?

Yang Luwang looked at the tired-looking Yang Daosi, feeling sad in his heart, and said softly: "Uncle, go and have a rest. I'll call you if you need anything."

Yang Daosi nodded, put the blanket aside, pointed to the chair beside him, and said, "No rush, I've been too busy these days and haven't had a good chat with you."

Yang Luwang sat down and said, "Uncle, please tell me."

Yang Daosi had just woken up, straightened his thoughts, and then said: "You have already served as the Chief Minister of Political Affairs. What are your plans for the next step?"

Hearing this, Yang Luwang's heart beat faster: "Uncle, I'm still young."

Yang Daosi waved his hand and said: "Youth is not a big problem, ability is the most important. You are already thirty this year, and you are not too young when you are thirty. Your sixth uncle has been re-elected as the Right Prime Minister, but in fact you are just a

It’s excessive, there’s a truth to it, I won’t say it, but you know it in your heart.”

Yang Luwang nodded. In the past two years, with Yang Daosi's full support, he had become more and more valued by the emperor in the court, and his reputation in the family was getting higher and higher.

Yang Luwang said softly: "Uncle, with Li Zhong here, I'm afraid it won't be my turn to be the right prime minister."

Yang Daosi smiled: "Your sixth uncle was born as a military general and has served in local areas for a long time. The position of right prime minister will not last long. In the future, this position must be given up. These are not important. What is important is that we, Yang

The family must not be far away from the center of power. There must be someone from our Yang family in the political hall. This person is you. After your sixth uncle is Li Zhong. The two of them have been taking turns for more than ten years. At that time, you were also in your forties.

At this age, if you can make political achievements, establish your own prestige, and become the right prime minister, you will not have no chance."

Yang Luwang gritted his teeth and said, "I'm just afraid that I won't do well and live up to my uncle's expectations."

Yang Daosi chuckled and said: "The times create heroes, and the times are by your side."

Yang Luwang pursed his lips, cupped his hands and said, "Please teach me, uncle."

Yang Daosi thought for a while and then said: "Your father is stationed in Shuzhou and has 50,000 troops. He has always been jealous of the court. You should serve as a bridge among them, so that the two sides can communicate and avoid misunderstandings."

Yang Luwang was shocked and understood what Yang Daosi meant. His father had been in charge of military and political power in Shuzhou for a long time. He said he had an army of fifty thousand, but in fact it was more than this number. Yang Daoan had too much power in Shuzhou.

The military strength is second only to the five major vassal towns in Hebei. In recent years, it has always been far away from the imperial court. Zhao Zhi has always been deeply suspicious of this, but he did not dare to act rashly. Now that Yang Luwang is serving in the capital, this is an opportunity. If there is

He coordinated among them and solved the affairs of Shuzhou in a peaceful and gentle way, so that everyone could be happy.

Yang Luwang glanced at Yang Daosi, hesitated, and finally said: "Uncle, you often say that the Yang family cannot have no military power, but it cannot have too much military power, otherwise it will not even have the ability to protect itself, and my father is too old.

When the time comes, the military power of Shuzhou should be passed to me in the future. When that time comes, as the Prime Minister of the imperial court, the emperor asks me to hand over the military power of Shuzhou, what should I do?"

Yang Daosi shook his head and said silently: "You misunderstood what I meant. I am not asking you to hand over the military power of Shuzhou, but to allow Shuzhou to have more contact with the court, or to express an attitude.

The Yang family is loyal to the imperial court and will never rebel. You have to be sure of the strength involved, do you understand?"

Yang Luwang pondered for a moment, nodded, and understood something in his heart.

"I will write to my father to inform my uncle of his intentions and to ask him not to confront the court. If we work together, we will benefit both sides, but if we divide it, we will suffer two harms. My father should be able to understand this truth."

There was a smile on Yang Daosi's face. The Right Prime Minister's party was the Yang family's shield, and the 50,000 troops in Yang Daoan's hands were the Yang family's sharp sword. With the combination of the two, no matter what changes occurred in the political situation, the Yang family could maintain

Undefeated.

The two were talking.

Yang Daosi smelled some strange smell, and felt that the temperature in the room had increased a lot. At the strange moment, a large amount of smoke poured into the room from the gaps around it.

Yang Luwang also felt something strange, and quickly stood up, walked to the door, and pulled hard, but the door did not move at all.

"Lu Wang, why don't you open the door?"

Yang Daosi stood up and asked aloud.

Yang Luwang pulled the door hard, but eventually it started to fail to open. He turned around and said urgently: "Uncle, the door can't be opened."

Yang Daosi was stunned and couldn't open it?

At this time, the fire was raging outside, and Yang Luwang had a look of panic on his face. He pulled the door desperately and shouted for help.

Thoughts flashed through Yang Daosi's mind, and finally the picture stopped at Yang Binglin.

"Uncle, we can't get out."

Yang Luwang came back and said urgently, with a cry in his voice. The fire spread extremely quickly and had already poured into the room.

Yang Daosi slumped down on the chair, his eyes closed, and there was anger and deep sadness on his face.

Yang Daosi pursed his lips tightly for a while, and finally said through gritted teeth: "You traitor."

Outside the door, a figure stood there quietly, silently looking at the fire ahead.

The fire spread quickly. Not only Yang Daosi's study, but also more than ten surrounding houses were devoured by the raging fire.

"Lord, someone is coming, we should leave."

Several strong men gathered behind Yang Binglin from all sides, led by Yang Taiyi.

Yang Binglin looked ahead in a daze. Before the incident, his troubled mood calmed down as the fire raged. However, another, heavier mood also rose spontaneously. Yang Binglin could feel it.

, deep down in my heart, there seems to be something that is quickly disappearing, and I am about to lose it forever.

Yang Binglin turned around, pressed his left hand on his chest, with a look of despair on his face, staggered forward, and murmured to himself: "It's gone, nothing is gone."

After saying this, Yang Binglin closed his eyes, fell straight to the ground, and passed out.

Late night, Imperial City.

In the side hall of Changle Palace, Liu Congxi is resting here. Zhao Zhi cannot be without his attendants. Liu Congxi and Wang Anmao are on duty for ten days, and they must stay by Zhao Zhi's side no matter day or night.

Urgent shouting and knocking came from outside the door.

Liu Congxi woke up from her sleep, sat up straight, and shouted: "Who is it?"

"Uncle Fifth, it's me."

It's his nephew Liu Fu. At this time, if there is nothing important, he will not disturb his rest.

Liu Congxi took a cloak and put it on his body, then stood up and opened the door. He saw Liu Fu with a look of panic on his face.
