"Yes!!" Mo Ya and Bai Feng bowed their heads and retreated out of the hall with their bodies bent.
Before the two of them reached the door.
Mo Ya and Bai Feng seemed to sense something in an instant. They turned around abruptly and looked at the door of the hall with vigilance.
"Who are you?! How dare you trespass into the General's Mansion!!"
As the main culprit, Ji Wuye was calm at the moment, but at some point, he grasped his eight-foot-long sword! He kept his eyes and ears alert, always on guard against any possible attack from any direction.
"Ji Wuye! As the general of South Korea, it seems that alcohol and sex have not made you lose your vigilance!!"
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps coming from afar, a figure with disheveled hair and six snake skull chains behind him, dancing like a spirit snake, walked towards the main hall in a dignified manner.
Seeing this figure from afar, Ji Wuye's heart moved, and he gripped the bronze knife even tighter. He waited quietly for the person to come.
"Red-browed Dragon Snake? Why don't you just hide in the gutter? Where do you get the courage to appear before me?"
"General Ji Wuye. I'm here to seek cooperation with you this time!!" Tianze came to the door of the hall as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in Ji Wuye's tone. Facing the blocking of his way by Mo Ya and Bai Feng, he had no intention of rushing through.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. After a moment of silence, Ji Wuye sneered, "You, the abandoned Crown Prince of Baiyue, who is still alive and is grateful that I didn't kill you, actually dare to ask for cooperation with me?"
Tianze's expression suddenly changed. But he knew that even if Baiyue had not been destroyed, and he was still the crown prince of Baiyue, he would still be inferior to the general who controlled the military power of Han.
Although Han was the weakest among the seven kingdoms, any one of the seven powers in the Warring States period had the power to defeat any of the surrounding barbarians.
The State of Yan is the best example.
You should know that when the State of Yan was first established, most of its territory was in the Central Plains. The reason why it is now moving more and more towards Liaodong is because it has ceded land repeatedly during years of war. Naturally, the territory is shrinking.
Fortunately, the State of Yan was close to the north, and every time it lost territory in the Central Plains, it could defeat the barbarians. As a result, its territory not only did not shrink, but expanded a lot.
Despite being surrounded by enemies, Han had no barbarians to conquer. Yet, even so, Han was able to join forces with Chu over a decade ago and annihilate the Baiyue across the border. This shows that no matter how strong or weak the Seven Kingdoms were, any one of them was a formidable threat to the surrounding barbarians.
Regardless, Korea was once known as the "King of Korea." Even though it is now weakened, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. It is still beyond the reach of the barbarians.
The king of Baiyue had to bow his head in front of Han, not to mention that Tianze was the deposed crown prince of Baiyue.
Tianze gritted his teeth unwillingly, clenched his fists, took a deep breath and said, "General, don't you know that the day of the fall of South Korea is not far away? Now that South Korea is alive, you are a general second only to the emperor, above ten thousand people, but if South Korea is destroyed..."
Ji Wuye sneered and said, "Han has stood for hundreds of years. Who in the world can destroy Han? Just you, the Baiyue?"
Tianze lowered his eyes, hating Ji Wuye in his heart. However, he needed help from Ji Wuye, so he had to suppress his anger and said, "What if it was Qin that destroyed Han?"
His face darkened. How could Ji Wuye not know that South Korea's current situation was actually very dangerous.
But over the years, the seven kingdoms had been engaged in constant wars, but at most they had ceded land, especially since Han had blocked Qin's eastward passage.
Even if they were truly destroyed by the Qin State, the remaining five Shandong states would definitely launch a coalition in the shortest possible time to help South Korea restore its independence.
It's just that at that time, the King of Han might need to be replaced. But many nobles are still nobles, and Han is still Han. Only he, the great general, is afraid that he will never be as powerful as he is now.
After staring at Tianze, Ji Wuye waved his hand.
Mo Ya and Bai Feng, who were blocking Tianze, immediately made way for him.
Tianze smiled and officially stepped into the hall.
"Tell me. What do you know?!" Ji Wuye said in a deep voice: "I think you should know what the consequences will be if you deceive me!!"
