Chapter 340 Regicide

The warriors raised their swords and began to charge.
Although the two men under Duan Shao were using their bare hands, they could rely on their agility to avoid the opponent's attacks and constantly avoid the crowd.
Duan Shao walked to Gao Wei step by step.
Gao Wei wanted to escape in a panic, but several old scribes were kneeling not far away, trembling with fear. He looked around, but couldn't see any useful weapons, so he could only reach for the inkstone.
As soon as he reached out, a thick and strong hand grabbed his arm.
Gao Wei raised his head, and Duan Shao lifted him up, grabbing his neck with both hands, like lifting a chicken.
Duan Shao preferred to be a commander, not a general who relied on personal bravery. However, not being known as brave is not a sign of weakness.
With Gao Wei and villains like him, it is not that easy to kill the armored Duan Shao.
When Duan Shao started to grab his neck and lift himself into the air, Gao Wei felt fear.
He kicked his legs hard and cried, "I know my mistake! I know my mistake!! Please forgive me, Da Sima! Forgive me!!"
Duan Shao grabbed him, held him in his arms, and stared at the warriors angrily.
"Put down your weapons and kneel down!!"
As his hand continued to exert force, Gao Wei also shouted, "Didn't you hear Da Sima's words?! Let go! Let everyone go!!"
The warriors looked at Gao Wei hesitantly, not daring to move forward.
"Take away their weapons!"
Duan Shao ordered again, and the two warriors who had followed him came forward, snatched away their weapons, and forced them to kneel on the ground.
Someone hurriedly went out to call someone.
Lu Lingxuan sat on the ground blankly. This sudden change made her instantly frightened and at a loss.
Within the scope allowed by the rules, Lu Lingxuan did an excellent job. By relying on the emperor and strengthening her voice, she gained the support of many people in the court. However, this monster in the court was unruly.
When the rules fail, the fight becomes only a pure physical collision and a sword-to-sword fight.
Under this new rule, Lu Lingxuan has no advantage.
She looked at Gao Wei, who was wrapped around his neck by Duan Shao, and hurriedly got up, rushed forward and tore at Gao Wei, trying to pull him out, "Da Sima, let go first, you first"
Duan Shao raised his fist and punched her in the face. How could Lu Lingxuan afford such a punch? She shook her head and fell to the ground.
Looking at Lu Lingxuan who fell to the ground, Duan Shao glanced at her and whispered: "As a woman, since you are wearing the official uniform of a servant, I will treat you the same way I treat you as a servant."
Gao Wei was frightened at this moment.
The development of things deviated greatly from what he expected.
That day, he saw the hesitant looks in the soldiers' eyes, which made him have other thoughts. He didn't listen to Lu Lingxuan's words. Liu Taozi was far away in the horizon, while Duan Shao was nearby.
In front of you.
He immediately summoned his warriors to discuss the matter.
But neither the warrior Han Changluan, who was deeply blessed by him, nor Hou Lufen, who was promoted to the position of leading general by him, were unwilling to take action against Duan Shao.
These soldiers, who were deeply trusted by him, did not dare to attack Duan Shao, and even used their lives to dissuade the emperor from this crazy idea.
It's a bit scary to think about killing Duan Shao in Jinyang.
Duan Shao is not Yu Wenhu. Among all the soldiers in Jinyang who have not fought with him or received favors from him, it is another question whether they can be killed. Even if they are killed, will the people in the city still let the murderer go?
Are you afraid that you are going to directly attack the palace in the name of revenge for Da Sima?
What's more, in this world right now, who else can stop Liu Taozi except Duan Shao?
How stupid to kill Duan Shao!
But Gao Wei never cared about this.
He just resented that these people refused to listen to him, so he used those villains who were temporarily promoted to solve Duan Shao through them.
He originally wanted to attack and kill Duan Shao, then frame him for others, and then appease the Jinyang army.
However, the development of things suddenly turned around, and Duan Shao, who was over fifty years old, still maintained a good fighting ability.
He could only keep begging for mercy, "Da Sima, it was all what others ordered me to do. It has nothing to do with me! It has nothing to do with me!"
Duan Shao's hand exerted force again. Gao Wei was speechless, his face turned red, and he struggled hard.
The soldiers outside rushed into the hall.
The first one to rush in was Han Changluan, the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army.
Han Changluan had demonstrated considerable martial prowess when he was young, and served as Gao Wei's bodyguard before he came to power.
Gao Wei valued him very much, so he promoted him to be the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army, and then made him the king, and then the leading general. Of course, now everyone is a leading general.
Holding a knife in his hand, he looked at the kidnapped emperor, and couldn't help but look at Duan Shao, sweating profusely.
Did the emperor really do it??
He already knew this would be the result!
Looking at the hesitant Han Changluan, Duan Shao immediately frowned and yelled: "A Feng, do you dare to point your sword at me?!"
The sword in Han Changluan's hand immediately fell to the ground. Han Changluan's grandfather Han Xian was Duan Shao's old comrade-in-arms and his father Han Yi had been Duan Shao's subordinate.
