East Palace, in the main hall.
Ying Qi sat on the main seat angrily, with an angry look on his face. With full expectations, he wanted to enter the palace to supervise the country on behalf of the emperor, and then seize power step by step.
Unexpectedly, Lin Feng was stunned by Jianguo's proposal before he even said it. His entire family suffered heavy losses and could only leave the palace in despair.
Ying Qi's cold eyes swept across the officials in the palace, and he felt even more disappointed.
These people lack courage.
Faced with Lin Feng's cruelty, no one dared to argue with Lin Feng because they were all afraid.
Ying Qi was disappointed, and had no intention of talking to these people anymore. He looked around at everyone and ordered: "Wei Huaiying, Qin Ge, and Shi Danai stay, and the rest of them retreat."
"Here!"
Everyone left one after another.
In the main hall, only Ying Qi and others were left. As for Wei Huaiying, Qin Ge and Shi Danai who were left behind, they all knew that Ying Qi had contact with the Kunshan Sect and Dachantian of Jin State, and knew that the emperor's assassination was meddling with the East Palace. A kick.
Ying Qi said in a deep voice: "The three of you are my confidants and the people I can entrust with important responsibilities. Now that I have failed to force the palace, what should you do next?"
Qin Ge immediately said: "Prince, the matter has come to this, and the situation is no longer under our control. We believe that the top priority is to correct our attitude, and we cannot go any further."
"Although the prince had previously been in contact with the Jin clan, we only had one archer involved in the assassination this time. No one can prove that our East Palace took action."
"So my humble suggestion is to keep a low profile for now and wait until His Majesty recovers before mentioning the murder of Minister Kang and others."
"This matter is going to cause a big mess."
Qin Ge said: "It doesn't matter what the reason was for Lin Feng to take action, but he directly killed a minister of the Qin Dynasty. Such cruelty is not allowed and it is against the rules."
Qin Ge was in the East Palace, serving as the prince's steward and responsible for the guards of the East Palace. All the troops in the East Palace were under Qin Ge's control.
Ying Qi was a little unhappy after hearing this.
This arrangement is inappropriate.
Ying Qi said directly: "The situation is already critical. Now that we have taken action, if we want to ease it, there is no chance. Therefore, we cannot continue to tolerate it. Qin Ge, your method is inappropriate."
Shi Danai serves as the prince's family magistrate and is the general manager of the East Palace. He is in charge of the food, warehouse and warehousing of the East Palace. This position is similar to that of the Ministry of Revenue, and is in charge of the prince's money bag.
Shi Danai said: "I agree with the prince's words. We have already taken action, so it is not suitable to hold back anymore. But the imperial city is in the hands of Meng Chong, and he is in charge of the eight thousand imperial city forbidden troops. With the eight thousand forbidden troops in hand, the city is strong and completely It is impregnable and impossible to capture. If we want to take power, we must first capture Mengchong."
Wei Huaiying shook his head and said: "Meng Chong is a master of our Great Qin, a person at the pinnacle of the Grandmaster Realm. Who can defeat him? Furthermore, the Forbidden Army are all Meng Chong's confidants, so how to attack is almost impossible. In addition, there is no one at the moment. Available troops. The strength of the East Palace alone is far from enough."
Ying Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Is there no other way? Could it be that we have to let ourselves be slaughtered?"
Wei Huaiying, Qin Ge and Shi Danai all looked helpless.
The current situation is very unfavorable.
Although the prince was powerful in the court, all the prince's rights came from the emperor. If the emperor says a word, everything the prince has will be lost and he will be reduced to fish on the chopping board.
"Report!"
At this moment, another attendant hurriedly entered.
The attendant stood still and said, "Prince, Li Xu wants to see you."
"Please."
Ying Qi quickly ordered.
There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes. After all, Li Xu had been in charge of the Ministry of War and was the former Minister of War. Such a person is sophisticated, knows many secrets, and has many methods to help him solve his difficulties.
Wei Huaiying and others are just juniors in front of Li Xu.
Not long after, Li Xu entered.
Li Xu looked very anxious, and said with cupped hands: "I heard in prison that the prince led people into the court, but was killed by Lin Feng by surprise. He suffered heavy losses and was unable to supervise the country, right?"
Ying Qi sighed: "Li Shangshu, Lin Feng used Meng Chong to control the imperial army and control the imperial city unscrupulously. Kang Zheng, Jitai and Sima Ao stood up to accuse Lin Feng and were killed by him. At that time, everyone was killed and confused. I lost my courage. Immediately afterwards, King Yong also entered the palace to confront me, so I had no choice but to retreat."
