Two days after Chen Fei arrived in Dunhuang, Yumen Pass.

"Tian Qiu is back?" Tang Tai got up from his seat with a "rub".

Wang Quan reported below: "Yes, Tian Qiu has just returned from Guanwai. It's just ........"

Tang Tai raised his eyebrows: "Just what?" ”

Wang Quan smiled bitterly, "It's just that Chen Fei didn't come back with him?" ”

"Huh?" Tang Tai snorted coldly, and the atmosphere instantly became heavy. "What's going on? What about Chen Fei? ”

Wang Quan touched his nose and smiled bitterly: "According to Tian Qiu, he and Chen Fei went out of the customs together and got along together for one night, and when he got up the next morning, Chen Fei disappeared, and he completely lost his trace in the vast desert, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead." ”

"Bang!" Tang Tai slapped the table heavily and said angrily: "What a life and death don't know!" Does he Tian Qiu think I, Tang Tai, am a fool? Such a lame reason is also used to fool me? What about Tian Qiu? Bring him up! ”

Wang Quan waved his hand towards the door, and after a while, Tian Qiu strode into the hall, and when he saw Tang Tai, he immediately saluted: "The last general, Tian Qiu, have seen the general!" ”

"Humph!" Tang Tai was angry and said angrily: "Tian Qiu, before leaving, I asked you to watch Chen Fei carefully and pay attention to his movements, but what about others?" Why didn't I come back with you? ”

Tian Qiu spoke: "The last general is not doing well, and I ask the adults to punish him." ”

"Reprimand? Everyone is lost, how do you want me to punish you? Do you know how heavy Chen Fei is in the minds of today's saints? He is gone, and the wrath of the saint will inevitably involve you and me! You... It's inevitable! ”

"The last general is guilty, please punish the general!" Tian Qiu still said not salty, although he said that this was sinful, but there was not much awe in his eyes.

Tang Tai's anger "rub!" He got up at once, squinting at Tian Qiu: "General Tian, this official asked you, since Chen Fei was missing at that time, why didn't you report it to this official immediately?" But disappeared together for half a month? ”

"General Yu, the last general was anxious to find Chen Fei at that time, so he searched outside the pass and did not come back in time. It's just a pity that no one was found. ”

"Oh? The gate is so big, how did you come up with the idea of searching on your own? Are you so easy to fool when you are an official? ”

Tian Qiu was silent, and Tang Tai continued to ask in a deep voice: "General Tian, this official still has a question. At the beginning, the official only gave you three days of medicine, but you took it outside for half a month, and there was no medicine during this time, how did you survive? ”

Tian Qiu was silent for a long time, and said tremblingly: "The last general... The last general is hard at first, but... But I'm getting used to it......."

"Humph! General Tian, now you can't even tell lies, do you? How much do you think this nonsense will be believed by the official? Come! Leave Tian Qiu for me, and strictly supervise and interrogate! ”

Tian Qiu was also stubborn, seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, he simply went out, stared at Tang Tai and gritted his teeth and said, "Tang Tai!" I am a military general who was enshrined in the imperial court, not your Tang Tai's personal lackey! Who are you to interrogate me? ”

"General? Minion? Tang Tai laughed, pointed at Tian Qiu and laughed: "Then you can see, in this Yumen Pass, whether you are a military general or a lackey!" Come! Take him down for me! Strict interrogation! ”

As soon as the words fell, a group of soldiers rushed into the house, holding ropes, and directly tied him up and sent him down despite Tian Qiu's resistance.

After Tian Qiu was escorted away, Tang Tai looked at Wang Quan with a gloomy face: "Wang Quan, where do you think Chen Fei will go?" ”

Before Wang Quan could speak, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the house. "Don't care where that Chen Fei went, there are more important things to do now, the sect leader just sent a letter, the plan ...... It's time to get started! ”

"The plan is about to begin?" Tang Tai and Wang Quan's hearts jumped suddenly, and they looked at each other, they both understood what the plan meant at the beginning.

Although they had been planning for this plan for a long time, they still felt a little frightened when they heard that the plan had officially begun.

From now on, they really don't have any turning back, either glory and wealth, or ....... Die!

"You should understand what this means, hurry up and prepare, do it beautifully, the sect leader will definitely not bother with you about the previous things, if you mess up....... Hum! It's useless to keep the two of you. You guys... Let's see for yourself. ”

After speaking, the sect leader turned around and left, leaving Tang Tai and Wang Quan who looked at each other.

After a long time, Wang Quan finally broke the silence with a voice: "Big... My lord, we ........"

"We don't have a choice!" Tang Tai let out a long sigh, took a small packet of medicinal powder from his sleeve, opened it and dipped it a little, put it on his nose and sucked it gently, his face showing an expression of intoxication and struggle.

"Wang Quan, I still say the same thing, since there is no turning back, it is better to simply go all the way to the end and prepare, it's time to close the net."

Wang Quan's face was bitter, nodded silently, and turned to leave.

Half an hour later, 26 generals and eight civil officials of Yumen Pass gathered in Tangtai's mansion.

Tang Tai arranged a banquet to entertain generals and civil officials, and specially invited a troupe passing by Yumen Pass to perform in the middle of the banquet.

Originally, it was a situation of drinking heartily, but now the atmosphere of the banquet is a bit strange, more than 30 civil and military officials, most of them have gloomy faces at the moment, as if there is something on their minds backlogged, and they seem to be cute and unhappy.

However, the remaining small number of officials seemed to be unaware, and they exchanged glasses with their close colleagues, chatting happily.

There was even a person who drank high and asked Tang Tai with a smile: "My lord, the last general heard that this kid Tian Qiu came back today, why didn't you see him at the banquet?" ”

"Tian Qiu?" Tang Tai sneered, took a sip of his wine glass, and squinted at the general. "You want to know where Tian Qiu went?"

The general didn't notice this strange atmosphere at all, and said with a smile: "Yes, my lord, you won't send Tian Qiu out again, right?" This kid is too miserable hahaha! ”

Tang Tai looked at the general without smiling: "You really want to know where he went?" ”

At this time, everyone except this general sensed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, but he nodded with a grin.

Tang Tai put down the cup with a smile, clapped his hands gently, and suddenly, a group of soldiers in armor and knives rushed in outside, drew their swords and surrounded all the generals inside.

In the face of the sudden scene, the reactions of the officials present were different, some were calm, some were helpless, some were frightened, and some were shocked.

"Bang!" The general who was smiling just now slapped the table hard, pointed at Tang Tai and said angrily: "Tang Tai! What are you doing? Rebellion? ”

Tang Tai smiled and replied: "Yes, I just want to rebel, you... Do you want to resist? ”
