Be honest?
When Yang Shouwen heard this slightly unfamiliar name, his body shook slightly, and his face showed a look of surprise.
"Ji Hushi, are you sure of that person? Is Ji Hushi?"
Yang Chou'er didn't expect that Yang Shouwen would have such a big reaction after hearing this name.
He nodded instinctively and said, "Of course I can be sure that I have known that plan for five years for only five years, so how could I remember it wrong?"
"Where does he live?"
"I don't know... His trick troupe was living in Tongbao Inn in Tonglifang. But a few days ago he said he wanted to go back to his hometown, so I didn't contact him again. Young Master should know that these people in the martial arts world are like this, wandering around and living in a place. I just cooperated with Ji Huo-seriously, he gave money and I did things, and I really don't know what's going on."
Yang Chou'er shouted loudly, squatting on the ground and holding her head.
Yang Shouwen turned his head and looked at Dou Yilang, and saw Dou Yilang without saying a word and shouted loudly: "Silly, come with me."
On the other hand, Li Guo also ordered the guards: "Come and go over and help."
Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen strong men rushed out of the street and headed straight for Tonglifang.
Tonglifang is located to the north of the south city, and is only half the size of an ordinary market. It is also a poor market in Luoyang.
Yang Shouwen squatted down, picked up Qingnu and walked out.
"Look at him, without my order, he must not be let go."
The municipal supervisor immediately replied that although they didn't know who Yang Shouwen was, they could tell that his identity was extraordinary when they saw him following Li Guo.
How could an official at the municipal level dare to violate Yang Shouwen's orders?
Mi Niang followed Yang Shouwen and Li Guo with Zheng Qian and Xue Song.
Behind them, three guards followed closely.
"Prince Yixing?"
Yang Shouwen held Yang Qingnu and looked at Li Guo while walking.
"I remember that Prince Yixing seems to be named Li Chongjun."
"Hehe. That's my third brother."
Li Guohun didn't care and explained with a smile: "I have three brothers in total. I can't use my eldest brother's waist card. My second brother has a good relationship with me. So, I have to use my third brother's waist card... Hehe, so I don't have to worry about being bullied."
How many sons did Emperor Zhongzong of Tang Li Xian have?
Yang Shouwen is not sure about it.
He knew that Li Chongrun seemed to be the crown prince; he had also heard of Li Chongjun, but he learned from the later film "The Palace of Ming" directed by director Li Shaohong. In addition to these two people, Yang Shouwen's memory was a bit vague about Li Xian's other sons. Therefore, Yang Shouwen had no doubt about Li Guo's identity.
Go out of the north gate of the south city, across from a street. Tonglifang is opposite.
At this time, all the Wuhou in Tonglifang came out. Before Yang Shouwen could reveal his identity, a guard stole the enemy and said a few words to Wuhou. Wuhou led the way in front and headed straight to the Chuanbao Inn in the shop.
The scale of an inn built in a poor town is imaginable.
In fact, it is a big car shop, divided into two floors. The first floor is six bedrooms and several guest rooms on the second floor. The area is pitifully small.
The prices in Luoyang are very high, but the costs of such large car shops are very low.
"It's gone!"
“When did you leave?”
"About six days ago."
Dou Yilang walked forward and whispered to Yang Shouwen.
Yang Shouwen had a gloomy face and said nothing.
He was silent for a moment. Then he walked to the shopkeeper of the big car shop, "I ask you, how long has the Minzhou Play Troupe been here?"
The shopkeeper quickly replied: "They lived in early February and lived here for two months."
"Are you familiar with them?"
"I'm familiar with it, Ji Hushi and they will live with me every time they come to Luoyang... In short, I've known him for at least seven years."
Yang Shouwen closed his eyes and calculated silently in his heart.
"Do they often come to Luoyang?"
"It's not too often."
The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Young Master, you know that most of these people in the martial arts world are wandering around and rarely staying in one place for a long time. But the reason why I am impressed by this honest plan is because he is very generous. I think about it... the first year of longevity! That's right, it's the first year of longevity! He probably came to Luoyang at the end of that year, and lived here for three months until after Jingzhe the next year. Well, his team did not have that many people at that time.
