Chapter 479 (2/2)
“Jian Yong, what are you saying?”
“This Jian Yong requests to investigate Sun Qian’s residence and interrogate Sun Qian!” Jian Yong requested He was in charge of Liu Bei’s intelligence division Although he had no personal interest in Sun Qian, he had infor at Sun Qian’s residence several days ago This coupled with those coincidences made Sun Qian suspicious
Liu Bei stayed silent for a long tireed with hi’s heart sank
Sure enough, Liu Bei glared at Jian Yong and shouted, “Jian Yong Jian Xianhe! Are you trying to say that Sun Qian is a spy sent by the enemy? Do you think I am so blind that I can’t identify traitors?1”
“This subject dares not!” Jian Yong hurriedly replied in fear “This subject only thinks it is too coincidental!”
“If Sun Qian wanted to betray o! He had the chance to betray me at Xuzhou and Xudou! Did he do it? He did not!” Liu Bei’s wordsfeel displeased When Sun Qian first joined Liu Bei at Xuzhou, Liu Bei was not yet governing Xuzhou When Liu Bei was chased out of Xuzhou by Lu Bu, Chen Gong also took plenty of Liu Bei’s subordinates such as Cao Bao This is because Liu Bei only had Xiaopei left and was facing a crisis If Lu Bu had not stopped to fight against Cao Cao, Liu Bei would have already been destroyed Only Sun Qian and a few others continued to support Liu Bei
Besides that, Cao Cao had also invited Sun Qian to join him While Sun Qian was certainly not the best, he was still talented Obtaining Sun Qianmore talents with him At the same time it would deprive others of said talent Liu Bei would becos such as a title and even Xuzhou once Xuzhou was captured It was a place where Sun Qian could make his talents shi+ne However, Sun Qian still refused
“But Milord!” Jian Yong wanted to argue Sun Qian had indeed went through e
“There is no but about this! If you still think he is a traitor, how about you get stabbed and survive! Then I will trust you!” Liu Bei sneered If it was before this, Liu Bei would have joined Jian Yong in being suspicious of everyone However, Sun Qian getting attacked had dispelled Liu Bei’s doubts Sun Qian was stabbed in the chest and survived through a miracle! Can this be a coincidence? It was not possible for someone to waste their life just to betray another person!
“I understand, Milord!” Jian Yong sighed and no longer argued If only he had persisted and searched Sun Qian’s residence, he could have gained a profit What a pity!

“Didn’t I say that I will notabout how to use the money he obtained Should he buy people’s loyalty or should he give it to his Lord? After all, there is not much money left in Yuzhou If the incident at Ruyin did not happen, Sun Qian would have definitely re However, Sun Qian’s ed
At this point the door was forcefully opened
“How dare you! Who let you in?” Sun Qian as behind the curtains noticed that someone had entered This was his own personal room in his residence Who could be so impudent to enter his room without his per te injured for a short while!” The intruder sneered
