When Xiao Yan got the news of Yang Lian's assassination, he was so shocked that his hair almost stood up. was assassinated in Dali Temple, Xiao Yan has a responsibility that cannot be shirked, and Yang Lian is a particularly important prisoner, how can he not make him nervous?

King Qi's personality has always been better, if he learns the news, he may not have much reaction, but if it is Princess Huairou, I'm afraid this matter can't be good! Thinking of this, Xiao Yan immediately set off to see Yang Lian. Yang Lian had been transferred to a side room, where Han Chongde was pacing restlessly.

At this time, Yang Lian was lying on the soft couch, and the doctor was feeling the pulse. When Han Chongde saw Xiao Yan coming in, he hurriedly walked a few steps and said, "Xiao Siqing!" ”

"No need to be polite, how is Yang Lian?" Xiao Yan asked.

"I was stabbed, although the knife wound is not serious, but the dagger is poisonous, and the doctor is treating it." Han Chongde replied.

Xiao Yan nodded, with a depressed face, and asked, "Who is the murderer?" ”

"It's a woman in black, this woman is very strong, she just caught her and committed suicide." Han Chongde shook his head.

"That's a big problem!" Xiao Yan sighed, he didn't even know who the assassin was, if His Majesty blamed him, how would he answer?

Han Chongde coughed and said softly: "Although this woman's identity is special, I found a special mark on her. On her shoulder, there is a tiger claw engraved, but I don't know what this tiger claw represents. ”

"Tigerclaw?" Xiao Yan was stunned, in his impression, there seemed to be no such organization.

Although Yang Lian was lying on the soft couch, his ears were extremely sharp, he caught the conversation between the two, and he couldn't help but be stunned, tiger claws! He'd seen tiger claws on several people! The Taihu Lake water thieves are one of them, and then, the people who assassinated Huairou and followed him in Xiaoxiang Pavilion all had a significant feature, that is, they also had tiger claws on their bodies.

So far, Yang Lian doesn't understand what the tiger claw represents, but now that he has been assassinated, it means that this organization is very close to him, and they are his enemies. Could it be Li Hongji? Judging by the current situation, he has this possibility.

When Yang Lian was guessing, the doctor had already put down Yang Lian's wrist and said, "Yang Jiedu, the injury is fine, as for this poison, although it is unusual, it can finally be detoxified." The old decay went to prepare herbs to detoxify Yang Jiedu. ”

"Thank you, sir!" Yang Lian said.

"Being able to work for Yang Jiedu is a blessing for old age!" The doctor was very polite to Yang Lian, after all, he was a festival envoy, a second-class member of the imperial court, how could he be compared to a commoner?

Yang Lian only felt groggy, this poison was a little numb, and immediately closed his eyes and recuperated.

The doctor got up, and after saying a few words to Xiao Yan and Han Chongde, he took the child to grab the medicine.

Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "Alas, when King Yan and the prime minister came, I knew that this matter was not good, and I didn't want to arrest Yang Lian, but Yang Lian happily admitted it and went to prison very cooperatively, so I really had no choice." ”

"Maybe Yang Lian knew that King Qi would definitely protect him, so he lived in Dali Temple happily!" Han Chongde said.

"It's a bad thing for him to live here, who is the mastermind behind this assassin, if you can't find out, it will be a dereliction of duty in Dali Temple!" Xiao Yan said.

These words made Han Chongde fall silent, both of them are from Dali Temple, so they naturally advance and retreat together, if this matter is not solved well, they will inevitably be punished. In the silence, something bad came, and a small official hurriedly walked over and said, "Xiao Siqing, Gonggong Gao is here." ”

Gao Gonggong is naturally Gao Ze, Xiao Yan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly greeted him.

When Gao Ze saw Xiao Yan, he smiled and said, "Xiao Siqing, our family was ordered by His Majesty to ask Yang Lian and Yang Jiedu to go and ask questions. ”

Xiao Yan sighed in his heart, feeling that something was wrong, but he didn't dare to hide it, so he had to say: "Gao Gonggong, just in Shicai, Dali Temple broke into an assassin and stabbed Yang Jiedu, the dagger was also quenched with poison, and now Yang Jiedu is lying on the soft couch, waiting to expel the poison, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Your Majesty." ”

"What?" When Gao Ze heard this, his spirit suddenly became nervous, and he said sharply: "What are you talking about, Yang Jiedu was assassinated?!" ”

"Yes." Xiao Yan felt ashamed in her heart, and her voice lowered.

Gao Ze frowned and asked, "Has this murderer ever been caught?" ”

"The Assassin has committed suicide." Han Chongde hurriedly replied.

Gao Ze snorted coldly and said, "In this way, I don't even know who the assassin is. Hehe, this kind of thing happened in Dali Temple, it's really unbelievable. ”

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, he had a responsibility that he couldn't shirk in this matter, so he had to give it up and said, "I naturally want Your Majesty to make this matter clear." ”

Gao Ze said that he was just a eunuch, and he had no real power, and he couldn't control Dali Temple, so he complained a few words, and said: "Take our family to see Yang Jiedu." ”

"Grandpa Gao, please come here!" Xiao Yan knew that Gao Ze was a celebrity in front of His Majesty, so he naturally wanted to curry favor with him at this time, so he led the way.

Gao Ze followed Xiao Yan and Han Chongde into the door, and saw Yang Lian lying on the soft couch, his face was already a little dark, and he was really poisoned.

"Yang Jiedu, have you ever felt better?" Gao Ze asked softly.

