Looking back at Liu Xiangxiang, the former Princess Di said in a sincere tone, "Sister Xiangxiang, I want to know the marching route of King Jin after entering Daliang City and where he will live. It is best for King Jin to eat every day." Everything needs to be clear about what to say when meeting with whom, is there any problem?”
"No problem." Liu Xiangxiang quickly replied: "He Yuan, the Minister of Rites in charge of the reception, is from Prince Daqian. His subordinates have already found out, so he will be responsible for the reception this time. And he has been pestering Xiangxiang for a long time. Xiangxiang has always been interested in his taste and has not allowed him to succeed, but now he can make good use of it."
"Okay." This answer made the former Princess Di very satisfied. Although she had already received a written report from Liu Xiangxiang, now that she has met her and heard her speak so confidently, she is even more satisfied. "Find a way to solve this problem. Once someone is summoned to your boudoir, there is no need to worry about other things."
"My subordinate understands." Liu Xiangxiang knew that this was the trick her master wanted to use, and she agreed immediately without hesitation. The plan to lure He Shilang was three days ago, and now it seems that it is time to close the net.
"Mr. Shentu, I still need to trouble you." Princess Di's eyes immediately fell to the dark angle on the side. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to find that there was another person staying there.
"Master, don't worry." Shen Tuwei's somewhat sinister voice came out, giving people a creepy feeling in the darkness.
Liu Xiangxiang couldn't help but trembled after hearing this kind of sound. Fortunately, she had known that there was a top master next to her master, otherwise she would have been frightened and shouted at this moment. "Master, what happened to this matter? What we are going to accomplish is that the master is of great importance, so please leave Daliang City and stay away from dangerous places."
Listening to Liu Xiangxiang's concern, the former Princess Di smiled brightly and said: "It doesn't matter. Now Emperor Daqian's eyes are on Prince Jin, and he will not go all out to hunt for me. Besides, Mr. Shentu is here. , and no one can hurt me."
"That's right." The gloomy voice sounded again, "I am here, so there is no need to worry about the master's safety. Now I ask Miss Liu to carry out the master's order. All you need to do is bring Na He Yuan into your room."
"No." Liu Xiangxiang nodded in response, bowed again, then turned around and left the room. As soon as she left, the gloomy voice in the darkness came out again, "Is this person reliable? He has entered Daliang City and so on. Can Nian still hold on to his original intention? Otherwise, let’s deal with him as well later.”
"No. Xiangxiang is a good sister of this palace. Her whole family died at the hands of Emperor Daqian. There is no need to question her loyalty. Mr. Shentu can rest assured." The former Princess Di spoke up to vouch for Liu Xiangxiang.
"Okay, let me go." The gloomy voice gradually faded away until it disappeared.
After Shen Tuwei left, the former Princess Di looked at the corner on the left and asked, "Lu Kui, send someone to inquire around to see if there are any traces of the Emperor's Guard's activities."
"Nuo." A voice came out in the darkness, and Jier disappeared. Although Princess Di said she trusted Liu Xiangxiang, it can be seen from the fact that she sent someone again that she was also a very suspicious person. , maybe this is a common problem among those in power.
...
August 22, the 16th year of Hanchang.
The king of Jin entered Daliang City.
The troop of five thousand cavalry came in a mighty force, which looked very spectacular from a distance.
Ten Mile Pavilion in the north of Daliang City.
The prince and a group of civil and military officials from the court were lining up to greet King Jin's team. When someone shouted the word "coming", bursts of smoke and dust came into everyone's eyes. What happened next?
Then a continuous stream of cavalry came from far and near.
The uniforms of the Jin army were yellow. From a distance, the crowds were surging, like the water of the Yellow River. The crowds shouted and the horses roared, and the momentum was terrifying.
Among the welcoming team, some of the timid courtiers had already changed their expressions, and even more, their legs had begun to tremble. This was completely frightened by the appearance of the cavalry in front of them.
Some people say that if there are a thousand people, the earth will reach the sky. If there are ten thousand people, there will be no boundaries.
When the five thousand neatly dressed cavalrymen first appeared, the scene was truly shocking, far beyond words that can be described.
At the front of the cavalry, a military flag with the Chinese character Jin written in seal script was flying in the wind. With the troops behind it, it seemed as if the Chinese character Jin was about to come out of the flag and fly in front of everyone.
More and more courtiers were horrified by the scene before them. But some were unmoved. On the contrary, they were very excited. He is the current crown prince of Daqian, Tang Xin.
Ever since he wrote the letter to his uncle, King Jin, the prince has been in a state of anxiety. He doesn't know whether his uncle will agree or object after reading the letter; whether he will support or be angry. If his uncle hates him because of this,
I am afraid that not only will he lose military power, but his position as prince will also be lost.
