Shangguan Wan'er sighed softly and shook her head helplessly.
"Qing Zhike has heard of the Doulu Clan?"
Hearing Chen Ziang's words, Yang Shouwen was stunned and looked over in surprise. He hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "What my uncle said, but Changli Dou Lu's family? ā
"Exactly!"
"Of course I do!"
Yang Shouwen replied immediately, without the slightest hesitation between his words.
Changli Dou Lu clan, a branch of the Xianbei royal family Murong clan, later surrendered in the Northern Wei Dynasty and was given the surname Doulu. In the Xianbei language, Doulu means 'to return to obedience,' and its descendants settled in Changli, where the size of the ethnic group grew.
Xianbei and Li Tang have a very close relationship.
Li Hu, the ancestor of Li Tang, whose real name is Dayehu, is also a Xianbei surname. When Li Yuan Taiyuan raised troops, the Doulu clan always followed. Later, most of the Doulu family had children who married the Li Tang royal family, and to some extent, they were also relatives of the royal family.
Yang Shouwen grew up in Changping, which is not too far from Changli.
Especially when the Jingnan Army rebelled, the performance of the Changli Dou Lu clan was quite strange. When Yang Shouwen returned to Youzhou from Saibei, he had heard Guan Hu say it, but he was in a hurry to go south at that time and didn't take it to heart. However, it is precisely because of this that he also has some impressions of the Doulu clan. Especially in the second year of the Holy Calendar, the Doulu clan was merged into the Fanyang Lu family, which caused many controversies. At that time, he lived in Xingyang, and Zheng Jingsi said it.
Five surnames and seven sects, the most important bloodline.
However, the Fan Yang Lu clan accepted the Dou Lu clan, a Hu family with a very obvious Xianbei bloodline, which made many family members feel dissatisfied, thinking that the Fan Yang Lu family had tarnished the pure bloodline of the family for thousands of years.
But in fact?
As early as Li Tang's entry into the Guanzhong, when the Li family in Longxi accepted Li Tang, a precedent had already been set......
Yang Shouwen looked at Chen Ziang suspiciously, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Guan's death, isn't it related to the Doulu clan?" ā
Chen Ziang said: "In the first year of the holy calendar, the Turkic soldiers invaded Hebei, the Jingnan army rebelled, and Murong Xuanwei led his troops to the city...... Qingzhi should have an impression of this incident, and he should also know some of the circumstances at that time. In that rebellion, the Doulu clan had heavy troops, but they were reluctant to rescue Changping, which was strange, I don't know if you have any ideas? ā
Of course, Yang Shouwen has a deep memory of that rebellion.
In his opinion, if it weren't for the Turkic rebellion, perhaps he would still be living in Changping without worries.
"Actually, my uncle should know that there were many doubts about that Turkic rebellion.
I once heard Uncle Guan mention the matter of the Doulu clan, saying that they did not move, and if it were not for General Li Yuanfang and Li Da who forced them to send troops, they probably would not have rushed to the aid of Changping. Just that thing...... Later, no one asked. ā
Yang Shouwen's words carried a hint of mockery.
Li Xian was stunned, and Shangguan Wan'er let out a long sigh.
"Qingzhi, it's not that we don't want to investigate, but that incident is too widely implicated, even Your Majesty feels jealous.
Once that incident is tracked down, it may kill many people, and even change the situation.
At that time, Di Gong dissuaded His Majesty from continuing to investigate...... His Majesty, after weighing it, finally decided to give up. ā
"Yes, if I had arrived in Changping earlier and got that evidence, the situation would have been much better...... Unfortunately, I arrived two days late, so the whereabouts of that evidence are still unknown, and I lost a great opportunity.
I suffered retribution for this, lost my legs, and almost lost my life...... Qingzhi, you are so bold and reckless as Jane, is it really just to beg for my family property? To put it bluntly, if there is no one behind it, with my reputation in the literary world, just a little bit of Jane, a small county order, no matter how bold you are, you don't dare to be so arrogant. ā
Yang Shouwen listened, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes.
