"Since he is a villain, what's the use of guarding against him? Besides, Brother Yang's situation here is not the fault of a mere villain?" Faced with Yang Bin's reminder, Wang Zhang didn't seem to care.
"You are saying something!" Yang Bin raised his finger and pointed outside, with infinite sarcasm in his tone: "If these words really reach the emperor's ears..."
Before Yang Bin finished speaking, Wang Zhang smiled softly: "Maybe there will be another cell for my king in this prison!"
The two looked at each other, and after a brief silence, Yang Bin broke the silence with a low tone: "Why did the emperor send you here?"
After encountering the great changes, Yang Bin did not seem to sink. The dozens of days of imprisonment did not make his mind rusty. The moment he saw Wang Zhang, he realized something.
"Your Majesty asked me to interrogate you for your crimes!" Wang Zhang said calmly.
Hearing this, Yang Bin sat up straight, his voice was still hoarse, but his face actually looked relaxed: "I have been in prison for a long time, but this dark cell has been difficult, and it is time to be released. Wang Jingchong, who was waiting for me, knitted something for me. What crime?"
Wang Zhang took out an album from his sleeve, handed it to Yang Bin and said: "Treason and other unpardonable crimes."
Hearing this, Yang Yan "laughed dumbly", took the album and started browsing it, his expression was calm, but slowly, his eyes couldn't help but dim, "This thief has exhausted all his tricks!"
"How did the DPRK react when Yang was imprisoned?" Yang Bin asked.
"It was turbulent at first, but then it became calm." Wang Zhang's answer made Yang Bin a little disappointed.
"Really?" The smile turned sad. Yang Bin threw the crime on the ground, looked up at Wang Zhang, and said sincerely: "I never thought about today, but as for this, I can't help but feel sad. He actually So eager!"
Wang Zhang also knows who the "him" in Yang Bin's mouth refers to. Looking at his old friend, his desolate appearance made people sigh, and he sighed and said: "Why bother? Although your Majesty is young, his majesty and martial appearance, his image as a wise master, and his mind are not intolerable. If you can early Let go of your grudges, why is this so important?"
Yang Bin shook his head and sneered: "The emperor is indeed very tolerant, but who is it? He is the so-called 'talent' who he has personally promoted in the past two years! For me and other veterans of the previous dynasty, I am afraid that they will be regarded as The thorn in your side, get rid of it quickly!”
At this point, probably because his emotions were over, Yang Bin's expression finally changed, and he once again mentioned Liu Chengxun, whom he regretted: "If His Royal Highness the King of Wei was still here, this would never happen. The emperor has a cold heart, and as far as we are concerned, this is not the case. You’re not friendly, as evidenced by my end!”
After hearing what he said, Wang Zhang couldn't help but frown. After Yang Bin calmed down, he said: "Brother Yang's words are biased. Although His Highness the King of Wei is generous and kind, at this time of troubled times, , surrounded by a pack of wolves, fighting for supremacy in the world, no matter how pure and kind you are, it is not as powerful as your machinations! Your Majesty’s ability, vision, and mind are all worthy of his position, and he is worthy of being a hero!"
"Is this the reason why you are gradually getting closer to the emperor?" Yang Bin suddenly asked Wang Zhang.
Without any hesitation, Wang Zhang nodded in acquiescence!
Waving his hand, Yang Bin maintained the stubborn arrogance on his face since he became the Prime Minister, and said: "In this cell, I don't need to argue with you about this matter..."
After a pause, Yang Bin's tone was still mocking and asked: "Do you know how the emperor plans to deal with me, a criminal? Since he sent you here, he must have given you a secret plan!"
Looking at Yang Bin, Wang Zhang said slowly: "Your Majesty has said that Yang Bin is a hero of the Han Dynasty and will not conspire against him!"
There was a moment of surprise, and I looked at Wang Zhang again. I saw something in his eyes, and nodded: "I understand!"
He lowered his head, picked up the album that he had thrown on the ground, and carefully read the "charges" on it, and said: "There is no need to embarrass Brother Wang. Except for treason, my department will answer the listed charges." Yes, confess!"
Yang Bin's straightforward reaction made Wang Zhang silent again. He was not usually a talkative person, and in this situation, he didn't know what to say.
"I just hope that my brother can answer my question!" Yang Bin said.
"Please speak!" Wang Zhang nodded. Qiqi Chinese website
"Yang is doomed! I am not afraid of death, I only care about my family. If the emperor really appreciates my contribution to the founding of the country and will not be implicated, he will ask Brother Wang to take care of my three nephews after my death. I have three sons, and the eldest son has always been An Fen, the third son is mediocre, I won't worry about it. Only the second son Tingwei, if he does something unworthy, don't need protection, lest he harm the family!"
