Chapter 146 I took advantage of her not paying attention
On the third day of April, Yang Ming received a letter from his elder brother Yang Zhao, saying that a big event had happened in Daxing.
Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, who was in charge of Yizhou, was recalled to Beijing and placed under house arrest in Neishi Province.
The reason was that he used witchcraft to curse his father Yang Jian. He was reported and a bunch of evidence was dug up.
After Yang Ming received the letter, he was not surprised at all. This was the ending of Yang Laosi in history, but Yang Ming did not know whether he was slandered by Yang Guang.
However, although Yang Laosi was demoted to civilian status, he lived for a long time. Historically, he was always under house arrest next to his father Yang Guang. Until the Jiangdu Incident and Yuwen Sangou's regicide, he even considered whether to
Make Yang Xiu the puppet emperor.
Later, Yuwen Sangou felt that Yang Laosi was difficult to control, so he killed him.
Right now, among the five brothers, the eldest Yang Yong, the second eldest Yang Guang, and the fourth eldest Yang Xiu are all in the palace, and they are reunited in another way.
In fact, my father treated his brothers fairly well. Except for the fact that Yang Yong died in his hands, he didn't treat others well.
Yang Yong has no choice but to die, because he is the former crown prince and a direct threat to his father's position, so he must die.
Yang Laowu rebelled, but failed and was captured back to Daxing. Yang Guang did not kill him. At that time, all the officials suggested that Han Wang Liang be killed, but Yang Guang said: After all, we are brothers, and we can't bear to be sentimental, so we want to spare him and spare his death.
The only thing that was useful was the accent. Soon Pang Ben came back and told the concierge that the person who delivered the message spoke with an authentic Guanzhong accent.
After Yang Yinjiang noticed it, she quickly stopped and said:
Chen Shuyi was stunned, stroking her forehead and said: "I didn't expect this at the time."
"I felt that there must be something wrong with that letter, so I took a sneak peek while Gao Yue wasn't paying attention," Chen Shuyi said: "The letter was not signed, I don't know who wrote it, and the content was very simple, with only a few words: Gao Yue
The virtue is in my hand."
Chen Shuyi said with an innocent face: "The letter is under Gao Yue's pillow. It's not like you don't know that she never leaves home. I don't have a chance. I can't just break in and dig through someone else's pillow, right?"
"Gao Yue does have a problem."
Sooner or later, other people would know about such a major event, so Yang Ming called Yuan Wendu and the others over and spread out the letter for them to read.
Looking at it this way, the person who captured Gao Lande is probably in Daxing.
Yang Yinjiang sighed: "There are people who were sentenced to death, people who became monks, and people who became prostitutes. I'm not very clear. If you want to know these files, I'm afraid you have to find someone to help."
However, Yuan Yan died early, and his children and grandchildren were not able to support him.
Yang Ming frowned and winked at the two maids.
Yang Ming was still unhappy: "You can tell me and I'll get her away. Then you'll have a chance, right?"
The school inspectors are all vulgar hooligans. They do the dirty work, and they must be able to summarize and summarize in detail.
Because she had gone to bed and her hair was fluffy and messy, Yang Yinjiang tied her long hair back. This action revealed a hint of beauty on her chest, and Yang Ming quickly avoided looking at her.
Yang Ming was stunned and said: "Who is Gao Lande?"
Maybe they would talk about this topic in private, but they would never talk in front of Yang Ming.
So Yang Ming called Chen Shuyi over and asked her to tell Yang Yinjiang again.
Chen Shuyi was surprised and said: "How did I know? Those are the only words on the letter."
"No," Yang Yinjiang shook her head in surprise: "Where did you hear that?"
Yang Yinjiang only wore a single piece of clothing on her upper body, and her lower body was still naked under the quilt, so when she saw Yang Ming getting into bed, she quickly covered herself with the quilt:
"What's wrong? What's the emergency?"
"So you are a stick," Yang Ming couldn't help but hit her in the head.
