My father is Emperor Wu of Han, how can I be different from him?

Chapter 7 Night

"puff!"

The tip of the gun pierced into the chest, and then, driven by the huge inertia, pierced through the leather armor, flesh, and internal organs, and finally, came out from the back.

An assassin was nailed directly into the ground by a spear thrown from a distance, and was deader than dead. Huo Qubing, who was riding a horse, reached out and pulled out the spear.

Then continue to rush forward.

The spear danced, bringing up clouds of blood mist.

The surrounding enemies were extremely fierce and kept coming one after another, but Huo Qubing didn't even blink an eye. Since they are here, then he will die!
The imperial guards were led by their commander, their morale was high, and they swung at the enemy with their ring-handled swords one after another.

The assassin rushed fast and died fast.

Huo Qubing killed his way from west to east, and when he looked back, he saw that the road he came from was like fallen ears of wheat, with corpses lying all over the ground.

Blood was all over the streets.

Seeing that the few remaining assassins were still ready to make a move, Huo Qubing knew without a second thought that these guys must be from some force, and that they were death squads that had been nurtured for years.

"Humph!"

"Another bunch of gutter rats!"

In the past, Princess Guantao assassinated her uncle Wei Qing using such despicable means, which made Huo Qubing extremely disgusted.

He flicked the blood drop from the tip of his spear and said coldly, "Eliminate all evil!"

"kill!"

……

In front of the mansion gate, he watched a charge that was so blood-thirsty that not only military generals like Su Wu, but even Liu Ju, a small man, felt his blood boiling.

I wish I could take his place!
"Marquis Guanjun, what a brave general!" This is the exclaimed Minister Su.

"That's right, don't you see whose cousin he is!" This is the shameless prince.

Although the assassin was fearless and valiant, he was gradually losing strength under the attack of the Ti cavalry and rushed forward only with his ruthless strength.

Huo Qubing's charge was the last breakthrough that broke the camel's back.

Without the cover of the crowd, it is impossible to hide or launch a surprise attack. With just flesh and blood, one cannot withstand the impact of the army.

There were only a few cats left, big and small, and they were no longer a threat. At this moment, today's ambush was finally coming to an end.

Na.

At every critical moment like this, there are always some people who arrive 'in time'.

Today is no exception.

"Your Highness! I am too late to save you!" At the other end of the street, several figures came running quickly and shouted, "How dare you, you bold assassin, to assassinate the crown prince!"

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

He was obviously a big and strong man, but he howled as if his mother had died.

Liu Ju followed the voice and discovered... he didn't recognize the person.

It was normal that he didn't know him, after all, he had only been in contact with foreign officials for a short time, but Su Wu knew him, "Your Highness, the man who shouted was Marquis Antou."

"Hou Antou Hou?"

Liu Ju recalled it once, but had no impression of it, so he wanted Su Wu to send him away. He thought that he was dreaming of taking credit for the merit.

however.

At this time, Su Wu whispered, "Mr. Zhang Cigong, the Marquis of Antou, and my father have been comrades-in-arms for many years. He is also a former subordinate of the general."

Nowadays, any general in the court can always find some friendship with Wei Qing if he tries to get ahead.

If the scope is further narrowed.

The generals who were granted titles of nobility in the court in recent years must be related to Wei Qing!

There was no way, because we had fought against the Huns many times over the years, whether it was the Battle of Hetao, the Battle of Gaoque, or the Battle of Dingxiang North, it was Wei Qing who was the commander.

It would be fine if he was just a commander, he also won every battle!
If you win, you will have military merit, and if you have military merit, you will be granted a title of nobility. Being granted a title of nobility under Wei Qing's command, friendship will naturally come.

Moreover.

"Mr. Zhang Cigong, the Marquis of Antou, has followed the general for many years and they have a special relationship. Your Highness, you see..." Su Wu saw that the prince wanted to wave him away, so he explained.

