plateau.

On the third day after attending the Qiang King's banquet, when the sun was setting over the Western Mountains, a Qiang man bravely walked into the enclave.

"It's you again, so active in giving away people's heads?" Xu Shu looked at the other party coldly.

Xu Shu's character in front of the Plateau Qiang was that of a vicious counselor and a ruthless man who killed without blinking an eye. The lord went to a banquet and poisoned him to death. According to Xu Shu's character and position, he should show extreme anger and annoyance, but in order to take the overall situation into consideration,

Before the dawn of peace completely disappears, he must exercise restraint and forbearance, and should not act too much, so it is inevitable that he will be entangled in conflicts. How to find a balance between true intention and restraint is not an easy task. Xu Shu's strategy is to humiliate first

and intimidation.

"You are joking, sir." Youyu said with a smile.

This visit to the enclave is different from the past. Yu Wuzhi went to the banquet and was poisoned, and it is entirely possible to take revenge on the envoy.

Xu Shu's handsome face showed a look of disgust and he said: "Correction of two problems."

"First of all, I'm just a little person. Is it the one who goes to the Qiang King's banquet to lead the real master, or the one who invites you personally and takes him to the camp in person? What's the result? You didn't let the master come back safely. You

Damn it! Secondly, I don’t like to joke. If I don’t satisfy you today, I won’t mind lending you your head.”

Youyu broke into a cold sweat and secretly cried out in her heart.

Who is Xu Shu?

A vicious strategist who regards human life as nothing and kills prisoners without blinking an eye. Everyone knows the captured warriors of Baima Qiang. Youyu was also a prisoner at the time. To be honest, every time he was ordered to deal with Xu Shu, he was so frightened that he couldn't even breathe normally.

Unrestrained and unrestrained, it is obvious that he has left a psychological shadow. With so many contacts, Youyu has some understanding of Zhulu Leader. Xu Shu seems to have a high status in Zhulu Leader and has great power. Where does his power and status come from? Naturally, Yu Bu

Zhi, Yu Buzhi's favor towards Xu Shu is very obvious.

The inference proves that Xu Shu is very loyal to Yu Buzhi. It is strange that Xu Shu is not angry when Yu Buzhi goes to a banquet and something happens. There is absolutely no obstacle to him turning against someone and killing someone. Maybe the knife has already been sharpened!

"Sir..." Youyu wanted to cry, she really shouldn't have taken this job.

Xu Shu interrupted: "Stop talking nonsense and talk about business."

The wind direction is not right!

Youyu decisively gave up the apology to Zhulu and skipped the explanation of the investigation results to avoid getting angry. He took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is a letter from King Qiang to Governor Wuzhi."

"He still has the nerve to write to my lord?" Xu Shu slapped him in the face unceremoniously.

These words are very serious. With Xu Shu's status, he really shouldn't humiliate the Qiang King in front of the Qiang King's envoy, but Xu Shu just did it. Youyu was terribly embarrassed. Logically speaking, even if he didn't fall out with Xu Shu in person, he should express his gratitude to Xu Shu.

Condemned or dissatisfied, how can Youyu dare to stroke the tiger's beard? The relationship between the tribe and the Qiang king is very loose, which is different from the strict hierarchy of superiors and subordinates in the Han family, and they lack the consciousness to humiliate their ministers to death. Youyu pretends to be the leader of the Baima Qiang tribe, and wants him to be the leader of the Baima Qiang tribe.

Yuyu was not willing to risk his own life for a nominally communist leader.

Wasn't it just that he was scolded?

No one else heard it anyway...

"This letter..." Youyu pretended not to hear, holding the letter with a smile on her face, her attitude was extremely humble.

Xu Shu glanced at him and hummed: "My Lord is not here."

Youyu smiled bitterly and promised to reply within three days. He pinched some to get it. How could Yu Buzhi not be there? Even if he was not there, it is said that players can fly. How long did it take to fly here? But Youyu didn't dare to mention these words.

