Chapter 7: The picture is poor
"Qi Cheng...!"
"What kind of medicine is this old guy selling in his gourd?"
Qin Yu, with a confused look on his face, slowly put down his hand and collected the booklet handed to him yesterday.
The content of the book is also very simple. It is to hope that Qin Yu will send Hua Xiong to the Hexi front line to resist the invasion of Western Chu.
The reason sounds quite good. It is a pity for a general like Hua Xiong to stay in Dragon City.
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, a warm voice suddenly sounded in Qin Yu's ears.
Li Ru, who was wearing a long white gown, was bending down to salute him.
"Wenyou!?"
"When did you arrive at Dragon City!"
After Qin Yu saw clearly that it was Li Ru, he couldn't help but asked in surprise.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I arrived at Longcheng at noon today. The reason why I came to see you now is because I stayed in the city for a while!"
Li Ru has a clear voice and a jade-like face. Just looking at this appearance, it is really difficult to equate him with the insidious and cunning Li Ru in history.
"Wenyou, you're here just in time."
"Think about this for me."
After Qin Yu nodded slightly, he brought the topic back to the topic.
After he handed the fold in his hand to Li Ru, he sat back on the throne with anticipation.
He believed that Li Ru, who was good at playing tricks, could definitely tell something fishy from this letter.
Li Ru respectfully took the letter written by Qi Cheng to Qin Yu from Qin Yu's hand and glanced at it briefly.
Then his face became a little gloomy, and a cold sneer appeared on his face unconsciously.
"Wenyou, is there something wrong?"
Seeing Li Ru's expression, Qin Yu couldn't help but asked worriedly.
"Your Majesty, this is an obvious plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
Li Ru gently closed the fold, and then slowly answered Qin Yu.
"Tune the tiger away from the mountain?!"
After Qin Yu heard this answer, his expression kept changing.
Ever since the Duanmu family was slaughtered, Qin Yu felt that he was the only one in Dragon City and no one dared to resist him.
But now what Li Ru said made Qin Yu feel a little cold sweat on his back.
He had always looked down on the literati of the Qin Dynasty, which led him to look down on Qi Cheng from the bottom of his heart. However, he ignored an important factor.
Can Qi Cheng be a simple character after being at odds with such a tyrannical Duanmu Sui'an for so many years?
"Then what should we do now?"
Qin Yu asked Li Ru with a sullen face.
"Arrest Qi Cheng, use his family as a hostage, and torture him to find out who is instigating him?"
Li Ru slowly shook his feather fan, and two cold gleams bloomed in his fox-like slender eyes.
"That's right, let's control him first!"
Qin Yu looked gloomy at this time and kept tapping his fingers on the table.
…………
"Tap, tap, tap!"
The sound of rapid horse hooves echoed throughout the flat and wide Longcheng Avenue.
Five hundred Xiliang cavalry, led by Hua Xiong, galloped towards Qi Cheng's mansion.
The sharp Xiliang scimitars erupted with a cold light on the waists of each knight.
A sense of blood spread among this team.
"Commander, the gate of Qi Mansion is closed!"
A Xiliang knight reported back to the stern-faced Hua Xiong in a deep voice.
"Smash it open!"
Hua Xiong, who was holding a long sword in his hand, had no expression on his face. He did not have any psychological burden on him when he ransacked his house and exterminated his family.
"promise!"
After the Xiliang knight responded in a deep voice, he quickly walked towards the gate of Qi Mansion.
"Bang! Bang!"
Under the knight's repeated attacks, the red alder door of Qi Mansion collapsed to the ground.
"Go in and arrest people!"
"If there is resistance, kill them on the spot!"
Hua Xiong looked grim, and after saying a few words, he waved the knights behind him to rush into the Qi Mansion.
As Qin Cheng's prime minister, his residence naturally occupies a very large area.
Hundreds of exquisitely decorated houses are located in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"boom!"
The Xiliang knight acted rudely, kicking open the doors of each room one by one.
The decoration inside the room is also extremely elegant, but there is no one around.
"Commander, there is no one in Qi Mansion!"
A Xiliang knight with a resolute face came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and quickly ran to Hua Xiong's side, and then reported to him the situation in the mansion.
"How can it be!"
After hearing these words, Hua Xiong's expression changed.
Last night, a little Huangmen from the palace ran to the Northern Army camp and announced Qin Yu's order.
After receiving the order, he did not say anything. Instead, he followed Qin Yu's order and started doing things as usual today. But now, how could the people in Qi Mansion suddenly disappear?
"You guys come with me!"
Hua Xiong casually ordered, and after a few Xiliang knights, he personally entered Qi Cheng's mansion.
After half a stick of incense, Hua Xiong walked out of the mansion with a gloomy look on his face.
…………
"When you go back, thank Brother Qin for me!"
At this time, Qi Cheng, who was hundreds of miles away from Dragon City, was thanking a man wearing an iron eagle mask.
"Sir, I will inform our deputy commander."
After the man wearing the iron eagle mask finished speaking, he disappeared in front of Qi Cheng.
"Master, if someone from Heibingtai hadn't reported the news in advance this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Qi Tong, who is the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, said happily in the ear of Qi Cheng, who was smiling.
"yes!"
"I didn't expect that this kid Qin Yu would be so decisive."
Qi Cheng also had a sad look on his face at this time.
Before he went into that trap, he and Qin Cang, the deputy commander of Black Ice Platform, finalized a killing plan against Qin Yu.
After moving the tiger Hua Xiong away from Qin Yu, the people from Heibingtai assassinated Qin Yu.
After that, he could use his prestige as prime minister for many years to bring the fifth prince Qin Xi to the throne.
"Master, let's go there now!"
Qi Tong bowed slightly and asked Qi Cheng about his next trip.
"Go to Fenyang Mansion and join the Fifth Prince!"
After Qi Cheng finished speaking, he sat in the carriage.
Fenyang Mansion is the fiefdom of the fifth prince Qin Xi, and is also the location of the headquarters of Daqin Black Ice Platform.
Among the six prefectures of the Qin Dynasty, Hedong is famous for its wealth, while Fenyang is famous for its rich production of knights.
