Chapter 149: Sending a Letter
Zhao Yan's face turned pale in an instant, and he said for a long time: "I... I don't know..."
Liang Yu smiled: "You don't have to be nervous. I know that you are a good official who is loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and you also know that I am not a petty person, nor a minion of a corrupt official, I really ask you today, if you are willing to help, I will give you the letter, and I can swear to God, the content of the letter, I have not read it yet!"
Zhao Yan glanced at him and said, "Aren't you appreciated by Wei Zhongxian, he found you in the capital a year ago..."
Liang Yu smiled contemptuously: "He did look for me, but I was just invited to save people." I know that Lord Zhao and that eunuch are incompatible, if I am in a group with him, I will take the letter, why don't I ask him for credit?"
Zhao Yan was right when he thought about it, so he nodded: "I naturally trust Your Excellency! In this case, Your Excellency might as well tell me what you have come to find this official? This official will definitely do his best!"
After Zhao Yan heard Liang Yu finish explaining the purpose of this trip, he said with a sad face: "Now in order to avoid Wei Zhongxian's eyeliner, this official does not leave the house except for the upper court, and no one is seen. But what Your Excellency said, I have also heard it, and this official knows that on that day in the court, Wei Zhongxian said a lot of bad things about the Eastern Immortal Sect. ”
"At that time, the hundred officials were also quite puzzled, it is said that the people in the Xuanmen and Wei Zhongxian have always been well water and do not interfere with river water, why did he suddenly find trouble with the Dongxian Sect? Since Your Excellency has found it today, although this official is the secretary of the military department, he has no right to inquire about this matter, but..."
When he said this, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at Liang Yu, and when the latter asked, he continued: "This official is so closed-door, in fact, he is planning a big event, and if it is done, Your Excellency's matter will be solved..."
Liang Yu sighed and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this letter should have a lot to do with the big thing in your mouth, right?"
Liang Yu stared at Zhao Yan's eyes, and his tone became deeper: "Who is this letter handed over? Your person is dead, why don't I go away? If this matter can solve the danger of my sect, you and I should cooperate for a win-win situation, and I will definitely go to the soup." ”
Zhao Yan was still a little hesitant, Liang Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Lord Zhao can't trust me?"
Zhao Yan shook his head and said, "The stakes are very high, and there must be no mistakes in this matter... So I just want to send a confidant..."
Liang Yu smiled disdainfully: "Hehe, but your henchman was killed as soon as he went out! Is this mistake still small? When I saw you leveling the rebellion of the Red Turban Army and offering advice for the siege of Guiyang, you were also a resolute person with both wisdom and courage, and I don't want to be afraid of it now. ”
When Zhao Yan heard this, his eyes were grim, as if he had made up his mind all of a sudden, and he suddenly bowed to Liang Yu and said: "Your Excellency, please accept the worship of this official!
Zhao Yanping said: "Now that Wei Zhongxian is in trouble with the dynasty, we intend to jointly impeach him! This list is a joint complaint for the saint! If Your Excellency is willing to do so, it will be sent to Yang Lian, the left deputy capital, and if you want to be promoted and make a fortune, you can send it to Wei Zhongxian!"
After Zhao Yan finished speaking, he opened the envelope, shook off the letterhead, Liang Yu looked at it, and it really hurt Chen Wei Zhongxian's twenty-four cardinal crimes, and at the place where the money was settled, there were more than 70 signatures and drawings!
Liang Yu's blood boiled when he saw it, whether it was in modern times or famous in the previous meeting, he knew that Wei Zhongxian was a complete courtier, and now that he had the opportunity to bring him down, he could naturally let out a bad breath!
Although he had no intention of changing history since he first came to the Ming Dynasty, at this time, he, Qin Ruoming, and even the entire Dongxian Sect had suffered too much from this eunuch!
What's more, if Wei Zhongxian is successfully impeached, the matter of rehabilitating the Eastern Immortal Sect will indeed be a matter of course!
Thinking of this, Liang Yu clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, Lord Zhao, I will desperately send this list to Lord Dao Yang today." ”
Zhao Yan held his hand, his eyes were full of gratitude, and then watched him leave the study and fly out of the courtyard wall again. Looking at the vigorous figure in the night, Lao Shangshu couldn't help but sigh: "It is really a blessing for the Ming Dynasty to have such chivalry!"
Liang Yu followed Zhao Yan's instructions, jumped all the way over the ridge, and soon came to the door of the Yang Mansion, but when he was about to climb over the wall to enter, he suddenly heard a panic in the courtyard.
Considering that the surroundings of Yang's Mansion may also be targeted, Liang Yu finally chose a remote place and plunged into the courtyard.
He hid in the dark part of the inner house and looked around, only to see that the Yang Mansion was full of lights, candles and torches, illuminating the courtyard as if it were day, and the people under him looked panicked, obviously looking for something.
Liang Yu quickly found a middle-aged man who seemed to be a housekeeper from those crowds, and after that person wandered around the courtyard for a while, he happened to walk over to the place where Liang Yu was hiding.
"Hey!" Liang Yu grabbed the man from the dark, "Don't be nervous, don't shout, I'm here to deliver a letter." ”
The middle-aged man looked very steady, even if he was caught by Liang Yu defenselessly, he was very clear about what to do and what not to do, although he was very nervous, but at least his voice was not trembling, and his thinking was not chaotic: "Who are you?"
