When Wei Ba returned to the corridor, his legs were still a little numb, but after contacting Zhao Su, he finally felt relieved and felt very relaxed. At this moment, he saw a group of knights filing in from the city gate.
When he entered, it was Xiahou Mao who signaled, and he immediately became vigilant.
Xiahou Mao's people are in Yiwu, and the only people who can come under his banner are from Chang'an. Could it be that my father has left Ziwu Valley and Chang'an got the news?
It's enough for two knights to deliver the message. There is no need for so many people to come all at once. So he attacked Chang'an? This is even more unreliable. Although the only defense capabilities in Chang'an City are Weiyang Palace and Jianzhang Palace, but with the old
It is still unrealistic for more than 10,000 people to attack Chang'an. According to the plan, he should seize Tongguan now.
Could it be that... it's nothing, the Prime Minister sent another Guo Mo specifically to harm me? As soon as this idea came up, Wei Ba's heart "thumped", but he immediately stopped. I'm not Meng
Da, Zhuge Liang just wants to get rid of my father and son. Before that, they also need us to defend Tongguan and buy time for him to attack the city. It is impossible to destroy me now.
During the time when Xia Houhui walked from the gate of the outer city to the gate of the inner city, climbed the steps, and stood in front of Wei Ba, Wei Ba's mind was like a galactic computer running at full speed, analyzing countless possibilities in an instant. It's a pity that he
All his calculations failed, and it wasn't until he found that the beardless young general standing in front of him looked familiar that he realized what might have gone wrong.
"Xiahou... Miss?" Wei Ba greeted her politely and bowed respectfully: "Are you here to see the general?"
Xia Houhui had a cold face and did not answer Wei Ba. Instead, she waved her hand first. The twenty knights who came with her immediately rushed up, surrounding Wei Ba and the inseparable Dunwu behind him. Dunwu God was in the middle.
As soon as the color tightened, his hand immediately pressed on the handle of the knife at his waist. Those of them who were scouts might encounter each other at any time, so they were very vigilant and even a little nervous.
Wei Ba calmly waved his hand, signaling Dun Wu not to be nervous. He smiled calmly. "It seems that Miss Xiahou is not here to see the general, but to see me."
"You guessed it right, then guess again why I came all the way to see you?" Xia Houhui was five steps away from Wei Ba, accompanied by two knights who looked like they were facing a formidable enemy.
She is very familiar with Wei Ba's attacking habits and has taken adequate precautions.
Wei Ba shook his head. "I really can't guess what the girl is thinking."
Xia Houhui sneered and said: "Wei Ba, don't think that what you do is perfect. If you don't want others to know about it, you can't do it unless you don't do it. It's definitely not a good thing for you to come here."
"I know this. Miss Xiahou has never had any good intentions towards me." Wei Ba nodded calmly, stretched out his arms, and made a restrained gesture: "I don't know if the girl is going to cut me into pieces right now.
Or should I go to the general and explain it clearly, and then let me die?"
Xia Houhui was stunned and asked involuntarily: "What do you mean?"
Wei Ba sighed: "It seems that the girl doesn't want to give someone a hand. In that case, let's go see the general." After saying that, he raised his legs and walked up to the hall. When the knights asked Xia Houhui for instructions, Wei Ba had already
Pushing them away, he walked out of the encirclement. The knights were a little nervous and looked at Xia Houhui one after another. Xia Houhui was slightly annoyed, but not in a hurry. He motioned to several knights to rush over, but he stopped and looked at Xu Ran who was following him.
After waving his hand, he called him in front of him and gave some instructions. Xu Ran bowed to accept the order and went down to prepare. Xia Houhui then walked up to the hall.
In the hall, Xia Houmao was a little embarrassed. He was holding a little beauty in his arms and making frivolous gestures. Suddenly he saw the knight next to the princess coming into the hall. He thought it was the princess in person and was so scared that he rolled over and crawled. The charming little beauty in his arms was also touched. He pushed it aside smoothly and became a gourd on the ground. His smooth and white forehead hit the corner of the desk, and blood suddenly flowed out. It looked really scary.
Xia Houmao didn't care to look at the little beauty. While tying his clothes, he asked nervously: "Where is the princess?"
"Uncle, the princess and Chang'an, it's me." Xia Houhui went to the hall, saw Xia Houmao's disheveled appearance, and saw the little beauty with blood on his face beside him, he understood immediately, and couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed. She was born in Coming from a wealthy family, her father Xia Houshang was a bohemian, and these things were not uncommon. But after all, she was still a girl who had not yet left the court. She was still a little unable to accept the sudden sight of Xia Houmao professing her sex in the daytime. She was even more disappointed. However, on the occasion of this war, Xiahou Mao could not go out of the city to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, but he did such a dissolute thing here, which is really not what a general should do.
For a moment, she wondered if she was stupid. Is it wise to place the hopes of the Xiahou family on such a person?
When Xia Houmao heard that the princess didn't come, he immediately calmed down a lot. He saw the disappointment in Xia Houhui's eyes at a glance, and he was a little happy and a little angry. In any case, Xia Houhui was his junior, and now he not only broke through him He also expressed contempt for him, which was difficult for him to accept.
