Zhong Lianghuai's aura of preferring the jade to pieces rather than the whole thing really infected many people present.
Everyone at the scene was pointing and pointing. In this situation, Yang Hu knew that he could not disobey him, so he could only obey and said:
"It was the tiger who said something carelessly! Brother Zhong, please put the things down, don't be so excited!"
Zhong Lianghuai stared at Yang Hu fiercely and shook his head:
"I must immediately agree to change my steps and change my jade in public, otherwise I, Zhongliang Huai, will definitely be determined to be under this jade today!"
Seeing this situation, Yang Hu had no choice but to tactfully say:
"In that case, let's change it to three steps, remove the 癙砠 as well, and return it to the official office! What do you think?"
After hearing this, Zhong Lianghuai breathed a sigh of relief and put down his hands:
"Hmph! If I had known this, why bother!"
Yang Hu was angry, but he didn't show it.
However, this matter also reminded him. Obviously, apart from Zhong Lianghuai, there are still many people who are loyal to the Ji family. And what he is doing now is to secretly record all of them.
As for Zhong Liang Huai, there is no doubt that he is a thorn in the side that must be dealt with. Otherwise, Yang Hu cannot even fully control the Ji family, so how can he support the establishment of a public office?
Gongshan Buxuan also came to Qufu to express his condolences. That night, Yang Hu invited Gongshan Buxuan into his house.
The two exchanged polite greetings at first. After all, they had been friends for more than ten years. Especially since the Nankuai rebellion, Gongshan Buxuan had firmly assumed the position of Fei Yi's governor. The two of them, one
The one who governs the inside and the other who governs the outside can be said to be the two pillars of the Ji family.
What's more, they had attacked Yunyi together some time ago.
Therefore, the two of them talked happily, but then Yang Hu changed the subject and couldn't help but hint to him:
"Xiandi Gongshan, the late master will be buried soon, and the young master will succeed to the throne soon. However... Yang needs to do one thing during this period, and I hope to get the support of Xiandi Gongshan.
ah!"
Gongshan Buxuan couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and asked:
"Oh? I don't know why?"
"Hey...actually, there is no such thing. It's just that Zhong Liang Huai has always been at odds with Yang. He wants to drive him out of the Lu country. I hope that the wise brother Gongshan can help him.
"At the condolence meeting, I also asked the wise brother Gongshan to join me in condemning Zhongliang Huai!"
Gongshan Buxiu frowned, but immediately sneered:
"Haha, Brother Yang, I'm afraid you said something angry today, right? Are you venting your anger for what happened today?"
Yang Hu said calmly:
"Well, but this is just one of them."
Gongshan Buxi couldn't help but sigh:
"He is the king, so why should you blame him?"
Obviously, Gongshan Buxuan did not approve of Yang Hu's move.
What he meant was that what Zhong Liang Huai did was also the behavior of a gentleman. Since you Yang Hu also claim to be a gentleman, why should you blame him?
"What's more, it may not be easy to expel Zhong Lianghuai. He has won the trust of the young master now. If Brother Yang goes too far, I'm afraid it won't be certain who will expel whom in the future!"
"Brother's words today will be treated as if they didn't happen, and I won't share any of them with anyone else. But I hope that brother can handle himself well!"
"Actually, to this day, Bu Xuan still has some doubts in his heart about some things. But Bu Xuan is not a noisy person, and he doesn't want to find out clearly. Brother Yang, the matter has come to this, and Bu Xuan's words can only be said.
Here it is!”
In fact, when Yang Hu was suspected by Ji Sun Yiru, he forged a letter from Gongshan Buxuan. Obviously, Gongshan Buxuan had some rumors about this matter.
Therefore, it is impossible to say that there is no problem with Gongshan not being fierce.
In addition, Yang Hu also transferred ice cubes from Feiyi in advance, which naturally could not be hidden from Gongshan Buxi.
Therefore, even if Gongshan doesn't talk about some things, it doesn't mean that he can't guess them.
The reason why he didn't reveal the matter was because he had already seen Yang Hu's ambition, and coincidentally, he also had some ideas.
Therefore, although Gongshan Buxuan knew Yang Hu's thoughts, he did not want to choose sides.
After all, it is still unclear who will win in this duel between the Ji family and the forces behind them and Yang Hu.
Of course, Yang Hu is also a smart man. Of course he understands what Gongshan Buxi means. Although he is a little angry in his heart, there is nothing he can do about it.
…
Ji Sun Yiru was buried here, and his son Ji Sunsi succeeded as the head of the Ji family. Yang Hu, as the head of the family, continued to control the Ji family.
When Ji Sunsi came to the throne as a young man, he was also very afraid of Yang Hu, and at the same time relied more on Zhong Liang Huai.
And Yang Hu could not find an excuse to drive Zhong Lianghuai away. He was extremely dissatisfied with this.
