Zhaoliefu Yamen, back hall.

King Mu was sitting behind the table, looking at the secret fold presented by his subordinates.

As he looked at it, his already dark face showed strong anger, and his eyes almost felt like they were on fire!

No wonder!

No wonder he lost to Qin Yi twice!

Damn it, it turned out to be some careful work!

Although King Mu was furious, he was not stupid. He did not act immediately. Instead, he suppressed his anger and pondered.

This rumor came from outside the city, which means that it may be a counter-intentional plan by the enemy soldiers.

But it might be true!

And for him, no matter whether it is true or false, if he is suspected, he must be arrested and imprisoned and interrogated!

So, he began to think about it, among the generals in the city, who was the most suspicious?

In an instant, he thought of it.

Forbidden General!

When he left Zhanjing and came to Zhaolie Mansion, he brought some generals of the Forbidden Army with him. Many of these generals were promoted to generals by him because of their good abilities.

Maybe, it's them!

Because Qin Yi once served in the Forbidden Army and already knew all the generals of the Forbidden Army.

However, there is no possibility of cooperation between Chixinmen general and Qin Yi.

Because the ways of the two parties are not consistent.

Thinking of this, King Mu made a decision and was about to give the order when he suddenly heard his subordinate reporting, "Your Majesty, Mr. Yan wants to see you."

King Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and understood that the other party must be trying to admonish him.

He has already made up his mind, so why should others advise him? But Mr. Yan is different.

The other party was the deputy sect leader of the Scarlet Heart Sect, who was loyal to him. When he was unable to lead the Scarlet Heart Sect himself, it was Mr. Yan who carried out his orders one by one.

With this in mind, King Mu said, "Let him come in."

Not long after, an old man staggered into the room.

His eyes seemed cloudy, but occasionally there was a flash of light, which showed that this man had an outstanding mind and was not as decrepit as he looked.

King Mu looked over and asked, "Do you have something important to do when you come here?"

Mr. Yan put in a lot of energy for the sake of the Red Heart Sect and for King Mu's important affairs. Now that he is old and has difficulty moving, King Mu asked him to hold the title of elder at the headquarters of the Red Heart Sect so that he can take care of himself until his old age.

Since the big plan was completed, Mr. Yan has retired and stopped taking charge of the affairs. But he didn't expect that he would come here now.

"I'm here to pay my respects to Your Majesty," Mr. Yan bowed his hands in a rather old voice, "I'm here because I want to talk to Your Majesty and not to fall into the enemy's counter-intentional schemes."

When King Mu heard this, he narrowed his eyes immediately. It was exactly as he guessed.

Although the other party is loyal and has made great contributions, King Mu has always made a decision and will never change it. Even Mr. Yan cannot convince him.

Therefore, he said slowly, "I have my own sense of discretion. You are not young, so don't worry about these things anymore."

After hearing this, Mr. Yan immediately understood that King Mu did not listen to the advice.

He also knew that although King Mu was cruel, he was not stupid, but rather resourceful.

The other party must understand that this plan is probably a counterintuitive one, but they are still preparing to clean up the inside. It seems that this matter cannot be reduced to a major issue, and it will be reduced to a trivial matter...

With a sigh, Mr. Yan nodded and said, "I hope your majesty will not chill the hearts of everyone at Chixinmen."

The Chixin Sect has been working hard for several years for King Mu's big plan, and they are all reliable people.

King Mu nodded, and he naturally understood that there was no way that General Chixin Sect would collude with Qin Yi.

Seeing that King Mu agreed, Mr. Yan staggered away.

Then, King Mu said firmly, "Come here, gather all the generals here and say that I have something important to discuss with you!"

"In addition, I have ordered General Gu to lead three hundred swordsmen and axemen to hide behind the hall. When I throw the cup as a signal, they will rush out and capture the people in the hall!"

"Pass on my secret decree to Lu He to capture all the generals of the Forbidden Army and interrogate them properly!"

Following King Mu's arrangements, the city of Zhaolie Mansion suddenly became turbulent!

His news has not yet reached the wall city, but there is already an undercurrent in this city.

In the study room of a luxurious mansion in the walled city, three generals gathered here, frowning and discussing.

"Two generals, my subordinates, have just informed me that there is a rumor spreading outside the city, saying that there are enemy spies in the walled city. This is something very bad!" the thin general said in a deep voice.

Another stout general asked doubtfully, "Maybe it's a counter-intentional plan by the enemy soldiers. What's there to be afraid of?"

The thin general said quickly, "Don't you know that His Majesty likes to be suspicious?"

The long-bearded general who had been silent until now nodded slowly.

This means that King Mu will definitely not ignore this rumor.

The stout general was still puzzled, "Even if Your Majesty likes to be suspicious, what does that have to do with us?"

The thin general smiled bitterly and said, "We are from the Forbidden Army and are not generals from the Chixin Sect. We are not welcome and are gradually being squeezed out. Doesn't this mean that His Majesty does not trust us?"

Normally I don't trust them, but after I learn about the rumors, I will immediately doubt them.

