Chapter 71 Xiaobao's Opportunity

Wei Xiaobao chuckled: "This is easy. I brought a lot of old turtle's medicine. If we mix them together, are we afraid that he won't die?"

Xin Han nodded and ordered his left and right: "You go out first. Eunuch Gui and I have something to say to Aobai."

After everyone went out, Wei Xiaobao came to the big pot, took out the medicine powder and poured it into the pot, stirring it a few times with a spoon.

Then he whispered to Xin Han in a triumphant tone: "After eating this bowl of pork and cabbage with added ingredients, this guy Aobai will bleed from all seven orifices, or... he will bleed from all eight orifices to death."

Xin Han looked at Aobai from a distance, and when he heard Aobai's constant scolding, he frowned and handed the black iron dagger that could cut iron like mud to Wei Xiaobao: "I don't want to see him. I'm going to drink with Prince Kang first. You can handle it yourself. Be careful."

After that, regardless of Wei Xiaobao's stunned expression, he pushed the door and walked out, and ordered the old servant who was cooking: "You cook well. Go and serve Aobai a bowl first. After he finishes eating, Eunuch Gui can talk to him."

Although the old servant didn't understand why he had to finish eating before talking, he didn't dare to ask, and hurriedly did as the adult ordered.

After Xin Han finished speaking, he walked towards the front hall. He knew that the people from the Tiandihui would arrive soon, and he didn't want to ruin Wei Xiaobao's opportunity, nor did he want to get involved.

Prince Kang was a little confused when he saw Xin Han coming back alone. Xin Han explained that the emperor had told Wei Xiaobao to talk to Oboi alone and he would deal with it.

After inviting Xin Han to the table, Prince Kang personally poured wine for Xin Han. Xin Han said he dared not to, and he should toast the prince himself.

Prince Kang laughed and said, "Hasn't it been settled? We will be brothers in the future. Why are you so distant, brother Xin? I will still count on you in front of the emperor in the future."

Xin Han said, "What are you talking about, my lord? I am just the head of the guards. Can I help the prince? I am counting on the prince to promote me."

Prince Kang said seriously, "Brother, I am not joking. You are a favorite of the emperor. If there is any disturbance in the future, you must inform me in advance."

The two were chatting enthusiastically, when suddenly the sound of gongs and weapons colliding came from outside, as if someone was shouting that someone was attacking the palace.

Prince Kang was stunned. Attacking the palace? This is a joke! Now it is the Qing Dynasty, how dare someone attack the palace in broad daylight in the capital? He couldn't believe it.

Xin Han knew clearly that it must be the group of people from the Tiandihui, and it was also the opportunity for Wei Xiaobao to enter the Qingmu Hall.

"Brother, wait a little, I'll be back soon." Prince Kang said and was about to go out.

At this time, someone came to report that someone attacked the prison where Oboi was.

Prince Kang was shocked: "Is it the remnant of Oboi? No, brother Xin, Eunuch Gui is still in there."

Xin Han pretended to be anxious and stood up quickly: "We must ensure the safety of Eunuch Gui."

Prince Kang said repeatedly: "That's right, that's right." Then he shouted at his men: "Go and save people quickly."

When Prince Kang and Xin Han came to the outside of the prison, the archers of the palace had already surrounded the place and were constantly shooting arrows inside. Through the gate, Xin Han saw a lot of corpses lying on the ground. Except for the bodies of the soldiers, the rest were wearing green clothes. They must be people from the Tiandihui.

Prince Kang and Xin Han supervised the battle in person under the protection of the guards. The blue-clothed men were blocked by arrows and could not rush out. The Taoist holding Oboi's body shouted, "Follow me!" He raised the body to block in front of him.

Finally, Wei Xiaobao was also held hostage by these people with his mouth covered.

Prince Kang hurriedly said, "Stop shooting arrows, don't hurt Eunuch Gui."

Wei Xiaobao thought to himself, "Prince Kang has a conscience, I will remember you!"

Seeing Xin Han suddenly winking at him, he suddenly let go of his worries and became relaxed. He knew that his master would not ignore him. With his master around, everything would be fine.

He quickly stabbed Xin Han in the eyes twice.

Almost made Xin Han laugh. This was not a secret signal, so what could he say back.

The archers in the palace stopped shooting arrows immediately after receiving the order.

Those blue-clothed men shouted loudly and rushed out of the stone house.

There was a man with a long beard, who waved his hand, and four men rushed towards Prince Kang.

The guards were shocked and didn't care about chasing the enemy. They all came to protect the prince. However, Xin Han had already blocked Prince Kang with a knife in his hand, which made Prince Kang feel very grateful. Look how kind this brother Xin is.

Who knew that this was a trick of the long-bearded man to attack from the east and west. The others took the opportunity to jump over the wall and escape from the palace.

The four men who attacked Prince Kang were very good at light work. They did not fight with the guards. They jumped east and west, as if they were waiting for an opportunity to take Prince Kang's life. When all their companions left the palace, the four men whistled a few times, jumped over the wall, waved their hands repeatedly, and more than ten hidden weapons were shot at Prince Kang. The guards exclaimed again and waved their weapons to hit the hidden weapons.

But there was still a steel dart that went straight to Prince Kang's left arm, but was knocked away by Xin Han's knife. In such a chaos, the four men in blue clothes all left the palace again.

When Prince Kang saw that the thief had run away and had not returned, he felt that he had lost face in front of Xin Han. The most important thing was how to explain to the emperor that Eunuch Gui was abducted.

