Volume 1: Who Breaks Through the Void by the Stars Chapter 208 The blood is empty, and the heart is cool
This Mrs. Chen is the Mrs. Chen that Ye Chang met at the ferry before entering Chang'an, that is, the disciple of Aunt Gongsun. Ye Chang met Ji Wen and was also related to her. After she killed, she came to Beihai to surrender, Li Yong felt her desire to avenge her husband, and specially wrote to the court to pardon her innocence.
Some time ago, Li Bai came here and wrote a poem about this matter.
"What's the matter, Mrs. Chen also knows this Ye Chang?"
"But Xiu Wu Ye Chang?"
"Exactly."
"So...... This man is known to slaves. Chen Niangzi's expression changed slightly, and her eyes became cold: "I saw it once in Gyeonggi, but I never thought that it was such a treacherous villain, and the slave should have killed him at that time."
"I see, this world is really small." Li Yong smiled silently, among the people he had befriended, he really knew a lot of people with Ye Chang. He groaned slightly, and then said: "What kind of help do you need, just say, I don't know how long that traitor will stay in Bochang, and I can only last a few days to cut off the river transportation, so this matter should not be delayed, you can do it quickly." ”
"Yes"
Mrs. Chen came out in response, and Li Yong was silent in the room for a while, and then said secretly: "It's a pity"
The original purpose was to peel the skin and knock out the marrow from Ye Chang and get out more wealth, but now he can only get rid of this guy.
When Li Yong and Chen Niangzi were discussing secretly, Yuan Highway was a small hat in Tsing Yi again, covering up Ye Chang's boat
"Ye Shiyi, you are already the official body of the sixth grade"
Seeing Ye Chang, Yuan Highway was dressed in a cloak and walked away, and his heart was really envious.
He has been a eunuch for many years, and now he is only a sixth-grade, but Ye Chang is a sixth-grade. Although Ye Chang is nominally a Xiangping guard, but a military position, the distinction between civil and military affairs in the Tang Dynasty is far less obvious than in later generations, so civil officials do not dare to be too arrogant in front of military positions.
"It's just to make it easier for me to act cheaply, and I never thought it would really come in handy." Ye Chang said with a smile: "What is the sixth grade, if everything goes well, Yuan Gong, you will soon be on the sixth grade, and you can be a county Sima, and then you will be fast." ”
"You still have to rely on Eleven Lang." Yuan Highway became more and more enthusiastic.
Looking at Ye Chang, although he was not wearing an official uniform, Ye Chang in Yuan Highway's heart was no longer the same as yesterday. Thinking that he was worried that this person would cause trouble, Yuan Highway sighed a little secretly while self-respecting his own knowledge: What kind of means did this guy use to achieve this
"Yuan Gong came just in time, I want to ask Yuan Gong, is the treasury of Beihai complete now?"
After the two guests and hosts took their seats, without waiting for Yuan Highway to speak, Ye Chang asked directly.
With his understanding of Li Yong, it is impossible for this guy not to reach out to the Beihai Treasury, and Yuan Highway is thoughtful, so there should be some definite news.
"Huh...... Eleven Lang is really a celestial person, and he doesn't know anything. Yuan Highway lowered his voice: "Indeed, the treasury is half empty, and even the rice of Yicang, he has embezzled it." ”
"It's really hard to fill the crastle" Ye Chang sneered, the rice of Yicang is for the purpose of preparing for famine, and even this dare to embezzle, Li Yong's actions are too much
"At that time, many people did not know, but they only thought that this was the wind of the ancient madman." Yuan Highway also expressed disapproval.
"What kind of ancient madman, just a cannon with a mouth, it will not benefit the country or the people." Ye Chang said disdainfully: "That being the case...... Is there any evidence? ”
Yuan Highway smiled bitterly, where did he think about making enemies with his top boss before, what evidence to prepare was there, he didn't dare to hand it over at this time, reporting to Ye Changtong was already his limit, if he betrayed his boss again, his career would be affected in the future.
"No...... That's okay, naturally someone will come looking for him. Ye Chang pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "I wrote a letter, and now my people must be under Li Yong's surveillance, only rely on you, you send someone to send the letter to Daguan Garden in Luoyang South City, find someone named Jia Mao'er, and give him the letter." ”
"Huh?"
"If it weren't for you, I'd have sent someone to break through...... After all, it is not good to kill more, and it is bound to alarm Li Yong, and after beating the grass and startling the snake, the effect may not be the best. Ye Chang said as he picked up the pen.
In the past four years, as long as he has time, he has been practicing, and although he still seems to be ingenious, he is close to the level of calligraphy. Under the pen of the dragon and snake, a letter has been written, but Ye Chang did not stop writing, but immediately wrote two more letters.
