Chapter 6 2. Assassination of Yuan An

Sun Tzu's Art of War said that the way of war is tricky.This remark is completely applicable in officialdom.From ancient times to modern times, the officialdom is like a casino, some people go bankrupt and their families are ruined; The state of the world in the officialdom reveals how hot and cold it is.It seems that there is no field that can interpret Darwin's theory of biological evolution more intensely than the officialdom.Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest.The winner and the loser are willing to gamble and admit defeat.Scene after scene, I will appear on stage after you sing.Don't give up until the show is over.

Please see, Liu Heng went down, Liu Qi got up; Liu Rong's smoke was extinguished, Liu Wu's heart was itchy; Chao Cuo's head was chopped off, Yuan Ang was happy. In fact, Yuan An was not happy at all at this time.Yuan An saved Liu Qi's crown prince's fat position from outsiders, but what did he get?I got a lot, but they were all bad things. There are at least two bad things in front of him: one is Liu Wu's hatred; the other is to continue to enjoy Liu Qi's abandonment. Everything is a dream, everything is a passerby, nothing is eternal.Yuan An's flower of life has reached its peak.To put it nicely, he has completed his unique historical mission.To use a cliché in official circles, Yuan An's utilization potential and value are almost the same.The result could only be that it was time to send him away.

Just like a piece of sugar cane, after eating the sugar water, is there any reason not to throw it away? Therefore, when Liu Qi wiped out the Wu-Chu rebels, he immediately assigned him a new position: Prime Minister of Chu. Today's Chu State is not the former Chu State; today's Liu Qi is not the former Liu Qi; today's Yuan An is no longer the former Yuan An.Yuan An was Prime Minister of Chu for a period of time, and he only had two words: Depressed.If I add another word: very depressed. He was depressed because Liu Qi ignored him after he repeatedly wrote letters.The reason why Liu Qi didn't want to pay attention to him was that he wanted him to spend his old age in peace, and stop messing around like he suggested killing Chao Cuo before.

In the end, Yuan Ang found that his love honeymoon and political friendship with Liu Qi seemed to come to an end. If so, is there any need to continue playing? Yuan Ang decided to resign due to illness.Soon, Liu Qi approved his request.Therefore, Yuan Ang had no choice but to leave the officialdom and return home depressed. Politics created Yuan An's myth, but life restored Yuan An's appearance.After Yuan Ang returned to his hometown, he had no official and a light body, and had a good time at leisure.In cockfighting and dogfighting, there is no one who will not refuse; there are three teachings and nine streams, and those who come will not be rejected, the more the better.

If, just if, if Yuan Ang is happy and happy, he will live until his natural death.However, he is a person who is unwilling to be lonely.After Liu Qi said a word, he ran back to the center with joy, and helped Liu Qi smash the dream of the brother-in-law in Queen Dowager Dou's heart. Unbeknownst to him, since then, there has been a pair of eyes staring at him with hatred. Those poisonous eyes belonged to Liu Wu. At this moment, Liu Wu hated Yuan An so much that he gritted his teeth while sleeping.For a day that Yuan Ang does not disappear from the world, Liu Wu will be in a bad mood.So, he launched a murderous plan.

Liu Wu was not the only one who wanted to kill Yuan An.Two people also gritted their teeth with hatred for Yuan Ang, and they were both prominent figures: one was Yang Sheng, and the other was Gongsun Gui. These two are Liu Wu's think tanks.To be honest, they were the ones who encouraged Liu Wu to become emperor, and they were the ones who encouraged Liu Wu to kill Yuan An. The reason they wanted to kill Yuan An was very simple: Yuan An prevented Liu Wu from ascending to the sky, and those of them who were chickens and dogs naturally couldn't ascend to the sky either.If we can't ascend to the sky, don't even think about messing around on the ground.Therefore, they formed a gang and planned to send an assassin to assassinate Yuan An.

Therefore, Yang Sheng and Gongsun Gui made a blacklist, including Yuan An, there were a total of ten or so.Even if the wind in hell is very strong, there is still someone to accompany Yuan Ang to shiver.OK, so be it.Assassins, please split up. Assassin, alias killer.At all times and in all over the world, killer is a mysterious and cruel profession.It can also be seen from Hong Kong movies that the so-called killer recognizes money but does not recognize people.As soon as the money is in hand, without further ado, act immediately, and never give up until the blood seals the throat. In fact, not all of them.

