Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 308
"To make a long story short, what are you doing here?"

Yang Zhirou didn't believe what Jin Zhizhao said was a safe journey, and he didn't even invite them to the hospital, so he just stood there and asked.

Jin Zhizhao's face turned ugly, but he hurriedly said: "It's the slave meeting place in Beishi. The governor of the capital was dismissed and replaced, and many of us were forcibly searched. Even the Chengyi Chamber of Commerce is in danger of being banned. I hope Shilang Yang can stop it." .”

Yang Zhirou inquired about several details, and frowned: "Slaves are indeed under the control of my household department, but according to what you said, those slaves were bought, not forcibly plundered, so my household department can't intervene. It has nothing to do with me, there is no excuse for interfering rashly..."

Jin Zhizhao pleaded: "We also know that this matter is difficult, but there is really no other way now, and I hope Yang Shilang will give advice."

Yang Zhirou asked: "Do you think Li Yuanfang is behind this incident?"

Jin Zhizhao said bitterly: "Jin Liangtu was single-handedly picked by Li Yuanfang, and Gong Siguang was also his hand. They appeared together in Beishi to search for slaves. Obviously, they are inseparable from Li Yuanfang."

Yang Zhirou said in a concentrated voice: "Then what did he find?"

Jin Zhizhao sighed: "I don't know, maybe it's from the dead soldiers raised by Gong Siye that this person's accomplishments are more than failures, and he really shouldn't be united with him at the beginning..."

Yang Zhirou was silent for a moment, with a heavy expression on his face: "To tell you the truth, the matter of Beiya Baiqi is not over yet. The crown prince ordered Pei Sijian to wipe out the army fields in Luozhou, and arrest all the children of the Gong family and other families who invaded the army fields. This is not the end, Beiya Baiqi is the personal guard of the sage, and there is a traitor among them, once the inner guard finds out, they will definitely investigate to the end!"

Jin Zhizhao's complexion changed: "Could it be that someone from Baiqi can identify Yang Shilang?"

Yang Zhiju said: "Only one of the hundred riders knows me. This person's father is my Yang family's personal guard. Later, he joined the Bei Yamen. He is good at marksmanship. He has a meticulous mind and is unlikely to be exposed."

"Fortunately, that person and I, Mr. Yang, have some superficial contradictions. If he is arrested and identifies me, I can show the past to prove that this person is harboring a grudge and intentionally slandering him."

"And I am the servant of the household department. Li Yuanfang can't touch me easily, but he can't be caught with some evidence. Do you understand?"

Facing the other party's gaze, Jin Zhizhao's face changed, and the intention of chasing guests was too obvious.

Yang Zaiwei said clearly: "After all, Yang Shilang wants us to leave?"

Yang Zhirou heard that his tone was not friendly, and hurriedly said: "This must be brother Zuo Ming's first apprentice?"

Yang Zaiwei clenched his fists and stared at him: "Does Shi Lang want us to leave immediately?"

Yang Zhirou's pupils narrowed slightly: "I'm afraid my nephew has misunderstood. I definitely don't want to be wise and safe, so I refuse to take the two of you in. It's really not safe for me here, I'm afraid I will drag you down..."

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Jin Zhizhao hurriedly said to ease it: "Uncle Yang, forgive me, my senior brother is also concerned about my injury, and I only offended him when I was emotional. If the slave market in Beishi is sealed up, we have nowhere to go. We can only hope Uncle Yang took him in."

Hearing her calling herself uncle, Yang Zhirou's eyes flashed a hint of hidden displeasure, and after pondering for a while, he asked, "Do you two know Dou Luqianwang?"

Jin Zhizhao nodded: "He is the leader of the inner guard cabinet, the prince and the common people, but he supported the queen before, but now he has lost power. What does Uncle Yang mean?"

Yang Zhiju said: "The leader of Doulu Pavilion is my friend. He came to visit me before, and because Li Yuanfang supported this person's arch enemy Cui Xiuye ​​as the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, he proposed to deal with Li Yuanfang, and even thought of a way."

Jin Zhizhao lifted his spirits: "Uncle Yang please give me advice."

Yang Zhiju said: "Li Yuanfang has an apprentice who is a criminal daughter of the Shangguan family. He is going to wash away her guilt and restore her surname."

"The leader of Doulu Pavilion wants to make a fuss from here, and also said that this woman has been in and out of the palace recently, maybe you can pay attention to it..."

"Although this method is disgraceful, it is indeed effective. If you can take her down, there may be room for things to turn around."

Hearing this, Yang Zaiwei flicked his sleeves: "It's ridiculous. Why didn't he say that he would go to Chang'an to kidnap Li Yuanfang's father, Duke of Wei Li Dejian? What kind of nonsense idea, that Dou Lu Qinwang is really an idiot!"

Jin Zhizhao also shook his head: "Taking a shot at a child, if the threat is really successful, it will also intensify the anger and cause a full-scale counterattack. What I have to do now is to calm the matter and confront the Tang court head-on. It is definitely not good. "

Yang Zhirou's cheek muscles twitched, and sighed: "The two nephews are very sensible, and I actually think so, but the matter has come to this point, I have no other choice."

Yang Zaiwei didn't like this: "Don't change the subject, take it or not, give me a word, if you really want us to go..."

Jin Zhizhao hurriedly picked it up: "We'll just recuperate for a few days, and when the injury recovers, we'll leave immediately!"

Seeing that these two people were entangled, Yang Zhirou had a headache, and could only squeeze out a smile: "Since you two don't dislike them, my family is willing to receive them, please come with me!"

Yang Zhirou personally led the way, led them into the inner house, and chose a relatively spacious room.

