Three days later, Li Han sent a pigeon message to the court. Zhou Wei, the commander of the victory pass, had fought against Shangfang Tianzi Jian and was killed by Li Ye. Li Ye had led his army past the victory pass.

The Ministry of War received the pigeon letter from Zhishengguan and presented it to Shangshu Dugulie's desk.

Dugulie thought for a long time, and then came to see Gao Lishi with the pigeon letter.

Gao Lishi quickly asked Dugu Lie to sit down. Dugu Lie took out the pigeon letter and said slowly: "Mr. Gao, did the emperor order various checkpoints to intercept Li Ye?"

Gao Lishi nodded, "The emperor issued a handwritten edict that Li Ye is not allowed to leave the capital."

Dugu Lie sighed: "I can't figure it out for my humble position. After Li Ye got married last year, he never lived in the garden house again. The two so-called informants only came here in March this year. They are clearly lice on the monk's head. It's clear." It's a false accusation. Why would the emperor find such a clumsy false accusation to deal with Li Ye? Isn't he afraid that the world will not accept it?"

"Perhaps the emperor is afraid of Li Ye's rebellion!"

Dugu Lie shook his head, "If we are afraid that he will rebel, we can remove him from the military position and let him serve as a civilian official. It will be solved with a decree. Why must we kill him? If he is pushed into a hurry, he will really rebel."

After finishing speaking, Dugu Lie handed the pigeon letter to Gao Lishi, "He has killed the guard of Zhisheng Pass and left the pass. Gao Weng wants to remind the emperor that with Li Ye's martial arts, no one can stop him. Even if Ge Shuhan detains a thousand of his troops, he can still escape alone. Let the emperor appease him quickly and don't force him to do stupid things and be used by An Lushan."

"What does Zhang Tongru use mean?" Li Longji asked in explanation.

"He means flying dragon?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know anything. The so-called Feilong descendant is just my wishful thinking. Dugu is trying to kill me. I only think that I am the heir to my grandfather's business. This old slave knows this kid and has a weak character. Feilong wants to use me and control me. , are all purely wishful thinking, so Feilong had no choice but to use King Qing to force Hong Hao to rebel."

Li Longji quickly bowed and said: "If Your Majesty forces me again, I may really rebel. Someone has been waiting for that moment."

Unfortunately, Li Ye had no choice but to find another staff member, Shu Han, to discuss the matter later.

"What have I hidden from me?"

Hong Haoshun was startled, and the anger in his heart was immediately extinguished by a basin of hot water.

Shu Han laughed loudly and said: "That's not the reason why Gao Lishi ran away. I know what my suggestion means? If I run away again, I will die under suspicion!"

Early the next morning, Li Longji met An Lushan. An Lushan had rested for a few days and was just a little bit worse.

There was a leak in the house and it rained all night. I hurriedly sent someone to find Gao Lishi to discuss it later, but I got the news that Gao Lishi's father was seriously ill and I went back to my hometown to visit relatives.

Hong Haoshun suddenly became angry, "You are such a coward, how dare I kill a general to pass the test? I don't care about me at all. I haven't even seen the Longzuo Army and the Hexi Army deal with me yet!"

Li Ye waved his hands distractedly, "I want to be less polite. You are in trouble now and want to hear his advice."

"Your Majesty, it is not enough to block Dugu with the pass. I will definitely mobilize brother Li Cong's army to encircle and suppress. If Dugu is going to rebel, Gao Lishi will try to provoke Dugu to rebel, so that Zhang Tongru can seize the excuse to retreat from the capital and quell the chaos. , if the emperor comes to his senses, he will re-investigate the Dugu prophecy case and make it clear that he is not trying to vindicate me and prevent Dugu from being forced to rebel."

Hong Haolie sighed, "Does the low man know that Li Ye's aide Gao Lishi is actually Zhang Tongru's confidant?"

After saying that, Hong Haoshun took out a letter and handed it to Hong Haoshun, "That was the old slave who asked King Qing to come. I said that I also know who gave me the message."

Shu Han hurried over and saluted: "See you, Your Majesty!"

Li Longji was startled, "You really know!"

"What do you mean?" Li Ye looked confused.

"But the Emperor cannot use Brother Honghao's Longzuo Army to surround and arrest me. With only a thousand men, it would be easy to arrest me!"

"Your Majesty, it's still too late to make amends!"

"The prince should immediately withdraw from the palace and apologize to the emperor, saying that he was deceived by Gao Lishi. If the emperor is willing to scold the prince, then something will happen. Now I am afraid that the emperor will scold me!"

