Everything on Bailiheng's side went according to plan, and on the other side, Shi Qinghuan naturally went smoothly. When he arrived at Xiangfu, he not only rescued Wu Fan's sister, but also left something behind before leaving.
Wu Fan's sister suffered a lot of torture, and since she escaped, the two brothers and sisters were naturally grateful to Shi Qinghuan.
According to the original plan, Shi Qinghuan asked Wu Fan to take his sister to leave Hexi as soon as possible, while he and Zhang Yue returned to the Qingyang Marquis Mansion.
After hearing what Bailiheng said, Mr. He had already hurried back to his house, leaving only Marquis Qingyang holding Bailiheng's hand and planning for a long time.
Only when it was time for dinner, Shi Qinghuan hurried to the dining room.
With a worried look on his face, "Don't eat it, it's poisonous."
What?
Qingyanghou's fingertips trembled, and Bailiheng stood up to greet Shi Qinghuan.
"what happened?"
Shi Qinghuan quickly felt Bailiheng's pulse, "Sit down quickly and eat this!"
He took out the pills and gave them to Bailiheng to take, and then handed the pills to Marquis Qingyang.
Then Shi Qinghuan sprinkled the medicine powder from another medicine bottle on the vegetables, and the vegetables instantly turned black.
This scared Qingyang Hou Ke so much that he quickly took the pill.
"What's going on? I've obviously tried poison."
"This is not an ordinary poison that cannot be tested with a silver needle. Moreover, this poison will not cause sudden death immediately. Instead, it will cause the poisoned person to die slowly in his sleep, just like a sudden death. Why don't you use it? It’s not much, if you take my medicine, you’ll be fine.”
“This is to kill people without anyone noticing, and it’s hard to hold anyone accountable!”
After Qingyang Hou finished speaking, he looked at Bailiheng with a pale face, "It seems that the young master is right. Someone has already taken action, and I can't sit still and wait for death."
"The Marquis has a plan, so I won't say more. However, if there is poisoning, we still have to investigate it from the mansion."
"Young Master is right."
"Then we won't disturb you. The Marquis is busy first."
After Bailiheng finished speaking, he pulled Shi Qinghuan and left together.
When they returned to the courtyard, the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Another good show. Now, Marquis Qingyang should not hesitate anymore."
"That's right, life and death are at the forefront. It's time for chaos in Hexi."
"Then everything will be fine with Fang Sizheng!"
"No, Zhongcheng is one of our own, and Zhang Tong is by his side, so nothing will happen to him. We can just wait for the opportunity."
A fisherman's opportunity.
Just as Bailiheng expected, in the next few days, Hexi was really in chaos, and the internal fighting between various departments, overt and covert, became inextricable for a while.
Some people died suddenly overnight, some were killed in the street, and some fought between two factions...
During this period, Fang Zhiheng intervened one by one and dealt with the defeated soldiers one by one.
In this way, those people in Hexi realized that they had fallen into the trap.
But it's too late.
The night was dark, the stars and moon were hidden in the clouds, and it was dark.
Bailiheng stood by the window, watching the fireworks blooming in the night sky, his lips curled up slightly, "It's time."
Shi Qinghuan stood side by side with him, "Yes, we can close the net!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came over and announced, "Sir, the Marquis wants to see you."
"I'll go right away."
Bailiheng turned around and walked out, and Shi Qinghuan quickly followed, "I'll accompany you."
"No, Zhang Yue will send you out first."
"But."
"obedient."
Shi Qinghuan understood his ability and could only nod, "Okay, I'll wait for you outside."
Bailiheng smiled and nodded, and after he left, Zhang Yue took Shi Qinghuan all the way out of the Hou Mansion.
Outside the Hou Mansion, there were already heavy troops surrounding them, led by Fang Zhiheng.
Fang Zhiheng stood on the horse with a murderous aura, just like two people.
Shi Qinghuan looked at him with admiration. Fang Zhiheng nodded when he saw Shi Qinghuan, and Shi Qinghuan stood aside.
At the same time, when Bailiheng arrived at the front hall, many people had gathered in the hall, and there were also many soldiers and horses outside the hall.
After the remnants reacted, they all gathered here.
As soon as they saw Baili Trung, Marquis Qingyang and others surrounded him.
"Master Qianyue, what should we do now?"
"Sir, I went to Fei Mansion before, and they agreed to support me, but why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?"
"Yes, now the entire Hou Mansion is surrounded by the left prime minister's soldiers and horses. What should we do?"
Questions were asked one after another, and when Bailiheng raised his hand, they all fell silent, waiting for his reply.
Speaking of which, these people had been entrenched in Hexi for many years, and it was the imperial court's constant indulgence that made them so incompetent and allowed Bailiheng's plan to proceed so smoothly.
Looking at everyone, Bailiheng said, "Now that the situation has come to an end, the reinforcements have not arrived, and you all have no strength to fight, so there is only one way."
"What method?"
"Turn hostility into friendship."
"This is impossible. We have come this far. No matter what, we are still going to die. We might as well fight out."
"Kill out, do you think these people can do anything? Not only will you die, but your family will also be affected. But if I surrender now, I will be grateful that you will be able to come back, and I will naturally give you a lighter sentence, not only for your necks." Your head may be saved, but your family will definitely be safe.”
"This...but I heard that Zuo Xiang Bailiheng is ruthless. How can you guarantee that he will let us go?"
"that is..."
Everyone was talking together, but Bailiheng pulled Qingyang Hou to one side.
"Master Hou, what do you think?"
"They are right to worry. Is there no other way?"
"At this point, this method is the best way to achieve both ends. Moreover, I also think about the Marquis."
"What do you mean by this?"
"I will propose going to negotiate with the Left Prime Minister later, and then the Marquis will go with me. No matter what the outcome is, since the Marquis has expressed his attitude, he will definitely be fine."
Having said that, Bailiheng emphasized, "Moreover, my relationship with the court is deeper than the Marquis imagined."
With these words, Qingyang Hou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He didn't say how much he trusted Bailiheng, but at this point, he had no other choice.
"Okay, then I'll go with you."
After all, Qingyang Hou had some say. He spoke up and went to negotiate in person, so everyone had no objection.
Bailiheng took Qingyanghou out of the mansion, but when Qingyanghou saw Shi Qinghuan, his heart was shocked.
She stood in the opponent's army, calm and composed, clearly...
Only then did he suddenly realize, "Master Qianyue, you..."
Before he finished speaking, cold light flashed across his face, and a long sword was already placed across his neck. The person holding the sword was Zhang Yue.
"You...you are in the same group."
"Of course we are in the same group."
"Qianyue, what benefits did the imperial court give you, and you actually helped them?"
"Um?"
Bailiheng smiled and said, "That's wrong. I didn't do anything for others. The Hexi incident was my purpose."
What?
Qingyang Hou looked down at Bailiheng, his face full of surprise.
When Fang Zhiheng saw this, he stopped pretending, got off his horse and came to Bailiheng.
"Bailiheng, have you had enough of your performance? It's so late. Let's finish up early and get some rest!"
"Bailiheng?"
Only then did Qingyang Hou confirm his suspicion.
"You are the left prime minister!"