He didn't dare to step forward or retreat.
But there were more and more sergeants behind him.
Duan Shao looked at them and said, "Afeng, go tell the generals in the country and ask them to come to the palace to discuss important matters!!"
Han Changluan hesitated, Duan Shao glanced at him again, Han Changluan turned around and left.
Gao Wei wanted to speak, but his neck was so broken that it was difficult to breathe, and he was about to die. Seeing that Gao Wei was about to move, Duan Shao relaxed slightly, allowing Gao Wei to breathe heavily. Once it passed,
After getting tired, he tried again.
Gaowei's lower clothes were completely wet, and his whole body was constantly changing in the cycle of life and death.
When the noise outside became more and more noisy, Duan Shao finally let go of him, grabbed his shoulders, and dragged him out of the hall.
Outside the main hall, two groups of sergeants were confronting each other.
The Imperial Guards were facing each other tit for tat with the soldiers under Duan Shao's command. They had already drawn their weapons and were about to charge together at the next moment.
After Duan Shao appeared, the leader of Duan Shao's soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly shouted: "Master!! We have sent people to inform the generals!! The palace has been surrounded!!"
After hearing these words, the Forbidden Army was obviously a little scared and at a loss.
Duan Shao didn't say anything, he just stood at the top and looked coldly into the distance.
Soon, armored generals rushed in from a distance, and more and more sergeants filed in.
Their purpose was very clear, and they were running towards Duan Shao's direction all the way.
Gao Wei was now in Duan Shao's hands. After going through the cycle just now, he no longer had any strength at all. He was almost dragged by Duan Shao and could not stand up.
The generals who came are all powerful generals from Jinyang. At a glance, they are all princes, and the last ones are leading generals. There are several great generals alone.
Shediluo looked excitedly at Duan Shao who had caught the emperor, with a different kind of light shining in his eyes.
He looked at the generals around him, and they all had joy in their eyes.
They have been looking forward to such a day for a long time. If Duan Shao can take the lead for them, that would be the best.
Duan Shao grabbed Gao Wei's hand harder and harder, and Gao Wei screamed out in pain.
Duan Shao then let go of him and let him fall to the ground.
"Your Majesty is too young and virtuous to inherit the throne, let alone fight against the bandits. Today, I would like to inform the Queen Mother and request her to depose this king and establish a new one. What do you think of the generals?"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they hurriedly shouted: "I am willing to obey the order of the Grand Sima!!"
These warriors were very direct in their rebellion and did not need to do anything fancy. The same was true for Duan Shao. He directly grabbed Gao Wei and walked towards the palace where the Queen Mother was, surrounded by many soldiers.
The generals didn't care whether they were in the palace or not. They were all wearing armor and weapons, and all etiquette was trampled under their feet.
When she learned that there was a "big army pressing down on the territory" outside, the Queen Mother, who was debating Buddhism with the monks secretly, was so frightened that her branches trembled.
She thought that the matter had been exposed, and hurriedly asked the monks to escape through the newly dug holes. She put on her clothes and led many female officials out for a confrontation.
When she hurried to the door, what she saw was Duan Shao grabbing the little emperor, followed by a large group of generals.
Queen Mother Hu became even more frightened, trembling as she looked at the scene in front of her.
Duan Shao gently saluted the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty, the generals and I are here today for a big event."
Queen Mother Hu looked at the arrogant and domineering faces behind him and swallowed, "What big event is Da Sima doing?"
"The matter of abolishing the establishment."
"After your majesty ascended the throne, your words and deeds are beyond description. You are in the palace today, and you even intend to assassinate me. I don't know what crime I have committed, and I want to be killed by your majesty. I dare to ask the Queen Mother, am I guilty?"
Empress Dowager Hu quickly shook her head, "Da Sima is not guilty."
Duan Shao looked at Gao Wei on the side again, "May I ask the Queen Mother if Her Majesty can succeed to the throne?!"
Queen Mother Hu looked at her biological son. After the birth of their younger son, Queen Mother Hu and Gao Zhan both preferred their younger sons, but this did not mean that Queen Mother Hu did not like their eldest son.
However, in these days, the eldest son's attitude towards him became worse and worse, and her status in the harem was even lower than that of Lu Lingxuan.
In order to please the emperor and consolidate her position, Queen Mother Hu even wanted her brother's daughter to marry the emperor. However, the emperor favored the woman Lu Lingxuan found for him, making Queen Mother Hu's idea come to nothing again.
Staring again at the son who had embarrassed her several times and forcibly taken power away from her, Queen Mother Hu found that she didn't care much about his fate.
Abolition and establishment, the only thing she seems to care about is establishment.
"Cannot be inherited."
"But after all, he is the heir of the late emperor."
Queen Mother Hu answered, and then added: "King Gao Yan of Langya can do it."
Duan Shao nodded. He had no intention of supporting anyone else. Compared with Gao Wei, any clan was more suitable, and his younger brother Langya King Gao Yan was also a good choice.
