Chapter 1353: Loyalty and treachery are hard to distinguish
It's just a little farther, this palace Yin is still waiting for the Lord De'an to come and ask for someone!
"Adults, the little ones can only heal the horses, watch the horses, and take care of the horses, I don't know what else can be done for the master?"
"Actually, there's a very important thing I want you to do. ”
"Dare to ask your lordship, what is the matter?"
"Do you know that His Highness is a beauty pageant!"
Li Mo paused, should he say that he knows or doesn't know!
Seeing that Li Mo didn't squeak, Wang Fu Yin shook his head with a little disgust, and continued: "Originally, this official was ordered to select beauties from Jinchuan and send them to Hanyang, and His Royal Highness Gong will choose them, and beauties will be selected from all over the country to send them to Hanyang, but all these beauties are not all for His Highness, they are to be sent to the Ming Dynasty. ”
"What!"
Li Mo responded to Wang Fu Yin's words, almost dumbfounded, and hurriedly asked: "My lord, what did you say, and who did you send it to?"
"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty asked His Royal Highness to dedicate 500 palace maids and 200 eunuchs as a ceremonial policy, and the official really didn't want to see the people of Jinchuan leave their homeland and leave Jinchuan to go to the Ming Dynasty, so he sent the beauties selected in Jinchuan to Ulleungdao to settle down temporarily, but unexpectedly, something happened halfway and met pirates, and those girls were gone. ”
When Li Mo heard this, he was a little stunned, what kind of tricks is this Wang Fu Yin playing?
Isn't all those missing girls here with him? Why would he say such a thing, saying that those girls are not with him, that would be strange?
Also, he said that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty asked their king to dedicate 500 palace maids and 200 eunuchs as a ceremonial policy?
It's ridiculous that I have never given such an order, what nonsense.
Wait! Li Mo thought about it carefully, could it be that someone over there deliberately asked for these from the king of Joseon in his own name?
What the hell is going on here, I can't figure it out here.
"Adult, the little one is willing to help you check!"
Li Mo originally wanted to find an opportunity to slowly escape from here and return to Daming's own home, but this time, he didn't think he would leave soon.
That curiosity began to haunt me again.
But this time, the curiosity is not just some random things, there are more questions in it.
Li Mo was ready to go to Ulleungdao, but looking at the few people behind him, they were all photographed by Wang Fu Yin for him, and he didn't have any score in his heart.
First, I don't know if they have real skills.
Second, after all, it is not his own person, and it is unknown whether he can use his strength at a critical time.
I was worried about this, and suddenly, a person appeared in front of Li Mo.
And what this person was holding in his hand made Li Mo instantly happy.
This person was actually sent by Jing Anjun to help, so if this is the case, Li Mo felt that this would make his heart feel steady.
"Jing Anjun asked you to come?"
"Actually, since you came to Jinchuan, Jing Anjun has asked me to wait all the way to protect you. ”
Li Mo smiled in his heart, this person is quite kind! From that time, while giving him an errand, he also arranged someone to protect him all the way.
"Okay, great. ”
"We are all swordsmen and have no official positions, so there are some things that Jing Anjun told us to do, which is more convenient. ”
"Dare to ask what is the name of this big brother?"
"In Xia Xu Xiuhyuk, this is Jeon Sang-gyu and Yoon Yoo-jun. ”
After Li Mo and these people got to know each other, they went to report to Wang Fu Yin, saying that the people he sent to him were not suitable to follow, and he had brothers who were enough to deal with this matter.
It's just that he wanted to send the people sent by Wang Fu Yin, Wang Fu Yin responded, took back his own people, and let Li Mo and his party investigate.
Li Mo naturally couldn't figure out why Wang Fu Yin agreed, at first he thought he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of himself, and later Li Mo asked Xu Xiuhe about whether the emperor of the Ming Dynasty asked for a palace maid, Xu Xiuhe told Li Mo that there was indeed something wrong.
So what's going on?
Ulleungdo is an island in the eastern sea of Lee's Joseon, an independent island, which is almost not under the control of the Ming court or Lee's Joseon, but here, there are rules here.
It's a bustling port, bustling with traders from far and wide, as well as wealthy people who want to buy new and quirky things.
There is a part of the local folklore, but also with an exotic touch, there are people from the Ming Dynasty, Japanese people from across the coast, or Russian merchants.
This Ulleungdo is more like an island of escape, with a lot to eat, drink and have fun.
Li Mo listened to the swordsman named Xu Xiuhe say everything about Ulleung Island, and became more and more interested in this island.
After going to the island, the group came to an inn, which was supposed to be a 'Joy City' place, with dragons and snakes mixed with everyone, so even if ten or eight people went ashore together, no one would suspect what you were doing.
A few people asked for two rooms above, if it weren't for the wave of merchants who had just left, this inn would really have no room.
After entering the guest room, Xu Xiuhe was just about to speak, but he saw that Li Mo's face was still smiling and his expression immediately changed, he raised his head slightly and signaled Xu Xiuhe not to speak first, and then walked to the door, opened the door in an instant, looked around, and was very careful and cautious.
