Chapter 445 Park Jung-eun's Identity
"Liulang, did Park Jung-eun's family bring it back?"

Just as Zhijian yelled, and the monks on the martial arts training ground huffed and left, Guo Yuanzhen came to the office building and found that Li Yan had returned from the pier and was looking down at the file. asked.

Li Yan nodded: "There were some twists and turns in the middle, but they have been brought over, and the harvest is not small... What about you? The abbot of Shengqing Temple is not willing?"

Guo Yuanzhen snorted, "You don't eat the toast, you don't eat the fine wine. These Silla monks thought it was the time when they were in charge of the wind and rain. It's time to rectify it!"

Li Yan understood: "Unless it is absolutely necessary, monks will definitely not be willing to pay taxes. It is not just about money, and a series of privileges derived from it will disappear."

Guo Yuanzhen sneered: "Now the Shaolin monks are dispatched, they will feel better! In the land of Silla, the people are poor and the country is not rich, but these nobles and monks are all rich, so they should cut their flesh!"

Li Yan nodded: "The old nobles of Silla are related to the stability of this place. Let's bring them into Luoyang first. After the rectification of Buddhism, the Governor's Mansion will soon discover the financial benefits of 'perfume money'..."

We all know incense money, and believers donate money to temples, but perfume money is relatively unknown.

In fact, during the Gaozong period in history, there are documents that mention monks paying taxes. Because the financial situation in the later period of Gaozong's first dynasty was very poor, the monks' idea was really made, but it was a pity that it was not really implemented. In the Wu Zhou period, Buddhism was greatly promoted, so that It is obviously impossible for Buddhism to pay taxes.

During the Anshi Rebellion, Guo Ziyi did not have enough military expenses, so he collected tax money from monks in various prefectures to supplement military supplies, and it was called perfume money.

It was temporary and did not become a fixed model. After the Anshi Rebellion, the power of the central government was greatly lost, and the governors of various places were apportioned in arbitrary names for military expenses, and there were many miscellaneous taxes. , Tang Dezong period of the two tax law came into being.

This method has been called the watershed of China's taxation reform in later generations. It has great advantages and disadvantages. There are too many places to talk about. Just look at the situation related to Buddhist temples. Due to the pressure of political performance, they shifted the pressure of paying taxes to monasteries with strong economic strength and collected taxes from monks.

The imperial court got benefits, turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye. The local states and counties were more excited when they saw it. Private collection of apportionment for monasteries was common. Both tax laws lasted less than thirty years.

It can be seen from this that when the crisis is really at stake, the fat meat of Buddhism must be cut as soon as it should be cut. Don't talk about Buddha with me, just want to make money!

Although Buddhism is harmful, it is difficult to destroy it. Li Yan chose to promote the taxation of Buddhism to avoid the latter situation of prosperity to madness.

As for the extent to which it can be suppressed, it depends on how much money can be made in the future.

After talking about this topic, Guo Yuanzhen thought of the man who caused the whole Silla to die: "Liulang, you just said that Park Jung-eun's family brought it, and what is the harvest? Who does he take orders from?"

Li Yan handed over the case file in his hand: "When I first saw it, I was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, it makes sense. Take a look."

Guo Yuanzhen took it, and found it very familiar at first glance, because it was the case record format of the internal guards, but the yellow paper was extremely old, and the ink was very light, and there were traces of re-describing, as if he didn't dare to make it too serious. I just sketched it lightly.

But when he took a closer look, he couldn't help but change his face: "In the former Sui Dynasty, Yang Wenhui, the internal guard Jiyi, was named Park Canying?"

Li Yandao: "This is Park Jung-eun's father, and it is also the reason why the ship to Japan has not returned. The dying man can not only maintain vigilance, but also has a certain ability to move. He almost escaped under the arrest of the inner guards. , and later found these in his secret stronghold."

Guo Yuanzhen couldn't believe it: "Is Park Jung-eun's father an internal guard? Or was it someone who sneaked into Silla during the Sui Dynasty?"

Li Yandao: "Actually, it's not difficult to explain. The former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goryeo three times. The first time he issued a stupid order, he repeatedly gave Goryeo the opportunity to defend the army. In the end, the war opportunity was delayed, resulting in a disastrous defeat. The second time, he was forced to return because of Yang Xuangan's rebellion at home. The third time was that both sides suffered losses, and the people of Koryo were also suffering from years of fighting, and the king of Koryo sent envoys to seek peace, so that Emperor Sui Yang, who had the best face, had a chance to return to the country."

"During this process, the inner guard actually collected a lot of information about Goryeo, and Yang Wenhui was ordered to infiltrate early. It's just that Emperor Sui Yang was self-willed and didn't listen to advice, so the inner guard put all his heart and soul into it."

"After the second conquest failed, Yang Wenhui simply went to Silla. Later, due to the disastrous defeat of the three conquests, the internal guards never recalled him, but he kept trying to pass the information back, and was later named an opportunistic envoy. .”

Guo Yuanzhen was stunned, and then looked at the record: "So that's the case, but this person is really powerful. Although Silla is governed by the Kim family, the Park family is also a nobleman after all. He can live as a Silla person and hide it from everyone around him." other people."

Li Yandao: "This person is proficient in the method of disguise, speaks three languages, and has small eyes, just like the real Pu Canying in appearance, and the Pu family is thin, and then passed away one after another. When he married a wife and had children At that time, the blood relatives are gone."

Guo Yuanzhen guessed: "This person couldn't have poisoned him, right?"

