The daily life of Dali Siqing
Chapter 667 Hand over military power?
Yang Qingyuan is not a reckless man, on the contrary, he is a rare intellectual player among martial artists.
If he wanted to be the mastermind behind the scenes, it would be enough to trick Lu Xiaofeng around.
Although he was very angry about what happened in the court.
But he didn't rush back to God's Capital immediately, but chose to take advantage of the situation and return to the court with the victory of destroying the country.
Although the Later Jin Dynasty was not the biggest foreign aggression of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was also one of the sources of disturbing the peace in the northern border.
After destroying the gold, this is something that Emperor Taizu Gao failed to do.
Although Qin Yiyan and Zhao Tianlin were the commanders of the two armies that sent troops to destroy gold, Yang Qingyuan was the supreme commander in the battle to destroy gold.
And if Yang Qingyuan hadn't completely annihilated the main force of Houjin in Jinyang, there wouldn't be this battle of annihilating gold.
Although Yang Qingyuan did not directly participate in the war of destroying the country, but in terms of credit, he was the unshakable first.
This Yang Qingyuan's status and contributions have increased to a higher level.
In terms of prestige alone, Yang Qingyuan is not inferior to Yanyi in the slightest.
Yu Yanyi, Fang Zhengjun, can be deceived by Fang.
But Yang Qingyuan was not a gentleman like Yu Yanyi, which caused Zhu Zhankun a huge headache, and it was really not the right time to come back.
If he can wait for him to deal with Yu Yanyi and completely control the Imperial Forest Army in the capital, Zhu Zhankun will have more confidence to fight against Yu Yanyi.
But what the ministers, including Yu Zhu Zhankun, didn't expect was that Yang Qingyuan actually returned to the capital alone in advance.
Yang Qingyuan's enemies and political allies in the capital did not understand this wave.
What is this operation? !
Did you just give up your greatest advantage and come to solo with Zhu Zhankun? !
"Marquis of Wuxiang, Minister of Dali Temple, Yang Qingyuan will meet you when you return to the pilgrimage!"
Following the call from the eunuchs, Yang Qingyuan's name rang out in Daming Palace.
"Marquis of Wuxiang, Yang Qingyuan has an audience with the new king..."
Yang Qingyuan was dressed in military uniform, and wanted to press his sword to go to the hall, but was stopped by the captain of the palace gate, who wanted to untie his sword.
According to the ritual system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Qingyuan returned from a great victory without taking off his armor or removing his sword.
You can't even call them by their full names when they're called.
But Captain Gongmen doesn't care so much. No one in Shendu knows that when the emperor was still the prince, he was in the same position as Yang Qingyuan. Now that he has successfully enthroned, he will naturally have to deal with Yang Qingyuan. Regardless of the current glory of the surname Yang, he is hated by the emperor. , which is more serious than any crime.
The school captain thought, if he loses Yang Qingyuan's face, the emperor will be very happy too. Once the emperor is happy, wouldn't it be a matter of time before he gets promoted? !
Thinking of this level, Yang Qingyuan is no longer a human figure in the eyes of Captain Gongmen, but a walking road to promotion. Can he not go up and step on it? !
Only then did the captain of the imperial guards guarding the palace gate want to strike down Yang Qingyuan's sword.
Facing the deliberate embarrassment of the captain in front of him, Yang Qingyuan glanced at the captain of the Imperial Guard.
"You want to lower my sword?"
Although the lieutenant of the City Gate Imperial Guard was not under Yang Qingyuan's command, [-]% of his Imperial Guard was transferred from the original Jinyang Army.
In the Jinyang Army, Yang Qingyuan's prestige has reached an unimaginable level for Zhu Zhankun.
After the captain's words to untie the sword came out, Yang Qingyuan just looked at him, and felt dozens of eyes staring at his back, like a light on his back.
The captain felt that he was hasty, but he just wanted to untie the sword, so why was he being targeted by his subordinates? !
However, Yang Qingyuan's face was expressionless, but his heart was full of joy. What kind of pig teammate did Zhu Zhankun choose? !At this time, if you dare to put eye drops on yourself, isn't this just provoking the anger of the gentry in the army? !
You must know that [-]% of the current Yulin Army is from the old divisions of Tiance Army and Jinyang Army. own hands.
