Chapter 345: Year Pass
In the blink of an eye, the eighth day of the lunar month has arrived.
According to Yang Xiaoyu's wishes, Yang Yong of Hangzhou sent another 500 cronies to Beijing, and arrived in the capital on the evening of the seventh day of the lunar month.
In order to make up for Li Wenshan and Xu Zhenghao, Yang Xiaoyu first rewarded them with 3,000 taels of silver each, and promised them that after the New Year, they would be promoted to Jinyi Wei Qianhu.
Li Wenshan and Xu Zhenghao also had no opinions, anyway, Yang Yong said very clearly before they came to the capital, and asked them to obey Yang Xiaoyu's orders.
Now Yang Xiaoyu assigned their subordinates to Chen Yingren, but after all, he had an explanation for the two of them, and he did not treat the two of them badly.
As soon as this matter was over, Yang Xiaoyu sent people to inquire about the Eight Emperors Association in the palace.
At noon, the guards reported to Yang Xiaoyu that nothing had been revealed about the Imperial Meeting.
Yang Xiaoyu smiled after hearing this, he thought that this time the emperor and the queen mother were assassinated, and there would be many royal relatives who couldn't help but find trouble with him, but he didn't expect that these people also understood the truth that those who know the times are handsome, and no one accused him of being careless.
Only a few famous officials of the Donglin Party made an excerpt to the court, saying that the emperor and the queen mother were assassinated, and the blame was all on Yang Xiaoyu, the commander of the Jinyi pro-army, and some people even folded and asked the emperor to punish Yang Xiaoyu.
Yang Xiaoyu picked a few thorns from among them, sent Jinyi guards to raid their mansions, and all those who copied out their family wealth of more than 10,000 taels of silver were all sent to the edict and imprisoned, and they were convicted of embezzlement.
Yang Xiaoyu dismissed all the officials who had clean sleeves and sent them back to their hometowns.
As a result, many Donglin officials who impeached Yang Xiaoyu were afraid of Jinyiwei's power, and they kept silent one by one and did not mention Yang Xiaoyu's culpability.
The Donglin Party shut up, so that some smart people in Zhejiang, Qi, and Chu saw the opportunity. They took advantage of this opportunity to sing praises to Yang Xiaoyu, saying that Yang Xiaoyu was a loyal and good general who was rare in a thousand miles, and the emperor should reward him.
Yang Xiaoyu only glanced at these twists and turns a few times, and then threw them aside, the reason why the officials of Zhejiang Qichu would speak to him. It's not because of his power, but because his grandfather is Fang Congzhe, and Shen Mingda, the servant of the ministry, is his father-in-law.
Laba has passed, and there are more than 20 days left before the New Year.
The court was jubilant, and many courtiers took leave for various reasons and began to enjoy themselves at home. Get ready for a comfortable New Year.
Yang Xiaoyu didn't dare to be idle, he stayed in the palace during the day, 'replaced' the emperor to deal with the twists and turns, he was very busy, of course, when he had spare time, he would also go to Feng Guiren's courtyard to have a chic trip.
In the evening, he did not return to the mansion. Go directly to Zhang Qiong's courtyard and conquer Zhang Qiong night and night. Enjoy it on Zhang Qiong's delicate body.
Hu Chenghe is going well over there, and has recruited more than 400 women who can do martial arts, Yang Xiaoyu will organize these women into the Jinyi Guard, called the Jinyi secret agent, and hand them over to Xu Xiaoxiao, Wang Xiaoya, Fang Rujing, Zhang Keer The four daughters are in charge, and the wrestlers of the Fusi Division of Beizhen are sent to practice.
In the process. Hu Chenghe was ordered by Yang Xiaoyu to send his subordinates to understand the background of each woman, and all the women whose background is unknown were eliminated from the Jinyi Guard, leaving only the woman with an innocent background.
Before the end of the year. has recruited 500 women who are innocent and know a little about martial arts, Yang Xiaoyu divided these women into four hundred households, each hundred households has 120 people, and Xu Xiaoxiao's four daughters are responsible for 100 households.
Because the four girls have hardly done this kind of errand, Yang Xiaoyu has spare time, so he teaches them how to be in charge of their subordinates, how to train their subordinates, how to buy people's hearts, and so on.
The four girls are talented and intelligent, and they don't need Yang Xiaoyu to say too much, they already understand the truth.
Yang Xiaoyu requisitioned a courtyard in Xicheng to house Jinyi spies, sent the assassination masters in the Jinyi Guards to teach them assassination methods, and at the same time, sent the guards to teach them how to protect their masters.
Of course, Yang Xiaoyu did not instill royal ideas in these women, he asked the four women to instill in his subordinates loyalty to Jinyiwei and Yang Commander.
At this point, Yang Xiaoyu borrowed the strategy of Grandpa Mao in his previous life, and every day before eating, let these women shout that they are loyal to Jinyiwei and loyal to Yang Commander.
This is a good way to let them put these words on their lips every day, and over time, they will worship Yang Xiaoyu as a god.
For this reason, Yang Xiaoyu asked Fang Weiyi to draw a picture for him and hang it in the middle of the Jinyi secret agent hall, allowing these women to bow three times a day to say goodbye.
The effect of this method is the most direct and effective, and in just a few days, some people regard Yang Xiaoyu as the object of allegiance.
In order not to get too angry with his subordinates, Yang Xiaoyu would bring good food and drink to treat these female spies every four or five days.
The reason why Yang Xiaoyu got hundreds of women with martial arts to join Jinyiwei was to use women to find out information and completely control it. Palace.
