Since the last dispute, he has always disliked the Zhou Ping'an brothers. Now seeing these two people eager to run away for fear of encountering danger, Wu Bishan was dissatisfied and looked down upon.
Zhou Ping'an raised his eyelids and said to Wu Bishan with a smile: "General Wu seems to be dissatisfied?"
Wu Banshan said with a cold face: "Right now, everyone is trying to do something to help the war effort. The two of you have been either idle all day long or thinking about retreating as soon as possible. Can't I, the general, be dissatisfied?"
Zhou Ping'an shook his head and said: "That's wrong. Why are we two brothers just idle? We have also made great efforts."
"It's just that everyone has different responsibilities and different divisions of labor. For example, the general's duty is to lead the soldiers in combat. Does it mean that the general must also carry stones to be considered a contribution?"
Wu Bishan said angrily: "You are using strong words to make excuses!"
"This is not an argument, it is a fact."
Zhou Ping'an said calmly: "Civil officials and military generals each perform their own duties. The officer is responsible for paying attention and relying on his head to make a living, while the general is the executor and relies on war. Otherwise, if I can lead troops to fight, the general will have to do this.
What are you waiting for the warrior to do?"
Wu Banshan was furious and was about to explode, but because Li Chen was still there, he had to suppress his anger and said: "I am too lazy to argue with you, general!"
Li Chen spoke at the right time and said: "You should retreat first. I will ask Xu Wei to arrange people to protect you all the way there."
Zhou Ping'an replied: "His Royal Highness's safety is more important."
Li Chen shook his head and said: "If this palace is really in danger, the few people there are meaningless. On the contrary, Prince Ning is still watching you and has to guard against it."
Zhou Pingan no longer insisted.
"Xu Wei."
Li Chen summoned Xu Wei and ordered Xu Wei to lead the monks to protect Zhou Pingan and Zhou Changshou and retreat to the rear.
Before Zhou Changshou left, he suddenly said: "Your Highness, I have something to say. I hope I can elaborate on it with Your Highness."
Li Chen raised his eyebrows and waved his hands. Xu Wei, Zhou Ping'an and Wu Bishan all left consciously.
"explain."
When no one was around, Li Chen said to Zhou Changshou.
Zhou Changshou said softly: "Among the sixteen riders of Yanyun, there is a secret agent named Wu Yong. He is now in charge of Tiefu Tu instead of Ye Wang."
Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Zhou Changshou whispered again: "The news came earlier that Li Songru had left the Yanyun Sixteenth Cavalry Camp. I thought that he would never have a chance to come back."
"Dead?" Li Chen asked.
Shaking his head, Zhou Changshou said: "Only Prince Ning himself knows this."
With a chuckle, Li Chen said to Zhou Changshou: "The power of longevity is worth a hundred thousand troops."
Zhou Changshou smiled bitterly and said: "It's just pushing the boat along. Prince Ning's suspicion is the main thing."
"In his position, he has to be careful. Sometimes, there is nothing he can do about killing someone by mistake."
Li Chen said indifferently: "But from this, it is clear that Prince Ning is extremely cruel and ruthless."
Zhou Changshou did not take up the topic. He asked: "Wu Yong, what should I do..."
"Don't move yet."
Li Chen said: "Even Li Songru can be kicked out. Wu Yong, who has just taken over, will definitely be stared at by King Ning at this time. It's not time to use him yet. Once he is used, he must do this line well."
