Ye Yunyang came to the outside of the imperial study, lowered his voice and asked the chief eunuch: "Father-in-law, how is Your Majesty feeling?"

The old eunuch opened his mouth and said: "It's not very good, the miscellaneous family sent it in a few times, but His Majesty didn't raise his eyelids, just now the prince went in, and his face was the same as water." ”

Ye Yunyang's heart was not good, and the old eunuch continued: "You don't have to worry too much, anyway, it is a knife to stretch out and shrink your head." ”

"Huh?" Ye Yunyang's eyes widened, this is not a good word.

With a little apprehension, he walked into the door of the imperial study and saluted in the direction of the dragon book: "Minister Ye Yunyang has been summoned to come and respectfully invite Saint An." ”

"Hmph. The emperor responded in such a way.

The prince stood up, pointed to the hill in front of the dragon book case, and said, "Do you know what this is?"

Ye Yunyang blinked: "What's wrong with you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, asking such a naïve question?" Your Majesty, the prince can't be sick, didn't he take medicine today?"

The prince was angry: "You don't tear up the topic for me! These are all excerpts from you, you are so bold, you actually went to Leopard Taowei to make trouble, almost crippled the main general, and then casually threw it at Dali Temple, do you still have the royal law in your eyes?"

Ye Yunyang made an expression of no harm from humans and animals, and said, "Of course, if I didn't have Wang Fa in my eyes, I would definitely kill Cui Xinli on the spot, instead of taking him to Dali Temple." ”

"You're still reasonable!" The prince said angrily: "Father, this kid is too lawless, the son can't control it, or you should come in person." ”

Emperor Liu Qi glanced at Ye Yunyang and asked, "Looking at the mountains of twists and turns in front of you, what do you think?"

Ye Yunyang pretended to think, and after a full minute, he spoke: "I wonder very much, when did I provoke so many enemies, why didn't I have any impression at all? I feel that I am quite low-key on weekdays, I never take the initiative to cause trouble, so many people accuse me, as if I am the kind of heinous person." ”

"It's not like, it's just. The prince said very facelessly.

Ye Yunyang almost choked to death by this sentence, the emperor and the crown prince secretly glanced at each other, and the two of them showed smug looks at the same time.

It was a very happy thing for them to be able to make Ye Yunyang deflated.

"Your Majesty, Prince, don't you think this thing is strange?" he swore solemnly, but the father and son were not at all interested in his words, and made indifferent expressions together.

This made him feel like a failure, because only by showing interest could he analyze the matter in his own way and ensure that he was invincible.

He decided to let it go, it doesn't matter if you're not interested, as long as you don't plug your ears, he said to himself: "Chen Dou dares to give you two a small analogy, for example, eating apples, some people like to pick it up directly and gnaw it with their mouths, some people are used to slicing it in the fruit bowl, and some people like to squeeze juice, and even more will dry it and eat it, no matter which way to eat, the final result is the same, that is, it is eaten into the stomach." ”

The father and son pretended to hate inadvertently, but they were actually attracted to the story and wanted to know what was next.

Ye Yunyang continued: "No matter which way you eat, to put it bluntly, it's just a personal preference, and you can't hinder others regardless of other people's affairs. But one day, the person who gnaws with his mouth accuses the person who slices the slicer, saying that the other party is wrong and does not give up, what do you say is this?"

The prince blurted out: "I'm full." ”

Ye Yunyang was waiting for this sentence, he slapped his hand, looked at the mountain-like twist and turn, and said, "That's right, it's just that I'm full." ”

"Ahem, are you referring to Sang scolding Huai, accusing civil and military officials of not being involved in you?" said the emperor in a deep voice.

"Of course not, it's their job, and there's nothing wrong with it. He changed his words and said, "However, all the excerpts are about how arrogant and domineering I am, how lawless, what kind of punishment I should be punished to relieve my hatred, and so on, is this normal?"

The prince said with a dark face: "What do you want to say, just be a little bit, don't make so many twists and turns, listen to the hard work." ”

Ye Yunyang said with a straight face: "I was avenging my father, so I broke into Leopard Taowei without permission and interrogated Cui Xinli under the witness of several generals, and he also admitted on the spot that he was the culprit who murdered my father." However, these people who participated in me did not say a word about the crimes committed by Cui Xinli, but seized on my interrogation methods, and I admit that it was not legal to do so, but I can't understand why the most important result is ignored and everyone is staring at the process, is this normal? Compared with betraying colleagues and reckless disregard for human life, can lynching be the same as the abuse of lynching?"

The crown prince fell into deep thought, and the emperor still had a calm expression.

Ye Yunyang's words, although they smelled of self-justification, had to admit that his analysis was penetrating, why only he abused lynching in the eyes of hundreds of officials, but no one mentioned the crime committed by Cui Xinli.

Obviously, these people are targeting Ye Yunyang.

Just like Ye Yunyang said, he didn't dig their ancestral graves, nor did he snatch their little wives, and he didn't even fight with many people, so why was there such a big hatred?

