Chapter 365 Cowardice

He knew Li Tai's character very well. He was cowardly and submissive, and he didn't look like a member of the royal family at all.

As Yang Yanzhang said, if Li Tai really wanted to usurp the throne, there was no need to plot in secret.

Therefore, Li Zhi guessed that Yang Yanzhang deliberately sow discord.

After thinking about this, Li Zhi suddenly said in a cold voice: "You don't have to instigate evil. How can I allow you to make alarmist remarks here?"

Yang Yanzhang's expression suddenly changed, and he knelt down on the ground in a hurry, saying in panic: "Father, this child is really unjust!"

"That's enough!" Li Zhi shouted coldly, waved his sleeves and said, "Here comes someone!"

"My slave is here!" A palace maid immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, clasping her fists.

Li Zhi glanced at Yang Yanzhang and said: "Send the order and immediately take Yang Yanzhang to the prison and execute him on a later date."

"Father, the child is wronged." When Yang Yanzhang wanted to continue his defense, he was pulled out of the Qiankun Palace by the guards.

"Alas." Li Zhi sighed, slowly closed his eyes, and sighed softly: "I am indeed sorry for my ancestors, but I can't even teach my son well."

"Father, you are too worried. The prince is not what you imagined."

Li Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "That's it. The matter has been settled. It will not help to bring it up again. I just hope that the prince is truly loyal and patriotic. He must not imitate Liu Hong's traitor and lead the wolf into the house to harm the people!"

At the end of the sentence, Li Zhi shook his head.

The next day,

After Yang Yi had eaten and drank enough, he walked out of the palace alone and drove towards Nanjun City.

He knew that his trip to Nanjun this time was a narrow escape. After all, he had already become enemies with Li Shimin and others. Once Li Shimin knew about this, he would definitely not let him go, so Yang Yi chose to go quietly.

Along the way, Yang Yi encountered several waves of assassins, but they were all dealt with by Yang Yi. He also successfully arrived at Nanjun City.

Nanjuncheng was Liu Xiu's fiefdom, and it was also an important town on the northern frontier of the Song Dynasty. It had five thousand soldiers stationed throughout the ages.

Yang Yi stood outside the city wall of Nanjun City, looking at the majestic ancient city wall in front of him, and sighed: "What a majestic ancient city!"

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from the city gate.

After a while, the city gate opened wide.

At this time, Yang Yanzhang led many guards and ran over on horseback.

Yang Yanzhang first took a deep look at Yang Yi, then rode his horse and stopped in front of the city gate. He said loudly: "Mr. Yang Yi has come from afar. I, the prince, did not come far to greet you. I hope you will forgive me."

The guards beside Yang Yanzhang turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee and said: "See His Highness the Crown Prince."

He nodded slightly, then looked at Yang Yi, clasped his fists and said, "I don't know if Mr. Yang is visiting late at night, but I am far away from you, so I still hope to see Haihan."

"It's okay, I came here specifically to look for you." Yang Yi smiled lightly and said, "Your condition seems to have worsened."

"Yes." Yang Yanzhang said with a gloomy expression: "Ever since my father announced that he would depose me as the crown prince, the toxins in my body have been recurring more and more frequently, and they occur every half a month. Today is the deadline for my body. "

Yang Yi said: "You have been poisoned by a chronic poison. If you don't get rid of the poison in time, you may not survive for three months. Do you feel weak all over, even dizzy, nauseated, chest tight and vomiting?"

Yang Yanzhang was startled and said in surprise: "How do you know?" "Of course I have a way to save you." Yang Yi slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said: "As long as you ask your sister to hand over her mother's body, I may be able to save you. Your life."

Hearing this, Yang Yanzhang's expression suddenly changed. He gritted his teeth and said, "You dare to covet my imperial concubine. You are really seeking death."

Yang Yi sneered and said: "If you don't let your sister hand over the body to me, then we will both die together."

Yang Yi said, taking out a dark pill and saying: "I advise you not to try to kill me, because I have a few poisons on me. Once they explode, the whole city will flow into rivers of blood, and chickens and dogs will be restless. Do you believe it?" Do not believe?"

Yang Yanzhang glared at Yang Yi, wishing he could rush up and kill him with one palm, but reason still defeated his anger.

"Okay, come with me!" Yang Yanzhang said through gritted teeth, and then took the lead in walking towards the city lord's palace.

After a while, Yang Yanzhang took Yang Yi to a side hall of the city lord's palace. They saw that the house was surrounded by white silk ribbons and lanterns, as if they were offering condolences.

"Sister, brother is here to see you." Yang Yanzhang opened the door and shouted.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, I saw a beautiful woman in gorgeous palace clothes. With tears streaming down her face, she choked and said, "My daughter died a tragic death, and you still want to pay homage to him!"

Yang Yanzhang said: "Huang Gu, the deceased is gone, and the living should do something for the deceased."

As he said this, he looked at Yang Yi and said, "Thank you, Auntie Huang."

"Yes." Yang Yi bowed respectfully and said, "Yang Yi pays homage to the empress."

"No need, no need." The woman wiped away her tears and said, "Your name is Yang Yi! You can save my daughter's life. You are truly a bodhisattva."

Although the woman is over thirty years old, she has extremely well-maintained skin, and her skin can be broken by blows. Every frown exudes nobility, especially her cheeks, which are even more delicate and charming.

Not only that, the woman's eyes revealed wisdom.

"Your Majesty, thank you." Yang Yi said with a faint smile: "I wonder what your Majesty's daughter looks like, and why was she assassinated?"

"Alas~." The woman sighed and said, "My daughter is named Li Shuyi, and she is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Nanchang. When the Marquis of Nanchang was assassinated, my daughter was also kidnapped."

Yang Yanzhang took over the conversation and said: "I suspect that the murderer is probably hiding in the Nanchang Marquis Mansion, because my father has ordered me to go to Nanjun to handle the case, but I am unwilling to do so, so I asked Mr. Yang to help me investigate. Find the murderer and give justice to my Li family."

After Yang Yanzhang said this, he looked at Yang Yi with burning eyes.

Yang Yi smiled lightly and said: "Prince, don't worry. Since I promised to help you, I will definitely do my best. No matter who it is, whoever dares to offend His Majesty's majesty will die!"

"Okay! I, Yang Yanzhang, admire Mr. Yang's words!" Yang Yanzhang laughed loudly and said, "In that case, let's go in and talk about business!"

"Well, that's very good." Yang Yi nodded lightly.

Yang Yanzhang turned and left the room, took Yang Yi to a desk and sat down. He took out a memorial and handed it to Yang Yi and said, "Mr. Yang, here are the clues I investigated. Take a look."

"Oh!" Yang Yi looked at the memorial and asked with a slight frown: "Don't you have someone to suspect?"

Yang Yanzhang smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Yang doesn't know something. After my father promulgated the imperial edict, I sent people to conduct a secret investigation and found that besides my father, there are two other imperial uncles in the capital."
