It was early August when Zhu Gaoxu finally arrived in Yunnan Prefecture City.

The journey was very difficult, and the worn and smooth stones on the five-foot road impressed him deeply. The group of people's shoes were several pairs of broken shoes, so they had to wrap cloth around the soles of the shoes soles to protect the soles of their feet from being injured.

Zhu Gaoxu remembers the situation in Dousha Pass.

In the place where the "Shimen Pass" was engraved on the door, the guard inspected their way. The way was not fake, it was indeed a thing issued by the Yunnan government. Zhu Gaoxu and others also purchased a lot of Shu brocade in Luzhou, the governor of Sichuan, which looked more like a business gang. But the guard generals somehow smelled something strange, acted very suspicious, and asked a lot of questions. Finally, they finally let it go, but Zhu Gaoxu was secretly sweating.

If the unknown guard of Guancheng refused to let go, Zhu Gaoxu and others would have to go back to Yunnan, and they would have to make some trouble.

In this world, only inanimate machines can operate accurately. Anything that someone gets involved is full of various turbulent causes. Perhaps people are not accurate in themselves, and various emotions, such as anger, fear, and impulse, often completely subvert the decision at a certain moment.

So Zhu Gaoxu felt more and more that it would be futile to completely control everything.

Fortunately, personal emotions cannot affect everything, and most of the time, people's minds still have traces to follow. However, it is indeed a bit difficult to understand those subtle things.

Zhu Gaoxu and others did not go to the Han Palace for the time being. They quietly went to an empty restaurant. When he returned to Yunnan, he decided not to disturb Mu Sheng for now, so that he could have more room for detour.

The crowd entered the city and walked to the south gate because there was a stronghold of the "Digong Mansion Defence Station". The stronghold was still the place left when the assassin was investigated. Later, because it was close to the city gate, it was very convenient to control the movements in the city, so it was not cut off.

Zhu Gaoxu confirmed that the soldiers at the Nancheng stronghold discovered him and left the city gate. In this way, Wang Bin and the generals in the defence station would soon know that he had returned to Yunnan.

... Zhu Gaoxu bought this restaurant that had been vacant for a long time a few years ago. At that time, the place where he and Yao Ji and his family of three met were here.

The location of the restaurant is not very good, there are not many people passing by outside, and there are mostly houses around it. This is probably why the shopkeepers sold the restaurant? Zhu Gaoxu didn't choose much at the beginning, but he happened to find that there was a place to be dialed here, so he paid for it.

Everyone was exhausted. After eating some dry food and drinking some water, they had found the house and lie down and sleep.

Zhu Gaoxu was also exhausted and immediately lay down in a wing room in the outer courtyard, but after tossing and turning, he couldn't sleep!

As soon as he returned to Yunnan, he felt a lot of trouble, and for a moment he didn't know where to start.

After a while, a "tuk-tuk-tuk" knock suddenly sounded at the door. Zhu Gaoxu quickly thought: Maybe Wang Bin and others learned the news and sent someone over.

He turned over and walked out of the door of the room. At this time, the door rang twice again.

In addition, the yard was very quiet. The few people who accompanied him back to Yunnan had already slept to death, and no one noticed the knock on the door at all. Zhu Gaoxu did not blame them. He was indeed squeezing everyone's physical strength throughout the way, especially the female eunuchs and the literati Qi Tai, the most unbearable.

Zhu Gaoxu walked behind the door and used to looking at the crack of the door alertly. He immediately found something strange because he saw through the crack of the door that there was no one outside!

He was stunned for a moment, his tired and chaotic mind gave him the illusion that he had just been auditory hallucination.

Zhu Gaoxu calmed down, gently pulled the door bolt, and opened one of the doors. He poked his head out and took a look, but saw nothing, then quickly looked at the other side, but still didn't see anyone!

Just then, a voice said, "Prince, is it convenient for me to come in?"

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he remembered that the voice was very familiar, as if it was Yao Fang's voice! Zhu Gaoxu immediately said: "It's okay, come in."

Sure enough, Yao Fang flashed in, and Zhu Gaoxu immediately closed the door.

Yao Fang clasped her fists and said, "I just saw the King of Han and eight others entering this place, but most of them didn't know each other, so I didn't rush to come over."

Zhu Gaoxu didn't notice where Yao Fang was just now. He might be too tired and didn't have so much energy to pay attention to the surrounding scenery. Zhu Gaoxu was very surprised when he saw Yao Fang, but he still calmed down and said, "Say in the room."

The two of them entered the wing where Zhu Gaoxu had just slept, and the tables, chairs and houses inside were covered with dust. However, Zhu Gaoxu was also dusty and dirty, so he didn't care.

"Why are you in Yunnan?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

Yao Fang said: "The last general came to the city yesterday. He came here first and saw that no one had come in, so he stayed here for a night."

After Zhu Gaoxu came in, he also didn't pay attention to the traces of someone who came last night.

Yao Fang continued: "Hu Guang, a bachelor of Hanlin Academy and chief assistant of the cabinet, came to Yunnan from Guizhou and was ordered to win over the Hou Musheng of Xiping. At that time, the Jinyiwei also wanted to send someone to follow him. It happened that he had been to Yunnan in the future. He was asked to be experienced and familiar with the place, so he was selected."

