The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 306 Use
In Qingtong City, the fighting continued.

When Liu Wei arrived with soldiers and horses, Xue Tao was almost done with the enemies in the city.

Seeing this, Liu Wei didn't hesitate much, and immediately ordered to attack the city.

When the army came, Long Xian was no match for Xue Tao, but now Liu Wei led troops to kill him, how could he be an opponent?
Knowing that today is inevitable, Long Xian didn't think about it, he pulled out his sword, and shouted at the Song army downstairs: "Kill, kill!"

Longxian's people are all dead soldiers, and the meaning of their existence is only to drag willow-like soldiers and horses, so at this time, they completely forgot about life and death, and when the city gate opened, they rushed up on horseback.

The fighting escalated again, and the wind swept through the clouds.

However, although Long Xian's people were dead soldiers, when they rushed out of the city, they immediately realized that in many cases, it is not enough to have the determination to die, and they must have strength.

They were quickly dealt with by Liu Wei's men, and none of them were killed.

There is really no need for people like them who wantonly kill people to stay.

Qingtong City was destroyed, and the only remaining people were sent back. They were very dissatisfied with the fact that the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty attacked the city regardless of their life and death, but they dared not say anything. Their status was too humble, and their lives were worthless. They were afraid Once they complained, they might be killed on the spot by these soldiers.

They are timid and afraid, and they can only mourn the misfortune of those who were killed.

Xue Tao's heart was very disturbed, but his face was very calm. If he hadn't brought people to kill, how could Qingtong City be broken? He thought to himself, he should have made a contribution.

Although he said that his mission was to destroy Liu Wei's pursuit of Chen Chen, he felt that he was right to do this. As Liu Wei is the general, he should bear the responsibility for killing the people in Qingtong City, right?
Liu Wei didn't have any expression on his face. Now he knows exactly what Xue Tao is thinking. Song Jun broke Qingtong City regardless of the life and death of the people. , with Zhao Kuangyin's character of pretending to be kind, he will not give up easily.

As the coach, he is naturally responsible for this matter.

It's not that he's afraid of taking responsibility, he just feels that he's a bit guilty of taking on this responsibility, because it's not an order he gave.

Trap, he thought it was a trap.

He knew exactly who Xue Tao was. He was a member of Xue Juzheng, and he still had some weight in the court. What could he do with such a person? Could he be an enemy of Xue Juzheng?
After thinking about it, Liu Wei looked at Xue Tao and said coldly: "What did I order? Without my order, no one is allowed to send troops, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law."

Xue Tao didn't take it seriously, and said: "Now that you have captured Qingtong City, your subordinates can be regarded as meritorious."

"So what about meritorious service? Because of your reckless actions, many innocent people were killed. How do you say this officer should deal with you?"

Xue Tao looked at Liu Wei, snorted coldly in his heart, but said: "Your Excellency, you can deal with it as you want."

"Okay, I said before about the military punishment. If that's the case, you should pay for the lives of those innocent people who were killed. Come, someone will pull Xue Tao out and behead him. Whoever acts without obeying orders will end like this."

After Liu Wei's order was given, guards came to pull Liu Wei immediately. In this army, it is impossible for Liu Wei to not have a group of loyal guards. When those guards came to pull Xue Tao, Xue Tao was suddenly frightened. He knew Liu Wei What kind of person is he, he can really do such a thing.

"I'm the deputy general, I'm Xue Juzheng's nephew, you...you dare to kill me?"

Liu Wei didn't pay attention to Xue Tao, but waved his hand and asked the guards to pull him down and kill him.

Xue Tao's heart sank, and he suddenly knelt down to Liu Wei: "Lord Liu, please forgive me, please forgive me, I'm a foolish and impulsive officer, so I ask Master Liu to make up for the damage I've done for the sake of breaking Qingtong City. One life..."

If a person wants to survive, he must be able to bend and stretch, and then he must be shameless, preferably shameless.

This is how Xue Tao is now. He believes that Liu Weizhen can kill him. For this reason, he has to find a way to survive, and if he wants to survive, making himself humble is undoubtedly the most common method used by the people.

Because people are always easy to forgive humble people, maybe in their view, humble people are not very dangerous, maybe humble people are not human at all in their eyes.

But Liu Wei knows that a person changes a lot. When he says good things to you, he may be thinking about how to kill you. Therefore, Liu Wei thinks that only dead people are the safest for him.

So, facing Xue Tao's begging for mercy, he only showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and then waved his hand.

After the guard understood, he dragged Xue Tao out, but when his hopes were shattered, Xue Tao suddenly cursed, even he didn't know why, maybe he felt that he would never have another chance to enjoy the scolding.
-
Xue Tao is dead.

The news quickly spread to the capital, and one of them was from Liu Wei. He killed the deputy general Zhao Kuangyin had arranged for him. How could he do it without telling Zhao Kuangyin?

Xue Ju received it from his spies.

