The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

This would achieve a lose-lose situation, allowing the other party to reap the benefits.

Jiang Chuan felt that Han Fei's lack of action made him think that he needed to add fuel to the fire.

Of course, given Han Fei's concern for Hong Lian, he would certainly take action. However, what Han Fei did might not be the result that Jiang Chuan would be satisfied with.

Some new ideas began to form in his mind.

But before that, I'd like to consult Ru Shuang's opinion.

Ru Shuang pondered for a while. Having learned what kind of person Han Fei was from Jiang Chuan, she said in a deep voice, "Han Fei is a Legalist. Since returning to the country, he has never overstepped the rules. He can be said to have set an example by actively obeying and abiding by the law. For him, the law is the bottom line. But there are always some people who are above the law, who can cover up the sky and do whatever they want."

"These people are Ji Wuye and Ye Mu, so Han Fei wants to get rid of Ye Mu."

"If I were Han Fei, I would probably try to persuade the King of Han to change the law and withdraw the marriage decree."

"I'm not entirely sure how to do it specifically."

"Either by reporting Ji Wuye's corrupt and lawless behavior, causing the King of Han to revoke his reward, or by finding a way to change the King of Han's mind, so that the King of Han no longer favors Ji Wuye..."

Ru Shuang mentioned many possibilities.

Listening to Ru Shuang's words, Jiang Chuan knew that Ru Shuang had indeed thought about this issue seriously and had indeed analyzed Han Fei's character.

As Ru Shuang said, Han Fei was an extremely law-abiding person.

In the past, Shang Yang committed suicide by enacting laws, thus establishing the supreme authority of the law through his own death.

And that's exactly what Han Fei did.

Although he wanted to eliminate Nightfall, he never thought of using the assassination of Ji Wuye to carry out his plan.

Because doing so would be no different from a street thug killing someone in a fit of rage.

Such behavior is actually illegal.

Han Fei had already given his evaluation of such behavior, calling it "a knight-errant violating the law with martial arts." In the original work, Han Fei repeatedly dealt with Ji Wuye, and although he used strange and unusual tricks, he always stayed within the scope of the law.

Although Han Fei has not taken any action yet, he will take action sooner or later, and he may seek a way to break the deadlock from these aspects.

Jiang Chuan's eyes flickered as he pondered for a moment, then he asked Ru Shuang, "What if Madam wasn't Han Fei? What would she have done?"

Ru Shuang's answer was simple and clear: "I will kill Ji Yihu."

"Once Ji Yihu is dead, the root of all problems will be solved."

This is her using a cunning, analytical approach to problem-solving.

For Luo Wang (a network of online security agencies), if the problem cannot be solved through normal means, then the person who caused the problem will be eliminated.

This person was not only Ji Yihu, but also Ji Wuye and the King of Han.

The King of Han was the one who bestowed the marriage. If the King of Han dies, the entire country of Han will be plunged into turmoil. Even if a new king ascends the throne, he will definitely not allow Honglian and Ji Yihu to get married in the short term.

If Ji Wuye were to die, his immense power would cease to exist.

Why did the King of Han bestow a marriage upon Ji Yihu? It was precisely because Ji Yihu's father, Ji Wuye, wielded too much power. The King of Han did this in order to appease Ji Wuye and rely on his strength.

If Ji Wuye dies, the King of Han might change his mind, retract his order, and renege on his promise on the spot.

But the impact of either of these two deaths would be enormous.

Therefore, Ru Shuang, as a second choice, opted to let Ji Yihu die.

Then, she told Jiang Chuan all her thoughts.

“Indeed, if we can’t solve the problem, we can solve the problem by dealing with the person who caused it,” Jiang Chuan praised. “Actually, there is another person who caused the problem, and that is Princess Honglian. Or rather, she is the culprit behind everything.”

"It was because of her beauty that Ji Wuye was moved and proposed to her. It was because she was Han Fei's sister that Han Fei went to great lengths to stop her from marrying Ji Yihu."

"Killing Princess Honglian is actually one solution."

"But since we are thinking from Han Fei's perspective, we can ignore this method."

Jiang Chuan spoke eloquently, commenting on some of the methods proposed by Ru Shuang.

Among them, the matter of killing Ji Yihu mentioned by Ru Shuang made him ponder, because it was exactly the same as some of his own thoughts.

Ji Yihu is Ji Wuye's only son.

If he were to die, Princess Honglian would have no one to marry, and the matter of the arranged marriage would naturally come to nothing.

Of course, the matter of the arranged marriage simply came to nothing.

Other things are not over yet.

For example, Ji Wuye might go berserk; in his rage, no one knows what he might do.

Obviously, it would be impossible for Han Fei, who follows the law in everything, to do such a thing. Although he wanted to stop the wedding, he would never choose such a way to provoke Ji Wuye.

