Wang Can said: "I am required to stay in Zitong County for a period of time."
Yang Dali said: "No need!"
Wang Can said: "You really don't need it?"
After Yang Dali heard this, he fell silent. After a short pause, he said: "Two days, it will take two days for the official to set things right. Within two days, the official will correct the chaos and handle everything properly. Two days later, the country will
Then the division can set off and leave Zitong County."
Wang Can said: "I will give you two days."
For Wang Can, one day more and one day less actually didn't make much difference, so he made a quick decision.
"Thank you, Imperial Master!"
Yang Dali respectfully thanked Wang Can.
For Yang Dali, this is his opportunity, it can also be said to be his chance. If Wang Can is not here, even if Yang Dali comes from a wealthy family, the family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and he is from a noble family, but for the official situation in Zitong County
Generally speaking, without external force to break through, Yang Dali could only remain in this situation, always being the boss and unable to be promoted.
After all, he is a carrot and a trap, especially since he does not collude with Mo Youqi and others.
They will even be ostracized.
Even if you won't be reprimanded, you won't be promoted.
This is such a situation.
However, everything changed with the arrival of Wang Can. Wang Can killed Mo Youqi with thunderous force, dismissed the other county magistrates, county lieutenants and other officials, and promoted him to serve as the governor of Zitong County.
County magistrate.
This is his chance.
Yang Dali sent Wang Can to live in the backyard of the county government office. He immediately arranged all the people mentioned earlier, let everyone perform their duties, and began to deal with the backlog of government affairs.
While everyone was dealing with the backlog of government affairs, Yang Dali himself went straight back to the Yang family.
Yang Dali's father's name is Yang Lie.
Now, he is nearly sixty years old, with gray hair and wearing a black robe. He is very thin, but he is very energetic.
When Yang Lie saw Yang Dali coming back, he was a little surprised and said, "Dali, why are you back?"
Yang Dali said: "Reporting to my father, the reason why my son came back is to ask my father for help."
Yang Lie said: "Why, what difficulties did you encounter?"
Yang Dali shook his head and replied: "Reporting to my father, my son did not encounter any difficulties. On the contrary, my son encountered a great opportunity today. Wang Can, the national preceptor, entered our Zitong County from Brazil County. After an open and covert visit,
The crimes of Mo Youqi and others were discovered, and Mo Youqi happened to be the accomplice, suppressing the people unscrupulously."
"The Imperial Master was furious and killed Mo Youqi directly."
"Except for this, the rest of the people who belonged to Mo Youqi's line were all dismissed from their official positions and had to pay atonement money. Not only that, because his son had not collaborated with them, he was promoted by the Imperial Master to serve as the county magistrate of Zitong County.
make."
"Now, my son will take charge of Zitong County."
Yang Dali said sternly: "My son now wants to control the power, and more importantly, the people's hearts and minds. Therefore, I implore my father to mobilize the power of the family to publicize Mo Youqi's crimes, and then publish all the crimes of the county magistrate, county captain and others."
, explaining the fact that they were all dismissed. This is what the son wants his father to help."
Yang Lie said: "This is not a problem."
After a pause, Yang Lie stroked his beard under his chin and said in a deep voice: "Dali, you just said that although Mo Youqi is dead, the county captain, county magistrate and others have been dismissed from their official positions and have to pay a ransom.
.However, they have the final say on when to pay the atonement money. What’s more, if they unite, they can fight back against you even if they have never been officials. Have you ever considered this matter?"
Yang Dali said: "Father, don't worry, my son has already considered this. Now, my son has sent someone to urge him. Today, we have to collect all the ransom money. In addition, all the private soldiers of these big families have also
To be dismissed."
Yang Lie said: "You are so domineering, what if they directly resist?"
Yang Lie agreed with Yang Dali's approach.
However, safety must be ensured.
This is the premise.
If this cannot be guaranteed, Yang Lie does not want Yang Dali to take action. He can change his domineering and direct approach to gradually weakening the major families bit by bit, and eventually destroying all the family forces.
Yang Dali suddenly laughed and said seriously: "Dad, you are overly worried. In fact, from today to tomorrow, the Imperial Guard will stay in Zitong County. As long as the Imperial Guard is in Zitong County, no matter what force it is,
Don’t dare to act rashly.”
Yang Lie frowned and said: "My son, even if the Imperial Master is powerful, the Imperial Master Wang Can is still alone. You have to know that once these big families in Zitong County unite, if they mobilize their power, they will directly
If we take action, then even the Imperial Guard may not be able to stop such a force. Therefore, the Imperial Guard sitting here for two days will not actually be of much help."
Yang Dali shook his head and chuckled, saying: "Father is too worried."
