Chapter 193: "Hongmen Banquet"

"That can only re-cultivate a group of cronies!" Zhang Beichen said.

[You asked the King of Qi for a sum of money to cultivate cronies. 】

In this game, Jiang Chan followed Zhang Beichen to do it, she wanted to see if Zhang Beichen could help her turn the tables against the wind.

In a short period of time, it is impossible to train the dead.

Zhang Beichen selected some people from the children of the office and placed them in the palace.

These people are of the same clan as Jiang Chan and have a high degree of credibility.

It is easy to fail to launch a mutiny, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Zhang Beichen asked Jiang Chan to find a way back.

"This king has no cronies in Linzi (the capital of Qi State), only Jiang Shan, the former county guard of Jimo City, is the uncle of this king, if something happens to this king, my uncle will definitely help." Jiang Chan said.

Jimo City is a coastal city and the second largest city in Qi after the capital.

The Jiang family has a lot of power in Jimo, but in order to suppress the power of the office, Tian Heng has already replaced the county guard of Jimo City, and now the county guard of Jimo City is Tian Heng's son, Tian Zhe.

Zhang Beichen pondered: "Then contact Jiang Shan in advance and ask him to help respond." ”

"According to you!" Jiang Chan said.

……

[After a year, you helped the King of Qi cultivate a group of guards loyal to the King of Qi, Tian Heng became more and more arrogant, proclaimed himself king, and ranked with the King of Qi in the court. 】

"Zhang Beichen, don't you want to do it yet?" Jiang Chan was a little anxious, "Tian Heng already wants to usurp the throne!" ”

"It's not very sure right now...... The situation is forced to do it! Zhang Beichen also realized that there was no time to prepare for him.

Tian Heng had already begun to take control of the Qi Palace, and the subordinates he had cultivated were about to be replaced by Tian Heng's men.

This shows that Tian Heng is already preparing to usurp the throne, and time waits for no one.

[On the pretext of the birthday banquet, the king of Qi feasted his ministers in the palace, including Prime Minister Tian Heng and General Tian Wei. 】

……

"The king wants to invite the prime minister to the banquet?" Tian Heng received the news, a little strange.

Jiang Chan was usually very afraid of him, and she didn't dare to talk to him at all, so she was worried that she would be killed by him. Now that he is uncharacteristically invited to a banquet, there must be a problem.

He attracted the eyes of the palace and asked about the situation, "Has the king behaved abnormally lately?" ”

Eyeliner replied, "Not really." It's just that the king has recently gotten closer to a guard, and that guard has been promoted by her to be the commander of the guards! ”

"Guards? Hum! Tian Heng already had a resolution in his heart.

[On the day of King Qi's birthday banquet, the ministers went to the banquet one after another. Tian Heng and Tian Wei also came to the banquet, and they brought many armor soldiers. 】

The first half of the birthday banquet was held as scheduled.

Zhang Beichen observed the situation, he wanted to poison him, but Tian Heng was very shrewd, and asked his subordinates to check the food and wine before drinking, so there was no chance.

There were too many armor soldiers brought by the Tian brothers, and Zhang Beichen gave Jiang Chan a look.

Jiang Chan said: "Today, the king is happy, and the soldiers outside are also appreciating, let them congratulate together." ”

"Thank you, Your King!" Tian Heng thanked the entourage, but the entourage did not take a drop of blood, and did not take Jiang Chan's words seriously at all.

Zhang Beichen had no choice, so he took the initiative to say: "Minister, please cheer up the king's sword dance!" ”

"Accurate!" Jiang Chan almost understood Zhang Beichen's thoughts, he should have wanted to take the opportunity to approach Tian Heng and assassinate him.

Zhang Beichen pulled out his sword and approached Tian Heng while dancing his sword.

Tian Xie noticed the vision and said, "Ben will be in high spirits, and he will also cheer for the king to dance the sword!" ”

Saying that, he didn't care whether Jiang Chantong agreed or not, and directly drew his sword to meet Zhang Beichen.

Tian Heng himself was a master of the Nine Realms, and Zhang Beichen had no chance to assassinate Tian Heng through his defenses.

Until the end of the sword dance, Zhang Beichen had no chance to assassinate.

"Just do it?" Zhang Beichen observed that his own person was not the opponent of the Tian family's armor at all.

Tian Evil brought elite soldiers, and the realm was all above the fifth realm!

And the subordinates he cultivated this year could not be their opponents at all.

Zhang Beichen gave Jiang Chan a look again and motioned for her to leave.

Jiang Chan drank a glass of wine, pretended to want to go to the toilet and said, "This king needs to leave for a while, please continue." ”

Jiang Chan quickly came to the back of the palace, where Zhang Beichen was already waiting.

She asked nervously, "Zhang Beichen, why hasn't it started yet?" ”

Zhang Beichen shook his head and said, "The Tian family brothers are completely prepared, and we don't have a chance to do it. If you force your move, you will definitely fail. ”

"So what now?" Jiang Chan asked.

