Three Kingdoms: Damn Liu Daer, dare to steal my horse!

There is not even a wall between the two, just a few wooden pillars.

At this moment, Yuan Xi was standing in front of the wooden pillar, only a short distance away from Baichuan.

There were welt marks all over Yuan Xi's body, and the fresh wounds were still oozing blood.

It looked like he had just been interrogated.

Bai Chuan raised his eyes slightly, looked at Yuan Xi, sneered, and did not answer.

Yuan Xi couldn't help frowning, gritted his teeth and said:

"If there is a weapon in hand at this time, I will let your blood splatter on the spot!"

Bai Chuan cast a contemptuous glance at Yuan Xi:

"With your virtue, you are even worse than your father. How can you talk about revenge?"

"However, tens of thousands of people have been summoned, and someone is providing information, so you want to assassinate Cao Cao?"

"Oh yes, your father Yuan Benchu ​​is a waste, how can your son be any better?"

"It's a joke, it's really a big joke!"

Yuan Xi's eyes widened:

"You are not allowed to insult my father!"

Bai Chuan narrowed his eyes, stood up slowly, and looked at Yuan Xi with wide eyes:

"Insulting your father?"

"If it weren't for your rash action, I'm afraid Cao Cao would be a dead man now!"

"You ruined my plan. If there is a knife at your fingertips at this time, you should be the one who dies!"

Senseless.

Yuan Xi was completely dumbfounded:

"Plan? What plan?"

Bai Chuan's words made Yuan Xi confused for a while.

If he hadn't acted by himself, Cao Cao would have died?

Could it be that Bai Chuan originally wanted to put Cao Cao to death?

"You are Cao Cao's loyal dog, would you be willing to let him die?"

"Don't try to lie to me!"

Yuan Xi said viciously, holding the wooden pillar firmly with bloody and scarred hands, his eyes revealed endless killing intent.

"Small boy, you ruined my plan, and now you are still blaming me here?"

"If it weren't for a self-righteous idiot like you, the big man would have been put down already!"

Chapter 223 Qinghe Cui Family

In Bai Chuan's eyes, there was endless hatred and annoyance.

It seems that it is really the feeling that the big plan has not come true.

If Cao Cao was here at this time, he would definitely give Bai Chuan an Oscar statuette.

Yuan Xi was not considered to be a smart person, but when he saw Bai Chuan like this, he couldn't help being startled.

Could it be that what he said was true?

Thinking about it now, why did Bai Chuan appear in this cell?

Although he has not been interrogated yet, judging by the attitude of the Tiger Guards towards him, it seems that he has committed some heinous crime.

Judging by Bai Chuan's appearance at this time, it doesn't seem like he is lying.

"Why did you come here?"

Yuan Xi asked puzzledly.

"You don't deserve to know."

After Bai Chuan left a word, he lay down on the couch and turned his head away, ignoring him.

To deal with Yuan Xi, one must play hard to get.

Although Yuan Xi is stupid, he is not so stupid as to believe everyone.

Bai Chuan came here this time to create a unique investigation environment for Cao Cao, so as to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Secondly, he came here to try to get something out of Yuan Xi.

It will take some time to gain Yuan Xi's trust and let him vomit what he knows.

At least, he had to believe that he was actually lurking beside Cao Cao and wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate Cao Cao.

"What do you mean by what you said?"

Yuan Xi almost roared.

Compared with death, what he fears more is the unknown.

Bai Chuan is an unknown factor.

From the various performances just now to the present, it is obvious that Bai Chuan hates Cao Cao so much that he can't wait to tear Cao Cao into pieces.

However, Bai Chuan completely disrupted his plan with his own power, and it is true that he lost so horribly now.

For a moment, Yuan Xi didn't know what to do.

What secret is this person hiding?

Looking at Bai Chuan's back, Yuan Xi couldn't help frowning.

In this way, the two remained silent for a whole night.

In the early morning of the next day, Bai Chuan was taken out of the cell by the jailer.

Yuan Xi thought that Bai Chuan was going to be interrogated, but he didn't care much about it.

