In the palace, the small courtyard where Xiao Yao lives is strictly guarded by the palace forbidden army led by Mu Tiva outside, and Xiao Yao's musket guards are guarding inside, and Xiao Yao and Mu Tipo are talking secretly in the room!

"Is General Xiao serious? King Lanling turned out to be the mastermind behind the assassination of General Xiao by the generals who instructed those eldest grandsons Hongluo that day! Mutiva said in surprise.

"Although there are many people in your Qi Imperial Court who hate me Xiao Yao to the core, there are not many people who can plan this street assassination in a short period of time! And Gao Changgong has a deep hatred with me, he is invincible in his life, and is regarded as the god of war in the army by your Qi army soldiers, but he was defeated twice by my Xiao Yao in Xuyi County and Xiao County, and also killed thousands of his subordinates, so even if I sign a peace treaty with your Qi country, he will not give up his revenge on me! Xiao Yao said with a sneer.

"On that day, I suddenly appeared outside the city of Yecheng, and even His Majesty heard the report of the Han messenger and knew that I had come outside Yecheng, so the only people in Yecheng who knew that I came to Yecheng at that time were the ministers who participated in the court meeting at that time! And the generals of the eldest grandson Hongluo have a humble status and cannot have contact with the ministers this time, so they can only rely on the people in the palace to tell the news to Gao Changgong, who did not participate in the court meeting at that time and has been outside the palace all the time! ”

"Because when Gao Changgong was in Huainan, he used to be the boss of Changsun Hongluo, so he is also familiar with these generals of Changsun Hongluo, so that Gao Changgong can inform these generals of the news of my coming to Yecheng in time, so these people immediately went to the street and assassinated me when I entered the city!" Xiao Yao analyzed.

"But this assassination incident, General Han has been thoroughly investigating for a month, but he has found nothing! I heard that General Han investigated all the eunuchs and maids in the palace on the day General Xiao came to Yecheng, and there were indeed a few eunuchs who left the palace without permission, but these eunuchs were suddenly wiped out, so all the clues were cut off, and General Han couldn't track it down anymore! Does General Xiao have real evidence to testify against King Lanling? Mutipa asked nervously.

"Nope! Didn't you say that those eunuchs who left the palace without permission had been killed by him, even Han Changluan, a powerful person like him, couldn't find out, how could I, a person who stayed in the palace all day, have clues! Xiao Yao shook his head and said, of course he couldn't expose the beggar gang, they were an important force for Xiao Yao to ambush in Yecheng.

"Well, that's a bit tricky! Without evidence and evidence, how can we make a move against the King of Lanling? Although King Lanling has now been deprived of military power by His Majesty, he still has a very high reputation in the hearts of the soldiers! And General Han has been secretly protecting him, so even if His Majesty wants to kill King Lanling, His Majesty has never been able to find a reason to attack King Lanling! Mutiva said with a frown.

"Your Majesty wants to kill someone, when does it become necessary to have real evidence?" Xiao Yao smiled and asked rhetorically, which really made Mu Deva speechless.

Yes, this His Majesty wants to kill people, he only cares about his mood, and he never cares if there is evidence!

Last year, when Hu Luguang, the pillar of the country who held the power of the army and was a supreme minister, His Majesty also had no evidence at all, that is, after listening to a few unsubstantiated words from himself and Zu Yan, it aroused His Majesty's murderous intent, and then he decisively took action against Hu Luguang, and asked Liu Taozhi to strangle Hu Luguang, a general of Qi who has a higher status in the army than Gao Changgong and is more important, with a bowstring on the Cool Breeze Palace!

"Of course, in addition to Gao Changgong being the mastermind behind this interception and assassination incident, I still have a secret of Gao Changgong in my hands, I don't know what the relationship between General Mu and the Du family, a prominent wealthy family of your Qi Kingdom, is?" Xiao Yao asked suddenly.

"The Du family is a famous family in our Qi country, not only has thousands of family wealth, rich and rivals the country, but they also have a close relationship with the imperial court, not only many royal relatives have married them, even the princess, several have married into their Du family! However, these noble families think very highly of themselves, and of course they look down on us who were born as slaves, so although the mother and the last general are now deeply favored by His Majesty, we still don't have much contact with the people of the Du family! Mutiva said embarrassedly.

Then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked in shock: "Could it be that this Gao Changgong is secretly colluding with the Du family?" ”

"Last year, when I hadn't returned to the army, there was a big incident outside Jinling City, which was about the Du family, I don't know if General Mu had heard of it?" Xiao Yao asked with a smile.

"Is it the incident where the Du family of the Qi Kingdom set up an ambush on General Xiao outside Jinling City? Of course, the last general has heard of it, and your Chen State still used this incident as a reason to launch an attack on our Qi State in the Huaibei region, and finally let General Xiao return to the army, and once again led the forward brigade of Megatron to reinforce Huaibei, but Gao Changgong was defeated by General Xiao and occupied the entire Xuzhou! Mu Ti Po continued to pat Xiao Yao's ass and said, not feeling sad at all because his country was defeated and the land was occupied.

"The Du family's ambush on me this time is actually related to Gao Changgong!" Xiao Yao said with a sneer.

"Something to do with Gao Changgong? Didn't someone from the Du family do this? I heard that Du Youxin, the unscrupulous son of their Du family, wanted to steal the formulas of those novelty products in your general firm, so he followed the caravan privately and lurked in Jinling City, and lived in General Xiao's general casino under the banner of the Du family, and did everything possible to curry favor with General Xiao, but when he went to the general workshop, he suddenly became difficult and wanted to assassinate General Xiao! In the end, he was wiped out by the guards of your general trading house in one fell swoop, but this Du Youxin has already absconded back to Qi State Ye City! ”

"Later, your general trading firm seized the goods of our Qi merchants and asked them to come back to Yecheng to spread the word, saying that your general trading firm treated Du Youxin as a distinguished guest, but he wanted to assassinate General Xiao, so he was very angry about this assassination incident, and asked the Du family to hand over Du Youxin, otherwise they would refuse to return the goods of the Qi merchants! Later, because of the huge power of the Du family, it was over just by ordering this Du Youxin to commit suicide, and even His Majesty could not continue to investigate the matter! And your general trading house also refused to return the seized goods on the grounds that the Du family did not give a reasonable explanation, causing many merchants in our Qi country to go bankrupt! ”

"Why did this matter go to Gao Changgong? Isn't it all because of the Du family's Du Youxin? Mutipa asked, puzzled.

"It seems that the power of this Du family in the court of your Qi Kingdom is still very large, and this matter is directly suppressed like this!" Xiao Yao said with a sneer.

"No way! Because this Du Youxin is a descendant of the Du family, he committed suicide and died, so that the entire court did not dare to ask about this matter anymore! Mutipa said embarrassedly.

"So you don't dare to investigate this matter in detail, so you don't know that this matter is related to Gao Changgong now?" Xiao Yao suddenly realized.

"If this matter is related to Gao Changgong, it means that Gao Changgong has colluded with this Du family! But this Du family is famous in Yecheng, and they are not involved in the party disputes of the imperial court! Mutiva said puzzled.