It was about the summer of the second year of Changsheng, and it was almost autumn. He returned to Luoyang and lived with me. He lived for two months. Then he said that his business was not good and he was going to go to Jiangzuo for a walk. Then he appeared again, several years later! The first year of Longsheng Tongtian... Well, around the Spring Festival, his show was much bigger at that time.
Not long after that, he left again.
This is his fourth time in Luoyang, and the villain will not remember it wrong."
“Write it down.”
"ah?"
Li Guo said on the side, "Write down what you just said, do you understand?"
As he spoke, he snorted and the two strong men immediately came up.
The shopkeeper was frightened and nodded quickly to agree.
Li Guoze asked curiously: "Yang Qingzhi, do you recognize this plan honestly?"
"He should be the murderer who killed Yanyue's parents."
"What?"
Yang Shouwen now told Li Guo in detail what he encountered when he was heading south from Youzhou at the beginning of the year and passing by Pingji.
"Although I'm not sure, I guess there should be no mistake.
This person has very clever methods and is also very cunning."
Li Guo nodded and asked after a moment, "How could you be sure just now that Yang Chou'er?"
Yang Shouwen smiled and whispered in Li Guo's ear: "How could I know? I was cheating him, but I didn't expect him to be fooled."
The hot air exhaled from Yang Shouwen's mouth blew on Li Guo's ears, itchy.
Two blushings suddenly appeared on his fair cheeks that were so handsome that he couldn't find his girlfriend.
"You cheated him?"
Li Guoxin was thumping, he took a step back slightly, and distanced him from Yang Shouwen for a while, and then pretended to be shocked and said, "You are very smart."
"You only know!" Yang Shouwen did not notice Li Guo's actions and smiled: "When I was in Tongmamo before, Genu said: Only children can get into my pool. I was thinking that ordinary children will definitely not do such things. The weather was a little cold at that time, and no one would let their children do such things.
I was thinking that if it weren't for a child, he would be a very small guy.
Just now, when I watched Yang Chou'er perform, I didn't think too much about it at the beginning. But when I saw that he could shrink bones, I suddenly thought that if Yang Chou'er's skills were proficient in water, he might have passed through the Water Gate.
But although Luoyang is big, there are not many people with his figure and skills. Especially when he saw me, I realized that his eyes were filled with fear. If he hadn't done anything bad, it would be like this... So I shouted, but I didn't expect that he was really fooled! But I have to thank you for your talent. Otherwise, with this kid's ability, he might have really run away. He is the local snake in Luoyang."
When Yang Shouwen explained, Li Guo said nothing and looked at him quietly.
A strange look appeared in that gaze...
Shangyang Palace. Guanfeng Hall.
Queen Zetian sat upright, putting her jade hand on the long table in front of her. Her fingers slowly tapped the table.
Du-du-du-du-
The rhythm of her knocking on the table was very slow, but she carried a strange magic power, which made His Majesty Dan feel a difficult pressure.
Li Xian, Li Dan, and Wu Sansi were all ordered to come.
Di Renjie and Fengge Minister Yao Chong were also waiting.
However, the difference between Di Renjie and others is that Di Renjie is sitting, while others are standing. Not only is Di Renjie sitting, but there is also a long case in front of him. The long case is placed on it. The notes brought by Shangguan Wan'er.
"Huaiying, can you tell me what's wrong?"
Di Renjie raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Although the handwriting on it is vague, it is certain that it was written by Yuan Wendu. The old minister had seen the articles he wrote, so he was not unfamiliar with his handwriting. The date of this note should be between the end of Daye's thirteenth year and the beginning of Daye's thirteenth year, which is more consistent with the time that Lao minister guessed."
Li Xian was confused and couldn't help asking: "Old Guo, what are you talking about?"
Di Renjie smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian nodded, and that meant: You should explain it.
Di Renjie slowly stood up, and Yao Chong, the assistant minister of Fengge, hurried forward and supported him.
"In the first year of Tongtian, when I returned to Shendu from Pengze, I wanted to choose a house in Shendu. To be honest, someone recommended me the house in Tongmamo, but although the house was abandoned for many years, it was expensive. I like the environment of the house very much, but unfortunately I was short of money, so I could only refuse it."
Everyone knows that Di Renjie is not rich.
The situation he said was normal, and even Wu Sansi couldn't help laughing.
