Seeing Lao Cao leaving the hospital, Gonggong Li turned his head to look at Ye Zhiqiu and said:

"It seems that Lord Ye and Lord Cao have a lot of friendship...... It seems that Lord Cao is obedient to your words. The old slave has been watching coldly for decades, and he once felt that Lord Ye had never interacted with others, and had always been accompanied by a lonely shadow, but he didn't expect it to be the case. ”

"Father-in-law Li, this day has changed, if you don't find a place to shelter from the rain, you will be drenched in soup."

"Lord Cao is your shelter from the rain?"

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and smiled: "He's not, the saint is." That's why I have to do everything for the holy, and as long as the holiness is safe, I am safe. Gonggong Li, you say, isn't this the truth? ”

Gonggong Li felt that Ye Zhiqiu's words were always reasonable, or in other words, he could always say the reason you wanted to hear. But he didn't know why, there was a faint uneasiness.

"The matter has come to this, Lord Ye and Lord Cao are already in it, but even if Lord Ye plans to pretend to surrender to the fake prince and take him down outside the Chengxi Gate, this matter is still very dangerous. You must know that there are many dreams at night, and the day of the return of the saint is still early, if the false prince makes waves during this period and makes some moths to kill some loyal and righteous people, will it be difficult for Lord Ye to try them over one by one as he did today? The life of the old slave is not a pity, and today it can be avoided from Lord Ye's troubles, but others may not be willing to do this, what should Lord Ye do then? ”

"This ......" Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect it to come to this point, and in turn, he could be told the key point by Gonggong Li.

"So according to Gonggong Li's meaning, is there any clever plan?"

"The longer you delay, the easier it is to cause trouble. Since it is possible that the Holy Lord is soft-hearted, and since Lord Ye is bent on eliminating the harm for the community, why not find an opportunity to do it now and secretly get rid of this scourge! Now that Lord Cao has the military power to defend Gyeonggi, as long as the two of them join forces, no one will be able to stop them. In addition to the ironclad evidence of the Jinquan horse statue here, the fake prince also has a pigeon harrier secret letter sent from the blue sea, and he must have kept such an important thing close to him. If Lord Ye can find a way to get this secret letter, then when he sees the saint in the future, this is all evidence to show his loyalty to the king, and the saint will not not believe it. ”

Ye Zhiqiu pondered for a while, did not speak, and seemed to be a little moved.

Gonggong Li secretly thought, this Ye Zhiqiu is not simple. I want to take this opportunity to ask for merit and reward, but I also want to get out of the way. The only wish he has in front of him is to count on Ye Zhiqiu and Cao Feihu to get rid of Li Chongyan, the fake prince, for him, and block the cold arrow in the dark for the Yin Mu bloodline, so that Emperor Wen and the crown princess can rest easy. But Li Chongyan died, and Ye Zhiqiu became a hidden danger who knew the ins and outs. It is suggested that he will take the secret letter to find the saint, and according to the saint's nature, he will inevitably find a way to get rid of him secretly, so the secret of the saint's life experience can be said to be preserved.

It is too dangerous for a person like Ye Zhiqiu to stay by the side of the saint, and it is better to go for the saint.

It's just that it's not easy to seek skin with the tiger, will the shrewd Ye Zhiqiu believe his words?

Gonggong Li actually has no bottom in his heart.

Ye Zhiqiu thought for a while, and Fang sincerely saluted Gonggong Li and said: "Thanks to my father-in-law for being willing to think about it for me, I actually couldn't think about how to get out before, since the prince has such an important pigeon harrier secret letter, then the saint should be able to believe in the painstaking efforts of me and Lord Cao." Gonggong Li is right, a person like the fake prince will be more dangerous if he lives for one more day. There's a great time in front of you......"

Seeing that he was not suspicious, Gonggong Li secretly thought that Amitabha Buddha had made up his mind, and heard him say that there was a good time, so he hurriedly asked, "What time?" ”

"The false prince told me to come to my house for a banquet the day after tomorrow after I had taken care of my father-in-law's affairs. Mr. Cao was also invited......"

"Lord Ye wants to ...... him in the mansion?"

"Not bad! Every time he came to drink with us, he drove lightly, without a few guards with him, and at most he brought a personal prince. I can't help him when he's in the palace, and he's willing to go out of the palace and throw himself into the net, isn't that a godsend? ”

When Gonggong Li heard that he was going to do it the day after tomorrow, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "This is very good! Lord Ye is really resolute and decisive. ”

He saw that Ye Zhiqiu had made a plan, for fear that he would change his mind, so he hurriedly picked up the small porcelain bottle and unveiled the beeswax.

"So...... I'll leave the rest to the two adults. Gonggong Li raised his head and poured the porcelain bottle into his mouth, and then picked up a cold tea on the table and sent it down his throat without the slightest hesitation.

"Alas, life in the world is like smoke and clouds. However, it is always those grievances and hatreds that cannot be seen through...... In fact, after thinking about it all my life, I may have forgotten what I wanted in the end. As he spoke, Gonggong Li picked up the letter and handed it over.

