Early the next morning, the morning court was held as scheduled in the magnificent Chinese Palace. Yang Guang, wearing a crown, sat on a dragon chair and discussed national affairs with hundreds of civil and military officials.
The ice and snow in Guanzhong have melted, and the upcoming spring plowing has become the top priority of the court during this period. After all, agriculture is the foundation of a country, so for the Sui Dynasty, which had a population of more than 55 million, spring plowing every year was nothing less than a tough battle. If spring plowing is delayed and grain production is reduced, it will affect one year's harvest, one year's taxes, and one or two years' living standards of the people.
Yang Guang also attached great importance to this, and repeatedly told Shangshu Sheng and Sinongqing to seize livelihood, actively expand fields, and encourage people to produce. Many ministers also proposed many policies that were beneficial to the country and the people. Yang Ji followed them one by one if he thought they were reasonable. Even if he had objections, he did not rely on subjective judgment, but discussed with the ministers and pooled the wisdom of everyone to solve existing problems. .
In front of this group of wise men, all difficulties were overcome one by one, and there was almost no problem that remained unresolved.
The whole court showed a peaceful atmosphere.
Yang Ji knelt down on the cushions and listened with interest to the discussions between the emperors and ministers of the Sui Dynasty. Although he was the son of a farmer in his previous life, he was not an official and did not make a living by farming, so he didn't know much about agriculture. But after listening to it for most of an hour, not only did I gain a lot, but I personally feel that ancient high-level officials definitely paid more attention to agriculture than previous generations, and provided more mature solutions than previous generations.
On the one hand, the Sui Dynasty had a single industry, and the whole country relied on the weather and agriculture to maintain the country's stability, so the court was studying agricultural issues every year; on the other hand, all policies and systems related to agriculture It has been valued by all dynasties, and the quality of the harvest has always been an important criterion for assessing the performance of local officials. Therefore, from the emperor to the county officials, agriculture is valued. After generations of research, improvement, and summary, in the In terms of agriculture, there is already a mature and effective plan.
In the previous life, the problem of food and clothing was no longer a problem, and having enough food and clothing was no longer a pursuit of most people. Therefore, there were fewer and fewer people engaged in agriculture, fewer and fewer people understood agriculture, and officials at all levels also The focus has shifted from agriculture to the popular commerce, so officials and people are definitely not as familiar with agriculture as the Sui Dynasty officials who were dealing with agriculture year after year.
Which one is better or worse is unclear. It can only be said that different eras have different needs and priorities.
After making arrangements for spring plowing, Yang Guang took a memorandum from the imperial court and presented it to the civil and military ministers: "Let's discuss the second matter today, which is to consider the murder case of someone who was not drunk and did not return to the wine shop. Zhang Yushi will preside over this matter. You may wish to listen to the case with me."
As soon as Yang Guang said this, he immediately caused an uproar in the whole hall, and the sound of discussion resounded throughout the hall.
This case was originally just a small and inconspicuous case. The civil and military officials present at first paid a little attention to it because the two parties involved in the case were well-connected. Until yesterday afternoon, it was rumored that Yu Wenshu manipulated the martial arts and Yu Shiji "crossed the line" to interfere in the affairs of the Shangshu Province. Only then did he take the case seriously. But no one expected that Yang Guang would bring this small case to the morning court for trial. Such a trial process is even more imaginative.
I remember that the last time such a case was tried was related to Yang Ji. He turned He Ruohuailiang into a eunuch. He Ruobi complained to the court, and the late emperor had to go to the court for trial. That time, because Yang Guang, who was the prince at the time, helped, As a result, all the He Ruo clan met a miserable end. Except for the He Ruobi clan, all the others were killed.
This time, Yang Ji is no longer the young playboy, and Yu Wenshu is no longer the He Ruobi who lost his favor. They are all the "big celebrities" of the current dynasty who are favored by the saints. I really don't know who will win and who will lose in the end?