Yang Bing opened up about his entrustment, and for the first time he showed reluctance, but was quickly hidden, and continued: "If the emperor wants to kill my Yang family, then Brother Wang must not beg for mercy, but beg for mercy and protect yourself! "
Hearing Yang Bin's explanation, Wang Zhang felt sad and moved. He opened his mouth and only let out a few heavy coughs. After a while, it turned into a short sigh: "I agree!"
Slowly turning around and sitting cross-legged on the straw mat, Yang Bin seemed to have lost all his energy and energy. He hunched his body and said in a bleak tone: "Brother Yang, go ahead. It's always hard for villains to guard against this sin like mine." Sir, it’s not suitable for long conversations, don’t follow the truth!”
...
Before Wang Zhang was reinstated, Liu Chengyou had already received a small report from Wang Jingchong, and was somewhat dissatisfied with him for not doing his job properly. But listening to his slanderous remarks about Wang Zhang, Liu Chengyou failed to suppress his anger.
This Wang Jingchong is a good knife, but obviously, if you don't control it, you can easily forget about it.
Liu Chengyou changed the topic abruptly and asked with an indifferent expression: "When we were in Xingzhou, Yang Bin wrote a handwritten letter to the King of Julu County to induce him to raise troops and cause rebellion. Has the person who sent the letter been found?"
The emperor's eyes were clearly as calm as water, but to Wang Jingchong at this moment, they were so terrifying, like thorns piercing his back. When Liu Chengyou mentioned the messenger, Wang Jingchong was horrified to the extreme. However, his excellent psychological quality allowed him to steady his rapidly beating heart. His voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, and he carefully replied: "Return to your Majesty, my lord." Someone has been sent to investigate, and Wude is also searching for him, so I think there will be results soon!"
His eyes lingered on Wang Jingchong, observing his nervous reaction. After he became more and more embarrassed, Liu Chengyou said calmly: "It's just a little person. It's insignificant. If you can't find it, that's it!"
"Yes!" Wang Jingchong's mind gradually stabilized, and he bowed and obeyed.
The moment he buried his head, cold sweat could not help but seep out from his forehead. Wang Jingchong had already realized that the tricks he had used in Xingzhou had not been hidden from the emperor. Of course, he was not stupid enough to think that he could completely hide it from Liu Chengyou. There is a word called knowing well, but how much he concealed was a very important question. And the emperor's current reaction made Wang Jingchong feel unsure.
Ignoring Wang Jingchong's complicated psychological activities, Liu Chengyou continued to say in a calm tone: "On the Yang Fang case, you worked hard and hard, and I saw it all. If you have merit, you will be rewarded!"
Liu Chengyou's words clearly left much to be desired, but by saying this, the effect was achieved. It can be seen from Wang Jingchong's actions of expressing gratitude that he clearly understood the emperor's warning.
After the emperor's beating, Wang Jingchong could not help but staggering when he stepped out of the hall. The scene in the hall made him feel like he was facing an abyss.
Wang Zhang, who happened to be in the palace for an audience, had no intention of going up to say hello or scold him. After leaving the palace in a hurry, he planned to return home and make the messenger mentioned by Liu Chengyou disappear completely. Judging from the emperor's attitude, there is no need for him to be used for other purposes, and keeping him would be a disaster...
When he met Wang Zhang in the palace and received his return, Liu Chengyou expressed surprise. It didn't take long for Yang Bin's interrogation to come to fruition.
"Plead guilty and submit to the law! Is this Yang Bin's attitude?" Liu Chengyou pondered Wang Zhang's report.
"I asked Yang Bin in a written statement, and he confessed to the listed crimes, only to be dealt with by your majesty!" Wang Zhang replied solemnly.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and opened the confession letter submitted by Wang Zhang. After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly felt relieved. Liu Chengyou realized that he had underestimated Yang Bin after all.
He looked in the direction of the imperial prison, and through the many palace gates, he seemed to be able to see the back of the old man who was alone in the cell.
"How should I deal with it?" Liu Chengyou seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be asking.
Wang Zhang's lips twitched, his words of pleading stuck in his throat. Thinking of Yang Bin's entrustment, he just raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, Fu Wei!"
He stood up and walked around the hall with his hands behind his back. The slow pace revealed a little bit of Liu Chengyou's hesitation. Liu Chengyou still couldn't make up his mind whether to kill Yang Bin or not.
Standing in front of the palace gate, after deliberation for a long time, Liu Chengyou looked at the clear blue sky outside and said softly: "Depose Yang Bin as a commoner, drift for three thousand miles, no longer employed, and never return to the court! You can declare it to me on my behalf." Sin, calm the hearts of the courtiers, this matter ends here!"
After hearing Liu Chengyou's decision, Wang Zhang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He looked at Liu Chengyou's back and bowed, "Yes!"
