Monument Yangmen

Chapter 362

Lu Meng was sitting, Yang Yansi was standing, and Cao Lin retreated to the side room after serving tea.

Yang Yansi held the tea bowl, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Brother Lu has something to do, just open your mouth, there is no need to say too many polite words between you and me."

Lu Meng was holding a tea bowl and didn't take a sip, just staring at Yang Yansi with a smile.

"Brother Yang Xian is quick to speak, so Lu will be impolite. I came to the door today, and I want to ask you something."

"Oh?"

Yang Yansi chuckled, "What's so important that you, a Hanlin scholar, can come to the door to talk about it in person?"

Lu Meng was just putting down his tea bowl, and said solemnly: "Your brother is now Zuo Zhengyan, and he has the right to write a letter. The position of the crown prince has been vacant for more than two years, and many princes are about to move. In order to protect the stability of the society and the well-being of the people, Lu begged my brother , Tomorrow, I will write a letter to your Majesty to enshrine the crown prince..."

Yang Yansi paused when he lifted the lid of the tea bowl, and looked at Lu Mengzheng in astonishment, "Is this what you mean, or what His Majesty means?"

Lv Meng straightened his back and said solemnly: "This is the meaning of Yushitai. In recent days, Yushitai has repeatedly received reports that many princes colluded with courtiers and behaved restlessly.

In order to calm people's hearts and help the country.It was a last resort. "

Yang Yansi put down the tea bowl in his hand, and said: "A few days ago, Song Hang wrote a letter asking His Majesty to appoint a crown prince. He was reprimanded by His Majesty, and sent him a thousand li. It can be seen that His Majesty has no intention of appointing a crown prince for the time being. Brother Lu asked me to continue writing, This is forcing me to go to thunder! This is not a good thing..."

Lu Mengzheng heard Yang Yansi's intention to evade, and hurriedly said: "My dear brother, two years ago, my righteous speech in the court hall is vivid in my mind. On that day, my virtuous brother did not hesitate to offend His Majesty, but he also wanted to speak out righteously. Now , it's about the country and the country, so my brother is going to back down?"

Yang Yansi shook his head and smiled, and said with emotion: "You said it too, two years ago. Back then, I was a fledgling and unsophisticated. I only did things with enthusiasm. Now, two years have passed, and I have matured more or less A few. I know, everything is not something that can be achieved by relying on passion.

Everything should be done according to the trend. If you go against the trend, I am afraid that you will end up in pieces. "

Lv Mengzheng stood up and said angrily: "Scholars of my generation have entered the court as officials. I should speak out with righteousness and go forward bravely. Brother, it is only two decades now, and it is the time of prime. Don't you want to learn from those mediocre officials? Do nothing for a lifetime?"

Yang Yansi sneered and said: "The situation of seizing the heir apparent is extremely dangerous. Those high-ranking and powerful people like the prime minister and the ruling party all call illnesses and avoid them. I am a small shrimp, and you drag me into the water because you dislike me for not dying fast enough?"

"Yang Yansi!"

Yang Yansi waved his hand, rejecting Lu Mengzheng and continuing.

He picked up the tea bowl and said with a light smile, "Young brother is injured because of being punished by my father. The doctors told me to stay in bed for more rest. I have been out for a long time, so I will stay outside as usual. Brother Lu Please go back. In the future, when my younger brother recovers from his injury, he will definitely visit the door in person."

Lu Meng groaned and glared at Yang Yansi, then cupped his hands indiscriminately.

"Farewell!"

As soon as Lu Meng was leaving, Cao Lin came out from the side room behind her, walked slowly to Yang Yansi's side, and asked, "Look at you two, didn't you have a good chat? Why did you suddenly drive him away?"

Yang Yansi smiled and said: "The minds of friendship are not pure enough. Then there is no need for this friend to continue."

Cao Lin embroidered eyebrows slightly frowned, more puzzled.

"Why not simple?"

Yang Yansi stretched out his hand, squeezed Cao Lin's cheek, and ordered Cao Lin to help him back to his room.

After returning to the room, I found a soft cushion to lie on comfortably, and then opened my mouth to explain Cao Lin's doubts.

"In the past, I was a minister in the same palace and had a relationship with him. It was because everyone had no selfish intentions and was dedicated to the public. Now it is different. He and I continue to communicate with a clear purpose."

Cao Lin is not stupid, after Yang Yansi confuses her, she also guessed some, and said with a little surprise: "You mean, he has already taken refuge with a certain prince?"

Yang Yansi said indifferently: "Eight or nine is not far from ten."

"Then don't associate with him anymore..."

When Yang Yansi and Cao Lin were discussing Lu Mengzheng in the East Court of the Yang Mansion, Lu Mengzheng was also discussing Yang Yansi outside the Yang Mansion.

