Chapter 367
"hiss……"

In the vertical arch hall, the officials gasped.

Could it be that this Yang family Qilang has lost his mind and gone crazy?

Yang Ye and other people who were going to intercede for Yang Yansi had their mouths open and their faces were stunned.

Some courtiers who secretly befriended the third prince, the fourth prince, the eighth prince, and the eight sage kings stared at Yang Yansi secretly, not knowing what his words meant.

Above the Golden Palace, the officials had different expressions, and it was difficult to calm down in their hearts.

At this moment, Zhao Guangyi showed his demeanor as an emperor. After repeatedly confirming that he heard Yang Yansi's words correctly, he sat down slowly.

There was no expression on Zhao Guangyi's face at all, and no emotion could be seen.

"Yang Yansi, do you know what you are talking about? You'd better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise I will definitely know that you have committed the crime of fooling the emperor."

With a calm smile on Yang Yansi's face, he said neither humble nor overbearing: "The minister is about to explain this matter to His Majesty..."

Yang Yansi put the wat board in his hand to his chest, and said in a loud voice: "Recently, there have been many lobbyists wandering around the minister's house. It may be related to the function of the minister. They lobbied the minister and wrote a letter to ask your majesty to appoint a prince. The minister also After interrogating these people, I found that they are from the Three Prince's Mansion, the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the Eighth Prince's Mansion and the Eighth Prince's Mansion."

"presumptuous!"

"Nonsense!"

"While wantonly biting dragon sons, the crime should be punished."

"..."

Some of the courtiers heard Yang Yansi's words and felt that something was wrong on the spot, and one by one angrily accused Yang Yansi.

Yang Yansi looked calm, pointed at Zhao Guangyi to the courtiers who were roaring, and said with a smile: "These people must be the disciples of the princes."

"Um~"

As soon as the words came out, the courtiers immediately kept silent and stared at Yang Yansi indignantly.

Although the Great Song Dynasty did not have express regulations that did not allow party formation, Zhao Guangyi, a small-minded emperor, did not like courtiers to form alliances in private.

Zhao Guangyi himself got to the throne by doing some shady things in private, so he hated this kind of thing the most.

As a result, the courtiers heard Yang Yansi's accusation, and they were too frightened to speak any more.

Zhao Guangyi narrowed his eyes, with a mysterious smile on his face, "You are so bold, you dare to say anything..."

Yang Yansi looked simple and honest, and said: "I am loyal to Your Majesty, and in front of Your Majesty, I naturally know everything and say everything."

Zhao Guangyi said in a deep voice: "You can tell me this kind of thing in private, why do you have to say it in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty today?"

Yang Yansi raised two fingers and said: "There are two reasons. First, I am just a lowly official, not qualified to meet with His Majesty in private. Second, I originally planned to find an opportunity for my father to bring me into the palace. , Unexpectedly, some bad rumors have spread to the ears of the minister recently. The minister thinks that this matter cannot be delayed any longer, so that His Majesty will not be deceived by others, so he can only raise this matter in the court."

"Oh?"

Zhao Guangyi stared at Yang Yansi with great interest and asked: "What are the rumors, I will listen to them if you tell them. I want to know what kind of rumors they are. I am so frightened that I will not hesitate to offend the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and I will speak up."

Yang Yansi clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty Qizuo, there are many rumors, and even some outrageous remarks. Please forgive me for my innocence, so that I dare to say it."

"Hey hey..." Zhao Guangyi said with a light smile, "If I don't forgive your sins, why don't you say so?"

"Um~"

The corners of Yang Yansi's mouth twitched, as if he had eaten a lump of glutinous rice. He didn't expect that Zhao Guangyi didn't play cards according to common sense.

Seeing Yang Yansi deflated, Zhao Guangyi found some pleasure, so he didn't make things difficult for him.

"Forget it, I forgive you for your innocence, just speak out."

Yang Yansi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Your Majesty..."

"Recently, there have been a lot of rumors, and basically everything is related to the Yang family. I suspect that someone is behind our Yang family's back. And this person is very likely to be Pan Renmei..."

"Little bunny, what are you talking about?"

When Pan Renmei heard Yang Yansi's words, she immediately exploded, and immediately wanted to argue with Yang Yansi.

"enough!"

Zhao Guangyi yelled loudly, and gave Yang Yansi a hard look, "Speak rumors, don't bite at will, unless you have evidence."

Yang Yansi pretended to be stupid and said in a daze: "Oh oh oh...the minister said rumors, there are many rumors. There are rumors that the minister's family has taken refuge in the eight sage kings, and is going to secretly support the eight sage kings and seize the throne..."

"Um……"

Zhao Guangyi's face was a little cold.

"There are also rumors that the minister's family has taken refuge in the Eighth Prince and plans to support the Eighth Prince as the crown prince, and is also planning to coerce the Emperor to make the princes."

"Huh~"

Zhao Guangyi laughed sarcastically.

