Chapter 589： Delay tactics

"Is Mr. Tian mistakenly mistaken? There are only people from Prince Rui's palace here, but there are no collaborators and traitors." Wei Ruodao.

"There is no mistake about it. Xu Zhengyong, the traitorous spy, is here now."

“Xu Zhengyong is a sixth-rank Zhaowu general. How could he be a collaborator with the enemy and treason? If so, it needs to be judged by the governor.” Wei Ruodao.

“It seems like you want to harbor criminals?”

"Why do Lord Tian pretend not to understand what I say? Whether it is collaboration with the enemy or treason is left to the Governor-General to judge, so why does Lord Tian need to take action here?" Wei Ruodao.

"No, I think you just want to harbor criminals. If you don't cooperate, it's my fault. I can only use force to take you down."

After saying this, Tian Yuande was about to give the order for his subordinates to take action.

Yu Zixiu and everyone behind him and in the courtyard suddenly became nervous.

The opponent has a large number of people, but they only have a few dozen people here. In addition, the prince is also seriously injured. If they fight, their chances of winning are too low!

"Wait a minute." Wei Ruo stopped, "Mr. Tian, ​​all you want is to cover up the fact that you framed Xu Zhengyong. This matter is not a big deal. Why do you need to involve us, the people from Prince Rui's Palace, too?"

Tian Yuande narrowed his eyes and looked at Wei Ruolai again.

Wei Ruo took the opportunity to continue: "Master Tian, ​​you deliberately gave Xu Zhengyong wrong instructions, asking him to lead only a few people to patrol the enemy's haunted areas, and let him be captured by the enemy, right? And the reason is also very simple, Xu Zhengyong He disagrees with you on many points, and you worry that he will take your place.”

Tian Yuande, who was completely convinced by Wei Ruo, did not panic, but clapped his hands.

"It's interesting. It seems that Prince Bingyangzi is not without capable men. It's a pity that you guessed one thing wrong. You are in Ji Town today. Even if you die, I still have ten thousand reasons to give Prince Rui's Mansion Talk to the capital. You must know that the border areas are the most unstable. The enemy's meticulous operations, roaming bandits, and rampaging refugees can kill you all."

Wei Ruo continued: "I know that Mr. Tian has already thought of a countermeasure, but the premise is that the people here today are only some insignificant people in Prince Rui's Mansion. If there are more important people among us, Mr. Tian The excuses and reasons mentioned cannot cover up the past, and the prince will definitely ask for orders to investigate the matter thoroughly, and the emperor who loves the prince will definitely pursue the matter to the end for the prince."

“Oh, what a fool!” Tian Yuande laughed, “How could Prince Rui be favored? If he was favored, how could he be granted a fiefdom and come to Jiliao? I think the rumors in the capital about Prince Rui being favored are just rumors!”

"Prince Rui was granted the title of Ji Liao because of his illness, but it does not mean that he is not favored." Wei Ruo was unhurried.

"I don't believe that, I only look at the results. I think he is clearly not favored! Furthermore, so what if he is favored? With such a short life, how can he still have the ability to go to the capital to file a complaint? When he comes, this Jiliao is Longjian Shoal , but it’s not as easy as it was in the capital.”

Wei Ruo asked back: "What if Mr. Tian's judgment is wrong? Why would Mr. Tian want to gamble? Originally, this was just a trivial matter, and Xu Zhengyong was not in danger, but if it becomes an enemy of Prince Rui's Mansion, even if it is Things will be much more troublesome in Prince Rui's Mansion if he is not favored."

Although Tian Yuande still looked arrogant, he was already a little shaken in his heart.

He really didn’t want to make things worse.

At first he just wanted to find an opportunity to eradicate his dissidents. He originally thought that Xu Zhengyong would never return after being captured by the Jurchen tribe, so there would be no evidence of his death.

Now that he is still alive and has returned to Daye, this is a big trouble for him. By dealing with so many people from Prince Rui's Mansion in Ji Town, the risk for him increased hundreds to thousands of times.

Wei Ruo added: "I wonder if Mr. Tian has heard of it. The relationship between Princess Rui and the Lu family in the capital is pretty good. Even if Prince Rui's house does not favor her, Mr. Tian of the Lu family shouldn't want to offend her, right?"

Tian Yuande sneered: "Humph, are you threatening me?"

Wei Ruo replied: "I am discussing with Mr. Tian."

Tian Yuande said: "It's very simple to discuss. Hand over Xu Zhengyong first, and we will talk about the rest of the matter slowly."

Wei Ruodao: "Master Tian should know that Xu Zhengyong is the adopted brother of our princess. It is difficult for us to hand him over to you."

Tian Yuande's eyes were sharp and he sneered: "You have been saying that you have been refusing to hand over Xu Zhengyong to me for a long time, so you want to discuss it with me? You don't think I'm really afraid of what you said, do you? Then you are really naive ! As long as I let you all die, no one will know about what happened today. They won’t even know about King Rui or the Lu family!"

Wei Ruodao: "Master Tian, ​​please don't worry. Maybe there is another way to solve the problem. We don't need to hand over Xu Zhengyong, and you don't need to besiege us. You can also help my lord avoid future troubles."

Tian Yuande said: "Then you can tell me what kind of solution?"

“I can’t explain it clearly in a few sentences, so why don’t Master Tian sit down and drink a cup of tea and speak slowly,” Wei Ruodao said.

“You want to set a trap for me?” Tian Yuande is a cautious person and does not trust others easily.

"I don't dare. If you are worried, I will have the tables and chairs moved here." Wei Ruodao.

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome, just say it." Tian Yuande didn't have much patience.

“Then why don’t you ask Mr. Tian to taste the fine wine our Prince Rui’s Mansion brought from the capital?” Wei Ruo asked again.

“Stop talking nonsense and tell me your solution quickly!” Tian Yuande suddenly drew his sword and pointed it at Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo raised his head and looked at Tian Yuande, who was immediately at war with him, and quickly changed his words: "Master Tian, ​​don't be anxious. You don't have to drink if you don't want to."

Tian Yuande said coldly: "What do you want to say after you have been nagging for so long? I don't have the patience to listen to your nonsense! You have only one stick of incense to explain the matter clearly. If you exceed this time, you can't convince me. I’ll kill everyone in this yard!”

Wei Ruo, however, remained unhurried: "Master Tian is already here, so there's no time left, right? I'm just analyzing the pros and cons for Master Tian, ​​and letting Master Tian consider it carefully before making a decision. Once the two sides take action, But it’s hard to recover from the overflowing water. We in Prince Rui’s Mansion don’t want to make enemies soon after arriving in Jiliao, and Lord Tian doesn’t want to have another obstacle to his official career for no reason.”

"Lori, what a shame! What a lot of nonsense! I thought you were smart, but it turned out to be nothing more than that! It seems I still have to use force!"

“Is it true that there is no room for negotiation at all?”
