At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 76 Extraordinary Missing Persons Case

Only then did they realize... that they were a little shameless.

Everyone put the dishes on the table, but they didn't even move their chopsticks.

Lu Chu, in particular, reacted immediately and apologized to Xu Mu: "Xian...brother...don't blame me, brother...for a...moment...to get up, forget...forget..."

It's just that when he got excited, he inevitably stuttered.

Xu Mu glared at him, and snorted coldly: "If you know you're wrong, eat as soon as you can, eat as much as you can."

Lu Chu quickly stopped those inmates who still wanted to make gifts, and said with a sullen face: "You don't know how to cherish the banquet at the master's house, and let down the table full of delicious food, why don't you quickly pick up the wine glass and toast the master's house? "

Those supervisors all blushed, lowered their heads, picked up their wine glasses, and toasted Xu Mu.

The one who took the lead was Song Guanlan, who was reciting "There is a guest looking for fragrance every day" in the morning. He blushed and said in shame: "Thank you for the host's banquet today, I was ignorant and rude, and I failed the host's good intentions. First, I will punish myself with a drink." .”

After drinking a glass, he filled up the wine again, and then said with a wry smile: "I never thought that the host's family has a poetic talent, persuading wine to become a poem, this action is not blind, not drunk, I am afraid that it will follow our name." Poetic history."

The poem that Xu Mu copied was one of the more famous poems that Bai Juyi gave Yuan Zhen to persuade him to drink.

Originally, Xu Mu didn't want to copy poems at all, but he wanted to wake up this group of supervisors who recite poems and compose Fu. Only when they recited a poem, they would feel remorse.

The main reason is that the last two sentences of this poem are very suitable for the occasion.

Afterwards, the group of supervisors punished themselves with two cups each, and then they started to pick up their chopsticks and eat to their heart's content.

Seeing that they finally started eating, Xu Mu's calm face eased.

Otherwise, wouldn't his 180 catties of Mongolian sweat medicine be wasted?
Wang Tong, who was silently gnawing on the leg of lamb, looked at Xu Mu suspiciously. He found that his little friend... was really warm-hearted.

The supervisors were obsessed with making gifts and didn't want to eat, but he was so concerned about them.

Wang Tong looked at Xu Mu, and said with deep emotion: "Little friend, you really care about the world. The supervisors are so angry because they don't eat or drink. What's more, people in the world?"

Xu Mu: "..."

Xu Mu felt a little embarrassed when he was suddenly given a hat with a heart for the world.

Speaking of it, he persuaded the supervisors to eat out of bad intentions.

But after fooling so many people, Xu Mu's face has already been practiced, and he picked up a lot of food for Wang Tong without red face: "Come on, Lao Wang, eat more, just like at home. you're welcome."

Wang Tong opened his mouth, touched his slightly distended belly, and gave a wry smile.

I had to keep eating.

Originally, he planned to put his chopsticks away. After all, when the group of supervisors were making their gifts, he was the only one who ate for a long time.

But the host's kindness is hard to turn down, if he refuses, it seems too ignorant.

In this way, Xu Mu kept feeding Wang Tong and Lu Chu during the meeting, while also paying attention to the developments of more than 400 supervisors.

Get up multiple times and give them a toast.

It's just that they are afraid that the dose of Mongolian perspiration medicine they are taking is not enough.

In the end, half an hour later, in the entire banquet, except for Xu Mu, no one was able to stand up.

All lay down on the table.

At the same time, Wang Zhao led a hundred guards of the Iron Buddha and walked over. Seeing... such a spectacular scene, the corners of his mouth twitched.

I have to say, the lord is the lord, it was a success.

This is... Guozijian, a group of the best scholars in the whole world.

Not a single one was leaked, even the sacrificial wine was poured...

"My lord, two boats have been vacated. Do you want the folks to come and carry them?" Walking up to Xu Mu, Wang Zhao cupped his hands and asked for instructions.

Xu Mu nodded and said, "Let them come over, be quiet."

In fact, under the dose of 180 catties, this group of people had already slept like dead pigs.

Unless they are cut with a knife, they will basically not wake up.

And when...Wang Zhao called the hired peasants over, the eyes of those peasants changed.

Everyone was shocked, with fear in their expressions.

More than 400 people, all lying in the dining room, this scene is really spectacular.

Especially when someone recognizes that these are all the students of the Imperial College...

"This... this... I quit this job, I want to go back..."

Many civilian husbands made trembling requests, but Xu Mu ruthlessly rejected them.

They participated in the matter of transporting grain from the Luokou warehouse, so they were destined not to be free.

Otherwise, there will always be smart people in the world who will think that He Ruozhuang's continuous supply of food comes from the Luokou warehouse.

Intimidated by the [-] Iron Buddha soldiers led by Wang Zhao, this group of unarmed civilians finally resigned to their fate.

They can only honestly act as accomplices of traffickers.

Start moving the supervisors.

Until the evening, more than [-] people, including Lu Chu, Wang Tong, and Mrs. Lu Chu who was kidnapped by Tiefutu, were all loaded onto the boat.

After nightfall, it will be transported to Yangcheng along the waterway.

At the same time, Xu Mu took out a prepared letter, handed it to Wang Zhao, and said: "This transportation will be escorted by you personally. This is the foundation of our Wanmin City's future, and it must not be left behind." Mistake! Give this letter to Lao Zhang, he will naturally know what to do next."

"promise!"

Wang Zhao's expression was solemn, and he accepted the order in a deep voice.

