Chapter 37: The Sin of Desire

, Chapter 37 to add sin

Yang Yuanqing didn't expect Xiao Mo to come to visit him, which was really unexpected, but the look of surprise only flashed in his eyes, and he immediately laughed, "Brother Xiao, this county order is not qualified!" Running around at the ends of the earth, last time in the Western Regions, this time in Jiangdu, so what about next time, will it be outside the plug? ”

Xiao Mo also squinted and smiled: "According to the regulations of the imperial court, the county order is not allowed to leave the hometown, will Yang Yushi punish me for this?" ”

"Since Brother Xiao dares to come to see me, are you still afraid that I will be punished?"

The two glanced at each other, and they both smiled understandingly, Yang Yuanqing waved his hand, "Brother Xiao, please!" Let's go to the study. ”

The two came to the study, sat down, and Xiao Mian said straight to the point: "I apologize to General Yang for what happened four years ago." ”

Yang Yuanqing knew that he was referring to Chen Yin's killing, it seemed that Xiao Mo admitted that he was behind the scenes, Yang Yuanqing groaned and said: "There are some things, we just need to understand it in our hearts, don't break it, it's difficult for me to do it." ”

Xiao Mo nodded, he understood what Yang Yuanqing meant, and simply said openly and honestly: "I hope to help General Yang in the matter of Jiangdu, I have enough manpower." ”

"And how are you going to help me?" Yang Yuanqing asked with a smile.

"It's very simple, General Yang will show me a place, I will put some things in it, in short, it will definitely satisfy General Yang."

Yang Yuanqing looked at him and asked, "Why are you helping me?" ”

Xiao Mo smiled faintly, "Even if it's to return General Yang's favor!" ”

Yang Yuanqing knew that he was insincere, but he did need a third party to do something, the South China Society was not Wang Shichong, Wang Shichong might betray him Yang Yuanqing for his own interests, but the South China Society would not, thinking of this, Yang Yuanqing took out a piece of paper from the table, handed it to Xiao Mo and said, "Just this villa." ”

Xiao Mo glanced at it, got up and said goodbye, "General Yang, I can arrange everything tonight, I wish General Yang a great success!" ”

Yang Yuanqing also arched his hand and smiled: "Then thank you Brother Xiao!" ”

......

Sending Xiao Mo away, Yang Yuanqing returned to the study, only to see Yang Sanlang and a middle-aged scribe waiting to see him outside the study, so he stepped forward and said with a smile: "Is this the person?" ”

Yang Sanlang said to Yang Yuanqing with his ear: "This person is known as a ghost pen in Jiangdu, very good at imitating handwriting, he has an apprentice named Zhao Sui, who is a scribe in the county government, and now he is missing, this person's surname is Jia, maybe the son can use him." ”

The man knelt down and kowtowed, "Xiao Minjia is just going to knock on Lord Yushi!" ”

Yang Yuanqing glanced at him and said, "Come in!" ”

Yang Sanlang took the middle-aged scribe into the study, Yang Yuanqing ordered him to sit down at the small table, took a letter of his own, handed it to him, and said, "This is my letter, Mr. Jia imitate it, I'll take a look." ”

"Yes!"

Jia Zhengyi spread out Yang Yuanqing's letter, carefully looked at the handwriting on one side, and gestured in the air with his hand for a while, then lifted the pen and waved it quickly, almost in one go.

After writing, he put down his pen and smiled: "The villain is ugly!" ”

Yang Sanlang presented the letter to Yang Yuanqing, Yang Yuanqing was stunned, if it weren't for the ink on it that hadn't dried, he thought it was his own letter, and he carefully compared his original letter, and couldn't help but be amazed, it was exactly the same, even he couldn't tell the difference.

"It's a ghost pen, and it's really a pen."

Yang Yuanqing sighed in admiration, he took out a few letters from Zhang Jin, which were found in Zhang Yunyi's study, and handed them to Jia Zhengyi, "You write a letter for me, just use this person's handwriting." ”

Jia Zhengyi didn't answer, but fell to his knees, kowtowed and begged: "I am willing to serve Yang Yushi, and I only beg Yang Yushi to spare the villain's life." ”

Yang Yuanqing laughed, "How do you know I'm going to kill you?" ”

"The villain has an apprentice, who is a clerk in the county government, he told me a few days ago that he wrote something for Taishou, and he disappeared that night, and the villain knows that there is a ** that will be wiped out, and he is willing to ask Yang Yushi to spare the villain, and the villain still has a wife and children at home."

Yang Yuanqing glanced at him and asked lightly: "Your accent doesn't look like a Jiangdu person, but it looks like an accent in Youzhou." ”

Jia Zhengyi wept and said: "The villain is actually from Yanmen County, last year Yanmen County requisitioned 30,000 people to build the Great Wall, and the villain's name was on the list, so the villain fled to Jiangdu with his wife and children, and took in a few apprentices to support his family. ”

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "I do lack a few scribes under me, you can follow me in the future!" Sort out the paperwork for me, bring your wife and daughter with you, and I won't treat you badly. ”

Jia Zhengyi was ecstatic in his heart, not only did he get a good job, but he would not be killed by murder, which was the most important thing.

"The villain is willing to serve Yang Yushi!"

Yang Yuanqing took out a piece of paper, on which was the content he needed, and handed it to Jia Zhengyi, "Just write a letter with this content according to the handwriting of the few letters I gave you just now, and write it before tomorrow morning, I need it." ”

Jia Zhengyi hurriedly bowed down and said, "Please rest assured Yang Yushi, it will definitely be done!" ”

"You might as well call me General Yang in the future."

