Tibet

Chapter 186 Grab the Handle
At dusk, Li Ye and Zhang Ping came to a small house in Yongda Square.

"It's this small house, we tracked it for three days before confirming it!"

Zhang Ping's Daye Martial Arts School is really good at follow-up and investigation. No wonder their business is doing well, which makes Li Ye admire from the bottom of his heart. He smiled at Zhang Ping and said, "How about debt collection?"

"It's okay, debt collection has always been our strong point!"

Zhang Ping said with a smile: "To deal with high-ranking officials and nobles, we have always used disgusting and indiscriminate methods to annoy them so much that in the end we had no choice but to repay the debt."

Li Ye smiled and said: "Do you know that there is a player named Falcon among the polo players? He is loyal to the Yang family polo team."

Zhang Ping nodded, "I know this person. He competed with you for the polo player qualification."

"That's him. He is the son of Wu Xin, Jijiu of the Imperial College. His name is Wu Ying. He made a bet with me last year when he was hunting in Wutingchuan, and he lost three hundred coins to me, but he refused to pay the debt. You want the debt Come back, the money goes to the martial arts hall."

Zhang Ping was overjoyed, three hundred guan!
Zhang Ping asked again: "Does he have any clues?"

Li Ye nodded, "Last year when he played against the Fan Yangjun polo team in the top five match, he made three major mistakes, which caused us to lose to the Fan Yangjun polo team. But afterwards, at the gate of Guangzhaifang, I found that he got into An Lu Shan’s carriage, you tell him that if he doesn’t pay back the money, you will report to Gao Lishi about his secret affair with An Lushan.”

Zhang Ping hesitated and said: "He must know that you ordered it, especially if you know his secret, will he come to trouble you?"

Li Ye smiled faintly, "I can't ask for more!"

Zhang Ping said with a smile: "That's good, I will let him hand over the money obediently!"

At this time, one of Zhang Ping's apprentices ran over and said, "Master, Zhang Jun, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, is also in the house. We found a child, about five or six years old, who is Zhang Jun's son."

Zhang Ping said to Li Ye: "What's next and how should I do it?"

Li Ye shook his head, "I'll take care of the rest, you go!"

Zhang Ping also knew that he couldn't ask more questions about some things, so he left immediately with his two apprentices.

In Sun Jiliang's assassination case, the person who designed and framed him was the servant of the household department, Yang Tong, but there was another person who cooperated with Yang Tong to set a trap for himself, and that was Zhang Yan, who was treating guests.

If it wasn't for his treat, he wouldn't have rushed to Anranju Restaurant on time at [-]:[-] a.m., but Zhang Yan didn't show up in the end. He obviously knew what would happen.

Li Ye couldn't rub the sand in his eyes, since Zhang Yan cooperated with the Yang family to set a trap for him, how could he not return this gift.

It was later that Li Ye learned that the Zhang family had a grudge against his grandfather. Zhang Yan's grandfather was the famous prime minister Zhang Shuo.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the Zhang family teamed up with the Yang family to frame him.

Li Ye asked Zhang Ping to keep an eye on Zhang Yan's father, Zhang Jun, and sure enough he caught Zhang Jun's handle.

Li Ye waited for another half an hour, it was getting dark, and the gate finally opened, only to see a carriage driving out of the mansion, driving towards the gate, and the gate slammed shut again.

The car curtain is so tight that you don't even know who's inside?
If Zhang Ping's subordinates hadn't seen Zhang Jun get into the carriage in Daming Palace with their own eyes, no one would have known that this small house was actually the place where Zhang Jun, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, raised his wife.

Li Ye climbed over the wall and entered the house without a sound. He quickly figured out that there lived a woman in her twenties, a boy about five years old, two maids, two maids, and a The old butler, there are seven people in total.

Li Ye pried open the back window of the study and jumped in. The crime of raising a housewife is far from enough, and in the end it might be fined three glasses of wine.

Zhang Jun is the Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. His family background and strong connections can support his exoneration, so he must find some better charges.

The study is very clean, filled with a faint fragrance, all the furnishings in the room are very elegant and valuable, on the desk are the four treasures of the study, there is a white jade unicorn, and a white jade ruler, white and delicate, one can see It is an extremely precious thing, and the white jade unicorn is also carved from the same material, which should be cut from a large piece of Hetian jade seed material.

Li Ye has something, he thought for a while, looking for a box, put these two things in the box and take away.

Li Ye searched around in the study and found a large sandalwood box with a golden lock hidden behind a pile of books at the bottom of the bookcase.