Of course, the new king Zhu Zhankun knew about Yang Qingyuan's prestige in the army, but he had no other choice but to dispatch troops from foreign troops to enrich the defense of Gyeonggi.
It is also a rule left by Emperor Taizu Gao to choose an army that is good at fighting and deploy it to defend Gyeonggi.
Its purpose is to increase the mobility of the army and prevent a general from commanding an army for too long, causing the army to become his private army.
But the elites in the Northern Territory are left with the Jinyang Army and the Tiance Army.
After the original Longwu Army and Yulin Army were disabled by Hou Jin, they were reorganized into the Jinyang Army by Yu Yanyi in cooperation with the Preparation Army.
Zhu Zhankun had no choice if he wanted to recruit elites from the northern border to supplement the Imperial Forest Army, or he would transfer the Tiance Army or the Jinyang Army.
Of course, there is also the Shenwu Army in the southern border, and the Shence Army in the Western Regions.
However, the southern border and the western regions are not peaceful, and the journey is far away. A little carelessness may lead to chaos on the border.
Although Zhu Zhankun is completely opposed to Yang Qingyuan and Yu Yanyi's lineage, he still has to consider whether he can secure his throne.
Yang Qingyuan and Captain Gongmen were in a stalemate for a moment, and when cold sweat soaked Captain Gongmen's clothes, Yang Qingyuan untied the Zhanlu Sword from his waist and handed it to Captain Gongmen.
Then he entered the palace city without saying a word.
Lieutenant Gongmen looked at the saber Yang Qingyuan untied in his hand, and shouted in his heart, the bet was right.
This time, Yang Qingyuan's face was severely slapped, so what if he returned from victory?You still have to surrender your saber obediently.
If the Son of Heaven knew about this matter, even if it could not be credited, it would definitely be a sigh of relief for the Son of Heaven.
In the era of supremacy of imperial power, the praise of the emperor is more effective than any credit.
When Captain Gongmen was happily dreaming of his dream of rising to the top, he didn't notice the eyes of the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army behind him at all.
"Yang Houye, His Majesty is still waiting for you in the palace!"
Yuhuatian has now replaced Cao Zhengchun's position as Zhu Zhankun's confidant and the head of the Ouchi.
Yang Qingyuan nodded towards Yuhuatian and walked into the hall.
In the side hall, in addition to the new emperor Zhu Zhankun, there are Li Hongyi, a scholar of the Jianji Hall, Cao Shouzheng, the new minister of punishment, and others.
Zhu Zhankun looked at Yang Qingyuan who entered the hall, his eyes were full of anticipation.
No matter how you say it, he is a king. When Yang Qingyuan saw him, he would naturally kneel down.
In Zhu Zhankun's expectant eyes, Yang Qingyuan spoke,
"Chen, Yang Qingyuan sees His Majesty, forgive me for not being able to fully salute with the armor on his body!"
This scene was also in Yang Qingyuan's plan, and when he returned to the capital, he would inevitably have contact with Zhu Zhankun.
No matter how Zhu Zhankun came to the throne, he is now the emperor of the Great Zhou, and Yang Qingyuan, as a minister of the Great Zhou, naturally needs to be respected.
So Yang Qingyuan chose to bring armor to the hall.
Jiezhou people do not worship, please meet with military courtesy.
These were the words of Zhou Yafu, a military general in the early Han Dynasty, which was later passed on as a rule by successive dynasties.
When a general wears armor to meet the emperor, he does not need to salute.
"..."
Yang Qingyuan just clasped his fists in a perfunctory salute, this... Zhu Zhankun said, this is different from what he imagined!
But even so, Zhu Zhankun couldn't tell what was wrong.
It's all polite.
"Marquis Yang opened borders for the country, and he has worked so hard!"
Zhu Zhankun was not annoyed by Yang Qingyuan's behavior. Although Yang Qingyuan did not kneel today, he will kneel sooner or later, and there is no rush.
Now he is the victor, the one who sits on this throne.
A winner should have the generosity of a winner.
Yang Qingyuan didn't intend to be courteous to Zhu Zhankun at all.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Lord Yu was imprisoned by a minister. I don't know what crime he committed?!"
Hearing Yang Qingyuan's questioning, Zhu Zhankun's heart turned cold. This Yang Qingyuan is really not a good person. He alluded to the arrest of people in the west factory, which is against the rules. It seems that he must be dealt with as soon as possible.
