Looking suddenly, Zhao Yun's pupils shrank slightly. The fragment on the red dragon's claw had disappeared. It was held in Zhang Chun's hand. Zhang Chun seemed to smile strangely because of this.

There is still a chance to make amends.

Zhao Yun immediately calmed down, thrust his body forward, and knocked Zhang Chun to the ground with an elbow, and the fragments in his hand flew into the air.

Just as Zhao Yun was about to seize it, something strange happened.

The illusory red dragon in the sky roared towards the sky, and its body began to shake violently.

It was like a house that had lost its foundation. After the red dragon lost a piece, the entire structure became unstable and gradually fell apart.

The entire dragon's body exploded and shattered, and the fragments that made up its structure all flew towards the surrounding sky.

Seeing that all the fragments were about to fly towards Hebei and disappear without a trace, Liu Zhaoqing suddenly felt an inexplicable attraction coming from the sky.

At first glance, a piece of debris that was supposed to fly far away suddenly stopped in the air, then reversed at a magical angle and rushed directly towards the banquet below.

Everyone was stunned again, but soon, all the princes of Hebei, including Han Fu, showed joy on their faces.

This is like a pie falling from the sky, no, it's like the throne falling from the sky, how can everyone not be excited.

"The artifact! The artifact is flying over here!"

"Hurry! Whoever grabs the divine weapon can become the emperor!!"

"Zhang He and Gao Lan! Go and seize the divine weapon quickly!!"

……

At this time, even Jizhou Mu Han Fu could no longer bear it and directly ordered his two generals to help him grab the artifact fragments.

At this time, all the princes were so excited by the flying divine weapon that their eyes turned red. Even if there were calm people like Shen Pei, he would not be able to persuade them at all.

The red fragments fell towards the banquet like meteors, and the first one closest to it, the Bingzhou governor, showed ecstasy on his face.

He was about to catch the fragment with his hand, but in an instant, the fragment passed through his palm, leaving a bloody hole.

But even so, it did not stop everyone.

Since they can't catch it with their hands, they must have other ways.

"Use a knife!"

Someone shouted, and the fragments flew parallel to the banquet hall. The second person closest to it happened to be carrying a sword, and he drew out his sword to block the fragments.

But the fragments hit the blade like an arrow piercing paper, and the blade shattered instantly, and the prefect's body was also pierced by the fragments.

At this time, people finally started to get scared again.

This just gave Zhang He and Gao Lan an opportunity. They had both seen the power of the fragments just now and did not dare to underestimate it.

The two men held ordinary long swords, and immediately poured their God-given strength into them, and then used both swords alternately to block the flying debris.

"Zheng!!"

An extremely piercing sound caused everyone around to become deaf for a moment.

The fragments should have been pierced through thin paper again, but with the combined divine power of Zhang He and Gao Lan on the long swords, the fragments were actually blocked.

"Got it!" Han Fu was immediately delighted when he saw this.

But this expression of joy only lasted less than half a breath.

The next moment, the fragment actually emitted a dazzling red light, and then Zhang He and Gao Lan felt a force far beyond that of a genius coming from the long swords in their hands.

"Crack!"

The stiff steel knife actually made a sound like wood breaking. To the surprise of Zhang He and Gao Lan, the fragments directly broke the two overlapping swords and then went towards Han Fu.

Han Fu, who had never expected that his two generals could not even catch a single fragment, stood there in a daze.

The red fragments attacked him like a ghost demanding his life. Just as Han Fu was feeling regretful and closing his eyes in fear, a whistling sound came from his ears.

The red fragments did not penetrate his body, but simply passed by his side.

At this point, everyone can clearly see the direction in which the fragment path will eventually point.

"Yes! It's heading towards Marquis Changping!"

Everyone was surprised to find that the fragment was actually heading towards Liu Zhaoqing.

With the power of the fragments just now, neither Zhang He nor Gao Lan could defeat them. If Liu Zhaoqing, who was not a genius, was hit by the fragments, he would definitely die suddenly.

"Zhao Qing!"

"Lord!"

Liu Bei, Zhang Liao and others also realized this at the same time.

But Liu Zhaoqing seemed to be stunned, standing there motionless.

