Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Peak Turns Back and the Road Turns

After Yang Guozhong entered Xingqing Palace, he dismounted and walked, and immediately a small yellow gate rushed up.

"Is the saint in a good mood today?"

"Back to Xianggong's words, just now Lubu Feijie came, the saint Longyan Dayue!" Xiao Huangmen's face was full of smiles, his eyes were full of excitement, and his luck was good today, he fed Yang Xianggong a reassuring pill, and it was not in vain to stand in the wind and snow for a day.

With Xiao Huangmen's reminder, Yang Guozhong had confidence in his heart, and his slightly frowning brows gradually relaxed. If the situation continues to deteriorate, the Son of Heaven will have to reuse and rely on the only veteran in the court, that is, the newly canonized Shangshu Zuo servant Shoot Brother Shuhan. And the old thief Geshuhan has always had a lot of trouble with him, and he has accumulated it over the years, and it has even reached the point of either death or life.

At the beginning of spring, Ge Shuhan suddenly suffered a stroke on the way back to Beijing, and after waking up, half of his body was paralyzed, like a wasted person. After Yang Guozhong heard the news, he really breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. After the old thief Geshu fell ill, he had one less competitor at home and abroad, and then An Lushan was left, as long as he got rid of this person, he could dominate the dynasty like Li Linfu back then.

Thinking about it, it is also a wish, An Lushan's miscellaneous beard actually rebelled a month ago, Yang Guozhong was happy when he learned about this, and since then the threats around him have gone, and in his eyes An Lushan seems to be a dead man.

However, Yang Guozhong never expected that An Lushan's miscellaneous Hu'er would conquer the eastern capital Luoyang in the rest of the month, and even Feng Changqing's famous generals who had great military exploits and might destroy the country in the Western Regions were defeated again and again.

In an instant, the situation in the world seemed to be getting worse day by day, and as the head of the prime minister, he couldn't come up with half an idea. The Son of Heaven convened important ministers several times, but none of the prime ministers could come up with practical countermeasures. This is really a strange thing since the Tang Dynasty, you must know that the Tang Dynasty since the Gaozu Taizong descended, the important ministers have always been out of the general, into the phase, how many times have there been a list of prime ministers like hot pot ants?

Of course, a large part of this factor is in Yang Guozhong, if Yang Guozhong wants to dominate the dynasty like Li Linfu, other prime minister candidates must not be strong. Therefore, Wei Jiansu, who has been cautious all his life, can enter his sight and become the prime minister.

Yang Guozhong could already read his dissatisfaction from the eyes of the Son of Heaven, although the imperial concubine was in Zhenglong, and his position in the heart of the Son of Heaven was not easily shaken, but this was a bad sign after all, and everything was developing in a bad direction. In the face of this situation, Yang Guozhong is indeed more than enough but not enough, when Li Linfu was still in power, he concurrently served as the envoy of Jiannan Province, and was forced by Li Linfu to go to the Southern Shao State, and almost died in Jiannan.

In the battle of the Southern Shao State, the Tang army failed to bargain, and in the final analysis, the main general was incompetent and exhausted the three armies. Yang Guozhong finally had self-knowledge, and once pretended to test the attitude of the Son of Heaven, expressing his willingness to lead the army to eliminate the rebel Hu.

Li Longji, the Son of Heaven, only shook his head at that time and asked him to go home and sit in peace. Later, Gao Xianzhi's troops in Shaanzhou were hesitant, but a county lieutenant suddenly appeared in Xin'an, and more than 10,000 people were beheaded with a small unitary army, which made Long Yan happy. Then, the Son of Heaven sent out several edicts in a row, and handled military and political affairs with all his might, which made Yang Guozhong feel very cold, and if he didn't hear about military affairs, what was the use of the prime minister?

What made Yang Guozhong feel even more like pins and needles was that the Son of Heaven even moved out of the old thief Geshu who was sick and died at home, not only letting him become the prime minister, but also intentionally making him command the world's soldiers and horses. This deeply stimulated Yang Guozhong, and the sense of crisis followed. You must know that Ge Shuhan is not Wei Jiansu's kind of good person who only knows how to nod and don't know how to shake his head, this person is the prime minister, if he is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, can he still have Yang Guozhong's good fruit to eat?

Therefore, after hearing "Lubu Feijie" come out of Xiao Huangmen's mouth, Yang Guozhong was inexplicably happy, the good news that can make the Son of Heaven Long Yan Dayue will never be a small victory, if it is a big battle that determines success or failure, then the possibility of Ge Shuhan commanding the world's soldiers and horses will be greatly reduced?

After entering the Qinzheng Building, as always, Wei Jiansu had already arrived before Yang Guozhong, and was sitting on the side of the Son of Heaven to play the pair, and on the other side there was the disgusting Bian Lingcheng. Before he had time to pay a big salute, the Son of Heaven sat him down, and then handed over Bian Lingcheng's expression and Lubu Feijie's silk book to Yang Guozhong by the eunuch.

After reading the content of the statement clearly, Yang Guozhong's hands trembled in shock, and he almost fell to the ground with the expression in his hand. At the same time, he secretly scolded the little yellow door in his heart, obviously Gao Xianzhi burned down the Taiyuan warehouse, and from now on, the east of Tongguan will be completely the world of thieves and rebels, how can the Son of Heaven be happy?

But when he looked through the Feijie silk book, Yang Guozhong wondered again, wasn't that Xin'an county lieutenant dead? Moreover, the imperial court also added the nickname of Wen Lie to him, how could this person not only stabilize the situation after Gao Xianzhi retreated, but even killed the Kip Shi guard and thousands of Hu soldiers.

