In chapter 179, Wu was in power after the Northern Wei Dynasty died, and Wu De's family was imprisoned

Mo Feng, who rushed back from the Taihe Inn, was standing above the county hall at this time.

"Young Master Qiyu, Emperor Wei is hiding on the second floor of the Taihe Inn, has been captured, and is now being held outside the hall. The subordinates found the jade seal and tiger talisman in the inn room. Mo Feng handed a yellow rosewood box to Duanmu Xuan.

Duanmu Xuan took it casually, only opened it and glanced at it, "Does that assassin have any news?" "Caught Emperor Wei, Duanmu Xuan was not surprised, the person who came could send him a letter, he had already guessed a few points, he was more interested in the person who sent the letter.

"Forgive the incompetence of his subordinates, the people have already run away, and the people in the restaurant are empty, only the back door is hidden. The subordinates checked the two streets and did not see any suspicious persons. ”

"Block the news, find a room first, take care of Emperor Wei, and send it to Luoyang early tomorrow morning."

"Yes. Young master, there is something unknown to his subordinates, so the Wei Emperor is hiding in the Taihe Inn, but the assassin reported it? Mo Feng asked the doubts in his heart at this time.

"Yes, I'm curious, how did he know that we were looking for Emperor Wei? Moreover, this man is only for the delivery of letters, and does not ask for any reward, so it can be seen that he is not a person who is in a hurry to make profits, and if he can find it, it is worth handing. ”

"Young master, this person is accurate, decisive, and cautious, if it can be used by the young master, it is very good, otherwise he is a fierce enemy, not to be underestimated."

"Even if he can send us a letter, it should be a friend rather than an enemy, anyway, no one can be found at this time, so first send Emperor Wei to Luoyang safely, and hand it over to his father will be a mistake."

"Yes, my subordinates will arrange it."

"Mo Feng, you work hard, guard it yourself, don't make a mistake."

"Yes." Mo Feng led the order to retreat. Duanmu Xuan picked up the strip of cloth and looked through it carefully, "I haven't seen this handwriting, but why do you feel a sense of déjà vu?" ”

"Ziheng, I heard that Emperor Wei was caught?" Duanmu Xuan was pondering, and was suddenly interrupted by someone, frowning, and knew that it was Mu Yi, the seventh prince, without looking up.

"You're fast!"

"I care about you, I heard that you have an assassin here, so I rushed over, but as soon as the person entered the courtyard, I saw Mo Feng escorting a person out, and then I knew that you arrested Emperor Wei, now it's good, taking Luoyang City is just around the corner."

Emperor Wei was arrested, Luoyang City was already in the bag, Mu Yi was happy, sat on the side and talked non-stop, only to find that Duanmu Xuan had been looking down at the strip of cloth in his hand, his brows were deeply locked, and he did not see a happy move.

"Ziheng, but what's the difficulty?"

"You take a look at this first." Duanmu Xuan handed the strip of cloth to Mu Yi.

"Could it be that you can capture Emperor Wei because someone sent a letter?"

"Exactly, the assassin you call it. It's just a pity that no one was caught. ”

"Oh, you also have times when you miss, rare, rare!" Mu Yi was a little gloating, and it was rare to see Duanmu Xuan depressed.

"Laugh if you want, when you laugh enough, help me take a look, do you feel familiar with this handwriting?"

Hearing Duanmu Xuan's words, Mu Yi didn't laugh anymore, calmed down and read the words on the cloth one by one, "The clouds are flowing and the pen is like smoke, Ziheng's book is not inferior to you, but it is less powerful, with a silky and beautiful atmosphere." ”

"Oh?" Hearing Mu Yi say that the word "Juanxiu" made Duanmu Xuan feel shocked, he remembered that he had seen Wu Jin's sister's handwritten letter before, although it was written in regular script at that time, it was a little similar to this line of book, took the cloth strip, and read the words again.

"Zichu, how similar is this character to Zhongxian's sister's?"

"How is this possible, although the strength of this character is insufficient, but it is not like a woman's handwriting, and Zhongxian's sister is only 9 years old in terms of age, how can she practice such a good handwriting?" Mu Yi really couldn't believe that a woman could write such a good word, let alone a 9-year-old girl.

