Qiang King would die suddenly.
Shen lang could basically confirm this.
!!
But when would King Qiang die?
Shen lang could not be sure.
Furthermore, could Shen lang tell the monarch about the sudden death of King Qiang?
Absolutely not!
Shen lang had to stay out of this.
Shen lang was an amazing doctor.
Medical skills could become a sharp weapon at a critical moment, treating some of the important figures in the royal family.
Therefore, killing and medical skills must be separated.
Shen lang, you can kill.
But he couldn’t kill people while he was treating them.
Otherwise, who among the future royal families would dare to let you treat them?
Furthermore, Shen Lang’s murder of Prince Qiang was a delayed murder. He died suddenly two months after his treatment.
If he told the monarch now, it would be great for the time being, and the monarch would be overjoyed.
However, the king would think that Shen lang was too scary.
If he could kill King Qiang with such a magical method today, what about tomorrow?
Even though others were suspicious, Shen lang could not get involved in this matter.
Furthermore, no one would suspect Shen lang.
There was a delayed kill.
For example, stupa mountain had poisoned goddess Xue Yin, and Jin Jun had poisoned Princess Ning Luo.
But that was a chronic poison.
Shen lang was definitely not the first person to react to the sudden death of King Qiang.
Instead, they would wonder if it was someone in Qiang country.
Whoever benefited the most from King Qiang’s death would probably be the biggest suspect.
…………………………
30,000 troops of Wu country were heading south and approaching Shangye city of Yue country.
Bian Xiao’s Army began to prepare for battle.
The North Garrison Liege, Nangong ao, led an Army of 40000 and approached Shangye city.
The armies of the two countries began to face each other.
The situation was tense!
The monarch still summoned Shen lang.
But when she saw him, she couldn’t help but get angry.
Didn’t she say that she would starve him for a few days?
Look at this Rascal’s glowing face, does he look like someone who has been hungry for a few days?
He was just short of burping.
When he opened his mouth, his teeth were white, and he didn’t look dirty at all.
Not only do you have food to eat in the cellar, but you can also take a bath and brush your teeth?
However, the king did not pursue these details.
Wu’s 30 thousand strong Army is heading south and approaching Shangye city. What do you think? ” Ning yuanxian asked.
“Who’s leading the troops?” Shen lang asked.
“The King of Wu,” ning yuanxian said.
Shen Lang’s expression changed when he heard that.
Such a big move?
If it was a scam, Wu Wang wouldn’t have needed to lead the Army.
“Do you think all of this is related to su Nan?” The monarch said.
Shen lang said, ” Your Majesty, if all of this is related to su Nan, the consequences will be shocking. Su Nan’s plan is very big.
The king nodded.
I hope King Wu is just young and impetuous, ” the monarch said. after winning the border gathering, he wants to take the opportunity to boost the morale of the country and increase the friction at the border.
“Your Majesty, we have to plan for the worst,” Shen lang said.
The monarch said,”the worst case scenario?” Then what do you think is the worst situation?”
Shen lang said,”the Chu army might be approaching the Western border of the Yue country to contain the Western Marquis Zhongyao’s Army.” The 30,000 strong Army of the Wu Kingdom was only the beginning. The King of Wu would continue to increase his troops and suppress the Army of Duke bianxiao and the North guarding Marquis. Then, King Qiang will charge into the Western Region as if he’s entering a no man’s land. Once that happens, Marquis su Nan will be able to ask for anything from His Majesty.”
The monarch’s face twitched.
He had also thought of this situation, but he hoped that it would not deteriorate to this point.
“When that time comes, you’ll be the first person su Nan will kill,” ning yuanxian said unhappily.
“Your Majesty, this is not the worst situation,” Shen lang said.
The monarch could not help but be stunned.
Shen lang said, ” su Nan is an old fox. He definitely did not plan this on the spur of the moment. He has planned this for a long time.
The king nodded.
Shen lang continued, ” he was almost certain that he would harm me this time. The defeat in he Qianqian’s case was completely out of his plan. In other words, he did not plan for this situation to be passive in the face of the Imperial court, but for an even greater and deeper scheme.”
The monarch’s face turned pale.
“You mean, the new change in Yan Zhou?”
Ning yuanxian was very smart, and he hit the nail on the head. Back then, Bian Xiao led an Army of 100000, and three counties betrayed Wu country and went south to Yue country. These three prefectures, together with the other prefectures that were ceded later, were called Yan Prefecture. That was why the change that happened 20 years ago was called the change of Yan Zhou.