As a result, there is a great contradiction between the expression in his hand and the content of the book of good news. Although Yang Guozhong was incompetent in military affairs, he was by no means a useless person, and he immediately realized that someone must have lied. At this time, Xiao Huangmen's face resurfaced with a sneer, and tasted the sage Longyan Dayue again, and he immediately realized that the Son of Heaven must be more inclined to the latter, that is, the slightly broken silk book of good news.

In an instant, the thoughts in Yang Guozhong's mind turned back and forth, and Bian Lingcheng was out of the limelight a few days ago, and even led the Son of Heaven to add a nickname to a nine-grade official. Now it is Qin Wenlie, who is single-handedly created by this person, who has come back from the dead, and the Son of Heaven and the imperial court will lose face, just like a slap in the face. Bian Lingcheng has been jumping up and down, he has long been unpleasant, but now he naturally doesn't mind taking advantage of the situation and stepping on it.

There is something more important than this, since there is still room for relaxation in the situation outside the Guan, it is not impossible to stop Ge Shuhan from taking charge of the army!

After all kinds of thoughts settled in his mind, Yang Guozhong first congratulated Li Longji, the son of heaven, "Congratulations to the saint on getting a good general again." Then he expressed his opinion on the silk book of "Lubu Feijie". "A fire has disturbed the hearts of the rebel Hu army, and the imperial court should immediately send troops out of the pass to take advantage of the victory to suppress and pursue, so as not to cause Qin, Qin and Jin's actions to be in vain!"

To be honest, Yang Guozhong's suggestion is very pertinent, he stumbled when he mentioned Qin Jin, and almost said the nickname agreed upon by the imperial court before, so he added: "Since Qin Jin is not dead, the nickname 'Wenlie' should not be used anymore, I don't know what the sage wants?"

After finishing speaking, Li Longji cast a very satisfied gaze, and Yang Guozhong's two suggestions won the sacred heart, "What about Qing's opinion?"

The reason why Yang Guozhong was able to win the favor of Li Longji, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the identity of the imperial concubine's brother, is also very important, that is, he is good at observing the sacred heart. This ability is not far behind even compared with Li Linfu, but it is a pity that he is far behind in his ability to govern and his skills of scheming.

"The minister thinks that Qin Jin has merit in killing thieves, since he has been posthumously named Hongnong County Taishou, and now it is confirmed that the death is untrue, and it is not appropriate to take his post again, but with the nine grades of the small officials suddenly and Zai Zhi of the same product, I am afraid that there is something wrong, how to reduce from the upper county too shou to the middle county too shou, the rank is under the four grades, the sage originally intended to promote him to the history of Hongnong County, so that the rank is higher than from the fifth grade, and it will not chill the heart of the hero. ”

Li Longji was noncommittal, and turned his gaze to Wei Jiansu, the servant of the door, "What do you think?"

Wei Jiansu replied solemnly: "The words of the minister, the old man seeks the country, and the minister has no objection!"

"The minister has an objection!"

The floor of the hall trembled with slamming footsteps, Ge Shuhan strode in, a purple robe could not cover his strong body, and his breath was aggressive, Yang Guozhong didn't need to look back to know who it was, secretly frightened, the last time the saint summoned him, he could even clearly see that his body was vague, and he was encouraging and supporting, how could he be like a bell today, and his steps were like a rock?

"The small officials of the county court will be on an equal footing with the old guys who have been in power for half their lives, if the saint sets such a bad example, how can he reward his merits in the future? Could it be that after the thief Hu Wei is pacified, the whole court will obey Zhu Zi to the fullest?"

The words of Geshuhan are like bells and drums, and the ears of people who shake are buzzing.

"Old, brother Shu is presumptuous!"

Yang Guozhong was angry and almost blurted out the word "old thief", but fortunately, he reacted in time to avoid losing his honor in front of the king.

Ge Shuhan sneered twice, and shot at Yang Guozhong like an electric eagle.

"If there is no reward and punishment, how can we govern the political army? If the military and political affairs are not coordinated, how can we calm down the rebellion?

The words are sharp and spicy, and the reproach and sarcasm are not hidden.

"Before the saint drove, he spat out wild words, lost his honor in front of the king, and did not quibble again!" Yang Guozhong's face was red, and he was extremely angry.

"Shut up!"

Li Longji's chest could obviously be seen to rise and fall rhythmically, and the sentence "not as peaceful and prosperous" in Ge Shuhan's words stung him deeply, and he trembled all over, and suddenly woke up.

Yes, the peaceful and prosperous era has ended in Tianbao for 14 years, and now Hebei is erosive, Hedong is in danger, and even the east is in the hands of thieves. This is unique in the more than 100 years since the founding of Datang, Li Longji has been the pride of the Taiping Emperor for more than 40 years, and the pride he has built all his life has been smashed by Zahuer's three fists and two feet. Now, even the last bit of self-esteem has been stripped away by the courtiers. No matter how deep his city is, no matter how good his cultivation is, he can't help but explode.

I don't know how many years, maybe since Zhang Jiuling was exiled, Li Longji has never had such harsh words in his ears.

"The left servant is right, and the county court officials are suddenly on a par with the Zhongshu Sect, which is indeed my negligence. ”

Ge Shuhan solemnly saluted, "The saint is wise!"

Concentrate:

Regarding the prime minister, the Tang Dynasty implemented the group system, and the governors of the three provinces were the prime ministers, and gradually took the "three products under the door of the same book" as the prime minister in the time of Taizong, and the prestige was not as good as the three products, and it was "the same book under the door of the Ping Zhang"

In the text, Ge Shuhan is given the title of "Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi", and Shangjun Taishoupin's rank is from the third grade, so there is a saying that they are on an equal footing, although the power positions of the two are very different in fact.
