Chapter 128: Movement of the Parties
A night of depression and beacon fire finally came to an end in the morning light of the next day.
After a night of panic, the people secretly opened the door of their homes, and after confirming that they were safe, they dared to discuss with their neighbors about the various movements they heard last night.
However, no one dared to go out of the royal capital after regaining his vitality, just because the city was already full of soldiers with bright blades.
At four o'clock, Mo Wenxuan finally ordered the garrison outside the city to enter the city overnight, taking over the guards of all the streets, and there were 5,000 men and horses directly stationed in front of the palace gate, directly filling the entire street.
It can be seen that Mo Wenxuan has become afraid of death after becoming younger.
In the Li Mansion of Zhenguo Gong, Li Kuang, who had sneaked back a long time ago, was pretending to sleep in bed.
He worked hard in the attack last night, and he saw that it was done, but because he left Song Minggong, the elder of the Song family, he had to retreat.
Looking at the Gongyuan across the wall, he really wanted to go over the courtyard wall and go in to kill.
How could the military department be so decisive, without waiting for Emperor Mo's order, he ordered 10,000 garrisons to enter the city, 5,000 men and horses rushed over, and Song Minggong, who ran away, was a threat.
He and his eldest brother had to temporarily retreat and chase and kill Song Minggong.
He himself even took a shortcut to block Song Minggong outside Song's house.
Who knew that Song Minggong was so cunning that he didn't run home when he was seriously injured, but ran to the palace, and finally fell unconscious in front of the palace gate.
So that they had to give up the pursuit.
He Li Kuang followed his eldest brother back to the disguised chamber of commerce, intending to go out of the city directly, but was stopped by the eldest brother and asked him to go home and pretend that nothing happened, and then took advantage of his son's disappearance to ask the emperor to personally lead the troops to search.
But after he Li Kuang came back, he couldn't sleep, it was really difficult to do.
Seeing the dawn, he had no choice but to get up with dark circles under his eyes, ready to wash up and enter the palace to see Mo Wenxuan.
......
Li Wei is very generous now, as an old man who has been a subordinate in the Zhenguo Mansion for thirty years, Li Wei doesn't know what to do now.
Last night, someone came to report that the second young master had been kidnapped by bandits, and he ran overnight to inform the master. found that the old man was not in the room, and the old man mysteriously disappeared from the house.
He didn't say anything and kept things down.
Early this morning, he came to say goodbye again, but found that the old man was full of hatred and dark circles under his eyes, and he didn't seem to have slept all night.
After he told the master about the young master's arrest, the master actually just said that he knew about it and then disappeared, as if he had known it a long time ago.
Isn't he worried about the young master's safety at all?
No, the old man loves the second young master the most, otherwise he wouldn't have targeted the eldest young master's family for the second young master.
But what's going on now?
Don't......
I thought that the old man had mysteriously disappeared for a night, and someone outside had burned, killed and looted for a night.
In addition, the old man has been mysterious recently, and his attitude and style are extremely abnormal, isn't it!
Yes, something must have happened to the master! This is a fake master!
Li Wei, who thought he had guessed the truth, did not dare to speak out, he was afraid that he would be killed.
He wasn't afraid, he wanted to expose this thief with a useful body and rescue the old man and the young master!
After the brain-opening Li Wei finished serving the "fake" Li Kuang he thought he thought was going out, he also went out secretly.
He's going to the military department to find helpers!
Compared with Li Kuang's anxiety, Li Shi was much calmer.
He didn't tell Li Kuang that there were people in his palace.
Therefore, after Li Kuang left, after he first met his so-called nephew, he looked at this nephew who was still asleep, and directly asked people to throw him into the dungeon.
He didn't plan to recognize Li Xiu. After all, the best realm of acting is to fake the show, and only when he is in the dark can he, Li Xiu, perform the performance that a kidnapped hostage should have.
After seeing Li Xiu, he went directly and secretly to meet his collaborators.
After promising countless benefits, his greedy collaborator agreed to find a way to enter the palace and kill Song Minggong, the elder of the Song family.
After getting the other party's promise, Li Shi left happily, and went back to sleep well before dawn!
In the palace, Mo Wenxuan stared at the thick bags under his eyes and looked at the few Shangshu who hadn't slept all night.
