"Master Tang Lian, please don't get excited! At present, this is just an inference and there is no conclusive evidence yet."
Yang Qingyuan's clear and gentle voice immediately calmed down Tang Lian, who was extremely excited just now.
At this time, in Yuzhou City, as the founder of the Tang Sect, Tang Lian no longer dared to be disrespectful or transgressed in the slightest in front of this world-famous master of the Heavenly, Elephant and Earth Realm.
Yang Qingyuan wanted to kill Tang Lian, just like killing a chicken!
"yes!"
Tang Lian sat back down in his seat honestly.
"You just said that there is no recipe for Styx water passed down in the Tang Sect, but is it true?!"
Tang Lian sat on his seat and answered honestly, "That's right! I heard the name of the Styx River water mentioned by my father."
Tang Lian's father was Tang Zhang's half-brother, but Tang Lian's father was born from a concubine and was just a concubine.
"That is a strange poison developed by Tang Xiaotian, the ancestor of our Tang Sect, the master of the Ten Thousand Medicine Hall. However, our Tang Sect's philosophy has always been 'concealed weapons first', and strange poisons have always been just a side theory."
When Tang Lian said this, Yang Qingyuan couldn't help but complain in his heart. In the eyes of other sects, "hidden weapons" are also heresy.
Tang Lian didn't know what Yang Qingyuan was thinking, so he continued to explain, "So this Styx water formula was destroyed by Tang Lingfeng, the head of the Tang Sect at that time. The only person who knew the details was Tang Xiaotian. Later, something happened to our Tang Sect, and Tang Xiaotian died. , there is no more water from the Styx in the Tang Sect!"
"Oh?!" Yang Qingyuan obviously didn't believe this statement.
Back then, Ming Yuexin and Gong Ziyu were repelled by Wang Zhijun using the water of the Styx.
"Master Tang Lian, I know more than you think. Don't make any mistakes!" Yang Qingyuan's words were meaningful.
Tang Lian trembled when he heard this, "Yang Hou Rongzhen, I really don't know much about this matter, but I heard from my father that back then, the old lady...well...that is, Mr. Wang Zhi, once used the water of the Styx to repel the eldest lady and the people she brought. But when it happened, I had just been born and was still in my infancy, so I had no idea whether it was true or false!"
In this matter, Tang Lian was really a little aggrieved.
After all, at his age, he didn't know what happened during the ceremony, let alone whether Styx water was used.
Yang Qingyuan nodded, agreeing with Tang Lian's statement.
"After that, was there any trace of the Styx water in the Tang Sect?!"
"This..." Tang Lian hesitated for a moment and began to try to remember, but he really couldn't think of any results.
"Yang Hou, the water of the Styx in the Tang Sect should have been exhausted after dealing with Tang Lan!"
But it was obvious that Yang Qingyuan was not satisfied with this result.
"Then let me ask you, how much do you know about your current sect leader?"
Yang Qingyuan's question made Tang Lian hesitate again.
From the Tang Sect's perspective, Tang Zhang is indeed a qualified sect leader. After the Tang Sect's rebellion that year, Tang Zhang came to power.
In the past thirty years, the Tang Sect he was in charge of had indeed recovered part of its vitality. The hidden weapons in the sect had developed to a certain extent, and the Tang Sect's originally declining influence had begun to recover.
Tangmen once again became one of the most powerful sects in Yizhou.
But Tang Lian knew in his heart that this was definitely not what Yang Qingyuan asked.
"What exactly do you want to ask, Marquis Yang?!"
In front of Tang Lian, Yang Qingyuan rarely had a warm smile on his face, but in Tang Lian's opinion, this smile was obviously malicious.
"I want to ask about what happened when Tang Zhang's sect leader came to power!"
Tang Zhang's rise to power was based on three premises:
1. The Tang Sect’s only Dongxuan Realm warrior, the Great Elder Tang Jieying, died of serious injuries.
2. The old lady of the Tang clan, Wang Zhijun, also died of illness half a year after the death of the great elder.
3. Tang Taiyue, the leader of the Tang Sect, suddenly disappeared...
Because of these three premises, the Tang Sect had the basis for civil strife.
As long as one of these three people is still alive, the Tang Sect will be able to survive.
It was also because of this civil strife that Tang Zhang, the hall master who was originally responsible for the Tang Sect's logistics, came to power.
But in Yang Qingyuan's view, there is something fishy between these three things.
The three most prestigious people in the Tang Sect are either dead or missing. This possibility is too small.
First of all, the news about the deaths of Tang Jieying and Wang Zhijun was that they died of serious injuries.
Judging from this news, it seems that the two of them died indirectly at the hands of Gong Ziyu.
But this issue requires analysis. First of all, Ming Yue Xin and Gong Zi Yu are lovers, and Ming Yue Xin, also known as Tang Lan, came to Tang Clan not for revenge, but to control Tang Clan.
Firstly, he can clear his name, and secondly, the Tang Clan can help Gongzi Yu regain his country.
