Chapter 325

Yang Shenjin stared at a list in front of him, frowned and thought for a while, and then slapped the pen in his hand on the table: "The rat who is brave"

He couldn't help but scold, because the list in front of him was the appointment and removal of new imperial officials, and some of his positions were replaced by Ye Chang. At the same time, some people with good relationships with Ye Chang, like the original Sima Yuan Highway in Dengzhou, entered the court.

He is not jealous of others' high officials, but he has removed his envoys, which makes him jealous of them. Now he can sit firmly in the court because of his financial management skills. Now he leaves him from his direct financial management position and only becomes a minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Anyone knows that this is a symbol of his saint's family being reduced.

As long as someone can replace him, it will be the time for him to step down. Yang Shenjin thought that he had been instigated by Yang Hui and Yang Qi to take over Li Linfu's position, so he realized that if he stepped down, he would have a rest and a day to recover.

It is even possible that Li Linfu will be dealt with. Even if he doesn't lose his life like Wei Jian, he will go to a remote and poor prefecture and county that is like Wang Zhongsi, and will even be thrown on Ye Chang's territory in Liaodong. He will know the news without any chance, just like Li Shizhi's stupid son.

He was just angry when he heard something outside. He looked like a mess and asked with a shout. Then a team of soldiers rushed in, held him with swords and guns, and pressed him to the ground.

"Let me go, let me go, who else dares to break into the courtier's residence without authorization"

Yang Shenjin was shocked and angry. This sudden change made him almost feel like a dream. When he was scolding, he saw someone walking in a hurry and walking in front of him.

When I looked up, I saw Yang Zhao's slightly lustful face.

"Yang...Zhao"

Yang Shenjin took a breath and knew something was wrong. Yang Zhao was the censor. He brought soldiers to the door without any warning. What does this mean?

Sure enough, Yang Zhao brought out the imperial edict and began to read it. When Yang Shenjin heard the charges in it, he was immediately panicked. Not only did he say that he had asked Shi Jingzhong to see his fortune and calculate whether he had the fate of the Nine Five Lords, but he also said that he had privately kept the prophecy and had bad intentions. Which of these two items was used casually, for him, the crime of raiding the family.

"Censor Yang, I am wronged, I want to see Your Majesty to express my grievance"

"Yes." Yang Zhao smiled: "As long as your Majesty is willing to see you."

"I would also like to ask the Censor Yang to tell me about his grievances... I have no intention of plotting against others. Those two charges are purely fabricated and framed by good people..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard someone strode over outside, but it was an official. As soon as the man came in, he presented a wooden box: "I found it, there was indeed a prophecy."

Yang Zhao opened the box and found a one-eyed stone man inside. Yang Zhao frowned and said, "What is this prophecy."

"Shi Jing looked behind it," said the official.

Yang Zhao turned behind and looked again, there were two rows of crooked handwriting on it: "The Yellow River Stone Man has one eye that has stirred up the world's rebellion."

"Hiss, so brave"

Yang Zhao took a breath and stared at Yang Shenjin with anger on his face: "The court treats you very well, and the sages are even more kind to your family. If it weren't for the court, you should be a slave in the desert, but you dare to do this."

Yang Shenjin was shocked and angry. At this time, he had not reacted yet, but just murmured: "I have never had this thing in my family. This... this is not my family's thing..."

"Isn't it your thing?" The official immediately became angry: "This thing was found in your study. There were five or six people present at that time, and even one of your managers was... bring that guy and confront Yang Shenjin, the prisoner."

I saw a person being pushed to see him. The man looked panicked. It was a manager in the Yang Mansion. He looked at Yang Shenjin and said in tears: "They are looking for this wooden box on the master's bookshelf... It's true, Master, you just accept it..."

Yang Shenjin was stunned and sighed for a long time: "This is not the case in my family. I came here suddenly, and the heaven wanted to destroy me... Mr. Yang, I want to give me a decent attitude in the sense that you have always had a little friendship with the officials of the same court. I... Although I was guilty of being a crime, others did not know about it. Please do not implicate my family."

How could he not guess that all this must be someone making a mistake. There are more than a hundred servants and maids in his house, and someone secretly hid a wooden box into his bookcase. How could he know?

Since the other party did so carefully, he would not give him a chance to get it back. The only thing he could ask for was a pleasure and not affect his family.

