Chapter 144: Clever Utilization


Wu Chongxun took his wife to visit the hot spring palace, which was the famous Huaqing Pool in later generations.

Du Jingting sent Wu Chongxun and his wife away, and immediately began to prepare a thank-for banquet, and at the same time sent someone to find his son.

This side is preparing, the gentry and magnates in Chang'an are coming one after another, they are all invited by the Du family, and their attitude towards this matter can be roughly felt from their identities.

But those who have a deep friendship with the Du family, or are attached to the martial family, most of them only send a nephew.

This thank-you banquet is the face of the Du family, and it is the face of the martial family, and those who have a friendship with the Du family or take refuge in the martial family will naturally not send the head of the family or the elders of the respected family to support Zhang Changzong.

Even most of the people who are interested in the Li family only send a nephew as a representative, although the Wu and Li families are fighting openly and secretly, they have the same hatred for the two Zhang.

The fifth son of the Xiangwang only sent the youngest brother Li Longfan to go through the motions, this is the king of the county, Du Jingting has to greet him personally, Du Jingting just welcomed Li Longfan in, and Longqingfang sent someone to report the news.

Longqing Fangfang sent a fangding to Anyi Fang in a hurry, riding a mule.

The housekeeper of the Du family, who greeted the guests in front of the house, stepped forward to ask and was surprised to learn that the eldest prince had hanged himself.

He hurriedly led the man into the house Du Jingting was accompanying Li Longfan to smile strongly, and the steward suddenly came in a hurry, Du Jingting frowned, confessed to Li Longfan, walked over and asked in a low voice, "Wentian is back" The steward said in a low voice: "Ah Lang, Da Lang Jun has found it, but it's not" Du Jingting said angrily: "But what does he dare not come back, this son of my Du family has been building for hundreds of years, ups and downs, and it has been ten times more embarrassing than today, so I am afraid that as long as I don't admit defeat and don't give up, but with arrogance and ambition, no one can step on the Du family."

What's the point of being disappointed?"

Although the truth is difficult to tell, but he can't help but say it, he lowered his voice and said abruptly: "Ah Lang, Da Lang Jun he was by the Longqing Pond and hanged himself."

"What" Du Jingting staggered back a few steps like five thunderbolts, his eyes were dark, and he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Li Longfan saw the opportunity quickly and took a step forward to hold him.

"Ahh Yang Dai'er opened her small mouth and babbled a few times, Yang Fan gently pushed a vermilion ball decorated with tassels hanging above the small bed, and the red ball swung up, Yang Dai'er immediately stopped screaming, just stared at a pair of paint-like eyes, and looked at the red ball in a daze.

Wan'er stood aside and said with a smile: "Dai'er is better than her sister when she was a child, I remember that when Si Rong was so old, although she was not as naughty as Nianzu, she didn't cry less, and the tossing little man was exhausted."

Daile is very well-behaved, as long as she is well fed and clean, she will not cry or make trouble, at most she will babble a few times, and she will be well-behaved if you coax her. ” Yang Fan said with a smile: "The child is his own good, Dai'er is indeed well-behaved, but if she is more naughty than Si Rong, you should praise her for being lively and full of spirit." ” Wan'er wrinkled her nose at him, leaned down to look at her beloved daughter, kissed her on the cheek, and when she looked up and saw Yang Fan's thoughtful expression, she knew that his mind was fluttering, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she smiled and asked with concern: "What, Du Wentian's matter is very troublesome."

Yang Fan shook his head and said, "It's not my trouble if there's trouble."

I'm thinking about something else."

Yang Fan gently stretched out a finger and touched Dai'er's palm, and Dai'er, who was looking at the red ball curiously, immediately held his finger with great force.

Her intently gaze hadn't taken her eyes off the red ball, but she had opened her mouth to reveal a silent smile.

Her smile was just a natural reaction to happiness, not necessarily because she knew that her father was teasing her, Yang Fan still smiled back at her, and then said slowly: "What I'm thinking about is whether it is better for this trouble to fall on Zhang Changzong or Wu Chongxun."

"Of course this black cauldron should be carried by Zhang Changzong" Shen Mu was resting on Qiqi's soft thighs, his baby son was trying hard to climb over one of his thighs, and the lotus-like fat arms and legs struggled hard for a long time, but the pair of thighs in front of him were like a mountain, and he still couldn't climb over.