And some people who were prepared began to look forward to it with excitement.
"I obey the order!" Zhang Heng, the imperial censor, stood up and obeyed the order. He suddenly received an order to hear the case yesterday afternoon, but his focus was not on the case itself, but on whether the process was in violation of the rules. This was also the responsibility of Yushitai.
He urgently issued an order to summon all the important witnesses involved in the case to the Yushitai, including not only the entourage of both parties, the wine shopkeepers, servants and diners, but also the county magistrate Dou Qing, the county prime minister Qu Tugai, and the minister of punishment Liang Kun... Now Except for Yang Ji, Yu Wenshu, Liang Kun, Dou Qing, and Qu Tugai who were in the hall, the rest were waiting outside the hall.
Zhang Heng knew that the emperor was not just because both parties were his confidants, but actually had a deeper meaning.
The facts were just as Zhang Heng expected. After Yang Guang agreed to Yuwen Shu's court to hear the case yesterday, he specially summoned Dou Qing for questioning. When he understood the whole process, he knew that Yang Ji was on the passive side in the case, while Yuwen Shu was on the passive side. What a fuss.
Although Yuwen Zhiji was blind and seemed to be mute, judging from Yang Ji's reaction when he picked up the casserole and threw it over, it was a human instinct. The dead slave was even more to blame for himself, after all, he was the first to chop it down. Yang Ji stabbed Yang Ji, and as a prince, Yang Ji was almost killed by an animal-like domestic slave. Shouldn't he be allowed to resist? Counterattack?
This is unreasonable!
As for the statement in the confession that Yu Wenzhiji did not know Yang Ji, Yang Guang had the same preconceptions as Dou Qing and Qu Tugai. He felt that both parties were relatives and also playboys. It was impossible for Yu Wenzhiji not to know Yang Ji. The so-called "no" "Knowing" was nothing more than a poor excuse to cover up the reason why he struck the prince with his sword. Of course, if he keeps pretending that he doesn't know him, there's nothing anyone can do about him.
But regardless of whether Yang Ji was a prince or an ordinary citizen, if Yu Wen Zhiji suddenly struck him with a sword, he would not have violated the law. If Yang Ji didn't know martial arts, or if he were an ordinary person who didn't know martial arts, wouldn't his death have been in vain?
However, Yang Guang was also curious about what Yang Ji took away. What was it that was so precious that it made Yuwen Zhiji go crazy and want to kill a prince.
But Yuwenshu's performance made Yang Guang even more strange. From the current point of view, Yuwen Zhiji was the wrong party for provoking Yang Ji, but Yuwenshu was aggressive and hard on Yang Ji without any reason. . There is only one explanation for his unusual behavior, which is that Yu Wenshu wanted to use this case to achieve some purpose.
Seeing that Zhang Heng was waiting for his order, Yang Guang said, "Zhang Yushi, you can start."
"Yes!" Zhang Heng turned his eyes to Dou Qing and Qu Tugai who stepped forward voluntarily, and asked Dou Qing loudly: "What does County Magistrate Dou think of this case?"
Dou Qing bowed to Yang Guang and Zhang Heng respectively, and said unhurriedly: "This case is actually very simple. Because the shop owner reported the case in advance when he was not drunk, so soon after the death, the humble official and the Qutu County Magistrate We rushed to the scene. When we arrived in time, we took both parties to the fight and the diners to the county government office to record their confessions. While the confessions were being recorded, they were still interrogated in isolation, and the confessions we obtained were similar. Therefore, there was no need to alert the Ministry of Criminal Justice to this case. . However, what we can’t figure out is that Mr. Liang, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, hurried to the county government office yesterday afternoon for unknown reasons. He overturned everything without even reading the confession, intending to try it again.”
Zhang Heng saw Liang Kun standing up and wanted to speak, so he stopped him with a wave of his hand, and asked Dou Qing: "Please tell Dou County Magistrate the cause and effect to the saint and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty!"
