God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 517 Little fish, take the bait

Facts have proved that Duhe's strategy is successful.

In less than a day, everyone in Chang'an City knew that Du He had a distant relative, Xiuer, and that Xiuer's husband was Yuchi Baolin, the son of Lord Wu. Walk……

The hatred of killing one's father and taking one's wife has been the most intolerable thing since ancient times.

Many people immediately applauded Yuchi Baolin.

On this day's Datang Newspaper, the headline on the front page was Yuan Xiu's story, and the author was unknown.

In fact, this story was written by Du He himself.

In the whole article, not a single word was mentioned about Wei Chi Baolin, it was all about how miserable Yuan Xiu lost his mother when he was a child, and later lived with his father, who knew that his father also died a few years ago, and his life was so miserable, it’s okay After marrying a good husband, I thought I could live a happy life from now on, but who would have thought that Dou Gongde took a fancy to her and forcibly took her away...

This story is full of loopholes, but people who can't stand gossip like it, especially the vernacular, which everyone can understand when read.

Most of the common people are kind, and they hate such miserable stories the most. For a while, the whole city of Chang'an cursed Dou Gongde, and by the way, the Dou clan of Tongzhou.

On the same day, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs sent people to Dream Group to bring Yuan Xiu back for interrogation.

It's a pity that all these people were blocked by Du He, and they didn't even see Yuan Xiu's face.

As a last resort, Li Daozong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and Wei Ting, Minister of Dali Temple, came to the Dream Group in person.

The two came to Banshan College in person and met Du He.

Wei Ting said earnestly: "Du He, Yuchi Baolin is still being imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple. Wu Guogong is eager to love his son, and his head is graying. If you want to release Yuchi Baolin as soon as possible, you need Yuan Xiu to testify in the court hall." All right, this matter is also His Majesty's intention."

Li Daozong said: "Boy of the Du family, we are old friends. If you can't trust Mr. Wei, can't you still trust the old man? I promise that I will never let that woman get hurt in the slightest."

Hearing this, Du He shook his head and said, "My lords, you should think about things more simply. Now, because of Yuan Xiu's appearance, the rumors in Chang'an City have only changed, but don't forget that the murder happened. In Tongzhou... Presumably this is what His Majesty meant, even if you take Yuan Xiu to interrogate now, so what? Can you stop the mouths of tens of thousands of people in Tongzhou?"

"This……"

"cannot!"

Both Wei Ting and Li Daozong shook their heads.

Du He smiled and said: "You two, I'm sorry, Yuan Xiu is still in my hands, and I can't let you take it away for the time being. Now Yuchi Baolin is being imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple, and I can't eat well or sleep well. This cousin is very worried, so she decided to go to Huguo Temple tomorrow morning to pray for Brother Yuchi."

Li Daozong and Wei Ting had no choice but to leave.

Back in the palace, the two hurriedly reported to Li Er.

The two thought that Li Er would be furious.

Unexpectedly, when Li Er heard this, he was surprisingly calm, "Hmph, this kid Du He is arbitrarily assertive, that's all, let him go."

"Ah..." Li Daozong was taken aback, "Your Majesty, but Yuan Xiu is the key witness."

"Du He is right. The most important thing right now is to stop the mouths of the people of the same state. I can't do this, you can't do it... But Du He can do it. Leave this matter to him Go." Li Er waved his hand and said.

Li Er felt a little angry.

In his heart, Li Er had already planned not to care about fame, and was ready to attack Dou Shi.

But now he seemed to understand Du He's plan.

That being the case, Li Er was going to give Du He a chance.

He also didn't want to bear the infamy of killing innocent people indiscriminately.

Li Daozong and Wei Ting looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed.

Even the Minister of Chinese and Military Affairs of the court can't do anything about it, but Du He can do it...that's strange.

……

"Miss Xiu'er is going to Huguo Temple to pray for Mr. Yuchi!"

"Good girl, good girl!"

"I have such a daughter in my life, what more can a husband ask for!"

Such discussions can be heard at any time in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City.

Under Du He's deliberate action, in less than half a day, more than half of the people in Chang'an City knew that Yuan Xiu was going to Huguo Temple tomorrow morning.

