Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 340 If you don't explain to the master, then you can only suffer for the younger brother
"The king of Poyang... rebelled in the south of the Yangtze River?"

The news of the interrogation reached Li Yan immediately.

Not to mention that Qiu Shenji didn't know who this person was, Li Yan thought for a while before realizing that this Poyang king was Li Sujie.

Li Zhi's eight sons were all miserable in history. Whether they were descended from the concubine or the concubine, they couldn't get around Wu Zetian.

The eldest son, Li Zhong, was born in the palace. At that time, Li Zhi was already the prince. After he had it, Li Shimin was very happy and ran to the East Palace to take the lead in dancing.

Later, Queen Wang was still infertile, so Li Zhong was adopted by Li Zhong and became the first prince after Li Zhi ascended the throne.

When Queen Wang was abolished and Wu Mei was established as queen, Li Zhong's position as prince would naturally be lost.

The implication of this place was so obvious that Li Zhong was in a state of panic all day long, fearing that Empress Wu would kill him, and even wore women's clothing to guard against assassins.

But be careful, when Shangguanyi fell, Empress Wu still implicated him and executed him together. He was only twenty-two years old when he died, and he didn't even have an heir.

In comparison, the second son, Li Xiao, died of illness early on, which is not bad.

The experience of the third son Li Shangjin and the fourth son Li Sujie is similar, the sense of existence is not strong, at first they were crowned king, then they were demoted. execute.

The fourth son, Li Sujie, is the king of Poyang.

Compared to the first three mothers who were all palace people, he had the best family background, he was born to Concubine Xiao Shu, with the Lanling Xiao family as his mother. When Concubine Xiao Shu was fighting with the queen, she wanted to lift Li Sujie as the crown prince.

But if you say you rely on Jiangnan, you want to rebel?

Wash and sleep!

The Lanling Xiao family waited until after the Anshi Rebellion, when the central government’s supply of water transportation to the south of the Yangtze River was almost at the point where it could survive, and then took the opportunity to rise again, and now it is completely sidelined.

They may be deeply rooted in the Jiangnan region, and there are only seven Zhechong mansions in Jiangnan Road, none of which can compare to the garrisons in Lingnan.
Don't say that Li Yan doesn't believe it, Yang Zaiwei knows it's unrealistic: "This old villain is really talking nonsense, no matter how hard she beats, I'm not afraid she won't explain!"

Li Yan frowned and said, "Shenji has already seen that Shang Gong's willpower is not strong, and he will definitely be able to dig out all her secrets, but this delaying strategy is really vicious."

"As long as it involves rebellion, it is the top priority. Knowing that the possibility is very small, it cannot be ignored."

"The key is that there have been rebellions in the south of the Yangtze River. For example, Xiao Ling of the Xiao family in Lanling and Cui county magistrate of Guzang in Liangzhou have all cooperated with the enemy. If the thieves use this to stir up the atmosphere and make some small-scale rebellions, it will be true. There's going to be trouble..."

Thinking of this, he looked at Rong Niang behind him, and asked, "When you were with Shang Gong's confidants, did you hear their accents from Jiangnan?"

Rong Niang had changed her clothes at this time, and her appearance was much more dignified. She spoke slowly after she hadn't spoken for a long time, and said slowly: "They usually pretend to be Xiangxiu's hometown accent, and when they talk occasionally, they don't hear anything. Jiangnan accent."

Li Yan was not surprised: "Shang Gong's confidant has already been caught, she will not tell such an easily exposed lie, but the information she confessed has exposed the faction invisibly."

He looked at Yang Zaiwei: "This Shang Gong is likely to favor your master."

Rong Niang was baffled when she heard it, but Yang Zaiwei understood after thinking about it, "That's right, if she was loyal to the saint, she wouldn't dare to create such a rumor..."

A prince's rebellion is a big deal, especially in the Tang Dynasty, from the Xuanwu Gate change to Li Chengqian's rebellion, the most sensitive thing is this kind of thing.

In the history of Emperor Gaozong's reign, there was no real rebellion, and there were many political rebellions. The first was the conspiracy between Fang Yiai and Princess Gaoyang, which was handled by Changsun Wuji. A large number of people were gathered, and then Changsun Wuji conspired against the case, and more people died. The law of heaven is good for reincarnation. Changsun Wuji, who framed others back then, was framed instead.

And the so-called treason by Shangguanyi Li Zhong and others later was a means to attack political opponents.

But now according to Shang Gong's account, King Poyang is going to raise troops in the south of the Yangtze River, so the nature is completely different.

Shang Gong, who is loyal to the saint, would never dare to slander her with such things, unless she also wants to rebel!

Realizing this, Yang Zaiwei had a difficult look on his face.

He naturally hoped to catch Shang Gong who was loyal to the saint, otherwise it would become a camp of killing each other.

More importantly, if Shang Gong, who is biased towards Master, runs the Yaman Organization, does Master know about it?
Just at this time, Li Yan said: "There is no reason for it. It may not be without reason. Is there any arrangement for you in Jiangnan?"

