Chapter 274
A crescent moon rises into the sky and hangs diagonally on the side of the mountaintop. The night in the mountains is quiet and peaceful, the mountain wind blows, and the sound of armor rubbing and the neighing of war horses from time to time in the dark night remind that this mountain is not a pure land.
In the apse of the stone urn temple, a huge white marble Buddha sits on the throne, his eyes are silent, looking at the Tang monarchs and ministers sitting in rows in the hall. Xuanzong sat on the couch, several palace maids behind him slightly fanned for him, and the person sitting at the bottom with a thin face and a wrinkled face was Li Linfu. Just arrived from the capital, there was still a faint amount of dust on the hem of the sleeves of Li Linfu's robe, and there was a lot of dust on his eyebrows and beard.
At this moment, Li Linfu looked a little anxious, because he had just heard Xuanzong say about Yang Shenjin, Li Linfu did not have the slightest defense, although he tried his best to remain calm, he still couldn't hide his panic.
"Is this what Your Majesty summoned the old minister for? Forgive the old minister's bluntness, the old minister thinks that this is a rumor spread by someone with ulterior motives. His Majesty Yang Shenjin knows better than Lao Chen, and he may have a lot of shortcomings, but if he is said to be doing something rebellious behind his back, Lao Chen feels very suspicious. Did His Majesty himself praise him for being 'virtuous and faithful'? How can such a thing be believed? Li Linfu tried his best to use an indifferent tone to make his words seem not so eager to refute Yang Shenjin.
Xuanzong said: "I didn't believe in this matter, I actually felt that it was unlikely, but Wang Yuan's words were right, whether it was framed or not, this matter must be investigated, and it is good to return Yang Shenjin to a clean slate." Moreover, after reading a poem by Wang Yuan today, I also felt that some people were virtuous and loyal at first, but after a long time, they forgot their original intentions, and they may become filthy and turbid, and do some incredible things. I hope Yang Shenjin is not such a person, so I have to figure this out. ”
Li Linfu said: "What Your Majesty said is also true. This matter must be investigated to find out what the purpose of the rumor-mongers is. Your Majesty, since you have spoken of this, the old minister also knows that the culprit of the arson and bloodshed in the Immortal View in Yongpingfang last night turned out to be Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan was extremely bold and reckless, and dared to be so lawless in the capital, and more than a dozen Taoists were killed in the Immortal Temple, and they were all burned to ashes. Nanya's soldiers and horses worked all night to arrest the murderer, but they didn't expect it to be a good thing he did. The old minister asked His Majesty to issue an order to immediately bring Wang Yuan to the case for trial. ”
Xuanzong frowned and said: "Xiangguo, I called you here to discuss Yang Shenjin's matter, how did you get involved with Wang Yuan." Wang Yuan has already made it clear to me that he rushed into the concept of immortality in order to save talents. In the view, this group of demons gathered, and the demons bewitched the people to insult the women in Beijing, Wang Yuan went to theorize, they actually dared to commit murder. Fortunately, Wang Yuan took his family and handed him over, so he killed someone and burned the temple. Originally, I wanted you to find out whose negligence was in the security matters of the capital, allowing a group of demons to do anything wrong in the city. Could it be that the political affairs hall hasn't noticed what this group of demons has done for so long? That's where the real dereliction of duty lies. ”
Li Linfu was stunned, and he should blame himself for his dereliction of duty for a while, because the soldiers and horses of the Nanya are under the jurisdiction of the political affairs hall, and the public security is also under the jurisdiction of the soldiers and horses of the southern government, and he is the head of the political affairs hall, so he will inevitably be responsible.
"This ...... The old minister should die, and he will strictly investigate this matter when he turns back. Li Linfu decided to put an end to the topic.
Xuanzong didn't seem to want to pursue it, and continued: "Wang Yuan has given me a suggestion, suggesting that you take the lead to investigate Yang Shenjin's case and see if there is a book hidden in Yang Shenjin's mansion. If so, what exactly was written? I think his proposal is good, and he thinks that the only person in the court who can be called fair is you, and I think he is right. I will naturally leave these things to you, because you are the person I trust the most. Wang Yuan didn't say anything about this matter, but only played it to me, and I told Lux about it, and now you know it, and there are only a few people who know about it. ”
Li Linfu was a little surprised that Wang Yuan didn't tell Yang Zhao about this, which was a bit incredible. In the battle for the left phase, this is a thing that is beneficial to Yang Zhao. Looking at the palace, Yang Zhao is not listed, which shows that what His Majesty said is true. Otherwise, with Yang Zhao's temperament, he would already be making noise here.