The little guy raised his head angrily and howled twice, Qiqi leaned over and wanted to help him, but Shen Mu stretched out his hand to push him away: "Don't care, let him climb by himself, this son, you can't be pampered, otherwise you will grow up and become a waste like Du Wentian, then you will be a fool of yourself." ” Qiqi glared at him, and said unconvinced: "Go to my son so that he won't grow into that kind of loser" After all, she still didn't help her son after all, the little guy howled twice, and saw that his father and mother refused to help, so he widened his eyes, pursed his mouth, and continued his great cause of climbing the mountain.

Qiqi straightened the hair on his sideburns, and said softly: "Why is it better to let Zhang Changzong carry this black cauldron?"

Shen Mu said leisurely: "If this matter is revealed, what good will the Du family hate Wu Chongxun because of this, but what can he do if he hates it, don't say that he can be killed in bed, even if Wu Chongxun kills people afterwards to vent his anger, the Du family can really take the prince of Liang to atone."

As a result of this incident, the Wu family, the Li family, and the Du family have all become the laughing stock of the world, and the Du family, as the Guanzhong family, has since been at odds with the Wu and Li families, and the Wu and Li families will steal people because of peace and happiness, completely breaking off the alliance concluded by marriage, so that the two Zhang can profit from it.

Erzhang is the biggest variable in the future situation, and it is also the most uncontrollable variable for us, promoting the Wu-Li alliance and eradicating the Erzhang forces is a plan that we have formulated a long time ago, and it cannot be changed at will.

It is in our best interest for him to carry this black cauldron. ” Qiqi slapped two handfuls on his son's tender little buttocks to show encouragement, and said to Shen Mu: "You are going to tell Yang Fan like this" Shen Mu said: "I don't need to tell him anything, and he doesn't need my guidance or teachings.

He told me about this just to tell me that he had created an opportunity for us, and that it was inconvenient for him to come forward next, and it was up to me to take the lead and use this matter to promote the union of the local forces in Guanzhong and the Wu and Li families. ” Qiqi sighed and said, "I really don't understand you men, there is anything you can't say directly, you have to go around like this." ” Shen Mu smiled and said, "Because he also doesn't want to give me a feeling, a feeling that the Xianzong is still leading the Yin Sect."

Respect for each other is the foundation that sustains the peace between our two sects, not on the personal friendship between the two of us.

Of course, a woman with long hair and big butt like you doesn't understand this kind of thing. ” Qiqi glanced at him angrily, she didn't understand, but she was not interested in this kind of thing, her interest was in the gossip and gossip, she curiously diverted the topic and asked, "What is Wu Chongxun doing now?"

Shen Mu said lazily: "He, he and An Le went to the Hot Spring Palace to take a mandarin duck bath." ” Qiqi's eyes emitted an excited light: "His lady steals people, and he also goes to bathe mandarin ducks to bathe his heart is not so big, do you think he will find a chance to drown Anle" Shen Mu said lightly: "Qinghe Fang's family is a high-ranking family in Shandong, and Fang Xuanling is a generation of famous ministers, the commander-in-chief of the hundred divisions, who has been in charge of government affairs for 20 years, and the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition.

But his daughter-in-law, Princess Gaoyang, had an affair with a monk, and his son Fang Yiai actually let the door go.

I've always felt that this matter is a bit exaggerated, how can there be such a man in the world, and now I believe it, in fact, those who have eggs are not necessarily men" Qiqi laughed out loud and said, "No, I think Wu Chongxun can endure what others can't bear, he is a great husband, you should learn more from him." ” Shen Mu stared at her and said, "Let me learn from him, what do you want to do?"

Qiqi winked at him playfully and said, "If you were like him, wouldn't I be able to steal people with confidence." ” Shen Mu narrowed his eyes, revealing a very dangerous expression: "Who do you want to steal?"

Qiqi tilted his head sideways and calculated: "It's okay to steal anyone, for example, Yang Fan, how do you look, he is younger than you, more handsome than you, and he holds the same power as you, people not only hold great power in the dark, but also brighter than you in the open, such a good man, oops" Qiqi said, and a pair of charming eyes began to watery, as if he had moved his spring heart.

Shen Mu snorted and said, "Okay, then you can try it." ” Qiqi pretended to be innocent and asked: "If I really try, what are you going to do to hang Yang Fan on the side of Longqing Pond and love me as before" Shen Mu rolled his eyes at her and said, "I will sink you to the bottom of the Longqing Pool." ” Qiqi bit his moist plump lips and said softly, "Are you willing to do it?"

