Twenty-six-three, the country is in turmoil
Ji Qihan smiled and said to her: "What I said is all true, so why do I need to prove anything to you?" ”
"Of course, you have to prove to me that this has something to do with me. You know, you said that the person you liked was born exactly like me. She said nonsense.
Ji Qihan thought about it, then took out a painting he was carrying with him and handed it to Yao Wanyun to see, I don't know why, in front of Yao Wanyun, he always has no temper.
Yao Wanyun looked at the woman on the portrait, just glanced at it, she was stunned, that woman really looked similar to her, although it was still a little indistinct when she looked closely, but if she didn't look closely, I was afraid that she would be mistaken for the same person.
The scroll of that painting has turned a little yellow, and the corners and corners have been worn out of shape, obviously it has been taken by Ji Xinhan for a long time, and Ji Qihan has also taken it out countless times, and she can't help but feel a little more compassion for Ji Qihan in her heart.
She comforted Ji Qihan and said: "Don't be too sad because of this, if she has a spirit in the sky, she will definitely know your affection for her." ”
"In heaven there is a spirit?" Ji Qihan was slightly stunned.
"Of course it is, you have such a deep affection for this woman, and you are such an excellent man, how can she not like you? Since she didn't marry you, it must be because she's dead. Do you think I'm right? ”
Ji Kaihan didn't know how to answer her question, so he didn't say anything.
"By the way, let's talk again, what did my aunt tell you to do? Is it related to the Danshu Iron Scroll? Tell me quickly. ”
Ji Qihan shook his head and said, "This matter is very important, if you know it, it won't do you any good." Anyway, don't worry, I'll help your aunt. ”
"Will you really help my aunt?" Yao Wanyun asked a little uneasy.
"Of course it will, your aunt and the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty were originally like sisters, if I want to help the eldest princess, I will naturally help your aunt."
"The eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, she, I have also heard of it, this person is also well-known on our side, everyone says she is a heroine, and some people say that she is a proud princess, what is going on? Can you tell me about her story slowly? Also, do you like her? Otherwise, why would she come to us for her? ”
"Of course not." Ji Qihan categorically vetoed: "I am very good friends with her, and I will tell you about her deeds slowly in the future, okay?" ”
"Good. So let's say so, do you want to spend some more time here? I'm waiting to hear your story. ”
Hearing her ask, Ji Qihan nodded and said, "Yes, I am indeed going to stay in North Korea for a while, and I can tell you the story slowly when the time comes." ”
Yao Wanyun chatted with him for a while, and then walked away a little reluctantly, obviously Yao Wanyun was very interested in Ji Aihan, and as long as Ji Wanhan saw her face that resembled Jing Hengdi, he had no immunity to her.
He watched Yao Wanyun's departing back, and said to himself in his heart: "No matter what, you have to live well, and you can't let yourself have anything to do no matter what." Even if it's for the transverse flute, you have to live well. ”
Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help but feel gloomy again.
After Ji Kaihan and Yao Jiyin discussed to help her deal with Li Yuanxiao, in the next few days, they were planning every day, although Ji Kaihan was arrogant and uninhibited, he was a brave and resourceful person, and he used to be the leader of the Praetorian Guard in the palace, and he knew everything about the palace clearly.
Even though the Korean Imperial Palace is different from the Daming Imperial Palace, it should not be much different, after he carefully studied the defense in the palace, he slowly had an idea in his heart, the first thing he had to do was to figure out the character of Li Yuanxiao, because only by figuring out Li Yuanxiao's character can he decide what to do next.
Everyone with different personalities has different ways of dealing with some things, and after thinking of this, he continued to go to Yao Wanyun and asked her a lot about Li Yuanxiao.
Yao Wanyun told him that Li Yuanxiao was an unscrupulous person, he was not a wise monarch at all, even if it was a small force that could win the palace this time, the support of the courtiers, and the palace, it was just a fluke.
Hearing Yao Wanyun's analysis, Ji Kaihan always felt as if something was wrong, because he didn't believe that Li Yuanxiao was a brave and unscrupulous person who could still snatch the power of North Korea in his hands.
Yao Zhenyin is such a clever and intelligent woman, if it weren't for the man's means to surpass her, how could she be slaughtered and reduced to fleeing from the palace?
may be because of Yao Wanyun's preconceived ideas, she has a bad opinion of Li Yuanxiao, so she thinks so.
Thinking of this, he became more and more unclear, he felt that he still needed to ask others, and Yao Jiyin had not appeared again in the past few days, and it was not so easy to meet her, so he decided to ask Yao Yongsheng about the situation.