Although this child is still very young, he is very smart, loves to read, is very polite to others, confident and cheerful, and is completely different from his brother.
Moreover, he is also the son of the late emperor, and also born to the Queen Mother.
Duan Shao immediately asked the Queen Mother to issue an edict.
Queen Mother Hu was shocked.
She has participated in political coups in the past, but this is the first time she has experienced such a brutal coup.
Logically speaking, shouldn't several clans take the lead and first write to the Queen Mother about the emperor's evil deeds, and then wait until the letters are enough, then summon the emperor to see him, reprimand him for his mistakes, and then order the selection of a good king, follow a process?
?
How could someone rush in and depose an emperor, then immediately establish another one?
However, Lao Xianbei has always been impatient and doesn't like messing around. He just wants to get it done.
The Queen Mother quickly issued two edicts one after another without even reacting.
Gaowei was thus abolished.
It was so fast that even he himself didn't react. None of the people he randomly awarded rewards could stand up at this moment.
Duan Shao looked into the distance, and a man who looked very similar to him walked over quickly.
"Xiaoyan, take the deposed emperor to another palace first and keep him under strict guard."
Duan Xiaoyan was Duan Shao's biological brother. When he heard his brother's words, he immediately took orders, pulled Gao Wei and left, followed by a group of people.
Duan Shao is not alone, his family is quite powerful, with several strong younger brothers and many adult sons.
Coupled with the marriage relationship with nobles, Duan Shao can speak well in Jinyang.
Then, Duan Shao asked the Queen Mother to issue an edict and have hundreds of officials come to the palace to inform them of this important event.
"Well."
Gao Wei let out a muffled groan and was thrown to the ground.
He slowly raised his head, gasping for air, and looked at Duan Xiaoyan standing in front of him.
Duan Xiaoyan is completely different from his brother.
Although they look similar, they are completely opposite both on the outside and on the inside.
Duan Xiaoyan used to be Zu Jue’s good friend
He has a handsome and suave appearance, and even if he is wearing armor, you can still see his frivolous inner nature. As a person, he is also an out-and-out Chinese man, flattering, taking bribes, amassing money and occupying land, and he does not lose any of them.
He looked at Gao Wei sarcastically, waved his hand, and let the soldiers go out.
They were the only two people left in the house.
He asked: "Your Majesty, ten days ago, when I came to see you, you pointed at me and cursed me, saying that the jade I presented was defective, and you threw it on my head. I didn't expect that it fell on my head so quickly."
In hand."
Gao Wei regained his breath and looked at Duan Xiaoyan angrily, "You are all traitors and traitors!"
"Rebellion!"
"Traitor!!"
Duan Xiaoyan listened happily to his insults, nodding his head from time to time, "Your Majesty's scolding is good, your scolding is very good."
"I tried to persuade my brother at the beginning. The Jinyang army is in his hands. Why not depose the emperor and achieve great things? But my brother refused and even scolded me. Fortunately, you came to help and made my brother change his mind."
"That's great."
Duan Xiaoyan slowly drew out his saber.
Seeing the opponent draw his sword, Gao Wei's face showed a look of horror again, "What do you want to do?! What do you want to do? Are you planning to kill the king?!"
Duan Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment.
Gao Wei hurriedly said: "Da Sima just asked you to look at me! He never asked you to kill me! If it is regicide, Da Sima will never forgive you!!"
Hearing these words, Duan Xiaoyan took a deep breath and slowly walked to Gao Wei.
Gao Wei was so frightened that he kept hiding back. His hands and feet were weak and he couldn't use any strength. He could only crawl awkwardly. Duan Xiaoyan stretched out his hand and grabbed him. After hesitating for a moment, he tremblingly inserted the sword into Gao Wei's body.
Body.
The sword was quite sharp, and it penetrated Gao Wei's body from behind very smoothly.
Gao Wei felt a sharp pain and screamed.
Due to fear or excitement, Duan Xiaoyan failed to stab the sword accurately and did not hurt the vital part at all.
Duan Xiaoyan pressed Gao Wei with his knee and stabbed him again.
The little emperor screamed louder and began to cry.
"Spare your life! Spare your life!!"
Duan Xiaoyan stabbed Gao Wei several times, and Gao Wei's back was almost broken, and the sword in his hand dropped twice.
I don't know how long it took, but Gao Wei's screams like killing pigs finally weakened and gradually disappeared.
Duan Xiaoyan stood up shivering and took a breath.
Gao Wei just lay on the ground, lifeless, and his surroundings were full of blood, like a river.
Duan Xiaoyan took a deep breath and cautiously walked to the door.
"Bring me new clothes, water, and cloth."
After wiping his and the emperor's bodies, Duan Xiaoyan placed Gao Wei on the bed and walked out quickly.
The soldier at the door stared at Duan Xiaoyan complicatedly, but hesitated to speak.
Duan Xiaoyan waved his hand, "He is asleep! Don't disturb him these days! Let him sleep peacefully!!"
"only!!!"
The strong smell of blood condensed at the door and refused to go away.
Chapter completed!
