"According to the confessions of those two guys," Zhao Yu was briefing Xu Zun on the situation in the army camp of Yunlong Mountain, "This person called Daozun is Ye Hanchen, the Marquis of Wuping in Shuzhou, who was demoted back then. ”

"Oh?" Xu Zun was surprised, "Another Hou Ye?" ”

"Yes! It's a super big fish! Zhao Yu said excitedly, "This guy must have joined the Xuanmen because he was dissatisfied after being demoted, and he also became a high-ranking figure!" ”

"Yes," Ah Xiu Tsai on the side echoed, "This person must know a lot of Xuanmen secrets, and he definitely has a strong network, otherwise he would not have become a Taoist Venerable of the Xuanmen Sect." ”

"That's right!" Zhao Yu rubbed his hands, "If you try it well, you will definitely be able to ask the big secret of the Xuanmen, and the Queen Mother will be very happy, that reward, hehehe......"

"Hmm......" Xu Zun asked with a frown, "Is there anything else besides him?" ”

"There are still four or five of them," replied Ah Xiuzai, "those Xuanmen disciples are all dead soldiers, and they refuse to surrender even though they know that the tide is over, most of them have been shot to death by random arrows, and some have committed suicide!"

"Fortunately, this Ye Hanchen has no backbone," he introduced, "At that time, he also had the opportunity to commit suicide, but he still hesitated, so he was captured alive by us!" ”

"Very good," Xu Zun nodded, "In that case, then this guy will have a good chance of speaking." ”

As they spoke, several people had already arrived in front of the tent where the prisoners were being held.

They were greeted here by Hu Yunliang, a senior soldier in the barracks.

Hu Yunliang first greeted Xu Zun and others, and then claimed that General Jinghui himself had returned to Hanzhou on official business, and was not in the camp at the moment, so he could not meet everyone.

Xu Zun naturally knew that this was a pretext, and General Jinghui just didn't want to show up.

However, General Jinghui is not playing a big name, but he led his troops to Yonghui this time to carry out a top-secret mission, and it is indeed inconvenient to show up.

"Lord Xu, everyone," Hu Yunliang said to Xu Zun and the others, "The Xuanmen rebel party has always been a big trouble for the Holy Empress Dowager, and I am the first to thank you on behalf of the general for catching such a serious offense this time."

"However, because these people are repeat offenders, if you escort them back to Beijing, I am afraid that it will be lost. So...... What the general means, let's escort him back! ”

Hu Yunliang's meaning is concise and to the point, although you solved the case, but the people are caught by us, so the credit belongs to us.

"This ......"

Except for Xu Zun, the others looked at each other.

Especially Ah Xiuzai's face was unhappy, although this is the army, after all, they are all internal guards directly under the Queen Mother.

It is a piece of cake for the internal guards to take people in the army, and it is really unreasonable for them to want to take the credit of the internal guards.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay," however, Xu Zun said generously, "The general is really thoughtful, and I'm also worried that it is indeed inappropriate for us to travel long distances with these felons." ”

"It's good that Lord Xu understands," Hu Yunliang hurriedly clenched his fists, "Please rest assured, the general is fair, and he will definitely not bury your credit." ”

"Humph......"

Ah Xiuzai snorted coldly and glared at Hu Yunliang fiercely, which means that you don't dare to take the credit of the internal guards.

"Hu joins the army," Xu Zun said, "We won't take people away, but if we are interrogated, we have to be involved, right?" ”

"This can naturally be ......" Hu Yunliang was prepared, and immediately nodded and said, "However, don't try for too long!" ”

"Hey, it's too much!?" Finally, Ah Xiu Zai couldn't help but erupt, and shouted with a black face, "You really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and you just robbed people with the internal guards, and now you won't even let the interrogation be interrogated?"

"Quickly call your general over and show him the edict that the Holy Empress Dowager gave to Lord Xu!"

"This ......"

Hu Yunliang's forehead instantly sweated, although they were all border soldiers, how could they not be afraid of the power of the internal guards?

In case someone makes a small report to the Queen Mother, they may fall to the ground.

However, Hu Yunliang had no choice, these words were all confessed by General Jinghui, and he had to do so.

It was only at this time that Hu Yunliang understood why it was inconvenient for the general to show up.

"It's okay, it's okay," Xu Zun held down Ah Xiu Zai and said with a smile, "It's just a prisoner, it won't take long, it won't be delayed for too long!" ”

"Adult......" Ah Xiu Zai was not convinced, but he had to listen to Xu Zun's words.