And Wang Zhijun is Tang Lan's biological mother, and there is no irresolvable hatred between the two parties. Why did Tang Lan kill Wang Zhijun? !
And Tang Jieying is the only Dongxuan Realm in the Tang Sect. This is the Dongxuan Realm before the world changes. The old Dongxuan Realm has its own abilities. For Gong Ziyu who wanted to take over the Tang Sect for his own use, the possibility of killing someone was extremely slim.
As for Tang Taiyue, he is Tang Lan's elder brother and Gong Ziyu's uncle, and Tang Taiyue treats Tang Lan very well. There is a conflict of interest between the two parties, but there is no personal grudge.
The deaths and disappearances of these three people do not look like they were caused by Gong Ziyu and Tang Lan.
After the death of these three people, huge turmoil immediately broke out in the Tang Sect, and all the Tang Sect masters were lost.
Looking at this incident, who has benefited the most? !
Tang Zhang!
This seemingly peaceful person, but actually very scheming, turned out to be the final beneficiary of this drastic change in the Tang Sect.
From a hall leader in charge of logistics, he rose to the position of Tang Sect's leader.
Although the Tang Sect was severely damaged, for Tang Zhang's lineage, the gains were indeed huge.
Tang Zheng and Tang Taiyue are still within the third server, but Tang Zhang's son has left the third server.
According to the rules of the Tang Sect, a descendant of the Tang family must be within the third server to become a candidate for the Tang Sect's sect leader.
In other words, Tang Zhang's generation has the last chance. If Tang Zhang cannot become the leader of the Tang Sect, then Tang Zhang's lineage will no longer have a chance!
Under this situation, Tang Zhang took control of the chaotic Tang Sect and assumed the position of the leader of the Tang Sect.
In this Tang Clan rebellion, he was the one who benefited the most!
That's why Yang Qingyuan asked Tang Lian about Tang Zhang's rise to power.
When the Tang Clan was in chaos, the imperial court's control over Yizhou was still weak, and the intelligence could not be completely detailed. In this regard, the intelligence library of Hulong Villa was blank.
Tang Lian smiled bitterly, and Yang Qingyuan once again asked a question that he couldn't answer. Although he no longer needed anyone to hug him about the drastic changes in the Tang clan, he was still a child. What could he know!
And even if he knew it, he didn't want to say it.
Although Tang Chi and Tang Lian were competing with Tang Wei for the position of head of the Tang clan, Tang Zhang was their uncle after all.
"Yang Hou, I don't know much about this matter. I only know that the Tang Sect was torn apart at that time and there were constant internal fights. It was my uncle who picked up the pieces and saved the Tang Sect from falling apart."
But judging from the results, Tang Zhang was the hero of the Tang clan, who saved the Tang clan and revived it.
Although Tang Lian's family had some friction with Tang Zhang's family, it was only an internal matter after all.
"I mean, is it possible that Tang Zhang still has water from the Styx?!"
Although Yang Qingyuan's words were euphemistic, they were directed at Tang Zhang.
Tang Chi died in the Styx water. If Tang Zhang had the Styx water, who was the murderer? !
What Yang Qingyuan did was just plant a thorn in Tang Chi's heart to drive a wedge between the Tang clan.
Compared with ordinary martial arts sects, family sects are more like a monolith. It takes some effort to clean up. However, if there is a struggle within the Tang sect and the struggle becomes fierce, then the disintegration of the Tang sect will only take a moment.
Sure enough, after Yang Qingyuan finished speaking, Tang Chi's dark complexion changed.
Although Tang Chi didn't know whether Tang Zhang had water from the Styx, it didn't stop him from becoming suspicious.
Yang Qingyuan didn't provoke him too much. If he dug too many holes, others would notice and take precautions.
Such a big pit is enough for a person with strong limbs like Tang Chi to climb for a long time.
But even though he was suspicious, Tang Chi did not reveal the inside story about Tang Zhang and the Tang Clan Rebellion.
Yang Qingyuan did not force it, but pretended to ask a few questions and let Tang Chi leave.
After Tang Chi left, Liu Wangshu walked out from behind the screen.
With her martial arts skills, it was impossible for Tang Chi to discover her.
"Brother Yang, you started cheating people again!"
Liu Meizi knew Yang Qingyuan very well, and she was talking about Yang Qingyuan.
"Wang Shu, you have wronged me! I have always been kind and amiable to others! I just want Tang Chi to work hard to find the truth about his brother's death."
Yang Qingyuan said that he is a good person!
"Huh!" Liu Meizi said coquettishly. Only Yang Qingyuan could see such a charming appearance.
"Wang Shu, I want to go back to the capital of Shu. The imperial guard has arrived for three days, but my deposed envoy has not shown up yet. Now the people in Shu capital should be worried for several days!"
"Then how did they stop the officials of Shudu from meeting you, the superior officer?" Liu Wangshu became curious.
Although she is not in the officialdom, she has been with Yang Qingyuan for many years, so she naturally knows the rules of the officialdom.
