Chapter 1789 Plot to seize power
Emperor Kogi's pretty face was cold, he looked at Abenomaro and asked, "What do you think, Minister Zuo?"
Abenamaro's old eyes were dim and he seemed to be able to fall asleep at any time. He muttered: "Prince Katsuragi is talented, intelligent and courageous. He will definitely fulfill his mission."
Gao Xiang Xuanli's expression changed, and he argued: "When the two armies are fighting, why would you send the prince to mediate? This move is really too dangerous. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Suga Nirika interjected: "The people of Tang Dynasty are powerful. Prince Katsuragi's visit is just the right time to declare the emperor's importance. He will get twice the result with half the effort."
Gao Xiangxuanli was about to say more, but Emperor Kogoku gently flicked his sleeves, lowered his eyes slightly, and said calmly: "Since both the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Minister of the Left think that Prince Katsuragi is suitable, then let's summon Prince Katsuragi to go...Prince They are the blood of the Emperor, and it is their duty to protect the Emperor's territory. Even if it is dangerous, how can we retreat? This matter has been decided, please retreat for now."
"Yes!"
Gao Xiangxuanli had no choice but to stand up and leave in a hurry, going to find Nanyuan Qian and others to discuss how to protect Prince Katsuragi...
*****
At the eastern foot of Asuka River, Hinokuma Temple.
The terrain here is gentle, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and close to the southern gate of Asukajing. It is the largest settlement place for "people from across the border" except Nanyuan.
As dusk approached, the rain still continued.
The patter of rain wetted the green and yellow vegetation on the hillside, then gathered into streams and merged into the streams, filling up the rivers.
Pines and cypresses are planted all over the temple. Even though it has entered autumn, the rain washes away the dust and reveals a green landscape.
In a Zen room with white walls and black tiles, Nanyuan Qingan, Sengmin, Prince Katsuragi and others were all present...
The light in the Zen room was dim, the windows were closed, and sandalwood was burned.
The hosts were all sitting around on the banquet. Prince Katsuragi gritted his teeth and said: "The traitor Su Ga wants to kill me, and I swear that we will never live together with him!"
Nanyuan's greetings were still majestic, with a solemn look on his face, and said in a deep voice: "The ambition of the Soga family has been revealed. This time the prince goes north to Sado Island, it will be difficult and dangerous. Although His Majesty has issued an edict, he must not Even if you don’t go, you must take precautions and never be careless.”
Prince Katsuragi said: "Teacher, don't worry. The student is asked to bring the dead bodyguards of the palace with him on this trip. Please be more vigilant along the way. You won't dare to act in a big way even if you think I'm a deer. Please don't worry."
Nan Yuan nodded slightly, but was still worried.
Gao Xiangxuanli said: "Even if we are fine this time, Su Wo's determination to join the deer will definitely be hard to change. As the saying goes, it is easy to hide an open gun and hard to avoid a hidden arrow. Who knows what kind of tricks he will come up with next time to murder His Highness the Prince? In my opinion, not It would be best to strike first and uproot the Su Wo clan!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.
Seng Min's snow-white beauty frowned, and he said cautiously: "You must not be careless about this matter. You should consider it in the long term. If you don't have a complete plan, you must not act rashly."
The Soga family controls the largest army and the largest number of tribesmen in the Japanese country. They are rich and powerful. If they fail to eradicate them, there will be endless troubles...
Everyone agreed.
Gao Xiangxuanli said anxiously: "Where in the world can there be a foolproof strategy? The situation is urgent. If Nasu Wo enters the deer and takes the advantage, once the prince is harmed, it will be too late for us to regret it! With the support of this beast, the prince, the eldest brother of the ancients, ascends the throne, and the Japanese military and government All the power will fall into his hands, and we are afraid that we will not end well.”
Nanyuan asked An to ponder for a while, and then said: "This statement is reasonable, and whether it is calculated mentally or not, it may not be impossible to kill Sugarulu. As long as the body dies, his father Suga Eyi is already old. Even if the Suga clan If the troops are strong and the horses are strong, they will be defeated immediately.”
Another person next to him offered advice: "In three days, it will be the day when envoys from Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla will come to Asukagyeong to enter the palace to pay tribute. Why don't we ambush a heavy army in the palace in advance and wait until Suwa enters Lushang Palace?" Kill him in one fell swoop?”
This man was about thirty years old, had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and looked very ugly.
It was Kai Inuyang Katsumaro, the leader of the palace guard.
Many Japanese names are followed by the word "Maro". These two words mainly appear in male names. They can also indicate that they are officials. In fact, they have no specific meaning...
Prince Katsuragi said in shock: "How can this be so? Soga has the power of a deer to conquer all three armies in bravery, and he can give birth to a tiger and a leopard with the power to carry a cauldron. How easy is it to attack and kill him in the Daichi Palace?"
