"But with Ma Zhu's kind of virtue, can you kill Taishou?" Yuan Ze asked again.

If he had been unconscious, he would have been able to do it, but Ma Zhong had already woken up, even if he was weak, he who had been fighting on the battlefield all year round was not something that Ma Zhu could cure.

"Isn't the pinch mark on Li's neck not obvious enough? It must be that when Taishou was about to die, Ma Zhu took advantage of her unpreparedness to sneak attack from behind. Tao Dai turned his back to Yuan Ze and said.

"But the sword is clearly right...... I understand that the suicide note can be faked, and the position where the sword is inserted must also be faked. Yuan Zegang wanted to ask a question, and suddenly realized.

"Since the person is Ma Zhu killed early in the morning, then the horse groom ...... Why did Li leave the scene for another two quarters of an hour?" Yuan Ze asked again.

"I don't know, anyway, there are only two possibilities, either to rearrange the room to create the illusion of suicide, or to fake a suicide note. Tao Dai spread his hands, and there could be no other reason.

Yuan Ze nodded after hearing this, stood up and walked to the window, sighed, and said: "If both civil and military affairs are as clear as reading mountains, then how can Taishou die tragically in the hands of Ma Wenying!" Alas, ......"

Tao Dai didn't say anything about this, but when Yuan Ze turned his back to him, a tear fell in his eyes.

"You've discovered their secret, and what you said in the bedroom, I don't think they're going to give up easily, so you'd better leave early. Yuan watched the bright moon outside the window for a while, walked to Tao Dai's side and said.

Tao Dai knew this very well, and a person who even dared to kill his own father would be afraid to kill such a small four-rank general as himself? Not to mention that when he was in the bedroom, he pointed out Ma Zhu's feet in front of everyone, so that it was even more impossible for him to let himself go.

"If I dare to say it, it means that I am ready to go, and I will definitely go, but I must also keep a night of vigil for the Lord. Tao Dai smiled slightly, since I dare to say it, will I still be afraid?

I really didn't expect Tao Dai to have this obsession, so Yuan gave him a salute and said: "Reading the mountain, for my brother is foolish, there is still something unknown." ”

"You and my brother, Brother Yuan Ze don't understand anything, but it's okay to ask. Tao Dai waved his hand and said.

"You have only been with the lord for two months, although I don't know how you can become a four-rank Zhonglang general in a short period of time, obviously your life is in danger, but you have to ignore your life just to keep the spirit for one night, why?" Yuan Ze asked puzzled.

People like himself who have followed him for many years, no matter how cruel and unkind Ma Zhong is, after getting along day and night for many years, he will more or less have affection and righteousness, and he can disregard his life for the sake of loyalty. But Tao Dai has only been with Ma Zhong for less than two months, what is he for?

Is it really to confess the loyalty of the Lord, but this can only be regarded as foolish loyalty under ruthlessness!

"Just to repay the grace of knowing the encounter. Tao Dai sighed and said in a depressed mood.

After hearing this, Yuan Ze hurriedly sat back, made a gesture of invitation to Tao Dai and said: "If you don't hesitate to read the mountain, the foolish brother is willing to hear the details." ”

"I was originally a person from Qingyun in Qiaozhou, when I was still young, because there was no one to take care of at home, my mother took me to the field to plant until dusk and returned, I didn't want to see the village fire, and I looked at it from the deep grass, and it was the mountain bandits who ransacked the village. Tao Dai said as he recalled his vague memories from his childhood.

Yuan Ze frowned and thought for a while and asked, "Qiaozhou Qingyun people and mountain bandits ransacked...... But the case of Baihe Village nineteen years ago?"

Tao Dai nodded, it turned out that he was also one of the twenty-two survivors that year!

Tao Dai continued: "The old mother was frightened, and took me to run away all night on the path, fearing that the old mother was frightened by the tragic scene, or because the path was difficult to find, she kept walking to Youling County, and even grinded off the skin and flesh of my feet! In order to avenge my hometown, my mother sent me away to worship a famous teacher to teach me martial arts, but because of the poverty of my family, my mother worked hard all year round, and finally died of illness three months ago. ”

Thinking of his deceased mother, Tao Dai's tears were like beads with broken threads, dripping to the ground uncontrollably.

Yuan Ze stepped forward and patted Tao Dai's back to show comfort, and after a while, Tao Dai pressed the sadness in his heart and continued: "I have no martial arts but no wealth, and the weather is hot and I am afraid that my mother's body will rot, so I sold my body on the street to bury my mother. ”

Yuan handed over a cup of tea to Tao Dai to moisten his throat, and then Tao Dai continued: "I wanted to go forward and kill Ma Zhu with a sword today, but I was afraid that I would not be able to defend the heir, so I could only endure the revenge, and I could only wait for Ma Zhu to have an heir before taking revenge." ”

Yuan Ze nodded, the reason for this is understood, Tao Dai can indeed be called affectionate and righteous, but why would he be a four-rank general when he was summoned to the account without making an inch? I want to ask clearly, but the topic is already so sad, so Yuan Ze is really not good to ask.

Since he said that he wanted Yuan Ze to understand clearly, there was no need for Tao Dai to hide it, he removed the sadness of missing his mother in his heart, smiled and explained: "It's just to check and balance Fang Jie." ”

"Oh, where to start?" This sentence made Yuan Ze puzzled, although Fang Jie was an enemy general, he was definitely a rising star!

Although Tao Dai is a member of his own camp, he can't be greedy and forget about ugliness, although after tonight's events, he can find that Tao Dai is thoughtful and a little resourceful, but this does not mean that he showed this ability two months ago!

And even if it is shown, Taishou can only make him a low-level General Wen. So to put it mildly, if he doesn't see his combat strength and has not made meritorious contributions, what qualifications does he have to check and balance Fang Jie?

From Yuan Ze's frowning brows, Tao Dai could easily guess his doubts at the moment.

Tao Dai was not angry about this, he was not the kind of narrow-minded person, so he explained with a smile: "At the beginning, I was just with the guards who were too guards, and once Taishou Jiuxing wanted to try my martial arts, so I asked me to compete with the other ten guards, but they all lost in my hands, and the Taishou was happy to let me be a personal guard, and I had to stay an inch." ”

"When did you become a general?" Yuan Ze nodded and continued to ask.

"The words also start from when Taishou went to Qiaozhou to borrow troops and came back, at that time, I followed Taishou back closely, but only six of the ten guards he sent to intercept and kill Fang Jie came back, and then Taishou asked them why, and said, 'I didn't expect him to have this martial art at a young age, no wonder Lu Hang mentioned him as a five-grade general.' He also said to me, 'Your martial arts are not bad at Fang Jie, and you are not very old, so I will let you be a higher level than him', so he mentioned that I was a general in the Sipindian Army to balance Fang Jie. Tao Dai said.

Now I want to laugh a little when I say it, in fact, the so-called checks and balances are just Ma Zhong's vindictive behavior, he just wants Qiaozhou to have young generals, then I must also have it, that's all!
