Although Yang Bin is old and may not have such needs, Emperor Gaozu has only been dead for more than ten years. The beautiful women who entered the palace back then were more than ten years younger, and now they are only in their thirties and forties. At the age when a wolf is like a tiger, once a vigorous young man enters Ganye Temple...
Li Yuanjing finally understood the reason why the "Baiqisi" made so many arrests and caused uproar in the city, but refused to give the reasons for the arrests.
This kind of thing is already a shame to the royal family. Who dares to spread it everywhere?
Li Yuanjing breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it was not aimed at him, it would be fine. Although he did not realize that there was any evidence, but as the saying goes, "If you want others not to know, you have to do nothing about it." If his treacherous plans were leaked, he would suffer a lot. It will be a disaster.
When the danger is over, a sense of envy and jealousy arises in my heart.
At that time, Emperor Gaozu was forced to abdicate and live in seclusion in Daxing Palace. In order to compensate for the love between father and son, His Majesty Li Er collected the beauties from all over the world and filled them into the forbidden garden for Emperor Gaozu's enjoyment. But Emperor Gaozu was already old at that time and his energy was limited. How many beauties could he be blessed with?
After the death of Emperor Gaozu, all those beauties were sent to Ganye Temple to practice, and the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha ended his remaining life.
Those stunning figures among them should be ripe at this time, but they have been lonely for a long time...
Just thinking about it makes Li Yuanjing a little jealous, but he is so big that he would never dare to do such a thing, no matter how envious he is. If it is leaked, His Majesty Li Er will definitely cut him into pieces.
*****
At noon, people from the house came to the Yamen of the Ministry of War and told what happened last night when Li Chongyi took Wei Ting and Wei Hong's uncle and nephew to the house to plead for mercy. Among them, the agreement Wu Meiniang reached with Wei Ting was told in detail.
Fang Jun sent the people away and sat in the duty room to sort out his official duties.
He does have the intention to suppress Jingzhao Weishi, and has even obtained the tacit approval of Xiao Yu, Ma Zhou, Li Daozong and others. He only needs to borrow the topic from the case of Wei Hongguang's death, which is enough for Jingzhao Weishi to use it to severely punish him. of blow. It can not only attack the recent rising momentum of Jingzhao Webster, but also can shock the mountain and make those with ulterior motives dare not act rashly.
However, judging from the scene of the "Hundred Qisi" arrests, this matter is too deeply involved and has too heavy a impact. If the topic is used rashly, it is likely to cause the entire situation to get out of control.
At this juncture, any political means must make way for stability in Guanzhong. Once there is chaos in Guanzhong, it will not only cause a major blow to the prince's ability to supervise the country, but may also allow foreign enemies to take advantage of it, and even give rise to thieves within Chang'an who covet imperial power. The opportunity of the matter.
So be extremely cautious.
Under this situation, the most important thing should be to eliminate this chaos as soon as possible, rather than taking the opportunity to suppress Jingzhao Webster.
At noon, when duty was about to go off, a chamberlain from the East Palace came and said that the prince was in love.
Fang Jun immediately changed into a set of clothes in the duty room, went out and walked out of the yamen surrounded by soldiers. He followed the orderly streets and alleys north to Tianjie, which connects the east and west, and then turned eastward. Arrive in front of the East Palace Gate.
Li Zhi stood in his check-in room, looking at Fang Jun's crowd from the window, and couldn't help but shake his head.
The Yamen of the Ministry of War is located within the imperial city, only a few miles away from the East Palace, and the surrounding area is heavily guarded. But even so, Fang Jun still didn't dare to be careless at all. The security force around him was always sufficient, and he didn't give those who wanted to put him to death the slightest chance.
Moreover, the soldiers around him are all fierce soldiers who followed him in the north and south. They are all brave and good at fighting, one is as good as ten, and their fighting power is very powerful.
If you really want to assassinate Fang Jun, it will be difficult to succeed unless you use a strong force to surround and kill him.
Within Guanzhong, there are only a handful of people who can mobilize a brigade of soldiers at will. Who would take such a risk and send someone to assassinate Fang Jun?
You know, when Fang Jun went to Zhongnan Mountain to have a tryst with Princess Changle, there was a group of powerful soldiers who wanted to take advantage of the dark night and rain to surround and kill him. As a result, not only was he discovered without even being able to get close to her, he was almost exposed himself. Whereabouts, suffering the death penalty...
The uncle's words were indeed prescient. If he wanted to assassinate Fang Jun, there would be absolutely no chance in Guanzhong. If he wanted to be effective, he would have to be transferred out of Guanzhong.
Because only by getting out of the four passes that blockade Chang'an can it be possible to mobilize the army to encircle and kill...
