Chapter 0038 Intensification of Contradiction
Not long after Zhang Xutuo left, Gu Yi hurriedly found Yu Shiji. He could not catch Zhang Xuan and the case could not be tried. He had no choice but to ask Yu Shiji for help.
Unexpectedly, Yu Shiji refused him immediately. Yu Shiji stood in front of the window and said coldly: "This case has nothing to do with me. Don't ask me. Go directly to Yuwen Shu and see his attitude."
Gu Yi cursed in his heart, how could this matter have nothing to do with him? If it had nothing to do with him, how could he take on this case? He just wanted to act a detached attitude and leave him alone.
Gu Yi had no choice but to bow, "I understand, I will go to General Yuwen now!"
He turned around and walked out the door. When he reached the door, Yu Shiji left a sentence, "Luo Shixin's death penalty is beyond doubt."
Gu Yi was confused when he heard this. How could he say this inexplicably? He didn't dare to ask more questions, so he quickly agreed and left Yu Shiji's official room.
Compared to Yu Shiji's transcendent attitude, Yu Wen Shu was extremely anxious. The longer the matter was delayed, the more unfavorable it would be for him. In the study, Yu Wen Shu gave his adviser Xu Yin a wink and asked him to tell him about this matter.
This matter was planned by Xu Yin, so of course he knew what to do next? Xu Yin smiled slightly and said to Gu Yi: "The current situation is also what I expected. Once a criminal enters the Yan Prince's Mansion, it will be difficult to catch him back, but Gu Yu Gong can use this to build momentum."
The bone qi is puzzled, "How do you say this?"
Xu Yin gently stroked the goat's beard and smiled, "The only one who can suppress the King of Yan is the saint. Since the King of Yan refuses to bow his head, he can only use the saint to force him to hand over the criminals. The King of Yan will definitely refuse. Then he has only two choices, either to fight against the imperial power or negotiate a reconciliation with us. I want to know the current affairs as a hero, and he will never lose the position of the crown prince for a small guard."
Yuwen Shu praised, "Mr. Xu can see thoroughly. Although the King of Yan is the eldest grandson, the King of Dai and King Yue are also favored. The reason why King of Yan was appointed as the crown prince was not officially enthroned means that the Emperor was still hesitating to let the King of Dai guard Chang'an and the King of Yue guard Luoyang, which itself had the idea of making them the heirs.
The three kings compete for the legitimate legacy, and the King of Yan will lose the position of the crown prince if he is not careful. I believe that the King of Yan understands his situation very well. He will never resist this trivial matter with the emperor and will definitely compromise with me."
Gu Yi also agreed with Xu Yin's plan and used the subtle relationship between the three kings fighting for the legitimate power to force the King of Yan to submit. He thought about it and said, "Then what should I do?"
Xu Yin smiled faintly, "Isn't this easy? The Bone Minister is doing his job and sent me all the guards from the Yan Prince's Mansion to assist in the investigation that night, including Zhang Xuan, to make a big deal and spread it to the emperor. Maybe the Bone Minister will be famous for not fearing power."
Gu Yi was thinking in his eyes, and he knew what he should do.
Gu Yi said goodbye and left, and then Xu Yin smiled at Yuwen Shu and said, "The young king of Yan is very energetic, I guess he will not compromise."
Yuwen Shu was stunned, "Why did Mr. Yan just now say that King Yan would definitely compromise?"
Xu Yin smiled, "That's just to boost the morale of the Minister of the Bone. Is the general a little tempted to give up when he didn't see him?"
Yuwen Shu nodded, and then he understood Xu Yin's profound meaning, but he had spent a lot of money and could not help but not.
He pondered for a moment and asked with some concern: "What if the King of Yan refused to compromise?"
"Have you not figured it out yet? Whether the King of Yan compromises does not matter. The key is whether the Lord compromises. I think the Lord will understand the general's request through this matter. As long as he does not really want to punish the general, the general will definitely gain something."
"What sir means is that the Lord will interfere in this case?"
Xu Yin laughed meaningfully, "Why did I ask the general to find Yu Shiji? As long as Yu Shiji's uncontrollable greed is involved in this case, the emperor will definitely interfere in this case, and the general's opportunity will come."

Half an hour later, Gu Yi led more than 100 subordinates and soldiers to the gate of the Yan Prince's Mansion. It was dusk at this time. Compared to leaving in shame at noon, Gu Yi obviously had a little more confidence at this time. He shouted sternly: "Public affairs of the Ministry of Justice, please report to the King of Yan quickly!"
The guards at the gate saw that they were not good at coming, so they hurried back to report. After a moment, the general manager Qian Jingzhong greeted him again. He smiled and said, "Oh! Isn't this the Minister of the Bone? It's been a long time since I saw you, which gust of fragrant wind blows you?"
Gu Yi was so angry that he gritted his teeth, "We've seen it at noon!"
"Is that so? Why don't I have any impression of it? Maybe you are not seeing me!"
"I know you all the time when burning you to ashes!"
"How do you talk?"
Qian Jingzhong's face sank, "I seem to have no grudges and grudges with Mr. Bone!"
"Stop talking nonsense. The bloody case of the Ministry of Justice Shentian Temple Pavilion involves fifteen guards of the Yanwang Mansion. This is a list. Please inform them immediately to follow me to the Ministry of Justice for inquiries." Gu Yi handed a list to Qian Jingzhong.
"I'm sorry, His Highness Yan is not here, and none of us can make the decision. Otherwise, how many days will you come again?"
