Monument Yangmen

Chapter 443

Yang Qi and Zhao Defang chatted for a long time, talking a lot of nonsense.

Zhao Defang wanted to get to know Yang Qi through this method.

But in the end, Yang Qi revealed all his thoughts.

Judging from Zhao Defang's heart, he is a very contradictory person.

When Zhao Kuangyin was in power, Zhao Defang had a harmonious and perfect family.

Although Zhao Kuangyin is the emperor, he is busy all day long, but he takes care of his family very much.

Almost every day, I will take time out to play with a few children for a while.

However, Zhao Guangyi's accession to the throne destroyed this harmonious family.

Zhao Guangyi was not only suspected of murdering Zhao Kuangyin, but even imprisoned Zhao Defang's stepmother and forced to death Zhao Defang's elder brother.

For Zhao Defang, this was undoubtedly a blood feud that had to be avenged.

However, when Zhao Defang planned to overthrow Zhao Guangyi, she hoped to minimize losses and risks.

He didn't want the foundation established by his father to be destroyed in the hands of their uncle and nephew.

Yang Qi didn't want to get involved in their family affairs.

Helping Zhao Defang casually is just to use his strength to fight.

He will not fight to the death for Zhao Defang's throne, or even lose the lives of his whole family.

Zhao Defang finally left Yang Qi's room when the sun was setting, and hurried back to Bianjing City.

Zhao Defang left.

Yang Qi sat on the kang, thinking about everything.

"Hey~"

The door was pushed open, and the figure of fallen leaves appeared in Yang Qi's sight.

Fallen Ye, who had been lurking for many days, found Yang Qi and returned to his life after settling down the rest of Huoshanwei's brothers.

Luo Ye knelt on one knee in front of the kang, lowered her head, and said nothing.

Yang Qi raised his head, stared at the beams of the house, and sighed: "You are not suitable to be a spy, or in other words, you are not suitable to be a spy leader."

When Luo Ye heard this, she lowered her head even lower.

Yang Qi lowered his head, stared at the fallen leaves, and said in a deep voice: "The Fu family and the Dang family have gathered so many people, yet you didn't notice anything?"

Luo Ye lowered her head and said in a deep voice, "This subordinate is guilty."

Yang Qi turned over and lay on his side. He didn't hold Luo Ye accountable, but asked, "Where are the heads of the Patriarchs of the Fu Family and the Patriarch of the Dang Family?"

Luo Ye was silent for a while, then lowered her voice and said: "The reason why this subordinate came late is because he was investigating this matter thoroughly. The Patriarch of the Fu Family disappeared when we attacked Fu Mansion that night. This subordinate has been investigating for a long time. , and his movements have not been found. The widow of the party family is now imprisoned in the sky prison. The sons and grandchildren of the party family are also imprisoned with him."

Yang Qi frowned slowly, looking annoyed.

There was such a big commotion, thousands of people were damaged, yet the culprit has not yet been punished.

How could Yang Qi not be angry.

Yang Qi was furious, but he didn't show it, but stared at the fallen leaves indifferently.

"Leaf, tell me, have you betrayed me?"

Luo Ye raised her head suddenly, and said solemnly: "Subordinates will never dare to betray the leader."

Yang Qi narrowed his eyes and said: "In this case, how could they have escaped our attack by such a coincidence when we attacked the Fu family and the Dang family? Also, the imperial army came too quickly, and even brought Wearing a heavy crossbow that is not allowed in Bianjing City?"

Luo Ye's icy cheeks finally melted away, and he said with a look of horror: "Is there a traitor?"

Yang Qi closed his eyes, and said calmly: "I won't use those people under your command anymore. You can figure it out yourself. Now, you send the widows and descendants of the party family on the road. After sending them on the road, You can leave now."

"Puff~"

Luo Ye knelt on the ground with both legs, with a look of astonishment, "Boss?"

Yang Qi narrowed his eyes and said: "Take the woman from the government-run teaching workshop and go to Dengzhou together. The business in the Southern Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom is getting bigger and bigger, so there is no need for someone to watch. The situation in Dengzhou is very complicated. The state belongs to the Song Dynasty, but it has been occupied by the Liao people. There are many rogues and bandits on it. It is a place where filth is hidden.

It was a messy land, but a good one.

I will not give you any support.But I ask you to take Dengzhou into your own hands within three years.

This is also a test for you, if you can pass this test, then you will still help me do things in the future.

