Han Song was not Sun Ce's opponent at all, and he retreated repeatedly after being hacked by his stormy sword.

In front of so many people, Sun Ce would accept it as soon as he saw it.With a single stroke of his sword, Han Songzhen retreated a few steps, and he stood up with his sword back.The point of the sword pointed at the ground, his legs were slightly apart, his handsome face was raised, and he posed in a very chic and handsome posture. Sun Ce gave Han Song a mocking look: "Jingzhou is used to sneak attacks, but my Sun Bofu likes to kill the enemy in a dignified manner! The death of Liu Jingsheng has nothing to do with my Sun family. I will only say this once, believe it or not, it is up to you!"

After speaking, without lowering his head, he sheathed the long sword with his backhand, shook his sleeves, returned to his seat and knelt down again.

Chu Tianshu couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.Even if it was her, if she didn't use her mental strength to determine it in advance, she would not be able to guarantee success in completing such a backhand into the sheath. How many times did Sun Ce practice behind his back?Sun Bofu, who likes to be handsome, should have a common language with Ma Mengqi, who likes to wear beautiful clothes.

She turned to look at Xie Kun and signaled with her eyes that she felt that Sun Ce was not lying.

What Chu Tianshu is concerned about now is where Dong Cheng can find such a elusive assassin.Not just anyone holding Yitian can stab Liu Biao to death easily, and then leave without a trace.Chu Tianshu and his wife can naturally do it, but not many others can do it.Where did Dong Cheng find such a master?With such a master, why not assassinate Cao Cao, but kill Liu Biao instead?This doesn't make sense.

After all, what Dong Cheng really wanted to get rid of was Cao Cao. If he couldn't kill Cao Cao, he went around and killed Liu Biao and planted Cao Cao, and let the princes fight against Cao Cao together, that would be justified.But with such a powerful assassin, who can buy Cao Cao's guards and kill Cao Cao directly, his goal can be achieved. There is no need to kill Liu Biao.

Unless it is - this person can only kill Liu Biao, not Cao Cao!

Xie Kun grabbed Chu Tianshu's hand, and in the wide sleeve, slowly wrote two characters on the palm of Chu Tianshu's palm: traitor.

Yes, there are traitors around Liu Biao.Liu Biao never thought that the traitor would assassinate him, that's why he succeeded in a sneak attack.And the guards around Liu Biao didn't expect this person to be a traitor, even if they saw him appearing near the scene, they didn't suspect him at all.This will give people the illusion that the assassin has extraordinary skills and comes and goes without a trace.

Dong Cheng stole Cao Cao's Yitian sword, let the traitors around Liu Biao assassinate Liu Biao, and left the sword on the spot, so that all the princes who came to the meeting thought that Cao Cao had ulterior motives, and invited them to the field hunting, in fact, to get rid of them .Then he encouraged the princes to join forces and get rid of Cao Cao.Dong Cheng then took over Cao Cao's army and political legacy in the name of the emperor.

Such a plan sounds good, but Cao Cao is not a three-year-old kid, standing there stupidly at their mercy.In fact, Chu Tianshu could feel that Cao Cao looked very sad and angry on the surface, but in fact, his real emotion was faintly full of excitement.

This is Cao Cao's home court, Dong Cheng's every move, would he really be ignorant?

If Liu Biao's traitor killed Liu Biao, a new problem would arise: the traitor could gain Liu Biao's trust, it must not be a newcomer around Liu Biao, but a confidant brought by Liu Biao from Jingzhou.How did Dong Cheng hook up with this traitor?Could it be that he has the ability to predict and has placed people around Liu Biao many years in advance?The chances of this are too small.

It's not that Chu Tianshu looked down on him, if Dong Cheng had this ability, he wouldn't be like this.

That is to say, it is very likely that there is one or several bridge characters between Dong Cheng and Liu Biao, the traitor, and this "bridge" connects through them, allowing Dong Cheng and the traitor to reach an agreement.Who will this "bridge" be?

