Chapter 42: The Dilemma (7)
Wang Yu introduced Yang Ling into the second hall, although it is not such an important occasion as the lobby, but it is obviously the place where the guests are gathered, in the room, the left and right two painting screens are hollowed out and carved with "Shizi stepping on the spring map", "a hundred years of Chaofeng map", these two picture screens are taken from the literary prosperity, the meaning of all industries are prosperous, the characters on it are simple, the carving is fine, so that Yang Ming almost can't pull out his eyes.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a sandalwood plaque hanging directly above the hall, on which are written "Zhongzheng Renhe" four ancient and powerful characters. The walls under the plaque are elegantly decorated. A table of eight immortals stands under the plaque, and the table is upright for the god of Sage Kong. The one sitting on the right side of the table wearing a black-winged official hat and a purple official uniform is Tong Guan, with an elegant face and a somewhat dark complexion.
Yang Ling's set of undisciplined fancy play, taking advantage of the momentum of the people of Xiongzhou to involve this Xuanshuai Mansion in it, is because although Tong Guan is quite impatient, he still has to press his temperament and ask Yang Ling about the ins and outs of the conflict.
He sat down on the top of the head, and saw a young man with clear eyebrows and white teeth and red lips coming in from outside the door, he looked no more than in his early twenties, and although his long shirt was not very ornate, he was neatly dressed, which made people look more and more refreshed.
Yang Ling came in plain clothes without armor, and he was so conspicuous, although he was a little unaccustomed to kneeling and bowing, but at this time, he had no choice but to do so, "My subordinates meet Xuanshuai!" ”
Tong Guan sat on the top and was silent for a long time, just quietly watching Yang Ling kneel on the ground.
Tong Guan has held the military power of the Great Song Dynasty for many years, and the temperament of the superior is swept by the tiger's eyes, Yang Ling only felt a gust of cold wind hitting his back, but he didn't dare to raise his head.
"Yang Ling, you are so bold!" Tong Guan finally spoke, and as soon as he spoke, he asked for guilt.
If ordinary people have already been frightened and turn around and run away (that is not daring), such majesty, where will not make the subordinates tremble.
But at this moment, Yang Ling is just the opposite, but there is no nervousness when he first came in, the more Tong Guan is lustful to you, it proves that you are safe, and the more he seems to be affectionate to you, and he is a confidant. Be careful at this time.
Maybe his heart is already afraid of you.
Therefore, this incident tells us that people must not get carried away when they are proud, and they must not lose confidence in life when they are afraid.
Only then did Yang Ling raise his head and said solemnly, "Xuan Shuai is clearly investigating, and I really don't know what is wrong with my humble position." ”
Tong Guan stood up and asked, "You first made an opinion, attacked and killed the Jurchen nobles, and then incited the people to besiege the Xuanshuai Mansion, don't you know the crime!" ”
The scene suddenly became cold, Wang Yu just wiped a handful of old sweat for Yang Ling outside the hall, Xuan Shuai was just guessing this time, and he was a little tempted by Yang Ling, but he knew the majesty of Xuan Shuai, ordinary people had already kowtowed and begged for mercy under this, and 1510 explained what he had done clearly, and at this time, it was time for Xuan Shuai to really raise the butcher knife.
To tell the truth, when the people rushed into the Xuanshuai Mansion, almost all the brains would suspect Yang Ling, and Wang Yu also went to ask the Shengjie soldiers of the Chengnan Post Station for this reason.
Sure enough, Yang Keshi had seen Yang Ling the day before, although there was no direct evidence, but if this situation was reported to Tong Guan, Tong Guan had already praised Yang Ling with a smile at this moment, but under the smile was murderous, don't think about it, within three months, after the rumors, Yang Ling will definitely die.
Wang Yu also learned about Yang Ling by the way, this person crossed the Baigou River in the north, killed the Liao people and was promoted, but he was a good man.
And the Jurchen Tartars slaughtered the villagers for no reason, it is also true, after Wang Yu sorted out the context, but did not report the truth to Tong Guan, in his mind, people always have some conscience, can not dare to use things to push into the fire pit, I hope this Yang Ling can withstand the pressure, there is only so much that can be done.
"Xuanshuai Mingjian, when the people collided with Xuanshuai this time, his subordinates have been detained for two days in the Chengnan Post Station, completely unaware, and someone may be adding fuel to the fire, but it is by no means under the standard of the district." Yang Ling put his status very low, his attitude was extremely sincere, and he took advantage of Tong Guan's inattention, pinched himself fiercely, blinked his eyes, and brewed for a long time, but these tears just couldn't drop.
Wang Yu outside saw Yang Ling's small movements, and the expression on his face was extremely exciting, and even a little distorted.
Tong Guan didn't see it, but when he heard Yang Ling's words, his expression finally softened a little, and he continued to ask, "Even so, but Jurchen is an envoy, and you have not reported to Shangfeng and sent troops privately, how can you explain it?" ”
"His subordinates have been in the army for less than two years, no better than Xuan Shuai who has been in charge of the Western Army for many years, and he has been planning the country for many years, and he has acted inconsiderately, which has brought a lot of trouble to Xuan Shuai, and he deserves to die for his crimes." Yang Ling first took the blame, and since these words, it naturally gave Tong Guan a great face.
Thousands of clothes, sycophants are not worn, although these words seem too straightforward, but Tong Guan is still extremely useful, and he can't help but have a more solemn expression, wanting to better show his celebrity bearing.
Seeing Tong Guan like this, Yang Ling continued, "Before his subordinates joined the army, they took Xuan Shuai as a table, and vowed to emulate Xuan Shuai to be loyal to the country, and worked hard for decades. Yang Ling felt a chill when he said this, goosebumps rose all over his body, and he silently added in his heart, he would never be a eunuch anyway.
Tong Guan comforted, "It is extremely rare for you to have such a heart, you need to know that state affairs are difficult, and in some cases, you are also extremely exhausted. ”
This dead eunuch, his face is actually thicker than Lao Tzu, such an obvious sycophant, he actually suffered it directly, Yang Ling stabilized his mind, "This time the Jurchen Tartars really deceived me Da Song too much, and I wanted to lead the troops to stop it, but after all, it was a step too late, the death of the innocent women and children was so fierce, and the Jurchen humanity was annihilated, which was outrageous." ”
"My subordinates have heard that Xuan Shuai has been in charge of the Western Army for many years, and he has crusaded against the Western Xia, and the three sergeants are Gao Ma Teng, and at this time, the official family has a paper edict to the side, and the warlock looks at the world, and it is not suitable to go out this month, and the edict ordered Xuan Shuai to collect the troops, and the Xuan Shuai is wise and decisive, and he does not issue an edict secretly. When Yang Ling said this, Tong Guan couldn't help but be a little flustered, the battle back then was indeed the proud work of his life.
At that time, the Western Xia was still very strong, and he gathered the heavy troops of the Western Army and prepared to fight a tough battle with the Western Xia, but just when everything was ready and he was about to pull out the camp and set off, the official's edict arrived in the army, but it said that the celestial phenomena showed that it was not suitable to go out on the expedition this month, so he ordered himself to collect his troops and wait for the next day.
At that time, Tong Guan did not announce the content of the edict, but only said that the official family condoled the three armies, and then immediately sent troops and won a big victory.
There is no big decision to do this, and the bold people can do it?