Zhang Beichen's eyes were fierce, and he said, "Run away!" ”

"Run?" Jiang Chan was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you want to run?" ”

Zhang Beichen analyzed: "Our actions just now have made the Tian brothers suspicious. They'll surely think that we want to kill them when we get there. ”

"Now Tian Heng and Tian Wei have suspicions about the king, as long as they think that the king can't control it, they will quickly get rid of the king and me. Usurcharge the throne or prop up a new puppet! ”

"In that case, it's better to flee the capital directly before they react! Go to Jimo City! ”

Jiang Chan was a little hesitant, and now she escaped, which was equivalent to taking the initiative to give up the throne and become a fugitive.

After so many simulations, she had never used this method before.

"Well, this king will believe you once." Jiang Chan said.

She immediately disguised herself and left the palace under the cover of Zhang Beichen and a group of cronies, and quickly fled outside the city.

……

At the wine table, Tian Heng and Tian Wei were discussing what had just happened.

"The king is unusually today, I'm afraid he has a poisonous plan!" Tian Heng said in a low voice.

"Brother!" Tian Xie said, "The king's entourage just now said that he wanted to dance the sword, but the younger brother thought that he wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate his brother!" was stopped by his younger brother, so he gave up! ”

"It makes sense, and my brother thinks the same way!" Tian Heng nodded slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, "King Qi is getting older, I'm afraid that he is unwilling to be controlled by me, so he wants to murder me!" ”

Tian Xi's face turned cold, and he said: "Brother, the government and military power of this Qi country are under the control of you and me!" We have done so many things for the Qi country, whether it is the courtiers or the people, they are all grateful to our Tian family. ”

"In that case, what do you want Jiang Chan to do, it's better not to do it, and then not to stop, my brother will ascend the throne and let my Tian family sit on this throne!"

When Tian Heng heard his words, he didn't scold, but was a little moved, he hesitated: "Ascending the throne at this time, I'm afraid that some people will not accept it." ”

"Whoever refuses to accept it, kills it!" Tian Wei said.

"Let me think twice about this!" Tian Heng was still struggling, and after a while, he frowned and said, "What about King Qi?" Why didn't it come out? ”

He asked the king of Qi's attendants.

The attendant said, "The king is already drunk, and he has fallen asleep. The king asked the prime minister to entertain his ministers on his behalf. ”

"Really?" Tian Heng didn't think too much about it.

Because Jiang Chan is a cowardly and fearful little girl in his eyes, she usually doesn't like to drink, and it is normal to get drunk.

Tian Heng continued to drink with his ministers, but Tian Xie secretly ordered his entourage: "Go, find the person who danced the sword just now, and kill him for Ben General!" ”

"Yes!" The entourage immediately went to look for Zhang Beichen and looked for a while in the palace, but did not find Zhang Beichen.

"General, this person has not been found, he seems to have left the palace." Entourage reports.

"Out of the palace? It seems that this man must be the king's assassin! Tian Wei concluded, "Go, see if the king is sleeping in the palace now?" ”

"Yes!" The retinue went to the palace again to check.

Soon, he came with the news: "General, the king is not in the palace, and our eyes don't know where she is." ”

"What?" Tian Xi's face changed, "A big living person, can he still disappear?" ”

He immediately informed Tian Heng of the matter.

Tian Heng thought for a while, suddenly stood up, and shouted: "It's not good, the little girl of the Jiang family, I'm afraid she has already escaped!" ”

He directly ordered the armor soldiers: "Quick, find out the King of Qi!" Inside and outside the palace, you have to look for it! Seal the city gates! Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find her! ”

"Yes!" The armorers hurried to find someone.

Sure enough, they did not find King Qi in the palace.

"Bastard!" Tian Heng scolded, "If she is allowed to run away, even if she ascends the throne, it will be unjustifiable!" ”

If he usurped the throne, it would inevitably cause public criticism and dissatisfaction.

If Jiang Chan took the initiative to concede, at least nominally, she would not be at a loss.

……

At this moment, Zhang Beichen and Jiang Chan had already fled the capital of Qi and were on their way to Jimo City.

There were already people on the road to pick them up, so the escape road was relatively smooth, and there was no scene of the previous Zhao State simulation and wilderness escape.

Half a month later, the two came outside Jimo City.

Jimo City is the second largest city in Qi Kingdom!

It is a seaside city and the largest port city in the Seven Kingdoms!

In this era, shipping was not yet developed, but the Qi country had sea ships, which were mainly used to transport sea salt!

Jimo City is also the largest producer of sea salt in the world at this time, so this city is very rich.

At this time, the county guard of Jimo City was Tian Heng's son Tian Zhe.

Tian Heng has many heirs, and Tian Zhe is one of the better ones, so he won Tian Heng's love and let him take charge of Jimo City.

