Chapter 100: Jiangdu Palace Supervisor (2)
Yang Guang actually has a time when he feels that he is wrong? It seems that Yan Cong's status in his heart is not low. I also discovered an irony in this, that cruel and unkind people may also be extremely religious, probably because of fear of retribution.
After the canal was opened, the journey from north to south was much faster, which can be regarded as the only benefit of those projects that cost people and money.
The scenery along the river is not good-looking, everywhere you go is a withered grass, although the north is sluggish, but the depression is very atmospheric, the south is different, although the weeping poplars on the bank are still glowing with residual green, but it is even more bleak, I can't help but feel depressed.
Yang Guang's interest was very high, and he admired his canal projects along the way. When he arrived in Jiangdu, he came to pick up Wang Juncheng, who was with Yu Wenzhi and that day, that is, Wang Shichong, and I heard Ding Cheng say that he made Zhang Heng lose his official position and did the errand of the palace eunuch in Jiangdu.
In order to cater to Yang Guang, he forced the people to work day and night, and finally built Jiangdu into another Luoyang within a year...... I thought of the tragic situation outside Luoyang City back then, and the situation in Jiangdu can be imagined.
Looking at Yang Guangqi's long figure, I was bewildered by his reserved and solemn appearance and admired him very much, and now he is a lot older, although he is not as chic as he was back then, but he is still full of passion between his gestures, and his exuberant energy can prove this. I think there must be some kind of belief in his heart that supports him, so that he will not hesitate to step on the white bones of his own people to achieve his hegemony as an emperor through the ages.
I felt a little strange as I pondered, someone was looking at me...... When I came back to my senses, Wang Shichong was looking at me with a sinister gaze, and he smiled maliciously when I met his gaze, which I didn't think was an illusion.
Ding Cheng obviously noticed this as well, and also turned his head to look at me, his eyes becoming very vigilant.
One thing is clear, this person is in the same group as Yuwen Zhihe. He also worked with Yang Xuangan to rectify Zhang Heng, so he is also in a group with Yang Xuangan? Now Yang Guang is very fond of him, this person is really not simple.
is such a person who seems to want to harm me at any time, not only took the initiative to get close to me, but also told me a little conspiracy - about Yang Yong, the king of Qi.
I was at the gate of the Jiangdu Palace that day, looking up at the tall palace gate and trying to figure out why Yang Guang liked to build the palace so much, a voice appeared behind me and said: "Xiao Cavalry Captain is so interested, is there anything wrong with this palace gate?" ”
I turned my head and saw that it was Wang Shichong!
I was quite jealous of him when I first met, and I wanted to get as far away from him as possible, but he took the initiative to talk to me? On second thought, as deceitful as he may be, how can I be afraid of him?
Thinking of this, I arched my hand and said, "Jun Cheng smiled." I feel that this palace is very well built, and the queen mother is full of praise at first sight, and His Majesty also likes it very much, which shows that Jun Cheng's ability to guess the king's heart is really not bad. ”
In fact, this sentence is a bit sarcastic, but Wang Shichong was not angry, only sighed with a smile: "Xiao Lieutenant is really young and vigorous!" ”
I arched my hand again and said, "Jun Cheng's words are serious." ”
Wang Shichong glanced around, and said: "I heard that Captain Xiao likes to drink tea, can you be invited by a certain person to go to the teahouse to sit less?" ”
I excused myself and said, "There's still something going on, I'm afraid it's ......."
He waved his hand and said, "Is it more important than the life of the horseman?" If you don't go, I'm afraid you'll regret it. ”
I heard what he said, thought for a while and nodded, "Since that's the case, the county please." ”
Jiangdu actually didn't have a drunken Hongjian teahouse, I don't think it's very scientific, at least for now, Jiangdu's prosperity is not inferior to Luoyang, whether it's doing business or collecting news, there should be one.
But no.
I didn't even see the name of the largest teahouse, the teahouse was obviously not drunk, the boss was a woman, and the only guy was less than ten years old.
I looked at Wang Shichong suspiciously, and only after a while did I ask: "In the prosperous land of Jiangdu, why is it that the largest teahouse is just like this?" ”
Wang Shichong said: "Gongzi thinks that Jiangdu Xinggong is conjured out of thin air? ”
I was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant, and looked at the proprietress sitting behind the counter, feeling a little sympathy for her.
When she saw a guest coming, she came over very attentively and asked, "I wonder what the two guests like to drink?" ”
Wang Shichong didn't raise his head and said coldly: "Do you have much else to drink here?" Just pick up what you can drink. ”
The proprietress looked at Wang Shichong carefully, trembling as if she had been suddenly electrocuted, she took several steps back, gritted her teeth and whispered, "Wang Shichong...... Guncheng ......"
Wang Shichong sneered: "Do you recognize me? ”
The young man on the side opened his eyes wide, saw that the proprietress was wrong, turned around and entered the back hall, and after a while, he brought a tea tray, staggered in front of us, and said, "The guest officer uses it slowly." As he spoke, he tugged at the proprietress again's clothes, "Mother, are you uncomfortable?" ”
Wang Shichong said again: "Your son is much more sensible than you, just go!" ”
The proprietress was dragged into the back hall by the young man.
I couldn't stand it, and was about to ask, but Wang Shichong said: "Son, don't be nosy, care about yourself." ”
I stopped what I was about to say and asked, "I don't know what the so-called alarmist words mean?" ”
He laughed, "Alarmist? Could it be that you were almost killed by Yuwen Zhihe is also alarmist? ”
I was stunned and asked, "Jun Cheng mentioned it, but I don't know why Yuwen Zhihe did this to me." ”
Wang Shichong said: "Yu Wenhua and in order to help you, he actually implicated the doctor Yuan Zhou of Si Li, you have been back to Beijing for so long, haven't you heard that Yuan Zhou was killed for angering His Majesty?" ”
I've heard of this, but it's not a big deal, but I complained about Yang Guang's behavior twice, which made Yang Guang very unhappy, so he lost his head.
Wang Shichong continued: "Yuan Guan's death, on the surface, was only because of his unscrupulous words, but in fact, he was already disgusted by His Majesty when King Qi was convicted. But Yuwen Zhihe's wife is the youngest daughter of Yuanxuan, although Yuwen Zhihe loves to look for flowers and ask willows, but he respects his wife very much, he wants revenge, he can't find his eldest brother, of course, he can only find you. ”
So that's what happened! I really want to ask Yu Wenhua and why he wants to let Yuan Zhou carry this pot, can't he change people?
I nodded, a little puzzled.
Wang Shichong continued: "Although Yuwen Zhihe and the King of Qi are not on good terms, they have a common enemy. Do you think that the change of Luoyang Jianguomen happened to be touched by the King of Qi by chance? ”
I was shocked again in my heart - this incident made the people of Luoyang panic, is it just a ploy? Yang Yun actually used everyone in Luoyang City as a chess piece?
