Chapter 618 Yes! Your Majesty!
When Jin Dayin read the letter, he felt as if he had been poured with cold water, from head to toe! Cold sweat broke out on Jin Dayin's forehead.
He never thought that his trafficking of humans to the Southern Demon Kingdom, and then reselling some monsters from the Southern Demon Kingdom back to Qi State, would be discovered!
And it was discovered by the Wu State.
Jin Dayin knew that Wu Kingdom's Tingfeng Pavilion and Jinyiwei were very good at gathering intelligence, but he didn't expect them to be so capable.
If it was just the trafficking of demon and human populations, Jin Dayin felt that he didn't need to be so nervous.
It's not a capital crime.
But in that year, the State of Qi was at war with a demon country in the southern border. He had secret dealings with the other party's high-level officials, and after getting enough benefits, he let the other party escape.
That’s a capital crime!
If His Majesty knew about this, how could He let me go? Moreover, even if His Majesty would let me go, how could Zhu Xi let me go?
In that battle, Zhu Xi was the main general.
At that time, for the sake of profit, I almost killed Zhu Xi.
Zhu Xi began to doubt himself at that time, but he had no evidence.
If Wu Guo told Qi about these things, Zhu Xi, the first prince of Qi, would probably fight with me to the death. "In this case, I only have one choice left!"
Jin Dayin tightly grasped the envelope in his hand, and it turned into ashes in an instant!
In the next two days, Jin Dayin often went to see King Ningnan.
King Ningnan and Jin Dayin often had quarrels.
It can basically be said that the two of them quarreled every time they met and never had a good time sitting together.
Moreover, King Ningnan often insulted Jin Dayin in front of his soldiers and trampled on his face.
Several times, King Ningnan slammed the weapon in his hand and shouted, "If the war wasn't so intense right now, I would definitely kill that guy!"
There was even one time when King Ningnan found an opportunity and whipped Jin Dayin severely hundreds of times, leaving his body covered with scars.
In Nanyue City, many people already feel that Jin Dayin and King Ningnan are incompatible.
After all, for officials, especially military generals like them, the most important thing is their face. Without face, there is no dignity, and without dignity, others will look down on you.
How can you lead troops if others look down on you?
It was at this time that Jin Dayin's ties with the Wu State army became increasingly close.
The two sides exchanged letters constantly.
Generals such as Wu Zejiu also seemed to trust Jin Dayin more and more.
That night, Jin Dayin secretly went to meet King Ningnan.
"Your Highness is in the room." Walking in front of King Ningnan, Jin Dayin saluted with his fists clasped.
In this room, there are only Jin Dayin and King Ningnan.
"General Jin, why do you need to salute?" King Ningnan hurriedly stepped forward and helped Jin Dayin up. He seemed to attach great importance to Jin Dayin. "General Jin has really been wronged during this period!"
"That's not true, Your Highness. As long as it's for our Qi State, this little grievance doesn't matter." Jin Dayin said proudly.
"Okay!" King Ningnan patted Jin Dayin on the shoulder, looking very touched. "This time, General Jin suffered so much injustice for our Qi State, and was even whipped by me. After defeating the enemy, I will report General Jin's great achievements to His Majesty! It is not impossible for him to be made a marquis or a prime minister!"
Jin Dayin's eyes flashed with intense joy: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
It’s true that Jin Dayin was indeed a little tempted. After all, who doesn’t want to be a marquis or a prime minister?
If it weren't for that letter, Jin Dayin would have really defected to King Ningnan.
But now Jin Dayin has no other choice.
Moreover, after he defected to the State of Wu, he could also be granted a title of nobility.
Even if he is just an idle prince, it would be fine, living a life of wealth and glory, even without any power, it is better than being dead.
"No need to be polite, this is all won by you, General Jin." King Ningnan pulled Jin Dayin to sit next to him and personally poured a cup of tea for Jin Dayin. "General Jin, how have you been chatting with those guys from Wu Kingdom these days?"
The quarrels that occurred during this period, even the fact that King Ningnan whipped Jin Dayin in public and humiliated him in front of the three armies, were just two people acting.
The main purpose is to make those guys in Qi believe that Jin Dayin really rebelled!
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. In the beginning, those guys from Wu State were indeed suspicious by nature and did not believe in me. But in these days, especially after Your Highness whipped me in public, they have become very trusting of me and they all think that Your Highness and I have fallen out." Jin Dayin said with a smile, looking very confident.
“Okay, okay!”
King Ningnan said "OK" four times in a row.
"I feel it's almost time. Winter will come soon. Their food and grass supply will become increasingly difficult. Besides, siege in winter is extremely difficult. I'm sure they must be very anxious now! When we get back, General Jin, write a letter.
Tell Wu Zejiu and others that the time is ripe and you will open the city gate the day after tomorrow evening.
At this time, we will set up an ambush and leave them no way to retreat!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness!" Jin Dayin looked very excited. "I heard that Wu Kingdom has never been defeated on any of its fronts, but this time they meet Your Highness, not only will they be defeated, but they will all have no chance of returning!"
“Hahaha!” Prince Ningnan stroked his beard, “Then I’ll borrow General Jin’s good words. By that time, General Jin will be famous all over the world!”
"Your Highness, you are too polite. All of this is the result of your brilliant plan." Jin Dayin cupped his hands, "Then Your Highness, I will withdraw now and go deliver the letter to them. I dare not delay the important matter."
"I'll send General Jin off."
King Ningnan stood up and personally delivered the gold and silver.
Only after Jin Dayin left did King Ningnan withdraw his gaze.
The originally playful look in King Ningnan's eyes completely disappeared at this moment, and even took on a hint of ferocity.
"Your Highness, this gold and silver is not a good thing. After this war is over, do we really have to commend him for his achievements?" A deputy general walked up to King Ningnan and asked.
The deputy general felt only disgust towards this guy Jin Dayin.
"Haha, how is that possible!"
King Ningnan sneered a few times.
"This Jin Dayin doesn't have much ability, he's just a decent Golden Body Warrior, but keeping this guy here will only bring more trouble to our Qi State.
The day after tomorrow, let this Jin Dayin die directly on the battlefield."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
