Yang Guang looked around at the crowd. Everywhere he glanced, the courtiers kept silent. But despite this, everyone's eyes were still focused on Yang Guang, waiting for Yang Guang's decision.
Yang Guang looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Does anyone else have different opinions?"
"Your Majesty, I also second my proposal."
At this moment, Yu Wenshu also came out and spoke.
Yu Wenshu's words have different weight.
After all, Yuwenshu has a very high influence in the court, especially now that all the officials are targeting Wang Can, it is even more different that Yuwenshu is willing to take the lead.
Yang Guang narrowed his eyes.
Yu Wenshu, an old man, actually targeted Wang Can at this time.
Just damn.
Yang Guang shook his sleeves and said calmly: "Yuwenshu, do you also think that Wang Can should be dismissed first?"
"yes!"
Yu Wenshu replied solemnly.
Yang Guang said calmly: "Yu Wenshu, you also insist that Wang Can was responsible for the murder of Kong Xingshen and others, and it was Wang Can's incompetence as an official. However, Yuwen Chengdu came back from Liaoxi County, and he witnessed with his own eyes what happened in Liaoxi
Everyone in the county knows what Wang Can did in Liucheng, so let him talk about it and see what the situation is."
"Yuwen Chengdu, please tell me."
Yang Guang gave an order.
"I obey the decree!"
After Yuwen Chengdu received the order, he immediately stood up.
After Yuwen Chengdu stood up, Yuwen Shu's pupils shrank. Because Yuwen Chengdu went north to Liucheng, but now, Yuwen Chengdu has come back. Even when Yuwen Chengdu returned to Luoyang, he never met him or said anything specific.
Due to this situation, Yu Wenshu did not know the news about Liaoxi County or even Liucheng County.
Yuwen Shu said: "Yuwen Chengdu, what do you have to say?"
Yuwen Chengdu said seriously: "Reporting to General, this time I was ordered to go north to Liucheng and personally witnessed everything in Liucheng and Liaoxi County. Under Wang Can's governance, everything in Liucheng and even Liaoxi County is good, the people are healthy, and the place is peaceful."
"It can be said that Wang Can has made great contributions."
"As for the deaths of Kong Xingchen, Zheng Duo and others, I happened to hear about them when I arrived."
"At that time, Wang Can, as the parent's official, specially arranged for people to investigate and collect evidence. Because the scene was a scorched earth, no traces could be found. Instead, he visited the local people and got some information."
Yuwen Chengdu said: "On the night when Kong Xingshen, Zheng Duo and others died tragically, the people said that it was ghosts who broke into the wall and that fire from the sky fell from the warehouse, which was why Kong Xingshen and others died. This is what I heard
Yes, this is also the official conclusion.”
"Of course, when I returned to Luoyang from the south, I visited the local area."
"The scene was indeed a scorched earth."
"The most important thing is that on the night when Kong Xingshen and others died, ghosts broke into the wall. No one could get close to the house of Kong Xingshen and others."
Yuwen Chengdu said seriously: "Speaking of which, as soon as the incident involving Kong Xingshen and others happened, Wang Can dealt with it as soon as possible and announced the results of the investigation as soon as possible. I really can't blame Wang Can for this matter, after all
It was a natural or man-made disaster and had nothing to do with Wang Can."
Yuwenshu said coldly: "This matter is only your judgment."
The other speakers spoke one after another.
Everyone began to criticize Yuwen Chengdu, thinking that Yuwen Chengdu was speaking one-sidedly, and even believed that Yuwen Chengdu was partial to Wang Can. In fact, it was unreasonable to openly say what Yuwen Chengdu said.
Yuwen Chengdu faced criticism from everyone and said directly: "Everything I said is true. Moreover, I personally met Wang Can and conducted an on-site inspection. This was indeed the situation at that time."
"Shut up!"
Yuwen Shu was furious when he saw that Yuwen Chengdu wanted to speak for Wang Can.
He was full of displeasure.
Yuwen Chengdu is his grandson and a member of his Yuwen family. Logically speaking, he should help him. Especially this time Yuwen Chengdu went north to deal with Wang Can according to Yuwen Shu's arrangement. But now,
Yuwen Chengdu actually helped Wang Can, something that Yuwen Shu didn't like very much.
As soon as Yuwen Shu spoke, Yuwen Chengdu was ready to refute.
However, Yuwen Chengdu did not refute, Yang Guang had already taken the lead and said: "Yu Wenshu, this is the court. Since it is the court, there are no fathers and sons, no family ties, only business, and business must be done in an official manner. Yuwen Chengdu is my official
Ordered to go north to investigate Liaoxi County, and found that Wang Can is fine in Liaoxi County. I believe in Yuwen Chengdu, and I believe in Wang Can even more."
Yu Wenshu's complexion changed slightly.
He is familiar with Yang Guang's character. Now that Yang Guang has intervened, it is impossible for him to criticize Wang Can anymore, let alone put pressure on Yuwen Chengdu, otherwise Yang Guang will not be happy.
The only way to clean up Yuwen Chengdu is after returning home.
On the other hand, the officials in the DPRK and Central Government did not give up. There were still officials who insisted that Wang Can should be dealt with. Wang Can should be dismissed first, and then officials would be sent north again to investigate the murder of the Kong family and others.
This incident made Yang Guang furious.
He had already said that he believed in Wang Can, but these officials who came from aristocratic families still refused to give up.
