Chapter 609 Whereabouts Exposed?
Chu Ruowan groaned, and then she realized what she was doing and hurriedly ran towards the house.
Not long after, the four treasures of the study were retrieved.
Looking at the four treasures of the study neatly placed in front of him, layman Hanshan glanced at his left hand awkwardly and said:
"Lord, I am in some inconvenience. I wonder if I can ask someone else to do it for me."
Chu Mo rolled his eyes:
"It doesn't mean that people like you are ambidextrous and can't write any word."
Even so, Chu Mo still asked Chu Ruowan to ghostwrite a deed of sale for him, and finally asked Hanshan layman to put his fingerprint on it.
Looking at the selling contract in his hand, Chu Mo nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Lao Han, since you have signed the deed of betrayal, we will be our own people from now on. Since we are our own people, let's go. I will take you to see the world, so that you can know how much wealth I have."
With that said, he threw the selling contract in his hand to Chu Ruowan:
"You can hand it directly to Hongyu later. It's inconvenient for me to hold this thing."
Hearing Chu Mo's words, Chu Ruowan reacted quickly:
"Okay, sir, I'll take it to the lady right now."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Master Hanshan stared at the direction Chu Ruowan left without blinking. That was his contract of betrayal, and it was taken away just like that.
But when he thought that the other party was going to hand it over to Yang Hongyu, he didn't dare to think about anything else. He could only sigh in resignation and comfort himself:
If I follow Chu Mo in the future, I don't have to worry about being hunted down by the royal family. The most important thing is that for a master like me, it's not too much to have food, food and shelter included, right?
Just as he was thinking happily, he suddenly saw Chu Mo walking towards the door.
Hanshan layman hurriedly followed:
"Lord, where are you going to do this?"
Chu Mo glanced at the other party coldly and said:
"I have to report to you wherever I go, or maybe you don't want to follow me."
"How can that be possible? I'm not used to asking questions."
Hanshan layman explained hurriedly.
"Hmph, from now on follow me and talk less and do more. You have to know how to watch your actions. I don't want you to go to the stable in a few days."
Hearing Chu Mo's words, Master Hanshan condensed in his heart, secretly wondering, is this bastard so angry? He doesn't seem to care about a master like him?
Could it be that he was just a fool, or that the other party had some other unknown secrets in his hands and didn't care about a grandmaster like him?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Chu Mo boarding a carriage.
"Lao Han, just follow behind and don't let any cats or dogs get close. If there is anyone who won't open your eyes, just kill them directly."
Hanshan layman heard Chu Mo's instructions. Although he was holding back a fire in his heart, he still didn't dare to get angry until he knew Chu Mo's details.
The driver drove the carriage directly through the streets of Chang'an City.
I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the carriage made a circle on Zhuque Street and passed by the Suzaku Gate.
When Li Shimin heard someone reporting from below that Layman Hanshan had appeared in Chang'an, following a carriage and looking like an errand boy, he was immediately infuriated.
"How could he, a great master, work as a servant? No matter how desperate he is, even I wouldn't dare to treat him like this, right?"
"Send the order, pay close attention to the movement of the carriage, and find out the identity of the person in the carriage. Without my order, don't touch Master Hanshan for the time being."
At this time, Xiao Lizi, who had taken over as the Hanshan layman and became the head of the enshrinement courtyard, felt a pity in his heart after hearing Li Shimin's order, but he still obeyed the order and went to monitor it.
Watching Xiao Lizi leave, Li Shimin recruited Li Xiaogong, who replaced Li Junxian as the leader of the Forbidden Army, and asked:
"Where is the prince now? Is there anything going on in Lingnan?"
Li Xiaogong saluted respectfully and replied:
"Replying to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recently wrote back saying that Cheng Yaojin ordered his slaves to rob famous girls on the street, embezzle the other's family property, and commit crimes in broad daylight in the street with the intention of killing people and silence them. He committed numerous evil deeds in Zhengzhou City, making chickens and dogs restless. , public resentment is boiling, it has been taken down, and it will be sent to Chang'an together with a lot of witnesses and material evidence soon."
"In addition, Zhao Zhi, the governor of Zhengzhou, has been dismissed from his post and investigated for colluding with Cheng Yaojin. All affairs in Zhengzhou City are temporarily taken over by Hou Junji, waiting for the court to send officials to take over."
"After His Highness the Crown Prince finished handling the matters in Zhengzhou City, he took people to Luoyang City to inquire about Chu Xin's rebellion."
Li Shimin frowned when he heard Li Xiaogong's report. Although Cheng Yaojin usually behaved like a demon king, he still knew how to do things appropriately.
But he didn't expect that the other party had only left Chang'an for a long time before his true colors were revealed. It seemed that the other party's usual behavior was the result of his efforts to restrain himself.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt upset.
After thinking about it, he asked again:
"Is there any new news about Yang Hongyu over in Lingnan?"
Li Xiaogong shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"So far, all the officials we have sent to Lingnan will be picked up and thrown out as soon as they get close to the boundary of Guizhou. Even if they send troops to escort, if the number is small, they will be eaten directly by the opponent. If the number is large, they will be eaten by the opponent. Yang Hongyu will personally lead the army to destroy them."
"If we send someone to sneak in quietly, within half a day, his head will be hung on a tree by the roadside."
Hearing Li Xiaogong's words, Li Shimin slapped the imperial case angrily and roared:
"Is Yang Hongyu planning to rebel? Lingnan is no longer my Lingnan of the Tang Dynasty!!!"
Seeing Li Shimin getting angry, Li Xiaogong shrank his neck and did not dare to speak.
He still remembered that the corpse of the last official who had warned His Majesty to send troops to clear up Lingnan should have been hanging on a big tree on Lingnan Road.
Li Shimin, who had not received a response for a long time, said to Li Xiaogong again after complaining:
"Let Li Jing prepare for war with all his strength. After the Turks are wiped out this year, we will lead the victorious army and attack Lingnan directly with lightning speed and capture Yang Hongyu alive! I will kill her everywhere."
"The minister leads the order."
Li Xiaogong replied with a bitter look on his face.
Chu Mo, who didn't know that his hometown was already being remembered, had already arrived at the door of a separate courtyard.
Looking at the closed door, layman Hanshan took the initiative and knocked on the door.
After quite a while, an impatient voice came from inside:
"Who knows where this is and dares to knock on the door?"
Then, a monk smelling of alcohol, wearing a gray monk's robe, with panda eyes, an unshaven face and a red lip mark opened the door and shouted at the Hanshan layman at the door.
