Chapter 56 Yu Yufu was assassinated

Three days later, Liu Xie arrived at Yufu, and Gan Ning led his troops out of the city to greet him. Not only were the soldiers led by Gan Ning, but also the people who came spontaneously. From their cross-street greetings, we can see how much Yufu's people loved Liu Xie, the young emperor.

But this scene made Gan Ning secretly nervous. If these civilians hide assassins, then his responsibility would be great.

However, when he saw Liu Xie, he found that Liu Xie looked happy and looked very happy. After Gan Ning and others saluted, he patted his shoulder and laughed and said, "Xingba, you're doing a good job!" Seeing the uneasy look in Gan Ning, Liu Xie whispered: "Don't worry, this is the effect I want! I want Liu Jingsheng to know that I have come to Yu Fu to take charge. I wonder if he is ready and determined to start a war with me!"

Lu Meng, who was standing aside, looked similar to Guan Ping, and put Liu Xie in the center on the left and right. Behind Liu Xie were Zhao Yu and Jiang Li, and then the Shenwu Guard and Thirty Luan Guards. The guard power was naturally not weak. If someone jumped out to cause trouble at this time, the ending would be the word "death".

But the more people worry about something happening, it happens.

Just as there were bursts of "Long Live My Emperor" sounds, the people next to them knelt down one by one after someone took the lead in kneeling. The kneeling ceremony was not uncommon in the Han Dynasty, and most of them were kneeling when they were talking.

But it is rare in public, unlike later generations where lower officials have to kneel down when they see upper officials.

However, it is rare, and it is not said that you cannot kneel. Sometimes when people are excited, it is too normal to kneel down, let alone face it today. So Liu Xie didn't care about it, but just waved to the people on both sides.

But just as everyone relaxed their guard, an arrow flew out of the crowd and pointed directly at Liu Xie's face.

Hearing the sound of wind breaking through the air, Gan Ning beside Liu Xie directly pulled out the long sword in his waist, slashed off the long sword that was shot at Liu Xie with one sword, and shouted, "Enemy attack, protect the enemy!"

But before his voice fell, several arrows had already flew towards Liu Xie. It can be seen that the assassin was not alone, and the weapons used were military weapons. The guards below were nervous, but Liu Xie was not in a hurry. The cold dragon sword in his hand was flying, and he easily picked the arrows.

He did not dodge because behind him, there were Zhao Yu and Jiangli. If they dodge, the people behind would definitely not dodge. Moreover, these arrows were helpless to him. He didn't even feel angry in his heart.

Liu Xie knew that there were not a few people who wanted to kill him, and the people who dared to launch an assassination on him here would definitely not be locals in Yizhou. If it were done by locals in Yizhou, they would be too stupid, because Liu Xie's bloody methods had already told them that if they found out, they would be killed without mercy.

In this way, they could only be outsiders. Several other princes had reasons to kill him because they were afraid of Liu Xie's growth.

But Liu Xie is not angry, it does not mean that others are not angry. Especially Gan Ning, he comes here to welcome Liu Xie. If something happens to Liu Xie at this time, he will be blamed. This is secondary. What is important is that if Liu Xie has problems, then this great man will really collapse.

And his future can only be like this.

"Zi Ming, you lead someone to protect Your Majesty, and I will search for the enemy!"

Gan Ning shouted loudly and rushed towards the assassins, while the people next to him fled in scattering and scattering.

Seeing that the assassin failed, they naturally would not foolishly hold weapons, throw them away long ago, and flee with the people who fled.

Gan Ning could only look at him hatefully, run back with shame and ask for punishment from Liu Xie!

Liu Xie took the thrown military weapons and looked through them, and finally handed them to Gan Ning, saying, "Xingba, let's see where this kind of crossbow comes from!"

Gan Ning looked through it, looked up at Liu Xie, and said, "Report to Your Majesty, this crossbow is used by the Jingzhou Navy..."

"Let's go to the city first!" Liu Xie turned over the horse, squeezed his legs and headed towards Yufu County.

The good welcome ceremony was made like this, and Gan Ning wanted to die. But he had no choice but to secretly scold the Jingzhou navy for being troubled. He swears with gritted teeth that he must find an opportunity to deal with them when he turned around.

Not only was Gan Ning angry, but also officials of all sizes such as Bayong Prefect Deng Zhi and Yu Fuling Meng Jian were extremely angry.

Because they are all afraid, if something happened to Liu Xie here, the result can be imagined. Moreover, Yizhou is changing with each passing day and has a new look every day. They don’t want such good things to be destroyed and affect their future.

Of course, it is still a small matter to affect the future. What is important is that before this, they must bear the blame for dereliction of duty.

Therefore, they were more nervous and depressed than anyone else in this matter. They were shot while lying down! Before Liu Xie ordered a detailed investigation, they started to arrange the matter by themselves. Especially before Gan Ning followed Liu Xie into the city, they sent their men to secretly visit.

When they arrived at the yamen office, Liu Xie stayed with Zhu Ge, Gan Ning, Lu Meng, Guan Ping, Deng Zhi, Meng Jian and others, and the others were dismissed first.

"Whatever you think about this matter, let me tell you what you think!" After sitting down, Jiang Li took a teapot to cook tea for Liu Xie.

Gan Ning said impatiently: "This matter is undoubtedly done by the Jingzhou navy. They have reasons and motivations. There is still evidence now! Perhaps some people say that they will not be so stupid and throw such obvious evidence on the scene. But what if they want to use this method to confuse everyone's attention? Your Majesty, if they want to fight, let's fight them! The group of mobs in Jingzhou have not taken seriously yet! They will definitely beat them to the point!"

Liu Xie looked at Gan Ning who was impatient, but just smiled, and didn't say anything else. Then he swept around everyone's faces, "Do you have no different opinions?"

Lu Meng scratched his head and said, "Although what General Gan said makes sense, we have no other evidence, so it is hard to say who it is, because everyone has this possibility!"

"Bomiao, Gongwei, what do you think?"

The two looked at each other, Meng Jian shook his head and said, "It is indeed as Chief Lu said, there is no more evidence, so it is difficult to prove who did it."

Deng Zhi also nodded and said, "I also think so!"

Liu Xie chuckled and looked at Guan Ping and Zhu Ge, "Now, you two are left without comments. Let's frankly, tell me!"

Guan Ping grinned and said, "Ping is the same as General Xingba's idea. It is probably the conspiracy of the Jingzhou navy."

"Where is Kong Ming?"

Brother Zhu smiled slightly and said, "Whoever your Majesty thinks is the most suitable is who!"

Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard this, but Liu Xie burst into laughter. (To be continued.
