Chapter 1124 Yu Yun Incident (Part 2)
Li Yuanji looked incredibly at the stack of confessions in front of him. He originally captured his son just to revenge Yu Yun, and was preparing to give him a charge of having an affair with the enemy country. Unexpectedly, after some torture, Yu Weiming actually admitted that his father had an affair with the Northern Sui Dynasty. Now it was not the Northern Sui Dynasty, but an affair with the Zhou Dynasty. It was simply searching for something without any effort. Li Yuanji was ecstatic.
He immediately ordered: "Go and invite Mr. Cui."
The guard ran away, and Li Yuanji frowned and asked again: "This confession is not a reproach!"
"Reporting to your highness, it's definitely not a mistake. Bei Zhi has interrogated at least a few hundred people. It's clear whether it's a mistake. Besides, the confession also contains the name of Gao Jin, a military officer of the Chang'an Intelligence Agency, and it's Yu Yun's nephew. This kind of thing cannot be made up."
"Then where is this Gao Jin now? Did he say that?" Li Yuanji asked with his fingers pointing at the confession.
"He said he was originally at Qingyun Restaurant. He sent letters to his father several times, but since Qingyun Restaurant was burned, he didn't know where Gao Jin was going, but his father Yu Yun should know."
Li Yuanji looked at the confession carefully again and couldn't help but smile hysterically, "Yu Yun, this time you fell into my hands. I want you to live a life worse than death!"
At this time, Cui Wenxiang walked in quickly and said with a smile: "It's so late, is there any urgent matters for your Highness to ask me?"
"I'll tell you a joke to the gentleman. The Qingyun winery we are going to frame. Guess what, it is really the place where the Chang'an Intelligence Agency is heard!" Li Yuanji sneered.
Cui Wenxiang was stunned, "Your Highness, is it really such a coincidence?"
"Look at this!"
Li Yuanji handed Yu Weiming's confession to Cui Wenxiang. Of course, Cui Wenxiang knew that Yu Weiming was arrested, and he planned the arrest plan. He looked carefully at the confession and couldn't help but be surprised and happy, "Your Highness, it's really a coincidence!"
"Actually, I don't think it's strange. I know that many ministers secretly contacted Zhang Xuan and thought they could leave a way out for themselves, but Yu Yun was actually Gao Jin, the uncle of the Chang'an Intelligence Agency. This is the biggest surprise. We can take this opportunity to dig out the cancer of the Chang'an Intelligence Agency."
"Your Highness is right, this is indeed a good opportunity!"
"Then the gentleman said what should I do now?"
Cui Wenxiang was able to become Wang Shichong's prime minister at a young age. He was indeed very talented and good at strategy, but he was despicable and cruel, and his strategies were basically vicious.
Cui Wenxiang pondered for a moment and asked Qian Huaiying: "Have the Yu family been to prison?"
"I heard that the butler came to inquire about the news and gave me ten taels of gold to take care of Yu Weiming. My subordinates dared not accept it, so they reported it to me."
"Have Yu Yun been here?"
"No, I heard from the butler that he doesn't seem to be at home."
Cui Wenxiang nodded and said to Li Yuanji: "Yu Yun has not come to save his son in person, which means he is not aware of it. Your Highness wants to act quickly and immediately send someone to copy Yu Yun's study. His study must contain Zhang Xuan's letters and clues from the Chang'an Intelligence Agency. I am worried that once Yu Yun gets the news, he will destroy the evidence immediately, and send someone to inform the Chang'an Intelligence Agency to evacuate. When he falls, he will complain to the emperor, saying that Your Highness has scolded his son for being rebellious."
Cui Wenxiang turned around and asked Qian Huaiying again, "I'm right!"
Qian Huaiying nodded timidly, "That boy is very tough. I have cut his ears and two fingers, but he just didn't say it. Later, when I used a sharp knife to open his egg, he finally admitted it."
