The system forced me to be emperor

Li Yuanfang still knocked on the door.

"Dong dong..."

The knock on the door attracted Qiu Lie who was drinking. He raised his head and glanced at the four people in front of the door. When he realized that they didn't recognize each other, he ignored them.

"Dare to ask, but General Qiu?" Li Yuanfang asked.

Qiu Lie continued to lie down, took a sip of wine, and shouted: "There is no such thing as General Qiu, you have found the wrong person, hurry up, and be careful that this general throws you with a wine jug!"

Li Yuanfang frowned, this person is just like a drunkard now, what can he ask?

Just when he continued to ask, Guo Jia stopped him, and Guo Jia said with a smile: "Since General Qiu is not here, we will leave. I wanted to inquire about some news from General Qiu about the Marquis of Zhenyuan. Since If so, that’s all.”

After finishing speaking, Guo Jia gave Xiao Rui a color, Xiao Rui understood, turned around and left without saying anything.

Qiu Lie was still sleeping on the couch, but his hand holding the wine jug paused in the air, his eyes flickering.

On the way back, Xiao Rui asked, "What did Feng Xiao see?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Your Highness, a general who is depressed and intoxicated, keeps his saber by his side all the time. Is this what an alcoholic should look like? Besides, his courtyard door is wide open, lying in the courtyard and drinking, isn't it just for the sake of drinking?" Did anyone else see it?"

Xiao Rui suddenly realized, and said: "Feng Xiao deliberately told this person that he inquired about the news of Marquis Zhenyuan in order to arouse his vigilance. If he is not drunk and addicted to fine wine, then he must take action!"

"Yes, we are waiting for his good news!" Guo Jia said with a smile.

Night fell quickly.

Xiao Rui was playing chess with Guo Jia, while Li Yuanfang and Dian Wei were watching the battle. Suddenly, Dian Wei and Li Yuanfang noticed someone outside the door, and they immediately went behind the door to observe.

"Dong dong..."

There was a knock on the door, and then a deep and deep voice sounded outside the door: "Can I meet the four friends inside?"

Xiao Rui dropped Bai Zi, said with a smile: "Feng Xiao's guess is really accurate, it's really here!"

Yuan Fang opened the door, and it turned out to be Qiu Lie outside the door!

Chapter 319: True and False Lord Hou

The door opened, and the Ranger General Qiu Lie really appeared outside the door!

I saw him wearing a gray gown, with a knife in his hand, filled with a murderous aura.At the same time, he has a cautious expression on his face, and his eyes are scrutinizing. He is not at all decadent indulging in fine wine, which is completely different from what he saw during the day.

This is the true character of a general!

Li Yuanfang invited him into the room, he scanned the four of them, and finally locked his eyes on Xiao Rui.

"My son this time, when you first arrived in Junzhen during the day, you inquired about my address, and then went directly to my house. I don't know why you are looking for my address? Also, what are you asking about Lord Zhenyuan? Judging from your accent, it should be an outsider. Right!" Qiu Lie asked coldly.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "General Qiu is not as drunk and dreamy as the rumors say, on the contrary, he has a plan in his heart. If so, why don't you guess?"

Qiu Lie shook his head, and said in a cold voice: "I don't have that ability, I ask the four of you to expressly tell the truth, don't hide it, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After finishing speaking, Qiu Lie gestured to the saber in his hand, as if he said that if he didn't tell the truth, he would let you all know why the knife is so sharp!

Xiao Rui gave him face and held back his smile.

Who gave you the courage to say that you are ruthless in front of Yuan Fang and Dian Wei?Could it be that the two of them are pressing you on the ground and rubbing against each other rhythmically, let's see who is ruthless!

Xiao Rui waved his hand, and Li Yuanfang took out the official seal and token of the supervisory censor. After Qiu Lie looked at it, he didn't take it seriously: "The young master is the lord of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but with his official position, it's better not to ask the Lord Marquis casually." What happened! There are not only supervisory censors in the military town, but three of them!"

"The supervisory censor has the power to supervise military affairs, so he can't ask about the affairs of Lord Hou, but he has accepted so many adoptive sons, so he can always check it!" Xiao Rui said.

Qiu Lie asked: "My lord is here to investigate the military affairs of the military town? If that's the case, I advise you to leave early, don't fall into danger, and waste your life in vain!"

Xiao Rui showed a bright smile, it seems that there is something tricky here!

"General Qiu must know something, can you tell me the truth?" Xiao Rui asked.

Qiu Lie shook his head and said, "Since you are an official of the imperial court, follow my advice and leave quickly! Asking too many questions will do you no good!"