But he absolutely did not expect that this time Bai Chuan was not being interrogated, but someone came looking for him.

When he walked out of the prison cell and came to the place of interrogation, Zhong Yao rushed over, cupped his hands and said:

"The officer has seen the general."

Even though Bai Chuan is now a prisoner, Zhong Yao knows very well that things are definitely not as simple as they appear on the surface.

What's more, although Dali Siqing is the third rank, Bai Chuan's official position is much higher than him.

It is not an official position for a sergeant to sacrifice wine, but after the First World War in Xiliang, Bai Chuan's general position is the second rank!

Therefore, Zhong Yao should be polite to Bai Chuan.

"Master Zhong doesn't need to do this, I'm just a prisoner now."

Bai Chuan smiled slightly and said:

"I don't know who is looking for me?"

Bai Chuan knew in his heart that if Zhong Yao wanted to interrogate himself, he would definitely not have this attitude, and he would not let all the jailers who brought him go out.

Now there are only myself and Zhong Yao in the entire interrogation room, and I haven't tied myself up yet.

Since he was not the one to interrogate him, the most likely possibility is that someone came to find him.

At this moment, a hearty voice came over:

"Mr. Bai's guess is right, I want to discuss with Mr. Bai."

"That's why I have no choice but to ask brother Yuanchang for help, please come out, sir."

Hearing this, Bai Chuan was not surprised at all.

Because, the person who spoke was Cheng Yu.

Seeing this, Zhong Yao saluted and left in a hurry.

He is a smart man, and he knows that the next conversation between the two is not suitable for him to listen to.

That being the case, why would I bother myself here.

"Mr. Bai knows I'm coming?"

Cheng Yu couldn't help saying curiously.

Bai Chuan nodded slightly:

"Yes and no."

"It seems that the prime minister has given you this very special task."

Hearing this, Cheng Yu couldn't help laughing bitterly.

It seems that my guess is correct, Bai Chuan's imprisonment this time must be the result of discussing with Cao Cao.

As for the reason, it must be suspicion of the gentry, wanting to investigate among the gentry, and use Bai Chuan as a cover to confuse the eyes of the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Mr. is really astute."

"The only thing I can't figure out is where to start."

Cheng Yu opened his mouth slowly and went straight to the topic.

He knew that since Bai Chuan chose to go to prison, the time to come out this time must be extremely limited.

You must not waste your time.

Bai Chuan slowly opened his mouth and said:

"Can you start to investigate some gentry?"

Cheng Yu nodded and said:

"At present, the Xun family and the Sima family, which are the most easy to check, I have already checked them all."

"But they found nothing."

Bai Chuan smiled helplessly:

"Of course there will be nothing."

"Xun Yu has acquiesced to King Wei's appointment as king, and Xun You fully supports King Wei, so naturally he will not oppose it."

"As for the Sima family, Sima Fang is old and doesn't have such courage at all."

"Sima Bada has never been a Hanchen, let alone interacted with the Yuan family."

"These two are definitely not behind the scenes."

Cheng Yu looked rather embarrassed.

After the investigation was completed, Cheng Yu also thought about it, but Bai Chuan just heard the names of the two families and drew his own conclusions.

"Then, which families should we investigate from?"

Bai Chuan glanced at Cheng Yu, narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"Qinghe Cui family, Cui Yan."

Hearing this, Cheng Yu was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized:

"Why didn't I think of it?"

The Cui family of Qinghe is the noble family that Cui Yan belongs to.

Earlier, Cui Yan followed Yuan Shao, the Mu of Jizhou. After Yuan Shao was defeated in the first battle of Guandu, Cui Yan followed Cao Cao.

He taught Cao Pi, and his daughter married Cao Zhi.

After Cao Cao proclaimed the public, he served as the minister of the book, with a weight as high as a mountain.

Thinking about it now, Cui Yan is indeed the most suspicious object.

After all, the Cui family had followed Yuan Shao before, and they had known Yuan Xi for a long time.

Moreover, Cui Yan has a high position and authority, and he can know Cao Cao's whereabouts like the palm of his hand.