Yao Yongsheng was quite surprised when he saw Ji Xianhan, and asked with a smile: "I don't know what happened when Mr. Ji came to me today?" ”
Ji Kaihan smiled slightly, then sat down opposite him, and arched his hand and said, "That's the case, I troubled Yao Xiangye today because I wanted to ask you about something important." ”
Yao Yongsheng nodded and said: "If Mr. Ji has anything, just ask the old man, and the old man must know everything and say everything." Now my sister still has to rely on Mr. Ji's help, Mr. Ji can draw a knife to help the poor, it can be seen that he is a great hero. ”
After hearing Yao Yongsheng's words, Ji Qihan was stunned. In his impression, Yao Yongsheng has always been a taciturn person, and he didn't expect to talk so eloquently and skillfully.
When he was hesitating, Yao Yongsheng seemed to have spied on the thoughts in his heart, so he said to him with a smile: "When I saw Mr. Ji yesterday, the reason why I didn't talk to Mr. Ji was because the Queen Mother had something important to do with Mr. Ji, and I didn't want to interject." Now that Mr. Ji has found me, there must be something important, so I took the liberty to ask Mr. Ji what was the matter. ”
Ji Kaihan nodded, then said to him with a smile: "That's the case, I really want to know the situation in the palace, I once asked the second miss, but what the second miss said always feels a little different to me." The little girl's thoughts are sometimes very strange, so I came to ask Mr. Yao about it. ”
"Ask me?" Yao Yongsheng was a little strange, he said: "Why didn't Mr. Ji ask the Queen Mother directly? ”
Ji Qihan smiled bitterly: "I also want to find the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother doesn't know where she has gone in the past two days, and she can't find it at all." ”
Yao Yongsheng was thoughtful, then he nodded and smiled: "That's the case, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, I don't know why Mr. Ji asked about the situation in the palace?" But does Mr. Ji have any dealings with the people in the palace? ”
When Yao Yongsheng said these words, he seemed to be suspicious of him.
Ji Kaihan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's just a moment of curiosity, since I've been to North Korea once, I haven't been to the palace, and when I go back, won't I be laughed at for being ignorant?" Yes, I just wanted to inquire with Yao Xiangye, and if a friend from the Central Plains asked when I went back, I would give them an answer. ”
The smile on Yao Yongsheng's face deepened, Ji Qihan didn't know whether he believed it or not, whether he believed it or not, whether he believed it or not, none of these matters mattered, the important thing was that he had to explain the situation in the palace and Ji Qihan clearly, so that Ji Qihan could enter the palace to do things.
Yao Yongsheng pondered for a while, then took out a map from the cabinet, handed it to Ji Qihan, and said to him: "This map was newly copied by me recently, you can enter the palace according to this map at that time." ”
Ji Kaihan took a look and found that the map was exactly the same as the map that Yao Zhenyin gave him, which shows that Yao Yongsheng is wholeheartedly helping his sister restore the country, which may also be understandable.
Yao Zhenyin is the queen mother, and Yao Yongsheng is the elder brother of the queen mother, so he naturally has the support of many people in the court, and he wants to quickly help Ji Lianhan snatch the country from Li Yuanxiao, which is also reasonable.
Ji Qihan smiled: "I still want to ask, I want to ask, what kind of person is Li Yuanxiao?" Do you have a lot of guards with him on weekdays? I heard that there are four heavenly kings and four guards around him, is there such a thing? ”
"Li Yuanxiao is suspicious by nature, he does have the Four Heavenly Kings by his side, and the Four Heavenly Kings almost never leave him, except when he sleeps at night, the Four Heavenly Kings will wait outside. It's just that, according to the old man's opinion, there is no way to compare the kung fu of the Four Heavenly Kings with Mr. Ji. With that, he smiled again.
Ji Kaihan didn't care, of course Ji Kaihan was confident in his martial arts, the kung fu of the Koreans could not be compared with the Central Plains, if they couldn't beat them, their kung fu was far inferior to the martial arts people in the Central Plains, it was also reasonable. If he told Ji Kaihan that the North Koreans' kung fu surpassed Ji Kaihan, then Ji Kaihan would have doubts.
Ji Kaihan asked some more about Li Yuanxiao, and learned from Yao Yongsheng's mouth that this Li Yuanxiao is an absurd and unscrupulous person, and the reason why he was able to seize power and succeed is of course not unrelated to his ambitions, but this person has always been unpopular, he advocates the rule of law by force, and in the minds of the people, many people have opinions about him.
After inquiring about these clearly, Ji Qihan thanked Yao Yongsheng and then left.
