"Your Majesty, I think this matter is inappropriate..."
The person who spoke was Yang Gongren. After not seeing each other for a few days, this man seemed to be in a better mood. He talked with Wang Ze for a while and became the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. This was originally a mixed result.
One of them was promoted, but he offended Wang Ze quite a lot. In the past, in his eyes, the Jinyang Wang family was just that, but then again, today, it is a different matter.
The Yang family has lost its deer, and its descendants are scattered. How can it still retain the honor of the day? And Jinyang is the territory of the Wang family. It is obviously not a wise move to fight with the Wang family here.
He had been very angry before, and since his character was indeed on the upright side, he didn't think too much about it.
When the matter came to an end, and he was about to be promoted to the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Yang Gongren finally came to his senses.
No matter how wise the King of Han is, or whether he is a wise king, if Yang Dalang can't take a good look at his own situation, it will really be unjustifiable, and he has been an official for many years.
So, after returning home, Yang Gongren thought a lot. He first met with his brother Yang Xu in the midst of his busy schedule, discussed it for a long time, and then went to the palace to see Empress Xiao.
This was Yang Xu's suggestion, because he had been with the King of Han for a long time and felt that the King of Han did not like people who were heartless and unjust, so Empress Xiao lived in Jinyang Palace. If the two brothers ignored it, they would treat it as nothing for their own benefit.
My sister-in-law will definitely be disliked by the King of Han Dynasty.
On the contrary, it is better to interact openly. After all, the character "Yang" on the two people's heads cannot be changed. Furthermore, even if Empress Xiao is a woman and has no heirs, it will not make people too afraid.
This is actually the way out for the Yang family that the two brothers are thinking about. The legacy of the previous dynasty, if you want to change the family and be a stable official, propriety is the most important thing.
In this way, their thinking immediately broadened, and they could look at the feud with the Jinyang Wang family from another angle.
If you offend the Wang family of Jinyang, you may have difficulties in your future actions, but as officials under the rule of the King of Han, the Yang family's children need to stay away from rich families like Wang Pei.
If the two families had not been abandoned by them long ago, then marriage with the King of Han is actually the most important means for the Yang family to survive. You must know that this was what the survivors of the Northern Wei, Eastern Wei, Northern Qi, and Southern Dynasties did.
, gradually integrating their blood into the new royal family.
Suddenly enlightened, Yang Gongren followed his advice. After coming to Jinyang, he went to the palace to see Empress Xiao for the third time. This time, his attitude was different from the previous meeting in a hurry and perfunctory...
After returning, he went to the Han Palace to meet with the King of Han. The conversation was of course official business, but it was not conspicuous. At this time, officials from all over Jinyang were busy. Zhongshu and the chief officials of the six departments were coming one after another to report official business to His Highness the King of Han.
People close to him met earlier, and newcomers like Yang Gongren had to stay in the last wave, lining up with Yun Dingxing, which made Yang Gongren very angry.
Of course, such official rules do not need to be stated explicitly. After being an official for a long time, everyone will naturally be able to grasp the appropriateness. No matter how angry you are, don't try to change anything, otherwise, you will offend more than one or two people.
Just like Chen Xiaoyi, Wen Yanbo, and Su Dan could stay in the palace of the Han Dynasty to block the Han Dynasty. When word spread, everyone could laugh a little, and it was just an anecdote, and no one would take it seriously.
And if others do the same, they will not know how to advance or retreat. I don’t know whether the King of Han is happy or not. Chen Xiaoyi and others will definitely not like it. After hearing this, his colleagues will also sneer and sarcastically say a few words. The people below
It will be more unpleasant to speak, and once it is repeated, your reputation will no longer be needed.
Yang Gongren had been an official for many years, so naturally he would not do stupid things. When he came out of the Han Dynasty Palace, he said casually that with the permission of the Han Dynasty, he picked two aides for himself from the Han Palace.
The small actions are constant, but very organized. In fact, the essence of officialdom is contained in these small actions. Not only did His Highness the King of Han laugh it off, but when Chen Xiaoyi and others heard about it, most of them secretly said in their hearts that Yang Dalang would benefit from advancing and retreating.
He is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, and he is indeed the right person.
As for major matters, such as studying criminal law, filling up the official staff of the Ministry of Punishment, and issuing government orders, Yang Gongren also gradually came up with a plan while thinking hard, and put it into writing, preparing to submit the letter.
In other words, next year will definitely be the year when the Ministry of Punishment establishes its authority. It will all be known what political achievements you have, whether you are suitable as the Minister of Punishment, and whether Yang Dalang is talented.
Having settled his position at first, and with so many things to do, Yang Gongren finally got into the zone. It was very tiring, but people like them, as the old saying goes, a man cannot be without power for a day, and the rest
They all come second, and this is especially true for nobles who are in the midst of war.
Today, Li Po once again convened everyone to discuss military and political matters. The number of people was greatly reduced compared to before. Only the chief officials of the six departments were here. After the conference, small meetings must be held one after another. This has been the case since ancient times. No need to be surprised.
