Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

Wen Tao was full of doubts, and murmured: "Me?"

"Exactly." Yang Jilang said, "Your servant once had a relationship with the young master, do you still remember?"

Yang Ji has already changed Wen Tao's title from "Taoist" to "Young Master".Wen Tao watched Yang Ji's face carefully, and suddenly realized: "You are that person, that buddy of Rong Guxuan!" Wen Tao finally remembered, the first time he saw Yang Ji at the Dragon Boat Festival, he felt familiar, It turned out that Rong Guxuan had seen him when he helped Mr. Pu fetch the scroll.

"That's right, Rong Guxuan was opened by slaves, and slaves seldom go there on weekdays." Yang Jidao, "And the reason why the young master saw slaves in Rong Guxuan that day was because slaves wanted to confirm one thing, one thing The master told the servant what the servant could not believe."

"What's the matter?" Li Shu asked.

Yang Ji slowly pulled out a scroll from his sleeve and spread it out bit by bit.It was a painting of a beautiful girl from the Western Regions, with high browbones and a straight nose.The signature reads: My wife Adori.And a private seal of the former prince Li Huan.

Li Shu and Tang Wuyi looked at the painting, and then at Wen Tao, they both gasped, they were so, so alike!

Li Shu wondered why he felt deja vu when he saw Wen Tao twice, his facial features had the shadow of Li Huan, especially his eyes, round and round, as bright as stars.But his brow bone and bridge of nose carried the shadow of a barbarian, so he didn't recognize him twice.Now Aduoli's portrait is in front of him, and Wen Tao's brow bone and nose bridge are almost exactly the same as Aduoli's.

"Are you... are you, elder brother's child?" Li Shu's voice trembled a little. He never thought that elder brother actually left blood in this world, and at this very moment, he was standing in front of him!

Wen Tao is still very confused, he was here to help Tang Wuyi solve the case, now looking at the portrait of Aduo Li, he has to admit that he looks very similar to the girl in the painting.

"That's right, Mr. Wen is the son of the former crown prince and Princess Uighur." Yang Ji said, "Mr. Pu planned all these things precisely because of Mr. Wen."

"But elder brother didn't marry Princess Uighur, how could...?" Li Shu was puzzled.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Mr. Pu told the slaves that the reason why the former prince fell out of favor with the late emperor was not because he did not want to hand over the Uighur princess. The former prince was benevolent. In order to keep the Uighur princess and prevent her from leaving the East Palace, he worshiped heaven and earth with her in private. According to the law, women who have served the prince are not allowed to leave the palace for life. The prince thought that by doing so, the Uighur princess could be kept. Later, the Uighur princess became pregnant, and the matter could no longer be hidden. The late emperor knew Afterwards, she was furious and ordered someone to give her abortion pills, and the prince was convicted because of this, and he was imprisoned in the East Palace ever since."

Li Shu took a deep breath, it turned out that there were so many inside stories that he didn't know back then, he asked: "Since he took abortion pills, this child..." He pointed at Wen Tao, hesitating to speak.

"The slave doesn't know, neither does Mr. Pu." Yang Ji replied frankly, "But Mr. Pu is very sure. He once saw the Uighur princess with his own eyes. He said that Mr. Wen must be the son of the two. He later also investigated privately. It was found that Mr. Wen had no father and no mother. He was adopted by the elders of Kunlun since he was a child. There was no mistake. The slave didn’t believe it at first, so Mr. Pu gave the portrait of the princess painted by the former prince to the slave, and sent Mr. Wen to Rongguxuan in Kyoto. As soon as I saw you, I knew what Mr. Pu said was true, and I heard that you are indeed of the blood of the former prince!"

"So that's it!" Tang Wuyi interrupted suddenly, "That's why King Yan tried to harm you again and again, first at the inn, his target was actually you, and just now, King Yan knew your identity!"

"Third brother, he..." Li Shu narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, "Yes, the third brother was young and had been raised by his mother's side all the time. He should have the opportunity to meet the Uighur princess. Anyone who has met her will be able to see her again. You must be able to recognize it."

"So, Mr. Pu arranged all this for me after seeing me?" Wen Tao finally understood at this moment.Originally, Mr. Pu's heart was ashamed after the death of the first prince. Even if he knew what King Yan had done, even if he knew that Tang Jingxiao shot and killed the first prince, he did not choose to take revenge.He may have been entangled, melancholy, and tortured by this matter every night. Wen Tao didn't know why Mr. Pu didn't do anything. Maybe it was the peace and prosperity created by Li Shu that made him see the return of all people that he and Li Huan had longed for back then; maybe It was Tang Jingxiao who was still fighting everywhere after becoming the great general of magic strategy, and did not fall into the prestige of the Great Zhou; perhaps he accepted Tang Wuyi as a student when he was at a loss, and his sincere eyes might remind him of the first time. The first time I saw Li Huan...

But all of this was wiped out the moment Mr. Pu saw Wen Tao. The similar eyebrows of Wen Tao and Li Huan were like a switch, tearing apart the things he had tried to heal and forget for more than ten years.The old hatred had never died out, and he had never forgiven Li Xu and Tang Jingxiao.Even if Li Xu is already the prime minister praised by tens of thousands of people in the court, he can't forgive him for designing Li Huan to be charged with treason and die unjustly; Forgive him for betraying the Tang family, and shot Li Huan to death in the hall.The moment he saw Wen Tao, he had already had an idea, he wanted to get back everything he owed Li Huan, and returned it to his son with both hands.

He started planning half a year ago, secretly informed Yang Ji as an internal response, and sent Tang Wuyi and Wen Tao to the capital to pick up paintings a few days before the Dragon Boat Festival. The old things are brought out.He was sure that Tang Wuyi would investigate to the end, and at the moment everything was revealed, Yang Ji dealt a fatal blow and returned what originally belonged to Li Huan to Wen Tao.

"Your Majesty, this servant has absolutely no intention of harming His Majesty. This is really a way of repaying your kindness. This is something that Mr. Pu has repeatedly entrusted to this servant. As long as Your Majesty stamps the imperial seal on this edict, this servant will immediately offer the antidote. This servant is about to There is no deceit in death." Yang Ji touched his head to the ground, and presented an imperial edict without a jade seal with both hands.

"By God, the emperor's edict said: Li Huan, the eldest brother of the emperor, is the first heir of the clan, with the utmost benevolence and filial piety. He was framed by the king of Yan, Li Xu, and died on the charge of conspiracy. The eldest brother left behind the eldest son Tao, who is handsome, diligent in learning, and talented, and he was made the crown prince to comfort the spirit of the eldest brother in heaven. Announce it to the world, so that everyone can hear about it."

Li Shu received the edict with mixed feelings.He has passed his thirties, he has only had two princesses, and he has not yet had a prince. Looking at Wen Tao in front of him, he is like his elder brother standing in front of him, with clear eyes and a smile in his eyes.He chuckled and said, "Yang Ji, you underestimate me. The throne belongs to the emperor brother. You have served me for many years, and you have to poison me to believe me?"

Yang Ji kowtowed and said: "The slave will die."

Li Shu took a deep breath, took the jade seal at hand, solemnly covered it, handed the edict to Yang Ji and said, "Now, you should trust me."

Yang Ji received the edict, with tears in his eyes, he took out a porcelain bottle, put his hands on Li Shu and said, "The antidote is inside. This slave will die without regret, and I can finally see Mr. Pu under the nine springs." , black blood flowed from his mouth, and died in obedience.
