Chapter 335: Won

~8 min read 1,563 words

Da Qian is not famous and not righteous, and still wants to use them as a knife. It is better for the Northern Frontier to stand on its own, which is more reliable.

Jiang Jinshi fell into deep thought. How does the current situation look like the Three Kingdoms?

It is conceivable that after the Northern Frontier matter spreads, it will be a mess, and all parties will inevitably have to make choices.

And the Northern Frontier is not "without a name for the teacher." Don't forget, this country was personally entrusted to him by Wei Xikang.

Wei Xikang is the Crown Prince of Da Qian and the successor appointed by the late Emperor. With Wei Xikang involved, who can say that the Northern Frontier is not orthodox?

It's just that Jiang Jinshi didn't play this card for the time being. On the one hand, he wanted to see the reactions of all parties, and on the other hand, Wei Xikang is living very well now, and he doesn't want to involve him in these whirlpools.

Seeing everyone still staring at him with burning eyes, Jiang Jinshi sighed: "Gentlemen, the time is not ripe now. We have to use the name of 'following heaven to crusade against thieves, clearing the side of the monarch, and correcting the court,' so naturally we cannot proclaim ourselves Emperor first!"

"Then we can only wait until we fight into Jingcheng before talking!" Luo Feng took over the conversation. When it comes to fighting, they have energy again.

However, this does not affect them calling Jiang Jinshi "Lord." In their view, this is a matter of time!

Jiang Jinshi finally didn't put on the dragon robe and proclaim himself Emperor, because it was not the right time now. Once he proclaimed himself Emperor here, and had the Jade Seal in his hand, the Western Liang King would really join forces with Da Qian to fight him.

Making enemies on all sides is not a proper move, and he has to look at the reactions of all parties next.

A few days later, the imperial envoy team, like a stray dog, fled the Northern Frontier in a panic and returned to Jingcheng.

In the Zichen Hall, when Vice Minister Zhou finished reporting his trip to the Northern Frontier with a bloodless face and incoherent speech, and tremblingly presented the white paper stamped with the bright red Imperial Jade Seal and written with rebellious words, the entire court was silent as death.

Wei Xi Yuan was first dazed, and when he understood that the paper said it was to "grant death" to himself, he was so scared that he jumped off the dragon chair, furious.

"Rebel! Completely rebel! Bold! Rampant! Execute his nine clans! No, ten clans! Send troops for me! Send troops to level the Northern Frontier! Grab the Jade Seal back for me!"

He was furious, thinking that the Imperial Jade Seal, which represented the mandate of heaven, was actually in Jiang Jinshi's hands? And was used by him to write this kind of thing? This made him feel more fear and humiliation than the Western Liang King's rebellion!

Si Gui stood at the head of the civil officials, his face gloomy.

He stared fixedly at the paper held up by the eunuch tremblingly, and for the first time felt that the seal of the Jade Seal was so ugly.

He calculated everything, he calculated that Jiang Jinshi might refuse the decree, might turn his face, and might even collude with Western Liang in secret.

But he never expected that the Imperial Jade Seal would fall into Jiang Jinshi's hands! And it was so openly shown!

This is not a simple resistance to the decree, this is flipping the table! It is directly denying the legitimacy of the current Emperor and even the entire Imperial Court! Jiang Jinshi not only refused to be recruited, refused to be a pawn, but also directly showed the "admission ticket" to compete for the world!

"The Jade Seal... actually in his hands..."

Si Gui's heart was ups and downs. What does this mean?

It means that Jiang Jinshi had long planned, and the plan was huge! It means that the nature of the Northern Frontier chaos has completely changed!

It is no longer a frontier problem, but a heart-and-belly problem for competing for the world! It also means that all his previous strategies have become a joke! Jiang Jinshi didn't eat this set at all, he held a bigger card in his hand!

"Your Majesty, calm down."

Si Gui forcibly suppressed the horror in his heart, stepped out and bowed: "The rebel is rampant and deserves to die, so he should be wiped out by thunder! The Northern Frontier rebel is a heart-and-belly problem!"

