Chapter 193
Early the next morning, Wang Jian hurried to Yang's mansion. He thought about it all night. The task Li Linfu gave him was not serious, and he could even go along with it, but he couldn't bear the threat of losing his son anymore.

Or maybe the hundred taels of silver was like giving him a cup of chicken blood. Although he didn't sleep all night, he was still full of energy.

"My lord, there is an urgent matter in my humble position!"

Yang Li was about to go out to meet Mrs. Guo Guo, he waved his hand and said, "Get in the car and talk!"

The two got into the carriage, and the carriage drove slowly. Wang Jian said: "I thought about it all night last night. I think we think about Li Linfu too simply. He will definitely impeach Yu Wenjing once."

“How come you see?”

"The impeachment is not strong enough this time, it is easy for Yu Wenjing to hide from him, and even a lowly position can see it, but Li Linfu can't see it?
Li Linfu has always dealt with political opponents only if he doesn't take action. Once he does, he must be extremely ruthless. Therefore, the humble judge concluded that Li Linfu must have a backhand, and it is a backhand that makes Yu Wenjing unable to stand up. "

Yang Teng nodded, "You are right, so how should I deal with it?"

"The envoy must also have a second candidate? Otherwise, he will be very passive and lose his position."

Yang Teng was a little confused: "You know I don't know many high-ranking officials, so who can I recommend?"

Wang Jian smiled slightly and said, "Didn't the envoy have allies when launching the Sun Jiliang case this time?"

Wang Jian knew Yang Li very well, knew that his intelligence was worrying, and he might not be able to understand after he said it for a long time, so he used the method of guiding him to think about it. Once he figured it out by himself, it was his decision, and he would stick to it. , will not change easily.

Yang Li thought for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up, "You mean Zhang Jun?"

"Do you think he is suitable for you?"

Yang Li slapped his fist, "It's him, so suitable. Minister of the Ministry of punishment, his qualifications and positions are enough, and he is the eldest son of the former prime minister, and his brother is the son-in-law. He is the most suitable."

Yang Li was deeply impressed by Zhang Jun. When he visited Zhang Jun, Zhang Jun was very humble and made him feel comfortable.

Yang Li smiled and said: "If I remember correctly, Zhang Jun's father, Zhang Shuo, was overthrown by Li Linfu and almost lost his life. Zhang Jun became the prime minister, enough for Li Linfu to drink a pot. The son will avenge his father!"

Wang Jian secretly despises, what does it mean that he remembers correctly, this allusion was told to him by himself.

Wang Jian applauded without showing any emotion: "It's better for you to see clearly!"

Yang Teng was very proud, he stroked his beard and laughed straight away. He suddenly remembered something and frowned, "But Zhang Jun is not from the military!"

Wang Jian had already said something, and he said calmly: "Don't worry, my lord, the requirement for military background is actually tailor-made for Yu Wenjing. there is none left."

Yang Li was greatly moved, "Fortunately, I have this staff member, otherwise I really don't know what to say when I face the saint today?"

Wang Jian's heart skipped a beat, "Your envoy will face the saint today?"

Yang Teng nodded, "Last night, there was a decree from the inner palace to ask me to face the saint today, but I don't know why?"

Wang Jian thought about it, and quickly said: "Master, if the Holy Majesty asks your attitude towards Yu Wenjing, I must remind you that this is actually the Holy Majesty's temptation to you!"

Yang Teng was taken aback, "Trying what?"

"Testing the envoy whether to prioritize profit or morality is related to the future of the envoy. If the answer is wrong, the envoy will really be demoted to the local government."

"why?"

"Because Yang Guozhong is going to Beijing, the Holy Majesty will definitely not want Shijun to destroy Yang Guozhong's future, so Shijun must be very careful."

Yang Li was not cautious, but became nervous first, "Then how should I answer!"

"Just tell the Holy Majesty directly that Yu Wenjing indulged his grandson to do evil, and his reputation in the court and the public is too bad. Cooperating with him will affect the reputation of the Yang family. I hope the Holy Majesty will consider it carefully. The appointment of the Prime Minister should be based on virtue first. As long as you answer like this, the humble official will guarantee So that you can stay in Chang'an safe and sound."

"Okay! I'll listen to you."

The carriage arrived at the gate of Mrs. Guoguo, and a large and gorgeous carriage drove out of the mansion. This was Mrs. Guoguo's carriage. In a bullock cart parked nearby.

Wang Jian recognized at a glance that it was the demon Taoist Shi Jingzhong. It seemed that this guy came here to fool around with Mrs. Guo Guo last night.

At this moment, a guard rode forward, clasped his fists at Yang Li and said, "Madam, please come over!"

Yang Zhen nodded, and said to Wang Jian: "I will take Madam's carriage into the palace, you can go back! Have a good rest."

"Your Majesty, do what I say, and there will be no mistakes!"

"I see!"

Yang Li got out of the carriage, walked a few steps, and got into Madam Guoguo's carriage. The carriage started slowly and drove towards the Daming Palace.

In the carriage, Yang Yupei's face is full of spring breeze. She was well nourished by Shi Jingzhong last night. She is holding a round mirror and applying a thin powder on her face. Seeing that her complexion is different, and the emperor finds out that she is fooling around with other men, she will never think about being summoned alone again in the future.

"Second child, Yu Wenjing may be dying!" Yang Yupei said straight to the point.

