Chapter 74

The warden didn't answer when he heard this, but frowned, deliberately making an embarrassed expression, King Yi noticed the warden's abnormality, looked at him and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter, Lord Han, is there anything else?"

This is what the warden was waiting for, he said so much before in order to lead King Yi to this topic, he deliberately made a difficult expression, and after a moment of silence, he looked at King Yi and said embarrassedly, "Back to Your Highness, there is a small thing that feels strange, I am afraid that something will go wrong, so I came to find you."

Oh, what's the matter, you say" King Yi also frowned slightly when he heard this, and became interested in the warden's words

The warden had a solemn face, and after thinking for a moment, he looked at King Yi and said, "In order to poison King Han, I have made careful arrangements before and after, and it stands to reason that this matter will never be noticed by anyone, but after I poisoned King Han, he immediately ordered someone to bring me a message and said some very strange things."

"What did he tell you," King Yi asked subconsciously

The warden took a long breath, looked at King Yi and said slowly, "King Han ordered someone to bring me a message after eating the poisoned meal, he said, he accepted the things I sent, but there are some things that you have to bear the consequences, he asked me if I was ready, I feel that he already knows that we have poisoned his food" The warden said this, with an unconcealable fear in his eyes, "His Royal Highness King Yi, how do you say he knows" The warden asked with a puzzled face

Yiwang's face was heavy, his eyes became cold, and after a moment of silence, he took a long breath, "He can predict his life and death, I didn't expect the Guigu divination technique to be so powerful" Yiwang said in a deep voice, his voice was very small, and he didn't look at the warden when he spoke, more like he was talking to himself

The warden didn't hear what King Yi was saying, and his face was full of doubts at the moment, "Your Highness, what did you just say, what kind of divination?"

King Yi didn't answer the warden's words, his face was solemn at the moment, as if he was thinking about something, and it took a long time before he looked at the warden and said slowly, "You're right, King Han already knows about your poisoning him, and he must know that you are behind the scenes" King Yi said frankly, without the slightest concealment

The warden was also full of surprise when he heard this, although he had already guessed in advance that King Han might know about their poisoning, but when these words came out of King Yi's mouth, he was still shocked, and he was more shocked than worried, "Your Highness, then what should we do next" He looked at King Yi in a bit of a panic and asked

King Yi's eyes were cold, and he looked at the warden and said in a deep voice, "How long can King Han live?" ”

The warden was stunned when he heard this, and then responded, "Back to Your Highness, the medicinal power of Jiuyang Soul Breaking Scatter will kill on the ninth day, and King Han can only live for eight days at most."

Hearing this, King Yi's face was gloomy and fell into deep thought, and after a while, he looked at the warden and said in a deep voice, "During this period, you must keep it secret, try not to let the people in the prison have too much contact with King Han, to prevent them from leaking the news, and from now on, outsiders and others are not allowed to enter the prison, and the relatives and friends of the prisoners are forbidden to visit relatives, you will arrange it when you go back, and there will be no mistakes" King Yi ordered in a deep voice

The warden nodded when he heard this, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it for a long time, King Yi noticed the warden's discomfort, looked at him and asked, "What's wrong, Lord Han, do you still have any questions?"

After thinking for a while, the warden said with some embarrassment, "Your Highness, the small ones in the prison can be operated single-handedly, but the outside world, this ......, you also know that His Royal Highness King Enwang and Princess Chenxi often come to visit the prison, and the little ones don't have the courage to stop them."

"King En" King Yi repeated coldly, his face was extremely ugly, this is also the point he is most afraid of, King Han has mastered the divination technique of Guigu, and holds all the secrets of him and King Ya in his hands, each of which is a capital crime, and now King Enwang can be described as powerful, even the prince has to be afraid of three points, once these two people collude, they must have no good fruit to eat, and more importantly, King Han has already known that he and King Ya jointly poisoned him, once this matter is known by King En, they will be all finished

Thinking of this, King Yi's eyes had murderous intent in his eyes, and he just wanted the warden to do it again, send King Han to hell as soon as possible, and cause some trouble in the province, but he quickly calmed down, he knew that he must not be impulsive at this moment, if he shot at King Han again, it was likely that the plan would be exposed, and then the emperor would directly find out about his head, and now there is only one way, which is to drag King En, and not let him meet with King Han, as long as the two of them can't get together, even if King Han masters the divination technique of Guigu, it is useless, Thinking of this, he immediately looked at the warden and said in a deep voice

"You arrange the affairs of the prison, as for King En's side, I'll figure out a way, he shouldn't have time to take care of King Han's affairs in the near future" King Yi's face was gloomy, and when he talked about King En, he would feel an inexplicable indignation, and he was right, King En had other things to do in recent days, and he really didn't have time to take care of King Han in the prison, but even so, King Yi and King Ya couldn't be happy

