“Scare me?” The original focus was still on the person who left Hu Ying, but because Xu Youzhen’s words were really aroused. “Tell you, Master Xu, this officer has been on the battlefield before, and he can be regarded as crawling out of the dead. I have never seen what kind of scenes. He said he wanted to scare me, hmph! I am afraid that you do not have that ability. .”

“Okay, very good.” Xu Youzhen slapped her hands after hearing this, expressing appreciation. But then he said with a serious look: “Yang Shan, do you know that there is no way in front of you, and you are already a dead end?”

“A dead end?” Yang Shan pretended to listen I don’t understand, but in fact I was shocked. Some things are just what he thought about in the heart and have not been finalized yet, but how could this Xu Youzhen know about it? He is just a newly appointed Ministry of Justice High Official that’s all, even though he is in a high position. He is still just a new minister, and he shouldn’t know that many Southern Ming’s secrets.

Seeing that Yang Shan still didn’t admit it, and didn’t want to face the facts, Xu Youzhen knew that it would be impossible not to expose some drastic information, and immediately said in a righteous manner: “Lord Yang, you It is the life of 17 years old. After that, the king of Yan Zhu Di rose up (1399) and launched the “War of Jing Nan”, and you were rewarded in the ceremony because of your participation in defending the city. Yongle Emperor first year of Emperor’s reign, changed to Honglu Temple’s preface. Honglu Temple is in charge of the ceremony and ceremony. The preface is from Ninth Rank. Although the official position is small, you can often see the emperor. You “great style, sound spit loud and bright, Gong Jinzhi” The Emperor Yongle of Ming Zhu Di was always in the spotlight. Later, the progressive officials entered the Honglu Temple Cheng. After Ming Renzong ascended the throne, he became the Honglu Temple Qing. Soon after, he was promoted to the Ministry of Rites Left Assistant Minister, also in charge of Honglu Temple, Isn’t it?”

Listening to Xu Youzhen talking about his life and past, Yang Shan was not surprised. You can find things like this if you have the heart. So he nodded, “Yes, what you said is right, keep talking?”

“Okay.” Seeing that Yang Shan would not enter the coffin or cry, Xu Youzhen did not decide to stay either I got my hands and continued: “You were lucky in the Tumu Fortress battle. You were rescued by Duke of Zhongdan. Then you went to Nanjing with Emperor Yingzong and created the situation of Southern Ming. You are also considered This old by speaking of which. Official, it’s a heavy minister, but when Emperor Yingzong established Southern Ming, he won’t be at all when he rewarded officials. On the contrary, you are still the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites. Do you know why this is?”

Without waiting for Yang Shan to explain, Xu Youzhen has already given him the answer, “Lord Yang, outsiders say you are upright and eloquent. But in fact, you have your own bottom line in what you do. This bottom line, you don’t at all, like most officials, choose to enter the river as mud, but fall in love with lotus flowers and use the set of getting out of the silt without staining. It is precisely because you abide by your bottom line. If you are willing to do things for profit, Emperor Yingzong will not choose you as a High Official.”

A High Official must not only be able to do things, but also be able to do things. But you only know the former. Regarding the latter, you have offended a lot because of your bottom line. If Emperor Yingzong really hands the Ministry of Rites into your hands, it will cause chaos soon, that is the worst thing. Not to mention, because of your unnecessary uprightness, you have offended Emperor Yingzong’s close ministers Cao Jixiang, Menda and the others. Later, because of your talent, Liu De High Official threatened the immediate boss. Hehe, a man who has been an official for so many years has been able to stand up enemies everywhere, and he has forced himself to a dead end. To be honest, it is really admirable. “

Xu Youzhen’s words seem to come to an end, but Yang Shan has already been shaken.

Speaking of being an official for so many years, he has not thought about why he can’t go further. , Left Assistant Minister became Ministry of Rites High Official. But every time of the partial life, he was almost able to succeed. But that position is far from the horizon, and it seems to be close in front of him, making him hope again and again When I was in trouble, I faced the blow of disappointment again and again.

Finally one day, Yang Shan figured it out, fearing that because of his own bottom line, the practice of refusing to turn a blind eye in case of trouble is fascinating. I don’t like it, you can’t put power in your own hands. But even if you realize this, the so-called Country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change. How can Yang Shan change easily.

It’s just something that I figured out after thinking about it for many years. Now that Xu Youzhen is so casually broken, how can he not be surprised?

