Chapter 299: The Wind Rises
Cheng Xinghe held the flying knife in his hand again and said to the floating leaves: "My knife is sacrificed, like chasing the wind and bamboo leaves, the spring water is cut off, and it can kill people invisibly." ”
Fushengye said: "I'm a sick man now, it's easy to kill me, why don't you try?" ”
Cheng Xinghe said: "Whenever I want to kill you, I feel uneasy, it seems that your life should not be extinguished, we will have a period later." ”
Fushengye said: "We are also old friends, since you want to kill me, it stands to reason that I should fulfill you, but you suddenly don't want to kill again, in vain I have a good intention, and I also wasted a good knife of yours." Since your knife can't kill anyone, stay and play with me for two days! ”
Cheng Xinghe looked at the Deathwing dagger in his hand and said, "Does it have to be like this?" ”
Fushengye said: "Otherwise? Am I the kind of person who can bully anyone? You've already had murderous intentions against me, and not skinning you and cramping is already my greatest tolerance! ”
Cheng Xinghe hesitated, silently used his internal strength, and the Wings of Death levitated.
The floating leaf raised his head, revealing the veins and veins in his neck, and continued to provoke Cheng Xinghe.
The little white fox Ahri suddenly jumped on the shoulders of the floating leaves, and looked at Cheng Xinghe with bared teeth.
Cheng Xinghe was stared at by Ahri, and his heart was furious. He finally figured out that it was not the floating leaves that he was afraid of, but Ahri.
He put away his flying knife and bowed respectfully to the floating leaves: "There are many offences today, we will have a date later!" ”
Fushengye took a step forward and said, "Just let you go, where is my face when it is passed out?" ”
Cheng Xinghe suppressed his anger and said, "What else do you want?" ”
Fushengye said: "Leave that deathwing in your hand!" ”
Cheng Xinghe's flying knife is a complete set of equipment, and if it is missing, it will not be a system, and it will form a defect when forming a flying knife killing array.
Just like a human finger, although it is rare to use all ten fingers on weekdays, it will be inconvenient to miss one hand.
Cheng Xinghe looked at Ahri and the floating leaf and thought about it again and again, and finally used his mental power to control the flying knife and slowly flew towards the floating leaf.
Watching the flying knife float in front of him, the floating leaves didn't move. If Cheng Xinghe suddenly controlled the flying knife to cut his throat at this time, it would be difficult for him to prevent it.
The knife eventually flew towards Ahri, who reached out and caught it.
Cheng Xinghe retracted his mental power, turned around and disappeared into the jungle. Inside the Acropolis, the Duke of the Patriotic Empire, Mu Lin, had already dressed up in the costumes of the sacrificial day.
His golden armor was placed in the living room, and it was customary for him not to wear it to the ceremony. The servant took the general's sword from the display in front of the table and put it on Mullin's waist.
Outside the apartment, ten generals were already waiting by the cloister pavilion in full armor.
Wei Guogong ordered the generals to give the soldiers of the Shence Army more food, and opened the wine cellar to bring out the treasured wine to reward everyone.
After the wine and food are full, all the sergeants must be fully armored, and after the sun sets, the Shence army can drive into the imperial capital when they see the arrows.
This top-secret plan is currently known only to the ten generals, and after the Duke of Wei Guo leaves the acropolis, the ten generals will return to their respective battalions, and then gather their subordinates to convey orders step by step as time progresses. Make sure that before dark, all Divine Force soldiers receive a unified order.
In the early morning of the tenth day of October, Emperor Xuan divined in the temple, and the number of double tens was interpreted by the warlock as the meaning of perfection, and Emperor Xuan was overjoyed when he heard it.
When he left the temple, he met with King Wu in the dormitory.
The country of Wu is strong, and the king of Wu has always been arrogant and has the intention of swallowing the world.
In the past, Wu's biggest opponent, Qi State, was devastated because of the defeat last time, and now the only forces in the world that can contain Wu are the Shence Army in the imperial capital and the Daiguo Border Army in the north.
Because the border army of Daiguo fought against Donghu all the year round, they had no time to take care of the disputes within the Central Plains Empire. King Wu overwhelmed the vassal states with the strength of one country, and the overlord was unrivaled for a while.
King Wu had bad intentions when he came to the imperial capital at this time, and he wanted to show his strength and further strengthen his prestige among the vassal states.
The cowardly Emperor Xuan did not blame King Wu for all kinds of trespassers in the imperial capital, but was very fond of him.
Emperor Xuan's performance made King Wu very proud, and his desire to dominate the world became stronger and stronger.
In the palace, Emperor Xuan and King Wu are plotting a major event to change the pattern of the world.
Emperor Xuan said: "The world is so great that only you know the suffering in the heart of the lonely king!" ”
King Wu said: "Your Majesty is the benevolent monarch of the world, but he was named the title of faint monarch by the ignorant people, I am really unhappy for Your Majesty!" ”
Emperor Xuan said: "The three princes were originally the ancestral slaves, they relied on the shadow of their ancestors, did not want to serve the emperor, and even thought of replacing them, and the heart of rebellion was clearly revealed. ”
King Wu said: "The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die." The three dukes are treacherous, the people and gods are angry, as long as Your Majesty issues an edict, I am willing to lead the army to the king and destroy the three dukes. ”
Emperor Xuan raised his glass and said: "The emperor is here to move, and I am willing to share the world with you after the matter is completed." ”
King Wu said: "How dare you, how dare you, it is the courtier's duty to relieve His Majesty's worries." Moved to Sangong, the imperial family regained military power, and the prosperity of the Great Xia Kingdom was just around the corner. ”
Although the two reached an agreement after many days of talking, they each had evil intentions.
