Chapter 1080: Catching a Big Fish (6)
Early in the morning, Ge Baogen sent someone to report to Lu Qi that Cui Youfu and his party, including the coachman, a total of seven people, had settled at the Liu Ji Inn in the city, and as soon as the city gate was opened at dawn, these people went west.

"The last general has already sent someone to follow!"
Lu Qi thought for a while and said to Ge Baogen: "Find someone to pretend to be a thief immediately and take them all away!" Don't let one go! β
Ge Baogen was a little hesitant and scared: "My lord, is this inappropriate?" Cui Youfu is also a member of the Zhongshu House and an official of the imperial court, if we leak the news in this way, I am afraid that we will not be able to eat and walk around! β
Lu Qi's eyes widened: "Won't you find a few cronies to do this?" General Ge, the court is not calm now, there are many people who are deferential to the regent on the surface, but in fact secretly oppose him. This Cui Youfu has always been the prince's person before, the prince is gone, they have all lost power, he has nothing to do but came to Bianzhou alone to meet Guo Ziyi secretly, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no unsightly deeds here! The regent has a lot of trust in the official, and before the official left Chang'an, the king talked to the official once, saying that Guo Ziyi is good at everything, but he is a little stupid and loyal, and he is worried that Guo Ziyi will be instigated and fooled, so that the official will stare at Guo Ziyi more! Think about it, Guo Ziyi is the king's protΓ©gΓ©, but the king let the official do such a confidential thing, what kind of trust is this? Honglu Temple was originally just a yamen for the rest of the elderly, but since the king was in charge, he attached great importance to the Honglu Temple, and entrusted the official with a heavy responsibility. The official doesn't know what the purpose of this Cui Youfu secretly came to Bianzhou to see Guo Ziyi, but it's definitely not a good thing! β
Ge Baogen heard Lu Qi say this, so he had to clench his fists and agree: "I understand, the last general will personally bring someone to do it, please wait for the news of the last general!" β
Lu Qi waved his hand: "Go quickly!" β
An hour later, Ma Xucheng personally rushed to report to Lu Qi: "My lord, as you expected, something big happened in the mansion, Guo Linggong suddenly fainted last night, and he fainted before Cui Youfu left, and he didn't wake up until dawn." The government has been blocking the news, and the last general will send someone to knock on the side of the chef who is responsible for buying ingredients in the government to find out! β
Lu Qi frowned, walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, and said to himself: "What did Cui Youfu say to Guo Ziyi, causing Guo Ziyi to faint and wake up all night?" It seems that this is not a small matter. General Ma! β
Ma Xucheng hugged his fists and said: "The end will be!" β
"Send someone to keep an eye on the government and try your best to find out Guo Ziyi's situation, the official wants to know why he fainted, and what Cui Youfu told him!"
"Yes, the last general will go!"
After Ma Xucheng left, Lu Qi thought for a while, and shouted outside: "Someone!" β
A civil official walked in and clasped his fists and said, "What do you command?" β
Lu Qi instructed: "Send someone to inform the supervisors of the various armies immediately, and let them hurry to discuss the matter!" β
"Yes, sir!"
Lu Qi is the chief army of the counterinsurgency, and the supervisors of other armies are subject to his control and jurisdiction, and he has his own military supervision office to govern the overseers of various armies, although the official position is not high, but the power is only inferior to Guo Ziyi, which is also the reason why Lu Qi is loyal to Zhao Ziliang, appointing a small Hongluqing as the supervisor of the counterinsurgency army, and commanding the military discipline and political attitude of hundreds of thousands of troops, which is not the courage of any person in power, and Zhao Ziliang did it.
Lu Qi is a sinister and cunning person, jealous and jealous, once he offends him, he holds a grudge and always wants to kill people. He is most taboo for others to ridicule his appearance openly and secretly, and once he finds out, he will never give up until he makes people bankrupt and ruined.
However, Lu Qi also has his advantages, he is serious and responsible, he can't do anything else, he is definitely a good hand at doing bad things, and it is difficult for him to come up with a strategy to stabilize the country, but if he is allowed to harm and rectify people, this person is definitely a good hand.
During the crusade against Li Lingyao, Huainan Jiedu made Wei Yuanfu have a number of generals under Wei Yuanfu who violated military discipline and plundered the villagers, Lu Qi immediately sent people to arrest the generals and related soldiers who violated military discipline, Wei Yuanfu was worried about his generals, so he asked Guo Ziyi to intercede with Lu Qi, Guo Ziyi interceded with Lu Qi in order to envelop Wei Yuanfu, Lu Qi refused on the spot, and also wrote to Zhao Ziliang, saying a lot of bad things about Guo Ziyi, Zhao Ziliang issued an edict to Guo Ziyi and Wei Yuanfu to severely reprimand, He also punished them with a strict order to severely punish the soldiers who plundered the villagers, and at the same time sent people to commend Lu Qi, who was commended by all the generals and colonels of the whole army, and who strictly enforced the law and never compromised with any violation of military discipline, was a model for the whole army.
Although Zhao Ziliang's understatement punishment of Guo Ziyi and Wei Yuanfu did not achieve Lu Qi's goal of rectifying them, he was very happy after being praised by Zhao Ziliang, and he was more motivated.
In the Bianzhou Mansion, Guo Ziyi pondered for a long time and then instructed Guo Yao: "I can't be the marshal of counterinsurgency for my father anymore, but it's not appropriate to rashly write a letter to resign, for the sake of today's plan, you can only pretend to be sick and can't be a director, you can send someone to find the Korean medical officer!" β
"Yes, the boy will send someone to ask for the Korean doctor!"