.
As for the envoy sent by Ashina Luoheng, Li Po threw it out for everyone to discuss and see how to deal with it.
Old people like Chen Xiaoyi immediately felt the difference. You must know that when it comes to Turks in the past, most of them were decided by the King of Han. For example, in the previous wars with the Turks and in the interactions with the Turks, the momentum displayed by His Highness the King of Han...
People who don't know must think that this person has a deep hatred for the Turks. As subordinates, Chen Xiaoyi and others are frightened every time, but when the results come out, most of them are dumbfounded.
In other words, everyone felt that once the King of Han heard the word "Tujue", he would be extremely excited and always ready to rush in and take a bite.
The fact is that the Turks were indeed bitten with blood by their great king and were generally in chaos. The best proof is that the great nobles of the Turkic royal court like Ashina Luoheng sent envoys to make peace with them.
Now, the Turkic incident was suddenly thrown out by Li Po and put in front of everyone, which made everyone around the King of Han feel a little weird. They couldn't help but think, you must have had an idea in your heart, and you want to take advantage of it.
Who to hit?
Therefore, the very energetic Yang Gongren was the first to speak, and he obviously raised objections. Even Li Po was a little surprised.
What a good thing, but you actually think it's inappropriate? This guy must not know how many Turks I have killed, and he was frightened by a mere "poop".
Li Po was a little dissatisfied. As usual, he immediately showed a bright smile on his face and said, "Oh? What's wrong? Come and let me know."
Upon seeing this look and hearing these words, Chen Xiaoyi straightened up immediately and stopped talking. He was old and did not want to play such tricks with the king again.
He Chou was also not young. He squinted his eyes as if he was about to fall asleep, but the corners of his mouth drooped. He was thinking with disdain, the disciples of the Yang family are so impatient, no wonder they have brought so much chaos to the world.
I am running around here and there and can hardly spend my old age peacefully.
Su Dan pursed the corners of his mouth to prevent a smile from appearing on his face, and Wen Yanbo frowned. He was deeply affected by this and disliked such a king.
Wang Ze snorted secretly. There was no need to mention the self-cultivation of the Wang clan leader, but he could not help but feel gloating in his heart.
Wang Zhibian and Yu Chixin, who happened to arrive, lowered their heads deeply and had absolutely no idea of rising out.
Yang Xu's hand trembled in the recording room, almost destroying the previous record, and then he began to worry for his brother in his heart. Just when he should be cautious, why can't the eldest brother endure it? Isn't this temper enough?
?
But Yang Gongren didn't care about all that, he just stood up and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I think that I have an alliance with the Turks. Although it is not shown in writing, in the past two years, we have been at peace with the Turks and have not interfered with each other. This is all thanks to
this."
"Now that I have a relationship with the Turks (minister), once it is reported to the royal court, it will definitely be displeasing to the Khan, or it will be harmful to border affairs. At that time, the timing is not right, and this is one of them."
"Secondly, when there is contact with foreign countries, we must strive for their benefits and trade, Xiaolier, so...does the king want to make plans in Mobei? Otherwise, how can we see the benefits?"
"Furthermore, Dingxiang County was originally a land of... the Sui Dynasty, but now it has been invaded by the Turks. All our people with lofty ideals wish they could go north to drive out the tigers and wolves and restore our old land. But now the king has an army and has conquered the Turks many times, which has made him famous.
Spread throughout the world, the name of this great righteousness is also tied to Ashina Luoheng, which is tantamount to cutting off land and making an alliance.
In today's world, people are divided and divided. Once they hear about it, they will definitely criticize it. Wouldn't the righteous deeds of the past be ruined in one moment? This is to sacrifice the great righteousness and gain small profits."
Huh? The Yang family can actually raise a martyr?
The smile gradually faded from Li Po's face, and even with his ability to change faces, he was inevitably caught off guard and showed a bit of embarrassment.
Because although this statement sounded exaggerated, after thinking about it, Li Po felt that it made sense. However, he actually felt that dating Ashina Luoheng was a bit useless. This was corroborated with what Yang Gongren said, and Li Po couldn't believe it.
The sentence "Don't admit it" and "take small profits at the expense of great righteousness" hits the right point.
His contacts with the Turks were made through diplomacy. Even if others said that he was in collusion with the Turks, they would always make harsh remarks. Being able to communicate with the Turks royal court was something that the princes dreamed of, so in this matter, he occupied the upper hand.
High Point.
If he was strong enough to force Ashina Luoheng to join in, that would be fine, but at the moment he was busy fighting Li Tang, abandoning the Turkic royal court in the north and fighting with Turkic generals like Ashina Luoheng.
Well, it will put him in an awkward position both internally and externally.
Yes, this is a matter of bad timing, because he is not yet able to concentrate on facing the behemoth of the Turks, so any rash action will bring unpredictable consequences.
Li Po pondered for a long time, and the eyes of others looking at Yang Gongren were much more complicated. No matter how many small actions they made, they could not match the weight of these words, because this is the concrete expression of talent, intuitive and strong...
