I'm a Buddhist foster child
Chapter 64
Zhao Guogong, Yu Wenzhao!
Yu Wenxian narrowed his eyes. He had just reminded Yang Jian not long ago that Yu Wenzhao had contacted him secretly, and he probably wanted to use some means, but he didn't expect to come so soon.
Apparently the slain assassins were terrified, and they all confessed with one voice, and all of them identified Yu Wenzhao as the person who instigated them.
Yang Jian smiled thoughtfully and said, "Mr. Zhao..."
He said, waving his hands, and said: "All escorted, go with the team, and enter Chang'an together. I want to use these dead soldiers to confront Zhao Guogong... face to face."
"Yes!" Yang Zheng was in charge of escorting the dead men, and quickly left the shogunate camp with the dead men, and escorted them all.
Last night was attacked by assassins, and everyone did not rest. Yang Jian specially ordered everyone to rest today and set off tomorrow: "The distance is not a problem. After all, there are various difficulties in going to Chang'an. Let's walk steadily. Seriously."
Everyone nodded, went back to rest, and left the shogunate camp, leaving only Yang Jian and the little bun Yang Guang.
Yang Guang sat steadily on the seat, with his short legs slumped, and his hands on his knees. If you ignore the tightly frowning Xiao Chuan eyebrows, it is simply a standard obedient sitting action.
Yang Jian walked over and said, "Son, what are you thinking?"
Yang Guang squinted his eyes and said, "I'm thinking about... these assassins."
Yang Jian said, "What's wrong with a dead man?"
Yang Guang said: "There is nothing wrong, what is wrong is Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao."
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you say that?"
Yang Guang had a stern face, and the old god said: "Mr. Zhao Guo, although he looks flirtatious, but he is very suspicious and thinks deeply. He often thinks too much, so he will be on the verge... "
This idea is a bit like Yuan Shao in history. During the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao was obviously the biggest "warlord leader". However, because Yuan Shao was always on the move and thought too deeply, he missed many great opportunities.
Yang Guang said again: "Duke Zhao has such a delicate and deep mind, the assassination of a dead man this time is too reckless, isn't it?"
Although the dead soldiers used poisonous gas, it is impossible to poison all of them with so many troops. The probability of being caught is conservatively estimated to be [-] to [-]. Such a reckless move is not like that of Zhao Guogong.
Yang Jian said, "You mean...the dead man is lying?"
Yang Guang shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true."
Yang Guang said both sides, but Yang Jian did not show a confused expression, but a suddenly realized expression. He seemed to have thought of a third possibility...
The brigade set off on the second day and continued to go to Chang'an in a mighty way. There were many difficulties along the way. Apart from Yu Wenzhao, there were other people who didn't want Yang Jian to enter Beijing. Still arrived at Jingzhao Chang'an.
After the large army arrived in Chang'an, they stopped at the gate. Someone blocked Yang Jian from entering the city, and the city guard shouted upstairs: "Please remove the soldiers and horses from the general of the town army! Soldiers and horses are not allowed to enter the city!" "
It is reasonable for Yang Jian to bring soldiers, so many soldiers and horses cannot enter Chang'an City, but this trip back, Lord Zhou and Lord Qi died at the same time, Chang'an must have been messed up. People feel at ease.
Yu Wenhui said: "What should we do? What about our soldiers and horses?"
Yang Jian said in a low voice, "It's okay, they are all stationed in the suburbs."
Yu Wenhui nodded, and immediately went to arrange the garrison. He stationed the soldiers and horses, and selected the elite to follow. Sure enough, there was no difficulty in defending the city. He immediately opened the door and let everyone in.
When Yang Jian and the others entered Chang'an City, a flying horse followed immediately, and an imperial guard got off his horse, knelt down and cupped his hands and said, "For the imperial court meeting, please rush into the palace with the governor Otsuka and the general of the town army to participate in the imperial court. Discussion!"
As soon as Yang Jian entered Chang'an City, someone came to ask them to go to the court for a meeting. Obviously, someone had set up eyeliners in Chang'an City to monitor the city gate.
Yang Jian didn't refuse to refuse, all the people drove their horses into the palace, arrived at the bus station, unloaded all the horses, and then went to the Zhengwu Hall where the lawsuit was heard.
Walking halfway, I saw the guards in front of us, at least 50 people, lined up on the road, blocking the road ahead.
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "It's really lively."
The leader of the imperial guards cupped his hands and said, "I have seen Zai Otsuka, the general of the town army, all the princes and generals."
Yang Jian smiled very friendly and said: "I was ordered to come to the court to discuss, this is...?"
The leader of the imperial guards said: "Please don't misunderstand the general of the town army. Because there were assassins in the uterus a few days ago, they wanted to assassinate the queen mother, so they deployed heavy defenses."
Yang Jian nodded, and the imperial guards made way for him to pass, but Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu had just walked over, with a sound of "pop!", the imperial guards immediately closed their halberds, and the two halberds crossed, Blocked the way, blocking everyone else behind.
Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu looked back, and the imperial guards lined up again, blocking all the others behind.
Yu Wenhui was a violent person, and said: "What do you mean? What a dare! How dare I stop you?!"
The Imperial Guards said sternly: "Please forgive me, General Hussars. This time, the court meeting in the Zhengwu Palace was ordered by the Empress Dowager. It was not a meeting of the ministers, but a small-scale court meeting. Zhong Zai and the General of the Zhenjun enter the inner court to discuss, and the rest of the people, please wait here and are not allowed to enter."
"What nonsense are you talking about!?" Yu Wenhui stared, what does this mean?The soldiers were unloaded at the gate of Chang'an, and now they entered the Zhengwu Hall, and they had to separate everyone?
Moreover, the imperial court had a rule that all officials who entered Zhengwu Hall for an audience had to take off their swords and shoes, that is to say, they were not allowed to bring any weapons inside. Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu didn't know what would happen when they went in.
Compared with Yuwenhui, Yang Jian and Yuwenhu were calm, and Yuwenhu said quietly: "The third child."
Yu Wenhui then closed his mouth, but still stared at the imperial guards with his eyes.
Yang Guang frowned, looked up at Yang Jian with his small face up, and then put on an innocent look, and said in a childish voice: "Father is just going to the court to discuss, don't miss the time, go quickly stop!"
Yang Jian also smiled and said: "That's right, Jian and Zai Otsuka are just going to the court to discuss, you don't have to worry, just wait here."
The imperial guard said loudly: "Zai Otsuka, general of the town army, please!"
Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu did not hesitate, walked forward, and soon reached the gate of Zhengwu Hall.
Inside the hall.
The ministers came all over the place, if it was a court meeting, the scale would be a bit too big, but if it was not a court meeting, like Sui Guogong Yang Zhong, Hushi General Yu Wenhui, and Cheqi General Yang Zheng. None of his official titles went to the palace, and it was really weird.
The hall is empty and majestic, and the imperial guards are holding halberds, lined up at the gate of the Zhengwu Hall, guarding them fiercely. A young man stands in the center of the Zhengwu Hall, surrounded by the officials, with the momentum of stars holding the moon.
This boy is young, tall, and has a long oval face. At first glance, he looks coquettish and handsome, revealing a demeanor that is indifferent to the world, but on closer inspection, this person has raised eyebrows, drooping eyes, slightly The feeling of triangular eyes is not ugly. When smiling, it is full of gentleness and concern. When not smiling, it reveals a shrewd energy of careful calculation.
This person must be Zhou Lord Yu Wenyong's younger brother, the seventh oldest Zhao Guogong——Yu Wenzhao!
Now that Zhou Lord Yu Wenyong passed away, the imperial court fell apart immediately, and many factions splintered out. Yu Wenzhao had always been elegant and talented. Although his faction was not the most numerous, it still had followers and admirers.
Yu Wenzhao was standing in the main hall of the Zhengwu Hall, an official stepped forward and whispered in Yu Wenzhao's ear, "Duke, that man has already entered the palace, and immediately... he will enter the Zhengwu Hall."
Yu Wenzhao restrained his pleasant smile, raised his eyebrows slightly, and shrewd triangular eyes, all of which made him look calculating and good at hypocrisy.
