Chapter 475 Your Majesty thinks that you can't do it, so the minister is willing to do it for you
Chapter 475
"His Majesty ordered Yang Xiaoguan to pay an audience."
"Father, I will go to see Your Majesty first. You should go back to your house first. I will go back after I see Your Majesty."
"Well, go early and come back early." Yang Ning nodded and watched Yang Qian quickly follow the eunuch.
His brows were knitted together, and for some reason, he always felt that his Qian'er's expression was strange today.
Especially the moment when His Majesty heard that Yu Wenshu was coming and sheathed his sword.
Yang Ning even felt that if he hadn't turned his head subconsciously, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
The intense yet fleeting disappointment of Qian'er next to him was followed by the same fleeting and determined expression afterwards.
"Cousin..." Not far away, Li Jing, who was chatting in a low voice, suddenly heard a greeting coming from behind.
Turning around, he saw Yang Ning walking towards him with a smile.
He quickly bowed respectfully and said, "I have met Duke Zheng."
The generals who followed Yang Qian behind him also bowed respectfully to Duke Zheng and his boss' biological father.
After Yang Ning exchanged greetings with everyone, he took Li Jing aside and asked carefully if anything had happened to Yang Qian during this period.
When asked, Li Jing's face was full of confusion. "No, Zijing hasn't had any abnormality during this period of time. Why did my brother-in-law think of this? Did something happen?"
"That's not true, it's just that I feel that Qian'er's attitude today seems a bit wrong..."
Yang Ning told his cousin what he had seen.
Li Jing stroked his long beard and narrowed his eyes. "He must be very disappointed with His Majesty's behavior."
"The actions of Yu Wenhuaji, Yu Wenzhi and these two people are a serious crime of collaborating with the enemy, and their crimes should be punished."
"What you mean is that Qian'er is dissatisfied with His Majesty's handling and is therefore disappointed."
"I think that should be the case. Brother-in-law, you don't need to think too much about it. You can ask him again after he meets His Majesty."
After Yang Ning left, Li Jing stroked his long beard, looked at the palace, and remained silent for a long time.

"I have met your Majesty and I have met Yu Guanglu." Yang Qian entered the inner hall and saw only Yu Shiji standing aside.
"You don't have to be polite, please get up." Yang Guang was no longer as angry as before, and his whole person looked quite depressed.
Yu Shiji, who was on the side, nodded slightly to Yang Qian and then calmly continued to stand where he was.
"Xiao Yangqing's family, I believe you already know what these two damn bastards Yu Wenhuaji and Yuwen Zhiyi have done."
"I have indeed heard about it, and everything I heard has been verified. Yu Wenhuaji, Yu Wenzhi and these two secretly instigated people to conduct salt and iron trade with the Turks."
"And today, Old Qing Yuwen's family made such a fuss in front of me, alas..."
Yu Shiji had no expression on his face, but when he looked at Yang Qian, he showed a slightly helpless expression and slowly shook his head.
The message that Yu Shiji passed on made Yang Qian understand instantly. He was afraid that the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty had softened his heart towards those two bastards who should be chopped up alive and thrown into the cesspit.
If it weren't for the inappropriate situation, Yang Qian would have laughed out loud in anger.
What kind of thing is this, that you can still be soft-hearted at this time?
Then why were you so ruthless and merciless when you slaughtered those ministers who had made countless contributions to the Sui Dynasty?
Just because the two of them have a good relationship with you, and because their father Yu Wenshu is the courtier you rely on most?
"In your Majesty's opinion, what are you going to do?" Yang Qian asked Yang Guang in a low voice.
"I am very hesitant and don't know what to do, so I specially call you two to come over and discuss it."
"You two are both my confidants and my heroes.
Therefore, I hope to find a way that will not hurt the heart of Yuwen Laoqing’s family too much, but can also give an explanation to the world.”
After hearing Yang Guang's words and seeing his expectant eyes, Yang Qian chuckled and hummed a melodious song "Liangliang" in his heart.
Apparently, my good intentions were really wasted.
When Yang Qian saw Yu Shiji lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes, he no longer hesitated, pushed the golden mountain and worshiped the jade pillar and bowed down at the foot of the steps.
"Your Majesty, I dare to ask Your Majesty, what should be done according to my Sui Dynasty laws and regulations for the crime of communicating with foreign countries?"
Yang Guang froze on the spot, speechless. Instead, Yu Shiji opened his eyelids and answered solemnly.
"Behead and kill everyone."
"Those who violate His Majesty's holy will, what should be done according to my laws and decrees of the Great Sui Dynasty?"
"It is also a serious crime and should be punished by execution."
"Those who violate the law knowingly are guilty, what should they do according to our laws of the Sui Dynasty?"
"It is also a serious crime and the penalty will be doubled..."
"Your Majesty, I have no problem." Yang Qian took a deep breath and bowed to Yang Guang again.
"I believe that according to our laws and regulations of the Great Sui Dynasty, Yu Wenji and Yu Wenzhi should be punished for their crimes, so as to serve as a warning to others."
"If we don't punish them, we will set a very bad example for the military and civilians of the world. If the law of the country can still tolerate such people, then..."
"...Little Yang Qing, that's enough!" Yang Guang's expression changed, and finally, he slapped the case with his palm and shouted loudly.
"..." Yang Qian calmly raised his head and looked at Yang Guang, who looked very ugly.
Yang Qian pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
"Could it be that His Majesty is unwilling to punish him?"
Looking at the young Yang Qian, this young and always modest minister seems to have a rare stubbornness and persistence.
Yang Guang opened his mouth, let out a long breath, and said with a helpless smile.
"It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't..."
"My beloved daughter Nanyang does not want her father-in-law to have a white-haired man to give away a black-haired man. And I have known Yu Wenqing's family for many years, and I do not want to create more barriers between the monarch and his ministers..."
"I can understand His Majesty, so I can also understand His Majesty's difficulty." Yang Qian nodded, with an expression that I know very well.
"If Your Majesty feels that you cannot do it yourself, then I am willing to do it for you."
"..." Yang Guang looked at Yang Qian, who had a serious face, and finally slowly shook his head.
"Your Majesty, I actually think the same thing as Officer Xiao Yang, but if Your Majesty doesn't want to take their lives."
"Then let's simply send them to the border areas and send them to Lingnan and Jiaozhi. At least their lives can be saved."
After hearing the words of Yu Shiji, a veteran driver, Yang Qian's eyes lit up and he agreed. "I second the suggestion."
"Liu Pei fills the border with Lingnan, the land of Jiaozhi." Yang Guang stroked his thick beard and seemed to be very interested in this proposal.
"Let me think about it carefully. You two gentlemen, please step aside first..."
"I obey your decree... However, your Majesty, I still have something to do, and I hope your Majesty will grant you permission."
Yang Qian had already stood up, but suddenly thought of another important thing and prostrated again.
"Oh? What's the matter? Xiao Yangqing's family, please tell me. As long as it's not something difficult, I will naturally agree to it."
Maybe it was because he felt a little guilty, or something else, but Yang Guang's face looked very friendly at the moment.
"I get along quite well with Liu Wuzhou, the captain of Mayi County, and several brave men from Mayi County."
"Therefore, I have the audacity to ask Your Majesty here, hoping that Your Majesty will grant you permission..."
