Chapter Eighty-Five: Thunder Rises in the Silence [Asking for Tickets]
"Let's talk about Huainan first."
Liu Che rarely had emotional ups and downs, but his face was obviously slightly gloomy at the moment.
Ru Bohu handed him a bamboo scroll first, and as if he knew that Huo Qubing would follow, he had prepared in advance and handed Huo Qubing a scroll.
"Chen's investigation of Huainan is divided into two directions.
The first is to thoroughly investigate all kinds of businesses and materials that have entered and exited Huainan in recent years, and look for traces of what Huainan is doing. Ru Bohu's voice rang out in the empty tower of only four people.
In addition to the three of them, there was also Song Ran, who was standing in a corner, silently responsible for giving Ru Bohu a hand, and there were files in front of him.
If you don't pay attention, you can barely see another person in the corner.
Song Ran's official rank is not high, but he is obviously valued by Ru Bohu.
Huainan is the feudal state within the Han Dynasty, located in the southeast of Chang'an, the last time Huo Qubing raised troops to attack Lujiang County, which was very close to Huainan.
If you want to thoroughly investigate all kinds of material exchanges in Huainan in the past few years, the difficulty and workload are so huge that only Ru Bohu, who has mastered the secret investigation system, can do it.
Secret detectives first started in the Gaozu period, but the scale was not large at that time, and it was only used to serve the clan.
Later, there was a rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty, that is, when Emperor Jing ascended the throne, and the imperial historian Chao Cuo proposed to weaken the princes and strengthen the centralization of power.
In the third year of Emperor Jing, he adopted Chao Cuo's "Cutting Domain Policy", and successively issued edicts to cut the fiefs of Chu, Zhao and other vassal states.
At this time, Liu Wei, the king of Wu, united with Liu Wu, the king of Chu, Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, Liu Piguang, the king of Jinan, Liu Xian, the king of Zichuan, Liu Wei, the king of Jiaoxi, Liu Xiongqu, the king of Jiaodong, and other princes of the clan surnamed Liu, and launched a rebellion in the name of "Qingjun side".
However, due to the insistence of the Liang state and the attack of the Han army led by the Han general Zhou Yafu, the rebellion was put down within three months.
But the impact of this accident made the emperor very vigilant, so the secret detective was able to grow.
In the hands of Liu Che, the emperor was as ambitious as a tiger, and the power of the secret detective was even more fully developed, quickly penetrating all parts of the world.
At this time, Ru Bohu said: "Through investigation, the minister found that Huainan has a big discrepancy in some inputs, and has now found that Huainan has secretly built an iron armament manufacturing site.
Huainan secretly built swords, armor, and siege equipment. ”
The preparation of ordnance is strictly forbidden in the feudal country, and it is self-evident what Huainan wants to do.
Ru Bohu lowered his eyebrows, glanced at his side secretly, and found that Huo Quzhi, like himself, was also lowering his eyebrows, looking at the bamboo slip in his hand.
There was a sudden silence in the tower.
In Huo Quai's ears, Liu Che's breathing could be heard, which was obviously a little lower and faster than usual, obviously out of anger.
"Beiguan and the Huns clashed before, the Huns can focus on the weak points of my Beiguan's defense to attack and fight, at that time, if it wasn't for the illness to exterminate the Wuhuan team, let Ru Bohu you be vigilant, to inform me, and I ordered people to secretly change the defense, I am afraid that the city has been breached, let the Huns plunder, not to mention, the Huns may also break into my Han border pass, causing a big chaos."
Liu Che said in a deep voice: "Why do the Huns know about the situation of my defense in Beiguan?" Is it also related to Huainan? How did Huainan know about the defense of Beiguan, have you checked it all? ”
It turns out that there are still changes in Beiguan behind the scenes......
No wonder at that time, officials such as the Fan Department made a statement to let Liu Che strengthen the defense of Beiguan, and he never let go, but in fact, he had already made arrangements in secret.
