Chapter 40 Saving people from danger
In the palace, after the clever Concubine Jing suspected Xiaoxin's identity, she also devised a clever plan to plot against Queen Yan and prepare to assist Prince Jing.
At the same time, Mei Changsu also took advantage of the end of the year to go to Yanhou's house and ask Yanhou for his help in rescuing Wei Zheng. When he learned that Prince Jing and Mei Changsu knew that they could not do anything about Wei Zheng, they did so.
Deeply moved, Yan Hou and Yan Yujin, father and son, expressed their willingness to help.
Everything was almost ready, and the people who really came to rescue Wei Zheng were naturally the elites of the Jiangzuo Alliance and the experts brought over by the Su Lao Valley Master.
At the same time, in order to help Prince Jing get rid of the suspicion of being the mastermind behind the scenes, this operation also needed to use the name of Yaowang Valley. If there was an accident and someone was caught, the person from Yaowang Valley would also be killed.
Of course, these are just in case arrangements. Mei Changsu's planning was precise, and Zhou You also put forward some additional suggestions, so basically there will be no surprises.
The time of the operation was determined to be the fifth day of the first lunar month. Early in the morning, Fei Liu quietly entered Yanhou's house and brought a letter to Yan Yujin who was still sleeping in bed, asking him to try to take Prince Ji to Gong Yu.
's residence.
Later, Yanhou also received a notice from Mei Changsu, asking him to ask Xia Jiang to watch the Hanzhong in the western suburbs outside the city for a while, and to delay him for a while.
On the early morning of the fifth day of the lunar month, Xia Dong went out of the city to 'pay homage' to Nie Feng as in previous years. At the same time, in order to distract his brother Xia Qiu, he asked him to help him arrest the suspect, and left the Xuanjing Division with him.
With Xia Jiang's cunning and cunning, he naturally expected that someone would rob the prison today, and also made some arrangements. However, he did not know that his arrangements were all expected by Mei Changsu and Zhou You. If not, he would think that he was very smart.
According to the arrangement, it is not that easy to rescue Wei Zheng!
Xia Jiang, who met Yanhou, confirmed that Prince Jing was indeed going to the Xuanjing Division to rescue Wei Zheng today, but he did not panic at all, because he had already set a trap and transferred Wei Zheng to Dali Temple for detention.
The dungeon of the Xuanjing Division is filled with fire mines. As long as there is a trace of wire, the bodies of those who rush in to save people will be wiped out.
All of this was naturally expected by Mei Changsu. Just like Xia Jiang knew Prince Jing, Mei Changsu knew Xia Jiang too well. Naturally, he knew that Xia Jiang was not easy to deceive, and he also knew that Xia Jiang was very thoughtful, just in case.
, I am afraid that Wei Zheng will not really be left in the dungeon of Xuanjing Division.
So Mei Changsu, Zhou You and the others used a trick to make Xia Jiang think he had succeeded. When Xia Jiang realized something was wrong and rushed back to the Xuanjing Division, he learned that the people who came to rescue Wei Zheng rushed to the entrance of the Xuanjing Division dungeon but then retreated.
After doing this, he immediately realized that he might have fallen into the trap of making false claims to the east and attacking the west. Prince Jing and the others probably knew the real place where Wei Zheng was being imprisoned.
What a pity! Xia Jiang was still smart this time. When he hurried to the Dali Temple prison, he realized that he had fallen into the trap and became the guide, leading Zhou You and Zhen Ping, who were secretly following him, to Dali Temple.
Caught off guard, both masters and apprentices Xia Jiang and Xia Chun were injured, while Zhou You and Zhen Ping also successfully broke into the Dali Temple prison and rescued Wei Zheng.
However, successfully rescuing Wei Zheng does not mean that the matter is over. Because no matter who rescues Wei Zheng, Prince Jing will be the first to be suspected by Emperor Liang. Prince Jing and Mei Changsu's battle with Xia Jiang has not yet begun
It’s over! The fun really begins!
When King Jing was urgently recruited into the palace by Emperor Liang, King Ji and Yan Yujin were discussing music at Gong Yu's residence, but they were led by Gong Yu to see Xia Dong appearing in an alley with a seriously injured man.
