The third year of Emperor Yinzong’s reign, the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month, was Little New Year!
"Traitors, traitors, all of them are traitors!"
Inside the Golden Palace, Li Yin's eyes were red. The ministers who had been talking loudly now knelt on the ground in fear, not even one daring to look up at Li Yin...
"Well, General Lin, my father-in-law, I entrusted him with an important task, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops to quell the rebellion, but what happened next... He actually colluded with that traitor, the King of Qi, and murdered hundreds of thousands of my best soldiers and generals!"
"Really, what a good father-in-law!"
"And you, are you really my good subjects?"
"How many of you have connections with the King of Qi... no, the State of Jin?"
The angry Li Yin roared continuously like a wounded lion.
Just now, the Ministry of War received an extremely shocking piece of news. General Lin Yong surrendered to the enemy with part of his own troops, and the remaining hundreds of thousands of soldiers were killed on the spot by him and the King of Qi!
That was an imperial army of hundreds of thousands, the cream of the crop of the entire Great Zhou military, and yet they were all wiped out in one day!
Afterwards, the King of Qi changed his title from King of Qi to King of Jin, and rebuilt the State of Jin, while Lin Yong became the general of the State of Jin!
Even Shu became a source of Lin Yong's advancement and became the territory of Jin...
Now, the King of Jin has connected Jinzhou, Daizhou, Shuzhou and other places together, and his territory has almost occupied one-third of the entire area!
This is no longer a minor illness, but a serious problem!
If things go wrong, the Great Zhou might even be destroyed!
"Your Highness dare not!"
Suddenly, all the ministers said in unison.
joke……
Anyone who dares to be labeled as such is not only risking their own life, but also the lives of their entire clan...
"Don't dare? Don't dare? I think you dare!"
"Where is Liu Wenzhong, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of War?" Li Yin asked angrily.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is here..." Liu Wenzhong stepped out and said.
"Are you a loyal minister?" Li Yin asked.
"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you and to the Great Zhou. I have no regrets!"
Liu Wenzhong's heart skipped a beat, but he reacted quickly.
"You have no shame? Haha, you have no shame? Look, what is this!"
Li Yin said this with a smile on his face as he threw a secret letter in front of Liu Wenzhong...
The trembling Liu Wenzhong collapsed to the ground the moment he saw the secret letter...
"You colluded with the State of Jin and betrayed the military deployment of the Great Zhou. Your crime is unforgivable!"
"Someone come!" Li Yin's voice almost froze the entire hall...
"exist!"
Immediately, two guards came forward.
"Take Liu Wenzhong down and exterminate his entire clan!" Li Yin said hatefully.
Suddenly, the hearts of all the ministers in the court seemed to be tugged at by something, especially those ministers who had correspondence with the State of Jin...
Exterminate ten clans!
This is unprecedented...
Under normal circumstances, the crime of treason is just the execution of nine generations of the clan!
But now, Liu Wenzhong and his ten clans were killed, which shows how angry Emperor Yinzong was at this moment!
"Your Majesty, Lin Yong rebelled, but his daughter Lin Wan'er is still the queen and in charge of the harem. Is this inappropriate?" Du Qian, the Left Censor-in-Chief, stepped forward and said.
"Shut up, it's none of your business to interfere in the affairs of my harem!" Li Yin said angrily.
Doesn't he want to?
Lin Yong has betrayed us!
What reason does he have to spoil Lin Wan'er?
But the key is...
Yesterday, Lin Wan'er said that she missed home and wanted to take her daughter home quietly to see her family to express her longing!
At that time, the news of Lin Yong's rebellion had not yet arrived...
But who knew... that it would never come back...
Damn it!
Lin Wan'er and Lin Yong must have communicated with each other beforehand, otherwise, how could such a coincidence be possible?
But this kind of thing...
Li Yan was too embarrassed to speak, and had no way to explain...
I can only grit my teeth and swallow it...
No. 211, Huayuan Road, Nancheng District, Beijing!
This is the temporary residence Chen Changsheng prepared for Lin Wan'er!
Otherwise, why do people say that human hearts are hard to predict?
It can be said that Li Yan was tricked by everyone working together...
Lin Yong's rebellion and surrender to Li Ke was a highly confidential matter, so how could it be leaked to Lin Wan'er in advance?
In fact, Lin Yong's rebellion was premeditated. Lin Wan'er had long been abandoned by Lin Yong. She had no idea that her father had already abandoned her!
But King Jin Li Ke was a man of great ambition. When Di Ting evacuated, many hidden players were left behind.
Chen Changsheng's whereabouts could be discovered by Li Yin and also by those who listened carefully!
Li Ke would certainly not give up on winning over such a great master.
You know, the Great Zhou is the orthodox one after all, and even though he and Lin Yong killed hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of the Great Zhou, the Great Zhou court still controls most of the territory and still holds a positive advantage. Moreover, as a prince, Li Ke knows very well that the Great Zhou court has a profound foundation and many masters. It is not so easy to succeed in a rebellion!
So, Li Ke's Di Ting secretly contacted Chen Changsheng...
Originally, Chen Changsheng didn't want to obey Li Yin, so he naturally disdained Li Ke's attempts to win him over!
But Li Ke holds the secret of the monster on the last level of the prison, which makes Chen Changsheng a little unsure. So the two reach a cooperation. Chen Changsheng can help Li Ke twice, and Li Ke will exchange the secret of the monster!
Chen Changsheng's idea was to get something for nothing, just like he had done to Li Yin, then the Crown Prince. However, Li Ke was much more astute. He even knew that Chen Changsheng hadn't done the three things he had promised Li Yin. He insisted on doing the things first and then delivering the secrets...
"This Li Ke is even more secretive than Li Yin... How did he know such a confidential matter?"
There was no other way, so Chen Changsheng could only agree to it...
Just the day before yesterday, Chen Changsheng received the first secret order, to bring Queen Lin Wan'er out of the palace safely before sunrise today!
