Han Dao world

Chapter 17
When Yang Biao returned to his residence, it was already dark.

The food is placed on the table and covered with gauze.Yang Xiu was leaning aside, holding a scroll in one hand and chasing away flies with a cattail fan in the other.Hearing footsteps, he quickly got up, straightened his clothes, and saluted respectfully.

"Father."

Yang Biao glanced at Yang Xiu, and a gleam of relief flashed in his eyes. "Have not eat yet?"

"How can a son dare to preside over the father's return?"

As Yang Xiu said, he ordered someone to fetch water and wait for Yang Biao to wash himself.Yang Biao ran for a day, his face was covered with dust, and he felt much refreshed after washing.He greeted Yang Xiu to take a seat, and ordered someone to bring some wine to drink with Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu was very surprised and said with a smile, "Father's trip went well?"

Yang Biao raised his hand, unable to hide the smile on his brow. "Entering the room with no thickness, there must be room for recovery."

Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows lightly. "Father is brilliant, son is far behind."

Yang Biao shook his head. "Boy, it's not Naigong who is brilliant, but the son of heaven." After he finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, and said again with emotion: "This is the luck of the great man."

Yang Xiu's face became unnatural, Qi Qi said: "The Son of Heaven...why is he so holy?"

Yang Biao tilted his head and looked sideways at Yang Xiu, his eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Yang Xiu was restless and could only force a smile.

The attendant brought the wine, and Yang Biao picked up the wine glass, took a sip, moistened his throat, and told the story of the emperor.

"In the sixth year of Zhongping, Xinwei's change, the emperor was the king of Chenliu, and he went out of Luoyang with the young emperor to Xiaopingjin, blocking the river. Dong Zhuo led [-] Xiliang soldiers to the city. The young emperor was afraid and could not speak. The emperor calmly responded. From the beginning to the end, nothing was lost.”

Yang Xiu was awe-inspiring, his complexion changed slightly. "A nine-year-old boy, how dare he have such courage?"

Yang Biao nodded, and then said: "In the fourth year of Chuping, the emperor tried more than forty Confucian students. The first one was awarded the position of Langzhong, and the second prince gave up others. , Going to leave the native land, seeking food and resources, and not being professional. A child enters school, returns home empty-handed, and is appointed as a farmer. He will never be honored. I am very embarrassed. Those who are dismissed according to their subjects will be regarded as the prince's family."

Yang Xiu took a deep breath and sighed, "Even though the Son of Heaven is young, he has great benevolence."

Yang Biao was noncommittal, and then said: "Last year, there was a severe drought in Sanfu. The emperor avoided the main hall to ask for rain, and sent the imperial servant Hou Wen out of Taicang to make porridge with rice and beans. After a few days, the dead did not come down. The emperor tried to make porridge, but he knew that Hou Wen was greedy. The minister ordered everyone below to accept Hou Wen's research, and the emperor ordered fifty sticks to make Hou Wen make porridge again, so as to make atonement. Hou Wen felt ashamed, so he tried his best to feed the hungry people More than enough."

Yang Xiu subconsciously sat up straight and slapped his thigh hard. "Wonderful, if the emperor kills Hou Wen, although the law can be clarified, the relief will inevitably be delayed, and a few more people will die. Punishment but not killing, so that they can take their own responsibility, it is a policy that can achieve both."

Yang Biao smiled, drank the wine in the glass, and then said: "In February of this year, Guo and Li attacked each other. The arrow hit the front of the imperial court and shot through the curtain. Li Jue was afraid, and the emperor sat still. In October, in Xin Feng and Guo Bang sent people to burn the emperor's school at night, and the civil and military panicked, but the emperor's face was as usual. On the night of Renyin this month, there was a red aura permeating the purple palace, and people were panic-stricken. The emperor lived in the tent for several days without moving."

Yang Biao drank another glass of wine and looked at Yang Xiu with burning eyes. "Which of these things can you do?"

Yang Xiu blushed, pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "Son, I'm ashamed. Hou Wen's matter may be feasible, but other... can't."

