The eight kings sat neatly around a round table. Sishe stood in front of a blackboard and wrote the code names of many forces on the blackboard, as well as the relationship between these code names and the various actions that were unfavorable to the prince this time. kind of thing.
"Let's talk about the Prince of Yue's Mansion first. The spy sent information that King Li Tai of Yue asked the Hidden World Family to secretly train a group of five hundred killers. Most of these killers are actually members of the Hidden World Family and the various schools of thought."
"The King of Yue has sent them out. The target is the prince. They want to intercept the prince on the way and prevent him from returning to Chang'an City."
"We also went together with the second head of the Yin Yang family and the Si family, one of the eight major surnames of the Hidden World family. We did not find out how many people they sent."
"These people are very shrewd. For fear of leaking the news, they did not plan in advance where to intercept His Highness. Instead, their leader decided at any time."
After listening to this, everyone had expressionless faces. Five hundred people wanted to leave the prince halfway, but the King of Yue was thinking nonsense.
This time when the prince returned, he already knew that someone did not want him to go home and intercepted him on the way.
Therefore, arrangements have been made. First, the two hundred people from the youth camp will set off first to clear obstacles and remove unstable factors on the road.
And protecting the prince all the way eastward, there are also the eighteen riders of Yanyun and the twelve masters of Loulan. It should be the fourteen masters of Loulan now. In addition to Nan Ruxian, Queen of Loulan, there is also a female war goddess!
Following closely behind the prince were more than two thousand Mohist troops. The Mohist army suffered heavy losses this time, with more than half of them being directly killed or injured.
On the left and right sides of the prince, there is also His Majesty's Tiance Army, but the Tiance Army has suffered more losses than the Mohist Army so far, with only 3,000 people left. Currently, only 1,000 people are left.
But these people are all veterans who are not afraid of death, and they are masters among veterans.
With this arrangement, even the masters of the eight major surnames of the Hidden World will be disabled or disabled after entering.
Si Huaijin said: "Commander Sishe, have you told the prince about this?"
Si She shook her head and said: "It's not necessary for the time being. If the King of Yue wants to take action, he should know that he will bear the prince's anger after failure. It's better to teach him a lesson and let the few people under him be wiped out."
"However, I have already informed Yan Yunda that the people from the Eight Great Si and Yin Yang families are planning to attack His Highness. He will arrange everything and wait for them to be arrested."
"According to His Highness's instructions, this time he came all the way east, and he planned to clear out all the unstable forces in Chang'an City."
Wang Yi frowned and said, "Snake, isn't it too dangerous for the prince to use himself as bait?"
Sishe smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, you can rest assured about this. His Highness is no longer what he used to be. Even if those people can kill His Highness, there is nothing they can do against His Highness."
"Next, I'll talk about other forces."
Sishe pointed to the Changsun Mansion on the blackboard and said: "The Changsun family had a big feud with His Highness before. After several fights in the past, the Changsun family suffered greatly every time, and in the end, Changsun Wuji was disgraced... "
"However, the treacherous intentions of the Changsun family have not died. They are still planning to let the former crown prince Li Chengqian continue to be the crown prince. However, the premise must be that my prince cannot sit in that position..."
"Changsun Wuji has already won over several important officials in the court. In addition, he has replaced the commander of the Forbidden Army with someone from his Changsun Wuji family, especially the general of the Forbidden Army, who is now Changsun Shunde. This old man is the eldest grandson. Wuji’s uncle.”
"So, before your Highness comes, we must give Changsun Shunde a crime so that Changsun Shunde will lose his position."
"As for how to do it, it depends on Si Huaijin."
Si Huaijin stood up and said with a smile: "This is simple, leave it to me. Within half a month, I will ensure that eldest son Shunde will fall from the position of commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army."
"The first two forces are on the surface, but this third party is much more difficult to deal with. Our people have not found out yet, who is behind this third party?"
"But they have already issued a killing order to intercept the prince on the road."
Everyone's expressions turned ugly. They didn't expect that there was a third-party force. What was the origin of this third-party force? Why did they want to kill the prince?
Si Huaijin asked: "Could he be from the Hidden World Family?"
Sishe shook his head and said: "Probably not. If the people from the hidden family want to kill the prince, they will not rely on these ordinary people. And this third party has bribed the notorious Eight Holy Monsters in the world."
"The Eight Holy Monsters have been hidden for many years and have never appeared in the world. It used to be a legend. They were only loyal to Dou Jiande in the early days of the founding of the Tang Dynasty. After Dou Jiande died, they disappeared."
"But recently they showed up and threatened that King Qin would not be able to return to Chang'an City."
Everyone was silent for a long time, and Ma Qiu stood up and said: "My Jin Yiwei is already investigating the Eight Saint Monsters. They say that the person behind the Eight Saint Monsters is a man wearing a tiger head mask. His voice is hoarse, and it doesn't look like that." People from Guanzhong, the accent sounds more like people from Youyan."
Wang Yi stood up and said: "No matter what, we will be blocked by soldiers and covered by water and soil. We must still go all out to ensure that the prince can return safely."
Si Huaijin said: "Okay, from today on, all the masters in heaven and earth will be sent out to guard along the way. If there is any trouble, report to Yanyun immediately."
"Our main task here is to ensure the safety of the Crown Princess!"
"It's just that the Crown Princess was taken to the palace by His Majesty. Hey... we are busy outside."
Everyone discussed for a long time and arranged many things properly before everyone dispersed.
At the same time, the Eight Great Vajras, including Si Snake, will not appear in public from today on, and will all be controlled behind the scenes, so as not to be discovered by His Majesty's people and misunderstood that they are planning to rebel.
Liangzhou City in the northwest.
A group of more than a dozen carriages slowly entered Liangzhou City.
The leader was the carriage of King Qin Li Ke. The officials guarding Liangzhou City were waiting at the gate in advance. When King Qin's carriage arrived, they immediately welcomed him into the city.
At this moment, Liangzhou City has changed a lot compared to a year ago. The city has become taller and taller. The ten-mile radius of the city is an extension of Liangzhou City. It has become the largest city in the Western Region.
Most of the caravans traveling between the Central Plains and the Western Regions would stay here for a few days and conduct transactions in Liangzhou City, so Liangzhou City was very prosperous.
When Li Ke entered Liangzhou City, there was an endless stream of caravans and various business travelers coming and going.
However, among these business travelers, there were naturally people with ulterior motives, and the target of these people was King Qin Li Ke.
Some of them are from secluded families, some are from royal families in the Western Regions, and there are even people from Nestorianism and Snowy Plateau Buddhism.
The major forces in the Central Plains naturally have the largest number of people, but they still dare not take action in Liangzhou City. They can only inquire about the information in Liangzhou City and then pass it on to the people behind them.