Looking at the Japanese country, no one dares to ignore the martial arts of Su Ga Rulu. This person is born with extremely strong supernatural powers and has a perverse and violent temperament. Once the attack fails, this person will definitely go crazy, and maybe it will be a tragedy with blood splattering in the Daeguk Palace...< br>
Sea Inu Yasumaro said: "At that time, I will guard the palace gate and let it take off its sword. No matter how brave this inu is, how can it be our opponent if it is unarmed? At that time, I and several assassins will ambush on both sides. Go to the side hall and rush out together to kill him. Great things can be done!”
Everyone thought about it and felt that although it was dangerous, the chance of success was high.
As Gao Xiangxuanli said, what is without risk in this world? Compared with the huge profits and profits, the mere risks can be fought...
Prince Katsuragi's confidence was boosted and he couldn't help but get ready for action. However, he remembered something and asked: "Even if the traitor Soga is crowned, thousands of civilians, monks, and soldiers died in his family. These people must have received no news of the traitor Soga's death. They will definitely gather to attack the palace, and there will be chaos in the capital. What can be done?”
The Soga family has been in business for more than ten generations and has a profound foundation and powerful strength. Its mansion in Ganqiaoqiu is a mountain city. It is built on the mountain and is extremely strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are still thousands of monks and soldiers in Asuka Temple. They will be angry and raise troops to avenge Suga. Asuka will be in chaos. Maybe they will be invaded by the palace if they are not careful. That will be a tragedy...
Nanyuan asked An and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about this matter. All you need to do is kill Su Wo into the deer and send it to the Daji Hall. It's done over there. As for the Su Wo clan's tribesmen, monks and soldiers, leave them to me to deal with." br>
Although everyone didn't know what method he used to deal with the loyal monks and soldiers of the Suga clan, Nanyuan asked An Su to be prudent and wise. If he was not sure, he would not dare to say such affirmative words. So everyone nodded and was excited!
Gao Xiangxuanli said: "Although His Majesty has issued an edict and ordered the prince to go north to Sado to mediate with the Tang people, it is not appropriate to leave the capital at this time. We will hide for now. After three days, the situation will be decided. It will not be too late to discuss how to deal with the Tang people. ”
Everyone nodded together.
At this time, Prince Katsuragi must never leave Asukakyo...
Prince Katsuragi said: "Then I will hide in this Hinokuma Temple for two days. After three days, we will enter the palace together, lay down a dragnet, kill the traitors Suga, help the emperor's bloodline, and revitalize Yamato!"
< br>
"Revitalize Yamato!"
"Revitalize Yamato!"
A suppressed shout resounded in the Zen room, deafening and deafening, but was blocked by the patter of rain outside. Unexpectedly, it spread out and was heard by others...
The people present here are all knowledgeable people from the Japanese country, bringing together the royal family, ministers, scholars, and military generals, vowing to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the Soga clan, bring the supreme imperial power under the control of the emperor, promote reforms, and abolish the corrupt system of the past. Learn everything from Datang.
These people all believe that once they seize power, they will lead the Japanese country to a prosperous and prosperous road. In time, they will be able to compete with the tyrannical Tang Dynasty!
*****
Just as the autumn rain was pouring in Asukakyo, and a group of ambitious people were full of ambitions and tried to seize the supreme power of the Japanese country, Mutsu Kingdom, far north of Honshu Island, was also shrouded in continuous rain.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, the wind and waves were surging along the long coastline, and countless dilapidated boats rode the wind and waves to reach the gentle beach...
When the ship ran aground, countless soldiers wearing leather armor immediately poured out from both sides of the ship. They jumped into the waist-deep water with high morale, brandished the sharp weapons in their hands, gritted their teeth and exerted their strength, and rushed towards the shore. rushed away.
They knew that elite Japanese soldiers were stationed at Hachiman Shrine not far from the shore, but they were fearless!
Because they know better that just behind Hachiman Shrine are endless fields, fertile soil and abundant rivers, which breed countless grains and have fed generations of Ezo people! However, the greedy and cruel Japanese drove them out of their homeland where their ancestors had lived for generations, and had to survive on the ice-covered Ezo Island...
Now they're back!
They have the best armor and the sharpest weapons. They are born hunters, and their bones have the courage to fight against tigers and wolves for generations, even though the number of young and strong people in the tribe is no longer one-tenth of what it used to be. , but they still believe that their power, with their powerful weapons and equipment, is enough to crush all the Japanese into pieces!
"Kill!"
The young samurai who rushed forward raised the horizontal sword in his hand high, and the sharp tip of the sword was pointed at the Hachiman Shrine on the hill!
"Kill!"
Countless young Ezo people, with red eyes, spread their legs and rushed toward the hills!
This is the homeland that has been away for a hundred years. Generations of Ezo people look across the sea with tears in their eyes, dreaming all the time of being able to return to their homeland one day!
This is the home of the Ezo people. The long grass covers the tombs of their ancestors. The once fertile land has become barren. Countless blood is needed to irrigate the rivers and wash away the humiliation!
Either the blood of the Japanese or the blood of the Ezo people! (End of chapter)
