Honestly?

When Yang Shouwen heard this slightly unfamiliar name, his body couldn't help but shake slightly, and his face showed even more surprise.

"Ji Laoshi, are you sure that person is called Ji Laoshi?"

Yang Chou'er didn't expect that Yang Shouwen would have such a big reaction after hearing this name.

He nodded instinctively and said, "Of course I can be sure, I've known that Ji honestly for five years, how can I remember it wrong?" ”

"Where does he live?"

"I don't know...... Before, his trick team lived in the Tongbao Inn in Tongli Place. However, a few days ago, he said that he was going back to his hometown, and I did not contact him again. Childe should know that these people in the rivers and lakes are like this, wandering around and living in no fixed place. I'm just working with Ji honestly, he gives money, I do things, I really don't know what's going on. ”

Yang Chou'er shouted loudly, squatting on the ground and holding her head.

Yang Shouwen turned his head to look at Dou Yilang, and saw that Dou Yilang didn't say a word, and shouted loudly: "Silly big man, follow me." ”

On the other side, Li Guo also instructed the guards: "Hurry up and go over to help." ”

Before the words fell, more than a dozen strong men rushed out of the street and went straight to Tongli Fang.

Tongli Fang, located in the north of Nanshi, is only half the size of an ordinary Fang City, and it is also a poor Fang City in Luoyang.

Yang Shouwen squatted down, picked up the green slave and walked out.

"Look at him, don't let him go without my orders."

The city supervisor immediately replied, although they didn't know who Yang Shouwen was, but seeing him follow Li Guo, they knew that his identity was not ordinary.

How could an official at the level of a city supervisor dare to disobey Yang Shouwen's order?

Mi Niang took Zheng Qian and Xue Song and followed behind Yang Shouwen and Li Guo.

Behind them. Three other guards followed closely.

"King of Yixing?"

Yang Shouwen hugged Yang Qingnu. While walking, he looked at Li Guo.

"I remember. The king of Yixing seems to be called Li Chongjun. ”

"Hee-hee, that's my third brother."

Li Guohun didn't care, and explained with a smile: "I have a total of three brothers, I can't use the eldest brother's waist card, and the relationship between the second brother and me is not very good." Therefore, I had to use the third brother's waist card...... Hee-hee, so you won't be afraid of being bullied. ”

How many sons does Tang Zhongzong Li Xian have?

Yang Shouwen is not very clear.

He knew that Li Chongrun seemed to be the emperor's grandson; I've also heard of Lee Chong-jun. However, I learned it from the "Daming Palace Ci" directed by director Li Shaohong in later generations. In addition to these two people, the news of Li Xian's other sons, Yang Shouwen's memory is a little vague. Therefore, Yang Shouwen has no doubts about Li Guo's identity.

Out of the north gate of Nanshi, across a street, opposite is Tongli Fang.

At this time, all the martial marquis in Tongli Fang came out, and without waiting for Yang Shouwen to reveal his identity, a guard rushed out. After saying a few words to Na Wuhou, Wuhou led the way in front. Go straight to the notification inn in the fang.

An inn built in the city of the slums, the scale can be imagined.

In fact, it is a big car shop, divided into two floors, the first floor is six shops, the second floor has a few guest rooms, the area is pitiful.

Prices in Luoyang are very high, but the cost of such a large car shop is very low.

"It's gone!"

"When did you leave?"

"About six days ago."

Dou Yilang stepped forward and whispered to Yang Shouwen.

Yang Shouwen's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.

He was silent for a moment, and then walked in front of the shopkeeper of the big car shop, "Let me ask you, how long has the Minzhou Trick Troupe lived here?" ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly replied, "They moved in at the beginning of February, and they have been here for two months. ”

"Are you familiar with them?"

"Familiar, Ji Honest, every time they come to Luoyang, they will stay with me...... All told, I've known him for seven years, to say the least. ”

Yang Shouwen closed his eyes and calculated silently in his heart.

"They often come to Luoyang?"

"It's not very often, is it?"

The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Childe, you also know that most of these people in the rivers and lakes are wandering around, and they rarely stay in one place for a long time. But the reason why I am impressed by this trick is that he is very bold. Think about it...... The first year of longevity! That's right, it's the first year of longevity! He probably arrived in Luoyang at the end of that year, where he stayed for three months until the following year. Well, there weren't that many people on his team back then.