"If I had known that the Guo Lao liked the bronze horse, I bought it and gave it to the Guo Lao."
Di Renjie smiled and bowed, saying thanking Wu Sansi.
His actions also made Wu Zetian very happy. This shows that Di Renjie's attitude towards the Wu family is quite good.
Di Renjie continued: "But although I rejected Tongmamo's house, I heard some stories about Tongmamo. Starting from Huo Xianke until Su Zhixing bought the house. I thought at that time that Huo Xianke might have died of revenge, but the two owners died strangely afterwards, and there seemed to be some mystery inside.
I originally planned to investigate it, but…”
Di Renjie said and looked at Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian waved her hand, "Huaiying has something to say, but it's okay to say it. You seem to make me feel like I'm very stingy."
Di Renjie bowed slightly and said in a deep voice: "Li Jinzhong, Sun Wanrong rebelled in Youzhou, and I was ordered to go to Hebei to supervise the battle, so I threw the matter of Tongmamo aside and almost forgot. But the next year, in the first year of the Divine Power, I returned from Youzhou, but I heard the news that Su Zhixing was killed. I didn't know Su Zhixing, nor did I know what this person was doing. But I instinctively felt that Su Zhixing's death seemed to have a great mystery.
After that, the story of the resentment of the bronze horse and ghost seeking life began to spread in Luoyang, and it was known to everyone..."
Speaking of this, Di Renjie glanced out of the corner of his eyes and glanced at Li Dan.
But he immediately retracted his eyes and said, "Okay, let's talk about Yuan Wendu's affairs.
In the past two years, I have been in poor health and often rest at home. In my spare time, I have also read some county annals of Luoyang.
I won’t say much about who this Yuanwen is, I believe everyone knows it.
However, I heard a legend about a treasure from the previous dynasty.”
After Di Renjie said this, everyone here looked different.
Wu Sansi couldn't help but say, "What treasure?"
This Yuan Wendu was from Luoyang, a member of the Northern Wei royal family, great-grandson of Tuoba Tianci, the son of Yuanze, Anchang County, and an upright person with a distinctive character. He was once a noble servant of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and later became loyal to the Sui Dynasty. He served as a post of the Neishishu, the Left Chief of the Shangshu, the Taifu Qing and other positions. His talents and abilities were considered superior at that time.
After Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne, Yuan Wendu was appointed as the censor and was deeply trusted by Emperor Yang of Sui.
In the 13th year of Daye, Emperor Yang of Sui ran away from Jiangdu.
Yuan Wendu, Duan Da, Huangfu Wuyi and Wei Jin were left behind as Dongdu. The following year, Emperor Yang of Sui passed away, and they elected King Yang Tong of Yue as the emperor. This is the Emperor Taizhu recorded in historical books. At this time, Yuan Wendu was the inner historian, Kaifu Yitong Sansi, Guanglu Dafu, Zuo Xiaowei General, Right Yiwei General, Duke of Lu, Duke of Lu, were powerful and highly valued.
However, during the reign of Emperor Taizong, the world was in chaos and various rebels emerged one after another.
At that time, the military power in Luoyang was controlled by Wang Shichong, and Yu Culture and the Qin King Yang Hao was appointed as the emperor.
In order to check and balance Wang Shichong and to fight against the rebel army and strengthen his own strength, Yuan Wendu offered advice to the emperor Yang Tong and recruited Li Mi to come. At that time, although Wagang had fallen apart, Li Mi's own strength still existed.
If he can recruit Li Mi, he can suppress Wang Shichong.
It was precisely for this matter that Yuan Wendu offended Wang Shichong. Even when Yang Tong was preparing to promote Yuan Wendu to the Censorate, Wang Shichong strongly obstructed. Yuan Wendu was increasingly domineering in view of Wang Shichong's military power and becoming increasingly domineering, so he advised to kill Wang Shichong. In addition, he and Lu Chu and other ministers in the court were preparing to ambush Wang Shichong while he entered the court.
However, Yuan Wen didn't expect that this plan would be leaked.
Duan Da, who was also a left-behind leader of the Eastern Capital, betrayed Huang Taizhu and Yuan Wendu and defected to Wang Shichong.
Wang Shichong immediately rushed into Hanjia City, not only killing Yuan Wendu, but also killing all the young and old people in Yuan Wendu.
