"Come here, execution!" Not bothering to look at Li Yan's embarrassing look, Li Xiang ordered to the swordsmen below.
"Lord, spare your life, spare your life, Lord..." As soon as he heard that the swordsman was about to be executed, Li Yan completely exploded, and the wailing sound was really real.
It's a pity that Li Xiang didn't have a good impression of Li Yan. This time Li Yan dared to attack the army rations. How could Li Xiang let him go?
There was more than one traitorous figure under Li Xiang, Li Yan, there were also Yu Wenhuaji, Jia Sidao and others.
But Li Yan and these people are not at the same level at all. Li Yan couldn't bear the loneliness just a few days after he was born, but these people have always been content with themselves, at least on the surface. However, Yiyu Wenhua
Moreover, the power of Jia Sidao and these people are not qualified to cause trouble for the time being.
Jia Sidao, in particular, has been promoted from county magistrate to county magistrate due to his performance in local governance in recent years, second only to the county governor in a county. Jia Sidao's promotion was entirely due to
His own political achievements have nothing to do with Jia Xu.
"My Lord is a thousand years old..." The deafening voice sounded again, and Li Xiang secretly nodded with satisfaction. At least, Li Yan's head was worth it this time.
The only pity is that the person shouting is "thousand years old" instead of "long live".
…
Chang'an.
In the dark night, it was as if endless thick ink was heavily smeared on the sky, not even the glimmer of stars.
"See you, Young Master!" Yang Shihou's thick voice sounded in Yang Yong's house.
At this time, Master Yang was wearing black armor. The smell of blood still remained on the armor, and the marks of dried blood were still on it.
Don't get me wrong, it's not that Li Xiang's troops have reached Chang'an, nor that Yang Shihou was injured in any way, but that Yang Shihou just happened to encounter something interesting.
"Shi Hou, what happened?" Yang Yong asked with some confusion.
On this late night, Yang Yong had already prepared to go to bed. During this period, Yang Yong quietly took in a new concubine and got married. At this time, the novelty had not worn off yet, and they were entangled with each other every day.
When we get tired of each other.
At this time, when he suddenly heard that Yang Shihou was coming, Yang Yong naturally felt uncomfortable.
However, Yang Shihou's status in the Sui army was not low, and even if Yang Yong did not take the initiative to get Yang Shihou's support, there was no need to hate Yang Shihou for such a trivial matter, so that Yang Yong could stand on his side.
My younger brother Yang Guang is going there.
At this stage, in order to compete for the position of Yang Jian's successor, although Yang Yong and Yang Guang have not yet made a clear decision, they have begun to quietly compete in secret.
However, when he saw the faint blood stains on Yang Shihou's body, Yang Yong also knew that something must have happened. Therefore, Yang Yong immediately wiped away the unhappiness in his heart and asked Yang Shihou about the situation.
When Yang Jian left Chang'an for the Tongguan front line, since he handed over Chang'an to Yang Yong for temporary agency management, Yang Yong naturally still had two brushes. At least, Yang Yong now is not confused about what he should do.
.
"Master Qi, today..." Yang Shihou patiently told Yang Yong what happened today. After all, in the absence of Yang Jian, Yang Yong is temporarily in charge of the Chang'an government, and Yang Yong still needs to make decisions on these matters.
After all, Chang'an City is Yang Jian's base camp, and Yang Jian's power here is unimaginable. Previously, due to the incident of the Clothes and Belt Edict, Yang Jian's supervision of Chang'an City became increasingly strict.
A few days ago, Master Yang accidentally discovered that several young eunuchs in the palace were entering and exiting the palace more frequently. Therefore, out of caution, he had some extra thoughts and ordered people to monitor them secretly.
Since Yang Shihou has sent people to monitor him, there are some things that he cannot help but investigate, and some things that have been hidden in the dark will eventually be exposed to the sun.
For more than a month, Yang Shihou unexpectedly discovered that four eunuchs, Wang Tiqian, Li Yongzhen, Shi Yuanya, and Tu Wenfu, took turns leaving the palace to have secret meetings with others.
In this month, these four people in total went out of the palace to conspire with others seven times, which is naturally abnormal.
Moreover, after Yang Shihou's month-long investigation, he discovered that more than a dozen aristocratic families, large and small, in Chang'an City, including Ding, Ma, Fu, Zhang, Huang and other aristocratic families with veterans of the Han Dynasty in the court, all joined.
Of course, these are not the most serious. After all, these people are originally separated from Yang Jian in appearance and spirit, and have never really surrendered to Yang Jian. Now, Jin King Li Xiang's army is pressing down on the country. It is true that these people can't bear the loneliness and make some small moves. normal.
However, what really troubled Yang Shihou was that among the candidates for the secret meeting with the four eunuchs Wang Tiqian, Li Yongzhen, Shi Yuanya, and Tu Wenfu, Yang Shihou actually discovered Dong Ping, Dong Min, Dong Huang, and Yang Lian. .
Dong Ping, Dong Min, and Dong Huang are all the clansmen left behind after Dong Zhuo's death. It stands to reason that Dong Zhuo's people are just like tea, so these people are not a big deal.
However, these people are related to the fierce general Wu Wenming. Wu Wenming is the second most powerful general in the Sui army, and his status in the Sui army is self-evident. Especially now when the war with Li Xiang is going on, Wu Wenming's role It's even more important.
What is even more troublesome is that if there is a problem with these Dong family members, does Wu Wenhua know about it? If Wu Wenhua knew about it, it would definitely be a huge blow to the Sui army.
In addition to Dong Ping, Dong Min, Dong Huang and other members of the Dong family, what made Yang Shihou heartbroken the most was that Yang Lian, who came from the Yang family of the Fourth Generation and the Third Duke, actually participated in this secret meeting. They were actually killed by his own family. betrayed.
Yang Lian, a famous remonstrator in the late Ming Dynasty, a member of the Donglin Party, and one of the "Six Gentlemen of Donglin". He devoted his life to fighting for the "Red Pill Case" and the "Move to the Palace Case" to maintain the palace status, and to oppose the eunuch party to curb Wei Zhongxian.
After Yang Lian was brought out by Wei Zhongxian, he was implanted into the Hongnong Yang family of the Fourth Generation and Three Dukes, and became Yang Jian's clan. However, Yang Jian was a collateral line of the Hongnong Yang family, but Yang Lian was He was implanted into the direct lineage of the Hongnong Yang family, and was also implanted into the nephew of Yang Biao, the head of the Yang family.
After discovering these things, Yang Shihou immediately explained the situation to Yang Yong and even Yang Jian, who quickly sent a letter to Tongguan.
Under Yang Jian's instructions, Yang Shihou did not act rashly. Instead, he continued to hide and monitor, not only to find out the real purpose and situation of the other party, but also to take a long-term view and catch big fish.
But just today, something unexpected happened, but it also made Yang Shihou make some different discoveries.