After Ji Kaihan walked back, he carefully thought about what Yao Yongsheng told him about Li Yuanxiao, since Li Yuanxiao is so suspicious by nature, then he will definitely increase his defense in his palace, especially at this time, when he is fighting for the world, everything will definitely go to the safest place to do.
If he wants to enter the palace to assassinate Li Yuanxiao, then he must hit it with one blow, otherwise, he will alarm the guards in the palace, and with his martial arts, he may not be able to retreat with his whole body and kill Li Yuanxiao, and if he wants to retreat with his whole body, he must sneak into his room from the roof while Li Yuanxiao is sleeping at night.
Ji Kaihan is confident, with his light skills and martial arts, if he wants to kill a person without knowing it, it is really an easy thing, as long as he does not alarm the four heavenly kings and the guards outside, then everything will be much easier.
That is, if he is alarmed, he must quickly solve the problem of the Four Heavenly Kings leaving the palace, and when the time comes, when the guards find out, Ji Qihan has escaped from the palace, not to mention that he now has a map in hand, if he wants to enter the palace, it is simply a matter of ease.
After thinking about these clearly, he gradually had his own thoughts and ideas in his heart, Ji Qihan was already strong in martial arts, coupled with considerable wisdom, he felt that this assassination in the palace, as long as it was arranged, I am afraid it would not be a difficult thing.
As long as Li Yuanxiao is assassinated, the courtiers who are attached to Li Yuanxiao will definitely re-attach themselves to Yao Zhenyin if they have no choice, and Yao Zhenyin will be able to assist the little emperor to inherit the throne at that time.
Yao Zhenyin said that she didn't have the Danshu Iron Scroll in her hand, Ji Qihan didn't believe it, if she really didn't have the Danshu Iron Scroll in her hand, how could she be so calm?
In fact, Ji Qihan has also heard of Zhuge Liang's empty city plan, there are only two possibilities that can make Yao Jiyin so restless, the first is that she actually has the Danshu iron scroll in her hand, but it also takes a certain amount of time to mobilize troops, maybe she is delaying Li Yuanxiao on the one hand, and on the other hand, she has already sent people to the border to mobilize troops.
The second possibility is that she really doesn't have the Danshu Iron Scroll in her hand, if this woman really doesn't have the Danshu Iron Scroll in her hand, and she can sit so peacefully, then she is really a very strategic and very calm woman, no wonder she can assist the Joseon Dynasty for so many years.
In fact, it doesn't matter if the Danshu Iron Scroll is in her hands or not, the important thing is that Ji Qihan will help her complete her mission no matter what, get rid of Li Yuanxiao, so no matter what, what the result is, she will definitely be able to deal with Li Yuanxiao.
Although Ji Kaihan also has a very uncomfortable feeling in his heart that he is being used, but on the contrary, he is also very aware of the seriousness of the matter, the lifeblood of the Joseon Dynasty is now in his hands, if there are any three long and two short, he can't borrow soldiers, I'm afraid that the vicious battle between Jian Huaizhen and the emperor will not be solved so easily, he and Jian Huaizhen are old friends for decades, such a favor, he will definitely help Jian Huaizhen.
After he calculated properly, he decided to set off the next night and enter the palace to assassinate, before he left, he checked every pass on the map, and after checking it clearly, he could quickly enter the palace, with this map in hand, even if there were many guards in the palace, it would not be easy to defeat him.
On the second night, when the night was dark and he couldn't see his fingers, he changed into a night suit, and quietly came to the outside of the Korean Imperial Palace.
Ji Kaihan's light skills are really superb, and ordinary people with such a high wall can't jump up at all, but it's just a piece of cake for him.
After entering the palace, he walked on the high wall, and soon, according to the map, he arrived next to the Zhengyuan Palace where Li Yuanxiao lived.
After arriving at the outside of Zhengyuan Palace, he quietly jumped down from the wall, and then sneaked into the side of Zhengyuan Palace according to the map, he looked around, and saw that this place was really heavily guarded, and it was not so easy to enter through the main gate or window, so he jumped to the roof again according to the original plan.
He walked lightly on the roof, his body was as light as a swallow, trying not to make a sound, lest he be discovered, and soon, he almost turned the entire Zhengyuan Hall around, and every time he turned to a house, he would uncover the tiles and look down, and finally let him find the palace where Li Yuanxiao lived.
This palace is really magnificent, although there is no way to compare with the imperial palace in the Central Plains, but in North Korea, it can be regarded as a very luxurious place.
He lifted the tile and looked down, only to see a person lying on the bed, that person was lying in the bright yellow tent, not moving, obviously sleeping soundly, there was no one in the dormitory, presumably the four heavenly kings were guarding outside.
