Chapter 110: Grievances Never Exist
In the gorgeous and spacious carriage, Li Jing was sitting cross-legged, he was very angry about today's events, and the royal face was lost at this moment. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the same, he is also very puzzled, Yan Wang is the person who went to pick it up in person, could it be that something happened halfway? Everyone says that Emperor Zhou E is not only beautiful, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but where can the woman I see today be related to beauty? Looking at the woman's crazy appearance, she is obviously a mental illness.
The spacious carriage was enough to accommodate several people, Li Jingsui walked into the carriage first, followed by Yang Lian, Gao Ze was in the end, he deliberately hidden, but there was an extra piece of cloth on his head, and blood stains could be faintly seen, Li Jing was even more strange.
"Gao Ze, what are you?" Li Jing was a little puzzled, Gao Ze just went for a while, how could it be like this?
"Your Majesty, it was the old slave who accidentally fell down for a while." Gao Ze replied.
Li Jing waved his hand and said, "Gao Ze, you are injured, go see the doctor first." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gao Ze bowed and retreated.
Gao Ze's matter Li Jing first threw it aside and asked, "King Qi, Marquis Wu, today's matter is too strange." ”
"It's really too strange, I heard that King Yan is a woman from the Zhou family who went to greet her in person, and I haven't heard of anything happening on the road, why did this bride change? Could it be that King Yan has taken a fancy to this woman? Yang Lian said strangely.
Li Jing didn't rush to speak, but looked at Yang Lian, hoping to see the clues from Yang Lian's every move. Like Li Hongji, Li Jing thought of it at the first time, and it was very likely that Yang Lian did this matter, because Yang Lian sabotaged his marriage and sent someone to assassinate him. There is no evidence for these things, but if you use your brain, you can see at a glance who did it. What everyone lacks is just evidence.
Li Jingsui saw the doubts of the Son of Heaven and said, "Brother Huang, Marquis Wu has been discussing state affairs in the palace of his younger brother today. Li Jingsui said it implicitly, which indirectly shows that Yang Lian has nothing to do with this matter.
Li Jing was silent for a while, nodded, and said, "This matter is too strange, Wu Hou, this matter is handed over to you to investigate, and you must find out the truth." ”
Yang Lian shook his head, arched his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, among the ministers, it is better for Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate this matter." ”
Li Jing originally had his plans, but he hesitated a little when he heard this, Li Jing originally wanted to put some pressure on Yang Lian, if it was him, he would always find a substitute for the ghost, of course, if it wasn't him, it would be the best.
Yang Lian continued: "Your Majesty, in Jinling City, everyone knows that Weichen and King Yan have a bad relationship, if this matter is in charge of Weichen, some things will inevitably implicate King Yan, if King Yan thinks that Weichen wants to declare personal vendettas, it will cause King Yan's dissatisfaction and exacerbate the contradictions between them." ”
When Li Jing heard this, he felt that it was really such a reason, and today's performance of King Yan also showed that he was very dissatisfied with Yang Lian and once provoked.
"Weichen thinks that Xiao Yan, the secretary of Dali Temple, has a reputation for being upright, he is not afraid of offending people, and he is the best person to deal with this matter." Yang Lian said again.
Li Jing couldn't help but nod when he heard this, he knew that Yang Lian still had a word to say, that is, Xiao Yan did not participate in the party struggle, and he was indeed the best candidate for this matter. Li Jing made a decision in his heart, so he relieved a heart disease, and immediately ordered to go down and let Xiao Yan, the secretary of Dali Temple, enter the palace.
After dealing with this matter, Li Jing turned to care about Gao Ze's injury, Gao Ze went to call the two of them, why did he hurt his head? Gao Ze didn't say anything, Li Jing could only ask the two of them.
Under Li Jing's constant questioning, Yang Lian was "forced to reluctantly" tell what happened. Yang Lian didn't add oil and vinegar, because he knew that the Son of Heaven would definitely send someone to investigate after knowing about this matter, so he just told what had happened without any emotional color.
Li Jing listened, and didn't say anything, but asked the two of them to step back, he needed to rest, there were too many things today and too messy, which made him uneasy. Li Jing was half-leaning on the soft couch, and Queen Zhong hammered her waist for him, and before she knew it, Li Jing fell asleep.
After Li Hongji got rid of the woman, he took more than a dozen people with his family and went straight to Situ's mansion, at this time the sky had darkened, and the curfew was about to begin, and the soldiers on patrol saw such a group of cavalry rushing over violently, and they were all waving the banner of Yanwangfu, and no one dared to stop them.
