"What's wrong? They've all become mute!" The more silent everyone became, the more irritable Yang Guozhong became. They were all prime ministers, so why did others do so gloriously, but he was always so thankless? Others were re-elected for seventeen or eighteen years,
No matter how much you do, you can still be safe. You are walking on thin ice with fear, but most of the sky above your head has been stepped on with a roar?
You said that the wicked and smoky An Lushan rebelled if he wanted to. What excuse could he find? He just used the banner of "Qingjun side, punish Yang Ni". There are a lot of unreasonable bastards in the court who followed suit.
, saying that the Prime Minister's improper handling of affairs led to today's disaster. Bullshit! They are all talking bullshit with their eyes closed. Without taking a closer look, who was it back then?
The commander-in-chief Wang Zhongsi had too much military power, so he was taken down on the basis of a false accusation, which caused a generation of generals to die in depression in their early forties? Didn’t take a closer look, who used the excuse of "Human nature is straightforward and sincere"
, single-handedly promoted Anlushan, and handed over the three towns of Fanyang, Hedong, and Pinglu, which were no less powerful than Wang Zhongsi's back then, into the hands of Anlushan? He didn't even look at who he was, risking being scolded by the government and the opposition.
Danger, the blank confession of more than two hundred fourth-grade generals was wholesaled to An Lushan at once, allowing him to promote a lot of personal cronies? Let’s not take a closer look. Just last year, An Lushan was deceived and put under house arrest in Chang’an.
However, who was not allowed to kill him and even named him Minister Zuopushe as a sign of comfort?
You, the Li family, take An as your treasure, what's the use of worrying about me, Yang?! In the past two years, he has been reminded more than 20 times, but he is considered to be narrow-minded and jealous of talents. He, An Lushan, can't even read Chinese characters.
Even if a humble warrior who knew a few people quickly rose through the ranks, became a hussar general, and was granted the title of Founding Duke, that would be the end of the road. It was impossible for him to get involved in the three provinces. How could he be jealous of him when he was the prime minister of the dynasty?
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated Yang Guozhong felt. Frankly speaking, he used a lot of shameful means in the process of climbing up. However, after becoming the prime minister, he was worthy of this salary. It turned out that when Li Linfu was in power
, the national treasury was empty, and the imperial court was starved of food every year. Within two years after he took office, the internal and external treasury was replenished, and gold, silver, jade and silk were piled up like mountains. It turns out that when Li Linfu was in power, the literati who were Jinshi and were waiting for five days in the capital.
, six or even ten years may not be able to fill a real vacancy. After he took office, it only took him just half a year to find or open up special positions for them in the local area. It turned out that when Li Linfu was in power,
Anyone who dares to question his decrees will be destroyed. But after he took office, he opened his mouth and was always polite to stupid people who argued with him in front of the emperor!
Yes, Mr. Yang was born in a humble background and had read few books. But Mr. Yang was attentive to his work and treated people generously. Why didn’t these guys have the guts to scold Li Linfu, but they bit back at Mr. Yang who was kind to them? Why couldn’t these guys see it?
Come on, in the past few years since Mr. Yang took office, he has not wiped the butt of the previous prime minister all the time and repaired the holes?! Even the reduction of military power in the feudal towns was to solve the hidden dangers left by his predecessor. It was not at all for personal reasons.
Grudges? If you turn a blind eye to An Lushan's behavior, Yang can be bold and accept his benefits. The "filial piety" from Fan Yang every year will definitely make Yang's fingers cramp! At worst, when he rebels,
Mr. Yang is no longer the prime minister and has gone back to Sichuan to become a rich man. Why did Mr. Yang come to this, why did he come here?!
Sad, angry, aggrieved, and lonely, for a while, Yang Guozhong fell into negative emotions and couldn't extricate himself. He didn't even hear the advice of his close friend Yu Wende.
"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, actually, from my younger brother's side..." Yuwende couldn't get a response from Yang Guozhong for a long time, thinking that the other party was thinking about his strategy, so he cautiously added an explanation.
"Your brother!" Yang Guozhong finally heard half of the sentence, and immediately vented all his anger on Yu Wende's head, pulled the other man's collar, and cursed: "How long has it been, you can't forget it yet.
Asking for benefits on behalf of your brother? If An Lushan really invades Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty will be completely destroyed. Even if you ask for the title of champion general for your brother now, it will be nothing but an empty joy. Before it is delivered
If we go to the Western Regions, the day lilies will be cold already!"
Yu Wende had no chance to explain and was scolded like crazy. Finally, he waited until Yang Guozhong was tired of scolding him before he murmured, "Prime Minister, Prime Minister..."
"Get out, I don't want to see you trash today anymore!" Yang Guozhong left Yu Wende behind and shouted loudly.
Yu Wende's body was so strong that he was pushed hard by Yang Guozhong and immediately fell to the ground. "Prime Minister, my subordinates are all thinking about you..." Unable to bear this grievance, he burst into tears.
Snot and tears smeared all over his face.
"I'll treat you like a bastard!" Yang Guozhong became more and more irritable. He didn't care about his own image. He rushed forward and kicked Yu Wende in the chest with his foot. "What's the name? I'm not dead yet. Get out of here, if you don't do it anymore."
Don’t blame me for not remembering our old love!”
After a few kicks, Zheng Ang, Zhang Jian and others hugged his waist. Blood was already coming from the corners of Yu Wende's mouth, and he was lying on the ground groaning. Seeing this, the people in Zhongshushe felt very unbearable. They walked up.
