Chapter 589: Fermentation (I)
Han Jian wanted to take people away, and the people in the Beiwangfu present dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, this is Luoyang not Beichuan, and the rules naturally must follow the rules of the Dongwangfu, that is, Li Yu was killed in such a crowd, and the murderer still has to be "at large".
In addition to Li Yu, there are several high-ranking officials in the Beiwang Mansion, and they are already thinking about how to put pressure on the imperial court and let the imperial court coerce the Dongwang Mansion to punish the murderer, but no matter what, they can't go back to Beichuan City for the time being.
"Carry the body away, too." Han Jian saw that Fang Shaoyan had been dragged downstairs, glanced at the corpse of Li Yu lying on the ground, and commanded.
"It seems inappropriate for the East King to do this, and even the body has to be taken away?" The people of the Northern Palace's Mansion immediately objected again.
This time he spoke differently than before, and he was also a person from the Beiwang Mansion who was afraid of being retaliated against afterwards, so he didn't always find someone to come forward to refute Han Jian's opinion. In this way, there are many people, and it is difficult for the East King to remember who is who.
Han Jian narrowed his eyes and said, "In the case of murder in Luoyang, if you don't even bring the body back to the Tingwei Mansion, what kind of system will it become?" Rest assured, after the autopsy, the person will be returned, and you remember to come and collect the person. ”
The faces of the people in the North Palace's Mansion were like ashes.
Li Yu's death can be said to be indisputable, he was stabbed to death, so many people were present, and it was a fool's dream that the murderer wanted to escape the crime. Now that Li Yu is dead, he can't live in peace, and the body has to be pulled away for "testing", whether the body can be returned is still a problem, and if it is really returned, I am afraid that it will be a stump and a broken arm.
"King Dong, do you want to take away these certificates from us?" An official from the Northern Palace's Mansion came out and said dissatisfied.
Han Jian nodded and said, "This mention is very polite, since it is a homicide case, how can there be a reason not to take the witnesses away?" ”
Others cursed in their hearts, isn't this asking for their own suffering?
Han Jian smiled lightly and continued, "But you are a guest from a foreign land. It may be a little restrained to live in the Tingwei Mansion, so why don't you all go back to the post house, and this king will send someone to protect you, lest someone behind the murderer wants to kill people and destroy the evidence of the crime. ”
As soon as Han Jian said this, although the people present were also relieved, thinking that they didn't have to enter the Tingwei Mansion to be imprisoned. Finally, there is still a bit of freedom. But it was still to be monitored, and it was difficult to spread the news to the Beiwangfu at that time.
"Someone, escort these witnesses back to the inn."
After Han Jian finished speaking, the banquet was completely over, and whether they were full or not, they had to be "escorted" back to the post house.
When Han Jian went out, the rain outside seemed to be very sensible, because the Huisheng Restaurant was very lively, and there was a big banquet and officers and soldiers coming and going. So that many people walked out of the door to take a look, and when they saw many people coming out of the Huisheng Restaurant, all of them were disgraced, and they were carrying a corpse, only then did they know that there were dead people inside.
There was a lot of discussion among the people, but Han Jian didn't have the heart to care about this. He didn't send people to stop the people from watching, but also to let these people spread the news, and he would also make people add fuel and vinegar to break the news. Let people know that it was Li Yu who died, and how people died. The North Wangfu placed the East Wangfu on the gift. This time, Han Jian was just a courtesy.
"Young boy, the palace sent someone to inquire about what happened." As soon as Han Jian arrived at the Tingwei Mansion, a guard came over to pay his respects.
Han Jian nodded, and said in his heart that it was impossible for the imperial court not to send someone over to keep an eye on every move of the Northern Palace, and Li Yu died. The news will be transmitted to the palace, and with Yang Rui's attention to the intelligence system, it is impossible to wait for him to tell him what happened.
"Send someone to protect the murderer. Wait for the king to come back and dispose of it. Han Jian commanded.
"Yes, young boy." The guards commanded.
Han Jian rushed to the direction of the palace non-stop, Li Yu's death is a first-class event in the current situation. After all, Li Yu came to Luoyang to negotiate peace on behalf of the Northern Prince's Mansion. Now, as soon as the results of the peace negotiations come out, people will die, and the question of whether the peace talks are effective will also be brought up.
When Han Jian entered the palace, it was not yet the time of the last watch, and at this time, there was no excitement at the entrance of the palace, so Yang Rui sent someone to summon Lin Ke and others to the palace to discuss countermeasures, and it was impossible for people to arrive so early.
Entering the palace gate, Han Jian went directly to the direction of Ye'an Pavilion, and before arriving at Ye'an Pavilion, Yang Rui had just come from the dormitory, looking in a hurry, obviously just packed up.
"Go in and talk." Yang Rui glanced at Han Jian and said to Han Jian.
Yang Rui entered the door first, Han Jian followed, and after Han Jian entered the door, Yang Rui explained to the little eunuch and the palace maid outside, not allowing others to approach the door, which made Han Jian close the door. There are only two of them in the Ye'an Pavilion.
"What the hell is going on? How did Li Yu die? Yang Rui didn't talk nonsense, he didn't even sit down, so he asked directly.
"Oh, I don't know, I heard that he was killed." Han Jian said.
