Chapter 474 Finally... Yang Sijian couldn't hide it anymore!
"Let's just talk about what happened back then."
Li Yan looked around the classroom and made a gesture of invitation.
Pu Zhengen staggered, came to the banquet, sat down, and looked at Yang Guangxian.
Yang Guangxian avoided the gentleman's sight and knelt down to the side timidly.
Pu Zhengen sighed, but took the initiative to comfort him: "Chang Gong, you don't have to blame yourself. I should have had this karma long ago. What you did can be regarded as relief for me."
Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then hummed in a low voice, obviously not believing it.
Li Yan looked at Pu Zhengen's expression and felt that he was sincere: "As for the murder back then, do you regret it now?"
Pu Zhengen gently twisted the Buddhist beads with one hand and said bitterly: "Not only now, but as early as back then, when I saw Changsun's body festering in front of me, everyone wailing, and dying miserably, I knew the scene of purgatory.
After death, you will go to Abi Hell and will not be reincarnated..."
Li Yan said coldly: "But you still became the governor of Luzhou later. That was the governor of Shangzhou. You were the governor of Shangzhou in exchange for thousands of Changsun's lives!"
Pu Zhengen's body trembled: "Yes... yes... I didn't have the courage to surrender to the government, let alone commit suicide... Instead, I became the governor... How can I say I regret it?"
"In fact, after that night, I was confused and walked for a long time. I even had the idea of committing suicide, so I wrote a letter and sent it to Duke Yang. He immediately sent someone to dissuade me and made various promises..."
"Thinking about it afterwards, this is actually because I am greedy for life and afraid of death. If I really wanted to commit suicide, why would I go through all the trouble? I just wrote a letter to find a cover-up reason, hoping that others would stop me..."
"But Mr. Yang thought that I was retreating in order to advance and wanted to gain benefits, so he actually asked me to replace Shen Junliang, who was seriously ill at the time. Later, I became the governor of a state."
Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Yang Sijian was initially afraid that you would threaten you with this matter, but with his character, he would not leave such a big deal in your hands, so he didn't want to silence you?"
Pu Zhengen nodded and said: "I didn't have any doubts at first, but when I thought about it later, I was vaguely aware that he was going to do me harm. But something happened to the little lady of the Yang family, and Mr. Yang couldn't care about me anymore..."
He sighed: "Ever since Miss Yang's disaster, I think this is karma. I have been waiting for my karma to come to my door. Now you are finally here!"
Li Yan judged through micro-expressions and determined that the other party's reaction was not fake.
Park Jung-eun's dilemma is actually very common. Most prisoners are unable to be extremely inhumane. After committing a major crime, they want to live like nothing happened. However, when they cannot pass the hurdle in their hearts, they want to plead guilty or commit suicide to atone for their sins.
I couldn't afford the courage, so I kept struggling. When I was arrested, I felt relieved that the dust had settled.
However, Pu Zhengen called Yang Sijian Mr. Yang, which showed that he still respected Yang Sijian. Li Yan changed the topic and landed on his beads: "Are you going to become a monk?"
Park Zheng-eun clasped his hands and said, "I am already a lay monk of Daebukxian Temple."
Li Yandao: "You worshiped Buddhism when you were young because you were influenced by the Buddhist atmosphere in Silla. However, judging from your father Yang Wenhui's experience, he does not believe in Buddhism..."
Park Zhengen's expression changed slightly: "Have you met my father?"
Li Yan nodded: "According to the clues provided by Jin Famin, the former leader of Silla Kingdom, the inner guard went to Japan and brought back the entire Park family. Your father wanted to escape, but he died of old age."
"We discovered from Yang Wenhui's relics that he was a member of the former Sui royal family. He was later convicted by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and sent to the inner guard. He came to Liaodong to investigate information and never returned. He later pinned his hope of recognizing his ancestor and returning to the clan.
On your body."
"As a result, you committed such a major case. Not only were you unable to restore the Yang surname of the former Sui Dynasty, but you also changed your name to Shen Junliang? I don't know what your father's feelings are under Jiuquan. The Park family is also in panic all day long..."
Pu Zhengen's eyes were red, and tears finally came out: "I have failed my father's trust, and I have received the retribution I deserve. I have harmed the entire Changsun family, and now the entire family will be punished..."
Li Yan waited for him to finish crying, and then said calmly: "We have transported your father's body back to the Central Plains. Presumably he does not want to be buried in the Japanese country or the old soil of Silla. As for the Park family, they are not the same as what you have done."
It doesn’t matter, generally you won’t be implicated.”
Park Zheng-eun was shocked and immediately fell to the ground: "Thank you for your generosity!"
Li Yandao: "But you must understand that the prerequisite for not being implicated is that you have not participated in the treason case. Once a heinous crime is involved, even if the Park family has no blood relationship with you, they will suffer unreasonable disasters!"
Pu Zhengen said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Yang...really wants to rebel?"
Yang Guangxian, who was next to him, also looked over with a frightened face.
Li Yan sneered and said: "What he did, including colluding with foreign tribes, causing trouble in the place, and even giving the queen a pregnancy-inducing drug when she was pregnant, are all the same as treason! But they were all stopped by the internal guards and did not cause a major disaster.
The impact on you will naturally be less."
Yang Guangxian breathed a long sigh of relief. Now he only wanted to be exiled and try to survive, instead of ending up with everyone being executed.
