Chapter 164, Trouble with Henchmen 2

Wang Jian got the letter, and immediately sent people to carefully look for a suitable house in the city, and finally found a big mansion, the owner of this house is still there, Wang Jian bought it with silver, how dare the owner not sell it? These thieves are really reasonable, even if they robbed his house and killed all the people in his family, he would stare dryly.

After buying the house, Wang Jian sent someone to make the spirit cards, which were placed on the case in turn as an ancestral hall.

Everything in the house was handled according to the specifications of the Qin period, and some things could not be found, and the king of Qin ordered that everything should be simple in the war-torn situation.

The king of Qin found Li Yan and asked him to write a sacrificial text, telling him not to be too long, preferably short, Li Yan spent half the night working hard and wrote it out and handed it to the king of Qin, and the king of Qin was very satisfied after reading it, so he decided to worship his ancestors on the sixth day of the first month.

On this morning, the king of Qin took Li Yan and five hundred iron horses out of Xi'an and came to Xianyang. Wang Jian led the King of Qin to the temple, and the drummers on both sides played ceremonial music.

Wearing a black dress and a crown, the King of Qin walked to the spirit tablet, faced the thirty-six generations of King Qin, knelt and bowed, and then read the sacrifice:

Great Qin Hundred Generations, Ancestors and Ancestors, Yangon Bowing to Virtue, Holy Observation and Hearing. Unworthy descendants win the government, humiliate the ancestors, dirt and spiritual position, adopt sons and do not teach, hide treachery and filth, so that the society is overturned, the temple collapses, the heavens send disasters, and a hundred deaths. Fortunately, the ancestors had spirits, so they did not let Qin die, and they were resurrected for thousands of years. Now win the government to return to the homeland, rebuild the hall, the ancestors are not far away, enjoy my steaming, the ancestor is here, drink a drink, bless my Qin, and regain the glory.

After reading it, the king of Qin fell to the ground and wept bitterly, apologizing to the ancestral spiritual throne.

Li Yan stepped forward and gently helped him up, and the King of Qin wiped away his tears, and ordered that after the sacrifice was completed, the spirit displacement was moved into Xi'an City.

There is no way to do this, Xianyang City has long been dilapidated, the temple was built here, the official army came, it was not easy to preserve, and it was only moved into Xi'an City.

After the worship, the king of Qin ascended to the throne in Xianyang City, proclaimed the world, and was named the king of Qin.

This time the title of king is not comparable to that time, and the meaning of being called king is to break away from the current court control and make it clear that he wants to set up another country. Since ancient times, anyone who dares to claim to be the king without permission will definitely be surrounded and suppressed by the current dynasty. It stands to reason that King Qin should not be the king at this time, after all, there is only one Xi'an City in his hands, and the foundation is not solid.

But King Qin was also well thought out.

Even if he doesn't claim the title of king, the official army will focus on besieging it, after all, Xi'an is an important place, which is related to the entire Guanzhong. And the king can stand up and call on the world, at this time, the Ming Dynasty has long been broken, and the people have lost trust in the court.

So on the sixth day of the first month of the sixth year of Chongzhen, King Qin officially proclaimed himself king and proclaimed the world.

After becoming king, he kept a night in front of the spirit tablet, and then the next day, he moved the temple back to Xi'an and placed it in the governor's palace.

The matter of King Qin claiming the title of king is definitely a big deal, but for the two of them, they feel very uneasy.

These two people are Fan Ju and Ziyi.

They were the leaders of the Qin army, but this time the King of Qin went to Xianyang to claim the king, and for such a big event, he didn't ask them to accompany him, but only brought Li Yan with him, which made the two of them feel deeply afraid.

This shows that the King of Qin no longer trusts them.

The courtiers who lost the trust of the monarch had only two ends, one was deposed, and the other was given death.

As for why the King of Qin would distrust them, the two of them didn't know, this matter came very suddenly, especially Ziyi, he took Xi'an and made a great contribution, since the King of Qin came back, he has been gentle and kind to him, but he has been deliberately alienating him in the past few days, which is really incomprehensible.

So the two decided to learn some information through King Qin's guards.

Ziyi was the commander of the Qin army for a long time, and he was very familiar with the people in the army, so he found a Qin army with a good relationship and asked him.

