Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 354 Assassination of Liu Bang ([-])

Three days later, Lu Ze arrived in Xianyang smoothly, and before he could wash off the dust from his body, Lu Ze summoned all the Lu family's children at the Hussar General's Mansion in Lutai. There are more than 20 confidants of the Lu family, including Guo Meng and Zhu Zhen, and they are all senior generals in the army.

The Lu Group is not only the father and son of Lu Ze and Lu Tai, but also a large number of senior military generals. If Liu Bang dares to attack the Lu Group, these backbone forces will immediately rebel against the Han, and a civil war will not be possible. It was avoided, which is also a major reason why Liu Bang did not dare to kill the Lu Group.

In addition, Lu Ze has a deep relationship with important officials such as Xiao He, Xia Houying, Cao Shen, Guan Ying, etc. Back then, if Lu Gong hadn't paid for Liu Bang, Liu Bang would have no money to recruit soldiers, and Xiao He and the others would not follow Liu Bang, although Cao Can and Guan Ying are dead, Xiao He and Xia Houying are still alive.

If not, how could Liu Bang be merciful?One must know that this street rascal can even push his own son and daughter out of the car, and he can even eat his old father's human meat soup. How can such a black-bellied person care about the relationship between husband and wife or the relationship between monarch and minister?In his eyes, there is only interest!
However, it must be admitted that Liu Bang is still very good at disguising himself. He is essentially a ruthless and black-bellied person, but on the surface, he is a benevolent and generous Buddha. Knowing how to act, otherwise Xiao He, Zhou Bo, Lu Ze and the others would not be overwhelmed by it.

In the hall of General Hussar's Mansion, Lu Ze, Lu Shizhi, Lu Tai, Lu Chan, Lu Ze, Lu Lu and other Lu's children, as well as Fu Kuan and more than [-] confidant generals have all gathered, but Queen Lu Zhi But not in this list.

Lu Shizhi's eldest son, Lu Ze, quickly raised a question: "Uncle, why didn't aunt come?"

Lu Ze waved his hand, but did not answer Lu Ze's question. It was Lu Ze's decision not to let Lu Zhi participate in today's meeting. Participating in the meeting will definitely seriously affect the emotions of Lu's children, which is not conducive to Lu's making correct decisions.

Lu Shizhi said: "Brother, are you going back to Xianyang this time for the purpose of being crowned king?"

Without waiting for Lu Ze to answer, Lu Chan said, "In my child's opinion, father should have been crowned king a long time ago."

As soon as the words fell, more than [-] confidant generals such as Lu Ze, Lu Lu, and Fu Kuan agreed one after another. No matter in terms of seniority or military exploits, Lu Ze should have been crowned king long ago. When more than a dozen confidants and senior generals mentioned this incident, they were all filled with righteous indignation and emotional.

Lu Ze sighed, and asked Lu Tai, "Tai'er, what's your opinion?"

Lu Tai clasped his hands together, and replied proudly: "The child listens to the father. If the father wants to be the king, then he will ask for it. If the father says he does not want to be the king, then he will not be the king!"

Lu Ze's hanging heart fell to the ground. Before coming to Xianyang, what he was most worried about was that Lu Tai was young and vigorous, and he was bewitched by Lu Pheasant and turned against him. Now it seems that Lu Tai still knows how to advance and retreat. The Lu family is in charge of Taiwan, even if he, Lu Ze, dies, the Lu family must not be defeated within two generations, and it may be even more prosperous, it is unknown.

At that moment Lu Ze sighed and said, "King Feng, it's a disaster rather than a blessing for my Lu family."

Lu Shizhi was puzzled and said: "Brother, being a king is a supreme honor, how can it be called a disaster?"

Lu Ze sighed: "It's an honor to seal the king and split the country, but have you thought about the consequences?"

After saying this, Lu Ze said again: "If the king is here, my Lu family and the big man can still live in peace, but the king is old. Once the king is gone, can the new king maintain goodwill with my Lu family? The county is located in the land of the Four Wars, with Chu in the south, Qi in the east, and Han and Zhao in the north, if we continue to fight against the great Han, we will be in trouble!"

Zhu Lu and his confidants and senior generals were all silent, they had to admit that Lu Ze's worries were not unfounded.

After a pause, Lu Ze said solemnly again: "So, conferring the king and splitting the country will only make my Lu family suffer the fate of extermination. Only by serving the Han from generation to generation can the honor of my Lu family be preserved."

Lu Shizhi thought for a while, and then said: "But brother, have you ever thought about it? Due to my aunt, Mrs. Qi, Liu Ruyi and my Lu family have had deep grievances. Once Liu Ruyi succeeds to the throne, my Lu family will also suffer from family extinction. !"

Lu Ze said: "This brother has his own considerations, but you don't have to worry anymore."

Lu Ze is indeed thinking about this issue. The grievances between Lu Zhi and Mrs. Qi are already very deep, and even the entire Lu Group, Mrs. Qi, and Liu Ruyi cannot be kind. If the king dies, Liu Ruyi will really succeed. The throne, let Madam Qi become the Queen Mother of the Great Han Kingdom, then the Lu Group will definitely have difficulties.

Therefore, no matter what, Liu Ruyi cannot be allowed to take the position. This is the bottom line of the Lu Group.

