Chapter Seventy-Six: Purse and Haning

Two days later, Yang Lian stood on the dock, looking at the busy crowd, bowing slightly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Son of Heaven has officially issued an order to seal Cha Wenhui as the envoy of Zhangwu Festival, and govern Fuzhou, Jianzhou, and Jianzhou.

The reason why Li Jun belonged to these three prefectures under the envoy of Zhangwu Jiedu was that he wanted to make full use of the manpower and material resources of these three prefectures, and Fuzhou was in ruins, which required the support of Jianzhou and Jianzhou. The Zhangwu Festival was established, and Cha Wenhui would set up the government in Fuzhou, so that the resources of the other two states would be inclined to Fuzhou, and Cha Wenhui was good at government affairs, and Fuzhou would inevitably recover quickly under his governance.

The Zhang brothers were also reused, burning Bao Xiurang, and the traitor Pan Sen gave them all the credit, and both of them were promoted to the commanders of the Zhangwu Army because of this credit. Considering that the two of them are still young, they are already quite officials, and there are still a lot of opportunities for promotion in the future.

As for Chen Xu, who came late, he was reappointed as the assassin of Fuzhou and assisted Cha Wenhui in handling the military and political affairs of Fuzhou.

As a result, the position of Jianzhou Assassin is vacant, and Li Jun is still thinking about who to succeed, but Li Jun's idea is to give priority to the appointment of Zhang's children, so that Fuzhou and Jianzhou are inseparable, and there is more hope of holding Fuzhou.

In fact, Li Jian thought about it a lot, Hu Qing was captured, Hu Jinsi was in a state of confusion, he withstood the pressure and planned to redeem his young son, but Yang Lian said that he didn't reply to him, and hung himself first. Li Jun adopted Yang Lian's suggestion and kept in touch with Wu Yueguo's two forces, but no one agreed, which made Wu Yueguo and his colleagues very depressed.

After Yang Lian returned to Jinling, several things were successfully completed, and his strength did not seem to have increased, but he had a certain connection with Cha Wenhui and the Zhang family in Pucheng, and had connections, which was the biggest victory.

Moreover, Yang Lian also got hundreds of shipwrights, and in the future, he built wharves, ships, and sailors in Yuzhou, which was a lot of wealth.

Yang Lian and the others carried everything onto the boat, and was about to get on the boat, when Gao Ze came on a fast horse and shouted Yang Lian's name repeatedly.

"Father-in-law Gao." Yang Lian walked up with a smile.

Gao Ze smiled, came to Yang Lian's side, and said in a low voice: "Yang Jiedu is about to return to Haichu Erzhou, Your Majesty ordered the old slave to send Yang Jiedu, and there are some things I want to say to Yang Jiedu." ”

Yang Lian listened, took a step back and was about to give a salute, but Gao Ze stopped him and said with a smile: "Yang Jiedu is such a big gift, the old slave doesn't dare." ”

Yang Lian straightened his waist and said, "Father-in-law Gao, please speak." ”

Gao Ze nodded and said in a low voice: "Yang Jiedu, this is Your Majesty's dictation, only you know." Seeing Yang Lian nodding, he said: "Your Majesty's meaning, if you have the opportunity to seize Shandong of the Han State and restore the Central Plains in the future, you can attack from both sides." ”

Yang Lian nodded, he had told Li Jun about this matter, and the old matter was brought up again at this moment, it must be different, and he was waiting for the following.

"Your Majesty also said that Yang Jiedu has been to the Han Kingdom, and he must know some people, if there is a chance, he will rebel against them and recover the Central Plains in the future, which will be much easier." Gao Ze said again.

Yang Lian hesitated a little and said, "What Your Majesty said, is this what happened?" ”

Gao Ze nodded affirmatively, and then said: "But the old slave has a few words in private that he wants to remind Yang Jiedu, and there are some things to think about." ”

Yang Lian was a little puzzled, Gao Ze pointed to the birds flying in the sky, and Yang Lian immediately understood.

"Thank you Gonggong Gao for reminding me, Yang Lian knows this matter in his heart." Yang Lian bowed his hand.

The two chatted for a while, and Gao Ze rode away on his horse. Yang Lian looked at his back from a distance, thoughtful. Gao Ze is a little greedy for money, but Gao Ze, who is greedy for money, is a good thing for Yang Lian, and he secretly passed on the news a few days ago, which is enough to prove his good impression of Yang Lian, although this is based on money. With Gao Ze's help, Yang Lian was able to get a lot of news in time.

Gao Ze's back disappeared, and Yang Lian was about to withdraw his gaze, when he found that not far from the dock, there was a figure dodging, as if he was peeping at something. Yang Lian frowned and walked up quickly.

The man saw Yang Lian coming, and kept retreating, but his steps were not as fast as Yang Lian's, and Yang Lian saw a somewhat frightened face.