He had thought of this a long time ago, but at first he thought that Wu Sansi and the others were making trouble, but now it seems that there is something else going on.
"Who is the plum blossom master!"
Yang Shouwen pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked.
Li Xian was stunned for a moment and said, "Plum blossom master? ā
He looked puzzled and looked at Chen Ziang in surprise.
And Chen Ziang also looked dazed, shook his head, and said that he didn't know very well.
But Shangguan Wan'er's face has changed!
"Qingzhi, you also know the owner of the plum blossom?"
"My aunt still remembers that in the first year of Jiushi, I was ambushed when I returned from the Western Regions and passed through Jincheng.
Later, according to my inquiry, the person behind the scenes was a person called the 'plum blossom master'. It's just that after I came back, I didn't have time to report it, and I was put in prison. After that, I went to Kennan Province and almost forgot about it.
Auntie, do you know who the owner of the plum blossom is? ā
Shangguan Wan'er hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Li Chengqi, the prince of the prime minister, loves plum blossoms.
The world only knows that he is good at musical instruments, but they don't know that he is better at painting plums, so he has the nickname of the owner of plum blossoms, which is spread in the sect. ā
After Shangguan Wan'er finished speaking, the eyes of Li Chongrun, Wei Wan and others fell on Li Xian's body.
Li Xian's face became even more ugly, his cheeks twitched slightly, and a touch of luster flashed in his eyes.
"In addition, the evidence that my uncle was looking for when he went to Changping was actually ...... I got it. ā
"What?"
When Yang Shouwen said this, Li Xian's face was changing, and Shangguan Wan'er and Chen Ziang shouted even more, looking at Yang Shouwen in surprise.
"Uncle still remembers that day in the Little Maitreya Temple, the young slave was bitten by a snake.
I also stumbled upon that evidence...... However, after watching it, my father and I felt that it was very important. At that time, my father was only a county lieutenant in Changping, and I had just woken up. That evidence is actually a list, which records many names, including the names of Zhaozhou Sima Tang Panruo and others...... My father was worried that he would be implicated, so he didn't dare to keep the list, so he destroyed it. ā
"Destroyed?"
When Li Chongrun heard this, he was immediately anxious.
"Aoyuki, how can you destroy it?"
Yang Shouwen glanced at him and said softly: "If you don't destroy it, take it with you, and give it to whom?"
If I had kept that list at that time, I was afraid that I and my family would have died long ago. Even Di Gong is unwilling to pursue it any further, so what's the use of us taking it with us? Emperor Taisun, if I gave you that list at that time, would you dare to make it public? ā
Li Chongrun couldn't help but swallow his saliva and showed a bitter smile.
Yes, at that time, even if his father and son got that list, they didn't dare to keep it in their hands!
Yang Shouwen continued: "But later, I found a painting in the house of the county governor of Jincheng County, on which there was the payment of the owner of the plum blossom. Auntie, why did I mention this plum blossom master? Because I remember very clearly, the handwriting on the list is exactly the same as the signature of the owner of the plum blossom! It was two years later, but I wasn't mistaken. ā
"Really?"
Shangguan Wan'er's eyes lit up and asked in a deep voice.
Yang Shouwen nodded, pointed to his eyes and said, "Although I am only a shallow learner, these tricks are very bright."
If the signature of the owner of the plum blossom and the handwriting on the list were not from the same person, I would have been blinded. ā
Yang Shouwen said it to this point, which also made Li Xian and others no longer have doubts.
He and Shangguan Wan'er glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake their heads.
"Qingzhi, let's talk about Guan Hu again."
This time, Li Xian didn't let anyone else endorse him, and said in a deep voice: "Guan Hu stayed in Youzhou at the beginning, but he has always had doubts about the performance of the Doulu family. Therefore, although the Shangguan girl forbade him to continue to investigate, he secretly investigated the Doulu clan in private...... His identity is not known to anyone, not even Xue Ne Xue Dudu.