But Jiang Chuan didn't have so many concerns.

"Madam, what do you think about us helping Han Fei?"

Upon hearing this, Ru Shuang looked at Jiang Chuan with some surprise. As clever as she was, she naturally sensed the ill intent behind Jiang Chuan's words, but she didn't feel there was anything wrong with them.

Ultimately, they had no relation to Han Fei, so they had no moral sense of guilt.

"How does my husband plan to help Han Fei?" Ru Shuang asked Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan said, "Let's use the method that Madam mentioned. Kill Ji Yihu to eliminate future troubles and deprive Princess Honglian of her marriage prospect."

Jiang Chuan spoke in an extremely calm tone about something that Han Fei had thought about but was unwilling to do.

Without a doubt, if this succeeds, the enraged Ji Wuye will turn the entire Korean kingdom upside down.

The balance in South Korea will be completely disrupted.

Because at that time, Ji Wuye, who had no descendants, had nothing left to lose.

Only by killing all the suspects can the pain of losing a child be washed away.

Chapter 147 A Tumultuous Journey Back to the Capital

As Ji Wuye's only son, Ji Yihu was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

When he was born, Ji Wuye's power and status were already obvious.

Therefore, from a very young age, Ji Yihu lived a life of luxury and was unaware of the hardships of ordinary people. Influenced by Ji Wuye's daily indulgence in pleasure in the mansion, Ji Yihu also developed a hedonistic personality.

Anything he sets his sights on must be seized.

Ji Wuye always indulged him, because in Ji Wuye's view, if his only son wanted something, he would give it to him; it was not a big deal.

Over time, this led Ji Yihu to become arrogant and domineering, in addition to indulging in pleasure.

Back when he was still in Xinzheng, he was a notorious bully, whose fearsome reputation among the people was even greater than that of General Ji Wuye. After all, as a general, Ji Wuye had a broader perspective, and his enemies were political rivals in the court. Naturally, he wouldn't bother the common people for no reason. Ji Yihu, on the other hand, was different. He roamed around the people of Xinzheng all day long, and anyone who offended him would not have a good ending. Any woman he took a fancy to, regardless of whether she was married or had a good match, would have her family destroyed and her family brought to his mansion because of him.

And after he's done with it, this woman won't have a good ending either.

This situation continued until several years ago.

As Ji Yihu gradually came of age, Ji Wuye gradually realized that he could not let Hu'er continue to waste his life like this.

He's grown up now, and he'll inherit his mantle sooner or later.

It's time to send Tiger to the army for some training, so that he can lay some foundation for inheriting my mantle.

And so, the city of Xinzheng lost a bullying young master.

Meanwhile, the South Korean military has gained another scourge.

Even though Ji Yihu went to the army, because he was Ji Wuye's son, he didn't actually suffer much there. On the contrary, the officers and generals had to serve him very carefully.

He lived a life of luxury in the army.

Every few years, he would even have soldiers in his army plunder beautiful women from the common people for his pleasure.

If that's the case, that's it.

Ji Yihu also embezzled the merits they had earned. Over the years, he had embezzled countless merits earned by people who had risked their lives. His status in the army rose rapidly, and now he was a captain.

According to the division of ranks in the Korean military, after the Captain, there are the Deputy General, General, Supreme General, and Grand General. Among them, the Grand General is equivalent to the State Commandant of Qin, and is the highest military commander in Korea. Currently, the position is held by Ji Wuye, the father of Ji Yihu.

The Supreme General is the commander-in-chief of the Korean army.

Bai Yifei, for example, was the supreme general of the state of Han, commanding an army of 100,000 men. His White Armor Army was known as invincible.

Generals are ordinary military commanders, such as Liu Yi, the Left Sima. If he were to lead troops in war, he would be a general. The subordinate generals below the generals are the generals' deputy generals.

Next is Ji Yihu's position as a captain, who can lead a detachment of troops.

Of course, this is all under the condition of war breaking out. At present, South Korea and neighboring countries have not had a war for several years. Although Ji Yihu is a captain, he has no experience in leading troops on his own.

And he doesn't have that ability.

Ultimately, he came to the military simply to gain prestige.

Originally, Ji Wuye planned to let Ji Yihu rise to the rank of lieutenant general in the army before making any further moves.

However, due to matters concerning the imperial court, he had to secretly order Ji Yihu to return immediately.

Although the King of Han has already issued an imperial decree to grant the marriage.

However, the wedding can only take place after Ji Yihu returns.

Ji Wuye wasn't afraid of Han Fei, but his old rival Zhang Kaidi did make him somewhat wary. Zhang Kaidi was doing everything he could to obstruct the marriage, and no one knew what he would do before the wedding took place.
