Dou Hui raised his head and said, "It is not difficult to deal with Li Qian, but after we deal with him, how will we explain it to the people of Xizhou? The memorandum was issued in his name, and it might even alarm the cavalry of the Western Qiang Kingdom."
"I mean quietly, just don't let anyone know. Even you have told me that he is very dangerous. Since he is unwilling to cooperate with us, keeping him will always be a disaster." Dou Huaishan said, "If he is dead, you can find him. A substitute!"
"Looking for a substitute?"
"Yes, this is safer and easier for us to control."
"But even so, I'm afraid I won't be able to hide it for long." Dou Hui said.
"When we can no longer hide it, the situation of our Dou family may be decided. I know that you have been showing mercy to Dou Zhun because of him, but you can no longer show mercy."
After taking the last sip of tea, Dou Huaishan put down the tea cup, stood up and patted Dou Hui on the shoulder, "We really don't have much time. The imperial army will come soon. We can't let any more trouble happen!"
…
"Master Li, what did that old man say to you when he came here? Why was he so angry that he even threw away the food and wine?"
Dou Zhun didn't dare to come to Li Qian until Dou Huaishan left the military camp.
"Your father has a very bad temper. He promised to have a good drink with me, but he ended up blowing me off without even taking a sip of wine." Li Qian said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if you open it, the old man's food and wine may be poisonous, so we'd better drink our own." Dou Zhun also quickly laid out the food and wine he brought.
Li Qian held the wine glass, "Don't there be 100,000 Xizhou troops in Xizhou? 50,000 Xizhou troops are guarding me here, and there are another 50,000. Did you see it?"
Dou Zhun was startled for a moment, "Master Li, when you say so, I really haven't seen any other Xizhou troops."
"Now the Dou family has openly started to rebel in my name, and the imperial army is coming soon. At this time, shouldn't it be time to assemble our troops and prepare to deal with the imperial army?" Li Qian took a sip of wine, "There are still fifty thousand Where is the Xizhou Army?"
Dou Zhun scratched his head and said, "Master Li, I don't know about this either. My second brother never told me anything. He only asked me to stay in the military camp with peace of mind."
"I'm afraid even your second brother doesn't know where those troops went. However, he may have already thought of it!" Li Qian drank the wine in the glass.
"Where did those troops go?" Dou Zhun couldn't help but ask while pouring the wine.
Li Qian smiled and said, "Do you think your father is any different from usual?"
"Master Li, you seem to have asked me this question, but that's it. Anyway, I'm just scared when I see him. I can't tell you anything else," Dou Zhun said.
"I'm afraid you will kill me soon." Li Qian said.
"Ah? Didn't he make you king? Why did he want to kill you again?" Dou Zhun was surprised.
"Because I'm disobedient. Of course, those who disobey must be dealt with." Li Qian said with a smile.
"Then what should we do now?" Dou Zhun asked anxiously.
After all, it is no better than before. Before, there were 10,000 Xizhou troops who listened to him, but now it is impossible to listen to him anymore. Besides, there are now 50,000 Xizhou troops guarding here.
"If he wants to kill, let him kill." Li Qian took a sip of wine calmly.
Dou Zhun was startled for a moment, and then stopped worrying. After all, he was Master Li, so there was nothing he could do.
"Master Li, tell me quickly, what good idea do you have?" He also rubbed his hands and asked.
"The key depends on your second brother. If he doesn't want me to die, I can't die. If he insists on my death, what else do you think I can do?" Li Qian said with a smile.
"Yes, the key is to look at my second brother. I'll go find him." Dou Zhun said and was about to go find Dou Hui.
"Your second brother has a sense of discretion." Li Qian said, "If you go to him at this time, you might only do bad things."
Dou Zhun stopped, "Master Li, do you believe my second brother?"
"He is different from your father!" Li Qian just laughed.
Dou Zhun sat back and said, "Master Li, you just said that the imperial army is coming soon, but if there are only 50,000 Xizhou troops, can Xizhou be defended? Also, where did the other 50,000 Xizhou troops go? ?」
"You ask me, who should I ask? I've been locked up here and haven't seen the light of day for a long time." Li Qian said with a smile, "Your father knows best, you should ask him."
"Master Li, I just think there seems to be something wrong with this. There is something wrong with the old guy's rebellion. The troops are not concentrated. Isn't it clear that the imperial court will come to destroy the Dou family?" Dou Zhun said.