Liang Yu saw that he was so calm, so he didn't put any more pressure, but said in a gentle tone: "I came to find Lord Yang Lianyang, I have something important to tell you." What are you doing in the Yang Mansion?"
The middle-aged man saw that although Liang Yu had a narrow shallow scar on his face, he didn't look like a wicked person, so he replied calmly: "I am the housekeeper of Lord Yang's mansion, I don't know what the young man is looking for Lord Yang?"
Liang Yu felt that the matter was very important, even if the other party claimed to be a housekeeper, he couldn't trust him, so he only said: "I will only say when I see Lord Yang, please take me there." ”
The housekeeper pointed to the hurried subordinates in the courtyard, and said helplessly: "The master went to the study after dinner, but when the lord was about to go to bed, the lady went to look for him, only to find that the adult was not in the study... If you don't believe me, I can take you to see Madame. ”
Liang Yu was also a little out of idea for a while: "Then see Madame first, and I'll ask again." ”
The housekeeper led Liang Yu to Mrs. Yang, and after Liang Yu explained her intentions, Mrs. Yang's slightly nervous face eased.
"Presumably Steward Zhang also said that my master didn't come out of the study for two hours, and when I went to look for him, I found that the study was empty. Mrs. Yang couldn't hide her worries, "I asked a circle of people, and no one knew where the master went, it's not like the whole house has been looking for more than an hour..."
The dignified left deputy capital Yu Shi Shen disappeared into his mansion in the middle of the night, which couldn't help but make people feel weird, so Liang Yu asked Mrs. Yang: "What abnormal behavior did Lord Yang have today, or who have you seen today?"
Mrs. Yang shook her head and said no, but the housekeeper suddenly reminded: "The old man is very happy, but when the old man returned home from the top today, he held a scroll of ancient paintings in his hand, but his face was full of displeasure, he threw the paintings into the study, and came out, and did not enter the study again until after dinner." ”
"Ancient paintings?" Liang Yu groaned slightly, "I wonder if I can go to the study in the house to have a look?"
Mrs. Yang sighed and said, "Alas, I haven't found the master after looking for a long time, if the young man can help, he can naturally go anywhere!"
Liang Yu under the guidance of Steward Zhang, into the study, this study is very spacious, put a few bookshelves against the wall, in addition to a large number of books in the bookshelf, there are some exquisite cultural toys, there are many celebrities on the wall, there are several large porcelain vases in the room, and there is also a good scroll of pictures inserted in it.
Liang Yu didn't want to see more of these senseless things, and after entering the study, he saw at a glance a framed and simple picture scroll on the bookcase on the inside of the study.
Steward Zhang on the side pointed to the scroll and said: "That's the painting that the master brought when he came back, Shaoxia, you see that there is no place for hiding people in this study, and people come and go in the whole house, but no one has seen the master come out, why are there no people......
Liang Yu approached the bookcase, only felt some inexplicable coolness, but carefully identified, but could not say the reason, he looked at the ancient painting, it was painted a deep mountain, at first glance, only felt that the strange rocky mountain scenery was slightly gloomy, that's all.
"Brother Zhang" Liang Yu called the housekeeper, "It seems that there are really no clues in the study... Why don't I leave it at this and come back in two days, I guess, maybe Lord Yang didn't say hello to his family and went out alone, I don't know. ”
Steward Zhang said that he also guessed, so since there was nothing to gain in the study, the two returned to Mrs. Yang together, and Liang Yu informed Mrs. Yang in the same words, and then left Yang's mansion.
After Liang Yu was sent out of the door by Steward Zhang, he turned around and turned back to the place where he had just climbed over the wall, jumped slightly, and returned to the courtyard, this time he was only waiting in the dark, and the people were already much more tired than just now.
No matter how big the Yang Mansion is, after searching for more than an hour, nothing can be found, and everyone feels that they are doing useless work, so although Mrs. Yang has a sad face, she has to let everyone disperse and wait until dawn.
The gong sounded outside the courtyard, and the courtyard finally returned to quiet, and the lights in each room were turned off.
The door of the study was not locked, and after Liang Yu entered, he came directly to the bookcase, and by the faint moonlight outside the window, and with the monk's night vision ability far beyond ordinary people, Liang Yu sat on the chair and re-examined the ancient painting.
At this time, the light is dim, but the deep mountains in the painting look more three-dimensional... The deep mountains outlined in ink and the darkness in the study at this time seem to merge together...
After Liang Yu looked at it from top to bottom, he still only felt depressed in his heart, and when he looked at it a second time, he suddenly found that the faint smell of ink-scented paper emitted by the scroll seemed to be being replaced by a faint mountain breath...
If you look closely, the mountain water in the painting seems to be trickling, and the shadows of the trees seem to be swaying slightly... Liang Yu thought he was dazzled, and hurriedly rubbed his eyes to look again, and sure enough, the landscape and the shadows of the trees were still still.
It seems that it is late at night, and I am really sleepy...
He yawned and rubbed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again and got up to leave, he suddenly felt a night breeze on his face, and the sound of gurgling water sounded in his ears.
Before I knew it, I was already standing in a deep mountain and old forest!