Yang Yansi has been observing Zhao Guangyi's face, seeing that when he mentioned the eight sage kings, Zhao Guangyi was obviously displeased; when he mentioned the eight princes, Zhao Guangyi showed a hint of sarcasm, apparently not believing the rumors.

Yang Yansi is about to throw a big move.

He paused, and said loudly: "There are also rumors that the Yang family and the Pan family where I belong are forming an alliance and are planning to support the third prince as the crown prince. He is also planning to unite with Concubine Pan Gui, cooperate internally and externally, and perform the Xuanwu Gate incident..."

"Nonsense! Nonsense!"

Pan Renmei jumped straight to her feet, pointing at Yang Yansi and roaring tremblingly.

Zhao Guangyi's face was so cold that he scolded in a deep voice: "Pan Aiqing, what a shame to be yelling in the hall."

Pan Renmei fell to the ground in tears and wailed, "The old minister is loyal to His Majesty and has absolutely no rebellious heart. This little bastard slanders the minister and provokes the relationship between the minister and His Majesty."

Yang Yansi stared at Pan Renmei with a smile and said, "Pan Guozhang, don't talk nonsense. What I said are all rumors. Are you so flustered because you have a guilty conscience?"

"You bullshit!"

Pan Renmei roared.

"bump!"

Zhao Guangyi shot the dragon case and scolded: "Enough is enough, shut up all of you."

Zhao Guangyi stood up and said in a deep voice: "I'm not a fool, how could I blame my ministers for the rumors in the market."

Yang Yansi lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head pleasingly, but he was thinking in his heart.

Yes, yes, you are not a foolish emperor.But you are a narrow-minded emperor, I will give you some eye drops today, and plant a seed of doubt in your heart.

Next, it is slowly watering...

"Yang Yansi!"

When he heard Zhao Guangyi's angry shout, Yang Yansi hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "The minister is here."

Zhao Guangyi said coldly: "These people left messages in the market, you moved them to the court and said, making everyone panic, what is your intention?"

Yang Yansi stared, "Your Majesty just said that you are innocent..."

"Um?!!"

All right!Being an emperor is unreasonable.

Yang Yansi rolled his eyes, and he had an idea.

"That... the minister is also entrusted by others, and it is a matter of loyalty. Recently, the third prince, the fourth prince, the eighth prince and the eight sage kings have also given a little bit gift to the minister.

Isn't this a short hand for taking people, but a soft mouth for eating people!

The minister thought that if he directly reported to His Majesty, firstly, he could fulfill their entrustment, and secondly, he could also report to His Majesty, so that His Majesty would not be deceived by traitors. "

Zhao Guangyi stared, "You say my emperor's son and nephew are all traitors?"

Yang Yansi pretended to be panic-stricken and said, "I dare not."

Zhao Guangyi snorted coldly and said: "Even if you still have some loyalty to me, I will not make it difficult for you today. However, all the bribes you received will be confiscated and put into the internal treasury."

Yang Yansi threw the wat board on duty and shouted, "Your Majesty, I am wronged!"

Zhao Guangyi stared, "I just confiscated the bribe you took, and didn't punish you for disturbing the court. Are you ashamed to complain?"

Yang Yansitian said with a straight face: "Of course I'm going to be wronged. Before going to court, I donated all my family property for the victims of the disaster in the northwest. Now, the whole family of the minister's house is hungry every day. back.

The minister's mother, pity the family not to be starved to death, she does not hesitate to go secretly to the vegetable market every day, when there is no one, pick up some rotten vegetables that others don't want and come back to feed our brothers. "

Yang Yansi has a lot of drama, with snot and tears.

The hundreds of officials in the court were stunned.

Yang Ye's eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

Cao Bin winked at Yang Ye's side and said, "Mother-in-law, I never imagined that life in your house would be so difficult, and you would actually rely on your wife to pick up rotten vegetables for a living? Or, after a while, you will bring the people in your house with you, Let's go to the old man's house to eat and drink. The old man has some property, and it is not a problem to support a hundred people."

Cao Bin was embarrassed, and Yang Ye was ashamed.

However, when Yang Yansi said something, Cao Bin couldn't laugh anymore.

I only heard Yang Yansi crying: "Your Majesty, the family of the minister's wife is also considered to be rich. The minister wanted to lower his face and rub it. Who knew that the minister's father-in-law had a miserable life. Before the minister's father-in-law He also donated millions of dans of food and emptied his family. When the minister went, he was drooling looking at his father-in-law and the cornbread.

The minister was so ashamed that he could only take his wife home and continue to suffer from hunger. "

"I never thought that Cao Aiqing and Yang Aiqing, the two majestic dukes of the Song Dynasty, would have such a miserable life?"

Zhao Guangyi glanced at Yang Ye and Cao Bin playfully.

The Cao and Yang families had donated a lot of food before. The Cao family was fine, but the Yang family was almost empty.

However, even so, Zhao Guangyi would not believe that the Yang family really could not afford to eat.

