At dusk, Li Ye and Zhang Ping came to a small house in Yongdafang.
"It's this small house. We followed it for three days before confirming it!"
Zhang Ping's Daye Martial Arts School is indeed very good at tracking and investigating. It's no wonder that their business is good. Li Ye sincerely admires him. He smiled at Zhang Ping and said, "How about debt collection?"
"It's okay, debt collection has always been our strength!"
Zhang Ping said with a smile: "To deal with high-ranking officials, we have always used disgusting and abusive methods to make them extremely annoyed. In the end, we had no choice but to pay off the debt."
Li Ye smiled and said: "Do you know that there is a player named Falcon among the polo players? He is loyal to the Yang family polo team."
Zhang Ping nodded, "I know this person. He was competing with you to become a polo player."
"That's him. He is the son of Wu Xin, the Jiu Jiu of the Imperial Academy. His name is Wu Ying. He made a bet with me during the Spring Hunting in Wuting River last year and lost three hundred guan from me, but he refused to pay. You want the money?"
Come back and the money goes to the martial arts school."
Zhang Ping was overjoyed, three hundred guan!
Zhang Ping asked again: "Does he have any handle?"
Li Ye nodded, "When we competed against the Fan Yangjun Polo Team in the top five last year, he made three major mistakes, which caused us to lose to the Fan Yangjun Polo Team. But afterwards, at the gate of Guangzhaifang, I found him sneaking into Anlu
Shan's carriage, you tell him that if he doesn't pay back the money, you will report to Gao Lishi about his secret affair with An Lushan."
Zhang Ping hesitated and said: "He must know that it was you who instigated it, especially if you know his secret. Will he come to trouble you?"
Li Ye smiled faintly, "I can't ask for it!"
Zhang Ping smiled and said: "That's good, I'll ask him to hand over the money obediently!"
At this time, one of Zhang Ping's apprentices came and said: "The owner of the hall, Zhang Jun, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, is also in the house. We found that there is another child, about five or six years old, who is Zhang Jun's son."
Zhang Ping said to Li Ye: "What are the regulations next and how to do it?"
Li Ye shook his head, "I'll handle the rest, you go ahead!"
Zhang Ping also knew that there were some things that he could not ask more about, so he immediately left with his two apprentices.
In the Sun Jiliang assassination case, the person who framed him was Yang Wei, the minister of household affairs, but there was another person who cooperated with Yang Wei and set a trap for himself, and that was Zhang Yan, who was treating guests.
If it weren't for his treat, he wouldn't have rushed to An Ran Ju Restaurant on time at the second quarter of the Emir's Hour. Zhang Yan didn't show up in the end. He obviously knew what would happen.
Li Ye couldn't help but feel the sand in his eyes. Since Zhang Yan cooperated with the Yang family to set a trap for him, how could he not return this gift?
Later, Li Ye learned that the Zhang family had a grudge against his grandfather. Zhang Yan's grandfather was the famous prime minister Zhang Shuo. In the 14th year of Kaiyuan, Li Linfu and Yu Wenrong teamed up to deal with Zhang Shuo, resulting in Zhang Shuo being dismissed as prime minister.
Perhaps it was for this reason that the Zhang family teamed up with the Yang family to frame themselves.
Li Ye asked Zhang Ping to keep an eye on Zhang Yan's father, Zhang Jun, and sure enough, he caught Zhang Jun's hand. The dignified Minister of the Ministry of Justice actually raised a housewife and had an illegitimate child.
Li Ye waited for another half an hour. It was getting dark and the gate finally opened. He saw a carriage driving out of the mansion and heading towards the square gate. The gate slammed shut again.
The car curtain is very tight, so I don’t know who is inside?
If Zhang Ping's men hadn't seen Zhang Jun getting into the carriage in Daming Palace, no one would have known that this small house was actually the place where Zhang Jun, the Minister of Punishment, raised his foreign wife.
Li Ye silently climbed over the wall and entered the house. He quickly found out that there lived a woman in her twenties, a boy about five years old, two maids, two maids, and a
There are seven old housekeepers in total.
Li Ye pried open the back window of the study and jumped in. The crime of raising a housewife was far from enough. In the end, he might be punished with three drinks of wine.
Zhang Jun is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. His family background and strong connections can support his escape, so he must find some better charges.
The study is very clean, filled with a light fragrance. All the furnishings in the room are very elegant and valuable. On the desk are the four treasures of the study. There is a white jade unicorn and a white jade ruler. They are white and smooth. At first glance,
It is an extremely precious thing. The white jade unicorn is also carved from the same material. It should be cut from a large piece of Hetian jade seed material.
Li Ye had something. He thought about it and found a box to put these two things in and take them away.