After the Anshi Rebellion, the feudal towns were divided, and the troops of the Tang Dynasty were all concentrated in the frontier to prevent the various sections from making the troops in rebellion, and the prince was also far away from the pass over the years, holding military power, but this also led to the emptiness of the troops in the interior of the Tang Dynasty, and the defense was weak, the eastern capital Luoyang was fine, and there was a tiger prison pass as a barrier, so it would not be too threatened, but the Beijing division Chang'an was only garrisoned by 30,000 imperial forest troops, and it was difficult to deal with any changes

For the long-term plan, the emperor decided to strengthen the defense around the Beijing Division, one is to deal with the possible changes in Chang'an City, and the other is to deal with another huge strong enemy in the north of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo, Pizhou, Tongguan are the two major fortresses of Chang'an City, once lost, Chang'an will become precarious, so the emperor decided to elect a cronies to take over the military defense of the two major fortresses of the Beijing Division, responsible for strengthening the military garrison of the two fortresses

But Chang'an City is now short of major generals, and the only few remaining generals still have to lead the Imperial Forest Army, responsible for the defense of the Beijing Division, and they can't withdraw at all, and it is impossible to select generals from the border pass, because the situation outside the pass is also not optimistic, and finally under the advice of the ministers, a prince with achievements was selected to be responsible for the military defense of the two major fortresses of the Beijing Division

In the end, under the recommendation of the ministers, King En naturally took over the military defense of the two fortresses, and the emperor did not have any objections, firstly, he was the most partial to King En, and secondly, because he preferred his own safety in the hands of his son compared to those prestigious generals, so as to strengthen the power of the imperial power

And the most reluctant to see this happen is not those generals, but other princes in Chang'an, because taking over the guards of the two major fortresses is equivalent to directly taking charge of the armies of the two towns of Jingshi, which is military power, and it is of great significance, responsible for the defense of the fortresses around Chang'an, and the emperor's move is equivalent to putting the safety of the Jingshi in the hands of King En

After this incident, King En's influence increased again, he was in charge of military power, and he held the power of martial arts, completely suppressing the other princes, and it is no exaggeration to say that King En's power at this time is no less than that of the prince who is far away in the frontier

King Yi felt deeply unwilling and angry about this, but he was helpless, but this incident also provided an opportunity for him to poison King Han, the emperor issued an edict the day before yesterday, and King En left Chang'an the next day to take over the military defense of the two major fortresses, and there was no time to take care of Chang'an during this time

Their plan to poison King Han and blame the winner Yu Sin can be carried out smoothly, thinking of this, he immediately looked at the warden and said, "King En's can't go to the prison these days, you just need to be optimistic about the others."

The warden nodded, but there was still a trace of concern in his eyes, he looked at King Yi with some embarrassment and said, "Your Highness, what about Princess Chenxi, she will visit King Han in the prison every once in a while, if King Han tells Princess Chenxi the reason for the incident, it means that King En's knowledge also knows."

King Yi shook his head when he heard this, but he didn't feel any worries about this, he looked at the warden and said casually, "The winner Yu Sin is injured, Chenxi has been taking care of him these days, there shouldn't be much of a problem, besides, ......" Speaking of this, King Yi paused, and there was murderous intent in his eyes, "If Chenxi really knows the truth of the matter, then don't let her get out of the prison alive" King Yi's words were like ten thousand years of ice, without a trace of emotion

When the warden heard this, he only felt a chill down his spine, he had never seen such a cruel person, for his own interests, he first poisoned his own brother, and now he killed his sister, it was simply a loss of conscience

When the warden was shocked, King Yi's cold voice sounded again, only to hear him sneer and say in a gloomy tone, "The winner Yu Sin approached Chenxi and King En, in order to avenge the murder of his father, and relied on this relationship to enter the prison and take the opportunity to poison King Han, and then he killed Chenxi, isn't this a matter of course, just like King Han was killed, the murderer is naturally him and not us, Lord Han, do you say yes" King Yi said faintly, his voice was extremely weird

The warden nodded stiffly, and didn't say anything more, at this moment he felt his scalp tingle, and the actions of this tyrant in front of him made him shudder, if he was like this to his own brothers and sisters, how could he be kind and righteous to others

For the service of this kind of brutal monarch, what good will he do, human life is just an ant in his eyes, the warden believes that if one day he touches the interests of King Yi, he will not hesitate to get rid of himself, the warden has a solemn face, after hesitating for a moment, he looked at King Yi and said, "Little understand, I will go back to arrange, farewell" After that, he hurriedly retired and left the palace of King Yi, he planned in his heart, how to survive in this cruel royal fight, and at the same time he secretly calculated in his heart, He had to find a way to break free from King Yi's control, otherwise he would die sooner or later

After the warden left, King Yi stood alone on the main hall, as if thinking about something, his face was solemn, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes, "Strange, since King Han knows that the food is poisonous, why does he still eat it, what is the purpose of his doing this" King Yi muttered to himself, his gloomy voice echoed in the hall, ethereal and heavy
