Inside the Prince Li's mansion, the gloomy lights reflected on Prince Li's face, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. His eyes fell on a secret report on the table, and he was secretly proud in his heart: "Humph, no matter how smart the King of Qin and the King of Jin are, they will never guess this move of mine."

He slowly stood up, walked to the window, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked towards the distant palace. King Li secretly thought in his heart: "As long as this operation is successful, I can completely control the government, and even... replace him."

"Your Highness, all preparations have been completed." A black-clad guard appeared silently behind King Li and reported in a low voice.

"Very good." King Li nodded, turned back to the desk, picked up a piece of letter, and handed it to the guard, "Send this letter to the border and be sure to hand it to the general in person."

The guards took the order and left, while King Li continued to ponder, with a blueprint for the future constantly emerging in his mind. However, he did not know that at this time in the palace, the King of Qin and the King of Jin had already begun intensive deployment.

In the imperial study, the emperor looked at the King of Qin and the King of Jin solemnly: "Are you sure that King Li has really made some unusual moves?"

The King of Qin and the King of Jin looked at each other. The King of Qin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, we have solid evidence that King Li has indeed made unusual moves. He has secretly mobilized troops with ill intentions."

The emperor frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, Fifth Brother, Seventh Brother, you two will each take up one part and make sure the capital is safe."

"Okay." The King of Qin and the King of Jin responded in unison.

-----------------------------------

At the same time, in Prince Li’s mansion, Prince Li was immersed in his own plan and was unaware of the tense atmosphere in the palace.

"Your Highness, news has come from the front line that the general at the border has received your letter and everything is going as planned." A confidant walked in and reported in a low voice.

"Very good." King Li nodded with satisfaction. "As long as the border is in chaos, the capital will definitely be in chaos. At that time, I can take advantage of the opportunity to act."

However, he did not know that after receiving the letter, the general at the border immediately sent the news back to the palace. After the emperor learned of this, he immediately ordered the border to strengthen its defenses and closely monitor the movements of King Li.

Night fell again. In the Qin Palace, Li Qing still stayed quietly in the hidden room, staring out the window, as if he could see through the darkness. He was fully focused and never relaxed, always paying attention to the changes in the situation.

Suddenly, a black-clad guard came in hurriedly and whispered, "Lord Li, there is news from the border that King Li's secret envoy has been intercepted, and the generals at the border are guarding it closely."

Li Qing nodded, feeling a little relieved: "Very good, continue to be vigilant and ensure the safety of the capital."

The guard took the order and left, while Li Qing continued to stare out the window, praying silently in his heart that the storm would pass smoothly.

However, the development of the matter was beyond everyone's expectations. A few days later, news suddenly came from the capital that a fire had broken out in Prince Li's mansion and Prince Li had disappeared in the fire, his life or death unknown.

When the news reached the palace, everyone was shocked. The emperor immediately ordered a thorough investigation to find out the truth.

"Fifth Brother, Seventh Brother, what do you think?" the emperor asked in a deep voice.

The King of Qin frowned and said, "This is a strange matter. King Li has always been cautious, so it is impossible for him to get into trouble easily."

King Jin nodded, "Yes, I'm afraid this is King Li's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. We must be more vigilant."

The emperor nodded and made a decision in his heart: "Pass the order down, the capital is under martial law, no one is allowed to enter or leave without permission. Make sure the safety of the capital is ensured."

At the same time, King Li, who was far away at the border, was looking at the secret report in his hand with a sneer. He knew that his plan was half successful, and next, as long as he added another fuel to the fire, he would be able to completely control the court.

"According to the plan." King Li said coldly.

The border general took the order and left, while King Li continued to ponder, with a blueprint for the future constantly emerging in his mind.

---------------------

A few days later, a shocking news suddenly came from the capital: General Zhao Yong was assassinated at the border, and the cause of death was unknown. This news immediately caused an uproar in the court and the country.

"If Zhao Yong is killed, there will be chaos at the border!" King Jin said anxiously in his study, "I'm afraid King Li's plan has already begun to be implemented."

King Qin frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Zhao Yong's death must be the work of King Li. He wanted to divert our attention by creating chaos at the border. We must take immediate action to prevent the situation from getting out of control."

King Jin nodded in agreement, and the two men immediately summoned their confidants to discuss countermeasures urgently.

As night fell, the atmosphere in the capital became increasingly tense. The number of soldiers patrolling the streets increased several times, and the defenses at the city gates were also strengthened. The spies of the King of Qin and the King of Jin moved around, trying to find King Li's whereabouts.

At the same time, Yi Lei also received the news, and alarm bells immediately rang in his heart.

"King Li is indeed not a simple person. His plan is advancing step by step. We must not take it lightly." Yi Lei said to himself, and then ordered Fu Lu Shou to tell the news to each royal palace.

When the King of Qin and the King of Jin heard the news, they immediately gathered together to discuss emergency countermeasures.

However, King Li seemed to have been prepared, and his whereabouts remained a mystery. A few days later, news came again from the border that a mysterious army suddenly appeared at the border and began to harass the border.

"The origin of this army is unknown, but their style of action is very similar to that of King Li's men." He analyzed in the study, "King Li is indeed plotting in secret. We must take action immediately."

"We must send our best soldiers and generals to the border to provide support," the King of Qin said firmly. "At the same time, we must also strengthen the defense of the capital to prevent King Li from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos."

A few days later, the situation at the border became increasingly tense, and the harassment of the mysterious army intensified. In the capital, the spies of the King of Qin and the King of Jin were active everywhere, trying to find the trace of King Li.

Finally, during a secret operation, the spies discovered an important clue - King Li's secret envoy was active in the capital, trying to contact certain officials in the court.

"This is a great opportunity. We must catch this secret envoy and find out King Li's plan." King Qin said in the study, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.

The King of Jin nodded in agreement, and the two men immediately gathered their confidants and began to formulate a detailed plan to capture the secret envoy. A few days later, in a secret mansion in the capital, the secret envoy was having a secret conversation with an official, when suddenly, a hurried sound of footsteps was heard outside the door.

"who!"