"General, do you know that I once teamed up with my subordinates to assassinate the Qin envoys?"
Ji Wuye nodded and said nothing.
How could he not know that it was because of Tianze's assassination that Ji Wuye suffered humiliation in front of Li Si and Ying An.
"What if I tell you, General, that the Qin delegation's original intention was to find a reason to attack Han?" Tianze said, "I believe you'll know that Qin is planning to use one of the Prince Ying'an to form a marriage alliance with Han. Perhaps many in the Han court believe that as long as Han can form a marriage alliance with Qin, peace can be achieved and there's no need to worry about Qin's invasion. Unfortunately, I'm afraid even the General has overlooked this point."
"Which point? Don't keep me in suspense!" Ji Wuye frowned in dissatisfaction.
"Ying An's health!" Tian Ze said with a confident smile, "As far as I know, Ying An has always been in poor health. He has been bedridden since birth and suffers from an incurable congenital deficiency. General, what will happen if a person with a congenital deficiency becomes obsessed with women?"
There was suddenly a hint of ambiguous meaning in Ji Wuye's eyes when he looked at Tianze.
"How do you judge that Ying An is obsessed with women?"
"Ying An had just gotten married three days before becoming the chief envoy of the Qin State delegation. During his journey, he was accompanied by three stunning beauties, including a pair of twin sisters from the Yin-Yang family. Coincidentally, Ying An's wife was also from the Yin-Yang family."
Tianze paused, seeing Ji Wuye frowning but remaining silent. He steeled himself and continued, "Not long ago, I attempted to assassinate the Qin envoys. I was thwarted by the Yin-Yang Clan. One of my Baiyue priestesses, skilled in wielding fire, has become Ying An's plaything! Even if Ying An's health is truly healed, how long can he expect to survive after years of deprivation?"
"You assassinated the Qin envoys in order to provoke war between Qin and Han. So, what is your purpose in coming to tell me all this now?" Ji Wuye looked at Tianze with a half-smile and said, "Do you think I'm a mediocre and reckless man who can be used at your will?"
"I just want to cooperate with the general." Tianze bowed slightly and said, "I believe that with the general's current status, there is no possibility of further advancement, unless... the general can play the trick of the Tian family replacing Qi and replace the King of Han!!"
"Hahaha..." Ji Wuye laughed and said, "You just said it yourself, the Kingdom of Han is in danger. If I take the initiative to seize it at this time, wouldn't I become the target of Qin instead of King Han An?"
"General! Qin may be powerful, but it is by no means invincible. If you can once again lead the six nations in a coalition against Qin, not only will you secure your throne as King of Han, but you will also be able to remain safe from Qin invasion for a considerable period of time."
Tianze's words instantly moved Ji Wuye's heart.
Indeed, with Ji Wuye's current power, he has almost no room for advancement in Han, unless he imitates the Tian family's trick of replacing Qi.
But now, the Zhou Dynasty has been completely destroyed by the Qin State. Under this premise, it is almost impossible for Ji Wuye to legally become the new King of Han.
But there are workarounds.
In Ji Wuye's opinion, Tianze's plan was good, but it was still missing the most crucial step.
That is to marry a Korean princess. Coincidentally, there is only one Korean who meets the requirements in all aspects, and that is Princess Honglian of Korea in this Qin-Han marriage.
It was well known that Princess Honglian had always been favored by King Han An. If Ji Wuye could marry Princess Honglian, then to a certain extent, he could reduce the resistance in his attempt to seize the throne of King Han.
Combined with Tianze's plan, it could be said that seizing the throne of King Han would be a perfect plan. The five states of Shandong were probably eager for a King Han like him who could withstand the pressure of Qin and firmly block Qin outside Hangu Pass.
Being able to become a powerful general in South Korea, Ji Wuye is definitely not as reckless and brainless as he appears to be.
In just a moment, Tianze's plan was further completed.
Ji Wuye looked at Tianze deeply and said, "I can give you a chance to show yourself, but you have to show enough sincerity first!!"
