The middle door of the Fourth Army Division's mansion was wide open, and Chai Jiangtao let go of his work and went out to greet him personally.

The reason why there is such a big fanfare is because the military division Zhuge Haotang is coming, although the two have been ministers in the same hall for decades, but the personal relationship is very ordinary, just staying in the relationship between colleagues, and only sending people to send congratulatory notes and some symbolic gifts during the New Year's holidays.

The last time Zhuge Haotang visited was ten years ago, and he didn't take the initiative to come, but with the king of thieves.

Just half an hour ago, the housekeeper of the Great Army Division's Mansion personally came to the door to inform him that the Great Army Division would visit the Fourth Army Division in an hour.

In this way, Chai Jiangtao ordered people to get busy, and explained more than a dozen times that they must not be lazy and must be enthusiastic.

Chai Jiangtao could think that Zhuge Haotang had nothing to do with the Three Treasures Palace, it must have something to do with the spies, and he was waiting for him to look forward to it, and a very shabby carriage came slowly and leisurely, with the mark of the Great Army Division's Mansion on it.

Everyone did not believe that the army division would come up from this carriage, because it was so shabby, that the wheel on the right was so badly deformed that it had to be wrapped in iron sheets, but even this could not fix it into a perfect circle, and when it went, it made a creaking sound, and the carriage rose and fell with it.

The carriage stopped at the door, Zhuge Haotang came out of it, Chai Jiangtao stepped forward and clenched his fists and said: "The army is visiting, and the mansion is shining." ”

Zhuge Haotang waved his hand: "The division of the Fourth Army is polite, what does not visit, I surrender myself." ”

"Huh?" Chai Jiangtao's eyes widened, and several guards involuntarily put their hands on the hilt of the knife, in their eyes, the person who turned himself in must be a spy, and the spy is of course an enemy.

"Four of my subordinates were arrested and put in prison on suspicion of being spies, and as their superior, I have no shirk of responsibility. The old man said solemnly: "So I turned myself in and asked myself to be put in prison, so that I could ensure that the secrets would not be outsourced, at least after the leakage, no one would suspect me." ”

Chai Jiangtao smiled bitterly, it turned out that this guy was all the way to Chen Muyang, and he came to protest under the banner of surrendering, but his approach was also reasonable, his hand was arrested, how could he sit idly by and ignore it, and he couldn't make a big fuss, so he took this way to express his dissatisfaction.

"The military master laughed, everyone knows your personality, if you had an affair with a spy, our Nanshan would have ceased to exist a long time ago. Chai Jiangtao said politely: "Don't stand outside, let's go in and talk." ”

Zhuge Hao quietly followed Chai Jiangtao inside, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu was not only having an affair with spies, but also the head of dozens of high-level lurkers.

When he came to the living room, Chai Jiangtao asked people to serve fragrant tea, hugged his fists and said: "The Great Military Division is a recognized wise man in our King of Thieves City, what do you think of this incident? ”

"What can I think, the king of thieves didn't ask everyone's opinion before killing someone, is my opinion useful?" he said with strong displeasure in his tone.

Chai Jiangtao hurriedly said: "The Palace of the King of Thieves is indeed a little reckless, but I can guarantee that something like this will not happen, and the junior brother sincerely hopes that the army division can help come up with ideas, and I am grateful." ”

The old man was a little embarrassed and said: "Since you have talked about this, let me tell you my opinion, I think this is a conspiracy against the high-level of Nanshan at all, and it is a discordant plan of the Han Emperor." ”

Chai Jiangtao raised his eyebrows: "How do you say it?"

The old man explained: "Obviously, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty wants us to create chaos within us, and to kill his own troops by the hand of the king of thieves, and when our middle and high-level generals are lost, the army he sent can easily occupy Nanshan." Don't the four army divisions think it's strange, why did the spies happen when everyone gathered in the City of Thieves, why hadn't I heard of spies before?"

Chai Jiangtao fell into deep thought, from the very beginning he suspected that this was a conspiracy, the main helmsmen of the hall gathered, the king of thieves was within reach, once he suspected a certain person, he would be dealt with strictly, and there was no need to consider whether this person's subordinates would have opinions, whether there would be no mutiny, and so on.

How poisonous this plan is!

The two chatted for a long time, and finally Zhuge Haotang said that in order to show his innocence, he would take the initiative to suspend all work until the storm ended.

In the Second Army Division's Mansion, Ye Yunyang was cultivating the spirit map, and with the help of "Breaking the Cultivation Law", the mysteries on the spirit map were solved one by one.

Since worshipping Chen Muyang as his teacher, he has obtained some spiritual maps with a strong Nanshan style, including the three stages of the Enlightenment Realm, the Xuanguang Realm and the Xiuyuan Realm, the first of the Xiuyuan Realm is kept, and the other two realms are all refined.

At this time, the coverage rate of his spiritual map of the first sea of consciousness reached four-fifths, and the coverage rate of the second sea of consciousness reached two-thirds, and there were fewer and fewer blank spaces.

The most direct effect of the increase of auxiliary maps is to increase the total amount of Xuan Power and the speed of generation, which is very important for a martial artist.

