Chapter 537: Prelude to Murder

The army plots, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the city is attacked. Following Li Qian, this immortal saying in Sun Tzu's Art of War was deeply imprinted in Li Xian's mind, which was of course a blessing for a smash hit.

To say that he does have a bit of Han nationalism in his bones, but his personality has always been that people don't offend me, I don't offend people, and because of his lazy nature, he rarely takes the initiative to attack. Moreover, the Tang army in these years almost always fought the weak on the battlefield, and there was not much danger, so he actually watched the lively component more at first.

However, the last time he went to the northwest, he was angry and angry, but this time he came to Liaodong and he took the initiative to ask for help, but by mistake, not only did he catch his fugitive wife, but the assassin he caught was actually an ex-convict, and this was the second time he had been assassinated! Although he knows that rash action will leave a handle on people, which may not be conducive to his reputation as an "idle king", if others provoke him repeatedly and do not fight back, then he will really become a wreck!

Although it has been some years since the founding of Goguryeo, the criminal law mainly depends on the king's pleasure, but since Quangae Suwen is the only one, and the Quan family even seems to have the momentum of the first Goguryeo, the dungeon of this royal palace has gradually become somewhat deserted. These days, this dark dungeon has been resuming its former role, not only filling it with a large number of people, but even screaming incessantly, which even makes some of the old servants in the palace feel a sense of nostalgia.

However, the executed person did not feel so well. Jin Tongshan never expected that Li Xian would expose his identity. He was forced to write everything down, but not only did he not come to see him again, but his punishment was only changed from three times a day to once, and he did not know anything about the outside world, as if the man in charge of the execution could not speak at all. Not only that, but even the only flare of light was removed, and all he could see was a small amount of light peeking through the crack in the door.

He is more than 20 years older than Gao Desheng, and he wants to start his career with the credit of saving the king. In the end, Gao Desheng succeeded in planting dependence and affection for him. It took years. During this period, he secretly started a family in Goguryeo and had two sons and a daughter, so when he heard that Li Xian was going to kill all the Goguryeo people, he showed such a panic.

Crunch –

After staying in the dark for so long, his ears grew considerably, and when he heard the voice, he immediately tried his best to raise his head and look out. found that there was more than one person coming, and the leader even carried a torch, and the one in the back seemed to be Li Xian. Suddenly he had infinite hope, and he clung to the chains on his arms, and he cried out almost without thinking.

"King Yong, His Royal Highness King Yong! I've told you everything I know, please let me out! My name is indeed Kim Tong-sun, and I am from Silla. Directly under the orders of the king of Silla. I've met the king of Silla, and I've met General Kim Shin, yes. And Princess Seonjo! As long as you let me out, I'll ...... I'll do whatever you say! ”

Hearing this almost incoherent plea for mercy, Li Xiandi showed a smug smile on his face, turned his head and whispered to a person next to him who was shrouded in a black cloak: "Did you hear everything? ”

Although there was no cold wind in the room, the man's body was shivering. It took a while for Li Xianfang to see the man raise his head, and the only eyes that were exposed radiated endless anger and disappointment. Just as he wanted to add fuel to the fire and say something, he saw the person next to him rush forward and slap Jin Tongshan who was hanging from the chain in the center.

"How dare you lie to me!"

As soon as these words came out, the man in black suddenly lifted his cloak, who else could it be if it wasn't Gao Desheng? She reached out to grab Kim Tongshan like crazy, but in order to facilitate the punishment, Li Xian didn't dress him at all, so she could only pinch his neck fiercely, and scolded a series of Goguryeo words in her mouth, speaking at a hurry, high and fast.

After scolding easily, she slapped a few more big slaps, until Jin Tongshan's face was swollen and her hands were also shaken and painful, she barely stopped, staggered back a few steps, first hid her face and sobbed, and then she cried bitterly. The dark and damp cell echoed with the woman's cry, which was even more poignant and eerie.

Seeing that blood was spilling from the corner of Jin Tongshan's mouth and his left eye was swollen too high, Li Xian stepped forward with a sneer and ordered someone to take Gao Desheng out. Now he is convinced that Gao Desheng's last concern for this guy is gone.

"It doesn't matter what you confessed, I ask you now, if Kim Shin dies, what will happen to Silla in the country?"