Yang Qingyuan: ...
He really didn't mean that, he just wanted to know what crime Zhu Zhankun used against Yu Yanyi.
Although Zhu Zhankun was already thinking about how to kill Yang Qingyuan to relieve his hatred, he still had a gentle expression on his face.
"Cao Qing, you assisted Xichang to investigate this case, you can talk to Yang Hou!"
Zhu Zhankun said to Cao Shouzheng on the side.
Cao Shouzheng looked at Yang Qingyuan, with a look of disdain flashing across his eyes. Of course, Yu Yanyi was a man of honor and won the favor of the late emperor. Because of Zhou Mingsheng's case, he was repeatedly suppressed.
such a pity!Once the emperor and the courtiers, now is his time.
After Wei Dong, the former Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, came to resign from his old age and become an official, the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments has been vacant.After Zhu Zhankun ascended the throne, Cao Shouzheng ascended to the position of Qiuguan Shangshu with his merits of Conglong.
Cao Shouzheng is also an old bureaucrat in the court, and he has done a good job of superficial skills.
"Marquis Yang, you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart. I never thought that Yu Yanyi would collude with the King of Chu, conspire against him, and disrupt our great Zhou society. It is a heinous crime..."
"Okay! Master Cao's eloquence, I have already learned it back then, you don't need to prove it again!" Yang Qingyuan didn't care about the high-sounding words Cao Shouzheng said at all.
"However, as the Minister of Dali Temple, I am in charge of the laws and regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I have the right to verify major criminal cases in the world. I don't know if the files of the case of Yu Yanyi's treason have been sorted out and whether the evidence is complete. Dali Temple will also finish it Check it out and get a conviction and sentencing as soon as possible.”
"..."
Cao Shouzheng looked at Zhu Zhankun, blinking his eyes, dossier?evidence?
How can he have such a thing! ?
He teamed up with Xichang to investigate Yanyi thoroughly.
Yu Yanyi could not find any other conclusive charges except that he ate four more biscuits in one meal when he was punished as a kiln worker.
He can't be convicted of eating too many pancakes, so let's sentence him to beheaded! ?
Originally, he wanted to forge a letter in which Yu Yanyi colluded with the King of Chu, but Yu Yanyi himself is a rare master of calligraphy in the world.
Although there are some people in Xichang who are good at imitating handwriting, they can't write the style and charm of Yanyi's handwriting at all.
Many ministers in the court are calligraphers, and they can see the mystery at a glance.
So until now, except for a few forged witnesses, Xichang has not been able to produce any evidence to prove Yu Yanyi's crime.
"Hahaha, Mr. Yang is just joking. It is a serious crime to punish the Nine Clans. What kind of person is Yu Yanyi? Confession."
"So, Master Cao didn't find any evidence?!"
Cao Shouzheng said with a smile, "Master Yang may not have heard clearly just now. The crime of the traitor Yu Yanyi is for intending to commit treason, not for committing treason. Where can we find real evidence!"
To rebel is to want to rebel.
If you want to rebel, you haven't done it yet.
How can there be evidence for things that have not been done yet? !
But you shouldn't even think about treason, it's a serious crime if you think about it.
In this way, with the efforts of Cao Shouzheng and Xichang, a logical closure was formed.
Although it sounds outrageous, this matter can make sense.
"Hehe... intending to rebel?!"
Yang Qingyuan sneered and said, "How can you conquer the world with the word "intended desire?"
"..."
Li Hongyi on the other side trembled slightly when he heard these words.
He has read a lot of books and is familiar with the classics and history collections, so he naturally knows the source of Yang Qingyuan's words.
When Qin Huizhi, the treacherous chancellor of the former Song Dynasty, unjustly killed Yue Wumu in the name of "unnecessary", Han Liangchen, the former general of the Song Dynasty, also asked this question.
The crime of intending to rebel was not something that Cao Shouzheng and Xichang could fiddle with, it was Li Hongyi's masterpiece.
Li Hongyi could even imagine that after thousands of years, his name might be listed alongside Qin Huizhi, and his name would remain infamous for thousands of years.
I don't know if what he did was right or wrong? !
When Yang Qingyuan was about to continue to make trouble, Zhu Zhankun said, "Okay, Marquis Yang is exhausted on his saddle horse, and he is full of dust and dust. It is also hard work. It is better to go back to the mansion to rest. If there is anything, we can wait until tomorrow when we go to court."