"When I saw Zhongxian's sister's handwritten letter, I had a feeling that a seven-year-old girl could write a good regular script, if it wasn't for the peeping, I asked Zhongxian directly, although this line of writing is different from the regular script. And if this person is really Zhongxian's sister, she must not have known that I have read her handwritten letters, so although I changed the font, I did not hide the glyph. ”

"Ziheng, I know you have the ability to never forget, but how can this matter be so coincidental, and you can say, this strip of cloth comes with the arrow, do you still think that a 9-year-old girl can hold a strong bow and shoot such a long arrow?"

"This note was written by her, but this arrow may not have been shot by her, so I will have someone go to the largest inn in the city to check it, and if she stays in the city, she will definitely leave a mark."

"Ziheng, it is important to escort Emperor Wei back to Luoyang at this time, it is really not easy to renew the incident!"

"Don't worry, you can't miss something, just look for this night, if there is still no result at dawn, we will set off immediately."

Situ Yan really didn't expect that just a note would almost leak her identity, where would she have thought that her letter to Wu Jin would fall into the eyes of outsiders, so although she sent the letter in a book, as Duanmu Xuan said, she did not engrave the change of the glyph and put it down. Fortunately, she has been wearing men's clothes, and when Wu Bing searched the city, he only ordered to find the nine-year-old girl who fled from Liaodong County, so he did not arrest Situ Yan, who was disguised as a man.

Duanmu Xuan and Mu Yi waited until dawn, the whole city was searched, and more than 30 nine-year-old girls were found, but none of them were related to Wu Jin, these people have parents, they did not flee, and they all have household books to check, and they are far from Wu Jin's appearance, and they don't need to find Wu Jin to confirm that they are not his sister.

"Ziheng, since this person is in the county, we are not afraid that we will not be able to find it, so we should go back to Luoyang first." At first, Mu Yi didn't believe it, but he went to find the marked soldiers and reported that the largest inn in the county really left a mark, so Mu Yi had to believe that no matter whether this person was the one who sent the letter or not, at least she was also Zhongxian's sister, so he agreed to Duanmu Xuan to search the entire county.

"Okay, Mo Feng, you go and order the officers and soldiers guarding the city, strictly investigate the people who enter and exit the city gate, and find a 9-year-old girl who has fled from Xinchang County, Liaodong County, there should be people who practice martial arts by her side, remember not to hurt people, if you find it, you will be resettled, wait for my news."

"Yes, my subordinates will arrange it."

"Zichu, you haven't slept all night, and you have to hurry, can you afford it?"

"Although your martial arts are far better than mine, but I am not useless in the embroidered pillow, I only haven't slept all night, and it is okay for me, but you care about a woman so much, if you let your aunt know that you don't know whether you are happy or sad?"

"You know this matter, I know, if it reaches the ears of my mother, I am afraid that the matter of your golden house will also be spread in Beijing, and then it will not be a good thing for you and my brothers to sympathize with each other."

"Duanmu Xuan, you threaten me, see how I clean you up!" Of course, Mu Yi knew that Duanmu Xuan's words were just a joke, and the two of them laughed and walked out of the county office, escorted Emperor Wei, and went all the way to Luoyang.

Situ Yan's rented courtyard was searched by Wu Bing last night, and she carefully inquired and learned that Wu Bing was looking for a 9-year-old girl, thinking that it was some important person in Wu State, but she didn't expect that these people were looking for herself. Despite this, after the Wu soldiers left, Situ Yan still asked people to pack up their things, and decided to wait for the Wu army to withdraw early tomorrow morning, and then set off to go south and go straight to Henan County.

Duanmu Xuan and Situ Yan left on their front and back feet, although Situ Yan was strictly inspected when she went out of the city, she was dressed in men's clothes and had a Beijing accent, and was quickly released on the grounds of going to Henan County to find relatives. The destined two passed by again, only leaving a shallow mark in each other's hearts.

Emperor Wei was escorted to Luoyang, ordered the general to open the city gate to surrender to Wu, the Wei army threw a mouse taboo, although the prince was unwilling, but the tiger charm has been lost, the jade seal is not there, so he had to open the city gate and welcome the Wu army into the city.

