Monument Yangmen

Chapter 520 Yang Hong's Teachings

"Give Yang Ye the Duke of Dai, promote She Saihua as Madame Dai, promote Yang Yansi to be Marquis of the Tiger, and advance Cao Lin to be the third rank..."

Although Zhao Guangyi is vicious and hates the Yang family to the bone, but at this critical moment, he can bear the humiliation and take the overall situation into consideration.

Gao Huaide's death had a great impact on him.

Among the generals of the Song Dynasty, having lost a top supporter, the first thing he needs to ensure is to stabilize his throne.

Once Gao Huaide died, the Gao family's position among the generals of the Song Dynasty began to decline sharply.

Among the generals of the Great Song Dynasty, the three strongest seats will become the Cao family, the Shi family, and the Wang family.

In Zhao Guangyi's eyes, although Cao Bin was loyal, he was already an extremely human minister, and one step further could directly threaten the throne.

Therefore, the Cao family must not be allowed to go one step further.

However, the Shi family's focus in recent years has been on collecting money, and they are not concerned about the government affairs of the court.

Moreover, since Zhao Kuangyin released his military power after drinking wine, the Shi family has no desire to serve the country.

As for the Wang family, compared to the previous two, the Wang family is still somewhat weak.

Once Yang Qi led the army to rebel and counterattack the Song Dynasty, there were really not many people who could be used by Zhao Guangyi.

So, at this time, when he appeased the Yang family, he really appeased him.

You must not mix sand in it again, forcing the Yang family to rebel.

In order to stabilize the Yang family, Zhao Guangyi even reactivated Shen Lun and asked him to go to Daizhou as an emissary to read out the imperial decree.

After learning of Zhao Guangyi's decision, the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar.

When they learned that Gao Huaide died in Gusu, they also understood Zhao Guangyi's approach.

Gao Huaide died in battle, which is great news.

This means that a top general may fall due to this.

The situation in Bianjing City may also change due to this.

More benefits will appear in front of the courtiers.

How to obtain these interests, how to fight for these interests?
This question almost filled the minds of the civil and military officials of the court.

As for the Yang family's problems, they have already left them behind.

The Yang family rose up in the northwest, and what they robbed were the interests of the Dangxiang people and the Liao people, and did not rob them of their interests.

A new battle for interests will start in the Great Song Dynasty Hall.

……

Zhao Guangyi sent Shen Lun to read the imperial edict before leaving.

Zhao Guangyi invited Shen Lun to the palace and had a long talk all night.

The next day.

Shen Lun embarked on the road to Daizhou with the mission that Zhao Guangyi entrusted to him.

After Zhao Guangyi entrusted Shen Lun with the important task of comforting the Yang family, he wholeheartedly participated in sorting out the power changes in Bianjing.

He wants to cultivate more of his own strength in this competition for interests.

At the same time, hold all the power firmly in your own hands.

……

The situation in Bianjing was turbulent.

Yang Qi didn't know anything, he was facing Yang Hong helplessly at the moment.

It can be said that Yang Hong took great pains in order to extract the news of the Southern Kingdom from Yang Qi's mouth.

For twelve hours a day, Yang Hong blocked Yang Qi almost day and night.

Yang Qi was a little skeptical whether the old butler of Yang's mansion didn't need to rest.

At this moment, he was trapped on the bed by Yang Hong.

Since Yang Qi was seriously injured, in order to heal his injuries, he formed a habit of sleeping naked.

Now, Chi Guoguo is stuck on the side of the bed by Yang Hong, it's really not used to it.

Covering his body with a quilt, he asked Yang Hong with a dry smile, "Uncle Hong, what are you doing? I don't have any special hobbies."

"Pooh!"

Yang Hong spat, with a dark face, and cursed: "Don't give me a sloppy eye, you boy. These two days, you are like a thief, hiding from me everywhere. If you don't block you like this, can you find a chance to talk to you? "

Yang Qi said miserably: "Then you have to let me put on my clothes first, right? It's not good for people to see my current appearance."

Yang Hong stared, and said coldly: "That's it, who knows if your kid will run away with an excuse after putting on the clothes."

Wrapped in a quilt, Yang Qi said helplessly, "Uncle Hong, you can ask..."

"Cough cough~"

Yang Hong coughed twice, organized his words, and said, "What is your relationship with Yi Xi, the ruler of the Southern Kingdom? Erlang, Sanlang, and Liulang, how did they have anything to do with the Southern Kingdom? When did you form an alliance with the Zhe family?" What? When did you form an alliance with Yeqi Ganbo?"

