Chapter 24 Confiscation of "criminal" tools

Mo Shaoheng bid farewell to that uncle, and then walked outside the palace.

The entrance of the palace is very lively.

People are not allowed to gather here, they just passed by pretendingly, and then surrounded Mo Shaoheng when they saw Mo Shaoheng coming out.

Today's incident in the Golden Palace, after such a long period of fermentation, some news has spread to the market.

It was the first time they had seen such a treacherous and evil person escape the judgment of everyone in such a grand manner.

Mo Shaoheng was also taken aback when he looked at the heads of people who surrounded him immediately, again?

But before everyone could speak, a team drove over from the crowd.

The team is divided into two rows, all in armor, and there is a carriage in the team with an eagle flag hanging on it.

If it was 20 years ago, Beiliang people should be very familiar with this eagle flag, it is the flag of Beiliang falconers.

Although the Zhenbei Palace no longer leads the army, but because of previous contributions, the saint promised that the Zhenbei Palace can continue to keep the eagle flag.

There was a sensation for a while.

The people who were going to curse could not open their mouths, especially those old people. This eagle flag represents the countless men from Beiliang who died for the country, and represents the Zhenbei Palace where only one son died.

His throat was so congested that he couldn't swear any harsh words.

How could they scold the only orphan of the Mo family before the eagle flag.

Some people are still wondering, "What's going on here?"

Someone sighed, "On the eagle flag is the blood of my son from Beiliang. He is the loyal soul of the whole family of Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. You can't scold or humiliate him."

"Speaking of which, if Mo Shaoheng had led the way with the eagle flag from the beginning, he wouldn't have these troubles later on."

"He would rather face the accusations of thousands of people, but also keep the last dignity of Eagle Flag."

His expression was extremely complicated.

At this time, the curtain on the carriage was lifted, and Nan Yi's head stuck out, "Master, here, here."

Mo Shaoheng walked over, got into the carriage, and looked at the people of Liangjing with complicated expressions around him, it seemed that he would feel a little bit offended if he didn't say anything.

After pondering for a while, he opened his mouth and said, "I am from Beiliang. From the moment I was born, I have never let down this eagle flag and the loyalty of my Mo family."

After a while, someone among the people murmured, "But...you never came back after you went to Nanli."

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

From the very beginning, his plan was to clarify the saint's innocence in front of the court. As for the misunderstanding of these people about him, he didn't really care that much, because he was the eldest son of the Zhenbei Palace. No matter what these people thought, he still Can live comfortably.

But looking at these people under the eagle flag, they tried their best to hold back the anger and insults in their hearts. If he didn't do something, he would always feel that Mo Shaoheng had made the eagle flag lose its original color. Although he has a clear conscience, the fact is that he shamed Yingqi.

Mo Shaoheng raised his head, "Why didn't I go back to Beiliang? You want an answer, so I will give you an answer now."

Everyone was taken aback, what?Now give them the answer? What do you mean?

The carriage began to move slowly, and everyone followed behind the carriage involuntarily.

On the way, Mo Shaoheng was talking to an old soldier next to the carriage from time to time, as if he was confirming something, if he looked carefully, he would definitely find that this old soldier was the one who sold cooking cakes a few days ago.

The carriage did not drive to the residence of the Prince of Zhenbei, but walked on the Zouma Avenue, and then turned into the alley next to it.

He stopped in front of the mansion of the Huangmen servant of the Ministry of Rites.

Everyone was stunned, what is Mo Shaoheng doing?

Mo Shaoheng didn't get out of the car, but asked the veteran to knock on the door with an eagle flag.

The housekeeper who opened the door was also stunned, what's going on?There are many people outside.

The veteran handed over the eagle flag, "Give it to your lord, just say... the old wrinkled eagle came back with a bad name, and your lord naturally knows what to do."

housekeeper:"……"

Naturally know what to do?

The butler walked back suspiciously holding the small flag.

After waiting for a long time, the servant of the Huangmen didn't come out, but...

Crying voices came from the mansion.

Across the door, one side is quiet, while the other side has already cried once.

The door of the mansion was pushed open by the veteran, and the scene in front of them made everyone shrink their eyes.

On the gate, there is a three-foot white silk, and a middle-aged man hangs on the gate.

died.

In the end, the servant of Huangmen didn't dare to go out of that gate to meet Mo Shaoheng, but hanged himself on the gate of his own house.There was an uproar.

why?Mo Shaoheng just came to visit with the eagle flag, why didn't he enter the door, and the host hanged himself instead.

Mo Shaoheng fell silent, looked at the corpse hanging from the door, and finally said, "Why bother?"

I just wanted him to come out and talk about it. I heard that he is a person who values ​​etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame.

Everyone was astonished to the extreme, and someone also discovered some clues, "The servant of the Huangmen seems to be the chief officer of the mission that went to Nanli with Mo Shaoheng back then."

But he has no reason to hang himself?

Why?

At this time, Mo Shaoheng said, "You all ask me why I went to Nanli and never came back, this is the answer..."

"It's not that I don't want to come back, but that I... was abandoned in Nanli by your own hands."

"Let me ask you, how do you let an abandoned ten-year-old child come back here after traveling through thousands of mountains and rivers?"

"If you don't believe me, there are still a few officials from the original mission. See if they dare to face me and the eagle flag in my hand."

Needle drop can be heard all around.

Don't believe it?

