The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1045 Detaining Zhang Xingcheng

"That's right. Anyway, this case belongs to Dali Temple, so let's not steal the limelight from Dali Temple. If you have any news, just submit it to Dali Temple." Fang Yiai smiled.

Fang Xuanling is an old fox, and Fang Yiai has learned [-]% of the time now, enough to be called a little fox.

Compared with the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Yiai's growth is very obvious.

Zhang Xingcheng's information was first pulled out from the secret room, and then they obtained the information they had inquired about in Minzhou from the chamber of commerce, and then scattered out of Jinyiwei to investigate Zhang Xingcheng's past in Chang'an City.

Really let Jin Yiwei find out some clues.

Zhang Xingcheng, whose name is Deli, was born in Yifeng, Dingzhou. He served as Yuanwailang in the former Sui Dynasty, and later served as Minister of Zheng Guodu. .

When the official position was fulfilled, he was dispatched to King Jin to assist King Jin in governing Minzhou. During his stay in Minzhou, he sent people to connect caravans to his hometown Yifeng, Dingzhou many times to deliver things. He himself and some of his attendants, no one will know.

In three years, it would be fine to send people back to their hometown once or twice, but this time is probably too much.

Whether it was Fang Yiai or Marshal Zhao, they could see inappropriateness from these frequent times.

"Marshal, what do you think Xingcheng hid in this caravan and transported to his hometown?" Fang Yiai asked.

Marshal Zhao shook his head: "I don't know, but it's not difficult to know. Let Jin Yiwei go to his hometown and you will know? Zhang Xingcheng has done things in Chang'an before, and he will not be in his hometown. It’s nameless, we’ll find out when we check.”

"That's true." Fang Yiai smiled and said, "But there is another question, should we let our people go? Or should we report it to Dali Temple so that Dali Temple can send people there?"

"Let our people go to find out the way first, and the ancestral businessman intuitively told me that there is something wrong here." Marshal Zhao pursed his lips and smiled.

"Okay!" Fang Yiai responded with a smile.

Since there is a good thing in it, naturally the fat and water will not flow into the fields of outsiders, this piece will work, but they sent it here eagerly from Dali Temple. If there is any treasure unearthed, it has nothing to do with Dali Temple.

It was Zhang Xingcheng who offended, not King Jin and His Majesty's Queen's family, and if Zhang Xingcheng was offended, he would be offended, what else could cause trouble?

It is shameless for everyone to push the wall down, but in such a world, no one can be more elegant than the other.

Soon, a group of Jin Yiwei left Shenhou Mansion on fast horses and ran towards Suzaku Gate.

"What's going to happen to Chang'an?" The people who saw Jin Yiwei riding out of the city on a fast horse couldn't help but guess in their hearts.

The last time I saw Jin Yiwei, the aristocratic families in Chang'an City were making noise.

Although Jin Yiwei was sent out, the people in the cell should be interrogated.

Fang Yiai and Marshal Zhao personally came to meet Zhang Xingcheng in the cell.

Zhang Xingcheng, who was in the cell, saw the two of them, and smiled: "Ms. Zhang just entered the cell of the Shenhou Mansion, and the two of you can't wait to come here?"

Zhang Xingcheng had only been locked in this cell for a day, and he thought that Fang Yiai would let him hang out for a while before interrogating him.

But I didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Come so quickly, I must have doubts in my heart and want Mr. Zhang to clarify my doubts." Fang Yiai laughed.

"Oh? Let's hear it." Zhang Xingcheng looked at Fang Yiai with great interest.

Zhang Xingcheng is old, 58 years old, a veteran of the two dynasties of the Tang Dynasty, if the experience of the Sui Dynasty is added, he is a veteran of the three dynasties. It is embarrassing to end up like this today.

When he was in the Eastern Palace, Fang Yiai was just an ordinary young man in Zhang Xingcheng's eyes, if not unusual, then his father was Fang Xuanling.

"During the three years that Mr. Zhang was assisting His Highness King Jin in Minzhou, he kept transporting some things to his hometown Dingzhou. I would like to ask you what you transported." Fang Yi asked with a smile.

"As expected of the Shenhou Mansion, I noticed it so quickly." Zhang Xingcheng said with a smile: "However, since the people of the Shenhou Mansion are so capable, why don't you go to investigate yourself, but come to ask the old man?"

"The investigators have already set off, and they came to ask Mr. Zhang, hoping that Mr. Zhang will tell the younger generation everything else they know." Fang Yiai said.

Zhang Xingcheng shook his head: "After all, I am still old. Now it is the world of young people. When Sun Yaoting was assigned, the old man was still laughing at him behind his back. I didn't expect to realize that many things are not just physical. It's a matter of self, but a lack of human heart."

Zhang Xingcheng didn't answer Fang Yi'ai's words, instead he became emotional on his own.

"Now that the matter is up to now, it's okay to say it, it's the way out for me." Zhang Xingcheng said: "Regardless of whether His Royal Highness King Jin can succeed or not, I have to leave a way out for myself."

Fang Yiai nodded, and probably could have guessed that there would be nothing else except money and food.

Poor King Jin, he thought that the minister of the humerus was sincerely helping him, but he didn't realize it. He was also a duplicitous person, flattering King Jin for his own future, while leaving a way for himself.

If Xuan Shijing hadn't inserted a vat in it, Zhang Xingcheng would find a chance to return to his hometown in a hurry, and it would be enough to enjoy his old age peacefully.

Zhang Xingcheng has been in the officialdom for so long, so how can he fail to see through Li Zhi's thoughts? When he was in Chang'an, he could see that something was wrong with Li Zhi. Combining Li Zhi's behavior and his own speculation, he came to a conclusion. Such a conclusion, but His Majesty Li Er's will confirmed what Zhang Xingcheng thought in his heart.

After all, Li Zhi is the child of His Majesty and the Empress, so well-behaved, why was he transferred to a bitter cold place like Minzhou?

Your Majesty also favored His Highness King Jin before, so why was it different then?

Zhang Xingcheng wanted to inquire about Li Zhi's affairs, but Zhang Xingcheng couldn't help it. After all, Zhang Xingcheng already had his own channels to inquire about the news, whether he was in the East Palace or in the Jin Palace.

After leaving Chang'an and arriving in Minzhou, Zhang Xingcheng knew that the rest of his life was tied up with King Jin's faction.

He was not reconciled, if he was by Li Chengqian's side, he would be able to aspire to the position of prime minister if Li Chengqian was in place in the future, but now, that possibility is completely gone, unless Li Zhi takes the position.

But Zhang Xingcheng did not put all his hopes on Li Zhi. After the Sui and Tang dynasties, his thoughts were more like thieves.

For these princes and grandchildren, if you want to gain trust, you can only do it smoothly.
