Chapter 373 Closed Doors

Qin Xiao smiled at everyone, but the guard had a cold face and asked: "Which yamen are you from?"

"I am Han Duwei's subordinate." Qin Xiao said: "Han Duwei came to the Ministry of War to report, but he never returned, so...!"

"Go away." Before Qin Xiao finished speaking, another guard had already scolded: "Where is the Ministry of War? You are so bold to find someone to come to the Ministry of War." He waved his hand and said: "Get out of here."

Qin Xiao frowned. Although he knew that the Ministry of War Yamen was indeed very large and not accessible to ordinary people, the guard's attitude was really rude and he felt a little unhappy. However, he still said patiently: "Brothers, we are rushing from Xiling."

Came to Kyoto to report the news, this is a serious matter, I...!"

The guard didn't wait for Qin Xiao to finish speaking. With a "choking" sound, one of them pulled out his sword, pointed the blade at Qin Xiao, and said in a cold voice: "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear me tell you to get out?"

At this moment, I heard the sound of a carriage and saw a carriage parked in front of the door. An official got out of the carriage and the carriage left. The official frowned when he saw Qin Xiao, dressed in commoners, leading a horse in front of the yamen.

, asked: "Which yamen? What kind of style do you have?"

"Master Han, he said he came from Xiling and was looking for someone." A guard said respectfully: "We asked him to leave, but he still pestered us, so we were about to drive him away."

"Xiling?" Mr. Han glanced at Qin Xiao and asked, "What is your official status?"

"I am a subordinate of Han Duwei from the Zhenjun Duwei Mansion." Qin Xiao saw that this official was in his early fifties and seemed to be well-mannered and easy to talk to. He hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Han Duwei went to Beijing to report military information. He came here yesterday and has never returned.

, so come here and ask what’s going on.”

Mr. Han frowned and said, "If you don't go back, just wait and go to the Ministry of War to find someone. What kind of tricks can you do?" Without saying much, he walked away.

Qin Xiao said anxiously: "Sir, if Captain Han is in the military department, just tell me, I...!"

Lord Han suddenly turned around, stared at Qin Xiao and said, "Tell you something? Are you saying that the Ministry of War has something to report to you?"

"I don't mean that." Qin Xiao said: "I just want to wait until Captain Han has reported to the Ministry of War. There is an urgent military situation. If Captain Han does not report it in time, I will explain it to you immediately. We have worked hard all the way and ran to the military headquarters.

I came to the capital to report the military situation in Xiling to the imperial court...!"

"Even if the sky falls, there are still regulations." Mr. Han said bluntly: "What is your identity? When will it be the turn of people like you to make irresponsible remarks on military and national affairs? Get out of here."

Qin Xiao had just thought that this man was gentle and polite, but his tone was no different from that of a guard, and he was full of disdain for himself.

If he were not in front of the Ministry of War yamen, it would be difficult to cause trouble when he first arrived in Kyoto. He might have to teach him a lesson, but of course he couldn't do anything at this moment, let alone just leave.

Han Yunong did not return all night. If he had not been to the Ministry of War, it meant that something happened on the way to the Ministry of War. If he entered the Ministry of War and failed to come out, it would be even more unclear. Of course, Qin Xiao could not just ignore it and frowned.

Said: "Mr. Han, when the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. When something unexpected happens, isn't it what the people of the Tang Dynasty should do to report the truth to the court? You said that people like me can't make irresponsible remarks. Who am I?

Race people?"

Mr. Han obviously didn’t expect that this young man would have the courage to talk back to him. The other party, a commoner, did so in front of him.

The guards were arguing with themselves, and their faces suddenly became even more ugly. They asked: "You said you want to report urgent military information. Where did the military information come from? The captain of Zhenjun is just a thing as big as sesame seeds and mung beans, and you are just his subordinate.

What emergency military information can I know?"

Qin Xiao's face also looked a little ugly and said: "Could it be possible that the military situation that I saw with my own eyes could be fake?"

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?" Mr. Han sneered: "How can you prove that you saw it with your own eyes? If you make it up randomly, it will ruin the military situation. People like you can't afford ten lives." It seems that he and Yijie Commoner feel that they have seen it with their own eyes.

Arguing was disrespectful, so he waved his hand and said, "Drive him away." He ignored him and went straight to the official office.

Qin Xiao was anxious and took a step forward. Two guards with guns had already drawn their guns and pointed their spears at Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao knew in his heart that Kyoto was no better than a local place. If he really caused trouble in front of the Ministry of War Yamen, he would definitely not be able to reap the benefits. Seeing Mr. Han enter the official office, he sneered, took two steps back, and looked up at the "Military Deployment"

Bian Bian went over to lead his horse, thinking about how to find out about Han Yunong.

Unable to enter the Ministry of War Yamen, Qin Xiao thought of Du Hongsheng again.

Du Hongsheng went to the Ministry of Personnel to report on his work early yesterday morning and never returned. At present, he could not inquire about Han Yunong's situation, so he had to go to Du Hongsheng first. If he could find Du Hongsheng, Du Hongsheng had an official position and had served as an official in Kyoto.

It is unknown whether he has been in the official position and has some connections, so he may be able to find out about Han Yunong's situation.

The Libu Yamen is not on Zhuque Street. After Qin Xiao left Zhuque Street, he finally found out that the Libu Yamen was on Xuanwu Street on the west side of the imperial city. He could only go to Xuanwu Street again and found the Libu official office. Naturally, there were guards guarding the door.

