Mountain ward.

"Hmph, look, the city has been locked for less than three days, and the Ming Palace is not in a hurry yet. We are just worried, and we are just a bastard!" Jin Jae-sung hung up the phone, looking very bad.

Xu Minghou stood aside and asked hurriedly: "Is it here to put pressure again?"

Jin Zai-sung didn't say anything, reached out to pick up the teacup on the table. As soon as he opened it, he saw that there was no water. He couldn't suppress his anger in his heart. He glared at the tiger's eyes and raised his hand to smash the teacup.

"Good man, please calm down!" Xu Minghou smiled bitterly in his heart. How many cups have been smashed in the past few days. He quickly raised his hand to stop him and personally helped him refill the water.

Kim Jae-sung took a sip of water, then slowly sat down, pointed at the phone, and said to Seo Ming-hoo: "Do you know who called me just now?"

"Who is it?" Xu Minghou asked hurriedly.

"Kim Nantian!" Jin Zaicheng had a blue face and spit out a name word by word.

"Third Master?" Xu Minghou was stunned, then opened his mouth, but smiled bitterly and didn't know what to say.

Now I understand why the general was so angry. Since the heavy army locked the city, there have been calls coming over. There is only one topic, withdrawing the siege!

Mingzhu is the largest trading port between the countries and Daxia. Every day, there are countless kinds of goods entering and leaving Mingzhu. All countries, including the flag states themselves, have made unimaginable huge profits between entering and leaving.

Now that the city has locked the city, it not only locked the Ming Palace, but also locked them, especially those who smuggled, so they are naturally unhappy and have begun to frequently use various relationships to put pressure on Jin Zaicheng.

It’s okay for the others, but Jin Nantian is different. He is a member of the Jin family and the handsome cousin.

He would actually stand up against the Dashen Locking City. No wonder Dashen called him the name directly.

Xu Minghou thought about it, but he was puzzled in his eyes: "The Third Master should be very clear about the significance of arresting King Ming to the Jin family. How could he ignore the overall situation and face the pressure from the general manager for some business?"

Kim Jae-sung's eyes flashed for a moment, but he didn't speak immediately. He was silent for a while before saying, "If I guessed correctly, it should be related to Han Lin. Kim Nam-tung's youngest son Kim Jiannian was just transferred to the front line in northern Jiangsu last month and is now a general under General Han Lin."

"General Han Lin? Is the front line also dissatisfied with us locking the city?" Xu Minghou was shocked when he heard this: "Although we locked the city, we did not neglect the front line's logistics and had already made a mate in advance. It was only less than three days, so it would not affect them."

"Hmph, if the front line is delayed, Han Lin will not have to put pressure on me through Jin Nantian, but will directly come forward to target me." Jin Zaicheng snorted coldly.

Xu Minghou thought about it and it was right, and what the Marshal said made sense.

The Kim family dominated the Pearl, and the Korean and Cui factions had always wanted to take the handle of the Grandmaster. If the front line was delayed, General Han Lin would probably not have to beat around the bush and fire directly at the Grandmaster.

As long as there is no objection on the front line, Xu Minghou will feel much more at ease, but he still frowned and wondered: "Is General Han Lin also making a breakthrough for the Han family's business? But this is not right. Others can say that it is for the business, but General Han Lin is the brother of Han Zaiko, the former chief officer of Mingzhu. Han Zaiko died at the hands of Mingwang. He should support us the most against Mingwang, so why did he interfere and hinder it?"

Upon hearing this, Kim Jae-sung glanced at Xu Minghou and sneered: "What else can I do? Han Zai-ko died at the hands of the Ming Prince's Mansion. Although His Majesty gave Han Zai-ko a decent evaluation, it was actually true that Han Zai-ko was incompetent, and the Han family lost people. They hated the Ming Prince to the core, but they would not hope to win the Ming Prince. When Han Zai-ko was incompatible with him. In the end, he died, but I took the Ming Prince. Isn't this more proving that Han Zai-ko is incompetent? It's more proving that I have the ability to guard the Ming Pearl?"

"This..." Xu Minghou was speechless. It was not that he couldn't think of these things, but he didn't think about it at all. After all, King Ming is a common threat to everyone, and some personal grievances should not be important to deal with King Ming.

However, in fact, it is important to deal with Ming Wang, but when factions are in conflict with power, the so-called hatred is for the sake of interests. Xu Minghou did not understand this point, but Kim Jae-sung, who came from a noble family, could understand it.

Xu Minghou nodded and said, "Since it has nothing to do with the front line, the general should ignore it."

"Do you know what reason Jin Nantian was looking for?" Jin Jae-sung had a dark face and sneered: "He said that the matter of killing many soldiers from Mingwang Baicaotang in China is surging. Now the most important thing is to let this matter pass quickly and not cause trouble on the phoenix head. He said that if I lock the city now, there will be more people offended. Jin has already been under a lot of pressure for me. If he continues to persist and cannot win the Mingwang in the end, it will make it difficult for Jin to step down."

Speaking of this, Kim Jae-sung smashed the table hard, stood up, and said angrily: "What he said seemed to be really considering me. Do you really think I am a fool? If King Ming did such a big case, I wouldn't even give in without trying my best to arrest King Ming. Can I still admit defeat? A short-sighted guy actually gave up his position for his son's slight future. It's ridiculous and ridiculous!"

