Chapter 298: There is another deep meaning

When Yang Xianmao heard that there was such a good thing, he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, "But I don't know what the two situations the emperor said?"

Song Taizong said: "First, when I drove the expedition in person, you went out with me to escort me and my love. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Yang Xianmao thought about it, after all, the emperor's personal expedition is very small, and it is impossible to take the army to fight all day long, so it doesn't hurt to agree, after all, he is loyal to the king, so he nodded and said, "Yes, what about the second situation?"

"When I decree an amnesty to pray for the world, you must hurry to the capital to share my worries. ”

In ancient times, the emperor's closest people were seriously ill and could not be cured for a long time, and sometimes they would give amnesty to the world in order to pray for blessings, but this was not very common.

Yang Xianmao thought to himself, the emperor's closest person was sick, so it was reasonable to go back to treat him, but he thought about it and said: "Your Majesty, I am mainly good at Jinchuang surgery, and I am not good at other medical sciences. ”

Song Taizong said: "Of course I know. I only ask you to rush back at that time to participate in the treatment, as for whether you can be cured, I will not force it, everything is subject to the destiny of heaven. ”

With the emperor's words, Yang Xianmao was of course relieved. Anyway, I was about to go to Youzhou to find Princess Wende, and I happened to stop by. Immediately got up and bowed and saluted: "The emperor has an order, don't dare to disobey." I agreed to both cases, in fact, it doesn't matter if I am an official or not, I will be recruited back when the time comes. ”

Song Taizong smiled and beckoned him to sit down and said, "Since you agreed, then you will follow me to the Northern Expedition to the Liao Dynasty." With you on the expedition, my love will have an extra guarantee. Just like today, if these two of my right-hand men are broken, then I really can't make up my mind to attack the Liao Dynasty. ”

Yang Xianmao hesitated slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, my Great Song army has besieged the Northern Han Dynasty for nearly five months, and the soldiers are very tired.......

Song Taizong waved his hand and said: "You are an expert in healing diseases and wounds, but you don't understand marching and fighting." Our army is certainly a tired division, but now that we have defeated the Northern Han, our morale is high, and our 200,000 troops have not lost much, and the total number of troops who received the Northern Han is nearly 300,000. The most important thing is that the Liao Dynasty did not deploy heavy troops in the sixteen states of Youyun in the south, and there were only some old, weak, sick and disabled people in Youzhou. I've already heard about it. Now is the perfect opportunity to repair and recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. Taking advantage of the fact that the Liao Dynasty was not ready, it was recaptured in one fell swoop. With the natural danger of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and then resist the iron hooves of the Liao Dynasty, it will be foolproof. ”

Although Yang Xianmao felt that it was really not a wise move to fight the Liao Dynasty now, but seeing that the emperor was so excited and confident, he really didn't understand military affairs, so he didn't say more.

Song Taizong stood up and said, "I am going back to the military camp outside the city, and the palace will be handed over to you." As I said just now, whatever you like, as long as you can take it away, you can take as much as you want. This is my reward for you. Tomorrow at dawn, I will send someone to remove all the things here, and inform the people of the city to evacuate Jinyang City, I want to burn Jinyang City to the ground!"

Yang Xianmao was taken aback: "Why do you want to burn it down? ”

Song Taizong said with compassion: "Our Great Song Dynasty does not lack this city, my Shuai army has not been able to break the city for five months, and the people of the whole city have gone into battle to resist my Great Song Dynasty, and the people of the city are the enemies of my Great Song Dynasty." Therefore, I decided that if Liu Jiyuan did not surrender, once the city was broken, it would be slaughtered. Although he surrendered now, I will not slaughter the city, but I will burn the city to the ground with a fire, and vent the hatred in my heart. ”

Yang Xianmao couldn't help but feel secret, it can be seen that Song Taizong is ruthless, accompanied by a tiger like a tiger, his previous decision was wise, in these days with him, he must be more careful, must not touch his bad head, it is not interesting to be boring, it is not impossible to provoke death.

Song Taizong stood up, with a gloomy face, and left the palace with a group of guards, eunuchs, and palace maids. In the huge Northern Han Palace, only Yang Xianmao was left.

The emperor had decreed that no one was allowed to enter the palace until dawn, and whatever Yang Xianmao brought out of the palace was not hindered.

Yang Xianmao stood on top of the main hall in a daze, looking at the empty hall, somehow feeling a little creepy in his heart, and he didn't know where this feeling came from.

He stayed for a moment, then began to search in the palace.

Soon, he found the palace's treasure house.

He worked as a medicine boy in the palace hospital of Wu Yueguo, and heard that the emperor in the palace because there were too many treasures, in addition to his favorite often carried with him or placed in the palace at any time to play, a large number of other treasures were stored in the treasure hall for rewarding or giving back to the envoys of Fanguo.

Therefore, there should also be similar houses in the Northern Han Dynasty. He soon found the Treasure Hall, a separate attic next to the palace of the Northern Han Dynasty.

