The sweet days passed quickly, three days passed in a flash, and today was the day for Yang Fan and Xiao Niangpi to return home.
According to the custom of the Ming Dynasty, the bride should go back to her natal home with her husband on the third day after her marriage to visit her parents. It is commonly known as returning home.
Tu Shan's house, study room.
This is the most secret place of Tu Shan's family. It is heavily guarded outside. On an Arhat bed, Yang Fan and Tu Shanyong sit cross-legged opposite each other across a small mahogany table. Tu Shanyue makes tea for her husband and father from the side.
Since she got married and became Yang Fan's woman, Xiao Niangpi seems to have changed her temper and is completely obedient to Yang Fan.
She seems to be trying to be a gentle and considerate woman.
It's just that the change was so big all of a sudden that it made people feel a little uncomfortable. Tushan Yong pinched his teeth at the sight.
"What are your plans for the future?" Tu Shanyong asked.
"Sir, I have already written a memorial. Bingchan and I are going to resign from our posts in Dongchang and Jinyiwei." Yang Fan said calmly.
Tu Shanyong was a little surprised. He took a deep look at Yang Fan and then at his daughter. Tu Shanyue also nodded.
"This time the major events in the capital are over. I have done everything I can do for Your Majesty. It is no longer appropriate to stay in the capital where right and wrong are right and wrong. People need to be self-aware. Don't wait until you are disliked before leaving." Yang Fan
He took a sip of Longjing and spoke slowly.
Tu Shanyong sighed with emotion and said slowly: "It's great that you can think so. Originally, I was worried that you were young and couldn't see the situation clearly. If you can think of this step, your future achievements will be limitless."
Tu Shanyue looked at her father and said cautiously: "Dad, you have to be careful in this place in the capital. If your Majesty has other intentions, dad will have to retreat bravely."
Tu Shanyong was not angry, but said with a smile: "You think His Majesty is so miserable. You are worried that he will kill the rabbit and kill the dog."
"It's not that I have any prejudice against His Majesty, but I can see it from what happened during this period." Yang said calmly.
Yang Fan and Tu Shanyong had nothing to hide. In these days, when they were living together, their in-laws were like grasshoppers on a rope.
Tu Shanyong looked at Yang Fan and asked, "His Majesty has always given you promotions, aren't you still satisfied?"
"It has nothing to do with this. What I'm talking about is His Majesty's thoughts. His Majesty used me because he had no choice at the time, and he took a big risk. It was only when he was in crisis that he was willing to take risks. Now the situation
The changes have been great, and he has too many choices. At this time, it is time to retreat bravely. Now that the king and his ministers are in harmony, I will return and follow the transformation, and everyone will be happy. Don't wait until there is a rift, which will be unsatisfactory."
Tu Shanyong was silent. There was no need to finish his words. Yang Fan was very candid if he could say it to this extent.
Yang Fan's visit to the capital seemed to be in harmony with the emperor and his ministers, but in fact Yang Fan never gained the emperor's complete trust.
It's very simple, Yang Fan is always under surveillance.
In almost everything he does with Yang Fan, he has a confidant to help him, especially when sending Lady Feng Sheng out of the palace, His Majesty even invited Queen Yi'an to come out, which was actually to monitor Yang Fan.
This kind of surveillance is not a secret deployment of personnel, but is carried out openly.
Although he kept promoting Yang Fan, he never gave him real power and territory. This is particularly worth savoring.
Yang Fan's territory is still the original 100-household office, which is still the saline-alkali land. Although it has been upgraded to the 1000-household guard office, in theory, his subordinates can manage three 1000-household offices.
However, not even one of the five thousand-household offices under Zunhua Guard was allocated to Yang Fan. In fact, Yang Fan's territory did not expand at all.
As for giving a commanding officer and a commanding colleague.
That is also the reward that must be given to Yang Fan for his merits. What Yang Fan established is the merit of Qingtian's protection. It is more than enough for a commander. For a small Zunhua City, it is by no means too much.
Why didn't His Majesty give it? After all, he still didn't want to give us the territory. The difference between a deputy commander and a commander in Zunhua is the territory.
Military households in the Ming Dynasty were all hereditary. If the commander of Zunhua was given to Yang Fan, the territory of Zunhua was equivalent to being given to Yang Fan.
Why does Your Majesty never fully trust Yang Fan? This has nothing to do with merit. No matter how hard Yang Fan works, it will be useless.
Because Yang Fan relies on himself to support the army, rather than funding from civilian officials. Your Majesty has no means to control Yang Fan.
Although the position has been promoted, the area of Rushitan cannot support three thousand-household homes, not even one.
This is to control Yang Fan's strength and prevent him from growing too big. At the same time, Yang Fan can still use it when he needs it for something.
"We and I will not hang out with Jinyiwei in Dongchang from now on. It really doesn't mean anything. I guess His Majesty may give us a noble and empty position in Jinyiwei as a show of favor, and we will do it. I offered it out of humility.
Your Majesty will still feel embarrassed and maintain this relationship between monarch and minister when we meet in the future. It will not look good if you wait for Your Majesty to bring it up in the future."
Tu Shanyong was speechless. To say that he knew His Majesty far better than these two children. His Majesty is a person who can neither share joys and sorrows nor wealth.
As for being frank with your subordinates, you are really overthinking it.
It was Qin Wangzheng and Li Shimin who did that.