Shen lang said, ” su Nan has been colluding with the Chu country for a long time. He continuously subsidized the Qiang country. On the other hand, the Chu country continuously subsidized the SU clan. Over the years, it’s an astronomical number of gold coins. Why is that?”
This had always been ning yuanxian’s greatest worry.
Therefore, he would rather let the Zhong family go and suppress the SU family.
The Zhong family had a deep blood feud with the Chu State, and it was something that couldn’t be resolved for generations. Therefore, the Zhong family would never seek refuge with the Chu State.
“Even so, the SU family’s territory doesn’t border Chu,” ning yuanxian said.”Even if they want to join Chu, it’s beyond their reach. Moreover, the Zhong clan’s Army of more than 100000 is to the North of su Nan. If the SU clan dares to betray us, Zhong Yao can go south and annihilate them at any time.”
the West Garrison Liege’s Zhongyao Army is separated from the SU clan’s territory by a mountain range, ” Shen lang said. even though they are close, it is not easy to destroy them.
“Even if it’s not easy to send troops, the White Night pass between the SU and Zhong clans will always be in our hands,” ning yuanxian said.
The White Night County, where the SU clan was located, was separated from the Zhong clan’s territory by a huge mountain range. However, a few generations ago, the king of Yue had paid a huge price to build a city Pass between this Valley. It was the White Night pass.
This City Pass was suspended above the SU clan’s head, and it could restrain both the Zhong clan and the SU clan at the same time.
The one currently guarding White Night pass was the Army of the Pingxi general, Zheng tuo, who was also the Father of Lady Jin Hui, Zheng Hongxian.
He was the king’s direct general and the second-in-command of the Western Army.
Shen lang said, ” Your Majesty, many of us have a misunderstanding. We think that the Qiang Kingdom is the Qiang Kingdom, and the SU clan is the SU clan. But at the crucial moment, what about Su Qiang as one? At that time, we will be directly connected to the Chu country.”
The monarch’s eyes shrank and he said,”King Qiang is so domineering, he’s definitely not willing to be under anyone.” Su Nan was cunning, so why would he be loyal to the Qiang King? The possibility of Su Qiang being one is not high.”
“Just in case, I feel that it is necessary to capture su Nan immediately, or at least put him under house arrest,” Shen lang said.
The king pondered for a long time and shook his head.
If they captured su Nan now, the situation would be turned upside down in an instant.
The consequences were too severe.
He needed time and a buffer.
“Men, order the black water station to double the number of people surrounding the Marquis Zhenyuan’s mansion!”
“No one from the Marquis Zhenyuan’s residence is allowed to leave the capital.”
“Yes!”
The king, ning yuanxian, had his own trump card.
He needed to wait for the confirmation from the Qiang Kingdom, to see if the Qiang King had decided to invade the Western Region.
He needed to confirm the information before deciding on his next step.
………………
A few days ago.
After the sudden death of the Qiang King, the entire upper echelons of the Qiang Kingdom were in chaos.
This was because there was a tradition in Qiang country, which was to kill one’s brothers after ascending to the throne.
This was what arugan, the king of Qiang, had done. After ascending to the throne, he had immediately killed all his brothers who had threatened him.
After King Qiang’s sudden death, his few capable sons were naturally afraid of suffering the tragedy of their fathers, so they immediately colluded with each other. They didn’t want to compete with alutai for the throne, but they wanted to at least protect themselves and fight for more benefits.
Therefore, the entire Qiang King Palace was in a state of chaos.
According to his imagination, no matter if it was the Crown Prince arutai or the other princes, the first thing they would do after seeing the sudden death of Qiang King arugan was to find out the cause of death.
However, this was not the case.
After the death of King Qiang, the few of them were the first to be completely shocked.
Then, they instantly entered an intense battle.
As for King Qiang’s corpse, it was thrown on the table and no one paid any attention to it.
Regardless of the corpse, he attacked!
This matter was the same in every dynasty and plane.
When the Duke Huan of Qi died, his five sons killed each other for the throne, leaving their father’s body on the bed.
After 67 days, one of his sons finally won the battle and became the new emperor of Qi state. The Duke Huan of Qi was buried. By then, his body had already rotted and maggots were crawling everywhere.