Yang Qingyuan dismissed Zhu Zhankun's words, and he never expected that Yu Yanyi could be exonerated with just his mouth.
"Your Majesty, if you want to go to the dungeon and see Yanyi, I ask the emperor for permission."
Of course Yang Qingyuan could sneak into the dungeon with lightness kung fu, even if Yuhuatian guarded it himself, it might not be able to stop him.But Yang Qingyuan wasn't sure if Yu Yanyi was in the dungeon.If Zhu Zhankun transferred Yu Yanyi in advance in order to prevent him from seeing Yu Yanyi, it would be troublesome.
"This..." Zhu Zhankun obviously didn't want Yang Qingyuan to see Yu Yanyi.But in the next moment, what Yang Qingyuan took out gave Zhu Zhankun no reason to refuse.
What Yang Qingyuan held was the Lin Talisman that mobilized the Tiance Army.
With the military system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, soldiers and horses with more than a hundred riders were not allowed to leave the camp without an imperial edict.
Yang Qingyuan's prestige, coupled with the Lin Talisman in his hand, allowed Yang Qingyuan to easily mobilize the Tiance Army.
Now that Yang Qingyuan took the initiative to hand over the Lin Talisman, it was equivalent to cutting off Yang Qingyuan's two claws.
Yang Qingyuan, who has no military power, is nothing more than a swordsman at the Dongxuan Realm.
Nothing special? !
Zhu Zhankun naturally knew how to choose at this time, and immediately said, "Yang Houzhen is a loyal minister. After Jin came back just after the destruction, he had no time to catch his breath, so he will continue to serve my Great Zhou."
Hearing Zhu Zhankun's words, several people in the hall responded one after another.
"Yang Hou's ability is naturally beyond doubt."
"Wen can stabilize the country, and martial arts can stabilize the country."
……
"Cao Qing!" Zhu Zhankun said after taking the soldier talisman Yuhuatian took from Yang Qingyuan.
"Wei Chen is here!"
"Where is Yu Yanyi being held at the moment?!"
Cao Shouzheng was meticulous in etiquette, "The traitor Yu Yanyi is currently being imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."
"Then it's up to you to arrange for Yang Hou to meet the traitor!"
"Yes!"
The two parties have completed the transaction, which is equivalent to Yang Qingyuan exchanging Lin Talisman for the right to visit Yu Yanyi.
Afterwards, Yang Qingyuan didn't want to chat with Zhu Zhankun, so he excused himself and left the palace.
Looking at the back of Yang Qingyuan going away, a sincere smile appeared on Zhu Zhankun's originally gentle face.
It's really a bargain to exchange the Tiance Army's soldier talisman with visiting Yu Yanyi.
If it weren't for his own image, Zhu Zhankun would have laughed out loud at this moment.
When Cao Shouzheng saw this, he knew Zhu Zhankun's complacent mood at the moment, and immediately flattered him, "Your Majesty is really a good means... In a few words, Yang Qingyuan surrendered his military power."
Cao Shouzheng's words made Yuhuatian and Li Hongyi speechless.
Did Zhu Zhankun force Yang Qingyuan to hand it over?This is clearly someone who took out the soldier talisman himself!
Why didn't I realize that Zhu Zhankun was so self-willed? !
But for Li Hongyi and Yuhuatian, this is not only not a bad thing, but good news.
The more stupid the emperor is, the easier it is for them to be empty.
"Although Your Majesty has taken back the soldier talisman from Yang Qingyuan's hands, you still have to be careful and guard against him. This thief has a lot of prestige in the army!"
Zhu Zhankun nodded after listening to Li Hongyi's remonstrance, "Li Qing's words are old-fashioned and prudent, and he delivered an order to order the Jinyang Army to station in Jinyang City. The imperial court will send special envoys to reward the three armies."
Zhu Zhankun's solution was also very simple. If the Jinyang Army's [-] soldiers and horses were left outside the capital, what would be the use of allowing Yang Qingyuan's prestige to increase? !
"The minister obeys the order!"
……
Yang Qingyuan quickly walked out of the palace city, he had never felt so oppressive in the palace city.
Perhaps emperors like the first emperor are just a special case, while emperors like Zhu Zhankun are the norm.
