Chapter 114 A Puppet

When Prince Ye came out of Baihualou, he not only failed to solve the problem he wanted to solve, but also solved Ye Hao's problem!

If he didn't tell Ye Hao the news about Wei Shao, then Ye Hao might have to do far more than that.So he stomped his feet angrily and helplessly, and then went back!

Seeing Prince Ye leave, Yu Wen asked Ye Hao, "Master, do you want to send someone to find His Royal Highness?"

Ye Hao shook his head and said, "Not for now. But you can send someone to watch secretly. As long as Prince Ye doesn't make any big moves, he shouldn't have any problems."

"Yes." Hearing what the master said, Yu Wen withdrew.

Ye Hao was sitting at the table right now, feeling a little annoyed.What bothered him was not only Wei Shao, but the matter of Prince Ye.I had already made an agreement with Prince Ye in private, but Wei Shao asked him to cooperate with Prince Ye again.In the end, I am afraid that I have done a very strenuous and thankless thing!

However, now that things have come to this point, Ye Hao can only move forward step by step.Immediately, the people sent by Xiyue Imperial City will arrive in Shicheng, and even Prince Ye may not be able to stop the development of the situation by then.

In the evening, when Wei Shao was strolling in the yard, the old man suddenly sent someone to ask him to go to the front hall, Wei Shao couldn't help being taken aback by the anxious situation.

When Wei Shao arrived at the front hall, he found the old man walking back and forth there, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "His Royal Highness, good news!"

Upon hearing the good news, Wei Shao's face couldn't help but brighten up, and he couldn't help asking: "Really? What good news?"

"I have already contacted the hidden guards in Shicheng," the old man said to Wei Shao, "They have sent a letter saying that they are at the home of a merchant in Shicheng, asking me to bring the Crown Prince there early tomorrow morning."

"Really?" Wei Shao also said happily: "Great! But," Wei Shao said a little puzzled, "Why should it be arranged in the morning instead of in the evening?"

"Well," the old man thought for a while, "Maybe they think it will be safer early in the morning. Your Royal Highness, the most important thing is that we can contact them now. And it is said that it is the main contact point for the secret guards of Shicheng... "

Seeing the excited look of the old man, Wei Shao felt a little worried, but he didn't let himself show it, but said to the old man: "Well, everything is arranged by you."

"Well, okay." The old man nodded quickly and said, "I'll make arrangements now!" After speaking, he left.

Wei Shao stood there in a daze, feeling as if he had lost some kind of control, and a sense of sadness suddenly rose in his heart.It turns out that the eagle without wings can't rely on itself after all!

The night was spent in Wei Shao's capricious self-doubt.At dawn, Wei Shao got up and followed the old man out of the yard.

The carriage moved forward gently in the stillness of the morning, and then stopped at the end of an alley.The old man asked Wei Shao to get out of the car, saying that the merchant lived in a small alley.

Wei Shao followed the old man into the alley, and then they stopped in front of a small courtyard.

The old man stepped forward and knocked lightly a few times with a rhythmic sound, and after a while, someone opened the door.The man was stunned when he saw the old man, and then asked them to come in respectfully.

Although it was early in the morning, as if they had agreed, the hall was already full of people.Wei Shao walked in and was startled to see so many people there.Could it be that his father had arranged so many hidden guards in Shicheng?

The old man stood at the front and introduced to those people: "This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Wei Shao stood there looking at those people, and those people also looked at Wei Shao curiously.Because these people were not sent by Wei Shao, they were all sent by his father, and they had been in Shicheng for a long time, so they hardly met each other.

After the old man's voice fell, the hall was silent.I don't know if people are suspicious of His Highness the Crown Prince in front of them, or because they haven't fully realized that His Highness the Crown Prince will really stand in front of them.

After a while, a person stood up and asked with a frown: "Who can prove that he is His Royal Highness? What if you want to lie to us?"

"Heh," the old man couldn't help laughing: "Since you have such an idea, why do you still come? Didn't you come to die?"

"You..." The man didn't expect the old man to be so difficult to speak, that he couldn't even listen to the questioning voice. He was about to say something, but was stopped by a person beside him.

Seeing that the people present were not completely convinced, the old man couldn't help but glanced at them and said: "If you don't even know whether the Crown Prince in front of you is real or not, I will instead wonder if you are the real Northern Guard's dark guard, or You are spies sent by some hostile forces!"

After speaking, the old man's eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he wanted to see through everyone present.At this time, those people were a little nervous and cautious, and the voice of opposition disappeared.