Yu Wenzhao said in a low voice, "Have the guards been replaced?"
The official said: "Yes, according to Zhao Gong's intention, all of them will be replaced by our own people. As soon as that guy enters Zhengwu Hall, then..."
The official did not continue, but raised his hand slightly, put his five fingers together, and tapped lightly on the palm of his hand.
Yu Wenzhao narrowed his eyes and said, "That man is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so there must be no mistakes, it is better to be careful."
The official nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Zhao, please don't worry. As long as Mr. Zhao gives an order, the subordinates have already found all 23 crimes against the man, and read them out in the hall. Please ask the Queen Mother to issue an order. Since Yu Wenzhi was left out in the cold, Only you, Mr. Zhao, are the most favored by the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager naturally believes in her own family, but not that outsider, Haner, so why not worry that this imperial court belongs to you, Mr. Zhao?"
When Yu Wenzhao heard this, he raised his hand, signaled the officials to stop talking, and said, "Shut up."
"Yes Yes."
Yu Wenzhao was making plans with the officials when he heard the sound of communication from outside, Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu arrived, followed by the sound of "boom—boom—" the majestic gate of Zhengwu Hall was slowly pushed open, The two figures were drawn long by the setting sun, projected on the ground of Zhengwu Hall, and walked in slowly.
It's Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu!
When Yang Jian left Chang'an, he was just a "little" town army general.
When Yang Jian returned to Chang'an, he was still just a "little" general of the town army. His official rank had not been promoted, but the soldiers and horses in his hands had rapidly expanded, and the number of troops was overwhelming.
Everyone watched Yang Jian walk in, and they all held their breath, subconsciously holding their breath, not daring to take a breath.
Yu Wenzhao stood among the crowd, in the middle of the hall, with his hands behind his back. The moment he saw Yang Jian, his hands behind his back couldn't help but also tightened, as if he was a little nervous.
Yu Wenzhao coughed lightly, and said in a master's attitude and tone, "Since you are all here, please invite the Queen Mother."
"Please Queen Mother!"
The officials lowered their heads and heard the sound of guards of honor. The Empress Dowager Chinu came out slowly and sat at the top of the Zhengwu Hall. She hung down the jade curtain to isolate herself from the officials. They immediately bowed down and said they were paying their respects to the Empress Dowager.
During this trip, the empress dowager's two sons, Yu Wenyong and Yu Wenzhi, were all gone. When the empress dowager saw Yu Wenhu, she immediately said, "Master Otsuka, please tell me what's going on... the lord... "
When she said this, it seemed that some mechanism had been activated, and in an instant the court burst into tears.
"My God..."
"Master, why did you go like this..."
"My lord, are you going to accompany the former lord? Why don't you take this old minister with you, my lord? This old official also wants to accompany you!"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced around Zhengwu Hall, which looked like a large-scale symphony. His eyes turned and fell on Yu Wenzhao. Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao was obviously sizing up Yang Jian secretly, but he did not expect to be caught by Yang Jian. Right now, he just wanted to look away without any trace, but Yang Jian didn't give him this chance, he had already smiled at Yuwen and nodded slightly.
Yu Wenzhao coughed again, and said in a voice that suppressed his grief: "Everyone, the Lord has passed away. Although we are heartbroken and angry, the Lord certainly does not want to see the imperial court collapse. Only when the matter is completed can we repay the host’s kindness, isn’t it?”
"It's exactly..."
"Mr. Zhao is right..."
As soon as Zhao Guogong Yuwen Zhao's voice fell, he turned his head to look at Yang Jian, as if he was about to make trouble, his slender eyebrows were raised even more, all the tenderness, concern, and suaveness disappeared in an instant, and his face was a bit mean and cold He said coldly: "On the contrary, I would like to ask the general of the town army, the master... how did he die?"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows, it's here, isn't it here?Finally got into trouble.
Yang Jian's attitude was respectful, neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "The funeral report of the owner's death should have arrived in Chang'an, just like what was written in the funeral report, the owner personally led the army and conquered Jinyang. The east side of Jinyang is narrow. Encountered an ambush, unfortunately collapsed and among the chaos of soldiers, in fact... when the owner died, the humble general was at Fenshui Pass, so I don't know much about the details. If the Queen Mother, Zhao Gong and you have any questions, the humble general thinks, It would be safer to ask Otsuka Zai who was in Jinyang at the time."
Good guy, really good guy, when everyone heard it, play football!This is obviously kicking a football, kicking such a big iron ball in front of Otsuka Zaiyu Wenhu.
Who doesn't know that Otsuka Zai plays a very important role in the court and has always been iron-blooded, who dares to question Otsuka Zai?
Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao's face was a little stiff. He had already prepared 23 crimes. He was waiting for an opportunity to make an opening statement. He read it out on the spot, and then used the Queen Mother's power to escort Yang Jian and seize his military power. Everything was solved easily. .
Who knew that Yang Jian would play the ball stubbornly with him, kicking the ball in front of Otsuka Zaiyu Wenhu.
Yuwenhu is the cousin of the owner Yuwenyong. To put it bluntly, Yuwenhu is actually a royal bloodline. Although it is slightly more tortuous than the bloodline of Zhao Guogong Yuwenzhao, Yuwenhu himself also supports parties in the court, and there are quite a few parties .
As soon as many people heard about Yu Wenyong's death, they wanted to recommend the most powerful Zai Otsuka. To put it bluntly, Yu Wenzhao was also in competition with him.
Now that Yu Wenzhao wanted to remove Yang Jian's military power, he had no reason to offend both of them at once, and also offended Yu Wenhu, so Yang Jian kicked the ball in front of Yu Wenhu, and Yu Wenzhao had no way at all.
Yu Wenzhao wanted to attack again, he had prepared several plans, but Yang Jian suddenly spoke up, and said first: "Actually... the humble general is also puzzled by something, and wants to ask Mr. Zhao."
Yang Jian didn't give Yuwen any chance to interrupt, and continued to say: "On the way back to the court, the humble general was attacked by assassin dead men, who lit poisonous gas in the bonfire, and almost killed tens of thousands of my Zhou army. , The practice is vicious and natural, and it is extremely venomous! Excuse me, Mr. Zhao, do you know who sent these dead men?"
Yu Wenzhao frowned fiercely, denied it categorically, and said, "I've been in Chang'an all along, how did I know?"
"Oh? Is that so?" Yang Jian smiled faintly and said, "But as far as I know, these assassins... confessed to you at the behest of Mr. Zhao."
"What... what?" Yu Wenzhao's expression stiffened immediately, and he also stuttered.
The assassin was indeed sent by Yuwen Zhao. In fact, when Yu Wenzhao heard that Yang Jian entered Chang'an, he already knew that the assassin's assassination had failed, but he never expected that the assassin who had been selected by thousands of people would betray him?
Yu Wenzhao thought that those assassins who were defeated would definitely commit suicide and rot the secret in their stomachs, but who knew that such a situation would happen?
Yu Wenzhao said straightforwardly: "General Zhenjun, what do you mean? Could it be that you suspect me? Those assassins must have been provoked by others to deliberately frame me."
Yang Jian said: "Really? Actually... the humble general also thought the same way. In order to return Mr. Zhao to your innocence, the humble general arrested these assassins on purpose, and escorted them all tied up. At this time, they were already at the gate of the palace. I also ask the Empress Dowager to be clear, and escort the assassins to confront them in court, so as not to frame the royal family, disturb the audience, and interfere with the court!"
Yu Wenzhao's heart was beating wildly, but his face pretended to be calm, and said: "Assassins are dangerous, I don't think there is any need..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Jian said with a smile: "The assassin has already been caught, what's more, Mr. Zhao, didn't you have placed hundreds of guards outside the hall? Why can't you catch a few little assassins? "
Yu Wenzhao's face turned extremely ugly, he wanted to preemptively strike, but the current situation was turned upside down instantly, and he was led by the nose by Yang Jian, extremely passive.
The queen mother didn't know that the matter of the assassin was arranged by Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao, and Yang Jian's request to summon the assassin was reasonable, so the queen mother naturally didn't stop her, saying: "Is there anyone so bold? Let's interrogate the assassin."
