"A sneeze! A sneeze! A sneeze!"
Shen Cha sneezed three times in a row, and tears instantly flowed down her face. She took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped her tears first, then wiped her nose, and finally wrapped her cloak tightly around her body.
Just as Jin Jing opened her mouth to persuade her to go back, before she could say anything, she saw a black shadow falling in front of them. A closer look revealed that it was the shadow sent out to secretly escort Wan Yanxi.
"Boss! Military advisor!" Shadow saluted Chen Cha and Jin Jing, "Something happened!"
"Sure enough!" Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, "Tell me in detail."
"Yes." Shadow lowered his hands and stood in front of Shen Cha and Jin Jing, "After Wan Yanxi left the inn, he returned directly to the Regent's Palace. On a secluded road not far from the Palace, he was intercepted and killed. I don't know about the two Yelu. Did the young master expect that such a situation would happen before? They arranged their manpower in advance, and the killers who intercepted and killed were surrounded as soon as they showed up."
"Luring the enemy deep, luring the king into the urn!" Shen Cha was not surprised at all by this so-called emergency situation, "They would never take that path normally, just because they wanted to make this plan and make the other party believe it. , so I have passed there frequently in the past two days. The killer doesn’t know that although it is easy to ambush there, it is even easier to be ambushed.”
"The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole follows behind." Jin Jing raised the corners of her lips, "The Jin man didn't understand the terrain here and was fooled."
"Yelunan tried hard and soft, but still couldn't pry the Jin man's mouth, so he could only use Wan Yanxi as a cover. If the Jin man had other arrangements in the city, he could use Yan Xi to lure them out. If not, he could also use Wan Yanxi as a cover. Nothing is lost.”
"The two of them had been dithering for a long time and were asking us for ideas, but they still couldn't make up their minds and didn't know what happened. They finally decided to do this. They were probably annoyed by the Jin man's bad attitude. That's when I decided to burn the boat. However, the effect is still quite good." He glanced at Shadow, "How is Wanyanxi's condition? Is he injured?"
"Basically, I didn't suffer any injuries. Apart from being a little frightened and having some scratches on my body, everything is fine."
"What about the killer?"
"There were thirty people in total. Fourteen died on the spot. All sixteen including the two leaders were captured, and none of them escaped. They were more or less injured, but their lives were not in danger. Mr. Nan He personally led the people to put these killers into prison, and sent Yelu Heyi to enter the palace in person to report the news to the King of Liao and Young Master Yelulan. As for Wanyanxi, we saw with our own eyes that he was escorted back to the Regent's Palace by Prince Nan's personal entourage. It's just... ..." Shadow looked at Jin Jing and then at Shen Cha, "But there is one strange thing. Half of these thirty people use Japanese swords."
"Japanese sword?" Shen Cha and Jin Jing looked at each other, "Are you sure? Are you sure you saw a Japanese sword?"
"We are sure, we can see clearly that it is indeed a Japanese sword. Moreover, the sword technique is exactly the same as that of the Japanese."
"Oh, those Japanese people are really not telling the truth. I just said that they have spent so much effort, there is no way they can just send in these few Japanese people."
"It's not necessarily the truth, Xiaocha, maybe they don't know each other's existence!" Jin Jing waved her hands, "In my opinion, they should have their own tasks, and the ones caught first are here to assassinate us. And the King of Liao. And these now... I am afraid that they were specially prepared for Wanyanxi, and the orders they received should be immediate hits."
"This... is also possible," Shen Cha remained calm, "However, maybe the person who intercepted and killed Wan Yanxi was not a Japanese, but a Jin who learned the Japanese sword technique. The Japanese sword technique is not very good. It’s difficult, just read it twice and you’ll be fine.”
"Boss, there is no doubt that they are Japanese people. Japanese people and Jin people can be easily distinguished from their body shapes. Jin people are naturally tall, but Japanese people are short. Although they dress the same as Jin people, you can still see that there are obvious differences. There is a difference." Shadow explained, "Moreover, at the critical moment, they did not speak the common language. Therefore, it can be determined that the half of the killers who used Japanese knives were genuine Japanese people, not Jin people. According to our observations, these Japanese people should have lived in Jin for a long time, and their behavior has the flavor of Jin people."
"Can you tell who sent me?"
"This..." Shadow shook his head, "I'm sorry for my blindness, but I really can't tell. I can only wait for Mr. Nan's interrogation."
"It seems that the Jin people have completely hooked up with the Japanese people. I don't know what benefits the Jin people promised the Japanese people."
"Brother Xiaojing, no matter how many benefits you promised, it's useless. If the Japanese succeed, the Jin people will find that these thieves want much more than what was agreed. To be more serious, the entire Jin Kingdom may Pay it in!"