Yang Lie said: "Dali, if you blindly believe in the Imperial Master, you may be in danger in the end. Especially now that you have become the county magistrate, your family is tied to you. Even the family may be
affected."
Yang Dali said: "Father, do you know some rumors about the Imperial Master?"
"Know!"
Yang Lie nodded, stroking the beard under his chin, and said calmly: "According to rumors, Wang Can, the Imperial Preceptor, has the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the earth. He can even fly through the sky and move mountains and reclaim seas. That's all.
It’s a piece of cake.”
Yang Dali had a bright smile on his face and said sternly: "Father, my son doesn't know whether it is true or not about the ability of the Imperial Master to move wind and rain, move mountains and reclaim seas. After all, he has never witnessed it with his own eyes and has never seen it. However, my son has seen it.
The National Preceptor took action. When he was in the county government, the National Preceptor opposed Mo Youqi's trial and denied Mo Youqi at that time."
"Facing the Imperial Guard, Mo Youqi directly ordered the capture of the Imperial Guard."
"According to the reaction of the situation at that time, the several government officials who besieged the Imperial Guard did not approach the Imperial Guard at all. They only saw the Imperial Guard turning into a shadow. These government officials all fell to the ground, without any strength at all."
Yang Dali said in a deep voice: "It can be seen that the strength of the Imperial Preceptor is not comparable to that of ordinary people. With the Imperial Preceptor here, even if people from these major families want to cause chaos, it is impossible. This
We will win this battle! Our Yang family will also become the largest family in Zitong County because of this. Father, this is an opportunity!"
Yang Lie stared at Yang Dali with scrutiny in his eyes.
After a while, Yang Lie nodded and said: "Now that my son has made a decision, all my father can do is support you. Now, in addition to spreading the news about Mo Youqi and others, what else do you need to do for him?
The Father helps.”
"no need."
Yang Dali shook his head.
There was a determined look in his eyes.
Because Wang Can is in charge, everything is no problem. As long as his father helps and as long as the news spreads throughout Zitong County, then he can use the news to establish his position.
Yang Lie stroked the beard under his chin and said in a deep voice: "You don't need father's help, but there is one thing that father thinks you need to do immediately."
Yang Dali said: "Father, please make it clear!"
Yang Lie said: "Although the Imperial Preceptor has only belittled the previous officials and has not dealt with them. However, these people have an extremely bad reputation throughout Zitong County. Only by truly dealing with them can you be considered a foothold. Otherwise,
In the eyes of the people, your handling of things like this is tantamount to collaborating with them, it is tantamount to scratching the surface, and it will have no impact."
Yang Dali said: "What does father mean?"
A cold light flashed across Yang Lie's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Immediately take over the entire Zitong County army, and then mobilize the troops to take down the major families directly."
"ah!"
Yang Dali said: "Father, these people all have private soldiers. Once we take action against them, their private soldiers will definitely attack immediately. How will the situation be suppressed then?"
Yang Lie's cloudy eyes flashed with a cold and stern look, and he said: "Can the private soldiers of the major families compare to the officers and soldiers of Zitong County? What's more, now the major families have lost their strength and their strength has weakened.
.”
"If you take the officers and soldiers there, it will not be difficult to win. Especially, have you forgotten our family general Yang Yuanqing? He is a real tiger general. If you take Yang Yuanqing with you to defeat the people of the major families, that is
It's as easy as flipping a finger."
"If you want to complete your victory in one battle and truly become the magistrate of Zitong County, you must do this."
"Especially if the Imperial Master is here, he will support you after seeing your decisiveness in killing."
Yang Lie's face showed a smile like an old fox, and he said solemnly: "In this way, you are the real county magistrate, and you can truly gain the trust of the people. My son, this is your opportunity. Do it boldly, don't
I have some scruples.”
"hiss!"
After Yang Dali heard what his old father said, he had a look of shock on his face.
I didn't expect that my old father would be so strong.
Yang Lie chuckled and said: "My son, when my father was in Zitong County, he was also a troublemaker. If not, do you think my Yang family can become a big family in Zitong County and survive? Especially these years.
, you are not willing to join in with them, without the deterrence of your father, you would have been captured long ago."
Yang Dali took a deep breath and said, "My father is wise, and my son understands."
Yang Lie said: "Now that the opportunity has come, don't have any scruples, don't hesitate at all, do it boldly, go for it. Those in power hate incompetent people, as long as you have the ability, then everything is not a problem.
.As long as you have the ability, can make political achievements, and can stabilize the situation, you don't have to worry about it."
For an old fox like Yang Lie, he has seen too many big storms. For him, this little thing is an opportunity, a chance to climb up.
