Xu You naturally knew that if King Wei was a son of Duke Wei, once his identity was revealed, many people in the northwest would support him.

Because of this, he took the initiative to send people to King Wei to discuss an alliance.

But King Wei was too arrogant and didn't see his people. After a few months, they didn't even know what King Wei looked like!

"This thief is even more arrogant than Emperor Jingyuan!" Xu You's eyes flashed with murderous intent and he looked at Mr. Qianshan: "Sir, this person is a serious problem for us and we cannot keep him here."

Mr. Qianshan understood what Xu You meant, but said: "Master Hou, this matter cannot be rushed. Liang Xi came back with news, saying that there were many capable people around that man, and it would be difficult to assassinate him. They could not find a chance to do it... …and there’s another strange thing.”

"What's going on?" Xu You asked.

Mr. Qianshan glanced at Xu You, walked to the sand table in the big tent, pulled up a small flag stuck on the sand pile, pointed at the two small sand piles on the sand table and said: "I suspect that there are two King Wei."

Xu You frowned: "Two kings of guards?"

"Yes." Mr. Qianshan nodded and said: "The force of King Wei suddenly appeared, and when this force expanded in the Northeast, it also fought in Dongqing to seize Dongqing's land... Although it only takes King Wei had enough men under his command to attack Dongqing and expand the Northeast at the same time. However, Liang Xi said that King Wei, who fought in Dongqing, had never returned to the Northeast, but his people discovered that there was someone in the Northeast who claimed to be King Wei and was trying to win over the locals. Prominent family."

"At first, Liang Xi thought it was King Wei's adviser who was acting in the Northeast in the name of King Wei, but later he found out that there was actually a King Wei who was in charge in the Northeast. The head of the Hope Clan had seen that King Wei."

Xu You frowned when he heard this: "Liang Xi reported these things to me, and we also analyzed them together at the beginning. We speculated that the King Wei in the Northeast was fake. The King Wei who fought in Dongqing and commanded tens of thousands of troops was the real one. .”

"Master Marquis, maybe our previous analysis was wrong. I suspect that there are two True Guard Kings over there." Mr. Qianshan looked at Xu You and smiled: "If there are two True Guard Kings, then as long as we find the Northeast The King of Wei of Dongqing, formed an alliance with him, and then used his hands to assassinate the King of Wei of Dongqing, and swallowed up the troops of King Wei of Dongqing, so their power will no longer be feared!"

There are two guard kings, one civil and one military. The one without soldiers must have been suppressed and must have resentment in his heart. As long as the northeast guard king without soldiers is drawn over and alienated between them, the guard king who is fighting in Dongqing can be eliminated.

Mr. Qianshan told Xu You this.

Xu You was overjoyed when he heard this: "Sir, you are indeed very resourceful, and I admire you. I will send a letter to Liang Xi and ask him to act according to your plan."

Xu You immediately wrote a letter. After finishing it, he handed it to Mr. Qianshan: "Sir, please have a look. If there is anything wrong, feel free to raise it."

Mr. Qianshan took it and read it. After a while, he nodded and said: "Master Hou wrote it very clearly. There is no need to change it."

After hearing this, Xu You put away the letter with satisfaction and asked Mr. Qianshan again: "Xiao Liu has a rather irritable temper. Please give me more time to teach him."

Xu You didn't care about Zhuang Liang's life or death, nor was he angry that Xu Liu sent people to kill Zhuang Liang with a wild wolf. He just felt that Xu Liu's temper was too hasty and he should have waited until after the new year, when everyone had forgotten Zhuang Liang, before killing him. Zhuang Liang.

Mr. Qianshan said: "Don't worry, Mr. Marquis, the Sixth Young Master has a distinguished status. I will use all my knowledge to teach the Sixth Young Master well. It's just that the Sixth Young Master has to learn too much, so he must plan it carefully to avoid learning too much and too much time." If you play it too tightly, your learning will be messed up."

Mr. Qianshan noticed that Xu Liu's temper was getting more and more irritable.

They asked Xu He to look at it, but they didn't see any problems. They just said that the Sixth Young Master had learned too much, was under great pressure, and thought too much, which led to excessive anger and bad temper.

Xu You frowned: "But there are too many things going on in the northwest. Xiaoliu must learn his skills quickly and win over the northwest generals, local prominent families, and high-ranking officials and nobles from the capital. Otherwise, even if he succeeds, he may not be able to take on this burden. "

Mr. Qianshan smiled: "The Marquis is in his prime. As long as you are here, the Sixth Young Master does not need to rush to take over the burden."

Xu You was very happy to hear this. After all, no one was willing to give away his rights too quickly, even if the person receiving his rights was his most beloved son.

"Sure, I have agreed that I will reduce Xiao Liu's homework and work so that he can relax more easily." Xu You told Mr. Qianshan about the four secret granaries in Da Chu. At that time, Mr. Qianshan left to arrange for people to search for the hidden granary.

After Mr. Qianshan left, Xu You called Manager Xu in and said to him: "The matter of cassava will be planted and tasted by Qin, Xie and Niu. We will discuss it after a year. Go and pass the news on." To Qin Sanlang."

Xu You was very shrewd. He just asked his subordinates to pass the message and did not give a formal order. If Qin Sanlang and the others had any problems with their food, it had nothing to do with him.

"Yes." Manager Xu accepted the order and asked: "Master Hou, what should I do with the cassava brought back? After all, the Sixth Young Master specially asked it to be transported back. If it is thrown away, I am afraid it will hurt the Sixth Young Master."

Xu You said: "Send people to remove the poison according to the water immersion method, and then feed it to the animals."

"Yes." Manager Xu took the order and went to do it.

After dark, Xu Youcai called the dead man and handed him a letter written to Liang Xi: "Sending it to the Northeast is of great importance, so Liang Xi must complete it. If you encounter difficulties, you can ask for help from Mr. Ning." Sweep our tail clean and don’t let anyone find out that we are connected to the Northeast.”

"Yes." The dead man responded. After receiving the letter, he left at night, first into the mountains and then into a private village. After daybreak, he went northeast as a businessman.

And the letter Xu You gave has been burned by the dead soldiers... Once these things fall into the hands of others, they will be evidence of crime. The dead soldiers usually memorize the letter first and then burn it until they see it. After receiving the letter, repeat it again.

After the letter was sent, Xu You wrote a battle report to Emperor Jingyuan, reporting the four days of fierce fighting between the soldiers and the soldiers who dug a tunnel in Duchunggou, and also attached a list of the dead and wounded soldiers, so that The courtiers in the capital knew that the war in the northwest was very difficult.

Then he wrote a memorial, asking Emperor Jingyuan for supplies, money for the pensions of the soldiers who died in battle, and new soldiers.

After writing the battle report and memorial, he immediately rushed 800 miles to the capital. Xu You was happy thinking that Emperor Jingyuan was furious after receiving the memorial but had to give him supplies.

But he was not happy for long. On the morning of the third day, he received news that a war horse had been poisoned.

It was just a war horse that died, and there was no need to report it to Xu You. However, because the war horse died after eating the ghost potato, the people below had no choice but to report it.

The soldier said: "A total of ten war horses were fed ghost potatoes, four were poisoned and one died."

He also told the story of how the horse breeders detoxified the horses after they discovered they were poisoned.

Xu You frowned after hearing this: "This ghost potato is still not good. Four horses were actually poisoned. The chance of being poisoned is too high."
