Kill a villain and replace him with a tiger general. This business will make a lot of money.

Gu Qing is willing to pay a certain price for it. Adults must weigh the pros and cons before doing something. Gu Qing carefully weighed it before killing Tian Zhen. The troubles and consequences that killing Tian Zhen may bring about are much more serious than those of killing Tian Zhen.

After weighing the benefits of Li Siye, a powerful general, Gu Qing finally decided to kill Tian Zhen.

An army of thousands is easy to obtain, but a general is difficult to find.

Gu Qing's journey is across the stars and the sea, and having such a general to serve him for several years is enough to offset the temporary trouble and consequences that killing Tian Zhen will bring to him.

Li Siye felt grateful for Gu Qing's kindness in getting rid of his inner demons, and respectfully resigned.

Gu Qing sat alone in the handsome tent, quietly waiting for trouble to come to him with a smile on his face.

An hour later, the bodyguard came to report and asked for a meeting outside the gate of Lingcheng's camp. Gu Qing sighed, and sure enough he came anyway.

The Zhonglang General was considered a middle-ranking officer. Killing a Zhonglang General would be a big deal for the Anxi Protectorate, and it was expected that Bian Lingcheng would be alarmed.

He ordered his personal guards to lead Bian Lingcheng into the commander's tent. After a long time, an angry Bian Lingcheng entered the commander's tent. He saw Gu Qingzheng sitting alone on the throne with a sullen face, staring at him with cold eyes. Bian Lingcheng couldn't help but feel angry.

He was stunned for a moment, and the momentum that was originally surging forward to summon the troops to punish him couldn't help but stagnate.

While Bian Lingcheng was stunned, Gu Qing slammed the table and shouted: "Bian Supervisor, I was going to find you, but I didn't expect you to come to the door yourself!"

Bian Lingcheng was so frightened that he trembled all over, and then said angrily: "What does the Marquis want from me?"

Gu Qing sneered: "Border Inspector, what a good thing you have done! You colluded with Shule Town Tianzhen to frame the general of the Anxi Army. You reprimanded Zhongliang based on some false accusations without evidence, and blocked General Zhongliang's opportunity to be promoted, causing the country to

Good talents are lost, generals are treated unfairly, Anxi officers and soldiers are in turmoil, and the resentment in the army is skyrocketing. Border supervisor, this is all your fault! I would like to ask the border supervisor whether you are a spy sent by the enemy on purpose.

Disturbing the morale of our Anxi Army, suppressing the morale of our army, and making the enemy look proud?"

Bian Lingcheng was furious, then frightened, and his voice became even shriller with anxiety: "Why did the Marquis say this! Why did he say this! What a huge injustice! Who did this slave frame? How did this slave become a spy?"

There is no basis for what you say, Lord Marquis, show us the evidence!"

Gu Qing snapped out a confession with a red stamp on it, and sneered: "You still want to quibble? Here is the confession Tian Zhen recorded before he was sentenced! It explains in detail how he framed Li Siye in Shule Town and how he secretly

He made a false accusation to the border supervisors, and the border supervisors severely reprimanded Li Siye without asking any questions. Li Siye has made countless military achievements over the years, and every opportunity for promotion has been blocked by the border supervisors. These are all facts.

According to what can be verified, what did the border supervisors say?"

Bian Lingcheng grabbed the confession and read it quickly, and then said with surprise and anger: "This is a trap set up by Tian Zhen! If you don't believe it, let him confront the slave. How could the slave have colluded with a small lieutenant general? This is what the Marquis wants to do."

This slave refuses to accept the sin and refuses to admit it!"

Gu Qing said coldly: "Tian Zhen committed a heinous crime and has been ordered to be beheaded in public by me. If the border guards want to confront Tian Zhen, I can only send you down to find him."

Bian Lingcheng was caught off guard by Gu Qing's accusation. He suddenly calmed down and immediately understood that it was Gu Qing's evildoer who complained first. He was first caught off guard and seized the moral high ground, and then condescendingly fabricated his charges. The so-called "unrest in military morale" and "framing of loyalty"

"This is the commanding heights that Gu Qing seized first. With these two reasons, it will be much easier to mercilessly blame Bian Lingcheng one after another.