Cui Wenxiang said to Li Yuanji again: "Does Your Highness understand? Yu Yun is a Guanlong nobleman. If Your Highness cannot catch his evidence and hurt his son, how could Yu Yun give up? The Guanlong nobleman would not agree. Only by catching Yu Yun's evidence first will the Guanlong nobleman have nothing to say."
Li Yuanji himself is a bold and reckless person. With Cui Wenxiang's poisonous plan, he made him even more unscrupulous and ignoring the consequences. He immediately said to Qian Huaiying: "Immediately order a thousand soldiers, and I want to search Yu Yun's mansion in person!"
In the night, Yu Yun's carriage slowly stopped in front of the mansion. He had just returned from the business work of Chencang County. He was exhausted for a day and was exhausted.
As soon as Yu Yun got off the carriage, the butler ran out and said anxiously: "Master, something happened to your son."
Yu Yun's heart was thrilled, "What's wrong?"
"The young master was captured by Xuanwu Jingwei."
Yu Yun was so scared that he almost stopped beating. He grabbed the butler's arm and asked anxiously: "What the hell is going on?"
"Master, it was Mr. Lu, the Imperial College, who sent someone to report it, but Mr. Lu was not aware of it in detail. No one at home made the decision. The wife asked the villain to inquire about the situation. The villain found out some news. The young master drank with more than a dozen classmates at the restaurant at noon today. It seemed that one of them was a spy from the Zhou Dynasty. Xuanwu Jingwei captured everyone, and the young master was arrested together."
Yu Yun was not so easy to be fooled. He immediately realized that there was a problem here. How could the Tai students in the Imperial College be spies of the Zhou Dynasty? I am afraid that this is just an excuse to arrest people. The only special one among the group of Tai students is their son. Their real goal should be to capture Weiming.
Yu Yun remembered the Qingyun Restaurant incident again. Li Yuanji was silent, but how could he let him go? He became anxious. He didn't have time to enter the house and immediately sat back on the carriage and said, "Go to the palace, I want to meet the saint!"
The prince was not in the capital, and the King of Qin went to Shangjun to train troops again. Now, no one except the emperor could save his son.
Just as more than a dozen people left Yu Yun's carriage, he heard a rapid sound of horse hooves from a distance, and it seemed that countless cavalry were rushing towards him. Yu Yun's face turned pale, and he knew something was wrong.
Three hundred murderous cavalry surrounded Yu Yun's carriage and more than a dozen master generals. Thousands of Xuanwu Jinggu soldiers ran behind him, surrounding Yu Yun's mansion. At this time, Li Yuanji appeared in front of Yu Yun's carriage on a horse.
"Yu Yun, my father treats you very well. Why do you want to betray your father and betray the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yuanji asked sternly.
"Your Highness, your Highness, don't swear at others!"
"I'm slandering? You know it! I'll ask you, who is Gao Jin?"
Yu Yun was so shocked that his scalp was about to explode. It must be his son's confession. Yu Yun's eyes suddenly turned red. He knew that his son looked weak on the outside but strong on the inside. He didn't know what cruel means Li Yuanji used to force his son to confess.
Yu Yun was extremely angry and pointed at Li Yuanji and said in a trembling voice: "How did you do to my son?"
"I'm still caring about my son until I die. Think about yourself!"
Li Yuanji sneered and ordered: "Search my house!"
Qian Huaiying was waiting for this order, and he waved his hand, "Come with me!"
Hundreds of Xuanwu Jinggu soldiers rushed into Yu Yun's mansion. Qian Huaiying had a clear goal and led dozens of soldiers to force the butler to lead the way with his sword, and rushed straight to Yu Yun's inner study room.
Yu Yun was not worried that Li Yuanji would find clues from the Chang'an Intelligence Agency. Of course, he knew the contact information with Gao Jin, but he did not leave any paper clues. This was also because after Qingyun Restaurant was burned, he was more vigilant and would not leave any evidence that he had a relationship with the Chang'an Intelligence Agency outside.
