Chapter 69: Repression
The power of the Song Ji family collapsed at this point, and in the summer of this year, that is, ten days after Song Ji was imprisoned, it had not rained for more than ten days, and the weather was dry and hot, especially in the afternoon, even the air seemed to be frozen and lifeless.
A carriage galloped from the west side, saw that the upper gate of Wangzan's Mansion was closed, and continued eastward to detour to the east gate of Wangzan's Mansion. The coachman jumped out of the carriage and struck the black-painted single door a few times. Hearing that someone in the courtyard responded, he returned to the carriage and helped Guo Si, who had a sad face, to get out of the carriage.
The east gate of Wang Zan's mansion is used by people to enter and exit on weekdays, these days Song Ji was imprisoned, and rumors all over the city spread that Wang Zan was about to be investigated, and the housekeeper saw that Wang Zan hid in the study for a few days after Song Ji was imprisoned, and he was afraid that the rumors would disturb the main house, so he closed the door, although this trip fueled the rumors even more, but reduced the number of family members going out, and there were some troubles left.
The black lacquered door of the Wang family opened the house, and when he saw that it was the groom of the Guo family, he hurriedly beckoned the groom and the people he supported to enter, and then closed the door. The groom explained that he came to the Yi family to know that the head of the Guo family was coming, and hurriedly told the housekeeper, who led Guo Si to Wang Zan's study, the doors and windows of the study were closed, and he couldn't imagine why it was like this in the middle of summer, and how could it be so.
"The master's family, the Guo family asks to see you."
There was no response in the study, but I heard the sound of hurried footsteps towards the door, the door opened, Wang Zan had fluffy hair, dressed casually, and his face was as haggard as Guo Si.
Wang Zan and Guo Si looked at each other, and when they saw each other's haggard appearances, they both laughed.
After laughing, Wang Zan said, "Brother Si, come in." ”
The butler and the groom retreated, and the two masters entered the study.
There is a sour smell in the study, probably the smell of Wang Zan's sweat and feet in the past few days, the degree of dry heat is no less than that outside the house, the books on the wooden floor are scattered, it seems that Wang Zan has not let his subordinates enter to clean for a long time, the haggard Guo Si doesn't seem to care, but loosens his clothes, takes off his shoes and walks with Wang Zan into the house, finds a coffee table and sits cross-legged and says without strength:
"Brother Zan also has times of sorrow?"
"Su Gong wants to put Brother Ji to death, I'm afraid it will be you and me soon, otherwise you won't need someone to help you, right?"
"Hey, I want to donate all my family resources to go back to the countryside to farm and change my old life."
"If this happens, I'm afraid my life will be gone." Wang Zan objected.
"How can you see that he just wants the gold and silver family assets that we are waiting for?" Guo Si asked in a raised voice in confusion.
"Su Gong has a contract with us, and all the doctors in the world know that if the name is not right, and you and I do not take the wealth of you, I am afraid that the people of the world will be suspicious and unjust. Even if you donate voluntarily, there are always good deeds to arrange, if you are Su Gong, can you tolerate such rumors? ”
"You mean that Su Gongding wants to find a valid reason to get rid of us?"
"Exactly."
"Then I'll have to go back and sit back." Guo Si responded.
"No, as long as you and I can suppress Su Gong, we can keep it safe for more than ten years."
"Suppress Su Gong? You and I are common people who want to suppress the royal family? I'm afraid it's a fool's dream, right? Guo Si couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
"Alas, there is nothing in the world that money can't do?" Wang Zan saw that Guo Si's reaction was a little strong, so he immediately got up and came to Guo Si, stared at Guo Si, and said word by word.
"How much money do you need, and how sure are you?" Guo Si still has doubts.
"You and I will be able to succeed in three years of income." Wang Zan responded.
"Three years of income, it will take six years to earn back, you are willing to gamble, I Guo Si will accompany you."