Yang Lian heard the voice, opened his eyes, and saw that it was Gao Ze, so he smiled and said, "Father-in-law Gao, don't worry, Yang Lian's life is very hard, and he can't die." ”

Gao Ze saw that although his face was a little dark, his spirit was not bad, and his speech was powerful, a stone fell in his heart, and said: "You can recuperate with peace of mind first, Your Majesty, I am naturally measured." ”

"There is Lao Gao's father-in-law!" Yang Lian thanks.

"This is our family's business, and it is also Yang Jiedu's kindness." Gao Ze's speech was a little confusing, and as he spoke, Gao Ze stood up and said, "Let's go back to the palace, Xiao Siqing, Yang Jiedu is in your hands, and there must be no accident." ”

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Father-in-law Gao, don't worry, there won't be a second time like this." ”

"Would you like a second time?" Gao Ze glanced at him sideways and walked out.

In the imperial city, Li Jing was talking to Li Jingsui about this, and in just two days, folds like snowflakes flew into the imperial city, several times more than usual. Looking at the mountain of folds, Li Jing sneered and said, "These folds, are they all impeached by Yang Lian?" ”

Li Jingsui nodded and said: "Yes, the content of the impeachment this time is even more outrageous, some say that Yang Lian usually bullies men and women, and does all kinds of evil, and most of the people of Jinling suffer from it." In addition, there are some excerpts, saying that Yang Lian is a native of Wu Yue, and the lord of Wu Yue sent him to the Tang Dynasty to make trouble, with the purpose of subverting the Tang Dynasty. ”

"It's even more ridiculous than the previous two days!" Li Jing snorted coldly.

"There is an even more ridiculous one, there is an excerpt, which is an excerpt of Han Xizai who is far away in Hezhou, he said that Yang Lian is the old prince of the previous dynasty, and he hopes that His Majesty will see it and behead him." Li Jingsui said.

Hezhou is on the other side of the quarry rock, located in Jiangbei, one hundred and fifty miles away from Jinling, how can it take two days to take a boat, Han Xizai's excerpts are so fast, Li Jing is not stupid, and suddenly thought that there are so many excerpts, someone wants to target Yang Lian.

Moreover, the excerpts of the past two days were actually impeached against Yang Lian! said that it was not a premeditated action, and Li Jing would not believe it if he killed him. Who is in charge of all this? The answer is actually very simple, Sun Sheng's excerpt is the earliest, and Prime Minister Sun Sheng has always been very close to Yan King Li Hongji, so Li Jing believes that this must be an action made by Yan King in order to suppress Yang Lian.

In fact, which dynasty and which generation, party disputes are sparse and commonplace, and there was a Niu Li party dispute in the Tang Dynasty, which caused chaos in the court, the people were not happy, and the majesty of the royal family dropped significantly, Li Jing naturally would not embark on this old road. However, the impeachment of Yang Lian by the imperial court was so numerous and heavy, and among the impeached courtiers, many of them were originally Li Jing's former ministers.

For example, Han Xizai, when Li Jing was still the prince, Han Xizai was the secretary, but he was in charge of the crown prince Donggong Wenhan, and he had a very good relationship with Li Jing. Both were erudite people, so they often talked about the world. However, Li Jing thinks that Han Xizai is a confidant, and thinks that he is loyal to him, but he will support King Yan.

Li Jing thought about it like this, and suddenly felt that these people had already shown signs of party strife when they took refuge in King Yan, and judging from the impeachment of Yang Lian this time, among so many people, excluding a small number of people, I am afraid that at least three-quarters of them are from King Yan's party! When did King Yan have such a big power?! He can contact so many ministers today to impeach Yang Lian, and I'm afraid he will contact these courtiers tomorrow to force the palace to seize power!

As a literati, Li Jing's thinking is sporadic, and he immediately thought of so much, and suddenly, he only felt that his back was full of sweat, King Yan, he is really his good son!

Li Jing had a gloomy face and paced in the imperial study. Originally, it was just a simple matter, but this matter made Li Jing feel that it was not simple, party struggle, forced palace, and seizure of power, these words appeared in his mind in turn, it seems that it is time to make rectifications, otherwise, I am afraid that this throne will not be able to sit steadily!

When Li Jing was thinking about it, Gao Ze came back, entered the house, saluted Li Jing, and said, "Your Majesty." ”

"Oh, it's Gao Ze, you're back." Li Jing said.

Li Jingsui arched his hand, knowing that the imperial brother and Gao Ze had something to say, so he said: "Imperial brother, the younger brother retires." ”

"No, this matter has something to do with you, you can listen to it." Li Jing said.

Since Li Jing said so, Li Jingsui stayed.

Li Jing smiled and said, "Gao Ze, why didn't you see Yang Lian, didn't he come back with you?" ”

"Your Majesty, the old slave went to pass on Yang Lian today, and when he arrived at his mansion, the next person said that he had been imprisoned in Dali Temple." Gao Ze said.

"In Dali Temple? What crime did he commit? Li Jing just asked this, and immediately reacted, thinking that there was a conflict with King Yan and was taken down by Dali Temple. As for how Dali Temple knows, it must be the result of King Yan's activities. This Yang Lian is really stupid, and he actually went to Dali Temple honestly.

Li Jing was a little dissatisfied, he asked Yang Lian to go home and think about it behind closed doors, but now he is locked up in Dali Temple, is his Chrysostom worthless? Could it be that King Yan's words are the most effective in Datang? Thinking of this, Li Jing snorted coldly, and his fists couldn't help clenching. (To be continued.) )