Han Song glared at Sun Ce fiercely, but there was no evidence, so he could only retreat to his position.

Wenpin kept staring at Cao Cao, waiting for his statement.Yuan Shao laughed all over his face: "If Prime Minister Cao invites me in the future, please forgive me if I don't come. After all, I don't want to die in Xuchang like Liu Jingsheng."

He emphasized the three words "Prime Minister Cao", and the meaning of ridicule was beyond words.He originally wanted to teach Cao Cao a lesson and make him ashamed, but now it seems that he doesn't have to do anything. Isn't Liu Biao's death enough to embarrass Cao Cao?

"Anyone with eyes can see that there are villains behind the scenes, trying to frame the prime minister. Yuan Benchu, you really can't see it, or are you with those villains?" Gongsun Zan sneered, and directly yelled at Yuan Shao.

"Gongsun Bogui, what benefit did Cao Mengde give you?" Yuan Shao reacted quickly, and immediately looked at Gongsun Zan suspiciously, "Could it be that you were beaten by Princess Luoning that day, and you went to Cao Mengde and cried, what did Cao Mengde promise you? Hehe, don't blame me for not reminding you, Cao Mengde listens to whatever he says, and there will be no good end in the end."

The Sun Ce brothers didn't speak, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were their father's former lords, and Liu Biao was their father-killing enemy. They said nothing bad.As long as it doesn't set the fire on them, they just watch.

Liu Bei even looked helpless and sad, covering his head in pain.

Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao quarreled, Yuan Shu just sneered.

Cao Cao showed a helpless expression: "Everyone, what we have to do now is to catch the murderer who assassinated Liu Jingsheng. What's the use of arguing here?" All the family members of the family are arrested, and they are not afraid that they will not speak up. If you are not at ease, go and listen to the interrogation, and if you have any questions, you can ask them yourself."

Although Liu Biao died, everyone looked filled with righteous indignation, but there were probably not many people who were really sad for Liu Biao—maybe there were a few?It's just that I'm afraid it's not as sad as Xie Xi.

When Xie Xi heard that "Uncle Jing Sheng" whom he had only met once died like this, his little face showed a rare sadness.Although she is only four years old, she has seen many deaths and knows what death means.

"I quite like that Uncle Jing Sheng." She murmured, and took out the suet jade ring from her box, rubbed it with her small hands a few times, and put it back again.

Xie Kun and Chu Tianshu didn't let her avoid them either, and discussed their views on Liu Biao's assassination in front of her.

"So, Uncle Jing Sheng was probably killed by someone he trusted around him in a sneak attack?" Xie Xi listened quietly, and asked a very mature question in a childlike voice.

Xie Kun nodded: "Very likely."

"Why?" Xie Xi was still young after all, unable to understand this complicated relationship, "Uncle Jing Sheng trusted him, why did he kill Uncle Jing Sheng?"

"Benefits." Xie Kun said concisely.Perhaps their interests were once the same, but unconsciously, as circumstances changed, their interests collided.When the benefits brought by killing Liu Biao were greater, the traitor chose to betray.

Xie Xi nodded with a half understanding.

"So if you want people to be loyal to you forever, you have to figure out what they want and make sure you can always give them what they want. Some people want wealth, some people want affection, and some people want Fame... Everyone has different interests and needs, you need to observe carefully and analyze carefully."

"And remember, the environment is constantly changing, and people's needs are also constantly changing. There is no such thing as a once-and-for-all approach to employing people. You must always pay attention, you know?"

Xie Xi held his small chin and pouted his petal-like mouth: "Okay, I will learn slowly."

In the evening, Wenpin and Han Song returned to the camp with tired and heavy faces.They personally supervised the interrogation of Wu Shuo and Ji Ping.When Wu Shuo's three-year-old son was approached by a red iron, Wu Shuo finally spoke.

