Sanyang Palace?

Could the King of Shanyang be the one who colluded with the Beirong secret spies? Judging from his relationship with the current imperial family, there is such a possibility, but judging from the situation he has been in the past few decades, the power he can hold in his hands, and the chance of success in becoming the heir of the East Palace, it is completely impossible!

Who is the king of Sanyo? The son of the current holy emperor's uncle and the cousin of the present emperor are far from the blood relationship with the imperial family than many people. His father helped other princes to win the throne in the past, and he is one of the main culprits who caused the current emperor's family to be weak. Just because he was not the main culprit, the crime was relatively light, he died again, his wife committed suicide, and a young son was left, who was regarded as a living sign of Kuanren by Jinshang, and casually sealed the title of the county king of Shanyang, gave a few family members, some land property, and the annual county king Yulu, and let him fend for himself. Every year, the royal family is bound to pull out the king of Shanyang and show off in front of the public, so as to show how kind and generous the emperor is, so the talented people in the world who have mistakenly attached themselves to other forces don't have to worry anymore, just rest assured to contribute your talents to the wise monarch!

However, everyone in the capital knew in their hearts that the king of Shanyang was just a living signboard, with no power, no power, no land, and even Qin Song, who was not very well treated by the emperor in the past, could look down on him and casually shut him out of the house, and the king of Shanyang did not dare to complain. In addition to the time when the King of Shu entered Beijing, because he was raised in the Queen Mother's palace with the King of Shu when he was a child, he had a little friendship, and the Princess of Shanyang and the Princess of Shu were sisters of the same clan, and the couple also helped the King of Shu to shout everywhere, and when the officials and nobles were wooed, the scenery passed for a while, and now they are still half-dead.

At the beginning, his family relied on the king of Shu, and he was able to turn his head and force Qin Jian to go south with Sanfang to Jinling in order not to marry the lord of Shanyang Wang, and he didn't know how arrogant the villain who was once powerful. But after the accident in the Shu Palace, his family quickly severed relations with the Shu Palace, and even the Tu family, the maiden home of Princess Shanyang, also cut off contact. This snobbish attitude made many people even more despised. In recent years, the Shanyang Royal Mansion has no money, no power, no connections and no reputation, and it can be said that it is the representative of the gods and ghosts in the clan, and most people are not happy to associate with them. If they say that they have the confidence to stir up the troubled waters of the dispute with the emperor and heir, who believes it?

But if the clan is not dead, it is impossible for the royal family to choose the children of the Shanyang Royal Mansion as heirs.

What's more, King Shanyang gave birth to three daughters in a row, and it was not until a few years ago that he finally got a son, which he regarded as a treasure. If he succeeded this child, wouldn't he be the heir again? It is reasonable for the king of Shanyang to have such thoughts!

Zhao Mo felt that it might just be a coincidence: "Maybe it's just a coincidence." The granges around the capital are almost all the properties of princes and nobles and wealthy families, and it is not surprising that there will be Zhuangzi in the Shanyang Palace. "As for the head of the palace appearing in the local area, maybe it's just because spring sowing is coming?

Zhao Mo asked Ah Shou: "Lord Yuan is searching in that area now, right? Since next to it is the Zhuangzi of the Shanyang Palace, he must have searched it?"

Ah Shou nodded and replied: "It is true that I searched it, but I searched his Zhuangzi first, but I didn't find anyone." However, some villagers from other nearby Zhuangzi said that they saw someone like Xiao like the leader of the secret spy going in the direction of Zhuangzi in the Shanyang Palace. Therefore, even if no one was found, Lord Yuan did not dare to take it lightly, and sent a team of men and horses to stay in the village before leaving. ”

Zhao Mo nodded, not very concerned about Yuan Tongzhi's search for the Zhuangzi of Shanyang Wangfu first. When you encounter a soft sub and need to pinch it, you naturally don't have to worry about it. He asked Ah Shou again: "How far is that place from the Tu family Zhuangzi, who was born as a coachman?"

Ah Shou thought for a while: "It's about four or five miles away, speaking of which, it's almost next to each other." The two Zhuangzi households also often come and go. ”

So close?!Zhao Mo began to feel that maybe the spy leader was just borrowing the Zhuangzi of the Shanyang Palace, and the destination was very likely to be in the Tu family Zhuangzi.

However, the news he received from the people below was a little unexpected. Yuan Tongzhi also went to Tujia Zhuangzi, but he didn't find any suspicious people for the time being, only that the coachman acted as usual, still acting in the capital, and never returned home. However, an old lady in his neighborhood died a few days ago, and the family was holding a funeral, which attracted many relatives and friends who mourned. Tujia Zhuangzi has been coming and going in the past two days, and the situation is a little complicated.

In order not to startle the snake, Yuan Tongzhi and others went to the village to inquire about the villagers under the pretext that the officials of the Shuntian Mansion were sent to arrest the Jiangyang thieves. According to the villagers' reactions, they have never seen any fresh faces, and the relatives and friends who came to mourn and burn incense all know the details of their origins. Yuan Tongzhi turned around a few times, but found no abnormality, so he could only leave a few people to keep an eye on as usual, and then continued to take the men and horses to search for the leader of the Beirong secret spies.

Yuan Tongzhi had already sent someone to deliver the letter back to the city, and asked the people from the secret spy department to keep an eye on the coachman first, even if he couldn't put the person in prison immediately, so he couldn't lose someone. When the need arises, they can immediately arrest people.

