Section 420 Hidden Village Inspection
Sun Yu shook his head, "I can't tell you these things clearly, I was just a waiter of the Ministry of Rites at that time." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 He listened to the sound of rummaging through the cabinets in the room, and begged in a low voice: "I have told the adults what I should say, I wonder if the adults can spare my life?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly, he understood that this person still had a lot of truths to tell, but this did not hinder his plans, so he said: "Since Master Xie is open-minded and fearless, why don't you go to Yinzhuang with me for a few days?"
"This ...... This ......" Sun Yu stammered, his face pale. He had heard that Yinzhuang was the foundation of the Ouchi Hidden Guard, and for an official like him, entering the lair of these minions would undoubtedly lead to death.
Just as he hesitated, Chen Li had already walked out of the house with the other nine hidden guards and reported to the leader, "Lord Qiqi, no suspicious objects have been found in the house, only these letters exchanged between Sun Shangshu and relatives and friends. ”
With a gesture of his hand, two hidden guards walked up to the leader with a sack, and released the mouth of the sack, which was full of letters.
Liu Yu nodded, "Bring these letters and Master Sun back to Yinzhuang." The stakes are high and we must be extra careful. ”
After Chen Li heard the order, he forcibly tied Sun Yu to the horse and escorted him personally. Liu Yu gave an order, and the group rushed out of Sun's mansion on horseback and galloped in the direction of Wuclaw Mountain.
On Chang'an Street, a group of people were stunned when they saw the Ministry of Rites Shangshu being arrested by the hidden guards, and immediately discussed. Although this Sun Shangshu is not an obvious official, I heard that he has never been corrupt, and he can be regarded as a good official.
What Liu Yu wants is this effect, he wants everyone in Chang'an to know that the inner hidden guard has changed his usual style and arrested the three members of the imperial court in broad daylight, Sun Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. The news would soon reach Ouchi and enter the ears of that King Kui. He wanted to see how this man's old plan would be handled.
Not long after, the group was already approaching Yinzhuang. Unlike the lush shade of trees in Chang'an City, the leaves are still falling here, as if it has foreshadowed the fate that Datang is about to face. Because Chen Li and the others were old faces, the blacksmith who struck iron at the entrance of the village did not stop the group. The strange color that flashed in his eyes seemed to say, why didn't he take the prisoner to prison, but brought it here?
Sun Yu has never been to such a gloomy place, Yinzhuang is a place that the court officials will not touch, if they usually pass by, they will also walk around three miles. He looked around at the lonely scene around him, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes, "You guys...... What are you trying to do to me?"
"Invite Master Sun to tea!" Liu Yu said with a smile.
Sun Yu's body trembled, of course he understood that he didn't come here just to drink tea.
Liu Yu rode a horse in front of everyone, looking around with the peripheral vision of his eyes, and the halls of the Ouchi Hidden Guard Feng Group, the Eagle Group, the Tiger Group and other organizations were lined up on both sides of the road. Although these halls looked lifeless, he knew that there must be many pairs of eyes staring at his group in the hidden places.
When passing by the entrance of the Ouchi Tiger Group, he was extra careful. The tiger group is under the jurisdiction of Tongma, and it is Tian Lingzi's direct eyes and ears, and Tian Lingzi and Kui Wang Li Zi are very close. Observing the movements of the Tiger Group, you can know the reaction of King Kui at the first time. However, the Tiger Group is a little more low-key than several other organizations, not only is there no one in the courtyard, but the gate is closed.
He had to smile helplessly, it seemed that this King Kui had deliberately hidden his mind deeper than the sea, so that he could not guess.
After arriving at the entrance of the Dragon Group Hall, Chen Li and the others escorted Sun Yu into the house, and tied them to a chair. This is their usual way of dealing with criminal officials in the DPRK and China, and they are accustomed to it.
Liu Yu sat back in the center chair that belonged to him, and ordered: "Bring up those letters." ”
The two guards listened to the order and carried the entire sack of letters forward. Chen Li took nine hidden guards and began to inspect in front of Sun Yu, who was tied up with five flowers. A trace of worry flashed on Sun Yu's face, and in an instant, he disguised himself as if he didn't care.
There were so many letters, thousands of them. Judging by the yellowed letterheads, some of the letters are quite old. This Sun Yu is worthy of being a literati, and his friends are also poets and writers, and every letter of these people is full of enthusiasm and brilliance. Most of these letters were sent by his friends, and a few came from his brother's parents. Most of the letters from this person's close friends are stories of the spring and snow of the child's life, and they are less concerned with the political situation in the DPRK and China, while the letters from his family are mostly words of peace and concern, and since the death of his parents eight years ago, the letters exchanged between his brother and him have turned into monthly condolences.
It wasn't until dusk that all of Sun Yu's letters were counted, totaling 3,783 letters, of which 3,464 were addressed to his close friends, 238 were addressed to his parents and brothers in his hometown, and the remaining 79 miscellaneous letters were irrelevant and did not need to be attributed.
Although the number of these 238 letters sent by Sun Yu from his hometown is not much, the dates are very regular, basically once a month. Curiously, almost every letter ends with a mention of grave repair.
Liu Yu felt quite strange about this, and put his hand on the back of Sun Yu's chair, "Lord Sun, is your family's tomb so expensive, you have to repair it once a month?"
Sun Yu's face was a little strange, but he still raised his head and said, "Lord Liu, what do you mean by this?" Filial piety comes first in everything, since I am the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, I should set an example and let the people of the world see how to honor my parents. ”
Liu Yu laughed when he heard this, "Lord Sun, your son is really filial enough, but I don't know if you are the son of your parents or the son of the great eunuch Tian Lingzi?"
Sun Yu's face twitched, "You...... You...... What does that mean?"
Liu Yu put all the apprehension in this person's heart into his eyes, "Lord Sun stood by Xie You's side in his early years, and worked with everyone to keep Xie You's safety, but after Xie Youzhi's death, not only were you not demoted, but you rose to prominence. There are only two reasons to explain this: you are too filial to move the court, or you yourself are part of the plan to frame Xie You, and your subsequent promotion is just a reward for you. ”
Sun Yu refused to admit it, "Most people in the court are always good, I work diligently every day, there are always people who can see it, and besides, it took me a total of five years to become a scholar from the Ministry of Rites, and this process is definitely not short." ”
"But it's definitely not long. Liu Yu said with a smile, he beckoned Chen Li over and whispered a few words to him.
After Chen Li listened to the order, he immediately led four hidden guards away.
Sun Yu felt a little bad in his heart, and asked loudly, "Where are they going?"
Liu Yu ignored him, picked up an old letter from the ground, and flipped through a few pages, "Lord Sun, since you care so much about the court situation, why do you talk about trivial matters in the letters with your best friends?"
Sun Yu glanced at him, "In the past Wei and Jin dynasties, celebrities in the world were afraid of the disaster of killing, so they could only talk broadly, and most of Ruan's Ji Kang and others were like this, and we just followed suit a little." ”
"What does Lord Sun mean is that today's imperial court is the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the emperor is just a dementia like Emperor Jin and the Jin Dynasty?" Liu Yu quickly grasped the dead hole in this person's words.
"No...... No...... I don't have this meaning, as an official in the court, it's always good to be careful. Sun Yu waved his hand again and again.
