It’s not just the emperor who is talking about it, but also his ministers.
Huang Chunhui retired from office, and all three of his confidants left Northern Xinjiang before he took office.
I'm leaving, and my confidant is left behind, which makes people feel uncomfortable, and it may cause some conflicts. Liao Jin can't handle it well when the time comes, and it won't be good if he doesn't handle it.
Just get rid of it.
Don't worry, everyone. In this way, when we meet again in the future, we will also retain our kindness.
This is Huang Chunhui’s cleverness.
Liao Jin took over as Jiedushi, and according to the usual practice, Jiao Mingzhong would rise to prominence and become his right-hand man.
This is necessary, otherwise who would want to follow you?
But just when Jiao Mingzhong was looking forward to a bright future, Liao Jin was assassinated and fell down.
All good prospects have turned into a dream.
That kind of huge blow made Jiao Mingzhong go crazy.
Regardless of his identity, he exerted pressure in the lobby. It was difficult for Liu Qing to stand out, let alone the rest.
Anyone who objects is a fool!
But, Yang Xuan came.
Speak out your objections.
Jiao Mingzhong lost his sense of proportion and hissed: "Does the Deputy Envoy want to sit back and watch while the Prime Minister cannot afford it?"
Yang Xuan frowned, "When will it be your turn to make the decision in Northern Xinjiang?"
He didn't expect that Tao County would be in chaos after just procrastinating for two days.
A person who recorded events and joined the army was able to make a grand appearance and overwhelm Liu Qing and others.
Isn’t this special girl just pretending to be powerful and listening to politics from behind the curtain?
Jiao Mingzhong had no way out, so he bit the bullet and said: "The Eagle Guard of Beiliao who assassinated Zhongcheng is still at large, so why should we call the shots?"
"Noisy!"
Yang Xuan asked Liu Qing, "Mr. Liu, where is Zhongcheng now?"
"At home."
Yang Xuan said: "I'll go take a look."
When he goes, everyone must follow him.
Sun Yan and Jiao Mingzhong, the surrendered generals, walked together and said in a low voice: "As soon as he came, he took over the throne. Although the fight should be for Zhongcheng, you were quite disrespectful to Liu Qing just now..."
Jiao Mingzhong smiled bitterly, "If I don't take care of it, I can't live up to Zhong Cheng's years of praise. If I take care of it, I'm overstepping my bounds. After much calculation, there is no way out. In this case, why not get a reputation and be more domineering?
.”
These were words that spoke from the bottom of his heart. Sun Yan sighed, "I have offended the deputy envoy."
"I just lost my temper for the sake of Zhong Cheng. You were rude at the beginning," Jiao Mingzhong said.
Sun Yan chuckled, "Zhongcheng is lying down. We are his people. If anyone suppresses us, they are taking advantage of the situation. In officialdom, reputation is important!"
Jiao Mingzhong glanced at him, "You are really... a clever guy." He glanced at Yang Xuan again, "The deputy envoy has just arrived. If he wants to take over power, he must be more respectful to Zhongcheng. In this way, we
He is from Zhongcheng, so even if he is angry, he still has to hold it in!"
Yang Xuan stopped and turned around, and everyone also stopped.
This is the rule of officialdom and the hierarchy is strict.
Yang Xuan pointed at Jiao Mingzhong, "You stay!"
Jiao Mingzhong was stunned.
"Deputy Ambassador..."
"Yeah!" Yang Xuan looked at him, with a sharp look in his eyes.
Are you trying to vent your anger on Liu Qing!?
Jiao Mingzhong's heart tightened, "Take the order!"
Everyone followed Yang Xuan out of Jiedu Envoy's Mansion and prepared to go around to the back.
Outside, a carriage was parked.
Yang Xuan walked to the carriage and said, "There's something else going on here, An Ning, you guys go over there first. By the way, I'm busy today, so I just buy food from outside."
"Okay." Zhou Ning opened the car curtain and Yang Xuan poked his head in. He smiled at the young master who woke up and said, "A-Liang, we'll be home soon."
"Ah... Aye!"