Yu Wenzhao bit his lower lip, watched helplessly as the gate of the Zhengwu Hall opened, and the guards escorted the assassins into the hall. Sure enough, Yu Wenzhao knew all of those assassins, even when they turned into ashes.
The assassin knelt on the ground, the assassin who had been chosen out of thousands, betrayed his master at this critical moment, and even killed Yu Wenzhao. say.
In fact, Yang Jian didn't need them to talk, so he took out a few pieces of honey scented paper from his wide sleeves, shook them open with a "crash", unfolded them for everyone to watch, and said: "Please look at the Queen Mother and the ministers, this is the assassin's confession." The blood book, clearly and plainly, clearly states the person who instigated it."
Yu Wenzhao couldn't see clearly, but the ministers had already erupted into a commotion...
"It's Zhao Guogong!"
"Mr. Zhao! Is it really Mr. Zhao?"
"Mr. Zhao actually sent a deadly assassin, this... this approach is too..."
Everyone secretly cast guessing glances at Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao, and Yu Wenzhao panicked instantly. Seeing the blood book, the queen mother said coldly, "Zhao Guogong, what is going on!"
The queen mother's two biological sons are gone, and the remaining sons have no blood relationship with her. To put it bluntly, these princes have their own mothers. If they come to power, the queen mother will no longer be the queen mother, so the queen mother is now a The bowl of water is flat and impartial, so naturally it will not favor Yu Wenzhao.
Yu Wenzhao's throat tightened. He wanted to punish Yang Jian, but Yang Jian launched the attack first. The 23 crimes he had prepared hadn't been used yet, but he was accused of one, and quickly said: "The queen mother has learned! Just relying on this... This blood book is not enough evidence, it is framing the child... This is definitely, it is framed..."
"The humble general thinks so too."
As soon as Yu Wenzhao finished speaking, the first person to answer him was Yang Jian who took out the blood book!
Yu Wenzhao was stunned immediately, staring at Yang Jian strangely and incredulously, not only him, but all the ministers were also strange, shouldn't Yang Jian tear himself apart from Yu Wenzhao at this time, wishing he could drag his hair and swear in the Zhengwu Hall, both sides would suffer ?
why...
Why is it that Yang Jian is so talkative all of a sudden, he can kill Yuwen's tricks, but he left him a living and took the initiative to step down?
Yang Jian said with a smile: "Dead warriors and assassins are by no means good people, and Zhao Guogong worked hard for the world of Zhou and abided by the rules. Now that the leader is dead and the officials are sad and angry, under such circumstances, are we willing to believe in assassins? Are you one of your own?"
What a white lotus, Yang Jian pretended to be a white lotus, that's easy.
Yang Jian continued to say righteously: "Without the leadership of the Lord, perhaps the Great Zhou was at its most difficult time, but the humble general thought that as long as the officials were united and the Queen Mother sat down, they would definitely be able to tide over the difficulties and revive the Great Zhou. .”
Not only did he talk about all the big guys, but he also put a high hat on the Queen Mother.
Yu Wenzhao's face trembled, and Yang Jian became a good person, but he couldn't do it if he didn't go down this step.
"Hiss - hiss -"
Yang Jian split his hands, and suddenly tore the blood books one by one, tearing them into pieces, shaking his hands, throwing them all over the sky, and pieces of paper fluttered in the Zhengwu Hall, like butterflies, or like flying The white snow is more like... paper money for the dead.
Yang Jian said: "The humble general will never believe that Duke Zhao will do such lowly things as harming his colleagues. There must be some misunderstanding, right, Duke Zhao?"
Yu Wenzhao's forehead twitched twice, took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and then slowly said: "Exactly, what General Zhenjun... said is exactly."
Yang Jian nodded, turned around, faced the group of officials, and said: "When the lord dies, all the ministers are grieved. The humble general thinks that the most urgent thing is to bury the lord. The burial is a big event, and we must not let it go hastily. You can also do our best to be loyal and filial as ministers, can't you?"
When everyone heard it, they seemed unable to refute it. Indeed, Yu Wenyong passed away and hadn't been buried yet, nor did he have the etiquette to prepare for the burial.
Yang Jian proposed to be buried. If Yu Wenzhao impeached Yang Jian under such circumstances, it would appear a bit mean, regardless of priority and quick success.
In addition, Yang Jian tore up the bloody letter accusing Yu Wenzhao just now, and some officials who had not yet stood in line also favored Yang Jian, Yu Wenzhao became more passive, and had already missed a great opportunity, so he could only admit it and swallow it.
The Empress Dowager nodded and said: "The burial is an important matter, and you must not let it go lightly. If you leave this matter to others, I am not at ease. Let it be left to Otsuka."
Yu Wenhu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Yes, the minister has received the edict."
It has been a long time since Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu entered the Zhengwu Hall, the sun was slowly sinking to the west, the sky was dim and yellow, and the unique darkness and coldness of winter slowly climbed up the walls of the Great Zhou Palace, covering the entire palace.
Everyone stood in the cold wind of midwinter, their hearts gradually became uneasy, Yu Wenhui said in a low voice: "It's been too long, I've been there for so long, and there is no movement in Zhengwu Hall, no way..."
As he spoke, he was about to move forward, but the imperial guards immediately stopped him with their halberds and said, "General Hussars, please don't make it difficult for me to wait!"
Yu Wenhui said in a cold voice: "Embarrassing? You are right, I like embarrassing others the most!"
"Crack!" he said, grabbing the Praetorian's halberd with a snap.
Seeing that Yuwenhui was about to clash with the imperial guards, Yang Guang frowned, and suddenly said, "Here we come."
coming!
It was Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu, as expected, they really came back, they were all beards and shadows, not a single hair was missing.
As soon as Yang Jian came over, Yang Zhong, Yang Zheng and Yang Zan all rushed forward, and Yang Zhong quickly said, "My son, it's okay!"
Yang Zheng also said: "Brother, how are you doing!?"
Yang Zan said, "Are you injured?"
Yang Jian stretched out his arms to let them observe him, and said with a smile, "What could be the matter? Grandpa and the two younger brothers are just worrying about nothing."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they were full of suspicion, and the imperial guards were dispatched. In such a big battle, Yang Jian was fine and laughed so easily?
Yang Jian squatted down, picked Yang Guang up, rubbed Yang Guang's little face, and said, "My dear son, you see that everyone cares about father and father so much, doesn't the son care about father and father?"
Yang Guang glanced at Yang Jian sideways, and said, "What are you worried about? Yu Wenzhao is no match for his father at all, so why should my son worry so much?"
Yang Jian gave a "tsk" and said, "Son, you are so unlovable, father and father will 'transfer love'."
Yang Guang's eyelids twitched, Yang Jian raised a faint smile, let Yang Guang sit on his arm, freed up his other hand, poked Yang Guang's chubby little face, and said, "Good boy, Show your father and father a cute look."
Yang Guang: "..."
Yang Guang glanced helplessly at Yang Jian, Yang Jian was not serious, it seemed that there was no need to worry about the matter of the Zhengwu Palace, and the resolution went smoothly.
Yang Guang coughed slightly, turned his heart to one side, and changed his face as if he changed into an innocent, peerless and pitiful child in an instant, with his fleshy face raised, and his two small arms wrapped around Yang Jian's neck. , dangling back and forth, said in a childish voice: "Father, father is the hottest!"
Yang Jian nodded, and said in an unsatisfactory way: "One more thing, I like father and father the most."
Yang Guang: "..."
Yang Guang's eyelids twitched again, and he said bravely, "The most, the most spicy food!" Hah——!
Only then did Yang Jian raise a good father's smile in satisfaction, and said, "My son is so sweet." And it's all natural and sugar-free.
Yang Jian said to everyone: "Let's go, let's go out of the palace first, everyone is tired after going out this time, so it's serious to go back and rest."
Indeed, it was already winter when I returned from this trip, and Chang'an was much colder.
Everyone went back to their homes, of course, Gao Changgong, Gao Yanzong and other newcomers followed Yang Jian to the Duke of Sui's mansion, fortunately Yang Zhong was a Duke of the country and the mansion was spacious enough.
