Chapter 477 This is not the result the Mo family wants
The other men in the Mohist school had the same idea. When they heard their eldest brother express their thoughts, they all came out to agree.
"Brother is right. As long as we brothers work together, we will make sure they never return."
Mo Jiuye’s thoughts were not as easy as his brothers thought.
"Mr. Fei was able to write a letter to remind her of this matter, which shows that the Queen has made a big move this time.
On the way to the northwest, the exile team encountered several ambushes. There were at least a hundred assassins sent by Nan Heng.
As far as I know, the assassins used by the Queen and Nan Heng were secretly trained by the Xue family. This time, the assassins sent by the Queen must also be from the Xue family camp.
Judging from the last situation, the number of assassins trained by the Xue family must be quite large, especially since they are sincere in their intention to destroy the Mo family. If they make another move, the number of them will definitely not be small."
"Ninth brother, even if your analysis is correct, we brothers have all survived the battlefield. Who have we ever been afraid of in our lives?" Mo Chuhan was still a little unconvinced. He felt that his ninth brother had become timid.
Mo Jiuye has indeed become more courageous.
"Myna, do you know when you all reported back the news of death one by one?
My mother and sisters-in-law were living a life worse than death, crying all day long. Now, after going through so much hardship, our Mo family is finally reunited. I don’t want the scene of the past to be repeated.
What's more, now I have a wife and children, and I have two elders who need my care. My life is no longer mine alone.
Before taking any risk, I always put safety first.”
"Jiu Ye is right. My Mo family has already suffered a great disaster. Now that we are finally reunited, we can no longer withstand any more blows. This matter must be carefully considered and we must not act rashly."
As Mo Qing spoke, his eyes darted back and forth among his sons.
This kind of look is very familiar to the men of the Mohist School. In the past, when they were on the battlefield, their father would sit in the tent and call his subordinates to discuss matters with him, and he would use such a sharp look.
For a moment, all the men of the Mohist School were on high alert and instantly got into their roles, just like they were on high alert on the battlefield back then.
Mo Qing also naturally got into the role at this moment.
"Jiuye, do you have any good countermeasures at this time?"
"Dad, no matter how we deal with it, the premise is to keep our own people safe."
"Well, tell me your specific method."
Just now, while everyone was arguing, Mo Jiuye was quickly thinking of a countermeasure.
"Mr. Fei received the news seven days ago. If the Queen's men started to act at that time, then they would arrive in the northwest seven days later at the earliest.
It is not difficult for those old subordinates to use bombs; they can learn it with just a little guidance.
I plan to use these few days to train them on how to use bombs.
Of course, bombs make too much noise, so it’s best not to use them if possible. You could also say that bombs are the last trump card of our Mohist school.
I also have some repeating crossbows that can fire twenty times in a row, and I will distribute these to everyone.
Starting today, within seven days at the latest, I will have my men armed with crossbows and bombs hidden along the route to Yuncheng, ensuring they never return."
\"Well, what Jiuye said makes sense. We must not give them the opportunity to enter Yuncheng." Mo Qing fully agreed with Mo Jiuye's suggestion.
Not to mention that there were so many female members of the Mo family and two newborn babies who had no ability to avoid danger. The same was true for the villagers in Xiling Village.
Once those assassins arrive here, the Mohists will certainly resist, and when they fight, innocent people will inevitably be hurt.
This is not the result the Mo family wants.
"It's decided. You brothers will arrange this matter." Mo Xing made the final decision. Logically, he wanted Mo Jiuye to have full authority to arrange this matter, but considering that He Zhiran and the two children still needed his care, he let his sons do it together.
Of course, he believed that his other sons were fully capable of following Mo Jiuye's instructions.
Seeing that the Mo family had made preparations, Meng Huaining felt a little more at ease.
Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, Mo Qing stopped him.
This was the first time his father-in-law had called him since he married Mo Hanyue.
Mo Qing waved his hand, sent his sons away first, and then asked Meng Huaining to sit next to him.
"You are well aware of the current situation of the Mo family. It is not as peaceful as it seems. God is unfair and doesn't even give us a peaceful life.
In this case, my Mo family is not a soft persimmon that can be easily manipulated. Judging from the current situation, at best, we are secretly resisting the people sent by Queen Lu, but in fact, we are in great danger.
Hanyue is my only daughter, I don't want her to be implicated in anything, she is now your wife in the Meng family, I hope you can take her away from the Mo family."
Mo Qing didn't say the rest of the words, because he knew Meng Huaining could understand what he meant.
Meng Huaining stood up solemnly and saluted Mo Qing.
"Father-in-law, Huaining is not a coward. Now that I live with the Mo family, I have already considered myself a member of the Mo family. How can I retreat just to survive when the Mo family is in trouble?
If that happens, even if my grandfather were still alive, he would not forgive me.
The sages' books say that people can be incapable, but they cannot be heartless and ungrateful. Besides, I understand the situation of the Mohist school. When my grandfather was alive, he was also suspected..."
Both of them knew that the person who suspected them was the foolish Emperor Shunwu.
"Father-in-law, since things have come to this, Huaining will tell you the truth.
I didn't want to become an official because my grandfather died unjustly, and I just wanted to clear his name through my own efforts.
But in the past few years in officialdom, I have seen everything clearly. Having such a foolish emperor in Dashun is a nightmare for the people.
Besides, Huaining has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Although he is not as good as his brothers, he has no problem protecting Hanyue.
Please trust Huaining, as long as I am still breathing, I will protect Hanyue, and I will stand by the Mo family forever."
Mo Qing didn't expect Meng Huaining to have such an attitude. The Mo family is now in a turbulent situation, and anyone who gets involved is likely to be killed.
At the same time, he also admired his son-in-law's integrity and courage.
He was not the kind of person who would fuss around, and he could also see that Meng Huaining's attitude was very firm. In that case, it would be futile to persuade him any further.
"Although you are unwilling to take Hanyue with you to protect yourself, I still hope that you can protect yourselves."
"Don't worry, father-in-law, Huaining understands."
Both of them had the same idea, and without saying much, they understood each other tacitly.
Mo Qing shifted slightly and said, "It's getting late. You should go back and rest!"
"Father-in-law, please rest early. Huaining will take his leave."
As soon as Meng Huaining opened the door, he heard a dog barking outside.