, before he got close, a guard stopped him with his sword in his hand.

Qin Xiao knew that his commoner clothes were too conspicuous. Both Zhuque and Xuanwu streets were important places for government offices. Although there was no explicit order that ordinary people were not allowed to enter these two streets, in fact no one dared to set foot on them easily.

There are so many officials in this important place of the Six Ministries. Officials of the third and fourth grades have to lower their heads when walking on these two streets. Officials who come to Beijing from other places do not dare to glance around easily when they enter these two streets, lest they accidentally damage their future.

Totally destroyed.

The guards in various government offices have seen many high-ranking officials, and commoners like Qin Xiao are like ants in the eyes of these people.

However, he himself had no official status and no official uniform to wear. The guards did not even want to ask his identity and simply blocked the door.

Qin Xiao was still very polite this time and asked Du Hongsheng if Mr. Du was in the Libu Yamen. There was no difference between the guards at the Libu Yamen and the Military Bureau Yamen. He was full of disdain for Qin Xiao and even had a worse attitude. He did not answer at all. Qin Xiao

As he got closer, someone pointed a gun at him and drove Qin Xiao away like mosquitoes and ants.

Qin Xiao was angry, but there was nothing he could do.

He was alone, had no relatives in the capital, and had no connections at all. Even if he did have acquaintances, how could he be in trouble with the Liubu Yamen?

After leaving Xuanwu Street and riding on the horse, I felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

He really didn't know what happened to those two people. He wanted to find someone to understand the situation, but there was no one to find. He felt depressed. He returned to the inn and waited for another day until dark, but no one returned from their room.

Lying in bed, tossing and turning, I felt increasingly uneasy.

The three of them entered the capital, and the two of them lost news quietly. It was not even known whether they had reported the military situation in Xiling to the imperial court. If they had already contacted officials in the DPRK,

, no matter how detailed the narration of the Xiling Incident is, they should have come back long ago, and it is absolutely impossible that both of them will not be able to return.

What's more, he was an eyewitness to the Fan family's rebellion on New Year's Eve and saw the general being murdered. If the court really wanted to know more about the situation there, Han Yunong would definitely ask him to go and tell the story. There was no news, but it was the worst news.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind, and I thought of another important figure in the capital.

Tantai Xuanye, the commander of the Dragon Scale Imperial Guard!

Qin Xiao knew that Tantai Xuanye was the sworn brother of General Heiyu. Since they had become sworn brothers, the friendship between the two people was naturally very deep.

General Heiyu was killed. Once Tantai Xuanye learned about it, he would definitely be extremely sad and angry, and he would definitely want to know the details of the Xiling Incident. In this way, he could ask Tantai Xuanye to help him find the whereabouts of Han Yunong and Du Hongsheng.

whereabouts.

The Dragon Scale Guards are the Imperial City's imperial guards. As the commander of the Dragon Scales, Tantai Xuanye's position is naturally very important, and he must be trusted by the emperor.

Things that are extremely difficult for him would be almost nothing if they were placed in front of Tantai Xuanye. As long as he can come forward, many difficult problems can be solved easily.

Qin Xiao sighed inwardly. He had traveled all the way to the capital and wanted to report the urgent military situation to the court, but he didn't expect to find a way out.

The capital is indeed very big, as big as a sea. I am in the capital, but I am like a duckweed without roots. I look around blankly and feel extremely lonely.

Thinking of Tantai Xuanye, it was like seeing a ray of light in the dark night. Qin Xiao became excited. He regained his energy that night and went out early the next morning to inquire about Tantai Xuanye's residence.

Tantai Xuanye has a great reputation, but few people know about his mansion. After asking around all morning, and finally spending some money, I finally found out the location of Tantai Mansion.

Tantai Xuanye's mansion is located in Tianhefang in the east of the city, 108th Fang in Kyoto. Not many people know about Tianhefang.

Tianhefang is one of the eight upper houses in Kyoto.

The so-called Shangbafang is the place where dignitaries and dignitaries live in Beijing. The roads are wide, clean and tidy, and the mansions in the square are also very exquisite. Tianhefang is one of the Eighth Shangfang in Kyoto. You can live in Tianhefang.

People living there are either rich or noble, and owning a mansion there is a status symbol.

Qin Xiao doesn't care how famous Tianhefang is, he just wants to see Tantai Xuanye now.

Although Tantai Xuanye's status was extremely high, he was far from being comparable to him. Going to visit him suddenly at this time was not only sudden and even a little reckless, but he had to go.

Qin Xiao thought that since Tantai Xuanye and General Heiyu were sworn brothers, as the adopted son of the general, he would not be rejected if he went to visit them.

After asking around all the way, we finally arrived at Tianhe Square. As expected, the square was filled with mansions like clouds.

It is not that Qin Xiao has never seen mansions in Xiling, but the scale and elegance of any mansion here are not comparable to those of wealthy families in Xiling. Compared with the mansions here, the so-called mansions in Xiling seem extremely shabby.

After finally finding a mansion on the east side of Tianhefang, "Tantai Mansion" was clearly written on the door. Qin Xiao felt happy and got off his horse. There were no guards outside the mansion, but the Zhumen were closed, and Qin Xiao was in front of the door.