"good!"
Yang Xuan turned around and said, "Zhang Xu, get Ma Cang."
Zhang Xu came out of a carriage carrying the horse barn with one hand.
"Horse?"
someone exclaimed.
"Yes, it's Ma Cang." Zhang Xu was holding a person with one hand, still relaxed and carefree.
Ma Cang was actually captured alive by Deputy Yang?
While everyone was shocked, they were also quite puzzled.
Liu Qing asked: "Zitai, how did you capture this man?"
Yang Xuan said: "I met you halfway."
"You bitch, you are trying to catch all the envoys and deputies of Northern Xinjiang!" Liu Qing got angry and went over and slapped Ma Cang.
Ma Cang looked at the ground in despair, his body swaying slightly with Zhang Xu's hand.
What he regretted most at this moment was his unnecessary action.
He Lianhong asked him to assassinate Liao Jin, saying that no matter whether he succeeded or not, he would flee immediately afterwards.
But he was greedy for success.
Make a half-circle around the Jiedushi Mansion, just like Chenzhou Prefecture, with the prefecture in front and the residence in the back.
After knocking on the door, he saw Yang Xuan, his expression changed slightly, and he looked a little dissatisfied and angry.
Wang Laoer was the most sensitive and got angry. The old thief pulled him back and said: "These people wanted to follow and become masters, but they didn't expect that Liao Zhongcheng fell. At this time, if you don't go too far, just endure it."
Wang Laoer said angrily: "Liao Zhongcheng's collapse has anything to do with us?"
Old thief: "..."
yes!
It’s not us who assassinated him, so why should we reflect and feel guilty?
Wang Laoer spoke in a loud voice. The servant heard it and turned around to refute, but after much deliberation, he couldn't think of the words to refute.
This kind of self-reflection comes from the customs passed down over the years.
Before others did anything, I started to reflect on myself: Hey! Did my words hurt others? Was my attitude not humble enough...
Outside the bedroom, a servant went in to report, and came out later, "Deputy Envoy Yang, please."
Yang Xuan followed him in.
There was a big bed in the bedroom. It looked like it was old. Liao Jin lay on the bed and looked up at him, "You're here."
"Zhongcheng."
Yang Xuan quickly stepped forward and held Liao Jin's hand, "I'm here."
It's hard for him to talk about this matter, but you can just say introspection: It's all my fault for being late. If I had come straight to Taoxian County instead of going home first, maybe Ma Cang wouldn't have been able to succeed.
But Yang Xuan couldn't say such excessive introspection.
There are thousands of words to say, but only three words, I'm here, are the most appropriate.
Liao Jin looked at his hands and said, "You are too enthusiastic."
I should be sad... Yang Xuan smiled bitterly, "I want to pretend to be inexplicably sad, but I think it's too fake. I think you will also feel disgusted."
"At least you didn't perfunctory me, I'm very pleased."
Liao Jin pointed to the side, and after Yang Xuan sat down, he said: "These days, people come to visit me every day, saying that Zhongcheng will definitely recover as before, or that auspicious people have their own destiny...
After listening too much, I felt very good. But when the people left and the excitement was gone, I looked at the empty room and suddenly felt that those words were all empty words and lies.
If it weren't for those empty words and lies, I might be able to calm down a little bit. But after hearing those words, I know they are false, but I can't help but want to continue listening to them every day. I think the same is true for being flattered!"
"Isn't it bad?" Yang Xuan asked.
Liao Jin shook his head, "If it can continue like this, I can live in lies for the rest of my life. But I know that the fun will not last long. When that moment comes, all the fun will turn into regret.
Rather than living in illusion, it is better to face reality. At least, I feel that I am living now."
"I'm really happy that you can see through all this."
If someone else faced such a desperate situation, they would most likely collapse.
"I have also been desperate at night, but I don't want my family to worry." Liao Jin smiled, "Is it safe on the road?"
"Macang led his men to ambush him halfway."
"He's not very lucky."
"Yes, he is in the front yard now. You see what to do with him."
"Capture alive?"
"right."
