Chapter 412 The end of the first round
In the past few days, Jingzhao Mansion has been investigating Sui Yi's whereabouts, but there is still no news. The members of the Sui family are also inquiring through relationships, trying to contact the bandits around Chang'an City and some gangs from the world, but they have found nothing.
If it were ordinary kidnapping, the kidnappers should have asked for ransom for a long time, but after a few days, the kidnappers still didn't make any movement.
Liu Yu could feel more and more that Sui Yi was secretly detained like Xu Rong at the time. He even speculated whether Sui Yi was also suffering from torture. The person who kidnapped Sui Yi was probably trying to get evidence of his Liu Yu or Hua Ji'an's rebellion from Sui Yi. Once Sui Yi could not withstand the torture, his situation would be very dangerous.
On the fifteenth day of the winter moon, the snow in Chang'an City was still intermittent. An expedited document came from Tongguan that day, saying that Huo Bing led his army through Tongguan and returned to Guanzhong. The court was immediately busy and in chaos.
No one expected that Huo Bing would suddenly bring his troops back at this time. The previous imperial edict ordered Hua Ji'an, Huo Bing and others to transfer the army back to the barracks, but Hua Ji'an did not make any movement. He just "ordered" the "puppet commander" Liu Wenyan to return to Chang'an City. Hua Ji'an's disrespect for the emperor's order has become the most troublesome thing for the court today. At this time, Huo Bing returned to the court. The first is that Huo Bing had a special purpose for returning to Chang'an City under Hua Ji'an's order. The second is that Huo Bing had a conflict with Hua Ji'an. Huo Bing was determined to face the vanguard general Liu Wenyan and came back to surrender to Liu Wenyan.
No matter what the situation is, Huo Bing is a sword hanging over the head of the court. It is well known that Huo Bing likes to play tricks. If he makes him mess up, he might turn the Chang'an City upside down. Huo Bing is not many people, but everyone knows that Huo Bing never needs too many people to achieve success.
On the fifteenth day of the winter moon, Xu Xuanzhu completed the inspection of the female army camp and returned to Chang'an City. He went in a hurry, but he was very calm. After reporting to the Ministry of War, she returned home, as if nothing had happened.
On these days, Liu Yu still asked his spies to inquire about the situation around Chang'an City as usual. But now Liu Yu no longer believes in these subordinates who were originally loyal to his orders. Liu Yu had secretly asked Qi Fang and Zhang Wuzhu to prepare a new spy team, which would sneak into Chang'an City one after another in the next few days to help Liu Yu find out the news. Now Liu Yu is eager to know Sui Yi's whereabouts, and he can't watch the people around him suffer because of him.
But this matter was obviously Liu Yu's "heartless".
On the night when Xu Xuanzhu returned home, Huo Bing's troops were stationed less than 100 miles away from Chang'an City. According to the rules, Huo Bing had to ask the court to stop him by the court, and the Ministry of War asked the emperor to ask the emperor to decide the garrison of the troops. However, this time Huo Bing suddenly returned to Guanzhong and did not say hello to the court in advance, so the court could not understand Huo Bing's intention for the time being. The matter of asking for a station was temporarily put on hold. It was equivalent to letting Huo Bingai stay wherever he was stationed.
Huo Bing was not polite, and was stationed directly within 100 miles of Chang'an City. With the speed of Huo Bing's troops marching, he could lead troops to Chang'an City in more than an hour, which was equivalent to the safety of Chang'an City being threatened. On that day, the Ministry of War asked the emperor to report to the emperor overnight to control Huo Bing's troops, which was patrolling the eastern defense of Chang'an City. He said that he was resigning, but as long as they could keep an eye on it, it was rare. Everyone knows how powerful Huo Bing's combat power was. For the Chang'an City Guards equipped with old weapons, it was not enough to give Huo Bing's troops a gap between their teeth.
But who knows that this is not a situation set by Liu Liniang?
After all, Liu Liniang is interested in the remnants of King Huai, and now there are several forces in the court, as well as the orthodox emperor, Su Zhe, who has not appeared in the face.
