Lin Feng lifted the carriage door curtain and looked forward.
I saw people blocking the way on the street. All of them were dressed in black and even had their faces covered, as if no one could judge their origin and identity.
Gao Xiaoyu was quite nervous and warned: "Master, please be careful, there are too many people. Moreover, each one's martial arts is not simple depending on the situation. Master's golden body cannot be harmed."
Lin Feng smiled and said: "Relax."
"kill!"
At this moment, a grandmaster blocking the road ahead shouted an order.
All the men in black rushed out quickly.
The grandmaster at the front was already striding forward with his weapon in hand.
Yingwu came out of the darkness and stood in front of the carriage. Lin Feng and Gao Xiaoyu also got out of the carriage, each preparing to take action.
When the two master-level experts came up, Yingwu directly blocked one, and Lin Feng also directly dragged one down. Gao Xiaoyu could also protect himself from the surrounding attacks. Although this group of people blocking the road were large in number, they actually posed little threat to Lin Feng.
The two sides fought for only a short time before they heard the sound of rapid footsteps.
People from the Xie family came from behind.
More than a hundred people came.
In a short period of time, more than a hundred Xie family warriors surrounded the place where the fight was taking place.
The Xie family's warriors blocked the road and quickly took action, immediately forming a crushing situation. Lin Feng was also resisting the Grand Master's attack. At this time, a burly old man with a chin and a tiger's beard stepped in to help Lin Feng block a Grand Master. The opponent even used his sword quickly and domineeringly. Each sword was faster than the other, and each sword was more domineering than the other. .
In a short period of time, he crushed the opponent.
Lin Feng came out of the battlefield. He glanced around and saw the dark crowd in the Xie family. He couldn't help but admire in his heart.
Xie Chong is really as steady as an old dog.
If you don't take action, it will be fine. If you do, more than a hundred people will be dispatched. Under the siege of so many people, not a single one of the more than ten warriors from the Danyang Palace could even think of escaping.
The screams continued, and one by one was killed one by one. The two masters of Danyang Palace were also completely suppressed and put in danger.
From this aspect of analysis, we can also judge the strength of the Xie family. As the first aristocratic family in the Jin Kingdom, the Xie family's strength is well deserved. Not only did Xie Chong have a strong influence in the officialdom, but the Xie family's own military background was also strong.
In addition, the Xie family also has huge influence in Shilin. After all, Xie Wen was a great scholar in the Jin Dynasty, but Xie Wen was not in Jinling.
The Xie family's background is unrivaled in tyranny.
Yingwu also left the battlefield. He stood next to Lin Feng, with sharp eyes, and said: "Sir, the Xie family's heritage is really extraordinary. The Xie family has sent two masters, both of whom are masters at the peak level. These people , completely suppressed the people of Danyang Palace."
Lin Feng smiled softly and said: "Being the first aristocratic family in the Jin Kingdom is certainly not weak."
In a short time, the two masters of Danyang Palace were killed, and the remaining twelve first-class master warriors were killed, leaving only three people. The reason why the three people are alive is because they faced the massacre and directly shouted that they were ordered by Sima Daoheng and eagerly surrendered to save their lives.
In fact, this is a member of the Xie family.
Shouting loudly is to confirm Sima Daoheng's crime and to save his own life.
The Grandmaster Realm expert led by the Xie family came up. He held up his hands and said, "I, Li Lin Mansion, are here to help at the order of the head of the family. Mr. Lin is frightened. The matter has been resolved. I will take my leave."
Lin Feng said: "Thank you very much."
Li Linfu waved his hand and led the people away.
The Xie family members present quickly disappeared.
Lin Feng boarded the carriage and ordered: "Gao Xiaoyu, go to the Imperial City. Xie Chong's mission here has ended, it's my turn next."
"Here!"
Gao Xiaoyu got on the carriage.
Yingwu also sat next to the carriage.
Suddenly, Ying Wu said: "Mr. Lin, I know who Li Linfu is. This man was once known as the Ten Miles Sword God and a master of swordsmanship. At that time, Li Linfu just entered the master realm for the first time. I didn't expect that he would appear again now. He is at the peak level of a grandmaster, and his strength is also tyrannical.”
Lin Feng heard the name of Li Linfu and asked with a smile: "Why is he called the Ten-mile Sword God?"
Ying Wu explained: "The reason why Li Linfu is called the Ten-mile Sword God is because he encountered a woman being raped in Wuxian County in the past. At that time, Sima Nanfeng, a descendant of the royal family, was visiting Wuxian County and saw a The woman then followed her to her residence, entered her house and raped her."
