Chapter VIII The Disaster of Filial Piety

Piao Tianzi    Chapter 8: The Storm of Mourning

Yang Yuanqing appeared in front of the spiritual shed in a mourning uniform. Thirty or forty children of the Yang family blocked the spiritual shed, staring at him with vigilance, gathered into a human wall, and prevented him from entering. Yang Yuanqing was not in a hurry. He patiently waited for the important figures of the Yang family to appear. (《》彩7*

"What are you doing?"

Yang Xuanzhao quickly walked out of the mansion gate. He ran down the steps, pulled his two sons out of the human wall, and shouted sternly to the other children of the Yang Mansion: "Yuan Qing has been back from all the way to worship his grandfather. Why should you stop him? Why don't you get out of here!"

Yang Xun, the eldest grandson of Yang An, stepped forward to salute his uncle, pointed at Yang Yuanqing and said, "When you say that the third uncle, there was a decision at the family meeting that this person was not allowed to participate in the funeral of the head of the family. This person has been removed from his ancestral home. We followed the family decision and stopped him from entering, and there was no fault."

Yang Xuanzhuo had to say something else, but Yang Yuanqing waved his hand to stop him, "Don't say anything else, I know it in my heart!"

Yang Yuanqing stepped forward and bowed and said, "I am not here to pay my condolences as a child of the Yang family. I am the chief supervisor of Fengzhou, the earl of Dali County, and the third department of Kaifuyi. Is it okay to come to pay my condolences in this capacity?"

"You can pay your condolences, but please take off your mourning clothes!" Yang Yue walked out of the spirit shed.

He looked at Yang Yuanqing coldly and said, "If General Manager Yang wants to worship the priest, the Yang Mansion will certainly welcome him, but we hope General Manager Yang will come to worship in his regular clothes."

Seeing that his uncle was mean, Yang Xuanzhuo couldn't help but plead with love: "My father liked Yuan Qing the most when he was alive, and he was obsessed with Yuan Qing at the moment of death. We should respect his father's last wish and let Yuan Qing worship the spirit of his grandfather so that his father's spirit in heaven can rest in peace. Uncle, please let Yuan Qing enter!"

At this time, Yang Xuangan walked out and looked at his son with complicated eyes. Among the three sons, Yuanqing was the most promising. He was only eighteen years old and was appointed as the chief supervisor of Yizhou, the Count, Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and was famous all over the world. Unfortunately, the relationship between this son and him had deteriorated. He was named father and son, but he had already traveled with him.

Although Yang Xuangan did not want to see Yang Yuanqing at this time, he also knew that he could not avoid some things and would have to face them sooner or later. Holy Temple.com

He slowly walked forward and said to Yang Yuanqing in a deep voice: "Yuanqing, go to the ancestral temple to confess your guilt! I will convince the clan members to let you return to the clan."

Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "I'm just here to worship my grandfather's spirit today to fulfill my filial piety. I have no plans for anything else."

"Then don't think about it!"

Yang Yue stared at Yang Yuanqing fiercely and said, "No matter what identity you use, the Yang Mansion will not welcome you. You go! Don't appear here again."

Even though Yang Yuanqing didn't want to cause trouble in front of his grandfather's monastery, he still couldn't help but have an attack.

"Grandfather died at the age of 62. Why have you ever thought about it? If his grandfather resigned from office five years ago and returned home, he would have lived to be seventy or even eighty years old. But he did not resign. Is it because of your incompetence that you made your grandfather unable to rest assured, so that he worked hard to die for the family. But as soon as he passed away, the foundation he laid for you for his hard work was destroyed by you. There are no Yang family among the seven ministers in the cabinet. How can you be worthy of your dead grandfather? How do you explain to him?"

Yang Yuanqing's anger reached the spiritual shed, and Yu Shiji stood behind the door and secretly looked out through the crack of the curtain. He could hear Yang Yuanqing's words clearly. He thought to himself, 'It seems that the Yang family is not all stupid, they are still clear-headed people, and they hit the nail on the head. It's a pity that Yang Xuangan and Yang Yue didn't understand why they refused them.'

