The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 319: True and False Marquis

The door opened, and the Ranger General Qiu Lie really appeared outside the door!

I saw him wearing a gray gown, with a knife in his hand, filled with a murderous aura. At the same time, he has a cautious expression on his face, and his eyes are scrutinizing. He is not at all decadent indulging in fine wine, which is completely different from what he saw during the day.

This is the true character of a general!

Li Yuanfang invited him into the room, he scanned the four of them, and finally locked his eyes on Xiao Rui.

"My son this time, when you first arrived in Junzhen during the day, you inquired about my address, and then went directly to my house. I don't know why you are looking for my address? Also, what are you asking about Lord Zhenyuan? Judging from your accent, it should be an outsider. Right!" Qiu Lie asked coldly.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "General Qiu is not as drunk and dreamy as the rumors say, on the contrary, he has a plan in his heart. If so, why don't you guess?"

Qiu Lie shook his head, and said in a cold voice: "I don't have that ability, I ask the four of you to expressly tell the truth, don't hide it, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After finishing speaking, Qiu Lie gestured to the saber in his hand, as if he said that if he didn't tell the truth, he would let you all know why the knife is so sharp!

Xiao Rui gave him face and held back his smile.

Who gave you the courage to say that you are ruthless in front of Yuan Fang and Dian Wei? Could it be that the two of them are pressing you on the ground and rubbing against each other rhythmically, let's see who is ruthless!

Xiao Rui waved his hand, and Li Yuanfang took out the official seal and token of the supervisory censor. After Qiu Lie looked at it, he didn't take it seriously: "The young master is the lord of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but with his official position, it's better not to ask the Lord Marquis casually." What happened! There are not only supervisory censors in the military town, but three of them!"

"The supervisory censor has the power to supervise military affairs, so he can't ask about the affairs of Lord Hou, but he has accepted so many adoptive sons, so he can always check it!" Xiao Rui said.

Qiu Lie asked: "My lord is here to investigate the military affairs of the military town? If that's the case, I advise you to leave early, don't fall into danger, and waste your life in vain!"

Xiao Rui showed a bright smile, it seems that there is something tricky here!

"General Qiu must know something, can you tell me the truth?" Xiao Rui asked.

Qiu Lie shook his head and said, "Since you are an official of the imperial court, follow my advice and leave quickly! Asking too many questions will do you no good!"

Xiao Rui looked at Guo Jia, Guo Jia nodded, so Xiao Rui took out the Prince's Order, threw it to Qiu Lie, and asked: "Now, can this king know?"

Qiu Lie received the prince's order, and after seeing the token clearly, his cautious expression was filled with shock. He quickly held up the token with both hands, and said respectfully: "The general has no eyes, and offended His Royal Highness King Xian, the general is willing to accept all punishments." ! The final general implores His Highness to be the master of Lord Hou!"

Xiao Rui waved his hand and asked Li Yuanfang to help him up, and said: "When we first arrived in the military town, we found out that you are one of the few generals who can contact the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and have not been recruited by him as a son and punished by him. , so I also believe that you may be able to ask something different from your mouth. What happened to Zhenyuanhou? Could it be that he has really changed a person, so he changed from the integrity and loyalty to the conniving righteousness now. Are you corrupt and perverting the law, or even suspected of forming a party for personal gain?"

"No! Lord Marquis absolutely not!" Qiu Lie hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, it is not a bad thing for your lord to punish the general, because when he punishes the general, the general can see him with his own eyes! That's why the general can discover the current Lord Marquis." Not the real Marquis!"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Rui hurriedly asked.

Qiu Lie said: "Your Highness doesn't know something. Although the last general has been added as a knight-errant general, he was the Hou Ye's bodyguard many years ago and has been following him, so he is familiar with the situation of the Hou Ye. Lord Hou, although his appearance has not changed, but his gestures are definitely not the same as Lord Hou!"

"You mean, even though the Marquis of Zhenyuan is still the Marquis of Zhenyuan, with the same skin, but the souls are two completely different people!" Xiao Rui said.

Qiu Lie nodded solemnly, and said: "That's right! The general knows that this is unbelievable, but it is true. In the past two years, Lord Hou has not managed military affairs by himself. An old subordinate like me! So this strengthens the general's conjecture, the current Lord Hou is definitely not the real Lord Hou. But the general wants to break his head, but he can't figure it out. Could it be that Lord Hou is sick?"

Xiao Rui and Guo Jia looked at each other, they happened to experience Jin Yuner's personality change, they were completely different, could it be that Marquis Zhenyuan also suffered from split personality?

impossible!

Xiao Rui immediately vetoed this guess. Zhenyuan Hou is fifty years old and still has a split personality. Do you really think that split personality is so easy?

Guo Jia calculated: "Since two years ago, the Marquis of Zhenyuan has become mysterious, unwilling to meet people he used to know, and began to recruit adopted sons, form cronies, and withhold military salaries, and now he has reached into the trade between the two countries to seek Private. If General Qiu is right, then the Marquis of Zhenyuan might not be the real Marquis!"

Qiu Lie sighed and said: "This is also the place where the last general can't figure it out!"

