Chapter 94 The Raven

In the afternoon, in Taicheng, the emperor Chen Shubao, led by the eunuch, walked towards a side hall. At this time, Chen Shubao's face was as deep as water and was in a bad mood. The eunuchs and guards who were following him dared not come out for fear of causing trouble.

Today, King Chen Bogu of Xin'an and Yuan Xian of Shangshu went to Changganli to appease the people. This was a decision made by Chen Shubao after careful consideration. He wanted to show his magnanimity and make the people feel at ease. The result...

As a result, Chen Bogu was shot in the chest by an assassin in front of everyone. The onlookers immediately started to cause trouble again. Many imperial guards were beaten and trampled to death, and Changganli became in chaos again. If reinforcements had not arrived in time and dispersed the crowd, a new turmoil would be very likely.

When the news came, Chen Shubao laughed in anger. He felt that his kindness was trampled on by the unruly people at will, which was simply "tolerable, but who would not be able to bear it". He also remembered that the imperial concubine Zhang Lihua was kidnapped by the rebels and was brutally ravaged. Under the new and old hatreds, Chen Shubao no longer hesitated.

No matter what wrong is wronged or wronged, no matter how long it can be, the government does not need to worry so much. The unruly people are not worthy of sympathy at all!

After Chen Shubao made up his mind, he immediately dispatched troops to surround Changganli, divided his troops into the house to search for the traitors' accomplices, and then he had to recover the stolen goods, so that he would never be favored by those unruly people.

If someone dares to resist, he will kill him. If someone secretly hides the robbery and refuses to hand over it, the whole family will be verified and is not a slave.

Those who identify the traitor will receive rewards; those who identify the traitor will receive half of the money.

Chen Shubao felt that it must be because he was too soft-hearted before that the troubled people were getting more and more arrogant. He endured it again and again, but some people thought that the court was easy to bully. Therefore, we must rectify these troubled people and let them know what the law is.

As he thought about it, Chen Shubao remembered Zhang Lihua again. When he thought of Zhang Lihua being kidnapped by riots and was ravaged and killed, he couldn't help but breathe rapidly and his anger surged.

At this moment, the sound of "quacking" came from his ears, which made Chen Shubao even more irritable. He couldn't help but stop and look in the sound, but saw a few crows on the top of the palace beside him, calling in his direction.

Cai Tuoer, the eunuch who was following the emperor, quickly greeted him: "The official family, the crows are reporting good news, and I congratulate the official family."

In this era, although the crow, which was originally regarded as a divine bird, began to decline, it was still regarded as a lucky bird and a filial bird, and had not yet fallen to the status of a devastating bird. Therefore, like a magpies, there is a saying that crows are reporting good news.

Cai Tuoer was a eunuch that Chen Shubao trusted very much. At this time, the auspicious words he said were not turned into joy after hearing this. Although Chen Shubao did not turn anger into joy after hearing this, his mood improved a little. It was indeed a good omen.

Chen Bogu, the assassinated king of Xin'an, was shot in his chest. Fortunately, he was wearing armor and protecting his body, and was not injured too deeply by the arrows, so he actually had no worries about his life. The imperial guards escorted Chen Bogu and Yuan Xian returned to Taicheng. Chen Shubao asked Chen Bogu to live in the palace and sent imperial doctors to heal him.

Chen Bogu was assassinated and injured when he was doing things for the court. He left him in the palace to heal his wounds, which reflected the friendship of the emperor. Not only that, Chen Shubao also had to visit him personally to reflect his concern for the royal family.

King Chen Bogu of Xin'an was the fifth son of Emperor Wen Chen Lu. He had always been kind to his cousin Chen Shubao. When Chen Shubao was the crown prince, Chen Bogu often went to and from the East Palace to drink and have fun together, and was free and happy.

Chen Bogu lived an extravagant life, so that for a period of time, his family was poorest among the royal kings. At that time, Chen Xu, the father of Chen Shubao, could not bear it, and he often rewarded property to give his nephew "urgently".

Chen Bogu is good at having fun and is in his appetite for Chen Shubao. Chen Bogu is funny and good at talking. Even Chen Xu likes it very much. He often lets Chen Bogu enter the palace to attend banquets to liven up the atmosphere. When Chen Shubao succeeds to the throne, he often lets Chen Bogu enter the palace to accompany him to have fun.

Chen Shubao has always been close to Chen Bogu, so after Chen Bogu was assassinated this time, although his injuries were not serious, Chen Shubao also wanted to visit him, and by the way, the rumors about him excluding the royal family in the other branch were self-defeating.

In the side hall, Chen Bogu was lying on the couch with his chest exposed. The imperial doctor was treating the injuries on his chest. Because of the armor, Chen Bogu's injuries were not serious. However, because his chest was a bit special, the imperial doctor had to take more thought when dealing with the wound.

Chen Bogu was born with a tortoise breast (chicken breast). He couldn't show it while wearing clothes on weekdays. Now he was completely invisible. The imperial doctor dared not show any contempt and treated his wounds without blinking his eyes.

In fact, there is no need to take much effort to deal with the wound, but it is related to the royal family and the emperor ordered that it must be treated seriously. Therefore, when the imperial doctor treated Chen Bogu's wound, he did not dare to seem "too hasty" and made a big fuss.

Chen Bogu, who had originally closed his eyes and rested, opened his eyes, glanced at the imperial doctor, and then looked at the curtain on the top. His eyes were blanched, and he was still a rare "four-rolled eyes". So when Chen Bogu stared at someone, the person stared at him would feel a little uncomfortable.

After a while, there was a eunuch outside the hall saying that the emperor was coming. When the imperial doctor heard this, he quickly put all kinds of supplies on the side of the desk. Chen Bogu struggled to get up and was persuaded by the eunuch standing beside the bed.

The eunuch was worried that Chen Bogu's wound would burst, so Chen Bogu insisted on getting up to welcome the emperor. At the stalemate, Chen Shubao walked into the hall and saw this scene and said, "Xin'an, lie down and rest, don't let the wound burst."

"Officials, how can we be rude..."

"Okay, OK, now you are injured by arrows. The situation is special. I promise you to be exempted from gifts."

"Thank you, the official."

Although Chen Bogu did not salute, he did not lie down to speak. At this time, he sat down on the edge of the couch, looked up at Chen Shubao and talked to him, while the imperial doctor retreated aside.

"The official family, I wonder what the situation is going on in Changganli?"

"I have sent troops to search for the rebels' rebels and chase and suppress the stolen goods. Today, I think I will be arrested soon. Xin'an can rest assured."

Chen Bogu nodded when he heard this. Chen Shubao turned around and asked the imperial doctor how he was injured. After asking a few questions, he suddenly felt a wind coming from behind his head. Then a "bang" sounded, and a severe pain in the back of his head took a step forward and barely stood firm.

The eunuchs and imperial doctors on the side watched the scene in front of them in amazement: Chen Bogu, who was sitting on the edge of the couch, suddenly picked up the medicine bowl placed on the table next to him, stood up and swung his arm, and smashed it at the back of the emperor's head.

Then amid their screams, Chen Bogu made a second move at the back of Chen Shubao's head. This time it was even more cruel than before. Chen Shubao said "ah" and fell forward, with a scarlet hair on the back of his head.