If Yang Qingyuan, the deposed ambassador in charge of life and death in Yizhou, did not show up for a day, Yizhou officials would not be able to sleep peacefully.
Of course, he couldn't sleep even if Yang Qingyuan showed up, but the unknown was the most frightening.
"I declare to the public that I occasionally feel cold!" Yang Qingyuan said with an indifferent expression.
Liu Wangshu couldn't help but said with disdain, "Brother Yang, you are so shameless!"
A dignified master of heavenly phenomena and earth realm claims he occasionally feels cold. Does anyone believe it? !
Yang Qingyuan said that it didn't matter to him whether the Yizhou officials believed it or not. It was a great honor for him to take the time to deal with these people!
"I'll leave Yuzhou City to you!" Yang Qingyuan said, taking off his jade talisman from his body.
"If someone in the Tang Sect makes any rash move, if necessary, you can hold my jade talisman and mobilize the six gates of Yuzhou City and the surrounding garrison to suppress it!"
Yang Qingyuan is now the deposed envoy of Yizhou and holds the military and political power of Yizhou. His jade talisman is enough to mobilize ordinary patrolling county soldiers.
Liu Wangshu didn't feel any psychological pressure at all. He took the jade talisman from Yang Qingyuan and weighed it.
Yang Qingyuan is now of the same rank as Jue, so the jade he uses is naturally the best jadeite.
What's Brother Yang's is mine, Liu Wangshu accepted it without any ceremony, and had no intention of paying it back!
So far, Yang Qingyuan’s two major tokens have been given away!
The seal symbolizing Yang Qingyuan's title and military power was in the hands of Pingyang Marquis Cao Xueyang, which reminded the military affairs of the capital.
The jade talisman symbolizing Yang Qingyuan's personal identity is now in Liu Wangshu's hands!
A certain white-haired lolita: Me! And me! ...Minors please go aside first! ==============================
"What?! Mr. Yang wants to meet with officials from Yizhou! Hasn't he been claiming to be sick?"
Yi Governor Shi Li Changdeng felt a little embarrassed when he heard the news.
The imperial guards of the imperial court have arrived in the capital of Shu for three days, but Yang Qingyuan, the deposed envoy, has been claiming to be ill.
Combined with the previous discovery of his traces in Yuzhou, Yang Qingyuan must be investigating something secretly!
Now that Yang Qingyuan has appeared and is close to the officials in Yizhou, he must have found something!
But until now, they still don't know what Yang Qingyuan knows and what evidence he has in his hands!
This made Li Changdeng, an old bureaucrat who had been in the second-in-command position in Yizhou for many years, feel uneasy.
"Mr. Changdeng, what should we do?!" All Yizhou officials headed by Li Changdeng looked at Li Changdeng.
"Nowadays, everyone is a swordsman, and I am a fish. We can only hope that he will be gentle when he cuts." Li Changden held the tea cup in his hand, his expression as usual.
"Chang Denggong! This..."
The second half of the sentence was not spoken, but everyone knew that wasn't this just letting others slaughter you? !
Li Changdeng had no intention of explaining. Instead, he continued to ask, "Have you cleaned up the mess I asked you to clean up?"
"It's all tidied up!" After the man answered, he continued to ask, "Mr. Chang Deng, why don't we think of a solution?!"
Li Changdeng turned around and stared at him dimly, "Wu Tongpan, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
Wu Tongpan was not from Yizhou, but his favorite concubine was from a wealthy family in the capital of Shu!
Among everyone present, his degree of collusion with Yizhou's local tycoons ranks among the top three.
Therefore, Wu Tongpan is in a hurry now!
He knew what he had done. If Yang Qingyuan found out, he would not be able to chop off three heads, so he was unwilling to hand over the initiative to Yang Qingyuan? !
Packing up the mess and waiting for Yang Qingyuan to investigate, isn't this equivalent to being a pig in a pigsty, waiting to be picked and slaughtered? !
Which one to kill, which one to kill, is all a matter of words!
"Mr. Chang Deng, we can't sit still and wait for death! This Yang Qingyuan is a living king of hell! When he takes action, how can we survive?!"
Li Changdeng sneered in his heart, but his face still looked indifferent.
"Wu Tongpan means to fight against the imperial court!?"
Wu Tongpan said hurriedly, "Chang Deng's words are serious. Wu is an official of the imperial court. How could he do such a thing against the imperial court?!"
He changed the topic and continued, "But the deposed envoy, as soon as he arrived in the capital of Sichuan, he occasionally felt cold, which is obviously a symptom of acclimatization!
This kind of disease can be small or small, but it can be big or serious. If you are not careful, you can easily contract the epidemic! This is the most dangerous thing! If the deposed envoy really dies of illness, the imperial court will have no choice but to send another person! "
Wu Tongpian's words seemed to have a bright future, which made many people start to feel swayed.
ps:
In the new year, may you all have snow in the mountains and begonias remain the same. Be happy and successful, and everything can be expected.
