At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 418 Escaped

After Gao Bufan left, a figure flashed in and knelt down in front of the imperial case.Yang Guang asked indifferently, "How did Angata die?"

The man kneeling on the ground replied: "The Star Observatory was completely burned down, and all traces have been covered up, so there is no way to verify it, but from Angata's charred body, it can be confirmed that he was indeed killed by a sword." Yes, Gao Changqing did not lie."

Yang Guang hesitated: "The corpse is really Angata himself?"

"It shouldn't be fake." The man replied.

Yang Guang said angrily, "Yes or no?"

"Yes!"

"Can you find out who did it?"

"Subordinates are incompetent!"

Yang Guang's expression was uncertain, and he asked after a long time, "What has Li Yuan been doing recently?"

"Three days ago, I secretly took in two concubines, and yesterday afternoon I sent my confidants to secretly grab the medicine."

Yang Guang was stunned for a moment: "Why grab medicine? Is Li Yuan sick?"

"Tang Guogong is grasping the medicine that strengthens the foundation and cultivates the essence."

Yang Guang understood in an instant, and said with a smile: "My cousin used to be honest when his wife Dou Shi took care of him, but when Dou Shi died last year, his true colors were revealed immediately, and he took two concubines at once. live?"

Yang Guang's tone was full of disdain and sarcasm, but he seemed to have thought of something again, and his face immediately became gloomy.

The man kneeling on the ground added: "The two concubines accepted by Mr. Tang are twin sisters, and they cost a total of three hundred gold."

Yang Guang frowned and said, "Three hundred gold? He is really willing to give it up. It seems that my cousin has a good way of making money."

The man kneeling on the ground explained: "The pair of twin sisters are fifteen years old, and their looks are also the best. Tang Guogong took a fancy to it, and was willing to pay two hundred gold to buy it, but the nun was not willing, because with the beauty and talent of this pair of sisters, it is no problem to earn thousands of gold a year."

Yang Guang couldn't help being interested: "Then why did the nanny sell it later?"

"Tang Guogong asked the doormen to get some bloody pig's and dog's heads and hang them on the railing of Hefeng Tower, and then sent a few government servants to arrest Yang Xuangan's remnants in Hefeng Tower."

Yang Guang laughed angrily, and said coldly: "It's a trick, my cousin is only good enough, pass on my will, let Li Yuan dedicate the pair of twin sisters to the palace, hum, you want In addition, Dali Temple will investigate Li Yuan's crimes of taking concubines during his wife's funeral, buying and selling them by force, oppressing the common people, and checking whether he is greedy and perverting the law, and if so, he will be punished together!"

"Yes!" The man on the ground replied respectfully.

"How did Li Min and Li Hun react recently?" Yang Guang asked again.

"Li Zhuguo and Duke Yi have met frequently in recent days. Last night, Li Zhuguo visited Duke Yan and did not leave until early in the morning."

Yang Guang's eyes flickered coldly, and he said coldly: "Their two uncles and nephews are very elegant, and they have a long talk at night."

The man on the ground bowed his head and remained silent.

Yang Guang waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, keep watching Li Hun and Uncle Li Min closely, I want to see what they really want to do."

The man on the ground stood up and retreated, just as quietly as when he came.

In the afternoon, Li Yuan rushed into the palace, sweating profusely, with two twin girls behind him. They were indeed beautiful and well-developed, with a slim figure, charming and charming.

On the second day, a news spread in the court that Tang Guogong Li Yuan secretly took concubines during his wife's funeral, and he was still young and strong. His two concubines were confiscated.

In addition, Tang Guogong also used his power for personal gain, filled his own pockets, oppressed the people, bought and sold by force, and was ordered by the emperor to return the embezzled proceeds, and to make up for the oppressed people, and was fined for two years.

There is also an even more exciting gossip. Tang Guogong is overindulgent and lacks vitality after taking a concubine. His little brother is probably dying. Now he has to drink Shiquan Dabu soup every day to nourish his body.

Tang Guogong Li Yuan's reputation was not bad at first, but after suffering these three combo attacks, his reputation suddenly plummeted. It is said that now he is terrified and hides in the house every day to drink away his worries.

As the saying goes, outsiders watch the fun, and insiders watch the doorway. When ordinary people regard this matter as an after-dinner conversation and are particularly concerned about Tang Guogong's Xiasanlu issue, the old foxes in the court smell an unusual smell, that is The emperor is going to take the surname Li for surgery!
Because of the dignitaries in the court, which private life is okay?And Li Yuan was singled out for rectification, and the whole thing was so miserable, this is an obvious weather vane.

As the saying goes, "Three or two branches of peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the spring river is the prophet of plumbing ducks", those in the officialdom are all veterans with a keen sense of smell, for example, Yu Wenshu is one of the best, so he immediately seized the opportunity to take revenge on his brother-in-law Li Hun.

Yu Wenshu was not only treacherous and cunning, but also ruthless. After he figured out what he wanted, he immediately reported on Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew for frequent contacts and plotting rebellion in the secret room all night.

