Dali Temple was originally a government office that specialized in handling palace-related cases. During the Northern Song Dynasty, although Dali Temple still had an organizational structure, generally speaking, it was just an idle yamen, and there were almost no cases for them to investigate on weekdays.
But such a yamen is not something that ordinary people can just enter if they want to. If He Tong is imprisoned in Kaifeng Mansion Yamen, Yang Rong still has a way to immediately transfer him out and interrogate him again.
Being locked up in Dali Temple made Yang Rong feel a little helpless. But now that he knew about it, he definitely couldn't stand idly by. After all, it was definitely possible that this matter involved the person behind the assassination of Zhao Yuanxi.
"Chen Rui, you immediately arrange for two brothers to sneak into Dali Temple!" Yang Rong frowned, thought for a while, and then said to Chen Rui: "Let them find He Tong and protect him. Don't do anything." We must let him make any mistakes. Anyone who wants to secretly attack He Tong will be killed without mercy!"
Chen Rui responded, and Yang Rong then said to him: "After arranging things, you can enter the palace with me. This matter will inevitably have to trouble the emperor's decree."
"My lord is willing to save my general. From now on, Lu San is willing to tie a ring with grass and work as an ox and a horse for your lord!" After hearing that Yang Rong said that Chen Rui would send someone to Dali Temple to protect He Tong, the young man who had been loosened The man quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Yang Rong.
"Okay!" Yang Rong raised his hand towards Lu Sanxu and said to him: "You can be considered a loyal person. If your general can be safe, he will definitely thank you. I will send someone out later. The hospital will find a room for you, you can stay here and wait until your general comes out!"
After speaking, Yang Rong turned around and left the woodshed.
After walking out of the woodshed, Chen Rui immediately arranged for two soldiers from the Night Sword Battalion to sneak into Dali Temple and protect He Tong. Then Yang Rong took Chen Rui and more than a dozen soldiers from the Night Sword Battalion on horseback and headed straight towards the palace. went.
Ten days have passed since Song Taizong set a deadline for him, and the mastermind behind the assassination of Zhao Yuanxi has not yet surfaced.
Not only Yang Rong was anxious, but even Song Taizong was a little out of control.
When he met Song Taizong, Song Taizong was reading in Qinde Hall. Seeing Yang Rong, he frowned slightly and asked Yang Rong: "Yang Aiqing came to see me, but there are clues to the case?"
"Report to Your Majesty!" Yang Rong bowed slightly, clasped his fists, and said to Song Taizong: "I'm sorry, although the mastermind behind the scenes has not yet come to light, things have become somewhat clear."
"The matter has not been investigated clearly, why do you come to see me again?" Hearing that the mastermind behind the scenes has not been found, Song Taizong frowned slightly and said to Yang Rong: "Yang Aiqing should investigate the matter clearly and come to see me again."
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that Song Taizong was a bit unhappy, Yang Rong quickly said to him: "Your Majesty has given me the authority to deal with things cheaply, but there are some places that I still can't go to."
Hearing what he said, Song Taizong put down the book in his hand, sat up straight, and asked him: "In this Tokyo city, besides my harem, where else can you go?"
"Dali Temple!" Yang Rong bowed, took out the piece of silk cloth from his arms, held it with both hands, and handed it to Song Taizong.
The eunuch on the side took the silk cloth and passed it to Song Taizong.
Opening the silk cloth, Song Taizong frowned tightly, read the words written on it carefully, slapped the table with his hand, and cursed coldly: "What a bunch of rebellious officials and traitors, they actually want to destroy Take away my great Song Dynasty!"
"The descendants of the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty are also in your home now!" Yang Rong clasped his hands in his fists, stood with a bow, and said to Song Taizong: "But I am very suspicious of her identity, and I also got a clue. We have already ordered people to investigate, and I think it will take less than two days to find out everything."
"Southern Tang! Hum!" Song Taizong snorted twice, as if he was talking to Yang Rong, and seemed to be talking to himself: "I didn't expect that the little Southern Tang would actually have such a problem. An ordinary person. He can actually have so many informants in the heart of my Da Song Dynasty."
"Yang Rong, you immediately take my imperial edict to Dali Temple. Call all the prisoners you need. In addition, Lu Hanyun, I don't want to tolerate him anymore, let him be dealt with by me!" Song Taizong put the silk cloth He put it on the table and signaled the eunuch to return it to Yang Rong. Then he waved his hand to Yang Rong and said to him: "You go down first. I am a little tired and want to rest for a while."
"I retire!" Yang Rong took the silk cloth, clasped his fists in his hands, and exited the Qinde Hall.
After a while, an imperial edict was issued, requiring Yang Rong to go to Dali Temple immediately to retrieve the prisoners. After receiving the imperial edict, Yang Rong hurriedly led people to Dali Temple without delaying for a moment.
When I arrived at the gate of Dali Temple, I saw that the main entrance of Dali Temple was closed tightly.?It seems that Yang Rong knew that Yang Rong was going to bring someone here and deliberately turned him away.
"Knock on the door!" Standing at the door of Dali Temple, Yang Rong muttered to the soldiers on the side. A soldier from the Night Guard Camp quickly stepped forward, raised his hand and knocked hard on the door.
After a while, a person shouted from Dali Temple: "Important matters are being dealt with in the Yamen, no one is allowed to disturb us at this time!"
"Yang Rong, the military envoy of the Xinning Army, has come to seize prisoners according to the imperial decree. Anyone who obstructs will be killed without mercy!" Yang Rong held the imperial decree in one hand and shouted towards Dali Temple.
When the people inside heard that it was an imperial edict asking Yang Rong to extract prisoners, they dared not delay at all, so they quickly opened the door and let Yang Rong and others in.
"Why is it closed?" After entering Dali Temple, Yang Rong frowned and asked the official who opened the door: "Where is the temple minister?"
"Speak to your Majesty!" He glanced at the imperial edict in Yang Rong's hand, and the Yamen official bowed deeply and replied: "Just now someone sneaked into the Yamen, and now the adults are organizing manpower to arrest them, so they ordered the door to be closed tightly. Don¡¯t let the thief escape.¡±
"Where?" Yang Rong asked coldly, turning to look at the yamen officer.
"In the cell!" The officer bowed in response, and then said to Yang Rong: "The two thieves are very fierce. They have killed more than ten officers and soldiers now."
"Thieves?" Hearing the officer say that there were two thieves, Yang Rong immediately understood that they must be the two soldiers from the Yeji camp sent by Chen Rui. He sneered and said to the officer: "Hurry up and bring them with you." I'll go ahead and I, the general, will meet the two thieves."
The officer responded and quickly led Yang Rong and others towards the cell.
Arriving at the door of the cell, Yang Rong found that the prison in Dali Temple was already surrounded by a group of officers, soldiers and yamen officials. The officials in the yamen were also busy there, and the officers and soldiers rushed into the cell. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