"General, I think you should be clear that my goal from the beginning has been to seek revenge on King Han An for the sake of Baiyue. As long as King Han An dies, my goal will be achieved." Tianze smiled and said, "But General, you want to replace the King of Han. I'm afraid that's not so simple. Now, General, you need me!!"
With a cold smile, Ji Wuye said, "I'll give you three days. If the Qin envoy dies within three days, then you will get what you want. Otherwise, the assassin who assassinated the Qin envoy will be caught soon!!"
The assassins who assassinated the Qin envoys were none other than Tianze's Baiyue group.
It can be said that Ji Wuye is now clearly telling Tianze that if he cannot kill Ying An within three days, then what will await the Baiyue Group is a catastrophic disaster.
Don't think Ji Wuye is just bragging. In Han State, especially Xinzheng, Ji Wuye's power is almost above everything else. Even Han Wangan is far from being able to compare with the great general Ji Wuye.
The reason why Han Fei's Quicksand was able to hold its own against Ji Wuye to a certain extent, and even often caused Ji Wuye to suffer losses, was entirely because in the struggle between Ji Wuye and Quicksand, Ji Wuye followed the rules.
But if you are dealing with the Baiyue Group, there is obviously no need to follow any rules.
The Baiyue Group itself was a tool used by Ye Mu. If this tool couldn't achieve his goal, Ji Wuye would certainly maximize the benefits, even if it meant abandoning this tool!
Lowering his head in humiliation, Tianze gritted his teeth and sneered, "The general will see. But I hope that after this is accomplished, the general can hand over all the royal family members of the Kingdom of Han to me, especially King Han An!!"
"Impossible!" Ji Wuye flatly refused: "Princess Honglian is still useful to me!!"
Not to mention Princess Honglian's identity, she herself is an indispensable aid for Ji Wuye in his attempt to seize the legitimate throne of Korea. Honglian's beauty alone is enough to make Ji Wuye unable to give her up.
How could Ji Wuye, who is so lustful, let go of Honglian, a beautiful girl who is also a princess and a plaything?
To Ji Wuye, Princess Honglian was just a tool for him to use. But even so, she was not something Tianze could use to negotiate terms.
Tianze was silent for a moment, then said, "I can wait until the day she loses her usefulness to the general. I believe the general doesn't want the future heir to the general's throne to have the blood of King Han An!"
"Okay!" This time, Ji Wuye agreed without any hesitation.
This was not because Ji Wuye wanted to give up Honglian. Rather, from the beginning to the end, he had never thought of letting Baiyue Tiantuan go.
Once Tianze successfully kills Prince Ying An of the Qin State envoy, the Baiyue Tiantuan will be doomed.
Chapter 61: Strength Exposed! Bai Yifei's Warning! Are You Qualified to Be Toyed With by Me?
After all, if after Ying An's death, Han State could not come up with a reason to resist Qin's invasion, the five states in Shandong would probably not be able to help Han State.
Only by killing the Baiyue group and blocking Qin's excuse to send troops, will the six countries have enough reasons to form an alliance to fight against Qin.
Especially since the assassination of the Qin prince by the Baiyue group happened during the reign of King Han An, this further aggravated the impression Ji Wuye made on the other five Shandong states when he seized the throne.
During the period when Qin was at its peak of power, no one among the five states in Shandong wanted the king of Han to be a weak person who constantly provoked others and gave Qin reasons to send troops.
Only he, Ji Wuye, is qualified to become the king of Korea!
As long as he could withstand the first wave of Qin's attack with the help of the five states of Shandong, then his succession to the throne of King Han would be a smooth journey.
Tianze is just a destined victim. Even if you agree to his conditions now, he will never get the day to fulfill his promise.
This was the real reason why Ji Wuye agreed to Tianze, not how much he valued Honglian.
"I hope the General can keep his promise!" Tianze sneered, "Otherwise, I will let the General know how terrifying it is to be a person with nothing and risk everything on one throw!"
"Hahaha..." Ji Wuye laughed loudly, "You have to believe that we have the same interests!"