There used to be a foreign movie called "This Killer Is Not So Cold", which told the story of a killer who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.This killer takes advantage of others to do justice for the sky; at the same time, he is also a good old man who sees injustices and draws his gun to save him. At that time, the assassin in charge of assassinating Yuan An didn't seem to have a strong sense of professional mission, at least he was not eager to get straight to the point.First of all, he wandered into Guanzhong and inquired about Yuan An's personality.As a result, the answers they got were very consistent: Yuan An is a very nice person, especially loyal.

Then, the unknown killer found Yuan An and told Yuan An what had happened: I received Liang Wangjin to assassinate the king, and the king is an elder, so I can't bear to assassinate the king.But there are more than ten batches of people who stabbed the king later, please prepare for it! These words roughly mean: I took Liang Wang's money, and I was going to kill you.However, you are too kind, I can't bear it.So I came here to tell you that there are more than ten groups of people coming, you'd better be careful. King Liang really did the same thing. In order to assassinate Yuan An, he even arranged ten groups of troops.I have to say that this killer is really not cold.Not only is it not cold, but it is also very kind, and even spit out the inside story.

We have no way of knowing whether the killer brother mentioned above was hunted down by Liu Wu's men.But, what we do know is that his kindness was only half done.After he warned Yuan Ang to be self-reliant, he turned around and disappeared. But what is surprising is that Yuan An didn't take his warning to heart.It's not wrong to play cockfighting and running dogs. Of course Yuan Ang had a reason, and he was not afraid of warnings from others.Because he is not a punk in the arena, he is a veteran of the arena. In fact, Yuan Ang looked calm but was depressed inside.What he was depressed was not Liu Wu, and what he was worried about was not the killer, but the fate in the dark.

Yes, fate.What do people seek in vain for the rest of their lives?Make meritorious deeds and earn thousands of titles?No, this is not my pursuit, Yuan An.Go to the end of the world with righteousness, and go to the temple with generosity;This seems to be the value of my existence, Yuan Ang. However, in the official world, the ways of snakes and rats are all immoral.The so-called ideal of faith is bullshit.Being an official is like climbing stairs. If you don't step on others, you will be stepped on by others.Ever since, the road leading to the front is not only stepping on others, but also preventing others from stepping on them.However, if you can step on today, can you step on tomorrow?If you can prevent today, can you prevent tomorrow?I stepped on Liu Wu yesterday, and today it's my turn to be stepped on. This is a fate that cannot be escaped. It's time to settle this old account between Yuan An and Liu Wu.life and prosperity are ruled by fate.God is doomed, why should I be that squeaky gopher? So Yuan Ang decided not to call the police or ask for help, but to wait for the second batch of killers to appear.He really wants to see how powerful the legendary killer is. Yuan An was waiting; the killer also acted while waiting. Sure enough, the second batch of killers immediately drifted to Yuan An's hometown like ghosts in the dark.When they came to Chu, after some scouting, they finally discovered that the reason why Yuan An didn't call the police was due to his own strength. Because Yuan Ang has a great reputation in the local area and is very popular.Whether it is a gambler, a prostitute, a hooligan, a hooligan, a rich man, a poor man, plus those three aunts and six women, neighbors, these people are born to be his protective clothing. In other words, it seems very unreliable to act on other people's territory. So, the killers immediately started the second plan: lure the snake out of the hole. The so-called leading the snake out of the hole means that as long as he finds ways to lure Yuan Ang out of his territory, he can act boldly.So, they immediately found a specific operation plan: funny. In the eyes of the killers, it is not enough to break into Yuan An's house, but it is more than enough to do some ghostly things on the roof of Yuan An's house.Sure enough, many strange things happened in Yuan An's house. For example: the dog at home died inexplicably; the fish in the fish tank jumped out inexplicably;Even, the concubine in the family was inexplicably... Yuan Ang is not a fool, he should be vigilant.However, unfortunately, someone told Yuan Ang that there are many strange things happening in your family, and it may be some evil spirit, so you should ask him. What's more unfortunate is that Yuan An really believed in this nonsense. The following story is very old-fashioned: Yuan Ang went out to ask for divination, and on the way home, the killer buried him and killed him in the field of Anling Guomen.