Ye Zhiqiu took it with one hand and smiled slightly: "Fortunately, I, Ye someone, have never forgotten what I wanted at the beginning." ”

Gonggong Li squinted at him and asked, "Speaking of which, I never knew what Lord Ye wanted, and it seemed that Lord Ye was not interested in anything. ”

"Oh? Does this mean that Gonggong Li thinks, or does the saint think that I, Ye Zhiqiu, are not interested in anything? ”

Gonggong Li smiled and didn't speak.

Emperor Wen often invited ministers to the tea garden to taste tea and play games, and occasionally mentioned to Gonggong Li which minister's temperament was, but Ye Zhiqiu had been to the tea garden seven or eight times, and Emperor Wen never mentioned a word.

Once, Gonggong Li mentioned it sideways, and Emperor Wen said meaningfully: "He played three games with me, and each game was just right, which is rare." ”

"Actually, I, Ye, am only interested in one thing in my life."

"Oh? What is it? Gonggong Li couldn't help but be curious.

Ye Zhiqiu got up and walked to him, and whispered in his ear: "This country is covered." ”

The five words gently, like thousands of small insects suddenly biting on the face at the same time, the tea cup in Gonggong Li's hand fell to the ground and smashed it.

He asked in a trembling voice, "You...... What did you say? ”

Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile: "You asked me to take the secret letter to find Li Houcong, didn't you just want him to kill me to keep his secret." He has been hypocritical and righteous all his life, and you also say that I don't know it? Yes, Cao Feihu outside the door did obey me, but the bag of treasures he took was not the prince's idea, I asked the prince to bring it. If not, how can you bring everything clean? ”

Gonggong Li's face changed greatly, his throat coughed, and the feeling of dizziness and nausea came to him, and he could no longer sit on the chair, and his curled body fell to the bluestone ground.

Ye Zhiqiu squatted down and said with relief: "But don't worry, I will definitely kill the prince for you, the baby is immortal, how can I induce Li Houcong to show his flaws?" ”

When Gonggong Li heard him call Emperor Wen by his name, he didn't have the slightest sense of respect, knowing that he had fallen for the trick, he was so angry that he trembled. However, the poison of Hedinghong had already set in, and he used the little strength he had left to ask, "You...... Who are you? ”

Ye Zhiqiu whispered: "You are just a Yin Mu barbarian, and this Wanhua Emperor Capital is originally my family's thing...... I am the Chang family of Zhangzhou, and I am the royal family with a righteous heart! ”

He looked at Gonggong Li's gaze stagnant, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and his lips were bruised, obviously dead.

"Actually, there are some things that you have to get to the bottom of? Before he died, he didn't know that he had been deceived, why was it so painful? Alas......" Ye Zhiqiu muttered to himself, carefully taking the letter into his arms.

Now that the matter is over, it is time to prepare the lamb stove to welcome the prince the day after tomorrow.

There are still two days, and I have to think carefully about how to use Lao Cao.

He pushed open the door of the house, and before he knew it, it was noon.

Outside the door, the clouds cover the sun, and the wind and snow subside.

Lao Cao stood anxiously in the atrium, pondering about today's siege.

He saw Ye Zhiqiu pushing the door out from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"You go find someone to clean up the corpse, I'll write a letter, and then send someone to the palace, which can be regarded as revenge on the false prince."

"Lord Ye, you say...... So, is that really a fake prince? Lao Cao asked with a bitter face.

If time can be turned back, the last news that Lao Cao wants to hear in all things is that the prince is a fake.

"It's all so conclusive, why is Lord Cao still suspicious here?" Ye Zhiqiu frowned.

"No, no, no, I mean......" Lao Cao looked around, pointed to the house, lowered his voice and said: "I mean, that old thing is dead, if we burn all the evidence, bury it, and then sew it up, then no one will know that the prince is fake?" In fact, the prince is real or false, what are we doing? As long as he can protect our high-ranking officials, he will be fake......"

Lao Cao looked at Ye Zhiqiu's face as he spoke, and he had no confidence when he said the last sentence.

Ye Zhiqiu couldn't cry or laugh, this Cao Feihu wanted to teach himself to judge the situation in turn, it was really an axe.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect Lord Cao to be so knowledgeable about current affairs."

Lao Cao laughed awkwardly for a while, Ye Zhiqiu's words made him unable to tell whether he was praising him or mocking him.

"Master Ye thinks what I said makes sense?" Lao Cao only wanted to persuade Ye Zhiqiu to stop and pretend to be dumb with himself, so maybe he could really hide this matter.

Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said, "It makes sense, but Gonggong Li, who was lying inside, just said something to me, I think it makes more sense." ”

Lao Cao was happy when he saw Ye Zhiqiu's approval at first, but suddenly turned his head when he heard his words, and he was stunned: "What did he say?" ”

"Lord Cao, you should understand by now, why did the fake prince kill Gonggong Li?"

"Because...... Because Gonggong Li knew that he was a fake. ”

"Do you know he's fake now?"

"I, I...... I can pretend I don't know. Lao Cao was suddenly anxious.

"Are you willing to pretend, is the prince willing to believe it? Isn't Gonggong Li inside also thinking about calming things down? ”

"This ......," Lao Cao felt sweat oozing from his head.