Soon, the Han medical officer rushed over again with the medicine box on his back, and saw that Guo Ziyi was awake and looked quite good, not like the aggravation of his condition, so he wondered: "Ling Gong, γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» this?" β
Guo Ziyi asked the Korean medical officer to sit down and said, "I want to ask the Korean medical officer to do me a favor again!" β
Doctor Han bowed his hand and said, "Please give orders to the Duke of Ling!" β
"Later, the dog will send someone to inform Lu Jianjun, Deputy Marshal Zang and Vice Marshal Wei, as well as other lieutenant generals in the army, announcing the news that Ben Shuai has suffered a stroke and cannot be a director, and hopes that the Han medical officer will confirm it on the side!"
Guo Ziyi said that when he said this, he saw that Doctor Han's doubts were even stronger, so he stopped him from asking: "Doctor Han doesn't need to ask the reason, the less you know, the better, and the more you know, it's not a good thing for you!" β
Doctor Han understood, and arched his hand: "The lower official understands, everything is under the orders of Ling Gong!" β
Guo Ziyi was relieved when she saw that the Korean medical officer agreed, and instructed Guo Yao: "Ask someone to release the wind in the morning, and it will be said that my father has had a stroke and is half paralyzed!" In the afternoon, I sent someone to inform Lu Qi, Zang Xiyan, Wei Yuanfu and others and tell them about this matter! β
Guo Yao promised: "Yes, the child understands!" β
In the morning, the news that Guo Ziyi had suffered a stroke, was bedridden, and half of his body was disseminated, and within an hour it spread among the counterinsurgency army.
Lu Qi was the first to get the news, and Ma Xucheng reported to him: "Lord γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ», this is the way it is, the villain was about to bribe the people in the government to inquire about the news, but he didn't expect the people in the government to spread the news first!" β
After listening to Ma Xucheng's report, Lu Qi was startled at first, and then frowned: "At this time, Guo Ziyi had a stroke, was bedridden, and half of his body was paralyzed, and the official always felt that there was something strange in this. Early in the morning, when you bought the cook in the palace, did he say that Guo Ziyi couldn't get out of bed anymore? β
Ma Xucheng shook his head: "That's not true." The cook only said that someone seemed to have come late yesterday night, and then Guo Ziyi fainted with anger, and he didn't come back until dawn, not saying that Guo Ziyi was paralyzed in bed.
Lu Qi quickly had doubts: "Who is Guo Ziyi?" He is a military general, if a military general is paralyzed in bed and cannot move, this is equivalent to killing a military general, what a big deal is this? If the cook knew about Guo Ziyi's fainting last night, it would be impossible not to know about Guo Ziyi's paralysis, but he didn't say it. What does that mean? It shows that Guo Ziyi was not paralyzed early in the morning, but Guo Ziyi is paralyzed now, and after he is sober, don't you think there is anything strange in this? β
Ma Xucheng is not stupid, he immediately said: "Do you mean that Guo Ziyi deliberately pretended to be sick?" β
Lu Qi was extremely sure: "Nine times out of ten!" Others may not know the mystery here, but you and I clearly saw Cui Youfu enter the mansion late at night to see Guo Ziyi, and soon saw Cui Youfu coming out of the mansion in a panic, and then heard the news that Guo Ziyi was stunned, but the official didn't know what Guo Ziyi wanted to do, why did he pretend to be sick! I'm afraid that I won't know until General Ge comes back! The official first went to the government to see Guo Ziyi and confirm whether he was pretending to be sick or really paralyzed! β
Lu Qi quickly came to the mansion with some personal soldiers, he didn't expect that he was not the first to arrive, and when he was led by Guo Yao to Guo Ziyi's sickbed, he found that Dai Xiuyan, Wei Yuanfu, Wei Boyu, Luo Yuanguang and others had arrived first.
When everyone saw Lu Qi, they all hugged their fists and greeted: "Lord Lu is here!" β
Lu Qi returned the salute one by one, walked to the sickbed and said to Guo Ziyi, who was lying down: "Ling Gong, what's wrong with you?" Wasn't it all okay last night? β
Guo Ziyi crooked her mouth, one hand was stiff, the other hand seemed to have polio, several fingers were shrunk together like chicken paws, and she said vaguely with a crooked mouth: "When people are old, this disease will come." The old man looks like this, I'm afraid that he won't be able to command the whole army! The old man is about to send someone to invite you to come over and discuss, an army can't be without a handsome! β
Lu Qi looked at Guo Ziyi like this, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, Guo Ziyi, you just pretend, don't think that the official can't see that you are pretending to be sick, but why are you doing this?
Since the generals of all the armies were here, Lu Qi simply discussed with them Guo Ziyi about the next matter, and decided that during Guo Ziyi's inability to be the director, Zang Xiyan would temporarily take charge of the affairs of the army, and at the same time send someone to the Chang'an Regent Mansion to report to Zhao Ziliang that Guo Ziyi had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed, and asked Zhao Ziliang to give instructions on the next steps of the counterinsurgency army.
In the afternoon, Ge Baogen, who was sent out to pretend to be a bandit, came back, he saw Lu Qi but was not in a hurry to report, but signaled Lu Qi to retreat, what a shrewd person Lu Qi is? Immediately understood that the matter was serious, so he asked all the people around him to retreat.
Ge Baogen took out a bright yellow piece of cloth from his arms and handed it over: "My lord, this is from Cui Youfu's body, just look at this!" β
