Chapter 182 Killing Zhao Siwan (3)

Chang Yanqing asked in a low voice: "Sir, isn't this Dong Zunhui? We were familiar with him in the past, why did he not give us face this time?! Is there another change in the court's handling of us?"

It turned out that Yingying's lawsuit against Zhao Siwan was known to everyone in the city, but because Yingying was right next to Guo Congyi's camp, Zhao Siwan was not convenient to send people to eliminate them directly, so he could only send a lot of people to keep an eye on him. Tonight, Guo Congyi held a banquet to welcome Wang Jun and ordered people to invite Zhao Siwan to the same place. However, as soon as Zhao Siwan and others arrived at the camp, they saw Dong Zunhui wrap Yingying with his cloak and ordered his personal soldiers to send him away. This clearly did not give Zhao Siwan face! The officialdom is to welcome and send off and maintain their face. Dong Zunhui's actions were clearly announcing that he and Zhao Siwan had made a decision. Dong Zunhui is now a favorite general under Wang Jun's tent. Is he doing this out of Wang Jun's authorization? Could it be that the court wants to remove the grinding and kill the donkey, and the cunning rabbit and the lackeys cook?!

Zhao Siwan frowned and saw that the left and right guards were all his own, and replied in a low voice: "There should be no change, otherwise Wang Jun should have quietly thought about the countermeasures for us tonight and would never have the mood to invite us to the banquet. Since we came, we should be at peace and be careful to deal with it."

Chang Yanqing nodded, and finally felt a little angry. He muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it just that he has snatched his military achievements from him? Why is Dong Zunhui so petty? Why would I take the trusted guard over and kill the little girl quietly?"

Zhao Siwan shook her head, "Everyone knows that the little girl is against us. If you send someone to kill her, we will seem guilty. Besides, we will offend Dong Zunhui completely, Wang Jun! I heard that Dong Zunhui made contributions one after another. Now he is Wang Jun's beloved general after all! Let's do this, I will test Wang Jun and Guo Congyi's attitude tonight. If they are willing to harm others, we will gather our confidants and raise the flag of the anti-bank!"

Everyone nodded and surrounded Zhao Siwan and headed into the camp. Zhao Siwan said harshly but smiled bitterly. Now Guo Congyi's troops have occupied the south gate of Jingzhao Prefecture and have confiscated the armor and weapons of Zhao Siwan's troops. Now everyone has only protective waist knives in their hands. If they rebel again, Wang Jun and Guo Congyi's army are not decorations!

When everyone came to the camp, they did not have the treatment of Wang Jun. Guo Congyi did not let his son come out to greet him. Everyone was also awakened and dismounted. Under the leadership of the guards in the camp, they went to Guo Congyi's tent to pay homage. The guards were not qualified to enter the table, and after they were all taken to the tent, Zhao Siwan and Chang Yanqing walked into the tent and paid a visit.

Zhao Siwan is now a fifth-rank official, Chang Yanqing is from the fifth-rank official, and Wang Jun and Guo Congyi are far higher than Zhao Siwan. Besides, they now represent the majesty of the Han Dynasty, so they sit still and receive this gift. Dong Zunhui, Wang Shenqi and others behind Wang Jun are just the identities of Du Yuhou. One is from the sixth-rank official (Dong Zunhui was the lieutenant of Zhenwei at the time), and the other is from the seventh-rank official (Wang Shenqi was the deputy lieutenant of Zhiguo). The two did not dare to accept the gift, so they hurriedly avoided and returned the gift.

Guo Congyi successfully recruited Zhao Siwan, which was considered a contribution. Wang Jun was very upset about his easy contribution, so he asked Dong Zunhui with a smile: "Daoan, I heard that you were colleagues with General Zhao in the past. At that time, your official positions should be the same, right?"

Dong Zunhui didn't dare to say much, just nodded slightly.

