The factory in the Imperial City sent people to Shouzhou quickly, but it was still a step too late and failed to intercept Fan Zhi's messenger to Shouzhou. This matter failed to break through. For a while, Yang Shiliang and others did not act rashly. They only increased their manpower to investigate the Guo family in Shouzhou and the Fan family in Tokyo, and the Fan family held funerals as usual.

At the time when the emperor re-granted Li Chuyun's military power, he was going to quell Shouzhou's rebellion. Unexpectedly, Li Chuyun died, and the order of the army was also suspended. For a time, the court had no time to do anything about plotting a rebellion against the old party.

The matter dragged on for ten days, and suddenly reported to Tokyo: Guo Jin was killed.

It turned out that after Fan Zhi reminded Guo Jin, Guo Jin had some restraint, and wanted to calm down and wait for the opportunity. However, the conspiracy department would be afraid of the imperial court to send troops to capture Shouzhou and conduct a liquidation. Under fear, he suddenly mutiny and killed Guo Shao, and searched out his conspiracy secrets and other items to offer them to the imperial court.

Some Fan Zhi’s autographs were taken from Guo Jin’s mansion as evidence. The funeral of Fan Mansion could not go on, because the guards quickly surrounded Fan Mansion, put his family in jail, and searched the mansion.

Soon, many of those involved were also convicted and imprisoned.

Guo Shao summoned Wang Pu, Huang Binglian, and Yang Shiliang in the Hall of Yangde, and asked them to preside over the three major cases of Fan Guo and other old party rebellion, Zhao family conspiracy to kill|jun, and Li Chuyun poisoning together.

Huang Binglian said: "The ins and outs of Fan, Guo and their party members' treason have been roughly figured out. They just wanted to take advantage of your majesty’s turmoil to support King Zheng (Chai Zongxun) to restore; and the Zhao family was bought The conspiracy of the government officials to conspiracy to kill the king was the result of the collusion of your majesty’s enemies Xiao Siwen and the old enemy Zhao’s family... The founding father (Li Chuyun) was poisoned and died. It has now been determined that it was the work of his aides Zhongli, but his motive has not been investigated. , Zhongli is also dead."

Guo Shao sat on the soft couch, still weak physically and mentally, and recovered very slowly. He spoke very little, after listening, he just asked: "There is no relationship between these three forces?"

Huang Binglian said: "It doesn't matter if you return to your Majesty. Their respective goals are different."

Guo Shao rubbed his forehead with his palm, frowning and asked: "Since Zhongli is dead and has no motives, how can he be sure that he is the one who poisoned the founding father?"

Although Guo Shao is in poor health, he still grasps the key points from a large amount of reported information.

Huang Binglian seemed to be a little surprised, clasped his fist and bowed and said: "The officials found some evidence from Zhongli's residence, which was drawn by Li Liangshi, the founder of the founding public. The officials immediately arrested Li Liangshi for torture. His confession has been deposited in the case. In. Judging from Li Liangshi’s confession, Zhongli became a confidant of the founding father, which was actually deliberate; and the group of papers he had intended to plant and frame was also a deliberate act."

Guo Shao nodded thoughtfully, then looked back at the crumpled piece of paper on the table.

I have ordered you to get rid of Li Chuyun, make up for the past, and ask your relatives and friends to be peaceful...Whose order? The meaning is definitely not the emperor of Liao, but the emperor of Da Xu; otherwise, the sentence of making up for the merits will not make sense. Zhongli, a person who has never been to Liao, does not have a "pass", let alone contribute to the Liao.

Huang Binglian said again: "But why Zhongli wanted to harm Li Gong is really confusing. This person used to live in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain and was named a hermit in the distance. He was later invited by Li Jun in the east of the mountain as a counselor to live in Hedong. For many years. When Li Jun conspired, Zhong Li repeatedly dissuaded him; therefore, Li Jun was destroyed, and when he liquidated his party members, he was released again because of the tolerance of the officials.

Li Jun's party has already destroyed the disbanded gang for a long time. At that time, the government checked Zhongli's details, and he was not a serious criminal. Therefore, the court could let him go, and Li Chuyun dared to use him and he should have passed the exam. "

Guo Shao pondered: "Why did Zhongli use such extreme methods to harm the founding father?"

The three people standing across from Guo Shao looked at each other and no one could answer.

Yang Shiliang said carefully: "Your Majesty, the deceased Zhongli intends to plant Li Gong’s death to the court. Perhaps he is not dealing with Li Gong, but resents the whole big Xu. The old man who dares to love still misses the old master’s grace and wants to be the old master. Li Yun's revenge?"

Guo Shao thought for a while, then shook his head slightly: "So hateful, that he can't use any means, just because of the grace of knowing and encountering, it doesn't make sense... After Zhongli became a Taoist priest, there are clear details. What did he do before becoming a Taoist priest? "

Yang Shiliang said: "In the past few decades, the world has been chaotic, and countless people have been displaced. Because of the long time, it is impossible to find out now."

Guo Shao didn't blame it. Even if it is a military commander of the Forbidden Army, some people have worked as family members of other families, and some people have been refugees. It is very difficult to verify with facts. This is what it looked like just after the troubled times.

