"Things in the southeast?" Mo Han repeated these four words before he suddenly came to his senses. Now that Fang Zilan is the Duke of Yue Kingdom in Beijing and is not on the board of directors in Beijing, but he came to Mushan Pass incognito, he must have important matters.
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't ask anything after hesitation.
"Mo Han, I won't hide it from you." Fang Zilan looked calm and said openly: "What's more, General Mo Bin is your father. I also want to know your opinion on this matter."
Mo Han's throat tightened, thinking that what she wanted to do must be related to the Mo family. So he took a deep breath and said, "Sister Lan, it doesn't matter."
"I received a report in the capital that Mo Bin, the guard at Mushan Pass, was rebelling. Do you know about this?" Fang Zilan asked bluntly, while Mo Han was dumbfounded, "What...rebellion?"
Seeing this, Fang Zilan frowned. Judging from Mo Han's reaction, Mo Bin probably had no intention of rebellion at all. After all, if Mo Bin really wanted to rebel, his son would never be able to hide it.
She asked tentatively: "If there was no rebellion, why should Mushan Pass be blocked and strictly controlled in and out?"
"This..." Mo Han hesitated, Fang Zilan waved her hand and said: "If you have something to hide, I will investigate it myself. No matter what the final result is, I will not make it difficult for you."
"Sister Lan, the Mo family is not trying to rebel." Mo Han sighed, "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you. Mushan Pass is the fiefdom of King Rong'an. King Rong'an always wanted to They tried every possible means to make things difficult for our Mo family. A while ago, there were a lot of agents in Mushan Pass, as well as people from the Southeast Camp. My father suspected that they were sent by King Rongan. But their purpose was unknown, and my father did not dare to act rashly. He just sent people They were all imprisoned and the passers-by were strictly interrogated to prevent anyone from doing harm to Mushan Pass."
"Since we don't know the purpose, why are we imprisoned without interrogation? What's the point?" There was obvious doubt on Fang Zilan's face, "What's more, the people in the southeast camp are not at the mercy of King Rongan. This kind of excuse , it’s too clumsy.”
Mo Han's heart tightened and she couldn't help but ask: "Sister Lan doubts my father?"
"I believe the Mo family will not rebel, but your father obviously has something to hide." Fang Zilan's expression became more solemn, "Mo Han, if I don't know the truth, I can't help the Mo family."
Mo Han looked hesitant, but he heard her sigh, "Your Majesty has decreed that the Mo family in Mushan Pass will rebel and cannot be kept."
This sentence was like a thunder in the ground, making Mo Han unable to react for a long time. After a while, he murmured: "Sister Lan, you..."
Fang Zilan interrupted him and promised: "Don't worry, I will keep you safe even if I risk my life."
"The rest of the Mo family..." Mo Han looked complicated and did not continue. Fang Zilan added: "Whether the Mo family can be saved depends on the truth. If the Mo family really did something..."
"No." Mo Han interrupted her abruptly, "Although I have been here not long ago, I also know what kind of people the Mo family is like. Sister Lan, if you want to know anything, just tell me. As long as I know , I must know everything and tell you everything. If I don’t know something, I will help you find out it, no matter how difficult it is."
Fang Zilan looked grim, "Mo Han, do you really believe in the Mo family?"
Mo Han nodded firmly, "Yes, I believe it. Not just my parents, I believe everyone in the Mo family."
"Okay." Fang Zilan nodded slightly, "In that case, let me ask you, do you know if there are any pirates infiltrating Mushan Pass?"
"Hai pirates?" Mo Han repeated the word, carefully recalling what he had seen recently, seeming to remember something, and nodded: "About two months ago, several pirates sneaked into Mushan Pass, and my father found out We sent people to arrest them later, and they should still be in jail now."
"Two months ago?" Fang Zilan looked a little more serious, "It was earlier than General Xiahou found out."
"General Xiahou?" Mo Han asked in shock: "Sister Lan is talking about General Xiahou Yunzhao?"
After seeing her nod, Mo Han became more and more uneasy. This time, even the Xiahou family guarding the Baiyue Land was alarmed. It's no wonder that His Majesty sent her here in person. At this point, with her temperament, she will definitely get to the bottom of it, and the Mo family will probably find it difficult to just deal with it.
"Mo Han?" Fang Zilan saw that he looked uneasy, so she stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. Only then did he come back to his senses and said, "What are your orders, Sister Lan?"
Fang Zilan looked solemn and said: "Can you let me secretly meet those imprisoned pirates without your father's knowledge?"
Mo Han thought for a moment, and finally nodded: "Yes, but you have to wait for two days. After all, Sister Lan, you just arrived today, if..."
He stopped mid-sentence, but Fang Zilan already understood what he meant and hurriedly said: "No rush, I just want to walk around the city in the past two days to see what's going on."
"Okay, then I'll accompany you." Mo Han offered to go with him. Fang Zilan couldn't refuse, so she nodded and said, "That's fine."
Seeing her promise, Mo Han said no more and immediately left.
As soon as Mo Han walked out of the room, A Wan walked in quickly and asked eagerly: "How is it? What did your cousin say?"
"It's more or less what I guessed." Fang Zilan briefly explained, "The Mo family did not rebel, but pirates did sneak into Mushan Pass, but it was two months ago. And those few who sneaked into Mushan Pass The Shanguan pirates have been captured and have been kept in prison."
"Then this is strange." Awan looked confused, "The Mo family did not rebel, nor were pirates making trouble, so why did His Majesty ask you to come to the southeast to handle this matter?"
"The pirates are indeed real, which shows that the news about General Xiahou is not just a baseless rumor." Fang Zilan raised her hand and frowned, analyzing: "But the Mo family did not rebel, which shows that the other half of General Xiahou's news is not credible. "
Awan asked subconsciously, "You mean, General Xiahou sent false news to the capital?"
"Two possibilities." Fang Zilan lowered her voice deliberately. Awan leaned closer to her and heard her say: "Either General Xiahou was deceived and mistakenly thought that the Mo family was rebelling. Or General Xiahou had some quarrel with the Mo family. The one who dealt with it deliberately sent false news to the capital, intending to use His Majesty's hand to eradicate the Mo family."
"I don't think so." Awan shook his head in denial without hesitation, "With the status of the Xiahou family and General Xiahou's ability, if you really want to eradicate the Mo family, it will be as easy as squeezing an ant to death. Why bother? To wait until today, you still want to make such twists and turns to fake news? What’s more, this kind of despicable method is really not like General Xiahou’s style.”