"Master Hou's appearance hasn't changed in any way, it's impossible for someone else to disguise himself! Could it be that Master Hou was coerced and threatened by others?"

"Impossible!" Xiao Rui retorted: "What kind of person is the Marquis of Zhenyuan, he is not afraid of the shrouded body of horse leather, how could he be threatened!"

"In addition, who stipulates that the same face is a person?" Xiao Rui asked back.

"Your Highness is referring to the human skin mask?" Guo Jia said.

Xiao Rui nodded, and said: "With the clever disguise technique and the human skin mask, you can imitate lifelike, but the appearance can be imitated, but the character and character cannot be imitated, so Zhenyuan Hou will not see acquaintances."

Guo Jia said solemnly: "If the current Marquis of Zhenyuan is fake, then this person is really daring. Besides, where is the real Marquis? Could it be that he has been killed?"

"No one was killed!" Qiu Lie said, "Your Highness, if the Marquis of Zhenyuan is a fake, we must keep the real Marquis to deal with the flaws we are facing, otherwise it will be easier to leak it, just like the last general, now I suspect him true or false."

Guo Jia also said: "It's impossible to be killed, but I'm more curious about who these people are and how they did it!"

Xiao Rui is also very curious, who can have this method, can kidnap the real Marquis silently, and replace it with a fake one, and even persisted for so long, if Xiao Rui hadn't come here, what would Qiu Lie doubt? use? He is just a ranger general from the fifth rank.

"Then let's reveal the true face of the real Marquis, but how to operate it? If I don't reveal my identity, I won't be able to get close to the Marquis of Zhenyuan at all!" Xiao Rui wondered.

Guo Jia looked at Qiu Lie and asked, "Who is the Marquis of Zhenyuan closest to, and who does he often see?"

"I'm closest to the righteous son He Ying. He Ying is one of the four general soldiers under him, followed by the other three righteous son general soldiers. These four people are now nicknamed the Four Dogs by the people in the military town. They may not be proficient in leading troops to fight , but flattery, blackmail and threats are very sloppy." Qiu Lie said.

Guo Jia continued to ask: "How is this He Ying's courage? How is his character?"

Qiu Lie looked disgusted, and said: "Courage? It's smaller than a mouse's egg. We lead the soldiers, and the brothers will fight with me. He leads the soldiers and the brothers will go to me. As for this person's character, he has someone. Lustful and greedy, greedy for life and afraid of death, his ability to become the chief soldier is entirely due to the promotion of the current Marquis Zhenyuan."

"Okay, the more people like this, the easier it is to communicate." Guo Jia laughed.

Seeing Guo Jia's smile, Xiao Rui knew that he had already made up his mind, and said, "General Qiu, you are no different from being suspended now, and now I have ordered you to be recruited to assist me in investigating the real situation of Marquis Zhenyuan. Would you like to?"

"The general is willing!" Qiu Lie clasped his fists in response.

Xiao Rui nodded, looked at Guo Jia, and asked, "Feng Xiao, do you have any arrangements?"

Guo Jia was blunt, and said directly: "Then please, General Qiu, to find out some places He Ying likes to go to for us!"

"Your Highness and gentlemen, don't worry, the general will investigate the information and deliver it in person at midnight tomorrow," Qiu Lie said.

Xiao Rui smiled and said, "Then there is General Lao Qiu."

Qiu Lie looked embarrassed and said, "This is what a general should do!"

At about six o'clock the next day, Qiu Lie really came back, and he had checked out He Ying's daily itinerary, such as where he went to relax, what kind of wine he liked to drink, and what kind of girls he liked to find.

After Guo Jia read the information, he decided to come to a play at night and meet this Zongbing He.

At this time, Qiu Lie hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Your Highness, Mr. Feng Xiao, there is something in the end that I don't know whether to ask or not?"

"Oh, tell me!" Xiao Rui asked.

Qiu Lie said: "Although the last general is familiar with Lord Hou, he is only a knight-errant general. Now he has been dismissed from his post and has no manpower under his command. Brother Yuan Fang should have known that besides the last general, there are still a few isolated people in the military town. Their official positions are higher than mine, and there are still some people on hand, so does the last general mean to contact them? Your Highness is here for the first time, and safety is the first time, so be careful."

Xiao Rui looked at Guo Jia. After thinking about it, Guo Jia said, "It's not impossible, but we must ensure that the other party is reliable. Once the news of His Royal Highness's coming to the military town is spread, it will be difficult to find out the truth!"

Qiu Lie hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Feng Xiao, the characters and abilities of the people mentioned at the end are guaranteed, and they will never reveal His Highness's plan."

"In that case, then you should try to contact them." Xiao Rui made a final decision.

Qiu Lie quickly withdrew after receiving the order.

Now there is still more than half a day before night falls, so under the escort of Dian Wei, Xiao Rui left the military town and headed south at high speed, stepping on the territory of Yan Kingdom accurately.

Who asked the system to give him the task of stepping into the territory of Yan Kingdom, even if he completed the task, that's why the current scene, Xiao Rui went to earn the advent point, this matter can't be blamed on himself, but the system didn't make it clear.
