When he saw these weapons and gunpowder, Qi Jue had a new plan in mind.
Qi Jue stretched out his slender jade-like hand and stroked the piles of gunpowder.
"I have heard before that the Prince of Northern Liang has a political disagreement with General Fu Cheng. The Emperor of Northern Liang is old and has been in bed all year round. In severe cases, he even skips the morning court.
Based on the grudge between the Northern Liang prince and Fucheng, once the Northern Liang emperor dies and the prince ascends the throne, this great general with great achievements will be dismissed from his official position and all military power will be taken back, or at worst, he will be dragged out and beheaded with some excuse.
The head is used to suppress the monarch's power."
Ji Jingxue understood instantly, "So Fucheng is afraid that if the prince successfully ascends the throne, he will not be the first to let him go, so he secretly stockpiles weapons and gunpowder in an attempt to rebel and usurp the throne?"
"If my guess is correct, Jingxue, you go immediately..."
He whispered instructions in Ji Jingxue's ear, then waved his hand, "Go and do it."
Ji Jingxue was a little worried, "Your Highness, you can't use your internal power now. I'm leaving you alone here. I don't trust you because of your humble position."
"Even if you don't use your internal strength, it's more than enough to deal with a Northern Liang commander. This is an order. Just follow it."
Time was running out, so Ji Jingxue couldn't delay any longer and got to work as quickly as possible.
Naturally, Qi Jue couldn't be idle and checked the entire secret room, but what was outside was either weapons or gunpowder, and there were no letters.
Could it be said that there is also a secret pavilion in this secret room?
Just when Qi Jue was about to look for the secret pavilion again, the sound of footsteps came.
Immediately realizing that someone was coming, Qi Jue blew out the fire and hid in the dark.
The person who came was none other than the commander-in-chief of Beiliang. Behind him, there were several cronies carrying several large boxes.
"General, the latest news comes from the palace. His Majesty is seriously ill and intends to abdicate to become the Supreme Emperor and let the Crown Prince succeed. Time is running out. We can no longer sit back and wait for death. The Crown Prince has always been very afraid of you, General.
He has asked his cronies to impeach you several times. If His Majesty had not deeply believed in the general, the consequences would have been disastrous. But once the prince ascends the throne, the first one to take action will be you, the general!"
"Yes, General, you have worked hard for the health of Beiliang. Instead of being grateful, the prince has given you the title of a great master. Your majesty is seriously ill this time. If we continue to fight back, I am afraid that we will be in trouble in the future."
No chance!"
The commander-in-chief of Beiliang did not speak, but touched the two swords, with extremely complicated emotions in his eyes.
"These two swords were personally gifted to me by Your Majesty when I returned to Beijing after my first victory. Your Majesty praised me as an indispensable pillar of the country in Beiliang. Who would have thought that once the emperor
Once you become a court official, soon there will be no place for me to stand in this northern Liang."
While speaking, the commander-in-chief of Beiliang clenched his swords, "They want too much and don't give me a way to survive. I made this choice. Will Your Majesty blame me?"
"General, you have devoted yourself to your majesty and served Beiliang, but what is the final result? Furthermore, the prince's party went too far and did not give us a way to survive. We took this step just to protect ourselves.
That’s all, what’s wrong with that!”
"That's right, General, you are loyal to only His Majesty. Now His Majesty doesn't have much time left. The prince trusts villains and treats ministers who are really hardworking. How can such an unkind and unjust prince be worthy of this supreme position?
,
What's more, the country of Beiliang was built by you, general, fighting all the way. Otherwise, how could the country of Beiliang be peaceful and peaceful? As long as you successfully ascend the throne in the future, this history book will be written by the victors. No one dares to say that you are not the best.
, General please make a decision as soon as possible!"
Before the commander of Beiliang could speak, he suddenly noticed something. He turned sideways suddenly, his eyes sharp and fierce, "There are outsiders!"
Hearing this, several other cronies quickly drew their swords, surrounded the commander-in-chief of Beiliang, and shouted: "Who dares to hide here? Come out quickly, or your head will be taken immediately!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sneer sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a cold voice came: "The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden. I didn't expect that General Fu, who had great military exploits, would one day embark on this road of no return."
Qi Jue clasped one hand behind his back, his posture as tall as a pine tree, and emerged from the darkness unhurriedly.
His gracefulness and grace were so great that even in this closed space, he still couldn't suppress his aura that was as cold as pine and wind.
Rao was the commander-in-chief of Beiliang who had met many people. When he first met Qi Jue, he couldn't help but sigh that it was a great blessing for the country that the Jokhang Emperor could give birth to such a glorious prince.
But this is a blessing for Dazhao, and a misfortune for other countries.
Obviously, the commander-in-chief of Beiliang did not expect Qi Jue to appear here, "King Dingbei, we haven't seen each other for a long time after the battle at Yueshan. I thought that next time we will have a decisive battle on the battlefield.
Negative, but I didn’t want to, but you brought it to your door yourself.”
"Whether it was me who sent you to your door, or whether it was your death, it's hard to say until the last moment."
Although the commander-in-chief of Beiliang showed no expression on the surface, he was already very energetic in his heart. Qi Jue was the opponent he least wanted to face.
This man was much younger than him, but he was a talented military strategist. Otherwise, he would have surely won the battle at Yue Mountain and killed his long-time rival Yong Yihou with his own hands.
However, after Qi Jue came to Yue Mountain for support, he suffered successive defeats and finally chose to temporarily withdraw his troops and return to the court in order to preserve the hard-won victory.
It was supposed to be a win-win situation, but was messed up by Qi Jue. Although I felt unwilling to do so, more importantly, I felt that Qi Jue was terrifying and difficult to deal with.
The commander-in-chief of Beiliang sneered, "King Dingbei, I admire your ability to lead troops and form formations. You have become famous at a young age, and your military talent is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people, but you must not forget.
This is within my territory of Beiliang, and the place where you are is my commander's mansion. There are all my people inside and outside. As long as I give my order, you will not be able to fly even if you have wings.
.”
Qi Jue sneered and asked calmly: "So, do you think I would be so unimaginable that I would come to Beiliang to die alone? If I were not completely sure, would I stand here?
Fucheng, you and I have been fighting each other for many years. You should know that I like to fight unexpected battles. Maybe while you and I are talking, your general's palace will become my own.
What’s in the bag, and you are the piece of meat on the chopping board.”
The commander-in-chief of Beiliang's expression changed, but he soon realized it and laughed twice: "Are you trying to deceive me on purpose? My eyes are all over the general's house. Once any foreign enemy steps in,
, will turn into ashes,
Therefore, not only do you have no soldiers, but you are very weak at this moment. I want your life with just a raise of my hands. But what I am more curious about is why you came under my nose.