Originally, the Book of Rites was actually not used, and it was useless for him to come. But who made him a scholar? In addition, he was also one of the insiders in the main hall at the beginning.
As a result, now he is very bad. Originally, he was secretly watching the jokes of several other people.
Investigating idle and miscellaneous people, etc., outsiders are the business of the household department, and arresting people and investigating cases is the business of the ministry of officials. Arresting people and trying cases is a matter for the Criminal Department. Town patrols are the business of the military department. Even the Ministry of Works was responsible for repairing the fortifications, repairing the houses destroyed in the battle, and so on, so the Ministry of Rites was fine.
But just when he was gloating, the military department sent someone to tell him that his son-in-law Li Xiu had been captured by thieves!
What the fuck is this!
The most unlucky person became him now, but he looked for someone to go to the Li Mansion to report the news, but it was dawn, and Li Kuang's old puppet didn't appear, could it be that his second son was picked up? His son was captured, and he wasn't nervous at all?
Fortunately, His Majesty is still reliable.
Mo Wenxuan's series of orders were conveyed, and the military department, the official department, and the criminal department acted together, and directly began the round-up of the whole city at dawn.
Yesterday was inconvenient at night, and now even if it is a door-to-door search, Mo Wenxuan will find out the thief.
Of course, while sending troops to search, Mo Wenxuan did not forget the two trump cards in his hand.
The living mouth captured by the Gongyuan has already been tried by the Shangshu of the Criminal Department in person.
As for the elder of the Song family, he had already been sent to Concubine Li's palace by Mo Wenxuan and sent a doctor for treatment. As long as Song Minggong wakes up, he will at least know the strength of the enemy.
As for why he sent it to Concubine Li, it was because Concubine Li was a Heavenly Master Master, a hidden Heavenly Master Martial Artist who no one else knew about except for him, Mo Wenxuan. And except for Concubine Li, who has the same interests, he Mo Wenxuan can't trust others.
After all, he is an emperor who has been sitting in the world for decades, and after calming down, he thought of everything Wei Yan could think of.
But he thought a little deeper than Wei Yan.
Just because Wei Yan was too upright, he didn't take into account some of the darker ideas.
But he Mo Wenxuan took it into account.
Song Minggong is a Heavenly Master and Martial Artist, and it is too difficult to seriously injure him and not be able to kill him.
The strength is higher than his, and it is impossible for Song Minggong to escape.
The strength is lower than that of Song Minggong, even if there are many people, it is impossible to seriously injure him to the point of coma. After all, if there are too many people to fight, Song Minggong will definitely run away.
But Song Minggong was injured in only one place, and he was directly seriously injured, and it looked like he was injured unprepared.
What kind of situation could make Song Minggong be unprepared against a master of the same rank before being attacked by a sneak attack? That could only be someone he knew!
When Song Minggong was injured again, he didn't dare to flee home, but ran to the palace for help, indicating that he was afraid of affecting his family.
But as long as he didn't die, the person who hurt him would definitely not touch the people of his family, which further illustrated his Mo Wenxuan's guess.
Therefore, Mo Wenxuan secretly asked Lao Ma, a close attendant, to send someone to check if anyone was monitoring the Song family, but Lao Ma reported that someone was really watching, so he resisted the urge to catch the eyeliner.
He was waiting, waiting for the Shangshu of the Criminal Department to pry open the mouth of the living mouth, waiting for Song Minggong to wake up. Wait for the person who betrayed Mo Hai and betrayed him Mo Wenxuan to come to the door.
He Mo Wenxuan felt confident that that person would definitely appear in front of him before this morning, and come to test his own attitude, and then test his own tone.
In order not to be injured by mistake, he called the insider into the palace in advance and waited for the betrayer's visit.
"Report, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince ask to see you. ”
Mo Wenxuan's eyes shrank when he heard this, although he was a little cold-blooded and ruthless, but he was also poisonous and did not eat children, even if he didn't plan to pass on the throne to these sons, he never thought of killing these sons, but if his son really betrayed Mo Hai because of the throne and betrayed him Mo Wenxuan, he could only kill his relatives in righteousness!
For the sake of the ancestors' last wish to dominate the world, he Mo Wenxuan will definitely do whatever it takes to dominate Mohai.
"Xuan!"
Mo Wenxuan's cold announcement made the other three Shang Shu who were on standby shiver in their hearts.
