Chapter 145: Su Chen'an's Second Temptation
After the failure of the plan to encircle and intercept the sky, the remnants of Jiang Kuo's men retreated to the capital and regrouped.
"My lord, it's my subordinates who are useless, and I haven't been able to do the things you tell me to do."
The dead man apologized to Jiang Kuo and pleaded guilty.
"Your plan to encircle and suppress the sky was originally going very smoothly, but a few days ago, you came with news that you had encountered the vanguard of the sky, why did you run back so embarrassed in just a few days?"
Jiang Kuo looked at the people under him in disbelief.
"My lord, the reason why the encirclement and suppression plan went smoothly a few days ago was that we underestimated the prince's cunning, and when we were chasing and intercepting a pair of chariots and horses in the capital, and when we were all killed, we found that the people we encircled and suppressed were not actually the prince, they were all smoke bombs released by the prince in order to confuse us......
The dead bowed their heads in shame.
They never thought that that group of people who were so strong in force were not the long-awaited personal guards.
"Do you have any brains?"
When Jiang Kuo heard this, he scolded, what kind of stupid thing did he think the dead soldiers he had raised all these years!
"The person you have to deal with now is Su Lixiao, he is not an ordinary cat and dog, he is the victorious general of our dynasty!"
"Think about it with your dog brains, how can he be so easy to deal with a victorious general?"
"Did I warn you from the beginning, don't underestimate the enemy, don't underestimate the enemy, but none of you listened to me!"
Jiang Kuo scolded at the dead man in front of him.
"When I raised you, I did so much training for you, and now it seems that force alone is not enough, if you don't have brains, you are just a double-edged sword!"
A double-edged sword that can hurt both others and oneself.
Jiang Kuo looked at the wounded and crippled dead men kneeling in front of him, and his brows furrowed more and more.
"Which of you told me, did you alarm the sky this time? Do they know where you came from?"
Now that the first assassination mission failed, Jiang Kuo was unwilling.
But more than other things, Jiang Kuo cares more about whether the people under him have done more stupid things!
The dead are gone, and Jiang Kuo can raise another batch.
But if he, the mastermind behind it, is exposed, he will not have the life to make a comeback!
"My lord, although you can rest assured, all our brothers do not have any special marks on them, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suspects, they will definitely not suspect the heads of adults!"
"My lord, this is the first time that the person who assassinated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has appeared in front of people, and no one in His Royal Highness the Prince's team recognizes us!"
In order to make up for the stupid things he committed, the dead man was busy scrambling to explain to Jiang Kuo.
"You're really hopelessly stupid......
Jiang Kuo was already an eye-opener for the group of people in front of him.
He never thought that the dead soldiers under his command would be so stupid!
"Lord Ben doesn't mean to keep Su Lixiao from doubting me, I want you not to leave any handle and evidence in Su Lixiao!"
Jiang Kuo roared angrily.
In today's court situation, he and Su Chen'an have formed their own faction, and most of the remaining courtiers have moved closer to Su Lixiao.
Su Lixiao is not a fool, as long as he is hit, then he will subconsciously link this matter to his Jiang Kuo's head!
Jiang Kuo wasn't worried that Su Lixiao would doubt him, he was only worried that Su Lixiao would grab his handle.
"Adult ......"
The dead man was scolded by Jiang Kuo for being stupid several times along the way, and such words really made them unhappy.
But this time, it's really because of them that they got to this point.
Therefore, even if the dead have bitterness in their hearts, they can't say it.
"My lord, will we continue to send people to encircle and suppress His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future? He is now leaving Beijing all the way, eight times out of ten
Nine is looking for an antidote, do we need to ambush him again?"
The dead man's words made Jiang Kuo can't help but roll his eyes at his subordinates.
"Do you all think that Su Lixiao is as stupid as you? If he sensed that someone was trying to kill him, he would definitely hide his tracks!"
Shu Lixiao is a general who is shot down with a knife and a shot.
Such a man can skillfully use the art of war, far from being able to handle this group of fools under his hands.
"I'm afraid that I have already chosen another path now, even if you send more people to ambush on the official road, it will be useless!"
Jiang Kuo's repeated blows and insults made the group of dead soldiers who had made mistakes dare not ask more.
"You go to my study and bring me a map of the rest of Kyoto, and you will show me the route of the encirclement and suppression of the sky on the map!"
The group of rubbish under his hands can't be counted on, so Jiang Kuo can only count on himself.
"Yes, my subordinates will go!"
The dead soldiers under his command got up in a panic, and then went to the study to fetch the map, and they marked the direction of the long-awaited sky on the map.
"Su Lixiao has gone all the way down, where are they going?"
Jiang Kuo stared at the image of the road that had been left in the sky and thought.
"If I'm a long-cherished person and I'm poisoned and I'm dying, then the most important thing I want to do now is to cure myself."
However, the disease on Su Lixiao's body is not an ordinary disease, but has always been poisonous.
It was Concubine Dong and the remnants of the Western Xinjiang royal family who deliberately put poison on Su Lixiao's body in order to take revenge on His Majesty.
"The Hand of the Remnants of the Western Frontier ......"
Jiang Kuo looked at every location on the map in detail, and then his gaze stopped at Jiling Mountain Villa.
"Lord Ben remembers that when His Majesty exterminated the remnants of the royal family in Western Xinjiang, he had contact with this Jiling Mountain Villa."
