Chapter 924: It's Time to Lift the Veil

Under the viewing platform.

Yang Shen was still waiting for Huang Zan and Zhang Xuan to show up, and have a good debate with the two about the Great Rites, he had integrated a whole Hanlin team, both in terms of momentum and sound, overshadowed Huang and Zhang, but he never got any news that the two would appear in the debate.

First, I heard that the two of them went to the back tent, which is the tent where ordinary scholars discussed the ceremony, and then I heard that it was done over there. "Why do you know how to do it?"

When Yang Shen heard the news, he immediately wanted to bring someone over.

Yu Chengxun came over to deliver the news, and grabbed Yang Shen: "Yongxiu, the scene is chaotic at this time, you don't know what the result will be if you go, it's better not to mix."

Yang Shen raised his eyebrows: "What, are you afraid of being beaten?"

Yu Chengxun sighed: "It is precisely because I am not afraid that there may be big things." Yang Shen was stunned.

Then he roughly understood what Yu Chengxun meant.

Needless to say, the number of people who hold the mainstream view of "succession and succession" is far greater than that of the other side, so it goes without saying that the fight here will be one-sided in terms of the number of people on both sides, and Huang Huang and Zhang Zhang happened to be on the scene at this time······ If the two of them were beaten by ordinary readers......

That's not going to end well.

Originally, it was reasonable, and public opinion was very supportive, but when he injured the other party, the justified became unreasonable, and the bystanders who didn't know what was going on would naturally stand on the side of the "victim".

And if he Yang Shen went, he would be held accountable when he turned around······ This is almost an inevitable thing, the emperor will definitely order a thorough investigation, and when Yang Shen is involved, will someone detain the basin and say that he instructed the beating of people? After all, he has mobilized many young Hanlin, prisoners and scholars, and has become an opinion leader.

As he was talking, Hanlin Scholar Feng Xi came over, and when he saw Yang Shen, he immediately glanced at him.

Yang Shen willingly followed Feng Xi to the side, and Feng Xi saw that there was no one left and right and whispered: "Your Majesty has returned to the city!" Yang Shen said, "Your Majesty knows about the fight?"

Feng Xi said, "Yongxiu, you are a smart person, you should understand the cause of this dispute, right?"

Yang Shen was quite annoyed, it was originally a reasonable place, and he also openly debated, but it only took half a day before it turned into beating people? "If Your Majesty's purpose was to do this from the beginning, is it too shady to act?"

Yang Shen lashed out unceremoniously.

Feng Xi frowned, in his opinion, Yang Shen is becoming more and more disagreeable, you actually scolded the emperor directly? I'm a Hanlin scholar, it doesn't matter if you slander the king, don't pull me in, okay?

"Yongxiu, don't come forward again today, it's for your own good, now everyone knows that there are too many people on your side, and among the soldiers who beat people before, there are also people who were personally recruited by you, or have inextricable connections with you, I have prepared a carriage for you here, and you go back to the city immediately."

Feng Xi wanted to keep Yang Shen's posture.

Yang Shen waved his hand and said, "I know the proportions, I won't mess around, and I won't bother with returning to the city." rejected Feng Xi's kindness in person.

Everything is that Yang Shen feels that Feng Xi also belongs to the compromise faction, and when he looks at the other party's fearful appearance, he knows that Feng Xi will not firmly stand on his side in major matters, and there is a burst of disdain in his heart, and his tone is naturally a little rushed.

.....

The soldiers did not fight for a long time, and they were soon suppressed by the brocade guards who maintained order, and then counted the injuries on both sides, but it was the "successor to the heir" - the party was more seriously injured.

Because the other side is clearly prepared.

And they have a certain martial arts foundation in picking up and beating people, such as Jiang Rong and Sun Ru, although they took the lead in making trouble, they were soon evacuated by Jinyiwei protectively, but their "heroic appearance" at the scene was still captured by some people.

Luan, who was returning to the city, stopped after entering the Desheng Gate.

Zhao Jian, the new secretary of the Criminal Department, boarded Luan's car and reported to Zhu Si about the brawl outside the city.

Zhu Si's face was full of displeasure, and he frowned and asked, "I just let the scholar participate in the ceremony, why did I make a move?" Can the first evil be caught?"

Zhao Jian was very embarrassed, because at that time, it was a group of inconspicuous scholars discussing politics in the tent, and the officials were not

In it, who knows how the conflict started? It was so chaotic afterwards that he didn't go to the scene to investigate in person, and after only getting some sporadic news, he hurried to the emperor to play a tribute.

"Your Majesty, due to the chaos caused by the incident, it is impossible to find the person who did it first." Zhao Jianming said.

This kind of fight due to disagreement is relatively common among scholars.

It's just that the lack of preparedness is blamed, who knew that the group of scholars finally managed to hold a political meeting, and they actually dared to do it in front of the people in the brocade guard? I'm really not afraid of death.

Zhu Si shouted coldly: "Strict investigation!" "Yes."

Zhao Jian was very embarrassed.

As the secretary of the Criminal Department, I came to tell the emperor that this is a public matter, and the emperor's sentence of "strict investigation" is easy to say, but how to check specifically? More importantly, who will check?

Zhu Sidao: "Who should the Criminal Department send to investigate the case now? Let Zhu Jingdao go." The emperor's self-question and self-answer made Zhao Jian stunned.

Zhao Jian asked, "Your Majesty, but Zhu Hao, who has been on temporary duty in the Criminal Department, but has no real position?" "That's him!"

