Just after noon the next day, Yang Yinjiang came and brought news that shocked Yang Ming.
Yes, shocked. Yang Ming was rarely shocked.
Li Dewu turned out to be dead.
He hung himself from the beams of his house.
History was rewritten once again, and Pei Ju no longer had to worry about his daughter marrying a poor man.
If Yang Yinjiang hadn't come to tell him, Yang Ming would not have known about it, because Li Dewu was too ordinary, so ordinary that he would die and no one would care.
If he hadn't fallen in love with Pei Shuying, Yang Yinjiang wouldn't even have known about this person.
The reason why Yang Yinjiang knew about Li Dewu's death was because many descendants of the Yang family in Hongnong worked in Chang'an County and Wannian County government offices.
Daxing City takes Zhuque Street as its central axis, with Chang'an County to the west and Wannian County to the east.
Wasn't Li Jing the hero of Chang'an County because of Yang Su's recommendation?
Li Dewu's house in Daxing, which belongs to Chang'an County, is in Guang'enfang in the south, not far from the West Market. The house is shabby and small.
In any case, he was born in Longxi after all, so the Chang'an County government office also recorded the eight classics in the eucalyptus. If it were an ordinary citizen, the county government office might not be willing to waste that little ink.
What kind of person hangs himself? People who have lost confidence in life and can't think about it.
And Li Dewu is about to catch the legitimate daughter of Shi Ling in Tangtang. How can he be willing to die?
I heard that Pei Shuying had gone to the Chang'an County Government and determined that Li Dewu was murdered, and urged the county captain to get to the bottom of it.
Instead of looking at the monk's face and looking at the Buddha's face, the county government, which had always ended up hastily committing suicide, had to redouble its manpower and conduct a thorough investigation.
Yang Ming also tended to believe that Li Dewu was killed. He even directly suspected that his father Yang Guang sent someone to do it.
Thinking about it now, Pei Ju's complaint in front of his father yesterday might actually be a hint.
At that time, Yang Ming even pretended to be confused and comforted Pei Ju, saying that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings and should not be forced, but his father was very strange and had no words at that time.
Even before leaving, he unexpectedly asked Yang Ming the name of the person who pursued Pei Shuying.
These two things! It's so gloomy.
Dad is really discerning and should have seen through Pei Ju's thoughts on the spot. And now he wants to tie Pei Ju to his own boat, so he simply kills Li Dewu and gives Pei Ju a favor.
Pei Ju definitely couldn't do it himself. If his daughter knew about it in the future, she would definitely hate him, so he thought of using other people's hands to achieve his own goals.
Poor Li Dewu, he just did this and became a ghost.
Absolutely no, you shouldn't go after the elder's daughter, and you shouldn't look at the group of people who go to court every day in the Sui Dynasty, who doesn't have tens of thousands of lives in their hands.
When Yang Jian pursued Pei Shuying, Yang Lihua intervened. Who are you?
This is the result of overestimating your own abilities.
Yang Ming asked people to prepare dinner and left Yang Yinjiang to eat at home. During this period, he asked:
"Don't you have a good relationship with her? How is she now?"
Yang Yinjiang said: "I went to the Pei Mansion to look for her, but I didn't see anyone. She probably went to the Chang'an County Government Office. But based on my understanding of her, I shouldn't be too sad because she once mentioned it to me. Once, if there is too much resistance at home, there should be no consequences for her and Li Dewu."
….
Oh...Looking at it this way, Pei Shuying and Li Dewu have not yet entered the passionate love period, and their relationship should still be in its infancy.
Pei Ju's timing of pinching was quite accurate. This was the perfect time to kill someone.
"Yang Ming, do you feel that something is wrong with the recent limelight?" Seeing that Yang Ming only picked up the plate in front of her, Yang Yinjiang simply moved the plate to him.
Yang Ming put down Kuai Zi embarrassedly and said, "What's wrong?"
Yang Yinjiang smiled strangely and said, "Just pretend."
Okay, stop pretending, let me show my cards, my brother will be the crown prince’s third son in two months.
Yang Ming
He smiled and said, "I really don't understand what you mean. Tell me."
Yang Yinjiang curled her lips in dissatisfaction and lowered her voice: "The prince is no different from house arrest now. Gao Jiong, his biggest helper, has also been dismissed from office, and your father has been staying in the capital for so long. Haven't you seen that? Any sign?"
Yang Ming picked up the kuaizi again and said with a smile: "Eat vegetables."
Yang Yinjiang pursed her lips and smiled: "Congratulations in advance."
The two of them understood each other tacitly, and there was no need to make their words too clear.
The next step was to talk about Gao Yue. Yang Yinjiang didn't get any useful information from Yang Su and Yang Yue in the past few days, and she couldn't even find out who the two of them had met some time ago.
It's normal to think about it. The slaves who can serve these two people are all good people. They know what they want to say to Yang Yinjiang, and it's only right that they can't find out.
And Yang Yinjiang helped Yang Ming inquire about this matter, which is not considered cheating. After all, the two families are now die-hard allies. Gao Yue's secrets are definitely not enough to affect the relationship between the two families, and Yang Yinjiang herself is not interested in this matter. Also very curious.
During today's meal, Yang Yinjiang was very cheerful from beginning to end, chattering non-stop. Perhaps it was because Yang Ming was about to change his appearance, from the prince's legitimate son to the prince's legitimate son.