In the palace, facing Emperor Liang's questioning and Xia Jiang's pressing step by step, Prince Jing was calm and answered fluently. However, facing some of Prince Jing's rhetorical questions, Xia Jiang found it difficult to explain.
At the same time, Empress Yan sent someone to say that Concubine Jing had acted rebelliously in her palace and asked the emperor to deal with it. Unexpectedly, the so-called rebellious matter was that Concubine Jing secretly set up the palace of the late King Qi's biological mother, Chen.
This matter was arranged by Emperor Liang for Concubine Jing, and only he and Concubine Jing knew about it.
Emperor Liang, who was originally angry, calmed down and realized that Prince Jing and Concubine Jing were blamed at the same time. This was unusual and a coincidence.
Emperor Liang did not deal with Concubine Jing harshly, but instead ordered the execution of Xiaoxin who secretly reported the news to the Queen. This abnormal behavior made Queen Deyan full of doubts and puzzled.
After calming down, Emperor Liang returned to the main hall and softened his attitude towards Prince Jing, asking Prince Jing to stand up and reply.
Next, Prince Jing and Xia Jiang continued to confront each other, and Xia Jiang was speechless after a series of rhetorical questions. Seeing that words could not help Prince Jing, Xia Jiang asked for an order to interrogate Mei Changsu.
Mei Changsu, who had also expected this, was also the one who dismissed Su Zhai and was quietly waiting for Xia Jiang's arrival in the mansion.
To deal with Xia Jiang, Mei Changsu had to risk his own life this time. He wanted to overthrow Xia Jiang with his own hands. After all, Xia Jiang was the culprit who framed the Red Flame Army for rebellion and killed King Qi.
Mei Changsu planned hard. In addition to ultimately rehabilitating King Qi and the Red Flame Army, what he wanted to do most was to make Xia Jiang and Xie Yu pay the price for what they had done.
On the second day after Mei Changsu was captured into the Xuanjing Division, in the teahouse on the street closest to the Xuanjing Division, Zhou You and Zhen Ping were sitting opposite each other on the second floor by the window. Zhen Ping frowned and looked at
Zhou You: "What do you want to do? Do you want to enter the Xuanjing Division alone to save the sect leader?"
"At the very least, I want to ensure the safety of the sect master! Zhen Ping, you can go and do the things assigned to you by the sect master first, and leave it to me to keep an eye on you," Zhou You continued.
"The sect master will be left to you, so be careful!" Zhen Ping, who was slightly silent after hearing this, gave a stern warning before getting up and preparing to leave.
Before Zhen Ping left, Zhou You also quickly reminded: "You should also be careful on the other side of Tong Road. Since his life is not in danger now, there is no need to rush to save him for the time being, so as not to alert the snake and cause a fight between King Yu and Qin Banrui.
alert."
"Don't worry!" Zhen Ping nodded, then turned around and went downstairs, quickly leaving the teahouse.
Another day later, Xia Jiang finally interrogated Mei Changsu in a pavilion in the courtyard of the Xuanjing Division. Xia Dong, who had been secretly watching them, quickly passed the news to Zhou You.
In the Xuanjing Division, when Mei Changsu and Xia Jiang were exchanging words, Yan Yujin also came to Prince Ji's Mansion and showed Prince Ji the notice of wanted Wei Zheng. Prince Ji was shocked when he saw it. This was not the case that day.
Is Xia Dong the prisoner who was taken away in the alley?
Thinking of King Jing's situation at this time, although King Ji was not involved in the court situation, he felt that he should tell Emperor Liang what he had seen with his own eyes, so he quickly entered the palace.
At the same time, in the Xuanjing Division, Mei Changsu also pointed out that Xia Jiang planned to deal with Prince Jing because he was afraid of Prince Jing. He was afraid of Prince Jing, just like he was afraid of Prince Qi.
Mei Changsu pointed out that Xia Jiang had killed King Qi and caused the 70,000 Red Flame Army to die unjustly in Meiling. Xia Jiang immediately became angry and picked up the poisonous Wu Jindan from the Xuanjing Division on the table and was about to stuff it into Mei Changsu.
From Su's mouth...
Chi... At this moment, Zhou You suddenly appeared, his figure was as fast as a ghost, and a sharp sword light went towards Xia Jiang. Xia Jiang was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated to dodge, his sleeves and robes were torn open, and his arms were almost injured by Zhou You.
