Chapter 154: Ask Uncle to Help
Zang Kang was extremely efficient in his work. Within two days, he revealed the evil deeds of King Qin to King Wei, King Yue and King Han.
King Yang Chao of Wei immediately went to see Yang Xiu and Yang Liang. The three kings chatted a lot, and Yang Chao's smile remained unabated after leaving.
Then, the three kings began to send their confidants to investigate secretly. With a clear goal, it was not difficult to find out the truth.
Therefore, six days before New Year's Eve, and the day before His Majesty was about to close his writing, Yang Liang and Yang Xiu suddenly entered the palace and sued King Qin Yang Jun, who failed His Majesty's grace. Not only did he betray his power, but he was also cruel and unkind.
King Yang Chao of Wei suddenly became ill, so he did not enter the palace together. He was cunning and followed Guo Yanzhi's advice and used Yang Liang and Yang Xiu as a knife.
Yang Liang and Yang Xiu were both angry with the King of Qin. Now that they can finally fight back, they don’t care whether they are knives or not.
At this time, the desk in the imperial study room was placed on the dragon's desk, and the Emperor of Sui Yang Jian had already read it.
The document not only records the case that the King of Qin covered up the son of Han Jiang, the general of Zuowei Guard, but also three years ago, the King of Qin set up a private punishment to kill a guest in the royal palace, and even the other party's wife was not spared.
Seeing these things, Emperor Sui Yang Jian frowned and asked, "Where do you know these?"
If Yang Shuang were here, she would realize the problem of Emperor Sui's attitude.
Because he did not ask whether the evidence was conclusive, he asked where he learned it, which shows that Emperor Sui's first thought was that Yang Xiu and Yang Liang were retaliating against Yang Jun because his uncle Qian Yixiao was thoroughly investigated.
But Yang Xiu and Yang Liang did not realize this problem, but hurriedly said, "Father, the servant of the son minister, had heard of it unintentionally, so they followed the clues and found the witnesses and the officials in charge of the case, and then interrogated them strictly before they could reveal the truth. Father, the King of Qin ignored His Majesty's holy grace and asked Father to make the decision!"
"Yes, Father! As a prince of the Great Sui Dynasty, he could not set an example for all officials. He actually abused the law for personal gain, abused his prince's privileges, and was cruel and unkind. He was ashamed of his father's teachings!"
"I would also like to ask my father to make an excuse for the victims of the tragic death!"
...
It is worthy of being a brother, and he sang and reunion, which forced Emperor Sui to attack.
The face of Emperor Sui became even worse and worse. Suddenly, he slapped the table and shouted: "Shut up!"
The two of them were shocked and silent on the spot.
The Emperor Sui threw the document out and shouted, "Your guests didn't hear it earlier, but they didn't hear it later, but now they heard it. It's such a coincidence! Don't think I don't know what you two are thinking!"
Yang Xiu and Yang Liang were surprised. They didn't expect His Majesty to have this attitude, but now that things have come to this, they must bite the bullet and go on.
Yang Xiu said: "Father, Qian Yixiao is guilty and must be severely punished by the law. The sons will never dare to shelter him. Please ask the father to observe clearly!"
Yang Liang also said: "Yes, Father, although Qian Yixiao is the uncle of his son minister, he is ashamed of his father's favor and cannot tolerate it. And it is true that King Yang Jun of Qin has protected him for personal gain. Please observe it clearly!"
Both of them are not stupid. If you just excuse Qian Yixiao, your Majesty will be even more angry. Moreover, Qian Yixiao's evidence of crime is basically conclusive, and I am afraid that he will not be able to maintain his official position. Instead of doing so, it is better to directly destroy his relatives for justice.
Sure enough, when he heard the two people's blunt statements, the anger of Emperor Sui Yang Jian dissipated a lot. He focused on the desk again, and then picked it up and looked through it.
