On the way back to the pavilion, Zhao Yun asked with a puzzled face: "Military advisor, didn't you tell the lord that you only need to bribe Zuo Feng for this trip, why did you bring a heavy gift to the general He Jin." ”

Li Tao laughed loudly: "Zilong, this is prepared, Zuo Feng is a eunuch, now that the ten permanent servants are in power, it is indeed the best to propose by him, but Zilong should not forget, this Youzhou assassin Liu Yu is a nobleman of the Han family, and most of the powerful people in the court will deal with him for him, Your Majesty will weigh the pros and cons, and he will definitely ask the general He Jin." ”

"I see!"

Zhao Yun nodded, finally understanding the mystery.

The next morning, Zhang Rang took the lead in raising the matter, and suddenly it was like a stone smashed into a lake, causing ripples in an instant.

Opposition voices abound, and even more bluntly said that Liu Yi's move was to cut the land as the king and intend to rebel.

Liu Hong listened to the chatter and noise, and his heart was restless, and he asked He Jin, "General, what do you think?" ”

He went in and out of the column and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this move is feasible, opening up the territory and expanding the territory is a great achievement, benefiting the country and the people, and the reason why Liu Yi was able to pacify Goguryeo is precisely because His Majesty has a degree of employing people." ”

Liu Hong glanced at He Jin in surprise, this brother-in-law is not hot-headed today, and he has not refuted the eunuch's proposal for the first time, weird, weird.

He Jin said again: "Your Majesty, the position of captain of Goguryeo is not trivial, you need a general who can fight well, and there is one minister, who can be guaranteed to Your Majesty." ”

Liu Hong said solemnly: "Who is the general talking about? ”

"He Yong, the governor of Hedong."

For this He Yong, Liu Hong vaguely remembered that this person seemed to be He Jin's nephew, about thirty years old, born with a big waist and a round belly, and he served as the governor of Hedong County before, and he was also promoted by He Jin.

In the main hall, those officials who opposed it were suddenly speechless, and after a long time, it turned out that the general He Jin was eyeing this position, and if the dispute continued, wouldn't it be thankless.

Seeing this, Zhang Rang immediately arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that He Yong has the courage of ten thousand people, and he will go to Goguryeo, and he will continue to expand the territory for His Majesty and promote the prestige of my Han Dynasty." ”

Liu Hong's words to Zhang Rang in the past few years were all convinced, and he made up his mind immediately, and He Yong was the captain of Goguryeo and stationed in the border city.

Three days later, when Liu Yu's messenger came to the mansion of Yuan Kui, the Taifu of Luoyang, and expressed his intentions, Yuan Kui shook his head and sighed: "It's late! ”

Immediately recounted the affairs of the court, the startled messenger was speechless, and hurriedly said after half a ring: "Lord Taifu farewell!" ”

The messenger hurried back on horseback.

……

A few days later, Li Tao and Zhao Yun returned to Liaodong County, and Liu Yi had to give Li Tao a thumbs up, this mountain is high and the emperor is far away, He Jin sent a He Yong over, how high can the waves be stirred?

Moreover, Goguryeo was already a subordinate state of Liaodong County, and no matter who came, they had to follow Liu Yi's orders.

"Lord Qiyu Taishou, there is a person named Qi Zhou, who is asking to see him outside the mansion!"

Qi Zhou?

What is he here for?

Li Tao said in a deep voice: "Lord, let this person come in for questioning." ”

"Hmm!"

When he was young, a man dressed as a scribe walked in, raised his hand and said, "Qi Zhou has seen Liu Junshou in the Assassin's Mansion. ”

"Excuse me!"

Liu Yi pretended to say, and then asked Qi Zhou to sit down, and asked: "Qi Zhou is engaged, what is the so-called reason for this trip?" ”

"I heard that Liu Junshou broke Goguryeo, and I want to see the scenery of this grassland, so I came to visit Liu Junshou."

Don't be so shameless!

Liu Yi has already scolded Qi Zhou in his heart, and he can say such shameless words, but unfortunately now that the will has been made, he is afraid that when the time comes, he will ask for a bamboo basket to fetch water, and it will be empty.

"Of course, if you want to go, the official will send someone to escort you all the way."

Qi Zhou smiled back and said: "Don't worry, this Xiangping City is an outstanding person, and I want to stay for two more days, I don't know how Liu Jun will be." ”

Liu Yi laughed and replied, "It doesn't matter how long you want to stay!" ”

In fact, Qi Zhou's idea, how could Liu Yi not know that this guy wanted to wait for Liu Yu's documents to be delivered to Liu Hong, and the position of King of Goguryeo would be his.

The two had their own concerns, chatted hastily for a few words, and Qi Zhou said goodbye and left.

In the middle of the night.

At the post house where Qi Zhou was resting, two men in black quietly mixed in, and while Qi Zhou was asleep, they stabbed him in two.

The next day, the entire post house exploded, and the news of Qi Zhou's death in Youzhou spread all over the city.

"Lord, something is wrong!"

At the door of the backyard, Zhao Yun shouted in a low voice, anxious, and seeing that there was no movement inside for a long time, he raised his voice again and shouted a few times.

Hearing someone call him, Liu Yi opened his confused eyes, looked at Xiao Zhang Ning in his arms, and sighed: "Fragrant! It smells so good! ”

After a while, Liu Yicai walked out slowly, and a cold wind blew, shivering from the cold.

"Zilong, why are you so flustered?"

Zhao Yun hurriedly replied: "Lord, something happened, Qi Zhou was killed in the post house, the military division has passed, and the rumors in Xiangping City are now spreading." ”

"What?"

Liu Yi suddenly sobered up, this thing is too awkward! It's not good for you to die, why do you want to die in Xiangping City.

Bad luck!

"Let's go, let's take a look!"

Liu Yi raised his feet and walked out, but Zhao Yun immediately stopped him and said, "Lord, I'm afraid you won't be able to go." ”

"Why?"

Zhao Yun hurriedly explained: "I don't know who made Yao, it is said that Qi Zhou was harmed by you, the lord, and there are still evidence left in the room of the post house." ”

"!"

Liu Yi couldn't help but burst into a foul language, this is too, after a long time, this Qi Zhou ran over to die, and after death, he had to splash dirty water on himself.

"Go! What can't go, people are not afraid of crooked shadows! ”

Immediately, the two hurried to the post house, only to see that the post house was full of people around them, commenting from time to time, talking with relish, and there was never a shortage of people eating melons.

"Taishou-sama has arrived!"

Zhao Yun roared loudly.

These people immediately turned their heads and looked at Liu Yi as if they were judging a prisoner.

Liu Yi strode in and came to the wing where Qi Zhou was killed, and the person lying on the bed was the Qi Zhou that Liu Yi saw yesterday, but at this time, his neck had been cut off, and the blood had soaked the quilt and turned red.

"Strategist, have you found something!"

Liu Yi asked.

Li Tao got up and sighed and said: "There was no trace of a fight before he died, and there was the smell of agarwood in the house. ”

"As for the waist card left at the scene, it is too guarded."

Li Tao handed the waist card to Liu Yi, and after a closer look, it was really the waist card of the Taishou Mansion officials.

There is no doubt that he was framed!