Yang Qingyuan walked to the gate of the palace and took back his sword Zhanlu.
Just as he was leaving, the soldiers originally transferred from the Tiance Army paid military salutes and watched Yang Qingyuan leave.
A smile appeared on the corner of Yang Qingyuan's mouth, if Zhu Zhankun saw this scene, he would know.
The so-called Lin Talisman is just a dead thing!
The ownership of military power has never been determined by a single soldier talisman!
……
Yang Qingyuan returned to his mansion, looked at Yaya and Cui Keqin whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and then went to visit Qian Muqian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.
Qian Muqian is Yang Qingyuan's teacher, and it is also due for Yang Qingyuan to pay a visit after returning from the expedition.
Not only Qian Muqian, but also all the acquaintances and colleagues in the court, Yang Qingyuan visited them one by one, acting like a general returning from an expedition.
This relieved the Xichang spies who had been secretly watching Yang Qingyuan.
Yang Qingyuan didn't make any troubles, so naturally it couldn't be better.
Otherwise, relying on Yang Qingyuan's lightness and martial arts, even if Yu Huatian came in person, he would not dare to be able to keep up with Yang Qingyuan.
For two days in a row, Yang Qingyuan did not go to Dali Temple to be on duty, nor did he visit Yu Yanyi.
This operation made Zhu Zhankun feel incomprehensible.
Could it be that they want to collude with all the ministers to do Yihuoguang's affairs? !
Zhu Zhankun is really not afraid of this move.
If Yang Qingyuan was a veteran disciple of the three dynasties and his official officials spread all over the world, he really has the qualifications.
If Yang Qingyuan holds [-] people, he also has this qualification.
But the current Yang Qingyuan... can't.
The third day, early morning.
Yang Qingyuan changed into the official uniform of Dali Temple Minister.
"Master Yang, Minister of Dali Temple, go back to the Yamen!"
……
If he wanted to be the mastermind behind the scenes, it would be enough to trick Lu Xiaofeng around.
Although he was very angry about what happened in the court.
But he didn't rush back to God's Capital immediately, but chose to take advantage of the situation and return to the court with the victory of destroying the country.
Although the Later Jin Dynasty was not the biggest foreign aggression of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was also one of the sources of disturbing the peace in the northern border.
After destroying the gold, this is something that Emperor Taizu Gao failed to do.
Although Qin Yiyan and Zhao Tianlin were the commanders of the two armies that sent troops to destroy gold, Yang Qingyuan was the supreme commander in the battle to destroy gold.
And if Yang Qingyuan hadn't completely annihilated the main force of Houjin in Jinyang, there wouldn't be this battle of annihilating gold.
Although Yang Qingyuan did not directly participate in the war of destroying the country, but in terms of credit, he was the unshakable first.
This Yang Qingyuan's status and contributions have increased to a higher level.
In terms of prestige alone, Yang Qingyuan is not inferior to Yanyi in the slightest.
Yu Yanyi, Fang Zhengjun, can be deceived by Fang.
But Yang Qingyuan was not a gentleman like Yu Yanyi, which caused Zhu Zhankun a huge headache, and it was really not the right time to come back.
If he can wait for him to deal with Yu Yanyi and completely control the Imperial Forest Army in the capital, Zhu Zhankun will have more confidence to fight against Yu Yanyi.
But what the ministers, including Yu Zhu Zhankun, didn't expect was that Yang Qingyuan actually returned to the capital alone in advance.
Yang Qingyuan's enemies and political allies in the capital did not understand this wave.
What is this operation? !
Did you just give up your greatest advantage and come to solo with Zhu Zhankun? !
"Marquis of Wuxiang, Minister of Dali Temple, Yang Qingyuan will meet you when you return to the pilgrimage!"
Following the call from the eunuchs, Yang Qingyuan's name rang out in Daming Palace.
"Marquis of Wuxiang, Yang Qingyuan has an audience with the new king..."
Yang Qingyuan was dressed in military uniform, and wanted to press his sword to go to the hall, but was stopped by the captain of the palace gate, who wanted to untie his sword.
According to the ritual system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Qingyuan returned from a great victory without taking off his armor or removing his sword.
You can't even call them by their full names when they're called.
