Then he put down the teacup, and asked in confusion: "As a general stationed at the border, you can't leave Dongyu easily, how could you come to the capital at this time? Chen Shuo didn't elaborate in the letter, what's going on?"

Liu De told Chen He about the matter in detail. After hearing this, Chen He sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect His Majesty to invite you here, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. I only hate that I am old and sick, and I can't stop it." Cao Sui's wolfish ambition has now turned him into a climate!"

Liu De comforted: "Grandpa Chen, this is your responsibility. If you want to blame it, you can blame the emperor for favoring Cao Sui. It's just that he reaped the consequences!"

"Your Majesty, you are talented and intelligent, but... oh... don't mention it, don't mention it." Chen He didn't want to think about the past, which only added to his troubles.

Liu De continued: "Now that Eunuch Song is back in the palace, there will be news delivered in the evening. Now I don't know anything about the relationship inside and outside the capital. Then Eunuch Song is also vague on the way. I hope Grandpa Chen will teach me!"

"Song Shi won't tell you such details, he is afraid that you will know too much, and you will hesitate." Chen He said.

"What? Is the situation so critical?" Liu De asked hastily.

"Don't worry, as long as His Majesty is still around, even if Cao Sui controls the Jingying, he won't dare to use force. He doesn't have the guts, but with the Jingying here, His Majesty won't be able to take down Cao Sui. Jump over the wall, until then, the great chaos that will occur will shake the foundation of the country, and ambitious people in other states will also feel disobedient.

Cao Sui's main purpose now is to make the eldest prince the crown prince. After the eldest prince succeeds, King Luan, Li Zhen, Huangfu Yi, and He Sui are just meat on the chopping board, and they will be slaughtered. Besides, Concubine Cao is not So easy to get along with.Don't worry, you can do what you should do well, and I, an old man, will help you with the rest! "

"So, thank you, Grandpa Chen!" Liu De said.

"I only regret that I didn't meet Big Brother Shang back then, but now that I see you so promising, forget about my wish!"

Chen He hated himself for being weak and did not see Liu Shang for the last time when he left. This was also one of the reasons why Chen He did not hesitate to help Liu De when Chen Shuo sent the letter, in order to make up for the guilt in his heart!

Liu De returned to the inn in the evening. Not long after Liu De arrived at the inn, Eunuch Song's confidant Xiao Xizi came to the inn in casual clothes. Liu De opened it and informed Liu De of the plan for three days later in detail. And let Liu De and his subordinates dress up as eunuchs, enter the palace under the leadership of Xiao Xizi, and set up an ambush. His Majesty will summon the important officials of the court to discuss the establishment of the crown prince in three days. Go forward and capture and kill Cao Sui, and the event will be accomplished.

Xiao Xizi said: "As long as Lord Hou can kill Cao Sui, His Majesty will not hesitate to reward you, and other follow-up matters will be dealt with by His Highness Prince Luan. I hope Lord Hou can rest assured."

Liu De read the letter, looked at the generals behind him, and said to Xiao Xizi: "Eunuch Xi, should we all dress up as eunuchs? My figure doesn't matter, these people's figures are too scary, I'm afraid it's easy to attract unnecessary attention!"

What Liu De was referring to was Guan Yu, Dian Wei, Xu Hu, Zhou Cang, and Peng Yue, who were looking at Guan Yu's two-foot long beard. If he wanted to pretend to be a eunuch, he had to shave off his beard.

Liu De thought for a while, and said, what would Guan Yu look like if he shaved his beard...

Of course Guan Yu, who was behind, could hear the conversation between Liu De and Xiao Xizi, but he squinted his eyes and clenched his fists, trying not to beat Xiao Xizi hard enough to let him shave, it would be better to kill him!

Xiao Xizi smiled and said: "Please rest assured, Lord Hou, King Luan has already made arrangements. There are 1000 people in the ten thousand imperial guards who are His Majesty's personal guards. Just enter the palace with the ghost face."

Liu De nodded and said: "Then there's nothing wrong with it!" Guan Yu who was behind also heaved a sigh of relief, his precious beard was saved.

At this time, the spies who were guarding outside Chen He's door had passed the information that Liu De and the others went to Chen He's house to Lin Ku's case. Cao Sui trusted him as a son-in-law very much, and handed over the intelligence agency in his hands to Lin Ku. Ku management.

Lin Ku opened the information, thought for a moment and asked, "Have you sent someone to follow?"

"My lord, we have lost..." the spy lowered his head, fearing that Lin Ku would punish him.

Lin Ku said dissatisfied: "You are the most elite spies under my command, they were able to throw you away, are they too powerful, or are you too useless!"

"Humble position is a crime, please forgive me, my lord!"

The spy quickly knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

Lin Ku suppressed his anger. After all, it is at a critical moment and manpower is very much needed. It is impossible for him to really punish them. Lin Ku said: "I will give you two days to find out about these people! I will never allow At this critical moment, make any mistake!"

"Yes! I must do my best!" the spies replied.

And Li Zhen also knew that someone had visited Chen He, and he had given the same order like Lin Ku. Staying in the court, no one would be so stupid as to let such an obvious thing go. After all, there has been no stranger visiting Chen He's house for a long time. The spies know the people who can visit Chen He in the capital. Liu De didn't expect it.

He thought that entering Situ's mansion openly would not attract attention, but he didn't expect that this would attract the most attention. Chen He didn't think much about it, and forgot to tell Liu De. The sentry in the back, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

The only people who can visit Chen He are those officials who are neutral, have not joined the party struggle, and still have some things for the country and the people in their hearts, and are not afraid of Cao Sui and Li Zhen's 0.0 prestige. Man, it has to be said, this is a great tragedy.