Yang Qi blinked his eyes, and said frankly: "Yi Xi, the leader of the Southern Kingdom, is me. The second brother is currently the commander-in-chief of the Southern Kingdom, and the third and sixth brothers are now the generals of the Southern Kingdom..."

"You fart!"

Before Yang Qi finished speaking, he was interrupted roughly by Yang Hong.

Yang Hong shouted angrily: "Only you can become the lord of the Southern Kingdom, only Erlang, and the Grand Marshal of the Southern Kingdom? Why don't you say that Linggong is the Supreme Emperor of the Southern Kingdom?"

Yang Qi's eyes flickered quickly, and he said in amazement: "I am really the Lord of the Southern Kingdom, if my father is willing, he can also become the Supreme Emperor of the Southern Kingdom..."

"Um?!"

Yang Hong stared with anger.

Yang Qiwei sighed and said: "Okay! To tell you the truth, when I was in Yongzhou, I once helped the Lord of the Southern Kingdom with a little help. The Lord of the Southern Kingdom thought of his kindness and was able to chat with me again, so We became brothers.

So, I am in the southern country, and I can barely be considered a prince.

The Lord of the Southern Kingdom gave me a mansion and a personal guard.

I thought it was okay, so I asked my second brother, third brother and sixth brother to help manage it.

As the saying goes, there are three caves for the cunning rabbit.

I also want to leave a way out for the Yang family. "

Yang Hong put away the anger on his face, and asked in shock: "Really?"

Yang Qi nodded quickly, and said solemnly: "It's true, it's truer than real gold."

Yang Hong pursed his lips, with a look of astonishment on his face, and said: "You boy is really lucky, you can actually get in touch with the ruler of the Southern Kingdom, and you can even become the master's brother.

I don't know that your kid is a blessing to cultivate there. "

After the shock, Yang Hong said with relief: "You are not bad, you can think of helping the Yang family to save a way out... I thought you would make such a big commotion in Shengzhou, so you wouldn't be afraid. It turns out that you have already saved back road.

Not bad……"

Yang Qi had a bright smile on his face, but his heart was full of bitterness.

To be honest, Yang Hong didn't believe it, but Yang Hong believed his nonsense.

I don't know how Yang Hong will feel when he knows the truth.

Yang Hong was relieved, and told Yang Qidao: "Your boy already has rules for doing things. You make decisions before you act, and you know how to leave a way for yourself. This shows that you have grown up.

However, you also have a big weakness, that is, you are easily impulsive.

Once you are impulsive, you will easily be controlled by the impulse and do some desperate things.

After this weakness is grasped by the enemy, it can be easily exploited by the enemy and become a sharp weapon against you.

Boy, you have to know that to achieve great things, you need to be informal.

More importantly, the heart is as hard as a stone.

This is the most important hurdle for the general.

As long as you can keep your heart and stay still, there will definitely be a place for you, Yang Yansi, in this northwest land in the future. "

Yang Qi pulled out his bare hands from under the quilt, cupped them and said, "Boy, thank you for your teaching, Uncle Hong."

Yang Hongle chuckled, and said: "It's not about teaching or not teaching. It's just some experience of being a general. Your Excellency doesn't want to tell you, I just helped you to make up this lesson for you.

Now that my mission in Fuxing Pass has been completed, I should go there too.

From now on, when you are in front of people, don't call yourself a kid in front of me.

You are already a grown-up, and now you hold the power of the three states.

Prestige cannot be lost.

You are too respectful to me, an old servant of the Yang family, and it is easy to be looked down upon. "

Yang Qi was stunned, shook his head and laughed loudly, "Uncle Hong, you have inferiored me, Yang Yansi, if I cared about other people's opinions, how could I have established such a career in the northwest.

You have always accompanied our brothers to grow up, taught us by precepts and deeds, and spent all your energy on our brothers.

It is due respect to you.

If others want to look down on me, Yang Yansi, they have to see if I, Yang Yansi, want to talk to him first. "

Yang Hong burst into tears with excitement, "You really have grown up, and you have the qualities of a hero."

Yang Qi said with a smile: "Being a hero in life, and a hero in death."

Yang Hong nodded, without further words.

After the Fuxing Pass war ended, the reason why he stayed in Fuxing Pass was firstly to get out of Yang Qi his relationship with Nanguo; secondly, to teach Yang Qi and let Yang Qi see his shortcomings .

Now that the two things have been completed, there is no need for Yang Hong to stay in Fuxingguan any longer.

Yang Qi tried to persuade Yang Hong to stay, but Yang Hong insisted on leaving Fuxing Pass.

But when he left, he was alone.

