35. Hijacking
"Lian Ying, what you said is true?"
"Yes, I was originally just a spy arranged by King Yu to be around His Majesty, and he threatened me with my parents, so I leaked a lot of news about His Majesty......"
Su Jin smiled slightly, pressed his hand on his shoulder, and said softly: "I understand your troubles, don't worry, I will definitely help you rescue your parents afterwards, thank you for the news of me." ”
"Thank you, but don't worry too much, although His Royal Highness King Yao has conspired with King Yu, but I have already stolen their marching formation, even if they work together, Your Majesty can break it individually!"
"I'm a good Ying'er, I really rely on you!"
Lian Ying raised his face, a sweet smile hung on the corner of his lips, watching Su Jin's heart move slightly, his fingertips down the other party's collar.
"Majesty, do you like me?"
"Of course." Su Jin's fingertips pressed against his sideburns.
"And what about His Royal Highness King Yao?"
"What did you ask him for?" Su Jin's eyes were slightly cold.
Lian Ying said softly: "I once heard His Majesty call his name in his sleep. ”
"Really?" Su Jin touched his face and said noncommittally, "He is my enemy now, I will definitely defeat him, and I will ...... when the time comes."
Lian Ying looked at the smile on his face and frowned.
"陛xià, 陛xià!"
Su Jin lowered his head: "What's wrong?" ”
Lian Ying said quietly: "I betrayed King Yu for His Majesty, I only hope that His Majesty will not disappoint me!" ”
"That's nature!" Su Jin hugged him horizontally and said with a low smile: "Ying'er is so good-looking, how can I give it up!" ”
When Su Zhuoju woke up, his head was still a little dizzy, he sat cross-legged and breathed for a while, and then got up to observe the surroundings, this was obviously the dungeon of Yuwang's Mansion.
It's very quiet, as if only he is alone.
Su Zhuoju plucked the hairpin from his head, broke the jade on it, took out a pearl-sized white pill from it, and held it in his mouth.
Vaguely feeling that the sealed internal force had fluctuated, he hurriedly urged the mental method, half a sound, and finally broke through the obstacle with his true qi, and the internal force was almost half restored.
He paid attention to the voice for a moment, there really seemed to be no one here except him, Su Zhuoju was not in a hurry, now was not the time to act rashly, as long as he recovered his martial arts first, no matter how bad the situation was, it would not be a death situation for him.
King Yu should start acting now, Su Zhuoju doesn't know how long it has been, and then someone came in.
It's not the person who honors the king, but Tan Wu.
"Lord Wang, come with me!"
"How did you get in?"
Tan Wu was stunned for a moment and sighed: "Do you know how long you have been in a coma, Lord Wang?" ”
“……”
"It's been two days, and now it's been fighting outside!"
Su Zhuoju frowned, he didn't expect it.
"King Yu can't take care of you anymore, he and King Qi's soldiers and horses have been ambushed, and now the two sides are fighting fiercely, and our people in Yaowang's Mansion still need Your Highness to preside over the overall situation."
"How is it so fast?" Su Zhuoju slashed on the iron lock with one hand, and then twisted it hard, breaking the lock hard, he pushed open the cell door and walked out, looked at Tan Wu, who was already dumbfounded outside the door, and asked.
"According to the spies in the palace, it was the person sent into the palace by King Yu who rebelled, and it seems to be that Lian Ying Gongzi!"
Su Zhuoju didn't expect that when they left the underground palace, there were not many people guarding outside, and it seemed that the situation was indeed not very good.
"This could be an opportunity." Su Zhuoju directly ordered, "How many of us are there?" ”
"There are still 200 elite soldiers in the palace, and 10,000 outside the city."
Su Zhuoju thought for a while, and then said: "You and I go to see the emperor, and by the way, take my token to order those troops outside the city, they will encircle and suppress King Yu's army from behind." ”
"Is the prince going to help His Majesty?"
Su Zhuoju glanced at him and said lightly: "Force their army back into the city, you have to use the banner of the emperor, and when the time comes, King Yu thinks that he has a plan, and he will definitely fight to the death with the forbidden army." ”
"When they're both defeated, we'll come out and clean up the pieces."
Tan Wu frowned: "Lord Wang, this ......"
"How?"
"Oh, I mean, why did the prince return the token to His Majesty in the first place, if the prince has the token of the forbidden army in his hand today and has his own 10,000 troops, then even if he is the king of honor, it cannot be the opponent of the prince! Why should you pretend to be captured for this sin? ”
Su Zhuoju looked up at the undulating clouds and the faintly hidden glow.
