    Chapter 312: To Save or Not to Save

    Kinmen City is a medium-sized city. As the east gate of Kinmen City, heavy troops of Silla are stationed here. However, according to the information obtained by Li Min, due to the previous war with Baekje, many troops stationed in Kinmen City have been mobilized. Now  There are only more than two thousand people stationed in the city, and they are all old and weak, so there is not much defensive force at all.

    After Li Min arrived at Kinmen City, the first thing he did was to take over the defense here, and this was also approved by Jin Shengman. As the city lord, Jin Gongqi also cooperated very much and took the initiative to transfer the two thousand old and weak people out of the city.  , let the army of the Tang Dynasty move in, and entertained Li Min and his party very thoughtfully. Not only did they prepare a grand welcoming ceremony for Li Min, but they also prepared a lot of wine and meat for the troops.

    After the banquet, Jin Gongqi personally led the way to his residence for Li Min and Jin Shengman. This was originally his city lord's palace, but now it was specially set aside for them to live in. He also gave Li Min and the others a brief tour.

    Regarding Jin Gongqi¡¯s enthusiastic performance, Li Min smiled lightly and said: ¡°City Lord Jin, my visit to Silla this time has really troubled you loyal ministers!¡±

    "Your Highness is serious. These are the duties that a minister should do. As long as His Highness and the king are satisfied, it will be the greatest reward for Gongqi!" Jin Gongqi responded with some sincerity.  However, although Li Min looked at the other party with a smile, there was a cold light in his eyes that no one noticed.

    Li Min always felt a little uneasy about Jin Gongqi. Although he behaved very normally and was very respectful to Li Min, Jin Gongqi was also very enthusiastic at the banquet and said many words of thanks to him.  The general meaning is that the marriage between Li Min and Jin Shengman allowed Silla to finally get out of its current predicament, and he himself was extremely supportive.

    Jin Gongqi was originally one of Jin Shengman's confidants, and now he welcomed Li Min's arrival. This was originally a very normal thing, but Li Min noticed a trace of abnormal atmosphere in this normality.  Because he felt that Jin Gongqi seemed to be too enthusiastic. Even the 25,000 troops he brought did not show any resistance at all, as if everything was as he expected.

    This person is not simple, he even deceived Jin Shengman!  Li Min said secretly in his heart.  Although he didn't dare to be absolutely sure, there must be something wrong with Jin Gongqi. Although Li Min didn't have any evidence at all, he believed in his intuition. It seemed that he had to be careful tonight.

    After casually wandering around Jin Gongqi's city lord's palace, Li Min asked Jin Gongqi to leave in the name of being tired from the journey.  Originally, Li Min and Jin Shengman were already married and should live together. However, from the first day of their marriage, Li Min never laid a finger on Jin Shengman, so the two always slept in separate rooms.

    Regarding this situation, Jin Shengman didn't say anything. Even in today's situation, he silently asked the maid to pack his things, left the master bedroom to Li Min, and moved to the study room next to him to sleep, and Li Min also  No blocking.

    But today was destined to be an extraordinary night. At three o'clock in the evening, although the candles in Li Min's bedroom were extinguished, there were two black figures standing there by the window, motionless and terrifying.

    "Wang Fu, how do you think the Silla people will assassinate her?" A voice suddenly asked quietly, it was Li Min who had not slept.

    "Haha, this old man can't guess it, but now that the mansion is full of our people, it is definitely impossible for them to attack by force, so they should use a milder killing method." An old voice replied, naturally correct  It's Li Min's Wangfu Wangan.

    Li Min nodded when he heard Wang An's answer. He thought so too.  Originally, Li Min was sure that some people in Silla would definitely take action against him and Jin Shengman today, but he was not worried about his own safety at all, because he knew very well that even if he lent a few more to those people  They didn't dare to lift a finger because he was the King of Qi of the Tang Dynasty. If something happened in Silla, no matter what kind of explanation he gave, they would not be satisfied with the Tang Dynasty.  What awaits them will be Li Shimin's endless anger, and that kind of anger is definitely not something that a little Silla can bear.

    It is precisely because of this that when Li Min entered Silla, no matter how much some people hated him, they still had to find ways to protect his safety, let alone send people to harm him.  But this was only for him, and he had no regard for Jin Shengman. So the reason why Li Min didn't sleep today was because he wanted to see how the Silla people would assassinate Jin Shengman?

    In fact, for Li Min, Jin Shengman's life and death is not very important now, because he is already married to Jin Shengman. With this relationship, he has an excuse to interfere with Silla, even if Jin Shengman really  After being assassinated, Li Min could stillFor the reason of revenge for Jin Shengman, he used strong means to control Silla. However, this method may cause resistance from some people in Silla, which will make Li Min spend more energy.

