Dahan first prince

Chapter 123 The Remnant of the Momen?

After solving the problem of rations for the officials and slaves of the Shaofu government this winter, and communicating with Liu Ying about paving the canal with gongs after the beginning of spring, Yang Chengyan walked out of the county office thoughtfully and set foot on the bank of the Zhengguo Canal. path of.

Lianzhao County is only more than ten miles away from Zhengguo Canal, and there is no urgent matter at hand, Yangcheng Yanzi is also happy to get out of the carriage and walk a certain distance, so that he can breathe and relax.

Seeing Yang Chengyan with a heavy heart, he came to the lotus spoon with Yang Chengyan, and Yang Li, the prime minister of the Shaofu, who was following Yang Chengyan's carriage on foot, also had a little thoughtful expression on his face.

After a while, Yang Li quietly quickened his pace, came to the distance of one step behind Yangcheng Yan, and walked forward with Yangcheng Yan.

I don't know if he sensed Yang Li behind him, Yang Chengyan shook his head with a serious face, seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to ask: "Xiao Xiang..."

"Is it true that as the family says, you are the one who puts your own affairs first and puts others' affairs last?"

"Is there no food in the national treasury, or is it that Xiao Xiangjian's family has tens of thousands of stones of food, and Fang refuses to allocate the rations of the officials and slaves of the Shaofu..."

After saying that, Yang Cheng Yanyou pondered for a moment, turned his body slightly, and saw Yang Li's secretive expression on his face, he did not forget to ask: "Is it possible for you to understand this matter?"

Seeing that Yang Chengyan asked him directly, Yang Lizong didn't want to speak up, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward, giving Yang Chengyan a little bow.

"According to the official's opinion, Mr. Yang has this confusion, or he is in harmony with his family's wishes..."

"Ok?"

Hearing Yang Chengyan's doubtful 'hmm', Yang Li hesitated for a moment, but finally let go of his plan to 'keep his mouth shut'.

"In this matter, Duke Yang thought that Xiao Xiangguo was the key point, but the subordinate officials thought that the key point was at home."

After speaking in a calm tone, Yang Li's expression became a little serious.

"Since the Changle and Weiyang Palaces were built, Yang Gong and Xiao Xiang were in the court, and they can be said to work together."

"For the outside world, this matter is naturally the good talk of Duke Yang's 'knowing Xiao Xiangguo's kindness and repaying it', but for your majesty and your family, this matter may not be the case..."

Hearing Yang Li's somewhat cryptic words, Yang Chengyan showed a slightly enlightened expression, and immediately turned sideways with hesitation.

"In my opinion, your majesty and the family do not want the old man to have too close contact with Mr. Xiao, so the family came to this time to secretly warn the old man about the rations of officials and slaves?"

Seeing that Yang Chengyan had also penetrated the key points, Yang Li smiled lightly and nodded, stretched out his hand a little, signaling to talk while walking.

When Yang Chengyan started to move forward again, Yang Li narrated to Yang Chengyan what was in his heart.

——Not for showing off, nor for showing off, just because Yang Chengyan also has the kindness to know and recommend Yang Li...

"Since His Majesty established Han Guozuo, a few years old, the Chang'an court has suffered from a shortage of money and food; the treasury of the Xiangfu and the funds in the Shaofu are even more indistinguishable. It is called "the treasury" by the ministers of the court."

"However, the shortage of the government and treasury is only a short-term disadvantage. When Your Majesty pacifies the princes with different surnames in the Guandong, the universe will be peaceful, and all the people in the world can rest and live, and it will be abundant."

"As for the treasury of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the income is the world's agricultural tax, which is used for state affairs; the money in the Shaofu, the annual income is the oral tax of all the people in the world, and it is used for the palace."

"Therefore, the two can be said to be: the treasury of the prime minister's mansion is the expenses used by the outer dynasty to rule the world; the money in the less mansion is the private money of your majesty."

Speaking of this, Yang Li couldn't help but chuckled and turned his head to the side, looking at Yang Chengyan with a hint of reminder.

"The treasury of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the internal funds of the Shaofu are used for state affairs by the outer dynasty, and used by His Majesty for palace taboos. This is the difference between inside and outside."

"Since that's the case, Mr. Yang, try to think: Your Majesty today, would you like the person in charge of the money in the Shaofu to have a close personal relationship with Xiao Xiangguo, who is in charge of the treasury of the Xiangfu's mansion, so that in the future the mansion and the treasury will merge, regardless of inside and outside?"

"Even if His Majesty wishes, what should we do when the palace chariot is driven and the family visits the sacred?"

After saying that, Yang Li did not forget to lower his voice a little, leaned his upper body to Yang Chengyan, and reminded vaguely: "Yang Gong has forgotten the past, why did Xiao Xiangguo defile himself?"

Hearing Yang Li's in-depth analysis, Yang Chengyan's expression finally showed a little solemnity.

"Yes······"

"President Xiao is in charge of the treasury of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and His Majesty has been fighting outside all year round, so that Prime Minister Xiao can hold the power of the court for a long time."

"This old man is in charge of the money in the Shaofu. If you get too close to Prime Minister Xiao, you will not arouse suspicion from your Majesty and family..."

After saying these words thoughtfully, Yang Chengyan couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and finally shook his head with a bitter smile.

"A companion is like a tiger..."

"In order to avoid suspicion from your majesty and family members, this old man has no choice but to neglect the love of the past, and to repay the kindness of meeting Xiao..."

"Ah~"

"What's wrong with me..."

Unexpectedly, when Yang Li heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"The lower officials think that this is just the sophistication of the family."

"Ok?"

"how do I say this?"

After Yang Chengyan asked in confusion, Yang Li chuckled again.