It's simply courting death.
Especially Li Xu, he was determined to deal with Wang Can. In Li Xu's view, if Wang Can was not captured, the family would always be a threat, so Li Xu said again: "Your Majesty, please think twice. If you don't deal with Wang Can,
Brilliant, I’m afraid the world won’t be convinced.”
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
…
One by one, the officials spoke.
The officials who spoke had a fearless look on their faces. In their opinion, they were not afraid of Yang Guang, because these people were the officials of Yushitai. It was extremely normal for officials responsible for receiving advice to make suggestions.
of.
When Yuwen Chengdu saw this, he narrowed his eyes and did not speak.
He knew Yang Guang's character well.
These people insist on touching Yang Guang's evil side and confronting Yang Guang. They are seeking death.
Yang Guang's anger could no longer be suppressed. He had always had a strong character. Seeing the courtiers admonishing each other, Yang Guang couldn't help but order: "Li Xu!"
"I'm here!"
Li Xu stood in the main hall and bowed.
Yang Guangdao: "You stay in Luoyang all day, and you don't understand the situation in Liaoxi County. You don't understand the situation in Liaoxi County, so you arbitrarily frame Wang Can. You criticize the court officials and slander them. You are not a court official, and you have failed me."
I trust you, you are not worthy of being an official."
"Someone is coming!"
Yang Guang gave the order directly.
Following Yang Guang's order, two soldiers entered in an instant.
When Li Xu saw this, he was immediately shocked and angry, and shouted: "Your Majesty, what are you doing? I am just making suggestions. You treat me so harshly, which is really against the way of a holy king!"
Yang Guang said in a deep voice: "I am not a holy king, I am the emperor of the Sui Dynasty."
"Come here, drag Li Xu down and chop him!"
Yang Guang's cruel and domineering nature was fully exposed. He gave the order directly, and the soldiers stepped forward and dragged Li Xu out.
At this moment, the officials were horrified.
Yang Guang is too domineering.
There were also officials who were ready to give it a try, but before they spoke, Yang Guang looked around at everyone, his sharp gaze as if he wanted to penetrate people's hearts, and even more as if he wanted to kill someone: "Whoever dares to talk about how to deal with Wang Can, Li Xu will do it." A lesson learned from the past. Whoever wants to die, please stand up for me and I will help you one by one."
brush!
The expressions of the officials changed greatly.
Everyone was shocked by Yang Guang's tyranny, because Yang Guang acted so arbitrarily and dealt with officials so tyrannically, which already ignored the laws of the court.
But unfortunately, no one dared to touch Yang Guang's brow.
Yang Guang is a man who can do what he says.
Although the officials tried to admonish Yang Guang, when Yang Guang was really angry, no one dared to provoke him.
Not long after, Li Xu was dragged away.
In the main hall, it became quiet for a while.
Yang Guang sat upright, put his hands on his knees, and said in a deep voice: "Now, who has any objections? Anyone who wants to deal with Wang Can, please stand up for me, I will see you."
The courtiers were silent and no one dared to confront Yang Guang.
Furthermore, these are only some officials.
Mainly officials from aristocratic families gathered here, but in fact there were many officials and important ministers in the court who did not come to the palace, so these people did not dare to speak in the face of the powerful Yang Guang.
Yang Guangmao flicked his sleeves and said: "I personally appointed Wang Can to be in charge of Liaoxi County. Without my order, no one can touch Wang Can. What's more, if the Kong family, Zheng family and other Shandong big families are seeking death, they deserve it." .This matter has come to an end. If anyone else wants to die, just tell me. Are you all clear?"
"clear!"
All officials answered in unison.
Yang Guang didn't have the patience to say any more, and waved his hand: "Step back!"
"I obey the decree!"
Everyone answered and turned around to leave.
Yuwen Chengdu also left in the same way. After he walked out of the hall, he saw Yuwen Shu with a livid face. At this moment, Yuwen Shu's face was very ugly and angry. He glared at Yuwen Chengdu and ordered: "Follow me. !”
Yuwen Chengdu followed suit in stride.
After the two of them walked out of the imperial city, they got on the carriage and went straight to Yuwen's house.
In the carriage, Yu Wenshu stared at Yuwen Chengdu, gritted his teeth and said: "Chengdu, what's going on with you? I told you a long time ago that you have to deal with Wang Can. But when you come back from a trip to Liaoxi County, not only Instead of helping me deal with Wang Can, you helped Wang Can. Tell me why?"
After a pause, Yu Wenshu said: "If you don't tell me that you are ugly, I will never give up. Are you still rebelling at such a young age?"
Yuwen Chengdu said: "Reporting to my grandfather, there are two reasons why my grandson helped Wang Can."
Yuwen Shu said: "Say!"
Yuwen Chengdu said seriously: "The first reason is that the emperor sincerely wants to protect Wang Can. Under the premise that the emperor supports Wang Can, as long as Wang Can does not betray the Sui Dynasty and does not treason. Then what Wang Can did, That’s not a problem. So it’s useless for you and other officials to criticize Wang Can.”
After a pause, Yuwen Chengdu said: "On the contrary, my grandfather's aggressive treatment of Wang Can will make the emperor feel disgusted. Such a move is not worth the gain for our Yuwen family."
Yu Wenshu frowned.
He knew that Yang Guang was protecting Wang Can, but he was unwilling to do so, so he had to deal with Wang Can.
