Chapter 113 Blood Pack

"Gundog, I will report this matter to the emperor and punish you for the crime of disrespect for intentionally damaging the scepter."

He Miao, who was still frightened, said coldly and decided to kill the castrated dog no matter what after returning to Luoyang.

Immediately, He Miao took the rest of the people and walked away, leaving Zuo Feng, whose expression was constantly changing, in place.

Zuo Feng also knew that his move would cause great trouble.

Even if the scepter is not damaged, it only guarantees the survival of the nine tribes, but his life may not be safe.

Not to mention He Miao's attack and investigation afterwards, I am afraid that even Zhang Rang may not be able to spare him.

Thinking of the possible consequences, Zuo Feng didn't even care about Liu Bei's rude and offensive behavior just now, and planned to quickly return to Luoyang to report the matter to Zhang Rang.

Zuo Feng knew that only by taking a preemptive strike and letting Zhang Rang put all the blame on He Miao could he reverse the consequences of this incident and save his life.

Without Liu Bei present, the other soldiers did not dare to stop Zuo Feng. They could only let Zuo Feng hold the staff tightly and leave Wuxian with his entourage.

When Xiahou Bo hurriedly left the government office to find a doctor, he happened to see Xia Houlan walking towards the government office with a doctor.

Xiahou Bo was overjoyed when he saw this. He didn't care why Xia Houlan would appear here with a doctor by such a coincidence. Without any explanation, he quickly stepped forward and ordered his soldiers to pick up the doctor and rushed towards the government office.

"I'm sorry, my husband is injured. Please follow me quickly."

Xiahou Bo said something and quickly took the doctor back to the government office.

Liu Bei, who had just placed the seemingly unconscious Li Ji on the couch and had not had time to carefully wipe away the blood stains on Li Ji, was overjoyed when he saw the doctor's appearance and quickly asked the doctor to treat Li Ji.

Later, Liu Bei, Xia Houbo and the rest were all kicked out by the doctor on the grounds of "preventing wind evil from entering the body from the wound", and they were left to treat Li Ji alone in the room.

After a long time, under Liu Bei's anxious gaze, the door opened again, and the doctor, who seemed to be exhausted, walked through.

Liu Bei quickly stepped forward and asked. "How is Zikun?"

The doctor replied solemnly.

"That gentleman only had excessive bleeding and no vital injuries. I have applied a bandage to stop the bleeding. However, since the wound is on the head, it is not appropriate to use your brain or be overtired during this period. You need to rest for a while."

"And now that gentleman has woken up. If you have anything to do, you can come in and ask."

When Liu Bei heard this, he was overjoyed and said to Xiahou Bo. "Reward, big reward!"

Afterwards, Liu Bei rushed into the room impatiently, and Xiahou Bo who followed him took out a gold coin from his arms and handed it to the doctor's hand, and then said.

"Please don't blame me for being rude just now, and please stay in the government office for a while so that you can diagnose and treat my husband at any time."

The doctor quickly took the gold into his arms and said cheerfully.

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter."

When Xiahou Bo arranged for a servant to take the doctor down to rest, and then entered the room, he found that Liu Bei was already sitting next to the bed talking to Li Ji.

Li Ji's forehead was heavily bandaged, but his eyes were bright and energetic, and his energy and blood seemed to be pretty good, which made Xiahou Bo feel relieved.

"Zikun, you must not be impulsive next time. If something unexpected happens, how will you deal with it?"

Facing Liu Bei's seemingly nagging concern, Li Ji accepted them one by one, with a little fear in his heart.

Like He Miao, Li Ji also did not expect that Zuo Feng would actually hit someone with a staff. This behavior was comparable to the former Empress Dowager Wang Zhengjun who smashed the jade seal to the ground when Wang Mang asked for it. As for the degree of chipping.

The Huns did not dare to take the initiative to damage the scepter, but Zuo Feng was stunned to do it.

Are the four words "nonsense" so lethal?
  In this regard, Li Ji could only face it with an attitude of not understanding but respecting the incompleteness.

Fortunately, Li was basically prepared to be injured by Zuo Feng on some pretext, so he was prepared and held the staff with both arms in advance, instead of having to use his head to catch it.

As for the blood that looked scary, it was actually just blood bags that Li Ji had hidden on his body in advance.

As long as Li Ji was injured by Zuo Feng, who was the emperor's envoy, and the blame was not placed on Li Ji, then Li Ji would have sufficient excuse not to go to Beijing again without arousing any criticism or suspicion.

Whether it was because he needed to recover from his injuries or he was worried about being retaliated and persecuted by the Shi Changshi, this was an excuse that Li Ji could use to avoid going to the capital again, and no one could find fault with him.

Jia Xu's plan was to kill the emperor's envoys; Li Ji's plan was to use the emperor's envoys to hurt himself.

After a long time, when Liu Bei seemed tired of talking, Li Ji finally spoke.

