Spoiler History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 670: Killing the Tiger Nightmare Together
The emperor's question caused the courtyard to fall silent for a moment.

Xu Chu kept his back straight and looked around.

This was a small side courtyard, with seven or eight gray-haired pedantic ministers. The last guard that the prime minister had left to save the emperor's face only had a dozen people. Behind him was a group of five tiger guards, and his own strong body that had been praised several times by the prime minister. So he said very honestly:

"Your Majesty, this idea is a bit difficult."

Liu Xie nodded, and the cowardice on his face faded a lot unconsciously:

"But I think we should still try."

Something is not right! Xu Chu subconsciously wanted to draw his sword, but for some reason, the action that was extremely simple in the past was extremely difficult at this time. His strong arms had never felt so heavy before.

His body swayed, and Xu Chu fell to the ground involuntarily:
"Your Majesty...want to poison me?"

Even speaking is much more difficult than before.

Liu Xie on the opposite side was not much better, he also fell to the ground, but his face was filled with various expressions showing that he was well prepared:
"It's not poison. It's just something left behind by the ministers that Cao Cao had killed unjustly. It's called Ma Fei San."

Liu Xie no longer wasted his energy talking, but began to use his hands and feet to crawl towards Xu Chu.

At the side, the old ministers and guards who obeyed the emperor's orders used all kinds of things to tightly surround the five tiger guards, including their own bodies.

Liu Xie struggled to crawl forward and finally pulled out Xu Chu's sword, but he didn't even have the strength to lift the tip of the sword.

A fragrant breeze blew in his face, and Liu Xie knew who it was without even looking. He could no longer feel his hands, but he could see the sword being slowly raised and pointed at the throat, which had been the couple's common nightmare. The hand holding the hilt was his own, and wrapped around that hand was his wife's hand.

"Bohe."

Fu Shou slowly pressed the tip of the sword down and broke through the barrier:

"I'm here to help you."

"Someone is here to help Taizhong."

Dong Jue wiped his right hand, and a thin blade as long as an inch appeared in his hand. Then with just a few strokes, the roasted chicken and duck on the plate were divided into small portions along with the bones. Then, with just a flip of his hand, the thin blade disappeared.

Jia Xu nodded:
"Yizhou products are indeed exquisite and exquisite."

"I have heard that Guan Yu of Jingzhou now has a long-handled sword called the Crescent Blade, which is extremely sharp and can cut metal and iron like cutting mud. It seems to be true."

Dong Jue smiled, used his chopsticks to put the dishes on Jia Xu's plate, and said:

"Compared with my Jingzhou's powerful crossbows, they are all minor techniques."

After eating two bites of the food, Jia Xu nodded in conviction:

"That bulk crossbow is truly unheard of. Zhuge's talent is almost demonic."

"If we don't have this, it will take a lot of effort to settle the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Who doesn't know Jia Taizhong's plan? Being too cunning is close to being a demon."

Jia Xu burst into laughter, shook his head and sighed:
"Gong Xi's talent for speaking is almost magical. If your master had sent you to Jiangdong in the past, there would have been no worries."

At the same time, Xin Pi, who was in a state of confusion, also heard Wei Feng and the people around him laughing and sighing:
"With this thing to help, there is really no need to worry about punishing traitors."

So Xin Pi couldn't help but sigh again.

This morning he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion as usual. As one of the two chief secretaries, he had a lot of affairs to deal with every day, especially now that the Henei army was having difficulty breaking through the Mengjin Pass guarded by Huo Jun, and his daughter had previously gone to Shangdang where her husband's brother was, and had been caught in the war and there was no news.

Before much of the business was done, Wei Feng and others behind him came in with powerful crossbows.

When the Chief Clerk Wang Bi saw that the situation was not good, he died on the spot before he could say a word. Then the Attendant Geng Ji and the Minister of Justice Wei Huang filed in and took control of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xin Pi couldn't understand how the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion could bring in five powerful crossbows that were longer than their arms without his and Wang Bi's approval?
If it weren't for these five powerful crossbows, Wei Huang would never have been able to control the Prime Minister's Mansion so easily. But what's the use of this? The Prime Minister's Mansion is responsible for all the affairs of Yecheng, and the safety of Yecheng depends on the brave general Xu Chu. As long as he hears...

