Beijing City, a compound, Lan Tian and Zhang Tao's two families of dozens of people live here.

Since returning from the Xuzhou War, Lan Tian and Zhang Tao's lives have been extremely difficult, and the Manchus seem to have forgotten them, not to mention the promised marquis, and they don't even have their original positions as generals.

Lan Tian and Zhang Tao didn't dare to ask, after all, the Battle of Xuzhou was lost after all, and they didn't get any credit, how could the Manchus ignore them, the days were too miserable.

"Brother Lan, I regret not being at the beginning, Qinglu is really Qinglu, and he didn't believe his words!" Zhang Tao looked remorseful.

Lan Tian was silent, but sighed deeply, and regretted it in his heart.

Xuzhou lost the battle against the Manchu Dynasty, all the games were lost, and the two of them were also involved, it was impossible for them to go back, and it was difficult for the Qing Dynasty to have their foothold.

It's a pity that no matter how Zhang Tao and Lan Tian regret it, they can't go back, there is no regret medicine in the world, and the bitter fruit caused must be swallowed by themselves, which will be a price they can't afford.

"My lord, Zhang Tao and Lan Tian don't have any guards around them, do you want to do it immediately!" In a hidden place, a member of the hoe team said to Chen Mingyu.

"No, Zhang Tao and Lan Tian don't have any cronies around them to guard, it's easy to catch the two of them, but Li Huaxi is the most important, Li Huaxi's forces are not pro-guard, in order to avoid startling the grass and snakes, let Li Huaxi notice that he has a defense, or arrest Li Huaxi first!" Chen Mingyu calmly analyzed.

"It's my lord!" The team member replied.

Li Huaxi brought 40,000 soldiers and horses to surrender to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and later the Manchu Qing expanded the army, Li Huaxi also got some benefits, and the army under his command expanded to 80,000 people, although most of the casualties in the Battle of Xuzhou, but Li Huaxi still has more than 20,000 people under his command to guard thousands of people, and it is not easy for Chen Mingyu to kill Li Huaxi.

"What's going on with Lee Hwa Hee's side?" Chen Mingyu asked with a slight frown.

It is said that Chen Mingyu and others have been in Beijing for nearly ten days, and after finding out the details of the target three, they have been waiting for the opportunity to do it.

"Lord Hui, according to the report of the people who monitored it, Li Huaxi was too cautious, and almost did not go out every day except for the court, and every time he went out, he brought at least dozens of guards, and he had no chance to do it at all." A member of the hoe team said very depressedly.

Li Huaxi was very suspicious, and the defeat in the Battle of Xuzhou made Li Huaxi see the conditions for the re-emergence of the Ming Dynasty, which made Li Huaxi inexplicably afraid, because the Li family betrayed the Ming Dynasty after all, and Li Huaxi was worried that sooner or later the Ming Dynasty would find him to settle the score, so since he came back from the Xuzhou War, Li Huaxi put his safety first and tried his best to avoid any dangerous situation.

"No, even if there is a chance in the city, we can't do it, it's too easy to attract the attention of the Qinglu, once the Qinglu reacts and closes the city gate in time, even if we can kill Li Huaxi, we will become a turtle in the urn, it is likely that all of them will be lost, the gains outweigh the losses, we must be like a foolproof strategy to do it, it is best to lure him outside the city, in this way, it is not only easier to kill him, but also will not alarm the Qinglu, it is the safest way." Chen Mingyu pondered for a moment, revealing a trace of embarrassment, as the captain of the hoe team, Chen Mingyu hopes to keep all the team members, instead of risking all the losses for the sake of one Li Huaxi, the gains outweigh the losses, and the emperor will not allow this.

"My lord, it's hard to find opportunities in the city, and it's too difficult to lure the dog thieves out of the city!" A member of the hoe team rolled his eyes, he was not afraid of death, as long as he killed Li Huaxi, a dog traitor, but he was not afraid of death It was his own, Chen Mingyu had a stable personality, and what he wanted most was how to complete the task and protect himself.

Although it is difficult to do this, Chen Mingyu believes that people always come up with solutions, and they will definitely come up with them.

"That dog thief is like knowing that someone will be against him, and he doesn't leave a chance for every move, it's too cunning!" Another member of the hoe team who was spying on Lee Huaxi gritted his teeth.

Any member of the hoe team is willing to ensure their own safety while completing the task, so at this point, most people acquiesce to Chen Mingyu's steady thinking.

"The task assigned by the emperor must be completed! No matter how cunning the dog thief is, there will always be a flaw when he is exposed, and even if there is no flaw, we can create an opportunity to force him out of the turtle shell! Chen Mingyu's eyes narrowed slightly, there is a must report from Jinyiwei, and he will soon be able to find out everything about Li Huaxi, Chen Mingyu always believes that he will definitely be able to think of a way to crack it when the time comes.

Because of the great significance of the rape, Zhu Cihong gave Chen Mingyu the greatest convenience, and asked Jinyi Wei to secretly assist Chen Mingyu and help Chen Mingyu inquire about everything about each target.

Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, so there are flaws, and Li Huaxi is no exception, the information that has been sent one after another these days, Chen Mingyu has preliminarily analyzed Li Huaxi's personality and hobbies, and is planning to make a fuss in it.

A day later, the Jinyi Wei spy sent Li Huaxi's information again.

Chen Mingyu opened it and took a look, a trace of fierceness suddenly flashed in his eyes, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, this time there is a message in the secret report about Li Huaxi that can definitely be used, as long as it is operated properly, Li Huaxi will inevitably enter the trap.

"There's a way, let's go outside the city first, I want to confirm a message." Chen Mingyu quietly slipped out of the city with a few members of the hoe team, and hurried to a Zhuangzi ten miles east of the city.

From Jinyiwei's secret report this time, Chen Mingyu learned that Li Huaxi actually hid from his wife and raised a new favorite concubine ten miles east of the city, this favorite concubine was brought back by Li Huaxi from Xuzhou, she was charming and lovely, and Li Huaxi liked it very much.

The reason why this concubine is hidden outside the city is because Li Huaxi's wife is too jealous, resulting in Li Huaxi's concubine always dying of illness inexplicably every time he takes back the concubine. This time this concubine was so happy that Li Huaxi arranged her outside the city in order to protect her, and took time to visit her every month.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Mingyu and the hoe team were given an excellent opportunity, at this moment, Chen Mingyu and a group of hoe team members have begun to agree on a strategy, which will be implemented immediately, once Li Huaxi is really led out of the city, he will be killed immediately.
