Han Yu was very busy at the moment. Although he won the battle, there were still many follow-up problems. Not only the aftermath of the casualties, but also the subsequent defense. He had to guard against another attack by the imperial army.

If Zhao Fan is not captured this time, the war will not end. Although the enemy's morale is badly damaged and they should not make any moves in the near future, they still have to be prepared. Han Yu also knew the news that there was such a big fuss in the court and Zhao Fan signed a military order in front of Wang Mang, so it is unlikely that he can hope that Zhao Fan will withdraw his troops.

The most important thing is the spies buried around them. This time, because of Han Yu's strict precautions, the biggest secret was not leaked out, so Zhao Fan fell into the trap. However, the news from their side was still leaked, and it was news that only the top leaders knew. How could Han Yu not care? But the secret guards he formed privately cannot be exposed, and he can't explain the source of the news to Liu Xiu, so he can't prove the accuracy of the news. Han Yu knows Liu Xiu's character. If there is no solid evidence, he will not take action against the thief.

However, although he knew what Liu Xiu might do, Han Yu still did what he should do. Without exposing his own power, he explained the various suspicious points of the spies and asked Liu Xiu to deal with them. One of them was one of the people who instigated Liu Xiu to retreat that day. Another one was hiding deeper, and even Han Yu could only draw a conclusion through reasoning. This person usually kept a low profile, and sometimes some of his remarks supported Han Yu's approach. This was a completely opposite style from the other spy, and he was quite trusted by Liu Xiu. If Han Yu had not investigated carefully, he would have discovered the suspicious points of this person and almost let him escape.

"Xiu Qi, do you have any evidence for what you said? You can't just rely on your own guesses, it's easy to wrongly accuse people. They have both been with me for a long time and have come through the most difficult period at the beginning. If you say Chen Chu has more suspicious points, I can still believe him, but Liu Kuan is normal except for the one suspicious point you mentioned, and that suspicious point may also be a coincidence. After all, it is normal for him to do so under the circumstances at that time. It would be too far-fetched for us to say that he is a spy lurking around us."

As expected, Liu Xiu did not really believe Han Yu's words. Perhaps for some reasons, he subconsciously did not want to believe it. Although Han Yu took the greatest credit for the victory this time, which made him rely on him more, these cannot be generalized. Before, Liu Xiu trusted Liu Kuan even more than Han Yu, and Liu Kuan and Liu Xiu were distant relatives.

"My lord, if it were any other time, I would have suspected them and would not have brought them to you. But now is an emergency. If the two of them are really spies of the enemy, or at least have been bribed by the court, they are a huge threat to us. Especially after this battle, Zhao Fan will definitely not resign himself to this. In addition, he has signed a military order in front of Mang Ze, so he has no way to retreat and will definitely try every means to counterattack. It is too dangerous to keep such suspicious people around!"

Han Yu's words were sincere and sincere. As subordinates, they were lucky to have met such a master who was nostalgic. Since Liu Xiu could treat these two people like this, he would do the same to himself. However, Han Yu felt depressed and helpless because he was soft-hearted at this critical moment.

"Xiu Qi, you are too suspicious. I know you mean well, but without evidence I will not take action against my loyal subordinates. This goes against my principles and bottom line. Even though this is an extraordinary period, if you are worried, I will transfer Chen Chu to a less important position. This way, even if it is as you expected, it will not cause any major problems. What do you think?"

Liu Xiu could not really deal with that person as Han Yu said, nor did he want to have an unpleasant relationship with Han Yu because of this matter. He could only think of a compromise, which was only aimed at Chen Chu, who had too many suspicious points. He did not mention Liu Kuan, and it was obvious that he still did not believe that Liu Kuan would do so. After all, Liu Xiu thought it was inappropriate to doubt a subordinate whom he trusted because of such an unsuspicious point.

Liu Xiu did not suspect that Han Yu was targeting these two people out of personal gain. Han Yu was different from Yin Shi. He was not that kind of person. Even if he was really dissatisfied with these two people, he would use open means instead of using such methods secretly. Liu Xiu also did not know that Han Yu's subordinates were still training and comforting him. He just thought that Han Yu was too suspicious.

Han Yu knew that it was impossible to persuade Liu Xiu. No matter how much he said, it would be in vain. After all, there were some things that he could not reveal to Liu Xiu. This was his last secret, the trump card to keep his family safe. He could not reveal it, so he did not plan to continue. Han Yu was never a blindly loyal person. His loyalty to Liu Xiu was limited. Therefore, he could only persuade Liu Xiu to stop here. If Liu Xiu suspected that he had other intentions, he would be wronged. As for the two traitors, he was the only one who was secretly on guard.

"Since the lord is so determined, I cannot object. However, even if the lord does not take any action against them, he should still be on guard against them. If it is a confidential matter, try not to let these two know. It is better to be careful!"

Han Yu's request was not excessive, and it was also for the sake of the overall situation. Liu Xiu had no reason to refuse: "Xiu Qi, don't worry, I will."

Yin Shi and Liu Kuan came together to discuss something with Liu Xiu, and happened to meet Han Yu coming out of Liu Xiu's tent. Yin Shi's eyes flashed, and he looked at Han Yu with a complicated look, then he entered the tent with Liu Kuan. Liu Kuan saw it, but did not show any emotion on his face, and just followed Yin Shi.

Just as Liu Xiucai was thinking about the problems of Chen Chu and Liu Kuan, he saw Yin Shi and Liu Kuan come in together. There was a trace of unnaturalness on their faces, which disappeared quickly. However, Yin Shi and Liu Kuan were both observant people. They noticed Liu Xiu's reaction. Although they couldn't guess why, Han Yu had just walked out of Liu Xiu's tent, so perhaps this had something to do with Han Yu.

Yin Shi has always been a conspiracy theorist. He thought that Han Yu might have said something bad about him in front of Liu Xiu, or took the opportunity to flatter him, otherwise why would Liu Xiu react like that when he saw them come in? Yin Shi did not think of Liu Kuan as the problem at all, just because Liu Kuan was usually considered a good guy and had no grudges against Han Yu.

Liu Kuan thought differently. His identity was "special" and it concerned the safety of his family's lives. He was particularly sensitive to such things. Considering some abnormalities he had felt before, his eyes narrowed slightly and a certain light flashed in his eyes. Facing Liu Xiu's obscure gaze and thoughtful expression, his face became more frank and loyal.