"So good, very good...... Hu Yunliang wiped his cold sweat and ordered the soldiers behind him, "You all heard it?" Let's take Master Xu in and interrogate the prisoner! ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, a soldier took Xu Zun and others into the camp.

"Hey, Ah Xiu," Xu Zun pulled Ah Xiu to his side and whispered, "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, people are right, just a few of us, can you ensure that Ye Hanchen is sent back to the Holy Capital smoothly?" ”

"This ......," Ah Xiu Tsai was still unconvinced, "we can give orders to the states and counties along the way and let them send someone to escort them." ”

"Then can you guarantee that among these people, there will be no people from the Xuanmen? Speaking of them slowly, even the inside of your internal guards, is it really that clean? ”

In a word, to the point, Ah Xiu finally stopped talking.

As the saying goes, open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, and the Xuanmen is very deeply hidden, even if it will not blatantly rob people, it is possible to plot behind the scenes.

The explosion at the wharf of the Kuhe River can be seen, and it is not easy to prevent at all.

Moreover, Dai Long and several other guards were injured, and it was indeed difficult for them to protect themselves alone.

Instead of forcing it, it is better to hand over Ye Hanchen to the army, which will be safer. Take 10,000 steps back, even if something happens to Ye Hanchen, it has nothing to do with them.

In fact, all this is within Xu Zun's plan.

The reason why he asked Zhao Yu to contact the army was to use the power of the army to solve the Xuanmen;

The second is to sell his favor to General Jinghui to balance his regret that he failed to lead the army into Yonghui and ensure the safety of Yonghui City.

And the third point is to involve the military and handle the follow-up matters more prudently.

Now, as long as they can pry Ye Hanchen's mouth open and obtain important information, it means that they have completed their merits.

After some thought, Xu Zun still decided not to show up in front of Ye Hanchen.

After all, Ye Hanchen will be escorted by the army, and no one knows what will happen, so it is best not to let Ye Hanchen know the news that he is not dead.

Since everyone else had shown up at the dock, the interrogation could only be handled by Zhao Yu and Ah Xiuzai.

Xu Zun was outside the tent and found a suitable angle to watch secretly.

Don't look at Ah Xiuzai's pronunciation is not very accurate, but he has very rich experience in interrogation, in the face of a felony of Ye Hanchen's level, he did not threaten and intimidate, let alone beat him, but took out a piece of brocade cloth very elegantly and said to Ye Hanchen:

"The Holy Queen Mother has a decree, but anyone who is arrested against the Xuanmen Party, regardless of rank, if he can change his mind, return to the court, and can confess important clues, he can be pardoned for capital crimes.

"And those who help me arrest those who oppose the party and destroy the cult conspiracy will be pardoned for their crimes and rewarded for their merits."

After speaking, he held up the brocade cloth in front of Ye Hanchen for Ye Hanchen to check, and at the same time said, "Marquis Wuping should cherish this last opportunity!" Otherwise, when you enter the Holy Capital, you should know what awaits you! ”

"Ah!?h Ye Hanchen was taken aback, "You...... Do you know who I am? ”

Ye Hanchen only thought that the Purple Sword Flying Frost had already been blown up, so he never imagined that the other party would already know his identity.

"There is the seal of the Holy Queen Mother on this," Ah Xiu Zai said lightly, "Ye Hou Ye should know it, right?" ”

"This ......" Ye Hanchen asked tremblingly, "Is this true?" Can...... But I've already blown up the judge, the Queen Mother...... Will she let me go? ”

"Alas!" Ah Xiu put away the brocade cloth and said quietly, "If you are obedient, there is still a chance!" If I don't, then I can't help it! ”

With that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait!" Ye Hanchen hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered his head in compromise, "I'm willing...... I am willing to surrender! ”

"Hmph......" Ah Xiu Zai first snorted with satisfaction, and then asked pretendly, "Ye Houye, you can't just talk about it, if you really surrender, you have to show some sincerity, right?" ”

"Oh...... Oh......" Ye Hanchen had been completely defeated, and immediately said with a chin of his head as if flattering, "I am willing to tell you everything I know about Xuanmen, I know the inner workings of Xuanmen, oh, I also know several bases in Shuzhou, and ...... And ......"

As he spoke, he said excitedly, "I also know something important, they ...... They want to do a big thing in the holy capital Xuanmiao City, and they also said that my Daxuan is about to change the sky......"