He stepped forward and while helping Yu Wende up, he whispered: "My lord, why are you doing this? Although the plan proposed by Minister Yu Wen just now is a bit crude, if you think about it carefully, it may not be without merit."
Yang Guozhong couldn't listen at all. He raised his eyes and aimed his vent at Song Yu, "Is it just to promote his younger brother? By the way, there is also your younger brother Song Wu. They have just made great achievements. They should be promoted to officials.
.After all, whether you want to be a third-grade champion general or a Pegasus governor, I will ask for the title from Your Majesty on their behalf tomorrow!"
Although Song Yu often sang peace with Yang Guozhong in the court, his status was far above other Yang officials, and he was not usually afraid of Yang Guozhong's power. He smiled and asked patiently: "I'm afraid you didn't hear Yuwen Shilang just now."
What are you talking about? He is not asking for any reward for his younger brother. He is suggesting that you transfer people back from the Western Regions to strengthen the defense force of the capital!"
"Transfer people from the Western Regions?" Yang Guozhong was stunned, with a hint of apology on his face. He knew that he had really wronged Yu Wende this time, but he refused to apologize in person. He shook his head and sneered: "Isn't it still nonsense?
?Your two younger brothers, and that Wang Xun, are indeed brave and good at fighting. But Dawan is thousands of miles away from Chang'an. By the time they come back to escort them, Chang'an City will have been attacked countless times!"
"That's not true, not necessarily!" Yu Wende stood up with Song Yu's support and retorted angrily.
"You..." Seeing that Yu Wende, who was usually extremely coward, actually dared to contradict him, Yang Guozhong instinctively wanted to scold him. When he saw the blood stains on the corner of the other person's mouth, he felt weak in his heart. "You guy, you can't even speak.
Tell me more clearly. I've been so anxious lately that I can't even hear what you said clearly. Come on, please go to the Tai Hospital and ask a doctor to come over!"
The second half of the sentence was already directed at the door. The guard on duty responded loudly, but Yu Wende waved his hand with a wry smile, "No, no need, spread it, spread it, it will not have a good impact on the adults. I will find it myself later."
I'm just a doctor, just take a look at it privately. It's no big deal!"
The more he paid attention to the overall situation, the more regretful Yang Guozhong felt. He first ordered someone to call back the guard who had gone to invite the doctor, and then personally helped Yu Wende up and comforted him softly: "Is everything really okay? In fact, at this point, Yang
You already have enough debt to worry about? Why care about what others say?"
"The more things are like this, you must not let the outside see that everything is in chaos. Otherwise, we will have no good results!" Yu Wende is usually cowardly, but at the critical moment, he really has some superhuman insights. He smiled and whispered advice.
, "Yu Wende's wealth and honor are all rewarded by the adults, so he doesn't care to share some of the worries for the adults. But the adults must calm down and keep their expressions straight even if they are in chaos!"
"Yes, yes! I listen to you. Sit down and talk!" Yang Guozhong became more and more moved. He supported Yu Wende and forced him to his seat.
Yu Wende did not dare to sit down, and struggled to stand up to avoid him. Yang Guozhong pinned him down with one hand, and waved the other hand to everyone, "Everyone, sit down and talk. Yang just lost his temper. Don't take it to heart."
.In this current situation, we must work together to stabilize the overall situation first, and then consider other things in the long term!"
"First of all, we have to make a fuss about the affairs of the Western Regions!" Yuwende struggled for a few times and could only do half of his buttocks. "Now people outside say that you have made no achievements since you became prime minister. Brother Shi and others are in the Western Regions
If you show off your power, you can slap them in the face!"
"Contribution to the Western Regions?" Yang Guozhong began to feel dizzy again. Ever since he heard about An Lushan's rebellion, he had not paid attention to other things. He had long forgotten all about the good news coming from the northwest.
"What Minister Yuwen is talking about is that more than two months ago, the Dawan Governor's Palace and the Dashi Eastern Expeditionary Army fought fiercely at Iron Gate Pass, killing tens of thousands of enemies, and once again regained the two states of Luona and Gumo!" Yu Wen received.
Inspired by virtue, Song Yu's thoughts became active. He walked up to Yang Guozhong and reminded him with a smile.
Luona and Gumo were the names given to the two cities of Hulun and Damei by the Tang Dynasty during the Gaozong era. The Tianma Governor's Mansion that Yang Guozhong mentioned earlier also had jurisdiction over this line. At this moment, Song Wu reminded him that he finally wanted to
He stood up, frowned, and asked in a low voice, "Are you asking Yang to talk about the achievements of the Dayuan Governor's Mansion? At this time, how can the imperial court bother to reward them based on their merits?"
"The more this time is, the more we need to publicize this victory with great fanfare. After all, in the past two years, whether it is the achievements of the Anxi Army or the achievements of the Dawan Governor's Palace, they are all inseparable from your support."
After all, he is a scholar, but Song Yu can speak. In just a few words, all the achievements of Wang Xun and others' bloody battles were handed over to Yang Guozhong. Yang Guozhong, however, was somewhat self-aware, smiled coquettishly, and said in a low voice, "A certain person."
The family has never had any merit. In order to fill the hole in the national treasury in the past two years, not a penny has been allocated to the Anxi Army. Even the military resources for the westward march were raised by Feng Changqing from the local government."
"But my lord, you have given Feng Changqing the power to raise his own military resources. You have also defied the opinions of others and hired young talents such as Wang Mingyun and Brother She!" Song Yu smiled and continued. "This is nothing but credit.
?Since Empress Wu came to power, which prime minister has been able to plant the flag of the Tang Dynasty so far away again?!"
