Volume Two, Chapter Thirty-Eighth, Under Turmoil

The four of them cried for a while, took out deer jelly, bear's paws, fine wine and other offerings, and worshiped Emperor Wu: "Milutu, we are here to visit you!" Milutu is the name of Emperor Wu of Zhou. When Emperor Wu of Zhou was alive, only the closest people could call him this.

Yuwen Shenqiu said, "Milutu, you ordered us to assist the prince, and we advise you that the prince is not the lord of the country, and you don't listen. Now the King of Qi is dead, the general Dugu Xiong is dead, Dou Lushao is dead, and a few days ago, Yuwen Liang is also dead, and your son will take the daughter-in-law as the queen. When Liu Cong established five queens, the Later Han people died, Milutu, your son has now established five queens. Now, court officials have changed their clothes for the Han and Wei dynasties. I'm afraid that we will be killed by your son, and we will soon come down to accompany you. Our Great Zhou is over."

Yuchi Yun was Yuchi Fanchi's uncle, and his face suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Yuwen Xiaobo threw the wine in the glass: "What's the use of crying? We are here to discuss a countermeasure. Otherwise, if the country continues like this, it will be overthrown."

Yuchi Yun said: "Now the emperor is getting more and more crazy, and even the wife of the minister can be seized. We said that the emperor was not the lord of the country, of course, that was right, but this statement would be revealed sooner or later. I am afraid that a great disaster will come to an end. For the country and for one's own plan, we must find a way to solve it."

Yuwen Xiaobo said: "Now the government has fallen into the hands of Zheng Yi, Liu Fang and other villains. The former emperor appointed four ministers to govern the government: King Sheng of Yue was expelled from the capital, Duke of Shu Yuchi Jiong was far away on the front line, Duke of Shen Li Mu was old, only when Duke of Suluru Jian was young and promising, but started to shrink his head. Only now can the plan be made, only by transferring King Zhao from Xiangzhou to govern the government can we maintain peace and stability in the country and the people can be safe."

King Zhao is the eldest among the emperor's uncles today. He has been smart since childhood, read a lot of books and made great contributions. He is the most virtuous among the emperor's uncles. If he enters the court, not only will the country turn into danger, but everyone can expect nothing to happen. But everyone knows that the emperor is suspicious and how can he be willing to recall all the emperor's uncles when he drove them out of the capital?

Yuwen Shenju pondered for a long time before saying, "This matter can be done very well, but we are afraid that we will commit a big taboo when we jointly express our opinions; and if we report it alone, we may be just a glimmer of hope."

Yuwen Xiaobo said: "There are fewer advantages and disadvantages on the joint statement. I will list it separately. Although there is only a glimmer of hope in this way, there is no choice at all."

Everyone looked at each other, but there was no better way. They worshiped each other in front of the tomb of Emperor Wu before leaving. The next day, Yuwen Xiaobo's letter was handed over and asked King Zhao to be summoned to the capital to assist in the administration.

As soon as Yuwen Xiaobo's stamp was put on, a big stir was caused. Emperor Tianyuan held Yuwen Xiaobo's memorial with a pale face and shouted nervously: "What are they going to do? What are they going to do?"

Emperor Tianyuan was restless in the harem, and he couldn't help but remember when he came back from the Tuyuhun, Yuwen Xiaobo secretly told Emperor Wu about the beating he had done in the army. At that time, the guards threw him into Wen'an Hall, and his lower body was covered with slimness. Emperor Wu said, "Beat." The sticks were added together, and they stopped until the skin was blooming and the blood was pouring. Now several scars fell on his legs, which would hurt when it was cloudy.

At that time, it seemed that Yuwen Xiaobo, Wang Gui, Yuwen Shenju, Yuwen Xian and others were watching next to him. Unexpectedly, he killed Yuwen Xian. These people did not give up and called him to King Zhao again.

Hearing the shouts of Emperor Tianyuan, Queen Yang Lihua hurried over: "Tianzun, what happened?"