Before the words ended, there was a squeaky shaking sound from the window and door of the study, both of them looked at the window door, but there was no movement, and the sound started again, Wang Zan and Guo Siru saw the happy event, they were excited, and quickly got up and came to the door, opened the door and window but saw that the sky on the west side was full of dark clouds, and the cool breeze came slowly.
"Brother Si, the wind is blowing."
Half a month later, the Jiangyuan Palace Hall Su Gong and the ministers of the early dynasty. Towards the end, the third prince Cao Shilong knelt on the ground and played:
"The minister has a performance, because the matter is very important, I implore Su Gong to exempt the minister from the death penalty first."
When Su Gong heard this, he knew that the third prince Cao was not good, and there must be something important, so he agreed.
"Minister, report that General Yu colluded with spies and framed Zhongliang, resulting in a fiasco on our Dongsheng front, and Zhongliang Song Ji was unjustly imprisoned." Shi Long knelt on the ground and played.
Since Song Ji was imprisoned, no one dared to intercede for him, but today Shi Long wanted to turn the tables, and the ministers couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this, thinking that this Shi Long Mo didn't accept the huge amount of money from the Song family to work so hard.
Su Gong was even more surprised, Song Ji's imprisonment was his conspiracy, didn't Shi Long's recommendation go against him?
"The stakes are high, can you just talk about it?" Su Gong questioned.
According to the informant, the spy network established by Song Ji was leaked by Yu to the enemy, and Lailai deliberately released the news of the storage location of grain and grass to lure our army to annihilate it. After Yu got the news, he actually went out to burn a grain depot, which was contrary to common sense, and he was able to break through and get out after the ambush, which is enough to show that Yu knew in advance, and deliberately used it to defeat and frame Song Ji once, as for his safe breakthrough, it was just to provide more information for Lai. I wonder if there is a flaw in the minister's reasoning? ”
"How can absurdity be convicted by reasoning alone, Shi Long, do you have evidence?" Su Gong reprimanded, although Shi Long's reasoning was impeccable, everything Yu did was agreed between him and Han Kui, and there was no mistake in the slightest.
"The minister has evidence. Please Su Gong quickly seal off Yu's residence and arrest the man named Jia Tu, who is the spy who was planted in my Jiangyuan. He was willing to guarantee any price other than death. ”
When the ministers heard this, it was like thunder on a sunny day, they had heard that Jiang Yuan had spies, but they had never seen it, if what Shi Long said was true, it would be the most exciting incident since Jiang Yuan started the incident.
Of course, the most shocking thing is Su Gong, all along, Yu is Su Gong's henchman, if Yu is a Wandering Spy, then I, Su Gong, have already been exposed to the Wandering Monarch, thinking of this, Su Gong couldn't help but shudder. In order to seek the truth, Su Gong urgently ordered the guards to go, and asked the ministers not to leave for the time being, for fear that someone would tell him.
Although Su Gong didn't believe it in every way, he had to bow to the truth, and after being interrogated by the guards, the gang Jia Tu was really a spy planted in Jiangyuan.
But Yu was confused, he didn't know that the guy who had been cooking for him for nearly three years was actually a spy, so he had to go to prison and wait for interrogation.
Jia Tu is indeed a spy, and he is also a confused spy who has long been targeted by Sangong Cao, because he has not been able to find useful value in it, Sangong Cao has only been monitoring and has not moved.
During Jatu's interrogation, after a series of tortures, he finally revealed that the leader of Jiangyuan's spies was Yu, and then committed suicide by biting his tongue.
There was no proof of death, so Yu had to pin his hope of survival on Su Gong. On this day, Su Gong raised Yu Ping's retreat and everyone personally interrogated.
Yu saw that Su Gong was full of desire to survive, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently and said: "Su Gong, Su Gong, you know who I am, Jia Tu must have received money to frame me." ”
As a martial artist, Li Yu has never shown cowardice on weekdays, but the cowardice and pleading at this time made Su Gong feel a little bored. Su Gong got up and came to Yu and whispered to him:
"Are you an undercover agent?"
"I swear to God that if I go undercover, I will be hacked to death." Yu responded eagerly.