More than two hours after King Qiang’s death.
A black shadow secretly left the king’s palace and came to a haystack, learning a few sheep’s moans.
This person was one of the eunuchs that Qiang King trusted more.
Previously, Shen lang even suspected that King Qiang also used eunuchs.
He imitated the sound of a sheep’s cry several times.
After 15 minutes, a black shadow appeared.
“The palace is in chaos. What’s the matter?”
The eunuch beside King Qiang said, ” quick! Go to the capital as fast as you can. Report to the Governor that King Qiang has died suddenly. The Qiang Kingdom is in chaos.
Then, he quickly took out a piece of paper and handed it over.”This is the detailed information. It must be delivered to His Majesty.”
“Yes!”
The black shadow quickly disappeared.
Next, he would use all his strength to send this information back to the capital as quickly as possible.
This eunuch beside King Qiang was a spy for the black water terrace.
Of course, some people might ask, ” why didn’t this eunuch directly murder the Qiang King? ”
How was this possible?
Not everyone had Shen Lang’s abilities.
Furthermore, this eunuch was not the eunuch closest to King Qiang.
The eunuchs who were in charge of Qiang Wang’s food and drink were the eunuchs he had grown up with.
King Qiang was extremely suspicious, and only people like Shen lang and Daoist Zuo could succeed in their plot.
But even so …
The spies of the black water platform of Yue State were only two hours slower than su jianting and had already sent out the information.
……………………
Marquis Zhenyuan’s mansion.
Su Nan was in extreme pain and was extremely unwilling.
Why was it like this?
He was only one step away from success.
King Qiang deserved to die.
However, he could not die at this time.
This b * stard, this scoundrel, had extorted him, su Nan, for his entire life.
He should have been squeezed dry of his value before dying, so why did he die now?
Now, how was he going to continue with his scheme?
How was his su clan’s plan of Phoenix’s Nirvana to continue?
“Roar!”
Su Nan let out a series of angry roars.
His bent body instantly straightened.
He stomped his feet.
The hard ground was instantly shattered.
“Ah!!!!!!!!”
He let out a beast-like roar from his throat.
He clenched his fist and smashed it against the hard wall.
The wall that was made of huge rocks was actually smashed into one pit after another.
Crushed stones flew everywhere.
Su Nan’s martial arts skills were astonishing.
Was all his previous efforts going to waste just like that?
No!
Absolutely not!
Su Nan forced herself to calm down gradually.
“Activate!” He ordered.
“Yes,” Su Yong replied, startled.
He didn’t need to pass down orders.
Instead, he went up to a high platform in the Marquis Zhenyuan’s mansion and lit the candle inside.
………………
“Jia, Jia, Jia!”
The sound of hurried horse hooves rang out.
At this time, the city gate of the capital had already been closed.
“Who are you?”
The person immediately raised his token.
He raised the secret letter in his hand, attached to three crow feathers.
“Open the door, open the door!”
An order was given.
The city gate quickly opened to reveal a small gate.
Then, a new horse was immediately prepared inside the city gate.
After the warrior of the Blackwater tower rushed through the city gate, he jumped onto the new horse that had been prepared and continued to rush toward the castle of the Blackwater tower.
The horse that he was riding on fell to its knees and started frothing at the mouth.
After changing horses, he sped up and rushed to the castle of the black water terrace.
“Urgent, urgent!”
“Secret report from the West, urgent report from the West!”
Just as he reached the castle of the black water terrace, the warrior screamed.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Immediately, Four Masters of the Blackwater tower jumped down from the castle, lifted him up, and rushed into the castle.
After a while.
This spy knelt in front of the black water station’s Governor, mi ‘e.
Superintendent, King Qiang has died suddenly. There’s internal strife in the Qiang country.
The secret agent handed over the secret letter with both hands and then fainted.
“Order the best doctors to treat this brother at all costs. He must recover,” yan e was shocked.
“Yes!”
Before he could finish his sentence, yan E’s figure had already disappeared.
………………
The monarch had already fallen asleep.
Su Fei was supposed to be sleeping with him today, but he didn’t go. He still stayed in concubine Bian’s Palace.
However, he couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.
The worst scenario that Shen lang mentioned was too scary.
Another change in Yan Zhou?
It shouldn’t be possible, the SU clan and Chu country didn’t share a border.
Should they capture su Nan immediately?
No!