However, if Liu Ruyi is not allowed to take over, then who should the Lu Group support to take over?Although Liu Ying is the descendant of Lu Zhi, but it seems that he will not have a good life for a few days. Therefore, the Lu Group must find a candidate to replace Liu Ying as soon as possible. The King of Han has eight sons. Apart from Liu Ying and Liu Ruyi, which son is the most suitable candidate? Woolen cloth?

Lu Ze has been thinking about this issue since he left Luoyang.

However, Lu Ze has always acted prudently. Before he finds a suitable candidate, he will never reveal to anyone. Even the second brother Lu Shizhi and the eldest son Lu Tai, Lu Ze also does not intend to reveal. Because this matter is very important, if the news is leaked, how do you know that it will not bring disaster to the rest of the king's sons?

In the northern suburbs of Xianyang, Green Willow Villa.

Few people know that such an inconspicuous villa is actually Wumuya's branch office in Xianyang, and Liu Zhuangzhu, a medical expert who usually smiles at everyone, is actually one of Wumuya's ten commanders!

Master Liu was practicing sword in the backyard, when a ebony dead soldier hurried over to report: "Commander, there is news from Ziling."

Master Liu put his sword back and stood still. Counting the time, it was almost time for a reply. Although the journey from Xianyang to Ziling was far away, it was believed that the pigeons flew extremely fast, and three days was enough time to fly back and forth.

After receiving the secret letter from the dead man, Liu Zhuang frowned after reading it.

The commander-in-chief has such a big heart that he wants to take the opportunity to assassinate Liu Bang, the king of Han?This is really not easy, you know, the veteran Xia Houying will not leave Liu Bang for half a step, and Li Ji, Xia Houzao and other old guards will often guard Liu Bang's side, the most difficult thing is that Liu Bang has become close to Liu Bang Liu Bi of the bodyguard!
Liu Bi is a fierce general second only to Zhou Guanfu. If he wants to assassinate Liu Bang, he must try to lure Liu Bi away!

The secret letter was burned to ashes by the fire, and the master Liu ordered the dead man: "Go, invite Mr. Gu and Mr. Yang over here immediately. The commander has urgent matters to discuss with them."

"Here!" The dead man gave a bow and went to accept his orders.

Changle Palace, Liu Ying's bedroom.

After leaving the door, Lu Ze sighed and said to Lu Pheasant: "As the saying goes, life and death are up to fate, and wealth is in the sky. This is Ying'er's life, and you are not too sad, Ah Chi."

"Brother." Lu Zhi said sadly, "God is not fair!"

Lu Ze was speechless, God is unfair?When will God be truly fair again?
After thinking about it, Lu Ze was a little worried and said: "Ah Chi, I know that you hate Madam Qi and Liu Ruyi to the bone, but you must stop messing around. Doing so will only annoy the King, and it will not help."

"Don't worry, brother, little sister knows what to do." Lu Zhi lowered his head, his tone was a bit cold.

Lu Ze sighed again, and said: "This incident of conferring the king made our Lu family very passive. Fortunately, the great king Renyi didn't kill our Lu family. The great king Renyi, we can't be ruthless, don't you, a pheasant! Forget, Liu Bang is your husband, but also the king of the Han Dynasty, the king is the sky, do you know that?"

Lu Zhi still lowered his head and remained silent.

Lu Ze said again: "Okay, Brother Wei is leaving first, and I will come to visit Ying'er in a few days."

"Respectfully send off brother." Lu Zhi slightly bent his knees, and when Lu Ze walked away, the cold expression on his face suddenly turned ferocious, and immediately ordered the accompanying female officer to say, "Prepare the car immediately, I am going to the Green Willow Villa. "

Green Willow Villa, the secret room in the backyard.

Master Liu is sitting opposite two old men. These two old men are the brains of Master Liu. Today's Wumuya has already become a huge intelligence agency. In addition to the master Liu, Mr. Yang There are think tanks like Mr. Gu and Mr. Gu, and there are also a large number of cold-blooded soldiers who are ready to sacrifice at any time.

Master Liu raised the secret letter in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "The commander-in-chief has issued the Ebony order!"

Mr. Yang and Mr. Gu's expression changed slightly, and Wumu ordered that there was no room for change.

Mr. Dang Yang said: "Liu Bang is on his way back to Xianyang, but there are imperial guards along the way, and there are strong generals like Liu Bi and Xia Houying guarding us. We have no chance."

Mr. Gu also said: "In the palace, Liu Bang is also guarded by many guards, so the chances are not great either!"

Master Liu also frowned and remained silent. It is indeed not easy to assassinate Liu Bang, and even mobilizing the army may not be successful. This is really not an ordinary difficulty, but what the commander said is right, this is probably the only chance to assassinate Liu Bang Wow, usually, the ebony warriors can't even get close to the wall garden of Weiyang Palace, but this time, someone took them into the palace.

Mr. Yang stroked his goatee, and suddenly said: "Commander, this old man has an immature idea."

Liu Zhuangzhu's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, and he said with a smile: "Mr.

Mr. Yang stuck out his right hand and stretched out three fingers, and said darkly: "If you want to kill Liu Bang, you must first meet three conditions. First, you must be in the palace; second, Liu Bi is not in front of Liu Bang. Three, our people have the opportunity to get close to Liu Bang, if one of these three conditions cannot be met, then the assassination will definitely fail!"