"Yes!" Dou Qing saluted and continued: "King Wei and several friends who participated in the martial arts were drinking and eating when they were not drunk or returning. Yuwen Sanlang came up and forced Qin Qiong, Shan Xiongxin, and Huang Junhan to become the Yuwen family's fake sons, and the condition is' "First hand over 30% of the family property, and then pay tribute to one thousand taels of gold every year." However, none of the three candidates agreed, so Yuwen Saburo threatened, "If you don't comply, not only will your dog's life be in danger, but even your little one will not be able to live another day." Later. King Wei came forward to communicate with Yuwen Sanlang, and King Wei seemed to have taken some letters, so Yuwen Sanlang drew his sword and struck at King Wei. As a result, a conflict between the two sides was triggered. In the melee, Yuwen Liao, a slave of the Yuwen family, chopped Wei King Wei almost died on the spot with his sword, and accidentally killed Yuwen Liao in his panic."
"King Wei!" Zhang Heng bowed to Yang Ji and said, "Where are your clothes?"
Yang Ji replied: "As evidence at the county government office! Magistrate Dou should have brought it, right?"
"Bring it here!" Dou Qing took the baggage from Qu Tugai and handed it to Yang Ji, saying, "As long as King Wei puts it on, everyone will know how dangerous it was at that time."
"Okay!" Yang Ji took off his court clothes and gave them to Qu Tu, and then put on the brocade robe. When everyone looked at the upper body of the clothes, they knew they were Yang Ji's clothes, but after he walked back and forth, everyone was stunned. Everyone exclaimed, and saw that the front of the dress had a foot-long hole cut from top to bottom.
Yang Guang was expressionless as he sat on the dragon chair, but his face became a little gloomier. He is also a strong man with strong martial arts. You can tell at a glance from the width and depth of the cut that the knife struck Yang Ji from the side. In other words, Yu Wenliao attacked Yang Ji from the side. Yang Ji was able to fight in the melee. It was really thrilling to avoid this knife.
He was lucky enough to have been stabbed like this. In panic, he couldn't do anything extraordinary. Otherwise, why not just wait for the other party to stab him again?
"King Wei, are you sure this dress belongs to you?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Exactly!" Yang Ji smiled slightly: "This dress was made by my wife herself. She usually embroiders the word 'Ying' on the vest, which means that no matter where I, Yang Ji, am, she, Xiao Ying, is always there. The silent support behind her also means not to cheat on her behind her back!"
"puff!"
"Ha ha!"
The hall suddenly burst into laughter, and all the important civil and military officials burst out laughing.
Yang Guang couldn't help but laugh. The former meaning was normal, but the latter meaning... well, it was also normal in their old Yang family.
"Would you like to take it apart and take a look?" Yang Ji asked Zhang Heng.
"If possible, it's best to do this!" Zhang Heng said, "This will make people more convinced!"
"Okay!" Yang Ji took off the robe again and put on the court clothes. When he tore open the inner layer, Zhang Heng really saw the word 'ying' embroidered on the middle layer! Then he said: "This dress is indeed what King Wei wore that day!"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Heng asked Dou Qing: "Since the case is so simple, why didn't Magistrate Dou hand over the judgment document to the Ministry of Punishment? Are you trying to shirk your responsibility?"
Dou Qing said angrily: "The humble position and others are not shirking responsibility, but after we compiled the confession, the Minister of Justice Liang hurriedly went to the county government to transfer the case. The document from the Ministry of Justice also had the seal of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which the Ministry of Justice clearly used The Minister of Internal Affairs is forcing us to hand over the case, but we can’t do it if we don’t obey.”
"Do you have the seals of Shangshu Province and Menxia Province?"
"No!"
There was an uproar in the hall again. Such a simple and clear case unexpectedly involved the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Minister of Criminal Affairs. What is even more exaggerated is that there is no seal of the Ministry of Finance.
