“Yes, the Bulwark Duke summoned Lord Zhu as soon as he returned to the general’s residence.”
Lord Zhu was the governor of Nanling Pass. If he summoned him at this time, it couldn’t be that he wanted him to help fight the war. It could only be because of the case file which accused General Gao of colluding with the enemy and committing treason.
Meng Wu waved his hand and asked them to leave.
When only the father and son were left in the tent, Meng Shaoyuan said angrily, “Father, we can’t sit still and wait for death anymore. If Duke Song finds out what happened back then..
“It’s the Retired Emperor who couldn’t tolerate meritorious officials, and deliberately fabricated evidence to frame him.” Meng Wu interrupted him in a low voice. “If he wants to investigate, let him investigate. What happened back then was instigated by the Retired Emperor. Those who know the truth have long turned into dust with the Gao family. I don’t believe he can find anything.”
“Then we won’t do anything?” Meng Shaoyuan couldn’t understand why his father had become so cautious as soon as Song Jingchen arrived.
Seeing through his thoughts, Meng Wu warned, “It’s better to be quiet than to move. Don’t panic and give others something to use against you.” Meng Shaoyuan clenched his fists. “Then my previous suggestion…”
“Let me think about it.” Meng Wu knocked on the desk. “It’s getting late. Go back first.”
Meng Shaoyuan lowered his eyes. “Yes.”
When he returned to his tent, Meng Shaoyuan still had nowhere to vent his anger.
Meng Wu had the heart but not the guts. However, he was different. He had ambition and guts. He did not want to guard a godforsaken place like Nanling Pass for the rest of his life.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He slapped the table in front of him and instructed loudly, “Get Liu Yang to see me.”
The soldiers guarding outside the tent agreed and left.
Soon, Liu Yang, who had appeared many days ago, lifted the curtain and entered. “Young General, are you looking for me?”
Meng Shaoyuan glanced at him and asked, “How’s your recovery?”
Meng Shaoyuan was the one who brought Liu Yang up. Of course, he would not foolishly think that he was concerned about her. He said respectfully, “I’m fine now.”
Meng Shaoyuan nodded in satisfaction. “Go and bring me Liu Jinbao.” He paused and revealed a devilish smile. “You should know what to do.”
Liu Yang was shocked. “This…”
Others might not know, but he had been by Meng Shaoyuan’s side for so long that he knew some of his hobbies very well. Meng Shaoyuan had a homosexual fetish and liked to play with boys.
In the past, he was the one who helped send the people Meng Shaoyuan liked to his bed.
Thinking of Liu Jinbao’s appearance, it wasn’t strange.
The reason why he hesitated was not because he was worried about Liu Jinbao. Liu Jinbao had deliberately hit him hard, Liu Yang wished he could kill him to vent his anger.
However, they had always done that kind of thing outside the military camp in the past. Now that there were many people in the military camp and there were nobles from Chang’an around, if the matter was exposed..
“Why? You can’t do it?” Meng Shaoyuan narrowed his eyes.
Liu Yang quickly explained, “I’m just worried that someone will find out that Liu Jinbao is missing and report it to the higher-ups. If they find out it’s related to the Young General, it will affect your reputation.”
Every soldier’s name was registered. If someone disappeared for no reason, they would definitely have to investigate.
Meng Shaoyuan licked his lips and sneered. “Hmph, you woke up in the middle of the night and realized that someone was trying to escape from the military camp. You chased after them and didn’t want to accidentally kill them. It’s just killing a deserter. What does it matter?”
However, there had to be a corpse.
Liu Yang was stunned and instantly understood what Meng Shaoyuan meant.
He was going to kill Liu Jinbao after using him!
“Young General is right. I understand what to do.”
The night was as dark and silent as water. The gentle breeze finally took away some of the heat in the day. The soldiers, who had been tired for the entire day, also fell asleep.
The two black shadows avoided the patrols and shuttled between the various tents. In the end, they stopped at one of the tents.
Liu Yang looked at the person behind him and asked softly, “Are you sure he’s sleeping in the innermost bed?”
Another person replied, “It’s absolutely true. He brought his own appliances.
They’re different from others. I can recognize them at a glance.”
Although Liu Jinbao was no longer doted on in the Liu family after Song Jiayue gave birth to a son, he was once the golden goose that Old Master Liu doted on. Any ornament in his room was worth a lot of money.
He also knew the importance of silver, so when he left home, he almost emptied his courtyard.
Well, he didn’t empty it because the rest were all big items. He couldn’t move them.
With money in his hands, he was not someone who would suffer. He had no choice in terms of food, so he naturally had to buy good appliances. In any case, as long as there were no problems after checking, this was allowed in the military..