However, Yang Ming still sent Xu Jing to find Pang Ben, asking him to ask the concierge about the messenger, and then conduct a secret inspection in the city, remembering not to make any announcement.
"Why don't you go to bed in the middle of the night and come out to play ghost?" Yang Ming got up suddenly, startling Nuan Dong Liang Xia.
At the moment, everyone in the General Manager's Office is busy recruiting people and spending money on Yang Ming's behalf.
Du Ruhui had social activities almost every day, and was busy dealing with some relatively clean aristocratic families, recruiting their children, and assigning them to household titles, so that he could cooperate with the school inspector to inspect the fields.
"After the Qi Dynasty was destroyed, the later lord Gao Wei and the thirty kings below Gao Kuang, the king of Rencheng, were taken captive to Chang'an (during the Northern Zhou Dynasty, so it was still Chang'an). There was no one named Gao Lande among them, but this person's name happened to be the same as Gao Shande , Gao Maide is similar, they are probably brothers, Gao Yue should know the inside story, is there another clan that slipped through the net back then? "
Yang Ming suddenly realized: "It is possible that after Gao Wei's death, what happened to his concubines?"
Just like King Yang Jun of Qin, only after his death did so many people flatter him and speak ill of him. When he was alive, no one dared to beep even if he had only one breath.
After hearing this, Yang Yinjiang frowned: "Most likely he is from the old Qi royal family, and he is the same generation as Gao Yue."
After Yang Ming dismissed the maid, he came to sit down by the bed and asked Chen Shuyi to light another lamp, otherwise the light in the room would be too dark.
Chen Shuyi nodded, got on the bed cross-legged, and whispered:
"Everyone, get out,"
If you can't find it in the city, don't look for it.
Seeing that neither of them responded, Yang Ming took the letter and threw it into the stove, burning it.
Yang Ming couldn't sleep either, so he took Chen Shuyi to find Yang Yinjiang.
This is the custom of the Great Sui Dynasty. Or we can say that it was the Great Sui Dynasty that was the heyday of the aristocratic clans. People's family values were deeply rooted. When they had a mouthful of food, they thought about whether they could leave a bowl of soup for their relatives. After all, after they died, everyone would Keep company in an ancestral hall.
Oh my god, you've finally found it for me. Yang Ming patted the edge of the bed with excitement and said:
"Sit down and talk."
Yang Ming was surprised and said: "You mean, this Gao Lande is also Gao Wei's son?"
"Three days ago, Gao Yue received a letter. Since then, something has been wrong with her. She is completely confused. She seems to be unable to hear me when I talk to her. She is unconscious all day long."
Yang Ming was surprised and said: "How to say?"
Chen Shuyi said furtively: "You guys go out first, I have something to discuss with His Highness."
As for intrigues and internal fights within the family, they are actually very rare. Because the eldest son inheritance system has eliminated the root of internal strife, it is not as exaggerated as in movies and TV shows. There is still a bastard fighting for the throne. What are you fighting for? Duan Pi. Do you want to manage the account book too?
Yuan Shikai was considered the president. Just because he was a concubine, he wanted his mother to be buried together with his biological father. His family would not give him the honor to do so. They firmly disagreed. He had no choice but to be buried elsewhere.
The same is true for Zhou Zhongmo. His relatives from his hometown in Jiujiang moved to Xiangyang as if they were migrating. When they were far away, they thought they were disaster victims crossing the border.
Yang Yinjiang knew a lot of things. Although Yang Ming also believed that Gao Lande should be from the Northern Qi clan and had a blood relationship with Gao Yue, Yang Ming didn't know much about the Northern Qi Dynasty and could only ask others for advice.
Luoyang Yuan, Jingzhao Du, Hedong Pei.
Yang Yinjiang was already lying down. Knowing that Yang Ming was looking for her, she quickly ordered the maid to hold the light and open the door.
"It's not urgent," Yang Ming said, "Have you ever heard of Gao Lande?"
