The imperial capital of Xia Kingdom, Anyi.
In the imperial city.
In a large hall, Emperor Li Chongfu was meditating. He was wearing a Bagua Taoist robe made of fine Shu brocade, a purple lotus crown on his head, holding a jade Ruyi in his hand, closing his eyes and muttering something in his mouth.
This is the daily life of Li Chongfu.
Most of the time, Li Chongfu was practicing Taoism and taking elixirs at the same time, hoping to reach the fairyland.
When Li Chongfu was practicing Taoism, an old eunuch came to Li Chongfu and stood bowed.
The person coming is Zhao Yuan.
He is the general manager of the Xia Kingdom, and he also controls the Chijia Cavalry. He is the most trusted person of the emperor.
Zhao Yuan stood aside and waited quietly. After a short time, Li Chongfu opened his eyes and let out a long breath. His complexion was not very good, especially the gray hair on his temples was getting more and more. Because I took too many pills, I got age spots on my face early on.
The whole person is getting thinner and thinner.
However, Li Chongfu did not take his situation to heart and was still taking pills so that he could become a flying immortal in the future.
Li Chongfu looked at Zhao Yuan and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Yuan said seriously: "Reporting to your majesty, the red armor cavalry of Qi State just sent back the news. Qi State has abandoned its alliance and will no longer send troops to attack Qin. Even Qi State, Qin State and Jin State have formed an alliance."
"Asshole!"
Li Chongfu's eyes widened with anger on his face.
He stood up suddenly, but because he had been sitting for a long time, his head was dizzy when he stood up, his body shook, and he was about to fall down.
Zhao Yuan immediately helped Li Chongfu so that he did not fall.
Even so, Li Chongfu stood still for a long time before his eyes completely regained their clarity.
Li Chongfu said angrily: "Qi State, a small country, dares to betray me and the alliance with Xia State. I am really tired of living. In these years, I have given Qi State various preferential treatment. Unexpectedly, I have given Qi State all kinds of preferential treatment." But they raised a white-eyed wolf, and they actually disobeyed my orders."
"The same goes for Jin State."
"Inverted!"
"These people are really rebelling."
"Especially Lin Feng, this rebellious official and traitor. He is from Xia, but he betrayed Xia and defected to Qin. As an envoy of Qin, he went to Jin and Qi, causing Jin and Qi to betray one after another. All of this... It was caused by Lin Feng."
"I regret it!"
"If I had known this, when Lin Feng was in Anyi, he should have ordered Lin Feng to be killed to avoid future troubles, instead of being soft-hearted and just abolishing his martial arts and being exiled."
"Lin Feng deserves to die."
Li Chongfu roared almost hysterically.
Previously, when the news came that the Jin State had betrayed the Xia State, Li Chongfu became furious and furious. Jin State assisted Xia State, Qi State and Yan State also sent troops, and the four countries sent troops to attack Da Qin. In Li Chongfu's view, this was a situation as stable as Mount Tai.
But in the blink of an eye, Jin and Da Qin formed an alliance, and Jin became Xia's enemy, and might even stab Xia in the back. This means that Xia State cannot go all out and must be prepared for Jin State's sneak attacks at any time.
Even so, Li Chongfu can still go to war with Da Qin. After all, there are still three kingdoms, and their strength is still strong. There is no problem in attacking Da Qin. But Qi's sudden betrayal meant that only Xia and Yan were left.
The Xia State itself may face sneak attacks from the Jin and Qi States. Can the Xia State still attack Qin?
It’s no longer possible.
Da Qin might even attack Xia State in turn.
After all, Da Qin was allied with Jin and Qi, and the strength of the three kingdoms far exceeded Xia's, enough to pose a threat to Xia.
Li Chongfu was so angry that his breathing became rapid and he coughed continuously. After a while, Li Chongfu's breathing subsided, but there was a flush on his old face with dots of age spots.
Because he was so angry, Li Chongfu's mind went blank for a moment.
Zhao Yuan knew very well the character of Li Chongfu. Knowing that Li Chongfu was angry, he did not speak for the time being and just waited quietly.
After a while, Li Chongfu recovered slightly.