Li Xu stroked the beard under his chin, thought for a while, and continued: "The matter has come to this, and it is meaningless to discuss the success or failure of the palace. At this point, has the prince ever thought that you have no way out?"
Ying Qi said: "I understand that I have discussed with everyone just now what to do? Once my father fully recovers and the Black Ice Platform conducts a thorough investigation, the East Palace will definitely be responsible. So we must break the boat, but unfortunately, there is no solution. method."
After a pause, Ying Qi said: "Li Shangshu, do you have any solution?"
Li Xu looked as usual and said: "Prince, I have two arrangements here to ensure that the prince will fight to the death and win."
Ying Qi asked: "Mr. Li's plan?"
Li Xu said: "First, Sima Fenghua, the chief general of the Black Dragon Army who controls the outside of the North City, as long as he obeys the prince's order, 30,000 Black Dragon Army will enter the city. Even if Meng Chong is in charge of the Forbidden Army, the 8,000 Forbidden Army will not be able to compare with the number of the Black Dragon Army. "
"Furthermore, when the time comes, the prince can go to the city gate and announce that the emperor is on his deathbed, but he is controlled by Lin Feng. Using the prince's words, he can further weaken the hearts of the Meng Chong imperial guards."
"Second, in order to ensure victory, we will arrange for master-level masters to sneak into the imperial city tonight and use thunderbolt tactics to see off His Majesty in the Yangxin Palace."
"Only if Your Majesty takes the first step, the Prince's Qing Jun side will not have any flaws. If the Emperor dies first, it proves that Lin Feng, Wang Tang and others killed Your Majesty, and the reason why they sealed off the imperial city is to cover up the news .”
"It is only natural for the prince to launch an army to attack the imperial city."
Li Xu looked calm. He had already planned it and said with a smile: "Prince, these are the two strategies at the moment, two strategies to advance. Tonight, we will implement the assassination plan and lead the army into the city tomorrow morning."
hiss! !
Ying Qi also took a breath when he heard this.
He was shocked by Li Xu's boldness.
After Ying Qi was shocked, he was happy inside because Li Xu's plan was indeed a feasible strategy.
Ying Qi thought for a while and frowned: "Li Shangshu, both strategies are difficult to handle. I have sent people to win over Sima Fenghua several times. From the beginning to the end, Sima Fenghua has not expressed his position and has never been loyal to me."
"In addition, the plan to assassinate the emperor has been implemented once. The three great masters of Kunshan Sect, Da Chantian and Li Chonglou of your Li family failed to assassinate him."
"Now in the palace, there are more people guarding me, and there are three wins. It is impossible to assassinate my father."
Ying Qi said: "Although the method is good, it is difficult to implement."
Li Xu chuckled and said: "Your Highness, why are you still hiding him? First, here at Sima Fenghua, I am the Minister of the Ministry of War. I have dealt with him before and have some friendship with him."
"In particular, I understand Sima Fenghua's nature. He is a filial son, extremely filial to his mother, and he dotes on his only son. To control Sima Fenghua, you only need to capture his mother and son, and I will step in to make Sima Fenghua obedient. .”
"Second, for the assassination at night, Xie Zhenyue and Ren Hongxiu can be contacted. Together with Li Chonglou of my Li family, there are already three great masters. In addition, according to what I told you, there is a swordsmanship master Ouyang Feibai in the East Palace."
"This person, who practiced martial arts in the early years, went crazy and became insane. He once killed innocent people indiscriminately, and also massacred imperial officials. He was wanted by Black Ice Platform, and the imperial court sent a master-level master to capture him."
"In the end, there was no whereabouts. But I know that Ouyang Feibai is hiding in the East Palace and is the prince's trump card. Ouyang Feibai is a master at the pinnacle of the master realm. Once he helps, the four great masters will definitely win."
"This is our current foundation."
Li Xu said: "As long as the world's great master does not come out, the peak of the master realm is already the limit. I believe that I will win."
Ying Qi's brows rose, a little surprised.
Ouyang Feibai's incident has never been publicized to the outside world. Unexpectedly, Li Xu knew so much about the situation in his East Palace.
As expected of the old fox Li Xu.
Ying Qi's mind changed and he said solemnly: "Just follow Li Shangshu's arrangement. Sima Fenghua is here and Li Gong arranges it. In addition, Ren Hongxiu and Xie Zhenyue are here to make further contact and we will take action tonight."
