The subordinate's eyes widened immediately, "The Marquis is talking about the second young master?"
"Dou Hui has won the hearts of the Xizhou Army. It is not difficult to grasp the whereabouts of the Xizhou Army. In addition to him, Dou Hai should also be indispensable." Dou Huaishan sighed, "I once asked Dou Hai to pretend to be me in Xizhou. He also You can also come to Beijing and pretend to be me. With the two of them, it won’t be surprising that Li Qi’an can get the leader’s head.”
"Why? How come everyone, including the eldest young master, is on Li Qian's side now?" The subordinate said through gritted teeth.
He is a general in the Hou Mansion, his name is Dou Yong, and he has been following Dou Huaishan. Like Dou Fu and Dou Lu, he is extremely loyal to Dou Huaishan.
Now that even the eldest young master had betrayed the Marquis, he was not only feeling incredible but also unhappy.
What kind of magical power does Li Qian have that makes all the Hou Ye's sons turn against each other?
"This is what I have to admire about Li Qian. From Dou Zhun, to Dou Hui, and then to Dou Hai, he really has a good way of controlling people's hearts!" Dou Huaishan looked up to the sky and sighed.
"However, this is also because I have been too comfortable and ignored them over the years, causing their ideas to deviate from my own. Otherwise, they would not be used by Li Qi'an. So the final reason lies with me. ah."
"Master Marquis, no matter what, if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. I will protect you even to the death!" Dou Yong said.
The Marquis seemed very depressed today, and he was also a little worried.
"Don't worry, I'm not as fragile as you think. I'm just introspecting. Only with enough introspection can I wake up. Only when I wake up can I see the opportunity!" Dou Huaishan looked at the tunnel entrance again.
"Your Highness, it's almost dawn, and Dou Huaishan doesn't seem to have chosen to break out." Xiao Shunzi couldn't help but say.
It turned out that the prince led nearly half of the troops and did not leave, but lurked in the dark, waiting for Dou Huaishan to break out and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.
But the night had passed, and there was no sign of a breakout, which made the prince frown deeply.
"This old fox, Dou Huaishan, looks like he would rather be trapped to death than fight hard."
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Xiao Shunzi asked.
The prince glanced at the sky.
"I don't have time to waste time with him anymore. Since he plans to defend to the end, let him defend to the end."
"Send the order, go to Prince Jing's Mansion!"
"Is Your Highness planning to get rid of Prince Jing directly?" Xiao Shunzi couldn't help but ask.
The prince sneered, "If we don't get rid of him now, are we going to wait for Zheng Guang to come back? I can't wait any longer!"
His original intention was to lure Dou Huaishan to break out of the encirclement, so that he could eliminate Dou Huaishan in one fell swoop and then eradicate Prince Jing. Now it seemed that since Dou Huaishan was not fooled, there was no point in waiting any longer.
"But what if Dou Huaishan suddenly breaks out after we leave and lets him escape?" Xiao Shunzi said.
"Where can he escape to?" the prince said, "He only has a few Xizhou troops in his hands. Even if he can break out and suffer heavy losses, he can't escape from the capital!"
The reason why he stayed overnight was to be on the safe side. Since Dou Huaishan was not fooled, there was no need for him to waste any more time. As he said, even if Dou Huaishan broke through, he would not be able to escape from the capital.
"However, the one who makes Gu the most worried is He Rong!" The prince continued, "It stands to reason that he should have led other troops to join Gu long ago, but the tens of thousands of other troops have not yet been seen. He has a very good personal relationship with Li Qi'an, and I am worried that these tens of thousands of troops will be used by Li Qi'an."
As he said that, he also frowned deeply. Although the situation was favorable to him now, there were still some hard bones to crack.
"Your Highness, don't forget that there are still those Xizhou troops who haven't shown up." Xiao Shunzi said.
"So I need to get rid of Prince Jing as quickly as possible. If I don't get rid of Prince Jing, it will be even more difficult for me to feel at ease!" the prince said.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
Hou Mansion.
"Master Marquis, the prince seems to have really left." Dou Yong came to Dou Huaishan to report.
Although the Hou Mansion is besieged, it is still okay to send a few people to inquire about the situation outside the house.
Yesterday, he specially sent someone to inquire about the prince's situation.
As the Marquis expected, the prince just pretended to leave, but today he really left.
But he didn't understand where the prince was going with nearly 10,000 troops.
Dou Huaishan seemed to be in good spirits, indicating that he slept well last night.
"The prince will never come back!"