Li Chongfu said in a deep voice: "Lin Feng completed his mission in Qi State. For his own safety, he must return along the original route to Qi State, first to Jin State, and then back to Daqin from Jin State. Zhao Yuan, you mobilize the men of the Red Armor Cavalry and give me all your strength to rob and kill Lin Feng, and be sure to kill him within the borders of Jin."
Zhao Yuan said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Lin Feng's whereabouts have changed a little. This time, he is most likely not returning along the Jin Kingdom."
Li Chongfu asked: "Could it be that he came to Xia Kingdom?"
"Most likely."
Zhao Yuan nodded and said: "According to the news from Chijiaqi, when Lin Feng left Linzi, he first went to Jixia Academy to say goodbye to Xunzi, and then left Jixia Academy and headed south in the blink of an eye, as if he was going What the Jin Kingdom looks like.”
"Soon after, Lin Feng's whereabouts disappeared. He couldn't be found at all. There was no trace of him."
"With Lin Feng's nature, it is impossible for him not to take revenge. Therefore, Lin Feng will definitely come to Anyi, the imperial capital of Xia Kingdom. After all, there are many of his enemies here in Xia Kingdom. Therefore, the old slave judged that Lin Feng is very likely to come To the Xia Kingdom."
Zhao Yuan said: "In fact, Lin Feng has entered the territory of Xia Kingdom and may be close to Anyi. However, there is no news about Lin Feng yet."
Li Chongfu narrowed his eyes and said: "If Lin Feng comes to Anyi, it is just the right time to kill people. Along the way from Qi to Anyi, since Lin Feng has come, he may have left clues. Then mobilize the Red Armor Cavalry to closely inquire about Lin Feng."
Having said this, Li Chongfu was a little tired. He took a breath and said, "As soon as you discover Lin Feng's whereabouts, follow them immediately. Once you find Lin Feng, I will execute him on the spot."
"Old slave obeys the order."
Zhao Yuan answered immediately.
Li Chongfu's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice for a moment: "This time the four countries attacked Da Qin, and now only Yan is left. It is almost impossible for Xia to go to war with Da Qin. However, they can block Jin first. The news about Qi and Qi encouraged Yan to take action. As long as Yan takes the lead in making a breakthrough, we can ignore Qi and Jin and directly attack Qin and break Qin's defenses."
Zhao Yuandao: "Your Majesty is wise."
"Report!"
At this moment, a chamberlain came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Zhang Jianzhi, the Minister of War, would like to see you."
Now Zhang Jianzhi, the Minister of War of the Xia Kingdom, was the latest to be promoted.
In the past, he was Yan Wuji's confidant. After Yan Wuji came to power, he naturally moved his confidants to the top. Now, Zhang Jianzhi has become the Minister of the Ministry of War and has a great say in the court. In particular, the official minister of Xia State did not take care of things at all, and Yan Wuji had great power in the court.
The most important thing is that Yan Wuji has the emperor's trust and can make money for the emperor.
Therefore, Yan Wuji's status is unshakable.
Li Chongfu ordered: "Pass it!"
The chamberlain went to deliver the message, and not long after, Zhang Jianzhi entered. He was over forty years old, a little fatter, with three short strands of beard under his chin, and small eyes, which gave the impression that he had a sly eyebrow.
Under normal circumstances in the Xia Kingdom, the Minister of War was transferred to the post of Minister of War after a general in the army stood out. Because he is familiar with the situation in the army, he is very stable as Minister of the Ministry of War, and will not be unable to give orders to the Ministry of War.
Zhang Jianzhi is different. He rose to power through flattery. He doesn't have much ability and has never really experienced any major battles.
There was a hint of panic on Zhang Jianzhi's face, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty, we just received news from the western border. The army led by Xu Gaoyang was attacked by the Qin army while stationed at the border."
"The Great Qin Hussars General Wang Lie led his troops to advance and fought with General Xu Gaoyang. General Xu Gaoyang's troops stationed on the front line were defeated and could only retreat across the board. Now, retreat to the important towns on the western border and adopt a defensive strategy .”
brush!
Li Chongfu's expression changed drastically.
He looked angry.
It was previously agreed that the four countries would attack Da Qin, and Yan Wuji personally recommended Xu Gaoyang to take command on the front line.
Unexpectedly, he failed.
Waste!
Li Chongfu's anger rose, and he felt as if he had been humiliated, and even felt his face burning.
