The four brothers Zeng Yi lurked in Wan Huojing's bedroom and almost starved to death. The four of them originally expected that Wan Huojing would come back the next day, but they did not expect that it would not be until the morning of the third day that Wan Huojing returned to Wan Huojing.
In the past two days, the four of them had been lurking in Wanfu and did not dare to make too much noise. Moreover, in order to free up their backpacks to carry the treasures of the East Palace, all the food they carried had been thrown away, so that the four of them had no
A little food. If it weren't for some snacks in Wan Huojing's room, the four of them would probably be half starved to death when Wan Huojing comes back.
During this period, a servant came in for cleaning. Fortunately, Zeng Yi reacted in time and noticed that someone was coming in. He called the three bosses and immediately jumped onto the beam. The four of them crowded on the beam until the servant left.
Just came down.
On the morning of the third day, Wan Huojing came back tired. Such a big thing had happened. He, the Minister of War, was really busy. As soon as he entered the room, Wan Huojing was so frightened by Zeng Yi and the others that he almost had a heart attack. Fortunately,
The four of them were well prepared, and before Wan Huojing could call out, they took action to stop him.
"It's me, don't make any noise!" Wan Huojing allowed Wan Huojing to see his true face, and then he unlocked his acupuncture points.
"You! Why are you here?" Wan Huojing looked at Zeng Yi and the others with his eyes wide open.
"I have no choice, you are the only safe place. I can only come here to hide." Zeng Yi said calmly.
"You, do you know that things have turned upside down outside? If someone finds you here, I will be doomed!" Wan Huojing said helplessly.
"I know, I just knew something was going on outside, so I hid here with you!"
...
I learned from Wan Huojing that most of the assassins from the Four Kingdoms managed to escape the capital despite paying a high price. At that time, they ran under the city wall and were stopped by Guo Juxia and his men. Another battle broke out between the two sides. This time
The battle was very fierce, and the masters from the Four Kingdoms all fought with their lives. However, Guo Juxia and the Four Great Gods were not vegetarians. In addition to the ballistae on the city wall, in the end, only two of the top masters from the Four Kingdoms were injured.
The master failed to leave the capital.
These two masters, one was a man from the grassland and the other was a monk from Tubo. Because they had suffered some injuries before, when they ran away, they were shot back by the ballistae on the city wall. Guo Juxia originally wanted to capture them alive.
But the two of them also knew that if they were captured alive, they would not only die, but would also suffer inhuman torture. This was a great shame and humiliation for a super master. After the two of them knew that they could not leave, they had no intention of living.
The fighting power unleashed by two top-notch masters who were determined to die was quite terrifying. Both of them even used forbidden moves. Before dying, they almost got cold-blooded, one of the four great hunters. If it weren't for Guo Juxia's quick reaction,
He helped Lengxue in time. Now Lengxue was not as simple as being seriously injured.
At the same time, Zeng Yi and the others also learned that the unlucky master who had been tricked by them was also dead. He was besieged to death by Zhuge Shenhou and the guards of the East Palace. Counting this old man, the losses of the Four Kingdoms this time were
He killed three top-notch masters, and it was a heavy loss for them.
"How could it be! They should have been able to retreat in time?" Zeng Yi was shocked when he heard that the super masters who pretended to attack the palace also lost two people, "Could it be that there are secret super masters in the imperial court who are taking action!"
Later, Zeng Yi learned that those masters did not follow the original plan at all, but went deep into the palace and wanted to kill the emperor as well. This caused them to miss the best opportunity to escape. "Haha, you deserve it, what the hell.
I thought the emperor was just for food."
"How about the prince?" The four of them actually didn't care about the loss of the four countries at all. They were still more concerned about the prince's condition. Although the fourth child said that it was impossible for anyone else to detoxify the seven insects and seven flowers ointment except him, the maker.
But having not seen the prince die with his own eyes, Zeng Yi was still worried.
"Prince? Currently, Eunuch Cao, Shenhou Zhuge and the imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital are trying to figure out a solution." Wan Huojing looked at Zeng Yi and said.
"What! The prince is not dead!" When Zeng Yi and the other four heard this, they all stood up!
"How is it possible? I have Seven Insects and Seven Flowers Ointment!" Based on the prince's weak physique, according to the fourth child's inference, there is no way he could delay it until the next day, but now it is already the third day, and he is still alive!
Zeng Yi was a little panicked. After so much effort, if he failed to assassinate the prince, all the plans would be in vain! However, seeing that Wan Huo Jing was calm, Zeng Yi hurriedly said: "What is going on?
?”
"I'm unconscious. According to Eunuch Cao and Shenhou Zhuge, if we can't find the person who made the poison, we won't be able to delay today!" Only then did Zeng Yi know that the prince was actually almost done that day, but who would let the court's top masters
How many, a group of top-notch masters took turns to work for the prince's luck, and coupled with the imperial court's inventory of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the prince's life was lost.
"Let me just say, no one can solve this Seven Insects and Seven Flowers Ointment except me!" After hearing Wan Huojing's words, all four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Wan Huojing looked at Zeng Yi and said, "Your target is actually the prince, right?"
Zeng Yi smiled slightly and said: "Yes, the target was the prince from the beginning. The assassins who went to assassinate the emperor were just trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain and lure away the top masters in the capital!"
Wan Huojing is a smart man. Through these things, he has already deduced some of Zeng Yi's plans. Zeng Yi also deduced some opportunities when he saw Wan Huojing, so he simply told him the specific plan. After all, he
The next plan still requires him to take action.
"You have been violently resisting the emperor, but the chance of helping the little princess get the throne is too slim. Since I am in charge of the pro-military captain's mansion, I naturally have to adjust my plan..." Zeng Yi said completely
The plan, and even the matter of luring the four countries into the war, was told to Wan Huojing.
After Wan Huojing heard this, everyone was shocked. He didn't expect that Zeng Yi could actually do this. Even after the prince's death, Zeng Yi's plan had a very high chance of success.
"Why, why didn't you just assassinate the emperor at the same time? If you had told me your plan earlier, I would have had a chance to get close to the emperor and die with him!" Wan Huojing is really loyal to King Xing. He actually has the idea and
The emperor died together.
"The emperor cannot die now. If he and the prince die together, the court will inevitably be in chaos. The four countries will definitely seize the opportunity to invade. I don't want the princess to take over a broken empire!"