They saw with their own eyes that the servant of the Huangmen was holding an eagle flag and died in a place separated from them. What's more, Mo Shaoheng said that he could go to the remaining envoys to confront him.

Whether it's shame, fear of crime, or shameless facing Mo Shaoheng who is holding an eagle flag, it all proves that Mo Shaoheng's words are true.

My heart was very depressed.

What they heard the most was that Mo Shaoheng was greedy for wealth and honor, so he didn't come back.

What they scolded the most was Mo Shaoheng's betrayal of loyalty.

But never thought it would be like this.

This result has a huge impact.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, he had wanted to do this for a long time, but it was a pity that he had to go to the palace to clarify, just as soon as he came out, he came directly to settle the matter of the year, and the debt owed to him must be repaid eventually.

……

The second-rank official of the Ministry of Rites hanged himself, and the speed of news spread can be imagined.

The people who got the news felt extremely complicated.

"Although Mo Shaoheng defeated Beiliang, it was I, Beiliang who defeated him first."

"His sin is unforgivable, but not necessarily unforgivable."

The news also spread to the mansions of the adults in the Beiliang court.

"It turns out that what Mo Shaoheng said in the Golden Palace today that he was abandoned in Nanli was not a miserable lie."

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame. As an official of the Ministry of Rites, he abandoned the only orphan of the Mo family in a foreign country. Maybe he died.

I don't know where the servant of the Huangmen got so much courage.

No one suspected the crown prince Zhao Lan, because the original Zhao Lan...was too young.

Mo Shaoheng looked in one direction, should he also send an eagle flag there?

In the end, after thinking about it, I decided to forget it, otherwise the matter would really not be able to end. The chief officer of the mission had already died. Apart from being ashamed and shameless to face him, there may be another reason. There is no proof of death.

In other words, if he came to the door now, not only would he not be able to kill the other party, but he might even cause a commotion.

If he guessed right, at this moment, most of the other officials of the Ministry of Rites who knew the truth back then are probably dead bodies now.

Sighed.

The carriage drove on the Zouma Avenue again.

Nan Yi was joking with the veteran beside the car, "Uncle, don't you sell pancakes? The pancakes you baked are too hard, so I'm teething."

He fled from Nanli to Beiliang, and all the way he ate biscuits, he had the most right to speak, and he remembered clearly where the biscuits were delicious.

Mo Shaoheng stretched out his hand and flicked Nan Yi's forehead. It's been a long time since he "cleaned up" Nan Yi. Those monster moths who ruled the sky before this boy are probably about to show up again.

At this time, the street suddenly became chaotic. The guard beside the carriage pulled out a knife and slashed in the air. For some reason, swarms of bees appeared in the air, stinging anyone they saw.

Nan Yi stretched out his head to take a look, then retracted, "Master, it's Nanli's assassin's method."

"There is a person named Fengchao in the Nanli Mission, who is good at a very strange assassination method. He smears the poison on the tail needles of bees and uses it to stab people. Mountain dew, but I know it."

Mo Shaoheng said "Oh", he didn't know about this person, he was indeed hiding it deep enough, and luckily Nan Yi was usually most interested in these weird things.

However, this method was used to assassinate him?

Using bees as weapons is indeed tricky, even swords are not easy to hurt, but it is useless to him.

Stroking the guqin, the sound of the piano was transmitted from the carriage to the chaotic streets.

The sound of the piano sounded very pleasant, but it made people's heart tighten like thunder, as if something in the body was about to burst.

If everyone just felt a little tightness in the chest and shortness of breath, those bees would die, and they would fall to the ground one by one, and there was a big pile in front of the carriage.

The sound that humans can bear can shatter their internal organs.

The confusion stopped.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, if it hadn't been for an accident ten years ago, he would be a lawless dude in Liangjing City, and he would not allow others to assassinate him.

Nanli wanted to kill him, and he knew it very well when he fled along the way, but he didn't expect that when he arrived in Liangjing, as soon as he knew he was back, Nanli's people were so rampant that they came to assassinate him immediately.

If you don't express your attitude, I'm afraid there will be a next time.

Simply let the carriage go south to leave the embassy.

Nan Yi said, "What if they refuse to admit it?"

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, that's right, he used bees to assassinate, but he didn't see a single person. Even he, the young master of Nanli, had never heard of the assassin named Fengchao, let alone the people in Beiliang.

After thinking about it, I asked someone to buy two wooden barrels, and then bought some sugar syrup.

Sugar syrup is also sugar, and sugar has long been recorded in "The Book of Songs · Daya", "Zhou Yuan's 膴膴, Jin Tu is like sugar".

Beiliang's sugar is made of corn, and the sweetness is a little weaker, but fortunately, the price is right, and even ordinary people can buy some as condiments.

Nan Yi scratched his head, "Young master, didn't we go to trouble them? Why does it feel like we're here to give gifts?"

Mo Shaoheng replied, "Not only did I want to make trouble for them, I even confiscated the tools they used to commit crimes."

When he came to the Nanli embassy, ​​Mo Shaoheng did not call the door, but went up to the building opposite the embassy.

Upstairs, open all windows.

Nan Wang looked very puzzled, what is the young master doing?

I saw that Mo Shaoheng spread all the sugar syrup on the two large wooden barrels he bought.

Then I glanced at the sunset in the sky, it was the time when all things returned to their nests.