"However, he holds the Jade Seal and occupies the name of righteousness. If this matter is spread, it may shake the foundation of the country and confuse people's hearts. The top priority is, first, to block the news immediately and strictly forbid the spread of such rebellious words."

"Second, immediately mobilize heavy troops to wipe out the Northern Frontier rebels with thunderous momentum and take back the Imperial Jade Seal! The Western Liang problem can be temporarily defended, and the Northern Frontier should be eliminated first!"

At this moment, Si Gui had no intention of using Jiang Jinshi to deal with Western Liang.

The Northern Frontier has the Jade Seal, and its threat level instantly exceeded Western Liang! It must be extinguished at all costs and at the fastest speed!

Otherwise, those in the world who cherish the previous dynasty or have different ambitions will inevitably flock to it, and the consequences will be unimaginable!

More importantly, they will be pushed to the forefront of the storm!

Yan Chonggu stood in the queue, lowering his eyes, covering the deep shock and consideration in his eyes.

The Jade Seal! Jiang Jinshi actually has the Jade Seal!

Yan Family's previous judgment still underestimated this person's ambition and foundation!

Fortunately, the Yan Family still has a chance...

Cooperating with a master of one side who holds the Jade Seal and openly raises the banner of "following heaven to crusade against thieves," and cooperating with an ordinary frontier powerhouse, are two completely different concepts!

The risk is greater, but the potential return...

It may also be a change of heaven and earth!

Based on his experience, the luck of Da Qian is now exhausted, and even Si Gui, the Chancellor, is afraid that he won't be able to be a Chancellor for long.

He decided to immediately send the most reliable people with the latest instructions and bigger chips!

The Northern Frontier must become the Yan Family's most important "investment," even if they go all out!

And other court officials were mostly in shock and daze at this moment.

The Jade Seal appeared in the Northern Frontier? Jiang Jinshi wants to "grant death" to the Emperor and Chancellor? Also want to "clear the side of the monarch"? This... is the sky falling?

The news, after all, cannot be blocked.

Especially when Jiang Jinshi intends to spread this matter, and there is a hidden push behind it, Si Gui's idea of blocking the news is useless.

Within a few days, through various secret channels, the news that "Northern Frontier Prince Ming Jiang Jinshi holds the Imperial Jade Seal, reprimands the puppet emperor for being unrighteous, treacherous ministers are in power, and wants to follow heaven to crusade against thieves" spread rapidly to Jiangnan, the Central Plains, and even Western Liang!

The world is shaken!

Yangzhou, Cui Residence.

Cui Wangshu looked at the secret report in her hand and was speechless for a long time. She guessed that Jiang Jinshi would be tough, and even guessed that he might refuse the princedom and break with the Imperial Court.

But she never expected that the way of breaking would be so intense, and the hole card revealed would be so amazing!

"The Jade Seal... following heaven to crusade against thieves..."

Cui Wangshu knew that she had bet on the right treasure, but this treasure... now seems a bit hot!

Cooperating with "Prince Ming" who holds the Jade Seal and openly rebels, the Cui Family will be completely tied to the chariot, and there is no way back!

But similarly, if Jiang Jinshi eventually succeeds... what kind of merit will the Cui Family get?

Risk and opportunity have never been placed in front of her so clearly.

She took a deep breath and wrote quickly, the content was only one sentence: "Use everything, bet on the Northern Frontier. At any cost, exchange for the future."

But she also understood one thing in her heart, that is, her previous secret investment in Jiang Jinshi could definitely not be hidden.

With such big news, the Cui Clan would definitely investigate after knowing it, and then it would not be difficult to find that she had been in contact with the other party.

So next, will the Cui Clan oppose her contact with the Northern Frontier, or will they join in and use her as a link?

Western Liang, Si Wushuang stood beside the Western Liang King, and couldn't help but be a little surprised after hearing the news.

"This move is wonderful! It seems that my father won't be able to jump for long!" ===== CHAPTER 336 =====