When Yang Jian and the others came to the bus station, they saw a figure hovering under the dead tree branches, like a kite with a broken string. Her figure was slender, even thin, shivering in the cold wind, and she had a kind of charming feeling. sorrow.
Yang Guang was still sitting in Yang Jian's arms, when he saw the woman, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked at Yang Jian gloatingly, there was no doubt that this person was Yu Wenyong's younger sister, Princess Shunyang.
Princess Shunyang was waiting at the bus station, apparently waiting for them. When she heard footsteps, she raised her head and met Yang Jian's eyes.
Yang Jian rubbed his forehead, Yang Guang raised his chubby mouth slantingly, and said with a soft smile: "Father, Princess Shunyang really has a deep affection for her father, but... if my son If I remember correctly, Princess Shunyang is my father's future sibling, and my father's accounts are really muddled and messed up."
Listening to his son's ridicule, Yang Jian felt a dull pain in his forehead. That's right. If Yang Jian and Yang Guang remembered correctly, the historical Princess Shunyang who married King Tengmu, the third younger brother of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, was none other than Yang Zan. !
According to Yang Guang's memory, the relationship between the third son Yang Zan and his father has never been very good. Yang Zan was infatuated with Princess Shunyang. With the dictatorship of the elder brother, he plotted again and again, trying to kill the elder brother secretly.
Later, when Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty came to the throne, it was discovered that Yang Zan's wife, Princess Shunyang, planned a witchcraft curse. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered Yang Zan to divorce his wife.In the end, Yang Zan hunted with Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty in the Liyuan Garden, and died of an inexplicable illness. There are rumors in the market that it was Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty who gave poisoned wine to kill Yang Zan...
Princess Shunyang looked over, Yang Jian turned his eyes away, he had clearly rejected Princess Shunyang last time, so this time he didn't want to say anything more, and directly carried the little bun Yang Guang onto the carriage.
Princess Shunyang wanted to call Yang Jian to stop, but she couldn't speak. She watched Yang Jian get on the carriage and "ruthlessly" lowered the curtain.
Yang Jian got into the car, Princess Shunyang looked at Yang Zan, and suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
Yang Zan didn't expect Princess Shunyang to call him back, so he paused for a while, looked back at Princess Shunyang, and Princess Shunyang said in a low voice, "I have something... I want to tell you."
Yang Zan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and stood still. The others got into the carriage, and Yang Jian didn't stop him, saying, "Third brother, let's go back first."
Yang Zan said: "Brother will go back on his own in a while."
Yang Zheng's memory hadn't fully recovered yet, he looked strangely at the youngest Yang Zan and Princess Shunyang under the carriage, and said, "Brother, who is this woman?"
Yang Jian said with a smile, "It's the infatuated sweetheart of your silly brother."
Yang Zheng suddenly realized, nodded, and said: "It seems that I have such an impression, but...why does this woman look at the elder brother's eyes so strangely?"
Yang Jian: "..." I almost forgot, the second child is a little expert in making complaints!
The carriage started quickly, and the figures of Yang Zan and Princess Shunyang became farther and farther away, becoming more and more blurred, and slowly disappeared into the distance of the bus station. Do it, I will go back later, you go back first."
As Yang Zheng said, he quickly jumped out of the cart and ran back without waiting for the cart to stop.
Yang Jian lifted the curtains of the car, looked back at Yang Zheng, shook his head and said, "What are you doing in such a hurry?"
But Yang Zan stayed there, and said to Princess Shunyang, "I don't know if the princess is looking for a humble minister, what's the matter?"
Princess Shunyang lowered her head, tore at the corner of her clothes, and whispered: "I...I know your feelings for me, so you will not deceive me...I want to know...Brother Emperor...Brother Emperor... How it died."
Yang Zan suddenly realized that what Princess Shunyang wanted to ask was Yu Wenyong's death.
Princess Shunyang said again: "There has been gossip in the court, is it... is it the prince..."
"No!" Yang Zan immediately denied it, with a very firm attitude, and said: "This humble minister did not deceive the princess, nor did he lie, and he is indeed not the eldest brother. When the lord passed away, the elder brother was at Fenshui Pass, far away, humble You can use your head as a guarantee, and the rumors and rumors in the court must not be true!"
When Princess Shunyang heard what Yang Zan said, her expression gradually relaxed, and she said, "Is that so...that's good, that's good..."
As he spoke, he walked slowly into the distance in a daze, without looking at Yang Zan again.
Yang Zan stood upright in the cold wind at the bus station, watched Princess Shunyang go away from a distance, sighed slightly, it was inaudible, and was instantly blown away by the cold wind, disappearing without a trace.
At this moment, someone laughed lightly, the laughter was frivolous, Yang Zan immediately became alert, and when he looked back, someone was standing quietly behind Yang Zan, wearing a royal robe, holding his waist Fan, raised eyebrows thinly, deep lying silkworms, and a gentle and caring smile.
It was Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao!
Yuwen walked over with his waist fan waving, and said with a smile, "Isn't this Lord Sanlang? Why are you sighing here? Oh yes..."
Before Yang Zan could answer, Yu Wenzhao said with a smile: "It must be because of my sister again... My sister is too ignorant of Master Sanlang's intentions. If you ask me, Master Sanlang's infatuation can be learned from heaven and earth. The son of honour, loves you deeply."
Yang Zan ignored him and turned to leave, "Crack!" Yu Wenzhao grabbed Yang Zan's hand and said, "You don't want to know what my sister thinks?"
Yang Zan was held back by Yuwenzhao, and stared at Yuwenzhao with a frown. At the same time, he heard a soft "rustle", like the sound of wind blowing leaves, which was almost imperceptible.
A figure appeared in the bus department, it was Yang Zheng!
The second brother Yang Zheng had just seen Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao enter the bus office. Before Yu Wenzhao was still embarrassing his elder brother Yang Jian, Yang Zheng was worried that the third brother Yang Zan was alone, and suddenly jumped out of the car in a hurry and chased him back.
Yang Zheng watched Yu Wenzhao grab Yang Zan, and immediately wanted to step forward, but just as he took a step, he suddenly stopped, and slowly retreated, hiding in the shadows, and did not show up immediately.
Yang Zan shook his hand, shook off the shackles of Yu Wenzhao, "snapped" his sleeve robe, and said lightly: "How Princess Shunyang thinks of me is her own business, and it doesn't get in the way. I can't bother Mr. Zhao, so I don't bother Mr. Zhao to worry about it."
After all, turn around and leave.
"Yang Zan!"
Yu Wenzhao shouted to stop him, stepped over, stopped Yang Zan again, and said, "Didn't you always look down on your foolish elder brother? Why, have you changed your temper?"
When Yang Jian first came here, the relationship with his brothers was indeed not very good, not close, even a little strange, and it could be seen that the youngest, Yang Zan, looked down on Yang Jian very much, as if he had a lot of complaints about Yang Jian.
However, after the whole family got along, they quickly became one with each other. After all, they were brothers and friends, and the family was harmonious.
When Yu Wenzhao mentioned this matter now, Yang Zan couldn't help but frowned. He hadn't thought about it carefully all along. Maybe a long time ago, the relationship between himself and his eldest brother was indeed not harmonious, but he didn't know where it started to change. Yang Zan never thought about it again. Thought about this kind of thing.
Yu Wenzhao said: "Your eldest brother, it's just that he has grown older. He had a good pregnancy and became the eldest son. If he is not the eldest son, what is better than you? My younger sister is also true. I just saw it. His appearance, but ignored you, the all-rounder of civil and military skills, Lord Saburo!"
Yang Zan frowned and said, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Yu Wenzhao smiled faintly, lowered his voice, and said in Yang Zan's ear: "Think about it, if there is no son of the Duke of Sui in this world, you are also the son of the Duke of Sui, and the number one talented man in Jingzhao. Having both, wouldn’t it be a logical succession for the heir? If there is no heir of Sui Guogong in this world, how can my blind and stupid sister not see you, a shining pearl?"
