"General Lian Ji, stop!" Just as Lian Ji's long sword was about to fall, Liu Yong stopped him with a snort.

"This guy is arrogant, only acting on assumptions, if he stays behind, he will continue to be the enemy of my Shuzhong, it is better to kill him, Your Majesty will come to Nanzhong in person, and set up a new king." Lian said hesitantly.

Liu Yong groaned.

Lian Zhen's words seem to make some sense at first glance, if Meng Zhuo is beheaded and he personally appoints a new king, he may be able to exchange for temporary stability.

However, Liu Yong did not want to do this yet.

"General Lian hesitate to step aside." Liu Yong said with a calm face.

Lian hesitated helplessly and withdrew.

"King Meng Zhuo's suspicion of me is also somewhat reasonable, it must be in my Chinese army treasure account. However, please rest assured that I will find out the murderer in the shortest possible time and give the king an explanation. ”

Meng Zhuo snorted.

"Please also take King Meng Zhuo to another camp to rest first, and then come to drink with the king after I find the real murderer." Liu Yong said again.

Meng Zhuo was taken out.

"Mr. said just now that this poison is not from Shu Han, but from the Nanren realm?" Liu Yong asked the Lang Zhongdao just now.

"This, the villain doesn't dare to assert it now, but judging from the fact that King Meng Zhuo will be fine when he drinks the water of the southerners, this poison should be produced in the south." Lang Zhong explained, seeing that Liu Yong was still a little ignorant, so he further said, "Anything that is highly poisonous, there must be something within a hundred steps." Just as the south is poisonous, but the people of the south have lived well for generations, all things can be mutually reinforced, so as to maintain the reincarnation of the heavenly way. The poison in Duo Kai and Ah Tuhan was not artificially prepared, and the southerners could drink water to solve it, so the villain dared to guess that the poison came from the south. ”

Liu Yong had a sense of sudden realization.

"Sir's words are reasonable, so it seems that the poisoner should be a southerner?"

"Not necessarily." Zhao Tong said, "Just now, King Meng Zhuo has already reminded Your Majesty that you should beware of the people in the rear of my Shuzhong, first Fei Gong, and then Chen Ji, it is difficult to guarantee that this matter was done by these two people." ”

Liu Yong nodded again.

Several cooks who had been kneeling beside him, trembling with fright, remembered the mysterious lieutenant officer at this time.

"This person has never seen the villain, and he doesn't dare to ask more, but this person sat for a long time before leaving." The cook said.

From the cook's description, Liu Yong thought of a person - Li Yin.

"Your Majesty was soft-hearted for a while but caused this catastrophe, and Weichen really didn't know how to judge this matter." General surnamed Zhou also said.

Liu Yong smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Li Yin can't be caught for the time being, Your Majesty might as well use General Lian Ji's words, set up a new king, and leave some people here in case of emergency, and bring Meng Zhuo back to the capital, entrusting a virtual string, which can also be regarded as a hostage. Even if the southerners are not convinced, they will also be afraid. In the future, he will capture Li Yin's house and give Meng Zhuo an explanation, and he will be convinced. Zhao Tong proposed.

Liu Yong pondered for a long time.

"If there is another new king, it must be selected among the southerners, and it may be difficult for the people in my Shu to control this position. Although Meng Zhuo is reckless, he must have the authority of his father. I am deeply afraid that the new king will not be able to convince the people, and it will be chaos for a long time, but it will be even more difficult to clean up. ”

The crowd fell silent.

The poisoner was indeed Li Yin.

After this guy witnessed Meng Zhuo and others being captured by Liu Yong again, he expected that this time Meng Zhuo would definitely surrender sincerely, and if he went back, he would definitely be sent to the Shu army camp, so he grabbed a horse and was about to run away, but he accidentally encountered a plant called Chilianhua.

This kind of flower grows next to the poisonous spring in the south, it is said that its toxicity is more severe than the poisonous spring water, and the southerners are also afraid of it like a tiger.