"Duke Yang, think about it: If this matter is not done by the family, but by His Majesty, what should we do?"

Hearing this question, Yang Chengyan almost didn't even think about it, so he said: "Your Majesty suspects that the old man is too close to Prime Minister Xiao, so he should speak out."

Hearing this, Yang Li just nodded.

"Exactly."

"If His Majesty is suspicious, he will ignore the old friendship between Duke Yang and Xiao Xiangguo, and just tell Duke Yang to 'do it for himself'."

"Ran's family came here to secretly admonish Lord Yang on the grounds that Xiao Xiangguo refused to allocate rations for the officials and slaves of the Shaofu. This was planned by Lord Yang..."

"Since Xiao Xiang refused to allocate rations for officials and slaves, Yang Gong and Xiao Xiang are drifting away. Outsiders know about it, and they can't say that Yang Gong'knows the favor and doesn't repay it'. It's just that Xiao Xiang acted improperly and made Yang Gong feel cold?"

Speaking of this, Yang Li did not forget to turn his head, glanced around the two of them, and confirmed that 'the partition wall has no ears', and then said in a low voice: "Besides, Xiao Xiangguo may have understood the intention of this family. .”

"If not, even though the state treasury is unable to allocate grain, with the old friendship between Duke Yang and Xiao Xiangguo, can Xiao Xiangguo keep the state treasury out of grain?"

"The lower officials thought that Xiao Xiangguo probably knew about his family's intentions, so he didn't allocate food, thinking that Duke Quanyang would 'repay Xiao Xiangguo's kindness for knowing him'."

After saying that, Yang Li finally straightened up, heaved a long sigh with a little admiration on his face, and finally added: "In this way, there will be no worries about the rift between Yang Gong and Xiao Xiang."

"Xiao Xiang didn't allocate food, because His Majesty's army was away and the treasury was stretched, so he did this helpless thing; Yang Princess Zheng Guoqu repairs, bitter officials and slaves have no food to eat, so it is human nature to hold grudges against Xiao Xiangguo."

"In this way, the theory of the government and the wild things, there is nothing to say that it is not Yang Gong and Xiao Xiangguo's actions..."

Hearing Yang Li's explanation of this relationship, Yang Chengyan fell into a long thought.

After being stunned for a long time, Yang Chengyan finally moved his lips in confusion, and then nodded slightly depressed.

"Ugh······"

"It's not easy to live in a temple..."

"The old man has been in the ranks of Jiuqing for five years, and he has not even understood such a shallow theory..."

As he said that, Yang Chengyan couldn't help laughing at himself, looking at Yang Li with a little appreciation.

"On the contrary, you are young and promising, with outstanding talents. In the future, you will definitely be in the temple and make a difference?"

Hearing that Yang Chengyan praised him, Yang Li couldn't help but smile shyly. Seeing that the expression on Yang Chengyan's face didn't seem fake, he had no choice but to bow his hand.

"Yanggong's praise..."

"The commoner of the lower official, if there is no recommendation from Yang Gong, I am afraid that he will still be a vulgar craftsman..."

Seeing that Yang Li was so self-effacing, Yang Chengyan didn't show much politeness, he just smiled casually, acquiescing to Yang Li's words.

After more than a hundred steps like this, it was Yang Li who finally opened his mouth, breaking the tranquility between the two.

"Mr. Yang."

"'That incident', I want to sue my family..."

"I just don't know now, but it's a good opportunity?"

Hearing Yang Li's words at first, Yang Chengyan was subconsciously taken aback.

After going back to the future, Yang Chengyan suddenly had a dignified look on his face that was still carefree just now!
After looking around for a while, Yang Cheng Yancai looked at Yang Li with a serious face after making sure that no one was overhearing him within twenty paces.

"male······"

"Decided?"

Seeing Yang Li nodded abruptly: "Decided!"

"This time, under the order of His Majesty, the family will renovate the Zhengguo Canal. For more than two months, it will show generosity and love for the people!"

"The policy of the Geng family is to pave the canal with dong and stone bricks to consolidate the soil of the Zhengguo canal, and they often have a lot of opinions on the craftsman's technique."

"Everything here coincides with the 'Three Tables' learned by the lower officials!"

Saying this resolutely, Yang Li looked at Yangcheng again, and a sense of sacred mission suddenly surged in his temperament.

"Duke Yang!"

"Since the first Juzi died with the old Qi Wang Tianheng, my Momen has almost disappeared; the words of the ancestor Mo Di have almost died out!"

"If you don't get the protection of the lord, you may not be an official for ten years. The words of my Momen, the ancestor of the ancestor, Mo Di, will be extinct in the world!"

"The words, deeds, gestures, and deeds of the current family all coincide with the three-example method of my Mohist sect. The lower officials think that you should give it a try!"

Saying that, Yang Li couldn't help but hold Yang Chengyan's arm solemnly.

"In the past few years, the lower officials have been protected by Lord Yang, so that Mo Di's words will not be cut off; now the family is showing the appearance of a benevolent monarch, this may be the last chance for my Mo sect!"

"Besides, His Majesty is still here. Although the family is the ruler, it is not the heir apparent."

"Even if my Mo family doesn't like it, the family will not rush to kill them all."

"However, if in the future, the family visits the sacred, and they are not happy to see the officials presenting Mo Di's words, my Mo sect may really be extinct in history..."

Hearing Yang Li's sincere cry, Yang Chengyan's complexion changed, and he finally nodded thoughtfully.

"That's the only way..."

"Since that's the case, when the spring begins in February, the family will go to Sanyuan to resume the supervision of Zheng Guoqu's renovation work. The old man will find a good opportunity so that the father-in-law will meet at home face to face with his bare feet and brown clothes!"