Yang Rui looked at Han Jian and said, "It's easy to say, someone killed someone, who killed it?" Xu Fang's? She had no one to instruct her, she dared to kill Li Yu, was she impatient? Think no one can cure her when she returns to Beichuan? ”
Faced with Yang Rui's series of questions, Han Jian chose to avoid answering. Anyway, this kind of thing is well known, and Yang Rui may have instructed him to complain when he asked.
"Didn't Your Majesty wait for him to die a long time ago?" Han Jian asked rhetorically.
Yang Rui sighed, tilted his head to the side, as if he was sulking, and finally said: "Even if you die, don't die in Luoyang, this is good, so many things before were done in vain?" It's a peace negotiation and a withdrawal from the army, don't say that this is all deliberately arranged by you. ”
Han Jian didn't answer, and sat down on the chair next to him, in front of Yang Rui, he didn't need to be respectful. It is only in front of outsiders that he will make some respectful attitudes so as not to cause misunderstanding among outsiders.
Han Jian and Yang Rui sat on their chairs respectively, facing each other but not speaking. Yang Rui was waiting for Han Jian's answer, but Han Jian deliberately didn't say anything.
The palace was quiet at night, and then the sound of boots treading water could already be heard outside, and it wasn't just one person who arrived. Presumably, Yang Rui had already sent someone to notify Lin Ke and others to enter the palace in advance.
Han Jian got up from his seat.
Yang Rui still sat upright, looked at Han Jian and said, "If the matter is not clear, I don't want to see people outside." You said it yourself, husband and wife should be honest, everything happened, and you still want to continue to hide it? ”
Since Yang Rui said so, Han Jian also knew that it was his fault to continue pretending to be confused.
"I arranged for Xu Fang's clan to kill Li Yu." Han Jian said admittedly.
Yang Rui suddenly smiled as if he had heard a joke: "What is the identity of the Xu Fang clan?" Can you choreograph her to move? ”
"Do you want to say that this was originally a detailed work that you arranged to go to the Northern Palace, and later betrayed and was used by the people of the Northern Palace?"
Only then did Yang Rui know that Han Jian had investigated the matter very clearly, and nodded: "Indeed, she was married to Beichuan at the beginning, but it was also forced by the situation. ”
"I don't need to explain anything, I want to say that if you want people to kill, you don't have to be lured by profit, you can also coerce each other." Han Jian said, "I tied up her son, and told her all the things that Li Yu did to be sorry for her." ”
Yang Rui sighed and said: "Then you have been prepared, and I wonder why you don't care about the gift-giving, it turns out that you have been prepared for a long time." Come to think of it, you use more means than those traitors. ”
Han Jian really couldn't tell if Yang Rui was praising him or hurting him.
Yang Rui raised his head and said, "Will the matter of peace still work?" Now that the city is full of wind and rain, the Beiwangfu side will not give up. ”
"Then Your Majesty thinks that now the Northern Palace, does it choose to care about Li Yu's death, or choose to negotiate and withdraw from the army?" Han Jian asked rhetorically.
Yang Rui was silent for a moment, this is obvious, Li Yu has completed his mission, and if he dies, he will die. The Beiwangfu side is now under pressure from both the imperial court and the Xianbei people, so it is natural that Li Yu's death will not be pursued for the time being, and the imperial court can withdraw its troops smoothly.
Yang Rui said angrily: "Then ask you in turn, do you want to withdraw from the army?" ”
Han Jian said: "Let's look back." ”
Yang Rui gave Han Jian a blank look, but thinking that Han Jian killed Li Yu to clear up the misunderstanding between the two, he was also a little more grateful to Han Jian. After the start of the Cold War, there must always be someone who takes a step now, she has been biting the bullet without compromise, or Han Jian is taking this step, which also makes the entanglement in her heart let go a little.
Subsequently, Yang Rui summoned Lin Ke and others into the hall to discuss countermeasures.
Lin Ke and the others naturally knew Yang Rui's thoughts, and probably understood who Xu Fang's command was. Under Yang Rui's questioning, they all felt that they should continue to fight with the Beiwang Mansion and take advantage of the chaos to recover Beichuan City, so as not to cause any further trouble.
Yang Rui kept nodding, but didn't reply much. His eyes often fell on Han Jian, and Han Jian remained silent.
Yang Rui felt that Han Jian instructed Xu Fang's clan to kill Li Yu, and he still had no intention of continuing the war, and it seemed that the negotiation and withdrawal of troops was already a sure thing.
"Dongwang, Li Yu's death, someone must come out to investigate, who do you think is more appropriate to be in charge of this case?" Yang Rui finally looked at Han Jian and asked.
Han Jian sighed in his heart, knowing that it was his, he had to send someone out to investigate, and in the end, there would be such a result?
"This kind of thing should still be decided by His Majesty." Han Jian said.
"That'...... Lin Shilang is in charge of this matter. Lin Shilang, you may be able to do it? Yang Rui looked at Lin Ke and said.
Lin Ke felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders, and his face was also very embarrassed.
"陛xià...... The old minister is not very familiar with the affairs of the prison, so it is better to ...... It is better for the East King to send someone to investigate the case. Lin Ke rarely said anything about the chain in front of Yang Rui, but this time he still chose to avoid it.
Yang Rui frowned and said, "Push three and four, I will let you do it." You don't have to worry about Shangshutai's affairs for now, if the case is not investigated, just wait to pack up the covers and go back to your hometown! (To be continued......)
