148 The change in front of the palace
Although Liu Bei said something, even though Youzhou has a strong accent, the people of Kucha understand it.
The chief minister wanted to meet the king outside the palace.
The third level of Kucha royal city, the chief minister has entered the second level. It is reasonable to see the king on the first level. Moreover, the chief minister will use the Western Regions on behalf of the emperor. The King of Kucha should go out to welcome him ten miles away. How can the chief minister enter the palace to pay homage?
In this way, where did the great Han Dynasty place its power?
The two brothers were afraid that they could not think of so many things for a while. However, Liu Bei thought of it.
I expected that the King of Kucha would not refuse.
Sure enough, I suddenly heard the sound of drums on the top of the city shaking the sky, and the royal flags were erected one after another.
After a moment, the palace gate opened wide. The ceremonial guards came out first. The King of Kucha sat upright on the bed of Jin Shizi, and curtains were set up around him, which could be vaguely distinguished. He was carried out by the palace servants.
The group of people crossed the White Jade Bridge and landed on the head of the bridge. They looked at Liu Bei across the Imperial Road.
"Welcome to the king--" The crowd of onlookers knelt on the ground to salute.
Liu Bei also performed a ritual: "Han, general of the auxiliary Han Dynasty, chief of the Western Regions, and Marquis of Linxiang, have met the king. I forgive my subordinates for being armored and cannot give full rituals."
The man from the palace was rolling the curtains, and the old king of Kucha, dressed in the clothes of princes and kings, had a rosy face and responded with a smile: "The chief minister is exempt from rituals. The lonely (king) is in bed for a long time, and the rituals are not accurate. The chief minister must not be surprised."
"I, I dare not." Liu Bei clasped his fists again.
"The young hero of the chief clan is famous. Now that I can see him, he is indeed a talented person, the Qilin of the Tian Family."
"I heard that the king was suffering from severe illness and was bedridden for a long time. Now I see that the king is full of energy and his face is still the same, and my subordinates are very pleased." Liu Bei also greeted.
"Haha..." The King of Kucha smiled and nodded: "Why does the Changshi come from?"
"I am here to connect with the Western Regions again." Liu Bei replied seriously.
"Since the Chief of the Squad, the Han Court has become increasingly alienated from the countries in the Western Regions. Later, the Xianbei rose and looted and plundered each year, which made our small countries extremely miserable. Fortunately, the Changshi defeated the battle. The Xianbei was like a dog that was stranded, no longer the past. However, 'people burned incense quickly, and the dog rushed to the wall'. Now there is a vicious dog in Qifu that is on the way, and everyone is afraid to dodge and dare not fight with it." The King of Kucha slowed down and continued: "The Changshi came with the power, and first destroyed Tufa, and then fought against Qifu. As I expected, the Xianbei would be destroyed, and the Western Regions could be settled."
"The King's Mingjian." Liu Bei said with a smile. He didn't pretend to be (beep!), and when did he wait?
"What I am thinking about is that the Xianbei is destroyed, where will the Changshi go?" The King of Kucha thought about the long-term: "If the Xianbei incident happened, the Changshi will return to the Han Dynasty, thousands of miles away from us. Now there are the twelve tribes of Gaoche who are heading south, Shule and Shache are looking at me. If the Changshi is not here, who can protect me?"
"I am here to relieve my worries for the king." Liu Bei smiled slightly and was about to speak.
Suddenly, the blood of the King of Kucha surging, his red face turned black as blood.
"puff--"
The King of Kucha spewed his blood several feet and died while sitting on the bed!
"King--" The Kucha ministers rushed forward.
The people watching Kucha were even more frightened and knelt on the ground. Their bodies were shaking like sieves and crying in a low voice.
Liu Bei was also stunned.
Before I could react, I suddenly heard the sound of the strong string.
"bite--"
Yan Xing, who was standing in front of the right, suddenly swung his sword and cut the hidden arrow down.
"There is an assassin!" Zhang Fei roared and stood in front of Liu Bei.
"Those who move randomly will kill you!" The voice came out of the Marquis of the Fuguo.
The Kuzha Armored soldiers drew their swords in their hands, forming a battle circle to separate the crowd.
The people of Kucha knelt on the ground and dared not move.
Doctor Hua once told Liu Bei that he was a person who was despised in death, "If the color sees green as grass, those who are yellow as citrus aurantium, those who are black as vegetation, those who are red as blood, those who are white as dry bones, those who are white as dry bones." This means that if these five colors appear on the patient, it is a sign of death.