The old man looked at Wei Shao and said, "His Royal Highness, would you like to say something to them?"

Looking at these people standing in front of him, although Wei Shao didn't know whether it was true or not, but the matter had reached this point, he had no choice but to move forward.He stood in front of these people, looked at them and said, "It doesn't matter whether you think I'm real or not, but you must always insist on one thing, that is, no matter what you are asked to do, it is for Beiwei! If you are asked to What you are doing has nothing to do with restoring the country to Beiwei, you can completely refuse, or even suspect that you are being used, and you don't have to think about whether the Crown Prince in front of you is real or not!"

Wei Shao's words completely stunned the people present.They thought His Royal Highness would tell them to do things, but they didn't expect that he would make them stand firm. If they feel something is wrong, they can give up completely!This is something the previous master has never done!

Apparently the old man also felt that this was a little inappropriate, so he hurriedly whispered in Wei Shao's ear: "His Royal Highness, this is a special period, and sometimes special circumstances need to be considered..."

"No matter what the situation is," Wei Shao said loudly, "You do everything for the sake of Beiwei, not for a certain person. Without Beiwei, what do you want His Royal Highness to do?"

The old man's face was obviously displeased, and he was about to persuade Wei Shao again, but suddenly he heard the voices of those people in the hall raising their arms and cheering, this voice startled him, and made it too late for him to say what he was going to say !

Those people listened to Wei Shao's words, not only did not have any dissatisfaction, but they were happy and proud that they had such a prince!They shouted "Long live" and vowed to follow His Royal Highness...

Such a scene made the old man feel pleasantly surprised.Originally, he was worried that these people would not be able to reunite, but what Wei Shao said just now made him even more worried, but he didn't expect that Wei Shao's words not only did not make these people uncomfortable, but instead inspired them to fight. Stronger cohesion!

Wei Shao saw the passionate look of the dark guards, and he also had infinite fighting spirit in his heart!If he hadn't followed Ye Hao to Shicheng, he wouldn't have thought of using these hidden guards.Seeing them, he suddenly felt in his heart that he had a bargaining chip with Prince Ye.If we can cooperate with Prince Ye at this time and use Ye Hao again, there may be more hope for the restoration of the country.

The old man finally calmed everyone down. "Since everyone is of the same mind, let us follow His Royal Highness's arrangement and start preparing for the restoration of the country!"

"Rejuvenation? Now? Really?" These people were a little stunned.

The old man said to them: "The reason why we called everyone together is because His Royal Highness came to Shicheng, and of course it is for the great cause of restoring the country!"

"Prince Wei is in Shicheng now," the old man looked at these people and said, "Everyone knows the humiliation our Crown Prince has suffered, and now we will get it back for His Royal Highness!"

"Take it back!" Those people said in unison.

The old man looked at them and nodded, "Therefore, the first thing we do now is to capture Ye Hao alive in Shicheng and avenge His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Revenge!" Those people were filled with righteous indignation!It is unbearable for any man to think of what happened to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!Only by giving Ye Hao a severe blow can he appease the hurt of His Highness the Crown Prince!

At this time, a person stood up and said: "Since it is to avenge His Royal Highness, why not kill Ye Hao directly? It is so troublesome to capture him alive? Ye Hao is not so easy to catch."

Hearing what this person said, everyone around him fell silent. After all, what he said was the truth!

The old man looked at them and said: "To be honest, I want to kill Ye Hao more than anyone else in my heart! But everyone, don't forget that Ye Hao is still the Prince Wei of Nanye. We don't just want to restore the country in Shicheng. We need to fight against Nanye, and if we hold Ye Hao in our hands, we will have a bargaining chip with Nanye!"

"But Emperor Nanye doesn't like Ye Hao at all," the man continued: "The emperor of Nanye hopes that something will happen to Ye Hao in his heart! If Nanye doesn't have Ye Hao, wouldn't it be more beneficial for us to restore the country? "

But the old man shook his head and said: "You are wrong! We are not using Ye Hao to threaten Nanye's emperor, but Ye Hao's army! Everyone knows that Ye Hao's army is the most powerful among several countries , They don’t necessarily listen to the emperor of Nanye, but they will definitely listen to Ye Hao! If Ye Hao is in our hands and we ask Ye Hao to do something, wouldn’t those troops be able to do it for us? We’re still afraid Is there no hope of restoring the country?"

The old man's words made those people ponder. It is indeed a very good idea to say this.

