Chapter 2208: Interception at the palace gate, the situation is out of control
In the Chengdu Imperial Palace, in the meeting hall, Liu Bian sat on the dragon chair, and below were filled with civil and military ministers, all waiting for the arrival of Chengdu King Liu Yu.
"Your Majesty, the King of Chengdu has entered the palace and is now heading to the main hall."
"Um."
Liu Bian nodded lightly, with a smile on his face, and his heart was filled with anticipation and anxiety for Liu Yu's arrival.
He had never met this brother Wang, and all his knowledge of Liu Yu came from Da Sohe's intelligence. However, in terms of intelligence, this brother Wang was also a genius, with impeccable temperament and abilities.
Thinking of this, Liu Bian couldn't help but sigh. There are so many talented people, why is he the only one so ordinary?
No one is willing to be mediocre, and Liu Bian is the same, but compared with those geniuses, he is indeed too mediocre.
While Liu Bian was thinking wildly, he didn't notice a strange smile on Wu Yi's lips among the ministers below.
At this moment, a soldier broke in and shouted in panic: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The King of Chengdu and his party were intercepted and killed by Wu Ban, the palace gate guard, just after they entered the palace."
"What?"
Liu Bian was so shocked that he stood up directly, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Wu Ban is Wu Yi's younger brother, and Wu Yi is his confidant. The Wu family is also recognized as an imperial party.
If Liu Yu was really killed by Wu Ban, then in the eyes of outsiders, it would be him, the emperor, who wanted to kill Liu Yu.
"General Wu Yi, I need an explanation."
Liu Bian looked at Wu Yi with a ferocious expression. His ability was indeed mediocre, but he was not stupid. At this point, it was still hard to tell that Wu Yi and even the Wu family had already turned to Liu Ji.
No, maybe this was a trap from the beginning. Liu Ji deliberately snubbed Wu Yi so that Wu Yi could gain his trust. After all, he had no one available at that time, and he would definitely not miss the opportunity to recruit Wu Yi and the Wu family.
Thinking of this, Liu Bian's face turned pale. Sure enough, he was still too naive and couldn't defeat Liu Ji, an old fox.
Wu Yi raised his head to the sky and looked at Liu Bian indifferently. There was no trace of shame in his eyes, and he said calmly: "What do you mean by your Majesty's words? I, the Wu family, obey your Majesty, and my younger brother only obeys your orders."
Wow...
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the court was shocked.
hiss……
All the ministers took a breath and looked at Liu Bian sitting on the dragon throne with disbelief. They couldn't believe that this cowardly and incompetent puppet emperor, who had always had no independent opinions, dared to attack a hundred thousand troops outside the city. Intercept and kill Liu Yu? As expected, people cannot be judged by their appearance.
After noticing the gazes of the ministers, Liu Bian's face turned a little pale, but his heart was filled with a sense of powerlessness. He suddenly fell down on the dragon chair without saying a word.
Prince Shu's Mansion.
Chen Ping smiled calmly and said to Liu Ji: "Liu Bian thought Wu Yi was his, but he didn't know that Wu Yi was actually his lord's, and Wu Ban was Wu Yi's younger brother. If Wu Ban killed Liu Yu, The world will only think that Liu Bian killed Liu Yu to seize military power."
"Wonderful, seconds, the military counselor's trick of using a borrowed sword to kill is very powerful. It can not only get rid of Liu Yu, the great enemy, but also put all the blame on Liu Bian. Now Liu Bian can't wash away even if he jumps into the Yellow River." Liu Ji chuckled.
"After Liu Yu dies, the lord can step up and take charge of the overall situation, depose Liu Bian, and then push him out to calm the anger of Liu Yu's subordinates, so as to subdue Liu Yu's 100,000 troops, and then replace Liu Bian on the throne and proclaim the emperor ." Chen Ping said.
"This move by the military advisor achieves multiple things with one stone. It's high. It's really high. Ahem, cough, cough..."
Liu Ji was overjoyed. In his excitement, he started coughing again. He quickly calmed down and stopped talking.
Just then, a soldier came to report:
"Report... to the military advisor, something bad has happened. Although General Wu Ban ambushed Liu Yu, Liu Yu's bodyguard generals were too powerful. They only led hundreds of guards to protect Liu Yu and forcibly broke through Wu Ban. The general was surrounded by three thousand guards, and he even entered the battle formation of thousands of troops by himself and killed General Wu Ban."
"What?"
Liu Ji and Chen Ping both exclaimed, and then Liu Ji frowned, while Chen Ping sneered: "I wonder why Liu Yu dared to enter the city alone. It turns out that he can become a fierce general with just one person, but based on this If you want to survive, you will underestimate me, Chen Ping."
Chen Ping turned around, looked away from Wang Yue, looked at Shennong who was sent by the farmer to help, and said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, Wang Yue is not suitable to take action, so I will leave it to you, sir."
If Wang Yue takes action, even if he is masked and his identity is hidden, his identity may be exposed due to his body and moves. Isn't this the same as telling others that it was Liu Ji who took action?
To be cautious, Chen Ping would seek the far side rather than let Wang Yue take action. Instead, he asked Shennong to kill Liu Yu.
Shen Nong frowned and stared at Chen Ping for a few seconds, then said, "I won't do this next time."
"Thank you sir for your help." Chen Ping said happily.
Shennong was not only the next leader of the farm, but he was also a master at the Grand Master level. If he took action, Chen Ping felt that he would be able to succeed immediately, but the situation once again exceeded Chen Ping's expectations.
"Report... to the military advisor, Mr. Jiang, a farmer, was stopped by a mysterious grand master before he entered the palace."
"What?"
Chen Ping's face turned ugly, and the feeling of being plotted in his heart became stronger. He looked at Wang Yue and said, "Mr. Wang Yue, you can go too. Don't bring the Chengying Sword. Remember, you must not reveal your identity."
"promise."
Looking at Wang Yue's leaving figure, Chen Ping's heart not only did not calm down, but became more and more uneasy. As he expected, the news came not long after that Wang Yue was blocked by another mysterious grand master. .
"Liu Yu could actually ask two great masters to protect him?"
Chen Ping's eyes were full of shock, and he increasingly felt that the situation in Chengdu was getting out of control.
Outside the palace, four great masters were fighting fiercely.
Shennong and the opponent were evenly matched, while Wang Yue was gradually suppressed by the opponent.
While Shennong was fighting fiercely with the opponent, he asked: "Who are you?"
The other party did not answer directly, but just said: "Amitabha."
"You are a Buddhist."
Shennong's face suddenly became ugly. At first, he thought that the other party was sent by the Qin army to deliberately sabotage Shu's plan to annex Liu Yu in order to cause trouble to Shu. He never expected that the Buddhists would He joined in and supported Liu Yu, who had no advantage at first glance.
In the palace hall, Liu Bian was like a puddle of mud, slumped on the dragon chair, his eyes full of gloom, but he didn't expect a shout to suddenly come from below.
"Your Majesty, Liu Yu, King of Chengdu, is here to see you."
Wow...
All the civil and military officials in the court exploded, and they all turned around in unison and looked at Liu Yu, who was wearing a suit of blood armor, slightly embarrassed, but standing proudly at the entrance of the hall.