As for Pei Xizai, it is said that he has sent people back to his hometown in Hedong to recruit people. It is the habit of the old Pei family to use their own people to handle things. There are so many children in the family, and they always need to be cultivated, just in case one or two stand out suddenly.
What about?
Yang Xiu's accident was news to him, but it was not a big event. The real big event would be five months later.
Chen Shuyi said: "It's not from the inn. Someone sent it to the front office. Gao Yue has already gone to ask."
Da Sui doesn't have a camera. Finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if there is a famous brand, it won't work. It's easy to fake.
Talent needs to be discovered. If not, Messi can only deliver food.
Yuan Min is a good example. Although he flattered Yang Jian and his wife, he thought that Yang Hao should bear the blame of his father, but in the end, Yang Hao was fine and he was executed.
Is this bastard good enough? There's no way he can do anything.
The reaction of the two women was similar to that of Yuan Wendu and others. They were speechless except for being dumbfounded.
There are people from Guanzhong everywhere in the General Manager's Mansion, so you can't get it wrong.
The general manager of Yizhou is now vacant, but everyone knows that no one can take this position in a short period of time.
Yang Ming originally wanted to talk to them about something, but in the end, each of them became tighter than the other.
After the two left, Chen Shuyi came to the bedside and whispered mysteriously:
That night, Yang Ming was already asleep, but Chen Shuyi crept into his dormitory, almost scaring Yang Ming.
Yang Ming, on the other hand, was thinking about how to spend money for the country.
As a result, no one in the lobby dared to speak.
Pang Ben's confidants have been sent to various places one after another to recruit local ruffians and classify them as school guards.
"Who sent the letter?" Yang Ming asked.
The gatekeepers have always served the royal family, so although Yang Xiu was demoted to a commoner, none of them dared to say anything wrong with Yang Xiu.
Yang Yinjiang said: "What if it is a posthumous child?"
Well now, the person who sent the letter can't be found, and there's no signature. Who knows who captured Gao Lande.
Yang Ming was completely speechless. If the letter had been delivered today, he could have asked Pang Ben to immediately deploy manpower to search the city. Unfortunately, it was three days ago. Three days later, the person had already disappeared.
After reading Yuan Wendu, I couldn't help but sigh. In the early years of the founding of the emperor, the old Yuan family was highly regarded by the Second Saint. There were not a few members of the family who entered the center. Yuan Zhen was also favored and made the crown prince.
Among them was Yuan Yan, the former minister of the Ministry of War, who was named the general manager of Yizhou, and went to Chengdu with Yang Xiu in the Sui Dynasty.
"It shouldn't be," Yang Ming said: "There are many surrendered ministers from the old Qi Dynasty. It's impossible for them not to know."
This issue is not something they can evaluate. No matter what crime the King of Shu has committed, there is only one person who can judge it, and that is the Supreme Being.
So Yang Ming returned to the inner garden, called Yang Yinjiang and Pei Shuying, and spread out the letter for them to read.
Yang Yinjiang said: "Gao Wei, the empress of the old Qi Dynasty, had five sons, namely Gao Heng, Gao Ke, Gao Shande, Gao Baide, and Gao Qian. Do you see anything?"
Don't get involved in royal matters. After all, we are family.
However, after Yang Laowu was placed under house arrest, he died within a year. There is no explanation as to how he died.
Except for Pang Ben, who was from a small family, all the people under Yang Ming were from wealthy families.
Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and said, "What then?"
So Yang Ming couldn't help but said: "You are such a stick, why did it take three days to see the letter?"
"Who?" Yang Ming asked.
Yang Yinjiang shrugged: "Besides the Second Saint, who else can access the files of the Secretary's Department?"
Yang Ming guessed who she was talking about.
Pei Ju is in charge of the Ministry of Internal History, and many matters require consulting the archives of the Central Library of the Ministry of Secretaries. Only he can enter and exit at will.
