Chapter 789 The fish that slipped through the net
Han Mo squinted his eyes and looked at Han Qing. Han Qing had already whispered: "Young Master knows that Su Yuting's rebellion is also involved in the Volcano Camp. According to the news that Xiao Dao found out, on the day of the incident, the first target of the Volcano Camp was the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion. Tang Mingwu, the lieutenant of the Volcano Camp's Guardian, and snatched the military talisman from Jiumen Admiral Lu Yingji. Then he took over the defense of Jiumen without any blood!"
Han Mo frowned and said, "Where are the soldiers of the Nine Gate now?"
Han Qing replied: "They have been disarmed now, and the Volcano Camp has divided two hundred soldiers to watch." He paused and whispered: "Young Master, we have some in there."
"who?"
"Han Ding!" Han Qing said: "After the soldiers of the Nine Gate were disarmed, Han Ding secretly contacted me, but he found something strange in the camp."
Han Mo looked at Han Qing.
"The Nine Gate Admiral's Mansion was washed away by Tang Mingwu that day, but one person escaped." Han Qing whispered: "Lu Yingji's son escaped after seeing that the situation was not good that day."
"Lu Zongxuan?" Han Mo's eyes lit up: "Have you seen him? Where is he now?"
Seeing Han Mo's eyes shining, Han Qing knew that the news was very important, so he said, "I didn't see it. However, Han Ding saw it in the camp. After Lu Zongxuan escaped from the mansion, the rebels also searched for him everywhere in the capital, but no one expected that Lu Zongxuan was hiding in the Nine Gate Camp now."
Han Mo touched his chin and sighed, "The most dangerous place is the safest place. Lu Zongxuan is very smart." He paused and said, "But he is really taking risks. There are evil villains in the Nine Gate Camp. If he knows that he is in the camp and betrays him, he will be unable to fly."
Han Qing said: "Young Master, Han Ding said that Lu Zongxuan was dressed up in disguise, which was very different from usual. He finally recognized it." After a pause, he continued: "But the generals of the Nine Gate Admiral Palace were almost promoted by Lu's father and son. They were all confidants of Lu's father and son. According to Han Ding, some generals in the camp knew that Lu Zongxuan was in the camp, and not only did they have no informants, but they were also trying their best to cover Lu Zongxuan."
Han Mo sighed: "It is rare to have such subordinates at this time. It seems that the Lu family and son treat people well."
Han Qing shook his head and said, "Tang Mingwu snatched the Nine Gate Soldier Talisman that day and killed many people in the Nine Gate Admiral's Mansion. One of Lu Zongxuan's sisters was killed by Tang Mingwu..."
Han Mo leaned against the wall, thinking, and after a moment, he finally said: "Is there a way to arrange for him to meet me!"
Han Qing was stunned and then said, "Young Master, do you want Lu Zongxuan to help you?"
"Although it may not be possible, we have to try it." Han Mo raised his head and drank a sip of wine: "The Northwest Army and the Imperial Guards in the city are both elite troops of the Great Yan Kingdom and the military foundation of the Great Yan Kingdom. If the army in my hands attacks the capital with all its strength, the troops at the hands of the Su family will sooner or later be defeated, but I do not want the soldiers of the Imperial Guards to be their burial objects, and I do not want to see the war in which the war is tragic... If I have the opportunity to kill fewer people, I must seize every opportunity."
When the two battalions were in rebellion, Han Mo did not think that the Imperial Guards were rebels from beginning to end. In his heart, the Imperial Guards were just strictly abide by the military rules of "obeying military orders" and were tied to the rebellious chariot by the Su clan.
"Young Master, the fewer people know about you going to the city, the better." Han Qing frowned slightly: "Then Lu Zongxuan has never had any interaction with us after all, so whether he can trust him is still a question!"
Han Mo's eyes showed satisfaction.
No matter what, Han Qing gradually became mature and became more cautious in thinking about things, which made Han Mo feel very pleased.
"It is certainly right to be cautious at all times and not trust anyone easily." Han Mo's lips had a faint smile: "But sometimes, being able to trust others can get great gains." He patted Han Qing's shoulder with his greasy hand, "The Nine Gate Admiral's Mansion was washed away by blood, and his own sister was killed. It is conceivable that the hatred in Lu Zongxuan's heart was not necessarily a silence. In my opinion, he might be waiting for the opportunity to take revenge. Lu Yingji is now in the hands of the Su family, and the Nine Gate soldiers have no heads, but Lu Zongxuan is a big good chess...!"
Han Qing seemed to understand something and immediately said: "Young Master, I'll contact Han Ding now to see if I can get Lu Zongxuan out of the camp..."
Han Mo stretched and said, "You go, I'm very sleepy, just take a break here!"
