Chapter 125: The Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit

Weiyang Palace hasn't been here for a long time, and there are many unfamiliar faces. The courtiers looked in horror at a sick tiger, which was sick but also ate people.

Yun Xiao's face was still sallow, but everyone had to make way for him wherever he went. Both the new officials and the old cabinet officials have heard of the legend of this marquis.

Since stepping into the gate of Chang'an, Dou Ying has already received the news. For this sick tiger, Dou Ying hopes that he will die of illness as soon as possible.

"Good people don't live long, but evil lives for a thousand years. What is this guy doing here? ”

Dou Ying anxiously circled around the Prime Minister's Mansion, guessing what Yun Xiao's idea was when he entered the palace this time. This morning, the Yun family's two thousand black-armored guards visited Wei Qihou's fiefdom again. The well-taxed hot spring bathhouse was surrounded by a flood and the steward rushed into the city to report back. Those black-armored cavalry were already attacking the Hot Spring Bathhouse.

The fire that ignited in the hot spring bathhouse burned so much that people and animals could not approach within 200 steps, and billowing black smoke rose into the sky. It can be seen clearly in Chang'an City, and Dou Ying will go to inquire in person. saw that the man at the head actually had Liu Che's warrant in his hand.

"Go and invite Wuqiang Hou Zhuang Qingzhai and Mr. Yuan Gu to come to me."

Dou Ying thought about it left and right, but couldn't come up with a name, so he had to find a helper to help him think about it.

"Yunhou, this Yulin camp has been burned. The whole Hetao was shaken, and the Hun cavalry was gone. What should I do now? ”

Liu Che is as anxious as Dou Ying, but one is for state affairs and the other is for personal gain.

"Yulin is such an important place, and only 3,000 people were sent to defend it. The Huns struck us with a punch. The minister felt that it was not necessary to think about what to do now. Now it is necessary to find out what made the Huns know that Yulin was so empty. And why, the Huns would know that the grain and grass of the army were hoarded in Yulin. ”

Yun Xiao figured out the crux of the matter almost instantly, the Huns dared to send a thousand men to attack Yulin. Then they must have known in advance the number of defenders of Yulin. And it is known that Yulin is a supply hoarding place for the army along the Great Wall.

A familiar name suddenly jumped into Yun Xiao's mind - Lao Shun.

"Yunhou means that the Xiongnu have fine works in the Han faction?"

Liu Che was reminded by Yun Xiao and immediately understood that the Han army was such an important piece of information as the grain land. The Huns actually learned about it lightly, so didn't they know everything about the arrangement of the Han army! It's horrible, it's like you're fighting a shadow in the night. Everyone knows what you do, but no one knows how far away they are from you.

"It must be so, and such a high-level secret as the military food cantonment is not something that ordinary people can know. Do you remember the hot spring bathhouse that I asked for extermination? Taiwei and Yun Xiao and Doctor Yu Shi have been there more than once.

The ministers made it very clear that their former King Wu was subordinate to the remnants of the Tianji Pavilion. By all indications. Now they have been bought by the Huns. It is also very possible to listen to intelligence for the Huns. ”

"Yunhou means. The thing leaked out from the Tai Lieutenant? ”

After all, Tian Wei is Liu Che's maternal uncle, and this also involves the face of the Queen Mother. Even Liu Che scratched his head a little.

"It doesn't have to be a lieutenant, maybe it's a first-class general. When Ben Hou swept the Tangquan Bathhouse, arrested the prisoners and tortured them, he could get the exact news. ”

"Okay. I hope Yunhou can find out. Just those thousand Hun cavalry. And what should I do? ”

"Majesty, don't worry. The 1,000 Hun cavalry ran long distances without a single steady rear. It will definitely not stay in the Hetao for a long time, and if the minister leads the army, I am afraid that he has sneaked back to the territory of the Xiongnu along the same route. The most important thing now is to mobilize food and grass to help the front line, and to keep the front line of the Great Wall heavily guarded. Maybe the Huns would take advantage of this opportunity to raid the Han realm. ”

"Good. This matter has Lao Yunhou. I will order the Imperial Commander's Office to fully cooperate with Yunhou and be sure to eradicate these Xiongnu meticulous works.

The Dongfang Shuo that Yunhou recommended to me is very interesting, I think this person is quite smart. Liu Che looked at Dongfang Shuo, who was walking by with a large stack in the distance, and said.

"How many people will be hired for this palace test?"