Seeing the sharp look in Liao Jin's eyes, Yang Xuan felt that Lao Ning was a good person.
He was looking at Liao Jin.
Liao Jin's attitude towards Ma Cang represents his subsequent thoughts on himself.
Is it a clean and tidy way to take office, or is it forced to come out and take charge of the overall situation?
It is said that Liao Jin had no feeling in his lower body, but he could come out sitting on a special chair.
Liao Jin took a deep breath, "I guess you've already asked?"
"Yes, Ma Cang said, this method uses inner breath to break something in the spine. After breaking it, the lower body, even from the chest down, will lose consciousness."
In another world, this technique is called nerve severing.
"I asked about metaphysics. Do you know that Zhuojing is also a medical student. There are many things in the human spine that control the human body. They are so densely packed that it is difficult for the human eye to see them. Once they are cut off..."
Yang Xuan didn't say the rest.
Liao Jin was silent for a moment, "I tried, but I couldn't sit up with my own strength. At that time, I was completely despondent and felt that... the world had collapsed."
Yang Xuan can understand this feeling.
"I have been so strong for half my life. When I get old, I can only rely on others to carry me. How can you accept it? At that moment, I cursed all the gods and Buddhas in the sky. The gods and Buddhas... did not bring disaster.
It makes me a little disappointed."
This is a death wish!
Yang Xuan sighed in his heart.
"I calmed down and thought about becoming an official and going to Chang'an to visit my old friend. But I was thinking..." Liao Jin said sarcastically: "I betrayed her at the beginning and now I am being carried to see her. What does this mean?
?Are you deliberately making her feel uneasy, or are you trying to use this to gain sympathy? I can't bear it, and I don't even bother with it."
"I have been thinking about it for a long time. If I were to become an official now, Chang'an would be overjoyed."
Yang Xuan nodded, "They have long been looking forward to someone else taking charge of Northern Xinjiang."
Liao Jin looked at him, "I have also thought about it. Since this is the case, what does all this have to do with me?"
"After I die, I won't care about the flood." Yang Xuan smiled.
"Yes." Liao Jin was also smiling, "But I thought of my husband. He has been supporting me all these years. If his body rests, there is no doubt that he can live a long life.
He sits in the lobby every day, seemingly with drooped eyelids, but in his mind he is thinking about various places in Northern Xinjiang. Thinking about the possibility of a war... He keeps thinking like this, spending all his efforts every day. Why? Just reluctant to give up.
!”
"When I first came out of Chenzhou, I looked at the people and everything I knew so well, and I felt the same reluctance to give up. If someone wants to destroy everything, I think I will fight them to the death!"
"Yes! So after much thought..." Liao Jin looked at Yang Xuan, "Zitai."
"You said."
"Pei Jiu's hard work, my husband's hard work, and the hard work of countless soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang cannot be just thrown away. I am in the back house, and you are in the front. How dare you?"
Isn't this just listening to politics behind the curtain?
Yang Xuan looked at Liao Jin and nodded.
Liao Jin relaxed and said, "Okay!"
Yang Xuan stood up and said, "From now on, I will come here every day."
Liao Jin nodded, "There will be some people who threaten you. I won't tell you how to deal with them."
Yang Xuan nodded, "You know that I am the most kind and generous person."
Walking to the door, Liao Jin said: "Zitai."
Yang Xuan turned around.
Liao Jin hesitated for a moment, "That's all, go ahead!"
Yang Xuan went out and heard Liao Jin's order: "Hang Ma Cang outside the city gate and dry it in the air!"
Fortunately, it is not torture.
"Xiao Xuanzi, why did Liao Jin refuse to go to the front, but asked you to step up to the front?"
"Being carried out of the house and sent to the lobby every day, the officials below will gradually develop a sense of slackness, and will..."
Yang Xuan appeared in the lobby again.
Without hesitation, I walked to that position and sat down.
Next, the officials and generals saluted.
"I met the deputy envoy."
"sit!"
Seeing everyone sitting down, Yang Xuan had some unreal feelings.
When he first chose to come to Northern Xinjiang, his goal was this location.