Yu Wenzhao raised his hand, "Pa...pa..." He patted Yang Zan's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "Think clearly, if you cooperate with me, I can match you and my sister, My little sister is just not enlightened, if my brother mentions it
Yu Wenxian narrowed his eyes. He had just reminded Yang Jian not long ago that Yu Wenzhao had contacted him secretly, and he probably wanted to use some means, but he didn't expect to come so soon.
Apparently the slain assassins were terrified, and they all confessed with one voice, and all of them identified Yu Wenzhao as the person who instigated them.
Yang Jian smiled thoughtfully and said, "Mr. Zhao..."
He said, waving his hands, and said: "All escorted, go with the team, and enter Chang'an together. I want to use these dead soldiers to confront Zhao Guogong... face to face."
"Yes!" Yang Zheng was in charge of escorting the dead men, and quickly left the shogunate camp with the dead men, and escorted them all.
Last night was attacked by assassins, and everyone did not rest. Yang Jian specially ordered everyone to rest today and set off tomorrow: "The distance is not a problem. After all, there are various difficulties in going to Chang'an. Let's walk steadily. Seriously."
Everyone nodded, went back to rest, and left the shogunate camp, leaving only Yang Jian and the little bun Yang Guang.
Yang Guang sat steadily on the seat, with his short legs slumped, and his hands on his knees. If you ignore the tightly frowning Xiao Chuan eyebrows, it is simply a standard obedient sitting action.
Yang Jian walked over and said, "Son, what are you thinking?"
Yang Guang squinted his eyes and said, "I'm thinking about... these assassins."
Yang Jian said, "What's wrong with a dead man?"
Yang Guang said: "There is nothing wrong, what is wrong is Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao."
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you say that?"
Yang Guang had a stern face, and the old god said: "Mr. Zhao Guo, although he looks flirtatious, but he is very suspicious and thinks deeply. He often thinks too much, so he will be on the verge... "
This idea is a bit like Yuan Shao in history. During the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao was obviously the biggest "warlord leader". However, because Yuan Shao was always on the move and thought too deeply, he missed many great opportunities.
Yang Guang said again: "Duke Zhao has such a delicate and deep mind, the assassination of a dead man this time is too reckless, isn't it?"
Although the dead soldiers used poisonous gas, it is impossible to poison all of them with so many troops. The probability of being caught is conservatively estimated to be [-] to [-]. Such a reckless move is not like that of Zhao Guogong.
Yang Jian said, "You mean...the dead man is lying?"
Yang Guang shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true."
Yang Guang said both sides, but Yang Jian did not show a confused expression, but a suddenly realized expression. He seemed to have thought of a third possibility...
The brigade set off on the second day and continued to go to Chang'an in a mighty way. There were many difficulties along the way. Apart from Yu Wenzhao, there were other people who didn't want Yang Jian to enter Beijing. Still arrived at Jingzhao Chang'an.
After the large army arrived in Chang'an, they stopped at the gate. Someone blocked Yang Jian from entering the city, and the city guard shouted upstairs: "Please remove the soldiers and horses from the general of the town army! Soldiers and horses are not allowed to enter the city!" "
It is reasonable for Yang Jian to bring soldiers, so many soldiers and horses cannot enter Chang'an City, but this trip back, Lord Zhou and Lord Qi died at the same time, Chang'an must have been messed up. People feel at ease.
Yu Wenhui said: "What should we do? What about our soldiers and horses?"
Yang Jian said in a low voice, "It's okay, they are all stationed in the suburbs."
Yu Wenhui nodded, and immediately went to arrange the garrison. He stationed the soldiers and horses, and selected the elite to follow. Sure enough, there was no difficulty in defending the city. He immediately opened the door and let everyone in.
When Yang Jian and the others entered Chang'an City, a flying horse followed immediately, and an imperial guard got off his horse, knelt down and cupped his hands and said, "For the imperial court meeting, please rush into the palace with the governor Otsuka and the general of the town army to participate in the imperial court. Discussion!"
As soon as Yang Jian entered Chang'an City, someone came to ask them to go to the court for a meeting. Obviously, someone had set up eyeliners in Chang'an City to monitor the city gate.
Yang Jian didn't refuse to refuse, all the people drove their horses into the palace, arrived at the bus station, unloaded all the horses, and then went to the Zhengwu Hall where the lawsuit was heard.
Walking halfway, I saw the guards in front of us, at least 50 people, lined up on the road, blocking the road ahead.
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "It's really lively."
The leader of the imperial guards cupped his hands and said, "I have seen Zai Otsuka, the general of the town army, all the princes and generals."
Yang Jian smiled very friendly and said: "I was ordered to come to the court to discuss, this is...?"
The leader of the imperial guards said: "Please don't misunderstand the general of the town army. Because there were assassins in the uterus a few days ago, they wanted to assassinate the queen mother, so they deployed heavy defenses."
Yang Jian nodded, and the imperial guards made way for him to pass, but Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu had just walked over, with a sound of "pop!", the imperial guards immediately closed their halberds, and the two halberds crossed, Blocked the way, blocking everyone else behind.
Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu looked back, and the imperial guards lined up again, blocking all the others behind.
Yu Wenhui was a violent person, and said: "What do you mean? What a dare! How dare I stop you?!"
The Imperial Guards said sternly: "Please forgive me, General Hussars. This time, the court meeting in the Zhengwu Palace was ordered by the Empress Dowager. It was not a meeting of the ministers, but a small-scale court meeting. Zhong Zai and the General of the Zhenjun enter the inner court to discuss, and the rest of the people, please wait here and are not allowed to enter."
"What nonsense are you talking about!?" Yu Wenhui stared, what does this mean?The soldiers were unloaded at the gate of Chang'an, and now they entered the Zhengwu Hall, and they had to separate everyone?
Moreover, the imperial court had a rule that all officials who entered Zhengwu Hall for an audience had to take off their swords and shoes, that is to say, they were not allowed to bring any weapons inside. Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu didn't know what would happen when they went in.
Compared with Yuwenhui, Yang Jian and Yuwenhu were calm, and Yuwenhu said quietly: "The third child."
Yu Wenhui then closed his mouth, but still stared at the imperial guards with his eyes.
Yang Guang frowned, looked up at Yang Jian with his small face up, and then put on an innocent look, and said in a childish voice: "Father is just going to the court to discuss, don't miss the time, go quickly stop!"
Yang Jian also smiled and said: "That's right, Jian and Zai Otsuka are just going to the court to discuss, you don't have to worry, just wait here."
The imperial guard said loudly: "Zai Otsuka, general of the town army, please!"
Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu did not hesitate, walked forward, and soon reached the gate of Zhengwu Hall.
Inside the hall.
The ministers came all over the place, if it was a court meeting, the scale would be a bit too big, but if it was not a court meeting, like Sui Guogong Yang Zhong, Hushi General Yu Wenhui, and Cheqi General Yang Zheng. None of his official titles went to the palace, and it was really weird.
The hall is empty and majestic, and the imperial guards are holding halberds, lined up at the gate of the Zhengwu Hall, guarding them fiercely. A young man stands in the center of the Zhengwu Hall, surrounded by the officials, with the momentum of stars holding the moon.
This boy is young, tall, and has a long oval face. At first glance, he looks coquettish and handsome, revealing a demeanor that is indifferent to the world, but on closer inspection, this person has raised eyebrows, drooping eyes, slightly The feeling of triangular eyes is not ugly. When smiling, it is full of gentleness and concern. When not smiling, it reveals a shrewd energy of careful calculation.
This person must be Zhou Lord Yu Wenyong's younger brother, the seventh oldest Zhao Guogong——Yu Wenzhao!
Now that Zhou Lord Yu Wenyong passed away, the imperial court fell apart immediately, and many factions splintered out. Yu Wenzhao had always been elegant and talented. Although his faction was not the most numerous, it still had followers and admirers.
Yu Wenzhao was standing in the main hall of the Zhengwu Hall, an official stepped forward and whispered in Yu Wenzhao's ear, "Duke, that man has already entered the palace, and immediately... he will enter the Zhengwu Hall."
Yu Wenzhao restrained his pleasant smile, raised his eyebrows slightly, and shrewd triangular eyes, all of which made him look calculating and good at hypocrisy.
Yu Wenzhao said in a low voice, "Have the guards been replaced?"
