In the end, desire triumphed over reason.
According to their master's plan, the prince ascended the throne and became emperor.
Then their six ministers came to assist the government.
Just help and help, maybe it will be right.
It is not possible to become the emperor himself.
Just imagine, if Liu Lai becomes the emperor, what position can he hold as the steward of the Liu Mansion?
He is definitely an important minister beside His Majesty.
Even if you can't be a crown prince, you can at least be a general eunuch, right?
One step up.
At that time, if you want rights, you will have rights, and if you have money, you will have money.
Don't you just do whatever you want?
These are desires.
And rationally... Tong Sihai also felt that Zhao Ping was lying to him.
But how to cheat?
He is now a prisoner.
If Zhao Pingzhen is a loyal minister beside His Majesty, no matter what he does, he will not escape death.
Now he lets himself go.
And he was discussing some things with himself calmly or in a low voice.
In addition, Zhao Ping collected money from so many people.
This shows that he and His Majesty are not of the same mind.
Adding the two together, Tong Sihai finally chose to believe in Zhao Ping.
But he also kept an eye on it and said, "Mr. Zhao, we are here to stop and kill you. We have already made our original plan."
"I would like to ask sir, what are your plans next?"
"Kill Liu Dingbei."
Zhao Ping said: "No one else knows except you that I am Mr. Liu's."
"In their eyes, I still represent His Majesty and am the most loyal minister in the entire Dawei Dynasty."
"As General Zhenbei, Liu Dingbei will naturally not betray His Majesty."
"When I learned that I was being stopped and killed, I believed that Liu Dingbei would definitely come with manpower to rescue me."
"As long as he comes, I can trick him here and kill him with my own hands in front of you."
"After killing Liu Dingbei, I will send a message to General Shan and ask him to release Lord Liu."
"Most of the officials in the DPRK are now in prison. If Mr. Liu can come out early, with his identity and status, he will definitely be able to stabilize the situation."
"Even if he ascends the throne and becomes emperor, that's not a bad idea."
"As for future matters, we will follow Mr. Liu's arrangements."
"Is everything you said true?"
These words directly touched Tong Sihai's heart and made him excited.
Kill Liu Dingbei.
Or kill him in front of him.
Based on this alone, he should believe Zhao Ping.
He even secretly regretted having doubted Zhao Ping before.
"Absolutely true."
Zhao Ping patted his chest and promised: "But for the time being, I can only wrong you one or two more times."
"There are many people in Liu Dingbei's belt. A head-on conflict will probably be a bloody battle."
"Even if we can win in the end, it will be difficult to kill Liu Dingbei at this time."
"So I can only tie you up first. When I lead Liu Dingbei to this house and there are no outsiders to disturb me, we can then get rid of him. What do you think?"
"Okay, okay, this is a great plan."
Tong Sihai patted his thigh and cheered.
I no longer doubt Zhao Ping.
He was even fantasizing about what would happen after killing Liu Dingbei.
Zhao Ping picked up the rope thrown on the ground, tied up Tong Sihai again, made him kneel on the ground, and then took Li Hu out.
Outside, Liu Dingbei has arrived.
Panting and dusty.
It's obvious that he cares about Zhao Ping very much.
Even though the person who greeted him repeatedly assured that Zhao Ping was fine, Liu Dingbei was still worried and wanted to see Zhao Ping with his own eyes.
No, Zhao Ping is here.
"Are you really okay?"
Liu Dingbei asked.
"Do you hope something happens to me?"
Zhao Ping asked rhetorically.
"no……"
Liu Dingbei choked, "Mr. Zhao, how did you do it?"
"The other party has more than a thousand people."
"How many people did you bring?"
"How did you win?"
Liu Dingbei asked himself, faced with such a situation, even if he personally led the team, he had no chance of winning.
There wasn't even a chance to escape.
But what about Zhao Ping?
He actually won.
Nearly a thousand people were killed, hundreds were seriously injured, and dozens of prisoners were taken.
It can be said that the whole group of people was wiped out directly.
This record is enough to brag about for a lifetime.
"Now is not the time to talk about that. Let me tell you something."
Zhao Ping whispered a few words in Liu Dingbei's ear.
Liu Dingbei's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this, and his expression became very strange.
Is this a plan?
Why do I feel like my uncle is going to murder my father-in-law?
But Liu Dingbei was loyal to His Majesty.
Zhao Ping holds Shang Fang's sword in his hand, which represents His Majesty.
It's his uncle again.
Liu Dingbei finally agreed to cooperate.
Then someone ran over with a blood bag.
The blood bag uses pig bladder.