"But," the man thought for a while and said again: "Even if we really capture Ye Hao alive, who can guarantee that he will really be obedient?"

Leaving aside the big problem of catching Ye Hao alive, isn't it a bit whimsical to want Ye Hao to restore the country for them?

Wei Shao has been standing beside the old man.It was also the first time he had heard the old man say these words. The old man had never discussed it with him before, as if he was by his side, he could already dominate and direct everything for him, and there was no need to go through him or go through He agrees!

As for the bold idea of ​​the old man, Wei Shao was skeptical.If he hadn't been with Ye Hao for a period of time, he would have felt that this matter was feasible.But everything is really not as simple as imagined, just like Ye Hao is still safely staying in the Baihua Building in Shicheng, Prince Ye knows all this, why he didn't do anything?Is there any conspiracy in the middle, or is he still deceived by Ye Hao?

"You don't have to worry about this," the old man comforted them, "As long as Ye Hao falls into our hands, are you afraid that he will be disobedient? We have many means waiting to serve him!"

Speaking of this, a treacherous smile appeared on the old man's face, which made those present feel terrified when they saw it!

"His Royal Highness," at this time, the old man looked at Wei Shao and said, "Actually, we have already found out that Ye Hao is staying in Baihualou. We want to take advantage of the celebration in Baihualou in two days' time!"

"Celebration?" Wei Shao couldn't figure out what day it was, after all, he didn't know Shicheng very well.

At this time, the old man actually called a person beside him to come over, and said: "His Royal Highness is tired, take His Royal Highness to the backyard to rest for a while!"

After finishing the order, he said to Wei Shao: "Your Highness the Crown Prince can leave this matter to the old man to arrange. Because it is a big move in Shicheng, so that if Prince Ye pursues it, His Highness the Crown Prince can shirk his ignorance, so that he can talk to Prince Ye later. When we cooperate, we will not be troubled.”

Wei Shao looked at the old man, of course he was very dissatisfied with him sending him away at this time.The old man obviously didn't want him to participate in the action arrangement, what was going on in the middle and what was the purpose was beyond Wei Shao's control.But he has no reason to stay here now, because the reason given by the old man seems quite reasonable.But after thinking about it, this old man was targeting Ye Hao specifically, and based on what he knew about Ye Hao, he wasn't worried about Ye Hao at all.Even if this old man is really capable, what's wrong with making Ye Hao suffer?The old man didn't say he must let Ye Hao die!

Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "Okay." Then he followed the attendant to the backyard.

The stone table in the backyard has already set up food and wine, it seems that everything is under the arrangement of the old man!There were also two coquettish girls sitting beside the stone table.Although Wei Shao didn't like it very much, he didn't say anything after all, and just sat there.Since the old man wanted him to be a puppet, then he should show it to him!He also wanted to know what kind of tricks this old man would play, and what kind of benefits he would get in the end!

It's just that before Wei Shao had had a few glasses of wine, a person came over from the front hall.

Originally, the guard arranged by the old man beside Wei Shao did not let that person approach, but Wei Shao could see that the man was the one who questioned the old man in the front hall just now, so he asked the guard to retreat and let that person come to him side.

"His Royal Highness." The man didn't salute Wei Shao, but just looked at him and said, "Don't you go to the front hall to hear how the old man arranged it?"

Wei Shao replied to him while drinking, "I've already left this matter to him, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

"His Royal Highness has been with Prince Wei for a while," the man stared at Wei Shao and said, "Shouldn't he know better than the old man how to deal with Ye Hao?"

Hearing that person's words, Wei Shao raised his head and said, "Do you think his arrangement is inappropriate?"

The man looked at Wei Shao, frowned and said, "His Royal Highness doesn't seem to be very interested in this matter? Or is it that His Royal Highness is not particularly interested in the restoration of the country?"

"What do you mean by that?" Wei Shao was obviously irritated by his attitude, and the expression on his face became ugly, "If you want to teach me, then I advise you to save your energy. If you don't If you are willing to do this, I will not force you. If you don’t want to talk to the old man, I will go and talk to the old man.”

"Your Highness the Crown Prince," the person said with a heavier tone: "If your Highness the Crown Prince wants to restore the country with this attitude, I think it would be better for His Highness the Crown Prince to stay honestly by Prince Wei Ye Hao's side, lest..."

Before the man finished speaking, Wei Shao stood up angrily, pointed at the man and said, "Get lost!" Seeing Wei Shao's words, the two guards hurriedly drove the man out!

When that person finally left, he said a few ugly words, but Wei Shao couldn't hear them anymore.

