When I just got divorced, I was overheard

Chapter 485: Traitor?I just told them
"Everyone, get up and take me to see Mr. Wu An."

Suddenly, the atmosphere at the scene was silent, but someone still came forward and said: "Your Majesty, please come here."

When Li Xiuzhu came to a tent, he was slightly stunned.

At this time, there were only a few people in front of the camp, but they had already begun to decorate with white silk ribbons, and even the few guards guarding the door brought white silk ribbons with them.

"When did this happen?"

"The general was found dead this morning."

Li Xiuzhu nodded and walked in.

All the way to the front of Wu'an Lord Bai Zhan, Li Xiuzhu looked a little guilty when he looked at Bai Zhan in the coffin.

Lord Wu An died on behalf of his father-in-law, and it was his father-in-law who recommended him.

If he had come, then Lord Wu An would not have died.

Thinking about what I learned when I came here, Wu Anjun's family only has one wife, one concubine and one son.

"Wu An, please feel free to leave. I, Li Xiuzhu, will be watching over your home. As long as you are not doing anything wrong, I will help with everything."

After speaking, Li Xiuzhu laid incense sticks for Mr. Wu An and left.

The men in black who came to assassinate him were all well-known underworld masters in the world, and they were very tough-talking, but Li Xiuzhu still used the life and death talisman to force out the murderer.

It's not a big official, but a local power, or a powerful family.

The Sun family in Suhang owns one-third of the wealth in Suhang.

Among them, land transport escorts and caravans account for nearly half of the Sun family's annual financial income. If the Grand Canal is opened, transportation will become simpler.

Escorts are definitely less in demand and often easier.

This is stealing food from their bowls, so it is naturally impossible for the imperial court to dig a canal from Suzhou and Hangzhou to Dongdu.

They were out of reach north of the Huai River, and they were also secretly recruiting experts to build up their strength, so it was not until the supervisors of the Grand Canal arrived in Chuzhou that they suddenly launched an attack.

Moreover, the Sun family is a powerful family, and there are many disciples of the family in the court. It was these people who revealed the information about Li Xiuzhu's trip to Beijing.

Moreover, the local garrison generals in Suzhou and Hangzhou were also members of the Sun family.

The [-] permanent troops stationed in Suzhou and Hangzhou have really rebelled, and it is not impossible to fight them in a fight.

Li Xiuzhu thought for a while and did not directly go to the Sun family to cause trouble. Instead, he chose to continue digging the Grand Canal.

There are only [-] defenders here now. Even though [-] is a lot, the siege losses are definitely double or even several times that of the opponent.

And the most important thing is the millions of people.

Millions of people working are divided equally, and one person is responsible for the work of ten people.

At this time, a voice came from outside Li Xiuzhu's tent.

"Inform me, I'm going to see the prince."

After the soldiers came in, before they spoke, Li Xiuzhu said, "Let them in."

The people who came in were all military generals, each wearing a white silk ribbon, and there were about a dozen of them.

Li Xiuzhu looked at a few people and asked, "Are you here to seek revenge?"

Li Xiuzhu's abrupt words interrupted everyone's rhythm, and after a moment's pause, a few soldiers stood up.

His eyes were red and murderous, and of course they were not directed at Li Xiuzhu.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the general's death is a provocation to us, and he is also our unforgivable enemy."

"If this revenge is not avenged, I will not be able to calm down in Yu Hai."

Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard this, looked at the others and said, "You also want revenge?"

"That's right, my lord."

"If this revenge is not avenged, we will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Li Xiuzhu nodded again and asked, "Then do you know who you want to take revenge on?"

Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment, yes, they didn't even know who their enemy was.

"..." "..."

Seeing that none of these people spoke, Li Xiuzhu continued: "Don't you know? But I know."

Suddenly, the fire of frustration in everyone's hearts was extinguished and they became excited.

"My lord, tell me quickly, who is it?"

"I will definitely pluck out their skins to pay homage to the general's spirit in heaven."

When Li Xiuzhu heard this, he didn't hide anything and said, "Suhang and Sun family."

Li Xiuzhu was looking at these people from the beginning when he spoke. When he said that he knew the mastermind behind the scenes, some people's expressions obviously changed slightly.

When he mentioned the Suhangsun family, the expressions of a lot of people changed.

Naturally, these people cannot all be traitors. In fact, on the contrary, most of the facial expression changes of these people are normal.

Knowing the details of the Sun family, it was impossible for them not to know what Li Xiuzhu's words meant.

Thinking of that behemoth, it was normal for their expressions to change.

Among the remaining people, either they don't know the details of the Sun family, or they are traitors.

Unlike those who didn't know the details of the Sun family and were confused, the traitor's face was more solemn and surprised.

What was surprising was that Li Xiuzhu really knew. What was solemn was that Li Xiuzhu really knew.

Seeing this, Li Xiuzhu felt confident.

At this time, Yu Hai, who spoke first, said with an embarrassed expression: "My lord, please tell me what we should do? We will listen to you."

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu did not take Yu Hai's hat, and said: "Let's put this matter aside for the time being. Send out 1000 scouts to pay close attention to the surrounding movements."

"As long as there is any sign of trouble, you must go and check. If a team of scouts cannot be contacted for a quarter of an hour, they will give an early warning. If a team of scouts lose contact for more than an hour, the entire army will be on alert."

"Okay, if nothing happens, go down."

That's it? ? ?

That's it……

"Your Majesty, is this the death of the general? I refuse to accept it."

Li Xiuzhu heard the words and said: "I will report this matter to the court, and the court will make its own decision. What you have to do well is to ensure that the Grand Canal is excavated as scheduled."

As he said that, Li Xiuzhu paused.

"Of course, if Suzhou and Hangzhou send troops, it will be a rebellion. By then you will have wiped out the Sun family, and there won't be much of a problem."

In fact, murdering a court official is also committing rebellion, but attacking a city is definitely not possible.

Hearing Li Xiuzhu's words, several soldiers saw murderous intent. Some of the murderous intent was against the Sun family, but most of it was directed at him.

"Go down, prioritize the excavation of the Grand Canal."

After this went on, the women behind the screen came out.

Du Sanniang entered the house because of Li Xiuzhu's rescue. She couldn't see the injustice, so she frowned and asked, "Master, is this the end of it?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.

"Of course we won't leave it at that, but the most important thing now is the excavation of the Grand Canal."

"Moreover, Suzhou and Hangzhou have not experienced war for a hundred years, and the city walls are stable."

"If you want to fight [-] with [-], the casualties will be heavy. Will I be able to supervise millions of people on the Grand Canal?"

At this time, Bi Xiuxin said: "Your Majesty, there should be spies among those people just now. There are several people who have murderous intentions towards you, Your Majesty. Why don't we deal with it?"

"No need, the Sun family is powerful, so naturally there may be Sun family members in many places."

"I know that [-]% of them are traitors. The reason why I still express my attitude clearly is to tell them, don't provoke me, otherwise they won't be able to make a decision in court."

"It's difficult to attack a city. Is it better to fight on the ground with 10 than to defeat 3?"
