Muchuan spoke very domineeringly, giving off a domineering feeling.
Of course, just talking arrogantly cannot suppress the other party. For this reason, under Ouyang Bufan's instigation, the surrounding Tang palace guards all drew their long swords and raised their swords towards the sky with great momentum and majesty.
Mochizuki Dagong was not an idiot. He knew that the battle was not good for him as soon as he saw it. The fish and meat on the chopping board were at the mercy of others. Faced with so many Tang Dynasty guards, Mochizuki Dagong could only obey obediently.
After a stick of incense, all the servants from the Goguryeo Ambassador's Courtyard were called out, including maids, servants, soldiers, cooks, etc.
Ouyang Bufan took the portraits to compare them one by one and found that none of these people matched the ones in the portraits.
"Sir, it can't be done..." Ouyang Bufan said regretfully.
Muchuan had already expected this. After all, the portrait was so ugly, it was strange that it could be correct. For this reason, he had to call Xiaorou up for identification.
In fact, Muchuan was not willing to call Xiaorou out so quickly. Xiaorou was the only one who knew about the white-masked gangster. If her identity was exposed, she would definitely be harmed by the gangster.
But in this situation, it is indeed difficult to arrest someone based on the portrait, so she has to come forward to identify him.
After half a cup of tea, Xiaorou's identification was over. She was dejected. She stepped forward and said that the people in front of her were not white-masked men.
Mochizuki Dagong showed a sarcastic smile at this time: "How about it, Master Muchuan, now you have called out the servants as you wished, but you can't find them?
I don’t know how to settle this matter?”
It sounds like Wangyue Dagong is coming to settle the scores with the Queen of Autumn, so that he can make amends with Muchuan for his rude behavior today.
However, Muchuan didn't feel that he was rude. If he was rude, his next behavior would probably be even worse. With just a move of his hand, he forcibly ordered the soldiers to enter the house to search, and the ambassador had to be removed from the courtyard.
Searched everywhere!
"Mu Chuan, you are going too far! This ambassador has already called all the servants in the courtyard to ask you to find out. Now that you are planning to search the house after failing to find out, you are not looking down on our country of Goguryeo.
Got it!"
"oh?
I really don’t take your country of Goguryeo seriously.”
Muchuan said in a cold voice, then came to Wangyue Dagong, lowered his voice and added another sentence, "Even if you are the ambassador of Goguryeo, you will be a dead person from the moment you deal with me."
"Mu Chuan! I advise you to stop in the end. Shichu Wuming, your actions will inevitably lead to punishment from your emperor."
"Yeah?
I don’t think so.”
At this time, a group of guards had already entered the house to search at Muchuan's order. Their main goal was to find the big man in the white mask in the portrait.
As a result, at this moment, a group of soldiers wearing black military uniforms, a hundred people in total, poured in outside the ambassador's courtyard.
The man leading these black-clothed soldiers was none other than Lin Sanshan, Minister of the Ministry of War! In addition to Lin Sanshan, there was also Shangguan Jin, the Secretary of the Central Military Commission.
When Muchuan ordered the household guards to search the house, the soldiers in black came to stop them, obviously intending to hinder Muchuan.
Later, Shangguan Jin spoke and asked: "Lord Muchuan, I don't know what you are doing?"
The sudden scene naturally shocked Muchuan. What were the good Shangguan Jin and Lin Sanshan doing here?
But it was Ouyang Bufan who was standing next to him who reminded him: "Sir... these people are probably here to protect Wangyue Dagong."
Muchuan then remembered the news reported by Ouyang Bufan yesterday, saying that Shangguan Jin and Wangyue Dagong had a very secret personal relationship.
It seems that Wangyue Dagong saw Muchuan coming, so he secretly sent someone to pass on Shangguan Jin so that Shangguan Jin could come and stop him?
If that's the case, then Mochizuki Dagong is too insidious!
Muchuan flicked his sleeves and asked with a cold face: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhongshu Ling. I would like to ask what you are here for."
"I heard that someone was making trouble in the ambassador's palace, so I sent someone to check it out... I didn't expect that the person making the trouble turned out to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue!"
After Shangguan Jin finished speaking, Lin Sanshan on the side also joked: "Shang Shu, I heard that you originally proposed to build this ambassador's palace, saying that it was to create a friendly image of the Tang Dynasty court. Why have you ruined yours now?
There are rules."
Listening to the two of them singing and harmonizing was really annoying.
Muchuan did not hesitate to give up, and directly told the two people the reason, saying that Mochizuki Dagong, as the ambassador of Goguryeo, was suspected of murdering his own life, and for this reason he came to arrest them.
"Two adults, please don't come in the way, otherwise I will sue you for colluding with Goguryeo."
Hearing what Muchuan said, Shangguan Jin raised his voice and said in annoyance: "Shang Shu, you should be careful what you say. What does it mean to be in cahoots with Goguryeo? You are slandering! That's why we have to cite you in front of the emperor!"
"
Lin Sanshan: "That's right, Muchuan, don't think you can cover the sky with just one hand. It's not up to you to have the final say in the court."
It seems that the two of them are determined to stop Muchuan. Is it possible that these two people have been betrayed by Mochizuki Dagong?
Seeing this situation, it would be difficult for Muchuan to have a head-on conflict with the other party. In terms of positions, Shangguan Jin and Lin Sanshan are both at the same level as him, and the other party brought troops today. If a conflict really occurs, Muchuan would be justified.
I can't tell.
It seemed that this matter had to be reported to the emperor, so Muchuan flicked his sleeves and planned to enter the palace directly to find Li Shimin to explain the whole story and seek justice.
But when Muchuan waved his hand and led the people away, Xiaorou tugged at the corner of his clothes and said softly: "Sir... I found it! I found the man with the white mask!"
"found it?
Where?"
"over there!"
Xiaorou pointed her finger at a big man standing next to Shangguan Jin.
That big man has a tall build and a square face with thick eyebrows. Isn't this man the cavalry officer who protected Mochizuki Dagong in the past?
Muchuan once fought against him, his name was Gao Feng!
It turns out that Gao Feng is the big man with the white mask. If so, it can prove that the mastermind behind the scenes is indeed Mochizuki Dagong! After all, Gao Feng is Mochizuki Dagong's bodyguard!
"So it's your boy!"
Muchuan shouted in shock, and then glanced at Temujin vigorously.
Temujin was very smart and powerful. He rushed towards Gao Feng with a tiger lunge and grabbed Gao Feng with his big hand, intending to capture Gao Feng.
Seeing that something was wrong, Gao Feng immediately waved his fist and hit Temujin vigorously. However, Temujin reacted quickly and immediately turned his head to avoid, and used his front foot to challenge Gao Feng hard.