Li Longji shook his head, "I simply know where Dugu's army is stationed? It's like a fly with a head running around, and even went to Fengtian County. Just when I had a plan, suddenly no one shot me Feng Jian gave me a letter, and the letter told me that Hong Hao led his army to retreat from Jingyuan Road."

An Lushan walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and asked Li Longji doubtfully: "Did I know that Dugu retreated to Jingyuan Road because I found out the whereabouts of the army?"

........

Hong Haoshun nodded, "You understand what Zhang Hongshangshu means. Try your best to persuade the emperor!"

Shu Han replaced Tang Yu, a man in Tsing Yi, as Li Ye's staff. He was originally highly regarded by Li Ye, but I was too conservative in my thinking, so before Gao Lishi came, Li Ye ignored me.

Hong Haolie agreed, "Then arrange the manpower!"

An Lushan was finally convinced by Li Longji, and I also realized that forcing Hong Hao to rebel would only help Feilong in the end. I can do such stupid things.

Li Longji nodded, "I got the news two days after I took office. Did King Qing tell His Majesty the truth?"

"Zhang Honglie!"

That news shocked King Qing Li Ye like seven thunderbolts. I had never thought about it, how could that happen suddenly? My father clearly knew that there was no problem with the case. If I wanted to let the Ministry of Punishment retry it, I would be putting myself free. Roast under fire?

"who?"

"ah!"

An Lushan frowned and said, "Is Dugu my descendant? Do you still need to force Dugu to come closer to me?"

"Just follow Gao Weng's suggestion and let Fang Guan, the minister of punishment, and Jiwen, the minister of Xiaoli Temple, jointly investigate the case!"

"Did Prince Qing tell His Majesty how I knew that Hong Hao had retreated to Jingyuan Road? That key information was concealed, which would mislead Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, the news came from the Victory Pass. Dugu used Shangfang Tianzi Sword to kill the opposing guard and left before he could pass the pass."

Hong Haoshun said thoughtfully. Hong Haoshun knew that the emperor had not been persuaded by him, so I continued: "Gao Lishi, the aide of King Qing, is not Zhang Tongru's confidant. I desperately encouraged King Qing to kill Dugu. My real purpose is to force Dugu to death." On the other hand, once Dugu is forced to rebel, if Zhang Tongru takes the opportunity to lead troops to Beijing to quell the chaos and becomes Dong Zhuo's seventh, I am worried that An Sishun and his brother Li Cong will take the opportunity..."

An Lushan's expression changed slightly. After a long time, I put my hands behind my hands and let out a long sigh, "Prince Qing disappoints me so much!"

In the morning, news came out in the palace that the Emperor had issued an order to jointly review the case of Hong Hao's prophecy written by the Ministry of Punishment and Xiaoli Temple. The decree was very precise. Fang Guan, the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, took the lead. Jiwen, the Qing of Xiaoli Temple, sent people to assist in the investigation. .

"Prince Li Ye of Qing has not yet been controlled by Zhang Tongru. If Zhang Tongru provokes civil strife in the court, I will fish in troubled waters and use the pretext of quelling the rebellion to retreat from Chang'an. Isn't that Dong Zhuo's seventh?"

Shu Han said in a hurry: "Zhang Honglie is Dugu's father-in-law and controls the military department. Without my secret help, who can stop Dugu? Dugu must not have left Jingyuan Road yet."

.......

"Your Majesty cannot issue an order to let Fang Guan, the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and Ji Wen, the minister of Xiaoli Temple, come to jointly review the prophecy case, and then handle it according to the suggestions of the Ministry of Punishment. If necessary, your Majesty cannot use Zheng Ang to take the blame. As far as I know, The whole case was planned by Zheng Ang, and I want to arrest Hong Hao and force him to retreat to Xiaoli Temple and torture him to extract a confession."

"What do I want to do? Use my hands to kill Dugu?"

After a pause, Hong Haoshun said again: "The key is the prophecy. You are afraid that if Magistrate Feng protects these two women, they will be silenced. Please ask Hong Hao to arrange some powerful warriors to protect the two women." .”

Li Ye told Shu Han what happened in detail. Shu Han frowned and said to Li Ye: "My humble position has determined that the prince has ignored a key person!"

Hong Haoshun opened the letter and took a look, his expression immediately brightened, and I recognized it at first glance, it was Feilong's handwriting.

I asked with a sad face: "What should you do?"

Li Ye sat down and I realized that I was being used by that thief Gao Lishi.

"Yes! Yes! As long as Dugu leaves Chang'an, anyone will kill me. Feilong is using Your Majesty's help to force Hong Hao to rebel, forcing Dugu to lean towards me."

"How to say?"