But Captain Gongmen doesn't care so much. No one in Shendu knows that when the emperor was still the prince, he was in the same position as Yang Qingyuan. Now that he has successfully enthroned, he will naturally have to deal with Yang Qingyuan. Regardless of the current glory of the surname Yang, he is hated by the emperor. , which is more serious than any crime.

You must know that [-]% of the current Yulin Army is from the old divisions of Tiance Army and Jinyang Army. own hands.
Of course, the new king Zhu Zhankun knew about Yang Qingyuan's prestige in the army, but he had no other choice but to dispatch troops from foreign troops to enrich the defense of Gyeonggi.
It is also a rule left by Emperor Taizu Gao to choose an army that is good at fighting and deploy it to defend Gyeonggi.
Its purpose is to increase the mobility of the army and prevent a general from commanding an army for too long, causing the army to become his private army.
But the elites in the Northern Territory are left with the Jinyang Army and the Tiance Army.
After the original Longwu Army and Yulin Army were disabled by Hou Jin, they were reorganized into the Jinyang Army by Yu Yanyi in cooperation with the Preparation Army.
Zhu Zhankun had no choice if he wanted to recruit elites from the northern border to supplement the Imperial Forest Army, or he would transfer the Tiance Army or the Jinyang Army.
Of course, there is also the Shenwu Army in the southern border, and the Shence Army in the Western Regions.
However, the southern border and the western regions are not peaceful, and the journey is far away. A little carelessness may lead to chaos on the border.
Although Zhu Zhankun is completely opposed to Yang Qingyuan and Yu Yanyi's lineage, he still has to consider whether he can secure his throne.
Yang Qingyuan and Captain Gongmen were in a stalemate for a moment, and when cold sweat soaked Captain Gongmen's clothes, Yang Qingyuan untied the Zhanlu Sword from his waist and handed it to Captain Gongmen.
Then he entered the palace city without saying a word.
Lieutenant Gongmen looked at the saber Yang Qingyuan untied in his hand, and shouted in his heart, the bet was right.

When Captain Gongmen was happily dreaming of his dream of rising to the top, he didn't notice the eyes of the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army behind him at all.
"Yang Houye, His Majesty is still waiting for you in the palace!"
Yuhuatian has now replaced Cao Zhengchun's position as Zhu Zhankun's confidant and the head of the Ouchi.
Yang Qingyuan nodded towards Yuhuatian and walked into the hall.
In the side hall, in addition to the new emperor Zhu Zhankun, there are Li Hongyi, a scholar of the Jianji Hall, Cao Shouzheng, the new minister of punishment, and others.
Zhu Zhankun looked at Yang Qingyuan who entered the hall, his eyes were full of anticipation.
No matter how you say it, he is a king. When Yang Qingyuan saw him, he would naturally kneel down.
In Zhu Zhankun's expectant eyes, Yang Qingyuan spoke,
"Chen, Yang Qingyuan sees His Majesty, forgive me for not being able to fully salute with the armor on his body!"
This scene was also in Yang Qingyuan's plan, and when he returned to the capital, he would inevitably have contact with Zhu Zhankun.
No matter how Zhu Zhankun came to the throne, he is now the emperor of the Great Zhou, and Yang Qingyuan, as a minister of the Great Zhou, naturally needs to be respected.
So Yang Qingyuan chose to bring armor to the hall.
Jiezhou people do not worship, please meet with military courtesy.
These were the words of Zhou Yafu, a military general in the early Han Dynasty, which was later passed on as a rule by successive dynasties.
When a general wears armor to meet the emperor, he does not need to salute.
"..."
Yang Qingyuan just clasped his fists in a perfunctory salute, this... Zhu Zhankun said, this is different from what he imagined!
But even so, Zhu Zhankun couldn't tell what was wrong.
It's all polite.
"Marquis Yang opened borders for the country, and he has worked so hard!"
Zhu Zhankun was not annoyed by Yang Qingyuan's behavior. Although Yang Qingyuan did not kneel today, he will kneel sooner or later, and there is no rush.
Now he is the victor, the one who sits on this throne.
A winner should have the generosity of a winner.
Yang Qingyuan didn't intend to be courteous to Zhu Zhankun at all.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Lord Yu was imprisoned by a minister. I don't know what crime he committed?!"
Hearing Yang Qingyuan's questioning, Zhu Zhankun's heart turned cold. This Yang Qingyuan is really not a good person. He alluded to the arrest of people in the west factory, which is against the rules. It seems that he must be dealt with as soon as possible.
