That night, the horse leaped on the big tent.

The lights were faintly, and the atmosphere in the tent seemed a bit solemn. Ma Yue was leaning against the tiger skin cushion and closed his eyes to rest. Jia Xu, Guo Tu, Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang and Ma Teng held their breath and stood in the tent in a solemn manner. Ma Yue did not speak, and no one dared to break the silence first. Even if Ma Teng was the uncle of the Ma Yue tribe, he couldn't help but feel nervous at this time.

"Puchi~"

The lantern twist of the sheep oil lamp suddenly made a light sound. Ma Yue's slightly closed eyes had opened at some point. His bright eyes were concentrating on Guo Tu for a moment, as if he had been looking at Guo Tu like this all the time. Guo Tu's heart trembled, and his legs softened and fell to the ground.

"Public Ze~~" Ma Yue said coldly, "I am very disappointed."

Guo Tu's shoulders trembled slightly and he whispered: "Tu failed to observe and almost missed the lord's affairs. Please punish him."

Ma Yue remained silent, and Guo Tu's heart hanged.

Seeing Ma Yue's expression was unhesitant, Pei Yuanshao hurriedly knelt down and whispered: "Boqi, this time Fang Yue led the army to rebel without authorization is not the fault of Mr. Guo Tu~~"

"Yuan Shao!" Ma Yue shouted and stopped Pei Yuanshao and said, "You don't have to take the responsibility on yourself!"

Pei Yuanshao was silent, and Guo Tu hurriedly stepped forward for several steps, and said sincerely: "Please punish the lord."

"Punishment? Can punishment solve the problem? It can eliminate Fang Yue's rebellion and make nothing happen invisible," Ma Yue said coldly, "It is not yet time to hold the responsibility accountable. The most urgent task is to eliminate the greater critical crisis as soon as possible."

"Um?"

“A bigger crisis!?”

Pei Yuanshao, Ma Teng and Zhou Cang looked at each other.

Jia Xu took a breath and asked Guo Tu in a harmonious manner: "Brother Gongze, the lord's meaning is ~~ After the princess came to the old camp, who else did she have private contact with except General Fang Yue?"

Guo Tu tried his best to recall for a moment and replied affirmatively: "After the Princess came down to the old camp, he lived in the camp. His daily life was taken care of by the eldest lady and the second lady. Except for the villain who had contact with His Royal Highness the Princess when he went to the Sanshili Pavilion to greet him, the other civil officials and generals had no contact with the princess until the Xianbei army attacked~~"

Ma Yue said: "I have already known about the attack on the Xianbei."

"Yes." Guo Tu responded, and then said, "In the Battle of Wuyuan, the princess gave Fang Yue's brave performance with her own eyes on the watchtower. After our army withdrew its troops and returned to the camp, the princess summoned Fang Yue alone in the tent. The villain thought that the princess just wanted to reward her, but she really didn't know~~ I really didn't know~~"

"Since that's the case, things are much simpler." Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ma Yue, "Lord, there is only one problem left now, that is, how to deal with Fang Yue?"

"That's more important." Zhou Cang said in a slut, "Of course it must be killed."

Jia Xu asked with a smile: "Why do you have to kill?"

"Uh~~" Zhou Cang took a breath and asked without thinking, "Fang Yue has no faith and no righteousness. He led his army to betray his lord, which is like a rebellion. How can he kill him?"

Jia Xu said again: "What if Fang Yue was sent troops under the order?"

"According to the order?" Zhou Cang was confused when he heard it, "Where did the imperial edict come from?"

"The princess can falsely pass the imperial edict." Jia Xu said, "It is true that the king is the leader of the minister. Even if Fang Yue knew that the princess was just falsely pass the imperial edict, he, as a Han minister, could not refuse to obey it. Otherwise, he would despise the court and blaspheme the dignity of the royal family."

After Jia Xu's words were made, it was fine for Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, the two reckless men, but Ma Teng and Guo Tu suddenly changed their expressions, fearing that Ma Yue would be furious when they heard them. Jia Xu's words were clearly expelling Fang Yue. The implicit meaning of Jia Xu's words was that Fang Yue was just fulfilling his duties as a minister, not betrayal and infringing on the superiors.

As for despising the court and blaspheming the royal dignity, it is almost a sarcasm to Ma Yue. Ma Yue beats the princess, and imprisoning the court, and which one is not despising the royal dignity? According to Jia Xu's remarks, Ma Yue is simply a traitor. Wouldn't everyone be punished?

But beyond Guo Tu and Ma Teng's expectations, Ma Yue was not angry.