For a full six hours, the white light outside his body flashed, and he rose from the Xuanguang Realm Ink Recognition Period to the Color Reading Period.

Stand up and do a few chest expansion exercises, exhale turbidity, and suddenly feel relaxed.

Dai Jingwei walked into the small courtyard, and Ye Yunyang was shocked when he saw him: "Why are you here, isn't the City of Thieves under martial law?"

He replied, "Yes, the four gates are closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave except the messenger." Because the helmsman of the hall was confined in the city, the king of thieves was afraid of losing control of the troops in the various garrisons, so he ordered the messengers to travel back and forth between the royal city and the garrison as quickly as possible, and pacified the officers and soldiers who remained behind. ”

"I see, it's great that you can still come and go freely in and out of the royal city. Ye Yunyang pulled him into the house, lowered his voice and said, "You return to the imperial capital immediately and present my handwritten letter to the crown prince or your majesty." ”

After speaking, he finished writing a letter as quickly as possible, put it in an envelope, covered it with fire paint, and handed it to Dai Jingwei.

Dai Jingwei hid the letter close to his body and asked, "The situation in the city is very unfavorable to you, so there won't be any danger, right?"

He shook his head: "It's safe for the time being, as long as the emperor cooperates well, we can save the day." Without further ado, you hurry back, and then hurry back, I have instructions for you. ”

"Understood. ”

Dai Jingwei came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

He was just about to continue cultivating when Zhuge Yingqi appeared in front of him.

"Senior sister!" he walked out with a smile and said in a cheap tone: "Senior sister is here, the younger brother has missed the distance, forgive the sins." ”

"Young poverty, I came to you for business. "The beauty is not angry.

He shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture of please, and the beautiful woman was not polite to him, and stepped into the room.

Seeing two cups of tea on the table, it was not difficult to conclude that a guest had come, Zhuge Yingqi sat quietly on the side: "Senior brother, grandpa asked me to inform you that he has done the things you explained." ”

Ye Yunyang nodded: "The efficiency of the army division is really very high, and the junior brother admires it very much." ”

In addition to instilling in him the idea of the divisive scheme, there is also an important task -- to remind Chai Jiangtao to investigate the situation of the nine beheaded people in depth, to see if they are spies, and if not, he can confirm the authenticity of the divisive scheme from the side.

Chai Jiangtao thought that his point of view was correct, and ordered his hands to carefully verify it.

The truth-phase can stand the test, but the illusion cannot stand the check, and once checked, the previous "ironclad evidence" is full of loopholes.

This is not surprising, because the "ironclad evidence" is inherently fabricated.

All kinds of truths have surfaced, and the relatives, friends, and colleagues of the slain have constantly stood up and shouted injustice, Chai Jiangtao has enough reason to believe that they have been wronged.

With the latest evidence he found, he came to the palace to meet the king of thieves.

After listening to his narration, the thief's face sank like water.

In fact, in the past few days, the king of thieves has also wondered if he has done something wrong, and he should not believe those so-called "evidence" and order people to kill without careful investigation.

"Brother Wang, those nine people are really not spies. In order not to anger the king of thieves, Chai Jiangtao tried to make his tone as calm as possible, and said: "We killed the wrong person, they were wronged." ”

The king of thieves frowned and said, "Since it has been proved that they died unjustly, what is Brother Wang going to do?"

Chai Jiangtao said without thinking: "Of course, it is to rehabilitate Zhaoxue for them and sympathize with their families, so as to prove your wisdom to others, so that they can dispel their worries and cooperate with the investigation wholeheartedly." ”

"No!" the King of Thieves slapped the table and said coldly, "If I do this, I will bear the notoriety of murder, which will not be conducive to the unity before the Great War." ”

Chai Jiangtao blushed, realizing that he had thought about the problem simply, the face of the monarch is the most important, pay attention to knowing and correcting mistakes without admitting mistakes, once you admit your mistakes, you will lose your original majesty, which will make everyone feel that since you will also make mistakes, it is no different from ordinary people, why should we be in awe of you?

"It's me who didn't think it through, don't blame Brother Wang. He said sincerely.

The king of thieves waved his hand: "This king said that you are the only person I trust, and I will not blame you." This matter must be dealt with, and since they have been killed according to the crime of traitor, let them continue to bear this infamy, at least until the end of the war, and wait until we defeat the Han army, and then pay tribute to their families. ”

Chai Jiangtao nodded: "Brother Wang is still thoughtful, just do what you want." Brother Wang, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not. ”

"You say. ”

"Remember what I told you, this is very likely to be the Han Emperor's discordant plan. He expressed the suspicion in his heart: "The death of nine loyal generals by their own knives is not a wound to us, but it has also caused great losses, if according to the previous practice, the dozens of people who were arrested and put in prison were all killed, this result is what the Emperor of the Han Dynasty wants to see the most." ”

The king of thieves stood up, pacing back and forth, his frowning brows never relaxed, and after a long time, he said: "Whether it is a discord plan or not, we will soon see it, and the inner line that this king has placed in the Han court will send detailed information." ”

Chai Jiangtao's eyes lit up: "That's great!"
