No matter how embarrassed he was, he couldn't help it, he agreed to inquire about the news for the eldest grandson brother and sister, Chen Yingliang had to give the eldest grandson brother and sister an answer anyway, and had no choice, Chen Yingliang had no choice but to return to Gao Shilian's belly in Longzheng Fang, and convey the reason for Gao Shilian's arrest to the eldest grandson brother and sister and Gao Shilian's relatives - just concealing the fact that the mastermind behind the scenes was his distant uncle Pei Yun.

I waited for a long time, but I waited for such earth-shattering news, and learned that Gao Shilian was arrested for being involved in treason, Gao Shilian's elderly mother fainted on the spot, Gao Shilian's wife Xian Yu and Gao Shilian's sister also cried loudly, crying while still having to rescue Gao's mother, the scene was a mess, miserable to the extreme, although Chen Yingliang was only an outsider, because his conscience had not been eaten up by the dog, he was also in an extremely uncomfortable mood next to him, and he was very sympathetic to the Gao family.

Sure enough, as Chen Yingliang was worried, he cried bitterly, Gao's wife Xian Yu suddenly discovered Chen Yingliang's cunzài, trotted in front of Chen Yingliang and saluted, and said with a crying voice: "Deputy Chen, you are also an official of the imperial court, and a great contributor to the pacification of Yang Xuangan's rebellion, please save my father-in-law, he is wronged, he and Hu Sizheng have a lot of dealings, but they are just ordinary friends, and there is no special friendship, my father-in-law is loyal to the court, even if he kills him, he does not dare to participate in the rebellion." I beg you to explain this to the court and save my father-in-law. ”

Xian Yu's took the lead, Gao's mother and Gao's also immediately came to Chen Yingliang's face, saluting and pretending, crying and begging Chen Yingliang to come to the rescue, Chen Yingliang was very embarrassed, and replied: "Mrs. Gao, Mrs. Gao, Mrs. Eldest Sun, it's not that the younger generation is unwilling to come to the rescue, it's that the younger generation has no choice, the younger generation is just a mere prince's right deputy internal rate, and people in the court are soft-spoken, even if the above table is played, it is difficult to send the chapter to the saint, it is really helpless." ”

"Brother, then please think of a way." The eldest grandson Wuji knelt down directly to Chen Yingliang, crying and said: "Wei Liushou and Fan Liushou both value you very much, the last time you spoke, you rescued the father and son of the Chai family from the knife of the acting king, please show mercy again, please ask them to speak for my uncle, my uncle will be safe." ”

Chen Yingliang was even more difficult, and said in frustration: "Brother Wuji, in fact, even if you didn't say so, I had already begged Wei Liushou just now, but this case is a Qin case, and the emperor personally ordered your uncle to arrest Wei Liushou, and Wei Liushou couldn't speak, and further down, this case still has to have Dali Temple and Yushitai participate in the investigation, and Wei Liushou will be even more difficult to speak, so Wei Liushou can't help your affairs." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji cried loudly, and the eldest grandson Wuji Xiao Lili behind him was also in tears, learning from his brother to kneel down to Chen Yingliang, crying: "Brother Chen, Wuji knows that you are a kind person, and I also know that your uncle's affairs make you embarrassed, but I still ask you, please save my uncle, if there is no uncle, we will not be able to live." Brother Chen, I beg you, I will definitely repay you, I will definitely repay you. ”

Chen Yingliang was even more embarrassed, scolding himself for his back, but he ran into this bad thing, he couldn't help it, and he couldn't get over it without helping, and he couldn't get over it if he didn't help, so Chen Yingliang had to say perfunctorily: "Guanyin, don't cry, don't cry in a hurry, let me think of a way, I promise you, I'll do my best." ”

Casually perfunctory, Chen Yingliang pondered for a moment and said: "That's it, I'll go back and think of a way first, and then find out about the situation of this case, you wait patiently for my news, go to visit the prison tomorrow, and ask Lord Gao in person what his plans are, and then we will come up again to save Lord Gao." Also, you must not touch the letters and documents in Lord Gao's study, the imperial court is likely to come to confiscate these things, since Lord Gao is innocent, then they can do whatever they want, but if you mess around, or destroy something privately, then Lord Gao will be even more unclear. ”

Everyone in the Gao family nodded with tears, and thanked Chen Yingliang for their kindness, Chen Yingliang was also afraid of continuing to be involved in this matter, so under the pretext that it was not early, he hurriedly said goodbye, and led Chai Qian, who had been silent beside him, out of the door, and took the carriage hired before to go home. As a result, when the coachman had just whipped the horse, the eldest grandson Xiao Luoli ran out of the door again, saluted Chen Yingliang and cried: "Brother Chen, you also know the situation of our brother and sister, uncle he is a father for Wuji, Wujian begs you again, please must be him, if your uncle can come back safely, Wuji is willing to give you a slave and a maid, and repay your great kindness for life." ”