Li Yandao: "I don't know, but judging from the records, this Yang Wenhui is really good at poisons, and he doesn't distinguish between medicine and poisons. Park Zhengen's medical skills should be learned from him, and he lied to the outside world that he came to study after Tang Dynasty."

Guo Yuanzhen hurriedly asked: "Has this person explained? Was Park Zheng-en sent to Datang?"

Li Yan shook his head: "Bringing it back is already a corpse. Yang Wenhui is already old. After a fierce chase and escape, he was dying when he was caught. Before he died, he wanted to burn these materials. Fortunately, he stopped one step in advance..."

He sighed leisurely: "In any case, Yang Wenhui is also from the Central Plains of me, and he is also an internal guard who has served the country. He should not have died in the Japanese country. I have ordered someone to bury him."

Guo Yuanzhen frowned: "But in this way, Park Zheng-en's clues are broken again?"

Li Yandao: "On the contrary, I couldn't figure out how a person from Silla would appear in Lingnan and be involved in the tragic death of the entire Changsun family, but if this person got in touch with the inner guard through his father's relationship, On the contrary, it can be explained.”

"When the internal guards were abolished back then, there was a force that wanted to put the Changsun family to death. This was information obtained from 'Zuo Ming', but this person did not find out who poisoned the entire Changsun family in Lingnan. Now I finally understand that the source actually lives in the Wa Kingdom."

"'Zoming' has a lot of power, and even has connections with Tubo, Turks, and Silla, but no matter how hard she investigates, she can't send people to the island to find people in Japan. Naturally, she would not have thought of such a layer associated..."

Guo Yuanzhen felt a chill: "In other words, the extermination of the Changsun family back then was instigated by a certain high-ranking member of the inner guard, who happened to discover that Park Jong-un, who appeared to be from Silla, was actually inextricably linked with the inner guard, and it was difficult to trace. Let him pretend to be a wandering doctor and poison him because of his origin?"

Li Yan nodded slightly: "It's still hard to be sure, but after tracing this, there is indeed a clearer thread in series. At least the motive is there. If Park Zheng-en is caught, the things that happened back then will basically come to light."

Guo Yuanzhen's face is heavy: "I'm afraid that Park Zhengen has been murdered and silenced. He may have returned to the Central Plains and got in touch with the inner guard, but was used by the thieves to murder thousands of Changsun's lives. Such a big thing After the incident, the instigator will definitely not be left alive. If Park Jung-eun dies, our clues will be completely cut off..."

Li Yandao: "Do you still remember that when you went to Lingnan to investigate the case, the local people said that the bloody case was for the revenge of Wu Guogong?"

Guo Yuanzhen nodded: "Liu Lang's analysis at the time was that the murderer didn't want this case to be paid attention to, but there were details of the revenge of King Wu's ghost during the crime. He was high-profile when he committed the crime, but low-key after the crime, which is somewhat contradictory."

Li Yandao: "If Park Jong-un is the perpetrator, why do you think he did this?"

Guo Yuanzhen pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up: "I understand what Liu Lang means, is he out of righteous indignation?"

"The servants of the British government proved that Park Jung-un, who practiced medicine and worshiped Buddhism, was supposed to be a kind person, but committed such a bloody crime. If he was not evil by nature, does it mean that he thought that the former Zhao Guogong deliberately killed Wu Guogong, so he killed him?" The whole family of Duke Zhao before his death was a kind of karma? The details of Duke Wu’s ghost coming back for revenge were added by himself..."

"And the instigator behind the scenes just wanted the Changsun clan to exterminate the family, and didn't want to make things big, and he didn't want the court to pay attention to this case far away in Lingnan, so he tried his best to cover up the details of the case afterwards, and even set fire to the case of the capital lawsuit. record and destroy the evidence."

Li Yan smiled and said: "Yuan Zhen is really smart, that's how I analyze it, but I have a point of view that differs from yours, and I don't think it's just out of righteous indignation."

Guo Yuanzhen wondered, "What else could it be?"

Li Yandao: "It depends on the identity of Yang Wenhui. I just asked Zhong Jing to get the information and verify the guess...here it is!"

Not long after the words fell, An Zhongjing walked in with great strides: "Liulang, this is the case record transferred by An Dong's Protectorate."

Li Yan took a look at it, nodded, and handed it over: "It really is!"

Guo Yuanzhen took a look, and his pupils shrank suddenly: "Yang Ji, Zi Wenhui, the son of the former Sui clan Yang Xiu, was demoted to a commoner during the former Sui Dynasty Emperor Yang, exiled to a remote place, and his whereabouts are unknown... If this Yang Wenhui is not a coincidence of the same name, If he is really the nephew of Emperor Sui Yang, then his son Park Jung-eun is not exactly..."

Li Yandao: "That's right, Pu Zhengen is the son of Yang Wenhui, the grandson of Yang Xiu, Wu Guogong is the son of Concubine Yang, and the grandson of Yang Guang. Yang Guang and Yang Xiu are direct brothers. From the perspective of blood relationship, these two people are also very close cousins. "

"Ordinary people may not want to have anything to do with the royal family of the former dynasty, but for a person who returned from Silla and was eager to recognize his ancestors, this recognition is very important. When he was a guard next to Jin Renwen, he saw it with his own eyes. I saw the king of Wu was wronged and died."

"That's why the behind-the-scenes messenger can use him to avenge Wu Guogong, and finally kill the entire Changsun family with ghosts!"
