Chapter 37 Tripartite Confrontation

Yang Yuanqing walked into the inner hall under the guidance of a eunuch, "Minister Yang Yuanqing see Your Majesty!" He gave a long salute.

"Is this General Yang?" Yang Guang asked the little eunuch.

"Yes, it's him, the slave only saw him when he entered the palace last time."

"Hmm!"

Yang Guang nodded, and asked Yang Yuanqing casually, "General Yang, you should have a eunuch nameplate on you!" ”

There is no need to explain, and there is no need to deny, Yang Yuanqing took out the eunuch's nameplate and presented it to Yang Guang, a "waiter" guard took it and handed it to Yang Guang, Yang Guang looked at it, the eunuch Li Yi, the "servant" in the palace of the king of Qi.

"Say it! Regarding this nameplate, what happened before and after, you honestly "delivered" to me. ”

"Obedience!"

Yang Yuanqing pondered for a moment, and then started from when he went to see the King of Jin, and continued to say that he stuffed the eunuch's body into the well, and all the details were not hidden, basically the same as what the little eunuch said, and finally Yang Yuanqing lifted his coat and "revealed" the dark protective treasure clothes inside, "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the clothes given to the minister by His Royal Highness the King of Jin, the eunuch's knife, the minister would definitely be unable to escape death." ”

Yang Guang glanced at the treasure clothes, he knew about this dress, it was given to the King of Jin, and saw that there was actually a "hole" pierced on it, which was enough to show the sharpness of the dagger.

Yang Guang nodded, and his testimony was correct, indicating that everything that happened was true, so why did King Qi kill Yang Yuanqing?

At this time, a report came from outside, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qi has arrived." ”

"Let him in!"

Yang Yong, the king of Qi, hurriedly walked in, he was very nervous, the "guard" had already told him what had happened, and the eunuch Li Yi he sent to kill Yang Yuanqing was violently "exposed", but Yang Yong still had a trace of luck in his heart, Li Yi was dead, and there was no proof of death.

"Son-in-law, see father!"

Yang Guang also likes this second son who is like himself very much, but he does not dote on his son like Empress Xiao, he is a father, he cares about his son from the other side, he will invite the best master for his two sons, cultivate their knowledge, and shape their morality.

Moreover, Yang Guang has been in charge of the south for a long time, and he is busy with affairs, so he has no time to stay with his sons, and he does not know much about the details of the growth of his two sons.

"Yan'er, I ask you, why did you send someone to assassinate General Yang under the guise of the queen mother's order?"

Yang Xuan was stunned, with an innocent face, "Father, this ..... Where does this start? Erchen did not send anyone to kill General Yang. ”

Yang Jun flatly denied that Li Yi was dead, as long as he resolutely refused to admit it, his father had no way to take him, Yang Jun's attitude made Yang Guang a little unhappy, this was already an obvious thing, his son actually had to deny it, he threw the nameplate heavily in front of Yang Jun, and said coldly: "This murderous eunuch is a person from the Qi Palace, how do you explain it?" ”

"Father, the son doesn't know, I really don't know about it!"

Yang Yun was also anxious, he knelt down and kowtowed and cried: "This Li Yi is not a close 'servant' of Erchen, he is just an ordinary 'servant' of the Qi Palace, Erchen didn't bring him to the banquet at all, this may be someone 'fornicating' with him, pretending to be the name of Erchen, framing Erchen, Father Emperor, Erchen really doesn't have it!" ”

Yang Yun repeated his old tricks again, tears rained down, but what he faced was not the soft-hearted and doting queen mother, but the "shrewd" mind of the Great Sui Emperor, Yang Guang immediately heard Yang Jun's flaws, just now the nameplate rolled down to the ground, it was the Qi Wangfu side up, the name side down, from Yang Jun came in to the present, the name Li Yi was not mentioned from beginning to end, so how did he know that Li Yi went to kill Yang Yuanqing? Isn't it clear that he sent it?

Yang Guang sneered slightly, "Really? Who said that Li Yi went to kill General Yang, how do you know that it was Li Yi, did I say it? Did the guard tell you? ”

"This ......."

Yang Jun opened his mouth and stammered, he looked at the nameplate on the ground, only the three words of Qi Wangfu were on it, yes! How did he know it was Li Yi?

He suddenly felt a twist in his heart, and asked for his "sex" to die to the end, "Father, it was the 'waiter' guard who told me just now that there was a eunuch in my house who assassinated General Yang, and I was in a hurry, and immediately asked my subordinate 'guard' which eunuch it was?" Some people said that they had seen Li Yi in the house, and the sons thought it was him, the father, and the sons had preconceived ideas and thought it was Li Yi. ”

Although this statement is clumsy, it can barely be prevaricated, which makes Xiao Hou, who has been worrying about her heart next to her, slightly relieved, she quietly glanced at her husband, in fact, according to her thoughts, they are all her own sons, why bother to be so serious? first appease Yang Yuanqing, and then use the excuse to track down the murderer behind the scenes, and in the end, it will be resolved, won't this matter be solved?

Yang Guang's face changed several times, he didn't say a word, he seemed to be thinking about something, the inner hall was silent, and the atmosphere became very tense.

Yang Yuanqing didn't speak, he knew very well in his heart that this was actually a family conflict, and as an outsider, it was best for him to avoid respecting him.

At this moment, the "waiter" guard reported at the "gate", "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Jin asks to see you!" ”

"Announce him in!" Yang Guang immediately ordered.

Empress Xiao persuaded beside him: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with Zhao'er, it's best not to implicate him." ”

Empress Xiao didn't want the family conflict to expand, and her two sons were involved in this matter, so it would be a bit difficult to make a big thing small.