If you can't pass the test, then go back to Chuxing's side. "

Luo Ye gritted her teeth, and whispered unwillingly: "This subordinate understands."

Yang Qi waved his hand, "Go down."

As soon as the fallen leaves left, the anger in Yang Qi's heart was finally hard to suppress and broke out completely.

His face was ferocious, like a lone wolf.

He stretched his neck and roared in a hoarse voice, "Don't force me... I'm in a hurry... Let's all die together..."

After venting fiercely once.

Yang Qi finally regained his composure. Looking at the gradually darkening night outside the window, he murmured to himself, "It's getting more and more interesting. Everyone thinks that they are not dying fast enough, so they want me to give you a ride?"

The darker the night, the brighter Yang Qi's eyes became.

Until it was pitch black outside, Yang Qi's eyes were bright like torches.

……

The next day.

Early in the morning, Yang Qi asked Kong Jing to wash himself up, and then he was carried by the servants of Yang's family, and rushed towards Bianjing city.

When the city gate opened, I rushed to Bianjing City.

At the gate of the city, there are many small merchants and hawkers.

A few of these individuals buy food and drink here regularly, and the vast majority are farmers in the villages around Bianjing City.

Occasionally, they catch big fish from the river, or catch game from the mountains, and they bring them back here to sell.

The reason why they don't go to the city is because all transactions in the city have to pay taxes.

Yang Qi and the others found a clean tea stand at the gate of the city and sat down.

"Have you heard?"

In front of the tea stall, there were two country men squatting in a corner, whispering.

"I heard that General Yang won the battle, but was framed by that Song Qi's jealousy and dismissed from office. It's a pity for such a good official."

"You're wrong. I heard that Song Qi wanted to force General Yang to join him, but General Yang was unwilling and resigned on his own initiative."

"Why can't the court keep such a good official?"

"Who is our Majesty? The person who killed his elder brother and occupied his sister-in-law, how could he be a good person? He would have wronged a loyal minister like General Yang. If this happened when Taizu was in power, this would never have happened. kind of thing."

"..."

Yang Qi was a little dazed when he heard the two men whispering.

He didn't expect that what happened in the court yesterday was known to everyone today.

Yang Qi motioned, and asked his servants to carry him over.

When the two men saw Yang Qi approaching, they subconsciously wanted to hide.

Yang Qi hurriedly cupped his fists at them and said, "You two brothers, don't go, sit down and chat."

The two men stood nervously in front of Yang Qi.

Among them was a man who was more courageous. He saluted Yang Qi and asked humbly: "Young Master, what are your orders?"

Yang Qi pointed to the bench beside him, motioning for them to sit down and chat.

Two men sat awkwardly on the bench, their buttocks only touching one side of the bench.

Yang Qi said with a smile: "You two brothers, you seem to be afraid of me? I'm not a tiger or a wolf. Is it that scary?"

Seeing that Yang Qi spoke kindly, he didn't look like a wicked person.

The man smiled wryly and cupped his fists and said, "Don't blame this young master, we brothers are also afraid of being bullied. So when we see you, a rich young master, naturally we should be more cautious."

Yang Qi suddenly realized, "This Bianjing city is under the feet of the emperor, and there are rich and powerful people everywhere. There are three or two rascals, riding eagles and fighting dogs, and bullying others with their power. It is also a common occurrence."

The man said helplessly: "Who says it's not? These government dolls are all very precious. You can't scold them or touch them. If you bump into them, you will be beaten severely, or you will die at any time. We little people I can't afford it, I can only hide."

The other man, seeing Yang Qi's kindness, also started talking.

"Young master, why are you looking for our two brothers?"

Yang Qilang laughed and said: "It's nothing serious, I usually like to listen to some gossip news. I just heard you talking about Song Qi and Song Xianggong, and I thought of an interesting thing."

"What fun?"

Yang Qishen approached the two men mysteriously, raised his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Song Qi has a niece who is as beautiful as a flower. Her father wants to marry her. A good family, so they sent her to the Song Mansion and handed her over to Song Qi for help.

Tell me, our Song Xianggong is considered an extremely human minister in the court.

With his help to talk about Xiang, then he will definitely be able to find a good husband's family for this woman.

It was supposed to be a good thing, but guess what? "

The gossip souls of the two men were burning, and they stared at Yang Qi without blinking.

"What's the matter?"

Yang Qizui whispered, "This woman has been in the mansion for three years, and she hasn't found her husband's house yet..."