After making sure that no one was eavesdropping, Li Mo retracted his head and closed the door.
"I found out just now that although this island is not controlled by the 'imperial court', it is watched by a group of bandits on the mountain. ”
Xu Xiuhe frowned slightly, didn't understand what it meant, and asked: "The bandit is in charge, but I heard that there is no one to control it here!"
Li Mo paused lightly and replied: "I heard that it is not a regulation, it is considered to be a voluntary protection of the people under the mountain, as long as they pay some price every month, they can ensure that they are not robbed by others or something." ”
Xu Xiuhe raised his head slightly, nodded his head and said 'oh', Li Mo said the specific location he inquired about, and several people were ready to act again at night.
At that time, the island is still very lively, with lights everywhere, juggling and entertaining people performing, and many people watching.
But the mountain is already pitch black, Li Mo and others found the mountain, ambushed near the cottage, although the mountain is already dark, but I didn't expect that the light under the mountain can reflect the whole mountain is also very bright.
At least, Li Mo and others can clearly observe the situation in the open air in the cottage.
It seems that this group of people has not been here for long, and Xu started with the disappearance of the girl a month ago.
At first, Li Mo just looked at the various places outside the cottage, a few people were guarding, it was already dark, and those who were wearing dark clothes, Li Mo didn't notice anything, but when he looked at it again, there were about a dozen people in the group who entered the mountain and walked towards the cottage, and the clothes suddenly shocked Li Mo.
Be...... It's a soldier of the Ming Dynasty!
What's going on, how could this Ming soldier be, how could he be on Ulleungdo?
Wait! Could it be that this is the 'own family' who wants to harm the little North Korea?
"Li Mo!
Yin Liujun called Li Mo a few times, Li Mo came back to his senses, and whispered to Yin Liujun and the others: "No one should move without my orders." ”
"Yes!"
Yin Liujun received the order, then slowly got up and went to the tree to convey the message with ventriloquism, and after a while, the swordsmen hidden everywhere also responded with ventriloquism.
Li Mo took advantage of the fire in the cottage to observe carefully, and always felt that something was wrong.
"Retreat!"
Quan Shangjiu got the order, and Yin Liujun protected Li Mo from the mountain while ventriloquist wards everywhere.
The next day, they went up the mountain again.
This time, in order to find out what was going on, Li Mo once again disguised himself as a woman.
But this time, it was he who took the initiative, if it weren't for this, Li Mo really didn't know what other way to get mixed up the mountain.
Li Mo squinted slightly, observed the movement of the cottage, and whispered: "Wait and see, it's not completely dark yet, it's not okay to go in rashly, we have to think of a way." ”
After speaking, Li Mo suddenly seemed to have an idea, so he turned his face and beckoned to Xu Xiuhe, Xu Xiuhe moved forward, and stepped forward with his ear, Li Mo muttered a few words in Xu Xiuhe's ear.
Then, when the sky gradually darkened, the two began to act.
Xu Xiuhe tied Li Mo with a rope according to Li Mo's instructions, but this knot is tied very knowledgeably, if you don't check it carefully, you really can't see the person who is tied up, and you can untie it by yourself.
"Are you alright?"
"Okay, Li Mo, is this okay?
Li Mo tried it, and felt that there was no problem, so he called: "Okay, let's start!"
Xu Xiuhe carried Li Mo on his shoulder, and Li Mo closed his eyes and pretended to faint.
In this way, Xu Xiuhe dragged Li Mo to the outside of the cottage, and the guards of the cottage were naturally alert and stepped forward to stop him.
"Whoever comes, report it by name. ”
Xu Xiuhe smiled a little silly, and stood there, holding Li Mo's legs with his arms, clasping his hands into fists, and shouting: "There is a cloud in the northwest and the sky, and the crows fall in the phoenix group, I don't know which one is the king and which one is the minister!"
This is a black word of the way, and if the keeper were a man of the way, he would have answered, but if not......
Sure enough, the guard didn't know why, a few people looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and their hands are moving slightly, but they are also thoughtful, who is this who doesn't understand it, if something happens, and it affects the big things to be done above, it will be difficult to explain.
Li Mo was lying on Xu Xiuhe's shoulder very hard, he was only glad in his heart, he only had lunch today, and didn't eat anything at night, otherwise he would be so empty and squeezed in his stomach, and he would not be tortured to death!
He secretly poked Xu Xiuhe with his hand, which meant that he was hinting at Xu Xiuhe to move on to the next step.
Xu Xiuhe hurriedly smiled again, and said to the guards: "A few years ago, when I was a pirate, I came to our mountain, and I visited the three masters, but unfortunately, I still had brothers at that time, and it was a pity that the three masters invited me kindly, I can't come, no, the pirates are not good now, the brothers are dead and wounded, and I am left alone, and I came to join here, and I don't know if our three masters are still there?"
