The capital of the jewel king, the mansion of General Lei Ya.

Lei Ya is the general of the border fortress who leads a town alone, and he is controlled by the prince. He was urgently recalled by the Ministry of Military Affairs in the name of debriefing.

After Lei Yu returned to the capital, he immediately sent someone to send the letter of the letter of the seal to the Ministry of Military Affairs for reinstatement, and at the same time sent the famous assassin and a number of gifts to the Prince's Mansion, and he himself returned to the house to rest for a while, waiting for the Ministry of Military Affairs to summon him.

After learning that Lei Yu had returned to the capital, his colleagues and subordinates came to visit him in an endless stream. After Lei Qiang finished socializing, he changed into his regular clothes, and at this moment, under the support of servants and several relatives, he was feasting on wine and delicacies in the back house.

At this time, the Central Eight Ministries and the Prince of Chu were busy discussing the new system, and they lacked skills, and the inspection ministers of the Eight Ministries jointly tried Levy's case, so they had no time to take care of anything else. After Lei Yu knew for sure, he let out a long sigh of relief: "I can finally relax!"

"It's better to be a king. In the face of the melodious sound of silk and bamboo in the hall and the graceful dancing of the Maiko, Lei Qi suddenly felt unaware, and stuffed the food into his mouth as if he was hungry, without caring about the image, "I really have enough of the place where the birds don't." ”

"That's right, my lord, you should come back to enjoy a few years of blessings, and the family is looking forward to your return. Why don't you hand over a fold and ask for a transfer to the military department. Like an adult, he knows military affairs, has a real town, is stationed in a bitter cold place, and in terms of merit and qualifications, it is more than enough to be a chief in the military department. The servant wasted no time in patting the horse.

"It's not that I'm in love with military power, but I really can't play with someone else. As he spoke, Lei Qi took a sip of fruit wine.

"It is the general's courage and courage that can be exchanged for the scenery and moon that we are waiting for, and only the general's willingness to keep the hardships can be exchanged for our food and jade and laurel. A certain talent, a salute to the general. A clear voice came from the steps outside the hall, and a middle-aged martial artist showed his figure and walked in.

"Oh yes, Great Warrior of Gar. Please, please!" Seeing that it was Er, Lei Qiang hurriedly stepped forward, quickly straightened his clothes, and cordially took his hand and invited him to take a seat.

Lei Yu instructed: "Come on, immediately remove the banquet, and I will have a few drinks with the great martial artist of Jia'er." ”

"It's a certain harassing general, so you're welcome. Cane humbly responded.

Jia Er is the senior staff of the prince, and the walk represents the will of the prince, and the general's palace does not dare to slack off. Although he can enter and leave the general's mansion freely, he does not come in directly without passing through the communication, and he is by no means idle.

Lei Yu understood that Prince Chu couldn't take the time to meet him, and Jia Erding had been instructed by Prince Chu in advance to visit after he handed over the famous thorn. He did not remove the banquet, and hurriedly dismissed the musicians, kabuki, servants, and miscellaneous people, leaving only a few core personnel of the general's mansion to accompany him.

"Is the situation on the other side of the Biansai?" After the two sides were seated, Ga'er skipped the cold noise and asked directly.

"Prince Lao is worried, Bian Sai Jingping, especially the mutual market is smooth. Lei Qi said vaguely.

When it comes to grasping the situation in the border areas, the DPRK and China mainly use the system of newspapers, concerts, and scouts. However, the Di Bao and the Song often only talk about the branches, not the details, especially the attitude and opinions of the Biansai Town General's private affairs, which cannot be seen only by the Di Bao and the Song Zhang.

According to common sense, Lei Qiang should visit Prince Chu before going to the Ministry of Military Forces, report on the defense of the border fortress in detail, determine the caliber and then report to the Ministry of Military Affairs. This is not just a question of a letter that cannot be explained clearly and thoroughly, but a matter of attitude and intimacy.

Gal's arrival at the door faintly has the intention of considering the prince's closeness to Lei Yu and further wooing him. Therefore, Lei Qiu's few general words obviously will not let Canary achieve the desired goal.

