Chapter 473 Ultimate Truth
Under the moonlight.

The two masters and apprentices stood and looked at the Luosuo Governor's Mansion not far away, but their thoughts were thousands of miles away, even across time and space, back to twenty or thirty years ago.

Li Yandao: "For a long time, in my eyes, Yang Sijian has been a poor old man whose daughter was in trouble, but himself was demoted and suffered injustice."

"Even not long ago, it was discovered that he might not be dead, and it was believed that Mrs. Yang, who pretended to be the master and transformed into 'Zuo Ming', rescued her father. Her desire for revenge distorted the old man's heart."

"But from now on, the previous old concepts will be completely overthrown."

"The victim of one case is likely to be the perpetrator of another case. The reason is actually very simple. It's just a blind eye. After all, it is confused..."

"Master, this is the only thing that cannot be let go, because Yang Sijian is still alive and may do more crazy things!"

The dumb uncle took a light breath and nodded, his face extremely solemn.

Li Yan began to ask: "Since Yang Sijian was young, I only know that this person was born in Hongnong Yang's Guanwangfang. It seems that he is also related to the former Sui royal family?"

Dumb Uncle wrote: "Guanwangfang originated from Yang Weihui, a general of the imperial clan in the Sui Dynasty, who was the elder brother of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, he was granted the title of Guanwang in Jin Dynasty, and later generations are collectively called Guanwangfang."

"Yang Sijian is the nephew of Prince Guan. When he was young, he was graceful and elegant, well-behaved, good at calligraphy, and good at poetry."

"He has many poems, and has written fifteen volumes of anthology. He also co-edited works such as "Wen Si Bo Yao" and "Ancient and Modern Edict Collection" with Fang Xuanling and Gao Shilian. He later became a great scholar in the literary world."

Li Yandao: "In other words, Yang Sijian was already a famous Confucian scholar in the late Zhenguan Dynasty of Emperor Taizong. Do you have any specific details?"

The dumb uncle wrote: "No, I was not very familiar with him at first, it was just a casual acquaintance."

Li Yan asked calmly: "Until Mrs. Yang married into the eldest grandson's family?"

Uncle Dumb nodded, and stripped away his feelings as much as possible, and continued to write: "The princess died early, and the dog has been alone all the time. Later, he fell in love with Mrs. Yang and had the idea of ​​​​continuing the strings. I allowed him to take a concubine. I thought that at that time As a great Confucian, Yang Sijian would definitely not wish his daughter-in-law to be a concubine, but he still agreed, and I am very grateful for this..."

After a pause, Uncle Mute erased the last sentence and corrected it again: "At that time, I was arrogant and conceited, thinking that the so-called great Confucianists would also look up to my eldest grandson's prestige, and I was full of ambition..."

Li Yan looked at the handwriting full of remorse, sighed secretly, and continued to analyze: "Master, I also ignored a problem before. At that time, Master wanted to arrange an important position in the inner guard to monitor the officials. Trust, but also a considerable degree of concealment, the candidate is not easy to choose."

"Take me as an example. The confidants around me now, Di Renjie, Qiu Shenji, Guo Yuanzhen, Anshengan... other courtiers must study them carefully so as to grasp my movements."

"At that time, the master was the leader of the inner guard cabinet, under one person, above ten thousand people, those trusted confidantes, capable talents, must be seen by other courtiers, unless someone's energy Can be able to focus on two tasks and take care of two jobs, otherwise it is not suitable for sudden transfer."

"So at this time, an in-law that the officials don't know the deep connection between the two parties, but can trust, is really suitable."

Dumb Uncle wrote: "Actually, some people knew about Yang Sijian's marriage to a daughter. Mrs. Yang has a good reputation. When she suddenly left the cabinet, she couldn't hide it from others, especially Xu Jingzong. I have already sent someone to watch..."

Li Yandao: "Then who proposed the establishment of the Plum Blossom Internal Guard?"

The dumb uncle said: "I had an idea at first, and I talked to Quanzi a few words, but I was not ready to put it into action. After all, there are many taboos in it. Not long after, Yang Sijian brought a book and asked me to read it... ..."

Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Which book is it?"

Uncle Dumb wrote: ""Chen Gui"."

Li Yan thought of the "Chen Gui" lying quietly on his bookshelf without even turning a page. Do you require your courtiers to follow the rules? What a book, "The Guidance of Ministers", I think the Empress Dowager was very proud when she ordered the Beimen scholars to officially compile this book!"

