Chapter 71 Yu Jin: Why do I feel like I have become a nuisance to my master?
Hua Xiong wiped the blood on the broken blade of Overlord in his hand on Wu Qiong's body and put the broken blade back into the sheath.
Then he didn't even look at Wu Qiong who was lying on the ground, still steaming.
He walked straight towards the soldiers who were stunned for a moment.
"Gentlemen, continue doing what you should do. Things are not what you think. This guy wants to frame me.
He said that he was dissatisfied with the Prime Minister, and then whispered in front of me, insulting me and you all in every way.
He wants to provoke me and make me kill him.
This will prove that Hua Xiong is indeed dissatisfied with the Prime Minister as he said.
A dog-like thing wants to insult and frame me and my subordinates?
Even if we know he has ulterior motives, what can we do?
I, Hua Xiong, will kill him without any mistake!"
Hua Xiong looked at the soldiers and said.
Although he never struck any domineering pose, he exuded a domineering aura.
"Gentlemen, this is a great day to reward the troops. We cannot let a scoundrel like this who only knows how to stir up trouble and plot against others dampen our interest!"
After Hua Xiong finished speaking, he came to a cow used to reward the troops, held the bull's head with one hand, took a step forward with his right leg, and exerted all his strength. This adult bull was directly knocked to the ground by Hua Xiong!
Hua Xiong half-knelt on the ground, half-knelt with his left leg, pressed on the bull's head, and released the arm that was holding the bull's neck.
Although it was only pressed here with one leg, no matter how this bull, which looked very ferocious and strong, roared and struggled, it could not move.
This strong bull was extremely ferocious and had injured two people on the way here. Now it was no longer ferocious and its roar was full of fear.
"Bring the basin!"
Hua Xiong gave an order and immediately a soldier came up with a basin and, at Hua Xiong's signal, placed it under the cow's neck.
Seeing that the man was ready, Hua Xiong drew out the Overlord's Broken Blade and chopped it off at the cow's neck.
It seemed that the broken blade had just touched the cow's neck and separated like a dragonfly touching the water.
The cow looked like nothing had happened.
There was not a single drop of blood on the Overlord's broken blade.
Hua Xiong, however, took the broken blade of Overlord and put it back into its sheath.
The people watching on the side were a little confused, not knowing whether Governor Hua had killed the cow.
"puff!"
A moment later, a sound was heard, and blood gushed out from the cow's neck and fell into the clay basin below.
Everyone then realized that Governor Hua had killed the cow with one knife!
What a fast knife!!
Immediately, there was a burst of thunderous applause.
Hua Xiong held down the cow and collected most of the blood. He waited until the cow stopped struggling before he stood up.
He looked at the soldiers and said, "Gentlemen! Kill the cattle and sheep, make soup and eat the meat!
Let’s have a good meal today!” (Hu Jun’s version of Qiao Feng)
Hua Xiong never tried to show anything deliberately, but his words and actions showed his domineering, heroic spirit and infectiousness.
With Hua Xiong's words and actions, the atmosphere, which had seemed tense because of the incident caused by Wu Qiong, became warm again.
The soldiers were full of laughter and joy as they slaughtered cattle and sheep in preparation for the upcoming feast.
This is the reward and honor they deserve after fighting a bloody battle and making great contributions.
They thought less and had full trust in their Governor Hua.
Since Governor Hua said that it would be no big deal to kill a guy like Wu Qiong, they also felt that it was no big deal.
However, there are also some people who seem worried.
Seeing that the atmosphere had been restored, Hua Xiong also showed a smile...
Before long, someone started boiling water here.
The steaming scene formed a sharp contrast with Wu Qiong, who had completely cooled down over there.
"My Lord...how about you go to Chang'an, report this matter to the Prime Minister in person, and ask for forgiveness.
Although you are the Prime Minister’s senior subordinate, but… things are different.
This person is also different from Li Su.
It is better to go to the Prime Minister and explain to him to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings. Don’t let this villain succeed in his evil plan…”
Yu Jin couldn't help himself in the end, and in a secluded place, he whispered to Hua Xiong and gave him sincere advice.
He had only followed this new lord for a short time.
He also felt that the new lord was very much to his liking, but he didn't want to change him so soon.
It made Yu Jin look like he was causing trouble for his master, which would not sound good if it were spread out...
Hua Xiong heard this, looked at Yu Jin and smiled, saying: "Don't worry, Wen Ze, things are not as bad as you think.
What I said before was not false. I can kill Wu Qiong, and it won’t matter.”
Yu Jin was also confused because of his concern.
Hearing Hua Xiong say this, his heart was moved.
He also thought about the interactions he had had over the past few days. His lord always seemed reckless in his actions, but when he thought about it carefully, he had never suffered any loss.
Yu Jin felt relieved a lot at once.
"My Lord, you mean..."
Hua Xiong smiled and said, "Prime Minister Dong has a capable person, and Li Ru is not an ordinary person..."
As he said this, he lowered his voice and said, "This morning, I received a secret order..."
When Yu Jin heard this, he felt completely relieved.
It turns out that all was calculated!
Only Wu Qiong is unaware and thinks he has succeeded!
Thinking back to this guy, after he came to Sishui Pass, he did all sorts of things, even deliberately provoking the lord to anger him and let the lord kill him, Yu Jin found it even more interesting.
I couldn't help but give a bright smile to Wu Qiong who was already cold.
This so-called celebrity turned out to be like this...
Time passed slowly. Here in Sishui Pass, the aroma of meat drifted everywhere along with the steam rising up.
The weather was cold, but the soldiers at this moment seemed not to feel the cold at all. They were all here, hugging the meat and eating, feeling so happy.
Morale is at an all-time high.
Zhao Cen held a clean piece of beef bone in his hand and glanced at Wu Qiong from a distance. Wu Qiong was still lying in a pool of blood and had become completely stiff. His mood seemed extremely complicated...
Here in Luoyang City, a man dressed in Confucian robes waved his hand and asked the servant who came to report something to leave.
After the servant left, the man's expressionless face revealed a deep look of sadness and admiration.
"Deyu, have a safe journey!"
He whispered.
"Your death will not be in vain, your deeds will surely be passed down through the ages and will be recorded in history!
When Yuan Benchu comes to Luoyang, gets rid of the traitor Dong, and supports the Han Dynasty, your deeds will surely shock the world!
You and your family will get the honor you deserve!"
"Just to deal with a lowly and reckless Hua Manzi, you actually sacrificed your life. It's really..."
On the morning of the second day, the news that Hua Xiong was dissatisfied with the reward and publicly killed Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate who represented Dong Zhuo to reward the troops, spread.
Immediately, in Luoyang City, a huge sensation was caused...
The man in Confucian robes, who had been prepared for a long time, headed towards Dong Zhuo's residence, intending to make a big fuss about this matter...