The official said: "Yes, according to Zhao Gong's intention, all of them will be replaced by our own people. As soon as that guy enters Zhengwu Hall, then..."
The official did not continue, but raised his hand slightly, put his five fingers together, and tapped lightly on the palm of his hand.
Yu Wenzhao narrowed his eyes and said, "That man is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so there must be no mistakes, it is better to be careful."
The official nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Zhao, please don't worry. As long as Mr. Zhao gives an order, the subordinates have already found all 23 crimes against the man, and read them out in the hall. Please ask the Queen Mother to issue an order. Since Yu Wenzhi was left out in the cold, Only you, Mr. Zhao, are the most favored by the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager naturally believes in her own family, but not that outsider, Haner, so why not worry that this imperial court belongs to you, Mr. Zhao?"
When Yu Wenzhao heard this, he raised his hand, signaled the officials to stop talking, and said, "Shut up."
"Yes Yes."
Yu Wenzhao was making plans with the officials when he heard the sound of communication from outside, Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu arrived, followed by the sound of "boom—boom—" the majestic gate of Zhengwu Hall was slowly pushed open, The two figures were drawn long by the setting sun, projected on the ground of Zhengwu Hall, and walked in slowly.
It's Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu!
When Yang Jian left Chang'an, he was just a "little" town army general.
When Yang Jian returned to Chang'an, he was still just a "little" general of the town army. His official rank had not been promoted, but the soldiers and horses in his hands had rapidly expanded, and the number of troops was overwhelming.
Everyone watched Yang Jian walk in, and they all held their breath, subconsciously holding their breath, not daring to take a breath.
Yu Wenzhao stood among the crowd, in the middle of the hall, with his hands behind his back. The moment he saw Yang Jian, his hands behind his back couldn't help but also tightened, as if he was a little nervous.
Yu Wenzhao coughed lightly, and said in a master's attitude and tone, "Since you are all here, please invite the Queen Mother."
"Please Queen Mother!"
The officials lowered their heads and heard the sound of guards of honor. The Empress Dowager Chinu came out slowly and sat at the top of the Zhengwu Hall. She hung down the jade curtain to isolate herself from the officials. They immediately bowed down and said they were paying their respects to the Empress Dowager.
During this trip, the empress dowager's two sons, Yu Wenyong and Yu Wenzhi, were all gone. When the empress dowager saw Yu Wenhu, she immediately said, "Master Otsuka, please tell me what's going on... the lord... "
When she said this, it seemed that some mechanism had been activated, and in an instant the court burst into tears.
"My God..."
"Master, why did you go like this..."
"My lord, are you going to accompany the former lord? Why don't you take this old minister with you, my lord? This old official also wants to accompany you!"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced around Zhengwu Hall, which looked like a large-scale symphony. His eyes turned and fell on Yu Wenzhao. Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao was obviously sizing up Yang Jian secretly, but he did not expect to be caught by Yang Jian. Right now, he just wanted to look away without any trace, but Yang Jian didn't give him this chance, he had already smiled at Yuwen and nodded slightly.
Yu Wenzhao coughed again, and said in a voice that suppressed his grief: "Everyone, the Lord has passed away. Although we are heartbroken and angry, the Lord certainly does not want to see the imperial court collapse. Only when the matter is completed can we repay the host’s kindness, isn’t it?”
"It's exactly..."
"Mr. Zhao is right..."
As soon as Zhao Guogong Yuwen Zhao's voice fell, he turned his head to look at Yang Jian, as if he was about to make trouble, his slender eyebrows were raised even more, all the tenderness, concern, and suaveness disappeared in an instant, and his face was a bit mean and cold He said coldly: "On the contrary, I would like to ask the general of the town army, the master... how did he die?"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows, it's here, isn't it here?Finally got into trouble.
Yang Jian's attitude was respectful, neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "The funeral report of the owner's death should have arrived in Chang'an, just like what was written in the funeral report, the owner personally led the army and conquered Jinyang. The east side of Jinyang is narrow. Encountered an ambush, unfortunately collapsed and among the chaos of soldiers, in fact... when the owner died, the humble general was at Fenshui Pass, so I don't know much about the details. If the Queen Mother, Zhao Gong and you have any questions, the humble general thinks, It would be safer to ask Otsuka Zai who was in Jinyang at the time."
Good guy, really good guy, when everyone heard it, play football!This is obviously kicking a football, kicking such a big iron ball in front of Otsuka Zaiyu Wenhu.
Who doesn't know that Otsuka Zai plays a very important role in the court and has always been iron-blooded, who dares to question Otsuka Zai?
Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao's face was a little stiff. He had already prepared 23 crimes. He was waiting for an opportunity to make an opening statement. He read it out on the spot, and then used the Queen Mother's power to escort Yang Jian and seize his military power. Everything was solved easily. .
Who knew that Yang Jian would play the ball stubbornly with him, kicking the ball in front of Otsuka Zaiyu Wenhu.
Yuwenhu is the cousin of the owner Yuwenyong. To put it bluntly, Yuwenhu is actually a royal bloodline. Although it is slightly more tortuous than the bloodline of Zhao Guogong Yuwenzhao, Yuwenhu himself also supports parties in the court, and there are quite a few parties .
As soon as many people heard about Yu Wenyong's death, they wanted to recommend the most powerful Zai Otsuka. To put it bluntly, Yu Wenzhao was also in competition with him.
Now that Yu Wenzhao wanted to remove Yang Jian's military power, he had no reason to offend both of them at once, and also offended Yu Wenhu, so Yang Jian kicked the ball in front of Yu Wenhu, and Yu Wenzhao had no way at all.
Yu Wenzhao wanted to attack again, he had prepared several plans, but Yang Jian suddenly spoke up, and said first: "Actually... the humble general is also puzzled by something, and wants to ask Mr. Zhao."
Yang Jian didn't give Yuwen any chance to interrupt, and continued to say: "On the way back to the court, the humble general was attacked by assassin dead men, who lit poisonous gas in the bonfire, and almost killed tens of thousands of my Zhou army. , The practice is vicious and natural, and it is extremely venomous! Excuse me, Mr. Zhao, do you know who sent these dead men?"
Yu Wenzhao frowned fiercely, denied it categorically, and said, "I've been in Chang'an all along, how did I know?"
"Oh? Is that so?" Yang Jian smiled faintly and said, "But as far as I know, these assassins... confessed to you at the behest of Mr. Zhao."
"What... what?" Yu Wenzhao's expression stiffened immediately, and he also stuttered.
The assassin was indeed sent by Yuwen Zhao. In fact, when Yu Wenzhao heard that Yang Jian entered Chang'an, he already knew that the assassin's assassination had failed, but he never expected that the assassin who had been selected by thousands of people would betray him?
Yu Wenzhao thought that those assassins who were defeated would definitely commit suicide and rot the secret in their stomachs, but who knew that such a situation would happen?
Yu Wenzhao said straightforwardly: "General Zhenjun, what do you mean? Could it be that you suspect me? Those assassins must have been provoked by others to deliberately frame me."
Yang Jian said: "Really? Actually... the humble general also thought the same way. In order to return Mr. Zhao to your innocence, the humble general arrested these assassins on purpose, and escorted them all tied up. At this time, they were already at the gate of the palace. I also ask the Empress Dowager to be clear, and escort the assassins to confront them in court, so as not to frame the royal family, disturb the audience, and interfere with the court!"
Yu Wenzhao's heart was beating wildly, but his face pretended to be calm, and said: "Assassins are dangerous, I don't think there is any need..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Jian said with a smile: "The assassin has already been caught, what's more, Mr. Zhao, didn't you have placed hundreds of guards outside the hall? Why can't you catch a few little assassins? "
Yu Wenzhao's face turned extremely ugly, he wanted to preemptively strike, but the current situation was turned upside down instantly, and he was led by the nose by Yang Jian, extremely passive.
The queen mother didn't know that the matter of the assassin was arranged by Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao, and Yang Jian's request to summon the assassin was reasonable, so the queen mother naturally didn't stop her, saying: "Is there anyone so bold? Let's interrogate the assassin."