At that time, Liu Che was probably also silently observing the reactions of the ministers.
"The minister is already investigating." Ru Bohu said.
"I've been wondering all these days, why would he do this?"
This 'he' obviously refers to Liu An, the king of Huainan.
Huo Quzhi and Ru Bohu didn't answer, and Song Ran, who was in the corner on the side, couldn't wait to retract his head back into his abdominal cavity to hide, and his breathing became thinner.
"I pride myself on treating him well, after the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, the first emperor greatly reduced the feudal country, so that some people from the clan lived in Chang'an. But I, the imperial uncle, I have always been relieved.
He admired Taoism and liked the art of Danding, so he recruited a wide range of guests, made friends with strangers, and raised thousands of people in the house, and I did not doubt him.
Some time ago, even though I noticed the change in him, I wrote him a letter urging him to turn back.
Tell me why he did it? ”
Ru Bohu didn't squeak, and Huo Quai's illness didn't squeak either.
Song Ran had already stopped breathing.
Huo Qubing secretly thought to himself, and Liu An, the king of Huainan, also knew that his strength was not enough, so he secretly colluded with the Huns, wanting to borrow the power of the Huns to get opportunities.
As for Liu An's motives, the matter of seizing the throne actually doesn't need any motives.
Something touched him.
Huo Quai's thoughts flickered, and he suddenly thought of the writer in the dark...... Is it possible that Liu An was influenced by his temptation?
As a clan relative, Liu An has written books and biographies, and has a high level of cultivation, does the writer in the secret have the ability to influence him?
Or ...... If you can't directly influence, then in another way, can you infiltrate and influence Liu An from the side?
As soon as this idea came out, Huo Quzhi's heart suddenly tightened.
He suddenly realized that he had underestimated the abilities of the secret writer.
How long did he plan this, a few years, a dozen years, or even longer.
If it is a plan for more than ten years, the roots he has taken root will definitely be much deeper than what he has discovered now.
Is what you find right now just the tip of the iceberg?
Huo Quzhi's thoughts were unprecedentedly concentrated, and he knew that the countless scriptures in the war book in the sea were intertwined, and his consciousness coincided, as if he was helping him to deduce together.
At this moment, Huo Quzhi's consciousness was as clear as water, reflecting the piles and piles that happened during this time, in great detail, trying to find clues from it!
There was the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms before, and Liu An's father, King Li Liu Chang, learned from the past, Liu An still dared to take the risk of disapproval, why?
Is he so stupid?
Either he has a lot of dependence and makes him feel that he can succeed.
Another possibility is that he is being pushed by some forces, and he himself is in the game without knowing it!
Liu An and the writer must still have unknown plans, giving them the courage and confidence to think that they can succeed.
What kind of plan can provide Huainan with the confidence to rebel?
Huo Quzhi found that the room was quiet again, and his breathing could be heard.
The emperor also had a bit of a deep groan on his face, and said to Ru Bohu: "I secretly injured the person who went to the sick, what clues are there?" ”
"I have conducted investigations from my family and historians, because I am worried that it is disguised, including Confucianism. At that time, almost all the sects and known practitioners in the world went through it.
I have listed a total of 12 of the more suspects. ”
Ru Bohu said: "However, the minister found that these twelve people were only suspects, and there were no direct clues, so I didn't know that that person was among them." ”
Huo Quzhi said: "Among the people found by the secret detective order, is there Yu Chu?" ”
Ru Bohu: "The squire who is still working under the command of Shaofu? Without him. ”
Huo Quzhi said his name, and Ru Bohu immediately reported the other party's position, which shows his proficiency in mastering the information of all parties and his amazing brain power.
"Excluding Yu Chu, is it because age and cultivation are not compatible?" Huo Quzhi asked.
Ru Bohu groaned: "Huo Hou also suspected Yu Chu?
