After laying out the secret move, Cheng Qiao ran to find Yan Lingji to rest.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Cheng Qiao sent someone to send Touman away.
Cheng Qiao was not in a hurry to return to Xinzheng, the drama was just beginning slowly, and it would not be too late to go back after a few more leisurely days.
The activity in the morning was fishing. There happened to be a small river in the mountain behind Qingping Villa. The river was pure and natural and pollution-free. Although the fish in it were not very big, they were full of vitality and tenacious.
Whoosh!
"Master Hou, I have something to report."
Xuanjian's figure suddenly appeared by the river, the black and white swords were straddled on his waist again, he bowed slightly, cupped his fists and saluted.
"speak."
Cheng Qiao, who was sitting cross-legged on the cushion, slowly opened his eyes. Next to him, Yan Lingji, who was a little bored, pricked up her ears and her eyes were full of curiosity.
Fishing is not a suitable activity for her. Grilling fish may be more suitable.
"The Chu State is about to start taking action."
"I know, you can go ahead."
"Here, my subordinates, go and come back quickly."
"Don't be anxious. It's more important to complete the mission well and ensure your own safety. I actually don't need your protection."
Xuan Jian didn't say anything more, with a determined look on his face, he bowed again and disappeared.
"Is there anything interesting happening over there in Chu State?"
Yan Lingji stretched out her green-white fingers and tapped Cheng Qiao's shoulder, blinked her eyes like stars, and asked curiously.
"Do you think the coup is fun?"
Cheng Qiao glanced at Yan Lingji, and then the old god held the fishing rod and said.
coup?
Yan Lingji's eyes lit up, it was so fun, so fun.
She did not forget that the Chu army was one of the armies that destroyed Baiyue. Like the Korean army, they also committed heinous crimes on the land of Baiyue.
This kind of internal strife and dog-eat-dog drama was her favorite.
"Please tell me what's going on in detail."
Yan Lingji had no intention of fishing anymore. She put down the fishing rod, grabbed Cheng Qiao's right arm with both hands and shook it. She looked up at her flawless and pretty face with hope. Her voice was as gentle as water, and she could also say "whisper".
Angry.
"Hold your fishing rod and listen to me slowly."
Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji immediately set up her fishing rod and acted like she was listening attentively.
Cheng Qiao did not break his promise and began to talk slowly from the beginning. The eye-opening secrets of the palace were slowly revealed in front of Yan Lingji...
On the other hand, Xuanjian left Qingping Villa and directly went to Chu State using Qinggong. He crossed mountains and rivers, crossed rivers, and moved in a straight line at an extremely fast speed. Unless there was a big river, it would be difficult to delay the journey.
That night, he arrived at his destination, Xiyang City, and skillfully met up with the trap killers in the city. After understanding the situation, he finished his meal, rested for a while, and then started the operation in the middle of the night.
At the east gate of Xiyang City, about twenty miles outside the city, a figure was riding a horse on a starry night. Suddenly, he saw a figure in the shape of a lake appearing on the dim road, blocking the middle of the road. While reining in the horse, he pulled out his own
Wearing a sword and shouting fiercely.
"who?"
"It would be rude of you to leave without saying goodbye."
The expression of the figure on the horse changed, and he said solemnly: "Are you sent by Lord Ling Yin?"
"No, that's not the case. Your Majesty Ling Yin has so many customers, why would you want to hold on to Zhu like this?"
"These two swords...you are from Qin State's Luowang!"
Xuanjian's figure in Mohu gradually became clearer. Zhu Ying on the horse saw the black and white swords held by Xuanjian, his face changed, and he thought a lot in an instant...
Why did people from the Qin State come to him? Why could they know his whereabouts so accurately? Could it be that the Li Yuan incident also involved the Qin State? Or was the Qin State one of the masterminds?
Forget it, why do you think so much? He is no longer Chunshengjun Huang Xie's retainer, he is just a Jianghu person. What does the right and wrong of Chu State's government have to do with him?
"Good knowledge, what is your choice?"
"I just want to be an ordinary Jianghu person."
"wrong selection."
Before he finished speaking, Xuan Jian slashed with the black sword in his right hand, and a powerful and powerful black sword energy flew out vertically. Zhu Yingtong shrank and quickly dodged.
Zhu Ying was able to escape in time, but it was a pity that the horse was cut in half directly from the middle. He didn't even have time to scream, and the smelly blood and internal organs were scattered on the ground, and it also exuded a warm breath.
Whoosh!
Xuan Jian's figure moved and came to Zhu Ying's side like a ghost. The two swords were slashed out in parallel. The sword blades broke through the air. Before the sound was heard, the blades were already cut. Together, they slashed towards Zhu Ying's waist. Zhu Ying had no time to dodge, so he had to block with all his strength.
.
clang!
A loud sound of gold and iron echoed in the silent mountains and forests. Sparks flew everywhere at the collision. Zhu Ying's still tall body slid back more than ten meters, leaving two clear scratches on the rammed earth.