    November is about to enter now, and winter has come very early this year. The temperature has dropped below zero early. The weather tonight is even worse. In the evening, the sky is full of thick dark clouds, and it is freezing.  The cold wind was blowing non-stop, and it looked like it was going to snow.

    Li Min and Wang An waited for a while, and suddenly snowflakes started to fall outside, and the snow became heavier and heavier. The ground was soon covered with a layer of silver. With the hazy snow light, the night was actually more beautiful.  It was a little brighter before.

    Li Min looked at the study room opposite where Jin Shengman lived, and couldn't help but feel impatient in his heart. It was already past the third watch, but there was still no movement. Are the people from Silla really not planning to take action?  No, those people definitely don¡¯t want Jin Shengman to return to Pyongyang with them, otherwise Silla will have to change her surname to Li. Only if Jin Shengman dies on the way will they have a chance to give it a try, although this chance is very slim.  , but it is not impossible to succeed.

    Thinking of this, Li Min steeled himself again and stared at the study room opposite. Another half an hour passed. Just when Li Min was about to give up, suddenly there was a slight movement in the wing next to the study room.  Li Min immediately frowned, because that was where the maid lived.

    Sure enough, after a while, a ghostly white figure came out of the wing. With the dim light in the corridor, although Li Min could not see clearly the appearance of the person who came out, he was sure that the other person should be  A maid beside Jin Shengman.

    I saw the maid shrinking down and approaching Jin Shengman's residence very nervously, and then slowly walked to the bedroom window. However, it was far away from Li Min, and the light was dim, so Li Min couldn't see clearly at all.  What did the maid do there? All she saw was that the other party stood up straight, stretched out her arms and climbed on the window for a while, and finally returned to the wing along the original route.

    "Your Highness, my eyesight is not very good. Can you clearly see what that person is doing?" Wang An asked with a frown. He originally thought that the other person would sneak into Jin Shengman's room and then do something evil. No.  Thinking that the other party just stood outside Jin Shengman's window for a while and then left, it didn't look like an assassination at all.

    "I didn't see clearly either!" Li Min was also confused. The other party didn't even enter the room. How could he assassinate Jin Shengman?

    "Wait a while, after the assassin leaves, let's send someone to see what she did?" Li Min thought for a while and said, he is really curious now, what method will the other party use to assassinate Jin Shengman?

    After waiting like this for another half an hour, Li Min called a guard and asked him to sneak over secretly to see if there was anything unusual on Jin Shengman's window.

    As a result, the guard left for a while and came back to report: "Your Highness, the exhaust pipe outside Jin Yanren's window has been blocked!"

    exhaust pipe!  Li Min was shocked after hearing this. The weather is extremely cold now, so stoves have been installed in the rooms. With the popularity of coal, even Silla was influenced by the Tang Dynasty, and stoves were used for heating in winter.  , but in order to prevent gas poisoning, there will be a pipe made of bamboo or iron on the stove to discharge the gas to the outside.

    ¡°So that¡¯s it, it¡¯s really hard to guard against!¡± Li Min nodded.  Block the exhaust pipe of the coal stove so that the gas generated by the stove cannot be discharged, and gas poisoning will easily occur. And since the other party dares to do this, there must be someone in Jin Shengman's room who is cooperating with others. This person will kill Jin Shengman again.  The doors and windows in Man's bedroom were sealed, so Jin Shengman couldn't help but be poisoned.

    "Killing without blood, what a ruthless method!" Wang An also sighed. With the application of charcoal, gas poisoning is also very common, so Wang An immediately guessed the other party's intention.

    However, Wang An never spoke again, but kept staring at Li Min, because now they faced two choices, that is, to save or not to save. If they did, they could use Jin Shengman's influence to control Li Min in one fell swoop.  The political core of Silla, and then control Silla very easily, but in this way, Jin Shengman will become the last hidden danger. After all, she is Li Min's woman, no one can do anything to her, and if the two of them accidentally  If there are children, it will be a big problem that is difficult to solve.

    And if he doesn't save it, the hidden danger of Jin Shengman will definitely be gone, and he will also give Li Min an excellent excuse to use strong means to wipe out Silla and completely control Silla in his hands. However, this way  Come, but you will have to pay a certain price. After all, Silla is a country, and there will definitely be people who resist. If Li Min wants to control Silla without paying any price, it is definitely not realistic.

    ?In fact, Li Min was inclined not to save her at first. After all, he and Jin Shengman had no relationship to begin with, and if he could really control Silla without any hidden dangers, it would be worth paying some price, but when this moment really comes.  , but Li Min suddenly hesitated, should he save him or not?  (To be continued.
