The history of the Tang Dynasty was relatively complete in the year 3001. It was probably because the Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous dynasty in Huaxia.
The only dynasty with more information than the Tang Dynasty was the Qing Dynasty. Guhan didn't understand why the Qing Dynasty could preserve more information than the Tang Dynasty.
As a historical expert, Guhan understood his situation when he heard that Yang Guozhong had been killed. He was playing the role of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, and Yang Guozhong was the woman he loved the most, Yang Yuhuan, the brother of Yang Guifei, one of the four beauties, and the Prime Minister he trusted the most.
Now, An Lushan, the military governor of the three towns of Hedong, Pinglu, and Fanyang, who he trusted the most, had rebelled. Moreover, the rebel army was very ferocious and had even threatened the capital, Chang 'an.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was in a panic, so he fled to Sichuan with his favorite Yang Guifei. When they reached Mawei Station, the army rebelled, killed Yang Guozhong, and threatened him.
If Guhan wasn't wrong, they would force him to kill Yang Yuhuan.
As expected, the mighty general puppet knelt in front of him and begged, "Your Majesty, Yang Guozhong was killed for his treason. Yang Guifei shouldn't serve you anymore.
Your subject, Chen Xuanli, begs Your Majesty to kill Yang Yuhuan to appease the hearts of the people. "
Chen Xuanli said that he wanted to appease the hearts of the people, but he actually wanted to appease himself and the soldiers who killed Yang Guozhong.
They killed Yang Guozhong, the brother of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang's beloved woman, Yang Yuhuan. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang might not punish him for his own life, but if he didn't kill Yang Yuhuan, once Emperor Xuanzong of Tang reached a safe place, Yang Yuhuan would probably ask him to kill them to avenge Yang Guozhong.
Therefore, Chen Xuanli and his people had to kill Yang Yuhuan to prevent future troubles.
In history, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang hesitated for a long time when faced with Chen Xuanli's request. He kept saying things like, "I need to think about it," "I will banish her to the Cold Palace," "Yang Yuhuan's crime doesn't warrant death."
It could be said that in that situation, Tang Xuanzong had to kill Yang Yuhuan. Otherwise, the soldiers who had already killed Yang Guozhong would feel uneasy. If they weren't careful, they might even kill Tang Xuanzong to avoid future revenge.
Didn't Tang Xuanzong know that he had to kill Yang Yuhuan?
Of course, he knew that. He just couldn't bear to kill the woman he loved the most, one of the four great beauties of China.
However, Guhan was willing. Emperor Xuanzong's love for Yang Yuhuan had nothing to do with Guhan … Guhan didn't have the time to be like Emperor Xuanzong, constantly evading the responsibility. After hesitating for a while, Guhan directly answered Chen Xuanli, "Alright, I agree. I will demote Yang Yuhuan to a commoner right now. You will immediately go and kill her to bring justice to the world."
"Yes, Your Majesty!!!"
Chen Xuanli immediately kowtowed in excitement. Since Guhan agreed to kill Yang Yuhuan so easily and without hesitation, it meant that in His Majesty's heart, she was only a good-looking toy. This way, His Majesty probably wouldn't care about him killing Yang Guozhong.
Chen Xuanli immediately led a group of soldiers and rushed into the relay station behind Gu Han. The rest of the soldiers who were kneeling outside also heaved a sigh of relief, and the tense atmosphere in the entire scene also relaxed.
Although these soldiers were puppets, they had an aura that was even more solid than humans. Even Guhan couldn't handle this aura. He praised Lu Ban's technique again.
"Your Majesty!
Save me!
Your Majesty, Yuhuan doesn't want to die!
Yuhuan wants to accompany Your Majesty for the rest of her life!
Your Majesty, please save Yuhuan! "
Guhan heard a sad and moving voice behind him. The owner of this voice should be Yang Yuhuan.
Compared to Chen Xuanli, the eunuchs, and the other puppets, Yang Yuhuan's voice was exactly the same as King Yue's!
Wait, it was exactly the same as King Yue's!
Gu Han turned around abruptly and saw a group of puppet soldiers dragging a woman. One of the strongest soldiers was holding a piece of white silk in his hand and was trying to wrap it around the woman's neck. It seemed like he was planning to strangle the woman to death.
Thinking about it, it was a bit funny. How could puppets be strangled to death?
Their necks were made of wood.
However, Guhan couldn't laugh because that woman wasn't a puppet, but a real woman. Furthermore, she looked exactly the same as his King Yue.
It was completely the same. That was definitely a real King Yue and not a fake puppet.
"King Yue, are you there?
King Yue? "Guhan called King Yue through the sword mark, but there was no response.
Guhan touched the sword hilt on his back. It was empty. He didn't know when it had disappeared.
"Stop!"
Gu Han's sudden roar stunned all the puppets. The puppets that were grabbing Yue Wang also stopped their hands.
