Chapter 407 Delicious
The location of Huangyang Road is a bit special. Ten of the ten people who were qualified to be the governor in the past were unwilling to come to this place. A big river separates north and south, and the climate of the three northwest roads in the north to the north becomes worse and worse. When it reaches Shanbei Road, which is the northernmost end of the Great Sui Dynasty, it is actually not far from the 100,000 mountains in the northern Liao area. The four roads on the south to Huangyang Road become richer and richer. Huangyang Road is adjacent to the northwest, and has to take care of the people north of Huangniu River every year, which is tantamount to increase the burden. It is normal to do it well, but if you don’t do it well, you will be criticized.
Who can be the governor? Who can go to other places to work? Who can come here to work hard? Even if you work hard for ten years, you can't achieve any brilliant political achievements.
Therefore, the people of Huangyangdao are also happier, because every governor was chosen by the emperor with great effort. People with mature people and stable temperaments. Such people will eventually get more benefits when they are officials in the local area.
The same is true for Yang Yanye. He is a person who does not seek merit but does not seek to be wrong. In his opinion, since the emperor handed over Huang Yangdao to him, he must clean up.
When he was in office, he said that the four words "I only want to be a smooth and stable" when I went to this place. Yang Yanye's ability was beyond doubt, otherwise he would not have been able to turn hundreds of thousands of rebels on the north bank without the imperial court dispatching troops to guard the troops.
Although Fang Jie suspected that the rebels and Luo Yao had already been in contact, the rebels did not dare to make any decisions about Xinkoucang in Huangyang Road. But if the rebels crossed the river, can't they steal the people without robbing Xinkoucang? Once the rebels crossed the river, the Huangyang Road would be like a farmland that was bitten by a locust plague.
In the past two years, Yang Yanye has been working hard to protect the people of Huang Yangdao. He is not old at the age of old, but his hair is not black.
Since the rebels were north of Huangniu River, the Governor set an example, reduced his salary, and donated all the excess food from his own mansion to organize the people to brave the people. The Governor did this first, and the officials below had to do whatever they wanted or not.
But now, Yang Yanye can no longer maintain it.
Luo Yao forced him to deliver food and deliberately sent people to fight with Minyong County troops. A while ago, the Wen Xiaodao, who was under Luo Yao, said that several of his subordinates were beaten to death by Minyong, and led hundreds of elite cavalry into Minyong's camp, and he grabbed dozens of people and chopped his head on the spot. The angry Minyong blocked Wen Xiaodao in the camp and was tense. If Yang Yanye had rushed there quickly, he would have really started fighting.
Yang Yanye was not afraid that the people of the people who were injured by the left vanguard, but he knew that Wen Xiaodao must have come prepared. He dared to enter the camp with only a few hundred cavalry. Once the people of the people took action, a large number of elite soldiers of the left vanguard would pounce on him immediately. At that time, the one who suffered losses would still be far inferior to the people who were left vanguard in training and equipment.
But because of this, Yang Yanye knew that he had been criticized for being cowardly behind his back.
The people of the people were resentful and he blamed himself. He was like the people of the people of the people of the people of the people of the first vanguard at the time, hoping that the moon would come and share some pressure. But now he realized that what he had been looking forward to was a group of devils who were even more vicious and cruel than the rebels.
In fact, now, Yang Yanye has vaguely guessed what Luo Yao wants.
Luo Yao raised troops in the southwest, and the court knew about this, let alone him? But I am afraid that no one except Luo Yao himself knew how many soldiers Luo Yao raised. The wealthy four southwest roads are not a problem to support 400,000 troops all year round. If Luo Yao’s purpose is Xinkoucang, it only means that the number of soldiers Luo Yao raised in the southwest has been so large that even the four southwest roads cannot afford to support them.
He needs food in Xinkou warehouse.