Wang Jun smiled and said, "Now he has been promoted to the fifth-rank Jiedushi, and your Dong Zunhui has made so many contributions, and has just been promoted to the sixth-rank. It turns out that he is hardworking and is promoted slowly, and he kills people, sets fires and slaps quickly!"

Wang Jun deliberately spoke loudly, Guo Congyi was a little embarrassed, and Zhao Siwan felt it was even more harsh. Moreover, Zhao Siwan was not very clear about the conflict between Wang Jun and Guo Congyi. He even believed that Wang Jun's cold words were hostile to him. Maybe the court would repent after occupying the walls of Jingzhao Prefecture and wanted to kill the donkey! Moreover, the court appointed him as the Jieduan and Remaining Queen. This official position was just a simple matter, and it was the candidate Jieduan, but who would voluntarily step down and hand over the power to outsiders. The only result of the candidate was to be gradually marginalized and idle. In Zhao Siwan's view, he would even be secretly executed after fading out of the court and the country!

Zhao Siwan laughed dryly and said a few words to ease the atmosphere. Wang Jun was just asking for a verbal advantage, embarrassing Guo Congyi, and the atmosphere soon eased up again.

When everyone laughed and the atmosphere was harmonious, Zhao Siwan deliberately looked sad and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I have ordered the entire army to put down their weapons, but the people of Jingzhao Prefecture are a little unruly and retaliated against the soldiers. Some people even bullied me a few days ago. My safety is a trivial matter, but after all, I am also the governor's descendant, representing the majesty of the court. If I am really caught by a slut, it will be a shame for the court. Can I return the weapons so that my subordinates can protect themselves?"

Wang Jun and Guo Congyi looked at each other quietly. What did Zhao Siwan want to do? The people hate you to the core, but you live in the mansion and have the protection of your personal guards, so you will not be harassed by the people at all. Besides, your personal guards are not without close-fitting short swords. You are asking for weapons now, that is, you are asking for big swords, spears, and iron armored shields. Now Jingzhao Mansion has returned to the rule of my great Han Dynasty. What do you want to do with arming your own guards?! Don’t think that we are all as unsightly as Qiao Shouwen!

Guo Congyi smiled and said, "General Zhao, you are just too cautious. Although the people have some opinions about you, how can they have the courage to attack your mansion? Don't worry! If you really feel a little dangerous, why don't I send you some personal soldiers as guards?"

Wang Jun also smiled and said, "I also have many powerful generals under my command, they are enough to protect your safety. If you are really afraid and timid, I can draw an elite force to protect you in person. What do you think?"

Zhao Siwan thanked me repeatedly, but felt very cold in her heart: It seems that there is indeed a ghost in Wang Jun and Guo Congyi's heart. Not only did they reject the request of their armed guards, they also wanted to send someone to monitor me. Could it be that they want to put me under house arrest? Today I only brought my personal bodyguard to the outside of the city. Don't let Guo Congyi set up a Hongmen Banquet, you must be careful!

Zhao Siwan thanked him a few times, and began to persuade him to drink again, avoiding talking about what had just happened. However, Wang Jun and Guo Congyi felt that Zhao Siwan had a ghost in his heart, otherwise why would he refuse the suggestion of sending someone to guard him? Both of them became suspicious of Zhao Siwan.

Soon, Zhao Siwan pretended to be drinking too much and said goodbye. But Wang Jun and Guo Congyi were both old men who were in the officialdom. How could Zhao Siwan's performance level of kindergarten class be hidden from these two people? His artificial behavior made the two even more suspicious.

Guo Congyi stepped back from everyone and frowned and whispered to Wang Jun: "Will this Zhao Siwan be a fraudulent surrender? I think it should notify Guo Shuai to deal with this Zhao Siwan as soon as possible so as not to become a rebellion of my great man when he arrives in Huazhou in the future!"

Wang Jun nodded repeatedly, "I'll write a letter to Guo Shuai. If he agrees, we will start planning this matter. My subordinate Dong Zunhui is brave and resourceful enough to entrust this matter!"

The two of them were talking less and less...