Now it seems that the effect is much better than he expected.
~~~~~~~~
The last day of the lunar month is also a big year once a year.
The emperor was frightened by the assassins, returned to the palace and had a serious illness, and could not go to the court, all the government was decided by Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe, and the military situation at the border was directly reported to the celebrant by the military department, and then sent to the palace by the celebrant and presented to the emperor.
The so-called emperor is Yang Xiaoyu himself, when he was in an emergency report from the Imperial Army, he accidentally saw the fold sent by Sun Chengzong in Liaodong, which had the meaning of asking for merit for Yang Yuhuai, Yang Xiaoyu just borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, promoted Yang Yuhuai to the deputy chief soldier of Liaoning, and gave Sun Chengzong a hundred taels of gold, so that he could rest assured that he would guard the border for the imperial court, build a defense line outside the pass, and wait for the opportunity to contact the threat of Jiannu to the pass.
Yang Xiaoyu issued a holy decree in the tone of the emperor, and wrote a letter in his own name to Yang Yuhuai, secretly asking Yang Yuhuai to hoard elite soldiers and prepare to fight with Jiannu Iron Cavalry.
After dealing with military affairs in various places, it was almost time for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
According to the regulations of the imperial court, the ministers went to the court for 30 to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor, and in the next three days, the ministers did not need to go to the court, and they went home to enjoy the joy of family.
After. The ladies in the palace will all come to the Qianqing Palace to wish the emperor a good night, and finally everyone will gather to prepare for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Both the emperor and the empress dowager were frightened, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was hosted by the empress.
Fortunately, Zhang Yan has the grace of the world. Few of the concubines in the palace dared to be disrespectful to Zhang Yan, so Zhang Yan was able to stabilize Yang Xiaoyu for her. Palace.
On the side of the palace, Yang Xiaoyu instructed the palace maids to bring good wine and food, so that the fake emperor and the two little eunuchs could eat and drink to their heart's content, of course, he did not forget the guest Yinyue and Fang Weiyi, and sent the palace maids to serve a table of good wine and food to the two of them.
As for Yang Xiaoyu, he went to Feng Guiren's courtyard, accompanied Feng Guiren to eat and drink, and finally enjoyed Feng Guiren's charm on the couch, so he hurriedly left the palace and went to Yang's mansion.
After leaving Hangzhou, he was the head of the family, and his wife Shen Mengxin was pregnant, but she was still working on family affairs, which made him feel more or less guilty.
As soon as Yang Xiaoyu returned to the mansion, the subordinates brought good wine and food, and Shen Mengxin, Liu Zihua, and Ling Lu gathered together to wait for Yang Xiaoyu to eat.
Yang Xiaoyu accompanied the three daughters to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, made a harmless joke for a while, and sent someone to send Ling Lu and Liu Zihua back to the house, while he accompanied Shen Mengxin to talk for a while and went to the bed to rest.
This night was no, he was extremely tormented, Shen Mengxin was more than two months pregnant, and he couldn't have sex, so he was depressed for a night.
This is now, in the past, he was not so strong, he could almost control his desires. Huo, since he had been sleeping with Li Xuanzhi for more and more time, he felt that he needed a woman almost every night, which even he was a little surprised.
In layman's terms, he has now become a woman without joy, and there is no woman to vent her desires. fire, he couldn't sleep.
Now, he somewhat understands why Tang Emperor Li Longji can't do without Yang Guifei?
Dare to love is that only Yang Guifei can vent his desire for him. Fire, although other concubines can also help him, but after all, they don't have Yang Guifei's secret skills, so serving them naturally makes him a little unhappy.
Yang Xiaoyu is like this now, he didn't feel anything before, since he occupied Li Xuanshi's body, he has slowly become obsessed with Li Xuanshi's body, and he didn't find out about it.
The long night crept by.
Early in the morning of the second day, Yang Xiaoyu had breakfast, pulled Liu Zihua to do primitive exercises for a while, dressed neatly, and went to Fang Congzhe's mansion to pay New Year's greetings to Fang Congzhe.
Fang Congzhe's two sons are all in other places, and there are no relatives around, only his grandson, who has no blood relatives.
Yang Xiaoyu wanted to go on the third day of the first lunar month, but his mother sent a letter from Hangzhou, asking him to go to Fang Congzhe on the first day of the new year, and asked him to bring supplements.
Fang Congzhe is highly respected, although he has no relatives to accompany him for the New Year, but some of his protégés and former officials understand the way, so in the early morning of the first day of the new year, carriages come and go in front of Fang's mansion.
When Yang Xiaoyu came, Fang Congzhe was entertaining several officials of the Qi Party, and he didn't want to have too deep a relationship with the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, so he came to the study and admired Fang Congzhe's calligraphy and paintings.
After waiting for a long time, Fang Congzhe sent his protégé away, and when he came to the study, he saw Yang Xiaoyu and said with a smile: "Your kid came to greet the old man in the morning, this is the first time." ”
"Knowing that my grandfather will be very busy today, my grandson is still cheeky to disturb!" Yang Xiaoyu got up and saluted Fang Congzhe, and said with a smile.
"Since you're here, I'll have a meal with the old man!" Fang Congzhe waved his hand and called the house slave and ordered the kitchen to prepare the meal.
When the dish did not come up, Yang Xiaoyu accompanied Fang Congzhe to play a game of chess, Fang Congzhe is known as the holy hand in chess, his chess is very powerful, Yang Xiaoyu did not take five steps to get started, and he was taken down. (To be continued......)
