I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 424 Huo Guang is dead! !The clothes are not covering the body, the head is hanging in a different place on a dead tree, and the whole family is dead!
"My son, I thanked my father for the advice. After I get to the Xiongnu, I will definitely follow my father's lead and never do anything rebellious again!" Huo Yu saluted on his horse.

"Yeah." Huo Guang replied coldly.

"Father, I'd better set off quickly and go to the transfer house in front to rest for a few hours, and then we'll make further plans!"

"What identity is forged?"

"My father is the Commander-in-Chief of the Wuyuan County Duwei Mansion. Huo Shan and I are my father's right-hand men, and my mother is naturally my father's wife."

"It's rare to see a Duwei Fu Si Zhi in his 50s. Quan should be aware of what's going on." Huo Guang laughed at himself.

"This is natural, and you can also make plans for the future!"

"Ah."

Without another word, Huo Yu and the others set off again and continued walking forward.

After a moment of rest and unloading the burdens in their hearts, the steps of both horses and humans became much lighter and they walked faster than before.

Not long after, a sudden bright light appeared dozens of feet ahead.

They were finally out of this depressing forest, which made them even more relieved.

But soon, before they could catch their breath, Huo Yu and others' hearts sank to the bottom again!

On the official road ahead, six or seven knights emerged from the woods, blocking the official road like ghosts.

Almost at the same time, there was a sound from behind the woods on both sides, and then forty or fifty knights rushed out of the darkness.

Before Huo Yu and others could think of a way to deal with it, they were tightly surrounded by these knights in white cloaks on the official road.

For a moment, the originally soft light red moonlight suddenly became bloody and ferocious.

Maybe it was the sound of wind that covered up the sound of horses' hooves, maybe Huo Yu and others were too exhausted to hear the sound, maybe it was the white cloaks of these knights that hid their figures.

In short, neither Huo Yu nor Huo Shan, the veteran generals who had been on the battlefield, nor Huo Guang, the cautious center of the court, nor Huo Xian, the meticulous Huo Xian, noticed anything before their retreat was blocked.

Although I am aware of it now, there is no way out.

Huo Yu and Huo Shan immediately pulled out the swords from their waists and held them at their sides, but their hands were frozen for a long time and they almost couldn't hold them.

Huo Xian, on the other hand, looked at the knights around him with half of their faces covered in horror, and subconsciously rode his horse to hide beside Huo Guang.

But how could Huo Guang be able to protect her?It was already a remarkable thing that he could still ride the horse upright at this time.

Silence, dead silence.

The water vapor exhaled by dozens of people and horses quickly condensed into white mist, giving the lifeless woods a little more fairy air.

Except for the few knights directly in front, the rest of the knights were very close to Huo Yu and others, only two or three feet away.

They formed a tight circle into two layers: the knights in the inner circle held ring-headed knives, and the knights in the outer circle held crossbows.

The knife had naturally been sharpened a long time ago, and it had been specially sharpened tonight. Under the moonlight, it glowed with a red light.

The crossbow was already loaded with arrows and was raised flat, facing Huo Yu and the others with a chilling air.

Huo Yu squinted his eyes and glanced back and forth on the knights, trying to find some emblems that could prove their identities.

But unfortunately, although the opponent is also wearing armor, this armor is not a common look in the military.

There are no signs of identity.

What made Huo Yu even more confused was that there were some differences between the horses and saddles of these knights.

Although the war horse was not wearing armor, there was a piece of iron padded on the horse's paw, which Huo Yu had never seen before.

As for the saddle, a pair of semicircular iron rings were hung at the bottom of both sides. The knights put their feet in them, but they didn't know what they did.

But judging from the details, these knights don't look like Han troops, but rather look like Huns.

Could it be that the Huns came to greet them outside Chang'an City?

Huo Yu's whimsical thoughts were quickly extinguished by himself.

This place is thousands of miles away from the Huns, and no matter how courageous the Huns are, it is impossible to come here.

There are actually Southern Huns who surrendered in the Han Dynasty in the early years, but they are not near Chang'an City, and they dare not travel in groups like this.

At this point, Huo Yu no longer needed to guess.

Because there is only one possibility left, that is, these knights were sent by the emperor to rob and kill them!
Huo Yu thoroughly figured out all the joints involved.

He did not expect that the emperor who always wanted to be a benevolent emperor would be so inconsistent on the outside and sinister at heart.

