"Young Master, once Master Hou's big plan is achieved, the Dou family will only be more prosperous than before. How can you say that Master Hou is destroying the Dou family?" Dou Lu staggered and said. .five
"Li Qi'an's life will only hinder Mr. Hou's plan. If you really care about the Dou family, you should get rid of him instead of listening to him!"
"What kind of bullshit plan is that old guy? It's sending everyone in the Dou family to the guillotine!" Dou Zhun said, "The Dou family already enjoys glory and wealth. Isn't it good to enjoy it in peace and contentment? You have to touch those things. Wrong thinking."
Dou Lu spit out a mouthful of blood, "Young master, don't you understand? The emperor can no longer tolerate our Dou family, and the Marquis has to make a choice."
"If that old guy wasn't arrogant and arrogant, how could the emperor not tolerate him? After all, he has no ambition and would not have reached this point!" Dou Zhun said.
Dou Lu vomited a large mouthful of blood again, could no longer hold on, and half-knelt on the ground.
"Young Master, you actually believe in an outsider and don't even believe in your own father."
Then he pointed at Li Qian with the last of his strength, "Some people said you were a devil before. I didn't believe it, but now I believe it. You are really a devil!"
After saying this, he lowered his hand and became motionless.
Dou Zhun stepped forward and breathed, "Master Li, he is dead!"
"Yeah." Li Qian nodded, "He was so angry with you."
Dou Zhun was startled, scratched his head and said, "Master Li, he obviously poisoned himself to death. How can you say he was made angry by me?"
"Originally, he wasn't going to die so soon, but he would have died if you were so angry." Li Qian said.
Dou Zhun smiled sheepishly, "Master Li, you really can't blame me. What I said is true. He was too stupid and poisoned himself."
Li Qi'an glanced at Dou Lu's still body, "Do you really think he is stupid?"
"Isn't it?" Dou Zhun was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you just call him stupid?"
"I said he was stupid to provoke him. Although his biggest goal is to poison me, even if he can't poison me, he can still achieve other goals." Li Qian said.
"What purpose can be achieved?" Dou Zhun couldn't help but ask.
"Today in Xishi, will your second brother really punish those in the Dou family severely?" Li Qian just asked.
"Looking at that stance, it should be true. I heard that when my second brother went out, he once said that public anger cannot turn into a civil uprising. He should severely punish those in the Dou family." Dou Zhun said.
"Public anger cannot turn into a popular uprising. To be able to say such things, it seems that your second brother really understands the importance of people's hearts." Li Qian smiled.
"Master Li, you just said that Dou Lu had other purposes. Everyone else is dead. What purpose does he have?" Dou Zhun was still curious about the question just now.
"Although Dou Lu failed to poison me, he died in the Xizhou Army's barracks. What do you think this means?" Li Qian said.
Dou Zhun thought for a moment, then his face changed slightly, "He wanted to use his death to make the Dou family hate my second brother even more, and even let those people use this as an excuse to take away my second brother's military power. "
Li Qian nodded, "It's good to make progress. This is another reason why Dou Lu is willing to trade his life for his life. He is also telling you, Dou Huaishan, that your two sons are no longer reliable."
"Humph, then he is still stupid. Does he think his life is that valuable? My second brother's military power can be taken away just by taking it." Dou Zhun snorted coldly, "Even if that old guy knows that we are unreliable, So what?"
"What if your father doesn't return to Xizhou?" Li Qian asked.
Dou Zhun was startled for a moment, and then said immediately, "That doesn't matter. Anyway, the Xizhou Army is in the hands of my second brother. We can look for another opportunity."
"Then are you sure your second brother will go against your father?" Li Qian asked with a smile.
"Master Li, you have seen what my second brother has done. He will not support that old guy." Dou Zhun said quickly.
"I can see that your second brother is a very independent person, but he may not really be on our side, so we still have to force him." Li Qian said.
"Force it? How?" Dou Zhun asked doubtfully.
"Hang Dou Lu's body on the gate of the military camp and let them know that this is the consequences of trespassing in the military camp here!"
"Since Dou Lu wants to make the Dou family angry, then let's make the Dou family angry completely!"