What does this mean?
It shows that the Minister of Criminal Affairs of the Shangshu Province actually acted on the orders of the Minister of Internal Affairs, but the Minister of Internal Affairs' hands were too long, and he actually reached out to the Minister of Finance. Such an overstep of authority like what Yu Shiji, the Minister of Internal Affairs, did Veteran officials such as Li Delin, Yu Qingze, Yang Xiong, Gao Jun, Yang Su, and Su Wei have never done it.
There were two people in the previous dynasty. These two people were Yu Wenhu and Yang Jian. The former was a powerful minister and the latter was the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty who usurped the power of the Zhou Dynasty.
It’s really thought-provoking that Yu Shiji did this! Does he want to be a powerful minister? Or the founding emperor?
And this case is becoming more and more interesting.
Yu Shiji looked at Yang Guang, who was in charge, and felt a little nervous. In fact, this kind of interference is the norm in official circles. Everyone's buttocks are dirty, so no one will speak publicly without real evidence. However, what he never expected was that the case would actually go to court, which would bring many more variables. If Yuwenshu couldn't win the case, he might be in trouble too.
But at this moment, he couldn't say anything and didn't dare to say anything.
There was a smile in Zhang Heng's eyes. After hearing the rumors yesterday that "Yu Shiji had 'crossed the line' and interfered in the affairs of the Shangshu Province," he had been studying the case all night, but there was no sign of Yu Shiji's interference in the case. But Dou Qing exposed Yu Shiji today, so he deliberately guided him. Dou Qing was really angry and exposed the core issues of the case.
The power struggle between ministers has always been murderous. There are many ministers who are jealous of the front position and want to replace the person in front of the court. Yu Shiji was unknown before, and he only relied on the emperor's trust to reach a high position. Although his rise to the top in one step is very glorious, it is also destined to have no stable foundation. Once such a person falls, it will be difficult to climb up. Woke up.
Therefore, many people are staring at Yu Shiji. Among them is Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng had the merit of supporting him. When Yang Guang ascended the throne, he was named the imperial censor, giving him the power to supervise all officials. The reason why Zhang Heng was not envious of the position of imperial censor was because of Yu Shiji's strong rise and his efforts to gain political power. The method made him feel threatened.
The problem exposed by Yu Shiji in this case was that he issued an ultimatum to the Ministry of Punishment in the name of the Ministry of Internal Affairs without the emperor's permission; and when he acted, he ignored the Ministry of Internal Affairs' checks and balances. This behavior shows that in this case, he played the role of a powerful official who deceived the emperor and monopolized the power of the three provinces. If he was allowed to become powerful, sooner or later he would develop into a real powerful official who could cover the sky with one hand, which would be of no benefit to anyone.
Now that he was exposed, not only the emperor was dissatisfied, but also all the civil and military officials in the dynasty felt threatened by this case. When the emperor was dissatisfied and the ministers hated him, how far could Yu Shiji, who had a weak foundation, go forward?
As the husband of the censor, Zhang Heng happens to have the power to impeach. As long as he takes the lead in impeachment, I believe that all civil and military officials who are in danger will gather to respond.
Of course, the key now is to help Yang Ji win this lawsuit. As long as Yang Ji wins, not only Yu Wenshu will suffer a lot, but Yu Shiji will also help Zhou become a gang of thieves. At that time, I believe the saint will deal with it even more vigorously.
Zhang Heng's thoughts only happened in a few breaths. He looked at Liang Kun, the Minister of Punishment, and asked: "Servant Liang, in terms of time, Dou County Magistrate and Qutu County Magistrate still have plenty of time to come to the end." Judgment, why did you go to the county government to take over the case within the two-day deadline?"
