Chapter 062: Urgent Report
Half a day ago.
Modo Khan suddenly learned that Yega had fornicated with Ebony Fulei, and urgently summoned King Lamulun to come and ordered him to execute Ebony Fulei, and thought of covering up Yega's tragic death due to assassination, so as not to hurt the face of the Heavenly Family.
After King Lamulon left, Modo still felt that there was nowhere to vent his anger, and he still couldn't understand the hatred in his heart when he smashed all the utensils and ornaments in his tent to the ground.
Suddenly, a familiar guard who often followed him came in from outside the tent without a report, and Modo was about to scold him angrily, but he saw a green jade pendant in his hand and frequently signaled him to silence.
When the guard approached, he handed over the object in his hand to Modo, and he recognized it as an ornament belonging to King Tieler, and was about to ask aloud, when he heard the guard whisper in his ear:
"The Great Khan forgives the sin, the Lord of Tiele has an urgent military situation, in order to avoid the eyes and ears in the tent, please the Great Khan deign to go with me."
When he was about to continue to inquire, the guard repeatedly signaled him to silence, and only reminded him softly: "Emergency military situation, Great Khan be careful that the wall has ears!" β
Modo had to follow the guard with a gloomy face, and when he reached the tent, the guard deliberately said loudly while signaling with his eyes:
"Concubine Hongye misses the Great Khan very much, and asked the villain to invite the Khan to her tent to drink, and the Great Khan is willing to give her face, which is her blessing."
Ignoring Modo Khan's angry eyes, he said these words and led Modo to the tent of the red leaf concubine.
Modo entered the tent of the concubines, who had been familiar with him for a long time, but the guard did not follow him in, but obediently lowered the curtain behind him and stayed outside the tent to guard himself.
Only then did he realize that the situation in the tent was strange, and there was no figure of his red-leaved concubine everywhere, but there were two guard-like people on the ground in the center of the tent, both kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to him.
"His subordinate Tiele pleaded guilty to the Great Khan, and the old minister was guilty of death!"
Mo Duo couldn't cry or laugh, and then he remembered that the guard had indeed clearly said that King Tiele had an urgent military situation to report.
Holding back the impatience in his heart, Modo had no choice but to step forward and raise King Tiele's wrist, and deliberately softened his voice and said:
"Old Uncle Wang, get up and speak, you are the most trusted person of my father Khan, don't be the one who will be killed or sin at every turn."
King Tiele stood up with gratitude on his face, and confessed to Modo, and personally helped him to sit on the bed in the center of the tent, and then turned to the other guard, who was kneeling, as if unintentionally:
"You stand by and wait, I'll report the urgent military situation to the Great Khan first."
Modo only swept his eyes over the man, and felt that he was so large that he seemed to have seen it somewhere, and in confusion he had bowed his head into the shadows of the tent, and did not make a sound again.
"Great Khan, the old minister's cronies in the Uro Territory have just submitted a secret report, and someone is trying to provoke a popular uprising by taking advantage of the dispute over the water source between the Red Leaves Department and the Fire Department."
Patiently hearing such a report, Modo was even more angry, and suddenly felt that there was no wishful thing in the world, and such a small matter as a local popular uprising in a small place had to be asked to play so much.
Slowly exhaling, he pressed the depression floating in his chest down again, and pushed the matter back lightly:
"Wuluo was originally the territory of Uncle Wang, and Uncle Lao Wang had to worry more about this civil uprising."
Ignoring the accusation in his words, King Tiele took a crumpled piece of paper from his sleeve and gave it to him, and then said:
"What is suspicious is that before the old minister entered the Golden Horde to see the Great Khan, he received this item from his subordinates who patrolled the cityβa mob claiming to be from the direction of Ulo appeared on the streets of Quanshang City, fighting and looting in the streets. The patrolling subordinate ordered his men to investigate around the city, and there were nearly 10,000 of these people. β
Mo Duo suddenly straightened up, opened the paper in his hand, and saw that several place names of Quanshang City were scrawled on it, followed by a few numbers, and the number behind the Khan's Golden Horde was three thousand, much higher than the rest of the places.
"So many mobs running from Ulo at once?"
How serious is the civil unrest? Nearly 10,000 people entered the city of Quanshang, where the khan's golden horde was located.
King Tiele sneered, and then took out a map of the city of Quanshang from his bosom, spread it at the feet of Modo, and sat on the ground, pointed to the gates, and said:
"Lao Chen also thought so at the beginning, the chaotic people in the direction of Wuluo came from the east, and they must enter from the east gate of the city, so I went to find the guards of the east gate to be accountable, but found that a large number of mobs did not enter the east gate, because they did not report to the city."
"Heh......"
In the silent air, Modo exhaled, his voice trembling visibly.
Because of the strange situation, the old minister did not dare to make a big fanfare, so he had to secretly summon the cronies in the remaining city gate guards to inquire, and only then did he ask the signs. Today's west city gate and north city gate into the city of pedestrians are indeed more than in the past three percent, the two city gates today horse team vendors and wedding and funeral pedestrians into the city is particularly many, because there are city guards who are deeply impressed by this and ridiculed, so remember clearly. β
It would not be a coincidence that there were many merchants, horses, and funeral processions entering the city at the same time, but how can we be sure that these people are related to the mob in the city?
Seeing the inquiry in Modo's eyes, King Tiele cleared his throat, which was somewhat dry:
"The ministers sent people to search within a radius of several miles near the west and north gates, and indeed found the wedding clothes that were thrown away."
"Chengbei...... ...... west of the city"
Modo unconsciously looked at the two gates, thinking hard.
"Great Khan, to the north and west of Quanshang are the possessions of the king of Lamulun, and a small number of the possessions of the king of Ul. The old minister had already found out that the prince of Lamulun had also had a close relationship with the king of Ul......"
"Uncle Wang, you're here again......"
Mo Duo smiled bitterly, and because he was invited by King Tiele to go to Nanyuan to hunt deer yesterday, this morning there was Princess Yicheng, who had just been released from confinement, to the shaman temple to break the fornication.
Today, he had just scolded King Lamulun, and was thinking about whether to reduce the fiefdom in his heart, when Uncle Tiele came to beat the water dogs.
King Tieler's chest churned, and although he had been accustomed to the distrust of the young man on the throne for many years, he still couldn't help the pain in his heart this time.
He unintentionally glanced at the shadows in the tent, it was not that he slandered his old Khan's brother, his son was indeed mediocre and reckless, did not distinguish between treachery and evil, and was really not a good seedling to sit on the throne.
After so many years, he has always persuaded himself to enjoy wealth and prosperity, and to endure the exclusion and provocation of King Lamulun, but today this old horseman wants to single-handedly subvert the throne passed down from his brother-in-law, and that is absolutely impossible.
King Tiele said in a deep voice, "You come out." β
A maid came out of the inner tent, and Modo recognized it as someone from Concubine Momiji's side. And his red leaf concubine was held to the back of the heart by the maid with a dagger, her face was full of horror, and tears were rolling.
King Tiele didn't look at Modo anymore, but just asked Concubine Momiji:
"Have you received a letter from the patriarch of your Red Leaf Tribe, ordering you to find an opportunity to assassinate the Great Khan today, and someone guarantees that after the matter is completed, the Red Leaf Department can enjoy the land of Wuluo, and the patriarch can also be crowned king?"
The maid seemed to exert force on her wrist, and pushed the dagger against her back again, only to see the red leaf concubine roll down to tears in fright, and said in a stacked voice:
"Yes, yes."