Among the twelve people I found, there was no Yu Chu, but there was Yu Invitation! ”
Huo Quai's spirit was slightly invigorated.
Yu Yu is Yu Chu's father, and Song Ran also reported to him before.
In this way, the two clues of him and Ru Bohu converged, and they both implicated Yu Chu's father and son.
Huo Quzhi said: "Is there a possibility, that is, the writer, there is more than one person."
So with the existing clues, it is difficult to find one person, but scatter these clues to more people, and then summarize them together, and a complete vein will appear. ”
Ru Bohu said: "If it's not a person, then it's not the secret person we are looking for, what's the point?" ”
Huo Quai: "I met Princess Pingxian's master Qin Qingyu earlier today, and the only clue she provided to the Dao Gate was that they had a technique that could track the location of the stolen Dao Ancestor handscroll.
The breath of the hand scroll appeared once in Luoyang that year, and they immediately followed the trail, but then found that not only did it fall into the air, but there were also people in the team who turned around and attacked the same door, and the Daomen died an old man instead. ”
Ru Bohu and Liu Che quickly understood what Huo Quzhi meant:
"That person in the shadows may have some kind of power in his hands, which can influence others and make people lose their minds?
What you mean is that many things are not done by him personally, but by controlling others to do them. Therefore, the clues are also scattered, and they are not right. ”
"Influence and control others, each family has similar means, but the writer may have mastered a more secretive, invisible way."
Huo Quzhi said while thinking about it: "Lu Buwei, who has become a master of miscellaneous families, has studied the cultivation of the family, and proposed that if the family and the famous family, or the vertical and horizontal families, are combined, it may bring real people into the content of his pen and exert influence on them. ”
If this is the case, then the reason why the writer has always been hidden can be explained.
He doesn't need to do it himself, he just needs to influence others, and he is always from the perspective of a bystander, watching things develop from the sidelines.
Of course, there are definitely limits to his abilities, and it is impossible to influence whoever he wants.
But with its skill and years of arrangement.
There must be various ways and means to achieve their own ends, and power is only part of it.
This man's mind is the most terrible.
Judging from the information obtained by Daomen, this writer has been arranging for at least ten years.
He played a tandem role between the King of Huainan and the Xiongnu, with the aim of making the Han Dynasty unstable and pushing the Han and the Huns to war. This is the way to do it. ”
Huo Quzhi and Ru Bohu glanced at each other.
The other party has been dormant in the dark for so long, I am afraid that many people have unknowingly fallen into its calculations.
Thinking about this matter carefully, it was extremely scary, and even Huo Qu's illness gave birth to a feeling of numbness on the scalp and a sense of danger.
Of the four people in the room, only Song Ran didn't figure out the key, and still shrunk his neck to the side, pretending to be a little transparent.
Liu Che suddenly had an extra bronze talisman in his hand and threw it to Huo Quai: "You hold the talisman and my oracle to temporarily take over the military power of the Chang'an Guard." ”
"Ru Bohu, Huainan's movements, with the detective's ability to detect, it is impossible to have no clues. Do you know what I mean? ”
There must be someone inside the secret investigation who has been secretly influenced by the writer, suppressed the clues, and is helping Huainan to conceal it.
And this person's status is not low, otherwise it is impossible to hide from Ru Bohu.
Chang'an City, suddenly, there was an undercurrent and an undercurrent, and there was thunder on the ground.
Fortunately, Liu Che, Huo Quai, and Ru Bohu met this time, allowing them to see through each other's purpose in advance.
If you want to make the Han unstable, deliberately destroying Chang'an must be the first choice.
The most important of them was the Chang'an Guard, so Liu Che's first reaction was to let Huo Qubing take over the Guards first.
After Huo Quzhi came out of the secret investigation hospital, he took a deep breath.
PS: This chapter is a bit of a headache, I wrote half of it last night, and I was not satisfied, so I deleted and changed it, so I didn't feel good after the last chapter.
