Chapter 6 Murder in the Chamber of Secrets
The furnishings in the secret room are very simple, with a bed, a table, and four stools. There is a pot of herbal tea and four teacups on the table, and an oil lamp hangs on the wall. The followers of Ao teach live a simple and self-denying life and do not pursue the pursuit of happiness.
Luxury and materialism...
Yang Kang chose this secret room not only to avoid being hunted by the Mongols, but also because he wanted to solve the problem in this closed space. Before going to rescue Li Chengzhen, he had already released a colorless and odorless poisonous gas in the secret room and also drank it.
After understanding the medicine, he only needs to wait. The longer the time, the better it is for him.
Li Chengzhen is also not in a hurry to take action. There are three people on their side now, which gives them an advantage in numbers. However, sometimes quantity does not determine everything. He knows from his sister that Wan Yankang is a martial arts master, so maybe he can use other means to deal with this person.
His Majesty the Emperor.
In this way, the two emperors smiled at each other and began to reminisce about the past.
They recalled the first time they met in Chang'an City. Without Yang Kang's guidance, Li Chengzhen would not have been able to find his sister Li Mochou. Li Mochou could be said to be an acquaintance between the two. They chatted about their past lives, each
They talked about the experiences of these years, how time flies, and lamented the impermanence of life. The world's major events in the past ten years disappeared into thin air in their talks and laughter.
In this cordial and friendly atmosphere, even Li Mochou's resentment towards Yang Kang was dissipated a lot. However, they did not discuss the current situation or discuss how to regain the Xixia Kingdom, because the other party was already a figure in their plan.
Dead man, who would talk about the future with a dead man?
Li Mochou listened with great interest, but Murong Yan showed a worried look. She noticed that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Based on her understanding of Wan Yankang and Li Chengzhen, the situation should not be like this. They are both very cautious people who speak.
But at this time, I was too candid. It's not that being candid is bad, but there will be monsters when things go wrong.
Suddenly, Yang Kang fell into a daze and lay down on the table, while Li Chengzhen showed a gloomy smile.
Emperor Li Chengzhen of the Western Xia Dynasty not only indulged in sexual activities in these years, but also tried to escape. His martial arts was not very good. To escape from the palace, he could only seek some other means, such as incense and Mongolian sweat medicine. Mongolian sweat medicine is a folk saying that it is made from grass.
Developed from Wu or Datura flowers, it can produce anesthesia and analgesia.
This kind of medicine was available in the Imperial Hospital of Xixia Kingdom and was easy to obtain. He kept it with him in case of emergency. Li Chengzhen and Yang Kang drank tea and chatted. He took the opportunity to pour tea for Yang Kang and took the medicine hidden in his nails.
Pour it into Yang Kang's tea cup and slowly wait for His Majesty the Emperor to fall, so there is no risk.
"What's wrong with him?" Murong Yan asked worriedly.
"Stunned." Li Chengzhen said calmly, "Suppress him first. I still have many things to ask him. This is his place after all. Once we leave this place, we will get rid of him."
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this? He is here to save us." Murong Yan said in confusion, "We still need to rely on him to recover the Xixia Kingdom."
"If you hadn't used the secret of his identity to threaten him, would he have come to Xixia to save me?" Li Chengzhen asked coldly, "Maybe he is thinking about how to get rid of us. I am just attacking first. As long as I leave,
Zhongxing Mansion, with the help of your disguise skills, we will go to the Song Dynasty and pretend to be the emperor of the Song Dynasty. We have the national power of the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty. Why worry about not being able to regain Xixia? It is better to seek help from others than to seek yourself. Why should we act based on his face?"
"This..." Murong Yan hesitated.
At this time, she couldn't help but think of Wan Yankang's question. What if His Highness the Prince had greater ambitions? However, what His Highness the Prince said made sense. If she hadn't escaped by chance, Wan Yankang would never have come to Xixia, let alone
Promising to regain Xixia, in the final analysis, this is a matter of trust.
The trust between the two men has long been gone, Murong Yan thought sadly.
Just when Li Chengzhen was about to tie Yang Kang up, applause sounded. Yang Kang woke up and looked at Li Chengzhen with a smile. He had been on alert and naturally saw Li Chengzhen's little movements. He pretended to be comatose just because he wanted to know about the Xixia emperor.
It's just the real intention.
"You drank it..." Li Chengzhen said in surprise.
"Brother Chengzhen, this can only mean that you don't have a deep understanding of martial arts. The internal strength I practice happens to be able to restrain ordinary poisons, and the poison you used is too ordinary." His Majesty the Emperor explained complacently.
As an emperor who has mastered peerless martial arts, Yang Kang has reasons to be proud. The only one who can compare with him in this regard is the Southern Emperor. However, the Southern Emperor has abdicated, and he is still the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Facts have proved that,
In this martial arts world, only by holding the dual identities of martial arts master and emperor can you live a stable life.
"It seems that I underestimated you." Li Chengzhen regained his composure and said calmly, "Now that you know my plan, there is no room for relaxation between us. Only one of us can survive."
"You are wrong. I am the one who survived. You have no chance." Yang Kang said in a deep voice.
"Sad and crisp breeze!" Murong Yan exclaimed.
"Yes, now that you have lost all your inner strength, how can you compete with me?" His Majesty the Emperor said domineeringly.
Li Chengzhen looked at Murong Yan and his sister. The two of them tested their luck. Sure enough, they could not raise their internal energy. It was obvious that the poisoning was deep. The Emperor of Xixia did not panic after knowing the result. He was the emperor of Xixia. Wan Yankang needed to find someone if he wanted to control Xixia.
To him, a puppet is nothing more than a new master, without any worries about his life.
"Okay, I admit defeat." Li Chengzhen sat down and said nonchalantly.
The Emperor of Xixia has experienced countless failures in his life, and his heart has long been numb. However, sometimes failure can mean starting over, and sometimes it means there will never be a chance again. Yang Kang took action and cut off Li Chengzhen's heart. This Xixia emperor
The emperor died at the age of thirty-six.
"He has already surrendered, why should we kill him?" Murong Yan said sadly.
"I will not cooperate with those who want to kill me." His Majesty the Emperor said calmly.
Li Chengzhen did not know that Yang Kang had no intention of letting the Xixia Kingdom continue to exist. The Mingjiao had already risen, so let the Xixia Kingdom completely disappear into history.
Murong Yan looked at the dead Li Chengzhen. She had been following His Highness most of her life. She wanted to continue to follow him, so she pulled out a dagger and stabbed herself in the heart. Yang Kang did not stop him, so maybe
It was the best outcome. Murong Yan fell down, and His Majesty the Emperor turned to look at Li Mochou.
When Yang Kang was thinking about how to deal with the elder sister of the Ancient Tomb Sect, an uninvited guest came to the Song Dynasty palace. It was Gongsun Zhi, the lord of Jueqing Valley. Gongsun Zhi thought he wanted to verify whether Wanyan Kang was Zhao Yun. He had a very simple idea.