On the first day of the sixth month, Emperor Wu rushed from the capital Jinling to Luoyang City, announced the death of Wei and Wu Guosheng, and issued a holy decree to imprison all the officials below the fourth rank of Wei guarding the city and their families to the heavenly prison, and listen to the fate of the Hou. He ordered the hussar general to wave his army north, and Pingsizhou captured Jizhou, driving the Turks to the border of Youzhou. And ordered the general of the auxiliary state to wave the army to the west, cut off the back road of the Shu army, forced it to give up the captured Liangzhou, and the counties of the state, retreat back to defend Shu, and signed an alliance with Shu, Emperor Wu was alive, and Shu did not afford to live peacefully with the war.

Because the Shu side retreated peacefully, there was no war, but the north was fighting fiercely, Duanmu Xuan went out with his father, and the seven princes supervised the army, so naturally they could no longer look for Situ Yan, nor could they take care of Wu Jin in the capital, which also made Situ Yan and his party have some fewer unexpected twists and turns on the way to escape.

Besides, Wu De's family was arrested and imprisoned, of course Wu Jin was among them, Li Youzhu was anxious to circle in the courtyard in the lotus, Wu Jin was arrested, even his son was among them, the eldest lady's whereabouts are still unknown, the four gates of the capital are closed, and he can't send Wu to look for it, so he can only do it alone in the yard in a hurry.

Cui Ping took a package from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard to find Li Youzhu, "Brother Youzhu, this is the clothes and some steamed buns I prepared for the eldest young master and the bolt, you want to find a way to send it in, and you can't defend yourself if you spend more money." ”

"Right now, it's just spending money, and these things can't be sent in, the eldest young master, they are locked up in the prison, but it's in the imperial city, I'm just a flat head, which can be entered by spending money. And who is not wise to protect his life, how can anyone be willing to sacrifice his own safety for a few taels of silver. ”

"What can I do? I don't know how the eldest young master is doing now? Will anyone be tortured in the prison that day, my poor son! Cui Ping's crying Li Youzhu was even more confused, he was already irritable, and he was even more impatient, so he waved his sleeves and went directly out of the courtyard to the edge of the imperial city.

Wu Jinzheng, who was in the prison, spoke with the bolt in a suppressed voice, "Wu Jun asked you to go back to the lotus when he entered the city, but you refused, even if you wanted to, you couldn't leave, why are you suffering?" ”

"The eldest young master, the bolt has been by your side since he can remember, you are good to the minion, the minion dare not forget for a moment, whether it is life or death, the minion must be by your side."

"Hey, now I just want to save you from trouble, but I can't do it, everything is left to fate! I don't know how Yan'er is? If I could see her before my soul returns to the West, I will never have any worries in this life. ”

"The eldest lady is auspicious, and she will be fine. And when Wu Jun entered the mansion to arrest people, I also saw my father in the crowd outside the door, he knew that the eldest young master had an accident, and he would definitely go to find the eldest lady, you can rest assured, eldest young master. It's just that if the eldest lady learns that something happened to you, I'm afraid I don't know how to be sad? ”

"The country is broken by mountains and rivers, and the city is deep in spring. When I feel the tears, I hate the birds. The beacon fire lasted for three months, and the family letter was worth 10,000 dollars. The whitehead scratching is shorter, and the hairpin is overwhelming. This song "Spring Hope" expresses my mood at the moment. I really want to see the letter sent by Yan'er again. ”

"Young Master, don't be sad, Emperor Wu is merciful, maybe it's just an exile, you and the eldest lady will always have a goodbye day." The embolus is only comforting, and it is more distressing for Wu Jin. The eldest young master has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, but in the end he ended up with the fate of being a prisoner, how unfair God is, why Wu De's crime alone should affect the good young master, and he scolded Wu De half to death in his heart.

"You don't have to comfort me, in the future, if Manager Li gets the news of Yan'er, he can bring her to my grave to put incense, and I will be at ease even when I go to heaven. Maybe in this way, I can be like my mother, always guard Yan'er's side and bless her safe and smooth! The more Wu Jin spoke, the more distressed he became, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.

The bolt didn't know how to persuade him, and wiped his tears on the side. Where would Situ Yan have thought that Wu Jin was already in prison, and she was rushing to Henan County with Li Dalang and his party of fifteen people.