The dignified Xia Kingdom was actually defeated.
Li Chongfu's breathing was heavy and heavy. He said in a deep voice: "What are the decisions of the military department on the Western Front battlefield where Xu Gaoyang is located?"
Zhang Jianzhi said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Ministry of War synthesized the information reported by General Xu Gaoyang and judged that this battle failed because Wang Lie suddenly mobilized his troops for a surprise attack, which made General Xu Gaoyang unable to respond. Now Xu Gaoyang is doing his best. With the adjustments I have made in the past, there is no problem in blocking Wang Lie."
Li Chongfu's cheeks twitched.
No problem keeping it.
This means that attacking Da Qin is temporarily impossible. Even under this premise, even if the Yan State makes a breakthrough, the Xia State may not be able to send troops.
Li Chongfu's mind turned and he ordered: "Send the order to Xu Gaoyang and ask him to defend with all his strength. If he can't defend, come and see us."
"I obey the decree."
Zhang Jianzhi answered directly.
Li Chongfu waved his hand, and Zhang Jianzhi withdrew.
Li Chongfu turned to look at Zhao Yuan and said: "Now that the Qin State has taken the initiative, we cannot fight back. The Red Armored Cavalry under your command must succeed if they want to capture Lin Feng. Killing Lin Feng will definitely make the Emperor of Qin mourn." .”
"Old slave, I obey."
Zhao Yuan answered again.
There was expectation in Li Chongfu's eyes. When he expected to capture Lin Feng, he wanted to see Lin Feng's body.
Li Chongfu will not give up until Lin Feng is killed.
Because Lin Feng suffered too many failures.
On the other side, Zhang Jiazhi left the main hall and went straight to the duty room of the Household Department in the imperial city, where he saw Yan Wuji who was handling government affairs.
Zhang Jianzhi quickly stepped forward with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Shang Shu Yan."
Yan Wuji said: "Zhang Shangshu, sit down."
Zhang Jianzhi sat down and said seriously: "Shang Shu, General Xu Gaoyang on the Western Front was defeated by Wang Lie of the Qin Dynasty. He is now leading the army to guard. Your Majesty has asked me to send an order for General Xu Gaoyang to defend with all his strength. He cannot be defeated again. .”
After hearing this, Yan Wuji said: "Xu Gaoyang lost, I am really helpless. However, if you lose, you will lose, don't worry about it. I will send a special letter to Xu Gaoyang about Zhang Shangshu's news, asking him to be more vigilant and know what to do next." The importance of coming down and defending.”
Zhang Jian's way: "That's good."
After a pause, Zhang Jianzhi continued: "There is one more thing about Lin Feng. Minister Yan, the Ministry of War itself received the news that Lin Feng was found in Qi State, which promoted the alliance between Qi State, Da Qin and Jin State, making Qi State no longer supports Da Qin."
"Now that Jin and Qi have betrayed one after another, it is no longer possible for us, Xia, to unite with other countries to destroy the Qin Dynasty. Of course, this matter has nothing to do with the two of us, and I don't take it seriously."
"The most important thing now is that spies from the Ministry of War discovered that Lin Feng disappeared in Linzi, Qi State."
"It stands to reason that if Lin Feng returned to Da Qin through the Jin Kingdom, he would definitely not be like this and hide his whereabouts. The problem is that he is most likely coming to Xia Kingdom for revenge. "
"People in our family have a deep hatred for Lin Feng. Even when Lin Feng's father died, we took action. The Lin family's extermination was also ordered by you and handled by you in a humble position. We only contributed to the flames and convicted the Lin family."
"It can be said that the destruction of Lin Feng's family was caused by us. Under this premise, Lin Feng will definitely take revenge on us. What do you think we should do and how to solve this matter?"
There was a hint of anxiety and worry in Zhang Jianzhi's words.
Lin Feng is different.
In the past, Lin Feng, although he showed his sharp edge, was not very murderous. Lin Feng now has great killing intent. With Lin Feng's hatred towards them, Lin Feng will definitely come to take revenge.
This is Zhang Jianzhi's worry.
There was a hint of coldness in Yan Wuji's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Shangshu, what are you worried about? You are the imperial minister, and you are followed by guards. In fact, your house is heavily guarded, and Lin Feng cannot retaliate."