If Emperor Xuan wanted to eliminate the power of the Three Princes, he had to rely on external forces. But cooperating with King Wu is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger.
Emperor Xuan has Jiang Entropy to give advice, and he also knows this matter.
In order to prevent King Wu from further coveting the imperial capital after the elimination of the Three Dukes, Jiang Entropy has contacted Tian Kaijiang, the general of Qi State, Chen Bing, on the border of Qi State to contain King Wu.
Because Emperor Xuan was busy preparing for the sacrifice of the Winter Clothes Festival, he left the palace and went to the Taimiao after sending off King Wu.
King Wu returned to his temporary residence in the imperial capital, Suliantai.
His residence is not far from the harem, and outsiders don't know that there is a secret passage in the harem that leads to Suliantai.
Queen Jiang was already waiting for King Wu's arrival in the tent of Suliantai.
Wu Wangping retreated left and right and came to the bedroom alone. He took off his coat and went to the bed, pressing it towards Queen Jiang's hungry tiger.
After some clouds and rain, King Wu fell tired and fell on Queen Jiang's white chest.
Queen Jiang said softly: "King Wu's majestic style is comparable to two Xuan Emperors. ”
King Wu laughed: "I am the king of kings, the man of men." ”
Queen Jiang said: "So all women in the world want to get you, even me." And all the men in the world are jealous of you, even Emperor Xuan. ”
King Wu said: "What am I afraid of! ”
Queen Jiang said: "Emperor Xuan wants to use you to settle the three dukes, and on the other hand, he has gathered the army of Qi to prepare for a surprise attack on Wu, he wants to kill two birds with one stone, and even you have to get rid of it!" ”
King Wu said: "How can he hide his little caution from this king, if it weren't for the feeling that you became a widow, I would have killed him a long time ago." ”
Queen Jiang said: "It's easy to get old, and men are still unreliable after all." I served him so dedicatedly, but he still thought about accepting a thousand Yue women into the palace. I would like to ask you to help my son become the lord of the imperial capital. In the future, the imperial capital and I will not all be yours. ”
King Wu said: "Emperor Xuan is still alive, and there is also the crown prince Junhao." ”
Queen Jiang said: "The crown prince Junhao has already received the talisman and is ready to go to the Qi country to move troops to fight against you." Emperor Xuan is old and frail, and he will have a stroke if he drinks the tonic soup tonight. They all went, and naturally it was my son's turn to take the throne. ”
King Wu said: "There is also the second prince!" ”
Queen Jiang said: "If he doesn't think he has a long life, he won't talk much." ”
Wu Wang said: "What are you going to do?" ”
Queen Jiang said: "After the sacrifice of the Winter Clothes Festival begins, Jun Hao will take the talisman out of the city along the waterway to the Qi country. We can intercept him on Shiliping Lake, so that he will never reach the Qi country. ”
Wu Wang said: "Jun Hao is the identity of the prince, killing him, it is similar to killing the king, although my people are loyal, but I am afraid that I will hesitate when I see the prince." ”
Queen Jiang said: "I will follow the past, and when I see Jun Hao's ship from a distance, I will say that it is someone else's fake and intends to assassinate the queen, you just need to find some neat subordinates and shoot them with arrows." When the time comes, who will dare to say that the killing is wrong? If you set a fire and destroy the ship, you will be gone, and the gods will be over without knowing it. ”
King Wu said: "So it's up to you!" ”
There is no impermeable wall in the world, which is in line with the old saying, if you want people not to know, you can't do anything unless you do.
Queen Jiang and King Wu thought they were doing it seamlessly, but they didn't know that her every move had already been seen by her own son Donghao.
Dong Ho likes to play hide and seek in all corners of the palace on weekdays. He accidentally caught a glimpse of his mother sneaking from the secret passage to Suliantai.
Driven by curiosity, he quietly followed his mother to Suliantai and hid in bed to experience the majesty of King Wu.
It's not easy for him to break this kind of thing. After all, Queen Jiang is her biological mother, once the matter is defeated, how can Emperor Xuan give up.
And although Queen Jiang is out of line, she still thinks about Donghao everywhere in what she does.
Although Donghao is young, he can also appreciate his mother's good intentions.
Donghao has had a good relationship with Junhao since he was a child, and he is not close to Emperor Xuan under his influence.
Hearing that Queen Jiang was going to attack Jun Hao, Dong Hao couldn't bear it, so he decided to tell Jun Hao the news and let him hide first.
Dong Ho returned to his palace and was about to leave the palace when Queen Jiang came to the door.
Donghao had a ghost in his heart, and when he saw his mother coming, he thought that his actions were frightened by his mother's knowledge.
Queen Kang had no idea about Dong-ho's plans. She came to Donghao to ask him to take King Wu's talisman to the border of Wu and lead the Wu army into the imperial capital. Queen Jiang held Emperor Xuan's edict of King Qin in her hand, and the Wu army crossed the border and other vassal states would not intervene.
Queen Jiang thought that when Donghao arrived with the Wu army, at that time, in the imperial capital, the three dukes had been leveled, and Emperor Xuan and Junhao were no longer obstacles, so this emperor would naturally belong to Donghao.
Dong Hao listened to his mother's words, picked up his father's secret edict, and King Wu's talisman and went out of the palace.
Queen Jiang didn't know that as soon as Donghao left the palace gate, she went straight to the mansion of the crown prince Junhao. And she arranged for the two guards who followed and monitored Dong Hao, and followed Dong Hao to the vicinity of the East Palace and was captured by the imperial eunuch Feng Shenghe. Feng Shenghe took the two guards to an abandoned garden, and after some questioning, they were buried alive on the spot.
