Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 328 Entering the Imperial City of the Western Regions

Situ Jing couldn't help but think highly of the young man in front of him. Although he was young, he knew how to assess the situation.

"The situation is not good for us either. There are 100,000 soldiers and horses in the border town now, but we only have 50,000 soldiers and horses in hand, plus the regent's soldiers and horses. Our chances of winning are not great!"

The League of Gentlemen said without any hesitation: "In the battle in the north, Bei Liao had the right time and place, but the King of Jin was able to turn defeat into victory and destroy Bei Liao. Now Bei Liao has become a tributary of Xia Zhao State, and Bei Liao borders the Western Region. If Send troops from the Northern Liao Dynasty. The terrain of the Western Region is flat and there are no natural dangers to defend. If Xia Zhaoguo invades the Western Region directly from the Northern Liao territory, he can easily pass through the Western Region and directly reach the rear of the regent. If he gets the news then, he will definitely be in chaos."

Situ Jin raised his eyebrows.

"Aren't you afraid that after my king's troops enter the Western Region, instead of helping you seize the throne, they will take this as an opportunity to directly attack the Western Region and make the Western Region a vassal state of Xia Zhaoguo like Bei Liao!"

The League of Gentlemen raised his eyes and smiled: "If the prince really wanted to seize the Western Region, he could have captured it directly when the Northern Liao Dynasty was destroyed. Why wait until I come to ask for help! What's more, Xia Zhaoguo's vitality was severely damaged after the battle in the Northern Liao Dynasty. At this moment We need to recuperate, and the prince must also want to end this border crisis at the lowest cost."

Situ Jin did not expect that this prince, who seemed to have no sense of existence, could see the current situation so clearly!

"If you want me to help you, it's not impossible. You must have been hiding in the border town for many days, and you should also know what happened during these days. Zhou Wei gave all the proceeds from the gold mine to the regent. If I help you kill the regent, , all the property in the Regent's Palace must belong to us, if you agree to this, I will help you!"

The League of Gentlemen was shocked. King Jin looked at the problem from a novel perspective. He actually thought about the properties in the Regent's palace.

That's right, why should someone else's gold mine be put into the enemy's pocket for no reason? Since he wants someone else's help, he must make sacrifices.

He thought for a moment and said: "Okay! As long as the prince helps me get the throne, I will immediately order the troops to withdraw and never interfere in the affairs of the border town. In the future, the border can also open trade exchanges, and our two countries can share prosperity!"

A few people discussed it and soon decided to go through the desert to the Imperial City of the Western Regions the next day. As the League of Gentlemen said, although the desert seems boundless, if someone acts as a guide and brings enough water and dry food, it will be better. Going directly from the border will shorten the journey by half.

Ever since he arrived at the Imperial City in the Western Region, Gentlemen Alliance's face had become serious. He especially remembered how embarrassed and unbearable he was when he fled the Imperial City. Now that he has returned here again, he has more confidence. At least he is no longer alone.

Before his death, his father left all the secret guards to him. If it weren't for these secret guards protecting him, he might not be able to escape from the imperial city.

A few people found an inn to rest, and Situ Jin looked at the League of Gentlemen.

"Tell us about the current situation in the Western Region Court! If we want to enter the palace and find the imperial edict, who can arrange for us to enter?"

The League of Gentlemen lowered their eyes.

"Prime Minister Zhang is the prince's father-in-law. After the death of his father, he strongly opposed the regent's occupation of the court. However, the prince was still there at the time, and the regent did not dare to openly quarrel with him, so he had to deal with it carefully."

"Later, the uncle of the emperor attacked the prince, and then my other imperial brothers were all killed by him. Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Prime Minister Zhang joined forces with the other princes to form his own faction. Finally, he wanted to support me I succeeded to the throne, but I didn’t expect that the emperor’s uncle would extend his poisonous hand to me.”

"At that time, Prime Minister Zhang personally protected me when I came out of the palace. Before my father died, he ordered secret guards to protect the princes. However, the royal brothers passed away one after another. They finally tried their best to send me out of the imperial city. Finally, I arrived at the border town. I was left with only A dozen or so people."

"Most of the forces in this imperial city belong to the regent, but my second uncle King Duan also holds some military power. He and the regent have had a long-standing grudge, but he has also been eyeing the throne for many years! General Xu Liangcheng, the mighty tiger He holds a heavy army, but he refuses to obey the control of the regent and wants to make himself king!"

Situ Jin sighed: "The generals are self-respecting. The prince has been planning for a long time. How can he be able to help you ascend to the throne with the support of civil servants?"

The Union of Gentlemen's eyes turned red: "If the regent had not led troops into the palace on the grounds that there was no posthumous edict, I would not be where I am now. I suspect that my father was also killed by him, but I have no evidence. Even if there is evidence, With my own abilities, I have no way to avenge my father."

Situ Jin looked at the Union of Gentlemen with red eyes and said nothing. Since ancient times, there have been many bones on the road to imperial power. Didn't Xia Zhaoguo just experience the farce of military commanders seizing power and aristocratic families seizing the throne?

Their fates are so similar, but if it weren't for their common enemy, he wouldn't take the risk of coming to the Western Regions to interfere in other people's affairs.

It's a quiet night in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Prime Minister Zhang was shocked when he looked at the people who had appeared in front of him at some unknown time. Since the regent assassinated the prince in the palace and he openly became an enemy of the regent, he had strengthened the guards in the palace, especially at night, taking turns to keep vigil. There were people arranged in every corner, so how did these people appear in front of him.

He stared at the few strangers in front of him, and one of them was wearing a curtain hat, covering most of his face. He stepped back quietly involuntarily, and just as he was about to call someone, he was blocked by the sword in the shadow's hand.

He was so frightened that he immediately stopped in his tracks, looked at the people in front of him without moving, and asked cautiously:

"Who are you, and why do you come to my house late at night?"

Situ Jin sat down at the table and looked at Prime Minister Zhang who was so frightened that his words were trembling.

"Prime Minister Zhang, don't be afraid. I am here today on an entrustment. Prime Minister, you might as well sit down and let's have a good chat!"

This king? Prime Minister Zhang was horrified. He knew all the princes in the Western Regions. There was absolutely no way he could exist. As far as he knew, Bei Liao had just been destroyed and all the princes were killed. Only the third prince was left. Could it be him? Is he the third prince of Bei Liao?

The figure standing in front of him saw his eyes twinkling and hesitated to speak, so he said:

"This is me, the seventh prince of Xia Zhao Kingdom, His Highness Prince Jin!"

Prime Minister Zhang's eyes widened instantly. The Jin king of Xia Zhaoguo, who single-handedly captured the three cities occupied by Bei Liao, killed all the members of the Bei Liao royal family with a wave of his hand, and directly destroyed the Jin of Bei Liao. king?

Could it be that the army confronting the Regent in the border town was led by the King of Jin? Now there is a good show. The Regent controls the government, and he is worried that there is no way to get rid of the Regent. If both the Regent and the King of Jin lose, then he It's not time to make great achievements.

At this moment, Prime Minister Zhang finally understood why there were so many guards in his house, and why this person could break in so easily.