I can’t take it!
Otherwise, it would cause an earth-shattering change.
He had to confirm what the Qiang country was up to. Would King Qiang invade the Western border of Yue State?
And at this moment!
“Your Majesty, Governor Yan requests an audience.” Li sun’s voice rang out from outside.
As soon as he said this, the monarch got up from the bed almost immediately.
It had been a long time since the black Hades had left his black water tower castle.
Now that he was here, something big must have happened!
The monarch didn’t even have time to put on his clothes before he walked out.
The Blackwater station’s Governor-General yan e immediately knelt down and said, ” “Your Majesty, the king of Qiang has died, and there is internal strife in the Qiang country.”
Then, he handed over the detailed information with both hands.
The monarch was shocked at first.
Then, he was ecstatic!
Such a thing actually happened?
At this critical moment, there was actually such a shocking joy?
The heavens are actually protecting me, ning yuanxian?
The monarch opened the report and read it carefully.
Immediately after, the monarch’s suspicious nature flared up.
Could this information be fake?
Could it be that the spies of the Blackwater station were deceived?
“Your Majesty, I just received news that the high platform in the Zhenyuan Marquis’s mansion that had not been lit up suddenly lit up.”
The monarch’s expression changed at first, and then he became happy and asked, ” “Is su Nan still there?”
“Yes, he’s still in the yard, sitting there in a daze,” Li Sun replied.
“Take action immediately and capture su Nan,” the monarch said with a trembling voice.
don’t touch the other troops. Send out 3000 Warriors from the black water tower and surround the Marquis Zhenyuan’s mansion!
the four gates of the capital are tightly shut. No one is allowed to enter or leave. No one!
“Li Shan, yan e, you two take action personally and capture su Nan!”
“Yes!”
………………
Usually, when an Army was mobilized.
They were all thunderous, and the ground trembled.
Whether it was the tianyue cavalry or the king’s armored guards.
However, when the Warriors of the black water unit moved out, they were silent!
This was because they were wearing leather armor and soft-soled cloth shoes. They also walked with their forepaws to ensure that they would land without a sound.
Three thousand Warriors of the black water tower were dispatched.
Like a Dark Tide, they rushed towards the Marquis’s residence.
This was a big scene.
Previously, there were only 100 people who captured Shen lang.
The three thousand black water Warriors moved on the streets at a high speed, but they did not make any noise.
There were people on both sides of the street who were still awake. For some reason, they felt their hearts palpitate, so they opened their Windows to take a look.
He immediately saw that the streets were densely packed with Black Warriors.
He stared blankly, not daring to move.
At this moment, he only needed to move a little or shout, and he would die immediately.
After a while, the three thousand black water Warriors disappeared around the corner.
Half an hour later!
Three thousand Warriors of the Blackwater tower surrounded the manor of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
Great eunuch Li Sun let out a long sigh of relief.
The day had finally come.
“Is su Nan still there?” Li Sun asked.
“Yes, he’s in the courtyard.” A warrior of the Blackwater station who was monitoring them said, ” “He seemed to have sensed that something was wrong, so he played chess with himself first, but he couldn’t place a piece for a long time.”
“Go in and arrest them! Governor Yan, please!”
The governor of the black water tower, ku ‘e, was still expressionless. He even frowned.
“Bang!”
There was a loud bang.
The main gate of the Marquis Zhenyuan’s mansion was smashed open.
Then, the eunuch Li Shan followed yan e into the mansion of Marquis Zhenyuan.
He came to the courtyard.
Su Nan’s hunched body was still sitting there. He was staring at a chessboard in a daze.
“Although it’s summer, you shouldn’t sit outside. We’ll take you to another place,” Li Jing said.
“Eunuch li, where are you taking us?” su Nan’s aged voice asked.
“The black water terrace, the Supreme Court?” Li Jing asked. Why don’t you pick one, Marquis Zhenyuan?”
Su Nan raised his head and lit the candle. He said to Li Sun and chao e,”Eunuch Li, I don’t understand what you’re saying. Is it wrong for me to play chess in the yard?”
In the candlelight, his old face showed a strange smile to Li Sun and yan e.
Li Sun was shocked!
This old man looked exactly like su Nan.
However, he was not su Nan!
………………
[ Note: This is the third chapter. There are more than 20000 words today! ] It was as if he had finished his plea for votes. What should I do? Can you give it to me?