"The most hateful thing is that after Sima Nanfeng committed the crime, he also revealed his identity in an arrogant and domineering manner, saying that he would take over anyone who dared to fight against injustice to see who could kill him. After meeting Li Lin Mansion, because of Sima Nanfeng Already nearly ten miles away."
"Li Linfu was so angry that he ran ten miles in a row, caught up with Sima Nanfeng, and killed him."
"Sima Nanfeng's branch belongs to the lineage of King Yongning of Jin State, and is also quite influential in Jin State. After the incident broke out, the government wanted Li Lin Mansion, and he disappeared without a trace. I didn't expect him to appear here now."
Yingwu said: "The matter of Li Lin's Mansion was still a big deal in Jin State. The people in Heibingtai knew about it and even deliberately publicized it in order to stir up public opinion, so I know about Li Lin's Mansion."
Lin Feng was a little surprised when he heard this.
Li Linfu is a good person.
Dare to complain.
Lin Feng nodded. He sat in the carriage, thinking about the Xie family and meeting the emperor.
How to persuade the emperor?
The carriage drove all the way outside the imperial city. Lin Feng got out of the carriage, but his eyes became clear. He had already thought of a way.
Lin Feng walked to the gate of the imperial city and explained his purpose to the guarding soldiers. The soldiers quickly went to report. After a short time, the soldiers came back and took Lin Feng in alone.
Lin Feng entered the hall with a solemn expression.
He knew what was coming next, which was quite crucial. When it comes to Sima Daoheng, this person must be taken down, otherwise what happened today, I am afraid that Sima Daoheng will be angry, even if he mainly takes revenge on Xie Chong, he will not let him go, Lin Feng.
In fact, Sima Daoheng may even try to cause trouble at all costs, affecting the affairs of Jin and Great Qin.
Sima Daoheng must be captured.
After Lin Feng stood still, he cupped his hands and said, "Lin Feng, pay homage to Your Majesty."
Sima Chong said: "You came to the palace today because King Danyang arranged for someone to assassinate you?"
Lin Feng was shocked.
The emperor knew.
Lin Feng cheered up and said seriously: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, today I came to the palace to see you, and it is true that I sent someone to assassinate King Danyang. In order to kill me, King Danyang sent two masters to take action. If they had not been close to the Xie family, the Xie family would have been there in time. Rush for help, I'm afraid I've become a dead soul under the sword."
Sima said calmly: "Do you know that if I win Sima Daoheng, I will support another Zongzheng again. But due to the influence and power of the new Zongzheng, it is impossible to compete with Xie Chong. In this situation , it means that Xie Chong’s family is dominant, which is not conducive to the checks and balances in the court.”
Lin Feng's expression turned serious.
The emperor did not beat around the bush, but went straight to the point, which was even more difficult.
To convince the emperor, there must be full benefits.
Without benefits, the emperor would not agree.
When Lin Feng came, he had an idea in mind, so he calmly said slowly: "Your Majesty, it seems that Xie Chong is the only one in the court, but in fact, it is not the case. Today's clan power is generally In other words, I am not being dispatched by His Majesty, but following Sima Daoheng’s arrangements.”
"This is uncontrollable."
"Your Majesty supported a person to come up. Although the new Zong Zheng does not have enough prestige and influence, he completely obeyed His Majesty's arrangements. Your Majesty wanted to check and balance Xie Chong, but he forgot that the strength of both sides is not weak."
"This is no longer a check and balance, your Majesty has raised two big fish, both of which can affect your Majesty."
"If His Majesty does not rely on Xie Chong's power to kill Sima Daoheng now, Sima Daoheng will become more and more arrogant in the future, which will affect the court situation. As for Xie Chong, although he has great influence, after all, Xie Chong It is easier to deal with it if you are a minister and abide by the law."
Lin Feng talked eloquently.
He didn't have any panic because he was fully prepared and he was sure to persuade Sima Chong to agree.
Sima Chong shook his head and said: "I understand your reasons, but I can't believe in vain guarantees, nor can I believe in human nature. Xie Chong has been in power for many years, and his influence is too great. Someone must check and balance it."
Sima Daoheng and Xie Chong were constraining each other, and it was even impossible for Sima Daoheng to let Xie Chong suppress him.
There will definitely be a fight between the two sides.
That's right, many things don't require the emperor's intervention, Sima Daoheng will naturally take action. However, if someone else comes up, the newcomer may not dare to confront Xie Chong directly.
This is the biggest concern.