What's even more surprising is that Wang Yuan actually suggested that His Majesty let him take the lead in investigating this matter, everyone knows that Yang Shenjin is his own person, what kind of purpose is behind this suggestion, but it is intriguing. Your Majesty said that the most trusted person is yourself, this is credible but you must not believe it all, maybe Your Majesty is testing yourself, if the matter is true, Yang Shenjin is really planning a conspiracy behind his back, if he is a little careless, he will be involved. On the other hand, Yang Shenjin is his right-hand man, and if he can't return his innocence, it will also be a huge blow to himself.
"Thank you Your Majesty for your trust, the old minister will investigate this matter clearly and report it to Your Majesty. However, the old minister believes that some officials should be involved in this matter to ensure that there will be no mistakes or omissions. ”
"I've given it to you, and you can pick someone yourself. If you have someone in your heart, you can report your name to me and hear it. ”
"Candidate, think about it...... Not...... First, they must have rich experience in handling cases, and second, they must act fairly. There are a few. A rough calculation, Dali Qing Li Daodi, Shaoqing Yang Wangshou, the palace servant Yu Shi Lu Xuan, and the imperial history of Cheng Wang Ji are available, I don't know if His Majesty thinks it is possible. ”
Li Linfu decided to completely resolve this matter internally, so as not to let others have the slightest chance to interfere and frame him. These people are completely at their own orders, and it is easy for them to do whatever they want. Li Linfu finally thought that it was impossible for Yang Shenjin to behave abnormally, and he chose to trust Yang Shenjin and could not lose this right-hand man at a critical time.
Xuanzong didn't seem to care who he chose, nodded and said, "I said, whoever you say is suitable, I just need a result." I also hope that Yang Shenjin's matter is nothing, but no one dares to guarantee that something will happen. Everything speaks with evidence. ”
Li Linfu thanked and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your trust, the old minister will do his best." ”
Xuanzong waved his hand and said, "Wang Yuan is outside the hall, and he will hand over to you the confession of interrogating the demon Dao Shi Jingzhong in a while." Shi Jingzhong is in the capital, and he will return to the capital with you early tomorrow morning to hand over the demon path to you. The rest is up to you. ”
Li Linfu said: "The old minister knows. ”
"You go, Lux, and order someone to arrange wine and dinner to entertain Xiangguo, and arrange a proper place to live." Xuanzong got up, stretched out his hand and picked up a few sticks of incense and lit them, offered them in front of the Buddha, and strode away.
……
Wang Yuan came out of the temple, the lights and shadows flickered in front of the temple gate, and several figures stood in the distance as if waiting for him. Wang Yuan took a closer look and found that it was Mrs. Qin Guo and Qingyun'er Ziyun'er.
Wang Yuan slowly walked down the mountain into the valley, and Mrs. Qin Guo and the others slowly followed, until they reached the left of the valley waterfall, Wang Yuan stopped and stopped, and Mrs. Qin Guo and the others sped up their pace to catch up. Li Linfu is already here, and the contact between them needs to be extremely cautious, otherwise once it is detected, it will be wasted.
"How's it going?" Mrs. Qin asked, holding Wang Yuan's arm.
Wang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "As expected, Li Linfu chose his person to investigate, and Wang Ji was among them." I will go back to the capital early tomorrow morning, and I will get in touch with Wang Ji as soon as possible, which is the key to the matter. ”
Mrs. Qin Guo nodded and said, "I hope you can succeed." Erlang, I apologize to you on behalf of my cousin, he has no courage, this matter can only be done by you, this should be his business. ”
Wang Yuan looked at Mrs. Qin Guo with a smile, and under the dark moon, Mrs. Qin Guo's flower appearance had a hazy beauty, and her body exuded a faint fragrance.
"It's nothing, don't mind, if you care about this, how can it be done? Besides...... For your sake, I'm willing to do it. ”
Mrs. Qin Guo was very moved, her body was pasted up, Wang Yuan smiled: "I'm covered in sweat, go to the pool to take a bath, will Mrs. come too?" Are Qing'er and Zi'er coming? ”
Mrs. Qin Guo hurriedly said: "Don't, that pool of water is very. Deep and cool too. Qingyun'er and Ziyun'er waved their hands again and again.
Wang Yuan smiled: "I just need to be calm and calm, I'll go and wash myself." ”
Mrs. Qin Guo was about to stop it, but seeing Wang Yuan quickly make a move, she took off her essence in front of the three women, under the faint crescent moon, the slender figure was perfect and strong, the three women were blindfolded, and they heard each other's poofs, Wang Yuan jumped into the water like a white fish, waved his arms to hit the water, and shuttled freely in the deep pool.