Li Ye searched around the study room and found a large sandalwood box hidden behind a pile of books at the bottom of the bookcase with a gold lock on it.
Li Ye took out the box and twisted off the gold lock. There seemed to be documents inside. He took it under the moonlight and took a closer look. There were only a dozen letters inside. The weight and thickness of the box were wrong. Li Ye searched carefully for a moment and found that the last
There used to be a mezzanine underneath.
Opening the mezzanine cover, there is a silk scroll underneath, which is a book. The title of the book is faintly visible. After taking a closer look, Li Ye was really surprised. It turned out to be a prophecy book.
Li Ye quickly took out the silk scroll and put it on the table and unfolded it slowly. There were many comments by Zhang Jun in the book. There was also a poem written by Zhang Jun at the front, with the inscription below.
This is simply the best evidence! Zhang Jun did not dare to leave the prophecy at home, but hid it in his mistress's home.
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside, and Li Ye was startled. He hurriedly put the prophecy book into the box, turned over and hid behind the screen next to the desk.
The door was gently pushed open, and a young woman in a white dress walked in. She walked directly to the incense burner in the corner, opened the beast's head, put a few pieces of incense into the burner.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the window creaked open. The young woman said to herself: "Thankfully I came to take a look, otherwise it would have been troublesome if it rained."
She closed the window, looked around the house again, and found nothing unusual, then closed the door and left.
Li Ye stepped out from behind the screen, and then he carefully looked at the screen. It turned out to be the same white jade made of mutton fat seeds as the Zhen ruler. There were three screens in total, each made of four pieces, about one meter high.
Carved on it is the Flying Pagoda, which is lifelike, and the base is also made of rosewood.
Ever since Li Ye crushed the white jade gourd in Xuebu, he had been thinking about it and wanted to find another white jade gourd.
Although they are also sold in the Anxi Jade Shop in Dongshi, the quality is far inferior to the previous jade gourd.
So Li Ye found three precious pieces of mutton-fat jade made of Hotan seeds in his study, and of course he was very excited.
Li Ye held the screen in one hand and the box in the other, gently climbed over the courtyard wall and disappeared into the darkness.
He first went back to Changlefang and placed a few jade articles at home before heading to Pingkangfang.
Under the light, Li Linfu squinted his eyes and read the prophecy carefully. His joy could not be concealed. He patted the table and praised: "Good! What a good thing!"
Generally, the evidence is just a book or an artifact, but this kind of evidence is not convincing and conclusive, and it also has many limitations. If it is not found from the home on the spot, the other party may not admit it.
What is the best evidence? The first one is letters, and the second one is books with personal inscriptions and postscripts, which cannot be denied no matter when they are taken out.
Li Ye smiled and said: "With this good thing, my grandfather will be able to dismiss Zhang Jun and send him into exile tomorrow."
Li Linfu smiled lightly and said: "You said the opposite. With this good thing, I will secretly help Zhang Jun fight for the third prime minister."
"Isn't it a military representative?"
Li Linfu shook his head, "The so-called military representative becoming the prime minister is probably tailor-made by the emperor for Yu Wenjing. Once Yu Wenjing fails, the idea that the military representative will become the prime minister may disappear."
"What about the elements?" Li Ye asked anxiously.
"Element should be self-aware. His brother Yuantai is about the same. His qualifications are not enough, but I can recommend him to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of War. He will not lose!"
Li Ye was helpless, he could not decide the position of prime minister, so he asked again: "Is there any hope for Zhang Jun?"
Li Linfu nodded, "Without Yu Wenjing, Zhang Jun, as the Minister of Punishment, would have stood out. In addition, his father Zhang said that I brought him down, and he cooperated with the Yang family in the Sun Jiliang case this time. He would become the last person after Yu Wenjing's failure."
A good substitute, it doesn't matter if he usually opposes me, but at the most critical moment, with this prophecy, he must stand by my side."
Li Ye still admired his grandfather's long-term thinking and using the letter and the prophecy in his hand as a handle to secretly control Zhang Jun, which was smarter than directly overthrowing him.
Li Linfu knew that his grandson was feeling uncomfortable, so he comforted him and said: "I know that the Zhang family participated in framing you, which makes you unhappy. Don't worry! I will tease Zhang Jun about being a stay-at-home wife tomorrow, and Zhang Yan will come to apologize to you soon.
, the Zhang family is very rich, if you want to extort thousands of dollars from them, just ask."
Li Ye hesitated and said: "When I took the books and letters, I took away three pieces of jade. Consider it the Zhang family's compensation!"
"Three pieces of jade?"
Li Linfu's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but said: "The three jade articles you mentioned are a white jade unicorn, a white jade ruler, and a white jade screen?"
