February of the fifth year of Jian'an.

Cao Cao decided to send troops to Xuzhou to attack Liu Bei.

Chang Xi's rebellion in Donghai County lasted less than a month, and was jointly suppressed by Xiahou Yuan and Zang Ba, and ended in a crushing defeat.

However, Liu Bei did not rescue Chang Xi, but only sent troops to Lanling to stop.

Changxi was trapped in Tan County and persisted for ten days.

Seeing that reinforcements were not coming, the former boss Zang Ba sent his old friend Sun Guan to persuade him to surrender. Chang Xi finally decided to open the city and offer surrender.

Cao Cao did not make things difficult for Changfeng, but transferred him from the East China Sea.

In history, Chang Xi rebelled twice. After the end of the Battle of Guandu, he rebelled again and eventually died at the hands of Zhang Liao. However, this time, Cao Cao seemed to have noticed some situations, so he did not continue to stay in Xuzhou as in the original history, but asked him to move him out of Xuzhou, so as not to stay in the East China Sea, and give him any unrealistic ideas, causing trouble in Xuzhou again...

After solving Chang Xi, Cao Cao finally made a free move to deal with Liu Bei with all his strength.

Just as Cao Cao attacked Xiaopei, a banquet began in Xiangping, Liaodong, thousands of miles away.

After ten days of consultation, Goguryeo's envoy Dai Gu finally reached an agreement with Chen Qun.

According to etiquette and law, both parties will sign a document as evidence of peace talks. This document must be signed by Liu Chuang.

After the negotiation and the document was signed, Liu Chuang set up a banquet to receive the Goguryeo delegation.

I am very happy to be in my heart.

This time, when we came to Xiangping, we were able to successfully negotiate peace, it was a great achievement. I believe this is also the true thought of most Goguryeo people. Although Goguryeo has repeatedly plagued Liaodong for success over the years, the small land of Goguryeo is ultimately not as prosperous and prosperous as the Central Plains.

The difference in national strength is too great.

Goguryeo can use natural environment and other factors to fight against the Han Dynasty, a giant. But if you want to go further, you will inevitably lack confidence.

In this case, you will be satisfied with being able to successfully negotiate peace with Liu Chuang.

Dai Gu changed into gorgeous clothes and brought the members of the mission to Liu Chuang's mansion.

Liu Chuang’s residence in Xiangping was Gongsun Du’s residence.

Now more than a hundred people in Gongsun Du's family have been beheaded by Liu Chuang during the New Year. The rule of Gongsun in Liaodong has become a complete history. Originally, many people persuaded Liu Chuang to be kind and forgiving Gongsun. But how could Liu Chuang agree?

Gongsun's family has been in Liaodong for a hundred years. No matter what, it has a deep foundation.

His subordinates are more widely distributed in Liaodong. Even now, many officials in Liaodong are promoted by Gongsun.

If you keep Gongsun, can you make him make a comeback?

Liu Chuang firmly believed that the principle of eliminating the roots was the ultimate truth. A woman's kindness, the only one who was in trouble was the one who was in the end. He and Gongsun had already had a deep hatred. He stole the foundation of Gongsun's family. Even if Gongsun Du was spared, Gongsun Du could not be grateful to Liu Chuang.

Since that's the case, just cut off the roots.

First, it can avoid trouble in the future, and second, it can also deter some people.

In fact, after Gongsun Du's family was killed, many Liaodong officials who had little thoughts immediately went to honestly and fulfilled their responsibilities in a regular manner. Revenge? They never thought about it! Gongsun's family has been wiped out. What's the point of talking about revenge?

If you don't do it well, you will be involved in yourself.

Liu Chuang was not bad at treating Liaodong officials, and he did not touch the interests of the powerful people in Liaodong.

In this case, who is willing to seek justice for a family that no longer exists...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

At the banquet, Liu Chuang looked full of spring breeze and smiled happily.

He raised his glasses repeatedly and invited Dai Gu and others to have a drink, which also made Dai Gu's heart gradually relax.

Not many people attended this banquet... Apart from Chen Qun and Chen Jiao attending, only the Goguryeo Prince Baqi attended.

Mi Zhu Yanrou and others were not present.

When people were drinking, a person stood up in the seat of the Goguryeo delegation.

He bowed and said, "Uncle Emperor, wouldn't it be boring if there is no singing and dancing to cheer up?"

"oh?"

"A sword dance is popular among the folk in Goguryeo. This time, we came under the order of the king and specially organized a sword dance troupe to offer it to the emperor's uncle.

Now that the wine is in full swing, why not let them dance their swords to cheer up?”

"Sword Dance?"

Liu Chuang immediately showed curiosity and turned his head to Baqi and asked, "Prince Baqi, is there any such thing?"

Baqi nodded and said, "This sword dance was introduced to Fuyu Kingdom from the Zhou royal family in the early years, and later learned it by me, Goguryeo, and has been passed down to this day. This sword dance requires a virgin sword dance, so it is also called the beauty dance. It is quite popular among my Goguryeo princes and nobles.

Generally speaking, how powerful a prince and noble are, the clues can be seen from the size of the sword dance troupe he has raised in his family.