Half a bag of pig blood was filled inside, and the upper mouth was tied with two ropes, which happened to hang around Liu Dingbei's neck.
Hiding it in the chest, nothing can be seen from the outside.
He asked Li Hu to check carefully, and even took out a dagger to mark it himself, so as not to stab Liu Dingbei deeply and hurt Liu Dingbei.
Fortunately, there was a pig butcher nearby, otherwise, it would be difficult to gather so many things in the middle of the night.
"Will this work?"
Liu Dingbei said suspiciously: "We have already controlled Tong Sihai. Let's go straight to the big one. I don't believe he won't do it."
"He is Liu Lai's housekeeper. The family depends on Liu Lai for food and clothing."
Zhao Ping said: "If Liu Lai is prosperous, his family will be prosperous."
"If Liu Lai dies, their family will also die."
"Based on large size alone, I'm afraid Tong Sihai won't say anything."
"As for searching, let's not even think about it."
"Old General Liu has been searching the Liu Mansion for a while, but has any strong evidence been found?"
"I think should not be."
"If we really got the evidence, I'm afraid you would have returned to the palace long ago, and you wouldn't have been so busy now that you hurried over to help when you heard that I was assassinated."
"So we can only be gentle and influence."
"Only when Tong Sihai feels that we are one of our own and can be trusted will he tell the truth."
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to your arrangements."
Liu Dingbei nodded.
He is an expert in marching and fighting.
No, he seems to be inferior to Zhao Ping when it comes to marching and fighting.
Not to mention resourcefulness.
Liu Dingbei finally discovered that compared with this uncle, he was really nothing.
He lags behind my uncle in every aspect.
Of course, he became increasingly satisfied with Zhao Ping.
When everything was ready, Zhao Ping took Liu Dingbei and Li Hu to the room where Tong Sihai was.
While walking, Zhao Ping said: "General Liu, don't worry, I really arrested Tong Sihai and interrogated him. He said he knew Liu Lai's secret, but he would only tell you one person. "
"That's why I asked you to come and listen."
"Old General Liu, please come inside."
"Huzi, how sharp are you? Didn't you see General Liu come in? Quickly move a chair for him and let him sit down."
Li Hu hurriedly moved a chair over.
Liu Dingbei took his seat, then looked at Tong Sihai and said coldly: "Tong Sihai, you actually want to see me?"
"Just in time, I want to see you too."
"Liu Lai has been arrested. This general is responsible for finding evidence that he colluded with other officials."
"Tell this general everything you know."
"If you dare to hide anything, I will kill you now."
"I……"
Tong Sihai opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Zhao Ping didn't teach this.
He could only look at Zhao Ping as if asking for help.
Zhao Ping also glared, "Tong Sihai, I hold Shang Fang's sword, and I represent His Majesty. If you dare not say anything, I will let Huzi serve you now."
"I……"
Tong Sihai was shocked again.
What about helping yourself as promised?
What about killing Liu Dingbei as promised?
Why the big change?
That’s not right either.
If Zhao Ping really wanted to do something to him, he would have done it long ago, and he wouldn't have waited until now.
Not to mention talking nonsense to myself.
But Li Hu moved.
He didn't know when a dagger appeared in his hand.
There was a hint of warmth in the yellow light reflected by the dim fire in the room.
Li Hu walked towards Tong Sihai step by step.
Tong Sihai was anxious.
But his hands and feet were tied, so he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
He could only fall to the ground, keep kicking his feet, bending over, trying to move out and away from the dagger.
"How dare you run?"
Li Hu sneered: "Then I'll break your hamstring first."
As he spoke, Li Hu bent down.
brush!
Li Hu waved the dagger.
What was broken was not the hamstring, but the rope tied around Tong Sihai's ankle.
Tong Sihai was stunned for a moment.
He looked at Zhao Ping in confusion and found that Zhao Ping was blinking at him.
And told him silently.
"Scream, scream."
He looked very anxious.
"ah!"
Tong Sihai understood and yelled very cooperatively.
"Hahaha."
Behind him, Liu Dingbei laughed.
He said proudly: "Tong Sihai, aren't you willing to say it?"
"Now I'm just picking off your hamstring. If you don't tell the truth, the next thing I'll cut off is your hamstring."
"Don't worry, this general will not let you die so easily..."
"go to hell."
Before Liu Dingbei could finish feeling proud, Li Hu shouted loudly.
Turn around sharply.
Like a hungry tiger pouncing on food, he rushed in front of Liu Dingbei with lightning speed.
puff!
The dagger in his hand stabbed Liu Dingbei right in the chest.
