He took a deep breath, then slowly sat down, his hands clenched into fists, clearly going through a fierce internal struggle.
“General Ji, although Mo Ya’s words were offensive, he was telling the truth.”
Han An's voice was deep and firm.
"I absolutely cannot stand by and watch Han Feng grow stronger and threaten my position."
"However, I cannot do anything disrespectful."
Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible hint of joy flashed in Ji Wuye's eyes.
He had anticipated Han An's reaction and had therefore prepared a countermeasure.
“Your Highness, I understand your concerns,” Ji Wuye said gently, “but the current situation leaves us no room for hesitation.”
"We must take action as soon as possible, otherwise once Han Feng has gained enough power, we will be doomed."
Han An remained silent for a moment, seemingly pondering Ji Wuye's words.
Seeing this, Ji Wuye pressed on while the iron was hot: "Your Highness, you don't actually need to take action yourself."
“We can manipulate things behind the scenes to make it look like it happened naturally and has nothing to do with you.”
"Operating in secret?" Han An looked up at Ji Wuye, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
“That’s right.” Ji Wuye nodded. “We can use someone else to make everyone mistakenly believe that Han Feng has treasonous intentions and that Han Feng sent someone to secretly assassinate the king. In this way, everyone will naturally suspect Han Feng and then deal with him, while we can reap the benefits.”
Han An was intrigued, but still hesitated: "Is this really feasible? What if we get caught? Wouldn't we be doomed?"
"Your Highness, rest assured," Ji Wuye said confidently. "I have arranged everything, and there will be absolutely no mistakes."
"As long as we act carefully, no one will suspect us."
Han An took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes: "Alright! Then let's proceed according to General Ji's plan! But remember, we must be extremely careful and make no mistakes!"
"Your Highness, rest assured!" A sly glint flashed in Ji Wuye's eyes. "My men will ensure a flawless execution!"
"That would be best!" Although Han An still looked worried, his eyes were filled with determination.
...0 requests for flowers... 0
"Your Highness, if this succeeds, you will become the true ruler of Han. At that time, the entire country will grovel at your feet." Ji Wuye continued to tempt Han An, his tone filled with anticipation for the future.
Han An nodded, his hesitation largely dispelled by Ji Wuye's words.
He knew very well that this was a risky road of no return.
0 .. .......
But only by embarking on this path can he escape Han Feng's threat and truly become the king of Korea.
"General Ji, I entrust this matter to you," Han An said solemnly to Ji Wuye. "You must be careful and avoid any mistakes."
He was still worried, so he spoke up to remind Ji Wuye.
"Your Highness, rest assured, I will handle this matter without fail," Ji Wuye said confidently.
The three then discussed the details of the plan in detail to ensure that every step was done flawlessly.
A burning ambition ignited in the hearts of the three.
If the plan succeeds, they will be able to control the entire South Korea and become the true rulers of this land.

170. The entire army was wiped out, Jing Ni was captured, and Lü Buwei was stunned.
Xianyang City, the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Lü Buwei was the prime minister of Qin and also the leader of the Luo Wang (Net of Deception).
At this moment, he was sitting upright in his study, toying with an exquisite jade cup in his hand, his eyes deep, as if he were thinking about something.
His face remained calm and undisturbed, as if nothing in the world could shake his state of mind.
Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night.
Lu Buwei's thoughts were interrupted, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
His gaze sharpened as he looked outside.
I saw.
His butler rushed in, his face unusually grave.
"My lord, something terrible has happened!" The butler's voice trembled slightly.
Lü Buwei raised his head, his gaze piercing like a knife as he looked at the steward: "What's making you so flustered?"
The butler took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and reported in a deep voice, "Sir, Jing Ni's assassination attempt on Han Feng has failed. All the assassins she brought with her have been wiped out. And Jing Ni has been captured by Han Feng."
"What?!" Lü Buwei suddenly stood up, the jade cup in his hand falling to the ground and shattering into pieces.
An expression of disbelief crossed his face, and his eyes flashed with horror.
"How is this possible? I know Jing Ni's strength, how could she fail?" Lu Buwei's voice trembled slightly, his heart filled with shock and doubt.
"My lord, it's true! The news is absolutely accurate!" the butler continued, "Not only that, the Straw-Clad Men of the Nightfall Organization were also killed by Han Feng."
"The man in the straw raincoat is dead too?" Lü Buwei's pupils contracted sharply, and his expression became even more horrified.
The Straw-Clothed Man is one of the four fierce generals of the Nightfall Organization. He is powerful and a well-known figure in the martial arts world.
He actually died at Han Feng's hands, which Lu Buwei found unbelievable.
Furthermore, this time he had accepted the mission from Ji Wuye of the Nightfall to assassinate Han Feng, and sent Jing Ni to join the Straw-Clad Guest in assassinating Han Feng.
Lü Buwei was confident that this mission would be an easy one.
But now, the butler tells him that Jingni's entire army has been wiped out, and Jingni has been captured by Han Feng.
This greatly alarmed Lü Buwei.
"what is going on?"
"Jing Ni and the people she brought are enough to kill Han Feng several times over."
"How could their assassination attempt have failed?"
Lü Buwei was unwilling to accept this news...
He stared at the butler with a cold gaze.
Upon seeing this, the steward hurriedly spoke up again to report.
“My lord, three days ago, Han Feng hosted a banquet for people from all schools of thought at his residence. However, apart from the Yin-Yang School’s Grand Master of Fate and the Moon Goddess, as well as a young girl from Baiyue named Yan Lingji, no one else attended the banquet.”
"Han Feng seemed to have lost face, so he ordered the entire city to be besiege and kill the people of the Hundred Schools of Thought."
"Han Feng's move disrupted Jing Ni and Nightfall Man's plans and caught them off guard."
"That very night, Han Feng's men discovered the hiding places of Jing Ni and the Straw-Clothed Man."
"Jing Ni and Ye Mu Suoyi Ke didn't have time to move before they were surrounded by Han Feng's elite army."
"Now, apart from Jing Ni, who was captured and imprisoned by Han Feng, everyone we sent has been killed."
The butler finished speaking in one breath.
His face was still filled with shock.
He was also aware of the terror of Jing Ni.
But unexpectedly, Han Feng caught him.
The butler simply couldn't believe it.
!!
171. Lü Buwei's Suspicion
"This...this is impossible!"
"This is absolutely impossible!"
"How could Jing Ni possibly fail in her assassination attempt?"
"..."
Lü Buwei muttered to himself, still unwilling to believe the truth.
Who is Jing Ni? She is one of the top assassins in his Luo Wang organization.
This time, in order to assassinate Han Feng, they also sent dozens of drug-using assassins to Jing Ni.
These assassins, even the least skilled among them, had all broken through to the Innate Realm.
There are also quite a few assassins at the Grandmaster level.
And believe it or not, there are also the Nightfall organization's Straw Hat Men and Nightfall assassins.
How could such a powerful assassination team possibly fail?
