Chapter Seventy-Four: Before the Stage
The next day, when the sun rose again, the entire city of Daliang was still immersed in panic.
"Did you hear that? Yesterday, an assassin from the Qin State broke into Daliang City and assassinated several ministers, and even the Dasikong Mansion suffered heavy casualties! ”
"Yes, yes, I also heard that it was Da Sikong who originally led the troops to exterminate those assassins, but he was ambushed at the West City Gate, and Da Sikong was killed by the assassins. If it weren't for the arrival of the second prince and Wei Wushu's thousand-commander Dianqing, maybe those people would have escaped! ”
"Ahh Has even Da Sikong been killed? What a good thing that is! ”
"Yes, yes, first the general, and now the great Sikong, then how will my Wei State resist the attack of the tyrannical Qin in the future!"
“……”
“……”
As rumors spread one after another, the entire Daliang City panicked.
And this panic infected not only the small people, but even the Manchu civil and military in the palace of the Wei Dynasty all looked panicked at this time.
"Can anyone tell Lone what the hell is going on? Why were four of my Wei ministers killed overnight, and even Da Sikong was killed, what are you doing to eat! ”
There was only the angry questioning of the King of Wei in the main hall, and the few remaining civil officials below were all trying to make themselves transparent, so as not to attract the attention of the King of Wei and become the object of venting.
At this time, in the court of the Wei State, the general and the chief Sikong were dead, and the chief officials of both the military and the government were gone, and now the highest official position became the secretary in charge of justice and law enforcement.
Moreover, the assassination of the ministers this time was originally under his jurisdiction, so others could pretend to be dead, but he, the secretary, couldn't, so he could only bite the bullet and prepare to stand up.
But before he could speak, he suddenly heard a notice outside, saying that the second son Feng and the commander of the thousand were asking to see him.
At this time, King Wei, who was full of anger in his heart, didn't want to see his waste son at all, so he directly asked people to drive them out.
"Childe said that he had already found out what happened last night, and he came to report to the king at this time."
Listening to the words of the chamberlain, King Wei was suddenly surprised.
He didn't expect that even the officials of the court had no clue about it, and his son who wanted to be mediocre had already found out the reason?
"Let them in!"
King Wei gave an order, and Li Chenfeng entered the main hall with the tall Dianqing behind him.
"Wei Feng, you said you had already found out what happened last night?" King Wei didn't wait for the two of them to salute, and asked eagerly at Li Chenfeng.
"Yes, King!"
"Come on!"
Under everyone's gaze, Li Chenfeng said in a deep voice: "Last night, His Majesty was paying tribute to the general at the Armor Gate, and suddenly heard a report from the Great Sikong, saying that he had discovered the whereabouts of the Qin State killer in Daliang City, and asked the commander to go and capture the assassin.
In order to be just in case, the subordinates accompanied the general's disciple Mei Sanniang, led the disciples of the armor gate to go together, how do you know that the assassins are fierce, and there are a large number of them, although they are surrounded by my army, but the other party in order to survive, assassinate everywhere in the city of Liang to create chaos, the ministers and others try their best to kill the assassins, but there are still several ministers and the big Sikong Mansion were attacked, and finally the ministers and the commander of the Dian Qianfu led the many warriors of the armor gate to drive the other party to the Ximen urn city, which annihilated them in one fell swoop, there are twenty-four assassins, the corpses are outside the palace, please dispose of the king! ”
Li Chenfeng's words once again caused an uproar among the monarchs and ministers of the Wei State, and then his heart was relieved.
After all, no one wants to be stared at by a group of killers all the time, even if it is King Wei, he is afraid that when he is sleeping, he will be cut off by someone.
Now that he heard that Li Chenfeng had led people to wipe out all the assassins, he was immediately relieved.
As for the corpses of those so-called assassins, they were naturally prepared by Li Chenfeng a long time ago......
When Wei Yong acted, Li Chenfeng went to the West City Gate to deal with his affairs, while Mei Sanniang was ordered by Li Chenfeng to directly raid the homes of Wei Yong's four dog-legged people, and then raided the Dasikong Mansion, annihilating the force in Wei Yong's hands in one fell swoop, which can be regarded as strangling all the troubles in the cradle.
The rest of the ladies of the Great Sikong Mansion did not pose any threat at all, and even Wei Xianxian, who knew the truth, would not be able to tell the matter for the sake of her husband and son, so everything that happened last night would become a top secret and buried deep underground.
At this time, Li Chenfeng had the sword of Xuanjian in his hand, and he subdued the armor gate, and now he only needs to launch a few more civil officials in the court, so even if he really has a firm foothold in the Wei State, all his plans can be implemented in the future.
"Good! Hahaha! Well done! King Wei laughed after listening to Li Chenfeng's words.
"You have done a good job in this matter, Wei Feng, you are decisive, and you have done a great job, you said, how do you want this king to reward you!"
There were not a few central officials in the Warring States Period, and there were only a dozen ministers in Wei who were originally qualified to meet the King of Wei, but now they were killed by Wei Yong, and four were killed by Li Chenfeng under the pretext, and the entire hall was only eight people at this time, including Li Chenfeng himself.
After listening to King Wei's promise, four of them changed their faces and wanted to say something.
But seeing that King Wei is happy now, and Li Chenfeng, the second son, has made great contributions, if they stand up against it, I am afraid it will not have any effect, so they put up with it for the time being.
These are all in Li Chenfeng's eyes, although he has no memory of those four people, but judging from their performance, it should be his eldest brother, that is, Prince Wei's fake person, who is considered a "princeling".
After making a judgment in his heart, Li Chenfeng did not ask for a reward for himself, but said: "King, although the assassins of the Qin State were completely annihilated, but the huge losses of our Wei State, especially the death of the general, made the border pass unstable, for the sake of today's plan, the most important thing is to send people to the border pass first and lead the army to resist the invasion of the Qin army." ”
The prestige who was still smiling instantly turned ugly when he heard this.
He naturally knows about the border pass, but after the death of the general, there is no one in Wei who can resist the Qin army, and now it is purely relying on the number of border troops and the strength of Wei Wushu to deal with the Qin army, but if there is no main general who can take on the big task for a long time, it is only a matter of time before the Qin army breaks through the city.
"What do you propose?" King Wei said coldly.
Li Chenfeng didn't care about the change of King Wei, and said directly: "Commander Dianqing is a disciple of the great general, and he is the first warrior of Wei Wushu, and his strength is strong, if he leads 100,000 Wei Wushu, supplemented by heavy troops, he can protect the border pass!" ”
In this troubled era, military power is always the most important, so Li Chenfeng's first thing is to make a move against the military power of Wei.
Although it is somewhat unlikely that Dianqing will inherit the position of general and take charge of the whole army, as long as he controls 100,000 Wei soldiers, it is almost equivalent to mastering half of the military strength of Wei.
Li Chenfeng naturally won't let this go.
