After leaving Situ Mansion, Guo Wei went to the Zhuque Gate in the inner city under the escort of Shi Yanchao.

The ministers of the imperial court, represented by the prime minister Su Yugui, have been waiting at Zhuque Gate for more than two hours.

Zhu Xiu watched Guo Wei and Shi Yanchao lead a cavalry army slowly away. He was sure that Uncle Guo deliberately left the grassroots alone to let them blow more in the cold winter wind.

With Shi Yanchao's protection, there was no need to worry about Guo Wei's safety. Zhu Xiu was thinking about how Guo Wei would negotiate with the ministers after entering the court, as well as the Queen Mother Li in Kunning Palace.

How to transform from a courtier to the throne in a legitimate manner, while also trying to ensure the stability of Kaifeng and other vassal towns as much as possible, is a great test of the political wisdom of Guo Wei and the team behind him.

Zhu Xiu had some ideas, but unfortunately Uncle Guo didn't ask, so naturally he couldn't say much.

Anyway, with Wei Renpu here, Guo Wei would not be allowed to say the wrong thing and take the wrong path.

Chai Rong sent someone to mobilize two commanders of the Tianxiong Army Yajun. He turned around and saw Zhu Xiu staring in the direction of Guo Wei's team in a daze.

"What, you want to follow your father into the court?" Chai Rong said with a smile.

Zhu Xiu solemnly said: "Commander, there are still many tests before you go. It can be said that every step is dangerous and there are traps. If you are not careful, you will be criticized by others and even cause changes in the world. But with the Wei military advisor here, I think I can help you."

Shuai avoids danger."

Chai Rong looked around and said softly: "Actually, Commander-in-Chief Father has not yet decided how to face Empress Dowager Li. After meeting the ministers at Zhuque Gate, Commander-in-Chief Father will find excuses to postpone entering the palace until he can come up with specific countermeasures.

It’s not too late to enter the palace later.”

Zhu Xiu thought for a while and said: "But we can't delay it for too long. Liu Chong, the military governor of Hedong, and Liu Yun, the military governor of Xuzhou. These father and son hold military power and are members of the clan. Once the throne is in doubt, it is inevitable that

These two people are born with ambitions, and their generals will also have their own whims."

Chai Rong nodded, what Zhu Xiu said was indeed a serious hidden danger.

"You first come with me to capture Liu Biao, and then I will take you to see my father and tell him your thoughts."

"That's fine."

The two got on their horses and prepared to lead troops to Kaifeng Prefecture Yamen to arrest the former governor Liu Zhu.

"Who is that person? Stop! Don't come near!"

Just when the two were about to leave with their riding whips, the guards yelled at them not far behind them.

The two of them looked back and saw a man in gray robe with a sinister face and a ferocious face. He was pushing a cart and wanted to get closer, but was stopped by the Tianxiong Army's tooth soldiers.

The cart was stained with large dark black bloodstains and was piled with sacks. No one knew what was in the sacks, rolling around.

Zhu Xiu frowned, feeling that he had seen this man before somewhere.

When the man in gray robe saw Chai Rong, he looked happy and shouted loudly through the guards, "Xingzhou Anguo Army Commander Liu Cijie's subordinates all know He Hui, the military envoy, and they want to see General Chai!"

"Liu Ci's person?"

Chai Rong got off his horse and walked towards He Hui, asking the guards to let him come over.

Zhu Xiu was startled and hurriedly dismounted.

No wonder this guy looked familiar. He turned out to be He Hui, whom he had met in Xingzhou not long ago.

This guy was driven out of Xingzhou by Liu Ci and his whereabouts are unknown. Why did he suddenly appear here?

"He Hui kowtows to see Chai Shuai!" He Hui bent his knees and knelt heavily.

Just as Chai Rong was about to speak, Zhu Xiu pulled him aside and whispered: "Chai Shuai can't trust him! This man secretly took refuge with Nie Wenjin in an attempt to instigate Liu Jieshuai to send troops from Xingzhou to attack Yedu and contain the rear of Ye's army.

Fortunately, Liu Jieshuai saw through his treacherous plan and did not believe him. Our Ye army's rear was able to maintain stability, and the army was able to march all the way south to Kaifeng!

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

This person has been expelled from the Anguo Army by Liu Ci, and there must be a conspiracy when he comes to see Commander Chai today!"

Chai Rong frowned and hesitated slightly.

Although He Hui couldn't hear clearly what Zhu Xiu said, he could guess that he was trying to persuade Chai Rong to ignore him.

He Hui was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, his eyes were spinning wildly, and he said loudly and angrily: "He and Zhu Shaolang have no enmity, so why do they want to kill him? In Xingzhou that day, He did have a dispute with Zhu Shaolang. If Zhu Shaolang has not yet

He is so resentful that he is willing to kowtow to Zhu Shaolang to apologize!"

As he said this, He Hui kowtowed with a bang, causing a red mark on his forehead.

Chai Rong said: "Let's listen to what he wants to say."

"Hey~ Chai Shuai!"

Chai Rong ignored Zhu Xiu's obstruction and walked straight towards He Hui.

Zhu Xiu couldn't stop him, stamped his feet angrily, and hurried over.

"Why did you come to see me?" Chai Rong looked at him and said calmly.