Li Xu cupped his hands and said: "Since the prince has promised, please give me a decree so that I can talk to Sima Fenghua and ensure that he obeys the prince."
Ying Qi immediately agreed and gave Li Xu a decree, and Li Xu left in a hurry.
In the main hall, only Ying Qi, Wei Huaiying and others were left.
Ying Qi said: "Under the current situation, we have no choice but to move. Li Xu's words are our next plan. Do you have any objections?"
Wei Huaiying said: "There is no objection to the humble position."
Qin Ge said: "I agree with my humble position."
Shi Dana said: "There is no way to retreat now. We can only follow Li Xu's instructions. The sword has been unsheathed and it is impossible to take it back."
Ying Qi nodded and said: "Now that you understand everything, let's go and prepare."
"Here!"
Wei Huaiying, Qin Ge and Shi Danai retreated one after another.
Ying Qi sat alone, with deep expectations in his eyes. He didn't have much anxiety because he had no choice. What Ying Qi wants to do now is to overthrow the person on the throne and become the emperor.
At the same time, kill Lin Feng again.
He wanted Lin Feng to pay the price, so that Lin Feng could not live but die.
…
In the palace, night fell, and candles were already lit in the Yangxin Hall.
The candlelight flickered, dispersing the darkness.
Ying Jiuxiao woke up in the evening and ate some gruel, but he was a little confused and fell asleep soon after. In order to treat Ying Jiuxiao, Lin Feng specially used a prescription for replenishing Qi and cultivating energy, and asked Wang Shun to boil the medicine himself. When Ying Jiuxiao woke up, Lin Feng made Ying Jiuxiao drink the medicine.
Now, Ying Jiuxiao lay down again, still sleeping.
Lin Feng sat aside and read a book.
The books he looked through were medical books, which he got directly from Wang Shun in order to pass the time.
Originally, Lin Feng said during the day that he was responsible for guarding the night, while Wang Shun kept an eye on the day. But at night, Wang Shun was still waiting by Ying Jiuxiao's side. Lin Feng persuaded Wang Shun, but Wang Shun insisted on keeping an eye on him, and Lin Feng was too lazy to take care of it.
Time was still passing by little by little. When Lin Feng was reading, suddenly, Wang Shun suddenly said: "Mr. Lin, it's not good. His Majesty's forehead is a little hot. Something is wrong."
Lin Feng also became nervous.
Ying Jiuxiao didn't have a fever during the day, so Lin Feng felt more at ease. After all, Ying Jiuxiao was in good health.
Unexpectedly, it came anyway.
In this era, fever is the most dangerous thing, because there are no special antipyretics and it is very troublesome to reduce fever.
Lin Feng made a careful diagnosis, but also frowned. After Ying Jiuxiao started to have a fever, his breathing began to become rapid, he felt groggy, and even murmured in his mouth.
Lin Feng knew that this was the most important stage. If he got through it, Ying Jiuxiao's condition would be completely under control and he could be nursed back to health slowly. If the fever is allowed to continue, the consequences will be disastrous.
Wang Shun was also a little panicked and asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you think we should do?"
Lin Feng thought for a while and ordered: "Bring West Wind Drunk and water."
Wang Shun immediately made arrangements, and not long after, the waiter brought a large jar of Xifengzui and water.
Lin Feng directly mixed it up and ordered: "Manager Wang, soak your handkerchief in the wine, and then wipe your Majesty's forehead, neck and armpits. You can also wipe your body a little."
Wang Shun immediately gave the order and asked the chamberlain to quickly serve and wipe the emperor.
When the attendant began to wipe, Wang Shuncai asked: "Mr. Lin, I know that you use cold water to cool down. But what is the reason for adding wine?"
Lin Feng explained: "We use wine to cool down because West Wind is drunk. It is different from the ordinary rice wine outside. It is purer and easier to evaporate and dissipate. When you rub it on His Majesty's body, the wine will take away the heat when it evaporates. That's basically it. "
In fact, alcohol is best.
The problem is, there is no alcohol in this era, that is, the relatively high concentration of West Wind is drunk.
Wang Shun was confused.
Volatile?
Take away heat?
Wang Shun didn't understand, but what Lin Feng said made sense, so Wang Shun believed him. Because Lin Feng is now in the same boat as the emperor, it is impossible for Lin Feng to harm the emperor.
This kind of wiping continued for half an hour, and then stopped for a moment to relax.
After a while, Ying Jiuxiao's body felt a little warm again.
However, it is not as hot as before.