"Guanyin, don't say that, the eldest brother promised you, he will definitely find a way to help, and he won't ask you for anything in return. Go back quickly, your grandmother is too old, you have to take care of her, don't let her have any accidents. ”

To put it mildly, Chen Yingliang finally sent his eldest grandson Xiao Luoli home, and then hurriedly urged the coachman to drive the horse away, lest the Gao family run out to stop the horse and kneel and beg, until the carriage went away, Chen Yingliang breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to secretly scold himself for pointing his back, but he happened to encounter such a bad thing. But before the matter was over, a sour voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Congratulations to Marquis Chen, you have another opportunity to gain fame and fortune, you have helped with this, and someone will promise you immediately." ”

Hearing the voice of his former fiancée, Chen Yingliang was immediately furious, and said in his heart If it weren't for you, the stinky girl, who was deliberately entangled, would Lao Tzu be able to get involved in this bad thing? Angry, Chen Yingliang simply sneered and said: "Yes, Guanyin's little sister can almost get married, if she gets her wish, Miss Chai must come to drink the wedding wine at that time." ”

Chai Qian didn't say anything, and after a while, Chai Qian suddenly said again: "Stop, I'll walk back by myself." ”

"Stop." Contemporary Chen Shimei Chen Yingliang agreed, and ordered the carriage to stop, but before the carriage was stable, Chai Qian had already swept Chen Yingliang's back with a gust of fragrant wind, and jumped off the carriage directly to the side of the road, Chen Yingliang vaguely regretted it, but he didn't want to condone Chai Qian's problem, so he immediately ordered the carriage to go straight to Yiyangfang, leaving Chai Qian to cry silently on the side of the road, in a hesitant mood.

When leaving Longzheng Fang, in front of the fang, Chen Yingliang happened to meet a team of officials who went straight to the fang, Chen Yingliang guessed that this team of officials went to Gao Shilian's house to check the evidence, but he couldn't stop it, so he could only say in his heart: "Guanyin, don't blame me, I really can't help it, this thing is done by me in the background, if I come forward, it will be self-defeating, so this matter, I can't interfere in this matter anymore." ”

………………

As Chen Yingliang analyzed, the team of officials was indeed sent by Dali Temple to raid Gao Shilian's study, but fortunately, this team of officials only searched all the letters in Gao Shilian's study, and did not confiscate the Gao family's property, nor did they arrest Gao Shilian's family, but only registered the Gao family's property and family members. But even so, it still scared the Gao family to death, and made the Gao family's daughters cry again, and at the same time, in a hurry, the eldest grandson Wuji naturally remembered his friend Li Shimin, regardless of the fact that the sky was already dark, and hurried to the government office next door to ask Li Shimin, who was a relative of the emperor, for help.

It is also the luck of the eldest grandson Wuji, because of some reasons in Yang Xuangan's case, Li Shimin's father Li Yuan has not left Daxing, and he just returned home almost at the same time, so the eldest grandson Wuji not only met his friend Li Shimin, but also directly met Li Yuan, who can speak in the court, and the eldest grandson Wuji was overjoyed, and quickly told the Li family father and son about his uncle Gao Shilian carefully, and begged the Li family father and son to rescue his uncle Gao Shilian for himself.

"Nephew, how did you find out about this?" Li Yuan was a little surprised, and said: "You still know so much, even your uncle knows about the defection of Goguryeo because of his involvement in Hu Sizheng?" This case has not yet been announced, and these inside information, the officials of Dali Temple who went to raid your study, it is impossible to know now, right? ”

"It was Chen Yingliang and Chen Youlu who helped inquire." The eldest grandson Wuji replied truthfully: "When the news of my uncle's arrest came, Chen Neishu happened to be a guest at the little nephew's house, and went to the Criminal Department with righteous assistance, and found Wei Liushou to hear the news. ”

"Chen Yingliang?" Li Yuan was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "He is a guest at your uncle's house?" Did he know your uncle? ”

"No, he's looking for a jade pendant." The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head, and then roughly told Chen Yingliang before and after he arrived at his house.

"I see, Vice President Chen is really a warm-hearted person, and Wei Liushou really loves him." Li Yuan, who suddenly came to his senses, laughed, thought about it for a while, and suddenly asked again: "So did Chen Yingliang inquire about who spoke in front of the emperor and said that your uncle and Hu Sizheng were the most friendly, and Emperor Jian ordered your uncle to be taken down for interrogation?" ”

"Nope." Eldest Sun Wuji shook his head, and then hurriedly asked, "Uncle, who is this person?" ”

"Imperial Doctor Pei Yun." Li Yuan said calmly.

