Chapter 346: A few paragraphs of the west wind rely on each other and hate each other
The morning stars are few and far between, and the east is white. The wealthy pavilions are bathed in the morning light, and the birds are chirping and circling.
In Zhaodefang, in the school grounds of the outer college, Yang Lin brought several disciples to practice boxing. Only Yao Pingyi did not arrive. Behind them were hundreds of little Taoist boys, each of whose moves were very decent, even more standard than Yang Lin's.
These little Taoist boys adopted by Yanqing Temple have been meditating and practicing Qigong with Yang Lin since they were very young. They really started practicing from childhood.
Now Yao Pingzhong no longer returns to Yao Mansion, but lives with his senior brothers in the outer courtyard of Zhaodefang.
Every morning, when Yang Lin goes to boxing, these disciples often follow him. Yao Pingzhong has nothing to do, so he joins in with great interest, which can be regarded as a relief from the turbid anger in his chest.
This time, the scandal within the Western Army really disgusted him, especially the tragic death of his second brother, which made him not go back to Yao Mansion.
He was about to return to the northwest to take charge of the army, and Yao Pingzhong didn't feel much excitement in his heart. He was depressed all day long. Instead of going back to take charge of the army, it would be better to hide in the outer courtyard of his mentor and be quiet and comfortable.
This outer courtyard is really a mixed bag, full of talents, and there are all kinds of weirdos. Yao Pingzhong likes this feeling very much, and makes some novel discoveries every day.
After daily morning exercises, Yang Lin called several disciples, sat under the tree and said: "Xi Yan is going back to Yan'an soon. Before leaving, I would like to warn you a few words. The situation in the northwest is complicated, and various forces are intertwined. You must
All you have to do is fulfill your duty as a general.
As for other things, it is not your responsibility, so don't interfere. Your Majesty will do it for you as a teacher and for the princes in the court. One day, when you reach the position of being a teacher, it will not be too late to consider other things.
"
Yao Pingzhong knew that he was talking about the game between the forces of North Korea and China on the Western Army. To put it more deeply, it was the dispute between Liang and Yang over the invasion of Liao.
Yao Pingzhong did not have that thought involved. He clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, my teacher. I know that generals put military orders first. If the imperial court orders us to go into battle, we will use all our abilities to serve the country."
"
Yang Lin smiled and said secretly that this student is pretty good and has some understanding.
With Yao Pingzhong inside and Han Shizhong and Song Jiang outside, no one can even think of taking the Western Army away from them. And then transferring the aging old man to the capital for retirement is actually a kind of protection for him.
Otherwise, Zhongshidao will sooner or later die in the hands of the juniors he single-handedly promoted.
These people are so noisy that it is already difficult to control Zhongshi Dao. This time Zhongshizhong makes his own decisions, so he can only sigh at home. In fact, let the old Zhong worry less and live a few more years, and there will be a real fight in the future.
, he is still very useful.
How many civil and military officials in the Song Dynasty were capable of fighting? Even Tong Guan, who was half-assed, probably couldn't find many. Gong Gong, a high-ranking official, full of poems and books, claimed to be romantic, and usually slept with a prostitute.
Everyone in Zuile is very capable, and when it comes to the battlefield, they are all fucking useless snacks. The Song Dynasty has been raising scholars for a hundred years, and they have raised a group of living dads through pampering.
Yang Lin could protect the Western Army from Liang Shicheng, but Liang Shicheng could not stop Yang Lin from reorganizing the Western Army.
Because the stability of the northwest was brought about by Yang Lin, and Huizong Zhao Ji knew this better than anyone else.
When the news of the defeat came that day, Zhao Ji could not forget the scene when Yang Lin faced the saint alone and took all the blame for the crime. Zhao Ji knew an honest minister in a rough place, and a powerful grass in a strong wind. What is an unparalleled scholar in the country, in Zhao Ji's opinion
, His Highness Jin knelt down to plead guilty, and Yang Lin, who was going to be sent as an envoy to the Khitan to save people from danger, was the unparalleled scholar of the Song Dynasty.
In addition, the Western Army itself had many problems. If it were revealed to Zhao Ji, the emperor would not be able to let them continue.
While Yang Lin and Yao Pingzhong were discussing in detail the stubborn diseases in the Northwest Army, Li Yunniang came in with a group of people, pushing several large pots.
The little Taoist boys cheered and lined up obediently to wait for food. Yang Lin reached out and called Yun Niang over and said with a smile: "We are going to jump in line, go and bring a portion for each of us."
Yun Niang responded with a smile, and instead of trying to fight with the Taoist boys, she ordered a maid to go to the kitchen, and soon came over with a lunch box.
It was placed on a small stone table under the tree, and the master and apprentice gathered together to drink porridge. Yun Niang alone served Yang Lin a stack of side dishes and stood aside to serve him.
Wu Min said with envy: "Xi Yan, as a favorite general of the official family, you have a bright future when you return to the northwest this time."
Yao Pingzhong curled his lips and said, "I still want to be like you and learn something from my mentor. That place in the northwest is nowhere near as good as Bianliang."
Cai Sui joked: "Wu Yuanzhong, when Zichong and Shutong went to Khitan, you sighed in envy for a long time. Are you in such a hurry to leave in front of your mentor? Be careful that your mentor will report to His Majesty and send you to Tubo to educate the Tibetan people.
.”
Everyone laughed together. Yang Lin saw that the students had become familiar with each other, and Cai Jing was making jokes this season. He felt very comfortable and said with a smile: "When the next spring comes, you will all become officials in the court.
How to arrange the time depends on your abilities. It is always good to learn more."
When Cai Sui talked about Yu Wenxuzhong and Ma Kuilai, Yang Lin also aroused his thoughts and sighed: "Over the Khitan side, Shutong and Zichong are very prosperous. They are already helping the Liao leader train troops. They just
However, the Khitans are plagued by numerous illnesses, and even having a powerful army of soldiers and horses will not help."
At this time, Yang San came wandering over, crossed his hands and said: "Da Lang, we have a guest, he says he is Mrs. Yao Mansion."
Yao Pingzhong's expression tightened and he said, "They are probably here to find me."
Yang Lin stood up, twisted his waist and stretched his arms, and said, "I'll go take a look."
In the flower hall, Zheng Yunyao is chatting with Mrs. Yao. It can be seen that she is not very interested in chatting. She has no makeup on her cheeks. She has a natural hibiscus look and her eyebrows are not open. Her eyelashes are moist and moist, and there seems to be some eyelids.
Some are slightly red and swollen.
She was also wearing a plain-colored skirt, with a Hualing jade ribbon tying her head, which was a little messy, and a bundle of blue silk hanging down from the left side of her face.
After Yang Lin came in, Mrs. Yao quickly stood up and asked: "Young Master Yang, can the banquet be at your residence?"
"Here, Xi Yan is my disciple. He lives in the master's home. Madam, there is no need to worry about her."
Mrs. Yao belongs to the Zhe family, but she still doesn't know that the murderer is her nephew. She only knows that Yao Pingzhong doesn't go home every day, and Yao Pingyi doesn't leave his room every day. The house is full of gloom and gloom.
Mrs. Yao wiped her tears and cried: "Xi Yan and his second brother have a deep love for each other. Please give me some comfort and enlightenment from the young master. I am a useless woman. What happened to the family is all thanks to the young master."