Dumb uncle wrote: "I underestimated Empress Wu back then. Although the internal guards found out that Yang Sijian's line had taken in Wu's mother and daughter for a period of time, Lady Yang who had not left the cabinet was also the same as Second Lady Wu who had also not entered the palace. Old acquaintance, but didn't care at all."

"This kind of communication between aristocratic families is very normal. It wasn't until the incident happened that I suddenly realized that Yang Sijian was probably persuaded by Empress Wu at that time to deliberately instigate me to set up a department to monitor the ministers in the inner guard."

"This completely pushed me into a bottomless abyss."

Li Yan said in a deep voice: "Yes, how many people lost a lot because they underestimated Empress Wu..."

There is a TV series in later generations, which filmed Wu Zetian who was [-] or [-] years old and had not yet entered the palace, but she declared that she would ascend to the highest throne in the world.

Because Wu Zetian will become the emperor later, she has been ambitious since she was a child, and she is also the leader in becoming an empress. Everyone should be very afraid of her, and she is used to falling in love with unrelated people in TV dramas...

This is actually a different kind of labeling. In fact, even if Wu Zetian is the only female emperor through the ages, she is not much different from other harem women in the early stage, and she is just a pawn in political struggle.

Abolishing the empress is a political game between Li Zhi and the power minister, Changsun Wuji. During this process, Changsun Wuji never puts Empress Wu in his eyes, a woman from a poor family and a tainted former emperor. The protagonist is always Li Zhi.

However, this woman's ability is actually more threatening when she is not taken seriously, and it is even more wonderful to persuade Yang Sijian.

Li Yandao: "Yang Sijian persuaded Master with "Chen Gui" and set up the Plum Blossom Internal Guard? Was it called that at the time?"

Uncle Dumb shook his head: "Sister She likes plum blossoms, I wouldn't name them like that, back then they were called Dark Guards."

Li Yan: "..."

Isn't this a collision with the Tubo Gar family?

But that is also a derogatory name, the actual name is Yongzhong Shenwei, the inner guard who secretly monitors all officials, the name "Dark Guard" is actually very appropriate.

The dumb uncle continued to recall and wrote: "Yang Sijian first made a suggestion. I read "Chen Gui", and I felt contempt in my heart. The dignified Confucianism is so flattering, so I laughed and asked him if he would like to be the leader of the Dark Guard Pavilion. After thinking about it, I agreed, and quickly showed outstanding abilities, which I turned to appreciation, and gradually became my confidant."

Li Yan sighed: "Their father and daughter are very capable. When Mrs. Yang dressed up as 'Zuo Ming', she wore a broad robe and a mask on her face. They are father and daughter, is Yang Sijian's identity known only to the master?"

Uncle Dumb wrote: "At first I disdained his deeds, but later I considered his scholarly reputation and never made a public announcement. Even Shang Gong didn't know his true identity among the secret guards."

There is nothing to say next. Yang Sijian monitored the officials, seized their handles, and forced the officials not to say anything bad about Changsun Wuji. Behind the seemingly ulterior motives, it also aroused resentment. In the end, Li Ji was the representative. The military forces in the country stood up and stood unequivocally on Li Zhi's side, and the court situation was quickly reversed.

When Queen Wang was abolished and Empress Wu came to power, Changsun Wuji's power turned from prosperity to decline, and his prestige plummeted.

Li Yan asked: "Then Master thinks, why did Yang Sijian run for the Changsun family?"

Uncle Dumb wrote: "I was forced to commit suicide at that time, and I was rescued by Master Sanzang. I pretended to be a monk and worried about the safety of my tribe. Later, I found out that Yang Sijian called on the nobles in the pass to run around. I was moved. Later, I did what he did. The late emperor Change the whole family to copy and chop to exile in Lingnan."

Li Yan nodded slightly: "Master thought about it at the time without any doubts. After all, Mrs. Yang is also in the process of distribution. It is only natural for Yang Sijian to rescue her daughter."

"And what kind of thoughts this person was holding at the time, we don't know."

"Maybe it's because I feel ashamed for betraying Master's trust, and I can't bear to have the entire Changsun family be punished, or maybe it's because I just want to save my eldest daughter..."

"In any case, he did contribute a lot in it, but judging from what he did later, Yang Sijian may regret it very much."

The dumb uncle's body trembled slightly.

Finally came to the section that even he didn't want to look back.

Changsun's massacre of thousands of people.

He deeply understands the Buddha nature, and he did choose to let it go, but it doesn't mean that there is no pain in his heart. He is so indifferent to the death of the whole family, he just regards it as a tribulation, and he doesn't want to pursue the murderer hard. When will the injustice be repaid...

