Chapter 073 rejects Yang Guozhong

It was not for nothing that Abs made a detour to Longyou and chose Ge Shuhan as the object of "refuge" to return to Tang again.

Ge Shuhan was a famous general of the Tang Dynasty and a Hu man. And what established Goshuhan's reputation was the Battle of Stone Castle City. At the time of the battle, Arbus's troops were under the command of Goshuhan.

At that time, Qinghai Lake was mainly the territory of Tuyuhun and Tubo, killing for many years, fighting endlessly, although the Tang Dynasty was in full swing, but Qinghai was not a place where the sun shone. From Qinghai Lake to Shancheng through Huangyuan, there is a stone castle city on the road, three cliffs and cliffs, only one side has a circling stone road to climb up. It was once a frontier outpost of the Tang Empire, and later fell into the hands of Tibet. Because of its impregnability, many generals tried to conquer it but failed to do so, and only Ge Shuhan became famous in one battle.

"You can't learn from Ge Shu, run rampant in Qinghai with a knife at night, and take a purple robe from the West Tushi Fort." This is Li Bai's poem, sung through the ages, and in this era, it is even more well-known.

Of course, the winner of the Battle of Stone Castle was Geshuhan, but as one of Goshuhan's generals at that time, Arbus naturally had a good relationship with Geshuhan.

And more importantly, An Lushan is Absi's mortal enemy, and Geshuhan is just one of the few towns in the Tang Dynasty that openly "contradicts" An Lushan, and he has always been suspicious. This was the key factor in Arbus's resolute decision to lead his army to capture the Hui Yi, and then quickly return to the south to join Geshuhan.

Ge Shuhan's secret report entered Beijing, which made Yang Guozhong very annoyed, and he smashed a jade tea cup with a lot of money on the spot.

Yang Guozhong didn't have an enmity with Absi, he didn't even have a deep impression of Absi himself. It's just that the recent rebellion case of the Tang Dynasty was only Absi, and he originally planned to frame Li Linfu and Absi for conspiring to rebel, but now Absi suddenly came to such a trick - the above table asked for surrender, and he also sent a letter of surrender that was enough to make the Tang Emperor tempted.

The chess pieces that could be used could not be used, and Yang Guozhong was irritable, but he was helpless.

Just as Colliers guessed, with Yang Guozhong's character, he decided to suppress Ge Shuhan's secret report for a few days before speaking. In fact, he also knew very well in his heart, such a military matter, Ge Shuhan must have secretly played the emperor at the same time, and Li Longji had already known about it.

It's just that Yang Guozhong didn't expect the emperor's reaction to be so fast.

He was sulking when an edict from the emperor came from the palace: pardon all the people of Abs's department and settle them on the spot, and be controlled by Geshuhan. Ordered Abs and his son to go to Beijing to plead guilty.

……

……

"Xiangye, Mrs. Qiuguo and Pei Gongzi are visiting."

The next person came to report, Yang Guozhong was closing his eyes in the study to relieve the messy emotions in his heart, and when he heard that Yang Sanjie's mother and son were coming, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Third sister is here?" Let's go, invite them to the flower hall, and the prime minister will pass. ”

Third Sister Yang and Pei Hui sat in the living room of the Yang Mansion and whispered, and after not seeing Yang Guozhong appear for a long time, Third Sister Yang was a little unhappy. Xindao: You Yang Guozhong is now developed and there is no one in your eyes, but I don't want to think about who pulled you when you were down-and-out and wandering on the streets of Chang'an? Dare to snub the old lady!

Third Sister Yang waved her long sleeves, looked up coldly at the maid of the Yang Mansion waiting in the hall, and said, "Have you ever told Yang Xiang that the mother and son of the slave family are here?" ”

Yang Guozhong's maid saw that Mrs. Qiuguo's face was not good, so she hurriedly bowed respectfully and whispered, "Madam, the slave and maid have already reported to the prime minister...... Xiangye is handling government affairs in the study, and he will come to see his wife soon. ”

Third Sister Yang sneered, "Yang Xiang is now the new upstart in the court...... If you don't have time, the slave mother and son don't dare to bother, so I will leave. ”

Pei Hui listened to his mother's words, frowned secretly on the side, and stopped talking.

