Chapter 20: Yang Chong's dismissal

The affairs of Pei's mansion were like the wind, and soon spread to Chang'an and Luoyang, just as the comet appeared, and the court demanded that Yang Chong's recital float out like snowflakes, twenty-two copies on the first day, thirty-seven copies on the second day, and even the Yanshi County Order, which could not be related to the eight poles, was played, and the charges were murder, disturbing the people, and exceeding the system. Several ministers in the center couldn't cry or laugh, Yang Chong is also a petty official of the eighth grade, as for such a stirring up of the people? But it couldn't move Yang Chong.

Because there are three people in the court arguing for Yang Chong, the first is Wei Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who thinks that Yang Chong is right, offending the angel is a capital crime, and there is no need to ask the reason; The second is Duan Wenzhen, the secretary of the Ministry of War, who said that Yang Chong and his entourage were right to send a signal for help, which was a means just in case, and could not be judged as disturbing the people; The third figure that no one expected, Dr. Kong Yingda, Kong Yingda's opinion is that Yang Chong does not exceed the system at all, and Pei Yuan is a domestic slave of the Pei family, not even a commoner.

Kong Yingda word Chongyuan, Jizhou Hengshui people, the thirty-first grandson of Confucius, a student of the great Confucian Liu Zhuo, after the Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang ascended the throne, reopened the country's sub-school, Kong Yingda should come out at the time, countermeasures Gao Di, awarded the doctor of Hanoi County Studies. This time, Kong Yingda came to Luoyang because the imperial court conquered Confucianism all over the world, concentrated in Luoyang, presided over by Menxia Province, and held a large-scale Confucian discussion conference following the story of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty Shiqu Discussion Scripture and Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty White Tiger Discussion Ceremony.

The bigwigs all know that Kong Yingda stands out for Yang Chong, which must be the meaning of his teacher Liu Zhuo, Liu Zhuo and Zhuge He are confidants. During the reign of Emperor Wen, Yang Xi, the king of Shu, sent Liu Zhuofa to the remote areas to fill the army, and Zhuge He beat the Dengwen drum in front of the palace in a fit of rage, and refused to go out of the palace from then on; After Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne, Liu Zhuo was re-appointed as a doctor of Taixue. Now that Zhuge He's disciples are being attacked, Liu Zhuo naturally can't stand idly by.

The two sides quoted scriptures, quarreled with each other, argued for several days without results, and finally Gao Gong suggested that there was no need to waste energy for such a trivial matter, Yang Chong was still young, it was better to let Yang Chong suspend his post first to reflect and avoid the limelight. As soon as Yang Su was gone, Gao Gong's prestige in the court was unmatched, and as soon as the words came out, the situation immediately changed, and even Yang Guang, the Emperor of Sui Yang, could not stop him; However, Wei Xuan still made an article with suspension, allowing Yang Chong to obtain three hectares of vocational land and two hundred acres of Yongye land in Chang'an.

Yang Chong is the center of attention in Chang'an at the moment, and after receiving the holy decree, Yang Chong himself didn't feel anything, and after handing over the errand to the Ministry of Industry, he happily returned to Yu Wenkai's workshop; It's a pity that the workshop is not clean, Yang Chong saw Wei Fuzi waiting for him when he got home, Wei Lei, Wei Heng, and Wei Long were crying on the side, and hurriedly asked what happened?

It turned out that Wei Fuzi was forced by the clansmen to have no choice, so he first stopped Wei Lei's mission in the Ministry of Industry, and it was best to sell Wei Lei, Wei Heng, and Wei Long. This is a bolt from the blue for Wei Lei and the others, the three of them don't care, but what about the three families with more than a dozen people? In Chang'an, there are few people who are better treated than the Wei family, and the Wei family doesn't want them, and other families don't dare to ask for them. Wei Fuzi sighed and said, "Yang Chong, I am friends with Lord Yuwen and Daochang Feng, it shouldn't be like this, but the conditions offered by the Pei family are getting bigger and bigger, and I can't stand it." ”

