Mo Chuhan was also following the exile team for some time. At that time, he did not have much contact with those officials like Mo Jiuye because he was injured.
Despite this, he also knew that those officials took good care of their family.
It was also because of their care that their family did not suffer too much along the way.
Now that he heard all those officials had died, he inevitably felt sad.
"Ninth brother, I'll take some capable men to the Capital City to get rid of those people who keep thinking of ways to deal with our Mo Family," said Mo Chuhan.
Mo Jiuye had just had the same idea, so he did not refute his eighth brother's words.
It would be more practical to get rid of them once and for all than to counter their moves one by one.
"Eighth brother, we still need to plan this carefully, especially now when we can't leave the northwest," Mo Jiuye said.
Mo Chuhan asked impatiently, "Why?"
"I just received news from the Capital City. Lord Zhou also came to report that the people sent by the Empress should be on their way.
If I guess correctly, the assassins sent by the Empress will arrive in about seven days."
The eldest brother also patted Mo Chuhan on the shoulder.
"Eighth brother, ninth brother is right. We have to resolve the immediate crisis first.
Also, the Empress and the Xue Family can train so many assassins because their security is very tight. Even if we go to the Capital City, we must have a detailed plan to ensure success."
Mo Chuhan knew his eldest and ninth brother made sense, but he just couldn't restrain the anger in his heart.
"I just want to take their dog lives immediately."
Although He Ziming was not from the Mo Family, this was his sister's in-laws. He also understood the situation in the imperial court and sympathized with what had happened to the Mo Family.
But it was still inappropriate to discuss such things in front of an outsider like him.
He coughed lightly and said, "The brother from the Capital City is still very weak. I'll go order some suitable food for him."
Only then did Mo Chuhan realize he had lost his composure in front of an outsider.
He looked awkwardly at He Ziming's leaving figure and sighed deeply.
"Anyway, after resolving the immediate crisis, I will definitely go to the Capital City."
Just as he finished speaking, Mo Jiuye strode out.
Because he heard Xiao Bai's cry.
Xiao Bai had been away in the Capital City for quite a long time, over half a month.
Just yesterday, he and He Zhiran were talking about how Xiao Bai had not returned with any news yet. And today the little guy came back.
With so many things happening, Mo Jiuye did not tease Xiao Bai like usual before checking the note. He directly took the note off Xiao Bai's leg.
The note was still handwritten by Fei Nanyu.
The content was like an extension of the news brought by Meng Huaining.
Three days ago, he discovered the Xue Family had sent out hundreds of masters from the Capital City. He secretly sent people to follow them and found out they were heading northwest.
After confirming the news was accurate, he let Xiao Bai bring the message back to notify Mo Jiuye to make preparations in advance.
At the same time, Fei Nanyu also analyzed when the assassins would arrive in the northwest.
The three days ago he mentioned was before he wrote the letter. His people had followed them for three more days before doubling back. It would take Xiao Bai two days to fly back to the northwest.
That meant the assassins would arrive at the border in about seven days.
This was consistent with Mo Jiuye and his family's calculations.
Fei Nanyu also mentioned Nan Rui. It had to be said, he really knew how to handle big matters.
In the letter, Mo Jiuye told Nan Rui he went to the Capital City to help resolve the Mo Family's crisis. He also explained that Nan Rui had left his most important relative, Consort De, here.
This alone showed Nan Rui could be trusted.
If it was an ordinary person, or an overly suspicious ruler like Emperor Shunwu, they would still find many reasons to doubt Nan Rui's intentions even if they were pure.
But Fei Nanyu did not, because he understood how important Consort De was to Nan Rui.
To repay the Mo Family, and to avoid arousing their suspicion, he actually left his own mother in the northwest.
From this it could be seen that Nan Rui had no ulterior motives.
If such a person still could not be trusted, then who could he trust?
Using people without doubt and doubting people without use, Fei Nanyu applied this very well.
This was also why the historical records showed that many capable ministers were cultivated during Fei Nanyu's reign, creating a rare prosperous empire in history.
Of course, that was for later. In the letter, Fei Nanyu only said that Nan Rui had established covert contact with him.
Although he did not explain in detail, Mo Jiuye could ascertain they had reached a consensus. As for the specifics, he did not intend to care too much. After all, it was the royal family's business.
At present, he only wanted his small family to safely get through the current crisis.
After reading the letter, Mo Jiuye did not immediately discuss the contents with his brothers.
He let Liang Hao stay here for now to take care of Lord Zhou, and called his brothers back to the main house.
Although Fei Nanyu's news was slightly more accurate than what Meng Huaining brought, the original defense plans did not need much change.
Mo Jiuye gathered everyone only because he wanted to announce the contents of the letter, to let them be more clear about the situation.
It was not until late at night that Mo Jiuye returned with Xiao Bai.
When Mo Jiuye was away, Madam He was worried that taking care of two babies would be too tiring for her daughter. So she and Granny Li stayed in her room until her son-in-law returned.
He Zhiran rested in her room every day. Her sisters-in-law took turns coming to help care for the two babies.
With nothing to do during the day, she would take a nap.
So at this time, she was not sleepy either.
She knew Seventh Uncle had successfully brought his former men back today. Mo Jiuye returning late must be because of this.
But unexpectedly, Mo Jiuye brought news that shocked her.
"Husband, you're saying Brother Peng and the others were all harmed?"
This was completely unexpected for He Zhiran. Recalling the officials during the exile, although they were fierce in the beginning, they took very good care of the Mo Family later on.
Especially Peng Wang. Although they were a little discordant in the beginning, they got along very well later.
And after getting to know each other for a few months, they also knew Peng Wang was a decent person.
Thinking of his death, He Zhiran felt sad.
There were over a dozen officials escorting them to the northwest. For them to die in vain like this, the Empress's people were truly ruthless in order to achieve their goals.
Mo Jiuye's mood was also very heavy. He understood his daughter-in-law's feelings.
But it had already happened, so all they could do was find an opportunity to avenge them.
Mo Chuhan was also following the exile team for some time. At that time, he did not have much contact with those officials like Mo Jiuye because he was injured.
Despite this, he also knew that those officials took good care of their family.
It was also because of their care that their family did not suffer too much along the way.