There is actually a huge difference between these two identity changes. One is the son of the future emperor, and the other is the son of the prince. How can these be the same?
A few days later, when Chen Shuyi still couldn't come back, Yang Ming decided to go to Jinyang Tower to have a look.
This girl really can't be let out. Once she gets out, she won't be able to come back.
After passing the front building and entering the inner garden, Yang Ming saw a few familiar faces, including Cui Wei, Yang Yinjiang's bodyguard.
Why is she here?
"Which room is Miss Yang in?" Yang Ming stepped forward and asked.
Cui Wei replied: "Go back to your highness, in the east wing upstairs."
After going upstairs, Yang Ming knocked politely and heard Yang Yinjiang's voice from inside the door: "Who?"
"Me," Yang Ming said.
With a creak, the door opened. Yang Yinjiang smiled and invited Yang Ming in: "What a coincidence, I just arrived not long ago."
Surprisingly, besides Yang Yinjiang, there was another person in the room, Pei Shuying.
Pei Shuying doesn't seem to be in very good condition right now, but it's not bad either. She's a little sad but not very sad either.
Well, Yang Ming is not very good at describing her state, and is short of words...
"Hello, Miss Pei," Yang Ming took the initiative to chat, and then sat down on the futon on one side.
Pei Shuying forced a smile: "I met His Highness again."
After the three of them sat down, Yang Yinjiang deliberately asked Yang Ming the topic she had just asked again, in order to let Yang Ming know what they were talking about.
….
"So, the county government hasn't found any clues for so long?"
Pei Shuying glanced at Yang Ming first, and then nodded: "I have no clue. The two servants in Li Dewu's house are fine, and there are no signs of the door lock being picked open. Everything seems like he really It’s like hanging yourself.”
How big a deal is this? Dad still lacks this number of people? Ma Laoliu could do it with just one pack of cigarettes.
Yang Ming pretended to be unaware and asked in surprise: "Did something happen to Li Dewu?"
Hearing this, Yang Yinjiang couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said, "Stop pretending, Ayun knows that you know about this, and I didn't hide it from her."
Didn't you tell me earlier? How embarrassing is this? Yang Ming asked curiously: "Who is Ayun?"
"My maiden name," Pei Shuying said calmly.
"Oh..." Yang Ming nodded: "People cannot be resurrected after death. Miss Pei must not be too sad and cherish yourself."
Pei Shuying let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile: "I can't say how sad I am. I just feel that it's a pity for Dewu. He was going to participate in the tribute examination next year. There are only three recommended places in Longxi, and his clan had a hard time getting them for him. To a."
Pull it down, the branch of Longxi Branch, what skills can you get in Longxi County?
A quota? Do you really think that Li Yuan’s relatives are vegetarians?
You begged your father to get it for him, right?
Besides, what if he passes the exam? At most, he is just a petty official like Fang Xuanling. After all, Fang Xuanling has a father who worked in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. What does Li Dewu have?
In this era, there were no small town writers, only families with aristocratic connections.
"In this case, it's really a pity for Brother Li," Yang Ming said, "I feel the same way."
At this time, Pei Shuying's sudden words made the smile on Yang Yinjiang's face freeze instantly.
"A few days ago, my grandfather once told me that if the King of Hedong was not engaged, he would find me a concubine. What do you think of this sentence?" Pei Shuying stared at Yang Ming. .
Pei Ju's visit to Prince Jin's Mansion that day was not hidden from her daughter. He said this to Pei Shuying as soon as he came back. Therefore, Pei Shuying thought that it was Yang Ming who said something to her grandpa that made him feel guilty. this statement.
Pei Shuying has a straightforward personality and has no taboos about saying anything, so she actually raised a topic in front of Yang Yinjiang that embarrassed all three of them.
Yang Ming almost immediately guessed why Pei Ju said these words to his daughter.
First of all, Pei Ju had already hinted to Yang Guang, knowing that Yang Guang would solve the problem of Li Dewu for him. Furthermore, by using himself as an example, he was actually brainwashing his daughter, implying to Pei Shuying that with your background, you can be the princess of the county. Yes, so when looking for a partner in the future, you have to look for someone at Yang Ming’s level.
It was originally a good intention to guide her daughter in the right direction of love, but Pei Shuying actually said it to her face.
This girl is also very straight-tempered. How could someone like Pei Ju, who is so evil-minded, have such a straightforward daughter?
[To tell you the truth, I have been using @看书 to catch up on updates recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on both Android and Apple. 】
What can Yang Ming say? I could only say: "I am so lucky..."
Girls, you have to take care of other people's face.
Yang Yinjiang on the side said quickly: "Pei Gong is just a joke. Yang Ming is already engaged. This is a fact that no one can change."
Pei Shuying glanced at Yang Yinjiang strangely and thought, let me tell him, why are you anxious? I won't compete with you.
However, she also knew very well that in the near future, Yang Ming's status would be greatly enhanced by the succession of King Jin as Crown Prince.
However, among the three legitimate sons of King Jin, only Yang Ming did not have a concubine. Although there was a marriage contract, it was only a verbal promise from the Queen, and it was entirely possible to change it if there were changes.
For example: Dugu Feng'er suddenly died suddenly.
