Zhang Yanji is the most straightforward person, and he hates the twists and turns that are used to tease people behind the scenes.
Brother Kuo'er has always been a clean and honest man, but he was framed by a traitor and turned into this. Even if Brother Kuo'er doesn't pursue this matter, he, Zhang Yanji, will investigate and get to the bottom of it.
"Li Linfu has gone crazy, and Gao Xiuyan has been dismissed from office. Who could be making trouble among them?" Li Kuo shook his head in confusion. He really didn't know which noble person in the court he had offended. Logically speaking, with his current popularity, unless he is
His mortal enemy did not force him to be on the opposite side at all. If he were his mortal enemy, the young man would be even more incomprehensible. Apart from Li Linfu and Gao Xiuyan, who else could he have such a bloody feud with?
"You can't figure it out even if you think about it here. Let's go to the city quickly to discuss countermeasures with the man named Yang." The authorities are obsessed with it, and bystanders are clear-eyed. Zhang Yanji immediately saw the crux of the problem. Such things are trivial to say the least.
It's a big deal, and as long as His Majesty the Emperor doesn't take it seriously, it's nothing more than a joke. But if His Majesty or other old people have a grudge in their hearts and believe it to be true, it will be a disaster for the Yang family and Li Kuo.
"Yes." Li Kuo responded lightly. This matter not only involves him, but also involves the reputation of the imperial concubine. Presumably, the Yang family is also anxiously running around, thinking about a solution together.
After the two of them got out of the tent, they took the mount from the soldiers and jumped onto the horse's back.
"Drive!" There was a burst of whipping, and the two cavalrymen disappeared in the khaki smoke.
...
...
When the guard outside Mingde Gate saw Li Kuo's waistband, he immediately let him go with a smile on his face. Within a short time, Li Kuo and Zhang Yanji rushed outside Yang Zhao's Prime Minister's Mansion.
Li Kuo jumped off his horse and strode towards the mansion. He and Yang Zhao were already so familiar, so naturally he did not need to be informed by the concierge.
But before his legs crossed the threshold, he was stopped by the guards of the Yang Mansion. The head butler of the Yang Mansion came out with a smile and said: "Prime Minister Yang happened to be out of the mansion today to meet friends. Most of the people in the mansion are family members."
, this is a real inconvenience. If General Li is not in an emergency, please come back another day."
He said this so decisively that Zhang Yanji was very angry. He was just a small manager, but he was so arrogant? How did Yang Zhao become so domineering just a few days after he became the left prime minister?
Just as he was about to step forward to teach the steward a few words, Li Kuo grabbed his arm.
"Since Yang Xiangguo is not in the house, I won't disturb you. Let's go!"
Since people don't want to see me, no matter how hard they try, it's futile.
After saying that, Li Kuo turned around and left resolutely.
"Hey, brother Kuo'er, wait for me!" Seeing that Li Kuo had already mounted his horse and walked more than ten steps, Mr. Zhang Xiaolang turned around and glanced at the steward, and also chased after him.
Yang Zhao's behavior today was very strange and abnormal. This matter involved the foundation of the Yang family, but Yang Zhao didn't seem to care. He entered the city from the military camp and rushed to the door of his house, but he stopped him at the door with prevarications.
outside.
What made Yang Zhao's attitude towards him change so drastically? Is it just because of that rumor? After careful consideration, Li Kuo found that since Li Linfu fell ill, Yang Zhao's attitude towards him had begun to become cold. Although there was no
He showed hostility, but the look in his eyes clearly contained a hint of wariness and jealousy.
Li Kuo felt a chill in his heart. Could it be that he had regarded himself as an imaginary enemy? No, that's not right. He was just a general who suppressed the enemy, but he was the prime minister of the imperial court. There was no comparison at all. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding?
Thinking like this, he unknowingly arrived in front of the gate of Qinrenfang. He got off his horse and walked towards the mansion. There was a young man in the mansion holding him in the breeze.
"Brother Kuo'er, let me tell you that Yang is not a good guy! Without our desperate attack that night, how could he have reached the high position of the Prime Minister? He was just sitting there enjoying the success, and he turned his back on him. A human calf?”
Zhang Yanji also caught up, scolding Yang Zhao. This guy was really ungrateful, worse than Li Linfu. Although Li Linfu was treacherous and vicious, at least he acted with a sense of loyalty and was very supportive of his confidants.
Brother Kuo'er didn't say how much he contributed to the Yang family, but at least he helped Yang Zhao a lot, right? Is this how Yang Zhao treats his benefactor?
Li Kuo was very upset and had no intention of answering Zhang Yanji's words. He just took a few square steps towards the inner house.
"Young Master, Young Master!" Shen Liniang came out from the verandah and shouted to Li Kuo.
"What's wrong?" Li Kuo frowned and walked towards Shen Liniang.
"Sir, a distinguished guest came to the mansion today and has been waiting for you." Shen Liniang bowed to Li Kuo and said Shiranian.
Distinguished guest? He rarely takes the initiative to make friends with dignitaries in the capital. Who would take the initiative to come to him at this juncture?
