Chapter 111: Counter-plot to get rid of Dong Poison King
Early the next morning.
Wei Yuxiao summoned several generals, including Feng Mang, to have breakfast and talk secretly.
She said to Feng Mang: "I think your analysis last night was very good, that Dong Poison King is very likely to have colluded with the bandit army a long time ago, and last night's scene was staged when a thief shouted to catch a thief." ”
"General Wei, do you also have this opinion?" Feng Mang seemed to see his companion.
Wei Yuxiao nodded: "Actually, since he concealed that he was using poisonous smoke, I was suspicious of him." We will make different battle plans for poisonous smoke and smoke, but he has concealed this important factor. Didn't he understand that any small detail would affect the outcome of the entire battle? Even if he hadn't participated in the battlefield and could excuse himself from not understanding, what about Envoy Li and that kid named Han Bin? Who would they know?"
"Is General Wei saying that the three of them are all people who colluded with the bandit army?"
Faced with the matter of eliminating the traitor, they no longer had the heart to refute Wei Yuxiao as they did in the past.
After all, if it is not good, he will be suspected of being an accomplice of the mole because of his mouth, and there will be no place to reason even if he dies at that time.
Wei Yuxiao said: "It's hard to say that Envoy Li, after all, it is the person hand-picked by Han Zhoumu, I don't dare to say anything."
"But it's hard to say that Han Bin and Dong Poison King. Naturally, Dong Poison King didn't need to say much, everyone was suspicious of him, and he was also the most suspicious person now.
"As for that Han Bin, I just doubt it, after all, he said that Dong Poison King used mist smoke, and he was a person who had participated in the battlefield, would he not understand the difference between misty smoke and poisonous smoke for tactical formulation?"
General Wei has a point. Feng Mang agreed.
The rest of the generals nodded.
Feng Mang said: "The question now is how to find evidence. ”
"Actually, I have a piece of evidence on hand right now. Wei Yuxiao said and took out a piece of parchment.
All the generals present suddenly became excited, and they all looked at the parchment in Wei Yuxiao's hand, wondering what kind of evidence it was.
Wei Yuxiao said: "In the early hours of this morning, the soldiers on patrol found that there was a suspicious person receiving the messenger sparrow, so they stepped forward to catch it, and the stolen goods were seized on the spot, and this parchment was taken off on the foot of the messenger sparrow, and what was written on it was a secret letter. ”
As she spoke, she spread out the parchment and showed it to the crowd.
I saw that there were some messy characters on it, and I couldn't understand the meaning at all.
The suspicious person caught by the patrol soldiers was completely the information given by Wu Liu'er and Wei Yuxiao, and he chose a ** son in the military camp to be forced to become a traitor and act as an outcast.
"The suspicious man who had been caught had confessed that he had been bribed by the bandits, and after receiving the letter, he put it in the crevice behind the stable, and then placed a stone with straw pressed down on it, and then naturally someone would go to fetch it.
"I've had people make traps to fish out the messengers, but unfortunately no one has fallen into the trap until now.
But this letter is another piece of evidence. It took me two hours to decipher the contents of the secret letter.
"As long as you follow these characters according to the strokes, you can parse a string of numbers, and then use the fence method to rearrange the string of numbers, and take each two numbers corresponding to the number of pages and order, and compare them with the civil dictionary issued by the imperial court, and it will form a paragraph. ”
Wei Yuxiao took out another piece of paper and handed it to the generals to circulate: "What is written on this piece of paper is the paragraph that was deciphered. ”
Feng Mang took the paper and read it: "The Poison King has been suspected, you can abandon it if necessary, protect your identity, Wei Yuxiao will not suspect the Han family." ”
"This ...... General Wei, that Han Bin is really a spy! He and Dong Poison King are all in the same group!" Feng Mang was shocked, and after finishing speaking, he found that he was too excited, and couldn't help but take a sip of a cup of tea to suppress the shock.
The rest of the generals were amazed, this secret letter was the key evidence!
"Now let's see how Envoy Li can defend that spy!" said a general proudly.
Betrayal is an act that every general hates, and if you justify the traitor, you will naturally not be treated well by the generals.
"Everyone finished breakfast first, and waited for the trap over there to see if they could catch out the traitor again, if it was successfully fished out, then all the evidence would be complete. Wei Yuxiao said with a smile, signaling everyone not to worry.
"General Wei is reasonable, we just want them to have no chance to refute!"
All the generals laughed, as if they had seen the moment of victory.
So everyone began to enjoy breakfast, and the banquet often resounded with the sound of small talk, unaffected by the defeat of the previous night.
Suddenly, Feng Mang squirted out the food in his mouth, and fell to the ground inexplicably, his face full of pain, convulsions, and his eyes rolled as if he had been poisoned.
This scene frightened everyone present.
"Poison in breakfast! Poison in breakfast!"
The generals shouted in panic, attracting the guards outside to come in and take a look.
Wei Yuxiao immediately asked the guards to examine Feng Mang's body, and asked the military doctor to call over.
At this moment, several more generals were in the same situation as Feng Mang, and they fell to the ground one after another, convulsions in pain.
Every general was terrified.
Soon, the military doctor came.
But at this time, the generals who fell to the ground were no longer twitching, only a line of blood spilled from the corner of their mouths, and they did not move.
The military doctor immediately checked the situation of those generals, but as soon as he touched their pulse, they all shook their heads, and then reported to Wei Yuxiao that the poison was too violent, and those poisoned generals were already dead.
This news once again shocked every living general present.
One of the generals realized something and said, "It's the poison in the tea!" They all drank the tea, but I didn't drink the tea, so they have something to do, and I'm fine!"
"yes, I didn't drink tea either!"
"Who poisoned the tea and wanted to kill all our generals?"
"It's Dong Poison King! It's him! He's an expert in using poison, and if he can poison us without all of us noticing, he must have killed us!"
"You can't let him go! General Wei, your subordinates please order the immediate arrest of Dong Poison King and Han Bin!"
Those living generals said every word, all of them had lingering palpitations, and finally asked Wei Yuxiao for their lives, willing to become the vanguard of arresting Dong Poison King.
Wei Yuxiao decisively agreed, and ordered the arrest of Han Bin and Dong Poison King, and those who dared to resist were killed on the spot!
The generals who were still safe and sound walked out of the camp one after another, gathered their troops and horses, and marched towards the camp of King Dong Poison.
Wei Yuxiao's guards were also guarded around Wei Yuxiao's camp, looking on full alert.
It didn't take long for news of the arrest to arrive.
Han Bin has been arrested, Dong Poison King resisted when he was arrested, poisoned many soldiers, and was ordered by the general in charge of arrest to shoot him on the spot.
In the end, what was brought to Wei Yuxiao was a Han Bin who was tied up with five flowers, and a corpse full of arrows.
