Chapter 94 King Jin (5)
“In order to get rid of that little beast, I did not hesitate to quarrel with the Wei family, but none of the people sent to Black Island at that time returned! Wei Canghao really did this I learned some secret from that little beast, and I want to use it to blackmail the emperor."
Emperor Jin had a long, narrow face, with sparse eyebrows, a long and narrow nose, and his eyes were cold and narrow. A narrow-minded and sinister bird of prey that shows its true nature.
"No matter what secrets he has mastered, Longqiu is our territory after all. He thought he could use this to blackmail your Majesty, but we can take this opportunity to completely eliminate the hidden danger of the Wei family." Gongsun Ji He lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes.
Emperor Jin stared at Gongsun Ji with a deep look: "Gongsun Ji, you are the person I trust most, so I leave this matter to you. You must never call me Disappointed, we must bring Wei Canghao’s head back.”
Gongsun Ji knelt on the ground and said loudly: "I will do my best."
——
Yahaiguan
With vast expanse of blue waves, an ancient tower lies on the sea. The ten-meter-high wall was towering and majestic, and dust and smoke billowed. A disguised team meandered over, leaving heavy footprints on the vast flat sand.
As soon as the carriage stopped and the team stood still, Gongsunji raised his head and looked at the beacon tower on the city wall. His eyes went straight, but he saw no one.
But he would not naively think that the other party did not come to keep the appointment. The only possibility was that they had arrived first, found a suitable position, and secretly watched their every move.
After all, he was just a civil servant. Gongsunji pinched his knuckles, still a little worried about what might happen next.
"Your Majesty, we are here."
He returned to the carriage to report.
“Yeah.”
The internal officer respectfully stepped forward and opened the dragon brocade curtain of the carriage, placed a horse stool, and bowed out a man of medium height wearing a black brocade cloak.
Gongsun Ji Zizi stood behind him, one step away, followed by his bodyguards, and then followed by a "bloated" team of civilians.
The group of people walked towards the tower together.
On the tower, overlooking the sea to the south and the forest to the north, looking around, you can see almost the entire customs.
The scorching sun hangs in the sky, the long clouds drift to unknown directions, the sea and the sky are connected in a line, and everything is calm.
"The Emperor is already here. Since he has taken the initiative to invite you, why should he hide his face and dare not show up at this time?" Emperor Jin raised his chin and shouted loudly.
"According to the agreement in the letter, you should come alone."
A magnetic and deep voice sounded from behind, and Wei Canghao and his men arrived from another port. On top of the city tower.
Anyone who meets Wei Canghao for the first time will be struck by his awe-inspiring majesty. He looks like every man envies and longs to grow up. His appearance is upright and handsome, and every step he takes With calmness and dignity.
He stood opposite the Jin Emperor, a maritime overlord and the self-proclaimed new emperor of Longdong. Judging from the appearance, demeanor and figure, there was no doubt that they were worlds apart.
At first glance, it seems that both sides are not bringing many people, they are just accompanying them, as if they have made an appointment to go sightseeing in Yahaiguan together, but in fact, there is a turbulent undercurrent underneath, and who knows.
Although both sides are sure that the other side must have some hidden cards.
"Emperor Jin is a nobleman of the emperor and the son of destiny. How can he be manipulated by shameless people like you?" Gongsunji immediately retorted sharply.
Seeing that Emperor Jin and others did not show any surprise at his appearance, Wei Canghao knew that the other party had guessed it.
Although King Jin is arrogant and has the common problems of powerful people, if he is not alert and smart, how could he control Longdong and become emperor in such a short period of time.
"So the Emperor of Jin came here this time not to be coerced into submission by shameless people like us, but to annihilate the enemy?" Wei Canghao responded with a sneer.
Emperor Jin and Gongsun Ji were immediately shocked.
This is indeed their true purpose, but before that, they need to find out one thing first, and only after confirmation can they make a prompt decision.
"Of course not." The lips under the brim of Emperor Jin's hat moved.
Wei Canghao stared at the King of Jin who was wearing a cloak. His fat figure was covered by drooping fabrics. The brim of the hat was wide, only half of his face was exposed, making it difficult for people to distinguish his true appearance. .
He suddenly said: "Take off the brimmed hat on your head. I have to confirm whether you are the Jin Emperor himself."
Gongsun Ji slightly opened his eyes, took a step forward and said: "Don't you send people all the time? Are you monitoring us? Is it true or not? I need to confirm?”
“Why are you so nervous? The more you block me, the more curious I become.” Wei Canghao said. He slowly added: "I only talk to the real Emperor Jin. If you get a fake one, I won't say anything."