This Qin army didn't dare to say it at first, but then he couldn't withstand Ziyi's offensive with connections and money, and finally revealed a little information: In the evenings of the past two days, the King of Qin always secretly summoned a person, who came with a black robe and a black veil on his face, and no one could see his face, and he didn't know who it was. On the way back and forth, only Li Dang accompanied him, and there was no one else.

Ziyi and Fan Ju were very frightened when they got the news. So they gave this Qin Jun a lot of money, and asked him to inquire about this person, even if it was to listen to him say a word.

The two of them did not spend their money in vain, and early the next morning, this Qin army hurried to find Ziyi and told him an astonishing news.

The king of Qin summoned the man again last night, and the Qin army deliberately changed places with a companion and stood very close to the door of the house, and he vaguely heard that the king of Qin called the man "general".

This news shocked the two, because there are only two people who can be called generals in the Qin army, one is the current general Wang Qian, and the other is Bai Qi.

King Qin summoned Wang Qian, there was no need to be so mysterious, he could be called a general but did not dare to show his face, only Bai Qi.

King Qin had just been removed from Bai Qi's official position, so why did he summon him secretly?

Fan Ju felt a chill in the back of his neck.

Now he understands why King Qin announced the removal of Bai Qi from his position as a general, just to confuse him, and secretly King Qin has recalled Bai Qi, and the two are plotting to get rid of him.

In fact, the king of Qin does not need to do this at all, he is the king of Qin, and the king wants his ministers to die, but the current situation is different, if there is no evidence, Fan Ju will be convicted, and the Qin army will immediately have a floating heart, after all, in the consciousness of the Qin army, Bai Qi is the one who betrayed the Qin army.

Fan Ju understood that it was not difficult to find evidence, and those who went to assassinate Li Yan and Li Dang with Ziyi would most likely betray themselves. He had to think of countermeasures before King Qin could find out the evidence.

He told Ziyi his thoughts, and Ziyi was also shocked into a cold sweat and nodded again and again. Fan Ju finally gritted his teeth and said to Ziyi: "If you want not to be betrayed by your subordinates, there is only one way." ”

Ziyi looked at his face and said with a little horror: "Cut the grass and eradicate the roots? Fan Ju said: "Do you have a better way to make them never tell the truth?" ”

Ziyi was silent for a moment and said slowly: "No." Fan Ju said: "You go and do it, do it cleanly, and don't be suspected." Ziyi said: "Okay, I can invite them to drink, poison the wine, poison them, and bury them on the spot." ”

Fan Ju said: "In addition, we have to kill Bai Qi." ”

Ziyi said: "How to kill, open killing or assassination?" Fan Ju said: "Naturally, he killed openly, because Bai Qi came to Xi'an secretly, he is a traitor to the Qin army, and everyone will be punished." You and I don't need to come forward in this matter, it's best for someone else to kill him. Ziyi thought for a while: "As long as you can find his hiding place, it is not difficult to start." ”

Fan Ju said: "I sent someone to follow him tonight, and I should be able to find him." ”

The child master frowned: "What if...... What if the Great King no longer summons Bai Qi? ”

Fan Ju sighed: "Then we can't help it, let it be fate." ”

It seems that God still takes good care of Fan Ju, that night, the person sent back to report, Li Dang really accompanied a person to see the King of Qin, when he came out, the person sent specially followed them, came to a house, Li Dang seemed very careful, very respectful to the man, and the man never took off the veil.

Fan Ju nodded, he breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly sneered in his heart: Bai Qi, your time of death has arrived.

After a while, Ziyi also came to see him and told him that the few people who went to chase and kill Li Yan and Li Kang had been poisoned by him, and the corpses had been buried, and no one could see them. Fan Ju said that Bai Qi was hiding, Ziyi frowned, and said: "It seems that it is not difficult to kill Bai Qi, but who to send?" Bai Qi has always had a very high prestige in the Qin army, and if the Qin army sent there does not kill him, but is moved by him, then we will be all finished. ”

Fan Ju thought for a while: "You're right, it seems that we still have to go in person." Ziyi said: "Yes, we will never give him a chance to open his mouth to defend himself, as long as we see him, we will give an order, kill him on the spot, and then report to the king, even if the king is unwilling to die, there is no proof of death, but we can't." ”

The two agreed, and when it was late at night, they took more than 30 Qin soldiers and rushed to the house where Bai Qi lived.
