Chapter 521: Proving Innocence
When Yang Guangcha heard this question, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and raised his head and replied: "Last night in the mother's harem, when I heard Qinghe Gong tell his mother that he knew Gao De, his son had deduced that it must be Nan Chen's fine work in Chang'an who instructed Gao De to write a book, wanting to use discord to confuse the government and divide the relationship between my father and son. Therefore, I implore the queen mother to come forward to persuade my father and the emperor, and Rong Erchen to stay in Chang'an for a while longer, and personally arrest Guan Zizai to serve you. ”
Dugu Jialuo saw that Yang Guang understood the wrong voice of his words, and did not want to leave Beijing as soon as possible to avoid trouble, but wanted to persuade his husband to stay in Chang'an and continue to check Guan Zizi, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and asked Yang Guangdao: "I heard He Zhu'er talk about it early this morning, it seems that I saw you outside the Linde Palace, Ah Zong, before you came to Zhengyang Palace, but you have already seen your father?" ”
"Yes. The father asked his sons to leave tomorrow to return to Bingzhou, but the mother ......" Yang Guang was eager to argue, but was stopped by Dugu Jialuo waving his hand.
"Ah Zong, you left Beijing before the age of thirteen and went out of the town and joined the state, and for the first time in five years, you have returned to the court by order, why don't you want you to live in Chang'an for a few more days?" Dugu Jialuo raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes with a towel, and said meaningfully, "From the bottom of my heart, I don't believe that any of your brothers would do such a rebellious thing. Ke'er, as the king of a dynasty, the reason why he sent his three sons out of Chang'an has his own reasons, besides, whether it is from the consideration of Jiangshan Sheji, or from the sake of proving the innocence of the three of your brothers, my mother thinks that your father did not do anything wrong. Therefore, my mother advises you to obey your father's will, and leave Chang'an tomorrow and return to Bingzhou. ”
"Mother, the sons don't understand, there is such a thing as Gao De's book in the court and the palace, how can my father suspect our brother's head?" In front of his mother, Yang Guang endured and endured, but he couldn't help but vent his dissatisfaction.
"Over the years, haven't Wang Zixiang, Li Guangda and others taught you in Bingzhou? In all dynasties, how many cases have there been in the struggle for the throne, father and son have killed each other? Dugu Jialuo's face sank like water, his tone increased, and he taught his son, "Now, your father is in the spring and autumn period, but suddenly there is a matter of high virtue in the book, to persuade your father to abdicate and pass on the throne to your eldest brother, if it is you, what will you think?" Would you have thought that one of my sons had made great contributions to the imperial court, thought that he was full of feathers, and was in a hurry to seize power and usurp the throne, instigating others to write a book, forcing his father to abdicate and blaming the prince, in order to achieve his ulterior motives! ”
Dugu Jialuo's words were extremely serious, and he almost pointed out to his face that Yang Guang was the mastermind behind the instigation of Gao De's book, Yang Guang listened, he couldn't stand anymore, prostrate on the ground, and kowtowed again and again to apologize: "The son is wronged, the Buddha is above, the son has no such usurpation heart, please ask the queen mother to see it!" ”
Facing his favorite second son Yang Guang, Dugu Jialuo was also forced by Yang Guang's obsession and reluctance, and was angry for a while, so he rushed to reveal the true intention of his husband to drive his three sons away from Chang'an, and when he saw Yang Guang frightened like this, he couldn't help but regret it, regretting that he shouldn't explain all this to Yang Guang without concealment, so he deliberately slowed down his tone and instructed Yang Guang: "You get up." What the mother just said, it's just angry, you don't have to take it too seriously. You must understand that your father sent your three brothers to leave Chang'an, also to give your three brothers a chance to prove their innocence. Ah Zong, over the years, you have experienced some major events in the battle against the Turks in Bingzhou, how come you can't even comprehend such a simple truth? ”
"Mother, Erchen is really anxious to arrest the culprit hidden behind Gao De, so he was ......confused for a while," Yang Guang was ashamed and ashamed, lying on the ground and unable to raise his head, muttered.
"After you leave Chang'an tomorrow, ask Er'er and Zhao'er's mother and son to move back to the palace to live, in this way, the mother can take care of her and her mother on weekdays. Well, An Ruoxi is now pregnant, so let her move to the palace with Er'er. In that case, what else can't you let go? ”
"Erchen respectfully obeys the order of the queen mother, and sends their mother and son into the palace early tomorrow morning, and then leaves Chang'an and returns to Bingzhou." Yang Guang lowered his head and said resignedly.
"Remember, when you return to the state this time, you are not allowed to ask about other matters, but only concentrate on guarding your Hebei Province and maintaining good relations with the Eastern Turks. Can you do it? Dugu Jialuo said uneasily.
Yang Guang went to Zhengyang Palace to resign to his mother, but because he happened to meet the eldest sister, he changed his attitude and took the initiative to accept the title of Princess Dasui, which inspired him to stay in Chang'an and find out the culprit behind the instigation of Gao De's book, but he didn't want to attract the queen mother's merciless reprimand. Although this corroborates An Ruoxi's judgment last night, it can't help but make Yang Guang feel a little disheartened: he has been looking forward to it for five years, and it is easy to look forward to an opportunity to continue to investigate the "Goose's Nest" and Guan Zizi, but he has a suspicious target, but he has to give up, how can he not make people hold their breath?
Although in the Zhengyang Palace, Yang Guang assured his mother in person that since the day he left Chang'an, he would obey his mother's instructions, never ask about anything including the clearance of Guan Zizai, and concentrate on guarding the northern border for the imperial court, but once he returned to the Jin Palace, he was still reluctant to give up the continued investigation of his intentions, so he secretly arranged for Zhang Xutuo to continue to stay in Chang'an after he left, and secretly monitored Xinyi Shitai and Sima Luo.
When Princess Xiao E heard that Yang Guang was going to leave for Bingzhou tomorrow, she was reluctant to do so, but she didn't ask much verbally, and only took the two maids of Chi Peony and Green Pothos to personally prepare the things that Yang Guang used and needed along the way, and was busy until it was dark, so that she could prepare all kinds of things she needed.
According to Yang Guang's original intention, he originally wanted to use the Liang Shiyan rebellion case obtained by Li Jingcha to persuade his father Yang Jian to allow him to stay in Chang'an, even if he couldn't stay in Chang'an, he had to return to Bingzhou with An Ruoxi, who knew that when he went to bid farewell to his mother today, the queen mother clearly asked An Ruoxi to stay in Chang'an Palace to give birth, because he thought that the queen mother was quite hostile to An Ruoxi, Yang Guang was very relieved that An Ruoxi stayed in Chang'an Palace to give birth, so he asked Princess Xiao Er to take care of An Ruoxi that night.
Xiao E knew that Yang Guang had a deep affection for An Ruoxi, and he and An Ruoxi had gotten along very well in Chang'an for nearly a year, so he agreed to Yang Guang.
The husband and wife have been together in Chang'an for only a month since Yang Guang returned to the court, and they have been together for only a month before and after.
