Chapter 314: Pick up the silver needle with bare hands
After a night, Li Bu woke up from his study. Han Qing was still sleeping soundly. The sky was already getting a little brighter, although the sun had not yet appeared.
After getting up and walking outside, Li Bu played three rounds of nine-style martial arts. It is said that these nine-style martial arts are the memories left by Emperor Liu Xia. They were completely memorized by Li Bu before disappearing. From this point of view, that is to say,
, the time traveler Dongxia Emperor has quite a few "gold fingers".
Exhaling a breath, Li Bu finished the last set just as the sun appeared.
Walking in the garden, Li Bu began to think that the current situation was still very complicated.
First of all, Emperor Xiang hoped that Li Bu could catch the traitor, and at the same time, Li Bu himself also hoped that through the traitor, he could be promoted to the status of Emperor Liuxia.
The second thing is what happened next, the scene in Emperor Wuxia's palace, the play between Emperor Dongxia and Yu Hei, leading people around to think that the emperor might be a traitor.
Li Bu still had many opinions on this matter.
Maybe Emperor Dongxia at that time just wanted Emperor Wuxia to step down, but unfortunately Emperor Wuxia was stupid, so he accidentally let himself know about this matter.
So when something happened to Emperor Dongxia in the backyard, when he saw Li Bu and Emperor Wuxia together, he must have thought of something, so he planned to replace him.
It's a pity that Emperor Dongxia's instructions were a bit excessive. Maybe he didn't think highly of Li Bu's brainpower, so he underestimated the enemy, which led Li Bu to think of their true purpose. In terms of real merit, Han Qing was the most suitable.
After all, Han Qing also provided helpful guidance.
Lowering his head and looking at the ground, Li Bu wandered back and forth in the courtyard, while still thinking about a question in his mind: "Am I overthinking, or is the emperor really a traitor?"
There are two viewpoints, one is that he agrees with Emperor Dongxia's statement, and the other is that Emperor Dongxia really did what Li Bu thought and simply wanted to have people investigate the emperor and then dethrone him.
Precisely because everything is still speculation, Li Bu also felt that these two opposing views were untenable.
In this case, Li Bu thought it would be better for both parties to investigate together to see if what Emperor Dongxia said was right, or if he really meant to make people abdicate, but this is a story for another day.
At this moment, Emperor Dongxia wants to dethrone others. If his goal is to dethrone other emperors, then Li Bu is too lazy to meddle in his own business. If it is him, then he is really bored. After all, he is now
It's not the throne.
Therefore, investigating these things is a matter for later. The most important thing to do now is to find the traitor.
But the only question now is whether the emperor is a traitor.
Li Bu absolutely does not believe this. The king of a country is a traitor. It is not such an exaggeration to joke!
But if it's not the emperor, then who is it? Whoever can withstand the pressure of three emperors and not be exposed for a long time is really a master.
It was time for the morning court soon, and Li Bu planned to eavesdrop at the door, so he could get acquainted with the ministers and see if there was a traitor among them.
When it was time for the morning court, Li Buzheng was planning to go to the main hall to eavesdrop. At this time, a messenger came, and he heard him say in a sharp voice: "The emperor has asked you to go to court."
Li Bu raised his eyebrows. He originally planned to eavesdrop, but it seemed there was no need.
"I know!" Li Bu replied with a smile.
It's a pity that the eunuch turned around and whispered: "Tsk! What's there to be proud of? This guy doesn't even have a position!"
The voice was very low, but Li Bu heard it. He could only sigh helplessly. It seems that his popularity in the palace is not very good now, but it is right. In addition to real friends at the bottom, everyone in the palace
I am afraid that everyone at the top and even at the middle level is lonely and has no real friends.
When he came to the main hall, Li Bu walked directly in. He didn't know what the rules were, so he seemed very generous and inconsiderate. At first, he felt okay. After making a series of strange actions, everyone instantly became concerned.
Li Bu had a bad feeling.
The so-called strange behavior was just flipping through this and looking at that, and then sitting cross-legged on the place where the position of Emperor Liu Xia was written.
Everyone was disgusted when they saw this scene, and then they all whispered about Li Bu, and few of the words discussed were pleasant.
Not long after, Emperor Xuanxia, Emperor Dongxia, and Emperor Wuxia arrived. The emperor was the last one to arrive. At this moment, everyone was already standing in their positions. Except for Li Bu, everyone was sitting there.
They are all standing.
The emperor looked at Li Bu and asked directly: "Liu Xia, how is the investigation of the traitor going?"
At this time, Li Bu carefully watched the emperor's every move. It stands to reason that it was different when he said that he was a traitor and when he asked questions when he didn't know who the traitor was.
At this time, while the emperor was asking questions, all his actions and even expressions were caught in Li Bu's eyes.
After looking at it again and again, Li Bu finally shook his head. The emperor's expression was calm, and there was also a sense of ridicule. It seemed that this was just a question that did not require an answer. At the same time, he was sure that the emperor did not know who the traitor was.
, so it can be seen from this that Emperor Dongxia indeed has ulterior motives.
At this time, Emperor Xuanxia looked at Li Bu, then walked out of his position and stood in the middle, pulled out the knife hidden in his sleeve, pointed it at the emperor and shouted: "You really dare to ask, you are a traitor, stop pretending,
It’s not too late to regret now!”
Li Bu looked at Emperor Xuanxia in surprise. It seemed that Emperor Dongxia's plan had been used on everyone! He was really a powerful "chess player".
But to be honest, Emperor Xuanxia really had the courage to say this directly to the emperor, which basically saved the time of investigation and discovery, and ended his career neatly.
At this time, Li Bu's eyes were not idle. He was carefully observing the expression of Emperor Dongxia. His reaction was the same as Li Bu's own, which was surprise.
It seemed that he noticed Li Bu's eyes, so Emperor Dongxia smiled at Li Bu. Li Bu curled his lips helplessly, and at the same time thought in his mind that he was really a secretive guy.
Sure enough, as Emperor Xuanxia finished saying those words, the emperor's expression became a little stiff, and at the same time he looked angry: "Do you doubt me?"
The surrounding ministers laughed quietly, but it soon stopped.
Li Bu stood up at this time and asked: "I don't know if the emperor is a traitor, but I do know that the personal bodyguards around the emperor will always disappear for a while?"
When the emperor heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What Liu Xia said is quite reasonable. How did you know?"
Li Bu smiled and didn't say why. He just said, "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing unless you do it yourself!"
As Li Bu finished his sentence, a silver needle flew instantly. Li Bu's thunder brain predicted it in advance, and then accurately grasped it in his hand. Although Li Bu's martial arts speed was not good, his prediction was really accurate.
.
Li Bu took the silver needle in his hand and looked at it, then showed it to the emperor and said, "You see it! I'm afraid that if I say anything more, I've already started to take advantage of it."
The emperor frowned, then looked in an unknown direction, and finally shook his head.