It was about the summer of the second year of longevity, almost autumn, he returned to Luoyang, still lived with me, and lived for two months, and then said that the business was not good, and he was going to go to Jiangzuo for a walk. And then he reappeared, years later! Long live the first year of Tongtian...... Well, around the Shangyuan Festival, his pomp and circumstance were much bigger at that time.

Not long after, he was gone again.

This is his fourth visit to Luoyang, and the villain will not be mistaken. ”

"Write it down."

"Huh?"

On the side, Li Guo said: "Write down what you just said, do you understand?" ”

As he spoke, he snorted, and two strong men immediately came up.

The shopkeeper was frightened and quickly nodded in agreement.

Li Guo asked curiously: "Yang Qingzhi, do you recognize this plan as honest?" ”

"He should be the murderer of January's parents."

"What?"

At the moment, Yang Shouwen told Li Guo in detail what he encountered when he went south from Youzhou at the beginning of the year and passed through Pingjiao.

"I'm not sure, but I guess there's nothing wrong with that.

This man is very clever and cunning. ”

Li Guo nodded, and after a while, he asked, "Then how could you be sure that it was that Yang Chou'er just now?" ”

Yang Shouwen smiled and whispered in Li Guo's ear: "How do I know? I lied to him, but I didn't expect him to be really fooled. ”

The hot breath exhaled from Yang Shouwen's mouth blew on Li Guo's ears, itchy.

On his white cheeks, which were so handsome that he couldn't find a girlfriend, two scarlets suddenly flew up.

"You lied to him?"

Li Guo's heart thumped, took a step back slightly, and opened a distance from Yang Shouwen, and then pretended to be shocked: "You are very smart." ”

"You just found out!" Yang Shouwen didn't notice Li Guo's movements. smiled: "When I was in Tongma Mo before. Gonu once said, "Only children can get into my pool." I was thinking. Ordinary children would definitely not do such a thing. It was still a bit cold, and no one would let their children do that.

I thought, if it's not a kid, it's a very small guy.

Just now, I watched Yang Chouer's performance, and I didn't think too much about it at first. But when I saw that he could shrink his bones, I suddenly thought. With Yang Chouer's kung fu, if he is proficient in water, he may pass through the water gate.

But although Luoyang is big, there are not many people of his stature and his skills. Especially when he saw me, I could sense the fear in his eyes. If you hadn't done anything wrong, it wouldn't have been this kind of reaction...... So I yelled, I didn't expect him to be really fooled! However, I would like to thank you for your talent, if not with this kid's skills. Maybe he'll really run away, but he's the head snake of Luoyang. ”

Yang Shouwen explained. Li Guo didn't say a word, and looked at him quietly on the side.

There was a strange look in his eyes......

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Shangyang Palace, Guanfeng Palace.

The Empress Zetian sat upright, a jade hand on the long case in front of her, and her fingers slowly tapped on the table.

Tuk-Tuk-Tuk-

The pace of her tapping on the table was slow, but it carried a strange magic that made His Majesty Dan's people feel an unbearable coercion.

Li Xian, Li Dan, and Wu Sansi were all ordered to come.

There are also Di Renjie and Feng Pavilion attendant Yao Chong also waiting on the side.

However, the difference with others is that Di Renjie is sitting, while everyone else is standing. Di Renjie was not just sitting, but there was also a long case in front of him, and the notes brought by Shangguan Wan'er were placed on the long case.

"Huaiying, can you see anything?"

Di Renjie raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Although the handwriting on this is blurry, it is certain that it is written by Yuan Wendu." Lao Chen had seen the articles he wrote, so he was no stranger to his handwriting. And the date written in this note should be between the end of the thirteenth year of the Great Cause and the beginning of the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, which is more consistent with the time guessed by the old minister. ”

Li Xian was confused, and couldn't help asking, "Elder Guo, what are you talking about?" ”

Di Renjie smiled slightly, turned his head to look at Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian nodded, which means: It's better for you to explain.

Di Renjie slowly stood up, and Yao Chong, the waiter of the Feng Pavilion on the side, hurriedly stepped forward and supported him.

"In the first year of Long Live Tongtian, when I returned to the Shendu from Pengze, I wanted to choose a residence in the Shendu. Don't hide it from you, someone once recommended the house in Tongma Mo to me at that time, but although the house was abandoned for many years, it was very expensive. I really liked the environment of the house, but unfortunately I was shy in my pocket, so I could only refuse painfully. ”

Everyone knows that Di Renjie is not rich.

