Chapter 34 Letter from the Capital

At night, Li Mi was invited to the official house by Yang Xuangan. When he walked to the study, the little boy bowed and said, "Sir, please wait, I'll report to the master. The temple."

Li Mi grabbed the little boy, pointed to the study room, and asked in a low voice: "How is he in his mood?"

The little boy understood and smiled, "I was quite irritable in the afternoon and beat Uncle Xuan Jing who escaped, but at dusk I received two letters from the capital, I calmed down. Don't worry, the master is very calm now."

It turned out that Yang Xuanjing had already escaped. Li Mi felt relieved and asked curiously: "Who wrote the letter from the capital?"

"I don't know this, sir can ask the master directly."

Li Mi nodded, "You go!"

The little boy went in and reported, and came out for a moment and said, "Sir, Master, please come in."

Li Mi tidi walked into Yang Xuangan's study room with her clothes.

The study was very warm, and a pot of charcoal was burning vigorously. Yang Xuangan sat next to the brazier and remained silent, very calm, completely different from the rage at noon.

"Li Mi meets the envoy."

"Please sit down by the Lord of Dharma!"

Yang Xuangan's tone was very calm, like a person who was thinking deeply. Li Mi sat down and Shutong served them tea.

Yang Xuangan looked at him and asked lightly: "Actually, the Master of Dharma understands it in his heart, right!"

Li Mi was stunned, "What is Ming Gong's point of view?"

"Zhang Xutuo's cross-border bandit suppression."

Li Mi was speechless for a while, and gradually, a wry smile appeared on his face, "Duke Ming also figured it out?"

Yang Xuangan shook his head, "I didn't think it through, but someone told me."

He took out two letters and said with a smile: "These are two letters I received in the evening. One was sent by Li Zixiong and the other was sent by Hu Sizheng. Li Zixiong was my father's old subordinate and served as the General of the Right Wuhou. He was removed from the name of the Battle of Goryeo. Hu Sizheng was my close friend and one of the most trusted people of the emperor today. He told me that the suggestion of cross-border bandit suppression was proposed by Yuanqing. The temple."

Speaking of this, Yang Xuangan smiled miserably, "I gave birth to a good son, but he was so clever. He plotted against his father. Master, do you admire him?"

Li Mi was silent. He heard that Changsheng Island on Juyezawa was attacked by Zhang Xutuo's troops, so he realized that there was something wrong with it. The Changsheng Island warehouse was extremely secret. How could Zhang Xutuo know? This must be leaked by someone inside, and Zhang Xutuo was Yang Yuanqing's master, so the answer was obvious.

"After all, there is no evidence about this matter, and it may have nothing to do with Yuan Qing."

“No evidence?”

Yang Xuangan sneered, "I have interrogated Jishan just now, Jishan admits that Wei'er had come two months ago and he leaked some information to Wei'er."

Li Mi had nothing to say, he didn't know what to say, this was Yang Xuangan's family matter, and it was difficult for him to get involved too deeply.

Yang Xuan stood up and walked a few steps behind his hands, sighed softly, "Actually, I admire Yuan Qing very much. If Yuan Qing can help me, why worry about the world being in trouble? Unfortunately, I was confused in the past, listened to women's words and threw away such a good son. It would be too late for me to regret it!"

Li Mi was silent for a while and said, "It's not impossible for Ming Gong to use Yuan Qing, but there is one thing Ming Gong must explain clearly."

"What's the matter?" Yang Xuangan asked back.

Li Mi said slowly: "If Ming Duke won the world, who will be the crown prince? Yang Jun or Yuan Qing?"

Yang Xuangan shook his head without any hesitation, "It's impossible that it is Yuan Qing, the eldest son is the throne. This is not something that can be discussed. I can only grant Yuan Qing the real power king."

Li Mi sighed in her heart that she could not compromise on the most critical matter. It seemed that Yuan Qing could not join forces with his father. With Yang Yuanqing's status and talent, how could he be willing to be inferior to Yang Jun? Isn't he rebelling from the Yang family because of this?

Li Mi pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, Yuan Qing had no malicious intentions towards Ming Gong. His intention was very clear, just to delay Ming Gong's uprising. Maybe he was not ready yet. Once Ming Gong's uprising, it would have a great impact on him. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple."

Yang Xuangan sighed for a while, "I am his biological father. Can't he write a letter? If we insist on using this kind of power-making method, we father and son actually distrust each other to this extent. How can we feel for each other!"

Li Mi really had nothing to say about the indifference between their father and son. After a moment, he turned the topic away, "What should Gong Ming do next?"

Yang Xuangan said: "As the saying goes, there will be gains when you lose. Although I lost 15,000 troops and more than 100,000 stones of food, I received help from Hu Sizheng. Li Zixiong also revealed that he was willing to help me. These two people will be a great help to me. As for what to do next, I think it should be a wait-and-see. Hu Sizheng also hinted me that the Guanlong nobles will have abnormal movements next year, and that should be my chance."

Not far from Yang Xuanganguan House is a three-acre house. This is Yang Xuanjing's house. Yang Xuanjing is Yang Shen's eldest son and an important figure in the Yang family. He was once awarded the position of Yitong, but was dismissed with other Yang family children in the third year of Daye.

Yang Xuanjing grew up in wealth since childhood. He first learned martial arts, but failed to learn martial arts and changed to literature. He did not make any progress in learning literature. However, he mingled with a group of playboys, drank wine, and visited brothels, and gradually became famous in the playboy circle in the capital.

