Chapter 497

At the northern foot of Maple Leaf Mountain.

Xiahou Zhuo's troops, who had traveled a long distance from Yanyun Pass, were stationed here.

In the tent of the Chinese army commander, the already dark face of the burly Xia Houzhuo was even darker now!

His leopard-like eyes fixedly stared at the scout kneeling on one knee in front of him, and he had stared at the scout like this for a full cup of tea.

The muscles in his face were twitching.

There seemed to be fire in his eyes!

It was obviously cold.

But the sweat on the scout's forehead had already wet the ground in front of him!

At this moment, the body of the scout was trembling slightly.

Xia Houzhuo finally opened his mouth, and the cold words seemed to squeeze out from between his teeth:

"Now you're telling me that General Li Chen'an has just arrived at Wufanyuan?"

"He still came from Zhouzhuang?"

"Then isn't he in the team of one hundred people who headed directly from Guangling City to Fengxian County at all?"

"Bang...!" There was a loud noise.

Xia Houzhuo smashed the tea cup on the table on the scout's forehead, and the scout staggered and sat on the ground.

He didn't touch the wound on his forehead, he got up from the ground and knelt down in front of Xia Houzhuo again.

Blood dripped from his forehead onto the ground.

"General, general... damn it!"

"The last general has been following the team of one hundred people... the last general, the last general..."

Xiahou Zhuo got up suddenly, and kicked the scout flying away.

The scout hurriedly got up again, not paying attention to the blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

He crawled towards Xia Houzhuo.

"Zhang Datou, thank you for being the centurion of Lao Tzu's scout battalion!"

Xia Houzhuo took a step and stood in front of this scout centurion named Zhang Datou.

"I trust you so much, and entrusted you with such an important task... You bastard, you have been following that team of hundreds of people all the time... After such a long time, you haven't noticed that there is anything unusual about that team?! "

Zhang Datou, who was kneeling on the ground, swallowed a mouthful of blood foam, and hurriedly said:
"General...the last general really has been staring at that team, and, can't find anything unusual."

"Then in the past 20 days, have you seen Li Chen'an in that team?"

"……No,"

Xiahou Zhuo was furious, he raised his slap, and was about to slap it down, but he heard the big head exclaimed: "General!"

"The last general, the last general has never seen Li Chen'an, but, the last general has been staring, staring at that donkey!"

When Xia Houzhuo heard it, he was happy.

He didn't slap him down, "I told you to stare at Li Chen'an, but you stared at a donkey?"

"Mother donkey?"

"The general is wise and predicts things like a god, he really is a mother..."

Xia Houzhuo kicked again.

Zhang Dafa let out a shrill scream. He was kicked out of the handsome tent by this kick, and fell into the muddy ground outside. For a moment, there was no more sound.

Xia Houzhuo took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his chest.

He turned to look at an old man sitting at the table.

It was an old man in a large black robe and a black veil.

He just sat at the table and watched Xiahou Zhuo kick the centurion to death.

His gray eyebrows didn't even jump.

Like a dead dog.

He even picked up the teacup, lifted the corner of the face towel, and took a sip of tea before he said calmly:

"You wronged him."

"Where is the injustice?"

"The old man's daughter is by Li Chen'an's side, it's no secret!"

"The old man's daughter is the owner of Wanxi Zhai. She came riding a black donkey, and that black donkey was always by her side..."

"Your scout centurion knows this!"

"Li Chen'an is hiding in the team of hundreds of people. He is worried that he will be assassinated, so he doesn't care to show up...Of course you, scout centurion, can't see Li Chen'an himself."

"But since the donkey is there, it means that the old man's daughter is there."

"The old man's daughter is here, which means Li Chen'an is here."

Xiahou Zhuo looked at the old man in black with a gloomy face. After a while, he walked over and sat opposite to the old man in black.

"Old Xi, but Li Chen'an's plan to cover up the old position is not very clever!"

He is Xi Wei!

He was actually in Xia Houzhuo's tent!
Xi Wei stroked his long beard, "Who can tell if it's true or not?"

"Isn't Li Chenan here now?"

"What's the difference between that and whether he was in that hundred-man team?"

Xia Houzhuo's rough appearance doesn't mean he's stupid.

To be able to become the coach of the northern frontier army, he certainly has his brains.

"Can this be the same?"

"Li Chen'an obviously didn't have to come, but he came anyway. What does that mean?"

Xia Houzhuo leaned over, stretched out a thick finger and knocked on the table:

"He came prepared!"

"He just wants to bury General Ben in Feng County!"

Xi Wei put down the teacup, looked up at Xiahou Zhuo, "He only brought 1000 people!"

"In Wushanyuan, more than [-] miles in front of us, there are still [-] government soldiers who are his enemies!"

"Did Zhong Lipo's [-] Shu soldiers go to Yanyun Pass as the old man expected?"

"The Red Flame Army can't move at Wuya Pass, and the Shenwu Army can't move at East Qu Pass either!"

"You tell the old man, where is he still there?"

"Just those brats from the Imperial City Division?"

"If those little ghosts dare to come, just clean them up!"

Xiahou Zhuo sat up straight.

Doubtful.

Because he couldn't figure out what kind of backhand Li Chenan had.

But Li Chenan did come, it is impossible for him to seek death!

Then what is he running here for?
Xiahou Zhuo looked at Xi Wei: "I've come all this way, but I still don't know one thing!"

Xi Wei smiled slightly: "Is it because the old man surrendered Ning Guo to him?"

"Please ask Mr. Xi to clarify the confusion!"

Xi Wei stood up slowly, walked to the door of the handsome tent, and looked at the stars in the night sky.

"This old man has only one daughter, but no son!"

"If this old man ascends the throne and becomes emperor...do you think the Dingguohou's mansion will be so quiet?"

"If the old man really becomes the emperor... Do you think the civil and military ministers in the court will agree?"

"Ningguo, there will definitely be chaos!"

"Yue Kingdom has the best excuse to invade Ning Kingdom...the battle between Zhao Miao, the fourth prince of Yue Kingdom, and the crown prince is at the most critical moment, and what he needs most now is a great military achievement!"

"Don't forget that Xigu City still has [-] soldiers, and they can send troops to the east at any time."

"The situation facing Ningguo is not just a mess of words!"

With his hands behind his back, Xi Wei looked up at the moon again, "The country will perish!"

He turned around, with a cold look in his eyes:
"If Ningguo dies, this old man won't do any good. You..."

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Xia Houzhuo: "You are also not doing any good!"

"Instead of doing that, it's better to hand over Ningguo to Li Chen'an."

"Didn't the first emperor spread that he was the eldest son of the emperor? This old man thought that he would ascend the throne as emperor, but he didn't expect that he would just become a regent..."

"He is going to welcome back the eldest son of the emperor. The eldest son of the emperor is the son of Empress Lu."

"There are many officials in the court who love Empress Lu. The eldest son of the emperor is orthodox in Ningguo, and he will be supported by everyone... This is not in your and my interests!"

Xia Houzhuo narrowed his eyes, "Is this the reason why you want to kill Li Chen'an now?"

"Correct!"

"...Kill Li Chen'an, who will be the emperor?"

"Third Prince Ning Zhiyuan, how are you?"
