"Why not?" Zhao Chenfeng smiled contemptuously, "Goryeo is just a small country, when it comes to land and population, it is not as good as the current Liaodong, do you think Goryeo will turn against the Great Zhou now because of this?" That would be naïve.

You must know that the land area of Tianzhu, which was conquered a few years ago, is equivalent to half of the land area of the Great Zhou, and the population is equivalent to seventy percent of the Great Zhou.

It's such a huge country, not conquered by the Great Zhou, let alone a mere Goryeo! ”

"But that's different!" Zhao Tan retorted, "Although Tianzhu is very large in terms of population and land area, it can be a colony of Yingyi in the past, and it has been ruled by Yingyi for a long time, and the private capital has long lost the spirit of resistance.

This is not the case with Goryeo, although Goryeo is a vassal state of the Great Zhou, but in the end it is a sovereign state, and its government can still freely exercise its own power. ”

"You still don't believe you!" Zhao Chenfeng sneered, "The old man asked you, compared to Liaodong, is the land area of Goryeo larger or the area of Liaodong larger?" ”

"Naturally, it's Liaodong!"

"What about the population?"

"After immigration, the population of Liaodong has now exceeded 10 million, and the Goryeo Kingdom has less than 3 million people, so it is naturally the population of Liaodong."

"Then regardless of population or land area, Liaodong can overwhelm the entire Goryeo, and Liaodong is not even ranked in the top ten in the strength ranking of all provinces in the entire Great Zhou, whether it is economy, agriculture, education, military and other aspects, do you think Your Majesty will give up the weapon of Jinyiwei for the sake of a Goryeo country that is not even as good as Liaodong?"

"I see!" Zhao Tan was a little depressed, "I'll go and inform the generals Zhang, Li, and Feng now to cancel the previous plan." ”

"No need to cancel, just go ahead with the plan!" Unexpectedly, Zhao Chenfeng suddenly opened his mouth to stop it, and said: "We just need to add some matches on it to light the fire!" ”

Zhao Tan was a little confused, "Master, didn't you say before that the imperial court didn't put the Goryeo Kingdom in your eyes at all, why did you change your mind at this time?" ”

"The old man has never changed his mind from beginning to end!" Zhao Chenfeng said, "It's just that your plan was a little too petty before, even if the Goryeo Kingdom appealed to the imperial court, the imperial court would not take it to heart."

Simply, this time we will make a big deal about this matter, so that the court has to come forward to clean up the mess, so that we can bring down Jinyiwei, and we can sit back and relax completely in the future! ”

"What's the solution?" Zhao Tan hurriedly asked.

Zhao Chenfeng said calmly: "The old man heard that the monarch of Goryeo intended to assign Yizhou to the second prince as a fief, and the second prince came to Yizhou to check the mountains and rivers there before even a year had passed.

If at this time, the second prince of Goryeo suddenly dies in Uiju, and dies in front of the eyes of the Jinyi secret agent, what do you say the monarch of Goryeo will do at that time? ”

Zhao Tan said: "I have also heard that this second prince is the favorite son of the monarch of Goryeo, if the second prince suddenly dies in Yiju, the monarch of Goryeo will definitely not give up."

However, even if the government of Goryeo found out that this matter implicated Jinyiwei, according to what the lord said before, the monarch of Goryeo may not have the courage to appeal to my Great Zhou court, and even if he does, he may not necessarily pay attention to it! ”

"What the old man said before was on the basis of a small fight. Because if it was just a small fight, there was no possibility of bringing down the Jinyi Guard in one fell swoop, and the princes of the court and the central government would not have done it at all.

But if this matter is really big, there will be no need for our brothers to come forward at that time, and there are many ministers in the court who have long seen that Jinyiwei is not pleasing to the eye. Once that time comes, the imperial court can't help but ignore it. And our Liaodong can also escape because of this......"

Zhao Chenfeng's strategy can be described as vicious, over the years, Jinyiwei has done countless things to rob the family and destroy the mouth, and there are not a few ministers in the court who look at Jinyiwei unpleasantly.

Once things get to that point, even if the Son of Heaven wants to cover up for the brocade, I'm afraid he won't be able to hide it. Because judging from the national policy in the past few years, the Son of Heaven has paid more and more attention to the construction of the legal system. The authority of Jinyiwei's sword has also been greatly restricted, and now he only has the right to handle cases, and the right to judge has long been transferred to the Three Law Divisions.

And if during this period, some illegal acts of Jinyiwei are found, I am afraid that Han Xiao, the commander of Jinyiwei, will not be able to wash it even if he jumps into the Yellow River.

The reason is very simple, although all the things done by Jinyi Wei are directly instructed to the Son of Heaven, many of them are not visible.

In other words, once the Three Law Divisions launch an investigation into Jinyiwei, at least half of the Jinyiwei personnel will be implicated, and they will not be able to withstand investigation and interrogation at all.

This is exactly what Zhao Chenfeng is clever about, thinking about this, Zhao Tan and several people left Zhao's mansion, hurriedly went out of the city and looked for Zhang and Li Feng to discuss the matter.

After some detailed discussions, the specific plan was soon formulated......

On the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Han Xiao was about to go to the military camp outside the city, and he didn't want a brocade guard spy to come in a hurry, so he whispered in Han Xiao's ear for a while.

After hearing this, Han Xiao's eyes couldn't help but narrow a little, and he instructed one of his subordinates, Qianhu, "You take the token of Commander Zhao and go to the military camp outside the city to investigate, this official has other important matters, and he has to leave Zizai Prefecture for a few days." ”

After speaking, he threw the token that Zhao Chenfeng gave him that day Chinese New Year's Eve into the hands of this Qianhu, and without waiting for Qianhu to answer, Han Xiao hurriedly got on the horse and took a few Jinyi captains to the outside of the city......

"My lord, this is the direction!" In the evening, Han Xiao had already led people to the bank of the Yalu River outside Jiulian City. After exploring the vicinity, the Jinyi Wei secret agent who reported the news in the morning pointed to a line of footprints and said to Han Xiao, "My lord, follow this line of footprints to cross the Yalu River, and soon we will be able to find the whereabouts of those people!" ”

Looking at the dim sky, Han Xiao said: "It's getting late now, even if you cross the Yalu River, I'm afraid that you won't get anything tonight." Let's rush to Jiulian City to rest for one night, and then cross the river to catch up at dawn tomorrow! ”

After speaking, Han Xiao turned his horse's head and turned around towards Jiulian City......

Although Jiulian City is relatively prosperous, it is only a small city in the end, and the total number of residents in the city is about 3,000. The hotels and inns that supply merchants to rest are also on the same street, and they can be visited in less than half an hour.

Because of the heavy snow blocking the road, many inns coming and going to Goryeo mostly choose to rest in Jiulian City and wait for the snow to clear before leaving.

In addition, because of the Chinese New Year, the inn merchants in Jiulian City were very slow, and they searched for more than an hour, and Han Xiao and the others found an inn with a vacant room in Liancheng City, so they didn't have to sleep on the streets tonight......
