Dou Mansion in the capital.
"Master, the envoy sent by our Dou family was burned to death by King Qiang!"
The old servant Dou Lu knelt in front of Dou Huaishan and said, "Not only did King Qiang not kill Li Qian, he also gave him 500 cavalry to dispatch. Master, our plan to kill him has failed!"
Dou Huaishan glanced at him and said, "Get up, this is none of your business."
Dou Lu and Dou Fu were the two old servants who stayed with him the longest and most loyally.
Now, only one of the two most loyal and caring old servants is left.
He looked at Dou Lu and sighed, "If you make one wrong step, you will make mistakes every step of the way!"
"What's wrong, Master?" Dou Lu raised his head and said through gritted teeth, "If it's wrong, it's also Li Qian's fault. This person is really too cunning!"
"It's not that he is cunning, but that he really needs to be more skilled. He also used fake smallpox to kill our Dou family envoys. It's a double strategy. How many people can use it as skillfully as him?" Dou Huaishan Road.
"King Qiang should not believe him." Doulu still gritted his teeth, "Master, now that he has been reused by King Qiang, it will be difficult for us to kill him again."
"Since we can't kill him, we won't kill him," Dou Huaishan said.
"Don't kill him? Why?" Dou Lu was startled, "If he returns to Dacheng, he will be the biggest threat to our Dou family!"
"Why did King Qiang reuse him?" Dou Huaishan simply asked.
"Because he said he could cure smallpox, King Qiang believed him and gave him five hundred cavalry for him to dispatch." Dou Lu said, "How can a disease like smallpox be cured? King Qiang is also crazy to believe him." if."
Dou Huaishan pondered, "Is it true that smallpox cannot be cured?"
"Sir, I have never heard that smallpox can be cured. Either you will die of the disease, or you will be left with pockmarks on your face if you die, but there are really very few people who can survive." Dou Lu said.
"So, Li Qian found the weakness of the Western Qiang Kingdom from the beginning. As long as he can really cure smallpox, he will become the hero of the Western Qiang Kingdom, and our Dou family's many years of hard work on the Western Qiang Kingdom will also be It’s all in vain,” Dou Huaishan said.
"But the old slave doesn't believe that he can really cure smallpox." Dou Lu said.
"Since he dared to raise it with King Qiang, he may not have no solution. Besides, this is a move he has been preparing for a long time. How could he not be sure about it?" Dou Huaishan said.
"But what he did was bring soap to the Western Qiang country, and asked the Western Qiang people to bathe frequently and pay attention to hygiene. It was exactly the same as what he did at the door of our Dou Mansion." Dou Lu said.
Dou Huaishan opened his mouth. He rarely lost his composure, and his face twitched several times.
"Master, so he can't cure smallpox at all, and he is just deceiving King Qiang." Dou Lu continued.
"It is true that smallpox cannot be cured, but it can be prevented. His method is not wrong. Not only can the Xiqiang people prevent smallpox, but they can also sell his soap, killing two birds with one stone." Dou Huaishan said.
"Do you really think King Qiang is a fool? King Qiang has taken a lot of benefits from our Dou family over the years, and his appetite has been enlarged. By killing our Dou family envoy, he is also telling us that the conditions we gave him before have been met. I can’t stand him anymore.”
Dou Lu was stunned for a moment, "In other words, his belief in Li Qian is equivalent to renegotiating terms with us?"
Dou Huaishan said, "Does he trust Li Qian when he sends five hundred cavalry to Li Qian? Don't underestimate King Qiang."
Dou Lu also immediately thought of something, "In other words, we still have a chance to kill Li Qian in Xiqiang Kingdom?"
"A person who can't be killed once, twice, or three times, can we kill him again?" Dou Huaishan sighed, "No one will wait for us to kill him without fighting back. .”
"But how can Li Qian's people in the Western Qiang Kingdom fight back against us?" Dou Lu couldn't help but ask.
"To fight back, he doesn't have to fight back personally, it can also be the emperor!" Dou Huaishan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It is precisely because he is in the Western Qiang Kingdom that it will create a false impression for us. Our Dou family can no longer focus on him. If a person like this fights back, it will definitely be fatal!"
"So the real critical moment for the Dou family has arrived!"