"You still have self-knowledge." Yang Biao snorted, and said, "How many things can Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Gonglu do?"

Yang Xiu smiled wryly, bowed his head and remained silent.

"How many of Yuan Benchu's sons, Yuan Xiansi and Yuan Xianyi, and Yuan Gonggong's son, Yuan Boyang, can do?"

Yang Xiu let out a long sigh.

"Boy, a gentleman sees the opportunity and does not wait for the end of the day."

Yang Xiu's heart moved, and he remembered what the scholar Sun Rui said that day.

-

Early the next morning, Yang Xiu got up early, washed up, and came to the plateau to see him.

Liu Xie had just finished practicing sword skills for a while, and was taking advantage of the intermission to discuss gains and losses with Wang Yue. He was somewhat surprised when he heard that Yang Xiu had come to see him.

He knew that Yang Xiu hadn't left, but he didn't expect Yang Xiu to see him again so soon.

Young people, especially young people with good backgrounds and high talents, are somewhat arrogant and will not bow their heads so easily.

Even if you have to bow your head, you have to wait for the right opportunity to save yourself some face.

Yang Xiu was so quick, maybe he came to bid farewell, and before leaving, he said a few harsh words to enjoy himself.

Celebrities, don't they all have this tone.

But if he wants to find a sense of presence with me, he is wrong.

I must let him see the invincible demeanor of Jianzheng scholars.

While thinking about it, Liu Xie ordered someone to tell Yang Xiu Shangyuan.When Yang Xiu came close, Liu Xie took a look and felt that he might be wrong.

Yang Xiu's expression was solemn, without a trace of arrogance, he didn't look like he was here to scold and fight.

"Sir, Hongnong Yangxiu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Liu Xie saluted. "I'll see you at dawn, Mr. Yang. I don't know what advice I have."

"The minister is not talented, but he is a minister, and he is proficient in writing and ink. He is willing to go on a horse for His Majesty, serve the pen and ink, pass the news, and do his best."

Liu Xie looked at Yang Xiu in surprise, and Wang Yue also looked shocked.

With Yang Xiu's background and temperament, it is really not easy to say such humble words.

Was this taken care of by the Taiwei?
Not like ah, there is no redness on the face.

As the saying goes, don't raise your hand to hit a smiling face.Although Liu Xie looked down on Yang Xiu, he had to save some face for Yang Biao.Taking a step back, Yang Xiu is so sincere, if he refuses directly, no one will dare to recommend himself in the future.

"The son of Duke Yang, how can he be a walking horse, he should be Huang Menlang according to the rules."

The corners of Yang Xiu's mouth twitched, his face was burning hot, and he almost became angry from embarrassment.

There is no doubt that this is the emperor's punishment for him. It can even be said that the emperor still does not want to accept him, deliberately using such a nearly humiliating position to refuse him in disguise.

Huang Menlang is a member of Huangmen Shilang, a newly established official position in the first year of Zhongping.

In September of the sixth year of Zhongping, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu entered the palace to punish eunuchs, and all the offices in the palace were empty.

To put it bluntly, it means that the foreign officials who have won a great victory will reward each other for their merits and share power.

At that time, Yang Biao was appointed as Sikong, so he was naturally qualified to recruit his sons to become officials, even though he was not weak at the time.

But he was unmoved and did not take this opportunity to become an official.

Now the emperor said that he was Huang Menlang according to the rules, which means that he came late and made up for this opportunity.

Before changing it, he would definitely walk away and never see him again.

But after talking with his father Yang Biao last night, he knew that he had no other choice. Unless he really retired to the countryside, he could only endure it and hope that one day he would be recognized and trusted by the emperor.

"Wei!" Yang Xiu bowed and saluted, tears rolling in his eyes.

Liu Xie caught a glimpse of it inadvertently and was greatly surprised.

After all, you are the seed of reading, a writer, very emotional, so excited?

　Laozhuang has two alliance leaders, happy!
　　Thanks to the conscientious and lonely brother, we are fans of AMD.
