On the night when Yang Lihua warned Yang Guang to do and cherish it, in the Zhengyang Palace, Emperor Yang Jian also said the same thing to Empress Dugu Jialuo.

Things are not exactly the same as Yang Lihua expected, Dugu Jialuo only keenly realized that his eldest son Yang Yong was likely to be the real mastermind behind this murder after hearing the news of Xinyan's murder to her in person today.

Since Yang Yong sent Xinyi to Wanshanni Temple at the same time to monitor the hundreds of noblewomen of the former dynasty in the temple, Dugu Jialuo found that his eldest son was already planning what would happen after he ascended to the throne in the future. Regarding the matter of colluding with the profiteer Pang Xun to pervert the law for bribes, Dugu Jialuo has more or less heard Xinyan mention it a few times in recent years.

However, considering that Yang Yong, as the son of himself and Yang Jian, is much older than Yang Guang, Yang Jun and other brothers, and is usually quite generous, and at the same time, thinking that there are many subordinates and servants in the East Palace, Yang Yong may not have a lot of money on hand, and it is not a big deal to find some other ways to subsidize the family behind his back and his husband, Dugu Jialuo has always had a laissez-faire attitude towards Yang Yong's actions.

But this time, there was a fatality, and he was killed, and anyone who knew could think that Yang Yong might be killing people, so Dugu Jialuo was also a little breathless.

As the daughter of Dugu Xin, a former courtier, Dugu Jialuo has read poetry and books since childhood, and knows that every time the prince commits a major mistake, it is very likely to trigger fierce infighting among the princes, and the brothers kill each other for the position of the prince, which will lead to turmoil in the court.

And Dugu Jialuo is most proud of the fact that the five brothers Yang Yong and Yang Guang are all siblings born to the same mother, and they think that this can avoid the occurrence of fratricidal situations in previous dynasties.

Even so, when faced with the fact that the crown prince Yang Yong actually made such a stupid and fatal mistake, Dugu Jialuo couldn't help but urgently summon Yang Guang, the second son who was most likely to replace Yang Yong, into the palace at the first time, and admonished him in person not to be delusional and seek to seize Yang Yong's position in the East Palace.

Although he received Yang Guang's face-to-face promise that he would not compete with Yang Yong for the position of prince, Dugu Jialuo still felt relieved, so when Yang Jian returned to Zhengyang Palace to sleep that night, he asked his husband about it in person, wanting to find out his husband's true intentions.

"A few years ago, I was really worried, seeing that Di Fa was too generous and weak, I was afraid that it would be difficult to become a generation of commanders, but today's incident made me look at him with admiration." Much to Dugu Jialuo's surprise, Yang Jian actually smiled and praised Yang Yong's behavior of instigating people to kill people and kill people.

"The concubine was a little confused by the emperor: Seeing that Di Fa is the prince of a country, and doing such an unsightly thing today, no matter how inconvenient it is, it is inconvenient to show it publicly. Why did the emperor praise him? Could it be that the emperor intends to end the case? Dugu Jialuo was unusual, and asked incomprehensibly while helping Yang Jian change his clothes with his own hands.

"Seriously speaking, seeing that Di Fa acted like this, more than half of them were forced by me to come here, and I can't blame him entirely." Yang Jian changed into a silk nightgown under the service of his beloved wife, pulled Dugu Jialuo to sit on the bed, and explained to her, "If it weren't for the fact that Ah Zong handed over the case of Pang Xun to be investigated by the presiding officer of Jiandi Var, and insisted on severely punishing the hussar battalion general under Ah Zong, he would not have been at a loss for what to do in order to protect himself, instigating people to kill people and find someone to be the substitute for the dead ghost." ”

"What does the emperor mean is that what he has done has long been in the emperor's sight and control?" Dugu Jialuo asked in surprise.

"Not necessarily. I also received a report from Su Wei a few days ago, saying that a prisoner had escaped from prison in Jingzhao Yamen, and I only learned about it after asking him in person. Since the imperial court was about to raise troops to attack Chen, and seeing that the land was quite the commander of Chen, I wanted to take this opportunity to personally give him a problem, to take the school examination and test his ability to respond to situations and make decisions in case of problems, and see if he had the ability to be a general. Then it was decided which emperor would be the commander of the entire army of Van Chen. Yang Jian replied proudly with three points.

Dugu Jialuo couldn't imagine that her husband would explain this matter like this, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

After touching about half a pillar of incense, Dugu Jialuo came back to his senses and asked tentatively: "In this way, the emperor has already decided to appoint Jiandi to be the commander of Hua Chen?" ”

Yang Jian stood up, paced in the hall with his hands behind his back, and replied, "In my opinion, those who serve as the commander of the Chen Dynasty need to be responsible first, and then decisive in killing. Seeing that if he can calmly tell me the truth after seeing through the temptation of his mind, even if he has committed a major mistake first, I think it is far better than now. Therefore, I will have to wait and see. ”

Dugu Jia Luoluo let go of his heart a little, and said to her husband: "No matter what the cause is, the concubine thinks that as the prince of a country, what she has done today is unconvincing, and the emperor should punish him lightly to correct his heart." ”

When Yang Jian heard this, he turned around and praised his beloved wife with a smile and said, "The queen can say this, and I am really lucky." Don't hide it from the emperor, the thing I am most concerned about at the moment is to see the huge sum of money and goods that I have collected through my heart and Pang Xun's hands, where is the final spending? Only by ascertaining this point can we make a certain judgment about what he is doing today. ”

Although Yang Jian said these words with a smile on his face, Dugu Jialuo still smelled a trace of ominous meaning from his husband's words, and couldn't help but persuade Yang Jian with a worried face: "Please ask the emperor to promise the concubine, no matter what is found in the future, you must take into account the fact that it is still diligent to assist the emperor in taking charge of the government for so many years, and there is no major fault, and he retains his position as the prince of the East Palace, so as not to provoke brothers to fight and kill each other, which is not conducive to the stability of the country." ”

Yang Jian's face became solemn, he groaned slightly, and sighed on his back: "I hope to see the land and cherish it, so that I can live up to my hopes." If I spend a huge sum of money on a temporary pleasure, I can barely tolerate him, I am afraid that I am only afraid...... However, please rest assured that I will not be in vain to abolish the idea. ”

Dugu Jialuo took advantage of the situation and persuaded: "Since ancient times, it is rare to hear that the prince came to the former enemy in person and led the three armies to fight on the battlefield. According to the concubine's opinion, Ah Zong has been guarding the border for a long time, and there is no lack of experience in leading the army to fight against the Turks, so the emperor might as well order him to serve as the commander of the war Chen, and recruit the auxiliary government of the land to return to the court, so that it is more secure. ”

"Let's talk about this later. Whether Ah Zong can clear the ghosts in the palace and clear the customs is also a test that I have imposed on him. It's getting late, so let's rest early. Yang Jian returned to the bed and lay down, closed his eyes, and muttered.
