Chapter Seventy-Five: Let the Wolves Go

When Li Mo stood at the gate of the prince's villa in Chang'an City with a tired face, it was already noon on the second day, and he handed over the panting horse to the little guy who greeted him, and Li Mo went straight into the inner courtyard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info walked through the lively garden, all the way into the study in the inner courtyard, and followed Li Yan behind him to beckon a small servant and asked him to fetch some water for Li Mo to clean.

"Silence." As soon as he pushed the door open, Li Mo saw Li Zhi who was already waiting in the study.

"Zhi, why did you get out of the palace?" Li Mo was a little surprised, he just asked Li Yan to pass on a letter, but he didn't expect Li Zhi to come out of the palace to wait for him.

"My father is very happy to know that you are coming, and wants you to enter the palace to meet him." Li Zhi looked at Li Mo's expression as he spoke, as soon as his father knew that Li Mo was coming, he asked him to come out of the palace and wait, hoping to let him take Li Mo into the palace.

"No need." Li Mo took off the human skin mask and threw it on the table beside him, reached out and wrung a towel in the copper basin that Li Yan brought in, wiped his face, covered the wet towel on his face, and wore the human skin mask all day, feeling almost out of breath.

"Mo, my father really wants you to go back to the palace to have a look." Li Zhi said without giving up, after many years by his father's side and the queen mother, he always knew that Mo's lack of understanding was an eternal pain in their hearts, and this pain could not be eliminated until the death of the queen mother.

"How's that Hu Duge doing now?" Li Mo threw the towel into the copper basin, and the face that was exactly the same as Li Zhi was expressionless like stagnant water, obviously not wanting to talk about this topic again.

"Alas-" Li Zhi sighed lightly, this persuasion was doomed to be in vain.

"Hu Luge has been put under house arrest by Yao Luoge, the big leader of the nine surnames, if nothing else, there should be no chance to come out before they return to Mobei." Li Zhi looked at Li Mo, a little unsure of his plan.

"House arrest?" Li Mo raised his eyebrows, "This medicine Luo Ge is clever!" ā€

"If you're not smart, you can't do it!" Li Zhi let out a long sigh: "According to the spies who came back from outside the Guan, Tiele was very badly affected last winter, and I heard that the women and children froze to death and starved to death. ā€

"Really? No wonder that Yao Luo Ge was so nervous, I was afraid that it was for the reward when he left! Li Mo laughed mockingly, these people are fierce in nature, they have been coming and going on horseback like the wind for many years, if they were not really bullied by the Turks, I am afraid that they would not have run to the Central Plains to claim obedience.

"I can't blame him, as the patriarch, no one can watch the women and children of the clan die, and there is no newborn child, I am afraid that it will not be long before Tiele will be wiped out." Li Zhi sighed, nomads rely on the sky for food, but in the end they are not as stable and rich as farming.

"How's it going?" Li Mo had no interest in Tieler's survival, all he cared about was businessmen.

"It's okay, I've already asked Xiao Chengzi to deliver her the news, as far as I know, she is full of food and sleep, and I heard that she will go to Concubine Yang's palace to perform a dance for Concubine Yang in two days." Li Zhi looked at Li Mo, but a faint smile appeared on his face, I don't know what's wrong, speaking of which, the time between the two of them is not very long, but I don't know why Li Mo values this businessman so much!

"That's good!" Li Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want her to know about these things, he just handled it for her, she just had to sing her song and dance the dance she loved. That kind of merchant is the real merchant!

Li Mo asked Li Zhi about some things about the inn where the nine surnamed Tiele lived, and Li Zhi told him everything he knew, and he also knew that he had passed on the letter, and Li Mo would definitely dispose of Hu Luge in order to prevent future troubles, but he still had some doubts about what means Li Mo would use to deal with Hu Luge, if it was not done well, it would not be good if it affected his father's plan to appease him.

Li Mo looked at Li Zhi, who was about to speak and stopped, squinted his eyes and smiled indifferently: "Don't worry!" I know how important it is, and I will let him fall into the net and kill himself. There was a thick sinister aura in his light words.

Li Zhi also smiled, with Li Mo's promise, he could rest assured. The two looked at each other, and they both felt that the face opposite them was so reassuring. I laughed unconsciously, and the dull atmosphere in the study was clear.

Li Zhi had dinner with Li Mo in the other garden, and then drove back to the East Palace in the prince's car, since Li Mo refused to enter the palace, the father had to comfort and comfort himself, thinking of Li Shimin's gray hair, Li Zhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and he didn't know if Li Mo's heart knot could be untied?

After sending Li Zhi away, Li Mo called Li Yan in without resting for a moment.

"You go and see who is in charge of the affairs in the pavilion, send a good hand in the secret guard to go in, and release that Hu Luge out tonight." Li Mo sat in the study with his eyes slightly closed, and Li Yan got the order to turn around.

