Chapter 597: The palace is really haunted
Seeing that Yang Guang bowed his head and was speechless, Yang Jian continued to say to him: "In the past two days, I will issue an edict to appoint you and Ah Yi as the secretary of the Huainan Road and Shannan Dao respectively, according to the fact that you found out yesterday that the 'Wild Goose's Nest' killer Zhang Zhongjian has lurked to Yang Su's side, presumably Guan Zizai will also send people to lurk in Shouchun and Jiangling in the future, waiting for an opportunity to spy on the military situation, and interfere with and sabotage the imperial court's use of troops against Chen, so you must understand that I want you to preside over the continued investigation of Gao De's Shangshu case, in fact, it will be to eliminate Nan Chen' The task of the Goose's Nest's meticulous work has been handed over to you, and you must unveil the mystery of Guanzi in the shortest possible time, and wipe him and the 'Goose's Nest' in one fell swoop. If you can do this, you can be regarded as the first contribution to the defeat of Nan Chen. ”
Although Yang Guang had guessed his father's intention the day before yesterday, when he heard that his father had unmistakably entrusted him with the important task of clearing Guan Zizi, he still couldn't hold back the joy and excitement in his heart, and he took the order: "Please rest assured that my father will live up to my father's expectations, and vow to sweep away the 'Goose's Nest' and Guan Zizai, and clear the obstacles to the realization of the great cause of reunification between the north and the south." ”
At this point, Yang Guang raised his eyes and saw that Yang Jian finally had a smile on his face, and was about to say goodbye to the palace, but he heard Yang Jian sigh softly, and then started a family routine with him: "Er'er has moved into the palace last night?" For this matter, I also complained about your mother, a good young couple, who wanted to break them up. However, there is indeed some evil spirit in the palace recently, Er'er is known as a goddess, and it is good to ask her to accompany your mother in the palace temporarily, and to suppress the evil spirit in the palace. Ah Zong, you won't complain that I and your queen mother don't understand each other, do you? ”
"Erchen has no such intentions." Yang Guang blurted out.
He was secretly taken aback, thought about it, and asked Yang Jian: "When I heard my mother talk about the haunting in the palace in Zhengyang Palace the day before yesterday, my son mistakenly thought that it was caused by the summer heat, which caused people to be in a trance, and it may not be true. ”
"Regarding the ins and outs of this matter, you should go to Zhengyang Palace and ask your queen mother. I can only tell you that in recent days, only Er'er lived in Lanzhi Palace, and there has never been a strange phenomenon, so it is not entirely unreasonable for your mother to be anxious to move Er'er into the palace to live. Also, I recently plan to transfer Master Hui Lin, a monk supervisor from Hebei, to Chang'an Xingshan Temple to serve as the host, Master Hui Lin was originally a Taoist monk recruited by you, so I will inform you in advance today. ”
Yang Guang immediately guessed that his father and the emperor transferred Monk Lin from Bingzhou to Beijing to preside over Xingshan Temple at this moment, and it was very likely that it was also for the sake of this evil spirit in the palace, and saw that Yang Jian, as the honor of a country, was unwilling to tell him about these ghosts, so he agreed, took advantage of the situation to bid farewell to his father, went out of the Linde Palace, and went to Zhengyang Palace to find his mother Dugu Jialuo to inquire about the details.
When Yang Guang walked into the main hall of Zhengyang Palace, he saw that not only his princess Xiao E was sitting in the hall with her mother, but also on the seat on the right of her mother, there was a pale, haggard palace beauty, who was actually his sister-in-law, the crown princess Yuan.
Speaking of this crown princess Yuan, she is really a hard-working person. She was born in the Northern Wei royal family, was originally the daughter-in-law selected by Dugu Jialuo for his eldest son Yang Yong, since the opening of the Sui, she was canonized as the crown princess. But she doesn't know if she has received an overly orthodox education since she was a child, or she was born extremely indifferent to the affairs of men and women, and she has been married to Yang Yong for more than ten years, during which not only did she fail to give birth to a man and a half woman for Yang Yong, but now she has been robbed of the limelight by the Yun family in the East Palace, as if she has been beaten into the cold palace by her husband, if it were not for the queen's favor, maybe even the title of the crown princess was taken away by the Yun family.
After years of infertility and indifference by her husband, Yuan's depression became a disease, and he became a sick seedling at a young age, taking medicine all year round, but his body became weaker and weaker.
In the fifth year of the emperor's reign, the crown prince Yang Yong forced to death Shu Guogong Liu Yi because of torture, and was sent out of the eastern capital by Yang Jian again.
Recently, the Daxing Palace has been haunted, and I don't know if someone is secretly making it bad in the East Palace, or if it is really something, but it has also been haunted. Yuan's body was already weak, and he was frightened by the haunting in the palace, and his condition became more and more heavy.
It just so happened that Xiao E, who was rumored to be a goddess by the folk, returned to Chang'an with Yang Guang, and Dugu Jialuo ordered the Yuan family to be connected to Daxing Palace, wanting to use Xiao E's divine power to control the evil spirit of the town palace, and by the way, also cure the problem of infertility for the Yuan family.
Yang Guangyin saw that the crown princess Yuan was also sitting on the side, and it was inconvenient to ask about the haunting in the palace in front of her, so after greeting the queen mother and sister-in-law respectively, he sat side by side with Xiao E, and only pulled some homely things with his mother at will to relieve boredom, and was not in a hurry to ask about the haunting in the palace.
"Ah Zong, when I was taken into the palace by the queen mother today, I passed by the door of the Qinghe County Mansion by car, and saw that his house was lit up with lights, as if he was doing a happy event, and I ordered someone to inquire before I found out, it turned out to be for the Qing guests in the mansion to marry Xiao Xiao, a face-facing maid in the Jin Palace, I don't know if there is such a thing?" When Yang Guang and Dugu Jialuo's mother and son were pulling at home, Yuan and Xiao E had been listening silently, and suddenly asked Yang Guang at this time.
"What's the matter, Xiao Xiao married into Yang Sufu? Ah Zong, when was this hired, and when was it decided, why have I never heard you talk about it? Dugu Jialuo was taken aback when he heard the news of Xiao Xiao's marriage, and glared at Yang Guang and asked.
Yang Guang hesitated for a while, and the princess Xiao E, who was sitting next to him, replied with a smile on his behalf: "I'm afraid the queen mother doesn't know yet, Xiao Xiao and Xie Wei on the Qinghe Mansion have long been eye-catching, and they have been in each other's homes for many years. Yesterday, it was too late when the concubine entered the palace, and he didn't have time to explain the matter to the queen mother. ”
"Ah Zong, is this really the case? It's not that something happened to Xiao Xiao, you are in a hurry to send her to marry, right? Dugu Jialuo didn't believe the explanation made by his daughter-in-law, his eyes wandered back and forth between Yang Guang and Xiao E, and finally stared at Yang Guang and asked.
