The most brilliant methods in this world are always the open and aboveboard strategies!
Because there's no way to counter a calculated, open scheme!
Destroy the opponent purely through logical chains!
Now that we have logically deduced that the mastermind behind this is none other than the Queen of Yan.
Whatever the assassin says in his statement is actually irrelevant!
As long as everyone knows that he is still alive... that will be enough to put a lot of psychological pressure on the Queen of Yan!
Or rather, even if he really died in the Princess's residence, as long as outsiders know that he is still alive, that is enough!
There's no point in revealing that the mastermind behind this was Empress Yan!
Whether the Prince of Yan believes it or not is another matter. Even if he does believe it, given his intelligence and temper, he might still mess things up!
It would be better to just leave out an 'unknown' bait and lure the rebels to show their true colors!
Then, have Ji Xi deploy troops to encircle the area from behind, wiping out the entire Yan Queen's forces...
In fact, Jiang Ming's core requirement was very simple: to gain control of the discourse in the Yan Kingdom's court!
The reason why the chosen partner was Ji Shishi, rather than the Queen of Yan, was because the Queen of Yan had two sons, and... the Queen of Yan did not have any clear "hobbies".
Unlike Ji Shishi, who is easy to "embed"!
After hearing Jiang Ming's arrangements, Prince Yan, Ji Xi, assured him, "Mr. Jiang, rest assured, the army I employ is absolutely reliable! There won't be any 'traitors'..."
"Okay! Then I'm relieved!"
Jiang Ming laughed and said, "This can be considered my first merit since coming to Yan Kingdom, helping you eliminate the traitors within the court..."
"Mr. Jiang!"
Ji Xi sighed and said, "After this is done, I will reward you handsomely!"
"hehe......"
Jiang Ming laughed and said, "This is nothing. Next, I will help the King to give the Qi Kingdom a good beating and wipe away the shame of Maiqiu!"
"Oh! Mr. Jiang!"
Ji Xi stepped forward and took Jiang Ming's hand, her eyes filled with gratitude, saying, "Having Mr. Jiang is like receiving rain after a long drought! If Mr. Jiang can lend me a hand, I would truly be..."
He hadn't quite figured out how to describe it yet when Ji Shishi laughed, "Brother Wang! Mr. Jiang is a man of both literary and military talent! Not only is he good at fighting, but he also writes poetry. In his study, he wrote me many poems and songs. Really... Brother Wang, I'm not exaggerating. From childhood to adulthood... I have never seen such exquisite writing!"
After saying that, Ji Shishi took out Jiang Ming's "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River" and showed it to Ji Xi.
Ji Xi was actually extremely puzzled!
What's wrong with my sister today?
He, who has always been arrogant and looked down on all men, actually agreed to submit to Jiang Ming after only meeting him once? And he's even as loyal as a lapdog...
This is... a bit too far-fetched!
Even if you write well, your own sister doesn't deserve to be so self-deprecating, does she?
And... how good can this article really be? I guess... it's just because Jiang Ming is a pretty boy, and they're attracted to his looks!
Ha! Women are women after all, so superficial!
However, after he carefully read a few lines of "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River", he was completely stunned!
The magnificent, beautiful, and ethereal atmosphere completely stunned Ji Xi!
Ji Xi and Ji Bochang are not the same.
Ji Bochang... he can't actually tell the quality of poetry!
He can only tell which woman has a certain charm and which woman is the real gem in bed.
As the crown prince, Ji Xi received the best education from a young age, so he could naturally distinguish between high and low status!
As he read Jiang Ming's article, he held his breath, his throat tightening...
Now I understand a little why my sister values Jiang Ming so much.
"Mr. Jiang!"
Ji Xi exclaimed in shock, "This article is rarely seen even in the Central Plains countries. In fact, it's no exaggeration to say that I've never seen such a good article in my entire life. Mr. Jiang, you are truly a genius!"
At this moment, Ji Xi was still pondering... it's possible that the article wasn't written by Jiang Ming at all, but by someone else.
Jiang Ming could easily see through his thoughts. He winked at Ji Shishi again, and Ji Shishi was stunned for a moment before quickly taking out the other poems written by Jiang Ming for Ji Xi to appreciate.
Ji Xi was even more shocked and puzzled after reading it...
Such beautiful poems, if they were truly written by our predecessors, would have been circulated throughout the world long ago.
But... I've never seen these poems before.
Moreover... the structure of these poems does not seem to have been used by predecessors.
"Mr. Jiang, you have surprised me so much today!"
Ji Xi pondered for a moment and said, "I never expected... that such exquisite literature could exist in the northern frontier!"
"hehe......"
Jiang Ming smiled faintly: "Your Majesty, how did you become so sure that I am a Xianbei spy?"
"ah?"
Ji Xi looked embarrassed: "Mr. Jiang, this... I didn't say that. I only thought you were a special envoy from Xianbei. Mr. Jiang, please don't misunderstand."
"hehe......"
Jiang Ming was too lazy to argue with him and pondered for a moment before saying, "Did I say that I was a special envoy of the Xianbei?"
"this?"
Hearing Jiang Ming say this, Prince Yan Ji Xi was even more bewildered!
"Mr. Jiang, who exactly are you? You wouldn't tell me in court just now, but can you tell me now?" Ji Xi asked curiously.