It is said that the prophecy "Li Shi should be the son of heaven" has been inserted into Yang Guang's heart like a thorn, making him sleepless, so he ordered people to lock Angatuo in the Star Observation Tower, trying to let him figure out who He was the Son of Destiny, and then killed him to avoid future troubles. As a result, Angata was stabbed to death that night. Yang Guang was shocked and angry, and naturally he doubted which "Li Shi" did it.

There are too many people surnamed Li in the world, and it is unrealistic and impossible to kill them all, so Yang Guang can only focus on the dignitaries surnamed Li in the court, because these people have money and power, and it is easier for them to succeed in rebellion and seizure. bit!
Nowadays, the most distinguished Li surnames in the court, apart from Li Yuan, are Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew, so Yang Guang was the first to focus on these three people, and Li Yuan is a cowardly, melon-loving, lustful, sloppy person He couldn't touch the wall, and Yang Guang didn't believe that he was the real dragon emperor, so he just punished him and ruined his reputation.

At this time, Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew were not alert yet, and they met and chatted in secret every day. Yu Wenshu came to investigate.

Now Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew Barbie Q fell into Yu Wenshu's hands, even if there is no shit in his crotch, he will make shit for you!

Sure enough, Yu Wenshu found no evidence to prove that Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew conspired against each other at the beginning of the investigation, so he started to attack Li Min's wife.

Li Min's wife is Yuwen Eying, who is Yang Guang's niece. In order to save her husband Li Min, Yuwen Eying wrote a document to "expose" Li Hun's rebellion under Yu Wenshu's persuasive guidance. The crime of treason was "settled".Yang Guang was also very straightforward, and immediately convicted Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew to death, and all 32 direct males in the clan beheaded.

In this way, one of the two nobles in the court, the Li Clan, was removed, Yu Wenshu took revenge, and Yang Guang also pulled out a thorn in his heart.

After Li Hun and Li Min's uncle and nephew were killed, Li Yuan was naturally frightened to death, so he intensified his sensuality, pretending to be so cowardly, Yang Guang saw that Li Yuan was so useless, and he needed to appease people's hearts at this time, so he didn't continue to use him surgery.

In this way, Li Yuan narrowly escaped.

...........................

Hongfu Girl left Luoyang at the end of August, and her house in Chunhuafang was sold to Gao Bufan for 200 taels. Now it has been repaired, with red lacquer gates reinstalled, walls painted, and furniture The beds were all replaced with new ones, and bonsai flowers were transplanted in the small yard, which instantly improved the style by many levels.

Although the house of Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu has only one entry, the area is not small, even the upper yard is more than a hundred square meters, but the husband and wife are short of money and life is hard, so they are used to it casually, and they don't take care of it, so The house looked dirty and messy, but now it has been carefully repaired, and the changes are undoubtedly earth-shaking.

The maidservant fell in love with it when she saw it, and said happily, "That's great, girl, we will have our own house in the future, and we don't have to live in the attic anymore."

The eldest grandson Wugou rolled his eyes at the servant and said, "There is nothing wrong with living in the attic."

Only then did the servant realize that his uncle and aunt Xianyu were also there, stuck out his tongue in embarrassment, and added, "My servant didn't say that living in the attic is bad, but it's better to live in my own house, haha!"

Xian Yushi smiled and said, "Although this place is a bit small, it feels pretty good. What do you think, sister?"

The Gao family was also born as a lady, and she lived in a wealthy family after marrying Changsun Sheng. This kind of small house in a hundred miles away is really nothing to her, but she has been living under the fence for more than a year, and now she can own a house. I am already satisfied with such a small house, as the so-called golden nest and silver nest are not as good as my dog's nest, so I smiled and said: "It's pretty good, it's not far from Yongxingfang, and it's convenient to go to the door in the future. Changqing can find such a After buying a house, I really care about it.”

"Mother-in-law and Wugou like it as long as they like it." Gao Bufan smiled and looked at his grandson Wugou after speaking.

The eldest grandson Wugou's pretty face was slightly hot, but he said generously, "Thank you Gao Lang, Wugou likes it very much."

Gao Bufan originally planned to give up the three-entry mansion in Yujifang to Gao's mother and son, but he was worried that they would not accept it, so he changed to this smaller one, and even colluded with Gao Shilian and Changsun Wuji , Said that they bought this house with money, otherwise they might not accept it with Wugou's temper.

The eldest grandson Wuji has a good temper, he probably hasn't lied in front of his mother yet, the little chubby with a little baby fat face was always flushed, and he said embarrassingly: "Since mother and Wugou both like it, then choose this one. , um, let's go into the house and have a look."

Gao, Xianyu, Changsun Wugou and others walked into the house. Changsun Wuji grabbed Gao Bufan and secretly asked, "Changqing, how much money did this house cost? I will pay you back when I save enough money." .”

"100 taels of silver." Gao Bufan replied casually.