It's really despicable. Only treacherous ministers like them would dare to do these tricks. In the eyes of upright and loyal ministers, these are vile tricks and they have never been disdained to be used. I didn't expect that the Marquis would actually use them on him.

This guy is definitely not a kind person!

He's a bad guy!

Bian Lingcheng made a conclusion for Gu Qing in his mind without hesitation.

When he first entered the commander's tent, he was thrown into a panic by Gu Qing's preemptive strike. At this moment, Bian Lingcheng finally calmed down and was calm and even smiled.

"Master Hou, Master Hou, haha, you really took great pains to start such a big battle to kill a Tian Zhen, and you didn't even hesitate to involve your slaves. Why are you doing this?"

Seeing that he had calmed down, Gu Qing couldn't help but sigh secretly in disappointment.

It's a pity that I didn't fall for it. It seems that I really don't have the talent to be a bad guy. I still need more practice in framing and killing.

It was useless to speak harshly. Gu Qing put on a calm expression and said calmly: "The border supervisor is calm, haha, it seems that you and I have nothing to say. I will sort out Tian Zhen's charges and submit them to Chang'an together with the evidence of his illegality. Please

Your Majesty, as for the role played by the Border Patrol Army..."

Halfway through his words, Gu Qing deliberately stopped.

Bian Lingcheng was worried.

When anything comes before the emperor, it is no longer a matter of right and wrong. The emperor will not seriously care about right and wrong. What the emperor cares about is the pros and cons. The pros and cons of both sides in the fight. Does it matter who is who? Who is more useful?

That's what matters.

Perhaps the emperor will not take sides this time and give up on each side, but Gu Qing cannot make a habit of reporting to the emperor of Chang'an every time.

No matter how much the emperor trusts Bian Lingcheng, if Gu Qing says bad things about him every now and then, over time, the emperor will probably doubt whether he can be used anymore. If Gu Qing is more vicious and simply marries Gao Xianzhi,

If they form an alliance and jointly participate in his impeachment, the emperor will probably become more suspicious of him. After all, everyone's words make money, but their bones are destroyed...

Bian Lingcheng made a quick decision in his heart.

He had to endure it this time and couldn't let Gu Qing go to the hospital. Killing a Tian Zhen was just a trivial matter to him. Originally, he came to the camp today to increase his sense of presence and accused Gu Qing of killing the border general without killing him.

This is a bad behavior in the eyes of his supervisor.

But he didn't expect that Gu Qing, the villain, complained first and gathered momentum to implicat him preemptively. Since he had miscalculated, he had to admit his defeat. Bian Lingcheng did not have to sacrifice his own future for the already dead Tian Zhen.

"Master Hou, Master Hou, oh, please calm down first. I didn't say anything from the beginning to the end. Why is Master Hou so angry? This Tian Zhen... Master Hou killed well! The killing was very satisfying. I won't hide it from Master Hou.

Said, slaves have long heard that Tian Zhen has a bad record and has done countless bad things that shake the morale of the army..."

"I have always wanted to find an opportunity to kill Tian Zhen. Unexpectedly, the Marquis made a quick move and decisively beheaded Tian Zhen. The Marquis did the right thing. I am willing to write a joint letter with the Marquis to list Tian Zhen's crimes and behead Tian Zhen.

"Zhen is here to eliminate evil for our Anxi Protectorate. From now on, our Anxi Protectorate, He Qing Haiyan, will be at peace. The Marquis will eliminate thieves for the country, and his merits will be in the country!"

Gu Qing glanced at him in surprise.

This guy turned around decisively when his appearance was wrong, and he knelt down so thoroughly.

There was no mention of Gu Qing's various crimes that implicated him, but Gu Qing understood the meaning. It probably meant that Bian Lingcheng could no longer care about his killing Tian Zhen, and Gu Qing also asked to be noble and not to mention it in the memorial.

Nonsense, unwarranted implication.