"That's true. The southern coast defense has made such a mistake. If it weren't for the bravery of the navy, we wouldn't have a quiet life now. The lessons from the past are right in front of us. The Jin people didn't even look at them. They still thought they were right and did such a stupid thing. If it wasn't them who were unlucky, who else could it be? This time, no matter which of them colluded with the Jin people, the other two groups would also be blamed. As we said before, in the eyes of outsiders, people can only say Jin The country broke the rules, not one of them." Jin Jing took a deep breath, "A good hand of cards was beaten to pieces, and the fate of the Jin country was doomed."
"That's right!" Shen Cha nodded, "This move is to tell everyone that they have found a strong helping hand. Not only will they no longer play with you, but they will also become your enemies. If you are not afraid, just Go ahead." She looked at Jin Jing, "How do you think the Tubo and Duan clan would react if they knew what the Jin people were doing?"
"Definitely not in high spirits. Although these two kings are not very smart most of the time, they are still able to deal with such things clearly and will never join the Jin people." Jin Jing turned over. Rolling his eyes, "Whether it's Tubo or Duan, in their view, doing business is business, but being neighbors is absolutely impossible. We know what the Japanese are like, and those who have had contact with them are even more It’s clear. The Japanese’s sphere of influence is only on their small island. We can fight with ourselves, so we don’t have to worry about it. If their claws reach out to us, everyone will be their enemy. They will know by then,* *More terrible than natural disasters.”
"The Jin people are seeking death. Since they are like this, there is no need for us to cover up for them. After meeting and discussing with Yerunan, we will spread the news and let the Jin people become the target of public criticism."
"good!"
A gust of cold wind blew, and Shen Cha sneezed a few more times. Seeing everyone's worried eyes, he waved his hands gently and said, "It's okay."
"It doesn't matter, I have the final say." Jin Jing stood up straight, "Mei Zhu, go back and make some medicine for Xiao Cha. Drink it first to avoid getting really sick." Seeing Shen Cha trying to refuse, his eyes widened. Eyes, "If you don't listen to me, I will go back and file a complaint."
"... Got it!" Shen Cha was helpless as Jin Jing always threatened her with Shen Haolin, and could only sigh, "I'm afraid it's going to snow heavily, let's go back!" She glanced at Shadow , "Go back and rest first, there is no need to follow us."
"Yes, I'm resigning!" Shadow saluted and hurried back to the inn.
Shen Cha and Jin Jing walked back calmly with Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, talking about what happened tonight while walking.
"If it were me, I would have done this a long time ago, and it wouldn't have taken so long." Shen Cha looked at the snowflakes falling in the sky and chuckled, "Jin people have a hard mouth, it's not that easy. They pried it open. In addition, this time they were relying on themselves as envoys, and Yerunan did not dare to torture them, so he would not open his mouth. Although Yerunan also knew this, since Wanyanxi was his He has some very important cards in his hand, so he will have some scruples."
"Let me tell you, this scruple is nonsense, the result of Yerunan's own random thoughts. Both we and Yerunan are capable of protecting Yan Xi Zhouquan, and we will not put his life in danger at all. This is the prerequisite for the entire plan. If it cannot be done, the plan will be nothing more than a piece of paper."
"The authorities are confused, but bystanders know clearly. It is understandable that he is stuck in it and cannot understand." Shen Cha smiled, "However, through this interception and killing, Wanyanxi can clearly see how many people are waiting for him. We keep him alive and hope that he will return to take charge of the overall situation."
"Before, I thought that Wanyan and Wen's old subordinates should be sincere towards him, but looking at it now, it doesn't seem to be the case."
"Wanyan and Wen support him wholeheartedly, but those under him may not." Shen Cha reached out to catch a few snowflakes and watched them slowly melt in his hands, "Once the emperor and the courtiers , although these words don’t sound good, they are true. Wanyan and Wen, the head of the family, are no longer here. It stands to reason that his staff and supporters are free. No one can stop them from following whoever they want. , and no one will gossip. After all, none of them have seen Wanyanxi and don’t know whether he is worthy of support."
"Wanyanxi wholeheartedly wanted to take these people for his own use, but he didn't expect the result to be like this." Jin Jing patted the snowflakes on her body, "He should know by now that without outside assistance, he wants to get Jin Jing back." Country, how difficult it is to avenge one's father and brother."
"Recognizing reality and abandoning unrealistic fantasies is what he must do now."
"You..." Jin Jing saw Shen Cha's eyes rolling twice and couldn't help but shudder, "What other evil idea have you come up with?"
"It's not a bad idea, but a good way to wake him up!"