Zhulu Ling made it clear that he wanted to use the topic to show off the bad breath that the lord had when he went to the banquet and was poisoned. Before Xu Shu had done enough, Yu Buzhi would probably not show up anyway. In this case, it was completely meaningless for him to talk about it.

In the final analysis, the superficial situation shows that the other party is the victim, and the Qiang people are the unreasonable side...

Youyu made a quick decision and said: "Sir, it seems the same."

Only then did Xu Shu take it, and he was not polite, and directly tore off the paint. When he opened it, he saw that it was written with Chinese characters and the paper was also made of fine Zuo Bo paper. I don’t know where King Qiang got these things. The details were very detailed.

In place.

The letter filled the whole page with eloquence: first, a sincere apology for the poisoning incident; then, the investigation results and the Qiang side's suggestions for handling; and finally, suggestions on how to solve the problem of the plateau enclave.

After Xu Shu finished reading, his face was so gloomy that he almost shed tears. He raised his head and asked, "Have you offended King Qiang?"

Youyu shook his head blankly and said, "No."

"If you didn't offend him, why would he send you to die?"

"Sir, what does this mean?"

"See for yourself!" Xu Shu threw the letter at Youyu and said angrily: "The poisoner has not been found?"

Youyu knew the content of the letter, so there was no need to read it. He had known that Xu Shu would be angry after reading the letter, so he quickly explained: "Sir, please calm down! It's not that I couldn't wait, I really didn't find it!"

"We listed everyone present that day as suspects, including Mr. Qiang King, and investigated seriously, but most of them had no chance to get close to Prefect Wu Zhi. How to poison him? The patriarch who gave Mr. Wu Zhi wine

, seems to be the most suspected of poisoning, but he did not hesitate to swear to the goat god to prove his innocence!"

"The leader of the Jianwang clan who had a quarrel with the unwise prefect that day had no chance of poisoning him. However, he had a close relationship with the clan leader who sent him the wine. There happened to be warriors from his clan participating in the competition in the tent. Therefore, the suspicion of the leader of the Jianwang clan was second, and he was also arrested.

Forced to swear to the goat god..."

Youyu only told part of the situation. In fact, the Qiang camp's investigation intensity was unprecedented. It was not because they were afraid of chasing the deer, but because this matter was related to the credibility of the Qiang people. If they invited a guest to drink, they poisoned the guest, what's going on? Who will do it in the future?

Do you still believe in the Qiang people? The influence is extremely bad! At least that’s what the Qiang king said. He made the Yu Bu Zhi poisoning incident at the banquet a shocking scandal and insisted on the Qiang people to give an explanation to the outside world.

Under such an environment, everyone in the Qiang camp is in danger, and no one dares to take the blame.

It was okay at the beginning, everyone just discussed the matter.

But something happened next: a clan leader publicly accused a certain clan leader of poisoning based on subjective assumptions, and the two were sworn enemies. Although the accusation was not accepted by everyone, it successfully opened Pandora's box. There is hatred and resentment.

They all took the opportunity to resolve their old grudges, and various rumors took off, adding insult to injury, and even concocted several versions of shocking conspiracies. Those rumors and conspiracy theories were poorly crafted and could not be concealed from the discerning people, and were refuted one by one by the Qiang King. But after this

As a result, the high-level irritability of the Qiang people in the Plateau skyrocketed, and they distrusted each other. The unity they had built up through the crusade against the Han people in the enclave was gone.

In the past three days, the Qiang king's tent had been quarreling day and night, and the knife was about to be used.

Even Youyu was not immune. He had the most contact with Zhulu Leader, and he was the one who brought the fish to the banquet. So some people patted their chests and said that the poisoner must be Youyu, and it might be some kind of chronic poison...

This is also the reason why Youyu came to deliver the letter today.

You were the one who went there before, so why don’t you go this time? I dare you to say it’s not a guilty conscience?

On the way here, Youyu had planned to make a fool of himself in front of the deer hunters, but seeing Xu Shu's eagerness to eat people, he thought it was better to forget it. Maybe Xu Shu would suspect him of poisoning after hearing this, and he would have committed suicide.

Orally.