Lin Feng felt relieved when he saw that the fever was under control and did not continue to spread, and asked him to continue wiping it. It lasted for about two quarters of an hour, and then stopped wiping it. Lin Feng waited for a while, observed and then diagnosed, and found that the fever had been controlled.
The emperor stopped talking and fell into a deep sleep.
The snoring is all there.
call! !
Lin Feng breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed. He was actually quite nervous, because in later generations, this was a very simple matter, but in this era, medical equipment was limited, so it was very troublesome.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Shun's nervous look and comforted him: "Manager Wang, take a rest. It's okay."
Wang Shun nodded, his expression soft.
He looked at Lin Feng with even more approval.
Lin Feng made great contributions. If Lin Feng hadn't come to rescue him this time, the emperor's condition would have been quite troublesome.
Wang Shun suddenly said: "Mr. Lin, if I remember correctly, the children of the Lin family in your Xia country all practice the most powerful Chiyang Kung Fu, right?"
Lin Feng nodded and replied: "Manager Wang Mingjian, the Lin family does practice Chiyang Kung Fu."
He was alive inside.
Could it be that Wang Shun is a great master? After all, during the day, he asked the emperor if he was safe in the palace. At that time, Wang Shun said he was sure that it would be fine, so it can be inferred that Wang Shun may be a master.
Wang Shun said: "The Lin family of the Xia Kingdom has had grandmasters throughout the ages. However, the Lin family has only reached the pinnacle of the master realm. It is simply impossible to become a great master."
Lin Feng quickly asked: "Why?"
Wang Shundao: "The realm of the Grand Master requires the harmony of yin and yang, both hardness and softness, which can be hard or soft. However, in the Grand Master realm, some people practice the most yang and most hard skills, and some people practice the most yin and coldness. effort."
"Practice this kind of martial arts to the extreme. It's really powerful. It's almost impossible to break through to a grand master. If you want to reach the highest level of martial arts in the future, you have to find a way to change."
Lin Feng said: "How to change it?"
At this moment, Lin Feng also became a little excited.
Having traveled through time, he naturally knew that the warriors of this era, the Grand Master, were at their peak. A great master has great power in every movement and movement, and can roam freely among thousands of armies.
If you rely on human power, it can kill a master at the master level. If you rely on manpower, it would be very difficult to kill the Grand Master, because you can't stop the Grand Master.
However, the Grand Master is not invincible.
As long as there is a grandmaster who delays the consumption and supplements it with a steady stream of manpower, it can indeed consume the great master.
Theoretically this is the case.
It’s not easy to actually do it.
Wang Shun said sternly: "The only way is to practice another feminine skill. But in history, there have been many people who practiced both, but no one has been able to break through. Because they have not yet reached the great master, the conflict between yin and yang, It's incompatible. Not only has it failed to improve, but it has caused a lot of internal friction. This is a direction, you can figure it out yourself."
After Lin Feng heard this, his heart was filled with joy. Although he also practiced the Chiyang Kung Fu, in fact, his Chiyang Kung Fu was transformed from the internal force of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra. The internal force of the Marrow Washing Sutra has no attributes.
When it comes to practicing feminine skills, there may be opportunities.
Lin Feng suppressed his thoughts. He looked at Wang Shun and asked tentatively: "Manager Wang, could it be that you have already entered the Grand Master realm?"
Wang Shun shook his head and said: "Grand master, how can it be so easy? There are only a few great masters in the world. Now, the old slave is only half a step, half a step to become a grand master. If you want to go further, it will be even more difficult. Disaster."
hiss! !
Lin Feng still took a breath.
Half-step master.
This thing is invincible as long as the great master doesn't come out. To put it bluntly, if the emperor encounters the previous assassination again, with Wang Shun around, he will kill as many as he comes.
There is already a huge gap between the Grandmaster and the Half-Step Grandmaster.
Lin Feng was looking forward to it. Although his master practiced martial arts, his attainments in martial arts were not very deep, especially since his parents died early and there was no one to teach him specifically. Now Lin Feng seized the opportunity and asked for advice carefully.
Wang Shun thought that Lin Feng was very good, and he did not hesitate to give advice. The two chatted and time passed by unconsciously.
"ah!"
Suddenly, a groan came out.
Ying Jiuxiao made a sound.
Lin Feng and Wang Shun turned around and saw Ying Jiuxiao opening her eyes. Ying Jiuxiao's face was very pale, but his eyes became clear, no longer muddy and hazy as before.
Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Your Majesty, how do you feel now?"
