Chapter 737

Huangfusong narrowed his eyes.

There was no way such a coincidence could happen; Duan Yu must have discovered some clues beforehand and was simply waiting to catch him in the act.

"Despicable." Huangfusong looked at Duan Yu and said coldly, "So, General Duan, you didn't come to the banquet so late just for this."

"General Duan is certainly thoughtful."

"Then I also thank General Duan for helping me discipline this good-for-nothing."

"But since you've caught him and beaten him, as for the money and grain, just return what should be returned. What else does General Duan want?"

"Uncle, I didn't..."

"Shut up!"

Huangfu Li still wanted to quibble, but was stopped by a sharp shout and a glare from Huangfusong.

Since Duan Yu had caught him red-handed, he was clearly prepared; quibbling was useless and would only make him look more disgraceful.

"Heh." Duan Yu smiled and said, "The Left General of the Household is indeed a man of great principle."

"Since the Left General of the Household has admitted it, then I naturally have nothing more to say."

Duan Yu waved his hand and said, "Fengxian, let the person go first and let the Left General of the Household take him back to discipline him."

"However, since I have run into this, I will naturally have to submit a report to the Son of Heaven."

"As for the money and grain you mentioned returning..."

"That is a matter for you, Left General of the Household. You can go and explain it to Attendant Zhang yourself when the time comes."

"I don't have the time to deal with matters between you."

Attendant Zhang!

Upon hearing these three words, Huangfusong's expression changed instantly.

Attendant Zhang!

Zhang Rang?

Huangfusong stared wide-eyed at Huangfu Li: "You wretch, whose residence did you break into?"

Huangfu Li was also completely bewildered, blinking his eyes: "Uncle, I... I... I don't know."

At this moment, Xun Shuang, sitting in the main seat, also had a slight change in his expression.

Attendant Zhang, Zhang Rang.

A group of Xun clan members also realized that this was not as simple as just looting civilian wealth.

And Xun Yu, who had been standing on the side and had not spoken, spoke up at this moment.

"My lord Left General of the Household, the residence your nephew broke into is that of Regular Attendant Zhang Rang," Xun Yu said.

"Ah?" Huangfu Li was completely stunned.

Regular Attendant, Zhang Rang!

This!

Isn't this courting death!

"Uncle, I... I really didn't know, I didn't know anything." Huangfu Li looked at Huangfusong in terror and said, "Uncle, that residence had no plaque... I..."

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Huangfusong's head was about to explode.

Zhang Rang.

Zhang Rang's residence.

If Zhang Rang found out about this, he would absolutely not let it go.

Duan Yu, how ruthless!

Huangfusong gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

Duan Yu smiled and drank wine to himself.

A plaque?

Of course there wouldn't be one.

If there had been a plaque, would Huangfu Li have dared to enter Zhang Rang's residence?

And how could this pot be pinned on Huangfusong and Zhu Jun?

Cao Cao's triangular eyes looked at Duan Yu, his mouth slightly agape, his expression astonished.

There was not a single fool sitting in this hall.

Perhaps except for Huangfu Li.

Coincidences do exist in the world.

But the traces of any event can also be followed.

Duan Yu coming at this time was clearly targeting Huangfu Li.

And dragging Xun Yu along was clearly to have a witness.

But this cannot be called a conspiracy.

This is called an open plot.

The trap was right there, and it was you, Huangfu Li, who willingly stepped into it.

If it weren't for your greed, Huangfu Li, how could anyone fall into such an obvious trap?

Xun Shuang, sitting in the main seat with a calm expression, also became increasingly grave.

A brute?

A military general?

This move by Duan Yu really does not look like a brute from the borderlands, but rather like a seasoned bureaucrat.

With this, the Huangfu clan has gotten into big trouble.

Those eunuchs in the palace are the most vengeful.

Now Zhang Rang will inevitably be at odds with Huangfusong and will certainly bite onto him and not let go.

This move by Duan Yu is too absolute.

And Xun Yu, standing in the hall, looked at Duan Yu, who was slowly drinking wine, and felt a sense of fear inexplicably arise in his heart.

Huangfusong pursed his lips, unable to say a word, and finally had to turn his head to look at Duan Yu, who was sitting there leisurely: "General Duan, good tactics, I have noted them."

"Someone, take this wretch away."

Huangfusong turned around, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the hall.

Zhu Jun and the others hurriedly followed.