I'm afraid that the emperor had already started digging this trap the moment he and Huo Xian were returned to Huo's house, but Huo Yu didn't notice it and jumped directly.

The emperor is indeed vicious!

He always pretends to be a benevolent king, but in fact he is an extremely sinister tyrant!

Huo Yu was very angry, and the hand holding the sword tightened tighter and tighter, wishing he could rush back to Chang'an at this moment.

He hacked all the way from Hengmen to Weiyang Palace, and then chopped off the head of the hypocritical emperor.

However, he could only think about it.

At this time, the knights blocking the official road ahead rode up to Huo Yu and others.

The leader also covered his face with a cloth, but judging from his body shape, he was a tall, thin and upright young man.

Huo Yu, who was angry and anxious, was in a daze for a while. At first glance, he recognized the other person as the crazy emperor, and then he saw that this person seemed to be thinner.

However, Huo Yu still squeezed out two words through his teeth: "Hunjun!"

The leading knight was not angered, but responded to Huo Yu's rage with silence.

"Didn't that hypocritical tyrant say in front of so many people that he wanted to let us leave Chang'an? Why did he rob and kill us here again!?"

"If the majestic Emperor of Han goes back on his promise and lacks any majesty as an emperor, wouldn't it make the world laugh at him!"

"The ancestors of the Han Dynasty were all wise kings. Isn't this moody and crazy magistrate afraid of bringing shame to the Liu family temple!?"

Huo Yu cursed loudly, but in this lifeless forest, his voice was exceptionally thin, and even revealed a hint of fear.

Just when he was scolding the most, he inadvertently glanced at Huo Shan beside him.

The latter naturally understood immediately and suddenly urged his horse to rush towards the leading knight, hoping to capture the thief first.

"drive!"

"Puff puff!"

Before Huo Shan finished shouting the word "drive", more than ten crossbow arrows were fired from all directions.

With the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh, all the iron arrows hit Huo Shan and his horse. The most deadly arrow hit Huo Shan's neck.

The high-speed flying prismatic arrows slit his arteries, and blood spurted out immediately.

Immediately, Huo Shan, including his men and horses, collapsed on the official road.

When Huo Shan rolled over, the warm and smelly blood spurted out happened to be sprinkled on Huo Yu's face.
The latter immediately retreated as if being scalded by boiling water, almost colliding with Huo Xian and Huo Guang behind him.Huo Shan fell to the ground and was pinned down by the war horse. His eyes popped out in despair. Blood gradually flowed to the ground and mingled with the melted snow on the ground.

This blood not only dyed the snow red, but also dyed the moon in the sky red.

The originally scarlet moonlight became even redder at this moment.

The last member of the Huo family also died, and he died in a very useless way. Huo Shan probably never thought that he died worthless.

Fortunately, Huo Yun, who died as grievously as he did, did not go too far on the road to hell. Now that he is dead, he can still catch up and be a companion together.

"Aren't you afraid that the county magistrate will be accused of being dishonest!?"

"You..." Huo Yu wanted to scold him again, but Huo Guang's hand patted him gently on the shoulder.

"Son, accept your fate. The county magistrate is not wrong. The fault is that you and I, father and son, were deceived by the magistrate."

"Father..." Huo Yu looked back at Huo Guang. He was choked up, not because Huo Guang stopped him, but because Huo Guang called him "son" again.

For some reason, Huo Yu's eye circles turned red all of a sudden.It has been many years since his father called him that.

So much so that Huo Yu felt jealous in his heart since he was a child that Huo Guang only regarded the emperor as his son and had already forgotten his biological son.

And everything he did, whether it was to establish an alliance with Zuo Jun, or to encourage Fan Mingyou to rebel, or to flee north with Huo Guang... was it not to make Huo Guang recognize him.

Now this "son" made Huo Yu's resentment and anger disappear a lot.

"Son, let's stop here. I'm tired of being a father."

"This is all a trick by the county magistrate. Letting you and your mother come back is not because he is kind, but because he wants to trick you into kidnapping me and using up my last remaining role..."

"Not only does he want to use tonight's events to wipe out the dead soldiers you raised in Chang'an; he also wants me to surrender to the Huns in front of the people and destroy his last reputation."

"Now that I and the Huo family have been ruined, how can he really let me go if only this life is left to threaten him?"

"By letting us out of the city, he has achieved his reputation of not killing heroes. Now that we are in this wilderness, it is time to take our lives."