The more he looked, the more his brows tightened, and he immediately said to Du Ankang: "Summon the King of Qin into the palace... and Gao Feng!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Du Ankang immediately sent an internal official to communicate.
Qin Wang Mansion.
Yang Jun was listening to the song when he suddenly heard the oral order from the palace to summon him, and he smiled and said, "I was about to enter the palace to meet the saint, but I didn't expect that Your Majesty would summon me first."
As he said that, Yang Jun picked up the memorial on the table and sneered: "Everything that should be investigated has been found. With the six sects investigated, Qian Yixiao's position as the Left Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will not only be unsecured, but he will also be imprisoned."
The person standing by the side was Zang Kang.
Zang Kang smiled and said, "Congratulations to Your Highness, Your Highness has made contributions in punishing corrupt officials. Your Majesty sees it, and you can then run a new candidate for the Left Minister. At that time, the Left Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will be his Highness's belongings."
"Haha... That's right! This time I offended the King of Yue and King of Han, just for the Ministry of Revenue." Yang Jun immediately looked overjoyed.
Then, Yang Jun stood up, changed his clothes and entered the palace.
When I arrived at the Imperial Study Room, I saw Yang Xiu and Yang Liang.
Looking at His Majesty again, his face was a little calm. Yang Jun was secretly happy, thinking that Yang Xiu and the others were asking for Qian Yixiao, which angered His Majesty.
So Yang Jun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My son is paying homage to my father and wish him the sacred body of Jin An. Father, this is the beginning and end of the case of Qian Yixiao, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who was corrupt and abused the law. Qian Yixiao, corrupt and abused the law, embezzled the treasury money. He ignored the court's laws and went to visit prostitutes openly..."
Yang Jun revealed six crimes.
Yang Xiu and Yang Liang were so angry that they gritted their teeth. Which of the powerful people in Kyoto has no problem? For example, selling official positions is a normal move between officials. Isn’t it normal to be filial to some money? How can it be selling official positions? There is no clear price tag.
After hearing Yang Jun’s story, Emperor Sui Yang Jian raised his hand and said, “Let’s leave the Qian Yixiao case aside for the time being. Today I will call you here. If you have something to ask you, you can take a look at this first.”
Du Ankang immediately presented the document to him.
Yang Jun was a little curious and didn't know what happened, so he immediately took the check. This glance immediately made Yang Jun feel panicked, and a cold air spread across his back.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Jun quickly denied: "Father, this is a false accusation, this is definitely a false accusation! Who is this? It's simply nonsense, it's simply evil!"
"King of Qin, this is the truth we obtained after investigation! The evidence is conclusive, do you still want to deny it?" Yang Xiu shouted.
"That's right! You still don't repent if you have a solid evidence. Do you know that deceiving your father is a serious crime?" Yang Liang also shouted.
Yang Jun held the document tightly, wishing to tear up the two bastards, but he secretly investigated his faults and started to fight back. No, he must not admit his guilt! Once he pleaded guilty, the task he had finally fought for would be gone, and he would be scolded by his father and all his previous efforts would be wasted.
So Yang Jun hurriedly said, "This is a slander, why should I admit it? Father, the contents of the document are all false accusations. I also asked the father to make the decision and give my son a cleansing innocence!"
"Innocence? Is it the one who died tragically?" Yang Xiu and Yang Liang immediately sneered.
Seeing that the three of them were upset, Emperor Sui slapped the table and shouted: "Stop quarrel!"
The three of them immediately remained silent and waited respectfully.
At this time, Gao Yang also entered the palace and was already waiting outside.
Yang Shuang summoned him immediately.
Gao Yang walked in and immediately noticed that the atmosphere was not right. He quickly greeted him and stood waiting for him.
Emperor Yang Jian of Sui said in a deep voice: "Whether the situation is true, you can only know if it is clear. I called Gao Yan to take charge of the matter. After finding out, it will be clear at a glance who is right or wrong. It will be a foregone conclusion whether it is false or not."
