Chapter 221: Mother and son meet
As soon as Ba Hu heard this, he couldn't hold back anymore, ran directly to Han Qing's side, directly threw Han Qing's teacup to the ground, grabbed Han Qing's collar, and said with a gloomy face: "If you dare to touch my mother, I will turn you upside down." ”
"Oh. Is it? Han Qing straightened his sleeves and said unhurriedly.
"Then we'll see!" Ba Hu left this sentence and left without looking back.
The next day, Bahu entered the palace early in the morning and asked to see the king, but before he could enter the palace, he was stopped by the guards.
Ba Hu asked with a puzzled face, "What are you doing here?" “”
The guard said: "The eldest prince has an order, saying that the king needs to meditate and cultivate, so he will not see anyone again, and if there is a need, he will go directly to the eldest prince's mansion to discuss." ”
Ba Hu asked with a grim face: "Then don't you even see me, the second prince?" Or is this order given by the great prince, not the king? ”
The guard said helplessly: "Second prince, please stop your anger, we are also following the orders from above, and please don't embarrass us." ”
Ba flicked his sleeves and said, "This prince is not embarrassed for you, then please tell the people above you, don't know how to die!"
Ba Hu left the palace in a rage.
But before Bahu returned to the house, he met a person, and that person was Mr. Tsuru who he had met before.
Mr. Crane saluted Ba Hu, and then said, "If you need anything, I can help you, you can rest assured, I don't need any remuneration, the Chamber of Commerce can find me,"
Ba Hu asked with a puzzled face: "Mr. He, you have already helped me once before, and this time you want to lend a helping hand, but Mr. Crane neither seeks fame nor profit, why do you want to help me with this?" Isn't it true that Khan Qing's odds of winning should be greater? I don't have any backing. ”
Because Bahu's mother is a big man, the people of the royal court naturally don't take her to heart, and they don't have some backers or relationships to rely on, so Bahu has no confidence in this battle for the throne, and the reason why he will come back is that he can't rest assured that his mother can't let him run away alone, so he naturally can't do it.
But now, Mr. Crane took the initiative to show favor to Bahu, neither seeking fame nor profit, which made Bahu very incomprehensible. Why did Mr. Tsuru help himself?
Ba Hu didn't hide his thoughts, after all, it was better to be safe at this critical time, so he asked directly: "I don't know why Mr. Crane frequently lends a helping hand to me?" ”
Mr. He smiled: "It's all about repaying your mother's favor." ”
Ba Hu was even more puzzled: "Why do you want to repay my mother's favor?" Does Mr. He know my mother? ”
Go back 20 years.
At that time, Bahu's mother had not yet been sold, and her life was very difficult, and she was often beaten by her husband. One day because Mr. Crane was chased and killed, at that time Mr. Crane had just begun to develop his own power, and was hunted down by the enemy, at that time he was framed and betrayed by the people around him, and was seriously injured, and met Bahu's mother while hiding.
Bahu's mother hid Mr. Crane in a cave not far from her home, took care of him, and when Mr. Crane recovered, she wanted Bahu's mother to go with her, but Bahu's mother did not agree.
Therefore, Mr. Crane made a promise to Bahu's mother that if he needed his help one day, he would die of it.
Mr. Crane told Bahu about his past, and then said to him: "Last time, I told you that you don't have to worry about your mother, I got in touch with your mother at that time, and now I have sent someone to protect her, you don't have to worry. ”
Hearing Mr. Crane's words, the big stone in Ba Hu's heart fell to the ground: "Thank you Mr. Crane for coming to the rescue." ”
"You don't have to be so polite, what are you going to do recently, Khan Qing's power is still quite big." Mr. Crane always felt that this matter was not easy to handle, so he hurriedly asked Ba Hu what to do next.
"Mr. Tsuru, please move, after all, this place is full of people." After that, Ba Hu led Mr. He to a teahouse, and the tea fell.
"It can be seen that you still have some of your own preparations, but I just don't know what you are going to do in this matter, however, I have an ugly sentence in front of me, my Chamber of Commerce will not participate in this struggle, after all, the Chamber of Commerce is not mine alone, but my own private industry can help." Mr. Crane looked at the surroundings of Xia Guan, and then said to Ba Hu.
"That's nature, and Bahu naturally won't let Mr. Crane fall into a dilemma." Bahu assured Mr. Tsuru.
"So what's your strategy, and is there anything you need my help with?" Mr. Crane looked at Ba Hu's confident appearance and then asked.