Outside the Yang Mansion, in a remote corner, a sedan chair was parked. The sedan chair was not luxurious, it looked very simple.

After Lu Mengzheng left the Yang Mansion, he turned a corner and arrived in front of the sedan chair.

Facing the sedan chair curtain, Lu Meng was saluting respectfully.

"Third Master!"

The car curtain was lifted, revealing a hand. The owner of the hand didn't speak, but waved to Lu Mengzheng.

Lu Meng stepped forward and got into the sedan chair.

In the sedan chair, the person whom Lu Mengzheng respectfully called the third master asked in a low voice, "Is the deal settled?"

Lu Mengzheng sighed and shook his head.

"As soon as Xiaguan explained his purpose, he invited him out."

The third master was playing with a jade pendant in his hand, and after pondering for a long time, he opened his mouth and said, "The unicorn of the Yang family is really smart and courageous in doing things. In order not to participate in the situation of seizing the heir, he refused you decisively. There is no room left."

Lu Mengzheng nodded, and said: "From this point of view, the Yang family really does not want to participate in the situation of seizing the heirloom..."

"Hey hey hey..."

The third master's laughter was full of sarcasm, "The situation of seizing the heir apparent is like a puddle of muddy water, no one can stay out of it. Yang Qi wanted to protect himself wisely, so he got out of the situation. Little did he know, he was already in the situation.

As long as you are on the court, that is the flag in the game of seizing the heir.No one can escape. "

Lu Mengzheng nodded slowly, agreeing: "What the third master said is very true."

The third master said again: "Tell me, will Yang Qi guess your identity?"

Lu Mengzheng was stunned. He understood the meaning of the third master's words, hesitated for a while, and replied: "With Yang Yansi's wisdom, he should be able to deduce that I have already taken refuge in the prince. But he certainly cannot deduce whether I have taken refuge in the prince. who."

The third master nodded and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then this king will add fuel to the flames. To force the Yang family into the game, I'll see how this unicorn of the Yang family will deal with the chaos."

Lu Mengzheng smiled and said, "The third master has a clever plan?"

The third master played with the jade pendant and smiled mysteriously.

"A brilliant plan..."

After saying this sentence, the third master slowly closed his eyes.

Lu Mengzheng knew that it was time for him to leave.

He didn't bother the third master, he got off the sedan chair quietly, and turned to another place where his sedan chair was parked.

The sedan chairs of the third master and Lu Mengzheng were carried by the porters and left the Yang Mansion unsteadily.

They didn't know that there were several tails behind them.

in the evening.

Taking advantage of Cao Lin's absence, Luo Ye quietly appeared in front of Yang Yansi's bed.

"leader……"

Yang Yansi, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and asked, "How is the investigation?"

Luo Ye bowed and said: "According to your instructions, I found two sedan chairs outside the mansion. I sent two groups of people to follow them all the way. After Lu Mengzheng left Yang's mansion, he went to another Zuo Zhengyan At home, we chatted for about an hour, and only returned home in the evening.

On the other sedan chair, there are many guards secretly.The people below did not dare to follow closely.However, the people below still found out about his whereabouts.

After the sedan chair left Yang's mansion, it entered Zhang's mansion. "

"Zhang Mansion?" Yang Yansi asked, "Which Zhang Mansion?"

Luo Ye said in a deep voice: "The mansion of Zhang Delin, Marquis Yu of the Jinwu Guard."

"Zhang Delin?"

Yang Yansi frowned, and said with a half-smile: "Marquis Yu of the Jinwu Guard..."

Yang Yansi straightened his arms, and said lazily: "A small and inconspicuous Yuhou is indeed difficult to attract people's attention. Unfortunately, you can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me. Zhang Delin is your third prince's man... ...So, Lu Mengzheng is also yours."

"Among Zhao Guangyi's sons, in terms of talent, the eldest, the second, and the eighth are all amazing. The third is mediocre. But in the end, the third won the throne. That's how Lu Meng discovered the difference between the third and the third." of……"

After muttering a few words casually, Yang Yansi ordered Luoye to say, "Send someone to closely monitor the movements of Lu Mengzheng and Zhang Delin. If you have any news, please report to me at any time."

"Subordinates obey."

Luo Ye exited the bedroom, Yang Yansi was still lying on the bed and meditating.

It stands to reason that he had offended the people of the Three Kings' House in the Southern Kingdom before, which could be regarded as an enmity with the Three Kings' House.

Today, the third prince sent Lu Meng to encourage him to write a letter, so he didn't have any good intentions.

From this, it can be seen that this third prince is definitely not an open-minded person.

"This third prince wants to drag me into the water. If it doesn't work once, I'm afraid there will be another time."

"Think I'm a soft persimmon easy to bully?"