The King of Kucha was as red as blood (called blood condensed by evil spirits, and his color was red and black). He must have died.
The Hou of Fuguo trembled his fingers and tried the breath of the old king of Kucha. Then he said sadly: "The King has passed away!"
"King——" the ministers cried.
Liu Bei was shocked and confused, but he was also full of gratitude.
It's almost there!
If the old king was in the palace city, he would retreat and be talking, but he suddenly burst into blood and died. How could Liu Bei escape?
Fortunately, I am very lucky.
The Hou of Fuguo endured the grief and called out: "Youli Fujun."
"The lower official is here." The Youli Assistant, who led Liu Bei into the city, got up and left the list.
"Let's see if the king's symptoms are the same as those of the prince!" Hou Fuguo said with hatred.
"Here!" The Assistant of Youli stepped forward and took a closer look.
After a moment, he said angrily: "Red as blood, bleeding from seven orifices. Just like a prince!"
"Let me ask if you wait, if you have any medicine before the king left the palace!" The Marquis of Fuguo shouted angrily.
The palace maid crawling on the ground looked up and said, "The king has no medicine, he just took it... he took it..."
"What did you eat!"
"I ate the immortal pill offered by the Prime Minister." The palace man replied in a trembling voice.
Liu Bei sighed inwardly. No wonder he looked rosy and refreshed. It turned out to be a rebirth.
"Come!" The Marquis of Fuguo was furious: "Catch all the trusted and slandered ministers of the Great Du Wei Cheng!"
"Here!" The two left and right commanders in charge of the royal capital of Kucha were ordered to get up. Then they were full of murderous intent and led their troops into the palace.
"Brother?" Guan Yu wanted to speak but stopped.
"Second brother. I'm afraid I'll be used as a gun again this time." Liu Bei's eyes were full of profound meaning.
"What does this mean by brother?" Guan Yu asked.
"The opera clerk once said, 'The young lord was born as a powerful minister'." Liu Bei sighed: "Let's take a look."
Soon, the Great Commander, the Marquis of Anguo and other fences were captured by the two commanders on the left and right.
"Wuwuwuwu! The king——" Seeing that the King of Kucha died in the bed, the Grand Duwei Cheng, the Marquis of Anguo, etc. could not help crying.
"The king died because of you. The prince's symptoms are the same as those of the king." The Hou of Fuguo burst into tears and asked sadly: "The Prime Minister has something to say."
"The old minister has nothing to say, he just wants to die." The Grand Commander also burst into tears.
Seeing that he was determined to die, Liu Bei suddenly felt suspicious.
"Okay, okay, okay." The Hou of Fuguo said three times, and then he rushed to the left and right commander and said: "The iron evidence is as strong as a mountain, and it is not allowed to be quizzed. The monarchy is a serious crime, and the three tribes of the barbarians are here! The person who came--"
"Let's go." Liu Bei suddenly spoke.
Although the sound is light, it is loud and loud.
The Marquis of Fuguo wiped his tears with his sleeves and saluted: "What does the Chief Secretariat mean?"
Liu Bei also replied to the horse and said, "The fact is clear that the king died because of the elixir. However, the Great Commander did it intentionally or was unintentionally wrong. It has not been found out."
"What should the Chief Secretary think?" The Hou of Fuguo bowed and asked again.
"Human life is at stake, and it cannot be arbitrary. Why not put it in jail first and choose a date to retrial. It is said that 'the country cannot be without a master for a day'. The king has passed away, and national affairs are the most important. I wonder what the marquis of the Assistant Kingdom thinks?"
"This..." The Marquis of the Fuguo thought for a moment, and bowed and bowed: "According to what the Chief Secretary said, we will be detained for the time being. After the previous king is buried and the new king ascended the throne, it will not be too late to examine it in detail."
"It's so good." Liu Bei nodded slightly.
The Hou of Fuguo was about to turn around and give an order.
Suddenly, Liu Bei said again: "Can the Marquis of Fuguo verify with me?"
"I dare to ask the Chief Secretary, what else is there?" The Marquis of Fuguo turned around and asked again.
"It's no big deal." Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief: "The Marquis of the Fuguo just needs to repeat my words."
"Let me say it."
Liu Bei blurted out: "The sky has eyes, and the yellow sky will be destroyed."