Li Ye took out the box and twisted the golden lock. It seemed to be documents inside. He took it to the moonlight and looked at it. There were only a dozen letters in it. The weight and thickness of the box were wrong. Li Ye searched carefully for a while and found the most There used to be a mezzanine underneath.

Open the interlayer cover, there is a silk scroll underneath, it is a volume of books, the title of the book is faintly visible, and after a closer look, Li Ye was really surprised, it turned out to be a book of prophecy.

Li Ye quickly took out the silk scroll book, put it on the table and slowly unfolded it. There were many comments by Zhang Jun in the book, and there was a poem inscribed by Zhang Jun at the front, and the inscription below.

This is simply the best evidence!Zhang Jun didn't dare to keep the prophecy book at home, but hid it in his mistress' house.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside, Li Ye was startled, he hurriedly put the book of prophecy into the box, turned over and hid behind the screen next to the desk.

The door was gently pushed open, and a young woman in a white dress walked in. She walked directly to the incense burner in the corner, lifted the animal head, and put a few pieces of incense into the burner.

At this time, a gust of wind blew and the window creaked open. The young woman said to herself, "Fortunately, I came to see, otherwise it would be troublesome if it rains."

She closed the window, looked around the room again, and found nothing unusual, then closed the door and left.

Li Ye stepped out from behind the screen, and then he looked at the screen carefully. It turned out to be white jade made of mutton fat and the same material as the town ruler. There are three leaves in total, each made of four pieces, about one meter high. It is engraved with a flying pagoda, which is lifelike, and the base is also rosewood.

Ever since Li Ye crushed the white jade gourd in Xuebu, he has been obsessed with it, always wanting to find another white jade gourd.

Although it is also sold at the Anxi Jade Shop in Dongshi, the quality is far inferior to the previous jade gourd.

So Li Ye found out that there were three precious Hetian mutton fat jade in the study, and of course he was also moved.

Li Ye carried the screen with one hand and the box with the other, gently turned over the courtyard wall and disappeared into the darkness.

He went back to Changlefang first, put some jade wares at home, and then went to Pingkangfang.

Under the light, Li Linfu squinted his eyes and read the book of prophecy carefully. His joy could not be concealed. He patted the table and praised: "Good! Good stuff!"

The general evidence is just a book or an artifact, but this kind of evidence is not convincing, not conclusive, and there are many restrictions. If it is not found from home on the spot, the other party is likely to deny it.

What is the best evidence?The first place is the letter, and the second is the book with my own inscription and postscript, no matter when it is taken out, it cannot be denied.

Li Ye smiled and said, "With this good thing, my grandfather will be able to dismiss Zhang Jun tomorrow."

Li Linfu smiled faintly: "You're talking the wrong way. With this good thing, I will secretly help Zhang Jun compete for the third chancellor."

"Isn't the military representative in the photo?"

Li Linfu shook his head, "The so-called military representative's entry into the prime minister is likely to be tailor-made by the emperor for Yu Wenjing. Once Yu Wenjing is not qualified, the idea of ​​the military representative's entry into the prime minister may disappear."

"What about the elements?" Li Ye asked anxiously.

"Elements should be self-aware. His elder brother Yuantai is about the same. His qualifications are not enough, but I can recommend him to serve as Minister of the Ministry of War. He is not at a loss!"

Li Ye was helpless, the position of Xiangguo was not up to him, so he asked again: "Is there any hope for Zhang Jun?"

Li Linfu nodded, "Without Yu Wenjing, Zhang Jun, who is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, will stand out. In addition, his father Zhang said that I brought it down, and this time he cooperated with the Yang family in the Sun Jiliang case, and he will become the last one after Yu Wenjing's failure." A good substitute, it doesn't matter if he opposes me at ordinary times, but at the most critical moment, with this book of prophecy, he must stand by my side."

Li Ye still admired his grandfather's long-term thinking, using the letter in his hand and this prophecy book as a handle to secretly control Zhang Jun, which is better than directly overthrowing him.

Li Linfu knew that his grandson was uncomfortable, so he comforted him: "I know that the Zhang family participated in framing you, which made you unhappy, don't worry! I will tease Zhang Jun about the housewife tomorrow, and Zhang Yan will come to apologize to you soon , the Zhang family is very rich, if you want to extort thousands of dollars from them, just ask."

Li Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "When I took the books and letters, I took three pieces of jade along the way, so it's the Zhang family's compensation!"

"Three pieces of jade?"

Li Linfu's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but say, "The three pieces of jade you mentioned are a white jade unicorn, a white jade ruler, and a white jade screen?"