"It's best not to mess with me. Others treat you as the royal family, unattainable and unoffensive, but I won't. If you mess with me, I don't mind slaughtering a few dragon sons and grandsons to see."

"..."

Cao Lin entered the room and heard her husband muttering to herself, so she couldn't help asking.

"Lang Jun, what are you talking about?"

Yang Yansi was startled, then smiled brightly, "It's nothing..."

……

Ever since Lu Mengzheng visited Yang Yansi, Tianbo Yang's Mansion has always been calm.

The court has exploded in recent days.

Although Yang Yansi applied for sick leave and recuperated at home, the news about the court still fell into his ears verbatim.

There is no need for him to deliberately inquire about the affairs of the court.

Every day, after the imperial court, Shi Yuansun would appear in Yang Yansi's East Court on time.

Then, he chirped and told Yang Yansi everything that happened in the court hall in detail.

In the court hall, in the past few days, there have been letters from officials again and again, asking Zhao Guangyi to register the crown prince.

Zhao Guangyi expressed great anger at this.

Seventeen officials were dismissed from their posts in a row.

However, Zhao Guangyi's punishment for these people was far less severe than Song Han's.

The emperor responded to Li Chu's question with the attitude of dismissing him from office.

Not only did the officials not feel any fear, but there was an intensifying trend.

In the morning court today, someone actually proposed to make Zhao Defang the Crown Prince.

All of a sudden, the incident of Lichu was pushed to the forefront.

Who is Zhao Defang?
The orphan of the first emperor.

For Zhao Guangyi and his sons, the issue of the Crown Prince, involving Zhao Defang, has become a taboo topic.

The speaker who wrote to ask Zhao Defang to be the crown prince has never lived to this day.

After going to court, he was found to have committed suicide at home by taking poison.

After death, there was still a smile on his face.

Opportunity drug!
There is also a label on the machine-leading medicine, which is exclusive to the emperor.

That is to say, the speaker who wrote to ask Zhao Defang to be crown prince was poisoned to death by the emperor's order.

However, all the officials in the court, even if they knew about it, kept silent.

As long as the emperor is not in the court, the officials are ordered to be killed.

They pretended not to see what they were doing in secret.

Of course, the death of the spokesperson also showed Zhao Guangyi's attitude.

Saying that Zhao Defang is the crown prince will not end well.

The pawn Zhao Defang threw out as a test was destroyed, Yang Yansi didn't know what Zhao Defang was thinking.

However, Yang Yansi expressed that it was very pleasing to the eye for the drama between the old Zhao family brothers and their sons, each with their younger brothers fighting back and forth.

"It is said that after the Eighth Sage King learned about this, he immediately wrote a memorial to apologize and handed it to the palace."

Shi Yuansun vividly described the rumors he heard.

Yang Yansi smiled lightly, "It's really interesting."

Shi Yuansun went to Yang's mansion tirelessly and expressed his intention to be close to him, he could see it.

Yang Yansi guessed that Shi Yuansun came to Yang's mansion because of Shi Shouxin's instruction.

Shi Shouxin, an old fox, doesn't know what Yang Yansi did in Yongzhou.

However, from the few words and phrases obtained from Li Zifeng's mouth, it can also be inferred that Yang Yansi has done a big thing in Yongzhou.

Although, it is not yet possible to guess what this big event is.

But Shi Shouxin, who had been secretly observing the Yang family and the Cao family, was able to infer a little bit through the business transfer of the Cao and Yang families.

Shi Shouxin once showed his favor to Yang Yansi.

It's a pity that Yang Yansi didn't take him to play.

So he can only express his goodwill to Yang Yansi through his grandson.

Shi Yuansun picked up a piece of cake on the table, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Seventh brother, the birthday cake from your house is still delicious. The guys in the shop have never been able to make this taste."

"If you like to eat, eat more."

Yang Yansi said with a smile.

Shi Yuansun nodded, swallowed another piece of cake, and seemed to remember something, while chewing, he said: "By the way, when I came here just now, I heard from my father that His Majesty is going to hold a family banquet."

Yang Yansi was startled, "A family banquet?"

Shi Yuansun said: "My father said that there should be a lot of noise about the recent appointment of the crown prince. His Majesty was afraid that people's hearts would be unstable, so he prepared a family banquet. He wanted to appease the hearts of us honorable families."

Yang Yansi frowned, "Did you only invite the Xungui family?"

"Yeah!" Shi Yuansun nodded, "And His Majesty also made it clear that each family should bring the son of each family's younger generation, let him have a look, and it will be convenient for us to mention it in the future."

Yang Yansi nodded thoughtfully.

Zhao Guangyi was afraid that his sons would unite with generals and raise troops to rebel.

So reassure in advance.