Yang Yanye, who had changed into plainclothes and had a little decoration, had been thinking about these things in his heart before walking into Wanhe Tower. The other party understood that he had heard a little. He knew that this young man was very great. At a young age, he had excellent results in the martial arts academy entrance examination. In the emperor's rebellion, this young man made an indelible contribution. Such a person will definitely become a great man in the future. Now he takes the initiative to come to him and meet in private... Yang Yanye has been tidying up his words in his heart. When he arrived at the door, he found that he was a little nervous, so he couldn't help but smiled with a joke.
A person who has been in the officialdom for decades is actually nervous about seeing a young man?
Fang Jie was even more nervous than him because he knew that when he met this Governor Huang Yangdao, once Luo Yao knew about it, his plan would collapse. He didn't know about Yang Yanye and did not know whether the rhetoric he had prepared could impress him. And his idea was too risky. Once it was implemented, his future would basically be cut off.
This retreat is called Luo Yao.
If Luo Yao knew what Fang Jie was planning behind him, he would be afraid that even the father-son relationship would not be saved. But Fang Jie seemed to have no intention of relying on Luo Yao to achieve certain goals from beginning to end. If it were someone else, he might feel that his happiness would be necessary. With such a father who is in power, would he still have to be in trouble in the future? But Fang Jie never thought about it like this.
And next, whether it is success or failure.
They are all in the conversation.
...
...
When Fang Jie saw Yang Yanye, his heart couldn't help but tremble. The old man in front of him, who was wearing a cloth robe, looked older than he did from afar. He had never dealt with Yang Yanye, or even had never talked. But he had seen the Governor from afar and was deeply impressed.
His backbone seemed to be pressed by a mountain all year round, and he couldn't stand it even if he wanted to.
The wrinkles on his face were as deep as the gullies that could be seen everywhere on the northwest ground of Huangniu River.
"I have understood the humble position, and I have met the Governor!"
Fang Jie calmed down and quickly leaned over to salute.
Yang Yanye quickly made progress to support Fang Jie and refused to accept his tribute: "As the imperial envoy, how can Lord Fang bow to me?"
"The errands of humble officials have been completed, so they are no longer imperial envoys. Now they are just a fifth-rank Ranger General in the army. How can they not behave with courtesy?"
Fang Jie took a step back and took the big gift seriously.
Yang Yanye did not dodge anymore and smiled and said, "I have heard of Lord Fang's name for a long time. I have always wanted to see you, a rising star. Although I am just in Huang Yang's way, your name is still very well-known here."
Fang Jie was kind to him and asked Yang Yanye to sit down.
After the two of them exchanged greetings, they fell into silence at the same time, and then smiled awkwardly at the same time.
Fang Jie stood up after a while and clasped his fists at Yang Yanye: "Sir, since you are willing to come, it means that you still have some trust in the humble profession and are very grateful to the humble profession. So I don't plan to take any more turns, nor do I want to try my best to find something to test your thoughts."
He paused and said, "I have something to ask for!"
Seeing that he spoke solemnly, Yang Yanye sat upright and said, "Mr. Fang, please speak."
Fang Jie walked a few steps forward, sat down next to Yang Yanye's body, lowered his voice and said his thoughts. He deliberately controlled his speech speed and tried his best to express the meaning of each sentence. And the governor in front of him, who had experienced countless storms, couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise after hearing his thoughts.
"Everyone says... Everyone says that Lord Xiao Fang is brave and courageous. Today I have seen it!"
Yang Yanye sighed: "I am afraid that I will be unable to obey such a bold idea. This matter is too much to do. Once there is any mistake, I can't afford it. This is not only the life and death of tens of thousands of people, but the life and death of the entire Huangyangdao people... I have worked hard for so many years to ensure peace in the country. If I follow Lord Fang's ideas, it may turn the situation around, but it is too risky."
Fang Jie expected Yang Yanye to react like this. He remained silent for a while and continued, "My lord is right. This method is indeed risky. Once there is anything wrong, it will immediately cause millions of people to fall into dire straits. But lord, since he is a minister, have you forgotten what is the most responsible thing?"
