Hou Junji didn't know the inside story and naturally he wouldn't listen to Fang Xuanling. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and cursed: "Mr. Liang, are you trying to protect a sinner?
Do you know that this Minister of Household Affairs has just committed the crime of beheading!"
"Chen Guogong doesn't have time to talk about these things now... The people of Goguryeo have bad intentions, and they are planning something big."
Fang Xuanling made a long story short, explaining that Goguryeo might use this to invade the border and attack the capital of the Tang Dynasty.
Hou Junji was particularly surprised after hearing this: "Is there such a thing?
Mr. Fang, this is a very serious matter, so you can’t joke around!”
"Chen Guogong, do you think I am someone who would make fun of something like this?"
Now Hou Junji no longer dared to treat him lightly. It would be fine if Muchuan alone said so, but even Liang Guogong Fang Xuanling said so. It seemed that the Tang Dynasty might undergo a big change.
"Wait..." Hou Junji realized that something was wrong.
Why are Muchuan and Fang Xuanling so different from each other?
Did Hou Junji remember that Muchuan said that people from Goguryeo wanted to assassinate Li Shimin, but Fang Xuanling said that Goguryeo wanted to attack the border of the Tang Dynasty?
Hou Junji then raised his question and asked: "Which one of you is correct?"
At that moment, Muchuan and Fang Xuanling looked at each other, quite confused.
Immediately afterwards, Muchuan came to his senses: "Master Fang, there is something wrong with this matter! Goguryeo actually wants to assassinate His Majesty!"
"His Majesty has a large number of guards around him, how can he be assassinated so easily! In fact, Goguryeo is going to send a large number of troops to attack us!"
Fang Xuanling said that he had just inquired from the generals of the border army that Goguryeo had indeed taken some action recently, and it seemed that a group of vanguards had quietly lurked into the territory.
"no no!"
Muchuan waved his hands and said, at this moment he finally figured out the movements of Goguryeo.
The Goguryeo Kingdom should be playing the role of "cooperating with the inside and outside". There is a missionary station of the Goguryeo Kingdom in the country itself.
Outside, there was a vanguard army sneaking in from Goguryeo.
They cooperated internally and externally, planning to take advantage of today's "Royal Hunting Day" to launch a special attack in an attempt to capture the emperor!
The reason Muchuan was so sure was because he had already heard about Jin and Xuan Bin from Temujin Dali.
"So...this Kim and Hyun Bin are not ordinary literati, they are actually prime ministers!"
In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can clearly distinguish the weirdness of Kim and Hyun Bin. If he was just an ordinary lower-level official, would he be qualified to come to peace talks on behalf of Goguryeo?
Even Goguryeo's general Wangyue Yihu obeyed his words like this?
So it can be seen that Kim and Hyun Bin are definitely not simple!
Now after Muchuan's analysis, Fang Xuanling finally figured it out.
Fang Xuanling: "So His Majesty is in great danger now?"
Muchuan: "Exactly! We have to hurry up and save His Majesty!"
Just when a group of them were about to take action, a captain outside the palace gate came to report, saying that he was ordered by Chen Guogong to go to the messenger palace to look for Jin, Xuan Bin and others, and found that the building was empty and they had already
Gone!
After hearing the news, everyone's anxiety deepened. The disappearance of the people from Goguryeo meant that they had already taken action!
Time goes by, the sun is high in the afternoon, and the summer is scorching.
Twenty miles east of Chang'an City, the royal family's hunting ground was a large area surrounded by the Ministry of Rites of the Shangshu Province. All kinds of wild beasts were stocked in it, specially provided for the hunting and entertainment of the royal family.
The vegetation is thick and the summer breeze is cool. There is a group of people lurking in the dense forest. They are people from Goguryeo. The leaders are Jin and Xuan Bin!
In addition to Jin and Xuan Bin, there were nearly a hundred people around him. They were wearing white wind robes, with sun and moon headbands tied on their heads, and short-edged weapons on their waists.
As for their purpose, they were naturally targeting the Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was wandering in the open forest at this time, surrounded by a group of military generals, senior officials and heirs of the royal family.
Behind him were nearly a hundred soldiers.
The entire team was so majestic and powerful that as soon as they passed by, all the grass and branches on the ground were trampled and broken.
From a distance of two hundred meters, Jin, Hyun Bin and others were looking at each other with eager eyes, like a group of cheetahs surrounding a group of antelopes.
"Jin, when do we take action?"
Mochizuki Yihu asked.
"Wait a moment, now is not the time, we need to wait for another time."
Hearing what Jin and Xuan Bin said made Wang Yue Yihu feel impatient. They had been waiting for a cup of tea. A group of people were just waiting. If the Tang Dynasty soldiers found out, they would all be doomed!
You must know that this time Goguryeo came to assassinate Li Shimin, with a total of two hundred people.
Among them, there were fifty people in the envoy group and another one hundred and fifty people in the vanguard, who secretly sneaked from Goguryeo to join the Tang Dynasty.
With a size of two hundred people, it is very likely that they will be discovered by the people of the Tang Dynasty.
"Jin, we can't wait any longer! Let's go straight ahead. As long as we can kill the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, everything will be worth it!"
"You fool! Have you forgotten what the monarch said?
Everything in this operation is under my command, and I have the highest command authority! Just be patient!"
Jin Hexuan Bin spoke in a low voice. Although his voice was not loud, his tone revealed a domineering and majestic tone.
Although Kim and Hyun Bin look so weak, he is a "popular man" in the eyes of the Goguryeo monarch and plays an important role, especially his wisdom and strategy are admirable.
In the past several assassination operations, it was the command of Kim and Hyun Bin that successfully killed the monarch of the small country.
In addition to ensuring the death of the enemy's monarch, Jin and Hyun Bin's assassination operations also needed to ensure that all the soldiers of their Goguryeo country returned alive. Naturally, he would carefully deploy before each operation and only take action when everything was perfect.
As for what Kim and Hyun Bin are waiting for?
The moment I waited for Li Shimin to leave the team!
After lurking for a whole stick of incense, the Goguryeo team kept a distance from the Tang Dynasty team. At this time, the opportunity finally arrived!
Li Shimin rode on his horse, set up his bow and shot an arrow. He hit an elk with a precise shot! But it was a strong elk. It could still move after being hit by the arrow. It escaped even though it was injured.
When Li Shimin saw that the elk was about to run away, he naturally would not let it go just like that. Holding the reins in his hand, he quickly chased after it.
Li Shimin was very fast, and he went after his prey without telling anyone else, which caused him to briefly leave the team.
The soldiers behind him reacted, but there were so many people in the team and they were carrying a lot of heavy objects. Even if they wanted to follow Li Shimin, they couldn't follow him immediately.