"Husband!" Huo Xian hugged Huo Guang on the horse and kept crying. This time she really cried. She had no intention of pretending to be strong anymore.

"I waited too long to look at the county magistrate by mistake, and I deserve to be in trouble. The county magistrate is cruel and vicious. He wants to chew us up and swallow the bones and dregs."

"Go to death calmly."

After Huo Guang finished speaking, he patted Huo Yu on the shoulder.

Huo Yu wiped his face, nodded, and looked at the leading knight again.

If you can't kill the emperor, then kill the people he sends, one by one!
"Kill!" Huo Yu shouted and rushed towards the knight.

This time, no one fired an arrow, but the knight also rushed over at the same time.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were intertwined.

Huo Yu swung his sword to chop the opponent's neck, but he suddenly found that the opponent's body suddenly lifted up from the saddle... and then flexibly turned sideways to avoid his sword.

Impossible. How can the movement be so flexible on horseback?

Huo Yu didn't have a chance to think about it. The ring-headed knife in the hand of the knight Lunyuan, who was already a height above him, struck Huo Yu's neck directly.

With great force, he cut off Huo Yu's head forcefully!
Impossible, how can you have such strength when it's bumping right away?
Huo Yu's head fell down with these two questions. The moment his head hit the ground, he saw the two iron rings next to the opponent's saddle.

The opponent's feet are stepping on it!

This thing was originally used like this. No wonder it can stand up on a horse...

Huo Yu's head fell to the ground with this last bit of relief, his eyes widened and no longer alive.

"Ah!" Huo Xian, who had been frightened for a long time, finally went crazy when he saw Huo Yu's head missing!
After screaming, she cried and laughed immediately, looking like a crazy woman!

Huo Guang used his last strength to hold her in his arms to prevent her from falling off the horse.

At this time, Huo Guang looked at the knight who killed his son and felt that he looked familiar and looked a bit like the emperor.

"Who are you? Can you let me die clearly?"

The knight did not hesitate and pulled off the cloth covering his face.

"It's actually you?" Huo Guang asked in surprise.

It turned out that this person was Han De.

"The county magistrate said that he has to sit in Chang'an and cannot personally send the general to Huangquan to apologize to Emperor Xiaozhao..."

"Fortunately, the general is somewhat similar in appearance to the county magistrate, so the county magistrate asked the general to do it for him. It can be considered that he did it himself."

"The county magistrate can only take the throne after Emperor Xiaozhao dies. Does he really hate me so much?"

"The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the magistrate's heart is full of big men, and there is no place for a general."

"I admire the county magistrate for killing people and killing people," Huo Guang said calmly.

Hande did not take action immediately, but waved his hand to let the knights behind him reveal their true faces.

"General, do you know them?"

"I don't recognize it."

"They are the soldiers under Lingwu County Magistrate Liang Yannian. All the Paoze brothers died at the hands of your son-in-law Fan Mingyou. The county magistrate asked them to take revenge!"

Huo Guang smiled sadly and shook his head. The emperor really wanted to make the best use of everything.

"The county magistrate is thoughtful and sinister. He will surely rival Emperor Xiaowu one day."

"General, please go on your way!"

After Han De finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand. The knight from Lingwu galloped up angrily and arrived in front of Huo Guang and Huo Xian in the blink of an eye.

The Lingwu knights didn't hesitate at all. Six or seven ring-headed knives greeted them at the same time. Huo Guang and the two men only had time to let out a muffled groan before their faces were chopped off completely. They fell to the ground, and there was no movement at all.

Huo Guang is finally dead!

Hande rode his horse to the corpse, and after making sure that the other party was no longer alive, he said: "Search the money on them, strip off their clothes and pants, then cut off their heads and limbs, hang them all on the tree, and pretend to be bandits." It looks like the gangsters are robbing money, and someone will naturally find out about it tomorrow."

"only!"

"Today's events must not be spread to outsiders, otherwise they will be killed and the clan will be destroyed!"

"only!"

The knight immediately dismounted, there was another flash of swords, and blood mist everywhere...

The moon in the sky was stained even redder by the floating blood. It hung quietly in the dark blue sky, like the eyes of a giant beast, staring at the land of Sanfu.

At this time, the snow began to fall again, but no matter how hard it fell, I'm afraid it couldn't cover up the bloody smell tonight.