After a pause, Yan Wuji said: "To be honest, my son Yan Changge died in Lin Feng's hands. I have long wanted to kill Lin Feng and then do it quickly. Therefore, I hope Lin Feng comes so that I can have a chance to kill Lin Feng." When he comes, I can take revenge. So, I wait for him to come."
"well……"
Zhang Jianzhi said: "Everyone is willing to kill Lin Feng to avoid future troubles. The problem is that this matter is difficult and difficult to handle."
Yan Wuji said: "Don't worry, just watch."
Upon seeing this, Zhang Jianzhi said nothing more and left directly to busy with his own government affairs.
Yan Wuji closed his eyes again to rest, thinking that if Lin Feng came to Anyi, he would definitely come to his house to kill him.
This matter must be arranged immediately.
Yan Wuji thought for a while, made a decision in his heart, and suddenly said: "Li Gan!"
"exist!"
Li Gan stepped forward immediately.
Li Gan is Yan Wuji's personal follower. He is over forty years old and came from the army. Although he is not a master, he is also an innate master and is very brave and courageous.
Yan Wuji ordered: "Go to Huxiao Mountain outside the city and inform Murong Shanhai to come to the city and take charge of the Yan family. Now that Lin Feng is here, it is very likely that he will take action against me. So Murong Shanhai is needed to take charge. Even if Lin Feng is here, he will take charge. When Feng comes, if Murong Shanhai takes action, Lin Feng will definitely die."
Li Gan bowed and said: "I humbly obey my orders."
When Li Gan left the household duty room and headed out of the city to Huxiao Mountain near Shili Road to the southwest, someone had already arrived at the foot of Huxiao Mountain.
The leader was a young man, dressed in black. He stood at the foot of Huxiao Mountain, looking at the pleasant scenery of Huxiao Mountain, with a cold expression on his face and a strong murderous intent in his eyes.
The young man was Lin Feng.
After he left Qi, he hid his whereabouts and hurried on his way. In a short period of time, Lin Feng, Ying Wu and Gao Xiaoyu arrived in Anyi. They did not enter the city directly, but went to Huxiao Mountain.
Murong Shanhai, who lives in Huxiao Mountain, is worshiped by Yan Wuji and is also the murderer who destroyed the Lin family.
In fact, Yan Changge was also a disciple of Murong Shanhai.
When Lin Feng was disabled in martial arts by Yan Changge, it was because Murong Shanhai was in charge. When Lin Feng's martial arts was abolished, the two generals of the Lin family, Yang Shu and Zhang Lu, were furious, but were killed by Murong Shanhai in front of Lin Feng.
Many of the Lin family's martial arts skills and many collections of books were also taken away by Murong Shanhai.
These are sworn enemies.
When Lin Feng returned to Anyi, he first eliminated Murong Shanhai and killed one of Yan Wuji's arms to announce Lin Feng's return. He wanted Murong Shanhai's death to become a terrifying nightmare for Yan Wuji and others, making these enemies unable to sleep even after tossing and turning.
Lin Feng came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "Win Wu, Gao Xiaoyu, let's climb the mountain."
"clear!"
Yingwu and Gao Xiaoyu nodded in reply.
"Walk!"
Lin Feng gave the order directly.
He led people directly to the mountain of Huxiao Mountain. The three of them moved very fast and arrived outside Murong Shanhai's residence halfway up the mountain in a blink of an eye.
This house is magnificent.
Directly above the gate, three characters "Murong Family" hang. After Lin Feng saw it, a cold look flashed across his eyes. He ignored the concierge at the door, put strength under his feet, jumped up, and immediately unsheathed the Spring Thunder Sword in his hand.
Clang! !
The Spring Thunder Sword struck the plaque diagonally.
Click!
The Murong family plaque had a diagonal line drawn from the upper left corner to the lower right corner, and the plaque fell down.
Bang!
The plaque broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.
Lin Fengren landed and the Spring Thunder Sword was sheathed with a clang. He looked at the concierge at the door, murderous intent emerging. The concierge shivered with fright, turned around and ran into the house like flying, shouting: "It's not good, someone came to provoke and broke the plaque."
The sound reached the house, but Lin Feng did not make any move for the time being. He did not enter the house, but waited quietly outside the house.
He waited for Murong Shanhai to come out and die.