At this time, the Hebei princes looked uncertain when they saw this. Liu Zhaoqing was a person with conflicting interests to them.

If Liu Zhaoqing died here... it would definitely be more beneficial than harmful for them to seize Youzhou.

But there are also people like Liu Yu and Liu He who just hope that Liu Zhaoqing can react quickly. Youzhou cannot lose Liu Zhaoqing, and he absolutely cannot be killed inexplicably here by this fragment.

Everyone present looked at Liu Zhaoqing with different emotions in their hearts.

But at this moment, Liu Zhaoqing had only one thought in his mind - peace, so much so that Liu Zhaoqing felt that he only needed to stretch out his finger... to stop the Chixiao fragments that were more powerful than the Tianzi Renjie.

And he did just that.

Liu Zhaoqing raised his right hand and extended his index finger.

The fragments were piercing towards him at a fearless speed without any slowdown, and Liu Zhaoqing was about to be pierced through the chest by the fragments.

But when the fragments were less than a finger's distance away from Liu Zhaoqing's index finger, they stopped in an almost impossible state.

The arrow-like fragment flashed red light and hovered just in front of Liu Zhaoqing's index finger.

And when Liu Zhaoqing slowly touched the fragments with his index finger.

A red light emanated from his body, which was far more powerful than that of a great man.

An incomparably noble aura spread out from Liu Zhaoqing like a tsunami.

After this breath poured into his body, Zhang Liao, who was closest to him, didn't know why, but he subconsciously knelt down on the ground.

Not only her, but also Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Gongsun Zan, even Liu Yu, Liu He and the princes of Hebei, could not control their knees and knelt on the ground one after another.

With the sound of splashing, everyone was horrified. They were shocked by one fact.

Liu Zhaoqing, actually got the fragment just like that? !

That means... he can become emperor immediately.

And could the rumored "Son of Hebei" be...Liu Zhaoqing, Marquis of Changping? !

Chapter 201 Who is the one? 6.5K

The governor's mansion under the night sky looked as if it had experienced a natural disaster.

The roof was cracked, and there were broken walls and ruins. Wine cups and broken wood chips were everywhere on the ground. The originally flat blue brick floor was full of potholes like lotus root holes. Blood had stained the stone surface black and the clothes of the participants red.

The root cause of all this was the coin-sized fragment that was shining with red light.

It was now resting on Liu Zhaoqing's index finger, like a juicy fruit in the desert, attracting those who were thirsty for it and arousing their desire to possess it for themselves.

But at the same time, the power of this "fruit" was so shocking that everyone fell to their knees because of it.

They looked up at Liu Zhaoqing, and were shocked that Liu Zhaoqing was not hurt by the fragments. At the same time, they were even more terrified that Liu Zhaoqing actually... had the Emperor's destiny.

The moment Zhang Chun took out the artifact fragment, it was proven that the rumors were not false.

Now, the strange vision that occurred after Liu Zhaoqing got the fragments, and the imperial aura that was like a raging wave for a moment, gave them a loud slap in the face.

Everything Zhang Chun said was right. This was the sacred weapon of the Han Dynasty and the Mandate of Heaven by Emperor Gaozu.

The key to the birth of such a magical artifact was Changping Hou Liu Zhaoqing.

Liu Zhaoqing now possesses one of the twelve fragments... and can use it at any time.

Han Fu, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly stood up. He looked at Liu Zhaoqing with an uncertain expression. He had not yet figured out how to deal with this sudden change.

But he didn't say anything, which made others anxious.

"Liu Zhaoqing, you actually colluded with foreign tribes and committed treason and usurped the Han Dynasty?!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from beside Han Fu. It was Zhang Yang, the prefect of Shangdang in Bingzhou. He stood up and pointed at Liu Zhaoqing and scolded him harshly.

Under his leadership, many people from the Bingzhou faction, either out of jealousy or fear, directly followed suit and severely reprimanded Liu Zhaoqing.

"Liu Zhaoqing, you are the Marquis of Changping of the Han Dynasty, how could you do such a thing?!"

"No wonder there were rumors that someone saw the DiDi beast in Youzhou. The appearance of this beast means that there are traitors who are harming the country!"

"Zhang Chun betrayed the Han Dynasty for his own benefit, and you, Liu Zhaoqing, actually want to become the emperor in Hebei!"

