Tomin in The Alien World - V3.Chapter 141

In the early days of this day, as always, some ministers stood up to Tang Yin to persuade him to advance, moved with emotion, told with reason, and talked bluntly. However, no matter how eloquent the ministers were, Tang Yin’s attitude was very firm, but he refused.

After dispersing the dynasty, Shangguan Yuanji didn’t leave immediately and made a special trip to find Tang Yin. The latter met him in the study and saw Shangguan Yuanji come in. Tang Yin asked with a smile, “Yuanji, what’s up?”

“The minister thought that the king should be neutral in the court and make a rule. Whoever dares to persuade the king to do great evil should be severely punished!” Shangguan Yuanji bowed and said positively.

Tang Yin is happy, say: “Yuanji, don’t worry. I don’t want to usurp the throne. Even if all the ministers persuade me together, I won’t change my decision. It’s not necessary to set rules to seal people’s mouth. As the saying goes, preventing people’s mouth is better than preventing Sichuan. Let’s say what we want to say. If we hold it in our stomach, it’s easy to have an accident. Besides, I also want to know what we have in mind Ideas. ”

Shangguan Yuanji frowned and said, “it’s contempt for the emperor to openly persuade him to advance. It’s clear that he is not willing to surrender. If the king tolerates it again and again, it will only increase the ambition of those disorderly officials and thieves!”

Tang Yin was very unhappy when he heard this. First, he didn’t like others to tell him how to do things in front of him. Second, although he didn’t have the heart to usurp the throne, it didn’t mean that he agreed with Yan Zhun. Shangguan Yuanji spoke to Yan Zhun again and again, and his words and deeds were really super.

He took a deep breath, bowed his head, picked up a memo and said absently, “I’ve understood what you mean. If there’s nothing else, go back first!”

“King…” didn’t get a satisfactory reply. Shangguan Yuanji didn’t want to go. However, seeing that Tang Yin was tired, he sighed secretly, and finally bowed his hand and said, “yes, king, I’m leaving.”

“Yes.” Tang Yin didn’t lift his head, but answered faintly.

Shangguan Yuanji withdrew from his study. Although he failed to achieve his goal this time, he would not give up and decided to continue to persuade the king tomorrow. In any case, the persuasion of the ministers living in the middle of the court should be prohibited.

The king has no intention of usurping the throne now, but he can’t stand these sycophants talking in his ears all the time. What if one day the king is really bewitched by them?

As soon as he got out of the palace, someone said, “how did the Prime Minister of the upper official come out? Let the lower official wait!”

Shangguan Yuanji turned his head and saw Zhang Xin coming with a smile on his face. “Oh? Lord Zhang, are you here to wait for the truth?”

“Exactly.” “I don’t know what Lord Zhang said?” Shangguan Yuanji is quite baffled. He doesn’t have much contact with Zhang Xin on weekdays, and there are few contacts between him. I don’t know how Zhang Xin suddenly found himself today.

Zhang Xin, pretending to be mysterious, pulled Shangguan Yuanji aside and asked in a low voice, “the Prime Minister of Shangguan just went to see the king for the sake of your adults’ persuasion?”

Shangguan Yuanji turned his mind, didn’t answer directly, and asked quietly, “what’s Lord Zhang’s opinion on this matter?”

“Hehe, I can’t talk about my high opinion. However, the idea of the lower official is the same as that of the Prime Minister of the upper official.”

“Oh?” Zhang Xin’s words surprised Shangguan Yuanji. He thought all the ministers in the court wanted the king to usurp the throne. He was the only one who was struggling to defend the imperial court. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xin would stand on his side.

Zhang Xin said positively: “Killing the king and usurping the throne has been a treacherous act since ancient times. Even if you are lucky to succeed, you will leave a reputation for thousands of years. King Wen Chengwu’s virtue, ending the disputes among countries and unifying the world, can be described as an unparalleled feat. How can you destroy the King’s wisdom? Therefore, my lower official thinks that the king can never usurp the throne. Those who persuade you should do it only for their own personal interests It is abominable to destroy the king’s reputation! ”

None of what he said was to preserve the imperial court and support Yin Zhun. To put it bluntly, it was to take into account Tang Yin’s reputation. Of course, no matter what his reason, in short, he opposed Tang Yin’s usurpation, which was consistent with the principle of Shangguan Yuanji.

Shangguan Yuanji was secretly pleased that Zhang Xin was on his side. He would have more capital to persuade the king himself.

Seeing the light of joy flickering subconsciously in his eyes, Zhang Xin hurriedly said, “it’s almost noon now, Prime Minister. Why don’t we find a quiet and elegant place and talk while eating.”

This is exactly what Guan Yuanji wanted. He nodded with a smile and said, “OK, does Lord Zhang have a suitable place to go?”

Zhang Xin pretended to think about it, his eyes lit up fiercely, and said, “a new restaurant has been opened in the east of the city. Although the corner is a little remote, the environment is really elegant and quiet. Why don’t we go there!”

Shangguan Yuanji didn’t even think about it. He nodded and replied, “OK! In the opinion of Lord Zhang!”

Zhang Xin smiled happily, waved his hand and said, “please, Prime Minister!” “Please, Lord Zhang!”

Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin took carriages to the newly opened restaurant in the east of the city. As a result, Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin were attacked by assassins in this restaurant.

The assassin seemed to have known that Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin would go there. He ambushed nearby, not only one wave of ambush, but also several waves of ambush. Ambushes inside and outside the restaurant do not count. Ambushes are also set up on the road from the restaurant to the outside world.

If the assassins who assassinated in the restaurant did not succeed and startled Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin, they will be ambushed by the second wave, the third wave or even more assassins on their way out.

It can be said that the assassin’s plan for this assassination is flawless, just like arranging the next dragnet, which is to kill them both.

However, people are not as good as heaven. When the assassin killed Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin in the restaurant and formed a group with their guards, Lei Zhen of Duwei camp happened to pass by nearby.

Hearing the sound of fighting in the restaurant, Lei Zhen took people to the scene at the first time. Seeing that assassins assassinated Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin, Lei Zhen was confused and took his subordinates to try their best to rescue.

Fortunately, Lei Zhen arrived in time and pulled Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin, whose lives were on the line, back from the ghost gate. However, both of them were injured. Zhang Xin was slightly injured and only injured his arms, shoulders, legs and other insignificant places.

Shangguan Yuanji’s injury was much more serious. A big bone deep hole was cut in his back. The heaviest was the sword that ran through his left chest. If the sword was half a point further, it could penetrate his heart. It can be seen that the assassin was really killed.

Soon after the thunder shock arrived, the people of Duwei camp came to hear the news. All the soldiers in the Duwei camp are carefully selected. Most of them are from Lingwu College of Fengguo, and all of them are excellent in Lingwu.

Seeing that the situation was bad, the assassins did not dare to fight, and immediately dispersed and fled.

Lei Zhen ordered his subordinates to catch the assassin and informed the Lieutenant’s house and the soldiers guarding the city. On the other hand, he sent someone to escort the seriously injured captain Yuanji back to the prime minister’s house for first aid.

Shangguan Yuanji, the right prime minister, was assassinated together with Zhang Xin, the internal history of millet treatment, and both were injured. This is no small matter. After receiving the news, the soldiers guarding the city closed the gate of Shangjing for the first time and blocked the access of the whole city.

The Lieutenant’s office also sent all the officers and troops to assist the Duwei camp to track down the assassins. For a time, the chickens and dogs jumped in the capital. The situation was tense. Groups of soldiers could be seen running through the streets and alleys.

Of course Tang Yin heard of such a big thing. He was about to leave the palace to visit the seriously injured Shangguan Yuanji. At this time, Zhang Xin came. Zhang Xin was helped by a servant, with bandages wrapped around his arms and legs, pale and blue lips.

Seeing Zhang Xin’s appearance, Tang Yin couldn’t help frowning. She stepped forward quickly and asked with concern, “Zhang Xin, how are you hurt? Why don’t you rest in your house and why do you come to the palace?”

“Weichen… Weichen is here to plead with the king…” Zhang Xin said weakly.

“What are you guilty of?” Tang Yin looked at him puzzled.

“If it hadn’t been for… If I hadn’t invited Youxiang… To the restaurant for dinner… I wouldn’t have met an assassin… If… If Youxiang has a weakness… Weichen… How can I be worthy of Youxiang…”

At this point, Zhang Xin burst into tears and cried bitterly.

Alas! Tang Yin sighed and said, “Zhang Xin, you go back and have a good recovery. Auspicious people have their own direction. I think Yuanji will be fine!”

“King…” “go back!” Tang Yin nodded at Zhang Xin and then said to ah Si behind him, “ah Si, you can take someone to escort Lord Zhang back to the house. In any case, you can’t have an accident for me, okay?”

“Yes! King!” Ah Si promised, and then called the bodyguard to protect Zhang Xin back to Zhang’s house.

Tang Yin himself hurried to the prime minister’s house to visit Shangguan Yuanji, and took all his royal doctors with him. On the way, Tang Yin asked Lei Zhen what was going on.

Shangguan Yuanji and Zhang Xin, both of whom are top-ranking officials and important officials in the imperial court. There are many guards around them, including some outstanding first-class experts. How could they be hurt by the assassin?

Lei Zhen frowned and said, “Your Majesty, the assassins who assassinated Youxiang and Lord Zhang this time are not only smart and powerful, but also a large number of people. The deaths and injuries of Youxiang and Lord Zhang’s subordinates add up to more than 30 people. In addition, the assassins have fast training and are obviously good at it.”

“Have you caught anyone alive?”

“My subordinates have captured three people, but…”

“They all poisoned themselves?” Tang Yin asked with deep eyes.

“Exactly! The assassins sealed the wax with poison and put it in their mouth in advance. Once captured, they will bite the wax skin and die on the spot. There is no medicine to solve it.”

Lei Zhen sighed: “the assassins who assassinated Youxiang and Lord Zhang this time are dead men. There’s one more thing…” at this point, he suddenly stopped.

Tang Yin asked suspiciously, “what else?”

“This… Subordinates dare not make a hasty conclusion. They have to investigate again.” Lei Zhen swallowed the words in his heart again.

Tang Yin gave him a white look and said in a deep voice, “if you have anything, just say it. Don’t just say half. It’s tempting for me!”