The attitude towards the Biansai aliens, especially towards the Diyan and the Wuxi, was divided into two factions - hawks and doves. The hawks have always advocated the division of the Di Yan and Wu Xi ethnic groups, and have tried their best to suppress the living space of the two ethnic groups. Not for anything else, one clan is good at domesticating scaly wildebeests, and the other is good at smelting and forging, and once fused, it will be an extremely difficult opponent. The doves advocated the pacification of the two ethnic groups, and set up mutual markets in many places, and the two sides were in short supply of goods and conditionally opened up trade, so as to ease the tension between the two sides.

Although the hawks and doves have different views, attitudes, and methods toward the Di and Wu ethnic groups, they have one thing in common, that is, they are vigilant and vigilant against the Di and Ukrainian ethnic groups. Two thousand years ago, the two races were one. Because of internal strife and different development directions, coupled with the interference of external factors, it was divided into two tribes until it evolved into two races.

On the northwest side of the dynasty, there is also an unusually fierce tamarin. After completing the internal integration of the clan a few years ago, it expanded aggressively and caused a lot of harassment to the dynasty.

The hawks insist on the policy of repression because they are worried about the reintegration of the Di and Ukrainian ethnic groups. Perhaps the existence of the Di and Wu tribes was conducive to the dynasty's suppression of them. The attitude of the doves towards the Di and Wu tribes is relatively relaxed, and it is nothing more than using them as a buffer zone for the Tamarins and a restraining force for the Tamarins.

In short, these two schools of thought have their own merits, and they have been arguing for many years, and it is difficult to reach a conclusion. For the Di and Wu ethnic groups, there is a subtle state of both pulling and fighting.

Lei Yu understands the characteristics of the prince. When something is not clear, he never takes a stand and takes sides. On both sides, the Prince was neither explicitly in favor nor clearly opposed. But there is one point, once the prince makes a statement, it means that he is completely sure, and if he speaks against it at this time, it is not as simple as being transferred from the side.

And before he accurately grasped the dynamics of the DPRK and China, especially the attitude of the prince who was not allowed to eat it, Lei Qiang felt that it was inappropriate for him to express his views. As a result, the steps he can take are lackluster, and maintaining the status quo is the only option.

No fault is merit.

When Canary asked about Di Yan's suspicious case, Lei Qi even said that he was stupid and had not made any substantial progress.

Lei Qi is actually not too stupid. For thousands of years, dynastic forces have always been present in the affairs of the Di and Wu tribes. He has always turned a blind eye to the people in the dynasty who have entered the range of activities of the Di and Wu tribes, neither asking nor interfering. Besides, being able to slaughter almost two villages under the supervision of the border army, such a ruthless method, Lei Qi instinctively thought that it was better to be less troublesome.

Of course, if something so big happens, you can't just ignore it. As a result, several batches of people related to the case were changed, and all they came into contact with were some scattered information, and only Lei Yu could barely piece together an approximate total amount with this information. But no one dared to speak out, and repeatedly ordered those who came into contact with the case to remain silent.

Sometimes, you have to play dumb to live longer.

Jia Er was not impatient, and in the process of accompanying Lei Qiang, he vaguely hinted that the case might have something to do with the Praetorian Guard.

After being away for a long time, Lei Er was silently tasting what he had said, and Gar actually pointed the finger at the Praetorian Guard's subordinate camp with extremely vague hints in the east and west.

Lei Qiang was shocked in his heart, this time he was summoned back to the capital to report on his work, could it be that he was actually using him as a pawn against the subordinate battalions? The tone of Jia'er's conversation this time was different from the style of conveying the instructions of the prince, could it be that Jia'er's words secretly carried private goods? Who let Jia'er infiltrate these meanings?

Lei Yu suddenly felt that one head and two were big.

Again, some things can't be avoided if you want to.

After sending away Jia'er, Lei Yu only left one of the core children of the clan to talk to, and sorted out the recent affairs of the royal capital. He found out that the bigwigs of the DPRK and China wanted to target Levy. And Levy doesn't need to think about it to know that he is a king.

