Retaliation (5)
Emperor Cheng Ji asked the people of the Yan family to continue to secretly investigate Ning Yanyue's matter; Since Mrs. Yan asserted that someone was guiding her, let the people of the Yan family investigate this matter, otherwise he would not be at ease if it was handed over to others.
Yan Fan, the son of the Duke of Zhenguo, took over the matter, and the mother of the Ning family entered Beijing to meet the Duchess of Zhenguo.
The housemother of the Ning family asked her young son to marry the twelve daughters of the Yan family, so as to merge the two families. After considering it, the Duchess of Zhenguo agreed to this family business.
Large families all pursue the prosperity of their children, not only because they have many sons and grandchildren, but also because they can marry the big family or win over their subordinates through the affairs of their children, so as to form an intertwined and prosperous interest relationship.
Once the Ning family married their own girl to the in-laws of the Chu family, and now they are married to the Yan family, this kind of behavior is actually very incomprehensible.
After that, Yan Fan entered the palace to face the saint, saying that there were palace people from Yong'an around Mrs. Yan; The implication is that the person who induces Mrs. Yan behind her back may be the Yong'an secret guard.
Because Yan Fan was born late, the Yongan Secret Guard had already escaped from the world in Yong'an at that time, so his understanding of the Yong'an Secret Guard came from his father's story.
And this time, he was also ordered by his father Zhen Guogong to push the matter to Yong'an Secret Guard.
According to Zhen Guogong, they can use this incident as the cause to take the opportunity to get rid of the Yongan Secret Guard completely, otherwise as long as the Yongan Secret Guard exists for a day, they will have to be constrained by the Yan family's lineage all the time, as long as the Yongan Secret Guard no longer exists, then maybe many things can start again.
And the Ning family chose to marry the Zhenguo Mansion at this time, just to deal with the Yong'an Secret Guard with the Zhenguo Prince.
The Ning family wanted to do something, but the presence of the Yong'an Secret Guard would hinder them from doing so.
Now the court is the home of the Yan and Chu families, and the Ning family used to be related to the Chu family, but the only bad thing is that Chu Ning, the master of the Yong'an Secret Guard, was born in the Chu clan of Huizhou, and the Chu family may not be willing to act with them; Therefore, the Ning family could only abandon the Chu family and marry the Yan family, and bring the Yan family back together.
For this purpose, Yan Fan was ordered by his father to come out to report to Emperor Chengji.
"Yong'an?" Emperor Cheng Ji was a little puzzled when he heard him say this.
"Yes. Just after Miss Ning hanged herself, Yang Zhangyan, who was beside Mrs. Yan, left the palace because her mother was seriously ill; The minister went to check Yang Zhangyan and found that Yang Zhangyan was not from Anyang, and later found out that her identity was also fake, in fact, she was from Yong'an. Yan Fan replied to Emperor Cheng Ji according to what his father taught him, and presented a confession, "We have secretly taken down Yang Zhangyan, this is her confession; Now that Yang Zhangyan has been imprisoned, can His Majesty interrogate her personally? ”
Emperor Cheng Ji hurriedly read the confession, then frowned and pressed the confession on the case; After thinking about it, he asked, "If that woman is a secret guard of Yong'an, how can you catch her?" If you alarm the Eternal Guard, do you know what the consequences will be? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty of capital crimes." Yan Fan hurriedly kowtowed and pleaded guilty, and then said, "The minister didn't dare to confront the Yong'an secret guard, so he only took the opportunity to arrest Yang Zhangyan when she was alone." ”
"I'm going to take a look." Emperor Chengji said.
Hearing Emperor Cheng Ji say this, Yan Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Yang Zhangyan's family has been pinched by the Zhenguo Mansion, and what Yang Zhangyan will say in front of Emperor Chengji is in their calculations.
And Yang Zhangyan's confession said that the Yongan secret guard plotted against him, and the Yongan secret guard and Beihu also colluded together, and wanted to control the battle for the throne of the princes.
The things involved in this confession are all valued by Emperor Chengji, so Emperor Chengji should make a move on Yong'an's secret guard.
In the past, Xia Dian and the current Yan family Ning family both wanted to get rid of the dangerous Yong'an secret guards, although the purpose was different. Now Xia Dan has been depressed because of Charlotte's mother and daughter, and he is not even very enthusiastic about the affairs of the court, and he has the intention of dismissing me from all things in the world; And now the Ning family is also more ruthless than Xia Dan, as long as they can get rid of the Yong'an secret guard who may come back at any time to hinder their plan before they get into trouble, as for what means are used, they don't care.
Emperor Cheng Ji personally interrogated Yang Zhangyan, and he already had answers to some things in his heart.
It's just a Yongan secret guard······
As Xia Xiang knew, in fact, Emperor Cheng Ji had always had a very strange affection for the Yongan Secret Guard, so even though he always knew how dangerous the Yongan Secret Guard was, he still let it go. Like many people in the previous dynasty, Emperor Cheng Ji used to be friends with the master of the Yong'an Secret Guard, especially Chu Ning, the head of the South Division, and Song Fu, the master of the West Division, who had a good relationship at that time.
But more than 20 years have passed, and now he should make a break for the heir he has chosen.
As for the Yongan Secret Guard, this outcome will be decided by the heavens.
After Emperor Chengji pondered, he summoned Xie Lan, the king of Song, and ordered him to lead 5,000 men and horses to infiltrate Yong'an to clear the Yong'an secret guards.
According to Yang Zhangyan's confession, Yong'an Secret Guard tried to sway the princes' battle for the throne, Emperor Cheng Ji thought about it and felt that this might have something to do with Xie Lan.
Xie Lan suddenly heard Emperor Cheng Ji say this, and was obviously stunned for a moment, and he already knew that it was not good; He had to take the order first, thinking that after leaving the palace, he had to tell Xuan Jinhuan about this matter quickly, what should they do now?
"Yun Ci, you don't want to live up to my expectations of you." Emperor Cheng Ji said meaningfully.
"The sons will do their best." Xie Lan was afraid that Emperor Cheng Ji would see his thoughts, so he hurriedly knocked on the leader's order.
"I believe in you." In this way, Emperor Cheng Ji nodded with satisfaction, patted Xie Lan's shoulder and said.
Xie Lan took away the complexity in his eyes and retired in a deep voice; Emperor Cheng Ji only said that this operation must be carried out in secret, let him set off as soon as possible, and the sooner he starts, the less likely it is to leak the news.
After leaving the palace, Xie Lan originally wanted to go directly to Yunyan Pavilion to find Xuan Jinhuan and talk about it, but he was afraid that his every move would be seen by Emperor Chengji's people at this time, so he returned to the mansion first, he wrote a letter to Xu Le, and asked him to go to Yunyan Pavilion to hand over the letter to Xuan Jinhuan, remember to prevent being followed.
Xu Le knew that the matter was serious, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly sent a letter over.
In fact, because Xie Lan often went to Yunyan Pavilion, someone in the royal capital had already come to check Yunyan Pavilion; But no matter how they secretly investigated, there was no way to connect Yunyan Pavilion with Yong'an Secret Guard, but some people said that the female shopkeeper of Yunyan Pavilion was a beautiful young girl, and it was very likely that she was King Song's confidante.
Xuan Jinhuan's reputation was completely killed.
But no one was able to find out Xu Zhao's true origin and background at the beginning, and now no one will be able to find out Xuan Jinhuan's origin with great powers.