Yang Xianmao came to the attic, and was stunned for a moment, because the door of the attic was open and not locked. He stepped in, and saw a lantern hanging in the attic, brightly lit, and a box piled up like a hill, all of which were open, and all the boxes were unlocked. Inside the jewels, dazzling, all kinds of rare treasures are countless.

Yang Xianmao looked at the boxes of treasures like a small mountain, and his heart sank, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Song Taizong suddenly handed over a huge palace to himself and let him take things at will, is there any deep meaning in this?

You must know that the treasures in the palace are innumerable, even if they are limited to what one person can take, it is incomprehensible. No, no one is willing to give up the fruits of victory to others, not even the emperor. There must be a deep meaning in it.

Could it be that Song Taizong wanted to use this to find out whether he was a greedy person for money? As long as an official is greedy for money, this person must not be reused, because a person who is greedy for money will inevitably give up his principles for the sake of money, and this is what the emperor does not want to see.

Now he is the imperial physician by the emperor's side, the emperor's closest person, and the emperor wants to entrust his health and even his life to himself, and he needs to know what kind of person he is and whether he can be entrusted with important tasks.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Xianmao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Song Taizong had already come to the palace before, when he was healing the injuries of those two eighth-level powerhouses. He had enough time to check how many treasures there were in the palace, and if he took the treasures himself, it would definitely be known to him, and his image would plummet in the emperor's heart, and he would definitely be overwhelmed. If you can't get it right, you have to find a way to cure your own sins.

Thinking of this, Yang Xianmao hurriedly walked out of the Treasure Pavilion, clapped his hands, and left without looking back.

He originally wanted to leave the palace just like that, but after thinking about it, if he didn't take anything, Song Taizong might guess that he had already thought of the calculation in his heart, but he would not be able to achieve his goal of testing himself, and he would not be able to gain the emperor's trust, so he had to take something as his reward, and this thing was precious but definitely could not give the emperor the impression of greedy for money.

He walked around the palace and found that almost all the rooms with treasures were open, which confirmed his suspicions.

When he arrived at the gate of the Tai Hospital, he immediately had an idea in his heart.

He stepped into the courtyard and came to the library of the Tai Hospital. The door here is just hidden. He pushed the door in, quickly browsed, and found that there are really a lot of medical books in the Northern Han Dynasty Library, although it is not as good as Wu Yueguo's library, but it also has his own uniqueness, there are many medical classics for the treatment of common diseases in the Northern Xinjiang area, and many of them are precious classics.

Of course, he will not be polite to these medical books, as long as he can see them and put them aside.

He didn't put it directly in his storage bag, because he believed that the guards outside the palace would see him when he went out. If you don't bring a package, and there are a lot of precious medical books here, it's strange, and it's not good to guess that you have a storage bag.

Anyway, the emperor has already said that the contents are free to take by himself, and taking away the medical books will not only not give people the impression of greed for money, but will make the emperor think that he likes to study medical skills, and can make the emperor happy. After all, the emperor must have hoped that his imperial physician would be as skilled as possible, so that his life would be more secure.

After Yang Xianmao collected a large bag of medical books that he could see, he carried it with a large piece of blue cloth and carried it on his back.

And by this time, the east had gradually brightened.

Yang Xianmao carried this large bag of books on his back and staggered out of the palace. A luxury carriage was parked at the door. Not far away, listen to a long line of carriages carrying goods, and you can't see the end at a glance, compared to the treasures used to transport the treasures in the palace of the Northern Han Dynasty.

When the guards saw him come out, they hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Yang Gongzi, the Holy Lord has ordered that this carriage is for Yang Gongzi to use, and the things you take out are put on the cart, if it is not enough, we will bring another carriage." ”

Yang Xianmao waved his hand and said, "No need, it's just a big bag of books." With that, he threw the package into the carriage, took a few breaths, and said, "This book is really heavy." ”

Several guards were very surprised, looked at each other, looked at Yang Xianmao and said, "The emperor can say, you can take any treasure in this palace, and it is all given to you by the emperor." Why did Yang Gongzi only take some books? There are a lot of treasures in the palace, didn't Yang Gongzi find them?"

Yang Xianmao smiled indifferently: "Money comes from things outside the body, how can it be compared to medical books? I have learned medical skills to cure diseases and save people, I want to be skilled in medicine, but I am still worried about no money? Money can be spent, but the wealth brought by medical skills is inexhaustible for a lifetime." ”

When several guards heard this, they nodded frequently, and even gave a thumbs up, praising Yang Xianmao for treating money like dung.

Yang Xianmao got into the car and went straight back to his house.

Along the way, he heard the soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty began to beat gongs and drums and shout loudly everywhere, telling the people in the city to withdraw from the city immediately, because the Great Song Emperor had issued an order to burn the entire Jinyang City, and if they did not evacuate in time, they would be burned to death and deserved to be burned.