"Yes! General Yang. ”

Yang Yuanqing smiled and said to Yang Sanlang: "Take Mr. Jia to arrange a courtyard, what you need, just provide it!" ”

Yang Sanlang saluted and went down with Jia Zhengyi, Yang Yuanqing thought for a moment, if it was just to bring down Zhang Yun

Killing Wei Deyu was enough to condemn him

But I want to move

Portion size or not

We have to be ruthless

Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

.......

The next day

Yang Yuanqing took the Si Li doctor Xue Dao

As well as hundreds of rides

Rushing to the southwest of Jiangdu City

In the southwest of Jiangdu City

All along the way, there are gentle mountain rises

Piece of Forest

A small river meanders

The scenery is exceptional

Run out of only ten

I saw a group of buildings covering thousands of acres

Red walls and black walls

Cornices

Impressive

This is the largest palace of the Great Sui Emperor in the south of the Yangtze River

The long wall stretched for nearly twenty miles.

But Yang Yuanqing was not coming to Jiangdu Palace, they galloped through the official road next to the palace, and continued to move south, all the way to the south were farmland villages, and the wide official road had disappeared, leaving only narrow field paths.

But everyone kept going, continued to gallop, about another twenty miles, there was a manor in front of them, the manor is not big, covering an area of hundreds of acres, in the distance is a small village of more than 20 families, inhabited by tenants who rent this grange, in the manor, there is a black two-story house, about the size of an acre of land, standing alone in the field, it looks a little strange.

"Yang Yushi, what are we doing here?" Xue Daoheng asked puzzled.

"This is Zhang Jin's manor, called Yinzhuang, not known to outsiders, in Wei Yushi's recital, I saw Wei Yushi marked it with a key circle, I estimate what Wei Yushi found in this grange, and Zhang Jin's letter to his son Zhang Yunyi, also mentioned this villa, the letter said that the things in the village should be carefully kept, if there is an accident, immediately destroyed."

Yang Yuanqing handed a letter from Zhang Jin to Xue Daoheng, "Doctor Xue read it for himself!" This was found in Zhang Yunyi's study. ”

Xue Daoheng looked at the letter, it was Zhang Jin's handwriting, he had seen it, it was very desolate and rough, Xue Daoheng frowned, "What did Zhang Jin hide in the manor?" ”

"Just search and you'll find out."

Yang Yuanqing waved his hand, "Let's search for the bottom!" ”

Hundreds of cavalry rushed into the manor and began to search vigorously, Xue Daoheng looked at the north, from here he could even faintly see the top of the stupa of Jiangdu Palace, he was a little surprised: "This place is a little too close to Jiangdu Palace." ”

"It's only twenty miles away, it's suspicious!"

At this time, a cavalryman stepped forward to report: "Qi Yang Yushi, the housekeeper of this manor has fled, and the house in the middle is empty and empty. ”

As soon as the words fell, a soldier's shout came from a distance, "Yang Yushi, we have found something!" ”

Yang Yuanqing and Xue Daoheng urged the horse to go to the empty house, only to see the door of the house wide open, and the soldiers carried out large wooden boxes from the basement, piled up in the yard, there were twenty large boxes, and the word 'Zhang Fu' was written in the upper right corner of the wooden box.

"Pry open the box!"

Yang Yuanqing gave an order, and the soldiers stepped forward one after another to pry the box, 'Whoa! There was a metallic sound, and hundreds of weapons, including swords, spears, and crossbows, slipped out of a large chest.

"This is a weapon too!"

"It's the same over here!"

The soldiers shouted one after another, and the twenty large boxes were all filled with all kinds of prohibited weapons, and the soldiers counted them one by one, compiled records, and there were as many as 500 crossbows alone, adding up to 3,000 weapons.

Yang Yuanqing gasped and said to Xue Daoheng: "Doctor Xue, Zhang Jin actually secretly hid weapons near Jiangdu Palace, with ill intentions!" ”

Xue Daoheng was a little frightened, he hesitated and said: "Although there are weapons hidden, we have not found out that the Zhang family has a private army, who is taking so many weapons for?" ”

Yang Yuanqing glanced at him and said coldly: "It seems that Doctor Xue is a little forgetful, the two ships have raised 1,500 thugs, isn't this a private army?" ”

Xue Daoheng took a step back, a look of fear appeared in his eyes, he knew very well what the consequences of this recital would be? Once the emperor approves it, it will be a crime of beheading, which is too serious.

"Doctor Xue, according to our agreement, you will write the recital, and I will give you all the evidence, as well as the witnesses." Yang Yuanqing looked at him and said.

Xue Daoheng's heart was empty, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said: "Yang Yushi, the stakes are very high, I am the only one to write, I'm afraid the convincing power is not enough, it is better to let the Yushitai and Si Litai write together, even if the Yushi and Si Li jointly investigate the impeachment, Yang Yushi will see how it is." ”

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "Then we'll make up our minds!" ”

.......

A month later, the impeachment report jointly written by Yang Yuanqing, the imperial historian, and Xue Daoheng, the chief physician of the imperial history, was sent to the capital, impeaching Zhang Jin, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, for secretly hiding weapons near the Jiangdu Palace, and using the boat to raise 1,500 private troops.

This recital caused an uproar in the imperial court, Emperor Yang Guang was extremely angry, regardless of Zhang Jin's repeated shouts of injustice, and ordered Zhang Jin to be killed with a cane outside the noon gate, and his whole family of more than 500 people were not official slaves, and sent to Lingnan to fill the army, and the rest of the Zhang family was implicated as many as 10,000 people, and this big case that occurred at the end of the fourth year of the Great Cause became the first major case of the year, which shocked the Great Sui Dynasty.

On the second day after Zhang Jin was killed with a rod and his house was raided, Emperor Yang Guang issued a second decree and promoted Yang Yuanqing, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, to the general of Zuo Xiaowei and the prince of Wuyuan County.