When he came, the generals of the Yang family who brought him did not follow him back.

Yang Hong knew in his heart that Yang Qi's foundation was still weak, and he needed the help of the generals of the Yang family.

Seeing this old servant who dedicated his life to the Yang family, leading an old horse, disappearing in front of his eyes alone.

Yang Qi was suddenly a little sad.

As soon as he was sad, Hou Renbao, the punching bag tied to the gate, would suffer, and if Yang Qi caught him, he would beat him up.

Yang Qi's dislike for Hou Renbao came from the bottom of his heart.

Ever since he found out that Hou Renbao had thrown one hundred thousand Han men to Jiaozhi, he had fled alone.

Yang Qi vowed to kill this guy, but he couldn't find a chance.

Now that Hou Renbao fell into Yang Qi's hands, Yang Qi naturally wouldn't let him die so happily.

However, when Yang Qi vented his anger on Hou Renbao, the person who vented his anger on him also came to Fuxing Pass.

With a wine gourd hanging from his waist, Kou Zhun rode an old donkey, wandering into the barracks, and went straight to Yang Qi's Chinese army camp.

Behind Kou Zhun, followed by a few tattered yamen servants.

Entering the Chinese army tent, Kou Zhun slumped down on the soft couch in the tent without any image when he saw Yang Qi, and slapped the case in front of him.

"Yang Yansi, I want to resign, I quit."

Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, and asked dumbfoundingly: "Who has offended you Kou Daguan again, and you want to put down the pick?"

Kou Zhun stared and said, "Except you, Yang Yansi, who in Daizhou, Shengzhou, and Fengzhou will provoke me?"

Yang Qi folded his arms around his chest, and asked curiously: "Why did I mess with you, you should tell me."

Kou Zhun said indignantly, "You plotted against me and dragged me. Now that I have a home and can't go back, do you think it's your fault?"

Yang Qi was stunned, smiled and spread his hands, and said: "I have never had any intention of plotting wrongdoing, you also know that I am a kind-hearted person, and I can't see the people of Fengzhou and Shengzhou suffering under the slavery of foreign races. , That's why I came to rescue and help them live a good life.

I am also kind...

As for you saying that you have a home and cannot go back, is it because you are homesick?
When I turn back, I will send someone to Da Song to bring your family over. "

Kou Zhun grimaced and said angrily, "Yang Yansi, where did I offend you? Why don't you let me go? Hold me tightly in your hands.

Do you know that my father wrote a letter the day before yesterday, calling me a little traitor, accusing me of helping the evildoers, and wanting to sever the father-son relationship with me. "

Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "It's not that serious, is it? Although you are helping me, you and I are both officials of the Song Dynasty now, and we haven't done anything outrageous or outrageous."

"But everybody's saying..."

"Heh... You, Kou Zhun, still care about people's words? If you care about people's words, then you are not Kou Zhun."

Yang Qi pierced Kou Zhun's face all of a sudden, and said, "Tell me, what is your purpose for coming to me this time. Don't give me those fake things."

His performance was exposed by Yang Qi, Kou Zhun smiled dryly, and said: "Two things, first, the area under your control now has changed from the original one state to the three states.
The original eight counties in Daizhou have now become three states and 24 counties.

The current number of officials is simply not enough. In many places in Toyosu and Katsushu, village elders and village elders are self-governing.

Many places don't even have county magistrates.

......"

Yang Qi frowned, nodded, and said, "Do you have any suggestions?"

Since Kou Zhun raised this question, it means that Kou Zhun has thought about this question seriously.

He must have some countermeasures in mind.

Hearing Yang Qi's question, Kou Zhun said solemnly: "The following official means that it is better to combine the land of the three prefectures into two prefectures. The original prefectural government offices were abolished and turned into two prefectural government offices.

Compared with the three state yamen, the yamen of the two prefectures are better managed, and can also reduce the appointment of officials in one state yamen.

This can also alleviate the shortcomings of insufficient officials. "

"From the state to the mansion?"

Yang Qi muttered.

From the state to the mansion, this is a tradition after the founding of the Song Dynasty, and it is also for the convenience of administration.

After all, in the Song Dynasty, states were different from state to state. Some states were vast and sparsely populated, while others had a large population and prosperity.

A state with a vast land and sparse population obviously does not need too many officials.

A state with a large population needs more officials to govern.

Thus, the policy of Youzhou Shengfu came into being.

Yang Qi carefully calculated the current situation in Shengzhou, Daizhou, and Fengzhou.

The number of talents under him to manage politics is indeed pitiful.

The method Kou Zhun mentioned is also a good one.