"Han Qing said that the king was seriously ill, but he did not allow everyone to go in to visit, saying that it was disturbing his father's rest, but whether it was the king's order or Han Qing's own order, we don't know." Immediately afterwards, Bahu said: "Therefore, I suspect that the king's illness this time must have been done by Khan Qing. ”
"I don't have a henchman by the king's side, and I don't know what the specific situation is, so I don't know if Mr. Crane has a way." Ba Hu thought that Mr. Crane had someone to protect him by his mother's side, and wondered if Mr. Crane could find out a little bit of news.
As soon as Mr. Crane heard this, he understood in his heart, and then said to Bahu: "You wait for me for two days, and after two days, I will find out the specific situation and tell you." ”
"Thank you, Mr. He, then I will leave first, there are still some things that need to be arranged by me." After saying that, Ba Hu left the teahouse.
The second prince's house.
"Hab, our own sphere of influence needs to be re-planned, turned into small, scattered all the idle guards everywhere, and found out what happened to the enemy during this period of time within two days, as well as everyone's attitude towards the eldest prince taking power." Ba Hu has arranged the events of the past two days, and he must have full confidence in this battle.
Two days later, Mr. Crane came to the teahouse and said to Bahu: "The king's serious illness is extremely fierce, and the person falls ill at once, and the eldest prince seems to have expected it, so I guess that this matter is inseparable from the prince, so I have installed a few famous doctors in it, you can rest assured, these are loyal people, just wait until they find out about the matter." ”
"Mr. Crane is really clever, arranged things for me, I recently inquired and learned that everyone has long been suspicious of Wang's serious illness, and Han Qing snatched power extremely quickly, which makes people suspicious, and some of Han Qing's unreasonable practices are also criticized.
After seizing power, Khan Qing began to suppress those who were dissatisfied with him, and began to accumulate wealth, causing a lot of complaints.
Ba Hu then said: "If the father can wake up, then everything will be solved, after all, the people who support Han Qing will still be afraid of the king, the king hates infighting the most, if the king knows that his son has killed him, then Han Qing does not need us to take action, and the king will not let him have good fruit to eat." ”
Ba Hu thought for a while, and then said: "But the most troublesome thing now is that we can't get in touch with the king and my mother, and we don't know what the specific situation is. ”
"Your mother wants to see you very much when she learns that you have returned, but you also know that taking care of the king is actually equivalent to putting her under house arrest." By the way, Mr. Tsuru seemed to suddenly think of something: "Your mother can't get out, we can go in."
Although it is closed, there will still be people coming and going, but these personnel have been fixed, and the sudden placement of new people will naturally attract attention, and the ingredients supplied inside are an agricultural bank of our Chamber of Commerce, and I can hide you inside, so that you can go in without knowing it. ”
"Yes, thank you Mr. Crane for your help, I will never forget this kindness." Bahu is very grateful to Mr. Crane for his help.
Ba Hu wore the clothes of a vegetable farmer and went to the Agricultural Bank under the leadership of Mr. He, found the leader, and said to the leader: "You don't care who he is, just let him hide in the vegetables and send him in, and bring him back the next day." I'm sorry for you. ”
The leader hurriedly said: "You are tormenting me, if it weren't for your help at that time, I would still be just a small vegetable farmer, where will there be today's income, I will definitely bring him in completely and bring it back to you." ”
"I'm tired." Bahu said to the leader.
The leader took Ba Hu to the cart loaded with vegetables and asked him to lie down on the partition inside, "Little brother, I have wronged you to lie in it today, and you must not make any noise." ”
"Okay, thank you." After thanking him, he entered the partition.
When they met the guards who were inspecting, everyone was familiar with each other, so they hurriedly let the vegetable farmer in, and when they arrived in the kitchen, when they were unloading the vegetables, Ba Hu slipped away while everyone was busy.
Although Bahu has not lived in the Xiongnu for so long, but when he was a child, he grew up here, and he is still very familiar with the layout here, after bypassing a few guards, Bahu came to the palace where the king is, but there are guards outside layer by layer, and there is no way for Bahu to go in
When it was almost dark, Ba Hu suddenly saw that he thought the guards were going in the direction of the latrine, so he hurriedly chased after him, knocked the guards unconscious in the hut and tied them up and threw them to an inconspicuous place, and then changed into the guard's clothes and walked in the direction of the dormitory.
As soon as he arrived at the dormitory, he didn't stand for a while, and the palace door was suddenly opened, and a beautiful woman came out of it, but her expression was a little haggard, and her eyes suddenly became hot, and she finally saw her mother.
As if she had a heart, she happened to look in the direction of Ba Hu, and when she saw that it was her son, her eyes were hot, so she put the basin in Ba Hu's hand, "Go and get a plate of hot water, and then send it directly to the dormitory." ”
"Yes."
Bahu took the basin and walked towards the kitchen.