"Xu Guogong believed that Magistrate Dou's treatment was unfair and favored King Wei, so he filed a complaint with the Ministry of Punishment. Our Ministry of Punishment analyzed the case and felt that there were problems with Magistrate Dou's trial, so we took over the case." Liang Kun felt uneasy Well, the development of the situation has exceeded expectations. If the emperor pursues it, Yu Shiji may be fine, but he may be a little unhappy.
"This is an ultimatum issued by the Minister of Internal Affairs to the Ministry of Punishment. The Minister of Menxia Province, Pei, did not read the words and stamp the seal. Su Pushe of the Minister of Finance and Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs did not know about this and did not agree with you. However, Minister Liang relied solely on Xu Guogong With just one sentence and a private order issued by Minister Yu, he went to the county government to seize the jurisdiction of the case." Zhang Heng saw Liang Kun's eyes flickering and his expression uneasy, so he pressed further: "Even death row prisoners can defend themselves and testify themselves. Opportunity, but Mr. Liang, you didn't even let Magistrate Dou write the verdict. Why do you think that Magistrate Dou was unfair and favored King Wei? As one of the top law enforcers in the Sui Dynasty, don't you know how to handle the case? Process? Don’t you know that law enforcement is most afraid of following what others say? With your attitude, how can you handle every case fairly?"
Yang Ji, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but smile and said: "Su Pushe and Li Shangshu are urging me hard, but Shilang Liang doesn't have enough time!"
"That's right!" Liang Kun nodded fiercely. By the time he realized something was wrong and wanted to change his words, it was already too late; he was stunned for a moment and his mind went blank.
"Ha ha!"
"Ha ha!"
Everyone was amused by him.
Yang Guang's eyes were even colder. Su Wei and Li Yuantong didn't know that Liang Kun was going to take over the case, so how could they urge him? This is obviously because he has a guilty conscience and has no master.
"Su Pushe and Li Shangshu pressed hard. As a subordinate, Liang Shilang couldn't help it, so he ignored the process and details, so it's understandable!" Zhang Heng joked and asked: "But I don't know what Liang Shilang thinks. How could Magistrate Dou and the others be unreasonable?"
Liang Kun gritted his teeth and said, "For this, let Mr. Xu Guogong explain himself."
Zhang Heng's eyes turned to Yu Wenshu's face again, and he cupped his hands and said, "Please, Duke Xu, speak freely!"
Yuwenshu returned the gift and said sternly: "Although I, Yuwenshu, am not as outstanding as King Wei, I have served for decades in the Sui Dynasty. I have no extraordinary achievements, but I also have some hard work. Naturally, I cannot let anyone bully me. Xiao'er He was burned blind and mute, his eldest son was severely beaten for no reason, yet the government wants to protect the criminals, how unfair is this?"
Dou Qing couldn't bear it and said: "I have a clear conscience. May I ask Duke Xu, where is my injustice?"
Yu Wenshu pointed at Yang Ji: "King Wei obviously robbed the child's things first, which made the child draw his sword in anger. Why did you ignore this most important link? Is it because King Wei is a prince?"
Dou Qing laughed angrily: "The reason was that Yuwen Saburo provoked him first and forced three outstanding warriors to serve as your Yuwen family's slaves. Your actual slaves also admitted this reason. They all signed and signed it. Does Xu Guogong also deny it? ?"
"It's obvious that they were tortured to extract a confession, so they were forced to confess according to your wishes." Yu Wenshu handed over to Yang Guangyi: "Please allow the saint to allow the old minister to enter the palace to testify."
"Yes!" Yang Guang nodded and said loudly: "This case will be presided over by Zhang Yushi. You can ask him about everything. I will not object to whatever decision he makes."
"Here!" Everyone responded in unison.
After a while, more than a dozen Yuwen family slaves were brought in. They opened their clothes according to Yuwen Shu's instructions, revealing their scarred chests, indicating that they had been tortured to extract confessions in the county government.