Yang Guang had his own thoughts, and he shook his head, "I know this matter in my heart. ”

Yang Zhao's "fat" and fat figure appeared at the entrance of the hall "door", he slowly walked into the hall and knelt on the ground, "The son sees the father and the emperor, and the queen mother!" ”

"Zhao'er, get up!"

Yang Guang ordered the eldest son to move a soft pier left and right, and then asked him, "Do you have something wrong?" ”

Yang Zhao sat down on the soft pier, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said: "Just now, Erchen heard that there was a case of assassinating General Yang, and Erchen knew a little about this matter, so he came to report to his father." ”

"What do you know?"

"Back to my father, General Yang was at Erchen's place, Erchen gave him a treasure robe, that is, the one of the Dugu family, just at this time, the queen mother sent someone to announce General Yang, and the son believed it was true, let General Yang go, and soon General Yang ran back and said that the eunuch who announced him was an assassin, and Erchen was a little strange, how could the person sent by the queen mother assassinate General Yang? At this time, the person sent by the queen mother arrived, and there was a letter from the queen mother, this is the real person sent by the queen mother, and the son found a problem, when the eunuch reported the letter just now, there was no letter, why did the informant think that he was a person sent by the queen mother? After the retainer's investigation, he discovered a shocking secret. ”

"Zhao'er, what's the secret?" Even Empress Xiao couldn't hold her breath anymore.

"Zhao'er, what did you find?" Yang Guang also asked.

Yang Zhao glanced at Yang Xuan, whose face suddenly turned pale, and said, "Please allow your father to allow your son to order a person to come in, just outside the palace." ”

"Yes! Declare him in. ”

In a moment, several "attendants" brought a eunuch in his thirties into the inner hall, and when the eunuch came in, he fell to his knees, trembling all over, and did not dare to say a word.

"Zhao'er, who is this person?" Yang Guang asked suspiciously.

"Father, he is the one who reported the assassin eunuch, he did not verify the identity of the person, which led to General Yang being almost killed, he said that he was derelict in his duties, Erchen felt a little strange, such a basic rule, he stayed by Erchen's side for ten years, how could he make such a low-level mistake? Erchen sent someone to search his room, and found a secret that shocked Erchen, he had been bought by his second brother. ”

"You talk nonsense!"

Yang Yan suddenly roared hysterically, and he finally broke out in annoyance, "I didn't, I didn't buy anyone, no!" ”

He pointed at the eunuch and roared, "You say, did I buy you? ”

The eunuch bowed his head deeply and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness..... Gave me gold. ”

"Nonsense!"

Yang Xuan's eyes burst out with murderous intent, he suddenly pulled out a dagger from his boot and pounced on the eunuch, "I slaughtered you 'bastard'!" ”

The sudden change made the inner hall exclaim, to meet the emperor, only the direct royal family does not need to search his body, but no one thought that the king of Qi actually had a dagger on his body, and several "attendant" guards wanted to pounce on it, but it was too late, just when Yang Xuan pounced on Yang Yuanqing's side, he was hugged by Yang Yuanqing and took his dagger down.

Yang Mian suddenly came to his senses, and his heart was suddenly terrified, Yang Guangtie walked in front of him with a blushing face, and raised his hand to slap Yang Mian hard, knocking Yang Mian to the ground.

"Rebel, dare to kill in front of me!"

Yang Yun fell to the ground trembling, Yang Guang walked up to Yang Zhao again, and asked coldly: "In addition to human witnesses, are there any other evidence?" ”

Yang Zhao took out a few notes from his arms, "This was found in this eunuch's room, it was an order written to him by the second brother, and it was originally for him to burn, but he secretly kept it." ”

Yang Guang opened it and looked at it, and his angry gaze "shot" at Yang Yong, his teeth clenched.

Yang Jun was completely stunned, his eyes "revealed" the "color" of fear, he suddenly cried loudly, knelt on the ground, and his head banged, "Father, the son is guilty, the son should not deceive the father, the son should die!" Son's son should be damned! ”

He suddenly knelt down in front of his mother again, hugged his mother's "legs" and cried: "Mother, the child is guilty, save the child!" ”

"So, you admit that you assassinated yourself?"

Empress Xiao's eyes flashed with tears, "Actually, it's just a trivial matter, why do you have to hate General Yang to the extent of killing General Yang?" Go and make amends to General Yang! ”

Yang Xuan turned around and kowtowed to Yang Yuanqing to apologize, "General Yang, I shouldn't be jealous that you got my father's sword, it's because I have a narrow heart, I apologize to you!" ”

At this time, everyone's eyes were looking at Yang Yuanqing, including Yang Guang, who was waiting for his attitude, Yang Yuanqing glanced at Yang Zhao, and saw a trace of praying in his eyes, he understood what Yang Zhao was praying for?

Slowly, Yang Yuanqing sighed and said: "I'm just a courtier, how dare I hold a grudge against Your Highness, I hope that sixty years later, I can still accompany Your Highness to hunt in the suburbs." ”

No one understood the meaning of Yang Yuanqing's words, only Yang Guang understood, his heart was like being hit hard by a hammer, he suddenly felt tired, turned around and slowly walked to the window, for a long time, he sighed, waved his hand back, "You all stand down!" I want to be alone and quiet. ”

........

About Yang Jun, Lao Gao explained a little, judging from the records of Zizhi Tongjian, he is indeed such a person, after Yang Zhao's death, he is Yang Guang's only son, and he belongs to the East Palace, but what he did made him unable to even be the king of Qi in the end, I know that there are still a few chapters of the alliance leader's debts that have not been repaid, but the body is really not good, the liver hurts badly, Rong Lao Gao gasped, repaid the debt a few days later, tomorrow's third watch, everyone vote for me a few recommendation votes!