The situation he said was also normal, and even Wu Sansi couldn't help laughing.

"I knew that the old man liked Bronze Horse Mo, so I bought it and gave it to the old man."

Di Renjie smiled and arched his hand, thanking Wu Sansi.

His action also made Wu Zetian very happy. This shows that Di Renjie's attitude towards the martial arts is not bad.

Di Renjie continued: "But although I rejected Tong Ma Mo's house, I heard some stories about Tong Ma Mo. started from Huo Xianke, and it was not until Su Zhixing bought the house later. I thought at the time that Huo Xian might have died of vendetta, but then the two owners of the house died quite strangely, and there seemed to be some mystery in it.

I was going to do some research, but ......"

Di Renjie said, looking at Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian waved his hand, "Huaiying has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, you seem to make me feel like I'm stingy." ”

Di Renjie bowed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Li Quanzhong and Sun Wanrong rebelled in Youzhou, and I was ordered to go to Hebei to supervise the war, so I also left aside this matter of Tongma Mo and almost forgot about it." But the next year, that is, the first year of Shengong, I returned from Youzhou, but I heard the news that Su Zhixing had been killed. I don't know Su Zhixing, and I don't know what this person does. But I instinctively felt that Su Zhixing's death seemed to have a big mystery.

After that, the story of the copper horse complaining about the ghost asking for his life. began to spread in Luoyang. And everyone knows it......"

Speaking of which. Di Renjie glanced at Li Dan out of the corner of his eye.

But he immediately withdrew his gaze and said, "Okay, let's talk about this Yuanwendu."

In the past two years, I have been in poor health and often recuperate at home. In my spare time, I also looked through some county records in Luoyang.

I won't go into details, I think everyone knows who this yuan is.

I heard a legend, though. It's about a treasure of the previous dynasty. ”

After Di Renjie said this, everyone present had different expressions.

Wu Sansi couldn't help but say, "What treasure?" ”

This Yuan Wendu, a native of Luoyang, a member of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the great-great-grandson of Tuoba Tianci, the king of Ruyin, and the son of the A.D. rule of Anchang County, is a person with a straight personality and a clear discernment. He was once a sergeant of the right attendant of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and later served the Sui Dynasty, successively serving as the Inner Shi Sheren, Shangshu Zuocheng, Taifu Qing and other positions. His talent and ability were among the best at the time.

After Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne. Yuan Wendu worshiped Imperial Doctor Shi and was deeply trusted by Emperor Yang of Sui.

In the thirteenth year of the great cause, Emperor Yang of Sui left Jiangdu.

Yuan Wendu, Duan Da, Huangfu Wuyi and Wei Jin and others stayed in the eastern capital, and the following year Emperor Yang of Sui died, and they elected Yang Tong, the king of Yue, as the emperor, that is, the emperor recorded in the history books. At this time, the Yuan Wendu was the internal history order, the Kaifu Yitong three divisions, the Guanglu doctor, the left Xiaowei general, the right Yiwei general, and the Lu Guogong, which could be powerful and highly used.

However, during the period of the emperor's reign, the world was already in turmoil, and the rebels from all walks of life were endless.

At that time, the military power of Luoyang was controlled by Wang Shichong, and there was Yu culture and Yang Hao, the king of Qin, as the emperor.

In order to balance Wang Shichong, but also to fight against the rebels and strengthen his own strength, Yuan Wendu offered advice to Yang Tong, the lord of Huangtai, and recruited Li Mi to come. At that time, although Wagang had fallen apart, Li Mi's own strength still existed.

If you can appease Li Mi, you can suppress Wang Shichong.

It was precisely for this matter that Yuan Wen offended Wang Shichong. Even when Yang Tong was about to promote Yuan Wendu to be the imperial historian, Wang Shichong also vigorously obstructed it. Yuan Wendu, in view of Wang Shichong's military power, became more and more domineering, so he admonished Wang Shichong to kill. Moreover, he joined forces with Lu Chu and other ministers of the court, preparing to ambush and kill Wang Shichong when he entered the court.

It's just that Yuan Wen didn't expect that this plan was leaked.

Duan Da, who was also left behind in the Eastern Capital, turned his back on the Emperor Taizhu and Yuan Wendu and took refuge in Wang Shichong.

That Wang Shichong immediately entered Hanjia City, not only killed Yuan Wendu, but also killed all the people and children of Yuan Wendu.