Gu Yi knew that the other party would definitely answer this way, so he had already given up and snorted heavily: "I warn General Manager Qian, this is a serious case of the Ministry of Justice. If the Yan Prince's Mansion refuses to cooperate, then I can only report to the emperor that the responsibility for undermining the court's criminal laws will be borne by the King of Yan."
Qian Jingzhong curled his lips disdainfully, "What a big deal? Isn't it just to ask the guards to go to the Ministry of Justice to ask questions? What's the point of saying it so seriously? I've seen the list. I'll let them report to the Ministry of Justice tomorrow, that's OK!"
Gu Yi was not willing to believe his words. He stared at Qian Jingzhong with sharp eyes and said, "What if I had to take them away today?"
"Then ask Mr. Bone to wait patiently! His Highness King Yan has entered the palace. When he comes back, you can explain it to him clearly. Of course, if Mr. Bone wants to force himself to break into the Prince Yan's Mansion to catch people, please!"
After saying that, Qian Jingzhong turned around and walked into the gate of the palace. Gu Yi was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Of course, he did not dare to break into the palace of Yan, but it was impossible to leave in shame. He turned around and whispered to a doctor from the Ministry of Justice and said, "You can take ten people to wait outside Guangzhai. If King Yan returns to the palace, please inform me immediately!"
"I understand!"
The doctor of the Ministry of Justice led ten Ministry of Justice to run towards Guangzhaimen. Gu Yi ordered everyone to sit quietly in front of the Yan King's Gate. This action alone was enough to cause a sensation in the court.

Just as Gu Yi led a hundred subordinates to sit quietly in front of the Yan Prince's Mansion, Yan Prince Yang Neng had been waiting outside the imperial study room of Wencheng Palace for a long time.
Yang Neng usually discusses with several masters about anything, but today he decided to listen to Zhang Xuan's opinions and take the initiative to attack. At this time, an eunuch walked out and saluted: "Your Highness, the Lord let you in!"
Yang Neng cleaned up his clothes and quickly walked into the imperial study room of the emperor. In the imperial study room, Yang Guang was listening to the censor Pei Yun's investigation of the case of Yang Xuangan's remnants.
Yang Guang issued a strict order, and anyone who colluded with Yang Xuangan rebelled was severely punished. Pei Yun presented the holy wish and had executed or exiled more than 30,000 people in various places over the past few months, including senior officials like Zhao Yuanshu, the Minister of the Siyuan.
Yang Guang looked at the list and some people who were exiled to the Western Regions tried to escape halfway, but were caught by soldiers. The list included poets Wang Zhou and Yu Chuo. Wang Zhou was a poet that Yang Guang loved very much, and Yu Chuo was Yu Shiji's nephew.
This made Yang Guang a little difficult for a moment. At this time, Yang Neng walked into the imperial study room, knelt down and bowed, saying, "Great greetings to the emperor and grandfather!"
"Is there anything wrong with you?" Yang Guang temporarily put the escape list aside.
"You are the emperor's grandfather, and the grandson is bullied, so I beg you to make the decision for the grandson!"
"What?"
Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, and even Pei Yun next to him was shocked. Someone dared to bully the crown prince.
Yang Guang's face suddenly calmed down and he asked, "Who bullied you?"
"Reporting to the emperor's grandfather, it was Yuwen Shu who fabricated the crime and joined forces with the Minister of Justice to frame his grandson in order to avenge his revenge for his reprimand of his resignation."
Pei Yun's eyes slowly narrowed, and it actually involved the Minister of Justice. I wonder how much money Yu Wen Shu spent on Yu Shiji?
"What happened? Explain the past and after I know what happened!"
Yang Nai told the emperor's grandfather in detail about the case of Tiansi Pavilion Restaurant. Yang Guang had no expression on his face and could not see his thoughts. However, Pei Yun next to him heard a clue. A small fight actually alarmed the Ministry of Justice. The water here was indeed very deep!
Yang Guang suddenly turned around and asked Pei Yun, "Does the Censorate know about this?"
Pei Yun hurriedly said, "Weichen just returned from Daxing City and don't understand the situation yet. However, the Censorate may know something inside. If Your Majesty doesn't bother, Weichen can go and inquire."
"Go!"
"I obey the order!"
Pei Yun glanced at Yang Lei meaningfully and quickly left the imperial study room.
Although there were only two emperor grandchildren in the imperial study room, Yang Guang did not mean to protect the emperor grandchildren. He said coldly: "Your guards participated in the fight and injured their lives. The Ministry of Justice enforced the law impartially. What's wrong with it? Because you are the emperor grandchildren, can your guards go out and talk about it?"
Yang Neng received detailed guidance from Zhang Xuan. He knew how to deal with the emperor's grandfather's questioning. He said calmly: "Your grandfather, the grandson did not mean to protect the guards. Although my guard fought fiercely with Yuwen Taibao, he did not take action to hurt others. The injured person was Zhang Xutuo's general. This is not a big case. It is an ordinary small case. It was originally tried by the King of Yin Wangfu, but it was taken away by the Ministry of Justice. Is the emperor's grandfather unaware that something was wrong here?"
"Then what do you want me to do? Do you come to try this case for you?" Yang Guang looked at his grandson with a smile.
Yang Neng knelt down and said, "The grandson only asks the emperor and grandfather to be fair. The grandson does not want to protect the guards, but he will never allow others to bully the grandson and the guards of the grandson!"