He didn't avoid Yuan Highway, but Yuan Highway couldn't stick his head out to see, so he could only sit there and wait. After Ye Chang finished it, he handed over the three letters to Yuan Highway: "Yuan Gong, this one is for Jia Mao'er, let him act according to his words." These two letters, one is for Chang'an Wei Jiwen, and the other is for Jin Wujun Cao Yangzhao. You just have to have someone send these three letters to Jia Mao'er, and he will handle it himself. ”
Seeing that Yuan Highway was a little puzzled, Ye Chang smiled and said: "Ji Wen is Li Linfu's confidant, and he is the best at fabricating charges, Yang Zhao...... It's the brother of the noble concubine, and your official position is about to fall on him. ”
Yuan Highway was shocked when he heard this, and the letter in his hand almost fell.
Ji Wen's reputation, he had also heard of it, Ye Chang sent him a letter, presumably he was fabricating charges against Li Yongluo, and falling into the hands of this person was no different from falling into the hands of Li Linfu. And Yang Zhao's reputation is not obvious, Yuan Highway is still the first time to hear of it, but he knows that Lu Dao is the brother of Yang Yuhuan, the newly crowned concubine, and he immediately understands that his official position depends on Yang Yuhuan to blow the wind on the pillow.
Since it was a favor, Ye Chang came to his feet, and added: "If you entrust Li Linfu to act as an official, it is okay, but Li Xiang's political enemies are around, and I want to borrow his hand to get rid of Li Yong, so as not to damage the reputation of Yuan Gong, the only way to ask for help is to go through Yang Juncao's door." Fortunately, Yang Juncao and I also have a very good relationship, and he will definitely be able to handle this matter. ”
No matter how good the friendship is, it is indispensable to do this kind of thing, thinking that Ye Chang said that it would cost one or two hundred thousand, Yuan Highway knew that the appetite of the Yang family was not small.
Yuan Highway sent people to deliver letters, but he didn't mention it, Ye Chang sent people to the lower reaches of the Daqing River every day in the next few days, but they were all blocked, under the pretext that Li Yong suspected that Ye Chang's official position was true or false, and sent people to Beijing to inquire, but he didn't dare to let them leave before the results.
Ye Chang was not in a hurry, he stopped on the boat, trained sailors in the Daqing River every day, docked at night, and occasionally went ashore to move his muscles.
He was so cautious that Chen Niangzi, who had already arrived here, became anxious.
Although Li Yong did not urge her, he sent people to greet her every day, and Chen Niangzi knew the meaning of this.
"Every morning, I run under the water, and then go back to the boat, unless I can get on the boat, it is impossible to get close to him, if I can't get close, I have the swordsmanship of my master, and I can't stab ......."
It's even more impossible to kill hard, Chen Niangzi is just a woman after all, no matter how superb she learns swordsmanship, she lacks natural vitality. She knew very well in her heart that in a head-to-head battle, the guards around Ye Chang only needed two or three people to block her, not to mention that there was also a good and upright person
The good and straight monk is the character that her master Gongsun and Aunt are also afraid of, and this monk and Ye Chang are almost inseparable, and it is impossible to do it in front of him.
"It seems...... There's only one way."
That night, candles were lit on board. Ye Chang has always hated the night of this era, not only is there no entertainment, but the candles and torches used for lighting have a lot of black smoke, which not only smokes people's nostrils black, but also damages their eyes.
Therefore, the candles he used were the ones that were specially refined and had the least smoke.
"Eleven Lang, we can't always spend time with him here, right?" Shanzhi has been suffocating panic these days, and when he saw Ye Chang calmly writing something under the candle, he couldn't help but complain: "Since you are an official, you can really stop us by breaking through?" Their little boats, we bumped into them and burst through."
"What the third brother said is light, we will come and go here from time to time in the future, leaving that old man a scourge, after all, it will be a trouble." Ye Chang put down his pen and let out a long sigh: "On my last trip to Chang'an, I understood a truth, I should be ruthless to the enemy, and I must not show mercy if I can cut the grass and eradicate the roots." The old man just wants to make a sum of money to fill his shortfall, if a good student negotiates with me, read in Li Taibai, Du Zimei and others, I have a way to make money, share some profits with him, let him do a convenient, it is not impossible. But this old puppet just looked like a hypocrite, saying that he wanted to avenge Wei Jian...... Wei Jian is a good thing, in order to cater to the will of the gods, it has caused the people of Gyeonggi Province to complain."
Shanzhi didn't expect that his words would cause Ye Chang to complain a lot, and his eyes blinked: "So what? ”
"I just thought that these so-called Qingliu celebrities have not grown up for thousands of years, attacking this and attacking that, saying that this is a villain and that is a traitor, but in fact they are just trying to drift away by themselves. Although Li Linfu is a traitor, he can still do some things and replace these people...... Now it is these so-called celebrities with the style of the ancients, a thousand years later they will be the so-called Qingliu Party members, and 1,400 years later they will be known to the public......