The emperor spoke again: "How do you know that these excerpts are only aimed at you, not at Cui Xinli." ”

Ye Yunyang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Because they are piled on the ground, if there is really a fold of righteousness, it should be placed on the table." ”

The emperor smiled: "You little slippery head, how do you know that no one speaks up for you?"

"It's very simple, because I don't have a relationship with those who are officials, and for those who don't have a relationship, it's easy to fall into the trap, and it's impossible to say good things for the other party. Ye Yunyang said confidently.

The smile on the emperor's face was even bigger, and he said, "You guessed it, it is true that no one has said good things for you, not that there are no gentlemen in my court, but just like you said, they are not familiar with you, so how can they say good things for you." ”

The prince then said, "Yun Yang, you have always been a smart person, and you are really not very smart in this matter. When you hear the cause of your father's death from the ghost-faced horse, first of all, you should doubt whether the information is accurate, who is the ghost-faced horse, our number one enemy; secondly, even if you believe his words, you should return to the imperial capital to find evidence, instead of going directly to Leopard Taowei to find Cui Xinli, let alone torture to extract a confession, what can he do if he admits it on the spot, don't you know that there is a word called torture into a confession, he can retract his confession. ”

Ye Yunyang raised his eyebrows and said, "Listen to His Royal Highness the Prince, that guy has already retracted his confession?"

The prince nodded: "Yes, not long after you threw him into Dali Temple, he began to shout grievances, and then retracted his confession." ”

Ye Yunyang immediately asked again: "Before that, someone had seen him quietly, right?"

"You guy, I can't hide anything from you. The prince glanced at him and said, "It's from the Ministry of War, I don't need to tell you my name, you should be able to think of it." ”

Of course, it is not difficult to come up with this name, because he is the mastermind behind Cui Xinli's personal confession, and his nephew has an accident and he is implicated, he will definitely not be able to sit still.

After getting this clue, Ye Yunyang thought of a deeper content, pointed to the pile of twists and turns, and said: "If I guessed correctly, it must be the people from the military department who took the lead, and added fuel and vinegar to publicize this matter, deceive, and bribe some imperial historians to criticize me verbally and in writing, right?"

The prince turned his head to look at his father and said, "Father, this kid is better than a monkey, how can he know everything?"

The emperor glared at his son, thinking that he couldn't hold his breath, and obviously said that he would give Ye Yunyang a dismount, but in the end, he didn't scare him, but told all the things he wanted to know.

The prince realized that he had lost his words and lowered his head.

After getting a positive answer, Ye Yunyang had a bottom in his heart, with his own character and the merits he had made before, how could he become the target of public criticism, and understood that it was those people in the military department who were engaged in conspiracy.

Their purpose is very simple, that is, to control the direction of public opinion, which has achieved the effect of confusing the public, constantly attacking Ye Yunyang and shaping him into a heinous person.

On the contrary, Cui Xinli will become a weak person who is sympathized with, as long as he no longer confesses that he has murdered Ye Feng, Ye Yunyang will have no evidence, and then sit down to the fact that he is beaten into a trick.

Of course, Ye Yunyang can say that there is evidence on the Qin side, who believes it, how credible is the information provided by the enemy?

Those people in the military department wish that he would make such a mistake, and they can give him a hat of being in touch with foreign countries, so that he has no chance to turn over.

The emperor stared at him for a few seconds and said, "Yun Yang, since you can see so deeply, why would you make such a childish mistake?"

In Liu Qi's opinion, since he has been tortured to extract a confession, why not kill Cui Xinli after getting the confession, and keeping him is a scourge at all.

Ye Yunyang replied lightly: "A wise man has a thousand thoughts, there must be a mistake! I made the decision to go to Leopard Taowei because I was carried away by hatred, and at the moment when he confessed, I really wanted to kill him, and it was precisely because I couldn't know the law and break the law that I didn't do it." Hey, I regret that I shouldn't have been merciful and let myself be in the current situation. ”

An imperceptible light flashed in the emperor's eyes, and it wasn't until this moment that he fully believed that Ye Yunyang was the fault in front of him because of his youthful heart and blood, and as Ye Yunyang thought, the emperor was indeed guarding against him.

You can't blame the emperor for being suspicious, the main reason is that he performed too well, he was already the founder of several new witchcraft at a young age, plus all kinds of contributions in the process of conquering the south and building the navy, the future future is absolutely limitless, in case one day he can't control him, the consequences are unimaginable.

In order to make the Liu family's country permanent, the emperor had to guard against it.

In fact, all this was expected by Ye Yunyang, from the moment he sent Cui Xinli to Dali Temple, he had already thought of what would happen next.

Cui Xinli is a small fish and a small shrimp, even if he is constantly jumping up and down now, he is like an ant in his eyes, and his purpose in doing this is to exchange for the emperor's complete reassurance, so that the emperor feels that he is almost perfect He is also flawed.

If a person is too perfect, he is not far from death.