The face was frightened at first, then calmed down, raised his head, his eyes were clear, and he looked at Yang Lian with a hint of a smile.

"Miss Zhou, why are you? It's not safe here. Yang Lian said that there are many people on the dock, and there are many people, including many rangers, and it is easy to have accidents.

"I—I heard you're leaving, so I'll see you off." Zhou Ehuang said.

Yang Lian laughed and said, "Thank you, Miss Zhou." ”

Emperor Zhou E pursed his lips, and suddenly became nervous again, a little cautious.

Yang Lian saw that her eyelashes were fluttering, like a butterfly flapping her wings, and her big and dark eyes were watery, like a pool of autumn water.

Emperor Zhou E hesitated for a moment, stood on tiptoe, looked at the ground, and said, "My father's words, please don't care about Yang Gongzi." He, his words, are not my thoughts. ”

"Miss Zhou, don't worry, I don't care, don't mind." Yang Lian said with a smile.

Emperor Zhou E's body shook slightly, and he suddenly mustered up his courage and asked, "Young Master Yang, can you promise me one thing?" ”

"Miss Zhou, please say, if I can do it, I will do my best." Yang Lian said, very serious.

Emperor Zhou E shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, but I hope that one day when I need Yang Gongzi's help, you can promise me." ”

Yang Lian smiled, pointed to the sun in the sky, and said, "It's not going to pick the sun." ”

Zhou Ehuang was amused by Yang Lian's seriousness, she shook her head, and said, "No, what I said must be something that Yang Gongzi can do." ”

"Okay, I promised." Yang Lian said, took out a pearl from his arms, handed it to Emperor Zhou E, and advised: "If you can't come in person, it's okay for someone to bring this pearl." ”

Zhou Ehuang took the pearl and looked at it carefully, there seemed to be a word engraved on the pearl, she carefully put away the pearl, suddenly took out a purse, handed it to Yang Lian, and said: "This purse is made by me, I hope to bring good luck to Yang Gongzi." ”

"Thank you, Miss Zhou." Yang Lian took the purse and found that the purse was extremely exquisitely made, with extremely tight stitches and threads, and it was obviously made with heart.

Emperor Zhou E saw Yang Lian accept the things, and left in a hurry, stumbling and almost falling.

Yang Lian said in a loud voice: "Slow down, be careful of falling." ”

Zhou Ehuang ran faster and soon disappeared from Yang Lian's sight.

Yang Lian shook his head, and as soon as he turned around, he saw where Fu Jinzhan was standing, with a smile on his pretty face.

"Let's go, Miss Fu." Yang Lian walked briskly while putting his purse into his arms.

Fu Jinzhan had already seen it, and couldn't help laughing: "Young Master Yang, you can't break her heart." ”

Yang Lian turned his head, glanced at Fu Jinzhan, shook his head, and said, "It's not what you think." ”

Fu Jinzhan pursed his lips and smiled and stopped talking, and as Yang Lian got on the boat one after another, the boatman saw that everyone was on board, pulled up the anchor, and walked slowly, heading towards the Yangtze River.

Fu Jinzhan was used to taking a boat at this time, and she was not as uncomfortable as when she took the boat for the first time, she stayed in the cabin for a while, and Yang Lian took care of things and came in.

The two chatted for a while, the sky began to get dark, Fu Jinzhan talked about Li Hongji, before leaving, although Li Jian locked him in the prison, he still did not punish him. Yang Lian doesn't care, after all, they are two fathers and sons, and it is unrealistic to ask Li Jun to kill Li Hongji, no matter what Li Jun does, Yang Lian doesn't care, he just needs to strengthen his strength. With absolute strength, you can not be afraid of anyone.

Just as Yang Lian was heading north, Li Jun finally breathed a sigh of relief. What happened a few days ago made him very angry, King Yan actually did such a thing, lost the royal face, and also made Li Jun very disappointed in him.

But after all, King Yan is his own son, even if there is a mistake, Li Jun is reluctant to do it, plus Queen Zhong comforts him from time to time, King Yan is still young, and it is inevitable that he will be impulsive in doing things, as long as he is strictly disciplined, he can still be good.

Not only did Empress Zhong comfort him, but Prime Minister Sun Sheng, Situ Zhouzong and other important ministers of the country also spoke several times to intercede for Li Hongji, the king of Yan.

Since Sun Sheng was not involved in this matter on the surface, Li Jun was quite moved by Sun Sheng's advances, but Yang Lian was in Jinling at the time, and Li Jun was not good at letting Li Hongji go openly, so he could only wait, Li Jun was also glad that Yang Lian was not entangled in this kind of thing, and with his departure, Li Jun decided to let King Yan go.

However, in order to teach King Yan some lessons, Li Jun personally rushed to the prison.