Yang Qingyuan: ...
He really didn't mean that, he just wanted to know what crime Zhu Zhankun used against Yu Yanyi.
Although Zhu Zhankun was already thinking about how to kill Yang Qingyuan to relieve his hatred, he still had a gentle expression on his face.
"Cao Qing, you assisted Xichang to investigate this case, you can talk to Yang Hou!"
Zhu Zhankun said to Cao Shouzheng on the side.
Cao Shouzheng looked at Yang Qingyuan, with a look of disdain flashing across his eyes. Of course, Yu Yanyi was a man of honor and won the favor of the late emperor. Because of Zhou Mingsheng's case, he was repeatedly suppressed.

Cao Shouzheng is also an old bureaucrat in the court, and he has done a good job of superficial skills.
"Marquis Yang, you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart. I never thought that Yu Yanyi would collude with the King of Chu, conspire against him, and disrupt our great Zhou society. It is a heinous crime..."
"Okay! Master Cao's eloquence, I have already learned it back then, you don't need to prove it again!" Yang Qingyuan didn't care about the high-sounding words Cao Shouzheng said at all.
"However, as the Minister of Dali Temple, I am in charge of the laws and regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I have the right to verify major criminal cases in the world. I don't know if the files of the case of Yu Yanyi's treason have been sorted out and whether the evidence is complete. Dali Temple will also finish it Check it out and get a conviction and sentencing as soon as possible.”
"..."
Cao Shouzheng looked at Zhu Zhankun, blinking his eyes, dossier?evidence?
How can he have such a thing! ?

"..."
Li Hongyi on the other side trembled slightly when he heard these words.
He has read a lot of books and is familiar with the classics and history collections, so he naturally knows the source of Yang Qingyuan's words.
When Qin Huizhi, the treacherous chancellor of the former Song Dynasty, unjustly killed Yue Wumu in the name of "unnecessary", Han Liangchen, the former general of the Song Dynasty, also asked this question.
The crime of intending to rebel was not something that Cao Shouzheng and Xichang could fiddle with, it was Li Hongyi's masterpiece.
Li Hongyi could even imagine that after thousands of years, his name might be listed alongside Qin Huizhi, and his name would remain infamous for thousands of years.
I don't know if what he did was right or wrong? !
When Yang Qingyuan was about to continue to make trouble, Zhu Zhankun said, "Okay, Marquis Yang is exhausted on his saddle horse, and he is full of dust and dust. It is also hard work. It is better to go back to the mansion to rest. If there is anything, we can wait until tomorrow when we go to court."
Yang Qingyuan dismissed Zhu Zhankun's words, and he never expected that Yu Yanyi could be exonerated with just his mouth.
"Your Majesty, if you want to go to the dungeon and see Yanyi, I ask the emperor for permission."
Of course Yang Qingyuan could sneak into the dungeon with lightness kung fu, even if Yuhuatian guarded it himself, it might not be able to stop him.But Yang Qingyuan wasn't sure if Yu Yanyi was in the dungeon.If Zhu Zhankun transferred Yu Yanyi in advance in order to prevent him from seeing Yu Yanyi, it would be troublesome.
"This..." Zhu Zhankun obviously didn't want Yang Qingyuan to see Yu Yanyi.But in the next moment, what Yang Qingyuan took out gave Zhu Zhankun no reason to refuse.
What Yang Qingyuan held was the Lin Talisman that mobilized the Tiance Army.
With the military system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, soldiers and horses with more than a hundred riders were not allowed to leave the camp without an imperial edict.
Yang Qingyuan's prestige, coupled with the Lin Talisman in his hand, allowed Yang Qingyuan to easily mobilize the Tiance Army.
Now that Yang Qingyuan took the initiative to hand over the Lin Talisman, it was equivalent to cutting off Yang Qingyuan's two claws.
Yang Qingyuan, who has no military power, is nothing more than a swordsman at the Dongxuan Realm.
Nothing special? !
Zhu Zhankun naturally knew how to choose at this time, and immediately said, "Yang Houzhen is a loyal minister. After Jin came back just after the destruction, he had no time to catch his breath, so he will continue to serve my Great Zhou."
Hearing Zhu Zhankun's words, several people in the hall responded one after another.
"Yang Hou's ability is naturally beyond doubt."
