Chapter 235: The Trap

Late at night, it was still the dilapidated land temple, there was a group of people in black kneeling there, and the old man they were waiting for did not show up for a long time, and some people began to get agitated, thinking that something was going to happen.

"Didn't His Holiness say before that he would gather here at this hour, why hasn't he come here yet?" These people who came today are all spies of the Xiongnu Kingdom, and they have infiltrated all parts of Jingcheng, led by a venerable one.

After one person spoke, the others also showed anxious looks on their faces, it was not easy to run out at this time, for fear that someone would find out, and His Holiness didn't know what was going on.

"Who knows, our Venerable has always been elusive, and if you want to find him, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky, and if you haven't come for so long today, it is very likely that you have been delayed by something." Some of them have never met in person, let alone seen the true face of the Venerable.

At this time, the somewhat overwhelmed door of the Land Temple was suddenly pushed open, and no one cared at first, thinking that it was the wind blowing, because the wind was still quite strong tonight.

"The big guys are all sharp, hurry up and arrest these people, I really didn't expect that so many people would be drawn out at once!" The commander of the forbidden army led people and directly surrounded the entire land temple.

At this time, everyone knew that they had been deceived, but it was too late to run, and there was already no net here, just to catch all the spies.

That day, the emperor also asked for the letter from Doctor Zhang, and directly asked the scholar of Lin to imitate it and issued a summons, in order to wipe out all the spies in the capital.

"Everyone hurry up and find a way to escape, if we can go, if we are all arrested today, then the Great Khan's hard work for so many years will be in vain." After someone reacted, they planned to flee quickly.

This time, the emperor gave a death order, no one can be let go, on a big tree not far away, Liang Mochen witnessed all this, he also received a notice, but he felt a little strange, three days ago she received an order to sneak into the Mo family, the Venerable said to leave for a few days, and he would not come back in a short time.

Mo Chen was also very cautious, he just wanted to observe it again, but he didn't expect it to be a trap, and he was directly calculated by the imperial court, and now there is not even a person who can escape, and the expression on his face is very serious.

"Your Majesty said, if there is someone who wants to escape, it doesn't matter, anyway, it's just some small work of the Huns, so we don't have to take it too seriously." The commander of the Praetorian Army saw that many people were resisting, so he said again, those Praetorian Guards no longer need to be afraid.

A quarter of an hour later, all the people were caught, and those who tried to escape were all killed, and the smell of blood in the entire Land Temple was particularly strong, breaking the previous peace.

"Commander Qiyu, his subordinates have just counted, and there is a little discrepancy with the number given by the emperor, it seems that there are four people missing." The secret guards around the emperor were really powerful, and it only took a few days to investigate this matter clearly.

The commander of the forbidden army asked people to search back and forth, but they didn't find anyone again, thinking that those people might have heard some rumors, and they had already left early, even if they waited here, it would be useless.

"It's just just four people, so they can't help it, it's too long, let's bring these people back now, and report to Your Majesty truthfully." What the commander said was right, there were more than 50 people in the capital alone, but four of them were not caught, and it was really nothing.

After the emperor got the news, he specially asked people to summon Mo Chenyi and Han Yuzhi, mainly because the emperor felt that Mo Chen was also a young man who could be cultivated, and when there was nothing to do these days, he would summon him into the palace.

"It's so late, the emperor still wants to summon you into the palace, is there something wrong?" When Mrs. Mo heard the news, she was also nervous, for fear that something would happen to her son and son-in-law.

The father-in-law who came over to deliver the decree didn't say much, so Mo Chen didn't know what the emperor meant by this move, but in order not to worry his mother, he was still trying to comfort him.

"It shouldn't be a big deal, don't worry, mother, it's not me and Ranchen, fortunately he didn't go back today." Mo Chen is not a liar, and he doesn't know how to comfort Mrs. Mo, but the two of them entered the palace together, and they took care of each other.

No matter how unwilling Mrs. Mo is, she has to let the two of them enter the palace, no matter what time it is, it is difficult to disobey the imperial order, she is a woman, and which one can do is really limited.

"It's been a long time since your father has heard from you, and I don't know what the situation is now!" Mrs. Mo couldn't help but think of her husband, in that kind of place where the sword doesn't have long eyes, he may lose his life at any time.

Like the current situation, it is a little difficult not to make people think about it, Mo Chen's hand to arrange his sleeves suddenly stopped, if this is really his father's business, he doesn't dare to imagine it at all.

"Don't think about it, I've already asked Duan Yan to go, please ask my sister to come back, I can rest assured with her by my side." Mo Chen also suppressed the panic in his heart, and did not dare to delay the hour any longer.

If this was in normal times, Mo Xiao would definitely not want to get up, after hearing that her brother and Han Yuzhi were going to enter the palace, she immediately had the spirit, and when she looked out through the window, it was still pitch black.

"Mu Yan's hair can be pulled up at will, how can there be so much attention, hurry up and get some cold water!" Seeing that Mu Yan was still struggling with which head to wear, Mo Xiao began to get anxious.

is also afraid that he will doze off, and washing his face with cold water can make people wake up instantly, after Mu Yan heard it, he could only put down the things in his hand and hurry to get cold water.

After Mrs. Mo saw her daughter, she finally let go of a hanging heart, she could be regarded as having seen a lot of winds and waves, in order not to let herself think cranky, Mrs. Mo kept talking to her daughter.

"You kid is really, it's getting cold day by day, why don't you let someone bring a cloak when you go out?" Only then did Mrs. Mo notice that her daughter's hands were red from the cold.

Mo Xiao is not frozen, it is frozen when she washes her face with cold water, she didn't expect that she is so delicate, it has been so long, and she is still a little red.

"Mother, don't worry about me, my daughter doesn't feel cold at all, go back to get the cloak before Qingyi, do you want to use some supper?" After I got up from sleep, my stomach began to rumble.

Mrs. Mo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly instructed Liao's mother to cook noodles.