Wei Shao sat down at the table very angrily, and said to the beautiful woman beside him: "Pour wine for my highness, if my highness is not drunk today, I will not return!"

Sure enough, Wei Shao drank until dark before being carried back in a daze by the old man's orders.And during this day, he didn't know anything about what the old man did and what he confessed to those people!

Back at the old man's house, Wei Shao buried his head on the bed and fell asleep. When he woke up the next day, it was already daylight.He felt like he couldn't remember what he did yesterday.

There is indeed a celebration in Baihualou.An annual celebration that is neither specially arranged nor unique to this year.It is a warm-up for the coming New Year.However, this celebration was very lively, almost all famous people in Shicheng were invited, and of course Prince Ye was invited!

Ye Hao sat in the house, listening to the noise outside, imagining everything he might discover tonight.Now Baihualou is still in the preparation stage, and it is not dark yet, but it is already several times more lively than usual.

At this time, Yu Wen knocked on the door and came in, and said to Ye Hao: "Master, His Royal Highness does not seem to be coming tonight."

"Not coming?" Ye Hao didn't expect this.If Wei Shao didn't come, would they still come here to deal with him?Besides, Prince Ye is also here. Although he cannot sit at the same table with Prince Ye, or appear directly in front of many people, it seems unwise to attack him in such a crowded place.

However, maybe they took advantage of the crowd.

"Where is Wei Shao?" Ye Hao couldn't help asking Yu Wendao.

Yu Wen hurriedly replied: "Still in the old place."

"Oh." Hearing this, Ye Hao stood up and said, "Find a guard to pretend to be me, and I'll go out for a while."

"Where are you going, master?" Yu Wen was taken aback by Ye Hao's order, besides, the master didn't ask anyone to follow him out, so does the master want to go out alone?

Ye Hao looked at Yu Wen and said, "You only need to be in charge of this place, and leave the rest alone. I will take care of myself."

Hearing what the master said, Yu Wen had no choice but to obey.

After a while, Yu Wen called several guards, divided into two groups, one group stood outside the door, and the other group entered the house.After a period of time, let those in the house stand outside the door, and those who stand outside the door go into the house.

While walking back and forth like this, Ye Hao had already left Baihualou.Of course he was dressed as a bodyguard.It's better for him to be more careful when he goes out alone.

The wind is a bit cold at night.Ye Hao left Baihualou, turned into a remote corner, changed into ordinary people's clothes, and then walked towards the old man's house.

Yes, he was going to find Ye Hao.He hadn't seen him for a few days and wondered how he was doing.And Wei Shao didn't show up in Baihualou today, he was a little worried and didn't understand what happened.Of course, it was reasonable for Wei Shao not to show up, but he just wanted to see him!

It is not difficult to climb in from the old man's courtyard wall, considering Ye Hao's martial arts.It is not difficult to avoid those patrolling guards, but the yard is too big, although Yu Wen told him the approximate location, but it is still a bit difficult for him to find it.

Besides, if Wei Shao had rested and turned off the lights at this time, it would be even more difficult for him to find him.

Fortunately, I heard from the passing maids that the two princes were accompanying His Royal Highness in the backyard today, so Ye Hao followed the maids to the backyard.

Sure enough, it was the time when the wine was strong in the pavilion in the backyard, and the two young men were drinking there with Wei Shao.Wei Shao looked very excited, his face was already a little red from drinking, but he didn't intend to stop at all.

Ye Hao hid among the flowers at the side and looked at them, and found that the two young masters were not in the same mind, while Wei Shao deliberately wanted them to make him drink, anyway, he would not refuse anyone who came.

It seems that the old man was afraid that something might happen tonight, so although he couldn't stay at the house, he still asked his two sons to accompany Wei Shao.

Finally, Wei Shao couldn't drink anymore, so he lay down on the table.

The two young men quarreled over who would send Wei Shao back to the room.Ye Hao waited a little bored for their quarrel to end.Ye Hao was a little dizzy that this kind of father's preference for his son caused another son's dissatisfaction.If no family is at peace, what good development can there be? Dispersion is only a matter of time.And this is still a good result, if the other one has evil intentions, it may not only be as simple as dispersing, but also cause trouble to the point of ruining the family!

Because the two young men were both drinking, they were arguing and almost got into a fight!However, they probably thought that Wei Shao was still here, so they helped Wei Shao to the room together.

Ye Hao followed quietly, and after they left, sneaked into Wei Shao's room again.