Dou Qing smiled coldly: "In order to overturn your confession, you even harmed yourself and put the blame on me. It's so shameless. It's a pity that Xu Guogong doesn't know the law or how to try the case, so your insidious move will not succeed! "
Seeing that Dou Qing was not afraid, Yu Wenshu thought that Dou Qing was trying to force him out, so he sneered and said nothing. His son had used this method before, and he had tried it time and time again. How could he not succeed?
"To know whether a confession has been forced, in fact, as long as you interrogate them separately and then compare their confessions, you can infer who is lying from the details." Zhang Heng said to Yuwenshu: "This method is because officials suffer from perjurers. The method I came up with. If it is determined that someone has falsely accused an official by self-mutilation, the lightest punishment will be a slap in the face, and the most severe will be death! If the circumstances are more serious, kill the person and demote the family member to an official slave! And the person behind the scenes is the one who is behind the scenes. , will also be punished by 20%. For example, if the seventeen domestic slaves of Xu Guogong are all perjurers who committed suicide and falsely accused the Dou County Magistrate, then each of them will be punished with fifty big boards, and Xu Guogong will be punished with one hundred and seventy big boards. plate."
Yuwenshu was immediately confused!
In order to overturn his previous confession, he used the method of "self-mutilation" to frame Dou Qing, but he did not arrange many details properly. Once they were interrogated separately, there would inevitably be self-contradictory dilemmas.
If so, not only would he himself be severely beaten and become a joke in the house, but the case would also be over.
"Huh huh huh!" Yang Ji nodded while holding his chin and sneered: "Xu Guogong, your low-end methods are too old-fashioned. We dandies have been ruined for a long time. The reason why your son It’s not that this outdated method is effective, it’s that the officials are afraid of you and don’t dare to treat your son, so one by one they follow the donkey’s path and find an excuse for themselves to step down.”
"It must have been your two bastard sons who taught you, right? I think your son was worried that you would find out the secret and that he would never be able to fool you again. So they didn't tell you the most important part of the confession. What’s even more funny is that you actually took it seriously. Not only did you copy it, you also blackmailed it into the palace. I really don’t know what to say about you.”
"Haha!" It caused another burst of laughter!
"Xu Guogong, let me tell you!" Yang Ji continued: "The criminals and the government are in opposition and contradictory. In the process of struggle, both hands make progress! Whenever the criminal has any new criminal methods, the government, which represents justice, will soon think of it. Effective methods to prevent crime, and even many laws can be derived based on a certain case. Therefore, the biggest contribution of criminals is to promote the perfection of the law with their criminal behavior and the consequences they deserve. To prevent more similar cases from happening. Don’t even think that your current criminal methods will still be useful in a few years. If you stick to the old rules and have no ideas to advance with the times, even corruption will be low-end.”
There was a sudden silence in the hall.
Although Yang Ji's statement is a bit ridiculous, if you think about it carefully, it is indeed the truth. The existence of criminals and the rapid changes in criminal methods have also indirectly promoted the improvement of the law.
Zhang Heng shoulders the mission of revising the law. After hearing what Yang Ji said, he couldn't help but ask: "King Wei, if I, the Sui Dynasty, want to further improve the law, what is the fastest way?"
"What educated high-level criminals are best at is exploiting loopholes in the law. It is the loopholes in the law that allow them to evade the punishment of the law again and again. You know clearly that they are guilty, but there is no law to follow, so If you want to perfect the law in the shortest time, you can find dozens or hundreds of smart criminals and let them find loopholes in the law." Yang Ji glanced at Zhang Heng and said, "Don't underestimate them, Zhang Yushi. They are even more proficient in the law than the officials of the Ministry of Punishment, otherwise, they would not have taken advantage of the loopholes in the law and been able to get away with it for a long time."
Yang Ji introduced these words in preparation for Wang Shichong. If he could apply his shrewd eloquence and legal knowledge on the right path, it would definitely be beneficial to the Sui Dynasty.