Because Ma Yue knew that Jia Xu had no sarcasm, he was just reminding himself in a vague way that a person like Fang Yue could not solve the problem with the word "kill". Although the Han Dynasty has declined and its demise is inevitable, it will take some time for scholars all over the world to accept this reality.

After all, there are only a few people who are well-versed in the world who see through the world. In the world, there are still more pedantic and loyal people like Fang Yue, Ju Su, and Guan Ning! It is easy to kill these people, but what about after killing them? It will inevitably lead to the withering of talents and greatly hurt the vitality of the Han people.

If Ma Yue only wants to settle down in a corner and guard Hetao as a free warlord, he can kill Fang Yue and make trouble. Hetao is not as easy as the Central Plains, so it is relatively simple to manage! The word "kill" is enough to solve all problems. But if Ma Yue has greater ambitions, he must understand that if he wants to enter the Central Plains, it is far from enough to rely on the word "kill".

While Ma Yue was thinking, Jia Xu suddenly said, "Lord, Xu has a suggestion."

"speak."

Jia Xu said: "Fang Yue can defeat 70,000 Xianbei cavalry in Wuyuan with 20,000 cavalry and infantry, and defeated the Xianbei people in a dignified and head-on confrontation. The military talent of this person is no longer questionable. Why don't the lord take Fang Yue as the main general and let him lead a large army to expedition to the desert?"

"What!"

"What are the jokes about the military advisor, let Fang Yue lead his troops to expedition to the desert?"

"What if Fang Yue leads his army to rebel again?"

"Yes, this proposal is definitely not possible."

As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang flatly opposed it.

Jia Xu was not at all unhappy because of Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang's fierce opposition. He continued: "Although Fang Yue, Ju Su, Guan Ning and others were pedantic, these pedantic people had one advantage, that is, they lack ambition! In other words, even if Fang Yue conquered the desert, he would never do the matter of holding troops and splitting the soil and becoming a marquis."

Ma Teng said: "Even if Fang Yue has no ambition, what if an imperial edict is delivered today, wouldn't he still lead the army to surrender?"

"General Ma Teng asked well." Jia Xu said, "This is the key to the problem. The army expedition to the desert can be the main general, but the main general who leads the troops is not Fang Yue!"

"Military advisor, I've told you to be confused." Zhou Cang was confused when he heard it and scratched his head, "Sometimes he said that Fang Yue was the main general, and then sometimes he said that the commander general was not Fang Yue. Isn't this a contradictory thing?"

Jia Xu smiled and refused to answer.

Zhou Cang was about to ask again, but Ma Yue suddenly stretched out his hand and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Cang obeys the order!"

"The last one will be there."

Zhou Cang instinctively took a step forward and stood straight in front of Ma Yue. Ma Yue looked at Zhou Cang like a torch and said in a deep voice: "You are the main general, leading five thousand Wuhuan wolf cavalry, nine thousand Yuezhi came to the cavalry to expedition to the desert. The army was only allowed to carry dry food for ten days, and send troops in three days, and there must be no mistakes."

"Avoid the order!" Zhou Cang first responded to the promise, then quickly came to his senses and said, "Ah? This lord, this ~~ expedition to the desert is of great importance, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the last general to be competent."

"I said you can do it." Ma Yue said without any doubt, "Do you still dare to disobey?"

Zhou Cang said panic: "I dare not."

"Why are you still standing there?" Ma Yue shouted, "Wait for me to invite you to drink Ma's milk wine?"

Zhou Cang hurriedly bowed and then fled in panic.

The night is as dark as ink.

Two soldiers with tiger backs and bear waists rushed Fang Yue to a tent. Fang Yue looked around but saw that the fields were pitch black, with only two dark torches inserted ten steps away, igniting a flash of light and dark fire, illuminating the vicinity of the tent like a power world underground, revealing an inexplicable gloom.

"Get in!"

The two soldiers kicked Fang Yue hard on the back. Fang Yue staggered into the tent, and saw the light of fire in the tent, and Ma Yue, with a frosty face, was sitting proudly in the tent. Behind Ma Yue was the evil man Dian Wei, who looked like a ghost, stood behind Ma Yue. Dian Wei's hideous face seemed particularly gloomy at this time.

Fang Yue fell to the ground with his high head lowered, and he whispered: "See General."

"Fang Yue!" Ma Yue shouted in a deep voice, "Do you know your guilt?"

Fang Yue looked gloomy and sighed: "I know that the death penalty is inevitable, so I would rather die."

"Since that's the case~~" Ma Yue stood up suddenly, his eyes showing murderous intent, "I will fulfill your wishes."

Fang Yue took off his helmet, then closed his eyes and leaned forward slightly, waiting for death.

"Clang~~"