Xia Houmao lowered his face and asked unhappily: "Yuanrong, if you are not accompanying the princess in Chang'an, what are you doing here?"
Xia Houhui noticed his gaffe, quickly calmed down, bowed and said: "Uncle, I came here to report an important matter to my uncle. Wei Ba did not sincerely surrender to the Wei Dynasty, but pretended to surrender. He I want to be close to my uncle wholeheartedly because I want to do harm to my uncle and to Guanzhong."
Wei Ba was nervous in his heart, but he didn't take it seriously on his face. He just looked at the ground in front of him blankly, with a touch of disappointment, and turned a blind eye to the knights who were eyeing him eagerly.
Xiahou Mao was taken aback. He didn't care about Xiahou Hui's impoliteness and asked hurriedly: "Where do you start talking about this?"
Xia Houhui glanced at Wei Ba coldly: "Wei Ba, at this time, do you still want to fight stubbornly? If you don't recruit us quickly, you may be able to spare your life."
Xiahou Mao also shouted sharply: "Wei Ba, tell me quickly, what is going on?"
Wei Ba raised his head, looked at Xiahou Mao, who was dripping with cold sweat, and then at Xiahou Hui, who had a frosty face, and suddenly laughed: "What a weird thing, girl, you came all the way to Xiwu just to listen to my confession. ?Girl, if you have evidence, just tell it directly. Why go around in circles and play this trick of luring the snake out of its hole?"
"You also know that you are an insidious snake?"
"Whether I am a venomous snake or not is not important. The key is that in the girl's heart, I am afraid that I am already a venomous snake."
Xia Houhui sneered and was about to refute when Xia Houmao interrupted her impatiently: "Yuanrong, what evidence do you have? Just tell me."
Xia Houhui was speechless. Of course, it was better to force Wei Ba to confess this kind of thing. The evidence was in his hands, so that Wei Ba could not figure out where he had exposed his flaws, so that he could be forced to reveal more flaws. Himself First of all, wouldn't all the initiative be lost? She winked at Xiahou Mao. Unfortunately, Xiahou Mao had just been frightened, and now his heart was pounding. He didn't understand what she meant at all, but urged her to speak quickly.
Xia Houhui had no choice but to go to Wei Ba's house to inquire about the news. He found out the flaws from Peng Xiaoyu and knew that Wei Ba wanted to use Peng Xiaoyu as a cover and purchased a large amount of household items to cover up his true intentions of escaping at any time, etc.
Judging from the phenomenon, it was found that Wei Ba might have faked his surrender. After interrogating Peng Xiaoyu and others, it was determined that Wei Ba had faked his surrender. Only then did he explain the story of his arrest.
Xia Houmao was startled again. He glared at Wei Ba and took two steps back: "Wei Ba, you are so bold!" He waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Come on, take down Wei Ba!"
Several soldiers rushed forward and held Wei Ba down, while others in the hall also subdued Dun Wu.
After listening to Xia Houhui's narration, Wei Ba felt relaxed. Even when he was restrained, he did not panic at all. Xia Houhui's words seemed to have solid evidence and irrefutable evidence, but he knew clearly whether it was a fake surrender or not.
Peng Xiaoyu and the others had no idea, and no real evidence could be obtained from their mouths. In other words, Xia Houhui might have smelled something, but she had no definite evidence at all. She came here just to be on guard.
Prevent the problem before it happens, and then hope to open a gap from him to get more evidence and make final confirmation.
What he was most worried about was that Zhuge Liang would deal with him like he dealt with Meng Da, and then send another Guo Mo to Chang'an to fake surrender. Although he logically analyzed that Zhuge Liang would not do this, but Zhuge Liang had already tricked him, and who knew whether he would do it all in one go?
, eradicate the root? Now Xiahou Hui has not mentioned this matter, which shows that Zhuge Liang is not impatient enough to lose his mind, and what he is most worried about has not happened yet.
In this case, what does he have to worry about? Xia Houhui is smart, but she is not that smart yet. You must know that the person who formulated this plan is the equally smart Zhuge Liang, and the person who implements this plan is also a man of two generations. Every day
I would spend another two hours at night thinking over this plan, reflecting on my every word and deed, making sure there were no mistakes, and I couldn't be more careful.
The reason why he is so confident now is largely due to the Zishi meditation. The Zishi meditation was a pain for him at first, but after he got used to it, it became a good experience. In the quiet of the night, he could reflect on himself.
For him, who has been insisting on reflecting on his previous life since his rebirth, this undoubtedly turned a compulsory activity into a habit, a habit of constant mind cultivation.
People who can persist in exercising every day have a strong body, and people who can persist in introspection every day have a strong heart.
Wei Ba, who has a strong heart, has no fear even when facing a talented girl like Xia Houhui. As for Xiahou Mao, he is not a threat to him, but a useful tool.
"Miss Xiahou, your trick of destroying Guo in a false way is really good."