The stout general suddenly frowned, "What should we do?"

The thin general thought for a long time and then said in a deep voice, "My advice is, if you are desperate, it is better to..."

Although the thin general did not finish speaking, the long-bearded general knew what he was going to say and nodded heavily, "If Lu He wants to take this opportunity to deal with us, then we might as well abandon the dark side and surrender to the city!"

Qin Yi was a man of benevolence and righteousness. He and others surrendered the city. Even if they could not be reused, at least their lives would not be in danger.

Unlike King Mu and Lu He, who were so cruel that when doing things for them, their heads were always tied to their belts!

The stout general frowned, "Do we really have to go to this point? We are not trusted. We are not responsible for defending the city. It is extremely difficult to open the city gate!"

The thin general nodded in agreement, "Indeed, there are many soldiers and horses in the city, and our strength is too small. Unless we are desperate, we must not act rashly!"

The long-bearded general pondered for a while and said, "How about this? I'm going to test Lu He and see how he reacts. If I am captured, you will immediately start an attack and attack the city gate!"

The thin general was slightly startled, "Then what should you do?"

The long-bearded general said in a deep voice, "If I am captured and you attack the city gate, Lu He will have no time to take care of me. By then, I can take the opportunity to escape!"

"Even if you can't escape, if you capture the city gate and Qin Yi breaks the city, you can still rescue me!"

Seeing what General Changxu said, the other two generals were quite moved and said quickly, "Brother Zhen, if anything happens, we will not abandon you!"

The long-bearded general nodded, stood up, and was about to leave when the thin general took out a sheathed dagger from his arms and said, "Brother Zhen, take this dagger with you and hide it in your arms for self-defense."

!”

The long-bearded general didn't say much. After taking the dagger, he strode out of the study without looking back, looking quite tragic.

After leaving the mansion, he mounted his horse and went straight to the government office.

Not long after, he arrived in front of the government office. After calling the police, he was led by soldiers to the front of the main hall.

The soldiers entered, looked at Lu He who was sitting behind the couch, frowning at the secret message, and respectfully reported, "General, General Zhen wants to see you."

When Lu He heard this, the boy's eyes suddenly shrank, then his expression returned to normal, he nodded and said, "Let him come in."

After a while, the long-bearded general walked into the hall, raised his hands and said, "I will pay my respects to the general!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Lu He's expression.

Seeing that the other party's expression was dull, there was nothing wrong with it, but he still had a smile. The long-bearded general couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Lu He didn't know about the rumors outside the city?

In an instant, he hatched a plan.

Lu He put down the secret letter, stuffed it back into the envelope, and asked, "General Zhen, what do you want to do when you are here?"

The long-bearded general raised his hands and said, "General, I heard that there is a rumor going viral outside the city. I wonder if the general has heard about it?"

Lu He looked confused, "What rumors?"

The long-bearded general stared at the opponent and said slowly, "This rumor is that there are enemy spies in Fucheng and Bicheng!"

Lu He was suddenly surprised. He pondered for a moment and then laughed, "This is a counter-intentional plan by the enemy soldiers. Don't be fooled!"

The long-bearded general was immediately surprised. Is this the sun rising in the west?

He quickly asked, "The general really thinks so?"

Lu He glanced at the long-bearded general's arms as if unintentionally, nodded and said, "Indeed, my father has given me an order, saying that there are rumors outside the city, so I should not fall into the trap. I don't know what the rumors are.

Now that I heard you talk about it, I know about it."

"This is the secret message just sent from my father." With a slight smile, Lu He pointed to the secret message on the table.

The letter was put into an envelope, and General Longbeard could not see the content. However, after hearing what Lu He said, he immediately felt relieved and praised quickly, "Your Majesty and the general are truly unparalleled in their resourcefulness. They saw through the enemy's plan in an instant!"

Lu He nodded and said, "It is estimated that many generals in the city are troubled by this trick. I plan to summon all the generals and explain it to prevent everyone from falling into the trick."

After that, he said to the soldiers on the side, "Go and gather the generals and tell us that we have something to discuss."

The long-bearded general no longer questioned and said quickly, "General, I am wearing regular clothes and not official robes, which is not in line with etiquette. I will go back now and come back again in official clothes, okay?"

Lu He once again glanced at the other party's arms as if unintentionally, nodded and said, "You can go by yourself. After changing, come back as soon as possible."

The long-bearded general nodded quickly, walked out of the mansion quickly, and galloped on his horse. After returning to the mansion, he saw the two generals waiting impatiently in the study. He said happily, "The general has no doubts.

It is said that His Majesty sent an order stating that this is a counter-intentional plan by the enemy soldiers, so we should not fall into the trap. Now, the general plans to summon everyone to explain the matter!"

Hearing this, the stout general was immediately delighted. If possible, he did not want to take the risk.

The thin general frowned, and then he felt relieved. If Lu He really wanted to take action, he would not let the long-bearded general come back. He probably had no such intention.

So, the three of them made preparations, put on their official robes, and galloped towards the palace together.

There was deep joy on their faces.
Chapter completed!
