After listening to Nangong Ao's words, the Yellow Emperor's eyes flashed, and he immediately laughed: "I still thought that Prime Minister Yang Cheng had some military affairs, it turned out to be for his son's family affairs, but this child's family affairs should have been the words of the matchmaker for the parents' orders, and it seems inappropriate to come to me?" ”

"What His Majesty said is very true." Nangong Ao nodded and said: "This matter was originally what you and I wanted, but when Prime Minister Yang Cheng saw that I didn't agree, he actually made trouble here, which is obviously unreasonable, and I hope that His Majesty will ignore this guy." ”

"Hehe, don't worry, I won't do that, Yang Ke, the son of Prime Minister Yang, is really a gentleman as Aiqing said?" The Yellow Emperor asked.

"Yes, this Yang Ke is well-known in Liecheng, His Majesty can send someone to investigate."

"It's not necessary, I still believe Aiqing's words, but a few days ago, Jie'er pestered me to find an official position for her brother, and I also promised to give Yang Ke a position as the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, but now it seems that something is wrong." The Yellow Emperor said with a grin.

Nangong Ao smiled and said: "The concubine also loves her younger brother, thinking that her younger brother has a good future, this is also human nature, but in the eyes of the old minister, the Imperial Forest Army is guarding the Gyeonggi Heavy Land, and this Yang Ke is probably not suitable." ”

"I think so too, but I have already promised the concubine, how can I go back on my word?" The emperor said with some embarrassment.

"It's easy to do." Nangong Ao continued: "The day after tomorrow, Leng Shuang, the second daughter of the old minister, brought the selected disciples of the sect into the palace to face the saint. If these disciples want to serve as the emperor's inner guards, it is better to let Yang Chengxiang's son join in. ”

The Ouchi guards are actually more important than the Imperial Forest Army, but Nangong Ao hopes that Yang Ke will enter the Ouchi guards. Because this Ouchi guard is divided into two situations, one is a strong person, this kind of person can generally be promoted, and even become a general, and the other is a person who does nothing, and can only be a Ouchi guard for the rest of his life.

Nangong Ao expected that with Yang Ke's strength. There is no hope of glorifying their ancestors for their Yang family, as long as he has no future. The Yang family is completely finished.

That's what he wants to see.

The emperor's eyes narrowed, and he had already discovered Nangong Ao's scheming, but this kind of construction won his heart, and the Yang family could be regarded as coming to an end when it reached Yang Ke's generation. And several old families in the Southern Yan Kingdom should also change their blood, so that the empire can prosper forever.

"Come and pass on Prime Minister Yang"

With the summons of the little eunuch, Yang Lianjin quickly walked into the imperial study from the outside.

"The old minister greets His Majesty."

"No courtesy." The emperor said lightly and continued: "Prime Minister, I talked to the Taishi just now, I can't make the decision about the family affairs of your two children, so you should discuss it in private." ”

"But your majesty. The old minister has no credit for the empire and has hard work, my son wants to marry a woman he likes, doesn't His Majesty want to fulfill it? Yang Lianjin didn't get up. Continue to kneel on the ground.

Hearing Yang Lianjin's words, the Yellow Emperor was a little angry, and said coldly: "Prime Minister, what are you talking about?" Your contribution to the empire is in my eyes and in my heart, but you are you. Your son is your son, why do I fulfill your son's family because of you? All right. Don't talk nonsense, this matter will be done like this, you continue to discuss with the Taishi, if he is willing to marry his daughter, your son will be able to return with a beauty, if the Nangong family does not agree, even if you kneel to death, it is useless. ”

Yang Lianjin saw that the emperor's attitude was so resolute, and sighed deeply, knowing that even if he was forced to die, he would not be able to change this fact, "Yes, the old minister obeys the order." ”

The emperor's grim face was also a little calmer, and he continued: "In addition, I have another thing to ask you for is that your son doesn't want to be an official, I originally planned to arrange to serve as the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, but after thinking about it carefully, it is still"

Before the emperor's words were finished, Yang Lianjin planned him, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the position of deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army is very important, and the younger two are ignorant and dull, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do it, and please ask Your Majesty to take back your life." ”

The emperor and Nangong Ao were both slightly stunned, both of them looked at each other inexplicably, they thought that Yang Lianjin would definitely fight to protect his son's position as deputy commander, but they didn't expect him to give up so easily.

Why is that?

I couldn't figure it out at all, but since I didn't want this position, the emperor stopped being verbose and asked directly: "Prime Minister, what do you think Yang Ke is suitable for?" ”

Yang Lianjin deliberately pretended to think for a while before he said: "Your Majesty, our Yang family has been loyal for generations, in order to continue to be loyal to Your Majesty, my son is willing to protect Your Majesty and serve as Your Majesty's guard."

this

The emperor and Nangong Ao were stunned for a while, they were about to forcibly persuade Yang Lianjin to give up seeking the position of deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army for his son, but what they never expected was that Yang Lianjin took the initiative to give up this position, and instead chose the position of the Great Inner Guard, which was half of the light and half of the darkness, for his son.

But why is that? There's no reason for that!

"Prime Minister, did you really decide to send Ling Gongzi to the palace as a guard?" Nangong looked at Yang Lianjin in disbelief and asked.

"Of course." Yang Lianjin said seriously: "My Yang family has been loyal to martyrs for generations, and this time I didn't ask for it, but the dog took the initiative to ask for it, and he was willing to protect the emperor's comfort." ”

Nangong Ao crooked his mouth, Yang Lianjin took a bite of a loyal minister, and what he said seemed to be true, besides, there must be a demon in this matter, Yang Ke wanted to take the initiative to join the inner guard, obviously not out of loyalty to the emperor, but with other intentions.

Not only did Nangong Ao see that there was a problem, but the emperor also saw that he was a little tired, but he didn't know what it was, so he could only nod and say: "Since Yang Ke is so loyal to me, I agreed to come down Taishi, you can arrange it, and let Yang Ke also join the list of personnel you selected." ”

"Yes, the old minister obeys." Nangong Ao nodded.

"Okay, what else do you have to do?" The Emperor asked.

Yang Lianjin shook his head slightly, he came to the palace today only for two things, one was a family affair with the Nangong family, but the emperor did not agree, so forget it, and the second thing is to seek a position for his son, since he has already set the position of the inner guard, he has no requirements.

Nangong Ao thought for a moment, took a step forward, hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister still has one more thing to start." (To be continued)