Di Renjie paused when he said this.

He looked at the people in the Guanfeng Palace, and then said: "However, in order to recruit Li Mi and cooperate with Li Mi to recruit troops and horses, Yang Tong, the lord of the Imperial Tai, poured all the treasury and secretly raised 500,000 collars, ready to wait for Li Mi to hand over to him after he arrived.

However, after the death of Yuan Wendu, the 500,000 collar gold also disappeared. ”

In the main hall, there was a sudden silence.

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, and they all show a look of shock.

500,000 gold ...... If you follow the exchange rate at the end of the Sui Dynasty, one collar of gold is one hundred and twenty guan. Now, gold may not be worth as much, but a collar of gold is about eighty pounds. How much is half a million collar gold? A full 40 million through the Kaiyuan Tongbao. That's an astronomical sum for all of you.

Feng Pavilion Squire Yao Chong couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and forced a smile: "Guo Lao, are there really so many?" Why has the lower officials never heard of this? ”

"This matter is true!"

Wu Zetian suddenly said: "I have also heard of it.

In the early years, when Emperor Taizong was alive, he once ordered Hou Junji to secretly investigate the matter. Later, the prince rebelled, and Hou Junji was also implicated and was given to die. After his death, the matter was over, and there were not many people who knew about it. ”

That is, is it true?

Di Renjie said: "I have always felt that the frequent murders of Tongma Mo are likely to be related to this gold.

This time, Yang Qingzhi found Yuan Wendu's notes, and from this note, my guess was also confirmed...... Yuan Wendu said that after Li Mi accepted the appeasement of the emperor, he once told him that his soldiers and horses had fought bloody battles and suffered a great loss of strength, and hoped that the imperial court could give more support. At that time, the emperor was anxious to order him to go to Wujiao Pass to defend against Yu Wenhua, so he secretly ordered Yuan Wendu to send the gold out of Luoyang and hand it over to Li Mi. This is also the reason why the whereabouts of gold are unknown after the death of Yuan Wendu. ”

"Where did the gold go?"

Wu Sansi couldn't bear it anymore and jumped out and asked loudly.

Di Renjie smiled and said, "King Liang is not in a hurry...... Since ancient times, the male soldiers came out of Danyang, and at that time, Du Fuwei relied on the Danyang soldiers and horses in his hands to run rampant, and Li Mi had long been envious. Yuan Wendu only said that he handed over the gold to Li Mi, but he didn't know how Li Mi used it. However, in the past two years of secret investigation, I accidentally discovered something. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, do you know who Zuo Youxian is?"

Wu Zetian was stunned when he heard this, showed a stunned look, and shook his head lightly.

"I know."

Yao Chong opened his mouth and said: "Zuo Youxian seems to be a scattered person in Jiulong Mountain, it is said that he is proficient in channel skills, and his skills are superb. However, I only know that this person has a very good relationship with Fu Gongyou. In order to avoid Du Fuwei's suspicion, Fu Gongyou followed Zuo Youxian to learn the Tao, and later confused Du Fuwei. ”

"And that kind of thing?"

At the turn of the Sui and Tang dynasties, seventy years have passed since now, and many things have slowly been covered up with the passage of time.

Wu Zetian showed a sudden look and turned his head to look at Di Renjie.

"Could it be that Li Mi handed over the gold to Zuo Youxian?"

"It is not very clear whether Li Mi handed over the gold to Zuo Youxian Lao Chen, but Lao Chen knew that Li Mi and Zuo Youxian could be regarded as friends of life and death. It's just that Zuo Youxian has been in Jiangnan all the year round, so not many people know about Zuo Youxian's existence.

Lao Chen only found out about this time from a note by Jia Yanfu...... In the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, Li Mi and Yu Wenhua were in the midst of a fierce battle at Wugao Pass, but they arranged for Jia Yanfu to escort a batch of grain to Jiulong Mountain and hand it over to Zuo Youxian. Jia Yanfu also had doubts at the time, but he didn't think too much about it. After delivering the grain to Jiulong Mountain, he returned to Luoyang, and then had a dispute with Li Mi and defected to Emperor Taizong. He wrote in his notes that the grain was heavy. ”

For a while, there was silence in the hall.

Wu Zetian stood up and walked from His Majesty Dan to Di Renjie, "Huaiying, you just need to tell me, what should I do?" (To be continued.) )
