After Lu Yuting finished speaking, she regretted it herself, but she has always been spicy, and because of what happened by the waterhole before, in the face of Li Guanqi, she never found the feeling of facing the emperor, so she did not immediately admit her guilt, but continued to say angrily: "If Your Majesty can't make decisions for the concubine, then the concubine will take revenge herself!" ”

Li Guanqi was happy, this woman's idea is too simple, right? Said teasingly: "You take revenge yourself? How to report? To assassinate Cho Se-hoon? ”

"Yes, if you don't want to die, I will also kill the traitors Cao Shixun and his son!" Lu Yuting said with a firm gaze.

"But don't forget! Cao Shixun is a high-ranking general, and there has always been no shortage of guards around him, and their father and son are also good martial artists. I remember what you just said, you are not Cao Pengxiang's opponent! In this case, how did you kill their father and son? Li Guanqi poured cold water on Lu Yuting in a timely manner.

"I ...... I ......" Lu Yuting couldn't help but be speechless, not knowing how to answer.

Li Guanqi said slowly: "Miss Lu! I believe what you say, and I will not tolerate such a cruel man to remain unharmed. However, everything has to be evidence, and now we have no evidence other than you as a witness, which can prove the crimes of Cao Shixun and his son. On the contrary, he tried his best to protect the Wujiang defense line, but it was a matter known to everyone in the world. At this time, if I don't ask about the innocent, and lock up their father and son to ask for guilt, then I will be the real faint king. If you can't say it, you will provoke a mutiny! ”

"Huh?" Lu Yuting didn't expect things to be so troublesome, it seems that she really thought too simply, she didn't expect anything Li Guanqi said, but she also understood very well that what Li Guanqi said was correct. So he was a little embarrassed and said, "So what should we do?" ”

Li Guanqi pursed his lips, his pupils contracted, and said slowly: "As long as he is a fox, he will eventually show his tail, what we have to do." It is to try to get him to expose his crimes on his own initiative. ”

…………………………………………………………………………

The aftermath of the incident in Xiangyang City has come to an end. Chen Guangxi was killed in battle, all the defenders in the city surrendered, and Chen Yinjie was arrested by Li Guanqi, who had already received the news from the mysterious person, when he tried to abscond in disguise.

After everything was cleaned up, Li Guanqi led the army back to Chengdu, and at the same time ordered the troops and horses participating in the war to assemble in place, but the commanders of the various departments had to go to Chengdu to meet the driver, and specifically pointed out in the decree that in view of Cao Shixun's meritorious service in guarding the Wujiang defense line. Concession and his son Cao Pengxiang went to Chengdu together.

Li Guanqi's will faintly contained a hint of murderous aura, and the commanders of the other military horses could say it, but Cao Shixun muttered in his heart. When he received the will, he did not do it immediately, but gathered his henchmen to discuss it together.

"In my opinion, the general is overly worried!" One of the henchmen was the first to say, "The battle is over. It must be rewarded for meritorious deeds. Therefore, I think that this time His Majesty called the commanders of all walks of life to Chengdu. The main thing is to get a reward! The general has the greatest credit in this counterinsurgency battle, and the reward must be the most, so he called the major general together. ”

Another henchman shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it may not be that simple. In this counterinsurgency, apart from us, His Majesty basically used the 12 guards of the Beijing Division. If you want to talk about meritorious deeds. You can wait until you return to Beijing and then think about it slowly, why do you have to go to Chengdu? And it is especially stated that all the soldiers and horses will not move in place, and only the commander will go to meet the driver alone! In my opinion, there is a good chance that something will happen to the birds! ”

"I disagree!" Another henchman also said anxiously. "Since His Majesty can be called the God of War Emperor, he must also be a smart person, how could he do such a stupid thing as destroying the Great Wall at this time? ……”

All of a sudden, it was difficult for the confidants to reach a consensus, and they quarreled with each other. Cao Shixun didn't say anything to stop it, just closed his eyes slightly and listened quietly.

Cao Pengxiang is young, and the city government is far less deep than Cao Shixun, listening to these people arguing, he couldn't help but get irritable, patted the table and said: "You guys talk about it, but no one says it on the point!" I am afraid that the target of this move is our father and son! ”

"Why did the Major General say that?" A group of cronies couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this. Even Cao Shixun opened his eyes and looked at his son carefully.

Cao Pengxiang saw that everyone was looking at him, so he continued: "Judging from the news from the people who were arranged around the saint, there is suddenly an extra woman by the saint's side. But this woman is not a concubine, she does not stay with His Majesty, and basically does not show up, and is closely protected at all times. Isn't that strange? ”

"What's so strange about that?" A confidant asked, puzzled, "Maybe this is the woman that the saint fancies, but I'll do it when I get back!" ”

"No, no!" Another henchman shook his head again and again and said, "Listening to the description of the major general, this woman is very much like an important witness, so she needs to be protected at all times!" ”

Hearing this, Cao Shixun's eyebrows jumped unconsciously, glanced at Cao Pengxiang, and said, "Could it be her?" ”

"Not bad!" Although his father didn't say her name, Cao Pengxiang also understood who she was referring to in Cao Shixun's mouth, "For more than half a year, there has been no news of her, I thought she was dead." Unexpectedly, she saw the saint! Moreover, the Holy Lord's actions clearly showed that he had believed her words. Therefore, the child boldly speculated that the purpose of the saint to let his father and the child go to Chengdu to meet us this time was to arrest us! ”

Cao Shixun stroked his beard, pondered for a moment and said, "Based on the testimony of that girl alone, the saint should not be able to move our father and son." As you all know, the Holy One is an extremely intelligent man. In this rebellion, my Cao family's credit is not the greatest, but also one of the greatest, before there is conclusive evidence, with the wisdom of the saint, it is impossible to risk a mutiny against my Cao family. ”

"That's what my father said! Could it be that the child is too worried? Cao Pengxiang was a little unconfident.

"Nope! What you say makes a lot of sense. Cao Shixun said categorically, "If the saint does this, it is estimated that he is going to do something to our father and son!" But why did he dare to do this? ”

Everyone present also fell into deep thought, and suddenly, a thought flashed through Cao Pengxiang's mind, and he hurriedly said: "Is it ......" (to be continued......
