On the night that Liu Tong left Sancheng, Zhou Yao walked into the Stone Camel Mansion.

"General, Doctor Zhou Yao asks to see you." The stone camel, who was melancholy in the mansion, suddenly heard the news of Zhou Yao's visit.

Zhou Yao asks to see?

For Zhou Yao, Shi Camel knows, although he is the son of Zhou Huan of the old Xiangguo, but he is about the same age as himself, and his ability level is also very unusual.

At this time, Zhou Yao asked to see, what did he do?

At this time, the stone camel is also very contradictory, don't look at him, at this time, he followed Liu Tong to control the situation in Sanguo, but from the bottom of his heart, he was even more conflicted and uneasy.

After all, Shi Camel is a member of the Sanguo country, and he has been a loyal minister and good general of the Sanguo for several generations, so how did he become a rebel minister of the monarch under house arrest?

At this time, Zhou Yao came to visit, what did he come to do?

The stone camel is really contradictory, can you see it in the end?

"Master, Lord Zhou is still waiting outside the door, do you see it or not?" The doorman asked for a long time.

"See---, please wait in the hall of Lord Zhou." After thinking about it, Shi Camel replied affirmatively. In any case, Zhou Yao is also the son of Lao Xiangguo, and he is also the old man of Sanguo, presumably he will not harm himself!

After tidying up a little, the stone camel came to the hall, and Zhou Yao was already waiting here at this time.

"I wonder what advice Lord Zhou has for coming late at night?" After seeing Zhou Yao, Shi Camel asked.

Zhou Yao turned around and bowed his hand and said, "Doctor Zhou Yao has seen the general, and he came to visit late at night, so I hope I will forgive me for the trouble." ”

After a brief politeness, Shi Camel said to Zhou Yao: "Don't talk about disturbing or not, but I'm sure that you must have something important to discuss when you come here at this time, please sit down ---" After that, the two sat down in front of the desk face to face.

"Please have something to say." After sitting down, the stone camel said to Zhou Yao.

"Okay, in that case, I'll ask." So Zhou Yao also asked politely: "The first question I want to ask is, are the guards of the palace at the moment your soldiers and horses?" ”

Well?

As soon as Zhou Yao exited, Shi Camel was very surprised, "I don't know what the adults are asking for?" ”

Zhou Yao smiled: "The general must not ask me why I am like this, you just answer yes or no?" ”

"It's really our team, does that make any difference?" For Zhou Yao's questioning, the stone camel was very strange.

"Good ---" Zhou Yao nodded affirmatively, and then continued to ask: "The second question I asked is, did Liu Tong ask you to do this thing of sending troops to garrison the palace?" ”

One question was sharper than the other, which made the stone camel feel a little frightened, "This? Shi Camel hesitated for a moment, and then replied, "It was indeed Liu Tong who asked me to do this." What do you want to do by asking this question? ”

Zhou Yao nodded, "I just wanted to confirm one of my own guesses, but now it seems that my guess has indeed been confirmed, and you have indeed been taken advantage of." ”

"Am I being taken advantage of?" Hearing this, Shi Camel looked at Zhou Yao with wide eyes, "How can I be used by others?" Who am I being used for? ”

After hearing this, Zhou Yao knew that he was not very clear about his situation at this time, so he said directly: "Of course you are being used, and this person who uses you is Xiangguo Liu Tong." ”

"I was used by Liu Tong?" This time the stone camel was even more surprised, "I was used by Liu Tong, why did he use me?" ”

Zhou Yao knew that it would take a little time to explain this problem to Shi Camel, so he asked: "General Shi, I ask you if the monarch has actually been controlled by you since your army took charge of the palace guards, and since then, all orders for the dispersal of the country have been issued by Liu Tong. In other words, for a period of time, Sanguo was actually controlled by Liu Tong, right? ”

"That's right, Liu Tong told me that the new monarch wanted to find out the cause of Lao Junshang's death, and he and I would be implicated at that time, so he asked me to lead troops to control the situation in Sanguo. You also know that when Lao Jun was injured in hunting, I was also at the scene, and once it was traced, I really couldn't get out of it. I'm worried that I will be traced and have to follow Liu Tong's orders! Stone Camel said.

Oh---, so that's it.

Zhou Yao finally understood the reason, "The monarch wants to track down the cause of the death of the first monarch?" How could there be such a thing. The reason for the death of the first monarch is clear and true, and he died of hunting due to old age and decay, what is there to find out? Even if you are tracked down, nothing will happen. The big deal is that you haven't fulfilled your responsibility to protect, what else can you do? ”

"However, Liu Tong said that the new monarch will use this matter as an excuse to purge all the ministers of the scattered country, and he and I will be the targets of the purge. As you know, I, the general of Sancheng, was promoted when your father was prime minister, and now that the new monarch has come to power, it is very likely that we old men will be cleansed. I was unwilling to be purged, so I followed Liu Tong to put the monarch under house arrest. ”

After listening to Shi Camel's words, Zhou Yao let out a long sigh, "Hey---, how can you be so confused?" Let me tell you this, even if the new monarch wants to purge the ministers of the scattered country, it will not be able to clean your head, but he Liu Tongcai should be the first to be purged. ”

"I can't clean my head, I also have a part in the death of the old monarch, you said that the new monarch will not clean me. Why is that? After listening to Zhou Yao's words, the stone pressed on the head of the stone camel finally fell, and he hurriedly asked.

Zhou Yao looked at the stone camel, and didn't feel a little funny, thinking that these soldiers are stupid, and they don't know the reason for being used, and a person can be considered stupid when he arrives at this job, so Zhou Yao said to the stone camel: "I don't know the deep-seated reason, but one thing is certain, that is, the new monarch is very uninterested in Liu Tong, an outsider, and has the idea of getting rid of him." And Liu Tong himself is also well aware of this, so he wants to stop this matter. But he was a civil official and an outsider, and he didn't have much foundation in the scattered country, so he thought of you, so he made up a reason to control you in his hands, and then used your army to control the new king. ”

After listening to Zhou Yao's words, Shi Camel finally understood, "This dog 0 Liu Tong, I was not interested in this person originally, an outsider knew to please the king, so he stepped into a high position step by step, and now he uses me to control the new monarch." I, I, I...."Thinking of this, the stone camel didn't know what to say?

"General, what do you want to say?" Zhou Yao asked when he saw this.

"Although you said so much, I don't know if the king will forgive me for my mistakes, if the king catches me for this mistake, I will still be spared."

The old confusion has been resolved, but the new confusion has come around the heart, and the stone camel is really at a loss.

"The general doesn't have to worry, according to my observation, Liu Tong has already left Sancheng this afternoon, why don't we go to the palace early tomorrow morning to explain the situation to the monarch and ask for his understanding?" Zhou Yao knew that in order to resolve the current crisis of the scattered country, Shi Camel was the key person, and as long as he could bring Shi Camel over, his plan could be truly implemented.

Of course, Shi Camel knew that Liu Tong was going to Qianyi, so he replied: "Okay, I will listen to my lord, and I will enter the palace early tomorrow morning." ”