At that time, Cao Ying thought hard and considered all the situations thoroughly. She woke up Yang Xuan late one night and said with a serious face that I thought that Lang Jun would be in charge of Northern Xinjiang in twenty years.
Yi Niang was overjoyed when she heard this and said that twenty years later Yang Xuan would only be in his thirties, and he would be in his prime.
But now!
Happiness suddenly appeared in a way that caught everyone off guard.
He was in an agitated mood, but his many years of officialdom had taught him how to hide it.
So in the eyes of everyone, the deputy envoy who walked to the stage looked melancholy at the moment.
Is he worried about the future?
At this time, he should explain his attitude.
under.
How do we fix it?
It's a confident and confident way of doing things.
Or the humble Xiao Gui and Cao Sui...
Yang Xuan spoke slowly.
"My family is moving into a new house, and we're all going to have a drink later."
Everyone: "..."
Where are the three fires?
Yang Xuan stood up and said, "Don't give any gifts. Don't give them at all."
The officials felt distressed if they sent too much, but they were worried if they sent too little, fearing that they would offend Yang Xuan.
The last resort is not to give it away.
"Then what should we bring?" someone asked.
Yang Xuan said: "With a mouth."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
That afternoon, everyone came to Yang's house.
As soon as I entered, I saw that the houses were brand new.
“It’s all good stuff!”
"This withering work is amazing!"
Everyone looked around and felt awe-inspiring.
“It cost a lot of money!”
"It doesn't seem luxurious, but if those timbers were thrown away, they would be worth more than the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion."
Everyone was talking a lot.
Han Ji accompanied the guest and said with a smile: "Ms. Yang, you are not short of money!"
Yang Xuan was drunk and was about to go back to the backyard when He Lianyan came.
"Mr. Lang." He Lianyan helped him, "Someone is here from Prince Liang's Mansion in Chang'an."
After drinking the hangover soup, Yang Xuan received the envoy from King Liang.
"The young man is having a hard time at home."
"Why?"
"Those people all know that the young man has a good relationship with the deputy envoy. The king values the young man and wants the young man to step over him and take over the Prince Liang's Mansion. Everyone knows that those people are worried about what will happen if the young man takes over the Prince's Mansion.
Joined forces with the deputy envoy and King Wei, and took action one after another."
"What means?"
"There are rumors that the young man's moral corruption is spreading everywhere. If he continues like this, his reputation will be ruined."
The envoy smiled bitterly and said, "What does the king mean? Does the deputy envoy have any ideas?"
He Lianyan glanced at Yang Xuan and thought that Prince Liang was an old fox in the clan. Would he have any means to do this?
So, what does he mean by asking the husband to ask for advice?
Helianyan's eyes lit up.
This is an attempt to build a relationship with the husband... As expected, once a person's status changes, friends will come uninvited.
Yang Xuan said calmly: "This matter is simple!"
…
Station.
Several horses came galloping.
"Change horses! Prepare water!"
The visitor dismounted and threw a sign.
Yi Cheng glanced at it and trembled, "Quick, prepare your horse."
After the visitor left, the postman asked: "Who is coming? It's gloomy."
Yi Cheng said: "It's the stake of the mirror stand."
The postman said: "It looks like he is going to a funeral!"
Snap!
The postmaster slapped him in the face, and when the postmaster bared his teeth, he said, "Yes! It's like going to a funeral!"
The three horses changed horses without changing people, and headed straight to Chang'an.
"Your Majesty, Liao Jin was assassinated and is bedridden!"
When the emperor heard the news, he put down the book in his hand and said calmly: "The weather is good!"
Ta-ta-ta!
Two cavalrymen rushed into Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty, Liao Jin, the governor of Northern Xinjiang, sent someone to deliver a memorial."
"Let me take a look."
The emperor read the memorial, suddenly left the memorial on the ground, got up and went inside.
"Keep playing music, where is your concubine? Keep dancing!"
Han Shitou went over and picked up the memorial.
I saw a line of text...
——I was lucky enough to escape. Although I have bad conduct, my management is fine!