Di Renjie paused when he said this.
He looked at the crowd in Guanfeng Hall, and then said, "However, in order to recruit Li Mi and cooperate with Li Mi to recruit soldiers, the emperor Tailor Yang Tong devoted all his treasury to the treasury and secretly raised 500,000 tins, and was about to hand it over to him when Li Mi arrived.
However, after Yuan Wendu died, the 500,000 gold slayings disappeared."
In the hall, there was a silence.
Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all looked horrified.
Five hundred thousand gold scattered... If you follow the exchange rate during the end of the Sui Dynasty, a gold scattered would be 120 scattered coins. Now, gold may not be that valuable, but a gold scattered coins is almost 80 scattered coins. How much is 500,000 scattered coins? A total of 40 million scattered coins of Kaiyuan Tongbao. This is an astronomical figure for everyone here.
Yao Chong, the assistant minister of Fengge, couldn't help swallowing and said with a forced smile: "Old Guo, are there really so many people? Why have the officials never heard of this?"
"This matter is true!"
Wu Zetian suddenly said, "I have heard of it too.
When Emperor Taizong was alive in the early years, he ordered Hou Junji to investigate the matter secretly. Later, the prince rebelled, and Hou Junji was also involved and was sentenced to death. After his death, the matter was left unresolved, and not many people knew about it."
That is to say, is it true?
Di Renjie said: "I have always felt that the frequent occurrence of murders in Tongmamo is likely to be related to this gold.
This time, Yang Qingzhi found Yuan Wendu's notes, and from this note, it also confirmed my guess... Yuan Wendu said that after Li Mi accepted the pleading of Emperor Taizhu, he told him that his troops and horses had fought bloody battles, and their strength was greatly damaged, and he hoped that the court could give more support. At that time, Emperor Taizhu was eager to order him to go to Wulao Pass to resist Yu Wendu, so he secretly ordered Yuan Wendu to send gold out of Luoyang and hand it over to Li Mi. This is also the reason why the whereabouts of gold were unknown after Yuan Wendu's death."
"Where did the gold fall later?"
Wu Sansi could no longer bear it and jumped out and asked loudly.
Di Renjie smiled and said, "Don't be anxious... Since ancient times, the powerful soldiers came out of Danyang. At that time, Du Fuwei was rampant with the Danyang troops in his hands. Li Mi had long been envious. Yuan Wen only said that he handed over the gold to Li Mi, but he was not very clear about how Li Mi used it. However, I have accidentally discovered something in the past two years of secret investigation."
"What's up?"
"Does Your Majesty know that Zuo Youxian?"
Wu Zetian was stunned when he heard this, and showed a look of surprise and shook his head gently.
"I know."
Yao Chong said, "Zuo Youxian seems to be a sanren from Jiulong Mountain. It is said that he is proficient in channel art and has great skills. However, I only know that this person has a good relationship with Fu Gongyou. Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou clashed back then, and Du Fu was powerful. In order to avoid Du Fuwei's suspicion, Fu Gongyou followed Zuo Youxian to learn Taoism, and later confused Du Fuwei."
"There is still such a thing?"
The reciprocity of the Sui and Tang Dynasties has passed since now, and many things have been slowly covered up as time goes by.
Wu Zetian showed a sudden look and turned her head to look at Di Renjie.
"Did Li Mi hand over the gold to Zuo Youxian?"
"It is not clear whether Li Mi gave the gold to Zuo Youxian's old minister, but the old minister knew that Li Mi and Zuo Youxian can be regarded as friends of life and death. It is just that Zuo Youxian has been living in Jiangnan for many years, so there are not many people who know that Zuo Youxian exists.
The old minister discovered this time in a note by Jia Runfu... In the 14th year of Daye, Li Mi and Yu Wenhua and the fierce battle at Wulao Pass were in full swing, but arranged for Jia Runfu to escort a batch of grain to Jiulong Mountain and hand it over to Zuo Youxian. Jia Runfu was also confused at the time, but he didn't think too much about it. After sending the grain to Jiulong Mountain, he returned to Luoyang, and then had a dispute with Li Mi and defected to Emperor Taizong. He recorded in his notes that the grain was very heavy."
For a moment, the hall was silent.
Chapter completed!