Lin Feng listened to the emperor's words and secretly thought that the emperor was not a fuel-efficient lamp either.
Sima Chong and Xie Chong are both old foxes.
Lin Feng's eyes gradually sharpened, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, what if Xie Chong also follows?"
"What's the meaning?"
Sima Chong looked stern.
His body even leaned forward slightly, and his breathing was a little quick. As an emperor, he knew Xie Chong's abilities well. The problem is that Xie Chong has too much influence in the court. Xie Chong's presence in the court for one day would affect Sima Chong.
This is not based on Xie Chong's will.
If Xie Chong is here, it will have an impact.
This is Xie Chong's prestige.
Lin Feng smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Xie Chong overthrew Sima Daoheng. This is the first step. The second step is that Xie Xuan returned from Da Qin and promoted the alliance between Da Qin and Jin. He also discovered Sima Daoheng's crimes and was rewarded with merit. He was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Thirdly, Xie Chong became an official in old age, so he stepped down to make way for Xie Xuan."
Lin Feng secretly said to Xie Chong, "I'm sorry."
This is Lin Feng’s consideration on the road.
This is the only way and the best way to persuade the emperor to agree. After Xie Chong retires, the Jin Dynasty's court will undergo further adjustments. After all, once the emperor and his courtiers are adjusted, there will be new monarchs and ministers to adjust to.
The focus of the Jin Dynasty shifted to the court, so the Qin Dynasty was even more stable.
Da Qin can develop steadily.
Don't worry about the threat from Jin.
This is Lin Feng's consideration.
Especially here with Xie Chong, Lin Feng and Xie Chong were originally an exchange of interests. If Xie Chong was a person who wielded power, Xie Chong would not directly abolish Xie Jun. Xie Chong cares about his posthumous affairs, his own reputation, even the future of the Xie family, and the situation in Jin.
Such an old fox, because he cares too much, pushes Xie Xuan up, and Xie Chong may agree.
Sima Chong looked at Lin Feng with a surprised expression.
He said seriously: "Lin Feng, how did you come up with this strategy?"
Lin Feng said: "It's not difficult."
Sima Chong said: "But are you sure Xie Chong will agree?"
Lin Feng smiled and said: "How can you know if you don't give it a try? What's more, Xie Chong is different from ordinary powerful officials. He cares about many things, including the Jin Kingdom, his reputation, his family, and his reputation. So, there is a certain chance.”
Sima Chong looked at Lin Feng and praised: "You are indeed good, Lin Feng. Are you willing to stay in the Jin Kingdom? What I mean is that when you complete the mission of Da Qin and you come to the Jin Kingdom, I will give you a platform to let you Show your ambition.”
Lin Feng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty respects you, and Lin Feng understands it. When I was in the most critical situation, Great Qin never let me down. Even in the face of the Xia Emperor's aggression, Great Qin blocked everything. I cannot betray Great Qin."
"well……"
Sima Chong sighed.
He felt a little sorry.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng was beaten first by Ying Jiuxiao, and he was one step late. Fortunately, he still has a daughter, and with Xu Liuli's influence, Lin Feng may not always stay in Daqin. He has a chance.
Sima Chong said seriously: "Lin Feng, on my behalf, go see Xie Chong. As long as he agrees to retreat, I will allow him to capture Sima Daoheng. Everything depends on Xie Chong's decision. And if he retreats, I will Give him enough credit."
"Your Majesty is holy."
Lin Feng bowed and answered.
With the emperor's answer, things will not be difficult.
The key lies in Xie Chong.
Lin Feng is somewhat certain.
Lin Feng cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I will leave the palace immediately and visit Xie's house again."
Sima Chong said: "Thank you for your hard work."
"I'll take my leave,"
Lin Feng bowed again, turned around and left.
When he walked out of the hall, he suddenly felt that Sima Chong, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, was also very clever in his methods, and it was still water running deep, so there was no obvious method. However, when Lin Feng was assassinated, Sima Chong had already thought about his next move.
The emperor's intention was to overthrow Sima Daoheng and make Xie Chong retreat as well. To overthrow Sima Daoheng, Xie Chong's efforts alone would be impossible, and the emperor's cooperation was necessary.
Only with the emperor's consent can everything be certain.
For the emperor, Xie Chong was also a big threat, so the emperor hoped that Xie Chong would also retreat.
The emperor waited for Lin Feng to reveal this condition.
Lin Feng smiled softly, whether it was the emperor or Xie Chong, he didn't care how the Jin Dynasty's court fought. All he cares about is Da Qin's interests and whether he can complete his mission.
