Chapter 1017 Dongliehou, Nanquehuo

At this time, Han Qing didn't know that before he entered the capital, there were already people in the capital who were sharpening their knives at him, intending to get rid of them completely.

Of course, as the so-called soldiers come to cover up water and soil, even if Han Qing knows it, he won't take it to heart. Moreover, he knows very well that sooner or later he will have conflicts with the five majors. It is possible to ignore the existence of the five major sects, but with Han Qing's character of not easily bowing to power, he will inevitably further intensify the conflict between himself and the five major sects, and there will definitely be disputes between the two. Unable to hold back, he wanted to deal with himself, but it was just advancing the conflict. Naturally, Han Qing would not feel the slightest surprise about this.

At this time, Han Qing didn't have time to care about the five major visits. After what happened last night, Han Qing already knew very well that the cooperative relationship between Yulin Army and himself was only superficial, and it was absolutely unreliable in times of crisis. Whether it's a low-level sergeant of the Imperial Forest Army, or a deputy leader like Zhou Yuanai, when they saw that they had a problem with the five majors, they chose to watch the fire from the other side. How could they have any plans to help each other?

Of course, Han Qing is not surprised at this point. After all, people are selfish. In the face of life and death threats, people will definitely consider themselves first. As for the alliance, it is only something that will be considered when life and death are guaranteed. The five members of the Imperial Forest Army who came to the door could not afford to offend, but Han Qing and the others could. Although offending Han Qing would make Han Qing alienate himself, compared to life and death, alienation is nothing compared to life and death. Based on his own experience alone, Han Qing could also guess the final choice of the Imperial Forest Army.

There are so many beasts who sell their children and daughters in this world, let alone people like the Imperial Forest Army who fly separately when disasters come, there are countless people?The members of the Royal Forest Army are not saints, how could they stick to the two things that are not important to them?Therefore, it would be really strange if they did not choose to watch the fire from the other side.

"This is probably the coldness of the world." Han Qing sighed secretly, put away his thoughts, rode on the horse that Zhou Yuanai had brought, got on the back of the horse, and walked towards the gate of Kangcheng.

Kangcheng is not very far from Wangjing City. After resting late at night, the state of the people in the Imperial Forest Army has almost recovered. Humans and beasts have got a good rest. Naturally, there is no doubt about the speed of returning to Wangjingcheng, but it will take more than half a day. In no time, the non-stop Imperial Forest Army and their party had already arrived at the gate of Wangjing City.

In fact, the people in the imperial court already knew the news that the Yulin Army and others were coming back early in the morning. After staying in the Kangcheng Inn last night, Shangguan Jiecheng wrote a letter of divorce and reported the matter to Prime Minister Mo. Then Prime Minister Mo Early in the morning, the emperor of the early court was notified of the news. When His Majesty heard that Han Qing was coming back, in order to show his gratitude to Han Qing, he sent Prime Minister Mo to guard Han Qing at the gate of the city after the early court was over.

Although Prime Minister Mo is nearly seventy years old, he still has a little cultivation base. Although he has almost exhausted his energy after waiting for a long time, fortunately, he can still hold on. When the sun was about to set, he finally saw the driving horse. Han Qing and others rushed.

"Mr. Han, the truth has been waiting here for a long time, and finally it's Mr. Han." Seeing Han Qing's horse walking to the gate of the city, Prime Minister Mo shook his sleeves and said, cupping his hands.

Han Qing jumped off the horse, handed the reins to the servants of the Mo family, and said politely, "I didn't expect Prime Minister Mo to greet me at the gate of the city. I'm just a commoner. Even if I have a big face, how can I do it?" Surprise a first-rank court official like Prime Minister Mo to welcome him?"

Prime Minister Mo smiled slightly, and said in his heart, if it wasn't for the emperor's order, do you think the prime minister would have traveled so far to meet you kid?Hmph, I really think I have a lot of face, no matter whether you rescued Concubine Yi or not, you are not qualified to let the old man greet you in person.

With Prime Minister Mo's status, he was under one person and over ten thousand people in the country of Taichu, but Han Qing was just a common man, and his status was far from Prime Minister Mo's by a thousand miles. , and it is impossible to alert Prime Minister Mo's master.

However, the situation is different now. Han Qing is not only responsible for escorting the princess, but also for saving the concubine. For the royal family, Han Qing is a well-deserved benefactor. Even if the current emperor comes to greet him personally, it is not an exaggeration. After all, the emperor is the emperor, and if the emperor is asked to welcome a commoner, unless the commoner has the credit for calming the world and safeguarding the country, otherwise, no one will have such an honor at all.

Now, the emperor sent Prime Minister Mo to welcome him, which has fully demonstrated the royal family's gratitude to Han Qing. Although Han Qing was a little disappointed not to see the royal family member, but considering the identity of the royal family member, it is not suitable to welcome him here , put away his disappointment, and respectfully replied to Prime Minister Mo.

Seeing that Han Qing's attitude was quite polite, Prime Minister Mo also let go of his resentment and revenge, smiled, and said: "Mr. Han, since you have already returned to Beijing, let me go back to Mo's mansion with the old man. Not a place to talk."

Han Qing nodded, followed Mo into the city gate, glanced at the Imperial Forest Army behind him, and said, "Then, Lord Shangguan and others, how does Prime Minister Mo plan to arrange?"

Before Prime Minister Mo could speak, Shangguan Jiecheng had already cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I don't have to think about it when I wait for Mr. Han of the Imperial Forest Army. As public officials, since we return to Beijing, we should go to the palace as soon as possible and report the things along the way to the emperor carefully. Mr. Han will go back to the residence with Prime Minister Mo to have a good rest, His Majesty will definitely summon Mr. Han tomorrow morning, Mr. Han should not be late by then."