After Ye Chang finished complaining, he saw Shanzhi's wide-eyed staring appearance, and laughed dumbly: "I can only talk to you about this......"
"The Sprinkle family doesn't know much about what a thousand years later, fourteen hundred years later, but, Eleven Lang, the Sprinkle family is only worried about one thing."
"Huh?"
"Li Taibai and Du Zimei you just said." Although the honest person is honest, he is transparent: "Du Zimei is okay, then Li Taibai's temperament jumps out, if he really marries this old man Li Yong, he knows that if you want to deal with the old man Li Yong, I am afraid that I will find you trouble." ”
Ye Chang could only smile bitterly, from his heart, he really didn't want to deal with Li Yong, although Li Yong was greedy, but he Ye Chang was not an honest person, and he couldn't do this imperial history, but Li Yong came to provoke him
"I don't think the same as you, although Li Taibai's temperament is jumping, but in fact, he is a person who can turn around, but Du Zimei, who knows the times, listens to Yuan Highway and said, in order to see him, Li Yong traveled hundreds of miles to meet. Now Zimei's reputation is not obvious, this is the grace of knowing the ...... I only hope that Zimei can think about it. ”
Speaking of this, Ye Chang stretched his waist: "I'm going to sleep, third brother, you go and rest by yourself." ”
"Do you want to let the second brother come?"
"No need, on the boat, you are sleeping outside again." Ye Chang shook his head with a smile.
Shanzhi walked out of the cabin, and his nose moved: "Hey, what kind of smell...... It's a little fragrant......"
He didn't think about it, he just said that it was the spice used by the ship to hide the smell of paint, and he tapped to his cabin. Not long after he entered, he heard a thunderous snoring, and Ye Chang could only faintly hear it in his cabin, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
He took off his own clothes, picked up a book and read it on the bed for a while, and was about to go to sleep, when there was a knock at the hatch.
Ye Chang frowned: "Who?" ”
"The housekeeper of Nu Nai Lang Jun called...... Please open the door. ”
There was a delicate voice outside, and the voice was like singing, and it had a strange and provocative taste. Ye Chang heard this voice, and his brows moved slightly.
"Is there such a thing?"
"Your housekeeper is knowledgeable, I'm afraid that Lang Jun will be shy, so I let the slave come alone, Lang Jun, the spring night is short, and it's cold outside, please open the door and let the slave in."
Standing outside the door was naturally Mrs. Chen.
However, at this time, Mrs. Chen, with makeup, was two or three years younger than her actual age, and she was already very beautiful, so she was even more delicate.
It's just that behind the beauty, it's a terrible guy. She was holding a tray in her hand, and under the tray was a pair of short swords, just waiting for Ye Chang to open the door and look at the wine on the tray, she was about to lift the tray and stab with her sword
She had long observed that there was a window in the cabin where Ye Chang lived, and after the assassination, she could jump out of the window and escape from the water.
"Lang Jun, please hurry up, slave...... I can't stand it. She made another flattering sound.
Then I heard a noise in the cabin, first the sound of Siso's dressing, then the sound of his shoes tapping. A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Niangzi's lips, and her eyes gradually sharpened, but at this moment, she heard Ye Chang say: "Lady's voice, why is it a little familiar, could it be the fate of the previous life?" ”
Ye Chang said very loudly, and Mrs. Chen chuckled: "Maybe that's the case, wait for the slave to see you, Lang Jun ......"
Speaking of which, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, Ye Chang gave her the impression that she was not such a frivolous person, on the contrary, she was thoughtful and steady, and she did her a small favor at the beginning......
As soon as she thought about it, she heard a click, and a sword came out of the thin wooden door of the cabin, piercing into her chest.
This sword hit the nail on the head, Chen Niangzi is no matter how good she is, and she never thought that Ye Chang, who had just made a remark to tease her, would kill the killer through the door. She only felt a sharp pain in her heart, and suddenly figured out that Ye Chang had just opened her mouth to tease, but she was actually asking her to speak again to determine her position
She screamed with anger and fear in her heart, "Traitor"
However, although she tried her best, her voice was like a gnat, and Ye Chang's sword had hit the vital point, and her life was rapidly passing with blood.
"Ah......" She only felt a lot of hatred in her heart, how could her own hidden treasures be exposed?
The door was opened at this time, and she held on to the door frame, trying to step steadily, and then saw Ye Chang standing in front of the door. Vaguely, she heard Ye Chang say: "When a certain person is a womanizer, make such a trick, Li Yong's old puppet...... Oh, it's you? ”
"Ye ......" Mrs. Chen only said one word, tried her best to throw the short sword in her hand at Ye Chang, but Ye Chang dodged and avoided it, and Mrs. Chen fell to the ground.
Soon she was plunged into permanent darkness.