"Goodbye!" Tianze looked at Ji Wuye without comment, and under the vigilant gazes of Bai Feng and Mo Ya, he strode out of the hall.
As he watched Tianze's figure disappear from his sight, the smile on Ji Wuye's face instantly disappeared.
Looking at Mo Ya and Bai Feng, his eyes suddenly showed a bit of murderous intent. Ji Wuye said, "I don't want anyone to hear what happened tonight. Also, you must find out as soon as possible who the guy who masters the illusion is!!"
"Follow orders!!"
Mo Ya and Bai Feng knelt down hurriedly to agree.
After leaving Ji Wuye’s hall.
Mo Ya felt like he had survived a disaster. He let out a long sigh and said with lingering fear, "It was really dangerous just now. We almost couldn't get out of the general's room alive!"
Bai Feng looked at Mo Ya in bewilderment, and asked in surprise, "Why do you say that? Tian Ze is very powerful, but if the two of us join forces, plus the general is here, he can't defeat both of us at the same time!!"
He looked at Bai Feng with a complicated expression for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "I really don't know, as a killer, you are so naive, is it a good thing or a bad thing?!"
"What do you mean?" Bai Feng was confused.
"Nothing!!" Mo Ya shook his head and finally gave up the idea of analyzing the reasons to Bai Feng.
In Mo Ya's opinion, the innocent Bai Feng only needed to be loyal to Ji Wuye. Otherwise, the more he knew and the more he thought about it, the harder it would be for him to maintain his current innocence.
Especially in front of a scheming person like Ji Wuye, once the slightest flaw is exposed, the consequences can be imagined.
Mo Ya believed that as long as he was still alive, even if Ji Wuye wanted to get rid of him, he would leave him enough room for maneuver. At worst, he should be able to save Bai Feng.
Seeing Bai Feng frown, as if about to ask further questions, Mo Ya changed the subject and said, "By the way, General, do you have any idea about the mission just now? How can we find this illusion master lurking in Xinzheng?"
When this matter was mentioned, Bai Feng immediately forgot his previous doubts. His face instantly became gloomy.
You know, his White Phoenix was snatched away by that hidden illusion master.
After a moment of contemplation, Bai Feng said, "I can try to find that guy through Bai Fenghuang!"
Ming Mingfeng made a very feasible suggestion.
But strangely, Mo Ya shook his head and directly denied it: "I know your relationship with that bird. But you'd better not use that bird to complete the general's mission so quickly! !
Bai Feng was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Why? This is obviously the fastest way to complete the general's mission. Why do you..."
"You don't understand what I mean." Mo Ya sighed and said earnestly, "You just need to know that I won't harm you! Also, I'm just saying, don't use that bird to complete the general's mission so quickly!!"
Now Bai Feng became even more confused.
At this moment, he was only facing Bai Feng. If it was anyone else, I'm afraid Mo Ya wouldn't have such kindness. After all, Mo Ya almost raised Bai Feng as his own son.
It can be said that Mo Ya placed many of his own obsessions on Bai Feng that he could not obtain.
On Mo Ya's side, he was giving Bai Feng some advice on how to survive longer under Ji Wuye's command.
In the general's mansion, in the main hall where Ji Wuye is.
The dim lights kept flickering.
A figure appeared in Ji Wuye's sight, as if crossing the space from the shadows.
As this figure appeared, a terrifying chill gradually spread throughout the hall.
"Can't you just appear normally every time?" Ji Wuye frowned and looked at the person who came.
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, the person hiding in the shadows finally walked under the light.
A man with white hair, wearing a scarlet robe and a black decoration on his cheek that looked like black branches, slowly came to Ji Wuye. Bai Yifei said in a deep voice: "General, you have crossed the line!!"
"What do you mean?" Ji Wuye's face darkened.
"The deposed crown prince of Baiyue is my tool!! I need them to tell Xinzheng who is the master here!!" Bai Yifei seemed to be explaining, but to Ji Wuye, these words sounded like a challenge to his authority.
"You mean, I'm not qualified to use your tools?" There was a hint of threat in Ji Wuye's tone.