For a while, everyone seemed to be pondering about Zhongli.

Guo Shao's way of thinking is different from that of the ancients, and Bi's early education is different. He thought about it this way: first, the relationship between Zhongli and Da Xu's important monarchs and ministers, there is only one intersection, that is, Li Yun; second, the poisonous killing of Li Chuyun must have a deep relationship. . It is speculated from this that the key reason at this time is how Zhong Li's life experience in the first half of his life "disappeared" could be related to Li Jun.

"Zhong Li, this name is very strange." Guo Shao slowly said, "Perhaps this person has changed his name and surname. He was also a member of the Li family before. The court killed Li Junju clan for the crime of insurrection, so Zhong Li is his own family. Revenge against the door."

The expressions of Wang Pu and the others all changed. Huang Binglian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is wise, so it makes sense. But... how do we verify the speculation?"

Guo Shao calmly said: "In this situation, the facts may not matter anymore. What the court needs most is not facts, but explanations."

The ministers nodded slightly.

Guo Shao meant that since the truth could not be ascertained, he had to create a "truth" and give an explanation to Li Chuyun's family, especially the imperial concubine Li Yuaner.

At this moment, Yang Shiliang said solemnly: "Your Majesty reminded the slave and maidservant that a Taoist priest in Zhongnanshan could testify that Zhong was surnamed Li before he left his home!"

Guo Shao waited for a moment. If there is such important news, why is Yang Shiliang talking now? Guo Shao didn’t ask. He didn’t expect this section, so he said: “Send someone immediately and get a confession from this person.”

Yang Shiliang clasped his fist and said: "Zunzhi."

Wang Pu said again: "Zhongli not only hides his family feud, but also colludes with Fan, Guo, and the Zhao family and the spies of the Liao country. The various forces are plotting wrongdoing. This is a big game! It is a pity that Dao is one foot taller. The devil’s height is one foot high, and it is the collusion of several undercurrents. It is still difficult to escape and destroy, and the foundation is unbreakable!"

Guo Shao immediately understood what Wang Pu meant. The more powerful the internal rebellious forces were promoted, the more powerful he could show the court...This way he could tell the world that even such a big force could not succeed, and those with unpredictable hearts had to weigh more. Weigh how much strength you have!

Guo Shao immediately said seriously: "Wang Shijun has a sharp eye, and he can see the conspiracy at a glance."

Only Huang Binglian stood there with a puzzled face, and everyone else said it seriously...Guo Shaoguanzhi, Huang Binglian is best at criminal law, and the political and strategic convenience is somewhat insufficient. However, he did not say a word, did not question, it can be seen that he still has experience in cabinet administration during those years.

...The three courtiers retired, and Guo Shao didn't deal with the memorials. He raised the gods in the Hall of Yangde for a while, and slowly took a teacup to fill the pot with water and watered the plants in the pot.

Not long after, Fu Jinzhan came in from the study. Guo Shao put down the cup in his hand, sat down on the couch, patted the side position, and said: "I should take the initiative to show Li Yuaner the file after the case is finalized, but I don't know if she believes it or not."

Jinzhan sat down and whispered softly: "As long as your Majesty is not suspicious, it is good for the country's political affairs."

Guo Shao sighed and said to Jinzhan with a good word: "Jinzhan has done so much for me. I wanted to return compensation, but now that I have everything, I can’t give you anything. Instead, Jinzhan keeps getting into trouble. In."

Fu Jinzhan looked at Guo Shao with a faint smile: "How does your Majesty want to compensate me?"

Guo Shao said: "Give you the best things, make you honorable and prosperous, make you live happily, have everything you want, and you can do whatever you want..."

"Brother Shao..." Jinzhan's tone changed suddenly.

Guo Shao stopped when he heard this name and stared at her.

Jinzhan whispered: "Brother Shao's former sister, and now I, don't want anything in return."

Guo Shao asked casually: "Then what do you want?"

Jinzhan said: "What I want, Brother Shao has already given...In the most difficult and dangerous times, who are you willing to give your life's hard work to, and whom do you trust?"

Guo Shao pondered.

Jinzhan smiled sweetly: "Everyone is for himself. In times of disaster, don't talk about feelings. At that time, Brother Shao's behavior was the most true aspect of you. You believe me, and I believe you... …"

Guo Shao gradually understood the meaning of Jinzhan, and the two silently looked at each other, and the time was frozen here like the quiet light coming through the window.

Jinzhan said softly: "You don’t want Brother Shao to give me anything. Brother Shao can’t let go of those thoughts of compensation. It’s meaningless. You are such a wise man, can’t you think of the simplest thing? If it were you Hard, how can I live happily; if you are happy, why am I not comfortable?"

Guo Shao was stunned there, seeming to think that Jinzhan made a little sense, but why can't he let go of that kind of persistence for so many years?

Perhaps everyone has obsessions and weaknesses. A wise man may not be able to do things that are very simple in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Brother Shao, you should put it down." Jinzhan's voice was like a spell, "Let go of the sister who has passed, and put down the heart of repaying me."

The soothing and charming voice, like an ethereal and mysterious, comes from the sky. Guo Shao felt inexplicably, as if he didn't know where he was, who he was, what he was doing, and what he did everything for...
