"Theory?" Ji Zeyu said coldly: "You are disobeying the military order, and you dare to argue sophistry in front of the Holy Master!"

"Although you are the temporary commander of the Hu Ben Army, you don't understand the internal affairs of the Hu Ben Army, and you can easily lead the army to lose your mind! Since I have been entrusted with important tasks by the Sage's trust, we must be loyal to the Sage. You are just a new official and you want to have power, but now you are embarrassed to say what military orders are not military orders!"

"That's right, you just want dictatorship! Ignoring the original pattern of our Tiger Ben army, you want to do it randomly. I don't know where you put the interests of the country and the trust of the saint!"

Six people opened their mouths and attacked Ji Zeyu together. Ji Zeyu is not the kind of person who is good at words. At this time, one person can argue with no more than six people. Maybe he is disdainful to argue with these people. is on the verge of patience.

Li Qitian calmly made them quarrel, and took the opportunity to observe their expressions and expressions to determine whether they were really arguing or making an appointment.

To be honest, although he trusts Ji Zeyu more, he does not completely trust him, and he will have doubts and precautions in his heart. When he came to the most critical time, he handed over the task of taking down Pang Xiao to Ji Zeyu, but Ji Zeyu made such a mess temporarily and ruined his good deeds. How could Li Qitian not doubt it

However, Li Qitian has been observing carefully for so long, but he can't see any flaws at all. Ji Zeyu and the six old ruffians have indeed reached the point where they hate each other so much that they can't kill each other. Li Qitian felt that if he hadn't been in charge now, they might have drawn swords on the spot.

Since Ji Zeyu did not collude with the people in the Hu Ben army, there are two possibilities. Either the people of the Hu Ben Army were instructed by Pang Xiao and chose to make trouble at this time. Either Ji Zeyu's stinky temper was left in the Hu Ben army and caused public anger. These people did not buy his account, and the anger had accumulated to a certain extent, and it broke out when Pang Xiao came back.

When Li Qitian pondered, the atmosphere between Ji Zeyu and the six people had already froze to a certain extent, and he was about to start.

Li Qitian didn't want to make things bigger, and he didn't want to see them make trouble under his own eyes, so he said, "Shut up."

Li Qitian's voice was neither high nor low, but it was the imperial edict.

Everyone obeyed the decree and kept silent, and realized that their behavior in arguing in the imperial study was a bit too much, and they all bowed their heads.

Li Qitian sneered and said, "You guys are so courageous, you dare to shout so loudly in my imperial study, do you still want to rebel!"

"My ministers are convicted, please forgive me." The seven knelt and bowed together.

Li Qitian then reprimanded: "No matter what Ji Lan's order is, he is the commander-in-chief chosen by us, even if he trusts his ability to command the army, he also intends to hand over all matters in the Huben army to him. You can only obey the military orders. For the sake of it, do you know?"

The six people were speechless for a while, and after a while, Fang responded, "Yes."

Li Qitian looked at these six people, and after thinking about it, he was sure that they were all capable men by Pang Xiao's side, and there was a burst of joy in his heart.

Such a good opportunity, if he can seize the opportunity to take them all down, wouldn't Pang Xiao suddenly lose the help of six in the army

Thinking of this, Li Qitian almost said his intention to kill six people in the letter.

But on second thought, although the six of them are not as famous as Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu, they are all military generals who have served the imperial court for many years. If they are all killed at once, it is okay to say that they are because of the house arrest of the coach with the intention of rebelling. But such a statement can easily arouse suspicion from the outside world.

Having just experienced what happened to Pang Xiao, Li Qitian can't stand the rumors from the outside world now.

Thinking of this, Li Qitian said: "You wait for the house arrest of the coach and disobey the imperial decree, the crime should be punished!"

The faces of the six people turned pale all of a sudden, but none of them panicked, all lowered their heads and waited for Li Qitian's next will.

Seeing that these people were so calm, Li Qitian felt a little panic in his heart.

Could it be that they did this only after listening to Pang Xiao's orders, and they had a backing in their hearts and decided that he would not kill them

Li Qitian's hand tightly grasped the armrest of the chair.

He really wanted to kill people directly to vent his anger. But when he thought that his reputation was the most important thing, he finally managed to endure it.

"However, I have been loyal to your country for many years, and blood and tears have been spilled on the battlefield, so I will not care about you. It's just that the death penalty can be avoided. There is no escape. Come!"

"Yes!"

Twenty or thirty guards in front of the imperial guards poured in all of a sudden, all of them waiting nervously.

Li Qitian said loudly: "The six people will be stripped of their official uniforms, each with twenty big boards, and then sent back to the mansion, stripped of all official positions, and will never be hired."

"According to the order!"

The royal guards immediately stepped forward.

The six people silently let the people smash the government, leaving only their shirts, dragged them outside and slapped them.

When the six people were tortured, Li Qitian didn't let Ji Zeyu get up, but just stared at him silently.

Ji Zeyu's face was as indifferent as usual, and after listening to the sound of the execution expressionlessly, he raised his eyes expressionlessly to meet Li Qitian's gaze.

Li Qitian said solemnly to the pair of eyes without emotion: "Ji Lan, you have disappointed me very much."

Ji Zeyu lowered his head, pursed his blushing lips, and his long eyelashes cast two shadows on his eyelids.

Li Qitian said again: "You are also a leader of the Longchung Army for many years. I don't believe that your ability will make things develop as they are now."

Having said that, Li Qitian stood up and walked in front of Ji Zeyu step by step. Looking down at Ji Zeyu's kneeling posture, the anger that had been suppressed erupted again.

Li Qitian put his foot on Ji Zeyu's shoulder.

Ji Zeyu didn't dodge or hide, and was kicked to the ground.

"Ji Lan! You dare to say that today's affairs are not intentional! You know how important today's affairs are to the imperial court, and it is obviously the best opportunity to take down the hidden dangers in one fell swoop, but because of your inaction, all arrangements are made. It's all in vain, making me a laughing stock among the people in the court!"

Ji Zeyu got up and knelt down again, his voice was as cold as usual, and his emotions were not fluctuating: "I do this for the sake of the Holy One."

When Li Qitian heard this, his anger jumped to a new height again.

"You admit it? You really did it on purpose! That day, Li Guanwen saw that your control over the Hu Ben army was not fake. You were able to use the group of people as your own right and left hands at that time, and they would give you to you at the critical moment. House arrest! Don't I know your abilities yet? You told me that you were under house arrest, but I didn't believe it at the beginning!"