At this time, Zhou Zong was sighing in the courtyard, and the little daughter beside him was surrounding him, constantly asking, "What about my sister, what about my sister?" ”
Zhou Zong sighed, picked up his little daughter, Emperor E was forced to marry King Yan, the Zhou family may not be able to live in peace in the future, perhaps, it is a good choice to return to the hometown, at least there can be no rights in hand, for the safety of the whole family, Zhou Zong believes that it is enough to be a rich man and live this life ordinarily.
When Zhou Zong was thinking, the housekeeper hurriedly ran over and said, "Master, something is wrong." ”
"What's wrong, so frizzy, what's the system?" Zhou Zong was already in a bad mood, and when he heard the words, he shouted angrily, and the little daughter Zhou Ying who was holding him was suddenly frightened, and cried wow, her father was terrible.
The butler came to his side, gasped, and said, "Old, master, King Yan has brought someone to kill him." ”
"Yan, Yan Wang?" Zhou Zong couldn't help but stammer, at this time, King Yan was not at the wedding, what were you doing here?
Before he could understand, Li Hongji had already broken in with someone, and when he arrived in front of Zhou Zong, Li Hongji shouted: "Zhou Situ, you dare to deceive Gu? ”
Zhou Zong calmed down at this time and asked, "King Yan, where does this start?" ”
"Where to start? Zhou Situ, it was not your daughter who gave you the sedan chair. Li Hongji shouted, his voice was extremely sad and indignant, and when he thought of that woman, Li Hongji even got goosebumps.
Zhou Zong opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "King Yan, where did you start with this?" Emperor E was picked up by you in person, and you also saw it with your own eyes, who is not Emperor E? ”
Li Hongji shouted: "It's not Emperor E in the sedan chair, you must be hiding." Saying that, Li Hongji called his soldiers loudly and asked them to search Zhou Situ's mansion and see where Emperor Zhou E was hiding?
Li Hongji didn't bring many people, and in order to prevent Emperor Zhou E from hiding everywhere, he sent someone to call Xiao Yan, the secretary of Dali Temple. Xiao Yan came with hundreds of servants and put Zhou Situ's mansion in a water.
"Xiao Siqing, what do you mean by this?" Zhou Zong didn't dare to provoke King Yan, but he didn't have a good face for Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan glanced at Li Hongji, coughed, and said: "Zhou Situ, the person who King Yan married today is indeed not Emperor E, there are many strange things in it, Emperor E is a person from the Zhou Mansion, so naturally he has to start from the source." ”
"Hmph, Emperor E has obviously been taken away, so aren't you afraid that Ben Situ will sue in front of His Majesty?" Although Zhou Zong's temper was not bad, the mud bodhisattva also had a bit of a temper, and he immediately became angry.
Xiao Yan said: "Zhou Situ is angry, if I have asked me to investigate this matter thoroughly today, all the people involved in the case will be questioned by this official." Zhou Situ, please forgive the official for being rude. ”
Zhou Zong said angrily: "You dare? ”
"The lower official is rude, just by the order of the Son of Heaven, the lower official has to do this, if this matter really has nothing to do with Zhou Situ, afterwards Zhou Situ went to His Majesty to sue the royal court!" Xiao Yan said politely, but he didn't back down at all.
Zhou Zong's body was constantly trembling, what was going on?
However, Zhou Situ was finally an important minister of the Tang Dynasty, and he was highly respected, and Xiao Yan did not dare to be too presumptuous, so he first sent troops to Situ's mansion to search and found that Emperor Zhou E was not among them.
Li Hongji received the news and said: "This is natural, something like this happened, how could Emperor Zhou E still be in the Zhou Mansion, nine times out of ten he has been sent out." ”
Xiao Yan patted his head and said, "King Yan rest assured, now that there is a curfew, no one is allowed to enter." Tomorrow, Weichen will post a notice to arrest Emperor Zhou E, and be sure to give King Yan an explanation. ”
Hearing that his daughter had become a prisoner, Zhou Zongqi's body trembled, but he was helpless.
Although Li Hongji did not find the person he wanted in Zhou Situ's mansion, he did not give up, he thought that Emperor Zhou E must have been hidden, so he sent someone to secretly monitor Zhou Situ's mansion. At the same time, in an extreme distrust of Yang Lian, he also sent people to monitor the Yang Mansion.
When Yang Lian returned to the mansion, it was already dark, and he didn't know anything about Li Hongji's going to Zhou Zong's mansion. Entering the Yang Mansion, Yang Lian found that his stomach was growling, and he went to the Yanwang Mansion to work for a while, and he didn't eat a bite of the meal, let alone the wine.
Fu Jinzhan walked over worriedly, frowned, and asked, "Young Master Yang, how are things going today?" ”
"This matter has been done, however, we must not reveal the slightest rumor, now the Yanwang Mansion has become a mess, Li Hongji will definitely send someone to spy on us secretly, everything must be careful." Yang Lian said.