"What a goat god swears by... just want to expose this matter with a few empty words?" Xu Shu said with a smile.

Youyu said seriously: "The oath made to the Goat God is not empty talk!"

"Do you believe it?"

"letter!"

Xu Shu was extremely angry and laughed, and said quietly: "Is this your explanation?"

Youyu picked up the letter and said: "What King Qiang means is that although the murderer has not been found, the Qiang people will not evade responsibility for the unwise prefect's poisoning at the banquet and are willing to make compensation..."

Xu Shu interrupted impatiently and mocked: "My master's life is worth three thousand sheep?"

"Of course not, I'm just apologizing a little." Youyu smiled bitterly and said: "We have indeed thoroughly investigated what happened that day. The sheep god is the witness, which is the most serious, solemn and most inviolable oath on the plateau. Several major suspects have sworn it.

According to the tradition of the plateau, they have proven their innocence, otherwise the goat god will punish them."

Xu Shu was unmoved: "Did everyone in the account swear an oath that day?"

Youyu was stunned. It is not child's play to swear by the goat god. Those who are suspected of using this to prove their innocence are forced by the situation. Why would they do that if they are not suspected? Wouldn't the goat god be bothered by asking the goat god to testify for everything? But

He still didn't dare to say this to Xu Shu. Zhulu Ling had the right to question it like this. He had no choice but to answer truthfully and said helplessly: "No."

Xu Shu rolled his sleeves and turned sideways, saying angrily: "In that case, what else is there to say?"

When things got to this point, Youyu could no longer just tolerate them.

"Sir, I feel the same way. However, King Qiang has indeed tried his best to find out the truth and can't find the murderer. You can't just point the finger at one person to shoulder the crime, right? It's easy to find a scapegoat, and some clan leaders do suggest that, but that is irresponsible.

It is also disrespectful to Mr. Wu Zhi. King Qiang is unwilling to do it. Do you think so, sir?"

Xu Shu's eyes turned cold and he said, "Can I find a scapegoat... and fool me?"

Xu Shu's words were full of gunpowder, but his attitude was a little more relaxed. Looking for a scapegoat was the simplest explanation. King Qiang did not do that, but showed his importance and sincerity to the matter. This is a very simple fact.

Youyu's morale was greatly boosted and he continued: "Let's talk about the poisoning of the prefect, I was also present that day."

"As a distinguished guest, your Excellency sits in the highest position, second only to King Qiang, and is located deep in the king's tent. The warriors who entered the tent to fight with the noble black-clothed warriors were all in the direction of the entrance of the tent, separated from you.

It's far away, and those dozen warriors have no chance of getting within ten steps of the Lord, so their suspicions are eliminated as quickly as possible."

"Coming down next are the Qiang King and the Qiang King's guards. As the master, the Qiang King had a very pleasant conversation with Bu Zhi Prefect, and Bu Zhi Prefect is a warrior from another world... No matter what the reason is, the Qiang King has no reason to secretly poison.

The Qiang King Guards are formed by warriors selected from various tribes, and the elimination rate is extremely high. Those who are lucky enough to be officially selected into the Qiang King Guards must swear to the Goat God on the day they join, to only be loyal to the Qiang King, not to belong to any tribe, and to no longer be involved in worldly affairs.

The king changed and the guards were handed over. In fact, the guards of the Qiang King are equivalent to the messengers of the Goat God. Let me put it this way. On the plateau, some people may question the Qiang King, but no one will question the Qiang King’s guards..."

"In addition, there are the heads of various tribes, including the following."

"Our investigation is mainly focused on this group."

"For the death of a foreigner, it is unprecedented to investigate dozens of clan chiefs as suspects, and it can easily cause a strong backlash from the clan members, but the Qiang King did it anyway and forced the most suspected clan chief to swear an oath to the goat god.

Even the King of Qiang cannot make a clan leader who dares to swear to the sheep god confess his crime. From the perspective of the Qiang people, the King of Qiang has done everything he can to be benevolent and righteous..."

"Furthermore, does the poisoning have to be in the camp? Is it possible that there was something wrong on the road?"
