Dou Huaishan was already on his way to the palace.
But the line moved slowly.
It can even be said to be very slow.
Dou Huaishan was sitting in the official sedan with his eyes closed, as if he was resting his mind or thinking about something.
A horse came from the direction of the Dou Family Courtyard. It was Dou Fu.
The team also stopped.
Dou Fu dismounted and came to the official sedan, "Sir, Prince Hemusi is ready and asked when he can go to see the emperor."
Dou Huaishan opened his eyes and asked through the sedan curtain, "Is he really okay?"
"Old slave, I've looked carefully and it's indeed fine." Dou Fu said.
"Let them wait for another hour. If they really have no problem after an hour, let them enter the palace, but there must not be too many people." Dou Huaishan said. .
"Old slave, I understand." Dou Fu finished his report and was about to leave.
Dou Huaishan suddenly stopped him, "Go back and deal with Gao Jun first. We can't keep this man any longer. Also, after He Muxi enters the palace, deal with all the Xiqiang people who stayed in other courtyards!"
Dou Fu was startled for a moment, then said yes, got on his horse and rode away.
The team was still moving slowly towards the palace.
Dou Huaishan closed his eyes again.
This plan is poisonous.
Even if those Xiqiang people did not have smallpox, they would be considered smallpox.
This forced him to kill those Xiqiang people.
Because if this matter is leaked, Dou Huaishan will be guilty of a serious crime.
I'm afraid even the Queen Mother will blame him.
After all, who is not afraid of smallpox?
His status in the government may be affected.
Therefore, no matter whether those Xiqiang people had smallpox or not, they could not be allowed to live.
Even Prince Hemuxi could not let him return to Xiqiang Kingdom alive.
After all, killing one or two people is killing, and killing a group is killing. Now that they have taken action, not one of those Xiqiang people can go back alive.
Of course, even if He Muxi was to die, he would have to wait until he entered the palace to meet the emperor.
He Muxi came to negotiate with the emperor on behalf of the Western Qiang Kingdom, and this mission must be completed.
This must be taken advantage of, after all, the conditions He Musi proposed would definitely anger the emperor.
In anger, the emperor killed all the Xiqiang envoys, which was reasonable.
Weren't the last batch of envoys killed by the emperor?
Therefore, it was not difficult at all to convince King Qiang that all this was done by the emperor.
Now he just hopes that He Muxi will not have any problems and can enter the palace for negotiations smoothly.
As for the subsequent impact, it is no longer important.
As long as the foundation of their Dou family remains unchanged, no matter how the situation changes, their Dou family will still be the Dou family.
But was all this what he had thought and planned before?
After thinking for a long time, he also opened his eyes.
"Li Qian, you are a talented person who can force me to take this step. You have made me doubtful now. Were you really burned to death?"
Dou Fu returned to the Hou Mansion.
Go straight to Gao Jun's room.
"Mr. Gao, are you there?" He knocked on the door first.
But there was no response from inside.
He frowned and pushed the door open.
The room was empty.
The breakfast was still on the table, but it was already cold.
Dou Fu glanced at the breakfast meal and his eyebrows twitched.
Things seemed to be a little beyond his expectation, or rather beyond the Marquis's expectations.
Gao Jun actually ran away.
As for how Gao Jun escaped, he didn't have time to think about it now.
He immediately summoned a group of guards and ordered them to kill Gao Jun without mercy.
He headed towards the Dou family courtyard.
at the same time.
Gao Jun climbed up from the vat of night incense.
It really stinks to death.
He panted, desperately breathing in the fresh air outside.
"Master Jun, it's not a good time to stay here for a long time. Let's leave quickly. People from the Dou family are likely to come after us." Zeng Xing said from the side.
"Can't you let me take a breath first? I'm almost suffocating inside, you know? I have never suffered this kind of crime before."
After escaping, Gao Jun felt relaxed, and the young master's temper also improved.
"Master Jun, if not, could you have escaped?" Zeng Xing just said.
"Okay, I won't talk about this anymore. When did you sneak into the Dou family? And where is Gao Peng now?" Gao Jun said.
He really couldn't understand that Gao Peng was really so kind that he would send Zeng Xing to rescue him. You know, he went to the Dou family to tell the truth.
It's just this secret that almost cost him his life.
However, this is all Li Qi'an and Gao Peng's fault. They want to go against the Dou family, so does he?
Hasn't Li Qian been burned to death? This is the fate of going against the Dou family.
"Master Jun, if you keep asking this question, are you really not afraid of the Dou family's pursuers?" Zeng Xing said.
At this time, there was a sound of horse hooves.
Gao Jun was also shocked.
He quickly got up from the ground.
"Run, run away!"
Then he ran away on his own.
Zeng Xing just stood there without moving, with a sneer on his lips. If Mr. Li hadn't specifically told him, he really didn't want to rescue this person.