"Dr. Pei?" The eldest grandson Wuji was suddenly as pale as earth - the eldest grandson Wuji is still young, and it stands to reason that he should not know the situation of the senior officials in the imperial court, but Pei Yun's fame in this regard is too great, he is notoriously ruthless and smiling, and he is also recognized as the first cool official in the dynasty, what he is best at is to convict him with words and create unjust prisons, countless court officials have died in his hands over the years, and the eldest grandson Wuji has heard these rumors from many channels no matter how young he is, and he will hear that it is Pei Yun who took action to rectify Gao Shilian, The eldest grandson Wuji really can't be frightened if he doesn't want to.

Frightened, the eldest grandson Wuji knelt down to Li Yuan with a plop, and begged with tears streaming down his face: "Uncle, please save my uncle, my uncle has the grace of reinvention for the little nephew, and the little nephew is broken to pieces, and it is difficult to repay him for his great kindness." The matter has come to this point, the little nephew can only beg the uncle to come to the rescue, and in the future, the little nephew will lead the horse to fall into the stirrup, tie the grass ring, and definitely repay the uncle's great kindness! ”

"Erlang, get up." Li Yuan waved his hand, first let his son pick up the eldest grandson Wuji, and then said: "Virtuous nephew, don't be anxious, I am friends of life and death with your deceased father, of course I will not sit idly by and ignore your affairs, but this fact is a little difficult to handle, Hu Si is a traitor and traitor to the enemy, the crime is unforgivable, your uncle is involved in his case, even I can't interfere at will, I must act cautiously." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was anxious, and hurriedly begged again: "Uncle, the little nephew knows that you are in trouble, but he still asks you to save my uncle's ......." ”

"Don't worry, I'm trying to figure it out." Li Yuan waved his hand to interrupt the pleading of the eldest grandson Wuji, and after thinking for a while, Li Yuan said: "Virtuous nephew, the bell must be tied to the bell, if you want to save your uncle, you must first go through Pei Yun's door, Pei Yun is the person who persuaded the emperor to arrest your uncle, and he is also the person responsible for investigating what your uncle is involved with Hu Sizheng, you can go through his way, he can save your uncle's life with a word, if he insists on putting your uncle to death, then even if I come forward to intercede in front of the emperor, I am afraid that I will not be able to save your uncle's life." ”

"Go through Dr. Pei's door?" The eldest grandson Wuji was dumbfounded, and cried and said, "Uncle, how can the little nephew go through Dr. Pei's door?" The little nephew has no official and no power, and he doesn't know the people of the Pei family, how can he get through his door? ”

"Silly boy, didn't God give you a good helper?" Li Yuan smiled and said: "Chen Yingliang Chen, who went to help you inquire about the news today, is a distant relative of Li Guogong Pei Hongce, and has saved Pei Hongce's life twice, Li Guogong regards him as his own nephew, Li Guogong and Pei Yun are brothers of the same clan, it stands to reason that Chen Yingliang is also Pei Yun's nephew, you go to Chen Yingliang for help, and ask him to take you to Pei Yun's door, isn't it easy?" ”

"Vice President Chen still has such a way?" The eldest grandson Wuji turned his surprise into joy, and hurriedly thanked Li Yuan again and again, and said: "Thank you uncle for your advice, the little nephew will go to ask Deputy Chen and ask him to help him go to Doctor Pei." ”

"That's right." Li Yuan nodded, smiled and said: "When the Duke of Cheshire framed Chen Yingliang like that, that kid still repaid his grievances with virtue and came forward to save the father and son of the Duke of Cheshire, since you and Chen Yingliang are like brothers and sisters, go to ask him for help, he will definitely agree, as long as Chen Yingliang said that Dr. Pei's subordinates would be merciful, and the old man would come forward to deal with your uncle again, and you will keep that your uncle can save the day and reinstate the official." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was overjoyed, and hurriedly nodded his head in agreement, and Li Yuan instructed Li Shimin next to him: "Erlang, go and get ten pearls and a pair of jade buckets to Wuji, Wuji's family is not very wealthy, Chen Yingliang has just entered the office, he has no savings, and he wants to move in front of Dr. Pei, he can't do it without a gift, so this gift will come from our family." ”

"Uncle!" The eldest grandson Wuji was so excited that he knelt down again, and cried loudly: "Uncle is very gracious, the little nephew is broken, and it is difficult to repay it." Li Yuan smiled, picked up the eldest grandson Wuji's kind words and comforted him, and urged Li Er to quickly take the gift and hand it to the eldest grandson Wuji, and sent the eldest grandson Wuji away.