Then, Emperor Sui paused, glanced at the three princes, and said, "Don't say that I didn't give you a chance! Now, I will be a lighter move. If I wait until the results are found out, don't blame me for severe punishment. As a prince, I should be an example of officials in the world. If even you do anything wrong, what do the people in the world think?"
Yang Xiu and Yang Liang immediately said, "Father, my sons dare not deceive me, we must investigate thoroughly!"
Yang Jun could only bite the bullet and said, "We must investigate thoroughly to restore my innocence!"
"Okay!" Seeing that the three of them were still stubborn and had no intention of taking the actual tricks, Emperor Sui decided to investigate.
Only Gao Yang wondered, what happened?
Then, the four of them retreated.
After walking out of the imperial study room, Gao Yang held the desk and realized what had happened.
With Gao Yang's intelligence and talent, it was immediately obvious that Yang Jun had a problem.
Yang Liang and Yang Xiu are prepared and will not cheat, and flies do not bite seamless eggs. How could Yang Jun, as the King of Qin, be without fault?
Just as Gao Yang was thinking about how to investigate, Yang Xiu and Yang Liang smiled and said, "Mr. Gao, you have always been selfless and obeyed the law. I believe that the truth will be found this time."
"Please rest assured, your highness." Gao Yang said.
Yang Jun gritted his teeth, glanced at Yang Xiu and Yang Liang coldly, and then left with a swaying sleeve.
After returning to the Qin Palace, Yang Jun was angry and smashed it. He was so scared that the guards and maids dared not approach.
"Call Zan Kang and the others!" Yang Jun yelled after smashing it.
Not long after, all his advisers arrived.
Seeing Yang Jun's gloomy expression, Zang Kang knew what had happened, so he asked, "Your Highness, what happened?"
"Yang Xiu, Yang Liang, the two thieves, actually secretly imprisoned me! I was so angry that I was so angry!" Yang Jun growled.
Then, Yang Juncai told the story.
After hearing this, the strategists changed slightly.
Someone said: "Your Highness, the most urgent task is to get rid of suspicion! First of all, we must tell Han Jiang and his son Han Qiusheng that you must not implicate Your Highness!"
"It's better to let Han Qiusheng confess his guilt and admit that he was the one who bought others, not the Qin Palace!"
"As for the dead guard and his wife, they have been around for a long time and have no evidence of death. You can find someone to take the blame!"
...
A group of strategists began to come up with ideas and tried hard to get rid of Yang Shuang's suspicion.
Yang Jun's emotions calmed down a lot. When he saw Zang Kang not saying a word, he asked, "Zang Kang, what do you think?"
Zan Kang sighed, "Your Highness, this matter is indeed difficult! Especially when Your Majesty handed this matter over to Gao Yang, Dali Temple, for investigation, instead of Zongzheng Temple or other things, it was just the selflessness of Gao Yang. Although Your Highness intends to have a good relationship with Gao Yang during this period, I am afraid that Gao Yang will not turn a blind eye."
"Yes, this is what I worry about the most!" Yang Jun said hatefully.
Zang Kang's eyes flashed, and he immediately said, "Your Highness, you must ask the master to take action in this matter."
"Who?" Yang Jun asked.
Zang Kang said: "It is your highness's uncle, Wang Qianhe."
Yang Jun was stunned, then understood Zang Kang's meaning and agreed: "It's reasonable and it's reasonable! Why did I forget this? My uncle used to be the Minister of Dali Temple, and Gao Yan was the Minister of Dali Temple at that time. Gao Yan was selfless, but he had received the kindness of my uncle, so he still had to give him a slight face."
Zang Kang said again: "Your Highness, the end of the year is approaching, and Your Majesty is about to be the first to be a written writer. The court will not be held after the sixth day of the year. We still have time to operate."
"I'll send someone to invite my uncle to Beijing now!" Yang Jun came to make arrangements.
...