The battle between the lord and the king?

Only then did Lei Qiang realize that he had been inadvertently pulled into a deeper vortex.

"How can I choose this specially!" Lei Yu couldn't help but complain secretly.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Gar secretly gave Lei Que a second choice. The period before the next time Gar (or someone else) comes to him is the period of consideration. This time, whether short or long.

Or - hesitate and lose.

Speaking from the heart, Lei You's heart is naturally inclined to the noble lord. They both belong to solidified vested interests. The so-called new system is to move their cake and gradually split and subdivide their interests. It is almost inevitable that the new system will be met with strong resistance. As the spokesman of the noble lord, the big bosses of the DPRK and China, out of consideration for their own interests, will put aside their previous differences and cling together, in the hope of delaying the implementation of the new system.

Judging from the results, the case of the Di and Wu tribes has achieved the effect of dividing the Di and Wu tribes. Combined with various signs, the mastermind behind it has come out - hawks. Use the case to blame Levy for sniping at the king's new system...... This method, one link after another, is meticulous and vicious.

Thinking of this, Lei You's scalp was numb, and the cold air kept running up his spine.

Metropolitan Government Office. Levy's trial is ongoing.

In fact, no new evidence has been added, and the interrogation has been stalemate. Because Levy refused to admit his guilt, the presiding judge did not hesitate to use coerced confessions, and various torture methods were used one by one. Levi was sealed with the Xuan vein, and he couldn't use his qi to protect his body, and his skin was full of flesh. Even so, the presiding judge did not get the desired result. Fortunately, he has been working hard for many years, but he has only suffered some skin injuries, which look shocking, but he has not hurt his internal organs.

In the gloomy and cramped prison center, Levy's heart sank like a boulder to the bottom of the sea. Rao is that he is tenacious and mentally prepared before, and this moment is mixed with negative emotions such as indignation, sadness, and loss.

Just imagine, although they were born at the bottom, they were all treated like this by the king's close attendants. Aren't those rootless "untouchables" like duckweed in the raging waves, crushed by gestures?

After a few days of connection, news came in from the outside, like a ray of sunlight shining through the sky covered with lead clouds. It is said that some martial arts halls, under the contact of people with hearts, will carry out voice teaching and rescue, and the news has also spread to the Shadow Leopard Battalion.

On the matter of whether to cooperate with the Budagokan, Lian Ke expressed direct concern. If the subordinate battalions of the Praetorian Guard cooperate with this kind of thing, it is easy to be caught, and even more brutal suppression will be ushered in. In the worst-case scenario, the subordinate battalion is even at risk of being banned.

Sometimes, the alleged risk is not a reason to terminate the action, but the expected return is an excuse to demagogue the action.

"Economic ...... The Budokan has lobbied many times, and I have heard the details of its plan before deciding whether to give it a try. Among them, the dangers are all borne by me. Yes, hopefully. ”

Levi clenched the note in his hand, the handwriting was undoubtedly written by Lian Ke. For several days, it was a one-sided message, but this time, it was a request for a reply.

As a sentry officer of the Praetorian Guard, Levy must not be reckless at all, and everything, even the most inconspicuous, is related to the fate of the subordinate battalion, and he can't help but be cautious and cautious. What's more, this matter is indeed full of danger from beginning to end, as Lian Ke said.

Levy faltered. This is not because of whether the so-called rescue plan is involved, but how to convey his opposition to Lian Ke's side.

Although there is information to communicate, Levy has too limited information from the outside, so limited that it is difficult to outline the whole picture. In the case of information asymmetry, it is superfluous to engage in any action. Levy doesn't like the feeling of being passive at every turn.

In the evening, the warden's trembling hand handed the food in through the narrow food delivery opening, and paused slightly. Knowing that this was waiting for his reply, Levy quickly scribbled a "no" on the guard's hand with the handle of his spoon.

Through the handle of the spoon, Levy could visibly feel the guard's hand tremble strangely. Although there had been no physical contact with the guard in the previous days, nothing inappropriate could be heard through the sound of him placing the dishes. Levy then reached out with lightning speed, holding the guard's wrist firmly before he could retract it, his fingers pressed against his veins.

