Chapter 190

Shu Palace
"Your Highness, the Yang family must have come to look for you." Cen Wenwen couldn't believe that Yang Hongli, the new head of the Hongnong Yang family, would not come to find his son-in-law after such a big event.

"Teacher, you know that since the incident with Dou's family, the Yang family has not been able to find a suitable Patriarch, and Yang Gongren's troubles, otherwise, how could Lu Zhuanggong get the position of Patriarch.

Now he urgently needs some achievements to gain a firm foothold, so he asked Xiao Wang, can you help? "

Both Li Chengqian and Li Tai have a good father-in-law behind them who can help them, why can't they do it themselves.Besides, once Yang Hongli can control the entire Hongnong Yang family, his strength will definitely increase by three points.

Cen Wenwen didn't answer Li Ke right away, he was weighing whether the risk was worth taking, and the emperor was furious this time.

Otherwise, he would have pushed him to the end and fled to Shaozhou. He heard that Jiaofang Secretary was already preparing to accept the family members of the Yang family.

Li Ke took a sip and handed over the tea: "His Royal Highness, it's not difficult to help them, but have you ever thought about it, the Yang family doesn't know how to restrain themselves, and the tree is so big that it attracts the wind. If it goes on like this, it will hurt us."

Cen Wenwen originally disapproved of this marriage. As Li Ke, a branch of the former royal family like the Yang family should naturally keep a certain distance, but he couldn't help it because of Concubine Yang's persistence.

Cen Wenwen, of course Li Ke knew about your concerns, and immediately explained: "Grand Lu Zhuang's modesty is not only appreciated by his father, but also popular in the court. He said that as long as he is firmly established as the head of the Yang family The location must be cleaned."

Li Ke, the old Taishan Yang Hongli, was the nephew of Yang Su, Minister of the Sui Dynasty.During the reign of Wude, Li Yuan made Yang Su's meritorious service to the Sui Dynasty, and ordered Yang Hongli to inherit the title of Prince of Qinghe County, and the official worshiped the crown prince Tongshi Sheren.

But because of discord with King Qi, he was expelled from the East Palace and took refuge in Li Shimin, who was still King Qin at that time.After the Battle of Xuanwumen, he moved to Zhongshu Sheren and Cen Wenwen worked in Hongwen Hall together. Later, because he was appreciated by the emperor, he was promoted to the governor of Jingzhou Metropolitan Governor's Office and became a feudal official.

Although the contact time is not short, there is always something about him that Cen Wenwen can't see through, which is why Cen Wenwen is worried about him.

"Teacher, Changsun Wuji's daughter has entered the East Palace. The Crown Princess who saw her hand, can his eldest grandson Wuji let go? If you can't seize this opportunity, all your preparations to separate their nephews and uncles' plans for successors will be in vain. ah."

Seeing that Cen Wenwen remained silent, Li Ke poured him another cup, and continued: "If you don't hurry up to help the enemies in the Eastern Palace, when the time comes, when the crown prince cleans up all the people, you said he will come back Are we the first to clean up?"

What Li Ke said is very reasonable. Judging from the attitude of the East Palace towards King Wei in the past, as long as Li Tai does not rebel, nothing will happen.Let's just talk about the matter of the passage this time, what has been done, the prince still made things right for him without complaint or regret.

"Well, the veteran can try it, it shouldn't be a big problem to save the old and weak women and children of Yang Gongren's lineage.".
"Jingren, in the past two days, many people have pleaded for Yang Gongren and asked me to pardon his family members. Have you heard anything down there?" After speaking, Li Shimin relaxed his muscles and bones, and looked at Cen Wenwen with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I have heard something. You know that Yang Gongren was the servant of the Huangmen during Emperor Wude, and many people have received his favor. This popularity is still very good. This time, he really has nothing to do with alienating the Tian family. Redemption, but if he disposes of his family like this, it will definitely hurt His Majesty's reputation."

Well, after listening to Cen Wenwen's words, Li Shimin nodded, and then waved again, motioning Cen Wenwen to sit down: "Then what do you think I should do?"

"I think that it is enough to deal with Yang Gongren and his sons. As for the women and children who will be confiscated into the Jiaofang Division, they should be sent back to the Yang family. Firstly, it shows His Majesty's heart of virtue, and secondly, it is also considered to be a way for him to help the military The merit of the German emperor."

This Cen Wenwen really has an exquisite heart, not bad.If he just dealt with his whole family like this, wouldn't it appear that he was too narrow-minded.

"Okay, let's draw up an order. The men of Yang Gongren's family will be assigned to Shaozhou, and all the women, children, and children will be returned to the Yang family. Tell them to keep their identities in mind. The heavenly family's grace is innumerable."

Of course, Cen Wenwen understood what the emperor meant. Over the years, the Hongnong Yang family had a lot of contacts with the survivors of the former Sui Dynasty, which violated the emperor's taboo. Otherwise, why would the emperor be so heavy handed just because of such a trivial matter.

If this can be used to ransack the family and exterminate the family, then even if Wei Zheng's head is chopped off a hundred times, it will not be enough.Why have I never seen the emperor treat him seriously, why should I do it?

"No, I will deal with it after I go down. The Yang family will be grateful and serve the master faithfully if they receive such kindness from His Majesty."
At noon the next day, Yang Hanyu, the eldest son of Yang Hongli, went to the Shu Palace to send a letter of worship to Li Ke, and brought a lot of gifts.

"How is it, brother, have you received the imperial decree of the Zhongshu Provincial Classics and Biography?" Li Ke asked with a smile after inviting Yang Hanyu to the study, and both parties were seated.

"Haha, I received it a long time ago, but I also want to thank Your Highness and Lord Cen for this. With this as a foreshadowing, my father's position as the Patriarch of the Yang family is finally secured."

"That's good. I can help my father-in-law to sit in this position, and my efforts are not in vain." During the conversation, Li Ke also took the tea handed over by Yang Hanyu.

"Shangyuan Festival is coming soon, and my father will bring my younger sister to Beijing to report on his work. At that time, the old man will definitely come to the door in person."

Although Li Ke is Yang Hongli's son-in-law in terms of seniority, no matter in terms of etiquette and strength, Li Ke is not something that the Patriarch of the Yang family, who has just climbed up from the ground, can't afford to offend.

Seeing Yang Hanyu's humility, Li Ke couldn't help waving his hands, and Gu Zuo said in a big dialect: "Hey, what happened to my father-in-law when he came to Beijing should be visited by this junior, how dare he work for him, besides, we are all a family." Why do people talk about two different things?"

"However, if father-in-law wants to keep the position of Patriarch for a long time, some tails still need to be cleaned up. You also know that father-in-law is a person who misses old feelings. If you can forgive those women and children today, you can forgive Yang Gongren tomorrow. This is impossible. It’s not safe, do you understand what this king means?”

What the hell, that's right, this Yang Gongren has always been against their family, and since the family planned to elect their father, he has been against them everywhere.If it wasn't for buying people's hearts this time, who the hell would save them.

What's more, the old man has been in the court for so many years, if after a period of time the emperor's anger subsides, and someone is there to help him, then he will have to continue to make trouble with the old men when he comes back.

Thinking of this, Yang Hanyu gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will find a way to make them disappear." After speaking, he had a drink with Li Ke.

After sending Yang Hanyu away, Li Ke immediately summoned Quan Wanji, and the two sides whispered again.