Yang Tie frowned, "Is it the matter of being impeached yesterday?"

"It's not that simple. I met the imperial concubine last night. The imperial concubine said that Yuwenjing's grandson had an affair with the concubine and was exposed. The three concubines were all killed. Yuwenjing's grandson touched Nilin. Even Didn't even make it to dawn, and was decapitated in the sky prison overnight, the emperor hated Yu Wenjing deeply."

Yang Li secretly admired Wang Jian's foresight, and Li Linfu really had a second hand, he sighed: "Then Yu Wenjing is really doomed, it would be nice if he could save his life."

After Yang Yupei put on her makeup, she closed the mirror and said, "Then do you have any other suitable candidates?"

"I recommend Zhang Jun!"

Yang Yupei felt a little strange in her heart, "Why do you have a backup candidate?"

"I learned that Yu Wenjing was impeached because of his grandson's crimes. I was worried that he would not have a chance. I discussed with Mr. Wang for a long time, and we all thought that a backup candidate should be considered. Zhang Jun is my ally. I think he is the most suitable prime minister."

"Is Zhang Jun reliable?"

Yang Teng nodded, "His father Zhang said that he was overthrown by Li Linfu and almost died. I believe he must very much hope to overthrow Li Linfu, so that he can comfort his father's spirit in heaven!"

Yang Yupei was persuaded. From this point of view, Zhang Jun is indeed the most suitable candidate for the Yang family.

The carriage arrived at the Daming Palace and entered the harem directly from the left Yintai Gate. Yang Yupei took out a medicine bag and sachet and hung it close to her chest. She would exude a strong smell of medicinal materials.

Yang Li secretly despised him, he knew that today he was going to face the saint, so why bother fooling around with Shi Jingzhong, and now he started pretending to be sick.

"Second, let me make it clear to you, don't even mention the affair between Yu Wenjing's grandson and the concubine, let's just pretend we don't know, the Holy Majesty wants face."

"I understand!"

The two came to Linde Hall, waited for a while, Yuan Siyi came out and said: "The Holy Spirit is here, you go in!"

The two often sang here, and they were already familiar with the road. They walked into the imperial study all the way, and saw the emperor Li Longji sitting in front of the imperial case drinking tea, and he seemed not in a good spirit.

Yang Yupei stepped forward softly and gave a blessing: "The concubine sees Your Majesty!"

Li Longji looked up and saw that Yang Yupei had applied powder on her face, and asked in surprise, "Why did the third sister put powder on her face?"

"The concubine suffered from a cold last night and her face was withered and yellow. She was afraid that His Majesty would not like it, so she applied powder. Please forgive me!"

Li Longji suddenly smelled a strong smell of medicine, he immediately said with concern: "Go to the palace to rest! Let the imperial doctor take a look."

"The concubine is not in a good spirit, everything else is normal!"

Li Longji nodded, at this moment, Yang Chen stepped forward to salute, "See Your Majesty!"

Li Longji sighed and said: "Yang Shilang, you should have heard about Yuwen Shangshu's grandson, what do you think?"

Yang Li admired Wang Jian so much that he had expected everything. He hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, I just found out yesterday that the Yuwen family has a bad reputation in Chang'an, which really shocked me. In any case, the humble official thinks it should be done." Virtue comes first, and my ministers clearly oppose him as prime minister."

Yang Yupei was stunned. When did the second child suddenly become enlightened and answer so well?
Li Longji was also a bit unexpected. He thought that Yang Tong would try his best to defend Yu Wenjing, but he didn't expect that at the critical moment, Yang Tong would actually know the righteousness. Although Yang Tong is usually stupid, this is rare.

Li Longji nodded, "Yang Aiqing is right, morality should come first at all times!"

He asked Yang Yupei again, "Since you are against Yu Wenjing, have you discussed whether there is a suitable candidate?"

Yang Yupei immediately understood that the Holy Majesty had rejected Yu Wenjing, she said slowly, "What do you think of Zhang Jun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Your Majesty?"

"Zhang Jun is not bad, he is qualified to be a prime minister. The Yang family and Zhang Jun have a good relationship?"

Yang Yupei smiled and said, "We had a cooperation not long ago!"

Li Longji remembered that Zhang Jun's son was also involved in the Sun Jiliang case.

Li Longji said happily: "I know, I will think about it carefully, third sister, let's go back to rest and recuperate first! I hope you recover soon."

Yang Yupei rolled her eyes and hinted at him: "Your Majesty, maybe the concubine will recover tomorrow!"

Li Longji's eyes trembled suddenly, his affair with Yang Yupei made him feel good, and Yang Yupei's debauchery on the bed made him want to stop.

Li Longji smiled and said: "I look forward to your recovery tomorrow!"

He said to Yang Zhen again: "I am going to let Aiqing's official position be changed, and it is more suitable for Aiqing to be the Minister of the Taifu Temple!"

Yang Teng already knew yesterday that he had no hope of becoming a prime minister. The one who was chosen was Yang Guozhong, and he had to give up his position in the household department to Yang Guozhong, but fortunately, he was not demoted to a local official.

He hastily saluted and said: "I obey His Majesty's arrangement, because I am afraid that I will not be capable enough, and I will fail Your Majesty's expectations!"

Li Longji was a little impressed by this Yang Zhen today, and he answered very decently. He smiled and said, "Just because you know that morality comes first, you will be able to do it!"