"You, let me ask you, are you King Yue or Yang Yuhuan?"
Guhan pointed at the woman that looked exactly the same as King Yue. He didn't know if this woman was the King Yue who disappeared behind him.
"Your Majesty, I'm Yuhuan. I'm your most beloved Yuhuan!"
Yang Yuhuan didn't know how but she broke free from the three soldiers that were grabbing her. Then, she stumbled all the way behind Guhan and tightly hugged his waist, "Your Majesty, Yuhuan knows that Your Majesty can't bear to part with Yuhuan. You can't bear to part with Yuhuan."
"Your Majesty!"
Chen Xuanli heavily knelt in front of Guhan and sincerely said, "Your Majesty, please put down your personal feelings and think about the hearts of the army and the people. Your Majesty!
Yang Yuhuan must die. She must be killed. Otherwise, the hearts of the army will not be at ease, Your Majesty! "
As if to prove Chen Xuanli's words, the thousands of puppet soldiers who were kneeling on the ground suddenly raised their heads and looked at Gu Han in unison. Their eyes were filled with determination, a determination that if they did not kill Yang Yuhuan, they would rebel against their superiors.
"Your Majesty!"
Yang Yuhuan, who looked exactly like King Yue, was frightened by this aura and screamed. She hugged Guhan's waist even tighter.
"Get up!" Guhan stopped Yang Yuhuan and carried her in front of him.
Guhan's hands wandered around Yang Yuhuan's body.
This was a pair of soft, living bodies, not a piece of wood.
"Your Majesty!"
Yuhuan's body softly stuck to Guhan's chest. Her body fragrance floated into Guhan's nose. Even this smell was exactly the same as King Yue's.
"I know, you're not King Yue!" Guhan straightened Yuhuan's body and then distanced himself from her.
"King Yue will never lean against my chest. Also …" Guhan pressed his hand on the crack between Yuhuan's buttocks, "Also, I can't pull out a sword hilt here."
"Your Majesty, are you still going to give up on Yuhuan and let them kill her?" Yuhuan looked at Guhan with teary eyes.
"I won't …" Guhan sighed. He placed Yuhuan on the ground and had her sit properly.
Guhan didn't understand what was wrong with him. Since he knew Yuhuan wasn't King Yue, why did he still go up?
Was he still the same person who could kill Fleeting Calendar without hesitation two weeks ago? Was he still the same person who could kill Fleeting Calendar with a single slash?
When did he have a woman's heart?
"Your Majesty!
Please reconsider! "Chen Xuanli kowtowed heavily on the ground when he heard Guhan's words.
"Your Majesty!
Please reconsider! "A thousand puppets spoke in unison. Their voices were so loud that they seemed to be able to shake the nine heavens.
Guhan drew his Qingpin sword and placed it in front of Yuhuan.
"There's no need to reconsider, or else I'll really regret it!
If you want to kill her, kill me first! "
After saying this, Guhan suddenly burst into laughter, "So it feels pretty good to say such immature lines."
"Your Majesty!
Sorry for the offense! "
Seeing that Guhan had made up his mind, Chen Xuanli kowtowed to Guhan one last time and suddenly stood up, "Thousand Bull Guards, raise your spears!
Send the imperial concubine on her way! "
Crash! A thousand soldiers raised their wooden spears at the same time and aimed at Guhan and King Yue behind him.
"Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, Sword of the Abyss!"
Guhan didn't waste any words. Five rays of sword qi shot out from his Qingpin sword and swept towards the neatly arranged puppets like a long whip.
The might of Sword of the Abyss' sword qi was terrifying. A few dozen puppets were hit by the sword qi and turned into a pile of splinters on the ground.
However, a few dozen puppets were undoubtedly not enough to deal with a thousand soldiers.
"Kill!"
The Thousand Bull Guards weren't afraid of the sword qi. They quickly charged in front of Guhan and stabbed at Guhan with their spears.
Guhan raised his Qingpin sword and blocked seven or eight spears in front of him. However, four or five spears stabbed at Guhan's back.
"Go to hell …" Gu Han turned around and chopped the two puppets behind him into pieces. However, a few more spears came stabbing towards him.
Although Guhan's swordsmanship was unparalleled, he was helpless against an army that could kill any martial arts expert.
His sword essence was only enough for Sword of the Abyss to release 25 rays of sword qi. Just now, five rays had only killed a few dozen. Even if it was multiplied by five times, it would at most kill 200. Against this army, it was like trying to put out a cart of firewood with a cup of water.
Moreover, at this time, Guhan's sword mark was Qingpin, so his physique was naturally that of an ancient sword Qingpin.
If Guhan had King Yue's physique, he could drag it out for one or two hours and slowly finish off these puppets.
However, his current physique was only a few times stronger than a mortal's. Let alone an hour, even five minutes of intense battle would be too much for Guhan's body.