Yang Chong asked, "Why doesn't Lord Wei give them a free body?" ”

Yuwenhu said with a smile: "Yang Chong, this is what you don't understand, Master Wei gave them a free body, they have to serve and pay taxes, they have neither land nor business, how can they live?" What's more, at this cusp, Lord Wei is taking a stand by doing that, just like your senior brother can't come forward to buy it. ”

Yang Chong secretly scolded himself for being confused, this kind of thing Wei Fuzi must have discussed with Yu Wenkai before he appeared in front of him. Yang Chong nodded and said: "I understand, if Brother Wei and they don't dislike it, I am willing to pay for the three families, but I don't know if I have this qualification." ”

Wei Fuzi was overjoyed and said, "You are an official of the imperial court, of course you have this qualification." I asked the three of them, and they were all willing to follow you, and I said a price, one hundred taels of gold for each family, of course, Yang Chong, if it is inconvenient for you to have money, you can also hang up the account and use other things to pay. ”

Other things, naturally, are those formulas that Yang Chong came up with, Yuwenhu and Wei Lei were furious, Yang Chong is willing to help you, and you Wei Fuzi can't do this. Yang Chong looked at Wei Fuzi with a smile, and said leisurely: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, I only have one request, that is, I ask Master Wei to tell me what price the Pei family has paid to make your Wei family tempted." Otherwise, thirty taels of gold per household. ”

Wei Fuzi laughed and said: "Yang Chong, you are really an interesting person, no wonder Yunqi asked me to quote an offer of one hundred taels of gold, and I won't make any money in vain." Let me tell you, the Pei family agreed to marry our Wei family, and each of the five rooms of the Pei family has a marriage of relatives. ”

Five surnames and seven wangs, almost do not intermarry with outsiders, this bargaining chip is indeed surprisingly high, and the Wei family can be in Guanlong and Shandong from now on, and become the coordinator of the two major scholar groups. Yang Chong shook his head and asked, "Can the documents be brought?" ”

"Brought. The old man naturally can't talk about white teeth. Wei Fuzi looked at Yang Chong with interest, this young man missed Wei Du, and every time he had amazing moves, he didn't know what flower head essence was today. Yang Chong turned around and asked Wei Lei and the others, "Are you willing to follow me?" ”

Wei Lei and the others immediately knelt down and said, "Lord Yang, if we enter the Yang family, we will have no two hearts. ”

Yang Chong helped the three of them up: "The three eldest brothers are serious. ”

After speaking, Yang Chong walked back to his room, and he didn't come out much, more than six catties of pepper were placed on the table, and Yuwenhu weighed it, six catties and two taels, Yang Chong added another ten taels of gold, Wei Fuzi took out a stack of paperwork and handed it to Yang Chong, took the gold aside and said: "Don't squeeze the old man, these peppers are enough." ”

After finishing the paperwork, Wei Fuzi left, and Wei Lei and the three of them also went back to move their families; Yuwenhu took out a house deed and gave it to Yang Chong and said: "This is an idle house of the Yuwen family, which has been changed to your name according to the instructions of Young Master Kai, maybe a little smaller, but it should be more than enough to accommodate the three of them." ”

Yang Chong refused: "Uncle Tiger, how can this be?" ”

Yuwen Hu said with a straight face: "What's not to do, are you afraid that if you take this house, you will be labeled as our Xianbei people." ”

Yuwenhu's words are very heavy, since Tuoba Wei, until the Sui, although the Xianbei nobles of Guanlong have always held military power, but they are incompatible with the Guan sergeant clan and cannot develop in Shandong, one of the big reasons is that the differences between the Xianbei and Han people, many Han people would rather have no future, and they would rather not invest in the Xianbei nobles. Yang Chong knew that he had crossed over and offended the Pei family, if he did not have the protection of Emperor Yang of Sui and the nobles of Guanlong, he might die in a minute, Yang Chong immediately raised his hand and surrendered, accepted the deed and said: "They are all the people of the Great Sui, how can there be such a statement, I will thank Senior Brother and Uncle Hu." ”
