Chapter 780: See the Old Man Again
Dugu Tuo dragged Yang Guang into the duty room of the prison, but blocked Guo Yan, who was escorting Yang Guangtong, from the door, closed the door, pretended to smile mysteriously at Yang Guang, and asked: "You obediently told your uncle that when you return to Beijing this time, do you want to move there to live?" As he spoke, he pointed east with his hand.
In Yang Guang's impression, it seems that he has not had any dealings with this uncle since he crossed over, and seeing that he spoke to him in such an intimate tone, he thought to himself: Maybe before he crossed over, Dugutuo and that Yang Guang were very familiar. Then he deliberately pretended not to understand his words, shook his head, and replied: "When I entered the palace yesterday to meet my father, the emperor and the queen mother, I never heard that a new mansion was going to be given to me, where did my uncle hear the news?" ”
Dugu Tuo saw that Yang Guang was serious, not like he was joking with him, and knew that the latest news he got yesterday was true: Look at this, Yang Yong will indeed not be abolished for a while. So while casually finding an excuse to perfunctory Yang Guang, he changed his mind and asked Yang Guang with a smile: "Uncle feels sorry for your young age, so he was sent to Jiangnan to take care of the old land of Suinan for the imperial court, and he intends to make a Dazhou assassin under you or something, and he can help you at any time, right?" Hurry up and tell the emperor to go, okay? ”
Yang Guang has always dealt with Dugu Tuoshao, and for a while he couldn't figure out why he begged him to be transferred to Jiangnan, so he replied with a smile: "Where is my uncle going to be transferred, enter the palace and tell the queen mother, isn't it something that can be done in three or two days?" What's the need to talk to me? Moreover, the current situation in Jiangnan is still unstable, that is, even the king servant was assassinated, where can my uncle do the assassination, so what do you have to do in Jiangnan? ”
Dugutuo still heard the news of Wang Shao's assassination in Jiankang for the first time, his two eyes widened, and when he looked at Yang Guangduo, he smiled and said: "What Ah Zong said is that when I saw my sister when I went back, I should talk to her face to face." Was Wang Shao really assassinated? Who is the assassin and have you caught it? ”
When Yang Guang heard the tone of his words, he already guessed that his uncle was a mediocre man who only wanted to be stable and did not seek to make contributions to the court, so he deliberately scared him and said: "This is also the same uncle you said, it is said that the assassin who assassinated the king's servant is Xiao Rushui, the great protector of the 'Goose's Nest', and I have transferred the white-haired Liang Mo to the south to arrest him." ”
Dugu Tuo immediately gave Yang Guang a thumbs up, praised Liang Mo and said: "Ah Zong, you really know how to use people, if you want to say that your martial arts are strong and you can fight Xiao Rushui, I'm afraid only Liang Mo is the only one." ”
The two of them were talking lively, and a sergeant who had relieved Xian Huaer came to report that Xian Huaer had been escorted outside the door.
When Dugutuo heard the news, he hurriedly got up and gave Yang Guang a place, and kindly persuaded Yang Guang to interrogate Xian Hua'er in the warm duty room, so as not to freeze in the cold torture room.
Since the early years of the emperor's investigation of the case of the stone house courtyard, Yang Guang and Xian Hua'er have not seen each other for ten years, and when they saw Xian Hua'er outside the prison guard room today, Yang Guang couldn't help but feel a sinking in his heart: Is the old woman standing in front of him with pale temples and a wrinkled face the beautiful young woman who was graceful ten years ago?
In Yang Guang's impression, Xian Huaer is only less than ten years older than herself, and now she is in her prime, it seems that in the course of her ten-year prison career, she has indeed been tortured physically and mentally, and she has declined before she is old.
"It's cold outside, let's go inside and talk." Yang Guang saw that Xian Hua'er was thinly dressed, and was escorted by two sergeants to stand in the cold wind, and couldn't help but fight the cold war, so he invited her into the duty room to talk, and instructed Guo Yan to find a cotton robe for her to change into.
Although Xian Hua'er was tortured and became old, she had a good memory, she glanced up, and recognized Yang Guang, silently followed Yang Guang into the duty room, and took the lead in asking: "Ten years later, I am fortunate to meet His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I don't know if you want to kill me this time, or do you want to get something from me?" ”
"If I say that I want to let you go back to Lingbiao to reunite with your family, do you believe it or not?" Because the first condition that Mrs. Xian put forward to Li Che was to release her granddaughter Xian Hua'er to return to Lingbiao, Yang Guang didn't want to hide his intentions from Xian Hua today, so he asked her straight to the point.
Xian Hua'er raised her head and quickly glanced at Yang Guang, lowered her head again, and said with a sneer: "His Royal Highness the dignified King of Jin personally came to release me back to Lingbiao?" I don't believe it. ”
"According to your sins, ten years ago, you should have been beheaded, and you should have been kept alive to this day, do you know why? I'm afraid you can't think of it, ten years ago, it was my father who learned that you were a descendant of the Xian family, so he was extra kind and spared your life, and today, the court is recruiting the barbarians of the Lingbiao, at the request of Mrs. Xian, and wants to release you back to the Lingbiao, what the king said is true, this time you should always believe it. In order to gain Xian Huaer's trust in him as soon as possible, Yang Guang told her everything without reservation.
"You really didn't let me out to use me to arrest the Great Bodhisattva?" Perhaps it was Yang Guang's words that touched Xian Hua'er, she raised her head again, stared at Yang Guang and asked.
"I've been locked up in a prison for ten years, and you don't know anything about what's going on outside." Yang Guang replied lightly, "The great bodhisattva you mentioned is long gone, in other words, you, the little minion of the 'Wild Goose's Nest', have long lost any use to the imperial court in the matter of arresting Guan Zizai." ”
"What do you say? The Great Bodhisattva is dead? This is impossible. I think about how much effort I spent from Yecheng to Chang'an to find out who the Great Bodhisattva was in Chang'an, but I didn't even get any clues, how did you find him and kill him? ”
"Hmph, what kind of character do you think you are in 'Goose's Nest'? Is it the master of the stone house who is directly under the command of Guan Zizi, or is it some other important role. What I'm going to tell you today is that I know a lot more about the people and things in the Goose's Nest than you do. Don't say anything else, sleeve red, remember, she is Guan Zizai arranged by your side, your direct boss in the 'Goose's Nest'. Yang Guang mercilessly smashed the wishful thinking in Xian Huaer's heart.
Xian Hua'er heard that the prostitute who had been instructed by her ten years ago was actually her top boss, so she opened her mouth in shock, looked at Yang Guang, and asked for a while: "Then, you tell me, Guan Zi is a man or a woman, old or young, a monk or a layman, I have been imprisoned in this dark prison for ten years for him, and I have the right to know who he is?" ”