Over time, this flower has almost disappeared.

What Li Yin encountered may be the last one.

It was this last strain, but it cost the lives of Duo Kai and Ah Tuhan.

After wandering outside the Shu army camp for a long time, Li Yin finally heard the news and knew that Liu Yong and Meng Zhuo were not poisoned, and that his dangerous operation was only to kill the two cave masters.

After scolding a few words in his heart, this guy got on his horse and headed in the direction of Jianning City.

After coming to the city, Li Yin knew that Chen Ji had already left here for a long time.

"This guy is running fast."

So, Li Yin also left Jianning City, planning to return to Chengdu first.

At this time, there was also a turmoil in the Shu Han Palace.

After many days of squatting, Dong Qi was finally caught by him and caught Fei Gong, who was about to escape with his family, into his military camp.

Fei Gong is timid by nature, as soon as he saw this posture, he thought that Liu Yong had ordered him to arrest him, and before Dong Qi could say anything, his legs were already weak with fright, and Zhang Shao was constantly waving his long sword on the side, looking fierce and vicious, this guy didn't wait for the two to ask, and he had already told him how he sent Fei Fu to contact Meng Zhuo, and how he conspired with Chen Ji to incite the ministers.

Zhang Shao and Dong Qi were shocked.

"I didn't expect this matter to involve so many people?" Zhang Shao was a little skeptical.

"This matter is very important, and it needs to be reported to His Majesty immediately." Dong Qi said.

"Your Majesty is far away in Jianning, if you send someone to deliver books, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth, won't you miss a big event?" Zhang Shao said.

"According to General Zhang's wishes, how should we behave?"

"Wait for me to go to the palace to discuss with my sister-in-law, and then take Fei Gong to the Queen Mother to arrest Chen Ji, and arrest people one by one with the list that Fei Gong and Chen Ji said, so as to completely cut off Your Majesty's worries."

Dong Qi thought about it.

"It's okay, but without the permission of the queen's mother, General Zhang must not act recklessly to prevent internal changes."

"Yes." Zhang Shao said.

Not long after, Zhang Shao had already appeared in Empress Zhang's Jing'an Palace.

What Fei Gong said was the names of several ministers, which really surprised Empress Zhang.

"These many ministers of the imperial court, many of whom were ministers of the ancestors at the time, once all of them are arrested, I am afraid that it will cause turmoil in our court. Moreover, although Fei Gong provided Chen Ji with this list, it can only show that these people have wavered when Cao Wei's army attacked, and it does not mean that everyone has a rebellious heart. Empress Zhang pondered for a long time before she said.

Zhang Shao thought for a moment.

"Or is my sister thoughtful, in your opinion, what should I do?"

The person sent by the little sister came back and said that Chen Ji has been under house arrest in the palace by the Queen Mother in the past few days, and I am afraid that the Queen Mother already knows what Chen Ji has done. His Majesty wants you and my brother and sister to wait for the opportunity to kill Chen Ji. According to the little sister's intentions, I still want the little sister to go to test the queen mother in person, the queen mother must be His Majesty's biological mother, and it is probably inappropriate to rush to arrest someone. Empress Zhang said.

Zhang Shao stomped his foot.

"How can such a great event be delayed? Little sister don't move, or wait for the foolish brother to take someone to Cining Palace to arrest people, and ask him to confess the name of the conspirator, with Fei Gong as a witness, I don't believe that the Queen Mother dares to continue to shield Chen Ji's wife. Zhang Shao said, turned his head and left.

"Brother must not be rude." Empress Zhang hurriedly shouted.

Where is Zhang Shao willing to listen.

Xi Yue wanted to stop Zhang Shao, but he pushed him away.

"Sister Xiyue, quickly help the palace change clothes, the palace must rush to see the queen mother before the brother arrives, so as not to cause misunderstanding." Empress Zhang commanded.