"The Forbidden Army is the Emperor's army, and it may not be a problem for me to order them to put an end to the rebellion, but what if I ask them to raise their swords towards the King? They may not be obedient, so what use do I want them? It's better to give it to Su Jin as a favor. ”
"Your Highness...... Wise! Tan Wu lowered his head and sighed secretly.
"What about Chen Jun? Has he arrived in the capital? ”
Tan Wu paused before saying, "Not yet, counting the footsteps, it should take two or three days to arrive!" Does Your Highness want to see him? ”
Su Zhuoju paused: "If he comes, you let him come to see me immediately!" ”
They walked all the way through Yuwang's Mansion, and in the face of the guards who rushed out, the two of them easily solved most of them, looking at the guards who fell all over the ground, Su Zhuoju suddenly had an idea.
"You don't need to go to the palace, you go directly to command the army, and then let Tan Si come over."
"Huh?" Faced with Su Zhuojuo's changed order, Tan Wu was slightly stunned.
"I'm going to see King Yu."
King Yu sat in the military tent, his face full of gloom: "I really haven't thought about it!" Having made a chess piece wrong for the whole game, we now have a half-chance of success at best. ”
"Hmph, you are too overestimated, the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable the situation will be for us, at the latest tomorrow night, if we can't control the capital, wait for the arrival of other armies, we will be finished."
"What then?" King Yu slammed the table, his face full of anger.
King Qi's slender eyes narrowed, and then said, "I heard that you caught King Yao the day before yesterday." ”
"Yes, I originally wanted to use him to threaten the emperor, but I didn't expect the emperor to do it so quickly, and before I could make a move, he sent an army to surround my palace, and I didn't care about him for a while."
King Yu thought for a moment: "You mean, let me bring him over to threaten the emperor?" ”
King Qi showed a gloomy smile: "Not bad. ”
"But the emperor's feelings for him are all news from that bastard, I can't believe him now!"
"Now what can you and I do, whether it's true or not, try it first, anyway, there will be no loss, and with King Yao in our hands, his army outside the city, that's ours!"
"That's good, I'll send someone to the dungeon at once!"
Su Zhuoju ordered Tan Si to change into the clothes of the guards in King Yu's mansion, and then asked him to put the knife on his neck, and the two rushed all the way to King Yu's military tent, and happened to meet the soldiers sent by King Yu on the way.
Tan Si opened his mouth and said that there were people from King Yao who came to the dungeon to save people, and when he found out, he took the first step to coerce King Yao to come out, and now he is ready to go to see King Yu.
The soldiers were not too suspicious, and led them to King Yu's military camp.
Su Zhuoju's hands were tied with hemp rope, and he followed Tan Si into the military tent, where there were two people, King Yu and King Qi, and in addition, there were several guards.
Together with the two soldiers who escorted them in, there were eleven people in all.
Su Zhuoju gave Tan Wu a look, and the two of them started at the same time.
The snow bright soft sword brought up the sword light of Sen Sen, and Su Zhuoju's wrist flicked slightly, and the swinging blade was as thin as paper, and gently slid through the throats of several guards.
That speed was too fast, and after a few guards took three steps, they reacted, and fell down with reluctance in their throats, Tan Wu had already dealt with the two soldiers.
The sword in Su Zhuoju's hand was agitated by his true qi, and he suddenly straightened as loose, and he raised his hand to raise the blade of the sword.
"You, you ......" King Yu was so frightened that he couldn't speak.
Su Zhuoju evoked a sneer: "Are you surprised?" You think too highly of yourself. ”
"King Yao, this time it was indeed our mistake, but what good will it do you if you kill us now?" King Qi said suddenly.
"I will keep one of the two of you, and I will give him to Su Jin."
"What do you mean?" King Yu didn't understand, but King Qi thought of something, and couldn't help but say.
"So you want this world too!"
Su Zhuoju said lightly: "I don't care if the world is not the world, I just want to change to an emperor who is obedient enough not to mess around." ”
With a movement of his wrist, the sword turned sideways, and then returned to his hand, Su Zhuoju turned around and took the white cloth to wipe the sword, and the blood-stained cloth fell to the ground.
At the same time, there was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground behind him.
Su Zhuoju's gaze slowly stopped on King Qi's body.
"What will you do later, you don't need this king to teach you, right?"
"It's nature." King Qi said reluctantly, he glanced at the corpse under his feet from the corner of his eye, and his heart was cold.
Su Zhuoju took out the wooden box, put King Yu's head in it, and wrapped it in cloth.