Shen Mu said with a straight face: "If you are willing to have eggs, you must be willing to do it."

"I'll bite you to death" The Qiqi girl was threatened, opened her mouth wide and rushed towards Shen Mu, but in the end, she only pecked and kissed him lightly on the lips.

Their precious son snorted and gasped, and finally managed to climb over his father's two legs, propped his hands on the couch, arched his little buttocks, turned his head to look at his father, and smiled triumphantly Du Wentian died, this one was beaten many times, but the more he was beaten, the more tenacious he became, and Xiaoqiang, who could never be beaten, finally hung up.

As soon as Du Wentian died, there was naturally no need for the Du family's guilty banquet to continue.

When Zhang Changzong saw Du Wentian's death, he knew that he had decided to carry this black cauldron.

Yesterday, Wu Chongxun came to the house to visit, but he proudly refused, and let out the wind, saying that if the Du family did not ask for guilt according to the agreement, he would not give up, and then Du Wentian hanged himself by the Longqing Pond.

Anyone would have thought that this matter had something to do with him, and some people had even come to this inference: After Du Wentian learned that Wu Chongxun came forward to mediate and was refused, he angrily went to the island theory, collided with him between words, and was beaten by his shameful lips.

This rumor has been widely spread in Chang'an City, but when he arrived at the scene of the crime, Liu Yitian, who saw Du Wentian's body, did not believe this statement, Du Wentian could not have hanged himself, he was hanged at all.

Longqing Fangfang heard about the murder case, and immediately led people to the lakeside, and after learning that the deceased was from the Fan Chuan Du family, he knew that this matter was not something he could handle, so he immediately reported it to Wannian County.

Wannian County Commander heard that it was the son of the Du family who died, and immediately went to see Chang'an Mansion Commander in person.

In the end, Liu Yitian, the commander of the Chang'an Mansion, led a total of nearly 100 people, including the judicial army, the magistrate, the general judgment, the Wannian county order, the Wannian county lieutenant, the patrol inspection, the errand officer, and the resentment, and rushed to Longqingfang.

After some investigation, they found five dead horses and four corpses in Longqing Pond.

After identification, the four corpses were Du Wentian's four entourage, and it was impossible to commit suicide at this point, Du Wentian with four guards, five big living people and five horses all died on the side of Longqing Pond, who else except Zhang Changzong could do this, which was clearly Zhang Changzong's revenge, naked revenge.

However, if this case is determined to be killed by him, it will not be able to bypass Zhang Changzong's mountain, and whoever dares to judge him and who dares to ask him will shudder when he thinks about Zhang Changzong's backer.

Liu Yitian and the judicial army, the judge and the magistrate, the county lieutenant, and the chief arrester of the torture room got together and discussed worriedly for a long time.

What they discussed was not the case at all, it didn't matter how Du Wentian died, and it didn't matter if the real culprit could be found, the important thing was how the case should be judged so that Zhang Changzong would not be involved, so as to avoid letting these local petty officials twist the empress's thigh with their small arms.

In the end, they got a completely unanimous opinion: "Du Wentian is a suicide" Du Wentian's tongue was cut off, it doesn't matter if his tongue is cut off, he still has the strength to commit suicide.

Du Wentian's lower body was also mutilated, it doesn't matter, he doesn't necessarily die immediately, as long as his vitality is tenacious enough, he can insist on untying his belt and climbing to a tree to commit suicide.

But his eyes were also gouged out, and it would be too unreasonable to say that he committed suicide.

A person whose tongue has been cut, his lower body is disabled, and his eyes are gouged out can still climb the old locust tree, untie his trouser belt and hang himself, this difficulty is really not a little bit, if he can break off his suicide, it is simply an insult to the IQ of the people in the world.

But there is never a shortage of absurd things in officialdom, and when they use some extremely absurd reasons to perfunctory the bitter lord and the people, in fact, they themselves do not believe that such bastard reasons can be trusted by others, but he gives you a reason, and you have no power to overturn the reason he gives you, and that's it.

As a result, the "truth" of Du Wentian's death was revealed: he committed suicide But why did Du Wentian commit suicide If he committed suicide because he was inhumanly abused, then the government still has to track down the murderer, and the reason why they came to such an absurd judgment of suicide is that there is no murderer, and this problem has come full circle and returned.

Zhou Yan, an old catcher who had been on an errand for 30 years in Chang'an Mansion and had incomparably rich experience, solved this problem perfectly after a careful and meticulous investigation of the scene: "The eyes of the deceased were pecked blind by crows, and the tongue and lower body were devoured by wild cats and wild dogs, and the scars on his body were all due to this.

