Wei Xuan investigated Yu Qingze's case thoroughly. Comrade Zhao Shizhu, who had reported Yu Qingze's rebellion and was named Shangzhu, was also tortured.
At first, he refused to admit it because he knew very well that once he admitted it, it would not matter if he died, but the whole family would die with him.
But Wei Xuan was so awesome that he found the concubine who had committed adultery with Zhao Shizhu.
After Yu Qingze's death, this concubine was sent away, and she successfully married a wealthy businessman and became the mistress of the family. She lived a relatively comfortable life.
Women are not as tough as men. Wei Xuan just threatened and said anything to the other party.
But Zhao Shizhu had a strong bone and resisted the torture device for eight days before finally giving in.
How did Wei Xuan make the opponent do it? Throw it into the cesspit.
If you always use torture, it is easy to kill people. If you kill the person, the case will not be closed, so you can only use soft violence. People are very sensitive to the smell of feces.
Rejection of odors is a manifestation of the body's self-protection, because there are some substances that can emit odors in rotting food, plants, corpses, and feces. These odorous substances are the best culture media and transmission sources for viruses and bacteria.
.
It is human nature to reject odors.
But you can't let him get used to the smell, because after the human body is stimulated by certain smells for a long time, the human nervous system will reduce its sensitivity to such smells and gradually accept it.
For example, non-smokers are very sensitive to the smell of smoke.
Zhao Shizhu soaked for two days, but he couldn't bear it anymore. In fact, if he persisted a little longer, he could get over it.
Of course, after passing this level, there will be another level.
At this point, the highest-level case of unjust murder since the founding of the Sui Dynasty has been solved.
According to the laws of the Sui Dynasty, false accusations would not be punished. After all, no one else in Zhao Shizhu's family was involved in this matter except him.
However, most of the officials in the court wanted to be seated because the victim in the case was too high-ranking.
The Duke is from the first rank.
Moreover, the officials who recommended the joint sitting also did so out of their own considerations. Only by imposing a heavier sentence could they warn others not to imitate Zhao Shizhu. They were also afraid of being sued.
In their view, those who complain must be treated harshly.
Yang Ming was willing to show his superiority, and he was unwilling to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but the people of the Yu family held on to her, and among them, one of Yu Qing's still living concubines was the most violent.
If you drive away the people who are making fun and making jokes outside Zhuque Gate, no, they will come again after a while.
Sometimes the emperor doesn't have the final say on everything, let alone the prince. This time, Yang Ming was forced by the ministers to do something against his will.
Zhao Shizhu was executed, his son was exiled, and his female family members served as official prostitutes. Only then did Zhao Shizhu calm down the emotions of the officials in the court.
But Yu Renxiao, the eldest son of Yu Qingze, wants to attack the Duke of Jin. There is no way. Why should you attack?
Therefore, Yang Ming restored Yu Qingze's title of Duke of the State, and the surviving concubine was named the Lady of Jin. He gave Yu Renxiao the title of Duke of Wuwei County, and his second son Yu Chengdao restored the title of Duke of Pengcheng County.
On this point, the bigwigs in the court strongly agree, and the Yu family can barely accept it.
How could a concubine be made the wife of a duke? You have to look at who she is.
This concubine is not from the Central Plains. Her surname is Ashina. She is the daughter of the Khan of the Eastern Turks, the cousin of the Qimin Khan, and the cousin of the current Shibi Khan.
At that time, Yu Qingze went to the Eastern Turks as an envoy to persuade them to surrender on behalf of the Sui Dynasty. Khan Shetu agreed and married his daughter to him.
The deputy who was following Yu Qingze at that time was Chang Sun Sheng.
It was because of this incident that Yang Jian was very dissatisfied with Yu Qingze. He asked you to go on a mission to the Turks and you would make a lot of money yourself, because Yang Jian said before Yu Qingze left that if the Turks gave you horses, you could accept five
Ten horses, but in the end, he took a thousand horses, which meant that he didn't take Yang Jian's words seriously.
Therefore, the death of Yu Qingze was ultimately due to Yang Jian.
Yang Ming sent someone to invite Ashina into the palace, and his wife Yang Yinjiang appeased him. This woman had a certain status in the East Turks, because the East Turks also valued filial piety.
On the surface, he has to respect his aunt.
Ashina cried in the East Palace for a long time and said a lot of words of gratitude, but Yang Ming could see that this old woman was not simple.
"Madam, you have lived in the capital for a long time. Do you miss your hometown?" Yang Ming asked tentatively.
Ashina nodded and said, "I miss you often, but I never have the chance to go back to my hometown to visit."
Just in time, I'll give you a chance. Yang Ming smiled and said: "The relationship between the Great Sui Dynasty and the Eastern Turks is the relationship between the superior country and the vassal country. Our two families must be friendly for generations. The wife of Du Jishi (the beginning and end) is my Great Sui Dynasty."
Princess Yicheng, I heard that her son is also ten years old, do you know?"
"Of course I know," Ashina said, "Although I can't go back, my connection with my relatives in my hometown has never been interrupted."
Oh, this is not a good thing. If the two sides really want to fight, you are still a mole? Yang Ming said with a smile:
"His son's name is Shibobi, right?"
"Yes," Ashina nodded.
The word "bi" means tribal leader in Turkic language. There are many people who wear "bi". The famous Jieli Khan in history was called Dubi. There is an Ashina Shabi in "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an".
