Chapter 437 Adventures in the Three Sisters of the Yang Family
Li Siye came out of Jinglong Temple and decided to go back to his old house in Xinchangfang to see if the Sasanian gold coins he had hidden underground were still safe.
He rode the black fat man forward slowly, and when he passed the corner of the street, he found an exquisite incense cart following behind him. He deliberately paid attention, riding fast and slowly while turning several horizontal streets and vertical streets. This red car
The tan-colored car always fell tightly behind him.
Li Siye's hair suddenly stood up, wondering if he was so lucky? He had only been in contact with Jinglongguan for a day, and was being watched by spies from Prime Minister Li's Mansion?
This is really unlucky. If Li Linfu finds out that he is colluding with the princelings, his official career in Anxi will probably come to an end. It may also involve Fumeng Lingcha. Alas, his official position is not guaranteed, and he still cares
What do others do?
He lowered his head and thought about how to deal with it. In this situation, he became increasingly calm and looked for a way to escape.
He remembered that no one was following him before entering Jinglong Temple, and it was only after he came out of the temple that he attracted the attention of the stalker. This meant that his whereabouts had just been exposed, and the man had not had time to report to Li Linfu. If he had struck preemptively, he would have
If the guy who was following him was silenced, no one would know that he had been to Jinglong Temple.
This is a very dangerous move, but if you don't take risks in this situation, you may not have a future.
He pulled the reins of his horse and headed to remote places in the city, such as Tongshan and Tongjifang near Qixia Gate. The number of pedestrians gradually decreased. The fragrant carriage was still following behind him. He turned around and took a look at the carriage.
There are tassels hanging from the top and gold decorations engraved around it. The owner of this car must not be an ordinary person.
Li Siye turned the horse's head and turned into Tongshan Square. As he swerved among the houses in the square, the incense cart followed closely.
He secretly dismounted, drove the horse into the straw shed built next to the vegetable garden, and tied the horse's reins to the wooden post. He lay on the top of the straw shed, took out the short knife from the belt around his waist, held it in his hand, and waited.
Those who follow him fall into a trap.
The exquisite incense cart was parked not far away. The driver jumped out of the carriage and looked around. Judging from the behavior of the follower, it seemed too unprofessional and did not look like someone sent by the capable Li Linfu. Maybe there was someone there.
If you make your own decisions, you will be rewarded with credit.
The man sitting in the incense cart was the one who was following him. As long as he could be controlled, the cart driver would naturally not be able to escape. Li Siye took advantage of him to wander around, quietly moved down from the roof of the shed, took off his shoes and put on his footbags like a cat.
Moving forward slowly, he finally came to the front of the carriage, touched the shaft of the carriage and suddenly opened the curtain. His eyes gradually opened and he saw a beautiful woman wearing a gold hairpin and a wide skirt.
At this moment, the question flashing in his mind was whether such a beautiful woman could be a spy sent by Li Linfu's mansion, so he became hesitant and slow.
He suddenly thought, why can't such a beautiful woman be a secret agent of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion? How can she be confused by the enemy's appearance and become soft-hearted?
He quickly pounced in, caught the beautiful woman's throat with one hand, and pressed her against the carriage board.
The woman struggled hard, but she could not win against Li Siye. Her pretty face gradually turned pale, and she was about to die.
Unexpectedly, the coachman who ran out to look for him came back so quickly. When he saw Li Siye riding on the hostess in the carriage, he was frightened and shouted tactfully: "Bold thief! She is the saint's favorite sister Yang Taizhen."
! If you dare to do this, your whole family will die!"
Li Siye was shocked. If this was really Yang Yuhuan's sister, wouldn't it be equivalent to blocking his own road? A small mistake would ruin his life? Although Yang Taizhen has not been named a noble concubine by Xuanzong, she has been three times.
With thousands of favors gathered in one person, if he really offended the Yang family, he really wouldn't have to hang out in the Tang Dynasty in the future.
