At the same time, the nobles of the four countries of Qi, Chu, Zhao and Wei received the news one after another. They were all furious and used their power to attack Han.

Some people ordered the King of Han to return the money, some asked him to hand over Ji Wuye to appease the public anger, and some even threatened to raise an army to attack Han. For a time, Han became the target of public criticism.

When Han Wangan received the news, he was completely stunned.

One million gold, what a shocking number!

You know, the annual income of the Korean treasury is only 200,000 gold! After deducting the expenses every year, there is not much left, and he can't even hold a luxurious birthday party for himself.

His ministers told him that the treasury was empty and that he should be frugal and set a good example. In the end, his ministers became richer than he, the King of Han!

Moreover, all this was done silently. If the six countries had not taken action, he probably wouldn't have known the news!

A general who holds military power embezzles a large amount of money without the knowledge of the king. His purpose is obvious!

Thinking that Ji Wuye is still in charge of the defense inside and outside the city, he was suddenly shocked and angry. If he really had any ulterior motives, South Korea might be in danger of being overthrown!

He glanced around the court and looked around several times but did not see Ji Wuye. His heart was cold and his face was as pale as paper. Even when he was sitting on the throne, his body was shaking constantly, giving people a feeling of being shaky.

"King Han, please return the 500,000 gold to my Qin State in full. Otherwise, the Qin cavalry will be here at any moment!" When the Qin envoy in the court saw the King of Han's appearance, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes. He sneered and opened his mouth like a lion, thinking that this time he would bite off a big piece of meat from the State of Han as a step for his promotion.

At this moment, the attack by the Qin envoy became the last weight that overwhelmed the King of Han. Under the heavy pressure of internal and external troubles, he could not hold on and fainted.

The court suddenly became a mess. Some people called for the imperial physician, some watched coldly, and some people retreated quietly with great joy on their faces.

......

The General's Mansion.

"Damn bastard! He fooled all of us!" Ji Wuye chopped off the table with a sword, with a raging fire burning in his eyes, which was filled with tremendous anger and murderous intent!

One month! In just one month! He went from being a great Korean general who was second to none to a figure that everyone wanted to kill!

The nobles of the six countries were jealous, the emperor and his subjects were alienated, and countless people secretly coveted the money in his hands. Without him realizing it, he was forced to the edge of a cliff by Su Xuan. As long as someone gave him a slight push, he would fall into the abyss!

As soon as the incident happened, he sent a large force to surround Zi Lan Xuan, hoping to take back Ye Mu's money and return all the money of the powerful to calm the public anger. However, he did not expect that Zi Lan Xuan was already deserted. Not only that, all those who had anything to do with him disappeared completely. He wanted to take revenge but could not find anyone to take revenge on. One can imagine how frustrated he felt.

Of course, no matter how angry he was, Ji Wuye knew his situation and made a decision after only thinking for a cup of tea.

He recalled all the assassins of Bainiao who could be recalled, used the tiger talisman to transfer the soldiers for the city defense to the general's mansion, and ordered all his personal soldiers to wear armor and hold spears, ready for battle. Now, the general's mansion has gathered thousands of soldiers. As long as he gives the order overnight, they can break into the palace. Once the Queen of Han is captured alive, he will have complete control of the situation.

It was not the best time to launch a coup. In fact, the timing of the coup was very hasty and there was no advance preparation.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but that he can’t!

Because Su Xuan had planned everything already. He sold jadeite glass balls in the six countries except South Korea. His purpose was to prevent Ji Wuye from having time to react when the dignitaries of the six countries made trouble.

The profit from the jadeite glass balls was an extremely secret matter. The Hundred Birds Killer had no way of knowing it. They also didn't know what the large-scale sale of jadeite glass balls meant to Ye Mu. This also led to one thing. When Ji Wuye got the news, King Han was almost getting the news as well.

"Since ancient times, the one with the strongest army and the most powerful horse has become the king. The general holds half of the military power of the Kingdom of Han and has countless money and food. He can replace the King of Han!" The Emerald Tiger flattered Ji Wuye while standing beside him.

"Stop talking nonsense and send someone to bring over 100,000 gold first!" Ji Wuye had already put on his armor and looked quite imposing.

Not long after, the golden gold appeared in front of many soldiers. They breathed rapidly and looked at the gold in front of them with fiery eyes.

The impact of one hundred thousand taels of gold was enormous. Under Ji Wuye's generous reward, the morale of the soldiers present was high and they were all willing to serve.

He did not tell these soldiers about his idea of ​​making himself king, but instead raised the banner of eradicating treacherous officials and supporting the Kingdom of Han, telling them that the King of Han was now bewitched by treacherous officials, and that they were entering the palace to eradicate the treacherous officials!

This is a very reasonable reason and easy to accept. The soldiers present responded one after another and shouted slogans in unison. For a moment, the sound was deafening and magnificent.

Looking at the army's high morale, Ji Wuye felt happy but also couldn't help but sigh.

Why didn't he directly raise the banner of rebellion?

It is true that these generals defending the city are his men, but what about these soldiers?

They respect and fear me because of my power and my status as the great general of Korea. If he loses this status and even wants to rebel, will they still follow me without hesitation?

He was not sure about this except for his own personal soldiers.

Originally, according to his idea, he would use money and generous rewards, use force to establish his authority, and let his personal soldiers execute those who were unwilling to rebel with him. However, after being persuaded by a retainer, he changed his mind.

He told himself that the most important thing right now was to control the situation. One more soldier meant a better chance of winning. It didn't matter whether they were willing to rebel or not, because the moment they rushed into the palace gate, they would have no choice but to go all the way.

The purpose of their existence is to block the palace guards, and as long as he can capture the King of Han alive with his personal soldiers, great things will be expected.

The only thing that puzzled him was that the Hundred Birds Killer who delivered the message to Marquis Xueyi still hadn't returned. Without thinking much about it, he led thousands of soldiers and marched towards the palace in a mighty manner.

In terms of strategy, he admitted that he was not on the same level as Su Xuan, but when it came to leading troops in battle, no one in South Korea could be his match!

Want to eliminate me just by strategy? It's nothing but wishful thinking!

He will tell Su Xuan how great his victory over 100,000 Chu troops was!