For a moment, both Cao Bin and Yang Ye were so ashamed that they wanted to pounce on him, strangle Yang Yansi to death, and then find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

Yang Yansi was shameless and continued: "To be honest, the things sent by the third prince, the fourth prince, the eighth prince and the eight sage kings really solved the urgent need of the minister's family! The things sent by the four princes, although It’s not much, and when converted into silver, it’s only around seven or eight or ninety taels. But the money really saved the Chen family from starving.

I figured it out, these taels of silver, save a little money, are enough for my family to eat chaff and swallow vegetables until next month.

If you are going back now, the Chen family will starve to death. "

Zhao Guangyi smiled coldly, "Since that's the case, then, you and Yang Ye won't receive this month's salary..."

Yang Yansi heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Well, the minister just said it wrong. There are many people in the minister's house, and these silver taels are enough for the old family of the minister to swallow chaff and vegetables for three days. Hmm! Three days!"

Zhao Guangyi stared, "Oh, I have a golden mouth."

Yang Yansi wept bitterly, and said: "Your Majesty's golden words, I admit it. It seems that after three days, I can only take the whole family to the gate of Pan's house to ask for some leftovers."

Yang Yansi counted with his fingers: "I heard that the third prince gave the Pan family 36 mu of good farmland in order to buy Pan Guozhang. I heard that it used to be Huangzhuang. The land is [-] mu, and the four-entry house. In order to please Pan Guozhang, the Eighth Prince gave [-] walking beads, each of which was as big as a longan. In order to attract Pan Guozhang, the Eighth Prince gave a pair of thirty-jin A heavy golden Buddha. Pan Guozhang has received so many presents, and he is so rich that it must be enough for Pan Guozhang to show a little bit between his fingers..."

"Little beast~"

Pan Renmei almost went mad with anger, she rushed forward and wanted to fight Yang Yansi desperately.

Cao Bin was beside Pan Renmei, and grabbed Pan Renmei quickly with his eyesight and hands.

Pan Renmei roared, "Little bastard, you are talking nonsense and slandering the old man... The old man is fighting with you..."

Yang Yansi seemed to be frightened. While backing away timidly, he poked his neck and said, "Pan Guozhang, do you dare to say these things, does your Pan family have them? If so, how did you get them?"

Yang Yansi had investigated in advance, and what he said were some shameful things of the Pan family.

Basically, it's all stolen by chance.

So Yang Yansi asked him to tell the story, but he couldn't tell.

He could only growl at Yang Yansi, cursing the little bastard.

Yang Yansi timidly said: "The items sent by the four highnesses are of similar value. I heard that the third prince secretly sent you another iron scroll without words in order to win. It is said that he will ascend the throne in the future. You can borrow it King Feng, right?"

"nonsense!"

Pan Renmei went completely crazy.

The wordless iron scroll is the biggest secret of the Pan family.

This thing was not given by the third prince, but a promise made by Zhao Kuangyin when he thought of Pan Renmei secretly helping him raise the orphans of the previous dynasty when he was in power.

This wordless iron scroll is equivalent to an imperial edict.

Pan Renmei can hold this iron scroll and ask Zhao's descendants for a blank imperial decree.

Except for a certain usurper, Zhao's descendants must agree to everything.

Even if Pan Renmei wants to be crowned king.

In fact, this is also a life-saving talisman left by Zhao Kuangyin for his son.His original intention was to let his young son ascend the throne, so that he could use the power of the Pan family to stabilize the throne.

I once thought that Zhao Guangyi won the throne.

Zhao Guangyi ascended to the throne without even an imperial edict.

Pan Renmei didn't dare to take out what Zhao Kuangyin had bestowed and asked for something. What if Zhao Guangyi refused to accept his account and killed him directly?
After all, it is possible for someone to kill his own elder brother, let alone an outsider.

Now, Yang Yansi took the opportunity of discrediting the third prince to directly expose the last little secret of Pan's residence.

"Wordless iron scroll?" Zhao Guangyi narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "There is such a thing, I want to see it."

"Decree, Yang Yansi thoroughly investigates this matter, and all property related to bribery found will be confiscated. If you find an unwritten iron scroll, send it to me immediately."

"Yang Yansi, if there is no wordless iron scroll, I will be dismissed from office for the crime of deceiving the king, and the whole family will be assigned to Salmonella Island."

"Decree, the three emperors, the fourth emperor, the eighth emperor, and Emperor Defang's nephew, these four people, from today onwards, contemplate their mistakes behind closed doors. Without my order, they are not allowed to contact anyone, and they are not allowed to go out for a step.

Those who violate the order will be dismissed as common people. "

After Zhao Guangyi gave the order, he said coldly to Pan Renmei: "Pan Aiqing, after the next court, you will stay by my side. After Yang Yansi finds out everything, I will naturally give you justice."

 Thanks to 'Wood, Yijianhan Guangyao' for the reward of 20 yuan in the ocean!Thank you for the reward of 'Books in the Sea, True Love is Priceless, Shang Qingzi, Whispering Chongqing Forest'!
