Chapter 1: The Last Game

A month after the death of the Mongolian Prime Minister Yelu Chucai, the first snow had just fallen on the grasslands of Mobei, and a group of Mongols left Mobei and headed towards the Central Plains.

Tixue was a warrior selected from the Mongol nobility, they were responsible for taking care of Temujin's daily life and protecting the safety of the Great Khan, Tixue was a hereditary position, with a high level of loyalty, which was the reason why Yelu Chucai handed over the last layout to them to carry out, these people went to the Central Plains for only one purpose, that is, to find out the life and death of the emperor of the Dajin Kingdom, Wanyan Kang, they were for a shame.

When Temujin was assassinated, they were nearby, but they could not do anything about it, watching the blind woman put her hand into the head of the Great Khan and throw it on the ground at will, whenever they thought of this scene, they felt a deep humiliation, this humiliation needs blood to wash away, they want to find the enemy, use the enemy's head to wash away the shame.

Yelu Chucai thinks that Yang Kang is still alive, but he doesn't know where he is, but as long as there is still this person in this world, there will inevitably be traces, and there are several clues that can be traced, one is the Jin State, the emperor may be hidden behind the scenes of the Jin court, the second is Yang Tiexin, the emperor may also be with his family, and the third is the Song State, the Mongolian prime minister feels that this may be a store.

According to Yelu Chucai's guess, these cowardly Xue were divided into three routes, all the way to the Kaifeng Imperial City of the Jin State, all the way to track down Yang Tiexin's whereabouts, and all the way to the Lin'an Mansion of the Song State.

But the sea of people is vast, it is not easy to find a person who has died, the way to track down Yang Tiexin has made the fastest progress, this is related to the beggar gang, when Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiweak fled from the middle capital, it was the relationship between the beggar gang, and then stayed in Baoying because of the Baoying beggar gang's rudder, since the beggar gang Junshan Conference, although Lu Youjiao has become the gang leader, but his prestige is not enough, the dirty clothes faction and the clean clothes faction are still full of contradictions, in the upper echelons of the beggar gang, Yang Tiexin and Bao Xi's weak storage zài is not a secret.

Yelu Chucai thought of the relationship between Guo and Yang's two families, Guo Jing must know where Yang Tiexin is, and Guo Jing is a member of the beggar gang, so follow this clue to investigate and there will be gains, Temujin's guards have a good relationship with the disciples of the beggar gang, after some careful investigation, all the clues point to Baoying County in the Song Kingdom.

Yang Tiexin has been a general in Mongolia, and he is also famous in Baoying, it is not difficult to identify, these Mongolians did not startle the snake, what they are looking for is not Yang Tiexin, but the emperor of the Jin State Wanyan Kang, according to Yelu Chucai's explanation, the next step is to lead the snake out of the hole, they gave the portrait of Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiweak to the Rongwang Wanyan Hongxi of the Jin State.

King Rong Wanyan Hongxi sent someone to Baoying to check the situation and confirmed that Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiqiao lived together, according to the nephew, Bao Xiqiao had died on the way to escape from the Imperial City of Zhongdu, so what was going on? King Rong found the current Empress Dowager of the Jin Kingdom, since Wan Yan Xu ascended the throne, Concubine Rong became the Empress Dowager, and under Wan Yan Hongxi's questioning, she had to tell the truth.

Wanyan Hongxi didn't care about Bao Xi's life and death, he was thinking about another question, along with those two portraits, there was also a guess, about the complete version of the life experience of Wanyan Kang, the emperor of the Jin State, which was written by Yelu Chucai when he was dying, the argument is detailed, the logic is rigorous, Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiqiao living together is the best proof, if Wanyan Kang is a Jin person, how can he let his mother live with a Han person.

Yelu Chucai not only wants to provoke the relationship between Wanyan Hongxi and Yang Kang, but also to force the emperor of Jin who faked his death out, this is to lure the snake out of the hole, King Rong Wanyan Hongxi is very important in Jin, as long as he proves that Yang Kang is a Han Chinese, then Wanyan Hongxi will naturally act in the direction he expected, there is no doubt about the background of Wanyan Xu, the new monarch of Jin, Wanyan Hongxi is better to support the current new monarch Wanyanxu than to support an emperor with an unknown background.

In this way, can the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom who faked his death still be able to maintain his composure?

Once Yang Kang is in chaos, Jin Guo will inevitably have civil strife, whether Yang Kang kills Yan Hongxi, or Yan Hongxi kills Yang Kang, Jin Guo will be greatly injured, if the two of them can still maintain their composure, then Yelu Chucai's next step is to let people disguise themselves as Jin soldiers to kill Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiweak, and reproduce the Niujia Village tragedy fourteen years ago, he doesn't believe that the student can still maintain his composure in the case of the tragic death of his parents.

He not only wants to force Yang Kang out, but also force Yang Kang to a dead end, this is only the first part of Yelu Chucai's last layout, if that student passes this pass, there are other tests below, although Yelu Chucai has passed away, but this game of chess has just begun.

The investigation is not only carried out by the Mongolian cowardice, but also the Imperial City Division of the Song State, which is similar to the Yipintang of Western Xia, composed of military attaches and chamberlains, responsible for exploring the movements of ministers and people, and reporting directly to the emperor, and the Imperial City Division wants to investigate the cause of death of Zhao Xun, the crown prince of the Song State, as well as the life history of several prince candidates.

Since the death of Zhao Xun, the crown prince of the Song Kingdom, the government and the opposition of the Song State began to discuss the selection of the new prince, among which Zhao Guihe, the king of Yi, had the highest voice, but the matter has not yet been decided, and the Taixue student Zhao and Ju are also in the list of candidates.

The secret agents of the Imperial City Division began to investigate these candidates for the crown prince, mainly because of the character of Ping Rì, they would access the archives of various places, and they would also go to various places to search, these were just routines, about the cause of death of the former prince Zhao Xun, the Imperial City Division preliminarily identified it as caused by typhoid fever, but the death was too sudden, and it must be carefully investigated.

If they dissect the corpse of the crown prince Zhao Xun, they will definitely find that there is a needle in Zhao Xun's body, which is the bone needle of Peach Blossom Island, as long as it is patted lightly on the person's body, the bone needle will enter the person's body, firmly nailed to the joints of the bones, and the needle has slow xìng poison, which can put people to death.

If the person who put the incense on it was Zhao Kuo, the emperor of the Song Kingdom, Dao Tong could only give the incense to the palace people, and then the palace people would transfer it to the emperor, as the emperor would not take things from strangers, while the prince did not have this scruples, his identity was different, and the security measures were different.

Yang Kang stayed in Taixue, waiting for the results of the investigation of the Imperial City Division, he made detailed preparations for the character of Zhao and Ju, and was very confident that he could pass the level of the Imperial City Division, Xie Yili was running up and down, making a point for his classmates Zhao and Ju, if Zhao and Ju became the crown prince, then Xie Dacai would be the future emperor's close minister.

At this time, His Majesty did not know that something had happened in the north, and his teacher left him with a difficult problem to solve. (To be continued.) )