, this name may really be called by someone, but the premise is that the person wearing the bridle must be a noble leader. It is a bit unspeakable to be an assassin.
And the Shibo Bi mentioned by Yang Ming was none other than Tuli Khan, who had a good relationship with Li Shimin in history.
"Madam, would you be willing to go back to the Turks and tell Du Jishi (Shibi) that when his son reaches adulthood, the Sui people will make peace with him, hoping that the connection between the two countries can be further developed," Yang Ming said with a smile.
When Ashina heard this, she nodded quickly. Of course she was very happy to do this. The better the relationship between the two countries, the better she would be in the Sui Dynasty.
The reason why Yang Ming did this was because he was worried that his father would have a fight with Shi Bi.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! During the expedition to Liaodong, that boy led an army of 200,000 to watch the battle. It was obvious that he was sitting on the mountain to watch the fight between tigers. If the Sui Dynasty was defeated, this bastard
Definitely take action.
This is not a good sign, and Dad must know it very well.
What Yang Ming is most worried about now is that his father suddenly ordered Shibi to attend the Sui Dynasty, but Shibi did not come.
That's it. With my father's urine, a fight will definitely begin. That guy Pei Ju is also a man who doesn't care about others. Historically, the Sui Dynasty and Shibi had a bad relationship. It was Pei Ju's bad idea.
Of course, Pei Ju was also under the instructions of the emperor to find ways to alienate the Turks. As a result, Shi Bi was angered, and the subsequent siege of Yanmen came about.
Dissension depends on time. People are finally in control. How do you divide the dissension? It's like asking the Sui Dynasty to replace the prince now. Who do you replace? Is it possible to change?
Therefore, Yang Ming does not think that Pei Ju was wrong in history, but that the emperor chose the wrong time. After all, Pei Ju was an employee, and it was not he who had the final say in the general direction.
Yang Ming ordered the young minister of Honglu Temple, Yu Wenshi, to prepare some gifts for the envoys and take Ashina as an envoy to the Turks to inform them about the marriage.
He had to start early, because if he was happy and felt that the Sui Dynasty was interesting enough to him, then Yang Guang would summon him to see him and he would come.
As long as Yang Guang's face is not lost, there will be no conflict between the two parties.
Yang Ming did this behind his father's back, and he also knew that if his father knew about it, he would probably scold him, but it didn't matter, it was better to be scolded than to go to war between the two countries.
In history, the wife of Tuli Khan was indeed the marriage princess of the Sui Dynasty.
.......
When Yu Wenshu learned that his son was on a mission to the Turks, he panicked.
Could it be that the prince received some clues that he knows that I have connections with the Turks?
No, no, no, he will definitely not sell me out, he will still use me.
"When you go to Turks this time, inform Zhao Deyan first and ask him about the current situation. Once you have an idea, go to Ya Zhang," Yu Wenshu ordered.
Shiji frowned and said, "No, I have that Ashina family next to me. Wouldn't it be inappropriate if he sees me?"
Yu Wenshu was stunned: "You still want me to teach you about this kind of thing? Don't you know how to avoid it?"
"Someone is going to Honglu Temple. Wei Yijie in the East Palace and Cui Churen will also follow. These are all spies. Isn't it convenient for me to see Zhao Deyan?" Yu Wenzhi said.
Yu Wenshu sighed: "You sent someone to contact him first and made an appointment to meet him in Mayi. You are the ambassador. You have the final say on where the envoy will rest for the night. Who will know if we meet quietly at night?"
"There are still risks. My son thinks there is no need to take any extra steps," Yu Wenshiji said with a puzzled look on his face. He was unwilling to create complications. After all, if this matter about their family was leaked, it would be traitorous to the country and everyone from top to bottom would die.
Yu Wenshu was immediately furious: "What is without risk in this world? When you go out now, you have to beware of assassinations from He Ruobi's old men. Is this considered a risk? Our family is involved with the Turks. I let you see Zhao Deyan just to avoid risks.
, you have to know first whether the other side has sold us, right?"
Zhao Deyan is now so respected that he has become a horse boy, while Yu Wenshu has never sent anyone to contact Zhao Deyan in order to avoid danger.
But this time the prince suddenly sent soldiers and envoys to the Turks, Yu Wenshu was worried. He had to make sure whether the whole process was reliable or not.
In this world, I can't trust my own brother-in-law, let alone a foreigner.
Yuwen Shiji had no choice but to agree.
Why did Yang Ming let him go? Take the blame.
After all, the national self-esteem of the Sui Dynasty was very strong. After all, the current Kehe Dun, the princess of the Sui Dynasty, was already married, so it seemed that there was no need for a further marriage.
Therefore, many people will think that we are a superior country and there is no need to please the Turks.
If everyone then complains to Yang Ming, Yang Ming can definitely say that I had this idea at the time, but it was Yuwen Shiji who finally reached an agreement with the Turks.
So this time Yu Wenshiji went to Turks, nominally to escort Ashina back to her hometown to visit relatives and exchange feelings.
When he arrives at Wei Yijie in the East Palace, Cui Churen will tell him that the prince wants to give Shibi's son a princess, so go and talk to him.
Can’t you just carry this pot?
Even though Shiji did what Yang Ming ordered, the prince will not take the blame, so why don't you take the initiative to take the blame?
It's like the emperor sent a minister to do something, and it turns out that it was wrong later. Should you blame the emperor or the minister?
Historically, those who served as scapegoats for emperors were young and old.
Therefore, it is true that accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