"Liu Zhaoqing, how is your behavior different from Zhang Chun's?!"

……

"enough!!"

Just as the princes from Jizhou and Bingzhou started to fight and scold each other, suddenly a loud shout came from beside Liu Zhaoqing.

The shout was much louder than a strong wind, and louder than thunder on a sunny day. People who were close to it even flew backwards to the ground, covering their bleeding ears and howling in pain.

When he turned his head, he saw Zhang Fei gritting his teeth, walking towards him with an angry look on his face, pointing at the princes opposite.

"How dare you, a bunch of chickens, pigs, dogs and pigs, slander the Marquis of Changping?"

This insult was completely merciless and even more direct than insulting someone's parents.

The lowest rank of these Hebei princes was the governor's assistants or confidants, and they had never been insulted like this. After being stunned for a moment, they became very excited.

"How dare you, a black-faced little girl, speak like that?!"

"You are a nameless person! How dare you say such outrageous words?!"

"You are no different from Liu Zhaoqing!"

……

"You still dare to quibble?!"

Zhang Fei didn't waste any time. He rolled up his sleeves and stomped his feet hard on the ground. In an instant, the ground shook three times and even a crack appeared.

"Stop talking nonsense. Your grandma Fei was best at slaughtering chickens, pigs, dogs and pigs. Come on! Let's see who dares to touch her!"

Zhang Fei had really been holding back on these Hebei princes for too long. These people were sanctimonious and held high positions, but deep down they could smear white as black for their own benefit.

Zhang Fei was already unhappy that the other party came to the banquet shamelessly, and now he was blaming Liu Zhaoqing, which made Zhang Fei unbearable.

The strength displayed by Zhang Fei's shout and stomp of his foot just now made many people afraid to respond for a moment.

Guan Yu defeated Pan Feng in one round before, and now seeing Zhang Fei who seems to be as brave as Guan Yu, no one dares to challenge Pan Feng again.

Although no one dared to fight Zhang Fei for many rounds, no one would turn around and leave immediately.

"Duke Bo'an, you are a member of the royal family of the Han Dynasty, and a chief of the Nine Ministers. You were also appointed as the governor of Youzhou by the late emperor himself." Han Fu bowed to Liu Yu, who had just stood up on the high platform behind Liu Zhaoqing and others.

"Now there is a traitor in Hebei who holds the sacred weapon of the Han Dynasty and wants to become the emperor. Are you really going to ignore it and allow the world to have two rulers and Hebei to fall into chaos?!"

At such a critical moment, Han Fu actually calmed down and knew that the best countermeasure now was to split Liu Yu and Liu Zhaoqing from within.

After all, although the number of people on Liu Zhaoqing's side is not as large as that on his side, there are at least four outstanding people when looking around, not to mention that this place is someone else's Liu Yu's territory.

The most effective way to hit Liu Yu's soft spot is to use the orthodoxy of rites and laws, which Liu Yu valued most, as well as the Han Dynasty and the people of Hebei to persuade and coerce him.

As expected, after hearing this, Liu Yu's face showed obvious hesitation.

Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun frowned at this, and Liu He beside him even stepped closer and said, "Father, don't listen to this!"

"How could Zhao Qing be a traitor? Your intention to split Youzhou is obvious!"

After Liu He finished speaking, Zhao Yun also bowed to Liu Yu and advised: "Lord Bo'an, please do not be disturbed by him. Wenyuan and I returned with the Marquis of Changping from the Wuhuan Mountains with great victory. How could the Marquis of Changping have the intention of rebelling?"

Even Gongsun Zan frowned and said, "Zhao Qing got this item passively, and he didn't do anything to deceive the emperor. Hanzhou Mu, you are going too far to accuse him. People who don't know would think you are the imperial historian who has the gift of divination."

These timely exhortations also made Liu Yu instantly realize that Han Fu's intention was to divide them.

His hesitation just now was also because he was thinking about how to solve the current complicated situation.

"Even if he is the Grand Historian, he can only predict natural disasters and get a glimpse of the country's destiny. It is impossible for him to know about the collapse of the Mandate of Heaven and the Emperor of Hebei." Liu Yu said calmly to Han Fu and the princes of Hebei.