But at this time, the terrible truth was revealed. It was the same person who ran riskily to protect his people, and later planned to poison all his people.

"According to the current information, the person who actually did the massacre was not Yang Sijian, but probably a descendant of the former Sui inner guard from Silla, named Park Jung-eun..."

Li Yan explained the ins and outs of Park Jung-eun, including that after he destroyed Silla, he sent people to Japan to find members of the Park clan, and finally found that Park Jung-un's father was a former internal guard. This man had half the blood of the former Sui royal family. The sense of honor gave Wu Wang Li Ke the motivation to revenge.

Uncle Mute was startled when he heard that, this apprentice really worked hard in investigating the case, and then he couldn't help but fell silent when he heard the wronged soul of King Wu, with deep sadness in his eyes, and he was about to perform the Buddha ceremony again.

Li Yan interrupted the Buddhist conversion: "Master, this is not karma. Park Jung-eun thought he was avenging the king of Wu. In fact, Yang Sijian was using his relationship with the blood of the former Sui royal family to achieve his own goals. Otherwise, he would not be here later." Burn the lawsuit and destroy the evidence, for fear that others will find out about this case."

The dumb uncle collected himself, his fingers trembling slightly, and wrote on the ground, "Why?"

Li Yan said in a low voice: "Judging from the time, Yang Sijian, who became Si Wei Shaoqing at that time, will also face a big event. Miss Yang will marry His Highness the Crown Prince as his wife and become the future queen. He will be the king of the country. It's too long..."

The dumb uncle's pupils shrank suddenly: "So he is going to erase what he did in the past?"

Li Yan nodded: "Actually, this kind of analysis is in line with why Miss Yang was able to fall into the eyes of the empress. The former emperor's attitude towards his relatives has always been used but not worked hard."

"For example, He Lan Minzhi, who did such evil things and gained a huge handle, was left behind by the late emperor. As long as the late emperor is willing, He Lan Minzhi can be removed at any time to avoid the situation where his relatives are too big to lose."

"If Young Lady Yang wants to become the Crown Princess, her father was born in the most prominent royal house of the Hongnong Yang family, so if Yang Sijian is a foreign relative, what is the reason?"

"Looking back now, it seems logical."

"Yang Sijian is a secret guard who supervises all officials, and even betrayed his in-laws. If one day he becomes disobedient, such a past will ruin his reputation!"

"He is just the previous He Lanminzhi!"

"Of course, Yang Sijian at that time might not know enough about the empress."

"He didn't know that he was chosen because he had an unbearable past, and he was uneasy about it. After all, one daughter is a concubine and the other is a princess. The disparity in status is too great..."

"Maybe he regrets all the troubles before. Why did he run for the Changsun family and save the lives of the whole family?"

"After all, the Changsun family is the late emperor's mother clan. Someone must inherit the incense of the mother clan. If one day the remaining members of the Changsun clan are recalled from Lingnan, especially the return of the eldest son of the master and Mrs. Yang, he, the head of the country, will How to face it?"

"Just at this time, there is one more Silla man in Meihua's inner guard who still remembers the unjust case of King Wu and is willing to fight for it. Yang Sijian's evil thoughts may be born from this. If the Changsun family who was exiled in Lingnan can't come back at all, then what should I do? How nice."

"As a Confucian, he promised his daughter as a concubine..."

"He is a great Confucian, but he is the leader of the secret guard..."

"As a great Confucian, he betrayed his in-laws for profit..."

"All the bad things in the past will disappear with Park Jung-eun's move!"

"Pu Zhengen doesn't know this person's purpose. He has a sense of justice. To avenge King Wu, he even forged the theory of ghosts..."

"And during this process, because of Yang Sijian's status, Park Jung-un showed mercy to Mrs. Yang, so that she survived."

"But Yang Sijian probably doesn't care anymore."

"He doesn't even need to do it himself. The eldest grandson is gone. Why would he care about the eldest daughter who humiliated him because of love? As long as the younger daughter is happy."

"From now on, he, Yang Sijian, will still be a famous Confucian scholar, the emperor's in-laws, and the future head of state!"

Speaking of this, Li Yan also felt absurd:

"It's just a trick of good fortune. Yang Sijian never expected that Miss Yang would be targeted by He Lanminzhi before her wedding..."

"He tried every means to erase his past, thinking that he would usher in a happy tomorrow, but in the end, his own happiness was also erased by the empress!"