After the Doulu clan was included in the Fanyang Lu clan, Guan Hu tried to secretly befriend the Doulu clan.
He was in the Governor's Mansion at the time, and he was very trusted by Xue Dudu, and after several temptations by the Doulu clan, he accepted him. He disappeared, and it was the Doulu clan who sent him incognito to work in Qinrenli, Chang'an. Later, when he gained a foothold in his family, he tried to contact us...... At the end of last year, he sent news that there were people behind his relatives who were secretly supporting him and making them in frequent contact with the Turks. Originally, he was about to find out the instigator behind Qinrenli, but he didn't want to lose contact with us again...... Until we found him a few days ago, we didn't want to ......."
Li Xian's words were about gritting his teeth.
And Yang Shouwen could vaguely hear that Li Xian seemed to know something.
He was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Is it the Prime Minister?" ā
Li Xian did not answer, while Shangguan Wan'er and the others remained silent.
"Uncle Guan has always been cautious in his work.
He was very careful, how could he be known? ā
Li Xian still didn't answer, but it was Wei Wan who said in a deep voice on the side: "Doulu Qinwang." ā
"Huh?"
"Doulu Qinwang worshiped as the right minister of Wenchang in the second year of the holy calendar, and the three products of Luantai in the same Fengge.
But in the first year of Chang'an, that is, not long after you left the Shendu and went to Jiannan Dao...... At that time, His Majesty went to Chang'an, and his father was in the regent of the dynasty. Doulu Qinwang was worshiped by his father as a guest of the prince and assisted the prince in handling court affairs. When his father saw that he was dedicated and talented, he had a desire to recruit him, and he lost his vigilance against him......
Because he was friendly with his relatives and had always been very caring, his mother often persuaded his father to entrust him with important responsibilities.
He secretly befriended San Lang, and took advantage of San Lang's youth and ignorance to know about Guan Hu's existence. ā
After Wei Wan finished speaking, he looked at Li Xian.
Li Xian showed an embarrassed expression, lowered his head and did not speak.
Yang Shouwen, on the other hand, became extremely ugly.
said a thousand things and ten thousand, the problem still lies with Li Xian.
Li Xian's ears are soft, he already knew it. It's just that he didn't expect that such an accident would happen......
What should he say?
Yang Shouwen didn't know what to do for a while.
"Father, it's okay for you to trust your mother.
But you can't obey your mother in everything...... Although she has experienced such an ordeal, she is not as broad-minded as your father after all. She couldn't tell the difference between good and evil, so naturally she couldn't see that Doulu Qinwang harbored evil intentions. But you should be cautious. ā
Li Chongrun said in a low voice, leaving Li Xian speechless.
Instead, Shangguan Wan'er waved her hand and said, "Don't blame the crown prince anymore, he is already very sad."
Now, the crown princess is grounded, and Saburo has been punished for it...... The top priority is to find out what news Guan Hu has found. He contacted me before and said that he had something very important to report. But now, he was killed, and our clues were interrupted...... So, let's think about countermeasures. ā
"Slowly, slowly, you haven't said it yet, who is that Doulu Qinwang?"
Yang Shouwen was a little dazed by them, and couldn't help but ask loudly.
Shangguan Wan'er is right, Guan Hu has been killed now...... The Crown Princess? Li Xian will never be able to repeat the rules, and Saburo Li Chongjun is afraid that he will not be able to pursue it too much. Therefore, in Yang Shouwen's view, revenge for Guan Hu is the top priority.
"The daughter of Doulu Qinwang is the princess of Xiang."
"What?"
Yang Shouwen blurted out: "You know the relationship between Doulu Qinwang and King Xiang, and you still let him be the prince's guest?" ā
Li Xian's face suddenly turned red.
He said abruptly: "I thought at that time, it was to win over and divide ......."
Needless to say, there must be a role for the crown princess Merriam-Webster.