Park Zheng-eun thought of something and lowered his head.
Li Yan began to ask: "What did he say when he asked you to murder the entire Changsun family?"
Pu Zhengen composed himself and said slowly: "Mr. Yang said that the late emperor wanted to kill the entire Changsun clan, but because it was the mother clan, it was somewhat taboo, so he hinted that the Meihua inner guards would take action."
"After I came to the Tang Dynasty, I suffered from cold discrimination. I took out tokens and gave them to the internal guards. As soon as I spoke with a Silla accent, no one paid attention to me. Only Mr. Yang was the best to me. I never doubted him.
.”
"When His Highness King Wu was killed, I saw it and was resentful of what Changsun Wuji had done. I told Duke Yang, and he asked me if I would take this opportunity to do justice for heaven."
"I thought that since it was an order from a saint and I could avenge His Highness King Wu, I naturally agreed..."
Li Yan said calmly: "What method did Yang Sijian ask you to use to kill the Changsun family?"
Park Zheng-eun's cheek muscles twitched: "He gave me Wan Du Powder."
Li Yan heard Yang Zaiwei describe this kind of poison: "The first high-ranking official of the Imperial Guard, Qi Guogong, used this kind of poison in the Turkic lands. He threw it into the water source and killed all the people and animals downstream. It was extremely poisonous. Yang Sijian
How vicious is your intention to use the poison of Chang Sun Sheng, Duke of Qi, to kill the entire Chang Sun clan!"
In later generations, there was a poison that was somewhat similar, called paraquat. If you drank it, you would often be unable to survive even gastric lavage. There was only a very small chance of survival. In ancient times, it would have been fatal.
Park Zheng-eun's facial features became distorted when he thought of the poison.
Li Yan asked again: "That night when the Changsun clan screamed loudly, 'The King of Wu is coming,' was it your fault?"
Park Zheng-eun said: "I added it myself. In order to show that I was avenging His Highness King Wu, I disguised myself as His Highness King Wu and returned. I also used the white flame powder used in the previous hidden skills to create a will-o'-the-wisp..."
Li Yan asked carefully and felt that it looked like phosphorus powder from later generations.
The so-called will-o'-the-wisp is actually the spontaneous combustion phenomenon of phosphorus. The ignition point of phosphorus is very low. It will ignite when it encounters oxygen when the weather is hot. Moreover, the phosphorus fire is very light. As long as there is a little wind or air movement, it will flutter with the air. Look.
The effect is even more terrifying when it goes up.
This is not a strange thing for later generations, but for this era, it is simply a murderous weapon that pretends to be a ghost. No wonder everyone inside and outside that night believed in the revenge of Changsun's ghost.
Wandu powder is like paraquat, and white flame powder is like phosphorus powder. The combination of the two naturally creates a terrifying massacre effect.
Thinking of the mournful wailing that night, Pu Zhengen said sadly: "If I were a close relative of King Wu Li Ke, I would have the position to avenge him, but I am just a descendant of the previous dynasty living in a foreign race. This kind of massacre of the entire clan, even if I think about it afterwards,
Even if you want to deceive yourself, you can’t do it, and I still regret it even now.”
Li Yan said coldly: "If you really feel regret from the heart, instead of just consoling yourself with your mouth, you should catch the culprit Yang Sijian."
Pu Zhengen was silent for a moment and said bitterly: "But I really don't know where Mr. Yang is. The dean, Gong, is our only contact. He hasn't asked me to do anything in the past few years."
Li Yan sighed: "If this is true, then Yang Sijian will harm more people. The saddest thing is that he himself will be truly extinct!"
When Yang Guangxian heard this, he was immediately horrified and fell to the ground: "Leader Li, don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Li Yan said coldly: "I solve cases and arrest culprits. I always avoid implicating others and spare others when I have to. But Yang Sijian has gone crazy. He can do anything next!"
"You are his secretly hidden son. If he commits an act of rebellion and commits a heinous crime, how can you stay out of it?"
"The only way to protect yourself now is to catch Yang Sijian as soon as possible to prevent him from actually carrying out a major conspiracy involving the entire family!"
Yang Guangxian immediately transformed into a filial son, rushed to Park Zhengen, and grabbed his sleeve: "Sir, think carefully and catch your father!"
Pu Zhengen was stunned: "Chang Gong, no matter what Mr. Yang did, he devoted all his efforts to cultivate you. How could you treat him like this?"
Yang Guangxian had a look of shame on his face, but quickly dissipated, crying: "I don't want this either, but now that I have been arrested, what else can I do? Li Geling is right, what my father did is
He harms others and himself, so instead of letting him continue to cause trouble like this, stopping him is the best way... Sir, we can all make up for the crime!"
Park Zheng-en stared at the student, his expression completely different from the initial comfort, filled with disappointment and relief: "You are so different from your sister... maybe this is the same bloodline between you and your father!"
He broke away from Yang Guangxian's hand and said slowly to Li Yan: "I really don't know where Yang Sijian is, but the last time we met, I smelled a strange smell on Yang Sijian that I tried my best to hide. That smell, I only know where Yang Sijian is.
If you smell something on a person, it can be a clue for you to catch him."
Li Yan's eyes moved slightly and his expression changed: "Eunuch?"
Pu Zhengen nodded: "Yes, he should have purified himself and entered the palace. But if you catch his son Yang Guangxian now, you will really break his roots!"
