Chapter Eighty-Four: "Spies" Enter the City

Luoyang City, Imperial Palace, Zining Palace.

The spacious Zining Palace, the decoration inside is extremely exquisite and gorgeous, which is pleasing to the eye, and it is worthy of being the dormitory where the queen of a country lives.

"Mother, the child heard a rumor from below today." The eldest prince Liu Wei came to the Zining Palace, although there were many affairs in the court, he still came to greet his mother in person.

However, when it was said to be an invitation, the first sentence that the eldest prince Liu Wei said when he saw his mother was not a greeting tone.

And Empress He originally wanted to reprimand herself, a son who talked about political affairs as soon as she came, but she saw the wrinkled forehead of the eldest prince Liu Wei, so she sighed and asked: "Emperor, what is the rumor, tell it to the queen mother." ”

"Queen Mother, it is said that this has been spread throughout Luoyang City, 'Seven Star Dream Treasure Sword, Sizhao Sword Peerless'." The eldest prince Liu Wei said with a pale face.

"The Seven-Star Dream Treasure Sword, the Sizhao Sword is unparalleled. Forehead...... What does this mean? When Empress He heard this, as a woman, she was naturally not interested in these swords or anything, and she might have heard of the Seven Star Treasure Sword occasionally, but now she probably won't remember it, so she asked curiously.

"The Seven Star Dream Treasure Knife refers to a treasure knife called Seven Stars, it is said that only the Son of Heaven can really own him, as soon as the treasure knife comes out, all the seas will return, the world will rise in the clouds, and the eight wildernesses will be one." The eldest prince Liu Wei explained slowly: "But this treasure knife has disappeared a long time ago, and no one knows his whereabouts. ”

"Is the Seven Star Treasure Sword so powerful?" Hearing this, Empress He couldn't help but ask with some sighs.

"The Seven Star Treasure Sword is just a legend, no one knows whether he is true or false, but what I care about the most is the latter sentence: Sizhao Sword Peerless." The eldest prince Liu Wei raised his head, looked at his mother, and said: "Mother, the latter sentence refers to a sword called Sizhao, it is said that the power of the Sizhao sword is comparable to the seven-star sword, and it is also a sword that only the Son of Heaven can really have. If the Seven Star Treasure Sword is just a legend, then the Sizhao Sword is a real existence, and it is in this Luoyang City. ”

"Huh? A Sizhao sword comparable to the seven-star sword? And it's in Luoyang City? Empress He was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "In that case, why didn't the emperor find this Sizhao sword, because you are the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty and the co-master of the world." ”

As soon as he talked about this, the face of the eldest prince Liu Wei became even more embarrassed.

"The queen mother doesn't know that this Sizhao sword is the sword of General Yuan Shao, it is said that when he fought all the year round, he held this sword and did not lose a single defeat." The eldest prince Liu Bian's expression was uncertain, and a touch of hesitation was revealed.

"Yuan Shao? This ...... Empress He heard it, if it was someone else, it would be fine, but if it was Yuan Shao, I am afraid that this matter would be a little troublesome.

"Yuan Shao is a general, and at this time, the seven thousand men and horses are stationed outside the east gate, although I am about to ascend the throne, it is still not easy to force him!" The eldest prince Liu Wei said with a bitter face.

"Hmph...... Either way, he is also your courtier. When Empress He heard that her son was so depressed, she couldn't help but be arrogant, and then said: "Emperor, I will make a decree, just say that I have heard about this sword of General Yuan Shao, and I want to see it, and I will return it to him in the future, okay?" ”

Hearing this, the eldest prince Liu Wei couldn't help but look at his mother and asked, "What does the queen mean?" ”

"Return it in the future, when you ascend the throne, you will be the emperor, does he still want to force you? He won't be able to do that then. Empress He thought and said.

"This ...... Isn't that a scoundrel? In fact, the eldest prince Liu Wei also thought about it, but he always felt that it was not decent at all.

"Where is this scoundrel, besides, this sword should only be picked up by the Son of Heaven, so this sword is originally yours, how can it be said to be a scoundrel?" When Queen He heard this, she hurriedly explained to her son that this was not a scoundrel.

Hearing this, Queen He's words all spoke to the heart of the eldest prince Liu Bian, because this is a sword that only the Son of Heaven can have, and now it is held in Yuan Shao's hands, what does this mean?

Yuan Shao wanted the son of heaven.

This is definitely not what he wants to see.

......

......

Meanwhile.

As Xun You expected, there were indeed a large number of strangers at the south gate of Luoyang City, but they covered it up quite well this time, and they did not come in in large numbers for a while, and a team of two or three people came in several times to buy food.

But all this is under Uncle Qin's surveillance.

