This mountain is mine

Chapter 224 Evidence delivered to the door

The guard who followed Yang Hao never heard Zhao Man mention the blood moon. His instructions to Yang Hao were all given by Zhao Man a month ago. It's a matter, the guard went to investigate the news by himself.

Yang Hao walked aimlessly on the street.

This Bianjing city, Yang Che is only coming back for the second time. Except when he was still in the Yang family, he heard Yang Yuan talk about the prosperity of Bianjing, and he has an impression of Bianjing and its surrounding scenery. He is really not familiar with it at all. When he came back last time, he only went to Daxiangguo Temple from his own courtyard, and he had never been to other places.

Yang Hao followed the direction of the crowd aimlessly, and didn't know how to find out the news, so he couldn't pull people away and ask, "What major event happened in the court recently?"

But since Zhao Man told him that he would know when he entered Beijing, it must be news that he could find out.

It was only when I overheard the conversation between the two women that I realized that the road was going to Daxiangguo Temple.

Thinking of the prosperity of the Daxiangguo Temple and the disaster of the blood moon, there should be more people praying to God and worshiping Buddha at this time, and there are already people coming and going on this road, so Yang Hao immediately decided to go to Daxiangguo Temple to visit Check out the news.

Not far away, Yang Hao suddenly recognized a painting and calligraphy shop called Hanmoxuan on the street.

It turned out to be this way.

With a gloomy expression, he took another two steps forward, but he couldn't help looking at the alley behind Hanmoxuan. There was only one house with three entrances in the alley.

Yang Hao raised his foot and walked over. At this time, the vermilion door was closed tightly, and there was no sound at all.Looking at the other courtyard in front of him, his eyes suddenly felt sore, he endured it and walked up the steps, sat down at the door, leaning against the door, the pain of more than a month suddenly came to his heart.

This other courtyard was arranged for him by Yang Yuan before. It is quiet here, and it is not far from Daxiangguo Temple and the moat. He likes it very much. Bianjing stayed for a while.

Although I can't wait to rush in and have a good talk with my third brother.However, thinking about the letter I wrote to the third brother earlier, reporting my identity, I went to Qinzhou without waiting for a reply, and I don't know how to face the third brother. He and the Yu family are sinners of the Yang family. nah!
What's more, the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed for several days, and the third brother must have gone back to Bozhou.

Yang Hao leaned against the door, staring straight at the two sycamore leaves falling from the yard. He didn't know how long it took until the two yellow leaves were rolled away by the autumn wind. He took a few deep breaths and stood up slowly.

Before reaching the entrance of the alley, he suddenly saw two people walking towards each other. The person walking in front was wearing a water-green cross-collar robe, with his hands behind his back, pacing leisurely. It was carrying a three-layer brown food box.

Although the distance was far away and the sky was overcast today, he recognized that it was the third elder brother Yang Yuan and the young servant Chuanxiong who came.

Yang Hao's eyes flashed, and he quickly turned sideways, not daring to meet him, but he was a little flustered in his heart, why is the third brother still in Bianjing?Didn't you go back during the Mid-Autumn Festival?

He felt ashamed to face Yang Yuan. If Yang Yuan treated him as before, he would feel ashamed. If he changed, he would also feel uncomfortable. He just wanted to find a place to hide, but here is a dead end, there is no way to go, and Yang Yuan is on the other side. The courtyard of the house, on the other side...

Seeing that Yang Yuan and the people were getting closer, Yang Hao hurried back. He had changed a lot this month, a circle of fine fluff appeared on his mouth, and his hair was messy. The third brother probably wouldn't recognize him. Come on, remember that Hanmoxuan seems to have opened a side door in this alley.

After walking back for a few steps, he found a closed wooden door, and he hurriedly beat on it.

Hearing the footsteps behind him getting closer, he could hear Chuanxiong's voice, "...Jing Ti Ju Bian and Di An Si are holding on to the boat, and if they haven't let go today, then Lu Bo can't see it as a good thing... ..."

"Hey, did Master Fang come to Hanmoxuan today? Hey, Master Fang, why don't you go through the side door if you have the main entrance!"

As Chuanxiong said, he looked at Yang Hao and greeted Yang Hao. Yang Hao became more and more anxious, knowing that Chuanxiong mistook him for Master Fang, so he didn't speak, but wished that Chuanxiong would shut up quickly. .

Yang Hao and Chuanxiong got closer and closer, and finally the door was opened by Yang Hao, before he could see who opened the door, he rushed to push the person away, got in, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

"Hey……"

Yang Hao lowered his head and walked forward. The man who opened the door looked back at him. He found a place outside the corner door that he would never see, pretended to look down at the painting, and planned to apologize to the man just now. The man who opened the door didn't talk to him, but stood at the door and started talking to Yang Yuan outside the door.

Knowing that the third brother was familiar with this person, Yang Hao became anxious again, thinking whether to leave or not.

But at this moment, the man said, "Shulang, you guys came back from Di'an Division? You'd better give up your money to avoid disaster, why bother to be angry every day."

Shu Lang is Yang Yuan's surname, and the two address each other by their letters, which shows that they get along well.