Xiao Rui looked at Guo Jia, Guo Jia nodded, so Xiao Rui took out the Prince's Order, threw it to Qiu Lie, and asked: "Now, can this king know?"

Qiu Lie received the prince's order, and after seeing the token clearly, his cautious expression was filled with shock. He quickly held up the token with both hands, and said respectfully: "The general has no eyes, and offended His Royal Highness King Xian, the general is willing to accept all punishments." ! The final general implores His Highness to be the master of Lord Hou!"

Xiao Rui waved his hand and asked Li Yuanfang to help him up, and said: "When we first arrived in the military town, we found out that you are one of the few generals who can contact the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and have not been recruited by him as a son and punished by him. , so I also believe that you may be able to ask something different from your mouth. What happened to Zhenyuanhou? Could it be that he has really changed a person, so he changed from the integrity and loyalty to the conniving righteousness now. Are you corrupt and perverting the law, or even suspected of forming a party for personal gain?"

"No! Lord Marquis absolutely not!" Qiu Lie hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, it is not a bad thing for your lord to punish the general, because when he punishes the general, the general can see him with his own eyes! That's why the general can find out about the current Lord Marquis." Not the real Marquis!"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Rui hurriedly asked.

Qiu Lie said: "Your Highness doesn't know something. Although the last general has been added as a knight-errant general, he was the Hou Ye's bodyguard many years ago and has been following him, so he is familiar with the situation of the Hou Ye. Lord Hou, although his appearance has not changed, but his gestures are definitely not the same as Lord Hou!"

"You mean, even though the Marquis of Zhenyuan is still the Marquis of Zhenyuan, with the same skin, but the souls are two completely different people!" Xiao Rui said.

Qiu Lie nodded solemnly, and said: "That's right! The general knows that this is unbelievable, but it is true. In the past two years, Lord Hou has not managed military affairs by himself. An old subordinate like me! So this strengthens the general's conjecture, the current Lord Hou is definitely not the real Lord Hou. But the general wants to break his head, but he can't figure it out. Could it be that Lord Hou is sick?"

Xiao Rui and Guo Jia looked at each other, they happened to experience Jin Yuner's personality change, they were completely different, could it be that Marquis Zhenyuan also suffered from split personality?

impossible!

Xiao Rui immediately vetoed this guess, Zhenyuan Hou is 50 years old and still has split personality, do you really think split personality is so easy to get?

Guo Jia calculated: "Since two years ago, the Marquis of Zhenyuan has become mysterious, unwilling to meet people he used to know, and began to recruit adopted sons, form cronies, and withhold military salaries, and now he has reached into the trade between the two countries to seek Private. If General Qiu is right, then the Marquis of Zhenyuan might not be the real Marquis!"

Qiu Lie sighed and said: "This is also the place where the last general can't figure it out!"

"Master Hou's appearance hasn't changed in any way, it's impossible for someone else to disguise himself! Could it be that Master Hou was coerced and threatened by others?"

"Impossible!" Xiao Rui retorted: "What kind of person is the Marquis of Zhenyuan, he is not afraid of the shrouded body of horse leather, how could he be threatened!"

"In addition, who stipulates that the same face is a person?" Xiao Rui asked back.

"Your Highness is referring to the human skin mask?" Guo Jia said.

Xiao Rui nodded, and said: "With the clever disguise technique and the human skin mask, you can imitate lifelike, but the appearance can be imitated, but the character and character cannot be imitated, so Zhenyuan Hou will not see acquaintances."

Guo Jia said solemnly: "If the current Marquis of Zhenyuan is fake, then this person is really daring. Besides, where is the real Marquis? Could it be that he has been killed?"

"No one was killed!" Qiu Lie said, "Your Highness, if the Marquis of Zhenyuan is a fake, we must keep the real Marquis to deal with the flaws we are facing, otherwise it will be easier to leak it, just like the last general, now I suspect him true or false."

Guo Jia also said: "It's impossible to be killed, but I'm more curious about who these people are and how they did it!"

Xiao Rui is also very curious, who can have this method, can kidnap the real Marquis silently, and replace it with a fake one, and even persisted for so long, if Xiao Rui hadn't come here, what would Qiu Lie doubt? use?He is just a ranger general from the fifth rank.

"Then let's reveal the true face of the real Marquis, but... how to do it? If I don't reveal my identity, I won't be able to get close to the Marquis of Zhenyuan at all!" Xiao Rui wondered.

Guo Jia looked at Qiu Lie and asked, "Who is the Marquis of Zhenyuan closest to, and who does he often see?"
