"Hahaha, Mr. Shentu, are you here to announce the good news to me?" As soon as he saw Shentu appear, King Jin looked like he was laughing heartily.
"I'm really ashamed. There are many experts around the emperor, but he has never succeeded." Shentu Wei replied with a hint of shame in his eyes. After all, the most important thing in this plan was himself, and he let everyone down.
From this sentence alone, it is not difficult to see that Shen Tuwei at this time has not completely connected the sudden appearance of Xuefei with Shen Ao. He just thought that this woman was a master invited by Emperor Qianwen to protect him. In the end, I just protected Shen Ao together.
"Didn't succeed?" After hearing the news, King Jin was unhappy. He took such a big risk and hooked up with the prince, not to mention that he also made the Jin army completely stand on the opposite side of Da Gan. Now But being told that the plan failed, one can imagine how bad the mood was.
After all, King Jin was King Jin. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he did not express it on his face, because he had a better goal, which was to take Shen Tu as his own.
Like Emperor Qianwen, King Jin was also a man with good martial arts skills when he was young. They knew the importance of a master. Unfortunately, King Jin did not have a master master around him. The appearance of Shen Tuwei allowed him to see an opportunity. .
If you want to conquer this person, you can't say anything that hurts your feelings. King Jin's face just changed and then he laughed loudly, "It doesn't matter, the emperor is not dead, that is because his destiny is not over, I have two An army of 100,000 people will one day defeat him with dignity."
"The King of Jin is so grand, I admire him." He didn't hear the rebuke he deserved. Shentu was happy and flattered him.
"Hahaha, I admire Shentu for being the first. I also lack a master like Mr. Shentu around me. But one day, if you are unhappy staying with the former Princess Di, you can come to me at any time. I The king will sweep the couch to welcome you." The laughing King Jin said with sincerity.
Shentu is the former Princess Di, so there is really no need to offend this person unless necessary. Even if you intend to recruit, you can't be too straightforward, otherwise you will offend the vicious former Princess Di. The gain outweighs the loss.
"Thank you so much for King Jin's favor. If one day Shentu Wei has no way to go, he will definitely follow His Highness King Jin." Shen Tuwei did not refuse directly, but also said ambiguously.
Shentu thought that he would not betray the former Princess Di, but he still answered like this. It was originally the intention of the former Princess Di. He did not completely reject the King of Jin, but he deliberately held back. In this way, maybe one day, this matter will be solved. It can come in handy.
King Jin just said it casually. He knew that the master's state of mind was extremely firm and could not be shaken easily. However, he did not expect that Shen Tuwei did not refuse directly, but left a hope for himself. At that moment, King Jin was overjoyed and his skills were as high as his waist. Suddenly he tore off a piece of jade pendant and put it into Shentu Wei's hand, "Mr. Shentu, this jade pendant has been with me for twenty years. Now I put it in your hand. If you come to find me one day, just show me this jade pendant."
"So, I accepted it." Shen Tuwei did not hesitate, but took the jade pendant in his hand, and then put it into his arms. "Prince Jin, the plan does not work. I believe that Daqian's army will fight back next time to fight for Prince Jin." It’s safer to leave Daliang City.”
"Okay, I will listen to Mr. Shentu and withdraw his troops and rush out of Daliang City." King Jin nodded obediently. In fact, he would have left without Shentu's warning. Who was Emperor Qianwen? , he understood that he had made a surprise attack on the opponent before and gained some advantages. Now that there is no last hope, of course he will withdraw his troops immediately instead of staying here to continue the entanglement.
As for what will happen to the prince after the Jin army withdraws, this is not what the king of Jin needs to worry about at all.
There is no family affection in front of the emperor, and the Jin prince has many sons and daughters, so how can he care about a nephew?
There was also his biological sister, Concubine Li Huang, whom the King of Jin had no burden for leaving. This time he came to Daliang City, and this sister didn’t even do anything to see him. Apart from interests, he had already been with such a sister for a long time. Without family affection, death would be a good thing.
The King of Jin withdrew his troops. The retreat was very decisive.
The Jinjiawei guarding the imperial city discovered that the Jin army was retreating and did not choose to pursue it. Their task was to protect the imperial city. As long as they could do this, it would be considered a meritorious service. If they chased out, they would be hit by the Jin army. A trap, isn’t it asking for trouble?
By the time Shi Hongyun, Shen Yunyi and others rushed outside the imperial city with 40,000 silver-armored guards, the Jin army was no longer here. However, news came that the Jin army rushed out from the west city gate. Ran away.
...
Nancheng Military Camp.
Qiu You, the commander of ten thousand troops, is still waiting here for the return of four thousand Jin troops.