"Yes, my lord, this Jiling Mountain Villa was originally a big gang in the rivers and lakes, but it was eventually destroyed by the remnants of the Western Frontier."
Among the dead people knew about the past, and echoed Jiang Kuo.
"I see......
Jiang Kuo finally had a rough outline of the route after escaping Kyoto in his mind.
Su Lixiao's departure from the capital this time was not a purposeless illness and rush to the doctor, he had always come with a plan.
"I finally know that the place I wanted to go to was this Jiling Villa!"
The poison on Su Lixiao's body is related to the remnants of the royal family in Western Xinjiang.
And Jiling Mountain Villa is also inextricably linked to the remnants of the royal family in Western Xinjiang!
Su Lixiao must have felt that Jiling Villa had the most dealings with the royal family in Western Xinjiang back then, so he wanted to go to Jiling Villa to find a glimmer of life.
Sure enough, whether it is a reckless man or a general, as long as a person reaches the point of dying, they will become a coward!
This is true of others, and so is the dream of leaving the sky.
Because he was too cowardly and afraid of death, he chose to go to Jiling Mountain Villa to find that faint hope!
It turns out that the generals who have won all battles are nothing more than that.
"Come, send another group of dead soldiers to follow the route that Su Lixiao has walked, and march in the direction of Jiling Villa!"
"However, this time you don't need to follow up on him, follow him secretly first, and see his purpose clearly before you do it."
Jiang Kuo thought about it and issued a new instruction to the people under him.
Since Su Lixiao now even believes in such a vain Jiling Villa, it means that Su Lixiao's body can no longer support it.
"My lord, after finding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't we really take action first and cut it down to the roots?"
The dead man felt that Jiang Kuo's order was very strange.
These dead soldiers are knives trained by Jiang Kuo, and for the knife, as long as it is opened, then it is going to kill people.
"Stupid thing, I'm going to tell you one of these people today
Truth, let you know what it means to kill by the sword!"
"Su Lixiao is already sick now, if he can't get the antidote in Jiling Villa, then he will definitely die in Jiling Villa."
As long as Su Lixiao dies of poison, then this matter will no longer have anything to do with him.
"If you find someone who can save Su Lixiao on the way to follow Su Lixiao, then you will kill even the people around Su Lixiao at that time!"
Jiang Kuo made two preparations, in order to be foolproof.
"Yes, sir!"
The dead soldiers withdrew from the courtyard, and after each of them received their punishments, they took their maps and chased them all the way along the place where Su Lixiao passed.
Jiang Kuo regrouped and prepared for the second encirclement and suppression against Su Lixiao,
On the other side, the doubts in the five princes' peace of mind are getting bigger and bigger.
He had been watching the movements of the Kyoto Divine Medicine Pavilion these days, and the group of people kept saying that Xi Qingyan was in retreat and refining medicine in the Divine Medicine Pavilion.
At first, Su Chen'an was skeptical about this.
But after a long time, Su Chen'an felt that the more he listened to this, the more he couldn't believe the words of the group of mustard people in the Divine Medicine Pavilion!
In order to confirm the authenticity, Su Chen'an once again found the Divine Doctor Pavilion.
"Don't you want to fight with me here today, let me tell you, if you don't hand over your Divine Doctor Valley Lord today, I will send troops to directly overthrow your Divine Doctor Pavilion, so that you will not be able to do business again!"
Su Chen'an yelled angrily at the head of the Divine Medicine Pavilion.
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, I'll go and see if the valley lord has come out."
"You misunderstood what this king meant, this king doesn't want you to try, this king wants you to bring the valley master!"
Su Chen'an was sure that there was something greasy here, and since that was the case, he wouldn't continue to indulge them!
「……」
Seeing that Su Chen'an's oil and salt did not enter, the head of the Divine Doctor Valley also knew that most of their Gu Lord's empty city plan had aroused Su Chen'an's suspicions.
"Fifth Prince, please stay here later, I will personally go to the place where the valley lord is retreating to invite the valley master."
"No, this king has not been pampered since he was a child, so I'll go with you to find someone!"
As long as Su Chen'an thought that Su Lixiao and Xi Qingyan had deceived him, he couldn't wait to bite the other party to death!
And how can you sit still in this place?
Su Chen'an followed the head of the Divine Medicine Pavilion to the courtyard of the Divine Medicine Pavilion, and he wanted to see if Xi Qingyan was inside.
"Valley Lord, the fifth prince has come to our Divine Doctor Pavilion, and he wants to see you?"
The head of the Divine Doctor's Pavilion shouted into the room.
But no one inside answered, and when Shuchen on the side did not move inside, he directly snatched a knife from the hand of the guard next to him, kicked open the door and rushed in.
"Miss Xi, I was worried that something might happen to you during your long retreat, so I broke down the door and asked for your understanding!"
The fifth prince said that he understood, but he took the knife that broke out of the door and searched all over the house.
"You Diao Min, keep saying to this king that your valley master is refining medicine in this house, and now, this king has not found anyone, since you dare to lie to this king, it seems that you are ready to move your head!"
Su Chen'an was angry and directly attacked the head of the Divine Doctor Pavilion.
"Fifth prince, the courtiers just slept lightly in this underground dark room for a while, but they didn't expect to cause such a misunderstanding......