He loosened his grip, but turned around and refuted: "You said she is Yang Taizhen's sister? That's nonsense. How could a noble lady follow me? Does she lack a man?"
Panting heavily, the woman turned over and sat up, with a face full of shame and anger. She reached out and aimed at Li Siye and was about to slap him away, but Li Siye grabbed her wrist.
The woman yelled angrily, "Li Siye! If I report today's events to the saint and accuse you of molesting me, I will definitely have you executed and banished from the market!"
Even if this kind of thing happened in person, he couldn't admit it. He sneered and exited the carriage and said, "Do you think I am a three-year-old child? I have seen Yang Taizhen. How could Yang Taizhen's sister be more beautiful than Taizhen, so you must not be Yang
My sister."
When the woman heard this, she fell into a daze and hesitated. While she was still in a daze, Li Siye quickly jumped out of the carriage and ran to the shed. He turned over and rode the black fat man, swung his riding crop and slapped the horse's buttocks and left Tongshanfang.
Seeing Li Siye's strong figure, the coachman was too frightened to chase him. He watched his master sitting in the chariot in a daze for a moment, and then asked hesitantly: "Sister-in-law? Do we want to report to the official?"
Sanniangzi scolded angrily: "Trash! You can't even stop me, so shut up!"
After Li Siye escaped from Tongshanfang on horseback, he turned over and dismounted halfway. He felt that his legs were weak and trembling. He felt that this matter was too mysterious, as if he had just had a dream.
He didn't know whether Sister Yang would hold a grudge, whether she would use official weapons to seek revenge, or whether she would really mobilize a large number of troops to ask the emperor to chop off his head. At present, Yang Yuhuan has not publicly been named a concubine, and she has offended the emperor's relatives.
The crime has not yet been established.
He returned to Xinchangfang along the planned route and came to the yard of his house. The house had not been inhabited for a long time and was really aging. The eaves were covered with grass and moss.
He opened the lock and walked into the courtyard. The ground of the courtyard was also covered with weeds.
This matter was difficult to solve with money, so he decided to stay in the house for three days, wait for the three days of events to ferment, and then go out to see what was going on.
He bought some Hu cakes at the Hu cake shop in the square, returned to the house and cleared a place to sit cross-legged on the ground. He ate Hu cakes with cold water while reciting "The Art of War", and when he was tired, he lay down on the ground to sleep.
After a while, after waking up, listen carefully to the movement outside.
Three days later, he stretched out and walked out of the house, picked up a bucket of water from the well in the yard, washed his face with clean water, then walked to the door of the yard and opened the doorstop, and stuck his head out to see if there was anyone around him.
, then turned around and locked the door.
He left the yard and went to Anxiliu's backyard in Pingkangfang. He paid close attention to the notices posted outside the square gate on the street. Most of what he saw was about preparations for the Yuan Lantern Festival. The imperial court was calling for slaves, and those who accepted the call would be exempted from rent transfer.
, it also states that craftsmen are not only exempted from rent adjustment, but also paid extra daily wages.
Twenty days of hard labor every year is the obligation of every registered adult male. In the early Tang Dynasty, the continued construction of canals was strictly implemented in accordance with the rent-to-yong system.
There are still three days left before Yuanzheng, and the streets in Chang'an have already started construction. People and craftsmen are making various lanterns and revolving lanterns. The Yuanlan Lantern Festival in Tianbao's third year is being carefully planned.
He came to the door of Pingkangfangliu's backyard, but he didn't rush in. Instead, he walked around the yard. He didn't see anyone suspicious squatting nearby, so he relaxed and knocked on the door.
When the guard at the gate saw him, he asked with slight surprise: "Envoy Li Zhen, where have you been these days? Someone once came to look for you."
A chill ran down Li Siye's back, and he asked to confirm, "Are you sure someone is here to look for me, not to get me?"
