Qi State, Hanshui County......

There was no place on his body that Duan Jinci was wrapped in bandages, lying in the military tent.

This military tent is the central military tent of the Southern Qi Army, and it is the place where Dong Haoyu, the commander of the Southern Qi Army, lives.

And Dong Haoyu himself was looking at the two kneeling in front of him with a cold expression.

One of them was the lord of Ningchi Prefecture, and the other was the county guard of Hanshui County.

The two of them were trembling in the face of Dong Haoyu, the general.

Among the younger generation of Qi State, although Dong Haoyu is not the one with the most prominent background, he is recognized as the most powerful.

Although he faced Chu Yujia of Ye State twice, both of them failed, but everyone knew that his first defeat was because Chu Yujia soldiers made a strange plan to bypass the defense line of the Qi army and enter Ningxing City of Qi State.

The second defeat was entirely due to the rapid rout of the army of Former Shu, which led to the failure of Donghao Yu's plan to besiege Liantianying, and was thus besieged in the valley by Chu Yujia's army.

Although he was defeated, his strength is undoubted, and no one will look down on him because of this.

And the two people in front of them are even more daring.

"The king asked the two of you to manage the water county, and that's how you manage it?"

Dong Haoyu slapped the table and shouted: "Indiscriminately killing innocents, without understanding the truth of the matter, escorting people to the execution ground and beheading them is your way of being an official?"

The two of them had no temper at all when they were reprimanded, kneeling on the ground trembling and trembling, and they didn't dare to say a word.

Dong Haoyu took a deep breath and said, "Today's matter, I will report to the king as it is, you two, just wait to be dismissed." ”

"General, you can't do that. ”

Han Dechang, the county guard of Hanshui County, looked at Dong Haoyu with a shocked face, and said, "General, although this matter is our negligence, it is not a crime, right?"

"Isn't that the sin?"

"Then what do you think it takes to be removed from office?"

"As parents and officials, you do not think about the welfare of the people, but abuse your power to kill innocent people. ”

Dong Haoyu snorted coldly and said, "Do you plan to let that God know that the people who are officials in this world are all people who abuse their private power and bend the law without a bottom line?"

"General, I know the wrong general. ”

"You're going to give us another chance, General. ”

Han Dechang faced Dong Haoyu and kowtowed repeatedly.

Although Dong Haoyu has lost twice, it does not prevent him from being a favorite minister of King Qi.

He knew that as long as Dong Haoyu handed over a letter, his official career would be over, and even his family would be implicated by him.

"Okay, you don't need to say more. ”

Dong Haoyu waved his hand directly and said, "Sun Zhong!"

"The last general!"

Sun Zhong walked in front of Dong Haoyu.

Dong Haoyu raised his head and ordered: "Put these two people in a prisoner car and send them to the capital, reveal the truth of the matter, and let the king decide for himself." ”

"The last will obey. ”

When the words fell, Sun Zhong walked towards the two of them, and dragged the two out of the Chinese military tent with one hand as if he was carrying a chicken.

"General, spare me, wait, General......"

The wails of the two could be heard from afar until they were dragged out.

In the end, it was also because Sun Zhong gave a kick to the leg, which made the two quiet.

At this time, Dong Haoyu turned his head and looked at Tao Beisheng, who was taking care of Duan Jinci on the edge of the bed, and couldn't help sighing.

In the final analysis, Tao Beisheng is still a person who values love and righteousness, what is the identity of this brocade, how can he, who is a brother, not know.

He sighed also for Tao Beisheng.

The illegitimate son and the eldest son have always been enemies of life and death, but Tao Beisheng would rather spend his connections to save him.

I really don't know if Tao Beisheng is really stupid, or what.

Duan Jinci looked at Tao Beisheng, his eyes did not have a trace of waves.

Tao Beisheng looked at Duan Jinci, and he also had this expression.

This state of the two gives people a very strange feeling, as if the two have known each other for a long time, and they know what the other party is thinking without talking.

It seems that the two don't know each other at all, and there is a sense of strangeness in their eyes.

Perhaps, this is how a half-brother should behave......

Glancing at Duan Jinci, Tao Beisheng stood up and said, "He'll leave it to you, I still have something to go first." ”

Hearing this, Dong Haoyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Where are you going?"

Tao Beisheng replied: "I want to find someone." ”

Dong Haoyu asked, "Who is it?"

Tao Beisheng was expressionless and said: "The old people of the rivers and lakes ......"

After speaking, Tao Beisheng walked out of the Chinese military tent, and did not give Dong Haoyu a chance to speak again.

Dong Haoyu shook his head helplessly.

This thing is still like this, I really don't know when he will be able to change it.

At this time, Duan Jinci, who had been lying on the bed and had not spoken, spoke: "What about those people?"

"Who?"

Dong Haoyu looked at Duan Jinci inexplicably.

Duan Jinci strained his arms slightly, sat up, and said, "What about the few people who blackmailed me, put me in prison, and almost killed me here?"

"They......"

Dong Haoyu wrote lightly: "Since the county guard has said today that someone is going to be beheaded, that is, someone is going to be beheaded, although they have done something wrong, they must not lose their trust in front of the people." ”

"So ......"

Dong Haoyu looked at Duan Jinci and said, "If you don't die, naturally someone will die for you." ”

What he said was already very clear, that ruffian had already resigned and died in place of Duan Jin.

Duan Jinci chuckled and only said two words: "It's so good......"

Seeing his appearance, Dong Haoyu was also quite speechless.

It's not a loss that they are half-brothers, the two are really too similar, and even this dead man looks exactly the same.

"You just stay here honestly these days to recuperate, at least no one will embarrass you here. ”

Dong Haoyu pondered for a moment and said, "When you recover from your injuries, you can go wherever you want, and I won't stop you." ”

"But I don't want to go. ”

Duan Jinci looked up at Dong Haoyu and said, "I want to stay here, stay in the army......"

"You want to join the army?"

Dong Haoyu looked at Duan Jinci with an inexplicable face.

Looking at Duan Jinci's serious appearance, Dong Haoyu took a deep breath and said, "I don't have a shortage of people here for the time being, and you don't have any future here with me." ”

If someone else defected, Dong Haoyu might have agreed.

But the relationship between Duan Jinci and Tao Beisheng is really very embarrassing.

And Dong Haoyu also knows that the reason why Tao Beisheng saved Duan Jinci is not because of how good the relationship between the two of them is, but because of the so-called morality in Tao Beisheng's heart.

Tao Beisheng can not mind these things.

But as a brother, Dong Haoyu can't help but mind.

There was no way he could keep this man in his army.

However, Duan Jinci is a talent, and Dong Haoyu can also feel it, so after saying that he is not short of people here, he added: "But I can open a letter of introduction for you and introduce you to other armies, such as the Northern Qi Army......"

The Northern Qi Army, guarding the northern part of Qi State, is now the commander of Yan Qi, the eldest son of Qi State.

If you do things by the side of the eldest son, as long as you are slightly valued by the eldest son, you will inevitably be promoted when the eldest son succeeds to the throne in the future.

In this regard, Duan Jinci also knew it, and arched his hand and said: "Then thank you General Dong......"