"Yun Hou is right, I am full of talents, and I don't need to rely on these corpses to eat vegetarians. This time, more than 100 talents were selected for the palace examination, among which there was a special one named Dong Zhongshu and my heart. ”

"Dong Zhongshu ......"

Yun Xiao's mind reflected a face that was underbeaten, and it had been a long time since there was news of this guy who grabbed his wife with him. I thought this guy wouldn't appear, but I didn't expect it to come out in the end.

"Oh, he's a student of his father-in-law. Counting His Majesty Xià and him are also considered to be the same family, does this Mr. Dong have any doctrine? ”

I replied to him and asked three questions. And Mr. Dong answered the three strategies of my heaven and people. In particular, the great origin of the Tao comes from heaven, saying that all things in the world are subject to the mandate of heaven. Since I am ordered by heaven, I should be in charge of the affairs of the great man.

Mr. Dong also said that the most classic doctrine in the world is Confucianism. Now that the situation of a hundred schools of thought contending makes people at a loss, it is time to overthrow the useless Confucianism that is respected and used by a hundred schools.

I have ordered people to copy his three strategies of heaven and man, and I will preach them widely among the doctors in Chang'an. In order to educate all the people and prosper the Han Dynasty. ”

Liu Che mentioned that Dong Zhongshu's face was flushed with excitement, and he almost had the urge to swing. It seems that this celestial and human three strategies are really his appetite, but I don't know what the Empress Dowager who believes in Huang Lao's learning will think.

"The minister and Dong Zhongshu have a relationship, I don't know where Dong Zhongshu is now. The minister wanted to see him. ”

"Yunhou is late, the day before yesterday, Dou Yuan said that he did not discipline his son well. Hope to retire, really accurate his recital. Mr. Dong has been ordered to serve as the prime minister of Jiangdu, and now Mr. Dong is already on his way to Jiangdu. ”

…… It seems that a sycophancy article can not only be a marquis, but this is really common in the feudal era. I have been mixed for so long, and I can only be regarded as a 4,000-stone general of the town army from birth to death. This Mr. Dong, just by relying on one mouth, immediately mixed a Xiangguo with 3,000 stones. Where does this make sense?

The depressed Yun Xiao said goodbye to Liu Che, and he still pretended to encircle and suppress the Tangquan Bathhouse in his heart. Hurried to the hot spring bathhouse.

By the time he arrived, the fire was still burning. Canghu was helplessly looking at the raging fire in a daze, and Dai Yu and Goshawk also looked listless.

Looking at the flames soaring into the sky, Yun Xiao said in confusion: "Who set the fire?" Are there any casualties among the brethren? ”

"Master Hou, my subordinates are not doing well, please punish Master Hou." Canghu said guiltily.

"What the hell is going on?"

No sooner had the brothers rushed in than a fire broke out inside. The fire was so fierce that it was as if oil had been poured on it in advance. When the brothers saw that the momentum was not right, they withdrew. Only a few people were slightly injured when they retreated, but the people that Hou Ye wanted to arrest were gone. Only a few young singers and dancers were caught, and some servants were caught. ”

Canghu pointed to the thirty or fifty people kneeling next to him and said.

"Oh" Yun Xiao glanced at the servants, judging from their clothes, they should all be low-level servants. There is not even a popular aunt.

"Escape, they must have escaped. There must be a tunnel underneath this hot spring bathhouse, and they set fire to it just to cover their escape from underground. Tiger, scatter people. They shouldn't have run away. ”

Yun Xiao looked at the fire and realized something, and he was dressed in a golden cicada.

"There are already people patrolling the surrounding area, and if they get out of this range, they will definitely not be able to escape."

"Alright, we'll wait here. When the fire is extinguished, find the entrance to the cave. I see how they run. ”

Yun Xiao still underestimated the speed at which the wood burned, and the houses in the hot spring bathhouse were all made of wood. A lot of it is made of hard wood, which is quite forbidden to burn. Yun Xiao waited on the fire until it was dark, the fire was not completely extinguished, many houses were still burning like torches, although the heat was not as strong as at the beginning, but when you got closer to fifty steps, you would feel that the heat wave was sultry.

It seems that these guys have already made this calculation, and the exit of the tunnel must be in an extremely secret place. As long as they drag it out into the night, they are not afraid that they will not be able to escape.

This Mr. Gongsun can be regarded as a cunning rabbit. (To be continued......)