The mansion of the servant of the household department is naturally not comparable to that of a mere slave merchant. After Yang Zhirou said a few words, he turned and left, leaving his confidants to take care of him.

Jin Zhizhao was also not polite, and asked the servants of the Yang family to cook some nourishing soup and medicine, and after drinking it, he began to heal his wounds skillfully.

When she opened her eyes, she found that Yang Zaiwei was standing aside, her face still angry, and her anger was hard to suppress, she couldn't help sighing: "Senior brother, it's human nature for Minister Yang to be afraid of being implicated by us, why do you have such an attitude?"

Yang Zaiwei said bitterly: "It's because of my old grievances! You don't know, Guanwangfang is the largest house of the Hongnong Yang family. I was kidnapped when I was young. My father begged them to come out and uphold justice. Guanwangfang not only ignored it, And humiliated."

"It's fine if you don't want to help. My father asks for help, and there is no reason to help. But after all, we are of the same family, how can we make trouble?"

"Famous sects in the country? Bah, these high-ranking nobles are beautiful on the surface, but they are cold and hypocritical on the inside, and there are not many good people! Didn't you find out just now that he looks polite, but actually looks down on us at all!"

Jin Zhizhao's expression also became ugly: "He should look down on me, that's all, now is not the time for internal strife, we have to use Yang Zhirou's power to solve the plight of the slave meeting place."

Yang Zaiwei shook his head: "Since the capital's lawsuit is being investigated vigorously, the slave association will not be able to keep it. It is better to make a decisive decision and withdraw in time."

Jin Zhizhao thought about it, but he was very unwilling, and suddenly said: "Brother, you can help me find out about the matter of the Beiya Baiqi. I still want to try my best to restore whether Yang Zhirou's words are true or not."

Yang Zaiwei pursed his lips, a little unwilling, but finally sighed: "Okay."

Jin Zhizhao showed a look of admiration: "It's better to be a senior brother. When the master is not around, the senior brother will take care of us."

Yang Zaiwei smiled, and closed the curtain for her: "No matter what, this Yang Mansion is safe after all, you can rest at ease, and the important thing is to heal your injuries, good night!"

"good night!"

The two tossed and tossed for most of the night, and they were very depressed and exhausted. They each said good night to each other and fell asleep.

Hearing the sound of steady breathing coming from the house, Li Yan, who was standing on the roof with his hands behind his back, also said in his heart: "Thank you for leading the way, good night~"

……

"Give me the post about Yang Zhirou, the minister of household affairs."

Back at Li's mansion, Li Yan asked General Xu's mansion to find out the posts again.

Seeing that Xiao Lang didn't come back, Xu Da and the others knew that they must have stayed up late tonight, so they quickly sorted out the posts and said: "There is no greeting card from Minister Yang, only one invitation card."

Li Yan took the invitation and opened it, looking at the Zhouzheng font on it, his eyes flickered coldly: "Despicable and shameless, the way to die!"

Although there was a killing intent in his heart, Li Yan did not underestimate this person.

The Household Department is in charge of land, taxation and household registration throughout the country, so it is not insignificant. Yang Zhirou has been the servant of the Household Department for nine years. In addition, he was born in Guanwangfang, the highest ranking member of the Hongnong Yang family. He has a wide network of contacts and many party members. It is no exaggeration to say that his power is second only to the prime minister.

So as early as in the cottage, Qiu Shenji interrogated Zheng Sanlang who murdered his colleagues, dismembered his body and hid his head. After he found out that Yang Zhirou was behind the scenes, Li Yan's procedure was to first come to Luoyang to find out the situation of Gong's involvement in the case, and then talk about other things.

One is that the crown prince brought hundreds of officials into Luoyang, and Gong, as the head snake of Luoyang, should be the first to solve the threat if he harbors evil intentions and the threat is more urgent;
The other one is easy before difficult, if you want to move Yang Zhirou, even with the testimony of Beiya Baiqi, it will not be easy.

Facts have proved that this is true. This person is cautious, and he laid his hands down early. If Zheng Sanlang had a bad relationship with the Yang family in the early years, then his testimony would have the possibility of framing and framing Yang Zhirou. It is impossible to bring down Yang Zhirou.

It was not until Yang Zaiwei and Jin Zhizhao were taken in that the evidence was solid.

Finding these two assassins out of the mansion is impossible to argue with, not to mention the Minister of the Household Department, even the Minister of the Household Department of the third rank under Tong Zhongshu's family must be finished immediately.

However, Li Yan was a little hesitant about this.

After all, Yang Zhirou already had a huge suspicion, but now he just confirmed it, and he wanted to use Yang Zaiwei and Jin Zhizhao, the two scourges, to find some thieves he didn't know about.

"Forget it, it's better not to be greedy for too much. If there are no variables, all previous efforts will be wasted."

"These two leading parties have helped me find out the Silla proton, the slave merchants in Beishi, and the servant of the household department. If they can be wiped out, it will definitely be a serious blow to that group of thieves."

"Take them down for interrogation, and follow the clues to find out who is behind them. Don't worry about not having a chance to catch them all!"

Li Yan put down the invitation and began to write a letter, planning to let Yinger take it with him tomorrow morning, and fly to the stockade to inquire about the progress of Di Renjie and Qiu Shenji.

They and Cheng Wuzhong have been squatting in the stockade for more than half a month, and they haven't come to Luoyang yet. They must have discovered something, but there are priorities, and these two right-hand men are needed next.

After the arrangements were made, Li Yan fell asleep and soon fell asleep.

Raise your spirits and prepare to close the net!