Hearing this, Emperor Jin raised his hat angrily and said: Zhang Ma's long face was fully exposed in the sun, and he said coldly: "Master Wei, you are too suspicious."
Wei Canghao naturally recognizes people.
But Wei Canghao always felt that something was wrong.
So, he tested it again: "Emperor Jin, do you know what the content of the letter I sent is? How do you plan to talk to me?"
"Head of Wei Da, you know that I will never disclose the content in public, so why bother to test it like this? You have my life-threatening secret in your hands. You can ask for this deal, but who told me to fall into your hands?" Laughter makes you laugh.
Wei Canghao narrowed his eyes slightly, a glimmer of light flashed through his deep and focused eyes. He pretended to be persuaded: "Actually, it's not that Cang Hao wants to go against you, but that Emperor Jin has always refused. Cang Hao is willing to let the Wei family go. Cang Hao's move is just to protect himself. If the Jin emperor is willing to let the Wei family go and not drag the Wei family into your rebellion plan, I will keep this secret I accidentally learned until the coffin. Among them."
The two of them are playing their respective roles, not to mention how true they are, but the reasons between the lines are quite sufficient.
"I wonder where Master Wei got this secret?" Emperor Jin asked.
Wei Canghao said: "I wonder if Emperor Jin remembers that he sent people to Black Island. Did he borrow the Wei family's ship?"
Emperor Jin still had a smile on his face. , but his eyes are as sharp as a razor.
“Did the person on the island tell Mr. Wei?”
Wei Canghao’s silent expression said everything.
Emperor Jin glanced at Gongsun Ji, who nodded slightly to him, and then he said: "Head of the Wei family, I heard that you always keep your promises and keep your word, so how dare you risk your reputation and the lives of the entire Wei family?" "I swear, you have never disclosed this matter to any third party except you?" Wei Canghao thought to himself, although they were "secret" here, in fact the only ones who really knew the secret of King Jin were Xu Shanshan and the others. He knew nothing about the two Xu Shanshan sisters, let alone telling a third person.
“It’s a very important matter, so naturally I haven’t disclosed it to anyone.” Wei Canghao said.
"Really? That would be great." Emperor Jin suddenly became happy. He looked at Wei Canghao and said in a faint voice: "In this case, if I kill you and your followers, then this No one in the world will know it anymore."
Seeing that the time was right, Gongsun Ji fired the signal bomb that was already wet with sweat in his sleeve into the air.
Long snake-like white smoke shot straight into the blue sky, and at the same time a series of sharp air blasts were emitted.
Wei Canghao was startled.
Is this signaling?
But he has already arranged personnel to guard and inspect the various checkpoints around Ya Customs. They cannot bring the army here quietly!
But he underestimated King Jin’s ability after all. He saw a group of people rushing out of the forest behind the steep mountain wall in the north. They were about a hundred people, strong in stature, and dressed differently from what is common nowadays. Instead of long robes, cloth and linen clothes, they are made of animal cloth and woven long coats, with bows and arrows on their backs, ropes on their arms, and snake whips around their waists.
As soon as I saw the other party flying here, the dust and smoke billowing from a distance looked like a group of dark cheetahs galloping towards them.
For a moment, the "bloated" servants behind King Jin shattered the cloth on their bodies, revealing the shining scales and weapons underneath.
"Wei Canghao, no one can leave alive after knowing the secret of my king. Do you know who are coming to support now? Have you heard of the Knife Bandits?"
To the north of Yahaiguan, there are endless mountain peaks, and there is an inner island behind, inhabited by a tribe of nomadic and fierce bandits, called the Knife Bandits. They are isolated from the world on weekdays, except for the annual hanging. Only the Knife Festival will come out to kill and plunder.
Their whereabouts are secretive and their residence is mysterious. Few people know where these knife bandits live. Therefore, both the officers and soldiers and the Wei Jiajun tried their best to hunt down these gangsters and thieves, and they were eventually captured. He was thrown away and could not be apprehended.
"They are Chang Islanders and cannot leave the island easily. I know that you send people to monitor every day, and I also know that you will send people to monitor the arrangements in advance at the appointment place. If I come with a large number of troops, you will definitely run away. So, I mobilized troops to surround Changdao, and threatened the cutter bandits that if they did not mobilize for me, then I would order the entire island to be annihilated..."
Just as Emperor Jin was happily talking to Wei Canghao explained and shared his clever timing, but Gongsun disagreed and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to talk to him so much, just do what you want to do."