Tu Shanyong was a treacherous, cunning, sullen and cunning person, with a temperament like a jackal and vicious eyes. If he could tell something was not good, he would either pass it on to others or hide away long ago.
Right and wrong are hard to get involved with.
That's why I can do well with His Majesty.
He knew very well that if he ran a shady errand for His Majesty, something would happen and the secret would be leaked.
Your Majesty loves face. He will never make mistakes. The only ones who can make mistakes are his ministers. He will never abandon his own face and protect himself.
No matter how capable the minister is, his face is not as important.
Gufu/span himself can only be sacrificed.
Your Majesty is definitely not a person who can share the joys and sorrows with his ministers.
Your Majesty has always been stingy when it comes to official titles and is reluctant to give them.
Especially an official position with real power, let alone a title.
Moreover, he has an impatient temper, is eager for success in doing things, and is very prone to do bad things if he doesn't know what he is doing and is dictating to others.
Even if you are impatient, you will get angry at others. Therefore, many people around Your Majesty do not dare to speak after suffering the consequences of telling the truth and being brave enough to do things.
At this time, a confidant outside the door came over and whispered, "There are orders from the Fifth Army Governor's Palace and His Majesty's handwriting to Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang is not in the military camp, and the messenger has sent the order to the mansion."
Yang Fan and Tu Shanyong smiled bitterly at each other. They were really talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
As soon as Yang Fan's memorial came up, the order from the Fifth Army Commander's Office and His Majesty's handwriting came down.
Yang Fan went out and took it back. As expected, it was an order for Yang Fan to lead his troops to return to Zunhua within three days to perform their duties.
Xiao Niangpi frowned and said, "Husband, Your Majesty is going to attack Duke Wei."
Yang Fan could only smile bitterly: Now His Majesty doesn't need him to deal with Duke Wei, there are many people who have come forward.
Tu Shanyong joked: "Young men should be warned by sex, and a good son-in-law should take this as a warning, hahaha."
Tu Shanyue gave her father a dissatisfied look.
Rough words or not, there is still a price to pay for Yang Fan's acceptance of Lin Yueru.
Your Majesty wanted to take advantage of Governor Wei, so he was taken away in advance.
What else could Yang Fan say except a wry smile.
At any time, don’t look at what he says, but look at what he does. See the truth in the matter.
As long as the incident is over, he can't hide any thoughts.
Yang Fan knew very well that he had to rely on himself to get what he got from coming to the capital, instead of relying on others, even the emperor.
Therefore, he was willing to take risks and accommodate the forces represented by Lin Yueru.
If you pay, you will get rewards. Since you are involved in official circles, it is impossible not to offend others. It is just a matter of weighing the pros and cons.
In addition to the military orders from the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army, there is also a handwritten edict from His Majesty.
His Majesty approved the request of Yang Fan and Tu Shanyue to resign from all powerful positions in Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and change Xinghe Tuanlian to local military status, and asked Yang Fan to lead troops to Zunhua to guard within three days.
Yang Fan retained the position of commander of the Jinyiwei, but without the Xinghe regiment training within the Jinyiwei, Yang Fan was just a mere commander, with no senior staff and no farts.
This is completely false.
Tu Shanyue was granted the title of Mrs. Gaoming and was given the title of fifth-grade Yiren.
The real powerful person who led the Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty was the person in charge of the Jinyiwei and the commander of the Jinyiwei. He was not the commander of the Jinyiwei.
If the commander of the Jinyiwei does not have the words "zhangjinyiweishi", then he is in vain. This is a tradition that began in the Yongle Dynasty.
Luo Yangxing is currently in charge of the Jinyi Guards. His official position is not high, and he is three levels lower than the commander. However, he is in charge of the Jinyi Guards and commands the general affairs, so he is the head of the Jinyi Guards.
At the beginning, in order to facilitate the work, Chongzhen integrated Xinghe Tuanlian into the Jinyiwei system. Therefore, Yang Fan, a thousand-year-old family, had very great authority in Jinyiwei.
Because he has people, he can get things done.
The presence of Yang Fan with three thousand iron troops inside Jinyiwei severely weakened Luo Yangxing's authority and control over Jinyiwei.
Yang Fan knew very well that this was a special practice during the special period of Chongzhen. Now he could no longer play a role, and Chongzhen wanted Luo Yangxing to completely control Jinyiwei. If he didn't leave, he would be disliked.
So he resigned himself.
People need to know their interests and know how to advance and retreat.
Tu Shanyong teased Yang Fan because Yang Fan accepted Lin Yueru, which made the emperor a little worried about him and worried that his position would be unstable for the sake of beauty.
So we need to move him and his army away first.
Then deal with Duke Wei.
Yang Fan had already noticed that His Majesty was a very suspicious person.
Don't hang out in front of such a person, otherwise you will be easily suspected, and sooner or later something will happen.
Tu Shanyong also smiled bitterly when he looked at the two orders. Giving Yang Fan a commanding officer was really nothing. It was just a false title without a territory. If Yang Fan went back as a Qianhu, it would be really unreasonable.
"Your Majesty relies so much on civil servants, I'm afraid the future will not be easy." Yang Fan has nothing to say. He just feels that your Majesty will regret it sooner or later if he relies on civil servants. But what does this have to do with him? He can go back and deepen his career.
Three-thirds of an acre is the norm.