It is indeed a trivial matter to transfer Yang Jun to Beijing or find an errand for Yang Rong. Although Yang Su is dead, Yang Yue is the inner-sergeant, his immediate superior, Yang Xuangan is the Minister of Rites and an important official of the court. He would not refuse the faces of these two people.

The reason why he refused was because he did not dare. This time, the Yang family actually fought against the emperor for the sake of the title of Duke of Chu, which angered the emperor. Although the emperor did not express his anger publicly and gave face to the Yang family, taking away the position of Yang Xuangan as an important official in the cabinet was enough to show the anger of the emperor. If he promoted Yang Jun without tactfully or gave Yang Rong the position, then he would not be able to continue as the leader of Cao Qigui.

Yu Shiji knew very well that he had done all the illegal acts that the saints could tolerate him. The reason why the saints could not violate the saints's saints. If he dared to help the Yang family's children, his new and old stakes would be settled together. Holy Temple.com

Yu Shiji dared not tell Yang Jiaming that he thought the Yang family could understand the subtleties, but in fact, the Yang family did not realize that a concubine who was driven out of the Yang family could see through and understand.

Yu Shiji's eyes rolled and he had a certain plan in his mind. He needed to add some oil in the middle to make their conflicts deeper and their confrontation more intense. He must not let Yang Yuanqing return to the Yang family again.

He immediately took the curtain and walked out and shouted loudly: "Yang Yuanqing, do you dare to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors like this? You have your father and your uncle here, and you dare to scold them in person. You are an unfilial son, and you have no filial face. What kind of face do you have in the world? If you still have a little conscience, you will immediately kneel down and apologize to your father and uncle!"

Yang Yuanqing's anger had already made the Yang family's children indignant, and made Yang Yue and Yang Xuangan's faces turn blue, especially Yang Xuangan. The failure to choose Cao Qigui has always made him depressed, which is a taboo in his heart. No one dared to mention this in front of him. But Yang Yuanqing opened his bloody wound in front of so many tribesmen, making him unable to bear his face. In addition, Yu Shiji was provoking in the middle, Yang Xuangan became more angry. He was angry and roared: "Beast, do you dare to talk to me like this?"

At this time, Yang Yuanqing was no longer the young Sheng Yong who was full of energy two years ago. He had a little more rationality in his heart. He knew that some things could not be done. If he did, he would be a reckless man and a fool. He was criticized by thousands of people. Because of his reputation, he would no longer have talented people to serve him, nor would there be a brave and brave future to join him.

After all, the Great Sui Dynasty was still a society that regarded the king as the heaven and filial piety as the land. He could confront the family and turn against him at the clan meeting, but he could not treat his father as well. Yang Yuanqing looked at Yu Shiji vigilantly, and he felt that this person's words were full of provocation.

Yang Yuanqing calmed down. He would not have face-to-face conflicts with his father Yang Xuangan, nor would he be caught by someone like Yu Shiji.

He smiled faintly and said, "Father, I have no intention of offending you. It's just that you don't know some things. You were elected for the first time two years ago. You were elected, but you may not know why you were elected. But I know very well that if you are willing to listen, we can make an appointment for a time and find a place. Let's talk calmly. I will tell you what happened back then, but not now. Now, someone is provoking the conflict between me and the Yang family with ulterior motives. I hope my father and other Yang family can understand this."

Yu Shiji cried out in a terrible voice. Yang Yuanqing actually saw through his provocation, but he would never admit it. He immediately shouted angrily: "Yang Yuanqing, no one should tolerate your unfilial piety. Put away your ignorance and arrogance. Don't think that everyone will be fooled by you?"

Although Yang Yue and Yang Xuangan were extremely angry, they were not stupid. Yang Yuanqing's reminder and Yu Shiji's extravagant explanation made them realize immediately. Yu Shiji was indeed provoking disagreement, and the two of them were both angry at Yu Shiji.

At this moment, a loud shout came from afar: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is here!"

Then another loud shout: "Princess Leping is here!"

