Chapter 429: Cats and Ghosts (12)

Su Wei, an old fox in the political arena, knows very well the truth that hurricanes pass the post and the grass survives, and in the past few years, he suddenly seems to have changed his sex, and he was scolded by Yang Su for not returning the favor.

After a long time, Yang Su was not too embarrassed to beat the water dog, and the two of them surprisingly maintained their apparent harmony in the past two years.

But in secret, Su Wei has been sharpening his knife, and even dreaming of grabbing Yang Su's handle, knocking him to the ground in one fell swoop, and stepping on 10,000 feet, so that he will never be able to turn over, in order to vent the hatred in his heart for many years.

Now this cat ghost case is really a golden opportunity for Su Wei, after this village may not have this shop anymore, how can he give up halfway?

What's more, Su Wei saw that Gao Gong also had selfish intentions this time, and wanted to put Yang Su to death, with such a strong ally, the chances of winning were suddenly much greater.

Su Wei respectfully kowtowed on the ground, his face did not change and his heart did not beat: "The minister remembers the time when he was dismissed for forming a party for personal gain, and the emperor asked the minister to read the Book of Song in the court? The matter of the friends in "The Biography of Xie Hui", so this time the cat ghost case, should the emperor also take a look at "Historical Records?" The case of the witch Gu in Emperor Wu's Benji? ”

Su Wei's mention of the three witchcraft cases when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was really sinister this time. These three major cases involve both the prime minister, the queen and the crown prince.

He inadvertently reminded Emperor Wen Yang Jian: Even if you are close to your closest relatives, you will bite you back if you are in a hurry, even if Yang Su and Queen Dugu are involved in things such as witch curses such as cat ghosts, they should be investigated.

Queen Dugu's face turned blue with anger all of a sudden, and she stretched out her hand and pointed at Su Wei. said in a trembling voice: "Su Wei." You make it clear today. What do you mean by mentioning witch Gu, do you want to say that the Duke of Yue Guo is Gongsun He, or do you want to say that this palace is Wei Zifu? ”

Su Wei's face did not change, his heart did not beat, and his voice was calm with an indomitable expression: "The minister only wants to find out about this case, and he doesn't dare to point out." As for the merits, the emperor has his own decision. Now that there has been a major breakthrough in this case, Xu Ani's confession is here, and the spearhead is directed at Yue Guogong's sister Yang. May I ask why the minister should continue to investigate at this time? ”

Queen Dugu was so angry that she trembled, her lips were a little blue, but she couldn't speak.

Yang Jian had been listening to the conversation between the two with a grim face just now, but he didn't say anything to stop it, Emperor Wu of Han killed the prime minister, killed the emperor and killed the crown prince in his later years, and it enveloped his heart like a huge shadow.

He didn't want to go this far, but what Su Wei said was indeed reasonable, and he had already found out this step, if it was to this end. It is inevitable that you will fall into the reputation of bending the law for favoritism, and you will want to enforce the law in the future. will be lacking in confidence.

After muttering for a long time, Yang Jian opened his mouth and said: "Su Aiqing, you have worked hard to investigate the case, but the matter is serious, and you can't let a little girl say anything." I see that this is good, let that demon girl cast a spell in this palace tonight, I want to see with my own eyes if there is any cat ghost, if she can really recruit ghosts, then I will admit this confession, and I will definitely deal with it according to the law. ”

A complicated look flashed in Gao Gong's eyes, and he followed Su Wei and said respectfully: "Emperor Shengming." ”

When he heard Su Wei mention the witch Gu case just now, he panicked, and suddenly realized that Su Wei did not hesitate to sacrifice the prince if necessary in order to fight Yang Su, and the witch Gu case not only involved the prime minister and the queen, but also involved the prince, and this time he asked An Suiyu to pretend to be Xu Ani, if he was investigated again and found out about this matter, then Wang Shichong would be exposed, and then he would be himself, and then the whole plan would be exposed, followed by the rhythm of abolishing the prince.

Gao Gong began to secretly worry in his heart: this time it may be too big to clean up, and when the time comes, everyone will finish playing together, but it will be refreshing for Su Wei. His mind began to quickly calculate his next move.

In the second moment, in the underground secret room of the Yue Guo Mansion, Yang Xuangan, father and son, listened to Hongfu's report with a stern expression.

