Chapter 728 Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills

Huguang Wuchang Prefecture, Dongjun Governor's Office. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

People from the front door of the Grand Governor's Office came and went, and a large number of people who lobbyed Yang Yufan sent a message to him every day, hoping to make such a great contribution.

Xia Jianren was also among them. He had originally been determined to die, but now it seems that he should not die.

If Yang Yufan didn't want to rebel, he would have sent people to arrest these lobbyists long ago. Why would he allow the lobbyists to enter the mansion to lobby?

Thinking of this, Xia Jianren was energetic and sent a letter of worship again, asking the gatekeeper to report: "I came here specially from Shandong and brought an old friend's handwritten letter to the Grand Governor, please pass it on your behalf."

As he said that, he made up his mind and stuffed a bag of broken silver to the sergeant guarding the gate.

He really has money to make the devil push the mill. The soldier raised his eyebrows and said, "Did you really come from Shandong?"

Xia Jianren didn't know why the guard asked this, so he nodded affirmatively.

However, the other party confiscated the money, so he asked himself to register the information and carefully checked whether he was carrying sharp weapons and other objects, and brought himself into the governor's mansion in pain.

After a while, a tall general strode in, his eyes shining brightly, and he was extremely mighty. I think this person is Yang Yufan, the governor of the Eastern Army Governor's Office.

Yang Yufan's face was as cold as ice, and there was no expression. Xia Jianren's heart couldn't help but thrust, feeling something was wrong.

Yang Yufan looked at him carefully and said, "Do you come from Shandong? What's the matter?"

Xia Jianren suddenly woke up and quickly saluted and said, "Governor Yang is well, the villain is Xia Jianren, a student from Shandong. He came to Wuchang Prefecture under the order of his teacher. If there are any secret matters, please report it to the Governor."

"Oh? Say it with ease."

Xia Jianren did not dare to neglect, so he quickly pulled a corner from the cotton coat, carefully pulled out a letter and submitted it to him and said, "This is the teacher's handwritten letter, please ask the Grand Commander to take a look."

Yang Yufan took the letter, glanced and praised: "Well, the handwriting is good!"

He looked at the content seriously and gradually showed a look of surprise on his face.

The content of the letter starts from the Jisi change in the second year of Chongzhen. His father Yang Zhaoji talks about the battle of Yongping. He talks about Emperor Chongzhen's kindness to the Yang family, and then talks about his future today...

Yang Yufan frowned and said, "Who is your teacher? Why do you tell me about this to the governor?"

Xia Jianren said nervously: "The teacher is a fellow villager of the Grand Governor. He has always admired the reputation of the Grand Governor and wanted to talk to you about a future."

Yang Yufan smiled, he chuckled and said, "The future of this governor is given by the emperor. Who is your teacher? How dare you talk to me about your future?"

Xia Jianren looked around and saw several personal soldiers behind him, so he said, "Please ask the Grand Governor to retreat."

Yang Yufan also wanted to know what material this guy was about to shake out, so he waved his hand and retreated.

Xia Jianren then said: "When it comes to future, the generals of the Tianwu Army, such as Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong, were both generals like the Grand Commander, but now they have been granted the title of Duke, but the Grand Commander is still the Earl."

Seeing that Yang Yufan's expression was not changed, he continued: "Cao Bianjiao even went from being a gangster to a duke. Whenever there was a war, the prince would bring his troops from the Tianwu Army to fight, but the only general of the Grand Commander stayed in Luzhou Prefecture and Fengyang Prefecture..."

As he listened, cold sweat appeared on Yang Yufan's forehead. He stabilized his complex mood and said coldly: "Do your teacher want to instigate the Grand Governor?"

Seeing him like this, Xia Jianren felt a little relieved and thought that the teacher was really a god, and he knew Yang Yufan clearly.

"There is no way to instigate the rebellion, but I hope that the Grand Governor will turn to the dark and continue to support Emperor Chongzhen!"

Yang Yufan's face darkened and glared: "I haven't even told anyone your teacher. I want to incite the governor to raise the flag and rebel in a few words. Do you and your teacher think I am a three-year-old child?"

Xia Jianren said: "Have the Grand Governor heard of those rumors that Emperor Tianwu forced his father to usurp the throne..."

Yang Yufan raised his eyebrows: "Is it also written by your teacher?"

“That’s right!”

"Who is your teacher?"

"The teacher's pen name is Sun Laoyuan, and his real name is Shu Guren. He cannot be informed for the time being."

Yang Yufan was faintly excited. The rumor was spreading too widely. I heard that the Dongchang and Jinyiwei had not yet captured the main culprit who spread the rumors.

That guy is so capable of hiding it. If he can catch it, he may not be a great achievement.

But if this person is taken down now, the culprit will hear the news and will immediately run away. If this guy doesn't say a word, he will be in vain.

After a little thought, Yang Yufan continued to start the fishing plan.

Seeing that he was silent, Xia Jianren continued to encourage him, "Grandmaster, now the assassination of the tyrant is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

When Emperor Chengzu was in trouble, how many generals of Emperor Jianwen abandoned the secret and turned to the light, you should be very clear! As for the rewards of titles, I believe that Guilin has sent someone to give you conditions."

