Chapter 1923
Peidu was destined to not be peaceful tonight.
Located in the west of the city, in the huge Shanshui Courtyard. Dong? Be careful and wait for an answer. Yi Temple? Jing Zhan Lou? Qiao Shuo's Splendid Slaughter? Eh?
Back then, that man with the surname Chen looked down on him and chose the short-lived Liu Yancheng to be the Prince of Pei. This caused his status in Pei to plummet, and all his lofty ambitions turned to dust.
Later on, with the help of that man, Liu Yan continued to expand his territory. He was pressured to the point of being unable to breathe, and thought that there was no hope for him in this life.
Who would have thought that the tables would turn? After tonight, that man would bid farewell to Peidu. Liu Yan would lose his biggest backer, and he would rise to power!
Thinking that he was about to ascend to the throne, his heart jumped with joy. He wished that man would disappear quickly so that he could personally kill his good-for-nothing brother.
The officials' congratulations were endless. The aroma of fine wine and the pleasant sound of the zither covered the commotion outside. Yao Liang? Humorous stupidity boast Meng Xiao.
Until the guard's body was thrown into the hall, the Water Dance Army surrounded the entire mansion in the blink of an eye. Dizhu Hahaha Zhu Wei Coiled Locust Why?
He saw his younger brother, Prince Pei, clad in armor, personally leading the army into the hall.
"Second Brother, I've given you many chances, but you've failed to live up to my expectations."
"Today, you must die. I'll do it myself. It's a sign of respect for you and a reminder to myself that an emperor is heartless!"
Liu Yan was still very young, but at this moment, his delicate and pretty face revealed unswerving determination and callousness.
Gu Chen's order was conveyed by the Clay Bodhisattva. He immediately understood that his Master was somewhat disappointed in him.
Back when his master helped him sit on the throne, he had mentioned the problem of his brothers, but because of his brotherly love, he was still soft-hearted and didn't put in much effort to solve the problem.
He thought that his second brother would return the favor because of his brotherly love. He didn't expect that when the Pei Kingdom was in danger of being destroyed, the first person to attack him was his brother!
Because of his soft-heartedness, the Pei Nation had fallen into civil strife when it was in danger. As a result, the frontline military intelligence was delayed. Every moment, there were good men of the Pei Nation dying on the battlefield!
Those soldiers also had their own families, but in order to protect the country, they risked their lives to fight on the frontlines, while these so-called royals and nobles fought endlessly in the rear for their own selfish interests, and even betrayed the country.
Over the past few days, he finally understood that the so-called heartless monarch did not mean that he was heartless, but for the sake of righteousness, for the sake of the country, sometimes sacrifices had to be made!
Because of his soft-heartedness, countless men of the Pei Kingdom had died on the battlefield. This was his sin!
"Kill! Leave no one alive! "
Liu Yan gave the order, and the Water Dance Army immediately rushed into the hall. They raised their swords, and the so-called high officials and nobles fled in panic. One by one, they bled!
They even tried to explain why they were at Liu Feng's house. Di Nanman? Xi? Go up? Jinning? Jing Huan? Chest?
"Little brother, my good little brother! I was just deceived by a scoundrel, I … "
His dream was shattered, and death was at hand. Yu Rui is a model? Is the dam blowing this low point to converge? Qian Qian? Calling Tan Mi to be a coward? Milk Fried Scabbard?
Sheathing the sword, the whole process was clean and neat. Liu Yan turned around and left. This luxurious courtyard was buried in the fire in the blink of an eye!
…
Jin Kingdom, Jin City, Marshal's Mansion. Late at night.
Since Tie Muan, the King of Jin, announced his abdication and abdicated to Marshal Tie Li, the Marshal's Mansion had become the highest power center of the Jin Kingdom.
Although Tie Li was already the king, he was used to working in the Marshal's Mansion. He had never lived in the royal palace.
The security of the Marshal's Mansion was even tighter than that of the royal palace. Not only was there the Elite Destruction Army trained by Tie Li himself, but there were also many powerful cultivators responsible for guarding the mansion.
In a restaurant not far from the Marshal's Mansion, Ye Jin, the eldest daughter of Ye Wunian, stood side by side with Tu Xiong, who was carrying a broadsword on his back. They were secretly watching the Marshal's Mansion.
"Are we really going to make Chen Yi the Pavilion Master? It can't be fake, right? "
Tu Xiong said with a complicated look in his eyes.
The experience of the trip to the Ze Kingdom was still vivid in their minds. Who would have thought that in such a short time, that man would actually kill Pavilion Master Ye? Many of the higher-ups in the Pavilion had also acknowledged his position!
"My adoptive father has indeed lost contact with us. The higher-ups in the Pavilion have also sent out news at the same time, acknowledging Chen Yixin as the Pavilion Master. Do you think it's possible that it's false with so many higher-ups saying so at the same time? "
"No matter whether the higher-ups are controlled by Chen Yi or dead, it shows that he indeed has that power now. I know my adoptive father too well. He's so scheming, but now he's been defeated by Chen Yi. It means that we have no ability to compete with him at all. "
"Since we can't compete with him, we might as well serve him. The reshuffling of the higher-ups in Honesty Pavilion this time is also a chance for you to advance further."
"Most importantly, you also know that although I'm my adoptive father's oldest daughter, I'm actually not his first. My older sisters are all dead. "
Ye Jin let out a long sigh, but her beautiful eyes revealed some anticipation.
Her adoptive father's downfall meant that she and her sisters would be free from now on!
"What you said makes sense. I'm not good at scheming and such, so I'll just listen to you."
"It's just that the Marshal's Residence is heavily guarded. Ever since Qiankun Association supported Tie Li to the throne, they've sent quite a few cultivators to his side. Even if I personally take action, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to kill Tie Li. Where did Chen Yi find these people? He actually wants us to be responsible for dealing with the aftermath? Is he that confident in his men?
Tu Xiong said with some dissatisfaction. He was known as the Executioner, but he was usually only in charge of killing people. Since when did he become involved in logistics?
"Isn't it good that we don't have to take risks? The former Jin King, Tie Muan, has already been secretly moved away from the prison. As long as Chen Yi's men successfully assassinate Tie Li, our mission will be much easier, and it'll be a great merit. "
"But I'm also very curious about who Chen Yi sent instead of you, a war-level killer. If he succeeds in assassinating Tie Li later, we might be able to find out during the handover."
Ye Jin smiled faintly, and her face was filled with curiosity.
Not long after, there was a huge commotion in the marshal's residence. The army first gathered at Tie Li's residence, and then like headless flies, they searched the entire marshal's residence!
After that, loud cries came from the residence. Ye Jin and Tu Xiong looked at each other. "Success?"
There didn't seem to be any battle with the cultivators and army of the marshal's residence. Tie Li was already killed without anyone noticing?
The two of them felt that it was a little unbelievable. The cultivators sent by the Qiankun Association shouldn't be so useless. Moreover, Tie Li always had powerful consecrators by his side.
"We'll know what's going on if we ask the informant in the marshal's residence."
Ye Jin was very concerned. She turned around and was about to contact the informant, but she noticed that there was a piece of paper on the table behind them!