Yang Yanye said angrily: "It seems that there is no need for Lord Xiao Fang to teach me how to be an official!"
"grown ups!"
Fang Jie stood up again and bowed deeply: "I really don't mean to offend you. It's just that things are so far. Do you have any other choices? Although I am young and knowledgeable, I also know that some things cannot be avoided. Adults want to compromise, but can I really ask for it?"
"Now the adults can no longer produce food, right?"
Fang Jie raised his head and said, "I just said it more clearly. Over the past few days, I have been living in the left front guard army as he watched hundreds of thousands of troops point their knife at the north side of Huangniuhe, but turned to you and the Min Yong under you... Is it the same every night when I think about how to solve this dilemma. Huang Yangdao, Xinkoucang... is it for the rebels or Luo Yao, the ending... is the same?"
When talking about this, Yang Yanye's face obviously changed a little.
"I know that lord can't trust me, and maybe I think I was sent by Luo Yao to test lord."
Fang Jie paused for a moment and continued, "I dare to ask you a question... Your memorial was released in Huiyang City? You can't tell Your Majesty the whole story. Are you just waiting like this? The adult has already had white hair for Huang Yangdao, so he watched Huang Yangdao eventually unable to escape the disaster? Although the method of Beizhi is dangerous, at least, you can deliver the news. If you want to send the news to the capital, you can only cross the river."
"There are packs of wolves in Hebei, and there is a tiger entrenched in the family. The reason why the wolves dare not cross the river is this tiger. But if this tiger arouses the wolves, the pack of wolves may not be able to bear it. The adults are determined to block the war across the Huangniu River and do not want the people to suffer the suffering of war. But in this way, they are inaction and passively waiting... I am afraid that what the adults are afraid of will still happen."
"What Luo Yao wants is the granary, not the people of Huangyang Road. But once the rebels cross the river, they want everything. Therefore, Luo Yao must not sit idly by and watch the rebels go south. Now our only chance is to lead the wolf to fight with the tiger. Then take the opportunity to send the news out and wait for the court to find a way to solve it."
"I'm short of staff!"
Fang Jie said solemnly: "I hope you can fulfill your wish!"
Yang Yanye's face kept changing. After pondering for a long time, he still shook his head.
He shook his head, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
"I will disband Min Yong tomorrow."
Yang Yanye stood up and breathed a sigh of relief: "You are right. I can't even make them eat enough now. A meal every day is a luxury. They come with passion, but I can only give each of them a bowl of porridge that can see the bottom of the bowl every day... As an official, I don't have the face to see them again."
He looked at the food on the table and smiled and said, "I am the second-rank governor. I am almost a very powerful minister. Outsiders seem to be incredible and have the power to cover the country. But now I am so angry that I want to pack and take away the food when I see the food, and the money and food are tight. Except for the grandson who is growing, the rest of the mansion can't eat meat for ten days. Haha, if I don't mind, I will take it away."
Fang Jie felt sad and didn't know what to say.
"If it disperses, it will be dispersed."
The thin old man picked up a piece of cooked meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly and tasted it carefully: "It turns out that the meat is so delicious... why haven't you noticed it before?"
He only took a bite and drank the wine in the cup: "If the people's courage dispersed, they will naturally not be controlled by me. They either return home or seek others' resignation. If a group of people organized themselves to cross the river to find trouble for the rebels because of their resentment, I would not be able to control this matter."
"tasty!"
He said it again, then got up and left.
When Fang Jie heard the last sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up. He stood up straight and then bowed deeply: "I am humble, thank you for your kindness!"
Yang Yanye waved his hand and walked out: "I said everything that Minyong did after he was disbanded is nothing to do. Why do you thank me? I didn't help you, and I couldn't help you, but... I still have to take this table away. My grandson said that Wanhelou's braised lion head has been muttering for more than a month. I have to thank you today."