In that case, it is really a waste of time and nothing will be gained in the end.
Several times, when he woke up in the middle of the night, the prince was covered in cold sweat. He even regretted more than once whether he was too impulsive. His uncle had worked hard to reach this point and had 200,000 troops. Why should he hand it over to himself?
?Is he too whimsical?
Fortunately, this kind of anxiety and tension did not last long. A reply from his uncle arrived, and he actually agreed to hand over the military power to him. He also said that although he was the king of Jin, he was a minister of Daqian. Since the prince is the future world
The Lord just wants military power, so why not give it up?
The prince was deeply moved by this reply. At that moment, he swore in his heart that when he became emperor, he would treat his uncle and his descendants well.
From that day on, the prince began to look forward to his uncle coming to Daliang as soon as possible and handing over the 200,000 Jin troops to his hands as early as possible. Now he finally waited for this moment, looking at the mighty and domineering five thousand cavalry.
, the prince sighed in his heart, these soldiers will be under his control from now on. With such strength, who has the qualifications and ability to compete with him for the throne?
At that time, didn't he say that he could kill whoever he wanted? At that time, there would be Prince Qing, Prince Xiang, and other underage imperial brothers. Oh, and the Duke of Zhongguo, Shen Ao, was just a mere one.
The minister dared to hurt his own prince, the heir of Daqian, so he must know that the consequences of provoking him were far more than he could bear.
When the time comes, all these people are going to die, and he wants to see these people suffer and die with his own eyes. If he is in a happy mood, he doesn't mind cutting it twice himself. It must be an honor to be able to send them on their way by himself, right?
.
Among the cavalry team, a carriage drawn by five horses was protected by the cavalry and mixed in the team. The ancients had rules and regulations for carriages. For example, the emperor drove six, the princes drove five, and the minister drove four. , three are officials, two are scholars, and one are common people.
Sitting in a huge stable pulled by five horses, King Jin was following the ups and downs of the car. There was no sign of fatigue on his face. On the contrary, Mr. Tian Yu, who was following him, looked a little ugly. He obviously couldn't stand the car. The Pain of Marrowton.
"Haha, Mr. Tian, are you tired? Come here, stop and rest for a while." With laughter, King Jin opened the horse curtain, looked at the team in front to greet him, and gave a soft drink. .
"Hey!" The groom immediately stopped his horse, and then the entire team also stopped moving forward, stopping four miles directly in front of the prince and his party.
"Your Majesty, I can hold on for a moment." Tian Yu saw that the team had really stopped. He quickly opened the horse curtain on one side and poked his head out. He saw the officials and ministers who were greeting him a few miles away. , then he spoke to King Jin in an urgent voice.
"Don't be in a hurry. After traveling for such a long time, you should take a rest. Why do you have to insist on it?" King Jin said with a half-smile on his face.
At this moment, Tian Yu originally wanted to say something, but when he saw that King Jin had closed his eyes and looked like he was about to rest, he quickly closed his mouth. He could see clearly at this moment, and he was afraid that Without any reason of his own, King Jin would have stopped the convoy. This was not a rest, it was clearly a show of strength to the ministers, and it was to show that the initiative was on their side.
Tian Yu, who wanted to understand, did not say anything, but also closed his eyes. He had never practiced martial arts, so he was not as brave as these soldiers. His body, which had been shaken for nearly ten days, was really too much to bear.
King Jin's motorcade stopped four miles ahead. It neither moved forward nor retreated, and no one came to explain the reason. This scene fell into the eyes of other courtiers, and naturally they were all filled with indignation. appearance.
There were also some courtiers who were originally dissatisfied with the King of Jin, and belonged to other princes' lines, and they even murmured in a low voice, as if they were arrogant, arrogant, disrespectful, and disrespectful, and the words rained down on Jin. On the king's body.
It is true that King Jin is the uncle of the prince, but the future of Daqian belongs to the prince. After the prince becomes the emperor, King Jin can only be a minister. What King Jin is doing now is disrespectful, and it can be more serious. , he didn’t take the prince seriously at all, which was an insult.
It was impossible not to listen to the comments of the people around him. Because of everyone's comments, the prince's original excitement disappeared and was replaced by anger. But at this time, he could not complain, and the military power was not yet available. Now is the time to attack my uncle. "Shilang He, go and ask what happened. Is it because the King of Jin is too tired from all the hard work?"
The prince took the initiative to find an excuse for the King of Jin, and also sent He Yuan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, an important minister of his own line, to ask questions.
He Yuan is a fat, middle-aged man who is less than 1.7 meters tall but weighs 180 pounds.
