After checking the information, Xu Chen put the paper in the water and mashed it.

"The lord is really very human."

Xu Chen kept thinking about the two plans in his mind.

Zhang Yu asked Guo Jia to give Xu Chen an order and made two plans.

Xu Chen stayed alone in the study for two hours, and he didn't go to bed until late at night.

When he got up early the next morning, Xu Chen didn't care about eating, and once again put the plan in his mind a few times.

An hour after dawn, Cai Mao sent someone to summon them.

Cai Mao summoned them almost every day to discuss things with them, and they were all used to it.

On this day, Cai Mao received the news of Zhang Yu's increase in troops, and Zhang Yu increased his troops by 50,000 again.

At this time, Zhang Yu had already established several large camps around Xiangyang, and had completely blocked Xiangyang's contact with several other places.

It seems that the big war is about to begin.

Cai Mao said to everyone: "Zhang Yu has mobilized nearly 500,000 troops, and I am afraid that the war is about to begin." You have a way to break the enemy. ”

Asking about the way to break the enemy is what Cai Mao has to ask every day, and he still has a little luck.

If there is a way, he will be able to keep his throne and keep his glory and wealth.

But there was silence at the bottom.

Cai Mao sighed secretly in his heart, and then said: "We are fully prepared, nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses, Xiangyang City is strong, and now with Cao Mengde's help, Xiangyang City is solid." ”

Cai Mao had no choice, she had to cheer up her subordinates.

Everyone didn't debunk Cai Mao, and they all believed the nonsense of this bad old man.

After a while, everything that should be said has been said, and the things that should be discussed have been discussed.

Cai Mao was about to announce her dissolution and go home from school, but Xu Chen stood up.

"Tell the prince that his subordinates heard something in the market, and the matter is very important, and I ask the prince to start investigating." Xu Chen came out and said.

Cai Mao's face was stunned, then she returned to normal, raised her hand and said, "What's the matter, let's talk about it." ”

"The subordinates heard that a captain guarding the city at the east gate was extremely dissatisfied with the moment, thinking that our army would be defeated, and spreading the theory of surrender, and the subordinates thought that this matter was important, and this person was still a relative of the lord, and the impact would be even worse, and asked the lord to personally arrange for his cronies to investigate." Xu Chen said.

Cai Mao was furious, slapped the teacup on the table and said angrily: "Is this really the case? ”

The army is pressing, Cai Mao is forced to go crazy, how can he not be angry when he hears that someone is eating inside and out.

"There are many rumors in the market, and the lord must carefully verify to see if someone is deliberately spreading rumors to divide our army, or if it is really something." Xu Chen said.

Xu Chen's words were too clever, and Cai Mao had to check it all of a sudden.

Whether it's a rumor or a real thing, it's very serious.

Cai Mao nodded, he had calmed down and knew how to deal with this matter.

Everyone didn't dare to say much, this thing was too taboo.

Captain Dongmen is his relative again, and this Cai Mao will know who it is immediately.

It was a child of his cousin's family, and he arranged it himself.

It is said that Cai Mao arranged many of his relatives to serve in the army, which helped him control the army.

Cai Mao announced his disbandment.

After everyone left, Cai Mao called his personal guard commander and said, "You will immediately work with Cai He to secretly investigate Wang Li, the captain of the East Gate, and you must not cause panic and let too many people know." ”

The commander of the guards is the old retainer of the Cai family, and he has followed the Cai family for three generations, and Cai Mao believes it very much.

The commander of the guard, given the surname Cai, followed them with the surname Cai since he was a child, and grew up in Cai's family.

Commander Cai went to find Cai He, the brother of the Cai Mao clan, and the two began to investigate.

After investigating for a long time, he went back to tell Cai Mao that night.

Cai Mao met the two in the study.

"How's it going?"

Cai Mao is very concerned about this matter.

"My lord, my subordinates have found some clues, this Wang Li has indeed publicly spread unfavorable news about our army many times, and also asked several good families to prepare, let them sell all their family property, and it is best to exchange it for Zhang Yu's silver ticket."

"Recently, every night, he went to the restaurant to accept banquets, and three days ago he had a big quarrel with a county lieutenant, Liu Liang, claiming that he was going to kill the other party."

This Cai Commander told Cai Mao the results of the investigation, Cai Mao was furious, and coughed continuously and said: "Beast, if it weren't for this king, he would be nothing, and now he dares to do this." ”

Cai He on the side persuaded: "The prince is angry, this kind of person should be severely punished, otherwise the impact will be huge, and his subordinates suggest that the prince continue to investigate, I am afraid that this matter is not so simple." ”

Cai Mao took two sips of water, and then said slowly: "You continue to investigate, you must investigate clearly, and in addition, go to the one named Liu Liang to see why the two are conflicting, and whether anyone deliberately wants to frame Wang Li." ”

The two took the order and left.

This Liu Liang escaped and came back, so he lived in the inn, and there was only one person.

Such a person is easy to deal with, just take it away secretly.

That night, this Commander Cai took the token of the palace and quietly took Liu Liang to the side room of the palace in the middle of the night, without attracting anyone's attention.

"I'll ask you, if you answer honestly and dare to lie, you will die a miserable death." Commander Cai said in a deep voice.

This Liu Liang trembled with fright, and then said: "Big adult, may I ask, little little"

"Okay, let me ask you, you had a conflict with Wang Li, the captain of the city guarding the city, and had a fierce quarrel before, what is the so-called matter?" Commander Cai asked.

This Liu Liang was so frightened that he trembled again, and then said: "The adult spares his life, the adult spares his life, the little one later learned that he was a relative of the prince, and he also regretted it very much, and went to him twice to apologize, but this Wang Li didn't see the little one at all, and just accepted the villain's apology." ”

This time, Liu Liang spoke neatly, but this was also scared.

Commander Cai frowned, feeling as if something was wrong.

"I didn't ask you this, tell me, what happened that day, why did you quarrel?"

Liu Liang was frightened, and he couldn't speak clearly for a while, and then Commander Cai slowed him down for a long time before he said: "That day, it was originally a banquet, and several families invited villains to go, and General Wang was also invited. ”

"It's normal, but when the villain says that Zhang Yu is a devil, if he fails, the family property will be copied by him, and we are not allowed to own land, and a household can only be fifty acres at most. At this time, General Wang scolded the villain for being a coward, and the villain was also angry at the time, drank a little wine, scolded him for being a traitor, and maybe colluded with Zhang Yu. ”

"The villain really didn't mean it, he drank wine at the time, and after saying that, General Wang almost killed the villain. He was furious, smashed the cups and chopsticks, and finally lifted the table. ”

"At that time, there were a few other people who were eating with us, and I remember their names, so adults can go and investigate."

This Liu Liang explained everything and explained in detail.

Commander Cai, let the soldiers take care of Liu Liang, and not let him come into contact with anyone.

Leaving the room, this Commander Cai always felt that something was wrong.