At this time, Yu Yun suddenly remembered a letter he hid in the inner study. It was a handwritten letter written to him by Zhang Xuan. Of course, he couldn't bear to burn it, so he treasured it.
Yu Yun suddenly felt anxious and said sternly to Li Yuanji: "So quickly to withdraw your soldiers, have you forgotten the Wuchuan blood oath?"
The so-called Wuchuan Blood Oath is when Wuchuan Prefecture was established in the first year of Daye. The core families of the 15 Guanlong nobles swear blood in front of Wuchuan stones. The Guanlong nobles united and in trouble, the other families would never stand by. Among the people participating in the oath, Li Yuan himself was also involved. The Wuchuan Blood Oath was originally targeted at Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. Although Yang Guang killed many Guanlong nobles, the Wuchuan Blood Oath was not activated.
As the conflict between the Dugu family and the Dou family intensified, the Guanlong nobles had been divided, and Wuchuan's blood oath had already been in name only. Today, Yu Yun raised this matter again in desperation, trying to make Li Yuanji take a fright.
But Li Yuanji himself is a bold and arrogant person. He never takes Guanlong nobles seriously, let alone Wuchuan's blood oath had already been in name only, and he caught Yu Yun's handle, how could he retreat at a critical moment?
Li Yuanji sneered: "It seems that we are guilty of being guilty. Let's make a deal! If you are willing to cooperate with me and ask me to enter the Chang'an Intelligence Agency, I will let your son go, and our private revenge will be eliminated. How about it?"
How could Yu Yun get into his trap? He stared at Li Yuanji and gritted his teeth and said, "I don't understand what you are saying? But I want to tell you, if my son has any problems, it will be useless even if your father comes to apologize to me. I will never let you go!"
Li Yuanji's face sank, "Bold! Do you dare to mention my father and want to rebel?"
At this time, Qian Huaiying ran out of the mansion and held up an exquisite jade box in his hand, "Your Highness, I found it!"
When Yu Yun saw the jade box, his eyes slowly closed. He knew that the situation was hopeless and his life might be difficult to save.
Li Yuanji opened the jade box and was immediately ecstatic. One of the letters in the jade box was the handwritten letter written by Zhang Xuan to Yu Yun. He stared at Yu Yun deeply and said with a grin: "Yu Yun, when you rejected me last month, would you think of today?"
Yu Yun said coldly: "I am a craftsman who is a magistrate of the third-rank craftsman. According to the Tang system, the emperor should be punished by the emperor. It is not your turn to humiliate me. I will apologize to the emperor and go to the palace!"
How could Li Yuanji let him go? He winked at his subordinates. A hundred cavalry swung their swords and killed them. A scream suddenly sounded. All the followers, including the coachman, were killed. Li Yuanji ordered: "Take them together with the carriage to the military yamen for interrogation!"
Yu Yun was furious and stared at Li Yuanji like fire, "Li Yuanji, you are so cruel!"
"I will let you see my true ruthlessness later, let you taste what life is worse than death, let you remember the consequences of offending me and take it away!"
Dozens of cavalry surrounded by carriages, and a soldier drove towards the Jingwei Army's yamen in a carriage. Inside the carriage, Yu Yun closed his eyes tightly in pain. He thought of the torture his young son suffered, and his heart was shattered. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that he could not stand the punishment and confessed to the intelligence agency's nest. Once the Chang'an Intelligence Agency was caught in one fell swoop, what would Zhang Xuan treat his family in the future?
Forget it, it’s all death anyway, so it’s better to sacrifice your life for justice! When Yu Yun thought of the insult Li Yuanji was about to be on his way, he couldn’t bear it anymore. He suddenly opened his eyes and sighed, “It’s a pity that I, Yu Yun, can’t see the day when this thief was given the head.”
He pulled out a sharp dagger from his leather boots and stabbed him hard in the heart.