He can ignore the comradeship with his father, but shouldn’t the prince consider the general’s side?
Liu Ju really needs to think carefully about this matter.

As the saying goes, don't judge by the monk's face, but by the Buddha's face. It seems that Antou Hou's character is a bit bad, but I still have to give face to my uncle.

Let him take credit for saving the emperor's life, just consider it as a favor.

in this way.

Liu Ju swallowed his words of trying to drive the man away.

"Your Highness!" Antou Hou Zhang Cigong had already approached and was still expressing his loyalty. "As soon as I heard that Your Highness was assassinated, I rushed to help without delay..."

Liu Ju didn't hear a word of the chatter that followed. He suppressed his disgust and looked at the general's old subordinate calmly. He was fat and seemed a little weak.

He only ran a few steps but his face turned pale and sweat appeared on his forehead. Hey, his eyes were evasive from time to time. Does he look like a general?
Liu Ju thought, I have to tell my uncle about this in the future...

wrong!

All of a sudden.

As if there was a flash of lightning in his mind, Liu Ju's hair stood on end. He suddenly stared at Zhang Cigong and shouted:
"and many more!!"

Before he could finish his words, a close friend of Zhang Cigong suddenly jumped up from behind him, with a cold light flashing from his sleeve, and stabbed Liu Ju in the face!

The murderous intention is revealed!
……

……

Time goes back a little bit.

Yesterday, at night, the breeze was pleasant.

A gentle breeze blew along the window sill and into the room, blowing away the sweat on the skin and also dispersing the faint fishy smell.

After making love, the man hugged the woman.

The man is broad and fat, a little overweight, but the woman doesn't care.

She hugged him and said something that was only theirs: "I regret it and I don't plan to assassinate Wei Qing anymore."

"Hiss, what are you talking about!?" The man was a little surprised and a little dissatisfied.

Being in the sage time allowed the man to calmly weigh the pros and cons, so he quickly expressed his objection.

but.

Women have their own reasons.

She said: "Wei Qing is your benefactor and promoted you. I can't bear to make things difficult for you!"

Hearing this, the man's body stiffened slightly, but he quickly adjusted himself, patted the woman's shoulders, sighed, and said in a bitter tone:
"Ugh!"

"When doing great things, how can there be no trade-offs?"

If Wei Qing hadn't died, how could he have become the general?

The man actually wanted to say this.

A general who doesn't want to be a great general is not a good general. Men should always follow this philosophy of life.

"The situation is urgent now. Your father is ready to raise an army at any time. We must not drag our feet. To accomplish great things, we must have great courage!"

The man tried to persuade her.

But the woman was kind-hearted like a bodhisattva and was slow to respond, which made the man a little annoyed.

At this time.

"Oh~" The woman shook his arm and said softly, "I'm worried that your reputation will be damaged in the future. Killing your benefactor is not a good thing after all."

At this point, the woman seemed to have thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.

night.

She suddenly sat up.

Unfortunately, there is no moon tonight, so I can’t see the alluring scenery clearly. I can only see the other person’s pair of amazingly bright eyes.

"Well, how about..."

"Shall we assassinate the prince?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell into deathly silence.

After a long silence.

Suddenly, a man roared, "Are you crazy?"

The man turned over and sat up, shook off the woman's entanglement, walked to the table, grabbed a wine jug, and drank the wine in the jug in one gulp.

Throw away the empty pot.

The man finally had the strength to shout again: "How can assassinating the prince be the same as assassinating the general? That is a crime punishable by the extermination of the entire clan!"

The man was very irritable and restless like a fire.

But women are very calm. As many sayings say, women made of water are as quiet as a ball of water.

at this time.

The ball of water stood up slowly and walked to the man, bringing him the gentleness and coolness of water. At the same time, it also asked quietly:

"Killing a general means killing his entire clan, killing the crown prince means killing all nine clans. Why can't the crown prince be killed?"