Xu Minghou sighed in his heart, and he didn't know what to say.

Some things are on the surface and everyone can see clearly, but when it really concerns their own interests, how many people can take into account the overall situation and sacrifice their families.

Jin Nantian is over 60 years old, and now he has no room for improvement. It is not surprising that he will put pressure on the general for his son's future future in the Jin family.

Kim Jae-sung was angry, but he had no choice but to be so angry that he calmed down after a long time.

After looking down at the information compiled from all aspects, he was silent for a moment and said, "You said, the so-called queen is seriously ill. Could it be that the Xia Dynasty and the Ming Prince's Mansion are really playing a double act? The Ming Prince is not in a hurry to leave the city?"

When Xu Minghou heard this, he immediately knew that even though the coach scolded him, he still couldn't bear the pressure.

After a little thought, he shook his head and said, "If the Ming Palace is to attract us to look at the border, it must be to make some moves in the city, but so far, there has been no sign of the Ming Palace in the city."

When Kim Jae-sung heard this, he slowly breathed out and said, "If I had known this, I would not have closed the secret lines of the Xia Dynasty that day."

When he heard about this, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Xu Ming's face. After the Battle of Baicaotang, the dilemma of finding nothing to cover up the failure of the operation was that he proposed to the general to put the spies under his command so that he could give an explanation to the country.

But now it seems that it is indeed a bit too anxious, otherwise, you could follow these lines and touch the movements of those people in Xia Dynasty.

If the news of the queen's serious illness was true, Xia Chao would definitely not be able to sit still, and the intelligence personnel lurking in Mingzhu would make some noise.

Xu Minghou didn't know if the general said this, and he had to blame him, so he could only say: "For a long time, the Ming Palace and the Xia Dynasty were two organizations. Both sides had no unity and had not even established a contact channel. Even if these Daxia spies were kept, they would not have much use. It is unlikely that they would want to grasp the Ming King's movements through them."

When Kim Jae-sung heard this, he glanced at Xu Minghou and said nothing.

Xu Minghou's words were avoiding the important things. Kim Jae-sung said that the purpose of leaving those people was not to grasp the movements of Ming Wang through them.

Instead, through them, the information of the queen's serious illness was confirmed to prove that his decision to block the border was correct.

However, Jin Zaicheng knew in his heart that it was not Xu Minghou's fault when he arrested the person. He suddenly mentioned this, not to blame or pursue Xu Minghou. He just thought about the internal disagreement of Jin's family, so he wanted to hit Xu Minghou.

Xu Minghou is not his own direct line, but is directly responsible to the head of the Jin family. Because Mingzhu is important, the Jin family specially sent Xu Minghou to assist him. Jin Jae-sung must let him understand that the fate of the two is now tied together, one prospers and one loss, and everyone has a responsibility if there is a problem.

There is no need to be a heavy hammer for the drum. Kim Jae-sung did not continue this topic and then said in a deep voice: "Although Kim Nam-ten said something very slutty, it also reminded us that we can't keep waiting like this. If the Ming King had no idea of ​​leaving the city at all, or had been patient and not showing up, the longer the city was locked, the more embarrassing our situation would be."

The knocking was obviously effective. Xu Minghou felt that he was under great pressure. After pondering for a while, he said, "Although it seems that there is no movement in the Ming Palace at present, I still think that Ming must be in a hurry to leave the city and will not wait too long."

"Oh?" Kim Jae-sung's eyes froze: "How to prove it? Or is it because the queen is seriously ill?"

"Not only, a few days ago, the Ming Dynasty's Mansion and Daomen destroyed Huangting Mansion in Yuezhou. After that, the Southern Army of the Great Xia captured Lu Xunyi and others from the Ming Dynasty's Mansion, and have not been detained yet. The Southern Army said that if the Ming Dynasty could not give him an explanation, they would attack the people of the Ming Dynasty's Mansion." Xu Minghou said in a deep voice.

"Hmph, the Xia Dynasty is best at internal fighting, it's not surprising." Jin Zaicheng said contempt.

Xu Minghou's eyes were lowered. He remembered that just now, there was also internal strife within their Jin family...

He didn't dare to continue thinking more, and quickly staggered the topic: "So, even if the queen is seriously ill, if the Ming King wants to save people, he must leave our control as soon as possible to intimidate the Southern Army to release people. Therefore, the humble believe that we must persevere and must not waste all our efforts!"

"Yes!" Jin Jae-sung pondered for a moment, nodded in recognition of Xu Minghou's speculation, and said with a fierce look: "Yes, if he is allowed to come and go freely this time, he must be taken down, otherwise, it will definitely cause a great blow to our control of the Pearl."

Kim Jae-sung really doesn't want to give up halfway. If he makes such a big noise, if he ends like this, his situation will be very unfavorable for him.

Just then, the phone on the table rang, and Kim Jae-sung's face turned black when he heard the phone ring.

But there was no way, and I had to ignore it. I took the phone call: "I am Kim Jae-sung!"

Xu Minghou smiled bitterly, thinking that he might be here to put pressure again. He was not going to ask who it was and turned around and walked outside.

Xu Minghou shook all over and suddenly turned around. He saw Jin Zaicheng staring at the tiger's eyes and shouting loudly: "Chasing, you must not let the King of Ming run away this time!"
