Chapter 49: Clues
At this moment, someone came to report, saying that there was a person named Zhong Sun Qi who asked to see him. Gao Yuan listened and knew that Zhong Sun Qi must have found some clues, so he immediately asked Zhong Sun Qi to come in.
Zhongsun Qi came in, first saluted Li Mu and Gao Yuan, and then said, "Your Majesty, Lord Gao, we have found a clue. ”
When Li Yinghong heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he said, "Tell me quickly, what clues have you found?" Did you find Huan'er? ”
Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Yinghong, don't worry, let him speak slowly." ”
Zhongsun Qi said: "After Lord Gao left the martial arts hall, we went around the ambush site outside the city, but we didn't find anything, so we followed Lord Gao's plan and started from the opponent's clothes and weapons used, and sure enough, we made a discovery." ”
"We found out that their clothes were made from a weaving workshop called × Cloth Mill, and that the bronze swords they used were cast in a foundry called × Workshop. There are more than a dozen workshops that have had big dealings with these two workshops, but after our verification, only three of them have the strength to attack Mrs. Wenqing. Yu JiaI ordered a detailed investigation of these three, and finally found that one of them, the martial arts hall called the Qingfeng Guild Hall, was the most suspicious. ”
"First of all, this martial arts hall is located in the southwest outside Handan City, which happens to be in the same direction as this group of people escaped, and we secretly captured two servants of the martial arts hall, although after they identified it, they didn't know the two dead people. But one of them said that at noon he did see a group of men in gray coming back from outside, bringing back a bag of hemp, and he heard the sound of children crying. However, the owner told him not to be troublesome, so it seems that this Qingfeng Guild Hall is the most likely. Moreover, we have already sent people to keep an eye on the Qingfeng Guild Hall, and then immediately rushed to report to the king and the high lord. ”
Gao Yuan said: "What kind of martial arts hall is the Qingfeng Guild Hall?" ”
Zhongsun Qi said: "There are more than 20 martial arts halls large and small inside and outside Handan City, and Qingfeng Hall is one of them, but it has been unknown, and in the Handan area, it is not ranked at all, and we have also had two contacts with Qingfeng Guild Hall, and we have not found any masters in this martial arts hall." But maybe they are deliberately hiding their strength. ”
Gao Yuan nodded, it is indeed a good way to use the martial arts hall to hide these swordsmanship, so it seems that this Qingfeng Guild Hall is a hidden secret force, which is also in line with some powerful figures, who will secretly support or form a group of forces. However, being able to discover so many important clues in such a short period of time, although it was because the Martial Arts Pavilion had enough manpower to help, Zhong Sun Qi's ability to observe, act, and distinguish was also an important reason. It seems that this person is a good person.
Suddenly, Gao Yuan's heart moved, and he said, "Is there anything related to the Qingfeng Guild Hall and the Great Sima?" ”
Zhongsun Qi was stunned, although he also thought that there would be the support of a big force behind the Qingfeng Guild, but he didn't expect that it would be the big Sima Zhao Cong, he is not a stupid person, of course he knows that if this matter is related to Zhao Cong, it will cause a big shock, which is more strict than the confrontation between Li Mu and Guo Kai, because although Guo Kai is a prime minister, but he does not have military power, although Guo Kai has always wanted to put his hand into the military, but the two pillars of the military, Zhao Cong and Li Mu, have never sold Guo Kai's account.
And Zhao Cong is different, because Zhao Cong is Zhao Yuan's big Sima and the minister of the clan, and he has a conflict with Li Mu, which means that the No. 1 and No. 2 people in the Zhao military have completely broken up and moved towards complete confrontation.
In the second year of King Xiang of Zhao (244 BC). King Zhao Mianxiang listened to Guo Kai's slander, dismissed Lian Po from his military position, and sent Le Cheng to replace Lian Po. As a result, Lian Po was angry because he was excluded, and sent troops to attack Lecheng, which triggered a great split in the Zhao military, and later Lian Po killed Lecheng, but he also defected to Wei in fear of crime, and left Zhao completely from then on. Originally, after twenty years of recuperation in the Battle of Changping, Zhao gradually recovered, but this time the division of the military made Zhao suffer a heavy blow, and now the situation of Zhao is much worse than then, if Li Mu and Zhao Cong clash again this time, it will be very fatal to Zhao Guo.
Moreover, although the power of the Liewu Pavilion is large, he does not dare to provoke Zhao Cong lightly, so if he really wants to do something against the ** Guild Hall, he must have Li Mu come forward, so Zhongsun Qi also looked at Li Mu and listened to his decision.
Of course, Li Mu understood what he meant, but this matter was too much to do, and Li Mu couldn't decide lightly, so he also pondered.