This thing looks quite good when dancing. The emperor's uncle is extremely brave and may not be interested in it. He might as well watch it last time."

Liu Chuang nodded repeatedly and said to the messenger: "Since that's the case, please invite the sword dance."

The messenger's name is Yizhi Moli, and it is said that he is from the Yizhi tribe of the Goguryeo family.

When Yuzhi heard this, he immediately ordered people to go down and prepare. In a moment, he saw a hundred young women walking in from outside the hall. They were light and beautiful, with swords and weapons in their arms and came to the hall.

Accompanied by the sound of silk and bamboo, the sword girls danced gracefully.

They held swords and danced in the vocals of silk and bamboo, showing the woman's gentle and charming figure to the fullest.

Liu Chuang saw with relish. With the beat, he gently tapped the desk, as if he was immersed in it. A hint of complacent expression appeared on Daigu's face. He shook his head with the graceful dance of the sword masters. The rhythm of the silk and bamboo vocal music gradually became more and more intense. The dance masters' dance became faster and faster. In an instant, the sword light shone in the lobby and the sword shadows were heavy, which attracted Chen Qun and others to applaud.

But the smile gradually disappeared on Daigu and Baqi's faces.

The two looked at each other, showing a look of nervousness.

Just as the two were about to speak, Yumi Ochi suddenly threw the wine glass in her hand to the ground.

The dance posture of the hundred sword girls suddenly changed. The three sword girls who led the dance turned around and rushed towards Liu Chuang, shouting loudly: "Han Gou. Come on your life."

This sudden change surprised Chen Qun and Chen Jiao.

Baqi and Daigu rose up even longer and tried to stop them, but they were stopped by two sword girls. They raised their hands and fell, stabbing them to the ground.

Faced with the sudden assassination attack of the Goguryeo people, Liu Chuang seemed to be shocked.

He sat there, motionless.

Seeing three sword lights attacking, he didn't dodge.

"I dare to use the tricks of carving and insects to show off my ugly face."

Behind Liu Chuang, two people sat upright, one man and one woman.

One is about sixty years old and dressed in gray clothes; the other is a woman holding a wine pot in her hand.

At first glance, you would think that the old man and the woman were the close servants beside Liu Chuang. But the moment the three sword girls came to Liu Chuang, the woman raised her hand and threw the wine pot out, while the old man pulled out the sword, but he could not see how he got up. A figure flashed and arrived in front of Liu Chuang. The sword light in his hand was swallowed and spit out. Three sword lights... In the lobby, three screams came, and the three charming sword girls fell in the pool of blood in the blink of an eye. There was a blood mark on the center of each person's eyebrows, and blood splashed out.

"Quan'er, protect the emperor's uncle."

The old man shouted in a deep voice and stepped forward with a sword dance.

Don’t look at him as old as he is, but the Juque sword in his hand is like a soul-chasing sticker.

Every time he took a step, a sword girl fell in a pool of blood. The old man had no desire to be merciful and caring. He seemed to have no energy of fireworks, but he was extremely cruel.

At the same time, two gun-armed guards outside the foyer also broke into the lobby.

The two of them each held a spear in their hands, and they were extremely cruel in their actions...

"Miss Quan, please save Prince Baqi and Mr. Daogu."

"Here!"

With Liu Chuang's order, the woman standing beside Liu Chuang had already rushed out.

Two short swords appeared in her hand, with the sword light shining and the sword energy scattered... This is the killing method of Madam Quan, which is the same as that of the old man, but is completely different. The old man's sword technique contains murderous intent and ordinary people, and there is no fireworks at all; while Madam Quan's killing method is cruel, and his sword is ruthless, and he does not hold back at all. Liu Chuang sat upright on the couch chair, took out the Jiazi sword from under the table, and slapped it on the table with a clang.

"Longwen, Ji Bi, don't panic, let's accompany me to see a good show."

Chen Qun and Chen Jiao were very nervous at first, but when they saw the two gun-armed guards coming in, they immediately smiled and their nervousness disappeared.

They did not recognize the old man and the woman, but they recognized the two guards, which were Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan.

When Liu Chuang took out the Jiazi Sword, the two of them became more at ease.

Liu Chuang even had the Jiazi Sword with him, and there was no doubt that he had already seen the clues.

Looking out of the hall, the Feixiong Iron Armored Guard had surrounded the lobby... In this case, how could the two of them be nervous anymore?

A hundred sword princesses seem to be crowded with people.

But under the attack of the old lady Quan, Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan, it was like a mob.

"Erzhi Moli, if you want to die more, stay there and don't move, otherwise I will definitely make you live worse than death."

As early as the old man and Niang Quan took action, Yuzhi Mali had a premonition of something wrong.

But he didn't expect that the sword dance troupe he formed was so vulnerable.

Moreover, Liu Chuang was so cruel and ruthless. He was not moved at all, just like slaughtering chickens and ducks, without any mercy. He stood up and wanted to do something, but suddenly Liu Chuang's words sounded in his ears. In the lobby, screams were endless, and virgins who were just young fell in pools of blood and died... The scene was extremely strange, but there was a kind of cruel beauty.

Yuri Yuli trembled and picked up the sword from a sword girl who was lying in a pool of blood.