After nightfall, [-] ships sailed down the river, and more than [-] people, accompanied by food, pretended to be the fleet of Wanmin Commercial Company, and went down the river mightily.

At the He Ruozhuang Ferry, Xu Mu looked at the boats disappearing into the night before looking away.

Turn around and look at Fan Zhu beside you.

"The unfinished meals, the sweat medicine, and the tunnels have all been cleaned up?"

Fan Zhu took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "The food has been poured into the river, the medicine for sweating has been used up, and the entrance of the tunnel has been filled and sealed with soil for the time being."

These were all explained by Xu Mu.

After all, the huge missing persons case in Luoyang City will attract great attention, and King Yue will be furious.

He frowned and said worriedly: "My lord, Luoyang will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly next time. Everyone knows about the Lichun Poetry Association. I'm afraid..."

The Lichun Poetry Club cannot be concealed, so it will be a matter of time before He Ruozhuang is found out.

And once He Ruozhuang is found, Xianweiju will probably be exposed too.

At that time, all the foundation they worked so hard to create in Luoyang City will be in vain.

The corners of Xu Mu's mouth curled up, not panicking at all.

In fact, he had already thought about the consequences of kidnapping people.

"You go to report to Yang Yan right now, and say...Lu Chu brought the students from the Imperial College to my He Ruozhuang for a spring outing and a poetry meeting, but in the afternoon, all the students disappeared suddenly, and I searched all over the village. , have not been found, so we can only report it." Xu Mu said lightly.

Fan Zhu opened his mouth wide, startled by Xu Mu's words, and froze on the spot.

This... so overbearing?
Kidnapped someone without giving an explanation?

Still calling for a thief?
Xu Mu seemed to see through his thoughts, and the corners of his mouth turned up: "Why do you need to explain? People disappeared in He Ruozhuang for no reason, you must focus on crying about this point, and then... Yang Tong will definitely send Dali Temple to investigate thoroughly the case."

"As for why people disappeared, it depends on whether Dali Temple can give me an explanation."

After hearing this, Fan Zhu jumped up and down, and asked cautiously: "So, the king of Yue Yang Yu really...won't send troops to encircle and suppress?"

Xu Mu was extremely confident about this, shaking his head and said, "Do they have any evidence? If there is no evidence, we will be sieged without a name. Now that Li Mi is besieging Luokou Cang, Yang Tong definitely doesn't want more trouble."

Xu Mu has a very thorough understanding of Yang Tong. This person is weak and different from Lao Yang.

After all, he is a disciple taught by the honest man Lu Chu, so it is absolutely impossible to be so unreasonable!
So in the absence of evidence, he was not worried that Yang Tong would be furious and send people to encircle and suppress him.

Furthermore... Now He Ruozhuang has been set up by him as an inner village and an outer village. The outer village raises pigs, and the inner village defends them.

Even if they couldn't defend, they could evacuate safely with the Shonai Tunnel.

This is why he dared to kidnap people directly.

In fact...he could have made up an excuse, saying that he encountered Li Mi's troops, but obviously, Luoyang would never believe this excuse.

He simply stopped making excuses.

Anyway, people disappeared here, if you don't believe it, find evidence.

Proof that I tied it.

……

Yangcheng.

When the sky was slightly bright, Wang Zhao passed the moat dug outside Yangcheng with the boat and entered Yangcheng.

Immediately afterwards, a large group of peasants from the city stepped forward, entered the various cabins, and began to carry food.

They were extremely proficient and skillful, and it took them two hours to move all the grain down and put it in the granary in Yangcheng.

And Wang Zhao, also holding Xu Mu's handwritten letter, met Zhang Xutuo.

"General Zhang, this is the Lord's handwriting."

After reading Xu Mu's letter, Zhang Xutuo's eyes lit up, and he hurried to an inn in Yangcheng.

After the fall of Yangcheng, the owner of the inn disappeared, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

It was temporarily arranged to accommodate these scholars.

Zhang Xutuo saw more than 400 unconscious scholars and fell into silence.

"My lord... My lord really did it."

After a while, Zhang Xutuo let out a sighing voice: "If Director Fang sees this group of scholars, I'm afraid he will wake up laughing from his dream."

In the letter, Xu Mu specifically explained to him, telling him to hurry up and take advantage of this group of people unconscious to send them to the deep mountains and old forests... the Wanmin City inside.

Prevent accidents from happening.

And let Fang Xuanling persuade them all, as for how to use them, Fang Xuanling has the final say.

After handing in the letter, Wang Zhao prepared to return to He Ruozhuang with the boat to return to his command.

"Wait, it just so happens that this general also has a military report to report to the lord."

Zhang Xutuo entered the study and explained the specific situation of Li Mi's battle with Wang Shichong in recent days.

……

Luoyang, Yue Wangfu.

Fan Zhu knelt in front of Yang Tong, weeping bitterly, while Yue Wang Yang Tong... froze on the spot, pale and motionless.

"Master Lu... lonely Master Lu..."

His eyes were glazed, his eyes were loose, and he remembered Lu Chu's voice and smile. Gradually, he woke up from his grief and stared at Fan Zhu.

"Where is Dali Temple?! Summon Huangfu Wuyi to come, and rush to He Ruozhuang at dawn to thoroughly investigate the case!"

Beads of sweat appeared on Fan Zhu's forehead, and he was relieved after hearing Yang Tong's words.

Sure enough, as the lord expected, Yang Tong...

There was no violent siege.