Quite a few commoners were idle, and they even expressed that they would go to Huguo Temple to see the excitement tomorrow.

……

Doufu.

Swish swish.

There were a total of twelve copies of Datang Xinbao, all of which were torn to pieces by Dou Xianren, a gloomy official official.

"It's unreasonable, it's really unreasonable. This article is clearly written by Du He. Hmph, I know all the literati in Chang'an City. I have never heard of a person named Anonymous." Dou Xianren roared angrily.

The man in black next to him said: "Master, the biggest trouble now is that Yuan Xiu, the Patriarch has sent a letter, and what Yuan Xiu said is true... In case His Majesty personally intervenes in this matter and listens to what Yuan Xiu said , then the fifth master may die in vain, we can't let Yuchi Baolin pay for his life."

Dou Xianren nodded: "You are right, you must not let Yuan Xiu be taken away by Dali Temple or the Ministry of Criminal Justice, hmph, I was worried about this at first, but I didn't expect that Du He, an arrogant man, would let Yuan Xiu go to protect the country Praying for blessings at the temple is simply a good opportunity created by heaven. Tomorrow is the date of Yuan Xiu's death... As long as Yuan Xiu dies, there will be no evidence of death at that time. The National Temple is in ambush, and as soon as Yuan Xiu appears, he will be killed on the spot."

The man in black was taken aback: "Master, I'm afraid this is Du He's trap. Do you still remember the lotus planting incident? Du He deliberately went to Huguo Temple to give lectures, attracting the Tubo people who stayed in Chang'an City. They were all killed in the Huguo Temple, and finally they were all killed by Du He, and they were buried in the pond of Huguo Temple to make fertilizer."

"Trap? It also depends on whether Du He has the strength..."

popping.

Dou Xianren clapped his hands.

A monk in robes walked in through the door.

This guy is about 40 years old, with a thin body and rolling eyes, and he is not a good person at first glance.

Dou Xianren introduced: "This is Master Baotian, who is the leader of the four great aristocrats of Huguo Temple. Master Baotian and I have been close friends for many years, and he can be regarded as a member of our Dou family. He sent the news just now, saying that Du He planted an ambush in Huguo Temple."

The upper seat is a person who is second only to the temple owner or abbot in a temple. There are four great upper seats in Huguo Temple, and Baotian is the head of the four great upper seats, with great power.

Master Baotian immediately stepped forward: "Amitabha, there is a young monk here, and I guarantee that Master Dou will achieve success tomorrow."

……

Time came to the second day.

Early in the morning, Du He ordered people to prepare chariots and horses, incense wax paper candles, etc., a total of five carriages, and he personally took Yuan Xiu to Huguo Temple.

When he first arrived at Huguo Temple, Du He was taken aback.

I saw crowds of people at the gate of Huguo Temple, more lively than going to the market.

On this cold day, the common people gathered together, talking and laughing, without feeling cold at all.

Seeing the carriage of Dream Group, everyone hurried out of the way.

"Miss Yuan, we support you!"

"it is good!"

"We're here to pray for you!"

"Good job!"

The simple and kind people shouted one after another.

In the carriage, Yuan Xiu was so excited that she shed tears.

Zhang Jian got into Du He's carriage and said in a low voice, "Master, it has been found out that at midnight last night, the gate of the Dou Mansion was opened, and a group of people left the Dou Mansion. The target was the Huguo Temple."

Du He smiled slightly: "Little fish, take the bait!"

Zhang Jian said with some concern: "Master, do you want to send more people? I'm afraid..."

"There's nothing to be afraid of. It's just Dou Xianren. I don't pay much attention to the Zhou Dou family, let alone Dou Xianren...everything is going according to plan. Don't forget, this Huguo Temple is our territory." Du He said confidently.

Zhang Jian nodded and got out of the carriage.

When the carriage arrived at the bottom of the steps, Du He took Yuan Xiu, and seven or eight other servants, carrying things for blessing, a total of twelve large boxes, up the steps, to the front of the mountain gate.

In front of the mountain gate, the boss of the Huguo Temple, Tanzong, had already brought a group of monks to greet him, and the specifications were much higher than those of the princes and nobles.

Who made Du He the honorary class leader of Huguo Temple, and his background is relatively big!
