Chapter 220: Tit for Tat



The thin man trembled for a long time, and finally remembered some other clues.

,

"Those people seem to have difficulty speaking the Chinese language. They don't seem like people from our country!"

As soon as the thin man finished speaking, the Prime Minister immediately thought of the Nanjiang tribe with whom he had once cooperated.

If things hadn't been going so smoothly during this period and the process of gaining power hadn't happened so quickly, the Prime Minister wouldn't have forgotten about the Southern Xinjiang clan.

You have to know that he had colluded with the Nanjiang clan and killed a concubine. That concubine seemed to be someone from the Nanjiang clan?

It has been so long that the prime minister can no longer remember the concubine.

But the prime minister knew very well that he had received money from the southern border clan.

This also made the Prime Minister feel a little short of breath when he mentioned the Southern Xinjiang clan again.

The prime minister knew very well that given the character of the people in southern Xinjiang, they must have kept evidence of his collusion with them.

If these people make the evidence public due to a disagreement, the Prime Minister will probably be spurned by everyone!

"Are those people a little skinny? Not good at playing with bugs?"

The Prime Minister narrowed his eyes and looked at the thin man in front of him who was lying on the ground trying hard to recall.

The thin man sent by Zhao Ji knew that the old man was testing him when he heard the prime minister's question.

Fortunately, this man had a strong ability to adapt to circumstances in this situation. He looked puzzled and looked at the prime minister hesitantly. The prime minister took the bait and asked him what he was looking at.

The thin man sighed and said, "I always feel that I am not the same person as you are talking about. The group of people I met carried very small jars and porcelain bottles with them. Once I saw some small insects in them. They seemed to like to let these insects fight each other in the jars. And there were fat and thin people in that group..."

Originally the prime minister had only a little doubt, but now he is very sure.

It was none other than the Nanjiang clan.

The prime minister had a very clear understanding that the emperor's disappearance in the palace without anyone noticing might be due to the Southern Xinjiang clan's behind-the-scenes conspiracy.

Now that the prime minister is very sure, there is no need for him to save the life of the thin man.

This is also to prevent the thin man from talking nonsense outside again. Naturally, it is also because the emperor feels that such a person cannot be allowed to wander outside. If he is poached by others, it will be a handle and clue to attack him.

Seeing murderous intent in the prime minister's eyes, the thin man lowered his head as if he didn't know, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Let's do it!" You only heard the prime minister's indifferent voice, and the thin man knew that now was the best time.

Immediately, a man walked out from the darkness and reached out to take the thin man's life.

The thin man remembered Zhao Ji's instructions and immediately took out the bug. Although he didn't know what the bug was used for, it didn't stop him from throwing it away.

Neither the Prime Minister nor the assassin who suddenly appeared had expected that such a thing would appear.

The green insect sensed the danger the moment it was thrown out, and its whole body suddenly shrank, spewing out a puff of poisonous smoke.

When the prime minister saw this scene, he immediately remembered the witchcraft of the people in southern Xinjiang. His face changed drastically and he quickly covered his nose, but he was still affected by the poisonous smoke.

He was dazed and passed out.

The same thing happened to the killer. The man sent by Zhao Ji was not a real civilian. After seeing the two people fainted one after another, he immediately used his kung fu to leave the Prime Minister's mansion.

And brought all the relevant information to Zhao Ji.

After listening to the thin man's description, Zhao Ji showed a faint smile on his face. Then it was time for dog-eat-dog competition.

As expected, the first thing the Prime Minister did after he woke up was to search for people from southern Xinjiang in the imperial city.

The action was very big.

There was even news that people from Southern Xinjiang were sent to infiltrate the imperial city in order to frame officials of the Celestial Empire.

The prime minister took this action in order to prevent the people in southern Xinjiang from being cornered by him and publishing evidence that was unfavorable to him.

Such a big fuss makes it difficult for these people to speak.

Because if these people from southern Xinjiang said that the prime minister was colluding with them, the prime minister would simply turn around and accuse them of framing loyal ministers, thus clearing himself of all charges.

The Nanjiang clan, who had been dormant for a long time, never expected that when they were about to escape from the imperial city, they would be stabbed in the back by the prime minister.

This group of people from southern Xinjiang have been forced to hide everywhere during this period.

In addition, the gates of the imperial city were never opened, and they almost ran out of ammunition and food.

Now that the imperial city is open and people are strictly restricted from leaving the city, they dare not act rashly.

Now that this has happened again, they are really angry and embarrassed.

"Everyone in this Celestial Empire, from the princes to the emperor to the prime minister, is worthless and will be thrown away after use!"

"Now the Prime Minister is turning around and attacking us. I don't know what's wrong with him. He's so serious about it!"

In an alley behind an extremely busy market, there is a very dilapidated house, which is where these impoverished southern Xinjiang tribes now live.

"In my opinion, why bother with internal disintegration and secret ambush? Don't we have an army of 100,000? We can just march directly to the border, and with the help of our royal family's poisonous insect technique, we can defeat an army of 200,000. We can directly come to the capital without anyone noticing and wipe out the emperor's lair. This would save us so many twists and turns!"

A man from southern Xinjiang said angrily.

"Didn't the eldest prince say that he wanted to take over the world through scheming? He also cooperated with the prime minister and gave the emperor the Five Stone Powder. Now we are in this situation!"

Other people from southern Xinjiang also began to talk about it.

In their view, this business can be said to be a loss of both the wife and the army.

More poisonous insects were brought in as compensation, but the emperor was still not controlled. Even the poisonous insect that controlled the little prince was inexplicably broken for some reason.

Instead, they are now forced to retreat step by step and hide from place to place.

"How about this? We find a chance to get out and contact the Second Prince directly. The Second Prince has always been a war advocate and has already sent people to gather the army together near the capital."

"When the time comes, we will take the news from the Imperial City and the map of the internal deployment and go directly to the Second Prince to gather together!"

The trapped people in southern Xinjiang quickly agreed to this plan.

The next most difficult thing is to escape from the capital by escaping the Prime Minister's strict search.