"How is it possible? Since the woman was born as beautiful as a flower, how could she not find her husband's family?"

The man shouted anxiously.

Yang Qi glared at him, and condemned: "What do you know... the so-called closeness to the water is the first to get the moon, and there is a Song Xianggong standing behind her. She dares to marry? Who dares to marry?"

The two men's eyes lit up, they stared, and exclaimed: "You mean, Song Qi stole his niece?!"

"Cough cough cough..."

Yang Qi coughed a few times, pretending to be deep and said: "I didn't say anything, and you didn't hear anything. If this word gets out, it will offend Mr. Song."

The two men's eyes were shining, and they nodded in unison: "We understand, we understand..."

The two men got such top-secret news, they didn't stay by Yang Qi's side, and left quietly.

Looking at the two men, Yang Qi joined the group of other people, and when he shared the news, he showed a satisfied smile.

Song Qi, Song Qi!
Now you're not ruined.

Even the famous Uncle Ouyang Yong was defeated by this rumor, and he couldn't hold his head up for the rest of his life, let alone you, Song Qi.

Yang Qi just made a casual move on a whim.

He doesn't care if he succeeds or fails.

Song Qi's reputation is doomed.

It would be the same even without this rumor.

Fame is like a mirror.

It is easy to pollute, but it is too difficult to clean.

……

Yang Qi waited for a quarter of an hour in front of the tea stand.

I saw a group of carriages coming out from the gate of the city.

The carriage is loaded with various items.

Lao Yang rode a horse and led the way.

The soldiers of the Yang Mansion stood guard all around.

In order to take care of the three pregnant women at home, Lao Yang specially prepared three sedan chairs.

The Cao family seemed to be afraid that their pregnant daughter would cause trouble, so they dispatched more than 500 people from the mansion to escort the Yang family together.

Now that Lao Yang has resigned from office, it doesn't mean much to stay in Bianjing.

It's better to go to Daizhou and become a local emperor.

Besides, Lao Yang spent half his life as a soldier in the northwest, and he was far more familiar with the northwest than Bianjing.

Northwest can be said to be Lao Yang's hometown.

When Lao Yang left the city gate, Yang Qi asked his servants to carry him up to meet him.

Facing Lao Yang again, Yang Qi smiled and said as if he was facing an old friend he hadn't seen for many years: "If there is a chance, let's sit down and have a good chat?"

Lao Yang looked at Yang Qi with a complicated expression.

Only now did he realize that the youngest son of his family had unknowingly become the decision maker and pillar of the family.

The power of Lao Yang, the head of the family, was somehow taken away by his son.

Now, in front of Yang Qi, the only thing Lao Yang can show is his majesty as a father.

Hearing Yang Qi's words, he faced Yang Qi's bright smiling face.

Lao Yang just nodded his head slightly and moved his nose.

"Hmm~"

Yang Qi didn't care about it, and let his servants carry him to She Saihua and Cao Lin with a smile.

"Mother~"

When she reached She Sai's sedan chair, She Saihua had already opened the sedan chair curtain and was waiting.

Yang Qi let out a call.

She Saihua stepped forward in relief, held Yang Qi in her arms, and said softly: "Good boy, I'm sorry for you. Mother is in Daizhou, waiting for you to go home. Don't toss too much in Bianjing..."

Yang Qi nodded.

After bidding farewell to She Saihua, Yang Qi went to see Cao Lin again.

When Cao Lin saw that Yang Qi was still paralyzed on the soft bed, she had already cried into tears.

Yang Qiwei could only hug her and comfort her constantly.

Under Yang Qi's reassurance, Cao Lin slowly returned to calm.

Before leaving, Cao Lin spoke very domineeringly.

"Lang Jun, you can just let it go. In the worst case, our mother and I will follow you to the southern country to become the emperor of the land, and we will never be in the Song Dynasty again."

Yang Qi nodded dumbfounded.

Yang Qi couldn't understand why everyone in Song Dynasty had to regard the southern country as a country of barbarians?

Maybe it was before, but when I, Yang Qi, became the master of the country, he was no longer a country of barbarians.

It took nearly an hour for Yang Qi to bid farewell to the whole family.

Finally, under Lao Yang's urging, they reluctantly parted.

Yang Qi stood on the road, watching Lao Yang go farther and farther with his chariot, horses and sedan chair, and his heart was relieved.

Since then, the Yang family has left the cage.

No longer bound by anyone.
