Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 48: The Death of Jian Shuo

He Jin was also very happy when he saw the ministers kneeling in front of him. Although some tricks were used to make some people unconvinced, as long as they agree now, that is enough.

What's more, it is justifiable to enshrine Prince Bian as the new emperor. The Lingdi died suddenly and did not establish the position of heir. As the eldest son, Liu Bian inherited the throne, which is the most normal thing.

"Everyone, get up, the new emperor is young, and I hope you can support him a lot!" He Jin said with a smile on his face.

The ministers didn't hesitate, and stood up from the ground one after another. Although they felt forced, the matter was basically a foregone conclusion now. Since they couldn't resist, they could only accept this result.

"Everyone, after eradicating the rebels, how about setting up a new monarch and burying the former emperor?" He Jin said with a smile.

"Follow the orders of the great general!" The ministers did not hesitate at all, and even setting up a new emperor was so hasty, it was no different.

At this time, a maid came in from the outside and said: "I have seen the general, the empress called the general to discuss something!"

Empress He looking for him?Although He Jin was a little puzzled, he didn't refuse, saying: "You wait here, I'll come back as soon as I go!"

After finishing speaking, he followed the maid to Empress He's bedroom.

……

In other words, after Jian Shuo led more than ten people escaped from Emperor Ling's bedroom, he fled in a panic. He knew that Yuan Shao and He Jin would not let him go, so he had to join the rest of the ten servants. The military power of the guards, the rest of the ten permanent servants also have other powers, and only by gathering together can they win a way out.

In a hurry, he fled all the way to the imperial garden with more than ten people, and saw Guo Sheng, the general servant, leading more than a hundred soldiers, rushing towards him.

Overjoyed, he said: "Guo Sheng, save me quickly, His Majesty has already died suddenly, He Jin asked Yuan Shao to lead five thousand Imperial Forest Army into the palace!"

Zhong Chang Shi didn't answer, he quickened his pace and led more than a hundred soldiers to approach Jian Shuo.

Jian Shuo, who was overwhelmed with surprise, did not notice that Guo Sheng, who was coming towards him, had an unknown smile on his mouth, and the whole group of people put their hands on their sabers.

"Guo Sheng, follow me to find the rest of the people and call all the imperial guards, otherwise..., you..., you..., puff~~!"

Jian Shuo, who hadn't finished speaking, spat out blood, and pointed at Guo Sheng standing in front of him with trembling fingers.

When Jian Shuo was talking and looking back, Guo Sheng pulled out his saber unexpectedly, stabbed Jian Shuo in the stomach, and said in a low voice, "All this is your plan alone, and it has nothing to do with us. If you die, we will all die." There is a way to survive, if you don’t die, we will all die!”

After finishing speaking, Guo Sheng turned his right hand, driving the saber in his hand, and ended Jian Shuo's life. With a push of his left hand, Jian Shuo's body fell backward.

Jian Shuo also showed remorse on his face. He also understood that he was being used. If the matter was successful, he would not have to die.

"Jian Shuo is dead, why don't you surrender?" Guo Sheng shouted, holding a bloody saber.

The hundreds of soldiers behind him all drew out their sabers and pointed at the dozen or so people who escaped with Jian Shuo. It was obvious that once someone said no, they would draw out their sabers and go forward to kill them.

Dang Clang~~
The dozen or so people who escaped dropped their weapons one after another. After all, Jian Shuo was already dead, so there was no need to die for a dead person.

"Where is Jian Shuo, the traitor!" A loud shout came.

Guo Sheng saw Yuan Shao leading hundreds of Yulin troops in front of him.

"Huh, Guo Sheng? Jian Shuo is dead? Could it be that you are killing each other?"

Yuan Shao, who was chasing up, also found that something was wrong with the situation in front of him. Looking at Jian Shuo who was lying on the ground, it was obvious that Guo Sheng killed him with a knife.

Guo Sheng saw Yuan Shao, without any hesitation, dropped the saber that was still dripping blood in his hand, knelt down and said: "General Yuan Mingjian, this matter is all done by Jian Shuo alone, and it has nothing to do with us. Shuo committed treasonous things, so he led his men to kill him!"

The hundred or so people who followed Guo Sheng also threw down their weapons and bowed down; the same was true for the dozen or so people who escaped.

Hearing this, Yuan Shaocai didn't believe that Guo Sheng would be so kind, and no one in the world knew that the ten servants wore the same pair of pants. If no one else participated, he didn't believe that Jian Shuo would plan like this!

"Whether I'm guilty or not, I'll have to be judged by the general! Come, Guo Sheng will tie me up and take Jian Shuo's body away with me!" Yuan Shao shouted.

"promise!"

Four people came out of the hundreds of imperial forest troops, two went to tie up Guo Sheng, and two went to drag Jian Shuo's body.

"The rest follow me to arrest the rest of the rebellious party!" Yuan Shao saw that Guo Shengan was tied up peacefully, so he stayed with a hundred people to guard the surrendered troops, and led the rest to continue looking for the rest of the ten permanent attendants. He did not forget My own purpose is to wipe out the ten permanent servants in one go.

Seeing Yuan Shao leading the rest of the people away, Guo Sheng had no intention of resisting, and let the two imperial guards tie him up tightly.

The more than a hundred soldiers he brought, because they had been ordered in advance, did not take any action, and stayed quietly; the other dozen or so did not dare to take any action.

Everything had already been negotiated. When Yuan Shao led the five thousand Imperial Forest Army into the palace, he and Zhang Rang knew that the plan was over this time, so they asked him to lead the troops to kill Jian Shuo. So he rushed to Queen He's bedroom to seek shelter.

Moreover, Zhang Rang had told him that if he killed Jian Shuo, anyone who met He Jin would surrender directly, and he could not do anything radical and become a prisoner first.

Once Queen He can be persuaded to protect them, they will all be able to survive, regain their freedom, and have a chance to fight back.

Thinking of this, Guo Sheng's mood also improved a lot. Everything is for survival, but the idiot Jian Shuo died. Compared with it, suffering a little bit is not a big deal.

Guo Sheng, who was tied up tightly, was escorted by two imperial guards to the Emperor Ling's bedroom, and the hundreds of surrendered troops were also escorted there, only the dead Jian Shuo was dragged across the ground. of blood.

……

Zhang Rang waited for a long time but did not hear the news of He entering the palace, so he felt that the matter might have been exposed, so he hurriedly discussed with Guo Sheng to resolve this crisis.

After discussing the countermeasures, they heard the news that He Jin asked Yuan Shao to lead his troops into the palace. Without any hesitation, he asked Guo Sheng to lead some cronies to kill Jian Shuo. Hands, or all of them will die.

He himself hurriedly ran to Empress He's palace, which was also part of their plan.