My arm was slightly numb from the shock, my blood was surging, and I felt slightly uncomfortable.
If it is on a cement floor or an asphalt road, I am afraid that the soles of the shoes will be scratched directly...
Such powerful strength, he is worthy of being the first-class killer of Luo Wang. This person cannot be made an enemy!
As soon as he thought about this, Zhu Ying, who had just regained his footing, threw a few sword energy at Xuan Jian who was rushing towards him, then turned around and ran away.
Xuan Jian swung his black and white swords and shattered the sword energy without much effort. With almost no time wasted, he was in front of Zhu Ying again after two breaths.
"well……"
Zhu Ying sighed after seeing that his way was blocked, proving that he could not fight and escape, and then put down his sword neatly and said with a wry smile: "I choose Qin."
"You made the right choice, but you hesitated too much and you need to be punished."
Just as Zhu Ying was about to say something, he was kicked back by Xuan Jian's sudden kick.
Xuan Jian showed no mercy with this kick. He directly kicked Zhu Ying, who was about eight feet tall, several meters away. On the way, he also broke a tree as thick as a bowl and landed on the grass. He spit out a mouthful of blood and looked pale.
.
A tall shadow covered Zhu Ying's body. Xuan Jian, who sheathed his sword, took out a small red porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to Zhu Ying. He left a word and turned around to leave.
"Take one pill every day and the injury will be healed within five days at most. Get up and follow me."
Zhu Ying did not doubt that Xuan Jian wanted to harm him. If he really wanted to harm him, he could just kill him with one sword, or force him directly. There was no need to go to such great lengths.
Zhu Ying opened the porcelain bottle and took a pill. She felt a cool feeling lingering in her chest, which effectively relieved the burning pain in her chest. She quickly stood up, picked up her sword and followed.
The package was carried on Zhu Ying's back, so he didn't have to go to the bloody and smelly horse corpse to get the package and salute.
When Zhu Ying came to the road, he found Xuan Jian holding a small black porcelain bottle and dripping a drop of green liquid on the horse corpse, sizzling... The stench of smoke rose up, and in the blink of an eye, the two horse corpses turned into smoke.
The blood with blood bubbles quickly seeped into the soil.
Zhu Ying's face turned a little pale when he saw it. If he didn't understand current affairs, he would probably turn into a pool of blood in the end, right?
After handling the scene, Xuan Jian took Zhu Ying back to Xiyang City to rest.
The reason for arresting Zhu Ying is to save as many people as possible who know the truth. Except for Zhu Ying, other people who know the truth and are easier to control have already been caught in the trap.
…
The next day, Xuan Jian came to Shouchun, the capital of the King of Chu. Because King Kaolie of Chu was seriously ill, the atmosphere in the capital was quite tense. There were very few people walking on the streets and all businesses were depressed.
Xuanjian found the manpower that Luo Net had laid in Shouchun City, and entered Li Yuan's mansion smoothly. After meeting Li Yuan, he became one of the assassins responsible for the assassination of Chunshen Lord Huang Xie.
The survival of the King of Chu affects the hearts of the dignitaries of the Chu State. All dignitaries with a certain degree of power are doing everything they can to find out about the King of Chu from the palace. Among them, Huang Xie and Li Yuan, the kings of Chunshen, are the most frequent.
Although Huang Xie's power is no longer what it used to be, after all, he has served as the magistrate of the Chu Kingdom for more than 20 years. His skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and he still has many informants in the palace.
As a doctor and a disciple of the family, Li Yuan happened to be the first to win the throne. With his sister's support, various official appointments and promises, he secretly won over many people, and was aware of all the goings-on in the palace.
If you want to kill Huang Xie in the palace, you cannot let the assassin go with his true identity. The palace of Chu State is not as easy to enter as the Korean palace, so you must arrange a suitable identity.
Li Yuan, the doctor and gatekeeper who was responsible for guarding the monarch and being in charge of the palace gates, had a place to play. He could easily arrange suitable identities for Xuan Jian and others, such as replacing them with palace guards.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, the King of Chu in the palace finally passed away. The informants of all parties used various methods to convey the news to the outside world as quickly as possible.
Li Yuan was the first to receive the news, but Huang Xie received the news not much later than Li Yuan, but Li Yuan drove straight to the palace in a simple car.
Huang Xie did not expect that anyone would dare to attack him, nor did he expect that this person was Li Yuan, so as always, he waited for Ling Yin's guard of honor to be arranged before heading towards the palace majestically.
Of course, Huang Xie was not completely ignorant. At this special moment today, in order to control the palace, he still brought some of his close associates into the palace, but he did not bring an army.
Of course, you can't bring an army. Although King Chu passed away in the palace, there were no major changes. What is the operation of bringing an army into the palace?
It is definitely impossible to enter the palace gate with an army, unless you force your way in.
After entering the palace, as he went deeper and deeper into the palace, due to his authority, there were fewer and fewer people around Huang Xie. When he arrived at Thorny Gate, there were only a few trusted officials of Ling Yin left.