After figuring out the situation, he did not hesitate any longer, and gently uncovered more than a dozen tiles, revealing a small hole, which was enough for him to get into, he got into the small hole, but he jumped lightly and jumped on the beam, this leap was very light, and it would not alarm anyone at all, he walked lightly on the beam, and soon came to the other end of the beam, and then he climbed the wall and fell gently.
After falling down, he looked on the bed, and saw that Li Yuanxiao was still sleeping soundly, presumably because he didn't realize that he had come in at all, and he still had this confidence in his kung fu.
So he didn't hesitate any longer, picked up the sword in his hand, and stabbed it at the man on the bed.
After Ji Kaihan slashed down with a sword, he found that the person on the bed did not move, and then saw Yin Hong's blood flowing out, seeing this situation, Ji Kaihan couldn't help but be surprised.
What he was surprised was that this assassination plan went so smoothly, everything went so smoothly that it was a little unreasonable, he was a person who had walked through the rivers and lakes, and had seen strong winds and waves, if this assassination plan was difficult and dangerous, he could approve it, and now it was carried out so smoothly, everything was obviously illogical.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be shocked, he carefully judged the situation, and immediately understood that what he should do now was to leave the palace quickly, and it didn't matter whether the assassination plan was successful or not.
If it is successful, it is good, but if it is unsuccessful, you have to protect yourself, and you will have the opportunity to assassinate again in the future.
Thinking of this, he turned and lifted his feet to climb the beam again to escape, but at that moment suddenly a puff of smoke came towards him, and then he closed his eyes and knew nothing.
When he opened his eyes, he found that his hands and feet were tied and locked in the prison, and he carefully recalled the entire assassination process, only to know that he had failed to assassinate.
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel very depressed and incomprehensible.
He was thinking about what the whole thing was going on, when someone suddenly walked in with a laugh, and the man said while laughing, "Mr. Ji, Mr. Ji, I really didn't expect you to be planted in my hands." Hahaha. ”
The person who spoke was about thirty or forty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing brocade yellow clothes and crowned hats, and his words and deeds were quite overlord-like.
Ji Kaihan just glanced at him, and with his reading experience, he knew who this person was, if he didn't guess wrong, this person must be Li Yuanxiao.
Ji Kaihan was slightly stunned, and said heartily: "Okay, the so-called winner is the prince, and the loser is the loser." Today, when I fall into your hands, there is nothing to say, and if you want to kill me, you must listen to your respect. ”
"I know that if you want to kill or chop, there is nothing unacceptable to Mr. Ji, but if you want to convince Mr. Ji, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. I know what Mr. Ji wants to do when he comes to North Korea today, what you want to do is nothing more than to borrow troops from North Korea to help the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty. In this case, you borrowed troops from Yao Zhenyin, and borrowed troops from me, so why did you have to borrow troops from her and abandon me? You're right? Besides, Yao Jiyin is just a woman's family, and now she herself is in danger, she can't protect herself, and she can't take care of herself, where are the soldiers and horses to lend you? But I'm different, I, Li Yuanxiao, are now crisscrossing Korea, and a small half of the world's troops are already concentrated in my hands. ”
After Ji Kaihan heard him say this, he just sneered and didn't say a word.
Li Yuanxiao saw Ji Kaihan's appearance, knowing that no matter how much he coerced and tempted, he would not agree, although Ji Kaihan's name was far away in North Korea, he had heard of it, and knew that he would do anything for the sake of righteousness.
When Li Yuanzheng visited the Ming Dynasty, he once liked the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, when Li Yuanzheng asked Emperor Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty to marry Princess Huaizhen as his wife, and Princess Huaizhen was concerned in her heart, and she was unwilling to marry.
In short, when Ji Qihan was young, he did everything, not to mention that now in addition to his strong martial arts and narrow-mindedness, he has added a bit of intelligence and wit, if he can have this person around him to help, it must be able to calm the world soon.
Li Yuanxiao saw Ji Qihan's iron bones, so he said with a smile: "Although Mr. Ji's name is in a small country in North Korea, he has already heard of it, and he knows that Mr. Ji is an upright person, and he doesn't want to be reluctant. It's just that if you can get Mr. Ji's assistance, it will be a great thing for Zaixia. ”
Ji Kaihan sneered slightly, and said: "I think you are serious, first of all, Ji is not as good as you say, and secondly, even if Ji is really that good, he will not help you usurp the throne and be a chaotic minister and thief." ”
"Rebels and thieves? Mr. Ji, I think you are really mistaken, when did you become a rebel and a thief? It's just to snatch back my own country, which was originally mine. ”