Yang Zhao smiled and gave a wink at the official. The official took everyone away. Yang Shenjin had lost his courage at this time. Although he was not restrained by the soldiers, he still knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up.

Yang Zhao walked slowly for two steps, then said, "This matter is important. Yang Shenjin, not only your family will be implicated, but your brothers and widowed sister will not be implicated by this matter."

Yang Shenjin begged hard, but Yang Zhao just ignored it. Yang Shenjin kowtowed like pounding garlic. Yang Zhao then said: "Although I am not familiar with you, I know that you are not completely unconscienced. So where does this thing come from?"

He pointed to the wooden box and Yang Shenjin was stunned. He didn't know where this thing came from. But after a moment, he immediately realized that Yang Zhao wanted to make the matter come true.

"This thing...this thing..."

"Yang Shenjin, do you want me to say it again?"

"This thing is what I gained when dredging the Yellow River... The one who offered this thing and me was a civilian man. He had been killed and thrown into the Yellow River in the name of my disobedience..."

Yang Shenjin had to miss a source and said, tears rolling down his face.

However, Yang Zhao looked down on him as if he had not seen him and had no sympathy for him: Yang Zhao was still very close to Li Linfu at this time. If Yang Shenjin had really gained power, how could his way forward be smooth? After all, Yang Shenjin was not much different from him, but Li Linfu was old. Moreover, Yang Shenjin planned to Ye Chang and almost wanted to kill Ye Chang. If Ye Chang lost his financial support, how could his life be so easy

"What about this? I heard that there was a statement in the confession of the prosecutor. After seeing this, a noble man said that you are not worthy of words. Then you looked for Shi Jingzhong to see the face... Who is this noble man?"

Yang Shenjin was stunned again, and then he realized that Yang Zhao's purpose was not only to make him accused, but also to pull his enemies off the horse through him.

Who is Yang Zhao trying to deal with?

Yang Shenjin's thoughts were teleported, but hesitated and did not answer. Yang Zhao saw that time had passed, and if he delayed like this, he was afraid that someone would be suspicious, so he sternly said: "Yang Shenjin, you have already received your death penalty. If you testify, it is the way to atone for others. Even if you can't save you, you can always save your family."

"I...I..."

Yang Shenjin originally wanted to say that I could not bite the innocent randomly, but Yang Zhao interrupted him rudely and said, "Your widow, do you want to send her to jail too?"

"I...I don't know...I don't know who the Censor Yang is referring to. I'd like to remind him a little..." Yang Shenjin was shocked and murmured.

"Negod, nobility, whom you conspired with, is not conducive to the intention of Gong Li, good or bad, and the pillars of the court, so that you can seek the throne in the court," said Yang Zhao.

Having said that, Yang Shenjin still doesn't understand what Yang Zhao said, it's nothing more than the prince-in-law Yang Hui.

"Mr. Li is indeed very good at eyesight, wisdom, and good means." He laughed shrillly: "I said why did it come so quickly... I thought Mr. Li was unwell, but I never thought it was true. First, he used his physical discomfort to seduce me to be greedy, and then made me not notice it with his physical discomfort... OK, okay, my skills are not as good as others, and I am willing to give up the disadvantage. You say that noble person, that is the noble person, anyway, I can't escape death, so I will eliminate another enemy for Mr. Li, just ask Mr. Li to remember this small skill and spare my family a way out. Even if I can wander in Lingnan, if they can travel to Liaodong, Ye Chang will definitely treat them."

He thought all this was Li Linfu's arrangement, because the whole method had a very distinct imprint of Li Linfu, but Yang Zhao knew that Ye Chang was in charge of the whole thing behind his back. From the fabrication of the charges to the bribery and frame-up, Li Linfu knew nothing, but when he heard that Yang Shenjin's final conditions were to exile his family to Liaodong, his heart beat, and he never thought that Ye Chang had a good reputation in Yang Shenjin's heart.

"If I had known that now, why did you deal with Ye Chang?" Yang Zhao said in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He clapped his hands, and the official outside came in again, someone brought paper and pen. Yang Zhao whispered: "Yang Shenjin, write it yourself. This is not the income from a certain torture, it is your own intention."

"Naturally," Yang Shenjin gritted his teeth.

He grind the ink and picked up the pen, and wanted to write, but he felt sad. He put the pen down again, looked up at Yang Zhao, with a last hint of hope: "Can I be like Wang Zhongsi?"

"Impossible." Yang Zhao said coldly.

