Two graves, one handful of earth.
Lin Ye knelt there, filling the new grave with soil.
As a general, he would not kneel, but as a successor, how could he not kneel.
Emperor Jade knelt down and placed a handful of earth on Master Qian's grave, then patted it gently.
"I didn't expect him to die."
Lin Ye turned his head and looked at the emperor.
"I know him."
The emperor said: "More than ten years ago, I received several secret reports about Tuoba Lie. I know who they are and what their intentions are, so I asked Lu Gang to investigate."
"I visited Yunzhou the year before last, but didn't enter Yunzhou City. Do you still remember?"
Lin Ye replied: "Remember."
The emperor said: "I not only saw you, but also him."
There was a hint of shock in Lin Ye's eyes.
The Emperor said: "Many of the things he did later were all done by asking him for help."
The shock in Lin Ye's eyes became even greater.
He could guess the identity of Master Qian, and he could also understand the affection of Master Qian in taking care of him, because that was the care that master gave to his disciple.
But he didn't expect that Master Qian had started to contact the emperor more than ten years ago.
"He should have watched me solve Tuoba Lie's matter."
The emperor sighed softly, turned around and ordered someone to fetch a pot of wine.
The emperor spilled wine in front of the grave.
"I will come again. Don't leave in a hurry. You must leave clearly and steadily. When I come again, I will give you an explanation."
After saying this, the emperor stood up and said: "I still need someone to find out about Ning Weimo's disappearance. Please stay with him for a while. I will go back first."
Lin Ye leaned over to salute and returned the favor as a family member.
The entourage followed the emperor, and only Lin Ye was left kneeling in front of the two tombs.
Not far behind Lin Ye, Zinai, Tuoba Yunxi, and Miss Xiaohe did not leave.
The three of them stood looking at Lin Ye, each of their eyes filled with distress.
At this moment, a black shadow swept over from a distance and arrived at Lin Ye's side in an instant.
Zinai was about to take action when Tuoba Yunxi pulled him back.
The person who came was Sui Qingqu.
He landed next to Lin Ye, holding five human heads still bleeding.
He silently placed the heads one by one in front of the graves of Master Qian and Salang, took two steps back, knelt down, and kowtowed.
Then he stood up without saying a word from beginning to end.
These five heads are not enough.
He will continue to search and search. Since Tuoba Lie has arranged everything in Yangzi City, there must be a lot of damn people.
Sui Qing turned around and left.
Lin Ye glanced back, and Sui Qingqu's figure disappeared quickly.
Lin Ye looked at Zinai again and said, "Take my aunt and Miss Xiaohe home to rest. I'll sit here for a while and go home before dark."
Zina nodded: "Okay."
She didn't say I'll stay with you, even if that's what she thought.
The three women also left. Lin Ye slowly exhaled and sat down between the two adjacent graves. He placed his left hand on Master Qian's grave and his right hand on Salang's grave.
"You are always like this. Do you all think that I should be the one to do this?"
"But I... don't fucking want to do it, never have."
With a bang, the wine bottle in Lin Ye's hand broke.
"Do I live just to send you away one by one? Just because you need someone like me to accompany you at your grave?"
"If it were the other way around, I'd be the one who knows everything. I'd fight my best and you would send me away. I should feel better."
He patted his hands on the two graves.
"Revenge, revenge, revenge... From the beginning to the end, I only know these two words, and then, the number of things and people who need revenge keeps increasing."
He leaned back and lay between the two tombs, watching the floating clouds in the sky.
"I don't want to say anything more."
He closed his eyes.
Just lie here, lying quietly, not talking, until dark.
When the sun was about to set, Lin Ye sat up, exhaled a long breath and said, "Let's take the last journey here."
Then he stood up and strode towards the gate of Yangzicheng City.
Two hours later, the palace.
This was once the palace of King Guzhu. After Guzhu surrendered, Emperor Dayu came here again, so it naturally became the emperor's palace.
The emperor renamed this place Yangzi Palace, which has no special significance.
Gu Xiujin heard footsteps outside the door and immediately went to the door to wait.
An imperial guard came to the door and leaned over and said: "Eunuch Gu, there is news from outside that the general is taking people overnight."
Gu Xiujin nodded: "I understand."
He turned around and returned to the house. The emperor stood in front of the Lone Bamboo map and looked at it, wearing a piece of clothing and standing with his hands behind his back.
"saint."
Gu Xiujin said in a very soft voice: "General, he..."
The emperor said without looking back: "No matter what the general does these days, there is no need to report it. I won't ask. If the general sends someone, then let me know."
Gu Xiujin leaned over and said, "I will order you to go down now."
The Emperor said: "The Guzhu people want to give me a blow, so I will ask the general to tell them that they are very courageous, so let's cut them out and see how big their courage is."
At the same time, Liu Mansion.
Lin Ye led the troops in, ignored the frightened people, and walked straight into the main hall.
Pang Panghai waved, and two soldiers brought a chair over and placed it in the middle of the main hall.
After Lin Ye sat down, he glanced at the people who all turned pale.
They probably didn't expect that the Liu family would be the first to be unlucky today since they had just made a large donation a few days ago.
Old Master Liu asked tremblingly: "General, this... late night visit, what's the important matter?"
