Chapter 021 tit for tat

"General."

At this moment, one of the soldiers who broke into Age returned and handed over an exquisite white jade vial: "This was found in the bedroom, and it contains poison."

Um?

Liu Bian's heart skipped a beat.

Only then did he realize that the other party's move had a profound meaning.

"Master Bian, please don't panic or reveal your flaws. We have already prepared for the worst. Even if Dong Zhuo really finds out that you were the one who poisoned us, it doesn't matter. We should stay the same to cope with all changes."

"They suddenly attacked Ah Ge and looked for evidence as soon as they entered. This can only prove that the imperial doctor Wang Xuan has been exposed, but they can never guess the real motive of Mr. Bian's move."

"Now is the perfect time to set up a false character. As long as Mr. Ben can get through this, it will be easier to do things next. Success or failure depends on this. Come on, Mr. Ben!"

Hear the voice of the Alliance of Military Advisors.

Liu Bian immediately calmed down.

That's right.

They have already made plans to be discovered. In this case, they are still afraid of eggs!

The alliance of military advisors controls the overall situation and remains unchanged in response to all changes, which is the kingly way.

"I wonder what your Highness's explanation is?"

Li Fang held the white jade vial and stared at Liu Bian with burning eyes.

"Your Highness, you..."

Tang Ji behind her was a little frightened.

But just as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Liu Bian: "Yes, poison is poisoned by a solitary person, and the Food Superintendent also kills by a solitary person. He kills people to pay for his life, and pays back his debts and money. Why won't the general take action?"

"you......"

Liu Bian acted like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, which immediately made Li Fang angry.

He stared, bared his teeth, and clenched his fists tightly: "Do you think I don't dare?"

Canglang~~~

Cold light flashes.

Li Fang unsheathed his sword.

The power of water and fire is about to break out.

"Be bold!"

Tang Ji's beauty turned pale, and her heart was pounding.

But even though she was extremely frightened, she still shouted harshly and refused to give in, trying to protect Liu Bian behind her again.

Liu Bian had eye problems and his hands were faster. He hurriedly stopped Tang Ji, shook his head, and signaled her not to be reckless.

Then, Liu Bian turned to look at Li Fang with a serious look on his face. He took a step forward and put his neck in front of Li Fang's Huanshou sword: "The solitary head is here. If you dare to chop it off, I'll chop it off."

"Your Highness!"

"General, wait!"

Tang Ji and Li Ru said in unison.

The angry Li Fang then forced himself to hold back, sheathed the sword, and turned to look at Li Ru: "Sir, now that the truth is out, let's report back to Sikong quickly, and King Hongnong will be handed over to Sikong."

"OK!"

Liu Bianhun didn't care: "It's best to let Thief Dong execute the orphan himself."

Li Fang suppressed his raging anger: "Seeking death!"

But Li Ru next to him remained silent. He just bowed to Liu Bian and said, "Since His Highness admitted the truth about killing the Food Supervisor, I wonder if you can tell me why you killed the person, and how you made Wang Xuan obey?"

This man is not simple.

It is actually possible to come into contact with two core elements in such a short period of time.

Liu Bian turned to look at the Confucian scholar, and King Hongnong immediately raised his eyebrows: "Who are you? How dare you act wildly in front of the lonely king."

Li Ru bowed his head respectfully: "Your Majesty, Li Ru, is temporarily appointed as the Chief Secretary of Sikong Mansion, and is responsible for assisting General Li in detecting the case. Although His Highness admitted to the murder, the motive for the murder is unknown, and the method of committing the crime is unknown. It still needs to be investigated clearly. We hope that

Your Highness will cooperate."

"Li Ru?"

Liu Bian's heart skipped a beat.

Immediately afterwards, the live broadcast room became excited again:

"Damn, did I hear that right? This guy is Li Ru?"

"Secretary of Sikong Mansion? How come?"

"No wonder he is so smart, it turns out he is Li Ru."

"Master Ben has met his opponent this time."

"..."

At this moment, the voice of the Military Advisor Alliance also sounded: "Historical records indicate that Li Ru was a doctor and is not yet Dong Zhuo's confidant. However, Dong Zhuo's ability to send Li Ru to assist proves that he has already made a name for himself in Sikong Mansion. Master Bian must not underestimate him.

In addition, behavioral experts reminded that Li Ru is a scheming person, good at observing people's words and actions, and making plans before taking action. Master Bian must remember to be cautious and not to reveal his flaws."

Liu Bian controlled his emotions and looked at the other person up and down: "It's such a familiar name. I seem to have heard it somewhere before."

This was originally Liu Bian's prevarication to hide his emotions, but he never thought that Li Ru bowed his head and said: "Xiaguan once served as a doctor in Taichang, and I had the honor to teach for His Highness before."

"The Book of Han: The List of Hundred Officials and Officials" records: "Doctor, an official of Qin, has knowledge of ancient and modern times."

A doctor is an official of Taichang, responsible for educating his disciples and preparing advisors for any questions the state has.

Doctors are selected through worship and recommendation, and there are certain standards. Only after passing an examination can one be recommended as a doctor.

The fact that Li Run can become a doctor is enough to prove that he has real talent and knowledge.

"Oh~~~"

Liu Bian pretended to remember and nodded slowly: "I remember, what you were talking about at that time was... what... was it?"

Li Ru laughed sarcastically: "Your Highness, I don't bother to recall, but you have never been to my class."

Well......

How embarrassing.

Liu Bian was like a defeated rooster, suddenly wilting.

He said with a slight embarrassment: "Well, you surrendered to Dong Zhuo because you were dissatisfied with Gu? Are you relieved to see Gu end up like this?"

"How dare you lower your rank?"

Li Ru handed over his hand again and said softly: "Sikong is eager for talents, and the subordinates also want to make a difference, so they decided to join Dong Gong and serve the country. Although His Highness admitted to the murder today, there are still many doubts about the case, so I take the liberty to ask,

I hope His Highness can cooperate."

"good!"

Liu Bian agreed immediately and said with a long voice: "Since Chief Sikong speaks quickly, how can I hide it and tuck it in? If you ask, Gu Ding will tell the whole story without any reservations."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Li Ru bowed his head and asked softly: "Why did Your Highness want to kill the Food Superintendent?"

Liu Bian replied: "I am alone and have no love in my life. I only want a dead ear. You should report the traitor Dong immediately. I will wait quietly in the pavilion."

Li Ru stared closely at Liu Bian's expression and found nothing unusual, so he asked again: "Why is it the Food Supervisor?"

Liu Bian sneered: "The imperial family is really cruel. One moment you were the emperor, and you had your own clothes and food to serve you. But once you lose power, even a food supervisor will dare to step on your head."

"Kill him!"

Speaking of this, Liu Bian's eyebrows froze, and he revealed his fierce look: "It's just to vent his anger."

Li Ru took a long breath and continued to ask: "What about Wang Xuan? Why did he obey His Highness's orders?"

Liu Bian's lips curved slightly: "People die for money and birds die for food. Don't you understand?"

Li Ru frowned: "Wang Xuan has always been honest and has never been greedy for money."

Liu Bian answered fluently: "Yes, he is indeed honest, but he is more afraid of death. Now that Dong's thieves are causing trouble in the imperial court, everyone in Luoyang is in danger. Wang Xuan has long wanted to escape, so he traded with him in exchange for poison."

Phew~~~~

Li Ru let out a long sigh, his eyes never leaving Liu Bian.

Liu Bian's answer was watertight, and there was no flaw in his expression.

Could it be that...

Is he really just looking for death?

Although everything was logical, Li Ru always felt that things were not that simple for some reason.