Yu Wenzhao bit his lower lip, watched helplessly as the gate of the Zhengwu Hall opened, and the guards escorted the assassins into the hall. Sure enough, Yu Wenzhao knew all of those assassins, even when they turned into ashes.
The assassin knelt on the ground, the assassin who had been chosen out of thousands, betrayed his master at this critical moment, and even killed Yu Wenzhao. say.
In fact, Yang Jian didn't need them to talk, so he took out a few pieces of honey scented paper from his wide sleeves, shook them open with a "crash", unfolded them for everyone to watch, and said: "Please look at the Queen Mother and the ministers, this is the assassin's confession." The blood book, clearly and plainly, clearly states the person who instigated it."
Yu Wenzhao couldn't see clearly, but the ministers had already erupted into a commotion...
"It's Zhao Guogong!"
"Mr. Zhao! Is it really Mr. Zhao?"
"Mr. Zhao actually sent a deadly assassin, this... this approach is too..."
Everyone secretly cast guessing glances at Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao, and Yu Wenzhao panicked instantly. Seeing the blood book, the queen mother said coldly, "Zhao Guogong, what is going on!"
The queen mother's two biological sons are gone, and the remaining sons have no blood relationship with her. To put it bluntly, these princes have their own mothers. If they come to power, the queen mother will no longer be the queen mother, so the queen mother is now a The bowl of water is flat and impartial, so naturally it will not favor Yu Wenzhao.
Yu Wenzhao's throat tightened. He wanted to punish Yang Jian, but Yang Jian launched the attack first. The 23 crimes he had prepared hadn't been used yet, but he was accused of one, and quickly said: "The queen mother has learned! Just relying on this... This blood book is not enough evidence, it is framing the child... This is definitely, it is framed..."
"The humble general thinks so too."
As soon as Yu Wenzhao finished speaking, the first person to answer him was Yang Jian who took out the blood book!
Yu Wenzhao was stunned immediately, staring at Yang Jian strangely and incredulously, not only him, but all the ministers were also strange, shouldn't Yang Jian tear himself apart from Yu Wenzhao at this time, wishing he could drag his hair and swear in the Zhengwu Hall, both sides would suffer ?
why...
Why is it that Yang Jian is so talkative all of a sudden, he can kill Yuwen's tricks, but he left him a living and took the initiative to step down?
Yang Jian said with a smile: "Dead warriors and assassins are by no means good people, and Zhao Guogong worked hard for the world of Zhou and abided by the rules. Now that the leader is dead and the officials are sad and angry, under such circumstances, are we willing to believe in assassins? Are you one of your own?"
What a white lotus, Yang Jian pretended to be a white lotus, that's easy.
Yang Jian continued to say righteously: "Without the leadership of the Lord, perhaps the Great Zhou was at its most difficult time, but the humble general thought that as long as the officials were united and the Queen Mother sat down, they would definitely be able to tide over the difficulties and revive the Great Zhou. .”
Not only did he talk about all the big guys, but he also put a high hat on the Queen Mother.
Yu Wenzhao's face trembled, and Yang Jian became a good person, but he couldn't do it if he didn't go down this step.
"Hiss - hiss -"
Yang Jian split his hands, and suddenly tore the blood books one by one, tearing them into pieces, shaking his hands, throwing them all over the sky, and pieces of paper fluttered in the Zhengwu Hall, like butterflies, or like flying The white snow is more like... paper money for the dead.
Yang Jian said: "The humble general will never believe that Duke Zhao will do such lowly things as harming his colleagues. There must be some misunderstanding, right, Duke Zhao?"
Yu Wenzhao's forehead twitched twice, took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and then slowly said: "Exactly, what General Zhenjun... said is exactly."
Yang Jian nodded, turned around, faced the group of officials, and said: "When the lord dies, all the ministers are grieved. The humble general thinks that the most urgent thing is to bury the lord. The burial is a big event, and we must not let it go hastily. You can also do our best to be loyal and filial as ministers, can't you?"
When everyone heard it, they seemed unable to refute it. Indeed, Yu Wenyong passed away and hadn't been buried yet, nor did he have the etiquette to prepare for the burial.
Yang Jian proposed to be buried. If Yu Wenzhao impeached Yang Jian under such circumstances, it would appear a bit mean, regardless of priority and quick success.
In addition, Yang Jian tore up the bloody letter accusing Yu Wenzhao just now, and some officials who had not yet stood in line also favored Yang Jian, Yu Wenzhao became more passive, and had already missed a great opportunity, so he could only admit it and swallow it.
The Empress Dowager nodded and said: "The burial is an important matter, and you must not let it go lightly. If you leave this matter to others, I am not at ease. Let it be left to Otsuka."
Yu Wenhu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Yes, the minister has received the edict."
It has been a long time since Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu entered the Zhengwu Hall, the sun was slowly sinking to the west, the sky was dim and yellow, and the unique darkness and coldness of winter slowly climbed up the walls of the Great Zhou Palace, covering the entire palace.
Everyone stood in the cold wind of midwinter, their hearts gradually became uneasy, Yu Wenhui said in a low voice: "It's been too long, I've been there for so long, and there is no movement in Zhengwu Hall, no way..."
As he spoke, he was about to move forward, but the imperial guards immediately stopped him with their halberds and said, "General Hussars, please don't make it difficult for me to wait!"
Yu Wenhui said in a cold voice: "Embarrassing? You are right, I like embarrassing others the most!"
"Crack!" he said, grabbing the Praetorian's halberd with a snap.
Seeing that Yuwenhui was about to clash with the imperial guards, Yang Guang frowned, and suddenly said, "Here we come."
coming!
It was Yang Jian and Yu Wenhu, as expected, they really came back, they were all beards and shadows, not a single hair was missing.
As soon as Yang Jian came over, Yang Zhong, Yang Zheng and Yang Zan all rushed forward, and Yang Zhong quickly said, "My son, it's okay!"
Yang Zheng also said: "Brother, how are you doing!?"
Yang Zan said, "Are you injured?"
Yang Jian stretched out his arms to let them observe him, and said with a smile, "What could be the matter? Grandpa and the two younger brothers are just worrying about nothing."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they were full of suspicion, and the imperial guards were dispatched. In such a big battle, Yang Jian was fine and laughed so easily?
Yang Jian squatted down, picked Yang Guang up, rubbed Yang Guang's little face, and said, "My dear son, you see that everyone cares about father and father so much, doesn't the son care about father and father?"
Yang Guang glanced at Yang Jian sideways, and said, "What are you worried about? Yu Wenzhao is no match for his father at all, so why should my son worry so much?"
Yang Jian gave a "tsk" and said, "Son, you are so unlovable, father and father will 'transfer love'."
Yang Guang's eyelids twitched, Yang Jian raised a faint smile, let Yang Guang sit on his arm, freed up his other hand, poked Yang Guang's chubby little face, and said, "Good boy, Show your father and father a cute look."
Yang Guang: "..."
Yang Guang glanced helplessly at Yang Jian, Yang Jian was not serious, it seemed that there was no need to worry about the matter of the Zhengwu Palace, and the resolution went smoothly.
Yang Guang coughed slightly, turned his heart to one side, and changed his face as if he changed into an innocent, peerless and pitiful child in an instant, with his fleshy face raised, and his two small arms wrapped around Yang Jian's neck. , dangling back and forth, said in a childish voice: "Father, father is the hottest!"
Yang Jian nodded, and said in an unsatisfactory way: "One more thing, I like father and father the most."
Yang Guang: "..."
Yang Guang's eyelids twitched again, and he said bravely, "The most, the most spicy food!" Hah——!
Only then did Yang Jian raise a good father's smile in satisfaction, and said, "My son is so sweet." And it's all natural and sugar-free.
Yang Jian said to everyone: "Let's go, let's go out of the palace first, everyone is tired after going out this time, so it's serious to go back and rest."
Indeed, it was already winter when I returned from this trip, and Chang'an was much colder.
Everyone went back to their homes, of course, Gao Changgong, Gao Yanzong and other newcomers followed Yang Jian to the Duke of Sui's mansion, fortunately Yang Zhong was a Duke of the country and the mansion was spacious enough.
