Because he was questioned by Yang Su for the first time when he returned to the court, Zhang Heng was greatly dissatisfied with the results obtained by Yuwen Shufeng who was transferred back to Beijing to win over the Yang brothers, and told Yang Jian to retire and walked out of Daxing Palace, that is, he came to Yuwen Shu to inquire about the details.

Yu Wenshu was inconvenient to tell Zhang Heng truthfully that he had won over Li Yuan by mistake, and he was worried about being denounced by him, so he had not yet started to win over the Yang brothers, and only told Zhang Heng that Yang Su's status in the DPRK was no longer comparable to that in the past, and he was actually the prime minister of the DPRK and China. At the same time, in order to avoid Zhang Heng from perceiving the flaws in his words, Yuwenshu also turned against the guest and asked Zhang Heng for advice on how to persuade Yang Su to become Yang Guang's internal aid in the court.

"When I was in Jiankang, didn't I hear Botong say that you have some friendship with Yang Yue, why don't you start with him, first persuade Yang Yue to support King Jin, and then ask Yang Yue to persuade his brother?" Zhang Heng flashed Yuwenshu suspiciously, and reminded him, "When I entered the palace today, I didn't see the emperor summoning the prince to listen to the government, which shows that the prince's status in the emperor's mind is not as good as before, and it was Yang Yue who came to the state to pass the decree, which fulfilled the marriage between the prince and the princess, and it can be regarded as having some friendship with the prince. ”

Yuwen said with a sad face: "At first, although Yang Yue had my help, he entered the palace to make the Changqiu prison order, but since then, I have been away from Beijing, and the two of us have been neglecting to return for so many years, if he blindly prevaricates this time, what should he do?" ”

A strange smile appeared on Zhang Heng's face, leaned forward, approached Yu Wenshu's ear, lowered his voice and said something to him, only to see Yu Wenshu's face become cheerful, and nodded again and again: "Just according to what Jianping said, I'll try it." ”

Yang Yue has been sitting in the position of Shaoqing in Dali Temple for four or five years, but he has never been promoted from Shaoqing to Zhengqing, which makes him realize a truth that makes him feel very frustrated: no matter how he works hard for the court and is in charge of the litigation of the dynasty, the court will not appoint a person with a disability to be ranked as Jiuqing.

Since he accidentally fell from a tree when he was a child and lost that job, Yang Yue's fate in this life has been doomed: no matter how talented he is, no matter how outstanding his talent is, he can only be a eunuch who runs errands and serves others. Even if he paid much more effort and price than others, he was easily transferred from Changqiu Jian to a legal and political yamen like Dali Temple, but he still couldn't get rid of working hard for others, but it was difficult for him to go further in his career, become Jiuqing, and go side by side with his brother.

At the same time, after losing his man's job, Yang Yue became a person without a queen, and with the setbacks in his career, his interest gradually shifted to another thing in the world that can arouse people's infinite desires: love of money.

Speaking from the heart, Yang Yue is not a corrupt official, as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, in fact, he is the messenger of Dali Temple, and in the past few years, in addition to the court rewards and gifts from relatives and friends, Yang Yue has almost never received a penny in official affairs. As the saying goes: a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. Although he Yang Yue is a eunuch, he thinks that he is still a scholar and disdains to do those dirty things.

Although he does not accept bribes, Yang Yue is still happy to accept the money won at the gambling table, especially in recent years, he has seen that the chief of the government office has changed no less than three or four, and his own Shaoqing is still a Shaoqing, and gradually feel disheartened about the official career, occasionally make an appointment with a few friends in his spare time, and have fun at the gambling table, which has become his greatest pleasure.

With Yang Yue's mind and wisdom, it is impossible for him not to know that among these people who gamble with him late at night, there are people who use gambling to bribe and convey benefits to him, but across a small gambling table, he has an illusion intentionally or unintentionally: even if someone really bribes him in this way, he won it with his superb gambling skills and good luck, and it is not considered a bribe, not to mention, he has never done a wrong case because of winning these people's money.

In recent days, Yang Yue has added another thing to his heart: he found that since his brother Yang Su was reused by the emperor and ruled in the court, more and more people have asked to join him in the ranks of gambling friends, and his status has become higher and higher. Of course, he understood that it was not him who these people were targeting, but his brother Yang Su behind him.

Yang Yue and Yang Su, the two brothers, have had a deep relationship since childhood, and he has a deep understanding of his brother's bumpy experience in the early years, and knows that his brother's current official position is not easy to come by, and he does not want to cause trouble for Yang Su because of himself, so he closed the door and thanked all the gamblers who wanted to please and befriend Yang Su through him, and strictly limited the people who gambled with him to a handful of people.

However, his original Engongyu Wenshu was the one that Yang Yue couldn't refuse.

As early as when Yang Yue was just an ordinary eunuch, Yuwenshu was already the general of the right guard, and he was one of the most important ministers in front of the emperor.

The reincarnation of the world, what Yang Yue didn't expect was that ten years later, he and Yuwenshu became people with the same fate: he was an official and met the ceiling, and Yuwenshu was even more unlucky, and the official became smaller and smaller, first implicated by domestic servants, and was relegated from Chang'an to other states to do assassination, and in recent years, it was easy to achieve the position of the governor with military merits, but because of two murders in succession under his rule, he was relegated back to Beijing.

It was precisely because Yang Yue had a deep sympathy for Yu Wenshu's plight that when Yu Wenshu took the initiative to become his gambling friend, Yang Yue was not aware of his true motives, and happily invited him to join the gambling game in his family, regarding him as his most affectionate old friend.

According to the method taught to him by Zhang Heng, Yu Wenshu initially participated in the gambling game set up by Yang Yue's house for three or five days, and the bets were not large, and he even often won some money from Yang Yue, giving Yang Yue the illusion that he came here to gamble purely to relieve boredom and pass the time, and then gradually increased the intensity of betting, intentionally losing to Yang Yue some pearls, jadeites and other treasures.

Whenever Yang Yue insisted on returning the treasures he had won from Yu Wenshu to him, Yu Wenshu would reply with a smile: "Brother, these are all things that my brother has given to others in his foreign office over the years, they are really nothing, there is no difference between me and you, you can take it with confidence." ”
