The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 160 Huo Qubing was arrested

When Huo Qubing arrived at the Huainan Palace, he began to carefully observe every move in the palace.

The specifications of the soldiers in the palace were in line with the military arrangements of the princes and kings, but the morale exuded by these soldiers made Huo Qubing secretly frightened.

Elite soldiers!

The quality of this group of soldiers will definitely not be any worse than that of the Chang'an Forbidden Army.

Huainan King Liu An brought his daughter Liu Ling and son Liu Qian to meet Huo Qubing.

Huo Qubing was ordered to reward Liu An for his efforts in guarding the Huainan Kingdom over the years.

With this kind of excuse, the scheming Liu An just pretended that he didn't know anything.

Then Huo Qubing said that he had been ordered to inspect the military camp in the Huainan King's fiefdom.

In the middle hall of the palace, the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Huo Qubing keenly felt that something was wrong, but he remained calm. He had seen this kind of scene too many times, and it was not worth being nervous.

Liu Qian and Liu Ling winked at King Huainan several times, but King Huainan Liu An just smiled slightly, waved and said: "Liu Qian, take the champion to the military camp."

"Master Huo, our soldiers in Shouchun are not as good as those in Chang'an. Don't make fun of us."

Huo Qubing also smiled back and said, "Your Majesty, you are humble."

Liu Qian brought Huo Qubing to the Shouchun barracks, and the soldiers were practicing with loud killing sounds.

Huo Qubing saw all this scene and marveled at the power of King Huainan's troops.

Even if he has no intention of rebellion, this kind of tiger and wolf army still needs to be reduced. If it grows for a few more years, it will pose a serious threat to His Majesty and the court.

Huo Qubing walked north towards the military camp with his hands behind his back.

There is a door here, but it is not clear what is going on outside.

Liu Qian stopped Huo Qubing and said with a smile: "Master Huo, there are only some baggage inside, there is nothing interesting to see."

Huo Qubing said calmly: "Can't I go take a look at the luggage?"

Liu Qian said: "I need to ask my father for instructions. Why don't we go ask him for instructions now?"

Huo Qubing said: "What if I want to see it now?"

Liu Qian said calmly: "Then you can't get in!"

Huo Qubing frowned and stared at Liu Qian coldly. No one in Chang'an dared to talk to him like this. How dare a son of a prince to be so arrogant!

However, Huo Qubing suppressed his anger.

Before coming here, his uncle told him not to be impulsive in everything, and Huo Qubing took Emperor Wu of Han's words to heart.

"That's it."

Huo Qubing pretended to be bored and left the military camp with his hands behind his back, "By the way, King Huainan won't mind if I stay in Shouchun for two days, right?"

Liu Qian was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Of course I won't mind, we will definitely entertain Mr. Huo well."

"Ah."

The King of Huainan arranged a residence for Huo Qubing.

In the afternoon, the second batch of envoys sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty rewarded King Huainan again, and then the envoy team of Councilor Lang Wang Sui arrived at the residence where Huo Qubing stayed.

"Master Huo, Your Majesty asked me to give you a message to keep a low profile here."

Wang Sui was sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to remind Huo Qubing, but Wang Sui did not know the specific tasks Huo Qubing performed here.

Late at night.

Huo Qubing put on his night clothes and left Dishe Hotel quietly.

Wang Sui stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, silently watching Huo Qubing's leaving figure.

He was indeed investigating the Huainan King's rebellion. The Marquis was right.

A contemptuous smile appeared on Wang Sui's face, and then he walked out with his hands behind his back, straight to the Huainan Palace.

In the middle hall, the lights flickered on and off due to the wind.

The King of Huainan looked solemn, stared at Wang Sui, pondered for a moment, and then said: "You said Huo Qubing went out? Where?"

Wang Sui said calmly: "Then I don't know."

"There's only so much I can remind you."

King Huainan said indifferently: "Why do you want to inform me about this?"

As he spoke, he said to Liu Qian: "Go to the military camp! Catch him!"

"Remember, catch them alive!" "Here!"

Liu An slowly sat down, took a sip of water from the tea cup, put it down, and sighed: "Your Majesty has indeed begun to doubt me, and you are indeed here to check me out."

"What should I do?"

"I know that he has always been wary of the power of the princes and kings. Among the many forces, I am the biggest. I am afraid that he wants to destroy my soldiers and horses, not just overnight, right?"

"What will happen if a tiger has no teeth?"

"Animals are so cruel to each other, and even more so to humans. He is trying to force me to rebel!"

Liu An stopped pretending at this time. He stared at Wang Sui and said, "What about you? Why did you betray Huo Qubing? Who ordered you?"

Wang Sui smiled and said: "You don't need to know. I came here today just to hope that the king will release me from the city."

Liu An sneered and said, "Why don't I let you go?"

Wang Sui laughed and said: "I'm not that yellow-haired boy like Huo Qubing, I don't have any scheming at all!"

"When I arrived, we had already secured people outside the city."

"I'm not going out tonight. My people will rush to Bozhou to mobilize troops as soon as possible."

"If I go out, I will rush back to Chang'an to resume my life at night. This will give you more time to prepare."

"My lord, you will rebel sooner or later. I think it would be better if you give yourself more time to prepare. What do you think?"

Liu An looked up to the sky and laughed: "Okay! You are a character! No matter who you are, I admire your courage."

"Let him out of the city!"

Wang Sui cupped his fists and said, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

……

Inside the Shouchun military camp.

When the small door to the north of Huo Qubing's general camp was opened and the fire folds were lit, what came into view was shocking armor, swords and spears!
Huo Qubing was shocked!
The King of Huainan really has the intention of treason!
While he was stunned, flames shot into the sky from behind.

"Arrest people, arrest them alive!"

Liu Qian spoke.

Huo Qubing looked at the surrounding army, drew out the knife from his waist, and charged fiercely towards the crowd-like army!

Even if he hits an egg against a stone, he will never look back!
Puff puff!
After losing his war horse and facing a steady stream of troops, no matter how brave Huo Qubing was, he could not stop the opponent's offensive.

There was blood everywhere on his body, his strength was exhausted, and he finally collapsed.

……

Huainan Palace.

"Dad, Huo Qubing was caught."

Liu Qian came back to resume his duties and sneered: "Wang Sui is really a rip-off!"

"Dad, why did he betray Huo Qubing?"

why?
Huainan King Liu An didn't know either. There might be power disputes among the upper echelons of Chang'an. He didn't want to know about these nonsense.

Now the arrow is on the string and must be fired!
"I'm sending you a message! It's against my will!"

Liu Qian cupped his fists and said, "Okay!"

……

Chang'an, Weiyang Palace!

Swish!
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suddenly woke up from his bed, with sweat dripping from his forehead and his heartbeat racing.

Wei Zifu was also awakened by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He stood up and softly comforted Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, saying: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty waved his hand, got up and drank a few sips of water: "I dreamed that Huo Qubing was covered in blood."

Huo Qubing was raised by him personally, and he had a very deep feeling for Huo Qubing.

Wei Zifu comforted him: "Your Majesty, it's just a dream."

"No!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "It's too real. This is not a dream."

"You go to bed first, I'll go for a walk."
