Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 351 Big Food Merchant

"My brother is worried that the big food businessman is deceiving me, or there are other forces hiding behind him." Wei Zheng hesitated for a moment, but said truthfully.

"No matter what, we must find him as soon as possible and we must not let him fall into the hands of the Turks. Otherwise, once the Dashi businessman exposes the collusion between Dashi and Tubo, I will not only be dismissed from my official position, but I am afraid that Dali will The temple minister can’t be saved either.”

Yang Yanzhang looked at Wei Zheng's solemn expression and knew that Wei Zheng already knew something, and these things may be the purpose of Wei Zheng's visit to Beijing this time.

So Yang Yanzhang was silent for a moment, then slowly sat up, looked at Wei Zheng standing in front of him and said, "What do you want to say? Do you already know something?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, when I woke up in the hotel room last night, I found that the note was still there." Wei Zheng looked at Yang Yanzhang and said.

Yang Yanzhang's pupils suddenly shrank, he looked at Wei Zheng in front of him, took a deep breath and asked, "What did you write?"

"The Minister of Dali Temple, Yang Yizhong, was corrupt, perverted the law, and disregarded human life. My brother boldly guessed that the case back then was probably closely related to this matter, because my brother saw another secret letter.

The content of the secret letter was exactly the same as the note I saw, and I even used it to ask some of the postmen at the posthouse, but those postmen all said that they had picked it up in the posthouse. "

"Where is that letter?" Yang Yanzhang looked at Wei Zheng calmly. He had considered these things before, so he didn't feel much surprise. He even felt that it was expected.

After all, he had heard a little bit about Yang Yizhong back then, but he could never find any evidence.

The big food businessman was also killed in that incident, and the note was thrown away by himself.

Now that I think about it, the words on that note are indeed very similar to the note I threw away, but I didn't think much about it at the time.

"In Dali Temple, I planned to send someone to Dali Temple this morning to steal the note, but I didn't expect that the imperial brother arrived at Dali Temple before me. I had no choice but to give up."

"Go ahead. Don't let anyone else know about this for the time being, including the prince and the eldest grandson." Yang Yanzhang waved his hand and said.

When Wei Zheng left the room, Yang Yanzhang, who had just laid down, could no longer fall asleep. Then he slowly sat up and thought carefully about what Wei Zheng had come to see him today.

"Grandpa Huang, are you awake?" Li Zhe tiptoed and leaned against the window to take a look inside, then turned to look at Yang Yanzhang and said cautiously.

"What are you doing here? This is your father's room." Yang Yanzhang looked at Li Zhe, and the more he looked at this little grandson, the more he liked him. Whether it was his speech, behavior, or style of life, he was very similar to the little chubby kid back then.

"Hehe, my nephew misses you. Look at you, at such an old age, why are you still so sick?" Li Zhe winked and said sweetly.

"You bastard, you don't even understand what I'm doing, and you just want to annoy me. Are you itchy?" Yang Yanzhang glared at Li Zhe, and then sighed and said, "Your brother, in the past two years, I'm afraid... I am wronged."

"Father, don't worry, my brother will be fine. Besides, who can stand him with his personality? Even the emperor's grandmother was very angry with him, but she still couldn't change his bad temper.

So, father, don’t worry about my brother. Instead, it’s about what happened in the court this time. Please see how to deal with the aftermath. I heard that my father has been removed from the post of Minister of Dali Temple and is now under review. . "

Li Zhe climbed onto the bed, leaned on Yang Yanzhang's shoulder, and said coquettishly.

Yang Yanzhang stretched out his hand and patted Li Zhe on the head and said: "I am also thinking about this matter. You also know that now in the court, the civil and military officials in the court have quite a lot of criticism towards your uncle. So if I really want to kill you this time If the uncle is overthrown, the court will definitely be in turmoil. So, I will let your uncle handle the matter, but I will also ask the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Work to assist him."

"Thank you, father." Li Zhe hugged Yang Yanzhang's arm and shook it excitedly.

"Okay, stop shaking. My waist has been broken by your shaking. Hurry up and find your mother-in-law to accompany her to the temple fair. Your mother-in-law has probably been looking forward to your arrival for a long time."

Yang Yanzhang laughed and cursed, and then drove Li Zhe away. He stayed alone in the room and thought about how to properly resolve this matter.

At this moment, a rapid knock on the door came from outside, and Yang Yanzhang couldn't help but frowned. He knew it was Wei Zheng without having to guess, but at this hour, what was Wei Zheng doing with him? Did something happen again?

"Come in!" Yang Yanzhang shouted, and then he saw Wei Zheng running in in a hurry, with a heavy look of worry on his face, obviously he had encountered some trouble.

"Why are you so sad, Aiqing?" Looking at Wei Zheng's appearance, Yang Yanzhang asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, we just learned that Yang Yizhong, the minister of Dali Temple, was imprisoned."

"Killed in prison." Wei Zheng said with a heavy tone.

"What? What did you just say? Yang Yizhong was killed in prison?" Yang Yanzhang exclaimed. He couldn't believe that Yang Yizhong was actually dead.

Yang Yizhong was the minister he relied on most, and the minister who was most loyal to him after the fall of the Yang family. He always believed that he would never betray the interests of the Tang Dynasty. But now, Yang Yizhong was inexplicably betrayed by others. He was assassinated in prison, and he didn't even know about it. What on earth was going on?

"Well, the news just returned from the prison should be correct." Wei Zheng lowered his head and said.

"Yang Yizhong is my most valued minister. I don't understand why he betrayed me!" Yang Yanzhang angrily hammered the armrest of the dragon chair, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "Why did he betray me!"

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid there is something hidden in this."

"I want you to tell me why he betrayed me!" Yang Yanzhang stared at Wei Zheng angrily and yelled.

Wei Zheng was startled, and immediately knelt down and said, "I am scared! Please punish me, Your Majesty."

"Get up and talk." Yang Yanzhang calmed down a bit, asked Wei Zheng to stand up, and said, "Tell me what's going on."

"Your Majesty, Yang Yizhong committed suicide in prison out of fear of crime." Wei Zheng whispered.

"You committed suicide out of fear of crime?" Yang Yanzhang asked doubtfully: "How could it be possible? I remember that Yang Yizhong was a very cautious person. How could he die so easily at this time?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, Wei Chen couldn't figure it out, but Wei Chen checked his body in the Ministry of Punishment.

It was found that in addition to being stabbed once in the chest, the abdomen, neck and other parts of the body were cut, and blood flowed all over the floor. He should have committed suicide, and there was also a memorial in his arms. "Wei Zheng said respectfully.