Then a large group of horse-riding guards surrounded two gorgeous carriages and slowly drove forward one by one, stopped in front of them, and the car door opened. Two eunuchs helped Prince Yang Zhao out of the carriage, and the door of the second carriage was also opened. Princess Leping, Yang Lihua walked out of the inside.

Yang Yue, Yang Xuangan and Yu Shiji hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "I am attending the crown prince! Meeting with Princess Leping!"

"Three important officials are exempted from courtesy!"

Yang Zhao waved his hand at them with a smile, and his eyes fell on Yang Yuanqing again. Yang Yuanqing also stood ten steps away and bowed to him, "See Your Highness the Crown Prince! Join the Princess!"

Yang Lihua also saw Yang Yuanqing. Seeing that he was wearing mourning clothes and was obviously here to mourn his grandfather, she nodded to him and smiled knowingly. She said to Yang Yue and Yang Xuangan again: "Today I will come with His Royal Highness and the Crown Prince. I think about it and come to worship Yang Situ. Is it okay?"

Yang Xuangan hurriedly said: "The princess and the prince are here to worship the father of the empress. This is the honor of the Yang family. Your Highness invites you to come in! Please come in!"

Yang Lihua pointed at Yang Yuanqing and said, "The reason why we came to worship Yang Situ is because Yang Situ is the grandfather of General Manager Yang. Our first worship has already given the Yang family face, but we must also give General Manager Yang the face to worship his grandfather, so please ask Yuan Qing to accompany us in!"

Yang Zhao also said earnestly: "General Yang guards the border for the country and strives to protect the country of Sui. Whether it is the orphan, the princess, or even the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, they are grateful to General Yang. This time we come to mourn General Yang for mourning his grandfather, to some extent, the emperor's intention is the emperor. I hope the Yang family will consider the country and give General Yang enough respect, so that they will not disappoint the world because of the clan rules. Yang Neisha and Yang Shangshu, please let General Yang pay his grandfather's condolences!"

Although Yang Zhao's tone was soft, his words were very hard, just warning the Yang family not to use clan rules to fight against imperial power. Both Yang Yue and Yang Xuangan felt this huge pressure.

They looked at each other and looked at each other. Princess Leping and His Royal Highness put pressure on them at the same time, making them unable to refuse. They would give His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness the face to the prince and His Royal Highness, and offend the prince and the eldest princess at the same time for a small temporary family. The Yang family could not afford the consequences.

Yang Xuangan nodded and said to Yang Yuanqing: "Since this is what the prince and princess mean, go in and praise your grandfather for your filial piety! The Yang Mansion will not stop you."

"Thank you, Your Highness, and Your Highness, Your Highness,"

Yang Yuanqing was full of gratitude. Yang Lihua and the prince came to help him at a critical moment. He stepped forward and bowed and said, "Please, your highness!"

Yang Yuanqing lifted the curtain and took them into his grandfather's spirit shed. The other Yang family members wanted to follow in, but Yang Xuangan stopped them, "Let him accompany him alone!"

Yang Xuangan was very moved. He did not expect that Yuan Qing had such a great face that he could actually let Princess Leping and His Highness join forces to talk to him about his grandfather. Even Yang Xuangan could not do this, and no one in the Yang family could do it. Yuan Qing and his forces and connections had reached a level that they could not imagine.

Yang Xuangan also felt a deep regret in his heart. No wonder his grandfather always said that removing Yuan Qing from his ancestral home was the stupidest thing they did. He remembered that Princess Leping wrote three letters to Yang Yuanqing and forced the emperor to take back the imperial edict that had been issued. If Princess Leping was willing to speak for him, then his position of choosing Cao would not have been lost.

Yang Xuangan sighed a long time, his heart full of annoyance of driving Yuan Qing out of the house. He glanced at Yang Yue quickly and found that Yang Yue's eyes had become a little complicated, which was a feeling of inner loss.

In the spirit shed, Yang Yuanqing knelt down in front of his grandfather's spiritual throne. He kowtowed three times silently and inserted three incense sticks respectfully into the incense burner. His nose felt sore and he said tremblingly: "Grandfather, grandson is coming to visit you."