"Sir, come with me quickly."
"Yes." Li Kuo nodded and followed Liniang's lead towards the side hall.
"Sir, this is it." Shen Liniang opened the wooden door lightly and let the young man into the hall.
Li Kuo only took a few steps and saw clearly the man sitting in the side hall.
Her skin is like cream, and her beauty is like that of an actress. Who else could this person be if she were not the Lady of Guo State?
"Madam! How come it's you!" Li Kuo smiled bitterly and shook his head. He really didn't understand why Mrs. Guo Guo paid a sudden visit. The Yang family was really strange. One of them shut him out, but the other took the initiative to come to the door.
"What, can't the slave family come?" Yang Huahua winked at Li Kuo and teased in a coquettish voice.
"No, it's just my wife's sudden visit. I was not prepared!" Li Kuo took a few steps forward, lifted up his robe, and sat down.
"I heard from Liniang that brother Kuo'er has been in the military camp these days?" Yang Huahua looked at the young man with strange eyes, and stabbed straight at the young man's chest, forcing Li Kuo to move back subconsciously. .
"Well, that's right. I came back to the city today to do some important things. I just went to Yang Xiangguo's mansion, but I learned that Mr. Yang has already left the mansion."
"Are you still looking for him?" Yang Huahua sneered and said, "The threshold for nobles is very tight, so Brother Kuo'er is not afraid of being rejected? In the past few days, the rumors in the market are all about you, Brother Kuo'er. Feng Yingshi, if you go to him at this juncture, do you think he will meet you with his timid character?"
"Has Madam also heard about this?" Li Kuo's heart sank, and his voice was full of bitterness.
"Is there anyone in Chang'an City who doesn't know about this matter now?" Yang Huahua glanced at Li Kuo resentfully and sighed: "I don't know which villain is causing trouble. This is deliberately driving a wedge between brother Kuo'er and me, Yang." Home."
"That's why I thought of discussing countermeasures with Mr. Xiangguo to prevent Xiao Xiao from taking advantage of the situation."
Li Kuo nodded, quite agreeing with Mrs. Guo Guo's point of view.
"You want to discuss countermeasures with him? I've already told you that it's too late for him to hide from you. You want to discuss countermeasures with him? Ha..." For some reason, Yang Huahua's breath became rapid and her face turned red.
The mood also became a little exciting.
"Madam, you are the one pulling the strings, are you afraid that Mr. Yang won't appreciate it?" Zhang Yanji took over and added.
Unexpectedly, this completely ignited Yang Huahua's anger: "Shall I go to pull the strings? Will that dead ghost listen to me? In his eyes, I am just a worthless loser who can be thrown away. To tell you the truth, I
I came to Brother Kuo'er today just to tell him to be wary of anyone named Yang. By the time the fangs bite into his arm, it will be too late!"
"Madam, what do you mean?" Li Kuo's face darkened and he asked suspiciously. Listening to Yang Huahua's words, Yang Zhao seemed to be very hostile to him. But weren't they allies in destroying Li Linfu together? How could they become so in an instant?
An enemy?
"That guy is not a human being. What do you expect from him? In his eyes, everyone is a pawn. Fourth sister is, I am, you are, everyone in the world is!" Yang Huahua gasped for breath, Fengyun's chest tightened sharply
of ups and downs.
"Yes, you teamed up with him to bring down Li Linfu, but what does it matter? You know too much, you know too much, do you understand? You know that he wants to get involved in the phase, you know that he used Shen'er to seduce Lao
Thief, gain his trust. You know that he will do anything for the sake of good luck, and will even give his relatives to others to play with! He wants to kill you to avoid future troubles. He wants to kill you now to end this.
gossip!"
Tears welled up in Yang Huahua's eyes, and she buried her head in her arms, sobbing faintly.
boom!
The young man's head was buzzing, and he was experiencing pain as if a boulder was falling.
It turns out that this is the case. It turns out that Yang Zhao is afraid that he will tell these shameful things. Suddenly, Li Kuo feels sympathy for Yang Huahua. Although this woman is the wife of the country, she is not regarded by Yang Zhao as a wife.
The chess pieces were buried beside the ministers of the court? She was in the arms of countless high officials and courtiers, and her face was forced to lie on the flower bed of the princes and princes. How bitter and helpless must she be?
The same is true for the imperial concubine. Her temperament is too kind and she inevitably becomes Yang Zhao's shield.
There are always some people in the world who are willing to sacrifice the trust and affection of friends and even loved ones for their own interests.
However, he never expected that Yang Zhao would be so frantic that he would kill himself in order to seal this secret!
If he showed a submissive attitude, he wouldn't be so eager to take action, right? Unfortunately, he has a stubborn temper and often disagrees with him in political opinions.
Of course this message was not spread by Yang Zhao. He would not be so stupid as to sacrifice the most important chess piece, the imperial concubine, just to bring him down. But this became the trigger for Yang Zhao to break with himself.
He smelled a dangerous breath, which happened to be emanating from himself.
This is the temple, this is the court, this is the human heart!
What a world of cannibalism, what a saying of ‘loyalty to the country’!
