The book is picked up again.

"You don't have to be polite, get up quickly."

"No" Yan Liangwen was ugly, and the two of them were not polite after hearing Li Zhi's words, and immediately stood up.

After standing up, the two of them saluted Cao Cao slightly, and said in unison: "I've seen Cao Gong later." ”

These two knew that the relationship between Cao Cao and Li Zhi was very good, so they didn't dare to be rude.

"Hmm" Cao Cao nodded slightly, raised his hand and said, "The two generals are polite, please hurry up." ”

After the salute was over, Yan Hao asked Li Zhi curiously, "Lord, shouldn't you be in Jizhou now?" Why is it here? Did something happen? ”

"Hmm" Li Zhiyan nodded, and then said with a solemn face: "During the period of time when Ben Hou was no longer in Luoyang, those hidden mice began to emerge one after another!"

The reason why Ben Hou came back quietly was to find out all these people! ”

"What?!" After Wen Chou heard Li Zhi's words, he glared, "Those clowns who jumped off the beam actually came up at this critical moment?!" ”

All the generals loyal to Li Zhi under Li Zhi knew that there was indeed a force of other people under Li Zhi's command.

But because Li Zhi never made a move, they could only endure it and let these people exist.

Now, hearing Li Zhi say that he wanted to eradicate these people, Yan Liangwen and Chou were both very excited.

Especially Wen Chou, in his opinion, he, the important minister entrusted with guarding Luoyang, didn't even find those ground rats, isn't this a slap in the face?!

Wen Chou can't wait to strangle this group of hidden people to death one by one!

So after he heard Li Zhi's words, he immediately clasped his fists and saluted, and asked: "Please hand over this matter to your subordinates, and your subordinates will definitely pull out the group of ground rats one by one, leaving no one behind!" ”

"No" Li Zhiyan shook his head, he didn't intend to let Wen Chou deal with this matter.

"Lord!" Wen Scandal Yan was in a hurry, he thought that Li Zhi did not trust him, so he planned to make a military order.

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Zhi waved his hand and interrupted: "General Wen Chou, it's not that Ben Hou doesn't believe you, but Ben Hou plans to take action himself!"

Some of them have followed Ben Hou for a long time, and Ben Hou wants to ask him what he thinks and why he betrayed Ben Hou! ”

After finishing speaking, Li Zhi's face was quite melancholy.

Through these years of covert investigation, he found that many veterans who followed him were also bought by the enemy and became the enemy's secret agents, which made Li Zhi very sad in his heart.

He thought that he had never treated these people badly, even if these people were retired and had disabilities, but Li Zhi had always regarded them as his subordinates.

Whether you want to pay for the military or

He has not forgotten these people for the gifts of the New Year's holidays.

He really couldn't understand why these soldiers, who were originally just outcasts, betrayed him, was it just for the sake of wealth?

"......" Yan Liangwen was ugly, and the two glanced at each other after hearing the words of reason.

Then Yan Liang looked at Li Zhi with a worried face and said, "Lord, or your subordinates should do it, after all, they have also followed the lord for so long......"

"That's it!" Before Yan Liang finished speaking, Li Zhi shook his head and said with a firm face: "You don't have to persuade anymore, Ben Hou has made up his mind to personally ask those people why they betrayed Ben Hou!" ”

With that, he headed outside.

Although his hall was not small, it could not accommodate all the officials who came, so he planned to receive them in the courtyard.

After Cao Cao and the others saw Li Zhi leaving, they did not hesitate and followed Li Zhi to the courtyard.

By the time all of them reached the courtyard, the place was already occupied by hundreds of people.

At this moment, a voice came from the crowd, "My lord, why did you summon me and wait?" Could it be that something is going on? ”

After Li Zhi heard this voice, he immediately looked at the person who spoke, but this look made his face change, because this person was one of the traitors!

The traitor was a little hairy by Li Zhizhi's direct gaze, and after coughing dryly, he asked cautiously: "Why does the lord look at his subordinates so much, but what's wrong with his subordinates?" ”

"Alas......" Li Zhiyan sighed, shook his head, and said helplessly to the people in front of him: "Everyone, you have been following Benhou for some years, and you must also know Benhou's character.

As long as those of you who betrayed Benhou are willing to stand up and admit their mistakes, Benhou will not be to blame! ”

Li Zhi planned to give them one last chance, to be honest, if it wasn't for being forced to be helpless, Li Zhi really didn't want to touch these people.

It's not that I'm afraid of what will happen to them if they move, it's that I think of my comrades' friendship over the years!

"What? Someone betrayed the lord?! ”

"It's impossible, we are all brothers in life and death, who would betray the lord?"

"Who is it to stand up quickly, don't embarrass the lord!"

"That's right, it's just a mistake, the lord won't embarrass you, hurry up and stand up."

"Which bastard betrayed the lord? Get out of here! ”

Just after Li Zhi's words were finished, everyone present began to talk one after another, and the people around them no longer trusted as usual, but were full of suspicion.

After hearing Li Zhi's words, dozens of people's faces changed abruptly, and a few people quickly lowered their heads, they were all traitors!

The strangeness of these people is also caused

The suspicion of the people around him, "Lao Wang, why do you have such an expression?" Are you a traitor?! ”

......After hearing this person's words, the people around him immediately stayed away from this old king and looked at him with resentment.

Seeing this, Lao Wang nodded with an ugly face, walked out of the crowd, knelt down for Li Zhi with a plop, and said with tears in his eyes: "My lord......"

After saying a word, Lao Wang couldn't speak anymore, choked up and couldn't speak.

......Seeing this, Li Zhi was silent for a while, then stepped forward, slowly helped Lao Wang up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, don't cry anymore."

No matter what reason you betrayed Benhou, but now that you have lost your way, Benhou no longer blames you. ”

"Woo woo ......" Lao Wang cried even more miserably after hearing Li Zhi's words, and snot made a five-body bow to Li Zhi with a handful of tears, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

The subordinates did not intend to betray the lord, but were forced to be helpless!

Someone kidnapped his subordinate's old mother and asked his subordinate to work for him, but his subordinate couldn't help it......"

When he had finished speaking, he began to cry again.

"What?!" After Li Zhi heard Lao Wang's words, his face twisted, he helped him up, and asked seriously: "Are you saying that someone kidnapped your mother and then forced you to work for him?" ”

"That's right" After Lao Wang nodded with teary eyes, he said while sobbing: "Two years ago, a person suddenly found a subordinate and asked his subordinate to work for him.

Originally, his subordinates saw that his origin was unknown, and when they said that kind of thing, they thought that he must be an enemy, so they planned to cut him with a knife!

But he suddenly took out the copper bracelet that his mother had worn for many years......"

After saying that, his tears flowed again, and he couldn't say any more.

"Alas......" After Li Zhi heard his words, he let out a long sigh and said with guilt: "I don't blame you for this matter, it's Ben Hou's thoughtlessness."

Okay, don't cry, go back and rest.

Don't worry, as long as your mother is not dead now, Benhou will guarantee that your mother is okay! ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, lord......" Lao Wang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Li Zhi's words, and thanked Li Zhi again and again.

Although he stood up just now, he didn't know the bottom in his heart.

Because he felt that even if Li Zhi forgave him, his mother would probably be difficult to rescue.

He had already planned the moment he stood up, and if his mother really died because of him, then he didn't plan to live either.

But now after hearing that Li Zhi promised to rescue his mother, Lao Wang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he has been following Li Zhi for a long time, but knowing Li Zhi's ability, he feels that Li Zhi will definitely be able to save his mother.
