In the evening, Han Bing returned to Huiyuan alone.

Xiao Anzi, who came from Huafu to help here, was already waiting in front of the gate, and while taking the reins of Liuyun from Han Bing's hand, he whispered to him: "Mr. asked you to go to Prince Ding's Mansion quickly!"

Han Bing nodded slightly, then quickly turned away.

Successfully infiltrated Prince Ding's mansion, he estimated that his uncle should be waiting for him in the study at this moment.

In order to avoid the big inner masters who were hiding in the shadows to spy on his uncle, he first went around the dormitory at the back, and then entered the inner study through the secret passage there.

As soon as he entered the door of the inner study, he saw his uncle Haoxing Mingrui standing in front of the bookcase with his hands in his hands, his face solemn, while his master Xiao Tianjue was gone.

He couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and asked urgently, "Uncle, where is my master?"

"Uncle Seven, he's outside as my stand-in. Don't worry, sit down and talk first. ”

Haoxing Mingrui said as he pulled Han Bing to sit down, and continued to explain to him: "Since the last time those three Ouchi masters were eliminated by you in the Willow Garden, the emperor has sent more people over.

I think he was afraid that I, a coward, would be frightened into running away, so his so-called 'protection' of me became more and more tight.

Those Ouchi masters are not only hiding from a distance to watch, but also often hiding outside my study and dormitory to eavesdrop. So I asked Uncle Seven to sit there and read, and those who were watching heard the sound of someone in the study, so they would not suspect it. ”

Han Bing breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing that Haoxing Mingrui's face still had a layer of hidden worry, he couldn't help asking, "Uncle, what happened?"

Haoxing Mingrui sighed, frowned tightly and said, "Today I received news from Xiaofeng and them from Chongyuan, the great patriarch is seriously ill and has been bedridden for many days. ”

When Han Bing heard this, his face immediately became extremely solemn. Because he knew that the current patriarch of the Yin clan was the mentor of his uncle Haoxing Mingrui.

This incident inevitably makes Haoxing Mingrui feel in a dilemma!

The teacher was seriously ill, and his heart was naturally worried and worried, and he wanted to rush back to visit him immediately.

But at this time, the situation on Dayu's side has entered a tense moment.

Moreover, his current status as a hypothetical prince is extremely special, and he really does not allow him to leave for a moment. What's more, Chongyuan is a long way from here, and it can't be turned back for months.

"What are your plans, uncle?" asked in a deep voice.

Haoxing Mingrui sighed deeply again and said, "No matter what, I can't leave this side of the matter behind and leave you alone in danger." This time, I'm afraid I have to let Xiang'er go back to Chongyuan first, she has excellent medical skills, and she has more research on detoxification. ”

"Detoxification?" the cold eyes flashed, "Uncle Fei, do you think that the great patriarch is not sick, but poisoned?"

"I do have such doubts. Because of his master's superb martial arts, he has always been not afraid of the cold and heat. How could it be like what Xiao Feng said in their letter, just occasionally feeling a cold, and then he couldn't afford to be sick from then on?"

Han Bing frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "In this way, it is indeed suspicious. Uncle, you asked Xiaofeng and Xiaofei not to rush back first, just stay in Chongyuan and wait for Sister Xiangjun. Also, remind them to be careful.

If the great patriarch is indeed poisoned, there must be a great conspiracy in this. That poisoner is definitely a very dangerous person!"

"You're thinking about it right! I plan to let Uncle Qing and Cui'er accompany Xiang'er, and set off for Chongyuan tomorrow. And Xiao Feng and Xiao Fei stayed over there and were responsible for protecting the Great Patriarch. ”

Speaking of this, Haoxing Mingrui couldn't help but look at Han Bing with some concern, and asked, "It's just that as soon as Xiang'er leaves, will there be a delay in your needle application?"

Han Bing hurriedly shook his head and said, "No." Now Uncle Fengshan is able to give me needles alone. ”

Then he continued the previous topic, saying: "The hermits of Chongyuan are accustomed to living and working in peace and contentment, and they are extremely unfamiliar with intrigues and calculations, and it is easy for those with evil intentions to take advantage of them. Uncle, if possible, you should hurry back as soon as possible. ”

Haoxing Mingrui nodded and said, "When there is a result in the matter here, I will rush back immediately." After being reminded by us, the Great Patriarch will definitely be more vigilant, and with the protection of the two clever boys Xiao Feng and Xiao Fei, there should not be much danger for the time being. ”

When Han Bing heard this, he was also relieved. He believed in his uncle's judgment, and from his uncle's words, he could also hear that the matter here was about to come to an end.

"For this matter, Uncle Fei, you already have a specific plan of action?"

Haoxing Mingrui nodded affirmatively and said, "It's set in a month, the death day of Emperor Xiantaizu, to start the final action!"

"The day of the emperor's death?"

Han Bing was stunned, and then asked, "Are you going to do it in the Imperial Mausoleum?"

"You guessed right. Indeed, I am ready to do it at the Imperial Tomb. ”

"But—"

Han Bing hesitated for a moment before he said, "But this move will inevitably disturb the gods of the former emperor, will Master feel uneasy?"