When Yang Jian and the others came to the bus station, they saw a figure hovering under the dead tree branches, like a kite with a broken string. Her figure was slender, even thin, shivering in the cold wind, and she had a kind of charming feeling. sorrow.
Yang Guang was still sitting in Yang Jian's arms, when he saw the woman, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked at Yang Jian gloatingly, there was no doubt that this person was Yu Wenyong's younger sister, Princess Shunyang.
Princess Shunyang was waiting at the bus station, apparently waiting for them. When she heard footsteps, she raised her head and met Yang Jian's eyes.
Yang Jian rubbed his forehead, Yang Guang raised his chubby mouth slantingly, and said with a soft smile: "Father, Princess Shunyang really has a deep affection for her father, but... if my son If I remember correctly, Princess Shunyang is my father's future sibling, and my father's accounts are really muddled and messed up."
Listening to his son's ridicule, Yang Jian felt a dull pain in his forehead. That's right. If Yang Jian and Yang Guang remembered correctly, the historical Princess Shunyang who married King Tengmu, the third younger brother of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, was none other than Yang Zan. !
According to Yang Guang's memory, the relationship between the third son Yang Zan and his father has never been very good. Yang Zan was infatuated with Princess Shunyang. With the dictatorship of the elder brother, he plotted again and again, trying to kill the elder brother secretly.
Later, when Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty came to the throne, it was discovered that Yang Zan's wife, Princess Shunyang, planned a witchcraft curse. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered Yang Zan to divorce his wife.In the end, Yang Zan hunted with Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty in the Liyuan Garden, and died of an inexplicable illness. There are rumors in the market that it was Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty who gave poisoned wine to kill Yang Zan...
Princess Shunyang looked over, Yang Jian turned his eyes away, he had clearly rejected Princess Shunyang last time, so this time he didn't want to say anything more, and directly carried the little bun Yang Guang onto the carriage.
Princess Shunyang wanted to call Yang Jian to stop, but she couldn't speak. She watched Yang Jian get on the carriage and "ruthlessly" lowered the curtain.
Yang Jian got into the car, Princess Shunyang looked at Yang Zan, and suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
Yang Zan didn't expect Princess Shunyang to call him back, so he paused for a while, looked back at Princess Shunyang, and Princess Shunyang said in a low voice, "I have something... I want to tell you."
Yang Zan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and stood still. The others got into the carriage, and Yang Jian didn't stop him, saying, "Third brother, let's go back first."
Yang Zan said: "Brother will go back on his own in a while."
Yang Zheng's memory hadn't fully recovered yet, he looked strangely at the youngest Yang Zan and Princess Shunyang under the carriage, and said, "Brother, who is this woman?"
Yang Jian said with a smile, "It's the infatuated sweetheart of your silly brother."
Yang Zheng suddenly realized, nodded, and said: "It seems that I have such an impression, but...why does this woman look at the elder brother's eyes so strangely?"
Yang Jian: "..." I almost forgot, the second child is a little expert in making complaints!
The carriage started quickly, and the figures of Yang Zan and Princess Shunyang became farther and farther away, becoming more and more blurred, and slowly disappeared into the distance of the bus station. Do it, I will go back later, you go back first."
As Yang Zheng said, he quickly jumped out of the cart and ran back without waiting for the cart to stop.
Yang Jian lifted the curtains of the car, looked back at Yang Zheng, shook his head and said, "What are you doing in such a hurry?"
But Yang Zan stayed there, and said to Princess Shunyang, "I don't know if the princess is looking for a humble minister, what's the matter?"
Princess Shunyang lowered her head, tore at the corner of her clothes, and whispered: "I...I know your feelings for me, so you will not deceive me...I want to know...Brother Emperor...Brother Emperor... How it died."
Yang Zan suddenly realized that what Princess Shunyang wanted to ask was Yu Wenyong's death.
Princess Shunyang said again: "There has been gossip in the court, is it... is it the prince..."
"No!" Yang Zan immediately denied it, with a very firm attitude, and said: "This humble minister did not deceive the princess, nor did he lie, and he is indeed not the eldest brother. When the lord passed away, the elder brother was at Fenshui Pass, far away, humble You can use your head as a guarantee, and the rumors and rumors in the court must not be true!"
When Princess Shunyang heard what Yang Zan said, her expression gradually relaxed, and she said, "Is that so...that's good, that's good..."
As he spoke, he walked slowly into the distance in a daze, without looking at Yang Zan again.
Yang Zan stood upright in the cold wind at the bus station, watched Princess Shunyang go away from a distance, sighed slightly, it was inaudible, and was instantly blown away by the cold wind, disappearing without a trace.
At this moment, someone laughed lightly, the laughter was frivolous, Yang Zan immediately became alert, and when he looked back, someone was standing quietly behind Yang Zan, wearing a royal robe, holding his waist Fan, raised eyebrows thinly, deep lying silkworms, and a gentle and caring smile.
It was Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao!
Yuwen walked over with his waist fan waving, and said with a smile, "Isn't this Lord Sanlang? Why are you sighing here? Oh yes..."
Before Yang Zan could answer, Yu Wenzhao said with a smile: "It must be because of my sister again... My sister is too ignorant of Master Sanlang's intentions. If you ask me, Master Sanlang's infatuation can be learned from heaven and earth. The son of honour, loves you deeply."
Yang Zan ignored him and turned to leave, "Crack!" Yu Wenzhao grabbed Yang Zan's hand and said, "You don't want to know what my sister thinks?"
Yang Zan was held back by Yuwenzhao, and stared at Yuwenzhao with a frown. At the same time, he heard a soft "rustle", like the sound of wind blowing leaves, which was almost imperceptible.
A figure appeared in the bus department, it was Yang Zheng!
The second brother Yang Zheng had just seen Zhao Guogong Yu Wenzhao enter the bus office. Before Yu Wenzhao was still embarrassing his elder brother Yang Jian, Yang Zheng was worried that the third brother Yang Zan was alone, and suddenly jumped out of the car in a hurry and chased him back.
Yang Zheng watched Yu Wenzhao grab Yang Zan, and immediately wanted to step forward, but just as he took a step, he suddenly stopped, and slowly retreated, hiding in the shadows, and did not show up immediately.
Yang Zan shook his hand, shook off the shackles of Yu Wenzhao, "snapped" his sleeve robe, and said lightly: "How Princess Shunyang thinks of me is her own business, and it doesn't get in the way. I can't bother Mr. Zhao, so I don't bother Mr. Zhao to worry about it."
After all, turn around and leave.
"Yang Zan!"
Yu Wenzhao shouted to stop him, stepped over, stopped Yang Zan again, and said, "Didn't you always look down on your foolish elder brother? Why, have you changed your temper?"
When Yang Jian first came here, the relationship with his brothers was indeed not very good, not close, even a little strange, and it could be seen that the youngest, Yang Zan, looked down on Yang Jian very much, as if he had a lot of complaints about Yang Jian.
However, after the whole family got along, they quickly became one with each other. After all, they were brothers and friends, and the family was harmonious.
When Yu Wenzhao mentioned this matter now, Yang Zan couldn't help but frowned. He hadn't thought about it carefully all along. Maybe a long time ago, the relationship between himself and his eldest brother was indeed not harmonious, but he didn't know where it started to change. Yang Zan never thought about it again. Thought about this kind of thing.
Yu Wenzhao said: "Your eldest brother, it's just that he has grown older. He had a good pregnancy and became the eldest son. If he is not the eldest son, what is better than you? My younger sister is also true. I just saw it. His appearance, but ignored you, the all-rounder of civil and military skills, Lord Saburo!"
Yang Zan frowned and said, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Yu Wenzhao smiled faintly, lowered his voice, and said in Yang Zan's ear: "Think about it, if there is no son of the Duke of Sui in this world, you are also the son of the Duke of Sui, and the number one talented man in Jingzhao. Having both, wouldn’t it be a logical succession for the heir? If there is no heir of Sui Guogong in this world, how can my blind and stupid sister not see you, a shining pearl?"
Yu Wenzhao raised his hand, "Pa...pa..." He patted Yang Zan's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "Think clearly, if you cooperate with me, I can match you and my sister, My little sister is just not enlightened, if my brother mentions it