It was General Wei and Dong Guiren's father, Dong Cheng, who showed them the emperor's blood-lettery edict, connected officials who were dissatisfied with Cao Cao in the court, and planned this operation.They originally wanted to assassinate Cao Cao in the field hunting grounds, and even arranged the division of labor for each person, but found that there was no chance to get close to Cao Cao.

Wu Shuo bribed the guards who had been able to ask for it for a long time, and still maintained the last vigilance against him.

Just when they were at a loss, Dong Cheng suddenly told them excitedly that someone had provided him with a new plan.That is to assassinate Liu Biao, frame Cao Cao, arouse the anger of the participating princes, and deal with Cao Cao together!

Wu Shuo changed his rhetoric and told Cao Cao's guards that he had been close to him only because he liked swords, and wanted him to steal the Yitian sword to watch and play for a while.The guard was relieved and stole the Yitian Sword, but Wu Shuo murdered him and took the sword away.

Then Wu Shuo gave the sword to Dong Cheng. As for how Dong Cheng got in touch with people and how he assassinated Liu Biao, he didn't know.

The same is true for Ji Ping. He was planning to poison Cao Cao when he was seeing a doctor, but he didn't have a chance.Later, Dong Cheng changed his plan and asked him to prepare laxatives, and he didn't know who he gave them to after taking them away.

"The traitor must be caught." Wenpin said to Han Song.

Han Song asked to bring up the guards who had been detained all this time.When Liu Bin saw them, he yelled: "General Wen, General Han, I remember!"

Liu Bin is Liu Biao's nephew. He is skilled, docile and loyal. When Liu Biao is alone, he is always by his side.He ate the same food as the other guards that day, the only difference was that one of Liu Biao’s concubines gave him some snacks from his hometown—because that concubine was somewhat related to him, and his hometown was also in the same county. Her seniority is still considered to be his cousin. On weekdays, when Liu Bin goes home to visit relatives, he will bring her a letter from home, something, and so on.

Sometimes the concubine's room made some hometown snacks, and would give Liu Bin some to try.This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened. Liu Bin was quite happy when he received it. He ate two yuan without thinking about it at all, and happily went to the camp to stay on duty again.

Unexpectedly, he would start to have a stomachache next time, running to Gong's room again and again.

"Actually, the last time I went there, I was already afraid that I would make a mistake. I thought that after I came out, I would find a reliable brother to stand by for me, so as not to be taken advantage of. Who knows, it would be too late!" Liu Bin Too late to regret, "General Han, you should still remember?"

Han Song glanced at him and nodded: "I remember, you told me."

Liu Bin had just come out of Gong's room, and when he was about to reach Liu Biao's camp of the Chinese army, he heard a scream.

He quickened his pace and happened to meet Han Song who was patrolling in the camp, so he told Han Song that he had run to Gongfang three times, and mentioned that he was going to change his guard.Han Song had a serious face at the time, and told him to go back and deal with the matter quickly.

As a result, Liu Bin rushed to the tent, and saw Wenpin was already standing in the tent, while Liu Biao was lying on the desk, with a gleaming sword stuck on his back!

"Is there any more snacks that Mrs. Qing gave you?" Wen Pin stared at Liu Bin with sharp eyes.Mrs. Qing is Liu Bin's cousin and Liu Biao's concubine.

"It should still be there." Without waiting for Liu Bin to answer, Han Song said, "At that time, I ordered them to be locked up, and all the places where the guards lived were strictly guarded by me, and no one was allowed to enter. "

Wen Pin and Han Song went to Liu Bin's residence in person, and they saw a small wooden box next to the bed in the camp. There were six cakes in it, but now there are four left.

The doctor accompanying the army was called to check, and it was easy to find that these snacks were sprinkled with colorless and odorless laxatives.

"General Wen, General Han, Mrs. Qing committed suicide!" However, the soldiers sent to capture Mrs. Qing soon returned and reported that Mrs. Qing was dead.