"Don't worry, Han Bing, I have discussed this matter with Uncle Seven, and he fully agrees. It's just that the current situation is urgent, and we really can't afford to have too many concerns.

I have just received news from Beirong that Emperor Rong Yu Wengang is fighting hard to defeat his troops, and I am afraid that he will launch another southern invasion in the next spring.

In addition, the imprisoned King Ji seems to have changed recently. It's just that we have limited manpower in Jeju and have not been able to find out more definite information.

At this time, all His Majesty the Emperor was thinking about was how to get rid of you and Zuo Xiang as soon as possible to ensure that his throne would not be threatened. For this reason, he can be regarded as having exhausted all means!

He ordered me, in the name of Prince Ding, to contact the former ministers and incite them to rebel. At the same time, he also asked me to pretend to be the handwriting of Prince Ding, and forged a number of letters to the left minister, discussing the matter of raising troops to rebel.

I believe that at this time, the emperor will also order someone to forge a letter written by the left minister to the prince. The two phases confirmed, and it was confirmed that the left minister and Prince Ding colluded with each other and plotted against each other.

When the time comes, coupled with the fact that my so-called Prince Ding testifies in person, there will be all human and material evidence, and it will be difficult for Lord Zuo Xiang to escape the crime of rebellion.

It can be said that the emperor's plan is also ready to fly, and it will stir up a huge storm at any time.

Now internal and external troubles have reached the verge of breaking out. If we can't get rid of the internal worries as soon as possible and prepare for the battle before next spring, I'm afraid that the rich country will no longer be able to escape the fate of being trampled by the iron hooves of Beirong!"

Hearing Haoxing Mingrui's words, Han Bing's sword eyebrows also wrinkled deeply, "Uncle, what you said is right, now it is indeed imminent.

It's just that in this way, our previous plan to deal with Zheng Yong will have to be abandoned. Otherwise, as soon as Zheng Yong dies, the emperor will definitely be vigilant, and I am afraid that the arrangement of going to the imperial tomb to guard filial piety for three days will be canceled. ”

"That's why I'm calling you here today. ”

Haoxing Mingrui tapped the bookcase with his hand and thought about it: "The plan to get rid of Zheng Yong must be canceled immediately." In addition, we will further use him to direct the emperor's attention to King Ji.

After all, Zheng Yong's inner secret agents are all over the territory of Dayu, and it should be easier than us to monitor King Ji's movements. The Yan clan's power still exists, and if they want to provoke civil strife at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Moreover, if the emperor is aware of King Ji's intentions, he should not dare to rush to the left prime minister in a hurry, so as not to change the situation in the court.

In this way, we will have enough time to plan and solve the problem of the emperor and the king of Ji at the imperial tomb!"

Han Bing nodded, "Since there is no need to lure Zheng Yong out of the palace again, then I won't reveal Gong Yan's hiding place to Gu Ning." ”

Immediately, his thin lips pursed slightly, and he couldn't help but say with some regret: "In this way, I have to let go of Gong Yan and Shen Qingluo, the two northerners, for the time being." ”

In order not to alarm Zheng Yong, I had no choice but to do so. However, the clues that our people have worked so hard to find cannot be invalidated. I have ordered someone to put Zheng Yong's secret mansion under close surveillance, and I will never leave that Gong Yan any chance to escape.

As for Shen Qingluo, she didn't know that her identity as a northerner had been exposed, and she shouldn't have the idea of escaping for the time being. And through her surveillance, more northerner spies hidden in Dayu may be dug up. ”

Speaking of this, Haoxing Mingrui suddenly remembered a question, "Han Bing, did you say that the portrait of your mother that Zheng Yong got was given to him by the northerners?"

"Whether it is or not, the fact that Zheng Yong colluded with the northerners is beyond doubt. A cold light flashed in the eyes of the icy star, "This traitor can be regarded as full of evil!"

Haoxing Mingrui also said coldly: "In this operation in the Imperial Tomb, Zheng Yong is the first target to be eliminated! Without this traitorous eunuch on the side to give advice and secretly use tricks, His Majesty the Emperor, who has long been a little unconscious, is like losing his backbone, and he should not resist stubbornly for too long." ”

"Master, he has always said that he wants to witness the day when that old faint monarch falls-"

Speaking of this, Han Bing's voice paused, and he couldn't help but look in the direction of the outer study, and asked softly, "Uncle, Master, how many days has he rested?"

Haoxing Mingrui patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Don't worry, since Uncle Seven learned that the poison in your body has been temporarily controlled, and there is still hope for complete detoxification, he is no longer so worried every day."

So when you see his old man for a while, don't come up with any bad ideas, order any more sleepy holes. Otherwise, your uncle and I will be scolded for you again!"

Han Bing smiled and stuck out his tongue, "This time we have to let Zheng Yong go for the time being, Master knows, he will definitely be unhappy, how dare I make his old man angry again?"

Haoxing Mingrui couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I'm afraid that as soon as you leave, Uncle Seven's unhappiness will all be on me alone!"