Tian Heng has secretly issued an order, claiming that the king of Qi was held hostage by the rebellious party Zhang Beichen, so that the people of the world have been looking for the king of Qi, if they can find it, the reward will be a thousand taels!

At this time, the reward order had not yet been sent to Jimo City, and Tian Zhe did not care.

Zhang Beichen and Jiang Chan did not enter the city, but went to a county seat near Jimo.

This is the fief of Jiang Chan's uncle Jiang Shan.

Zhang Beichen and Jiang Chan met Jiang Shan smoothly.

Jiang Shan is an old man with gray hair, and when he saw Jiang Chan, he cried bitterly: "The king has fallen here, it's my Jiang Shan's sin!" ”

Jiang Chan comforted: "Uncle, don't be sad. There was no freedom in the palace, and when the king left the palace, he felt in a good mood. ”

Zhang Beichen said: "Jiang Taigong, Tian Heng has issued a wanted warrant, please Taigong must keep the king's news secret, otherwise the king's and Taigong's lives are in danger!" ”

Jiang Shan said: "This old man is naturally provincial. ”

He asked, "Who are you?" ”

Jiang Chan said: "His name is Zhang Beichen, and he is the king's guard!" It was he who helped the king escape from the palace. ”

"I see." Jiang Shan knew that this person was Jiang Chan's cronies, and his attitude towards him was a little better.

The two hid in Jiang Taigong's fiefdom.

And the country of Qi and the world are in an uproar because of the disappearance of the king of Qi.

Tian Heng has not yet sat on the throne at this time, but is only acting as the government, he plans to find Jiang Chan and force her to give way, or directly kill Jiang Chan, and then dump the pot to others, avenge the king of Qi himself, and ascend the throne logically. In short, stand on the righteousness.

……

"King Qi is missing? With Zhang Beichen? Zhao Yun, who heard the news, seemed to think of something, "Could it be that this time he wants to play revenge with King Qi?" ”

……

"What's the situation? What about Zhang Beichen? King Qi is too vegetable! "Wei Yao hasn't even started to brush Zhang Beichen's favorability in this game, and the two of them disappeared.

"Continue to send spies to this king, continue to search!"

……

"It seems that the King of Qi should be Tian Heng in this game, Zhang Beichen and Jiang Chan are not dead, so they will definitely come out to do something soon. Qi Guo has no energy to manage Yan Guo in this game, just to give this king time to develop. "Yan Qingwu began to vigorously develop the Yan Kingdom.

King Han and King Chu are all seizing the time to develop.

……

The search warrant has been sent to Jimo City, Tian Heng specially emphasized that Tian Zhe should go to Jiang Shan's fiefdom to investigate, he felt that if the King of Qi did not escape from Qi State, the biggest possibility was to defect to Jiang Shan.

Tian Zhe took the soldiers to Jiang Shan's fiefdom to investigate.

"What do you mean, Commander?" Jiang Shan saw that the other party was with a soldier, and asked, "Is it to use soldiers against the old man?" ”

"It's too public." Tian Zhe didn't want to start a war with Jiang Shan, the Jiang family had been operating here for many years, and if it started, he wouldn't be sure.

"I received a report that the rebel party may have fled into your Jiang family's territory, so I came to check. I hope that Taigong will cooperate with one or two, so as not to hurt the harmony! Tian Zhe's tone was threatening.

Jiang Shan was not frightened by him at all, but scolded: "How can this happen, the old man has been staying in the fiefdom and has never caused trouble." I haven't heard of any chaos either! ”

"County guard, go back! If there is really any chaos, the old man will definitely send him to the county guard in person! ”

Tian Zhe pondered whether to forcibly search.

At this time, the house slaves of the Jiang family all looked at each other with weapons and malice.

Tian Zhe thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then please pay more attention to the princess, and the official will come back in ten days!" ”

The reason why he said ten days was to mobilize more men.

Summoning the nearby sergeants, how can Jiang Shan stop him at that time?

……

After Jiang Shan "persuaded Tian Zhe to retreat", he immediately found Jiang Chan to discuss: "Your Majesty, the Tian family seems to be determined to investigate here. When they bring in sergeants, the old man will not be able to keep the king. The king might as well plan early! ”

Jiang Shan asked, "Is there anything my uncle can do?" ”

Jiang Shan pondered: "For today's plan, the king can only go to the country to borrow troops. The national strength of the Yan State is weak, and he will definitely not dare to be the enemy of the Qi State. Only the next State of Wei, Zhao or Chu has a chance. Why don't you go to Zhao Kingdom first and ask King Zhao for help? ”

Jiang Chan hesitated a little, and asked Zhang Beichen again: "Zhang Beichen, what can you do?" ”

Zhang Beichen said: "The minister thinks that he can't go to other countries at this time, but to stay in Jimo City!" ”
