"Master Li said that even if the emperor goes to arrest people, the Dou family will be in chaos first." He Rong bowed.
"What do you think? I want to hear your opinion." Li Yuanxian said.
"Wei Chen's opinion is that the Dou family assassinated the imperial envoy. The evidence is conclusive and he deserves to be punished. If we want to catch him, we must catch Dou Huaishan!" He Rongdao.
Li Yuanxian nodded, "But I'm afraid that I'll push this old fox into a panic. What if he really rebels?"
"Then congratulations to the emperor, the Dou family can be eliminated!"
Li Yuanxian was startled at first, and then quickly understood.
The old fox Dou Huaishan might still be able to get away with the crime of assassinating the imperial envoy, but once he really rebelled, it would be logical to eliminate the Dou family.
"So, what you mean is to force the Dou family to rebel?"
"Since Mr. Dou wants to rebel, why force him to rebel?" He Rong said, "It just disrupts his rhythm in advance. If he waits for the day when he really wants to rebel, then he must be very well prepared. , if the emperor doesn’t tell you how difficult it is to get rid of, the threat to the emperor will be even greater.”
Li Yuanxian nodded, "Did Li Qian tell you this, or did you think of it yourself?"
"Of course the ministers rely on Mr. Li for advice." He Rong said.
Li Yuanxian smiled and said, "You don't have to be modest. I think you are no worse than Li Qian. As long as you are talented, I will not bury you."
"However, I still have a question. What if this old fox Dou Huaishan doesn't resist?"
"Then the emperor can put him in a prison and interrogate him slowly. Of course, the premise is that he is captured without mercy." He Rong said.
"Will he be captured without hesitation?" Li Yuanxian smiled and shook his head, "If he was captured without mercy, he would not be Dou Hou. So, no matter what, he can't escape this time."
"Come here, arrest Dou Huaishan immediately!" Then he waved his hand.
…
A large number of soldiers and horses rushed to Dou Mansion.
Dou Mansion seemed quiet.
When the door of Dou Mansion was smashed open, what he saw was corpses all over the ground.
The officers and soldiers who came to arrest Dou Huaishan were also stunned.
Under a big tree in the backyard.
Dou Huaishan, covered in blood, sat there drinking wine.
Seeing those officers and soldiers, he smiled and said, "Are you here to arrest me?"
"That's right. I just killed all the servants in the mansion. I should be arrested for committing such a murder!"
He took a swig of wine.
Then he slammed the wine jar.
"But you are not worthy enough to arrest me!"
A raging fire also began to burn on him.
It turned out that his body had already been filled with fire oil.
"Emperor, don't you just want me to die? I will do what you wish for today!"
In the fire, he also let out his final roar.
Li Yuanxian stood up immediately after receiving the report.
"What? He burned himself to death?"
This result really surprised him.
"Are you sure that he is really Dou Huaishan?"
"It shouldn't be wrong." The subordinate said.
"What do you mean, I want to confirm it!" Li Yuanxian said calmly.
"The voice and demeanor are exactly the same as those of Dou Hou, but the person was burned quickly and there was no time to distinguish," the subordinate said.
"He Rong, what do you think?" Li Yuanxian looked at He Rong aside.
"It is impossible for Dou Huaishan to burn himself to death. Your Majesty, please quickly seal the city gate. The real Dou Huaishan may have escaped. We cannot allow him to escape back to Xizhou." He Rong said.
Li Yuanxian also raised his eyebrows immediately.
Indeed, he did not think that Dou Huaishan would burn him to death.
