Chapter 205 Bandit Raid (4)

Li Xun said coldly: "How can good and evil be determined and judged by individuals? In your eyes, those who are killed are evil people and damn people, but in the eyes of their families, aren't you also evil people and enemies? If one day the relatives of the person you killed seek revenge on you, what should you do? And... If your mother has a spirit, I am afraid she would never want to see you reach this point today."

Ouyangli lowered his head, and felt deeply ashamed and sad. He lost his father at a young age and had no impression of his father. However, his mother's long-term teaching words still echoed in his ears. If she knew what she was doing now, she would definitely be very sad.

Li Xun glanced at Ouyang Li, and there was not much. After all, everyone has their own destiny and story. Just as he said just now, Ouyang Li's good and evil, right and wrong, will not easily make conclusions, nor will he stand on the commanding heights of nobleness and morality and judge and punish him. He does not have this qualification.

"Ouyangli, what are you going to do?"

Ouyang Li said, "That's what I plan. You pretend not to know anything and do whatever you should do. They are going to use poison in the meal tomorrow morning. It's the kind that will only occur in two or three days. I will pack the poison. After you have breakfast, the leader Lao Meng will definitely relax his vigilance. I will inquire again and I should be able to ask something out of him."

"This plan is pretty good, I'll consider it!"

Li Xun frowned. He said so, but he didn't agree with doing this in his heart. He was not familiar with Ouyangli at all, but had a relationship with him. How could he talk about trust? It was simply a joke to hand over his own fortune and life to him, along with the lives of hundreds of people.

Ouyang Li saw the hesitation on Li Xun's face and sighed in his heart, but he didn't say much. It was indeed impossible for him to have little contact with Li Xun, so it was indeed impossible for the other party to trust him completely.

Ouyang Li whispered, "If my benefactor doesn't agree with this plan, what will it do?"

Although he was not familiar with Ouyang, the other party still seemed very sincere, not as if he was deceiving himself. Li Xun thought about it and did not lie to him. To be honest, "I will ask someone to discuss it. If they don't agree, I'm afraid they will arrest you directly. If you torture it, you may be able to find out why."

Ouyang Li shook his head: "We don't know each other, we usually do our own things. The tasks are taken over by intermediaries, and they are usually used by pseudonyms. No one knows who is in the background. The middleman in this operation is Lao Meng, who is the focus, but this person is extremely strong and has a mysterious origin. Even if you catch him, you may not be able to get any information from this person."

Li Xun nodded, but remained silent.

Seeing that Li Xun refused to express his opinion for a long time, Ouyang Li sighed and had to say goodbye and leave.

After Ouyangli left, Li Xun immediately pushed open the door. Lei Wanhai, who was standing outside, saw him, said in surprise: "General, why haven't you been sleeping late at night?"

Li Xun did not answer Lei Wanhai's question and ordered: "Go and wake Mr. Fan and bring him to my room. I have something to discuss with him."

"Ah! Now?"

If there is something that cannot be discussed until dawn, I have to discuss it late at night? It is only a matter of time before dawn.

“Now, immediately.”

Li Xun frowned and turned around and closed the door heavily. He was woken up so late, and was shocked and in a very bad mood. Li Xun, who has always smiled at others, has rarely turned black.

Seeing that Li Xun had a temper, Lei Wanhai dared not delay it. He hurried to Fan Zhongyun and forced him to Li Xun's room.

"I said Li Xun, what's the matter that I can't be said tomorrow? I have to force me here so late?"

Fan Zhongyun said unhappily while yawning.

"You still have the heart to sleep, do you know, I almost lost my life."

Li Xun was a little dissatisfied with Fan Zhongyun's attitude, and then told him what happened.

Fan Zhongyun's face did not change at all.

Li Xun glanced at him and said in surprise: "Why didn't you react at all?"

Fan Zhongyun smiled and said, "Shan Qiu has already doubted them. After dinner, he consulted me and made a decision. Before dawn, he would arrest all the people and interrogate them."

Li Xun sat down calmly. Jiang Daxiong had obviously received a reminder from Shan Qiu. Fan Zhongyun also knew about it, but he was kept in the dark. Although he was deeply in line with them on weekdays, he believed in their abilities and dared to delegate power to let them do things, but no matter what, he was also the chief official. Do they still have a little respect for themselves when they do this?

Fan Zhongyun glanced at Li Xun, and saw that he looked bad, and whispered: "Don't speculate. Shan Qiu did this for your own good." Li Xun looked cold and said nothing.

Fan Zhongyun continued: "Most of the people in this team are veterans brought by Dan Qiu. Although you are the leader of the army, you have no prestige and Dan Qiu is just suspicious of them. If you tell you in advance, what decision will you make? If you catch it correctly, there is nothing to say. If you catch it wrong and want a good person, your face will be a bit too big. What will the people below view you? So don't think too much. Besides, I will tell Dan Qiu not to tell you for the time being."

After hearing Fan Zhongyun's explanation, Li Xun's cold face suddenly improved a lot, and he said, "Although I, Li Xun, have no talent, but I have a responsibility. If I really caught the wrong person, how could I let Dan Qiu be blamed for me?"

"Do not be confused about small things and pay close attention to big things. This is the skill of the best. No matter how good the personal relationship between Shan Qiu and you is, in fact, you are in a superior and subordinate relationship. It's nothing to call your brothers secretly. If this is the case on the surface, how should you establish prestige in front of others?"

Li Xun remained silent, but in his heart, he felt that Fan Zhongyun's words were very reasonable.

Then, Li Xun told Ouyangli about it: "I think Ouyangli's plan is very good. You can try it out. What do you think?"

“There is no need for that at all.”

Fan Zhongyun sneered and said, "We have 500 elite soldiers around us, and we are in the mainland. As long as we are careful, who can do what we do? If you are worried, when you arrive in Huizhou, you might as well take out your scepter and let the Huizhou military chief send some troops to escort and defend."

Li Xun said: "There are five hundred soldiers around me, and I have nothing to be afraid of. I just want to figure out who wants to harm me."

"That's even less necessary."

Fan Zhongyun said: "We are very short of time and don't have so much spare time here. Besides, even if you find out the person behind you, what can you do? Can't you even get the matter to the emperor? You have to know that there are many ministers who are dissatisfied with the court about your appointment as the governor of Wuzhou. If you really make the matter big, those people will immediately take this opportunity to completely open up the matter. In the end, you may be able to return to Fengjing to assist in investigating the case. At that time, your position as governor of Wuzhou..."

Li Xun nodded, listened to Fan Zhongyun's analysis, agreed and said, "It's almost dawn, Dan Qiu is about to take action."