Han Qing nodded again. The Imperial Forest Army and himself had different identities. He could go back with Prime Minister Mo, but how could the Imperial Forest Army go to the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time?Although His Majesty has already known what happened along the way from Concubine Yi, he has not heard an official report from the official. If the Imperial Forest Army does not enter the palace to report this matter as soon as possible at this time, it will be neglecting the current Emperor. When the time comes, When a charge of dereliction of duty was brought down, Shangguan Jiecheng had no choice but to replace him.

Thinking of this, Han Qing didn't hold back either, and those who watched the Imperial Forest Army sent Zhenyun to the Ministry of Punishment.

"By the way, Mo Xiancheng, I don't know where the great elder of Wanjian Villa is now?" Han Qing looked away, got into the carriage of the prime minister's mansion, and asked Prime Minister Mo who was sitting beside him.

Prime Minister Mo said: "The Great Elder of Wanjian Villa is also in the old man's mansion now, the Emperor ordered Zhenxiang to entertain this Great Elder well, how can I neglect him?"

Han Qing nodded, originally thought that the Great Elder had already returned to Wanjian Villa, and only after hearing Prime Minister Mo's words did he know that the Great Elder is still staying in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but everything is peaceful in Wanjian Villa now, and there is nothing for the Elder to be anxious about. go back.

And just as Han Qing was pondering, Prime Minister Mo suddenly smiled awkwardly, and then said: "However, in the final analysis, the truth is only a member of the court, not a person in the rivers and lakes. Did you neglect the elder's truth?" Not very clear, if Mr. Han sees this Great Elder, please ask Mr. Han to say a few words for the truth."

Han Qing said with a smile: "Prime Minister Mo is too polite. We are not children in the world, so how can we take these small things to heart? Moreover, if Prime Minister Mo really neglected the elder, I am afraid that the elder would have already done so." You pat your ass and leave, why are you still staying in the prime minister's mansion?"

Mo Xian smiled and said: "Mr. Han still has a vision, but the truth is confused."

After saying that, he saw that Prime Minister Mo closed his mouth, and the carriage suddenly calmed down.

All the way back to Prime Minister Mo without a word, the elder who stayed in the prime minister's mansion had already known from his servants that Han Qing was coming back, and had already greeted Han Qing at the gate of the prime minister's mansion very early. The prime minister got off the carriage together and greeted them with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Han, I haven't seen you for a few days, are you safe?" the Great Elder cupped his hands and said.

Under the influence of the power of primordial beginning, the great elder regained his youth, and his appearance has turned into a young man who is not much different from Han Qingnji. When Prime Minister Mo saw the great elder for the first time, he was still surprised by the great elder of Wanjian Villa How could he be so young? He had also met the elder of Wanjian Villa at the state banquet last year. He was a gray-haired old man. He didn't expect that he would become so young after not seeing him for many years. He was indeed a person from the cultivation world. Even his appearance and age can be changed at will.

Han Qing turned around and saw that the Great Elder was speaking behind him, smiled, and also cupped his hands and said, "I didn't expect that the Great Elder would greet me here in person. I'm really flattered."

The Great Elder said: "Originally, the old man planned to go to the gate of the city with the prime minister, but the prime minister told the old man to let the old man stay at home. Otherwise, the old man would have seen Mr. Han long ago."

After a pause, seeing Prime Minister Mo go aside and order his servants to prepare the dinner, he lowered his voice and said in Han Qing's ear, "Fellow Daoist Han, did you arrest the five people who came to the door?"

Han Qing was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that the elder would talk about this matter, now that he just came back, logically speaking, even if there is something big, he should wait for Han Qing to rest, but who would have known that the elder would see him The third sentence he said was about the Five Great Sects, thinking that the Great Elder’s Wanjian Villa had a little connection with the Five Great Sects back then, and that Wanjian Villa itself was the sect of the Taichu Kingdom, so he thought that the Great Elder was here to serve the Five Great Sects Interceding, his face couldn't help but turn a little cold, and he said, "Grand Elder, how did you mention this matter?"

Seeing the change in Han Qing's face, the Great Elder also suspected that Han Qing's thinking was wrong, and hurriedly corrected Han Qing's thoughts, saying: "Fellow Daoist Han, don't get me wrong, this old man never meant to intercede for Huangfu Nan, I just want to remind you Fellow Daoist Han, don't go against the five people who came to the door!"

"Why is that? What's so terrifying about the five major visits that you all fear like rabbits?" Han Qing asked suspiciously.

"The five major visits are not scary, but the two immortal things in the five major visits." The Great Elder said with an embarrassing expression.

"Oh? Which two are old and immortal?" Han Qing asked.

"Marquis Donglie and Nanquehuo." The elder said solemnly.

"Dongliehou? Nanquehuo?" Han Qing was taken aback for a moment, feeling that the two names were a bit of a mouthful. When he was about to ask about the situation of these two people, he saw that Prime Minister Mo had already arranged everything. Beside the two whispering, all smiles were on their faces, and they said to Han Qing: "Mr. Han, it's getting late, please follow me to Kongming Palace, the dinner will be ready soon."

Han Qing frowned slightly, and wanted to know more about the situation of the five major visits from the elder, but after hearing what Prime Minister Mo said, with him by their side, it was inconvenient to say some things, after all, he was from the court, and The five great masters planted a lot of eyeliners in the court, so if Prime Minister Mo was the five great masters' eyeliners, what he said to the great elders would reach the five great masters' ears in minutes.

Therefore, Han Qing closed his mouth in time, just as he felt a little hungry now, so he nodded and followed Prime Minister Mo towards the Kongming Palace.
