My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 1256

[Chapter 1216 Long time no see]

The same promise was also given to King Jin.

In the letter, the prince told King Jin everything he had heard from Emperor An about the agreement between Jing Zhe and Kadan. This was also the fundamental reason why Kadan turned against Jingzhe.

The two discussed that the King of Jin and the rebellious Kadan would lead an army from the west of Jin under the pretext of rebellion and advance all the way eastward. The King of Jin must march slowly at the beginning, because the prince would encourage Emperor An to write a letter to guide Jing Zhe from Jiang Ling went to Ruzhou – Emperor An at that time never imagined that his son had already figured out how to kill him.

The King of Jin must kill Jing Zhe in Ruzhou, and then take the elixir from Jing Zhe’s hand. At that time, the prince will confer the King of Jin as a hereditary vassal, and permanently cede Jinxi and Ruzhou to the King of Jin.

Of course, the prince did not tell King Jin about the efficacy of the elixir in Jing Zhe’s hand.

And all this went very smoothly. The Southern Qi invaded. Under the inducement of the prince, Emperor An and the Protector Yu Sheng went on an expedition, with the prince accompanying him. Later, the Lord Protector was stabbed to death during the battle. Although Emperor An was hit by an arrow, But it didn’t hurt the vitals. As long as you practice it properly, there won’t be any problems.

It wasn’t until the moment Emperor An died that he realized that the prince who had been taking care of him had already had second thoughts. Before he could return to Jingzhou, the prince killed him on the carriage. When he returned to Jingzhou, he lied that Emperor An was seriously injured. He died due to his injuries, and then succeeded to the throne as a matter of course.

All this went according to the plan of the prince and Prince Xiang, and the two of them suddenly transformed. One became the new emperor of Anguo, and the other was canonized as the permanent prince.

According to the previous discussion, once Emperor An was killed and Su Lichen succeeded to the throne, Nan Qi would take the initiative to withdraw its troops. At that time, Su Lichen would cede Jiangling to Nan Qi.

But now the Southern Qi Yinxi Army is still outside Jingzhou City, which makes Su Lichen very puzzled, so he looked at King Xiang and asked: “Have you asked someone? What are they here for?”

King Xiang listened, He shook his head with the same solemn expression.

“Back to Your Majesty, I have asked. The third prince of Southern Qi only said that they have been fighting for many days and the Yinxiu Army has already been exhausted, so they have to rest here for a few days before making plans.”

“…”

Su Lichen was stunned after hearing this. .

exhausted? Rest? Still in the same place?

Who the hell believes this kind of nonsense?

It turned out that according to the previous agreement between Nan Qi and Su Lichen, as long as Emperor An died in the battle, Su Lichen would send troops again after he succeeded to the throne. Nan Qi and the Anguo army would fight a few painless rounds symbolically, and then Su Lichen would Anguo ceded Jiangling to Southern Qi on the grounds that its combat power was inferior to that of Southern Qi.

After that, Nan Qi should withdraw its troops.

But now, the battle has been fought and Jiangling has been captured, but the Southern Qi Yinlu Army has no intention of retreating and has been gathering outside the Jingzhou city wall. Fortunately, they only gathered outside and did not launch an attack on Jingzhou. Otherwise, Su Lichen, who had just ascended the throne, was really not sure that he could hold Jingzhou.

After Prince Xiang Su Limin saw Su Lichen deep in thought, a sneer flashed across his face, but it was fleeting.

Everyone is selfish and lives only for themselves.

The reason why King Xiang reached a consensus with Su Lichen was that he did not want to be King Xiang for the rest of his life, but he was also absolutely unwilling to succumb to Su Lichen for the rest of his life.

So he secretly contacted King Jin. After all, he had a good relationship with Prince Jin’s eldest son Su Xinping, so he also had a special channel to communicate with King Jin.

He told King Jin the actual effect of the elixir, and asked King Jin to promise to give him an elixir. When King Jin arrived in Jingzhou, King Xiang would cooperate with him inside and outside. When the time came, he would kill Su Lichen, and King Xiang would follow King Jin. Think long term.

As for the Silver Thread Army outside the city, King Xiang is not worried, because the emperor belongs to Su Lichen, and it is him who should be worried. He hopes that the Silver Thread Army will attack now. It is best to kill Su Lichen. Anyway, the Jin King’s army is coming soon. , his reinforcements are coming, who else is he afraid of?

All I can say is that everyone has their own agenda.

…

“Your Majesty!”

Just as Su Lichen and King Xiang were standing on the city wall looking at the Silver Thread Army outside the city and thinking, the defenders on the west wall ran over.

“What’s wrong?”

Su Lichen asked with a gloomy expression.

“Your Majesty, under the wall of the West City, the King of Jin and the rebels from Western Xinjiang came to kill him!”

“???”

Su Lichen immediately went to see King Xiang. King Xiang shrugged, as if to indicate that he didn’t know.

At this time, Su Lichen felt numb all over, and no longer cared about the Silver Thread Army outside the city, he quickly got off the city wall, got on the carriage, and rushed towards the west city wall.

On the way, Su Lichen had already prepared for the worst.

King Jin still covets the throne?

Su Lichen felt that King Jin was too greedy. However, with his current strength, he could not do anything to King Jin. If he persisted, King Jin would storm into the city and kill him.

If he surrenders voluntarily… it can’t be considered a surrender. Su Lichen thought in his mind, it can be said to be a voluntary compromise, and then let the King of Jin make him a prince and take charge of one side, and then ask him to give him an elixir, then he will take the initiative to conquer Jingzhou. Give up the throne!

Although it is a pity to lose the throne, Su Lichen is still a very contented person in the final analysis. His ambition is not too heavy, so he is willing to live forever and take charge of a party.

There was no other way, and if he had other options, he wouldn’t be like this.

And he felt that King Jin would definitely agree to his conditions. After all, it would be better to get the throne without using any troops than to get the throne by bloodbath in Jingzhou, and there was already chaos in Jingzhou city. ——In the past, Emperor An was injured and died, and in the later period, the Yinlu Army of the Southern Qi Dynasty and the Jinxi Rebel Army attacked the city. It’s no wonder that the people are not afraid!

At this time, it is best to be able to avoid the bloodshed.

Thinking like this, Su Lichen had already arrived at the west city wall.

Walking up to the city wall and looking down, Su Lichen gave a wry smile.

Just look at the darkness under the city wall, and its momentum is even stronger than the Silver Thread Army under the east city wall. How to fight?

“Prince Jin, what are you…”

Su Lichen took the initiative to speak, preparing to mediate.

“Emperor’s nephew, long time no see!”

After so many years, King Jin came to the outside of Jingzhou City again. He was full of emotions. He was only one step away from entering Jingzhou and taking the throne. Thinking of this, he was excited. laughed.

Su Lichen’s face looked a little ugly.

The words “Emperor’s nephew” completely exposed King Jin’s thoughts!

You know, the King of Jin is still the King of Jin, and Su Lichen is already the new emperor of Anguo, but the King of Jin has no idea of a monarch or a minister when he sees him, and completely ignores him!

Although Su Lichen was unwilling, there was nothing he could do.

“Uncle, it’s been a long time indeed!”

Su Lichen adjusted his mood and said with a smile.