I heard...

Xin Pi looked at the scene in front of him. The faces and hands of the five tiger guards were covered in blood. There were dozens of corpses neatly placed beside them. Most of them were old ministers who were once laughed at by Wang Bi as pedantic, and there were also a few young imperial guards.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the corpse as strong as a bear in the distance. The corpse is extremely intact, and there is not even any sign of a fight. Only a bloody hole in the throat shows how this person died, and his face is still filled with fear and anxiety.

What was going on? It was as if the Tiger Maniac had died at the hands of a peerless swordsman. From beginning to end, the fierce general had no power to fight back.

Xin Pi looked at the thin emperor standing next to him with a sword, and then looked at the corpse whose arms were thicker than the emperor's thighs. For a moment, he wondered if he had hit his head when he got up today, and was he still dreaming?

Some people are confused, while others are particularly clear-headed.

"I congratulate Your Majesty on eliminating the treacherous villains and clearing the way for the emperor!"

Xin Pi recognized the person as soon as he lowered his head and looked at the back: the Minister of the Chancellery, Hua Xin.

The emperor holding the sword nodded slowly, and then Xin Pi saw the queen leaning against His Majesty's head and nodded, and then she said loudly:

"Minister Hua, please stand up. His Majesty knows that Hua Ziyu has a reputation for talent and ability, and he also hopes that you will serve the country and the people."

Then the Queen glanced to the left:
"Xi Lu framed Kong Beihai in the past, so he should be charged and detained for the time being."

It was his turn next. Without waiting for the queen to speak, Xin Pi took the initiative to step forward:
"Ye City is big enough that there should be a confinement room big enough to accommodate me."

This time, the queen put on an earnest look:
"Now the people of Yecheng are in a state of panic and uncertainty. We should ask Xin Changshi to calm the people down, so that Hebei can avoid disasters and chaos."

Xin Pi stood here, looking at the emperor's pleading expression and the queen's earnest look in the distance, and his brother Xin Ping's unwilling face passed by. He then sighed deeply and bowed to accept the order.

Dong Jue reached out his chopsticks to pick up another dish, and his expression showed a little worry:
"But even if Wei Sizhi is temporarily safe in the Prime Minister's Mansion and His Majesty has roughly controlled the Eight Palace Guards, there are still six armies outside Yecheng..."

Jia Xu wiped his mouth and looked at the half-eaten dish in front of him with regret:

"I'm old..."

Then he shook his head:
"Gong Xi thought it would be so easy for the army to enter the city?"

"This Ye City is not only owned by the Cao family, but also by the Zhen family, the Xun family, and the Sima family."

"Of course, there is also the Jin family controlled by your master, and... the Cui family of your old friend Zhuge Military Advisor."

Dong Jue grinned, thinking that if it weren't for this Jia Taizhong, all his plans would be in vain, but he still couldn't believe it:
"Zhen and Cao are not..."

Then Dong Jue saw Jia Taizhong looking at him with a look that was almost pity:
"Gong Xi really doesn't know how strong Uncle Liu is right now? Or does he think that all the big families are like elite soldiers, united as one?"

There was actually no expectation of an answer to this question. Jia Xu used his chopsticks to stir the plate twice, looking very conflicted, but finally put down his chopsticks:
"Although I have few friends now, fortunately the plan is safe and sound and nothing has changed..."

But before Jia Xu could finish his sigh, Dong Jue saw the doorman running over in a hurry:

"Mr. Jia, Mr. Jia! The two young masters of Cao are fighting each other outside the city, and the sound of killing is deafening!"

Then Dong Jue saw Jia Taizhong's body shake, and suddenly turned to him and asked:
"To whom did you give the record of Cao Zihuan's private purchase of sugarcane that Jin Yi sent me earlier?"

"The Grand Secretary told me to hand it over to Cao Zijian. I went to his house and watched as he was taken in by a middle-aged scholar."

After asking about his appearance, Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh:

"Yang Xiu, no wonder, no wonder."