Conclusion: The deceased was not injured before he hanged himself.

Liu Yitian was very satisfied with this result, and he handed over the matter of informing the bitter lord of the outcome of the case to the magistrate, who in turn pushed the matter to the Wannian County Order, and the Wannian County Commander in turn pushed the matter to the Wannian County Lieutenant.

The county lieutenant of Wannian pondered carefully for a while, and felt that it was not appropriate to announce the results immediately in the limelight, so the case might as well be delayed, and then inform the bitter master of the "investigation results" after the limelight had passed.

The case has already been concluded, and it is not uncommon in officialdom to investigate and try it in a painstaking manner.

Du Jingting ignored the assurances of the county lieutenant of Wannian that "he is stepping up the investigation, and if he kills him, the criminal will be brought to justice", when he saw his son's body, he had already determined that the murderer must be Zhang Changzong, he never thought that the government could uphold justice for him, and it was impossible for the government to bring the real murderer to justice Du Jingting hugged his son's corpse, and the old tears were rampant: "Son, go home, let's go home" Du Jingting struggled to hold up his son's body, and the two family members hurriedly stepped forward, took Du Wentian's body from him, and helped him into the car.

Du Wentian sat next to his son's corpse, held his hand, and swore an oath: "Son, this revenge, my father will definitely avenge you, do you think that with the support of the emperor, you can be safe and sound, he delusionally thinks that our Du family has been operating here for hundreds of years, and there are some things that even the emperor can't take away unless I am willing to give up."

Zhang Changzong, will pay the price for his rampant and cruel" The carriage carried an old man and a dead man and slowly left Longqingfang.

As the carriage was leaving, a fast horse came up to them, passing by.

Wu Zetian sent a messenger, and the secret envoy directly found Yang Fan, Yang Fan saw Wu Zetian's secret decree, and immediately went to see Wan'er, Wan'er saw the secret decree, couldn't help but sigh faintly, and said gloomily: "The saint still saw through my intentions after all." ” Yang Fan hugged her shoulders and said, "It's okay, Dai'er always wants to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors."

In this way, it is saved that there will be some twists and turns, and now that the emperor has such an arrangement, you and I will have sufficient reasons to meet in the future, do you want to see your daughter, is it not easy As for the Shangguan family to clear the charges, there is always a chance. ” Wan'er nodded, and asked worriedly: "How does Lang Jun plan to bring the child back to the Yang family, there must be no more children in the family for no reason, or in the name of adoption."

Yang Fan said: "It's not proper, it's so decent, why should I adopt a baby?"

He paced slowly in the room for a while, Huo Ran looked up and said to Wan'er, "Don't worry, I have a way" Yang Fan hurriedly returned to his residence, and saw Gu Zhuting holding incense cheeks in her hand, sitting in the bamboo forest in a daze, her eyes were full of waves, and she didn't know what she was thinking, as if there was a flash of excitement and joy in her eyes.

Yang Fan walked around her for two turns, Gu Zhuting was still unaware, Yang Fan sat down next to her strangely, shook his hand in front of her eyes, Gu Zhuting woke up with a "ah" sound, and said embarrassedly: "Ah Lang." ” Yang Fan asked, "What are you thinking?"

Gu Zhuting blushed and shook her head, and said in a low voice: "It's nothing, it's just a little distracted." ” Yang Fan sighed and said to Gu Zhuting: "Ting'er, there is something that can only be done by you now." ” Gu Zhuting straightened her back: "What's the matter?"

Yang Fan said in a low voice: "You have to pretend to be pregnant when you are pregnant" Gu Zhuting's face showed a strange look, and she said hesitantly: "Pregnant" Yang Fan knew that she didn't understand why she did this, and was about to explain the matter to her, but Gu Zhuting said: "People are really pregnant now."

This time it was Yang Fan's turn to be in a daze: "It's really you're pregnant, are you sure" Gu Zhuting bit her lip, nodded shyly, and said in a low voice: "The menstrual affairs of other people's families did not come, so they asked Doctor Mu to give a pulse, and Doctor Mu concluded that the slave family was pregnant. ” Yang Fan was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help laughing: "Anyway, our Xiaoman has already given birth to a pair of sticks, and it's not a big deal for you to have a pair of twins, Yang is talented, hahaha" : A big chapter in the early morning, asking for a monthly pass, asking for a recommended ticket on Monday To be continued