"Taught!" Zhang Heng raised his hand. What Yang Ji said was easy to understand. However, no one had ever proposed using criminals to help improve the law before, so no one thought about it. But Zhang Heng, who is proficient in the law, When the imperial censor heard this, he felt suddenly enlightened.
Thinking about it carefully, this method of cooperation between officials and bandits was indeed a shortcut to practicing law, and it also gave him a direction to practice law. The role of highly intelligent criminals in the process of cultivating laws is definitely greater than that of scholars who only study rote books and make assumptions out of thin air.
At this time, Yu Wenshu couldn't care less about everyone's ridicule. Although his face was calm, he was already panicking in his heart. He never imagined that his method of framing people would be so ridiculous and unreliable in the eyes of Yang Ji, Zhang Heng, Dou Qing and others. While Yang Ji was with Zhang Heng, he kept winking at Liang Kun, hoping that he would come out and say a few words. He would not be allowed to stand alone here, and Zhang Heng would not be allowed to separate his slaves for questioning.
Liang Kun was also speechless. This method of separate interrogation had actually been implemented for many years. He did not expect that Yu Wenshu would use this outdated method in order to frame Dou Qing. If they are interrogated separately at this time, Yuwenshu's clumsy plan will definitely be exposed to everyone. By then, everyone will know that Yuwenshu is unreasonable, and people will inherently feel that the fault of this case lies with Yuwen Zhiji. Otherwise, Yuwenshu will be blamed again. Why do you need to adopt this unfounded method with a guilty conscience?
Dou Qing felt more confident when he saw Yu Wenshu winking at Liang Kun frequently, but Liang Kun turned a blind eye. He bowed to Zhang Heng and said, "Zhang Yushi, I have not only oral statements from both sides, but also many witnesses and physical evidence." , many witnesses are waiting outside the palace, if Zhang Yushi needs it, I can let them all come in to make statements."
Yu Wenshu's face turned red and white, and he was worried. If Zhang Heng separated his slaves for interrogation, everything would be exposed. Under such circumstances, let alone saying that he is not being reasonable, even if he is being reasonable, it will be somewhat weakened by his own operations and this trial.
The ministers who can participate in the court meeting are all the top smart people in the world. They have been watching with cold eyes until now. How could they not know that Yu Wenshu is in a dilemma?
Through this brief confrontation, they knew that Yu Wenshu was making trouble unreasonably. If he used his connections and underhanded methods to put pressure on ordinary ministers, he might be able to achieve a certain effect. After all, he is a person with meritorious service. , the emperor would naturally be biased towards him, but Yang Ji, who was confronting him, was not an easy man either.
Yang Ji's loyalty to the emperor and his achievements were much stronger than that of Yu Wenshu, so the emperor maintained a neutral attitude when facing the dispute between the two "red men". From the current point of view, Yu Wenshu is clearly the The wrong party, without the emperor's favor, now wants to win Yang Ji, it is almost as difficult as climbing to the sky.
"King Wei!" Zhang Heng bowed to Yang Ji and asked, "So far, you haven't said what you took away from Yuwen Zhiji, and this thing is also the reason why Yuwen Zhiji drew his sword, but I don't know what it is. What?"
In an instant, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
This is also the question that everyone is most concerned about. After all, no matter how stupid Yuwen Zhiji is, he will not kill the prince with his sword for money and precious treasures. From this, it can be seen that what Yang Ji snatches is definitely not wealth or unparalleled treasures, but something more. Something shocking and anticipated.
Even Yang Guang couldn't help but look forward to it. He knew that Yang Ji had a lot of money. Their mother and son's earning ability was not only unique, but also rare in the world. Therefore, he never worried about Yang Ji's corruption because he had so much money. After reaching this point, there is no need for corruption anymore.
As for Yuwenshu, as Zhang Heng asked this question, not to mention Yuwenshu, the person involved, became uneasy, but also Yu Shiji and Liang Kun, who were involved in the case, also became nervous.
This is something closely related to their career!
