Tibet

In the afternoon, Li Ye returned home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his mother Pei Sanniang making medicine in the yard.

When she saw her son coming back, she asked casually without raising her head, "What happened to your father?"

"There was a fire in the household last night. They said he was suspected of arson and was arrested!"

"Clang!"

The bowl in Pei Sanniang's hand fell to the ground, and she panicked: "What's going on? Your father doesn't even dare to kill a chicken. How dare he set a fire?"

Li Ye suddenly realized that his mother was tough on words, but she still cared about his father very much in her heart. After so many years of hard work, I'm afraid she couldn't tolerate other men in her heart!

Li Ye suppressed his laughter, shook his head and said: "My father was naturally framed. Now that my grandfather has persuaded the emperor to retry the case, I believe he will be repaid."

"Hey! Being an official these days is very risky. You can go to jail easily. It's not as comfortable as a common man!"

Pei Sanniang blushed a little. She was afraid that her son would see through her thoughts, so she turned around and went back.

However, Li Ye had no time to think about his mother's mood. He went back to the room to consider his father's case. As long as his father refused to admit it and the court could not produce conclusive evidence, the case on his father's end would be frozen.

Then the other party will definitely start from Yang Shenjin, first use a trick to bring down Yang Shenjin, and then force Yang Shenjin to confess to colluding with Li Linfu in an attempt to restore the previous dynasty.

This move is very vicious. Once it succeeds, the Li family will definitely face disaster, and he himself will not be able to escape the big net.

Li Ye vaguely remembered that when the history teacher talked about the descendants of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, he mentioned Yang Shenjin. He was framed in advance and placed a prophecy book in the study, and was then found and convicted.

Grandfather said that Yang Shenjin has been under house arrest today, and it is very likely that the other party will take action tonight.

Li Ye made a plan and he will take action tonight.

……….

In Mrs. Guo Guo's house, Mrs. Guo Guo was furious, "Looking at the good things you have done, you didn't seize such a good opportunity. What's the use of you?"

Standing in the hall was Yang Guozhong. This time it was the emperor Li Longji who hinted to Yang Yupei that he could consider letting the Yang family be in charge of the household department. The Yang family was in charge of the household department, which would inevitably lead to the county overthrowing Yang Shenjin.

In order to bring down Yang Shenjin, several important aides of the Yang family racked their brains and worked out a detailed plan to make a fuss about Yang Shenjin's status as a former royal family.

But this time I didn't expect that I would catch a rabbit when I was cutting grass. Three days ago, Li Linfu placed his son in the Ministry of Household Affairs. This was killing two birds with one stone.

But unexpectedly, the carefully formulated results were overturned. The morning interrogation report was not adopted and a retrial was required. This caught Yang Guozhong off guard and made Yang Yupei furious.

Among the Yang family sisters, the eldest sister, Mrs. Qin Guo, is in poor health and is basically recuperating from illness. The remaining two are Yang Yupei, Mrs. Guo Guo, and Yang Yujue, Mrs. Korea. In fact, the leadership of the Yang family is in the hands of these two women.

However, Concubine Yang did not care about government affairs and was obsessed with music. Emperor Li Longji did not want her to interfere in government affairs, so he handed over the power to Yang Yupei and Yang Yujue.

In particular, Mrs. Yang Yupei of Guo State was smart, capable and ambitious. In addition, she was beautiful and had an ambiguous relationship with the emperor Li Longji, so the power of the entire Yang family was basically in her hands.

Yang Yupei has been cultivating his brother Yang Guozhong, but during the match with the Tianpeng polo team, Yang Xuan used his wife and brother to pretend to be a second-level white ball player, deceiving Yang Yupei, which made Yang Yupei extremely angry and made her not trust Yang Guozhong anymore.

She began to think about Yang Hao. If the deployment had not been started earlier this time, she would definitely let Yang Hao take over the household department.

"Tell me! Why did you mess up?" Yang Yupei stared at Yang Guozhong coldly, and she wanted to explain.

"The main reason was that it was too hasty and insufficiently prepared, which led to some loopholes that could not be justified. And Li Linfu seized these loopholes, and the emperor had no choice but to give in."

"What loophole?"

"There is no way Li Linfu would let his own son set a fire. He could just find someone with strong martial arts skills to do it."

Yang Yupei said for a long time: "That's because you didn't think carefully!"

"It's just because it was too hasty!"

Yang Yupei nodded, "What are you going to do next?"

Yang Guozhong said quickly: "I have thought about it. We cannot distract our energy. The focus is still on dealing with Yang Shenjin. Once Yang Shenjin is brought down, we can let him accuse Li Linfu and we can achieve our goal."