In the prison, although Li Hongji was in good spirits, his mentality changed after a long period of detention. Li Hongji is a person who wants to ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, how can he be willing to be mediocre? For him, if he can't be the prince of the Tang Dynasty in the city, what is the meaning of this life?

However, he also knew that his father had imprisoned him in the prison, and it was obvious that he had been disappointed in himself, and he had not even come to see him once! Are you going to live your life in prison? Li Hongji looked up at the rope that was secretly hanging on the door beam, this rope has been hanging for a long time, isn't there a chance to use it?

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the prison, Li Hongji pricked up his ears, and faintly heard the voice of "Your Majesty" coming, Li Hongji immediately stood up, pulled out the rope hidden in the door beam, and moved a soft pier, stood on it, observed the outside, and found that his father was not far from him, about more than 20 steps, Li Hongji sneered invisibly, quickly put his head into the sleeve, and then kicked the soft pier with both legs, making a posture of wanting to commit suicide!

The soft pier fell, making a noise, several jailers rushed over, and when they saw Li Hongji hanging on the door beam, everyone was taken aback, and the man, who was already about forty years old, opened his mouth wide and shouted in panic: "Oh no, King Yan hanged himself!" ”

When Li Jian heard this, his heart tightened, he quickened his pace, and when he arrived at the prison cell, he looked up and saw that King Yan was hanging from the door beam, and his body was struggling instinctively.

Li Xuan glanced at the panicked jailer and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you save people quickly?" ”

The jailers reacted, hurriedly opened the prison door, rushed in, hugged the body of Yan King Li Hongji, hugged him, and put him on the soft collapse.

Li Jun also walked in, looking at King Yan with a gloomy face, King Yan was lying on the soft collapse, suddenly coughed violently, half a sound, King Yan saw Li Jun, first surprised, and then pounced, hugged Li Jun's feet, and cried bitterly.

"Father, the son knows that he is wrong, and the son must change it." What Li Hongji said was very sincere.

Li Jun looked at his eldest son, hesitated for a moment, and said, "King Yan, you stand up and speak first." ”

"Yes, thank you, Father." Li Hongji said, stood up, his hands down, and looked very honest.

"Do you really know you're wrong?" Li Jun asked.

Li Hongji nodded and said, "Erchen knows his mistakes. ”

"Okay, tell me, what's wrong with you?" Li Jun asked, and asked the jailers to retreat, leaving only Gao Ze by his side.

Li Hongji pursed his lips, thought about it carefully, and then said: "Father, the son is jealous of the virtuous, because Yang Lian has taken the credit of Fuzhou, so it is not right to hold a grudge and design to harm him." ”

Li Jun snorted coldly and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Also, Erchen shouldn't have dug up that person's grave and let people steal his bones!" Li Hongji said again.

"You, you, you, really disappointed my father!" Li Yan hated that iron could not be made of steel, and said: "Then when Yang Lian first arrived in Jinling, I sent someone to check, this Yang Lian is from Guanzhong, not that person at all!" Do you really think that your father is an old fool and doesn't know how to tell? You're the only one in the world who is smart? ”

"Your heart is good, it is for the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, but you have done something wrong after all, Yang Lian has made a contribution this time, and I haven't had time to reward him, so you framed him as the person from the previous dynasty, don't say that I don't believe it, I'm afraid no one in the entire court will believe it!" If it was really him, how could he have made contributions to the Tang Dynasty several times, and was born and died several times! If you behave like this, it will make the courtiers of the court feel that all the courtiers who have military merits may be framed and may be beheaded at any time! If so, will this Datang still have good ministers to assist? Li said a long list of words to express his anger.

Li Hongji lowered his head in time and said softly: "What my father taught me is that my son is willing to accept the guilt. ”

"How are you going to receive sin? Can't I kill you? Li Xuan said angrily.

Li Hongji hurriedly knelt down and said, "Father, the son knows his mistakes, and he will be conscientious in the future, serve the Tang Dynasty, take Yang Jiedu as an example, open up territory for the Tang Dynasty, and complete the eternal hegemony of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"Humph!" Li Jun snorted coldly and paced in the prison cell, and after a full quarter of an hour, Li Jun stopped and said, "King Yan, from now on, you will stay in King Yan's mansion and read more poetry and books." ”

Li Hongji was slightly stunned, quickly knelt down, and said categorically: "Erchen remember the teachings of his father!" ”

"Okay, I hope you can do what you say!" As he spoke, Li Jun threw off his robe and walked away slowly.

Li Hongji, the king of Yan, hurriedly said: "The son of the minister sends his father to the emperor." It wasn't until Li Jun disappeared that Li Hongji slowly stood up, clenched his hands into fists, and his father let him study at home, which meant that Runzhou's military power was handed over to others. Most of the year's efforts have come to naught! But as long as the people are still there, everything is still possible!

Li Hongji thought about it and left the prison. (To be continued.) )