Yang Hao paused suddenly, did the third brother encounter any trouble?

He tilted his head and listened carefully, but it was Yang Yuan who teased and said, "Chunhe, even if there is no embankment department, there are other places. In the Song Dynasty, when discussing goods, they all propose the company, discuss taxes, and exchange quotations." I have traveled all over the library, and if it is delayed until the end of the year, I will probably be qualified for the position of Taifu Temple."

Yang Hao has always known that it is not easy to do business, and it is not easy for the third brother to be away, but it is the first time he hears him talk about the hard work, and his heart feels a little sour.

Hearing this, the man called Chun He burst out laughing, and said, "Be careful, I will arrange for you to go to Taifu Temple tomorrow."

The two talked a few more words, Yang Yuan took his leave and left, and heard the door opening on the opposite side.

When Yang Hao came back to his senses, he found a man of medium height standing in front of him. This man was about 25 or [-] years old. A bit of an exploratory look.

Yang Hao bowed in embarrassment: "Master Fang was abrupt just now." That's what Chuanxiong called him before.

When Yang Hao straightened up, Lord Fang spoke, his eyes still fixed on Yang Hao: "You wanted to avoid Shu Lang just now? It doesn't look like you have a problem with him?"

Before Yang Hao could think of how to answer, he waved his hand again and said, "Forget it, I won't ask you if you don't want to say it."

Yang Hao cupped his hands at the other party again, and left in a hurry.

Out of Hanmoxuan, Yang Hao hurried to the Daxiangguo Temple. Because of the blood moon, the Daxiangguo Temple was full of incense, and the halls of the Bodhisattvas were crowded with people. After going in to burn incense, they came out quickly, and it was the turn of the next group people go in.

Yang Hao didn't even approach the door, and the line for burning incense lined up on the street. He didn't know when he was trying to squeeze in. Although today is the fifth day, the tile market in Daxiangguo Temple has not opened yet. He prayed to God and worshiped Buddha, but he couldn't find anything, so he simply went back.

On the way back, he went to Najing Tijubian and Di’ansi again by some mysterious errand, and he really found out that the merchant ship of the Yang family was detained, and the two officials confronted each other. The merchant ships of the Yang family pointed and pointed, not worried about being heard at all.

Yang Hao was standing not far away, just in time to hear the conversation between the two, and the two were deliberately tormenting Yang Yuan under the order of the superiors.Listening to the tone of one of them, it turned out that Yang Yuan was a hostage of the Bozhou Yang family in Beijing.

Yang Hao was shocked. In the past, some local princes came to the capital as hostages, but since the Song Dynasty, there has been no such case, and Bozhou has already surrendered to the Song Dynasty. Once soldiers and horses are stationed, it is not enough to guard Bozhou to such an extent, but what is the reason?
Yang Hao spent money to inquire about these two people, but these two people only knew this one thing, and didn't know the inside story.The two of them are just two pawns of Jing Ti Ju Bian and Di An Si.

With two things in mind, Yang Hao went back to the inn with a heavy heart, and the guard had already turned back.

The most recent major event, that is, those two things, the first is the disaster of the blood moon, and the second is the victory of the battle of Qinzhou. The related people went to Beijing to award rewards. In order to minimize the impact of the blood moon, the victory of the battle of Qinzhou has already It has been exaggerated to the point of being a god.

As for Yang Yuan's matter, these two things have already weighed it down to nothing, but the guard still found out some inside information from the respondent. It is true that someone made things difficult on purpose, but it was not at the level of a proton.

Speaking of it, the Yang family lost face to the Crown Prince in Bozhou, and the Crown Prince was just using an excuse to vent his anger. Yang Yuan was released after spending a while, and Yang Yuan should be like this. He sent him to the door, as long as it is harmless Nor can he bear it.

However, after the appearance of the blood moon, the prince suddenly changed his mind, and went to the officials to propose that Yang Yuan be detained as a hostage in order to prevent the blood moon from causing the world to be full of flames.

In the Great Song Dynasty, not to mention the [-] soldiers who disappeared, only the Bozhou Yang family remained with private soldiers.Although in name these soldiers and horses have been taken over to the regular army, but in fact it is only in this name, and it is still at Yang Xun's discretion.

What exactly is Zhao Chi's plan? Yang Hao's heart is simple, and at most he guesses revenge on the Yang family. However, he also knows that it is definitely not a good thing for Yang Yuan to be trapped here. Any drastic move would be bad.As for whether Zhao Chi had other intentions, he couldn't guess.

"His Royal Highness, benevolent, originally planned to solve the disaster of the blood moon, and the world is peaceful, and then send the third son Yang back. Besides, even if His Royal Highness does not mention it, the Yang family will take the initiative to send a hostage over, so that the officials can feel at ease. , it's not the same."

That's what the prince's aide who played bureaucratic with Yang Hao said.

Although Yang Hao is innocent, he doesn't really believe in these words, what he said is grandiose.

He still said modestly: "Master Lao You submitted this item to His Highness the Crown Prince. If His Highness is satisfied, I will send you other evidence."

As he spoke, he took an envelope out of his pocket, put it on the table, and strode away immediately.