"Go ahead! Discuss this with Shi Jingzhong, and if you mess up the matter for me, go back to Jiannan!"

"I promise I will succeed this time!"

Yang Guozhong saluted in a panic and left in a hurry.

……….

Yang Guozhong immediately found Shi Jingzhong. Shi Jingzhong was once a famous demon monk in Chang'an. He was originally a declining Turkic nobleman. His surname was Ashina, and his Chinese name was Shi Jingzhong.

Shi Jingzhong was famous for being good at using illusions. In his early years, he used illusions to defile many women from good families, and he gradually became known as the evil monk.

However, in recent years, he no longer interacts with ordinary people. He has returned to secular life. He found that Li Tang admired Taoism, so he also changed to Taoism. He claimed to have gained a glimpse of the celestial phenomena and could explain the laws of nature of all things in the world.

Shi Jingzhong often visited the palaces of princes and nobles to explain the astronomical phenomena to them. Using his illusion skills and his sharp tongue, he successfully bewitched one prince after another. His fame grew, making him extremely popular among the aristocratic circles of Chang'an. .

Yang Shenjin used to be his client, but in the past two years, he has had a heated relationship with the Yang family.

But Shi Jingzhong's transformation from a notorious evil monk to a Taoist priest required a lot of investment, publicity, packaging and various expensive props.

The financial backer behind him was Shuofang Jiedu Envoy Abusi. To be precise, Shi Jingzhong was actually Abusi's puppet.

The various plans and plans of Shi Jingzhong and Yang Guozhong were actually made by Absi.

In the room, Shi Jingzhong squinted after listening to Yang Guozhong's opinions, nodded and said: "It is good to use the excuse of covering up the treasury deficit and burning the books, but it can also be easily overturned due to insufficient evidence. Since Li Dai is to be retried, then Yang Shenjin will There can be no conviction and we are running out of time.”

Because Li Dai admitted in his confession that he was ordered by Yang Shenjin to burn down the household department, Yang Shenjin has been suspended from work and under house arrest today, and his home has been sealed. Once Li Dai's retrial overturns his previous confession, Yang Shenjin will be acquitted. , so Shi Jingzhong said that time was running out.

"What do you mean by Mr. Yi?"

"I have two suggestions. The first is to delay Li Dai's retrial. Yang Shenjin will not be released until the results of the retrial come out, so that we have time to collect Yang Shenjin's charges. This time I suggest using Chen Wei's charges. He He is also a member of the former royal family, so this crime suits him very well."

Yang Guozhong was overjoyed, "This is a good charge. Even if there is no evidence, Yang Shenjin will not be able to escape the crime. Sir, do you have a plan?"

Shi Jingzhong nodded, "We have a plan, but the key is how many days can Mr. Yang give me?"

Yang Guozhong thought for a while and said: "Li Linfu will not allow delay. He will let Ji Wen come to try the case. I estimate that it can only be delayed for a day or two at most."

Shi Jingzhong was a little embarrassed, "One or two days is a little too hasty, okay! I'll take action tonight, and I have a concubine called Mingzhu. She was originally Yang Shenjin's concubine. I will hand her over to Mrs. Guo Guo tomorrow. Then my wife took her to the palace to complain to the emperor, and everything was safe."

……….

Yang Guozhong took a carriage back to the mansion. As soon as he arrived in front of the mansion, a servant came to report, "Sir, Yuwen Tong, the young inspector of the Ordnance Supervision, is here to see you!"

Although Yang Guozhong couldn't figure out why Yuwen Tong came to see him, he knew that the Yuwen family was an important member of the Guanlong nobles and was worth making friends with.

He nodded, "Ask him to wait in the guest room, I'll be right away!"

Yang Guozhong changed his clothes and came to the guest room. At this time, Yu Wentong was pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pot.

Of course Yu Wenjing got the news that his son-in-law Li Dai had been arrested, but what scared Yu Wenjing was not just the arrest of his son-in-law, but the great significance revealed behind the case.

First, the emperor wants to take action against Li Linfu; second, the emperor wants to take action against the previous royal family.

Both of these two items involve the vital interests of the Yuwen family. As a relative of Li Linfu and a descendant of the Northern Zhou royal family, how could Yuwen Jing not be worried? How could you not be afraid?

Under the persuasion of his brother Yu Wentong, Yu Wenjing finally decided to move closer to the Yang family and escape the disaster by seeking refuge with the Yang family.

Yuwentong came here to hand over his certificate on the order of his elder brother.

When Yang Guozhong walked into the guest room, Yu Wentong hurriedly greeted him, saluted with a flattering smile on his face and said, "I'm sorry to disturb Mr. Yang's rest!"
