"Young master, what is it that worries you so much? You might as well say it, and I'll see if I can solve it. ”

Tang Yuan was a little anxious, and didn't seem to want to see Li Yue have any worries.

"Qi Tong is a little uneasy about this person, but after all, he was brought out by me, and I don't believe he can betray me."

Li Yue directly expressed his worries, while Zhou An, who was standing opposite at the same time, looked very stunned.

On the contrary, Tang Yuan was indifferent and did not feel anything wrong.

"Young master, there may be some unsatisfactory things about Qi doing things with him, but his loyalty to the young master will definitely not change, I will use my own head to vouch."

Zhou An said nervously.

"You don't have to react so much, I'm just suspicious, it's just that now Jiangxia City is all his people, and how many of you are here?"

Li Yue said with some bitterness.

Hearing this, Zhou An originally wanted to defend a few more words, but when he thought of the worry that Li Yue said at this moment, it was not unreasonable, so he was silent.

He knew that there were less than a thousand people in Jiangxia City who he had brought with him, and the rest were all Qi Tong's people.

"Young Master, I know your worries, now I will send someone to assemble the defenders of all lines and drive them back to Jiangxia City."

Zhou An said with a solemn face.

"Don't worry, we brought more than 20,000 people this time, it's not muddy, even if Qi Tong has the intention of rebellion, what can he do with 10,000 people? And I'm still in charge myself, what's so terrible! ”

Li Yue had a disdainful expression on his face, and he didn't seem to care about Qi's complicity at all, he was more concerned about the betrayal of the people around him.

"Young master, the 20,000 people I led are still stationed outside the city, and no one is following, otherwise I will let them all enter the city!"

Tang Yuan's face was full of worry, and his voice was a little urgent when he spoke.

Hearing this, Li Yue stretched out his hand to stop it, looking confident.

"No, if Qi Tong really wants to betray me, I will solve it myself, after all, he is the person I personally selected, and if something happens, I have to be responsible."

Li Yue's expression was solemn, and he looked a little kingly, but he was uneasy in his heart.

The person who really faced the betrayal, I don't know whether to do it or pretend not to see it and let him go.

"Young master, I understand what you mean, but he is my brother, if he really betrays the young master, then my responsibility is greater, and I will solve him!"

Zhou An looked at Li Yue with a guilty expression, and then an angry look appeared on his face, as if he was angry at what Qi Tong had done.

Originally, Li Yue wanted to stop it, but as soon as he saw Zhou An's determined eyes, he understood that this matter had to be solved by him personally.

Otherwise, it will become an insurmountable obstacle for his life.

"Zhou An, I believe in you, it's up to you to do it, he really wants to betray me, it's up to you to decide whether to kill or stay."

Li Yue said with a wry smile.

"Understood, young master, I'll do it, but young master, can you give me a few good guards, I don't want to make a big fight, after all, it's my own brothers who die."

Zhou An said with a gloomy expression.

Hearing this, Li Yue only nodded, and then looked at Tang Yuan.

"Select a few skilled people to follow Zhou An, things are really as I said, then check if there are any accomplices, especially that Sun Zhanpeng, I don't think he is simple."

Li Yue's expression was solemn, and after explaining, he sighed and turned to leave.

Tang Yuan and Zhou An were left in the front hall, and the two glanced at each other, remained silent, and turned to leave the room.

"Tang Yuan, you have been in contact with the young master for a long time during this time, and you should also know the character of the young master, do you think Qi Tong's betrayal can be confirmed?"

Zhou An asked with a solemn expression.

"Nine times out of ten, this is because I don't know Qi Tong, if you know more like you, then I'm sure he has a problem."

Tang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Zhou An was silent, then looked up at the sky, and separated from Tang Yuan with a wry smile.

At noon the next day, in a four-story restaurant in Jiangxia City, in the largest box on the fourth floor, Li Yue sat at the guest of honor and looked at a table of more than a dozen military and political officials in Jiangxia City.

Among them, the most prominent is Qi Tong sitting opposite Li Yue, which feels as if the two are on an equal footing.

The rest of the people were vaguely close to Qi Tong, only the people brought by Zhou An sat very close to Li Yue, and two camps were formed.

It's just that it seems that both sides are very harmonious, and there is no separation.

"Young master, under the Jiangxia County Order Sun Jingyan, who was brought up by Zhou Du, was raised in the first year of Chongzhen, and then failed in several scientific examinations, if it weren't for Zhou Du, Sun would have starved to death by the river."

A man in his forties, who looked very thin, said very respectfully.

"Sun Jingyan, the name is very good, since he is a lifter, and now he has become a county magistrate, then he must work for the welfare and profit of the poor people, don't play with power for personal gain, don't deceive the superiors and subordinates, do you know?"

Li Yue said indifferently.

"I understand, the lower officials will definitely do their best to seek benefits for the people, and they will also do their best for the stability and well-being of Jiangxia City, and they will die."

Sun Jingyan's expression was firm, and he looked a little clear.

It's just that Li Yue saw this scene, but he had a slight doubt in his heart.

After all, in his eyes, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, he was made to have no money to fight by these clear streams, and finally was attacked by some anti-people who picked up hoes.

"Very good, I can rest assured with your words, but in the future, everything must be people-oriented, like Huainan Mansion and Huangzhou Mansion, only the prosperity of the people of Li can we be stable."

When Li Yue spoke, he looked at Qi Tong on the opposite side and showed a kind smile.

At this time, Qi Tong saw Li Yue's eyes, and immediately showed a very unnatural feeling, and immediately stood up and stepped forward.

"What does the young master command?"

Qi Tong's appearance is still very respectful, so that everyone doesn't have anything wrong after seeing it.

Only Zhou An and Tang Yuan, who were sitting next to them, felt that the person in front of them was really hypocritical.

After the two separated last night, they sent someone to investigate overnight, and although the information they got was not much, it was enough to prove that Qi Tong did have different intentions.

Moreover, the garrison in the city has also been mobilized and strengthened, as if it is facing a great enemy.

"What is there to tell you, you are doing a good job, I was thinking when I came here, you and Zhou An are indeed people I trust."

Li Yue looked at Qi Tong with a solemn expression, stood up at the same time, and stepped forward.

The two of them look very close, as if they are brothers, but the two of them look like this, but they are pretending.