Zhu Sidao, "It seems that there is no one else to appoint except Zhu Jingdao····· He knew people on both sides, so he let him go and check it out to me within a certain time. Zhao Qingjia, you don't think it's okay, right?"

Zhao Jian thought to himself, don't let me check, this feeling is good.

But which onion is Zhu Hao?

Why does the emperor seem to remember such a person in the first place? "Yes."

Zhao Jian agreed first.

Because it is not played right in the court, this kind of temporary investigation of the case, Zhao Jian will not argue with the emperor on the basis of reason, and if he wants to fight, he will wait for the next day to talk about it, anyway, the fault of this matter is not on the head of his criminal department, he is just a messenger, and he can't be asked to bear the main responsibility, right?

·····.

As soon as Yang Shen entered the city, he heard that Jinyiwei had taken down hundreds of soldiers. "With cultivation, first go to the nearest secluded place to speak."

This time, the person who came to spread the news was Ye Guizhang, Yang Shen's right-hand man.

Ye Guizhang invited Yang Shen and Yu Chengxun to a wine shop on the street, just in the corner of the first floor, Ye Guizhang explained in detail about Jinyiwei's take: "······ There are our people, and there are also people who make trouble on the other side, but I heard that there are also scholars from Anlu involved, and it is said that they have a relationship with Anlu's champion."

"An Lu Champion Gong?"

Yang Shen was stunned, what he was thinking was, how could Zhu Hao get involved in such a thing?

Yu Chengxun smiled bitterly, "Make no mistake, right? Jingdao has always been wise to protect himself, and he doesn't ask anything if he doesn't do his business, it's difficult to call him today, how can he be involved with him?"

Ye Guizhang said: "It seems that there are people he knows to make trouble among them."

Yu Chengxun was relieved and sighed lightly: "It's no wonder that he is also from An Lu, and his position is different from that of others, I am afraid that someone will deliberately involve him in this matter."

Yang Shen heard some signs that something was not right, and asked, "Why do some people think that Jingdao has something to do with this matter?"

Ye Guizhang said: "There is a person, named Sun Ru, it is said that he is Zhu Jingdao's personal disciple, someone saw him walking with Yutian Bo's son, the two appeared at the scene of the ceremony, and then they also made provocative remarks, which eventually led to a scuffle."

"Sun Ru?" Yang Shen frowned.

Regarding the people and things behind Zhu Hao, Yang Shen thought that he knew everything, but in fact, he was still confused.

While he was talking, another person came in outside, but it was Hanlin Xiu Shu Fen, and he said, "You guys are here? There was just news that the Criminal Department had come to investigate the matter of the Shizi Discussion and Brawl with Langzhong Zhu Jingdao."

"What?" Several people stood up at the same time.

Shu Fen was followed by many people from the Hanlin Academy, including the historians Yao Lai and Zhang Yanqing, as well as the editors Wang Yuanzheng, Xu Chengming, Wang Xiang, Ying Liang and others, all of whom were initiated by Yang Shen to prepare to participate in the Great Rites Meeting, and were also the main participants in the Zuo Shunmen incident in history.

Ye Guizhang said: "It seems that Jingdao is quite involved in this matter."

Yu Chengxun smiled bitterly: "The Criminal Department asked him to investigate the case, just say that he is deeply involved? Maybe it's unfair to him, right? Besides, with his official position and position in the court, what can he do in such a matter

?」

Everyone looked at the initiator Yang Shen.

Yang Shen's face was cold, because he hadn't thought in advance that Zhu Hao might have much to do with this matter, so he didn't guard against it and didn't plan to embarrass Zhu Hao, and he was bent on pulling Zhu Hao to his side.

As he was talking, a messenger from outside came over: "These are all the masters of the Hanlin Academy of the Daming Dynasty, right? Master Zhu of the Criminal Department, please come over, especially Master Yang Shen Yang."

Ye Guizhang was about to step forward to inquire, but was blocked by Yang Shen.

"Where is he?" Yang Shen asked the messenger, and he could see at a glance that the person was extraordinary, speaking humbly, but he was majestic and full of spirit, and he looked like a soldier.

"It's in the teahouse across the street, two shops away." Come humanely.

Yu Chengxun said with a smile: "Respect this kid, what kind of fame? How did he come to Deshengmen?"

Yang Shen said: "Mao Gong, you go with me to meet, the rest of the people wait here first, don't act rashly, even if someone is arrested by the Jinyi Guard for fighting, it is also to blame, what you do today is all in the mouth and not in the hands, whoever causes trouble will bear it themselves."

Although Yang Shen's words were suspected of prevaricating responsibility, what he said was more in line with the thoughts of those present.

A group of scholars with little status, because of the fight and trouble, want to let them, the backbone of the big etiquette discussion, mess up? How can it be!

......

Yang Shen took Yu Chengxun to see Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao chartered the entire teahouse at this time and entertained Yang Shen and his party alone.

Yang Shen came upstairs, saw Zhu Hao's leisurely appearance, and asked with a look of reproach in front of him, "Jingdao, why don't you go out of the city today?" Zhu Hao said, "What are you doing out of the city? Quarrel with someone, or fight with someone? I have also just learned that His Majesty has assigned me an errand to investigate the fight between the soldiers······ Hey, it looks like any nasty job can be put on my head."

Yang Shen couldn't help but ask, "I heard that one of your students actually walked with Yutian Bo's son?" Still going to the ceremony together? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Zhu Hao smiled, "I don't have to tell you everything······ Yutianbo's son, Jiang Rong, he is also my student, today I asked him to go with Sun Ru to see the world, who knew that he would be involved in disputes, ashamed, ashamed······