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he couldn't help but laughed shortly, as he seemed to be laughing at the cleverness of encounters in the world.

"Have Hu Guang gone to the Xiping Marquis Mansion?" Zhu Gaoxu's smile disappeared for a moment, and he asked with a frown.

Yao Fang shook his head and said, "I guess he will be able to arrive in Kunming at least three days. I took the excuse to come to Yunnan Prefecture City to investigate the situation. In fact, I wanted to tell the King of Han in advance." He paused for a moment and said, "I thought, it's been more than a month since you left the capital. It's time to arrive in Yunnan. Why did the prince come to Yunnan Prefecture City now?"

Zhu Gaoxu said: "In order to avoid Dangyu from the Eastern Palace as much as possible, we walked the five-foot road. That road was difficult to walk, and it was impossible to ride a horse for several sections of roads, so we could only trek on foot. We gritted our teeth and rushed to the road with all our might before we could reach Kunming City today."

"So that's the case, I understand." Yao Fang said, "I ask the King of Han to tell you how to deal with Hu Guang?"

Zhu Gaoxu thought for a while and asked, "How many people are there around him?"

Yao Fang said: "Yunnan is the territory of the King of Han. Hu Guang came to disguise himself on this trip. There were only three people in his group. There was also a groom. The official road they walked on."

Zhu Gaoxu looked thoughtful. After a long time, he raised his hand and said, "Don't you meet Hu Guang for now, and I'll talk about it when I send someone to catch him."

Yao Fang clasped her fists and said, "I will obey the order."

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Brother Yao has made great contributions. If I succeed in the future, I will not treat you unfairly!"

Yao Fang said: "The whole family of three is willing to help the prince!"

He said this and immediately said, "The fewer people know about this identity, the better. I will not meet the prince and his subordinates, and say goodbye."

Zhu Gaoxu nodded, got up and sent Yao Fang out, so as to bolt the door again.

Before noon, Wang Bin and Zhao Ping came to the restaurant. Zhu Gaoxu told them a while and told each other about what had happened. Then Zhu Gaoxu ordered Wang Bin and Zhao Ping to immediately follow the official road to Guizhou to find Hu Guang and quietly catch him back here.

Hu Guang was a civil servant with a groom; Wang Bin and other two military generals who had fought war were enough to deal with them. Moreover, Hu Guang had been to Yunnan and entered the Han Palace, and general Wang Bin had seen him.

Zhu Gaoxu said at this time: "There is a groom beside Hu Guang, who will be killed on the spot, but the body must be hidden. This time it is critical, so you must pay attention to your work!"

Wang Bin said: "Don't worry, Prince, we have worked in Jiangxi, and the pawnshop is also very clean!"

Zhu Gaoxu saw the two of them away, paced in the wing room, but still had no sleepiness.

When everyone was still in Taoyuan, Wushan, Zhu Gaoxu agreed with what Qi Tai said. Now the court needs time, and Zhu Gaoxu also needs time... He, Zhu Gaoxu, must deal with the matter of the Mu Mansion first, otherwise there will be no way to openly raise an army!

If you can win over your own troops, that is the best result, otherwise you have to find another way. In short, you will definitely not be able to avoid the Mu Mansion before the rebellion.

I couldn't sleep on both sides, so Zhu Gaoxu went to the kitchen to boil water and take a shower. There was no one living in this place for a long time, but there was a well in the backyard and a lot of firewood left.

After taking a shower, Zhu Gaoxu went to call Veda again and asked him to wash the stench on his body.

The two of them searched around the house in the backyard and finally found two old clothes to put on. They couldn't find the underwear, and they didn't wear anything inside. Fortunately, it was not cold in early August in Yunnan, and it wouldn't be cold to wear a single clothes in the afternoon.

Zhu Gaoxu was working with Veda again, and took dry food to cook a pot of hot porridge.

Zhu Gaoxu added firewood while speaking: "Li Mo, the chief of the Han Palace, seems to have an old relationship with Commander Wei?"

Veda looked unspeakable and said, "We had a relationship many years ago."

Zhu Gaoxu knew what their relationship was. In the past, Veda's daughter and Li Mo had a marriage contract. Later, Zhu Gaoxu's mother fell in love with Veda's daughter, and the marriage contract was immediately torn by Veda... It was just that the world was a mess, but in the end, Zhu Gaoxu married the granddaughter of the Guo family of Wuding Hou.

Zhu Gaoxu said again: "I heard that his father was a hundred households. He failed the exam in martial arts and failed and failed the hereditary households. Later, he didn't know what path he had taken and actually went to the Han Palace to become a civil servant."

Veda said, "The love that will be sought for him will make the prince embarrassed."

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and said, "This matter doesn't matter, but the other thing cannot be done lightly. He is a spy from the East Palace."

"Ah?" Veda's face froze.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "I haven't figured out yet how he was bought or caught, what handle he wanted to be bullied? But there are people there, and Li Mo is a spy who can't make a mistake."

Veda said angrily: "Prince, let General Mu kill him with his own hands!"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "The time is up, I will tell Commander Wei."

Veda hurriedly said, "Although the general of the Mo has an old age with Li Mo, he is definitely not a traitor!"

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him, "Of course, Commander Wei is not. You are the commander of the Han Prince's Mansion. You have been with me for so many years. If I get unlucky one day, you will definitely be among the people who have been counted on it."