And what surprised him more was that the other party knew about himself With Liu De, Cao Jixiang, and Menda, such things can only be understood by others who want to understand, but only if they are very familiar with themselves. Could it be that this Xu Youzhen has already noticed After arriving at me, and collecting my own information from various sources?

After a surprised look in his eyes for a long time, Yang Shan shook the head painfully, not thinking about the other party at this time. How to know these things, but what he will do next, is it really as the other party said, he has no way to go?

“What? Why didn’t you talk? “Seeing Yang Shan’s eyes were surprised at first, and then revealed the attitude that everything doesn’t matter, Xu Youzhen had a premonition and asked Yang Shan.

“What do you want me to say?” Didn’t you say everything, I have nowhere to go? “Yang Shan shook his head with a look of despair. There was darkness in his heart, thinking that he had devoted his youth to Great Ming. After spending most of his life, he has gone through the fire on the knife many times, but in the end, it is still It is unavoidable that a family is destroyed, how can it not be disappointing.

Yang Shan looked disappointed and completely fell in Xu Youzhen’s eyes, and he knew there was something to say. All this It went even better than I thought. I thought Yang Shan would die for a while, so he would only pick the time to say the following words, but now the other party has figured out everything, even frustrated. , Then it’s time for him to show his hole cards. “Lord Yang, there is indeed no way to go forward, but why don’t you want to take a step back? The ancients said, take a step back and broaden the sky! “

“Step back? “For a while, Yang Shan was also a little confused by Xu Youzhen’s words. But when he understood the general meaning of the other party, he shook the head again, “There is no way to go back. The task at this time cannot be completed, so I can return. When it comes to Nanjing Capital, it is available again. Those people will not let me go, and Emperor Yingzong will not let me go. Even my family will be affected. “

Speaking of family members, Yang Shan’s expression clearly shows a little bit more warmth, but it’s just a flash away that’s all.

“Yes, family! Who has no family? The reason why we worked so hard, apart from hoping to stay in history, is to make our family live a little better that’s all. But sometimes, this small requirement is often difficult to achieve. Unfortunately, we sometimes boast of His Highness disciple, saying that we are in power, and everything is just a joke that’s all. It’s just…just Lord Yang, your life is very good, you have been favored, so you still have a way to retreat, so that not only will you be fine, even your family will be fine. “Xu Youzhen took his family as the starting point, and suddenly turned his words to what he really wanted to express today.

Before listening to Xu Youzhen talking about his family, this also made him involuntarily thinking of it. Wasn’t the dream when I was young because I wanted to live a better life with my family?

Following these words, I wanted to join Feifei. Suddenly, the voice changed. It became something that some people liked him, and this slowed his spirit in this brief moment, but his thoughts seemed to have stopped, and he needed to slowly digest the content of this sentence.

It seems to be After a few breaths, Yang Shan suddenly looked up, “Master Xu, what did you just say?” “

“I said that if someone fancy you, he will give you a way to survive, and it may even be a broad and open road in the future, but you really need to carry something on your back. I don’t know if you want to . “Xu Youzhen stared closely at Yang Shan, waiting for his answer.

“Give me a way to survive?” What do I need to do? “Yang Shan still doesn’t quite understand, but he probably knows that besides a dead end, there is another way to choose. That’s enough.

“What I did is very simple, but I just need… “The so-called partition wall has ears, even though there are only two of them left in the room, Xu Youzhen still adopted the method of “biting his ears” when talking about the next thing. It can be seen that the matter is serious.

Yang Shan first listened with his ears upright, but soon the complexion greatly changed, and the whole became excited. I don’t know whether this excitement was because of anger or happiness. In short, his face was flushed.

“Lord Yang don’t have to be too excited, there is still time for you, it’s just not much. Well, your handwritten letter from Madam should be coming soon. When the time comes, you are making your own decision. Now let’s take a good rest. For my bluntness, no matter what you want to do, whether it is a good or bad thing, you must first have a good body, hahaha. “

Xu Youzhen left, but Yang Shan was left alone on a chair, a little unconscious and paralyzed. At this moment, he thought of many, many…

Hu Ying has already left. I am afraid that he has already guessed what will happen. He is not suitable to stay here for such a thing. After leaving the post, Hu Ying has become much more taciturn, and he has felt it. What, it’s just not clear. So before making a final decision, he still needs to take a good look and listen.

Jianing Residence.

Just leave. In two years, when Yang Chendong returned here, he had already changed his status and became the Duke of Zhongdan of Great Ming. I heard that both the Northern Emperor Zhu Qiyu and the Southern Emperor Zhu Qizhen liked him very much. He has a deep friendship.