Li Xian's idea was good, but he didn't want to think about it, since the Doulu clan had such a close relationship with the Xiangwang Mansion, how could he be divided and co-opted by him?
Thinking of this, he glanced at Shangguan Wan'er and Chen Ziang, and saw that the two of them were also smiling bitterly.
"So, the top priority is to find out what clues Uncle Guan has found, right?"
"Yes!"
"In other words, you need to go to Qinrenli?"
"That's right."
"I'll go!"
Yang Shouwen didn't say a word, so he recommended himself.
In his opinion, Li Xian came to him so late, I'm afraid that's the reason.
Who knows, as soon as he spoke, he was rejected by Li Xian with a wave of his hand.
"Qingzhi, you can't go."
"Why?"
"You just killed the servant of the Tang envoy, which shocked the court.
On the side of Honglu Temple, you will be held accountable, and many courtiers have expressed their approval. Although His Majesty forcibly suppressed this matter, but now, you are the target of everyone, and your every move is being watched, how to leave Luoyang? ā
Yang Shouwen couldn't help frowning, and couldn't help but be silent.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "Qingzhi, I came to you tonight, first, to tell you about Guan Hu, and secondly, to discuss with you, choose someone to go to Chang'an to investigate the situation." After all, Guan Hu also left some clues before his death. ā
"Who's going to go?"
"Today, there is no suitable candidate."
Yang Shouwen knew that this kind of thing should be sooner rather than later, and the longer it drags on, the clues left by Guan Hu are likely to disappear.
"This person has to be bold and careful, and he must not be well known."
"How is Zishou?"
Without waiting for Shangguan Wan'er to finish speaking, Yang Shouwen suddenly said.
"Huh?"
"Although Zishou is a scholar and a first, not many people know him.
He was very bold and calm, and he worked under my father, who also admired his talents.
What's more, Zishou has a Lingnan accent and should not be suspected.
By the way, there's another person...... Zheng Yi. He is a son of the Zheng family, and the Zheng family is in Chang'an and also has some industries. Although Zheng Yi is not very old, he is also a very clever person. Let the two of them be together, I believe they can hide people's eyes. ā
Li Xian's thick eyebrows were raised, revealing a look of joy.
And Zhang Jiuling, who has been silent on the side, is at a loss.
Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Zhang Jiuling, and after thinking for a moment, she said to Li Xian: "Good! ā
"Zishou!"
"The minister is here."
"Would you like to?"
To be honest, Zhang Jiuling didn't want to go to Chang'an.
Because he knew that going to Chang'an would be very dangerous.
But at this point, if he refuses, he will inevitably be underestimated, which will affect his future future.
So, he glanced at Yang Shouwen with resentment, and then said, "I am willing to obey the prince's order." ā
"Well, if you have any requests, you can ask for them."
Zhang Jiuling's eyes rolled, and he suddenly looked at Yang Shouwen.
A strange smile appeared on his face, which made Yang Shouwen a little hairy.
"I'd like to ask someone to come with me, but I need Aozhi's permission."
"Who?"
"It's Qingzhi's little sister, Gongsun Nuan."
"No way!" Yang Shouwen almost didn't think about it, and then opened his mouth to refuse, "The young lady has gone through hardships and returned to Luoyang, and she has not been reunited with her aunt. ā
"However, the trip to Chang'an is quite dangerous, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me and the Zheng family Xiaolang to deal with.
I've heard people say that young girls are strong in martial arts and very alert. If she had gone with me, I think I would have been able to succeed immediately. ā
"Which nonsense do you listen to, she is strong in martial arts?"
"It's Princess Anle."
Yang Shouwen was dumbfounded, not knowing how to excuse the young lady.
Of course, Li Bao'er knows the young lady's ability.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly and glared at Zhang Jiuling fiercely.
"Aoyuki, what do you think?"
"This ......" Yang Shouwen hesitated for a long time, and said softly: "I can't decide this matter, I want to ask the young lady's idea." ā