Just when Yang Hu was at his wits end, Guan Cong came to see him again. As soon as the two met, Guan Cong greeted him with a smile:
"Brother Yang, how are you today? Why are you looking so gloomy? I wonder what's bothering you?"
He truly deserves to be called Kan Cong. His ability to observe words and emotions is simply unmatched by anyone.
And Yang Hu now trusts Guan Cong so much that he doesn’t hide anything from him:
"I...will prepare to kill Zhong Lianghuai in the near future!"
Guan Cong was shocked when he heard this:
"Oh? Brother Yang, this is a dangerous move! After Ji Sun Yiru's death, many people are still doubting Brother Yang. If he rashly attacks Zhongliang Huai at this moment, it may be detrimental to Brother Yang. The situation is unstable now, so if you act
You still have to be careful!”
When Yang Hu heard that it was true, he bowed deeply towards Guan Cong.
"In that case, please teach me, sir!"
Guan Cong smiled slightly again and said quite confidently:
"Haha, Brother Yang needs to do two things now. One is to invite my young master back to Qufu. He is in the dark and Zhongni is in the light. The two of them can help Brother Yang in the future! Secondly, it can
Take advantage of Gongshan’s lack of fervor to drive away Zhongliang Huai!”
After Yang Hu heard this, he just wanted to see what good strategy he had. After hearing this, he couldn't help but look embarrassed, and he slowly sat down and said:
"The first thing is not difficult...it's just the second thing...To be honest, Hu has actually discussed this matter with Gongshan Buxuan before, but he seems unwilling to help me make it happen.
The intention is obviously to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, I'm afraid...it won't be easy!"
When Guan Cong heard this, he sneered again and continued:
"Haha, why is this so difficult? Gongshan is not ferocious, and he has been disobedient for a long time. He is sitting in Feiyi, so how can he let go easily? And now that the new master has ascended the throne, Zhongliang Huai is extremely loyal to the Ji family!
Why doesn't Brother Yang use a little trick to make him want to chase Gongshan Buxi? Brother Yang can reap the benefits when the time comes and let Gongshan Buxi know the news. In this way, he can bribe Gongshan Buxi.
It can also make the two of them resent each other, which is a plan to 'drove the tiger and swallow the wolf'!"
When Yang Hu heard this plan, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and couldn't help but clap his hands and get up:
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Hahaha, this is a great plan!"
Guan Cong was overjoyed when he saw Yang Hu, and he lost no time in speaking:
"This is just a trivial plan, so why bother? If my young master were here, I'm afraid he could come up with a better plan than this one!"
"It's just that... my young master... seems to be retiring now. If Brother Yang wants to invite my young master, he may need some sincerity."
When Yang Hu heard this, he slowly started doing it again and asked:
"Oh? But you don't know what to do?"
Guan Congjin said:
"In the name of the Marquis of Lu, we can allow the sons of the two former monarchs who are far away in Yunyi to return home first and make them officials of the Qing clan. In this case, our young master will have to come to Qufu because of his kindness.
Got it!"
"and……"
Yang Hu heard that he was hesitant to speak, and couldn't help but ask:
"how?"
"Haha, and if Brother Yang tries his best to promote this matter, on the one hand, it can show Brother Yang's intention to support the government, and on the other hand, it can also represent the reconciliation between the Ji family and the government. This move can also be said to be a blessing for Brother Yang.
It’s beneficial!”
Guan Cong knew that Li Ran was currently focused on his wife, so he was not necessarily willing to come to Qufu. Therefore, he decided to use Gong Yan and Gong Wei, the two young masters, to revive Li Ran.
.
After Yang Hu heard this, he thought about it for a while, then while stroking his beard, he nodded heavily to show his agreement.
…
The next day, Yang Hu, acting as the family minister, took Ji Sunsi to the court meeting, interceded for the two sons of Lu Zhaogong in public, and invited them to return to the country.
Yang Hu's move obviously gained unanimous favor from everyone.
After all, in this court, it was you, the Ji family, who did not deal with Lu Zhaogong in the first place. It would be great if you, the Ji family, can "reform" and take the initiative to reconcile with the past.
Yang Hu's move actually earned him enough fame.
Even though he is just the head of the Ji family.
…
Yang Hu's letter and Lu Hou Song's edict arrived in Yunyi almost at the same time.
When Li Ran saw this edict, he couldn't make a decision for a while, so he handed it all to Sun Wu and asked him to think about what to do.
Li Ran himself continued to accompany Ji Le.
However, after Ji Le drank the medicine, he vomited it out again.
Li Ran wiped the dirt silently and actually smiled:
"Madam, what she vomited this time was less than what she drank, which means that some of the medicine got into her mouth!"
Li Ran's words were undoubtedly forced comfort, how could he not know the joy of sacrifice?