Finally, he walked up to King Qi and said slowly: "You can speak out now, let those soldiers come in and arrest me, and whether I can escape at that time may not be necessarily, but you will definitely die." ”
King Qi looked at his expressionless face, but his eyes were full of killing intent, so he could only say helplessly: "Don't worry, I won't be smart!" ”
Su Zhuoju raised the corners of his lips: "Very good." ”
Chen Jun had been in a hurry for a few days, and finally came to the capital, three days faster than originally expected, but before he passed the city gate, he didn't feel right.
He let go of the horse, went alone, climbed over the wall into the city, and went directly to the palace of King Yao.
I happened to see Tan Wu at the door.
"Su ...... What about His Royal Highness King Yao? ”
"Chen Jun, you're so fast!" Tan Wuyi was stunned, he looked at the token in his hand, and his eyes flashed.
"What about His Royal Highness King Yao?" Chen Jun asked again.
"He's in the hands of King Yu."
"How so?" Chen Jun frowned, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Tan Wu sighed and said slowly: "King Yu and King Qi are preparing to rebel, and now they are fighting with His Majesty!" The prince also accidentally fell into the hands of King Yu. ”
"Impossible!" Chen Jun said decisively, "I know very well what Su Zhuoju's skills are, if King Yu was so powerful, he would have ...... Anyway, what's going on? ”
Tan Wu thought for a while and said, "The prince is in danger and is ready to take advantage of this opportunity to assassinate the emperor." ”
"You mean, he's in the palace now?" Chen Jun asked.
Tan Wu nodded.
Chen Jun didn't doubt it anymore, he said: "Since this is the case, I won't trouble you, I'll go by myself." ”
Tan Wu smiled and said, "It's okay." ”
After confirming that the other party had left, he hurriedly found someone to send a message to the one in the palace.
When Su Zhuoju returned to the palace with King Yu's head, Chen Jun had just left, and neither of them thought that this time they missed it, and it would lead to so many things later.
Chen Jun took advantage of the night to arrive in the palace, he naturally couldn't be unfamiliar with this place, but after a few palace changes, he didn't see Su Zhuojuo's figure, he didn't think he would miss it so coincidentally, so he went to the emperor's bedroom without believing in evil.
The bright yellow bed tent inside fell lightly to the ground, and the incense was sultry, and the candlelight was a little dim, and it was not clear to see it in a drowsy way.
Chen Jun vaguely saw a person on the bed, with green silk scattered hair, a perfect side face, only wearing a white undershirt, a thin body, a waist and limbs, and it seemed that he could not hold it in time.
He touched the dagger at his waist, and the cat lunged in.
The man was a bit like Su Zhuoju, and Chen Jun slowly approached him, his wrist slightly tightened.
Lian Ying turned around and smiled softly at him.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Jun looked at the four black-clothed people who suddenly appeared behind him out of the corner of his eye, but slowly relaxed his heart.
"It turns out that Tan Wu has already defected."
Su Jin walked out from the door and shook his finger: "I can't say that, Tan Wu was originally the person arranged by my father and the emperor to be by Su Zhuojuo's side, although his original intention was to protect him, but in this situation, he is obviously still loyal to me!" ”
Chen Jun shrugged and smiled.
"Your Majesty is confident?"
Su Jin shook his head: "Chen Jun, you were originally a secret guard of the royal family, why did you abscond?" ”
Chen Jun thought for a while and said, "Probably because Su Zhuoju's salary is relatively high!" Eat and live, and the person is relatively free. ”
"Oh?" Su Jin raised his eyebrows, "Is that all?" But I think no amount of money and freedom can compare to power, right? ”
"-As long as you are willing to surrender, I can not blame the past, and even give you the status of the commander of the forbidden army in the capital, from now on, you will be a close minister that I rely on, how about it?"
"Very good conditions." Chen Jun smiled, "As long as you answer me a question, what qualifications does a royal secret guard who has absconded have to persuade a dignified emperor to surrender in person, and he does not hesitate to make a heavy promise, this thing is too good!" ”
"You're right, I really don't need to be so polite and virtuous, but this answer, only after you promise to surrender, I will sue you."
Chen Jun touched his nose and said helplessly: "Since this is the case, then I can only express ...... It's a pity! ”
He rubbed his waist with his left hand, took out a blade, threw it casually, and with the other hand felt out the dagger, turned around a few times, and quickly rushed to the emperor's side, and the knife was on his neck.
No one expected him to be so fast! The action will be so crisp and neat!
None of the four secret guards present reacted!
Chen Jun looked at Su Jin and showed a mysterious smile.
"I've always been cautious, I'd rather miss out on some opportunities than take risks."
"- Your Majesty the Emperor, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