Although Fu Jinzhan did not see Emperor Zhou E, out of trust in Yang Lian, he still chose to believe it.
Yang Lian returned to the house and was about to rest, when Mi Shiwei knocked on the window.
"Come in." Yang Lian said that he knew who it was, and the unique way of knocking on the window was only this person.
Mi Shiwei came in, saw Yang Lian with a smile on her face, and said, "The matter is finally done." ”
"If Miss Mi comes out, I am naturally relieved." Yang Lian said.
Mi Shiwei smiled and said, "Actually, today's luck is not very good, Li Hongji is very strict, and there is almost no way to start." ”
"But in the end, you still succeeded, Miss Mi, where did you do it?" Yang Lian asked.
Mi Shiwei shook her head and didn't answer, but asked instead: "On the way here, I heard that Li Hongji led his troops to Zhou Situ's mansion, and I thought I was here to ask for someone. ”
"Li Hongji asked himself about the careful planning, but he was still exploited, frankly speaking, I now have doubts about the true strength of Miss Zeng and Miss Mi, how many things are there, I don't know?" Yang Lian asked, he naturally knew the original plan, but he didn't get the news afterwards, which was enough to prove that Zeng Yiling did not act according to Yang Lian's plan. Or that the plan can't catch up with the changes, so in desperation, Zeng Yiling gave up the original plan, so what did she do later?
Mi Shiwei smiled but did not answer, looking mysterious. Yang Lian didn't ask much, there are some things, the more you know, the easier it is to be exposed. Anyway, he has alibi evidence, and logically speaking, Li Hongji will not be able to grasp his handle.
In fact, Yang Lian cares more about Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan is a person, Yang Lian can't see through, under Xiao Yan's upright appearance, there must be some secrets, does he really want to take refuge in King Qi or himself? So what is his purpose? There is a reason for hating a person, and there is also a reason for taking refuge in a person, men, not for women, but for power, for money.
Xiao Yan's life Yang Lian knows a little, knows that his wife is average, but he doesn't have a concubine, so the woman can be ruled out. Right? Perhaps, Dali Siqing is in charge of important affairs in Gyeonggi, and although his status is not low, there is still a gap compared to official positions such as Situ and Prime Minister. As for money, he has always disliked the luxury of the Son of Heaven, and among the many ministers, Xiao Yan's family is relatively poor. With such an analysis, it seems that Xiao Yan is for the sake of rights.
This time, Yang Lian recommended Xiao Yan to solve the case, just to test him, which is also why Yang Lian is very confident in this action, and feels that Xiao Yan will not be able to catch the handle.
Although Mi Shiwei did not say anything specific, she repeatedly assured that there was absolutely no handle left in this matter. This made Yang Lian feel a little at ease. Later, Yang Lian got more detailed information, Xiao Yan took people to Zhou Situ's mansion, thinking that Zhou Zong wanted people, but Zhou Zong naturally couldn't get people.
Although Xiao Yan did not arrest Zhou Zong and return to Dali Temple, around the Zhou Mansion, there were many secret agents of Dali Temple who were investigating the news.
Not long after Yang Lian had dinner, Zeng Yiling came and told Yang Lian that Emperor Zhou E had hidden her.
Yang Lian pondered for a moment, knowing that this matter was very big, after all, this matter was related to the face of the royal family, Li Hongji refused to give up, and Li Jing would definitely not give up. So tomorrow, I am afraid that the entire Jinling will be under martial law, even if it is not martial law, secretly, I don't know how many people are secretly watching, so Emperor Zhou E still has to be hidden, and it is very secretive.
Yang Lian chatted with Zeng Yiling for a while, Zeng Yiling suddenly laughed and said, "Now it seems that this Li Hongji really hates Yang Gongzi to the core." ”
"What do you say?" Yang Lian asked.
"Come and see." Zeng Yiling smiled and drilled a hole in the window.
Yang Lian walked over to take a look, only to see a figure not far away moving gently on the roof, this person's speed was extremely fast, moving on the roof like flat ground, obviously this is not an ordinary person. Yang Lian didn't need to guess much, he could be sure that this person was someone under Li Hongji's account, and the reason for his coming was already obvious.
"This man, do you want to teach him a lesson?" Zeng Yiling asked, although there are no secrets in the Yang Mansion, it is not a good thing to let Li Hongji's spies come and go freely.
"Don't worry, Li Hongji wants to see it, let him see enough." Yang Lian laughed. The grievances with Li Hongji will have to make a decision sooner or later, and now it seems that this point in time is not far away. Li Hongji has lost such a big face, it is impossible for him to give up.