The Jin Emperor heard this , immediately stopped talking, realizing that he was a little carried away, and he really didn't say this anymore.
"Wei Canghao, Mr. Wei, have you ever fought against the Knife Bandits? You should know that they are all strong and cunning. One is against ten. If you fall into their hands, I'm afraid It's more dangerous than good."
Emperor Jin smiled happily, while Gongsun Ji was quickly protected by others to a safe place. Next, they will continue to fight for a short period of time, waiting to be hanged. Support from the knife bandits arrived as soon as possible.
"Do it!" Gongsunji shouted.
More than a dozen of Emperor Jin's men and horses rushed up quickly. Wei Canghao really didn't expect that Emperor Jin would find "reinforcements" in such a roundabout way.
And this "reinforcement" was not randomly found, but was specifically designed to defeat the Wei Army.
This is not to underestimate the enemy, but Emperor Jin is indeed difficult to deal with. If he is not careful, he may end up here.
Wei Canghao only had a dozen or so people around him. Although they were some good players, it was obvious that the battle had to be decided quickly. He took out a long whistle from his waist and blew it, and then the Wei family troops lurking around him Then he rushed out.
At present, the cutter bandits have not yet arrived, so Wei Canghao's side naturally has the upper hand.
Wei Canghao wanted to capture the thief first and capture the king first. His goal has always been the Jin Emperor. This time he went to the appointment with the intention of taking his life. Because of his body like lightning, no one had reacted yet. When he came over, he had already picked up his bow and arrow, and shot it out neatly -
Whoosh - an arrow hit his forehead.
He looks like he is holding a sword, but in fact his weapon is a bow and arrow, and he has superb archery skills and the ability to shoot instantly.
Before Emperor Jin died, his wide eyes were still filled with shock.
After killing the Jin Emperor, Wei Canghao thought that he would usher in an angry counterattack by his party members. However, Gongsunji was only surprised for a moment, and then showed an extremely strange and gloomy expression.
Those followers of Emperor Jin glanced at them and continued to fight with the Wei army.
At this time, Wei Canghao's head quickly flashed with alarm. He quickly looked at Emperor Jin's face, only to see that the face was slowly melting, finally revealing a completely unfamiliar young face.
This is not King Jin. Where is the real King Jin? !
Did the real King Jin never appear from beginning to end?
My heart tightened.
If King Jin had not appeared, what would have happened in this life-and-death battle? Thinking of this, Wei Canghao said loudly: "There is no need to fight, let's go!"
Seeing Wei Canghao trying to escape, Gongsun Ji took out a purple-red talisman from his sleeve and pointed it towards the dead fake. King Jin threw it away: "Wei Canghao, today is the day of your death. Since you are here, you should stay forever."
I saw the corpse touched the purple talisman, and suddenly a strange wave appeared. Thick purple smoke spread rapidly to the entire city tower. I thought the opponent had cast poisonous smoke, but I didn't expect that the purple smoke turned into a swarm of poisonous bees and pursued them.
“Demon, witchcraft!?”
Wei Jiajun used weapons, arms, or took off his clothes to fight, but these "poisonous bees" were not real objects after all. They penetrated directly into the body, and Wei Jiajun suddenly screamed and wailed, and fell to the ground in pain. Rolling.
When Wei Canghao saw this, he was at a loss for what to do. He wanted to wave his hand to block them, but a poisonous bee happened to pass through the back of his hand. When he lowered his head, he saw a black mark on his skin. Still stinging and painful.
What is this? !
"Wei Canghao, what kind of person is the Emperor of Jin? Do you think you can succeed with just a little trick?" A disdainful smile appeared on Gongsun Ji's handsome face.
"Although you are also a person, you should not be ignorant of praise. If the Wei family was willing to be loyal to the Jin Emperor, you would not have to die so miserably today."
"Who did you say died miserably?"
A clear voice sounded like a mountain stream, and each character was like a moving drop of water. When it fell into Wei Jiajun's ears, the unbearable pain was Scattered a bit.
Everyone looked back in shock, only to see a woman wearing a dark embroidered dress with a green parrot standing on her shoulders appeared from behind. Her eyes were deep and peaceful, and there was a slight smile on her lips. , with a solemn and vital aura around him, was walking towards this direction.
If the conditions at the scene were not suitable, she would have just returned from a trip, relaxed and calm.
"What are you..." Gongsun Ji was about to question her, but when his peripheral vision inadvertently hit the round object she was carrying, his pupils were suffocated and his face turned ashen.
"Is it him?"
She picked up the thing in her hand and asked quietly.
