Yin Shi's answer to Han Yu was affirmative: "Of course, if I had discovered anything, I would have taken action against these two traitors long ago, and would not have waited until now. General Han, you must understand how dangerous it is to have two traitors around us."
"I understand. That's why I reported it to the lord without any evidence. I knew how dangerous it was. But the lord didn't completely believe me, so the two traitors took advantage of it. Now it has come to this. If we can't get real evidence, we can't do anything to Chen Chu and Liu Kuan, and we can't even let him get into trouble."
Han Yu looked at Yin Shi again after he finished speaking: "I never knew that Deputy General Yin actually trusted me so much. Even when the lord was doubtful, Deputy General Yin took action because of my words."
How could Yin Shi not understand the meaning behind Han Yu's words? He said half-truthfully, "I trust General Han's character. A man like General Han would not do such a thing of framing others. Besides, General Han has no grudges against Chen Chu and Liu Kuan, so there is no need to frame them with such a thing. In this case, the only possibility is that they are really traitors."
Han Yu did not comment on Yin Shi's words. He believed that Liu Xiu trusted his character, but as for Yin Shi, he just took it as the truth: "Then I have to thank Deputy General Yin for his trust."
"General Han, let's not talk about these. We are colleagues, like grasshoppers on a rope. It's good for you and it's good for me. I have no reason not to trust you. The most important thing now is the matter of these two traitors. Their positions are not low, and they have been working by the master's side for so many years. They have complicated relationships in private and may have accomplices. The harm is too great. Although my assassination plan failed this time, I can't just let it go. I still have to find a way to get rid of these two spies."
Yin Shi couldn't think of any way to deal with these two traitors, so he had to place his hopes on Han Yu. At this time, he had to admit that he could not beat Han Yu in either conspiracy or open conspiracy. If Han Yu had taken action, things would not have turned out to be what they are today, right?
Han Yu shook his head. "Liu Kuan's 'death to prove his innocence' today was really a brilliant move. Although I have reduced the impact he caused, the shock and impact that scene brought to the generals is too great. It cannot be eliminated in a short time. It may cause unpredictable consequences or even cause civil unrest. We should not act rashly for the time being."
"But those two are traitors, spies hidden within our ranks by the enemy. Are we just going to leave them like this?"
"Of course we can't let them go, but Liu Kuan is a man of deep scheming and precautions. Even if we take action, it will be difficult to succeed. Instead, it will give him the opportunity to counterattack, just like what happened just now, which is worse than not taking action. At present, all we can do is to send more people to keep a close eye on these two people, so that they have no chance to contact the enemy and will not leak the news. The rest is to wait and see."
How could Han Yu be willing to accept this? Yin Shi hated traitors, and he would hate them even more. However, he knew that there were things that could be done and things that could not be done. He had already had a rough plan to get rid of the two traitors, but who could have thought that Yin Shi would suddenly interfere? He had to give up his plan.
"This is the only way." Yin Shi naturally understood what Han Yu said. This was the only way now. He would definitely keep a close eye on these two people.
After Chen Chu came out from Liu Xiu's place, he stayed in his own tent for a long time. He was still very nervous. He finally managed to get through the night and went to Liu Kuan's tent early the next morning.
In the past, because Liu Kuan had to avoid suspicion, they could not get too close, so they rarely interacted. But now, there is no need to avoid each other. Anyway, after today, everyone knows that he and Liu Kuan have a close relationship. Instead, he can go to Liu Kuan's tent openly and no longer need to find some secluded place to meet secretly.
"You're here?" Liu Kuan was awake at this time, lying on his side on the bed. Seeing Chen Chu coming over, he sat up with some effort and leaned on the large pillow behind him.
"Are your injuries better?" Chen Chu asked with some concern. After living and dying together under the assassination of Yin Shi, and experiencing what happened yesterday, their relationship has improved and something more has been added. Chen Chu really admires Liu Kuan. People like Liu Kuan are not only smart, but also can be ruthless to himself. What else can't he do?
"Fortunately there is no vital injury, just a little bleeding, it's not a big deal, I just need to recuperate. We are all soldiers, how can we be so delicate! The happiest thing is that the lord is willing to trust me, this makes me happier than anything else. As long as the lord can trust me, it doesn't matter even if I lose my life!" Liu Kuan said as he watched the back of the figure leaving the military camp.
Chen Chu understood what Liu Kuan meant, and continued, "Liu Zuoling, don't say that. You are loyal, how could the lord not believe you? Those rumors before were just traps set by the enemy. How could the lord, who is so wise, not see the truth in them? You should take good care of your wounds. Only when you are well can you go to the battlefield and kill more enemies."
After Chen Chu finished speaking, he saw that the military doctor had already left and there was no one else in the tent. He wanted to say something in a low voice, but was stopped by Liu Kuan's eyes.
Liu Kuan did not say anything, but pointed somewhere in the tent. Chen Chu looked carefully and saw a black shadow flash by. His face changed a little and he looked at Liu Kuan with some worry.
Liu Kuan shook his head and made a calming expression to Chen Chu, but he said, "Brother Chen is right. I was thinking wrong before, so I used such a drastic method to prove my innocence. Now I think it is really irrational. Death can be as heavy as Mount Tai or as light as a feather. As military generals, we should die on the battlefield even if we die. That is the right death. We should not have fallen into the enemy's trap and put the lord in a difficult situation. It is really my fault."
As Liu Kuan said this, he used the water cup to write a line of words on the table: How are things going? Have we got any progress on the things I ordered over there?
Chen Chu shook his head and wiped the water stains on the table. He borrowed Liu Kuan's words and wrote, "No, I've been watched too closely these days. I can't contact anyone outside. I'm afraid of being exposed. Didn't you order us to be cautious? Even if we do nothing, we can't let anyone catch us."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"That being said, the higher-ups are pressing us to find a way to get information about Han Yu's inner residence so that they can take action." After Liu Kuan finished writing, he saw Chen Chu's helpless look and knew that he couldn't rush him any further, otherwise it would only make things worse. He continued writing.