As a close friend of the eldest grandson Wuji, of course Li Er had to send the eldest grandson Wuji out of the house, and when Li Er returned to Li Yuan, Li Yuan asked if the eldest grandson Wuji had left, and after getting a positive answer, Li Yuan immediately laughed out loud and said with a smile: "God help me!" God help me! was worried that he would not have a chance to separate Chen Yingliang's kid and Wen Xi Pei's family, so he sent this good opportunity to the door by himself, this time, Chen Yingliang's kid just didn't want to be used by the old man. ”

"Father, are you going to use this opportunity to separate Chen Yingliang and Wen Xi Pei's family?" Li Er asked in surprise.

"Of course, wouldn't it be a pity to miss such a great opportunity?" Li Yuan said with a smile: "I know the reason why Pei Yun rectified Gao Shilian, it is to be anxious to confess his loyalty and completely clear the suspicion brought to him by his son Pei Shuang, at this time, no matter who comes forward to act for Gao Shilian, Pei Yun will regard him as an enemy, Chen Yingliang came forward to beg him, that is to find his own death, which will inevitably anger Pei Yun, and the old man will secretly add fuel to the fire, Wenxi Pei will inevitably clear Chen Yingliang from the door and cut off contact!" ”

"What is Father going to do?" Li Er hurriedly asked again.

"Isn't that easy?" Li Yuan said with a smile: "The old man will blow the wind in front of Pei Yun tomorrow and tell him directly, his distant nephew Chen Yingliang has already promised to excuse Gao Shilian and stir up his fire first." Waiting for the eldest grandson Wuji and Chen Yingliang to send the gift to Pei Yun, regardless of whether Pei Yun accepted it or not, the old man arranged for an official to come forward and impeach Chen Yingliang for bribing the court officials on behalf of Gao Shilian, and then Wenxi Pei could only expel Chen Yingliang from the house. ”

"So ruthless?!" Li Er gasped, and admired his father's ruthlessness so much that he threw himself to the ground.

"By the way, I will also vent my sister's evil anger for your sister's family." Li Yuan finally showed some hideous fangs, and said with a sneer: "Your brother-in-law's family was cut from their position and robbed of their titles, although they did it themselves, but that Chen Yingliang kid is not a good thing!" returned to Daxing to stir up the wind and rain, and deliberately concealed his true identity all the time, inducing your brother-in-law's family to go into the middle of the scheme, dismissing the official and cutting the knight, and also causing the old man to lose face, and was reprimanded by the emperor in public, if he didn't teach this kid a lesson, wouldn't he dare to ride on our Li family to and pee in the future? ! ”

After Zheng nodded in agreement with his father's point of view, Li Er was still a little worried, so he said tentatively: "Father, what about Uncle Gao?" He is the uncle of Wuji and Guanyin, we can't sit idly by? ”

"What's the hurry? I didn't say no. Li Yuan said with a smile: "First use this matter to separate Chen Yingliang and Wen Xi Pei, and vent the evil anger for your brother-in-law's family, and then the old man will come forward to save Gao Shilian." ”

Speaking of this, Li Yuan smiled again and said: "In fact, the Gao family is also blindly nervous, Gao Shilian will not die, Gao Shilian has a deep friendship with Hu Sizheng, but there is no evidence that he actually participated in Yang Xuangan's rebellion and knew in advance that Hu Sizheng had committed treason and defected to the enemy, and now there are so many important ministers and magnates involved in Yang Xuangan's rebellion in the court, no matter how ruthless Pei Yun is, he will not dare to treat Gao Shilian's capital crime because of this, stimulating important court ministers like Laihu'er and Zheng Shanguo, the old man estimates that Gao Shilian was exiled at most, It's easy to save him. ”

"I see." Li Er breathed a sigh of relief, then hesitated, and Li Er bowed his hand to Li Yuan and said, "Father, the child has a small request, please be sure to agree to it." ”

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Li Yuan replied.

"After rescuing Gao Shilian, please ask your father to propose to him by the way, and ask him to marry his niece Guanyin to the child." Li Er blushed and said: "Actually, not long ago, Uncle Gao already had this intention, but the child did not ask for his father's consent and did not make his own decisions, taking this opportunity, the child wanted to promote this matter." ”

"No wonder my son is like this, it turns out that there is another reason." Li Yuan laughed loudly and said: "No problem, Guanyin has been seen by her father, dignified and beautiful, with a good background, and you are indeed a natural pair, and my father agrees to this family business, and when this matter is over, my father will personally ask Gao Shilian for you." ”

"The boy thanked his father." Li Er was overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Li Yuan, and the delicate face of the eldest grandson Xiao Lili also appeared in his heart, and he secretly said in his heart: "Guanyin, we are going to be together soon." ”