Han Qing nodded, got up and was about to leave. He opened the door. It was windy and snowy outside, but Han Mo said behind him, "Be careful!"
Han Qing turned around, smiled, covered his hat around his head, and went into the wind and snow.
Han Mo went over to tie the door bolt, but he was very sleepy. He returned to the corner and leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and rested. Before he knew it, he fell asleep.
I don’t know how long it took, but I woke up and looked out through the windows in the temple. I saw that it was very bright outside the window, and it was already dawn, but Han Qing did not come back.
Han Mo picked up the wine bag next to him, drank a few more bites, ate some more things, then got up and moved his body, then walked to the middle of the small temple and saw a statue of the Land God.
Han Mo shook his head and murmured to himself: "You are a land, to keep the peace. It's a pity that you can't keep the stability here in a place like the capital. In the capital, people's hearts are stronger than you, the god!"
He walked to the window and looked through the edge of the bed at the deserted alley outside. The snow was thick and the wind and snow were mixed. The heavy snow this year seemed much heavier than in previous years.
When killing people in deep winter.
Last winter, the rebellion was quelled in Bozhou County, and this winter, wars arose in the capital.
There was no trace of people outside the temple, only snowflakes were flying, and Han Qing could not be seen for a while. Han Mo understood that it would not be possible to contact Han Ding and bring Lu Zongxuan out in a short while, and it would always take some time.
He returned to the corner, sat cross-legged, and began to practice the Qi Sutra.
Compared to before climbing Tianya Peak, Han Mo felt that the effect of practicing the "Qi Jing" is very different now. After that breakthrough, the energy in his body has been significantly enhanced. In addition, the five senses have become more and more sensitive.
Not to mention anything else, just eyesight, when he looked at the corner not far away, he could not only clearly see the spider web there, but even the spider motionless on the spider web was clearly visible. If it were an ordinary person, it would never be possible to find it.
Without surprise, my entire body has undergone great changes due to the "Qi Jing".
At this moment, I couldn't help but think of Bai Yelang who taught his "Qi Jing", where is the rather crazy martial arts powerhouse now?
Since he went to Fengguo, that guy has gone forever and has no news.
More than an hour later, the wind and snow outside became less. Finally, Han Mo heard the "crunch" sound of snow being trampled outside. Then the door knocked on the door, and Han Qing's voice came: "Young master, open the door, it's me!"
Han Mo went forward and opened the door. Han Qing came in, and behind him, someone came in immediately.
Han Mo recognized at a glance that the man was Lu Zongxuan. He had a big fuss between children from Beijing on the banks of the Liujing River that day. The two had met in private.
However, compared with that day, Lu Zongxuan looked much haggard, with simple clothes and ungrateful lines. He had not washed his hair for many days and his jaw was covered with thick stubble. When he saw Han Mo, he immediately bowed his hand and seemed a little excited: "General Han!"
Han Mo also bowed: "Brother Lu!"
Lu Zongxuan seemed to have a lot to say, but for a moment he didn't know where to start, and finally sighed and looked sad and angry.
Han Mo glanced at Han Qing, nodded slightly, and showed his praise, and then said gently to Lu Zongxuan: "Brother Lu, let's sit down and talk!"
Lu Zongxuan nodded, and the two sat down on the cushion in the corner, while Han Qing stood by the window, watching the movement outside the window.
After sitting down, Lu Zongxuan sighed softly, "General Han is brave. At this time, he actually has the courage to come into the city. Lu admires it. Now the jackals in the capital are in power, and the father and son of the Su family are in chaos. The emperor closes the palace gate and keeps his troops...!" He looked at Han Mo and smiled bitterly: "There are many days after the mutiny, and there is no army to serve the king in each county, and the first army to serve the king is the army brought by General Han from the northwest..." Speaking of this, Lu Zongxuan shook his head again, looking very sad and angry.
Lu Yingji was loyal to him, and the Nine Gate Admiral's Mansion became the first yamen to be implicated by a mutiny. In order to protect the Nine Gate Military Talisman, Lu Yingji himself did not compromise and even paid the price of his family's lives.
However, the result of loyalty was that the emperor was unable to move his troops.
Not only did the emperor not move, but no army was sent to Beijing from all over the country, and even Zhao Xiqiao, the county magistrate of Bozhou County, who was loyal to the emperor, did not make any move.
Although I don’t know what Lu Yingji would think about these things, Lu Zongxuan was filled with grief and anger.
At least in his case, there was a feeling of being abandoned.
The Lu family paid a bloody price and was loyal to the emperor, but His Majesty the Emperor actually had no response to the Lu family's efforts. He just closed the palace gate and responded extremely indifferent to the mutiny.
Lu Zongxuan is not a stupid person. He vaguely felt that the Lu family had become a chess piece on the chessboard, an abandoned piece that could be sacrificed.