Uncle Qin pretended to stay in a place and waited for someone, and after bringing these sneaky strangers in, he whistled unhurriedly.

Subsequently, in several other corners of the street, the second, third and fourth children also appeared on the streets of the street one after another.

The four of them followed the strangers all the way, but they were all very well disguised, and they did not let the strangers notice that there was anything wrong.

......

And at this moment, Lu Wei had already come to the official mansion.

After all, Lu Wei is an official in the imperial court, although he is just a Taihang who follows Da Honglu Liang Fitness, but since it is a position given by the imperial court, others still have to respect it.

Therefore, Lu Wei was not hindered from coming to the official mansion.

During the Han Dynasty, the official in charge of justice was Tingwei, but later Tingwei was changed to Dali, which did not affect Dali's responsibility for justice.

If ordinary civilians report to the official, they will not be able to see Dali, but after all, Lu Wei is a court official who followed the fitness of Dahonglu Liang, so naturally he cannot be compared with those civilians.

Moreover, if Lu Wei wants to make things bigger, he naturally looks for as big an official as possible, so he came directly to Dali Mengzhi this time.

"Lord Meng, I came this time to report something to you."

"You also know that I live in the area of the South Gate, but I have found that many strangers have entered the city today, and they all come in through a remote city gate like the South Gate."

"All of them are burly, I am afraid that they will be spies or some kind of rebels, so I have specially come to report to you to prevent disadvantage to my Han Dynasty."

Lu Wei found Dali Mengzhi and directly stated his purpose here.

"Spies?" Dali Mengzhi was stunned, he had seen Lu Wei a few times, but he was not so impressed by Lu Wei, who was not a big official.

However, at this time, Dali Mengzhi thought that Lu Wei wanted to use this matter to establish credit, so he specially bypassed others and came directly to Dali Mengzhi.

But despite thinking of this, Dali Mengzhi still nodded slightly, as Xun You said, what if it is really a spy or a rebel?

If it is true, it is not only that he Lu Wei wants to establish credit, but even he Dali Mengzhi will be praised by his superiors for this, this kind of thing, he also said that he is willing to do it.

"Do you know how many people there are?" Dali Mengzhi asked carefully.

"This is also what makes me suspicious, there are about twenty people who came in today, but they didn't come in together, and they were divided into several batches, and they pretended not to know each other, but I did happen to see them sometimes look at each other, and they are also on the same path, I am afraid that they have a problem, so I have come to report to you." Lu Wei is also a smart person, and tries his best to describe these soldiers who are secretly dressed in disguise as very suspicious.

"And where are they now?" When Dali Mengzhi heard this, he continued to ask.

"This ...... I didn't follow them when I came, but I think there are so many of them that they must still be on the streets of the city, so I'll lead the way and look for them, and I'm sure I'll find them. Lu Wei agreed, because he really didn't know where those people were now, but fortunately, with Uncle Qin and them staring, Lu Wei would not be afraid that he would not find them.

"Well, that's good, I'll go and arrange people, you lead the way to find them, and then detain them first and interrogate them slowly." Although Dali Mengzhi felt a little strange, he did not let go of this opportunity to make contributions because of this.

"Well, don't worry, Lord Meng." Lu Wei smiled.

At this time, Lu Wei's heart was excited, because he knew that he would be able to avenge his clansmen immediately, as long as Taifu Yuan Kui was eliminated, the Nanzhong family would have no backers, and he would have no worries about going back to fight with them in the future.

......

......

Luoyang City, Taifu Mansion.

At this time, Taifu Yuan Kui was extremely angry, because at this time he had also heard the recent rumors in Luoyang City, especially the rumor of "Seven Star Dream Treasure Sword, Sizhao Sword Peerless".

Taifu Yuan Kui sat in the room, took a sip of tea, and then stroked his temples.

"Uncle, what are you looking for me?"

At this moment, Yuan Shao's voice came from outside the door, and Yuan Shao also received a notice from Taifu Yuan Kui to come to this room to discuss with his uncle.

After taking Yuan Shao in, Taifu Yuan Kui looked at his nephew, who was full of heroism and had very upright facial features, and couldn't help but say helplessly: "Nephew, do you know that there have been a lot of rumors about you in the city recently. ”

"Rumors?" Yuan Shao was also stunned, he hadn't been out of Taifu's Mansion much in the past two days, because Taifu Yuan Kui had repeatedly reminded him to keep a low profile before, and he had to remind him every day when he ate, so Yuan Shao was too lazy to go out, as long as he didn't go out, he was quite low-key.

And the most important thing is that Yuan Shao fell in love with a slightly beautiful maid named Xiao'er in Taifu Mansion in the past two days, so he spared all her work and called her over every day......