Emperor Tianyuan tilted his head to take care of Yang Lihua. Emperor Tianyuan liked the queen he appointed for him. Not only was he good-looking, but he was gentle and did not jealous in the harem. He even appointed five queens, but Yang Lihua had no objection, but he just advised him to pay attention to his health from time to time.

Emperor Tianyuan suddenly said, "My beloved concubine, if I died under the stick, who would take over the throne of my father? It's probably King Xian of Qi."

Yang Lihua didn't know how to answer the emperor's inexplicable words, so she could only say: "How can there be any trouble for the Emperor's Emperor Hongfu Qi?"

"Haha, Hongfu, Hongfu, right? I, Hongfu, I, want to kill me, I will kill you first." Yuwen Yun laughed wildly. "Come on, I will tell you Yuwen Xiaobo."

Yuwen Xiaobo handed the stamp on it and knew that it might be wrong. After hearing the news, Angbu walked into the palace. When he saw Emperor Tianyuan, Yuwen Xiaobo slowly knelt down.

As soon as he saw Yuwen Xiaobo, Emperor Tianyuan immediately asked: "What is your intention to ask the Heavenly Lord to summon King Zhao to Beijing? But do you want to rebel?"

Yuwen Xiaobo replied: "The late emperor entrusted his humble ministers to instruct His Majesty to introduce the legacy of the late emperor, unify the nine states, and safeguard the people of the world. Now Your Majesty refuses to follow the advice, and then goes against the rules. First, he will break the pillars of the country, and then destroy the Great Wall. When the country is unstable, I suggest that Your Majesty invite King Zhao to come back to assist in the government, and there is no intention of rebellion."

Zheng Yi said coldly, "What a man has no intention of rebellion. The Heavenly Lord is clear. When the King of Qi was there, Yuwen Xiaobo, Wang Gui and others joined forces and tried their best to criticize the Heavenly Lord in front of the late emperor. It was just that he did not want the Heavenly Lord to inherit the inheritance so that the King of Qi would succeed to the throne. The King of Qi was executed. They still did not give up. Now they wanted to launch a dispute between King Zhao and the Heavenly Lord. It was really unforgivable."

Zheng Yi's words were half true and half false. Yuwen Xiaobo had said bad things about Yuwen Yun in front of Emperor Wu, and they did persuade Emperor Wu to change the King of Qi as his heir, but they had no intention of rebellion. Otherwise, when Emperor Wu just passed away, all the guards in the palace were in the hands of Yuwen Xiaobo, and it would be easy to rebel.

Zheng Yi's words hit the emperor's mind, and he would not allow Yuwen Xiaobo to tell him again. Emperor Tianyuan shouted: "Come here, Yuwen Xiaobo's plot to rebel is conclusive, and he will be sentenced to death!"

Yuwen Xiaobo pointed at Zheng Yi and cursed: "Little man, I should have advised the late emperor to beat you to death. The Great Zhou Dynasty will sooner or later be defeated by you group of villains."

Several guards put the rope around Yuwen Xiaobo's neck without saying a word and strangled Yuwen Xiaobo to death.

Looking at Yuwen Xiaobo's eyes dying with his eyes closed, Zheng Yi aroused old hatred and said to Yuwen Yun: "Tianzun, although Yuwen Xiaobo is dead, he is afraid that Wang Gui, Yuwen Shenju and others will hold grudges. If the thief is not dead, he will support who will fight for the throne in private."

Yuwen Yun shouted: "Kill, kill, kill them all."

With Yuwen Yun's order, Zheng Yi was immediately unscrupulous. Although Wang Gui and Yuwen Shenju did not write a letter with Yuwen Xiaobo, they could not escape the connection. Zheng Yi connected their violations with Yuwen Liang, and searched and detained them. Jingzhao Cheng Leyun was also involved in this storm. Anyone who was hooked by Zheng Yi could not escape his life. Only Yuchi Yun relied on Yuchi Fanchi's relationship to escape and did not even lose his official position.