Chapter 161

On the second day, Jian Yong and Guan Yu got Liu De's order, and took a few people outside to inquire about the news, and there was no clear purpose. Liu De just didn't want to be really blind in this capital, after all, in Liu De's opinion , even the Great Zhou Emperor who needed his own help was not [-]% credible.

And Liu De himself hid in the inn and played Go with Xun Yu to pass the time. Liu De held two black pieces in his hand and kept rubbing them. He stared at the board for a long time before he dropped a piece. Xun Yu followed up with another piece. He smiled and said to Liu De: "Master, your heart is a little messed up!"

Liu De was thinking about what to do next, when he heard Xun Yu's words suddenly, he sighed, threw two sunspots into the chess pot, and said, "I don't know if it's a blessing for us to join the overall situation of the court." Is it a disaster?"

Xun Yu comforted him and said: "There is an old saying: misfortune is where blessings rest, and blessings are where misfortune lies. The overall situation in the capital is like this game of chess, in which black and white pieces are intertwined, and those who kill are indistinguishable. And we It is just one of the chess pieces, which is in the hands of the chess player. When the critical moment is thrown into the battlefield, the world will be decided in one fell swoop. In this way, we can make this chess piece with peace of mind. If we win, we can return it; if we lose, it is not After a setback, there is still a chance, isn't it?"

"I still have Dongyu, and there are [-] soldiers behind me!" Liu De snorted coldly, "Crack!"

Loudly!

Leaving aside the chess game between Liu De and Xun Yu, Jian Yong and Guan Yu were looking around on the street at this time, or sending people to restaurants and other crowded places to see if they could get some useful information.

After all, in the capital, Liu De and others have no foundation or source of information, so they can only inquire about some recent information through this very clumsy method. Originally, someone suggested to obtain some information through the underground organization in Luodu.

But it was quickly rejected by Dian Wei. Dian Wei's argument was very simple. When the lord first visited Chen Situ, he was followed by spies from other forces. If he contacted those underground forces, he would be easily tracked down by the spies.

Xun Yu also said: "Many underground forces are behind those aristocratic families. As soon as we leave, they may report us to those behind-the-scenes aristocratic families, and instead expose us. After all, we are in the dark now, and it is safe. If If it is exposed, I am afraid His Majesty will throw us out immediately, and at that time Cao Sui will tear us to pieces like a wolf."

So in the end, Jian Yong and others only got some gossip news in the bustling place, and didn't get anything of great value.

"There are a lot of people gathering in front? Why don't we go and have a look!"

Jian Yong likes to be lively, seeing a circle of common people in front of him, he talked with great interest.

Guan Yu may feel that he has not completed the task assigned by the master bus, and he is a little irritable. Hearing Jian Yong's words, he readily agreed.

Jian Yong stopped a peddler who was watching the excitement, and asked, "May I ask what happened in front?"

The peddler was quite excited to watch, but was suddenly interrupted, and just wanted to get angry, but when he saw Guan Yu beside Jian Yong, he was immediately frightened by Guan Yu's figure and appearance, lowered his head, and whispered: "That yellow-faced man The man was selling horses in front of the inn, and he was valued by the rich man, but the rich man only wanted to buy the yellow-faced man's horse with a little money, and the yellow-faced man would not sell it, so there was a dispute. I can't ask for it!"

"Oh?"

Guan Yu pushed away the crowd and walked forward, Jian Yong followed behind, seeing the horse, he was overjoyed, and said to Guan Yu: "This horse is eight feet tall, with yellow hair all over its body, like golden thin scrolls, and its head It has white fur on it, its shape is round like a full moon, and there are many white spots on its belly and flanks, its name is: Huang Puma, and it is also known as Skull Dragon. It is also a rare BMW horse, and it is worth thousands of gold."

Guan Yu is also a person who knows horses, so of course he can see that this horse is extraordinary, and seeing that the son of the aristocratic family wants to buy this horse with a mere few copper coins, this is really a great insult to people.

Guan Yu said: "I think this yellow-faced man has a resolute face, bright eyes, a burly figure, a heroic appearance, and a steady footsteps. His tiger's mouth is full of calluses. This man is probably quite good at martial arts. He has both martial arts and money. There are so many ways to sell horses here, you should be a loyal and reputable man, if that is the case, I will buy this horse!"

Jian Yong hurriedly pulled Guan Yu back, "No, Lao Guan, you must not cause trouble. It will be bad for us to draw others' attention!"

"If the road is uneven, how can you not care about it? I, Guan Mou, will take care of everything!" Guan Yu pulled Jian Yong's hand away from his lapel, and strode up.

"Ugh!"

Jian Yong stomped his feet, of course he knew Guan Yu's temperament, unless the lord was in front, no one could restrain him.

"Do you know who my young master is? It's your honor that my young master has his eye on your horse. Don't be ignorant, take the money, and get the hell out of here!"

The servant next to the son of the aristocratic family was showing off his might, with indescribable contempt for the yellow-faced man in his eyes.

"You! You bully people too much! In broad daylight, the sky is bright, at the foot of the imperial city, such robbers are acting, aren't you afraid of the king's law?" The yellow-faced man pointed at the young man and cursed.

"Wang Fa? This son will let you see what Wang Fa is! Hit me! Beat me to death! I don't know how to praise things!" the young master yelled viciously.