…
When Fang Jun came to the East Palace, he was already waiting in front of the door and brought him into the palace.
Li Chengqian summoned him in Lizheng Hall.
Fang Jun arrived at the door of Lizheng Hall and entered the hall under the guidance of the chamberlain. He saw Li Chengqian sitting on the main seat and Li Junxian, who was dressed in military uniform and wearing a helmet, sitting at the bottom.
Fang Jun stepped forward, bowed and said: "I have an audience with Your Highness, and I have met General Li."
With a frown on his face, Li Chengqian waved his hands casually and said, "No need to be polite, Lord Yue. Please take your seat."
Li Junxian did not dare to show off, so he stood up and returned the courtesy: "I have seen Duke Yue at last."
He had watched with his own eyes as Fang Jun reached his current position step by step, with a powerful position and an unlimited future. How could he dare to be disrespectful at all?
When Fang Jun sat down, Li Chengqian said to Li Junxian with a sad face: "General Li, please tell the Duke of Yue about what happened last night in detail."
"Here!"
Li Junxian agreed, sat up straight and recounted what happened last night.
"After receiving the report, the general went to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and brought all the Wei family disciples and the body of Wei Hongguang back to the 'Baiqisi' for strict interrogation..."
Fang Jun didn't pay much attention to these details at the beginning, but later, he was stunned.
Li Junxian could only be heard saying: "Wei Hongguang of the Jingzhao Wei family had good relations with Li Xian, the seventh son of King Jiang'an. Li Xian often took Wei Hongguang and a few others to and from Ganye Temple in the name of visiting his grandmother Yang Concubine. . He was bribed by the servants of the temple and the imperial army, but he was not expelled, and he was even allowed to stay in the temple..."
Speaking of which, is there anything else Fang Jun doesn’t understand?
Where is Ganye Temple? That is where the emperor's concubines practiced Taoism after his death. At present, the only emperor who died in the Tang Dynasty was Emperor Gaozu, so all the concubines and concubines of Gaozu were in Ganye Temple.
Well, these children from aristocratic families are really good at playing, and they actually played on Emperor Gaozu...
Especially the one from the Wang family in Jiang'an, is it really pleasurable to enjoy your grandfather's concubine? Even if you feel very comfortable and can satisfy your inner turmoil, don't you think about the consequences?
Now, not only will you die, but your father's prince may even have to be wiped off...
It’s no wonder that the city gates were blocked all night, and the “Hundred Qisi” arrested people everywhere, but no one ever gave a clear explanation.
How do you say this?
Who dares to say?
Fang Jun looked at Li Junxian, who smiled bitterly and said: "The general is also helpless. I don't know how to deal with it, so I can only report it to His Highness."
Fang Jun nodded, Li Junxian really couldn't handle this matter.
Even if a member of the royal family rebels, Li Junxian can kill him first and report it later, but he has no right to deal with this kind of scandal involving the royal family...
As they were talking, the servant from outside came in and said, "Your Highness, I am asking for an audience with you."
Li Chengqian said: "Please come quickly."
"Here."
After a while, Li Yuanjia, the king of Zongzheng and Han Dynasty, walked in quickly. He was wearing official robes and was meticulously dressed. Although he was middle-aged, he was still handsome and looked good.
Li Yuanjia came forward to see him and saluted, while Fang Jun and Li Junxian also stood up and saluted.
After greeting each other, Li Yuanjia sat down and asked, "Why is it that your Highness is so anxious to summon the ministers?"
This time, Li Chengqian didn't need to give orders, so Li Junxian explained the cause and effect of the matter again.
Li Yuanjia's eyes widened...
This is a huge scandal!
He couldn't help but ask: "Can General Li find out whether there is any hidden secret in it?"
He asked this question, but he also knew that he was afraid that this matter would not be false. Li Xian and Wei Hongguang were young, strong, and vigorous people. They went to Ganye Temple from time to time. Apart from doing obscene things like going out, could they go to see the scenery?
Li Junxian said in a deep voice: "The matter is of great importance. Even if the general has a hundred courages, how dare he not pass on His Highness after the evidence is conclusive? Now not only are the children of those aristocratic families arrested and thrown into prison, their confessions are consistent, and the people in Ganye Temple are also arrested. The bribed chamberlains and imperial guards were also arrested one by one, and there is no doubt about it."
Li Yuanjia has a splitting headache, what should he do?
He quickly looked at Li Chengqian and asked, "Your Highness, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
As an official, when you encounter something difficult to solve, you naturally have to ask your superiors for instructions. This is not just a show of respect for the superior, as long as the disposal power is handed over to the superior, it also means throwing the pot away...
