Chapter 483: Murderous Heart

"What the hell is this all about? Gao Changgong planned an ambush for Shiro outside Jinling City, how could I not know? Didn't Gao Changgong report this to the imperial court? And this time Shiro suddenly left Yecheng, is it also because of Gao Changgong? Gao Wei said angrily.

"In fact, when Chen and Qi were at war, as the commander of the Huaibei garrison, King Lanling planned an ambush against General Xiao, which is normal, after all, General Xiao did not sign an armistice peace treaty with our Qi State at that time! It's just that the king of Lanling didn't report the matter to the imperial court, and let the Du family privately dispose of Du Youxin, which makes us all think that this ambush was just Du Youxin's doing, and this matter is purely a personal grudge that Du Youxin wanted to take revenge on General Xiao after the failure of the operation to seize the general business to create a secret! Mutipa explained.

"But after General Xiao's reminder, the last general felt that this matter was not so simple! King Lanling was able to send his deputy general Wei Xiangyuan to pretend to be Du Youxin to Jinling City, and also stayed in the general casino, and even gambled with General Xiao on the gambling table a few times, and at that time, Chen Guo had carefully checked the merchants of our Qi State, but still did not find any clues, it can be seen that this Wei Xiangyuan had someone from the Du family to help him cover up, so that General Xiao and they did not find out that Du Youxin was fake! Mu Tiva said with a look of sudden realization.

And after the failure of this ambush, when the merchants who were seized returned to Yecheng and went to settle accounts with the Du family, the Du family used thunderous means to mercilessly let the real Du Youxin commit suicide and apologize, and also compensated all the losses of those merchants, so that this matter was quickly calmed down, which is really strange and suspicious! They are the Du family, they actually let Du Youxin apologize for the death for a few small businessmen in front of the door, so as to calm the anger of the general firm, this Du Youxin is the son-in-law of their Du family, and at that time, Chen Guo and our Qi State were still hostile relations, and their Du family did not need to make such a big sacrifice! Unless they want to hide the truth of something! Mutipa said in a vivid voice.

"What truth are they trying to cover up?" Gao Wei was murderous and said coldly.

"This Du family has always been based on not getting involved in the court party struggle in the Qi State, but they would agree that King Lanling let his subordinate general Wei Xiangyuan pretend to be his son-in-law and go to Jinling City to assassinate General Xiao, and after failure, he decisively let his sister-in-law commit suicide, so as to quickly calm down this matter, it can be seen that this Du Youxin must have colluded with King Lanling!" Mutipa said lightly.

"This Du family actually colluded with Gao Changgong? What do they want to do? Want to rebel? Gao Wei scolded angrily.

"If they want to rebel, they won't! After all, the Du family has a huge power in Yecheng, and the family has a lot of wealth, and they have marriages with many princes and ministers, if they wanted to plot wrong, they would have acted a long time ago, how could they still unite with Gao Changgong, who was still leading troops in Huaibei at that time? Mu Tipo hurriedly helped the Du family speak, because if the Du family was also involved in this matter, then the situation would not be under the control of him, a leader in the middle who only came to power by relying on his mother's relationship and sycophants!

"Well, you have a point! The Du family is powerful, even I have to be afraid of three points, if it weren't for their dedication to business, they never involved in government politics, let alone me, even the first emperor would have attacked them! And if they wanted to join forces with the army to rebel, it was a general like Hu Luguang who not only held military power, but was also in Yecheng at that time! But why did this Du family unite with Gao Changgong to fight Shiro? Gao Wei also agreed with Mutipa's statement.

"That's not easy, because their targets are all General Xiao! After all, the fireworks, firecrackers, white sugar, perfume and other products produced by General Xiao's General Firmhouse are all very best-selling commodities, and they have earned a lot of money for their General Firm, and the Du family is of course very envious of this! Just now, the King of Lanling had just defeated the Xiao family in Linying County and took away the powerful firearms of General Xiao's troops, which was the time when a lot of manpower and material resources were needed for research, so these two people hit it off and joined forces to deal with General Xiao! Seeing that Gao Wei agreed with his statement that he had set aside the Du family, Mu Tiva pointed the finger at Gao Changgong's side even more firmly!

"According to your statement, could it be that Shiro left Yecheng in such a hurry and returned to Xuzhou because he was worried that this Gao Changgong still had a connection with the Du family, and he was afraid that he would be assassinated by them if he stayed here in Yecheng?" Gao Wei said with a frown.

"That's right! Although Gao Changgong has now been deprived of military power by His Majesty, his reputation and prestige in the army still exists, and General Xiao has also defeated many generals of our Qi State, if these people are instigated by Gao Changgong and take action against General Xiao, then General Xiao can only stay here in the palace all the time and dare not go out? Mutiva fanned the flames and said.

"No wonder Shiro has always stayed in that small courtyard, and he didn't leave the palace to go shopping in Yecheng, and even the southern restaurant of their general trading house no longer went! I thought it was because Shiro liked to drink and have fun with the queen and concubine, but it turned out that Shiro was afraid that Gao Changgong would be bad for him! Why didn't Shiro tell me about it! If I had known earlier that Gao Changgong still had ill intentions towards Shiro, I would have killed Gao Changgong immediately, so that Shiro could stay in Yecheng with peace of mind and have fun with me and Xiao Pian! Gao Wei said with great regret.

"Maybe General Xiao doesn't want His Majesty to be embarrassed! After all, King Lanling is still very prestigious, General Xiao just came to Yecheng, and even His Majesty just knew that he King Lanling had already gotten the news from the ministers of the court, and then immediately rushed to the palace, knelt down outside the palace, and asked to meet His Majesty! It can be seen that there are still many people in the court who support King Lanling! "Mu Tiva constantly mends the high long gong.

"In fact, in my heart, I have long wanted to kill this Gao Changgong, thinking that I was born in the royal family, so I dare to be disrespectful to me, and say that state affairs are family affairs! The world of this Qi country belongs to me alone, does he want a piece of the pie? If I knew that Gao Changgong was plotting against Shiro like this, I would definitely kill Gao Changgong without hesitation! Alas, Shiro just thinks too much, and he doesn't look at my determination to kill! Gao Wei shook his head and said with a sigh.

"But now that we have found out that Gao Changgong has joined forces with the Du family, and there are many ministers in the court who support him, it seems that Gao Changgong will not be able to stay!" Gao Wei seemed to have made up his mind and said fiercely.

"Your Majesty is right! There are many things that must be prevented, and if they are ready to rebel, it will be our turn to be caught off guard! Seeing that Gao Wei had made up his mind to execute Gao Changgong, Mu Deva said excitedly.

"Okay, then I will immediately issue an order to kill Gao Changgong!" Gao Wei said murderously.