Lin Ye glanced at him: "How old are you?"
Old Master Liu quickly replied: "Back to General, I am seventy-three years old this year."
Lin Ye hummed and asked, "How many sons do you have? How many grandsons do you have?"
Old Master Liu was startled and his face turned even paler.
He knelt down with a plop and said: "The Liu family has never done anything disobedient. They are loyal to Dayu. General, please be aware of everything..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Ye.
Lin Ye said in a cold tone: "I have talked with Mr. Ning Weimo Ning. You all feel that he has conflicts with me. You all feel that he will help you and stand on your side if he takes advantage."
"I don't want to explain anything more. I just want to tell you that Mr. Ning has told me many things. He also said that if the major families in Lone Bamboo collude with the Loufan people or even Dayu's treasonous ministers, Liu Home comes first.”
Lin Ye looked at Old Master Liu: "I asked you how many sons and grandsons you have. Are you afraid? Do you think I will use them to threaten you and make you give away the white-haired man to the black-haired man?"
Before Old Master Liu could speak, Lin Ye continued: "It won't be like this."
Before Old Master Liu could breathe a sigh of relief, he continued: "I just sent my elders away, and you, the Liu family, will accompany me."
He pointed at Old Master Liu.
In front of Pang Dahai, under the horrified eyes of everyone, he cut off Old Master Liu's head with a knife without hesitation.
The old corpse fell to the ground, and its head rolled far away.
Lin Ye asked: "Who is his eldest son?"
Liu Yingxun looked at Lin Ye. His eyes were blood-red, filled with sadness and anger. Those eyes seemed to be able to eat people.
Does Lin Ye care?
He is the one who can eat people now.
"You can cry."
Lin Ye said.
Liu Yingxun looked at Lin Ye and shouted: "Even if you are a general, why can you kill people indiscriminately and ignore Dayu's national laws! I will sue you before the emperor!"
Lin Ye nodded: "Yes, but you can't go, let your son go."
He asked: "Who is Liu Yingxun's eldest son?"
A man who looked about thirty years old suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of fear.
His name is Liu Zheng, and he is the eldest son and grandson of the Liu family.
Some soldiers came over and brought Liu Zheng over to Lin Ye.
Lin Ye said: "I will let you out now. You can complain before the emperor. When you come back, see your father off."
Pang Panghai raised his sword and lowered it, and everyone exclaimed.
Liu Yingxun's head was also chopped off.
Lin Ye didn't look at the two corpses, nor at the eldest son and grandson who was trembling with fear.
He asked: "Who is Liu Tong's second son?"
Liu Tong was the old Master Liu who had just been beheaded by Pang Panghai.
Liu Tong's second son was so frightened that he moved back subconsciously, kneeling there and moving back.
Lin Yewen: "Now you are the highest in the Liu family in terms of seniority, so you are the third."
Liu Tong knelt and kowtowed: "General, I admit it, I admit it. Before the general came, or to be precise, before the Loufan people came, Tuoba Lie did send someone to my house."
Lin Ye raised his hand to signal Liu Tong's second son, Liu Yingning, not to say anything further, and then he looked at Liu Zheng: "Your second uncle is about to talk about business. Now you have to make a choice. Should you continue talking, or should your second uncle talk? "
Liu Zheng looked at Lin Ye blankly, his eyes wandering, as if he was stupid.
Lin Ye said: "Then your second uncle said, I just promised you to complain before the emperor. I gave you the opportunity, but you didn't take it yourself."
He waved his hand.
When Pang Panghai went up, the third knife fell, and the eldest son and grandson of the Liu family also fell in a pool of blood.
Lin Ye looked at Liu Yingning again: "You can continue talking now. The eldest son's room is gone, and you are now the serious head of the family."
Liu Yingning knelt there and tremblingly told everything that Tuoba Lie had sent people to contact them a few years ago.
This matter cannot be explained clearly in a few words. He recalled it while talking, fearing that he would miss anything.
Lin Ye sat there and listened, his face always so cold.
After half an hour, Liu Yingning roughly explained everything.
The general meaning is that the Liu family will pretend to be submissive and take the lead in showing loyalty after the emperor's army arrives in Guzhu.
Don't let the emperor have any doubts. After the army surrounds Guzhu, the Liu family waits for the signal before doing anything.
After all, the walls of Yangzi City are tall and strong, so when it comes time to besiege Yangzi City, the Liu family needs to find a way to coordinate internally and externally.
Lin Ye nodded after listening: "Master Ning said that those who are obedient may not be truly obedient, and those who are resistant may not really dare to rebel."
He looked at Liu Yingning: "I will send someone to take you to the palace early tomorrow morning. If your Majesty is interested, he will ask you personally."
He said: "Besides, His Majesty will be very busy starting tomorrow and will meet many people, so there is no need to go to each family, just one per family."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out.
Wu Lingwei stepped forward and started to chop people.
Half an hour later, in the huge Liu family, Liu Yingning was the only one who was limp and carried out by Wu Lingwei. In the courtyard of the Liu family, blood flowed like a river.
Lin Ye got on the car: "Leave some people to raid the Liu family, let's go to the next one."
He had never planned to do this, but someone wanted to force him to become a murderous demon.