During the discussion the night before yesterday, Yang Su had already considered the worst outcome, and sure enough, it still happened, and the conversation in the Liangyi Hall in the morning had already been urgently entrusted by Queen Dugu to come to the Yue Guo Mansion in the name of visiting the Zheng family, and bring the situation to Yang Su, so that Yang Su could prepare early.

After Hongfu finished talking about all the situation, he looked at Yang Su with Yang Xuangan, ready to listen to how he responded.

After listening to this, Yang Su pondered for a long time, raised his head, and actually had a smile on his face: "It seems that we should be able to get through this incident safely." ”

"Why? The child feels that the situation is very serious, why is the father so optimistic? Yang Xuan asked puzzled.

Yang Su stroked his long hair proudly: "Then Su Wei shouldn't have mentioned the matter of witch Gu, that incident also involved the prince, this time Gao Gong definitely didn't dare to continue to play with him, and wanted to seek a way to get out." ”

Yang Xuangan suddenly realized, and slapped his head suddenly: "Yes, this Su Wei just wants to bring down his father, but in this way, he will be directly opposed to Gao Gong, without Gao Gong's support, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to succeed." ”

Hongfu's face also smiled: "And in this matter, Queen Dugu obviously stood with us, and she was not separated by Su Wei." ”

Yang Su nodded: "Yes, Queen Dugu's position is very important, since she openly clashed with Su Wei and sent someone to report to us, then she will not sacrifice her cooperation with us in the matter of Yichu in order to protect Dugutuo." I think Gao Gong should also see this, and will not continue to make more fuss about this matter.

And I have already told the person who came that my wife was also killed by the cat ghost, and asked her to tell Queen Dugu. In this way, the queen can also find an excellent excuse when she exonerates us, so that the emperor will not pursue the case against us. ”

Yang Xuangan sighed "um": "Then we still continue to completely cut off contact with the outside world as we did a few days ago, and only rely on the red breeze to secretly inquire about information?" ”

Yang Su shook his head, with a confident smile on his face: "If my expectations are right, the emperor should soon summon me into the palace to watch this cat ghost performance." ”

Before his words fell, the bell on the wall suddenly rang, Yang Su glanced at Yang Xuangan with a smile, walked to the wall, opened the mechanism, and Yang Hong's voice sounded in the secret room: "Master, someone from the palace, please bring the prince to the palace immediately." ”

In the middle of the night in late autumn and October, in the Daxing Imperial Palace, a faint mist was filled, revealing a cold and piercing chill, and hundreds of heavily armed Qianniu guards, all holding torches, surrounded a duty hut on the side of the Shenlong Palace, and everyone looked grim, as if facing a great enemy.

Under the firelight, Yang Jian was dressed in a yellow robe, with a heavy and complicated expression on his face, his eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the door of the hut, his eyes were motionless.

Queen Dugu sat beside him, wrapped in a thick cotton robe, coughing from time to time, and her two sons in Beijing, Yang Yong and Yang Guang, were standing beside her at this time.

Gao Gong, Yang Su, Su Wei, Niu Hong, Yuan Guan, Yuan Min, the general of the Left Guard, Liu Shu, the secretary of the military department, and more than ten important ministers were dressed in court clothes, standing behind Yang Jian, and Wang Shichong was also specially called into the palace, with the attendants, his mood was heavy, when An Suiyu was by his side, he didn't feel it, but after leaving for the past two days, he made him lose his soul and have no thoughts, and only now did he know how much he loved this woman.

Everyone had their own calculations in their hearts, but there was a calm and calm look on their faces, and the warlock Zhang Qiu Taiyi was also standing beside Yang Jian, his eyes squinted slightly, as if he was pretending to sleep, but he tightly held the peachwood sword dipped in cinnabar in his hand.

Wang Shichong's eyes scanned the people present from time to time, and finally settled on An Suiyu, who was doing the incense case at the door of the hut.

An Suiyu's face was pale and haggard, there were still a few whip marks and burns left by the torture on her exposed hands, and three of the ten fingernails had been dug off.

I saw An Suiyu as when he was arrested that day, placing a small bowl on the incense table, putting fragrant porridge and dried fish in it, burning three pillars of incense, chanting words in his mouth, dancing with his hands, and his appearance was like a madness.

Suddenly, An Suiyu stopped, her eyes widened, she picked up a small spoon on the side of the bowl, knocked on the edge of the bowl gently, and shouted something vaguely in her mouth, Wang Shichong heard it clearly, she was clearly calling: "Catwoman come out, don't live in the palace; Catwoman comes out, don't live in the palace.