So Gu Qing glanced at him quickly, and then said with a smile: "The border supervisor's words are reasonable. It seems that I have wrongly blamed you. Haha, he who doesn't know is not guilty. The border supervisor should not take it to heart. As for the memorial, please ask the border guard

How about I write it in Jianjun’s own handwriting and then we jointly submit it to Chang’an?”

Bian Lingcheng smiled in an extremely friendly manner and nodded repeatedly: "Very good, very good. Lord Marquis is resolute and decisive in killing. I will write it in my memorial..."

Gu Qing knew the elegant meaning after hearing the song, and hurriedly said: "I discovered Tian Zhen's crime together with the border supervisors, and it was also a plan to eliminate the traitor after you and I conspired to catch Tian Zhen in one fell swoop. If I can say that I take the credit, it is also me."

The border supervisors must not be modest about their joint contributions with the border supervisors, they need to write them down in full."

Bian Lingcheng blinked. The Communist Party was such a criminal, how could they "catch them all"?

But he also understood what Gu Qing meant. The two looked at each other and smiled gently, and silently reached a temporary cooperation agreement.

The suffocating and tense atmosphere in the handsome tent was swept away in an instant. The tent was now warm and cozy, like a spring breeze blowing on their faces. Gu Qing and Bian Lingcheng looked at each other and smiled. Their eyes were so gentle that they could squeeze water out of their eyes. Just a glance.

There was a faint evil aura of treacherous conspiracy, but the two of them automatically ignored it.

…………

After walking out of the camp, Bian Lingcheng's smiling face instantly turned livid when he turned around. The fierce light in his eyes kept flashing. He gritted his teeth and tried hard to restrain his anger that was about to explode.

"That's too much! This Gu Qing..." Bian Lingcheng muttered through gritted teeth and stopped mid-sentence.

This Gu Qing is more difficult to deal with than Gao Xianzhi.

This is a fact that Bian Lingcheng only discovered today.

Gao Xianzhi is just a pure military commander, and Bian Lingcheng can find a lot of shortcomings in Gao Xianzhi at any time. Therefore, during the years of partnering with Gao Xianzhi, Bian Lingcheng respected Gao Xianzhi on the surface, but in fact he never regarded him as a rival in a fight.

, when it comes to intrigues in the officialdom, and when it comes to stabbing people in the back and making accusations, how can Gao Xianzhi be better than Bian Lingcheng?

However, after Gu Qing arrived, Bian Lingcheng felt helpless like a dog biting a hedgehog but unable to bite it.

Gu Qing is not without his shortcomings. On the contrary, he has more shortcomings than Gao Xianzhi. However, Bian Lingcheng cannot handle these shortcomings because they are all minor problems and he has never seen him make a big mistake.

How many problems does Gu Qing have? Does poisoning him count? Does his arrogant style of ordering city expansion and construction without consultation count? Does taking the defeated troops of Khotan Town under his command count?

Speaking of which, there are many, many small handles like this. Bian Lingcheng can grab a lot of them at once, but what is the use of these little handles?

A very key reason is that Gu Qing won a great victory and wiped out more than 20,000 Tibetan troops and a miscellaneous army of several thousand people. The news of the victory had already been sent to Chang'an. At this moment, the emperor was probably so happy that he held a banquet for his ministers and congratulated Anxi.

Great victory.

In the eyes of the emperor, Gu Qing is now a loyal and good commander who can control the situation in Anxi. He will soon replace Gao Xianzhi to take charge of military affairs. It can be said that he is more popular than when he was in Chang'an.

If Bian Lingcheng, a hot celebrity in the eyes of the emperor, handed over a memorial to accuse these accusations that are not a clue at all, what would the emperor think of him? One is a military commander who can win battles, and the other is a little guy who can only report accusations.

Everyone, even fools, know which side the emperor will be on.

Bian Lingcheng felt a chill running down his back. He had to admit the fact that he couldn't move Gu Qing at this moment, at least for now. He could only wait for the right time, waiting for the day when the emperor would become suspicious of Gu Qing.
