Yang Guang was already disgruntled when his eldest brother Yang Yong almost forced himself to agree to escort Xiao Rushui to the East Palace for interrogation, and now he heard that Yang Yong was going to hand over the trial to Tang Lingze, the prince's left concubine, he couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up, so he asked Yang Yong to go with him to interrogate Xiao Rushui in person.

Yang Yong seemed to have expected Yang Guang's reaction, and before he could speak, he beckoned to the outside of the hall, and a team of handmaidens with a curly figure walked into the hall, and a few people who walked in front walked straight to Yang Guang, and with a smile, they led him to a few cases on the side of the hall and sat down.

Yang Yong saw that the maids had set up chessboards, chess pieces, melons and fruits on several cases, so he also smiled and came to sit down opposite Yang Guang, and said to the maids: "Today, the palace talks with the king of Jin, if you predict the winner of the king of Jin, you will all stand on the side of the king of Jin, if you predict the winner of the palace, then stand on my side, whoever guesses will each be rewarded with a fine silk, but if the king of Jin is let go halfway, everyone must be punished, do you hear?" ”

The maids had already received the order, and before Tang Lingze's interrogation of Xiao Rushui had a result, Yang Guang could not be let out of the Yichun Palace, and when he heard Yang Yong give the reward, Ying Geyan agreed in a whisper, and eight out of ten people chose to stand behind Yang Guang, and the group surrounded him.

Surrounded by a group of flower-like maids, facing the smiling face of his eldest brother Yang Yong, Yang Guang was so angry that he couldn't walk, so he had to look at Li Jing and Guo Yan, who were standing far away in the hall, and snorted outside the hall. The two understood, and while Yang Yong was not paying attention, they quietly walked out of the Yichun Palace.

Yang Guang didn't have the heart to play against Yang Yong seriously, his subordinates missed moves, faint moves frequently, the strange thing is that Yang Yong seemed to be absent-minded, and his faint moves were bigger than Yang Guang, and half an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and Yang Guang actually won two games in a row.

Just as the maids who were gathered around Yang Guang were smiling and only waiting for Yang Guang to win the next game and then go to Yang Yong to ask for a reward, Yang Guang suddenly heard a low voice behind him and said: "Lord Wang, Yuen Long opened his mouth to admit that he was the 'Goose's Nest' Great Protector Xiao Rushui, and he was willing to confess only if he wanted to see you by name......

Yang Guang turned his head to take a look, and saw that Li Jing had blended into the maid and came behind him at some point, so he put the chess pieces in his hand and said to Yang Yong: "Big brother, Yuen Long has already admitted that he is Xiao Rushui himself, please go and interrogate him with the younger brother." ”

Yang Yong glared at Li Jing, and said with a haha: "Ah Zong, don't worry, Xiao Rushui can't run away from the East Palace, and it's not too late for us to try him after this game." ”

As soon as Li Jing heard this, he was anxious in his heart, and he didn't care about Yang Yong's dead eyes and stared at him, and said in Yang Guang's ear: "Tang Lingze didn't ask a few words to punish Xiao Rushui, and the last general saw that Xiao Rushui confessed in order to protect himself, if the prince went late, the last general was worried that Tang Lingze would hack him......"

When Yang Guang heard this, his face changed greatly, he stood up with a "pout", stretched out his hand to push away the maids around him, and said to Li Jing: "Lead the way in front of the head." He strode out of the hall.

"Quick, stop King Jin." Yang Yong hurriedly shouted outside the hall.

Yang Guangwan didn't expect that the eldest brother would kill people, and secretly instructed Tang Lingze to use torture to extract a confession to hack Xiao Rushui, and in a fit of anger, he asked Li Jing for a long sword, held the sword in his hand, and broke out of the Yichun Hall with an angry face.

The guards of the East Palace who were on duty outside the Yichun Hall heard that the prince had ordered the King of Jin to be stopped in the palace, and they all stepped forward to stop Yang Guang, but Yang Guang cut down one person with a sword in his hand, and the others were frightened and hurriedly made a way, Yang Guang followed Li Jing closely, and ran towards the duty room where Tang Ling interrogated Xiao Rushui.

Tang Ling is worthy of being the number one strategist beside Yang Yong, and after receiving Yang Yong's order for him to interrogate Yuen Long's envoy, he immediately guessed Yang Yong's true thoughts: he must not let Yuen Long walk out of the East Palace alive, therefore, he did not ask two sentences as Li Jing reported to Yang Guang, and when he saw that Yuen Long refused to speak, he wanted to order his subordinates to execute him, but who knew that Yuen Long seemed to have noticed Tang Lingze's bad intentions, and spoke without waiting for the execution: "I am Xiao Rushui, Mei Er who I instructed someone to kill, and I also instructed Gu Sheng to pretend to be Liu Jushi to rebel." I have to meet His Royal Highness King Jin before I can tell you the details. ”

Now that the suspect has confessed, there is no reason to torture him to extract a confession. Although Tang Lingze understood in his heart that this was Xiao Rushui's delaying tactic to protect himself by sensing his intentions, he did not come up with a way to deal with Xiao Rushui for a while. Just when he was still hesitating, Li Jing, who came to hear the trial on the order of Yang Guang, also saw that Tang Lingze wanted to use torture to hack Xiao Rushui, and hurriedly returned to Yichun Hall to report to Yang Guang.

When Yang Guang followed Li Jing and hurriedly ran to the duty room, Guo Yan greeted him and reported to him anxiously: "Tang Ling has started to torture Xiao Rushui again, Lord Wang, you can't leave Xiao Rushui in the East Palace." ”

Yang Guang said nothing with a calm face, stepped forward and kicked open the door, and broke into the duty room with a long sword in his hand, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Rushui tied his hands and feet and was pressed down on the bench by two big men in shape, and another big man was holding a big board to torture him.

"Li Jing, Guo Yan, take Xiao Rushui with you, leave the East Palace with this king, and enter the palace to see your father." Yang Guang hurriedly stepped forward, forced the big man who was punishing Xiao Rushui with his sword, and turned around and ordered at the two guards.

"Prince, the prince is ......" Tang Ling stepped forward to stop him at first glance, but Yang Guang backhanded him with a long sword between his neck, and shouted: "Don't give way again, don't blame this king for being ruthless under the sword." Bluffing Tang Ling trembled and hurriedly retreated to the side.

Li Jing and Guo Yan stepped forward and pulled Xiao Rushui from the bench, held him in the middle from the left and the right, and followed Yang Guang out.

As soon as he walked out of the duty room, he was confronted by Yang Yong, the crown prince who was chasing after him with a large group of guards in the East Palace, Yang Guang didn't wait for Yang Yong to speak, and shouted at him loudly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this king has been ordered to investigate the case of Gu Sheng's rebellion, and now the first culprit in this case, Xiao Rushui, has been arrested. ”

Yang Yong was explained by Yang Guang in front of the guards of the East Palace, and seemed to be a little overwhelmed, opened his mouth, but he didn't have the courage to order someone to stop Yang Guang and the others, and watched Yang Guang and the others escort Xiao Rushui over in front of him......

Yang Guang and the two guards escorted Xiao Rushui out of the East Palace, and without the slightest hesitation, they walked straight towards the main gate of Daxing Palace. When he came to the palace gate, Yang Guang explained to the forbidden army general Zuo who guarded the palace gate that he had an urgent matter to enter the palace to face the king, but the forbidden army general Zuo replied: "Lord, the emperor has gone to the prison with Niangniang an hour ago, and he is not in the palace. ”
