Chapter 1011: Layout Begins

Bauhinia City.

Li Ru and Jia Xu sat in the courtyard for half a day. In the entire courtyard, dozens of people in black were guarding them. Both of them looked calm and calm, with a bit of sadness on their faces.

"Wenyou, when are you going to take action?"

"Time waits for no one, how about tonight?"

"No!"

Jia Xu shook his head, staring in the direction of the palace like an abyss: "All the grain and grass were burned last night. In less than three days, the grain shortage in Da Yan will spread from the capital to the surrounding areas."

"We can add another fire!"

"Um?"

"Every year of turmoil and calamity, someone will rise up. Now that the Da Yan Dynasty is in trouble internally and externally, we might as well follow Brother Zhang Jiaosan's example and secretly develop believers and cannibalize his officials."

“When the time is right, we will adopt multiple methods simultaneously.”

Li Ru thought deeply for a moment and nodded slightly: "Who does Brother Jia have in mind?"

"Jia personally entered the game."

"Can!"

Li Ru's eyes also flashed with a hint of sinisterness: "In this case, I will choose a prince in Bauhinia City, and use this as a tactic. When Emperor Yan dies, I can take advantage of the situation to help him ascend."

"Wenyou, don't forget, there is also an academy in Dayan!"

"How much do you know?"

Li Ru smiled calmly and said: "In the final analysis, the academy is outside the temple. We can destroy its reputation, burn its foundation, and poison its scholars."

"How is the family?"

"Those who obey me will return, and those who go against me will die!"

"How are you, the princes of the court?"

"Chaos his clan and imprison his heirs!"

Jia Xu nodded solemnly: "There are many people in the Da Yan court who are of great character and character. We can tarnish their reputation and insult their character!"

"If you combine all your plans together, you can achieve great things!"

"who?"

A soft drink sounded, and a killing sound came from outside the small courtyard. Li Ru raised his eyebrows: "Brother Jia, it seems that your and my whereabouts have been leaked."

"Well, in that case, you and I will make a ten-day appointment."

"Ten days later, we will act simultaneously."

"Can!"

royal palace.

Emperor Yan has been having trouble sleeping and eating these past few days. Even the concubines in the harem can feel that his Majesty has been under a lot of pressure recently.

Royal Garden.

Concubine Lan came to the pavilion with a plate of snacks. Looking at the frowning Emperor Yan, she placed the snacks in front of him and put her hands on his shoulders: "Your Majesty is worried about the war in the east?"

"yes!"

Emperor Yan also took a deep breath and sighed with regret: "The war in the Eastern Territory was disrespectful. In just one year, I, Da Yan, lost nearly one-third of our territory!"

"The entire army of the nine guards of the capital was annihilated, the entire army of Nan Yan was annihilated, the entire army of Dong Yan was annihilated, and the entire army of the city garrison was annihilated."

"The four military princes, the garrison prince died for his country, and the Changqing Hou Yunxi died in the battle."

"Dayu is like a sleeping lion awakening, conquering a large territory of my Dayan in one fell swoop!"

"How can I not worry?"

Concubine Lan also showed a sad look and sighed softly: "Your Majesty, in this case, why not ask Dayu for peace?"

"We, Da Yan, still have a large territory. As long as we regroup, we may not be unable to counterattack by then!"

"Seek peace?"

Emperor Yan shook his head and gently took Concubine Lan into his arms: "How can it be that easy? Now that Dayu's army is at its peak, how can he agree to our request for peace?"

"Even if we can sue for peace, how much price will I, Da Yan, have to pay?"

"What do the people of the world think of me?"

"How should all the countries in the Central Plains view me?"

"There is also Hu Nu. The army is overwhelming the northern border. I have no way to retreat!"

Emperor Yan looked gloomy, thinking back to those days when he was so majestic and heroic, using the power of the country to overwhelm other countries.

But in just a few years, everything changed.

"Your Majesty, I believe that I, Da Yan, am the destiny of this life."

"I am willing to live and die with Your Majesty."

Seeing Concubine Lan's caring look, Emperor Yan was also greatly moved: "I have a beloved concubine, so what's the harm if I lose the world?"

The two hugged each other for a moment, and Concubine Lan suddenly stood up: "Your Majesty, I would like to go to Qingping Temple to pray for Your Majesty."

"Um?"

Emperor Yan was also slightly surprised, and nodded with great relief: "I am very touched that my beloved concubine has such a heart."

"Go!"

Imperial Concubine Luan drove out of the palace city and came to a temple outside the city.

As the first ancient temple in Dayan, Qingping Temple has a history of hundreds of years. As early as the Sui Dynasty, it was favored by dignitaries.

Concubine Lan stepped out of the carriage, accompanied by a group of monks, burned a stick of incense, and then recited Buddhist scriptures in the main hall.

Until late at night, an old monk came behind the Buddha statue with a figure in black robes.

"Almsgiver, I will leave first."

"Um!"

Li Ru did not show up, but stood behind the Buddha and said indifferently: "Is it possible to kill Emperor Yan with poison in ten days?"

Although Concubine Lan looked calm, there was a storm in her heart: "Has it really come to this point?"

"You can't bear it?"

"Don't dare!"

"Don't forget your identity. This is the Lord's command."

"yes!"

"Sir, where is the queen who poisoned Emperor Yan?"

"Someone will arrange your escape."

"yes!"

After Concubine Lan left, Li Ru sat in a Zen room, with figures in black standing in front of him.

"From now on, the yellow banners are all dormant, waiting for orders!"

"Xuan Zihao, follow No. 2 out of the city to develop followers!"

"Regional offices keep a close eye on major official residences, and key personnel in each government must conduct comprehensive monitoring."

"promise!"

As more than ten figures left, only five figures, including Li Ru, were left in the room.

These five people were all dressed in black and had black scarves, and even had an iron mask over their eyes. Even Li Ru had never seen their true faces.

"You have been in Yan for several years, right?"

"Yes!"

"Number 7, this is your mission!"

Li Ru took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to the burly man in black, saying solemnly: "This mission is more important than your life, do you understand?"

"I will complete it at my death!"

"Heibingtai will not forget you, your information has been classified as Dayu's top secret. If you do not survive the mission, your family will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives, and your descendants will be taken to the imperial city and enter the Imperial College!"

"Thank you, sir!"

"Number 5, this is your mission!"

Li Ru took out another note and looked at the relatively thin man. Tianzi No. 5: "I remember you. You have been alone since the day you entered the Black Ice Platform."

"Yes, sir!"

"Your parents, wife and children all died at Dayan's hands. I want to tell you that Dayan is not far from destruction."

"Yes!"

"There is another good news."

Li Ru spoke calmly, looking into Tianzi No. 5's eyes: "Your sister is still alive."

"How is it possible!"

"Absolutely true."

Li Ru took out a letter from his arms: "Look for yourself, is this her handwriting?"

"It really is!"

"Qier is she still alive? Is she really still alive?"

"Sir, where is she?"