Wang Zhongsi was able to go to Sichuan to survive because Li Longji wanted to save his life. Apart from Li Linfu, not many people wanted Wang Zhongsi to die. Yang Shenjin was not the case. He was in charge of more than ten envoys and could become the prime minister, blocking the way forward for many people. After gaining power for the past two years, he did not know how to restrain himself. Even the king, who was a relative, was resentful by him, and wanted to get rid of it quickly, let alone others.

"Okay, okay..." Yang Shenjin sighed again and then began to write.

Because of his turbulent mood, his fonts are far less than usual, and his writing is a bit distorted. Seeing that he is the most unhealthy minister, Yang Zhao couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Yang Shenjin is also a master of his time, otherwise he would not have been able to become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, only one step away from the position of prime minister. But once he lost power, he was so anxious that he was as sad as a dog who lost his family. It was really sad and lamentable... I must not have this day."

He made a secret decision in his heart that if he wanted to have this day, he had to take the initiative. If he wanted to take the initiative, he would be like Li Linfu, at a high position above ten thousand people below one person.

Yang Shenjin wrote down his confession according to Yang Zhao's intention. His only hope now is to reduce some of the charges to his family, so he has put some effort into it. He has taken some responsibility for some of the charges, but he instigated the person who committed a rebellion onto Yang Hui.

As for why Yang Hui was uneasy to be his son-in-law, but he wanted to participate in such matters, Yang Shenjin said nothing and asked Yang Zhao to perform his own efforts.

After receiving this confession, Yang Zhao was very satisfied. He immediately called someone over and took Yang Shenjin to prison. Thinking that Yang Shenjin was still cooperative, he also ordered that he would give Yang Shenjin the treatment he deserved.

He left Yang Shenjin's mansion and just left the door, he saw a carriage coming. Ye Chang lifted the curtain and asked with a smile: "Do you want to take a ride?"

"good"

When she got on Ye Chang's carriage, Yang Zhao praised: "Shiyilang really knows how to enjoy it, this car is more comfortable than mine."

"It won't take long to sell this carriage in Chang'an. Brother Yang can buy one at that time." Ye Chang laughed and said, "If you give it to me, you won't give it to me. This is not as good as before. After this, Brother Yang said that he would have to increase his salary. I don't know how much it will increase."

He only gave Li Linfu a car of this type, and Yang Zhao's one was the old model. Yang Zhao laughed: "Sure enough, the court asked you to be in charge of river engineering, which is really right."

At this time, the Yellow River floods were far less than those in later generations. The most important responsibility of in charge of river engineering was to enable the grain and silk from the two Huaihe Rivers to be transported to Guanzhong for use by the huge number of officials and civilians in the capital.

These words of the two, seemingly unrelated gossip, were actually confirming the division of interests after the matter was done. Ye Chang asked calmly: "Have you asked?"

"As you expected, you will be completely aware of it. Yang Hui will definitely not be able to escape this time." Yang Zhao's eyes flashed and his voice lowered: "But this matter... Will Mr. Li be dissatisfied? We acted under his banner and let him take the blame."

"After falling down Yang Shenjin, Li Xiang has no objection to taking the blame for two more times. What's more, has he taken the blame for others less? How could he care about taking some of us?"

Both of them immediately laughed, and they became less awe and more teasing towards Li Linfu.

"Where is Shiyilang going this time?"

"I have met the saints and river craftsmen in Xingqing Palace. I have already made plans and I have to report them to the saints."

"So fast?"

Yang Zhao was surprised, but Ye Chang just smiled.

He didn't think this was any quick, but in fact, he had already planned for the river engineering. Now that the Yellow River is in winter, it cannot sail due to freezing. It has a great impact on the transportation of the Tang Dynasty and has a great impact on Ye Chang's major money-making plan. Therefore, Ye Chang had a plan very early.

Now I just use this official identity to bring out this plan.

Their car soon arrived at Xingqing Palace. After reporting, it didn't take long to delay. Li Longji summoned the two of them to come in. When they entered, there was a fragrant breeze coming towards them. The Yang sisters were about to leave, so they met.

Ye Chang had no good feelings for the Yang sisters, and was somewhat afraid of these girls, so he avoided him and looked around without looking at him.

"Oh, isn't this Ye Shiyilang? Tsk tsk, I've only been away for a while, so I'm even more handsome. Let me take a look at you... No wonder our 29th Lord has fallen in love with you, look at your face."