Gao Desheng's sudden madness just now made Jin Tongshan suffer, and it was mainly a mental impact, after all, compared to the torture he had suffered in the past few days, those slaps were just a piece of cake. Hearing Li Xian's straightforward question, he once again gave birth to a glimmer of hope for survival, and hurriedly replied: "If Jin Xin is killed by the Tang Dynasty, the whole Silla will definitely have the same hatred; But if it is harmed by others, then there will be chaos in the kingdom of Silla. ”

This answer was exactly what Li Xian had envisioned, he nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Kim Tongshan who was full of anticipation, and he suddenly drew his saber,

into the other person's chest. Until this time, he smiled into those incredible eyes and said, "Keeping you is just to vent the hatred in my heart, you are useless for a long time." If you were truly a loyal man, I would have spared your life, but now you must die! ”

Seeing Jin Tongshan swallowing his last breath with his eyes stunned, Li Xian casually threw the blood-stained saber to the ground, stretched out his hand to make a move back, and ordered without looking back: "According to the plan, give him a ride!" ”

Huo Huaien is the best at doing this kind of thing, so he agreed immediately, and took two personal soldiers to relieve Jin Tongshan. And Li Xian watched them take people out, and stopped for a moment before going back. Early tomorrow morning, he will accompany Jin Zhengming to visit Jin Shin there, and this unexpected meeting must be very exciting.

On a normal spring night, three hundred miles away from the city of Pyongyang, a dirt fortress with the Silla army stationed was not very peaceful. Although there were only more than 4,000 people stationed here, since this was the temporary headquarters of the Silla army, and Kim Shin, who was known as the god of the army, was also stationed here, the defense was naturally extremely strict.

However, that night, a patrolling sentinel first discovered an intrusion, followed by a corpse when they searched around, and then several Silla samurai heard the sound of fighting, and when they heard the sound, they saw a group of men in black quickly leave, leaving behind three seriously wounded people, in short, except for ordinary soldiers, the sleeping generals were alarmed.

It is normal for people to die, and it is normal if it is people in the army who die, but the problem is that the Silla commander Kim Qinchun almost ordered the entire battalion, and it took a whole hour to find that he had no one missing, and this corpse of three big living people seemed to come out of nowhere. That's it, but Kim In-wen, who followed Kim Shin and easily got out of Pyongyang City, showed an extremely shocked expression after inspecting the body, and his mouth was wide enough to fit an egg.

"How could he die here? Could it be that his identity has been revealed? ”

When Kim Qinchun heard Kim In-chan muttering there, he immediately felt that something was wrong. In fact, the day before yesterday, he was scolded by his brother who rushed back in anger, and his heart was already enough, and he couldn't help but blow again. Having driven out all the guards who were in the way, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Why, do you know him?" ”

"I once saw this person in Mingjia, and it seems that he is an intermediary sent by the Great King in Goguryeo, and his status is not low." Jin Renwen hesitated for a moment, considering the current situation, and finally decided to tell the truth, "About four or five years ago, Mingjia once instructed this person to assassinate Li Xian, the king of Yong, as a Goguryeo scholar, and deliberately missed to cause a riot in Chang'an. Later, I heard that he returned to Goguryeo safely and stayed by Gao Desheng's side, and it was really ...... that he suddenly died here at this time."

The omitted words at the end are not to be said, and Jin Qinchun is also clear, either strange or suspicious. Since the Tang army went to Pyongyang first, he had a vague bad premonition, and after that, there was a fool who said that Su Dingfang was killed, and he panicked even more - because the mastermind of the whole thing was none other than him as Jin Xin's younger brother!

God can't stop for a moment! He is already a handful of years, even if he can't go any further, he should enjoy the glory and wealth after the great disaster of Goguryeo has been eliminated, right?

Angry, he wanted to smash something, but this was the place where the military was decided, and he couldn't find anything to smash. And there was a Jin Ren next to him, in addition to a corpse on the ground, there were three half-dead people with less air in and more air out. So, he was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to report this matter to the general?" ”

Please, you're someone's own brother, and I'm a nephew at best! Jin Renwen scolded Jin Qinchun half to death in his heart, but since Jin Xin is here, if such a strange thing is concealed, it may be a few more times at that time. So, he nodded, went out and called a group of guards, and regardless of the situation of the seriously wounded, he carried the people directly to Jin Xin's residence.

As Jin Renwen expected, Jin Xin had already been awakened and was waiting for someone to report at this moment. As soon as he heard that there was such a strange thing, he immediately checked the corpse, and after searching for the existence of such a person from his memory, his face became quite ugly. However, just as he was frowning and pondering, he did not expect that the three dying wounded suddenly burst out and attacked him with their bare hands.

The offensive of these three people was like a mad tiger without any order, but Jin Xin was not caught off guard, only to see the sword light flash, two of them fell out with blood flying sideways, and fell to the ground without knowing whether they were alive or dead, but the other quickly dodged the knife light, wiped his right hand on his head, and threw it forward violently, and then he didn't look at the result, and fell to the ground with a gritted tooth.

Kim In-wen and Kim Qin-chun breathed a sigh of relief when they saw three dead people in one place, but the next moment, their hearts rose to their throats again—only to see Jin Shinzheng stretching out his hand to cover his waist and eyes, and red blood was faintly oozing from his hands.