Just when Yuan Tongzhi couldn't find the leader of the Beirong secret spy no matter how much he searched, and the other party seemed to have evaporated from the world, things took a turn for the better.

The dead old lady in Tu's Zhuangzi was buried in the ancestral grave after seven days of inactivity at home. The person carrying the coffin noticed that her coffin seemed to be unusually heavy. This old lady is just a thin figure, and her family is not a rich and noble family, so she has not been able to add any buried valuables to her. In addition to her in the coffin, there are only a few old clothes and old things, and the family can't use them, so they just accompany the old man to bury them. The coffin was not made of good wood, and when it was first brought from the coffin shop, it only took two people to lift it. But now, the four children and grandchildren worked together to barely lift the coffin a little bit, which is completely unreasonable!

The villagers were ignorant, and some people cried and shouted that the old man had no grievances and refused to leave? Some relatives of the old man's mother's family pointed at her children and grandchildren and scolded them, asking them if they had treated the old lady badly? How could the old man's children and grandchildren be convinced? They asked themselves if they were very filial, they had never treated the old lady badly, and the old lady was also dying, so what grievances could there be? It must be that the coffin was too heavy, or the rope that carried the coffin was too thin, or some other reason, in short, it was not their responsibility!

As a result, the members of the bereaved family bustled with each other to change the ropes and wooden poles for carrying the coffin, some people checked the ground conditions, and some suggested that another powerful son and nephew come over to take a hand, or directly add someone to carry the coffin. When everyone lifted the coffin and walked out smoothly, Yuan Tongzhi also got the news and rushed over.

The coffin was indeed unreasonably much heavier than normal, and the villagers couldn't imagine it, but Yuan Tongzhi was a careful person and had already sensed that there was something wrong inside. He stopped the mourners, ordered his subordinates to open the lid of the coffin, and then found a tall strange man in the coffin who had been dead for a long time because he couldn't breathe.

The mysterious leader of the Beirong secret spies seemed to hide in the coffin while people were unprepared in order to avoid the pursuers, but he didn't expect the bereaved family to quickly nail the coffin lid and suffocate him to death inside. No wonder Yuan Tongzhi and his party couldn't find him no matter how much they searched, who could have guessed that he would stay with the dead? It's just that this seemingly clever hiding place also made him a real dead man. At the same time, all the secrets he held became secrets that no one seemed to be able to investigate clearly, with his death.

Yuan Tongzhi returned to Beijing to report angrily. The only thing he can count on now is probably the seriously injured and unconscious Beirong secret spy, right? The clan that has colluded with the Beirong people, no one still knows who it is. Although King Sanyang has become one of the suspects, no matter how he looks at it, he doesn't know that elephant is a capable person. Even if the Beirong spies don't know the internal situation of Jokhang, they have been mixed in the Jokhang territory for many years, and it is impossible not to know the situation of the Shanyang Palace. Judging from their trust and respect for that "nobleman" of Dazhao, King Shanyang could not be the person they colluded with.

Zhao Mo listened to Yuan Tongzhi's report in the palace silently, and was extremely depressed. The emperor and the crown prince were much calmer than him, and let him just go back and wait for news, it was impossible for the secret spy department to just throw away his hands and not investigate. Even if the leader of the Beirong secret spy died in the coffin, how did he escape to that house, and how did he get into the coffin and hide it? When the old lady died, he hadn't escaped, and there were people coming and going in the mourning hall, and he was able to hide the eyes of the old lady's children and grandchildren, which was unreasonable. In short, even if someone else dies, there are still clues to continue to investigate.

Zhao Mo obeyed the order, and he really didn't ask too much, and went back to the other courtyard. Before entering the door, Ah Xing came to report to him: "The study over there has been investigated, and it has indeed been tampered with, I don't know when the thing was stuffed in, no one found it......" He lowered his voice and whispered in Zhao Mo's ear for a long time.

Zhao Mo nodded. He had expected this, but he wasn't in a hurry to get his hands on it. There are some things that must be witnessed by his father Zhao Shuo in order to win the latter's trust.

He paced back and forth in the study for a few laps, and finally made up his mind and called Ah Shou: "I want to send a message to the Yongjiahou Mansion, ask the third cousin to come over, and say that I have something serious to discuss with her." ”

Ah Shou was stunned: "Would you like to invite Miss Qin San to come over?" I'm afraid that Yongjiahou and his wife will ...... over there" Usually Zhao Mo went to Yongjiahou's mansion, and Miss Qin San was still a girl who had not left the cabinet, so I was afraid that it would be inconvenient to come to her fiancé's house alone. What's more, at this time, not only Yongjiahou and his wife were in the mansion, but even Qin San's father and cousin were also at home. Lord Wu is about to get married, and the Yongjiahou Mansion is busy. At this time, where can I easily invite Miss Qin San over quietly? I must first obtain the permission of her elders. And her elders are definitely not so good at talking.

Zhao Mo could only smile bitterly. Even if it wasn't easy, he needed to invite Qin Hanzhen over. There are some things that he can't say to Qin Bai and Qin Ping, but there is nothing taboo with Qin Hanzhen. And the Yongjiahou Mansion is full of troubles, so naturally it is not as clean and safe as his other courtyard. If you want to discuss confidential matters, it is safer for the other courtyard than the Yongjiahou Mansion!

Zhao Mo was eager to meet Qin Hanzhen and talk. He felt that his mind was already a little chaotic, and that he needed someone to sort out his thoughts. This kind of thing, except for Qin Hanzhen, who else can help him? 2k reading web
