Chapter 244 Superfluous
Ye Qingyu saw so many armored and fierce-looking soldiers with swords pouring in at once, and asked about Lu Hao's situation.

Only then did we understand how important Lu Hao was in the minds of these soldiers.

"The Prime Minister is drinking upstairs. I wonder what the generals want to do with him?"

Ye Qingyu responded with a smile.

"Really? You didn't lie to us?"

"Is there nothing wrong with you, Prime Minister?"

"We want to meet the Prime Minister, please lead the way!"

"..."

The four generals obviously wanted to determine Lu Hao's life or death.

After all, if Lu Hao was killed, it was most likely Dugu Shenyong did it.

Because Dugu Shenyong tried to tease the four of them, but they all refused. Therefore, the four of them had the intuition that Dugu Shenyong had poisoned Lu Hao.

If Lu Hao was really poisoned, they would definitely lead their troops into the Hou Mansion immediately and destroy Dugu Shenyong.

After all, the military power of the entire imperial city is still in their hands.

If they don't kill Dugu Shenyong, once he comes to power, he will definitely settle old scores with them.

Therefore, it is better to strike first and take this opportunity to bring down Dugu Shenyong.

Ye Qingyu led the four generals upstairs and directly into the luxurious private room.

When they saw that Lu Hao was well, they immediately felt relieved and stepped forward to kneel down at the same time.

"The general will pay homage to the Prime Minister!"

The four generals saluted respectfully.

"Four generals, please wake up! Why are you here?"

Lu Hao asked knowingly.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, there are reports in the Imperial Capital that the Prime Minister has been poisoned and murdered. We are worried about the Prime Minister's safety, so we came over to take a look. Now that we see that the Prime Minister is fine, I think it is a rumor deliberately spread by someone, and we want to shake it. The hearts of the people in the imperial capital.”

General Fan explained.

"Oh! Is there such a thing? I wonder who is rumored to be poisoning the truth?"

Lu Hao asked with a smile.

"This...this is definitely a rumor and cannot be trusted!"

General Fan replied with a grimace.

"It's okay. Isn't the truth fine now? The truth just wants to know who is going to poison me?"

Lu Hao asked again.

"The rumors outside are... that it's Dugu Shenyong!"

General Fan gritted his teeth and said.

"Master Hou? How could it be Master Hou? The truth is that Master Hou is the savior. How could Master Hou harm the truth? Someone must be trying to sow discord."

Lu Hao smiled calmly.

"Now it seems that there are definitely rumors deliberately released by someone behind the scenes, just to drive a wedge between the Prime Minister and the Marquis."

General Hu interjected.

"I didn't expect the person behind the scenes to be so vicious. It's really deplorable!"

General Ling also echoed.

"Okay, now that we're all here, let's stay and have a drink with me."

Lu Hao said with a smile.

Next, the four generals and Lu Hao had a good drink in Tianyin Pavilion, which was very pleasant.

……

As soon as Dugu Shenyong and his son returned to the Hou Mansion, they received the news that the prime minister had been poisoned and murdered.

What he didn't expect was that the person who poisoned Lu Hao was actually himself, and the four generals guarding the imperial city urgently mobilized their troops and rushed to the Tianyin Pavilion where the incident occurred.

The most important thing is that this matter has spread in the military camp.

"Feng'er, tell me honestly, did you send someone to poison me?"

Dugu Shenyong thought that his son had already acted without telling him,

"Dad, I didn't, absolutely not! Someone must have deliberately framed this matter on us."

Dugu Feng replied with a grimace. "If not you, then who?"

Dugu Shenyong was also a little confused.

"If the Prime Minister dies, should we immediately find a way to control the imperial city?"

Dugu Feng was secretly happy.

"Control the Imperial City? If Lu Hao dies now, the four generals will definitely attack us, and we may have no choice but to flee for our lives first."

Dugu Shenyong said in a deep voice.

Even if Lu Hao is to be poisoned, he must be prepared. How can he control the imperial city and the imperial capital now so suddenly?

Especially the four generals will definitely send people to hunt them down. The plan for now is to escape to the Yanshan Camp.

"Dad, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I'm going to Yanshan Camp to mobilize troops."

Dugu Feng was very excited.

"You brat, if Lu Hao is really dead, we don't even have a chance to mobilize our troops now. You should quickly send someone to Tianyin Pavilion to see if Lu Hao was really poisoned?"

Dugu Shenyong was really pissed off by this son.

"Yes, yes, we should first confirm whether Lu Hao is dead?"

Dugu Feng also reacted.

At this time, a spy embedded in the Guards sent information.

"What? Lu Hao is not dead? Still drinking with the four generals?"

Dugu Feng was immediately dumbfounded.

"It's great that Lu Hao is not dead. I want to go see him."

Dugu Shenyong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Lu Hao was not dead, Dugu Shenyong naturally went over to clarify the rumors outside so as not to cause any suspicion among Lu Hao.

After a while, Dugu Shenyong also arrived at Tianyin Pavilion.

When Lu Hao learned that the Marquis was coming, he asked the four generals to leave first and immediately investigated where the rumors came from.I went to see Mr. Hou and his son.

"Master Marquis, Lord Dugu, why are you here too?"

Lu Hao smiled and walked into another private room.

"Master Xiang, it's great that you're okay!"

Dugu Shen bravely stepped forward, his excitement beyond words.

"Master Hou, there are only rumors out there that I have been killed. Isn't it good for you to see the truth?"

Lu Hao deliberately turned around to indicate that he was fine.

"I wonder who is behind the scenes? There are rumors that I want to harm the prime minister. It's really deplorable!"

Dugu Shen said with courage.

"Master Marquis, the man behind the scenes, didn't expect that I was also one of the Marquis's. How could the Marquis harm me? I originally thought that I could sow discord, but I didn't know that this was superfluous."

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

"Master Xiang, do you know who is behind the scenes?"

Dugu Feng interjected and asked.

"Master Dugu, we have learned the truth. This news comes from the Guards and the City Defense Army. We have ordered four generals to go down and investigate. News should come soon."

Lu Hao responded.

There must be a starting point for the origin of such rumors, and this point is the breakthrough.

If Uncle Nine Emperors learned that Lu Hao was not dead, he would definitely silence those who spread rumors in the military camp.

However, he thought that since Lu Hao was dead, the four generals would definitely start a war with Dugu Shenyong, so he simply ignored the matter.

When the four generals learned that Lu Hao was not dead, they immediately began to investigate the source of the rumors and arrested several people who spread the rumors.

"If we catch the person behind the scenes, I will have his family confiscated and his family exterminated!"

Dugu Shenyong's murderous intention suddenly appeared.

"The person behind this is vicious and vicious, intending to drive a wedge between the truth and the Marquis. There must be some big conspiracy, and we have to guard against it!"

Lu Hao suddenly sighed.

Dugu Shenyong also felt the same way. He nodded slightly and said, "The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the open. The Prime Minister must be careful about the tricks of the people behind the scenes."