"It's nothing serious for Ji. It's just that if we do this, I'm afraid we will be hated by the eunuchs. It will be difficult for Ji Yi to enter Luo as an official. He can only stay in Wu County and wait for the Lord's arrangements."

When Liu Bei, who had been unable to react for a long time, heard this, a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face, and it was an ecstasy that Liu Bei could not suppress even if he subconsciously wanted to suppress it. Previously, Liu Bei was entangled and melancholy about Li Ji's departure, which was a dilemma between loyalty and righteousness.

At this moment, even though Liu Bei shouldn't feel the slightest joy, as soon as he thought that Li Ji would continue to stay by his side to assist him, uncontrollable joy could not help but surge into his heart. However, the raised corners of his mouth could not be suppressed no matter what. Go down.

So that Liu Bei, in order to avoid losing his composure, reminded Li Ji to get more rest, and then he seemed to run away in a bit of embarrassment.

After Liu Bei left for a while, Jia Xu, who had been observing the development of the situation in the dark, walked in calmly. Looking at Li Ji's head that was covered in layers, he couldn't help but take a breath. ,road.

"Zikun, you are too cruel, you almost died, right?"

Li Ji raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.

Even Jia Xu couldn't see it, and it seemed that there was really no flaw. This made Li Ji feel relieved and turned around. "It's enough to cultivate for a while. During this period, I still need to ask Wen He to act as my agent for official duties."

Jia Xu nodded, vaguely feeling that something was not right, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't see it for a moment, so he changed his mind.

"But how did Zikun convince He Miao to cooperate with you to anger Zuo Feng?"

Li Ji glanced at the direction of the door. Jia Xu understood and walked over to close the door.

Li Ji just said in a low voice.

"In the final analysis, this matter is essentially a dispute between relatives and eunuchs. One must choose between the two. And with the character of the Lord, how can he be willing to rely on eunuchs to maintain his official status? In this case, naturally he can only choose his relatives .”

"As for convincing He Miao, the matter is also simple."

For Jia Xu, who was not good at talking, he asked with some interest.

"Simplicity comes from here? Then He Miaogui is a relative with overwhelming power, how can he be moved?"

Li Jishi replied calmly.

"Although He Miao's status is noble, there is always one thing that people often criticize, that is, both He Jin and He Miao's status are dependent on Queen He. He has no military merits and no political achievements to speak of."

"Therefore, in the court, they are naturally powerful. However, at the local level, He Jin and He Miao completely need to rely on the support of the aristocratic family to have a certain degree of influence."

"So, I only need to say one thing: If I enter the court and assist the general, I will be just a sideline officer and dispensable. If I stay in Jiangdong, I can spread the influence of the general south of the Yangtze River."

When Jia Xu heard this, he couldn't help but praise. "Wonderful! No wonder He Miao is willing to cooperate with Zikun like this."

"Furthermore, after receiving this unexpected blow, He Miao will be more convinced of my surrender, and will also greatly support the Lord's rule of Yangzhou in the future."

Li Ji said lightly and subconsciously reached out to touch the ball wrapped around his head.

Therefore, the reason why Li Ji deliberately acted miserable later was not only to deceive Zuo Feng, but also to show He Miao and make He Miao feel guilty.

It can be said that as long as Liu Bei continues to make progress in the future, Liu Bei's position in Yangzhou will be solid.

And when He Jin falls, troubled times will come, and He Jin will lose all value to Liu Bei.

"But it's really a blessing that Zikun was willing to sacrifice his life so that my lord could obtain the position of governor without having to attack the emperor's envoys and stay in Wu Commandery."

Jia Xu couldn't help but continue to sigh.

If it were Jia Xu, let alone whether Jia Xu could think of this method, even if he thought of it, Jia Xu would never pressure himself to win this opportunity.

"The duty of a minister is just to avoid putting the lord in a dilemma." Li Ji responded, not feeling proud about it.

In the final analysis, the reason why this matter was so successful was not only that Zuo Feng was better than Li Ji expected, but more importantly, ordinary people would never have imagined that there would be a "blood bag".

In this era when surgical procedures have not yet been promoted, and blood transfusions are not needed, "blood bags" can be regarded as a blind spot in thinking.

Therefore, let alone deceiving He Miao Zuofeng, even Jia Xu believed in it.

Jia Xu felt ashamed of Li Ji's sacrifice and said.

"After this incident, Zikun's reputation will definitely become more famous. The incident of 'The emperor wanted to invite him to the capital as an official, but Li Zikun sacrificed his body to block the staff' has become more fermented. Presumably, scholars all over the world who want to visit Zikun will also Even more ignorant of geometry.”

Li Ji replied with a smile. "This is an unexpected surprise. I hope it can attract some real talents to the Lord."

"In that case, let Zikun rest for a while first..."

Jia Xu looked at Li Ji who seemed to be quite weak even when he spoke, so he stopped bothering Li Ji and spoke.

"Next, I will also move a little bit to guide Zikun among the envoys sent by the important ministers and families."
