Chapter 58
As the Grand General of Han Guo, the defense of Xinzheng City and the Wang Cheng was all done by him.
Whether it was the Regarding Baiyue rebels setting fires in the city earlier or breaking into the palace repeatedly this time, Ji Ji Wuye could not escape the blame. At least, the charge of failing to guard could not be escaped.
Hearing the King of Han’s scolding, Ji Ji Wuye’s face was gloomy and ugly.
He did not expect that in such a short time, the King of Han would change, no longer favoring him as before, and actually dared to scold him directly.
Do you really think that because you are the King, you can insult me at will?
It seems you haven't realized how vulnerable your so-called royal power is in the face of real strength.
In the past, although Ji Ji Wuye realized that the King of Han was playing a balancing act, secretly supporting Zhang Kaidi, intending to confront him, he did not take it to heart, because in his view, so-called power schemes could not change the general trend at all.
What is the general trend?
That is his Night, which had already mastered Han Guo from the aspects of military, politics, finance, and intelligence.
He was the true master of this sky of Han Guo.
If he wanted to, the position of the King of Han could be changed at any time.
It was just because of various concerns, and the fact that Zhang Kaidi, supported by the King of Han, did not cause him too much trouble, so he didn't mind playing a game of power with the King of Han.
Until Jade Tiger was finished off.
Liu Yi was killed by someone.
The King of Han’s attitude toward him was not as reliant as before, and he even dared to scold him to his face.
Ji Ji Wuye’s inner thoughts also gradually changed.
After Bai Bai Yifei returned to the country, he even said a rebellious proposal in front of him, but after all, it hadn't reached that point yet, so Ji Ji Wuye had never made up his mind.
Now, as the King of Han scolded Ji Ji Wuye, the proposal about Bai Bai Yifei appeared in Ji Ji Wuye’s heart again.
Just thinking of Bai Bai Yifei.
After scolding Ji Ji Wuye, the King of Han scolded Bai Bai Yifei again.
That’s right, Bai Bai Yifei also participated in this court meeting.
When Yan Yan Lingji broke into the palace last night, Bai Bai Yifei did not participate in the court meeting. Tonight, Princess Honglian was abducted by Master Tian Ze, and the King of Han specially had someone call Bai Bai Yifei over.
As for whether Bai Bai Yifei, who was in Xueyi Castle, was asleep at this hour, the King of Han didn't care.
"Blood-Clad Marquis, you need to give me an explanation!"
Looking at the pale Bai Bai Yifei, the King of Han was blunt.
"In the battle of Regarding Baiyue, Master Tian Ze died at your hands. As a result, he is not dead now, and he even abducted Princess Princess Honglian. What do you have to say?"
Bai Bai Yifei lowered his head and gladly accepted the King of Han’s scolding, "This matter is indeed the negligence of this general. Your Majesty, please rest assured, this general will definitely bring Master Tian Ze and other rebels to justice!"
"Hmph! I hope you can do what you say."
The King of Han gave an order to Bai Bai Yifei, "You had better rescue Princess Honglian quickly. If Princess Honglian suffers any harm, I will hold you accountable!"
"Yes!"
After giving instructions to Bai Bai Yifei, the King of Han rambled on for a long time.
Only then did this temporarily convened court meeting end.
After the court meeting ended.
Bai Bai Yifei and Ji Ji Wuye left the palace together. Bai Bai Yifei did not return to his Xueyi Castle, but went straight to the Grand General’s mansion.
"Hmph! To dare to scold this general like this, it seems our King, because of someone recently, can no longer see reality clearly."
Returning to the General’s mansion, in front of Bai Bai Yifei, Ji Ji Wuye’s voice was cold.
Bai Bai Yifei’s expression was indifferent. Even though the King of Han had scolded him earlier, there was no anger on his face. Listening to Ji Ji Wuye’s words, he said calmly, "After all, he is a King, so it is only right that he has some depth."
"Zhang Kaidi knows the relationship between Jade Tiger and you, so he might not know. In the past, he seemed not to know, but it is very likely that he was pretending. Until he used the Ghost Soldier Pay Case to abolish Jade Tiger, he seemed to think he could take the opportunity to gradually dismantle your power and re-establish the majesty of a King!"
Bai Bai Yifei spoke slowly, and with every word he said, Ji Ji Wuye’s face grew gloomier.
Although a large part of this argument was Bai Bai Yifei’s speculation.
But Ji Ji Wuye felt that it was very likely true.
At least, from the fact that the King of Han could think of supporting the Prime Minister Zhang Kaidi to try to achieve a balance of power with him, it could be seen that the King of Han was not stupid, but the King of Han still underestimated him, or rather, overestimated Zhang Kaidi. Relying on Zhang Kaidi alone to confront him was simply a pipe dream.
The King of Han probably saw this too.
Therefore, after seeing the opportunity, he would not give him any chance to react and directly used the excuse of ghosts and gods to abolish Jade Tiger.
Even if he lost a Jade Tiger and a Liu Yi.
Ji Ji Wuye’s Night still shrouded Han Guo, but having lost two capable subordinates, one in the court and one in the field, Ji Ji Wuye still felt some heartache.
"Tell me, what are you going to do?"
Ji Ji Wuye looked at Bai Bai Yifei and asked in a deep voice.
"Is it by Master Tian Ze’s hand? Or?"
Once these words were spoken, it meant that Ji Ji Wuye had already agreed to Bai Bai Yifei’s rebellious proposal from earlier.
The main reason was that being scolded by the King of Han repeatedly had made Ji Ji Wuye deeply unhappy.
This time, Bai Bai Yifei released Master Tian Ze with the intention of making the King of Han feel fear, making the King of Han understand that although he was a King, there were still many people who could threaten him, so he had to rely on Ji Ji Wuye and others to deal with Master Tian Ze.
But things were gradually deviating from Ji Ji Wuye’s expectations.
First, Yan Yan Lingji, who broke into the palace, was captured by Su Xuan. The King of Han did not feel the so-called fear, and then there was the unexpected event of Master Tian Ze breaking into the palace and abducting Princess Princess Honglian.
Ji Ji Wuye and Bai Bai Yifei knew why Master Tian Ze abducted Princess Princess Honglian.
The general reason was what the King of Han had explained in the court earlier.
It was nothing more than Master Tian Ze failing to rescue Yan Yan Lingji and abducting Princess Princess Honglian to vent his anger.
But because it was Su Xuan who captured Yan Yan Lingji last night, and Su Xuan did not let Master Tian Ze rescue Yan Yan Lingji tonight, the King of Han could not blame Su Xuan excessively.
But the more this was the case, the more angry the King of Han would be, and then he would pour his anger onto Ji Ji Wuye and Bai Bai Yifei.
"That person is powerful, and even Master Tian Ze is not his match. If he stays by the King’s side, it is not a good thing for us." Bai Bai Yifei did not say how to deal with the King of Han, but shifted his tone and spoke of Su Xuan again.
"I heard that the man is proficient in alchemy, and the King is extremely dependent on his elixirs!"
"All medicines have three parts poison!"
"After this incident, Princess Princess Honglian was abducted, the King was enraged, which triggered the toxicity of the elixirs in his body, and he unfortunately passed away. The Crown Prince succeeded to the throne, first executed the treacherous people around the former King, then rescued Princess Princess Honglian, killed Master Tian Ze and other Regarding Baiyue rebels, and returned Han Guo to clarity. This is a wise monarch!"