Thorny Gate generally refers to the door where ancient emperors would place a halberd when they went out. "thorn" is the same as "halberd". If it is in a palace, then it is the gate of the emperor's palace.
Having been in ambush for a long time, Xuan Jian and others, disguised as palace guards, suddenly attacked and charged out from both sides, cutting towards Huang Xie like a pair of scissors.
With calculated calculations and unintentional calculations, coupled with the fact that Li Yuan's side was obviously stronger, they killed all the people brought by Huang Xie in the blink of an eye. Several corpses fell to the ground with blood flowing...
Looking at the murderous palace guards rushing towards him, Huang Xie looked horrified and felt a deep sense of regret in his heart. He regretted not following Zhu Ying's advice, otherwise how could he have ended up like this...
Unfortunately, the thing that is out of reach in this world is the regret medicine. The assassin arranged by Li Yuan killed Huang Xie mercilessly, cut off Huang Xie's head and threw it outside the Thorny Gate.
The people outside the door were shocked and frightened when they saw Qing's head. Immediately, groups of palace guards appeared and surrounded the people, ordering them to surrender.
Most of the people surrendered in order to save their lives, but Huang Xie had been the magistrate of the Chu State for more than 20 years, and there were still some loyal and brave men around him. These people would rather die than surrender, and fought to the end with the palace guards, and were eventually killed.
kill.
After taking care of Huang Xie and the people Huang Xie brought, Li Yuan immediately sent an order to a Forbidden Army general who had already been roped in and happened to be stationed in Shouchun City. The Forbidden Army general directly led his troops to surround Chunshen Lord Huang Xie's mansion.
, followed by a bloody massacre.
Chunshenjun and Huang Xiefeng also started taking action almost simultaneously, and the people who set up traps in other places also started taking actions.
Except for King Chu You, everyone who had anything to do with Huang Xie was killed, even the slaves. The attack was truly ruthless!
With Li Yuan's cruel and ruthless temperament, if he didn't need the endorsement of King Chu You, I'm afraid even his nephew wouldn't be able to escape the murderous hand.
Killing Huang Xie's entire family and Huang Xie's forces cannot be accomplished in a short time. For Li Yuan, the most important thing is to control the Chu state's political affairs.
By the time the prominent aristocratic officials from the Chu Kingdom entered the palace, Li Yuan had already cleaned up the mess left in the palace, and it seemed as if nothing had happened.
Later, in front of the body of King Kaolie of Chu, his sister, nephews, and many noble officials, Li Yuan took out a posthumous edict, in which the prince succeeded to the throne, the queen was promoted to the queen mother, and Li Yuan was appointed as Ling Yin Fuguo.
The first two of this imperial edict are true, but only asking Li Yuan to serve as the commander of Yin Fuguo is false.
However, the new King of Chu and the new Queen Mother are Li Yuan's nephew and Li Yuan's sister. There is nothing wrong with Li Yuan becoming Ling Yin Fuguo.
Nepotism has always been an old tradition in Chu State. There is nothing strange about it. It would be strange not to be nepotistic.
The aristocratic officials of Chu State can only admit it. If they don't recognize Li Yuan, they don't recognize the new King of Chu and the new Queen Mother. However, King Chu Kaolie's legitimate son currently only has one King of Chu You. If he doesn't recognize him, who else can he recognize?
King Chu Ai, the posthumous son of King Chu Kaolie and a legitimate member of the Chu royal family, has not yet been found out.
Of course, even if he was found out, he was not born yet, so he would definitely not be a threat to his brother King Chu You's status.
After the aristocratic officials of the Chu State expressed their acceptance of the edict, the overall situation was settled. Li Yuan calmly dismissed the palace guards who were ambushing around the hall, and then followed the procedures to support the new King of Chu to ascend the throne.
After all, a country cannot live without a king for a day, so the funeral of the old king of Chu had to be postponed for a while until the new king ascended the throne and gave the order. Li Yuan's sister was promoted to the queen mother, and Li Yuan was promoted to the imperial court. He offered amnesty to the world, as a meritorious official.
And so on, everything must be done in the name of the new king.
It was not until night, when Li Yuan thought that the overall situation was settled, that he lifted the overt and covert blockade in the palace. Only then did the aristocratic officials of the Chu state receive news of the incident at Huang Xie's residence. After detailed inquiring, they finally learned roughly what happened.
After receiving the news, everyone had different thoughts and was roughly divided into three categories.
Those who are not close to Huang Xie just ignore the matter; those who have a grudge against Huang Xie just celebrate; those who are close to Huang Xie are panicked and think of various ways to make the new master accept them.
The only thing the three types of people have in common is that they are shocked by Li Yuan's ruthlessness. After all, Huang Xie is Li Yuan's benefactor.
As a powerful country in the world today, the Chu State can barely compete with the Qin State. Although it is a two-hand fight with one hand, there are also spies from various major forces in Shouchun City, and the news is spreading at an extremely fast speed.
All over the world...