In order to prevent the other guards from noticing, Levi had already determined that the guard had been injured, albeit only for two breaths.

"Could it be that he was exposed, that he was tortured?" even though it was unlikely, Levy had to think in this direction.

If so, then did he confess, which piece of information was leaked, and would they use the guard to deceive him later?

Levi was glad that he didn't have a charcoal pen fired with chopsticks just now, and handed out the note. Otherwise, it's a proper handle.

And if this guard is really exposed, it not only means that this passage is completely abolished, but it may also be used by them to expand the attack area and implicate many people to come in. This is by no means what Levy wants.

In the past few days, the news of Levy's killing of two sergeants of the gendarmerie has spread. In this regard, people have a lot of discussions, some are gloating, some are down, some are unknown, and of course, some are questioning and sympathizing.

But in any case, the death of the two sergeants of the gendarmerie is certain and beyond doubt. Even if someone thinks of conspiracy theories, they don't dare to openly discuss and spread them. There are also people with sharp minds, guessing that things are not so simple, and there may be so many twists and turns behind it. This makes the whole thing confusing. And the end result of the matter has also aroused people's interest. Some underground gambling houses even opened handicaps, betting on Levy's life and death, guilt or not, and sentencing. In favor of Levy, it is the side with the higher odds.

Of course, anyone who can enter the underground casino, even if it is not a hand and eye, is either rich or expensive, mixed with fish and dragons, and is inextricably linked with the noble lord, so it is not surprising to open such a handicap.

Lei Yu came back from the side plug and could enjoy a day's rest. The next day, he officially reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs to perform the debriefing procedure. A director of the Military Armed Forces Department who was responsible for the assessment of generals listened to Lei You's report.

At the end of the debriefing, the director handed Lei Qi a letter of order listing the names of the 19 scouts who belonged to Lei Qi's department.

"Why are there so many?" asked Lei Qi in surprise.

"This is an order from above, called unconditional execution, and we can't do anything about it. "The principal looks like he is on business.

"What about the shortage? These are all veterans, and it takes a lot of money to cultivate such a group of old noses. Lei Qi was a little anxious.

Lei Yu is a little weak-hearted, and everyone has done this thing about the lack of empty salary, but he took away 19 backbone scouts at once, and he didn't do it. He didn't dare to argue, he took the order letter and looked at it over and over again, and he couldn't crush it and throw it into the garbage heap.

The principal impatiently pointed his finger at the signature column below: "Lord Lei Qi, Yao, sign here." With that, he raised his upper eyelid and glanced at Lei You.

Lei Yu was helpless, so he had to pick up the pen and prepare to sign.

At this time, the principal spoke again: "Lord Lei Qi, don't be so discouraged. You have been stationed in the border for so many years, and you have never been derelict in your duties. The lords of the Armed Forces Department also saw it. We all know that you are meticulous in your work, but some matters are just a glimpse of the water in the debriefing report. Lord Liye and the lords of the various departments still have something to ask, can you please elaborate on it at that time. If you are still satisfied, this is your last debriefing in the border town. It's not impossible to arrange a position for you in the Ministry of Military Forces. I'm getting older and my energy is running low, so it's time for a change. ”

"How do you listen to satisfaction?" Of course, I can only think about this, and I dare not say it. The words stopped here, and the other party obviously wouldn't give him too many hints. What he has to do now is just make a statement. Even what kind of words to say, whether there will be leaks, is not something that the other party needs to worry about.

Wealth touches people's hearts, not to mention the position he dreams of. Lei Qiang clearly knew that there was a second half of the sentence after "luring it with profit", "to threaten it".

What are the consequences if you don't follow. This doesn't need to be said explicitly, he is not confused, and reality does not allow him to have more choices.

He quickly signed his name on the order letter, pushed it to the principal on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Yes!"

The principal smiled, put away the order, and raised his hand to signal "please". This means that the debriefing has passed smoothly and can return to the house to wait for the recall.