As he got older, Yang Xuanjing slowly calmed down, but his arrogant temper could not be changed. Especially when his father Yang Shen took control of the financial power of the Yang family, he became even more arrogant and forced Yang Xuangan to give him the important task. Yang Xuangan had no choice but to give him the power to recruit troops in Liangshan.

However, Yang Xuanjing was not only capable of limited, but could not control 15,000 people, but was also afraid of death. When he heard Zhang Xutuo's army coming, he escaped from the army, causing 15,000 troops to fall into chaos and was defeated by Zhang Xutuo's three thousand cavalry.

Yang Xuanjing lay on the bed, screaming like a pig. Yang Xuan felt that he was incompetent and ordered him to be beaten fifty, which made Yang Xuanjing's skin burst into tears and was in great pain.

At this time, his son Yang Ling walked in with a bowl of medicine.

"Father, it's time to take medicine!"

Yang Ling held his father and carefully fed him the medicine. Yang Xuanjing was choked and coughed repeatedly, and the wound was pulled, causing him to feel so much pain.

After a while, he finally calmed down. His son wiped the sweat off his face. Yang Xuanjing gritted his teeth and said, "I worked hard to recruit soldiers and manage soldiers in the valley, but in the end I ended up like this. If it weren't for the sake of my father, I would have to sue him for rebellion to the court!"

His son Yang Ling was so scared that he waved his hand, "Father, you can't talk nonsense, you want to destroy the nine clans."

Yang Xuanjing lay down, and after a while, he said hatefully: "I know, so I endure it. I will not do anything for him anymore. In short, he doesn't apologize to me. I have no end with him, so he can't buy a piece of food!"

It is the fifth day of the 9th day of December, and the coldest moment of the year has passed, but the ice everywhere in Luoyang shows no signs of melting, the climate is still cold, and it is still time to go before the arrival of spring.

In the palace, Yuwen Shu hurriedly walked through Xuanzheng Hall Square under the guidance of two eunuchs and walked up the steps.

"General Yuwen, it's a bit slippery here, so be careful."

When he walked up the steps, an eunuch carefully reminded him that Yuwen Shu carefully stepped on the straw, and Li Zhongliang had been waiting for him on the steps for a long time.

"General Yuwen, the emperor has been waiting for a long time, please follow me."

The two walked towards the Imperial Study Room one by one and the other, and walked into the side hall. Li Zhongliang slowed down. Yuwen Shu walked to him and asked in a low voice, "How is that?"

Li Zhongliang narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Why does General Yuwen have no confidence in himself?"

Yuwen Shu said that Li Yuan was left behind in Taiyuan. He had been operating for nearly a month for this matter. He was very cautious and was not in a hurry to propose it. Instead, he first ruled out the ideas of people who might compete with Li Yuan. Three days ago, he asked Yu Shiji to formally file the appointment case.

When Yuwen Shu heard that Li Zhongliang meant hope, he was overjoyed and asked quickly: "How is the progress?"

Li Zhongliang smiled and said, "The Emperor discussed this matter with Prime Minister Yu, Prime Minister Dugu and Shangshu Pei. Prime Minister Yu strongly agreed, but Prime Minister Dugu was the opposite. He firmly opposed it. Shangshu Pei's attitude was ambiguous, but he just said that the prefect Li had a good official voice. Today, the Emperor summoned the general, and it was probably the final decision."

Yuwen Shu was stunned. Dugu Zhen firmly opposed it. Why is this? Isn’t Li Yuan his nephew? Is he afraid that Li Yuanshu will attract a lot of trouble?

Yuwen Shu was puzzled, but at this time he was thinking more about Dugu Zhen's attitude, but four boxes of gold. So in one hour, will that more than 10,000 taels of gold belong to him?

Yuwen Shu walked to the imperial study room and waited. Li Zhongliang went in and reported to him, and came out for a moment and said, "General Yuwen, the emperor promised you to go in."

Yuwen Shu sorted out his clothes and hats, walked quickly into the imperial study room. Yang Guang was reviewing the memorial before the imperial case. Yuwen Shu stepped forward and bowed and said, "My minister Yuwen Shu met Your Majesty!"

Yang Guang put down his pen and smiled: "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"I'm late and I'm guilty!"

"I'm too anxious."

Yang Guang said to the eunuch next to him: "You retreat!"

The eunuchs all retreated one after another. Yang Guang picked up a memorial and said, "I have come to find my beloved. There is something I want to ask for your opinion. Mr. Yu strongly recommends Li Yuan as the one who stays in Taiyuan, and the Prime Minister Dugu strongly opposes it. I am a little hesitant and want to see your attitude."

Yang Guang trusted two people the most about the issue of Guanlong nobles, one was Yang Yuanqing and the other was Yuwen Shu. The two also had division of labor. Yang Yuanqing was responsible for the military side, that is, how to deal with Guanlong nobles, how to weaken their strength, and take action for him, Yang Guang, while Yuwen Shu was the one who was responsible for the literary. How to provoke the relationship between Guanlong nobles and understand the conflicts and grievances between Guanlong nobles.

In terms of ability, Yang Guang trusts Yang Yuanqing, but in terms of loyalty, Yang Guang trusts Yuwen Shu even more. He looked at Yuwen Shu with hope, hoping that he could give him a good advice.