Third Sister Yang was going to take him to Yang Guozhong, saying that she wanted to seek an official position for him. Pei Hui repeatedly refused, saying that he wanted to participate in next year's Spring Festival and become an official through his own efforts, but Yang Sanjie felt that her son's words were too naïve.

Mrs. Qiuguo's son, if you want to get an official and a half-job, do you still need to participate in the imperial examination? What a joke.

Third Sister Yang originally didn't have this kind of thought, but when she heard that Zhang Xuan was recommended by Yang Guozhong as an official, she was also moved and had the idea of finding a career for her son.

Third Sister Yang's words were loaded with guns and sticks, how could the maid dare to respond, she was in the middle of making promises, but she heard Yang Guozhong's laughter outside the hall, "Third sister, it's not a coincidence that you came, a certain family is dealing with state affairs." It's not over...... If there is any neglect, the third sister should not be surprised. ”

As he spoke, Yang Guozhong entered the hall and looked at Yang Sanjie's mother and son with awe-inspiring eyes.

The unhappiness on Yang Sanjie's face was immediately concealed, and she got up and gave Yang Guozhong a blessing at will, "I've seen Xiangye." ”

Pei Hui also got up and bowed respectfully, his voice soft, "Pei Hui greets Xiangye." ”

Yang Guozhong smiled and waved his hand, "You don't have to be polite to your own family - come and set up a banquet." ”

……

……

Third Sister Yang asked for an official for Pei Hui, and Yang Guozhong immediately agreed very happily. He now holds the administrative power of the Tang Dynasty, and arranging a background for Pei Hui is a matter of ease, and he doesn't even need to go through the emperor to do it. This kind of favor, he is happy to give one.

Besides, the children of the Yang family have obtained their origins from him, and there are many more. As the leader of the Yang family, even if Third Sister Yang does not take the initiative to speak, he will also consider Pei Hui in the future.

Seeing that Yang Guozhong agreed happily, Yang Sanjie was happy in her heart, and those unhappy emotions had long since disappeared with the wind. After a song and dance, a house slave hurriedly came to report, "Xiangye, Zhang Xuan and Zhang Gongzi have arrived." ”

Yang Guozhong smiled, "Let him in." ”

Third Sister Yang was stunned, and said in her heart, why did Yang Guozhong summon Zhang Xuan too? However, this little enemy has not been seen for a long time, and the slave family is still very worried in their hearts.

Yang Guozhong looked back at Third Sister Yang and smiled ambiguously, "Third Sister, this little Langjun of the Zhang family is talented and has a good character...... For the sake of the third sister, he gave him a chance. ”

From Yang Guozhong's words, I heard a little ambiguity, and Yang Sanjie's mature and charming face suddenly floated two red clouds, which made Yang Guozhong smile more ambiguously, while Pei Hui hung his head in embarrassment.

Although his temperament is weak, he is not stupid, how can he not see that his mother's ambiguous feelings for his husband are getting stronger and stronger, but he just deliberately avoids it.

At this time, Zhang Xuan had already walked into the hall quickly.

hurriedly threw a surprised glance at Yang Sanjie's mother and son, Zhang Xuan immediately bowed to Yang Guozhong, "Zhang Xuan has seen Xiangye." ”

"No need to be polite. Zhang Xuan, sit. Yang Guozhong had the intention to win over Zhang Xuan and accept him as a protégé, so his attitude was very courteous and cordial, "Your talent is very important." The prime minister has recommended you to the emperor as the Ministry of Rites, and I believe that the holy order will be issued in a few days......"

Yang Guozhong pretended to smile, hinting.

But the "gratitude" that he was looking forward to by Zhang Xuan and the gesture of bowing down on the spot and admitting himself as a disciple did not appear, but in exchange for Zhang Xuan's words that seemed to be respectful and grateful, but actually declined indifferently-

"Xiangye loves and supports, Zhang Xuan is grateful. It's just that Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites is an important position in the six yamen of the imperial court, and Zhang Xuan is shallow in his studies, young and shallow, and he doesn't dare to be a ...... for fear of misleading the country."

Zhang Xuan almost repeated what he had said in front of Li Longji in front of Yang Guozhong again, and Yang Guozhong's face suddenly became gloomy when he heard this.