Yang Zaiwei was upset, and said without hesitation: "I have been in the Western Regions of Tubo all year round, I don't know these things, ask my junior sister!"

Li Yan's eyes moved: "Alright, let's ask Jin Zhizhao."

He ordered the inner guards to continue to search Yaren, entrusted Rong Niang to Ming Chongyan, and took Yang Zaiwei back to the inner prison.

Jin Zhizhao was in a daze in the prison, her face was still pale and her expression was a little dazed as she was seriously injured.

Whenever someone passed by the door, she flinched, and gradually began to murmur: "Since the brothers have betrayed, what am I still doing? Tell me!"

"No, Master's kindness to me is as great as a mountain, and my father even warned me to listen to Master's words. If I betray Master, Silla will suffer!"

"But if I don't betray, will Silla be able to support under the Heavenly Army of Datang? The gap between the two countries is so big, and Silla covers its eyes, but it still can't change the fact of strength!"

"And that fat man... I can't hold it... woo woo woo..."

Thinking about it, she began to cry.

Datang is so scary, she wants to go back to Silla.

If Silla is destroyed, it will be Datang again.

Thinking about it this way made me cry even more sadly.

Crying and crying, the cell door suddenly opened, and the people outside didn't pass by, but actually walked in.

Jin Zhizhao's face suddenly changed, his body tensed up, but he was slightly relieved when he saw that the shadow was not wide.

But when she raised her head and saw Li Yan and Yang Zaiwei coming in, she hurriedly wiped away her tears, pursed her lips, and her complexion became extremely complicated.

Observing the change in her expression, Li Yan knew that she was on the verge of collapse.

Xue Chuyu's historical offensive during these days has worked well, but Qiu Shenji turned to interrogate Shang Gong, and inadvertently let her go, which further collapsed her psychological defense.

People are like this sometimes, holding a breath, but can hold on, once that breath is let out, it will go down a thousand miles, and you can never go back to the way it was before.

But at this time, Jin Zhizhao took the lead to question: "Brother, how could you betray Master?"

Yang Zaiwei frowned: "I did not betray Master!"

Jin Zhizhao was even more disappointed: "Senior brother, why do you still dare to act? If you didn't betray Master, how could he take you out?"

With a smile in his eyes, Li Yan explained: "You misunderstood, Yang Zaiwei went out with me mainly to find out the truth about his abduction back then, we dealt with Yaren Monk Gong, and he didn't disclose your master's situation. "

Yang Zaiwei nodded.

Although he confessed many of his own people, helped arrest Shang Gong who was biased towards the master, and searched the rest of the city, but he is a good disciple.

At least until now, he has clenched his teeth and has not betrayed any information about Master.

Jin Zhizhao looked at the senior brother with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he also chose to believe: "Oh, so it is like this!"

Her voice was not happy, but a little disappointed.

If Yang Zaiwei surrendered first, and then confessed himself, the guilt would be much less, but now she really does not have the confidence to survive Qiu Shenji's interrogation, seeing that she is about to be the first to surrender...

Subconsciously, Jin Zhizhao looked at his senior brother with a hint of pleading.

Can't you help me rebel?

Yang Zaiwei was stared at strangely by this look, and without thinking too much, he asked directly: "Do you have any news about Jiangnan? Will there be a rebellion there?"

Jin Zhizhao was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't care about Jiangnan's affairs. I'm mainly in charge of Liaodong, and Jiangnan is managed by my junior."

Li Yan raised his brows: "The junior you mentioned, is there a cottage near Tongguan, which used to be the stronghold built by the inner guard?"

Jin Zhizhao said in a low voice, "That's him."

Li Yan said indifferently: "It seems that you each have great uses. Yang Zaiwei is in charge of Tubo in the west, you are in charge of Silla in Liaodong, and a junior is in charge of Jiangnan. Can you introduce me?"

If you want to arrest people, you can arrest them. As for using the word referral?
Yang Zaiwei fell silent, while Jin Zhizhao's eyes flickered slightly.

Li Yan began to analyze: "If the rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River is part of your master's plan, Shang Gong now confesses that he actually betrayed your master in order to protect himself."

"She also knows that the land in the south of the Yangtze River is limited. It is impossible to successfully rebel and cause a moment of chaos at most. Now she has explained one step in advance. That's all."

"It's harmful to both of us."

"As far as the imperial court is concerned, if the south of the Yangtze River is in chaos, innocent people suffer from unreasonable disasters, and the transportation of rice and grain is affected. It is not easy for the scholars from the south of the Yangtze River to have a chance to raise their heads, and they will return to the past again."

"As far as you are concerned, your planning time may have been several years or even more than ten years. You have put in a lot of effort, and in the end it was used by a vicious old woman. Is it worth the further exposure and loss of manpower?"

In the end, he promised: "If your junior brother has not done anything that endangers the land in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as he is willing to eliminate this war, I will not hang him this time, how about it?"

Hearing this, Yang Zaiwei and Jin Zhizhao were moved.

When they got down a step, the two looked at each other again, and this time they both understood what the other was thinking.

Things have come to this point, if you don't tell the master, you can only suffer for the younger brother...
