falling into the trap."
"Lingjun, I am no longer the emperor." The emperor raised his eyelids, looked at Xun Yu, and squeezed his eyes hard again to keep himself awake. "I have already drafted an edict to give King Chen's favor, Sun Rui, General of the Craft and Cavalry, Huangfu Jianshou, and Secretary Ling Liu Ye as the ministers of the regents, and pass on the throne to the eldest son of the emperor. If the emperor is willing to return to Chang'an, you are the Grand Tutor, and treat it as Zhao Yun to teach the new emperor together."
"What about your Majesty?"
The emperor was silent for a moment. "I heard the truth in the morning and died in the evening. Let the lord, death is not worthy of fear. I just want to die clearly and be ashamed of my heart."