But Li Yinghong was a little calm, and said: "Father, what are you waiting for, this matter must be related to Zhao Cong, we should go to Zhao Cong immediately." ”
Gao Yuan stopped Li Yinghong and said: "Yinghong, now the general is a bit of a mouse-thrower, and he has to take care of the overall situation of the current Zhao State." ”
Li Mu glanced at the plateau, and also brought out a hint of approval. "You still understand." ”
Gao Yuan said: "Although the general is a rat thrower, if he blindly retreats in order to take care of the overall situation, it is not a way, not only am I sorry for Mrs. Wenqing, I am afraid that it will make Zhao Cong's arrogance even stronger, then next time he may make a more outrageous move." ”
Li Mu said: "Then what do you think should be done?" ”
Gao Yuan said: "Whether this matter is related to Zhao Cong is not certain, maybe Zhao Yang did it without Zhao Cong, or maybe it was done by other forces at all, and deliberately blamed Zhao Cong to provoke the general to break with Zhao Cong completely." Now the top priority is to find Luo Huan as much as possible, and only when we find Luo Huan can we take the initiative. Therefore, I think that we should immediately surround the Qingfeng Guild Hall now, and if we can find Luo Huan from the Qingfeng Guild Hall, we can also take advantage of the reason if we can oppose Zhao Cong in the next step. However, in order to surround the Seikaze Guild, it is necessary to mobilize the army, and the general can not come forward for the time being, so we will come forward, so there will be room for maneuver. ”
Li Mu pondered for a while, and finally said: "Okay, Gao Yuan, you take my talisman and go to the Yuan Xuan camp outside the city to transfer troops, and every one is under your command." Zhao Xuan, you go with Gao Yuan, I might be able to use you this time. I will closely monitor Zhao Cong's movements in Handan City. ”
Zhao Xuan said: "Yes." ”
Li Yinghong said: "Father, I'll go too." ”
Li Mu also nodded and said, "You can go, but you have to listen to the arrangement of the plateau." ”
Everyone immediately left Li Mu's mansion and first came to Yuan Xuan's camp outside the city and demanded the mobilization of 3,000 soldiers. And Yuan Xuan was also taken aback when he heard about the cause and effect of the whole thing, so he immediately dispatched soldiers and said that he was ready to support at any time.
Gao Yuan, Li Yinghong, Zhao Xuan, Zhong Sun Qi and others led the army and rushed to the Qingfeng Guild Hall.
At this time, it was already the third watch in the evening, and the Liewu Xingguan arranged an ambush of more than 20 younger brothers near the Qingfeng Guild Hall to monitor several doors of the guild hall, and when they saw Zhongsun Qi rushing back, they all came out to meet each other.
Zhong Sun Qi immediately asked, "How is it now, what's new?" ”
A younger brother said: "Just half an hour ago, a group of soldiers entered, and there were a few cars, which were the private soldiers of the Great Sima Mansion, about 200 people, but I don't know who led the team. ”
When Gao Yuan heard this, he also knew that things were complicated, and more than 200 private soldiers were dispatched to protect him, he must not be an ordinary person, it was very likely to be Zhao Yang. However, this time it is also correct, Luo Huan is in the Qingfeng Guild Hall, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence. Therefore, Takahara thought about it for a while, and first ordered that all the main roads of the Seikaze Hall be blocked. Although the Qingfeng Guild Hall is not in the stream, because it is outside Handan City, it covers a wide area, and the scale is not under the Martial Arts Hall, and the three thousand soldiers may not be able to completely surround it, but as long as it can block all the main roads, it is almost the same as encirclement.
Then Gao Yuan ordered to bring the two servants of the Qingfeng Guild Hall who had been captured, and inquired in detail about the layout and structure of the guild hall, and it was clear that Luo Huan might be locked up there.
Of course, the two servants didn't know that they would be locked up, because Luo Huan was a child and an important person, so it was unlikely that they would be put in the prison gate. However, I explained the layout and structure of the Seikaze Kaikan clearly, and also drew a sketch.
After finishing speaking, Gao Yuan said: "Okay, let's start the action now, Yinghong will lead the army to call the door from the main gate, if the other party doesn't let you in, don't break in, just make noise at the door, attract their attention, drag on the time as long as possible, General Zhao and I, Brother Zhongsun and I will take a few fine brothers to go in from other walls to find it." ”
Although Li Yinghong was unwilling, he also knew that the only thing to attract the attention of the other party outside was to do it himself, because after all, he was Li Mu's daughter, and only by making noise outside could he fully attract the attention of the other party and help them in their actions. So I had to nod my head in agreement. So he led a group of soldiers to the gate of the Qingfeng Hall.
Although it was already four o'clock in the evening, the door of the Qingfeng Hall was still brightly lit, and there were more than ten people guarding it.
And Li Yinghong also went straight and wanted to enter the martial arts hall to search, and the person guarding the door immediately went in to report, and after a while, I saw the gate open, and Zhao Yang took a team of soldiers to block the gate.
After seeing Li Yinghong, Zhao Yang's heart was also very nervous, but at this time, he had no choice but to hold on, and said, "Miss Li, what are you going to do when you bring someone to surround the Qingfeng Guild Hall." ”
Despite being mentally prepared, seeing Zhao Yang, Li Yinghong couldn't help but be angry, and by this time, she could already determine that Zhao Yang and the matter of arresting Luo Huan must be inseparable. However, she still remembered Gao Yuan's instructions, so she said: "Zhao Yang, we have already grasped the full clues, the Qingfeng Guild Hall is related to the attack on Sister Wenqing, and now Huan'er is in the ** Martial Arts Pavilion, so we have to enter the Martial Arts Hall to search, you get out of the way for me immediately." ”
When Zhao Yang heard this, he couldn't help but change his face greatly, and said, "Miss Li, who did you listen to these things, I can guarantee that the Qingfeng Guild Hall has absolutely nothing to do with the attack on Mrs. Wenqing." ”
…………
Just when they were arguing at the entrance of the martial arts hall, Gao Yuan, Zhao Xuan, and Zhong Sun Qi led the five younger disciples of the martial arts hall to climb over the courtyard wall in one corner and enter the martial arts hall.