"Hu Luge! Since you want to make some splashes in Chang'an, I'll help you, the bigger the splash you make, the better, so that I can clean you up to be more interesting! I hope you don't let me down. Li Mo muttered in his mouth, with an evil smile on his face, like a beast that saw an interesting prey, smiling and quietly waiting for the prey's struggle and resistance, and when the prey felt that it had escaped and was triumphant, he slapped it fiercely and devoured it completely!

Hu Luge, who didn't know that bad luck was coming, was still asleep in the hall.

After tossing all night and failing to toss himself out of this room, he smashed everything that could be smashed in the wing room in a hurry, and when the room was a mess and there was no place to put his feet, he ate a few bites of the food brought in by the guards outside the door, and fell asleep.

The guards outside the door saw that there was no sound in the room, and when they opened the door to look, they found that the leader had already fought with the Duke of Zhou for three hundred rounds, so he hurriedly called the servants waiting in the hall into the house, and cleaned up the smashed things in the room.

Yao Luo Ge came to look at Hu Luge when he was asleep, and shook his head helplessly, so he had to give some silver money to the person who cleaned up the house, which can be regarded as covering up this matter, after this incident, Yao Luo Ge felt more and more that his decision was extremely correct, with Hu Luge's lawless nature, if this was outside, it might not make a big deal.

After explaining to Hu Luge's strength, Yao Luoge went out, he came to Chang'an this time, in addition to asking for gifts, there was also an extremely important thing to do, that is, the trade route.

The Tiele Department has been operating in the Mobei grassland for many years, and has always been rich, but the Turkic people are growing stronger and stronger, and gradually the Tiele Department is driven to the corner of the Mobei grassland, which makes the survival of the Tiele Department suddenly difficult, they have always been not good at farming and they have lost their pastures, and they are waiting for them in addition to hunger and poverty, and they are only left with extinction!

Therefore, Yao Luo Ge decided to exchange beef and mutton, animal skins, and rare medicinal herbs for the daily necessities of the people, but this required a stable merchant, and if he did not have strong enough strength, it would be difficult for the Turks to pass the hurdle.

Yao Luoge knew that some of the big merchants in the Central Plains were doing business with the Turks, these people were wealthy, they kept their own escorts, and they were inextricably linked with the important officials in the imperial court, and even the Turks did not want to easily offend these people, so they cut off the source of luxury goods such as tea and silk. If you can do business with these people, then the people can also have a better life.

Yao Luoge took two guards out of the hall and went straight to the West Market, here is the head office of several large commercial houses in Chang'an City, what Yao Luoge has to do is to find a partner who is willing to trade with them in these big commercial houses, and both parties can make a profit, he clearly knows that the partner who has no interest relationship cannot last long, and only by pulling this business house to Tieler's horseback can he really keep the life of Tiele people.

Li Yan stood in the shadows on the side outside the gate of the pavilion, watching Yao Luoge go out of the door and then turned into the pavilion, and the people selected from the secret guards followed him in gray clothes, and the ordinary and ordinary were almost forgotten.

The sky is getting dark, Li Yan and the man in gray changed into a servant's clothes and roamed around the pavilion, since he is going to release this wolf, the way out must always be opened for him, but don't let people arrest him before he gets out of the second door.

Seeing that the line was almost touched, the two of them went back to the kitchen and brought two dinners and shook them outside the room where Hu Tange was kept, and before they got closer, they heard a stiff official dialect and asked the two: "Who are you?" ā€

Li Yan glanced at his subordinates, and said with a smile: "This is dinner for the two of you, your big leader said that it will be hard for the two of you these days, and specially told the cook to cook food for the two of you, and instructed us to send it to the two of you." ā€

Duli looked at the face in front of him with some suspicion: "It wasn't the two of you in the past-"

"Aren't these two specially sent? In the past, we all waited for those nobles in the inner palace. This is also the grace of your great chief, isn't it? Li Yan handed over the tray in his hand, interrupting his suspicions.

It's right to think about it, in his opinion, these Central Plains are all about the same, and there is not much difference, and he often gets confused.

happily took the tray, turned around and smiled at Wu Litai, who was guarding the other side of the door: "The big leader is really a good person, let's look at the leader Hu Luge here, and there can be delicious food." ā€

Wu Litai also stepped forward and smiled: "Yes! Now those brothers have to envy us! ā€

A moment of laughter flashed in Li Yan's eyes, and he glanced at his subordinates, and the two stepped forward, waving their hands and slashing the back of the necks of Duli and Wulitai, and almost in the blink of an eye, Duli and Wulitai fell defenselessly.

Li Yan caught the bodies of the two, and the subordinates on the side quickly caught the slippery tray, and tore a chicken leg into his mouth while giggling.

The two of them pulled the unconscious Duli and Wulitai into the ear room on the side, pushed the door open and entered the side room.

Hearing the sound outside the house, Hu Luge had already woken up, and was looking at the two people who came in the door with a look of surprise.

"Who are you?"

"The head of my family admires the courage of the leader of Hu Luge, and specially ordered me to come to help the leader of Hu Luge, so that I can get out of this house, and naturally the sea and the sky are wide."