Yang Yufan nodded silently. Recently, not only King Jingjiang sent envoys to lobby, but King Jin had already secretly sent people to give gifts and offered conditions, and they all agreed to the position of Duke of the State.

Xia Jianren continued: "Think about Emperor Chongzhen's long-enter to the Yang family. He was usurped the throne at such a young age. As a loyal and kind-hearted general, don't you feel any guilt at all?"

"Besides, the tyrant of Tianwu will not trust you. The reorganized Five Army Governor's Office will place you in Huguang in the middle. The four surrounding Governor's Offices are all from Tianwu, just to guard against you, the Grand Governor!"

After a long time, Yang Yufan sighed and said, "When Emperor Tianwu was the crown prince, he established the Military Affairs Department and pulled me into it. However, after he ascended the throne, he did not appoint me as the Military Affairs Minister..."

Xia Jianren lowered his head and listened carefully. When he looked up, he found that Yang Yufan was actually crying!

Yang Yufan's face turned pale and his eyes began to dissipate, and he said, "Some time ago, someone came to persuade me to raise an army like you. Anyway, I believed him. However, he was captured by my subordinates as soon as he left, and he also found the secret order of Emperor Tianwu from him. He was actually a spy sent by the Jinyiwei to test me!"

After saying that, Yang Yufan slowly retreated to the side and sat down, burying his face deep between his arms, as if suppressing great pain, his whole body twitched from time to time, and murmured in his mouth: "The new emperor always refused to believe me!"

Xia Jianren was shocked. It turned out that the Grand Governor had such a secret matter. That dog emperor was too much! He was just a complete tyrant!

He stepped forward and comforted: "Please be relieved. The Holy Lord Emperor Chongzhen will never do this. His Jinyiwei is all open and upright!"

Yang Yufan slowly raised his head, a trace of hope flashed in his eyes, and said, "My Yang family is a long-loving emperor of Emperor Chongzhen. This is a loyal and kind-hearted descendant. He respects Feng Lie of his ancestors, but I can't believe others. This is a matter of losing my head. It's related to the names of the entire Yang family!"

Xia Jianren stared at Yang Yufan's face, wanting to see if this guy was acting.

However, he saw sincerity on this face with tears, and the vicissitudes of life seemed to hide endless worries...

Xia Jianren was moved, and he sighed and asked, "Once I say the teacher's name, he will be in danger."

Yang Yufan sneered and said, "Dangerous? You and I are here to discuss major issues together. Who is not dangerous? The 100,000 Tianwu Army is in Zhili. I will take the charity flag here and they will arrive in an instant. I can't even get out of Huguang. You should have heard of the combat power of Tianwu Army. Could it be that I am not dangerous?!"

Xia Jianren said nothing. Although Yang Yufan's words touched him, he wanted to tell him, but he forced himself to hold it back.

He made a poisonous oath in front of Sun Zhixie, and once he exposed his teacher's name, he would be punished by the punishment of dismemberment of five horses in the future.

Yang Yufan stood up and said slowly: "Since you don't want to say it, that's all."

He greeted the personal guards outside the door and said, "Come here, prepare a carriage for Mr. Xia, and send him away overnight. Never let the people of the Jinyiwei find it!"

After saying that, Yang Yufan was about to go out.

Xia Jianren was stunned for a moment and felt a sense of sincerity.

Seeing that Yang Yufan was about to leave, he suddenly shouted: "Governor-in-chief, wait!"

"Oh? Do you have anything else to say?" Yang Yufan asked.

Xia Jianren stared at Yang Yufan with his eyes. After a while, he saw that there was no strange color in his eyes, and he had no urgent desire to know, so he leaned closer and whispered: "My teacher is Sun Zhixue, Zichuan County, Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province. I hope the Grand Commander will keep the secret..."

"must!"

Yang Yufan responded and ordered someone to take the rumor and unofficial history written by Sun Zhixie, and compare the handwriting...

After a long time, Yang Yufan laughed, and suddenly his face darkened, and he ordered: "Come on, take down this thief!"

"yes!"

Several personal guards pressed Xia Jianren down and tied him up in a blink of an eye.

Xia Jianren was stunned for a long time, and immediately became angry and furious. He shouted loudly: "Yang Yufan, you are despicable and shameless! God will punish you and prevent you from reincarnation forever!"

Yang Yufan took out his handkerchief, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and waved his hand casually: "Take it to the people from the East Factory and take it to Nanjing!"

Soon, Yang Yufan's memorial was sent straight to the Forbidden City.

In the evening, Yang Yufan met with an envoy sent by King Jingjiang and others, and expressed his agreement to surrender to paralyze the rebels.

On the second day, Yang Yufan personally led 5,000 cavalry to launch a sudden attack, defeating the 30,000 vanguard army of King Jingjiang with a thunder and no hurry to cover up the bell. Yan Tianfeng, the left and right vanguards of the rebels, and Fan Youxian were killed on the spot.