After Zhao Kuangyin received the news of Xue Tao's death, he was taken aback. He didn't expect Liu Wei to be so courageous and dare to kill Xue Tao. He was so arrogant, so arrogant.

Although Xue Tao violated the military order, he couldn't just kill him like this. Xue Tao is Xue Juzheng's nephew. Doesn't he understand who he would offend by killing Xue Tao?
In fact, in Zhao Kuangyin's heart, he also believed that he would be punished for violating the military order, but since Xue Tao had made up for it, he could just be beaten, why did he have to kill him?

He doesn't understand what Liu Wei thinks, he thinks Liu Wei is a smart person, so he should be clear, right?
In fact, what he doesn't know is that in Liu Wei's mind, a dead person is easier to deal with than a living person. If Xue Tao is just beaten up, who knows if he will cause other troubles?
Moreover, Liu Wei felt that Xue Tao's existence was not good for his team to destroy Chen Chen. He didn't know why he felt this way, but he would rather believe it, so he killed Xue Tao.

Just when Zhao Kuangyin was puzzled, Xue Juzheng entered the palace. He was a little angry and sad. After seeing Zhao Kuangyin in the imperial study, he suddenly knelt down and poured out bitter water, saying how about Liu Wei, his nephew What a loss to die.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't interrupt until Xue Juzheng finished speaking, he finally nodded and asked, "What does Xue Aiqing want to do?"

"Let Liu Wei pay for my nephew's life." Xue Ju hated Liu Wei so much at this time, so he didn't think much when he said this sentence. He was so naive, he thought his nephew Who is it that his nephew's life is worth Liu Wei's?

He didn't understand what Liu Wei meant to Zhao Kuangyin at all, and he didn't know Zhao Kuangyin's heart at all.

Liu Wei has done too many things to help the imperial court. Leaving aside the fact that he has been providing financial revenue to the imperial court, Liu Wei's "Winning Injustice Collection" is enough for the imperial court to treat him specially, not to mention that Liu Wei is still a son-in-law. He once helped him stabilize the exterminated Northern Han Dynasty, and got Li Yu from the Southern Tang Dynasty to the police. Most importantly, Liu Wei is a talent, a talent that can make the Song Dynasty prosperous and strong.

Such a talent, even if there were ten Xue Taos, Zhao Kuangyin would not change them.

Therefore, after Zhao Kuangyin heard Xue Juzheng's words, he couldn't help taking a cold breath, and then looked at Xue Juzheng: "Is it too much?"

"However, the murder pays the debt and pays the money."

Zhao Kuangyin didn't expect Xue Juzheng to be so ruthless, so he nodded: "In this way, I feel that your nephew died well. After all, because of him, more than 100 people of Song Dynasty were killed, and he needs to be responsible for this matter."

Speaking of this, Zhao Kuangyin waved his hand: "You go back, this matter is not allowed to be discussed again, otherwise Xue Tao will not only be responsible for the death of the more than 100 people."

There was a threat in Zhao Kuangyin's words. Xue Tao was recommended by Xue Juzheng. Now that Xue Tao did such a thing, Xue Juzheng, are you also responsible?
Xue Ju is just a smart person, he quickly realized that he had made a mistake, and when he realized this, he kowtowed and retreated, knowing that he could only accept this loss secretly.

Kaifeng House.

After the news of Xue Tao's murder reached Kaifeng Mansion, Su Tongkan showed a slight smile.

"My lord, it seems that Liu Wei has sensed Xue Tao's intentions. Xue Tao belongs to Xue Juzheng, and Xue Ju belongs to King Wei. King Wei may not want Liu Wei to chase and kill Chen Chen."

King Jin frowned slightly. His people were very strict with King Wei. He knew exactly who King Wei had seen, but he didn't want to expose it so early. He thought it was his own bargaining chip.

He nodded.

"Yeah, if Liu Wei didn't discover something, how could he kill Xue Tao? Liu Wei is not an idiot, killing Xue Tao will not do him any good, Xue Juzheng is not weak in the court, and he will not let him go of."

Su Tongkan nodded, and then smiled: "So, Liu Wei just took advantage of Xue Tao."

"Oh, used Xue Tao?"

"From this point of view, it is impossible for Liu Wei not to know that Xue Tao led people to attack the city, but he didn't stop him at first. Maybe he wanted to break the city, but he didn't want to bear the notoriety of disregarding the lives of the people. Except for Xue Tao, so when Xue Tao made a mistake, he would kill Xue Tao without hesitation."

King Jin thought about it carefully, and then nodded. He felt that what Su Jiaojian said was very reasonable. This kind of thing was indeed like Liu Wei's style. He didn't think Liu Wei was such a kind person. To achieve his goal, he sacrificed some He shouldn't care about the people at all, and he wouldn't even blink if he killed Xue Tao.

"Yes, so to speak, Liu Wei can kill two birds with one stone."