He cursed: "Useless things, why don't you chase them? If you can't rescue Eunuch Gui, you will all be beheaded."

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves on the street was like thunder, and someone shouted: "There is an assassin in Prince Kang's mansion!" It was a large group of government troops coming to reinforce.

Prince Kang shouted: "Tell them to rescue Eunuch Gui."

Turning around with a bitter face, he said to Xin Han: "Brother Xin, what do you think we should do? Oboi has been rescued, and Brother Gui has been abducted. How can we report to the emperor?"

Xin Han said: "I saw that Oboi had a vital wound on his back and should be dead. Even if he is not dead, he cannot be saved. It doesn't matter. The only way now is to rescue Eunuch Gui first. I will go to rescue him now. Your Majesty, just report to the emperor."

Prince Kang sighed and bowed, "This time it all depends on you, brother."

Xin Han left Prince Kang's mansion, turned the corner, and went directly into a restaurant.

At this time, the restaurant had been booked by someone. There were more than a dozen men in plain clothes standing in the restaurant. When they saw Xin Han, they immediately stood up and saluted: "Sir!"

A man brought Xin Han a set of ordinary coarse cloth clothes.

Xin Han changed out of his official uniform, put on his cloth clothes, and asked, "How is it, have you finished it?"

A man came forward and said with a smile, "My Lord, you are very smart. Lao Niu and his brothers have already caught up. We have our secret agents in these streets. Don't worry, they can't get away."

The speaker was Zhang Gengnian.

Xin Han nodded: "Tell the brothers not to alert the enemy. Remember their appearance and draw their shadows. Brothers, each of them should have a copy to find out their identities in the capital. I want them to know clearly what they eat in the morning and where they spend the night."

"Yes!" These people are the guards under Xin Han.

Xin Han knew that the Tiandihui would definitely come today, so he asked the guards to disguise themselves and ambush around Prince Kang's mansion. They didn't care about any actions of the Tiandihui and only played the role of tracking and monitoring.

He didn't want to do anything to the Tiandihui, but he had to control what such a force did in the capital, otherwise one day they would deal with him and he didn't know it, wouldn't he be a fool.

After Xin Han changed his clothes, he said, "Brother Zhang, take me to see where they stayed."

Zhang Gengnian immediately walked in front to lead the way. The two pretended to be passers-by and walked slowly. The other dozen guards dispersed and hid in the crowd passing by to protect Xin Han.

Zhang Gengnian led the way and asked with some doubts: "Brother Xin, are those thieves the remnants of Oboi? Why don't we take them down in one fell swoop?"

Xin Han shook his head: "It's hard to say yet. Let's observe first. If it's the remnants of Oboi, it won't be too late to take action. If it's other forces, we can just monitor them secretly."

Every time the two of them reached an intersection, someone secretly gestured to point out the direction, and after a while, another gesture came.

Zhang Gengnian whispered in Xin Han's ear: "The thieves are cautious. They are currently wandering around the city and have not reached their destination yet."

Xin Han nodded: "Don't worry, let them follow carefully, let's walk around here first."

Zhang Gengnian nodded, secretly made a gesture to continue, carefully, and informed the brothers around him.

The two of them were strolling on the street. After a while, Zhang Gengnian received a message and reported in a low voice: "Sir, those thieves have left the city. What should we do?"

Xin Han didn't remember where Wei Xiaobao was taken in the original novel. Now that the Tiandihui had caused such a big incident in Prince Kang's mansion, it was unlikely that he would stay in the city.

"Tell the brothers to reduce the number of people by half and follow them from a distance. Be sure to remind them that it is better to lose them than to let the other party find out that Brother Gui is still in their hands." Xin Han thought for a while and ordered.

Let's lose them. Anyway, the faces of those who broke into the mansion just now have been secretly recorded. They must be the people of the Qingmu Hall of the Tiandihui. After drawing the shadows and figures, send people to investigate secretly. As long as they are in the capital, they will not be afraid of them running away.

But if those people are alarmed and they find that they have been followed, Wei Xiaobao's safety cannot be guaranteed.

So Xin Han gave the order immediately, it is better to lose them than to alert the enemy.

Xin Han simply went back to the restaurant with Zhang Gengnian to listen.

It took a full hour before the news came that the thief was suspected to have entered a manor five miles outside the city.

The reason why it was called suspected was that the secret sentry did not dare to follow too closely. After the target disappeared, several secret agents who seemed to be keeping watch outside a manor were found, and they all looked like they were kung fu masters.

Xin Han received the news and immediately set off with his men, galloping out of the capital and heading straight for the destination.

When there were still two miles to the target, Xin Han dismounted and walked instead, and asked the guards to disperse and wait on the spot. He only took Zhang Gengnian and Niu Yonglu with him, and walked towards the destination without weapons.

When they arrived at the head of a village and walked into a forest, two people immediately stood out from behind the tree and greeted him: "Sir, the thief should be in that manor."

Xin Han looked over and saw that the guard was pointing to the largest manor in the village. At this moment, the double doors were closed, and two men dressed in farmers' clothes leaned against the door and seemed to be chatting, but Xin Han knew that they were the secret agents of the Tiandihui.

The guard said again: "There are also their people at the village head. We can't get any closer, otherwise we will be exposed if they see us as unfamiliar."

Just then, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and more than a dozen horses were galloping from a distance. Xin Han couldn't help but lock his eyes on the leader.