There was a cry of killing in Daliang City. Judging from the direction, it seemed that it was near the imperial city. Without a military order, Qiu Xun chose to stop the action quietly. He just ordered the 10,000 silver-armored guards to unsheath their swords and guns. , waiting for orders at any time to cope with various possible events.
Beside Qiu Fang, the leader of the hundred officials, Zuo Pushe Xia Youran, was sitting with his eyes closed. It was because of his personal guarantee that Qiu Fang let go of the four thousand Jin troops. He only needed to keep an eye on this person, and he was There is a reason to communicate.
Xia Youran seemed to be older, and she was mentally exhausted after staying up late. She sat there for a long time without finishing her words, as if she was about to fall asleep.
But his heart was not calm at all. On the contrary, he was very excited. He knew the whole plan in advance, and it seemed that he was already overwhelmed. Besides, the key to the mission was not to really conquer the imperial city, but to do it with less than ten thousand people. The human Jin army could not do this. They only needed to attract the attention of the Jinjiawei and find an opportunity to assassinate Emperor Qianwen.
Xia Youran is still confident about this, especially knowing that even the former Princess Di was involved in this matter, and the killer sent was a master-level kung fu expert. In Xia Youran's eyes, the success rate of the matter has at least increased to Eighty percent.
The 80% chance is enough for Xia Youran to give it a try. Especially considering Emperor Qianwen's attitude towards the prince and his family, the courtiers directly rejected the requests of half of the officials. The conflict between the emperor and the prince is about to become public. .If we don’t fight hard at this time, I’m afraid we won’t even have a chance to fight in the future.
Xia Youran, who was in an agitated mood, sat down with her eyes closed, and her mind had already begun to think about the government affairs after the prince came to power. As the true head of the officials, how he would help the prince to straighten out the government, how he would use nepotism and suppress dissidents.
How happy it is to think that one day, when all the civil and military officials in the dynasty are his, he will be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. At that time, the entire Xia family will rise strongly because of him, and the family will be proud of himself. So proud, what a scenery that is...
While he was still thinking about good things in his mind, there was suddenly a sound of dense footsteps outside the tent. Xia Youran stopped thinking and slowly opened his eyes.
"Is it over so soon?" When Xia Youran still had this thought in his mind and started to question, Dai Mubai in black robe walked into his eyes.
His eyes suddenly widened. The moment he saw that the person coming was Dai Mubai, Xia Youran's heart beat uncontrollably, and he had an extremely bad feeling.
Dai Mubai is the emperor's right-hand man and the most loyal person. He holds the emperor's guard and has the power to kill first and then report later. He is very powerful. For such a person, Xia Youran has thought about making friends with him before. See See if it can be used for it.
It's a pity that after a long time of hard work, there was no result in the end. On the contrary, it aroused the vigilance and dissatisfaction of Emperor Qianwen, which also proved that this person could not be persuaded and used by him.
Every move of such a person can represent the emperor's will, so what does it mean that he suddenly comes to the military camp?
"General Guard Dai?" The moment he saw Dai Mubai, Qiu Meng was startled for a moment, then clasped his fists and said hello, "But I don't know what the purpose of Commander Dai's late-night visit is?"
"Humph, of course we are arresting people. Come on, take Master Xia and General Qiu away." A flash of ridicule flashed across Dai Mubai's face, then he waved his hand, and several Emperor Guards walked out from behind. He came forward with the knife in hand.
"What are you doing?" Qiu Feng asked with a look of shock on his face, but he was not that scared. After all, even if something went wrong tonight, there would still be a big man like Xia Youran in front of him to take care of it.
"Your Majesty has issued an order, asking Mr. Xia to return General Qiu to the Tai Chi Palace. You two had better cooperate. If you have anything to say, His Majesty will give you a chance to speak." Dai Mubai stared at Qiu Heng with warning eyes. , intended to warn him that it is best not to resist, otherwise he will be guilty.
As for Xia Youran on the side, Dai Mubai didn't take it seriously. He was just an old man with no strength. Even if he was given a knife, he wouldn't dare to kill someone.
After receiving the warning, Qiu Rong immediately became honest. Since it was the emperor's will, of course he did not dare to resist and allowed the Emperor Guard to tie his hands tightly. Xia Youran wanted to resist, especially He cursed non-stop, "What are you going to do? I am the leader of all officials. I should shoot at Zuo Pu. I have not made any mistakes. Which of you dares to do anything to me?"
"Tell him to shut up." Dai Mubai lazily listened to Xia Youran's chatter here and waved his hand casually. Immediately, the emperor's guard stuffed a piece of white cloth into Xia Youran's mouth, making him speechless. Come.
The same scene not only happened in Nan Daying, but also took place in the residences of Jicai, the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue, He Yuan, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhou Lin, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishments. These are the core figures of the prince family. , this time it is going to be uprooted.