"Wen can stabilize the country, and martial arts can stabilize the country."
……
"Cao Qing!" Zhu Zhankun said after taking the soldier talisman Yuhuatian took from Yang Qingyuan.
"Wei Chen is here!"
"Where is Yu Yanyi being held at the moment?!"
Cao Shouzheng was meticulous in etiquette, "The traitor Yu Yanyi is currently being imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."
"Then it's up to you to arrange for Yang Hou to meet the traitor!"
"Yes!"
The two parties have completed the transaction, which is equivalent to Yang Qingyuan exchanging Lin Talisman for the right to visit Yu Yanyi.
Afterwards, Yang Qingyuan didn't want to chat with Zhu Zhankun, so he excused himself and left the palace.
Looking at the back of Yang Qingyuan going away, a sincere smile appeared on Zhu Zhankun's originally gentle face.
It's really a bargain to exchange the Tiance Army's soldier talisman with visiting Yu Yanyi.
If it weren't for his own image, Zhu Zhankun would have laughed out loud at this moment.
When Cao Shouzheng saw this, he knew Zhu Zhankun's complacent mood at the moment, and immediately flattered him, "Your Majesty is really a good means... In a few words, Yang Qingyuan surrendered his military power."
Cao Shouzheng's words made Yuhuatian and Li Hongyi speechless.
Did Zhu Zhankun force Yang Qingyuan to hand it over?This is clearly someone who took out the soldier talisman himself!
Why didn't I realize that Zhu Zhankun was so self-willed? !
But for Li Hongyi and Yuhuatian, this is not only not a bad thing, but good news.
The more stupid the emperor is, the easier it is for them to be empty.
"Although Your Majesty has taken back the soldier talisman from Yang Qingyuan's hands, you still have to be careful and guard against him. This thief has a lot of prestige in the army!"
Zhu Zhankun nodded after listening to Li Hongyi's remonstrance, "Li Qing's words are old-fashioned and prudent, and he delivered an order to order the Jinyang Army to station in Jinyang City. The imperial court will send special envoys to reward the three armies."
Zhu Zhankun's solution was also very simple. If the Jinyang Army's [-] soldiers and horses were left outside the capital, what would be the use of allowing Yang Qingyuan's prestige to increase? !
"The minister obeys the order!"
……
Yang Qingyuan quickly walked out of the palace city, he had never felt so oppressive in the palace city.
Perhaps emperors like the first emperor are just a special case, while emperors like Zhu Zhankun are the norm.
Yang Qingyuan walked to the gate of the palace and took back his sword Zhanlu.
Just as he was leaving, the soldiers originally transferred from the Tiance Army paid military salutes and watched Yang Qingyuan leave.
A smile appeared on the corner of Yang Qingyuan's mouth, if Zhu Zhankun saw this scene, he would know.
The so-called Lin Talisman is just a dead thing!
The ownership of military power has never been determined by a single soldier talisman!
……
Yang Qingyuan returned to his mansion, looked at Yaya and Cui Keqin whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and then went to visit Qian Muqian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.
Qian Muqian is Yang Qingyuan's teacher, and it is also due for Yang Qingyuan to pay a visit after returning from the expedition.
Not only Qian Muqian, but also all the acquaintances and colleagues in the court, Yang Qingyuan visited them one by one, acting like a general returning from an expedition.
This relieved the Xichang spies who had been secretly watching Yang Qingyuan.
Yang Qingyuan didn't make any troubles, so naturally it couldn't be better.
Otherwise, relying on Yang Qingyuan's lightness and martial arts, even if Yu Huatian came in person, he would not dare to be able to keep up with Yang Qingyuan.
For two days in a row, Yang Qingyuan did not go to Dali Temple to be on duty, nor did he visit Yu Yanyi.
This operation made Zhu Zhankun feel incomprehensible.
Could it be that they want to collude with all the ministers to do Yihuoguang's affairs? !
Zhu Zhankun is really not afraid of this move.
If Yang Qingyuan was a veteran disciple of the three dynasties and his official officials spread all over the world, he really has the qualifications.
If Yang Qingyuan holds [-] people, he also has this qualification.
But the current Yang Qingyuan... can't.
The third day, early morning.
Yang Qingyuan changed into the official uniform of Dali Temple Minister.
"Master Yang, Minister of Dali Temple, go back to the Yamen!"
