Chapter 293 Conditions
Illness comes like a mountain down, sickness goes like a thread.

King Jin was ill for three days, did not see Xie's father and son, nor went to see Zhang Xutang at the Criminal Division, but met Song Hui every day in the palace.

Song Huiyue came in the morning, left at night, and fed King Jin three times a day—King Jin didn’t resist taking medicine, but because the scorching bubble didn’t break for a long time at first, it hurt more after it burst, so he didn’t want to eat anything .

His weak face was pale, and he gradually became less shameless in front of Song Huiyue. He often watched her fall asleep while weaving bamboo strips, and when she woke up, her hair must be disheveled, her face pale, without a trace of blood, and without elegance at all. .

Compared with the lively Song Huiyue, he is simply a yellow-faced king.

Song Huiyue didn't care about this, King Jin was indeed charming, but sometimes he wasn't so charming for a few days, and it didn't damage his beauty. Instead, he looked like a poor guy who needed her to take care of him.

She took care of King Jin like a little nanny, holding a plate of lotus paste cake, broke it into two, and ate half of it first, then pressed King Jin in the chair with one hand, and put the lotus seed cake with the other. Forcibly sending it into his mouth, Jin Wang tried his best to hide back, but he couldn't avoid it, because Song Huiyue almost stabbed his finger into his throat.

King Jin had no choice but to swallow the lotus seed cake, but Song Huiyue was relentless and stuffed another half piece in.

After finally finishing the lotus seed cake, Song Huiyue poured more than half of the pot of lychee syrup for King Jin.

King Jin drank too much sugar water and had a strong desire to urinate, so he went to clean the room one after another, sometimes even when he couldn't stand it for a quarter of an hour, he had to make a trip.

Xie Zhou forcibly came to visit his doctor, and seeing him go one after another, he couldn't help but said: "My lord, you must have a kidney deficiency."

"no!"

"Then you are so dripping?"

"No! Go away!"

Xie Zhou got out and saw Song Huiyue coming with a big medicine jar, he was very worried about Song Huiyue's future, and decided to go back and tell his old father that if there was a good internal medicine expert, he would also find one for King Jin.

The king of Jin was so humiliated in front of Song Huiyue and Xie Zhou that he was about to lose his love, and he was "carefully cared for" by Song Huiyue. On the fourth day, the disease recovered quickly and he dared not continue to get sick again down.

It happened that the next day was the Ghost Festival, Song Huiyue wanted to go to the street with Mrs. Song to buy bran leaves and Magu cases, so she went home first.

King Jin sent her to the carriage, and couldn't help but ask, "Will you come tomorrow?"

Song Huiyue shook her head: "You are all well, don't come."

And she still wants to find Yin Xiao.

King Jin regretted that he recovered too quickly.

After sending Song Huiyue away, the King of Jin went to the Criminal Division and met Zhang Xutang again in the Prison Temple.

Zhang Xutang didn't enter the quiet room these days, and his complexion obviously improved, but there was no cup of hot tea on the table for him to snatch, which made him very uncomfortable.

"My lord is so calm. I thought you would come to see me the next morning."

On that day, he waited eagerly, and even prepared a few understated words of relief. As soon as King Jin arrived, he would immediately send out those sarcasm. Who knew that he was hopeless, but King Jin never came to meet him. mean.

But at this time, he looked at King Jin's words and expressions, trying to find depression, grief, hatred, and anger from King Jin, but he couldn't find any.

Maybe Jin Wang has been calm for the past few days, enough to digest these emotions, maybe Jin Wang is more calm than when he was in Tanzhou.

Even so, Zhang Xutang still felt a slight change from him.

He found that King Jin had lost part of his "love" and part of his "desire for humanity", so he had self-castrated his emotions. When he was sitting in a chair, he was like a mountain, which could overwhelm everything without emotion.

King Jin didn't gossip with him, and said concisely: "The past events you told are not enough for me to let you go."

"I understand," Zhang Xutang laughed, "The value of our Zhang family cannot be exchanged for a small story, so I prepared another big gift."

King Jin glanced at him: "You have been planning for so long, I hope your gift is big enough, otherwise you still can't buy your life."

"It's not a plan, it's a gamble." Zhang Xutang corrected him, "It seems that I made the right bet."

The rebellion between the Zhang family and King Chen was a huge gunpowder barrel. The lead wire was hidden somewhere, and the fire was held in Li Jun's hands.

They all knew that this pile of gunpowder would explode sooner or later. If the timing of the explosion was not good enough, the Zhang family would be blown to pieces, and even the noble concubines in the harem and the former King Yan would be affected.

So Zhang Xutang called the shots and made this gamble.

He asked the Zhang family and King Yan to retreat together, retreat to a corner, let Jin Wang and Song Huiyue investigate everything, until they found Li Jun, found the Zhang family's letter, and exposed it in the court hall. them so far.

In this way, the Zhang family can decide when the fuse will be ignited, can control the scope and power of the explosion, and finally eliminate this incident that was enough to bring catastrophe to the Zhang family.

Everything was as Zhang Xutang expected, there were slight mistakes in the details because of Song Huiyue, but it didn't matter, the big details were the same.

King Jin found the fuse and ignited it. Zhang Xutang carried the gunpowder barrel into the prison, enduring pain and torture, and carefully held the pile of gunpowder until today.

Next, this pile of gunpowder will be extinguished in his arms, turning into dead ashes, and it will never be able to affect the Zhang family again.

At the same time, he also hollowed out King Jin's methods.

Their Zhang family no longer has any excuses. Even if you, King Jin, have powerful means, the Zhang family can fight back openly and stand uprightly above the court.

There was murderous intent hidden in the corners of King Jin's eyes and eyebrows: "You are indeed betting big, and you will die if you are not careful."

Zhang Xutang nodded: "It's very big, and the conditions we use in exchange are also very big."

As he said that, he seemed to be very reluctant to cover his heart, almost crying with regret: "It's Dingzhou Tiger Talisman, which can mobilize [-] soldiers and horses in Dingzhou."

He had said these words thousands of times in his heart, but when he really said them, he really felt that the [-] soldiers in Dingzhou were moving away from him.

But there is no way, except for this one thing, anything else is just scratching the surface for King Jin, not enough to tempt him—unless the Zhang family can catch Song Huiyue in exchange, but this action is too dangerous, because Jin The king lost his beloved, and in a fit of rage, it is very likely that he would sacrifice him to heaven before negotiating terms with the Zhang family.

"Our Zhang family, I will give you the Tiger Talisman, on the condition that you write down a dossier on the spot that can prove that the Zhang family did not rebel, and ask Shen Zhijie to send it to Jinshang immediately for review."

King Jin "scattered" in the chair.

His body was still rigid and he was sitting in the chair, but his soul had already drifted with the current and swung to the land of Dingzhou along with the hundred thousand soldiers and horses.

Military power is something that King Yan is proud of, and it is also something that King Jin lacks. As long as he has the Tiger Talisman, he can arbitrarily arrange his own people to enter Dingzhou.

Pei Jiaerlang, the Four Masters, You Song and other followers are forces that cannot be underestimated in the capital. Once they enter Dingzhou, they are like diving into the sea. Within a year, they will be able to make great achievements.