He Hui knelt down and clasped his fists and said: "Someone has a gift, and I would like to give it to Chai Shuai!"

Chai Rong looked at him and moved his eyes towards the cart.

He Hui kowtowed and stood up, stood next to the cart, rummaged through and found a bloody sack, untied the straw rope, and shook out a round, black thing.

When the thing rolled to the ground, Zhu Xiu took a closer look and saw that it turned out to be a human head covered in blood!

Chai Rong frowned and said coldly: "What does this mean?"

He Hui raised the head and said with a ferocious smile: "Commander Chai, please look at it, this is the head of Kaifeng Governor Liu Zhu!"

Chai Rong was startled and hurriedly took a few steps forward to take a closer look.

That gray-blue face covered with black hair is indeed Liu Baht!

"Everyone in Liu Zhu's family, young and old, is here. Please take a look at it, Marshal Chai!"

He Hui untied the straw rope that bound the sack and shook out human heads, some big and some small, old and young, male and female.

Nearly twenty heads were rolling around in the trolley, and the scene was extremely horrifying.

Tianxiong Junyajun is also a warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles, and he couldn't help but gasp when he saw this situation.

Zhu Xiu's face turned a little pale, and she resisted the urge to gag.

He Hui lifted up the heads one by one and introduced them as if taking credit, with a fierce and proud smile on his face.

This guy is indeed a ruthless person!

Chai Rong's frown gradually relaxed, and he stared at Liu Biao's head calmly and indifferently.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Chai Rong asked calmly.

He Hui knelt down and said sincerely: "This villain only wants to serve under Chai Shuai from now on and be a pawn in front of the horse and behind the horse!"

"You want to serve me?" Chai Rong seemed not to have thought that He Hui brought the heads of Liu Zhu's family just to serve him.

"Commander Chai is a great hero in this world, a dragon and a phoenix among men. I am willing to surrender to Marshal Chai and serve him loyally from now on, and die for him!" He Hui kowtowed.

Chai Rong stared at him, silent.

"Commander Chai is not good!" Zhu Xiu ignored He Hui's cannibalistic glare and said solemnly: "This man is cruel and vicious. He received the kindness of Liu Cijie, but he still didn't want to repay him. He secretly colluded with Li Ye.

Nie Wen joined the party in an attempt to confront our Ye army.

Now seeing that Ye's army is unstoppable and the commander-in-chief is about to take over Kaifeng, he takes the opportunity to come and surrender. Such an unfaithful, unbelieving, unkind and unjust person is useless! Please Chai Commander-in-Chief expel this person quickly!"

He Hui gritted his teeth and wanted to get up and chop Zhu Xiu with his knife.

Hu Guangyue secretly clenched the handle of the knife and stared at He Hui, fearing that he would get angry and hurt someone.

Chai Rong was silent for a moment and said coldly: "How can you explain why you colluded with Li Ye and Nie Wen joined the party?"

He Hui hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Chai Shuai Mingjian, the villain was also deceived by Li Ye and others at the beginning. They promised the villain various benefits, but they were not fulfilled at all.

When the villain returned to Kaifeng, Li Ye and others sent people to hunt down the villain. The villain had already become a wanted criminal in the court!

The villain was ignorant before, deceived by treacherous ministers, and did things that were sorry for Liu Jieshuai, but the villain never thought of going against Ye Jun!

The villain was born in a poor family, and he only got where he is today by working hard on the battlefield. I beg Chai Shuai to give the villain a chance to change his ways. The villain will definitely serve the master loyally. If he has any second thoughts, he will be thunderous!"

Chai Rong remained silent, seemingly still hesitating.

Zhu Xiu saw that Chai Rong was a little concerned about taking shelter, and hurriedly said: "This person is cruel and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. He has an opportunistic and villainous mind. Chai Shuai absolutely cannot trust him!"

He Hui looked at Zhu Xiu bitterly, gritted his teeth and pulled out the gaiter, stretched out the little finger of his left hand, and said sternly: "I am willing to cut off my finger as an oath. If I have second thoughts in the future, I will suffer a violent death!"

Blood splattered, and He Hui cut off the little finger of his left hand with a knife.

The dagger fell to the ground. He Hui covered his bloody severed finger, his face turned pale and he was sweating coldly, and his whole body was trembling.

Zhu Xiu took a breath, this guy is so cruel!

Chai Rong looked at him deeply: "I believe you today. From now on, I will stay under the command of Tianxiong Army and be the commander of the infantry. If you make military exploits in the future, I will definitely give you a reward!"

He Hui was overjoyed and kowtowed to Dongdong: "I will pay my respects to Commander Chai! I will die for Commander Chai. I will never regret it!"

"Chai Shuai..." Zhu Xiu still wanted to speak.

Chai Rong waved his hand and said in a low voice: "When employing people now, we should not stick to trivial matters. If he can repent and change his ways, we might as well give him a way to survive. If he dares to behave in both directions in the future, I will naturally not be lenient."

Zhu Xiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, not knowing what to say.

Chai Rong looked at the blood-stained severed finger on the ground and said calmly: "This person has a ruthless nature. If he can serve him faithfully, he will have his uses. You don't need to worry. As long as I am here, he will not cause any trouble."
