Yang House.

Yang Guozhong's mansion is naturally one of the best in the huge capital, magnificent, luxurious, and of course, the most prominent is a status.

There are many customers in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but there are surprisingly many customers in Lord Yang's Mansion these days, so that the long street at the door has become a busy city, and the carriage stops from the street to the end.

There are so many people in these days, all because Prime Minister Yang is going to sell his official position again, and the big and small officials have been running to the Prime Minister's Mansion for three days these days, most of them are sending property, Prime Minister Yang openly sells his official beard, and the people are not surprised, but they can only scold him behind his back.

As of today, the first round of official sales has come to an end, and those who are now in the Yang Mansion are those court officials, who were summoned to the mansion by Yang Guozhong this morning, saying that they wanted to discuss this personnel change. Of course, they knew about Yang Guozhong's tricks, and most of them had heard about Yang Guozhong's actions some time ago.

But there is no way. At present, all the officials are sitting in the front hall, all silent, and when the officials get together, there are always many topics to talk about, such as which squire's family has married a beautiful concubine, of course, most of them are also work experience. But this is not the first time Yang Guozhong has done this, and calling them here is just a formality.

But if you have a scratch, you don't dare to send it, this Yang Guozhong has a bad character, and his surname is difficult to guess, if he offends him with a word, his career will be difficult to protect, then the right minister Chen Xilie didn't say a word, and he didn't put a fart, isn't it still for the governor to be dismissed?

Zhou Jingmao, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, sat on the chair, tasted a few sips of tea, and his expression did not change, all the officials had big officials from Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, and although the Ministry of Officials was responsible for personnel transfers, the transfer of high-ranking officials was to be tried by the three provinces, of course, it was still the emperor's words.

Today's list is just a small local official, and there are some miscellaneous errands in the central government, Yang Guozhong called everyone over, which made everyone confused, of course, these things are the duty of the officials, everyone saw Zhou Jingmao sitting there like no one else, he had no opinion, and everyone had no opinion.

The reason why Yang Guozhong was able to cover the sky with one hand in the court was, of course, the unconditional trust of the old emperor, but Yang Guozhong had done well in recent years, the old man Li San only cared about pleasure, and Yang Guozhong followed him in everything, only saying what he liked to hear with the emperor, so that the war in the border town was good news but not bad news.

A few years ago, after Yang Guozhong was promoted to Duzhilang, he took care of the treasury in an orderly manner, and always revealed to the old emperor intentionally or unintentionally: What we have is money, and you can spend it hard! The mediocre old man was out of control, building this palace and repairing that pool, and finally the Huaqing Pond was like the heavens.

The old emperor was happy to spend money, and naturally favored Yang Guozhong, if it was a natural disaster, the imperial court would naturally reduce taxes, but during Yang Guozhong's tenure as Du Zhilang, the treasury income was never less because of any natural disaster [***], and the money must have been collected in a different way behind the scenes, for example, if you have a drought this year, you can be exempted from paying taxes, but you must hand over the officials' servants, or you can pay it for the next year.

So such a powerful assistant to spend money, Li San Tuhao must be reused, this Yang Guozhong will be flattering again, and slowly come up, so that now he has more than 40 positions, and the word power is not enough to describe his awesomeness.

A trivial matter like selling an official, with Yang Guozhong's power, is really not worth mentioning, no one dares to sue him, or those who dare to sue him have already let this guy clean up, not to mention, even if this matter is stabbed in front of the emperor, it is one thing for the emperor to believe it or not, Yang Guozhong used a little means, and black and white were reversed.

In feudal society, you can't be reasonable, and the last word in everything is that you are the emperor, or you hold the emperor hostage, or the emperor favors you. The sky and the earth are big, and after all, the emperor is the greatest.

Yang Guozhong's development to this stage, he is already almost like a soil emperor, Li Longji is completely ill seventy-year-old man, after a few years, Yang Guozhong's next step is to hold the emperor hostage, and he has already looked for this emperor.

Throughout the ages, most of them are acting in this play, you are very awesome now, after all, because of this emperor, if you change the emperor, he is not very familiar with you, and there is a gap with you, then congratulations on your death, and Yang Guozhong is naturally this abacus, he is powerful because of Yang Yuhuan, if Li Longji gameover, the power of the Yang family will naturally plummet, and Prince Li Heng is too old to be attached, he should find a puppet of a little emperor to continue to dominate the world, so, for Li Heng, he is the same as Li Linfu, Take the means of blowing.

At this time, everyone was waiting in the hall, but Yang Guozhong was sitting in the study drinking tea, but the chief manager ran over to urge Cui, but Yang Guozhong didn't care, and continued to drink tea and wait.

"What's the hurry, let them wait first!"

"Everyone is here, you don't go now, it's clearly on the shelf!"

The chief steward bowed and said urgently.

I am very curious that this is a conversation between Yang Guozhong and his subordinates, and the manager is also a little bolder, and he speaks without measure, this tone is obviously babbling.

"Old watch, you said that you are seventy years old, why don't you have a sense of proportion! It's a shame that there is no one at the moment, the dignified prime minister was scolded by a housekeeper, you say he looks good? Yang Guozhong changed his usual face with a sinister face, and he didn't have a good airway.

At present, this old man is Yang Guozhong's distant uncle who begged for food with him in his early years, after Yang Guozhong gained power, he was also a chicken dog ascending to heaven, but this old man wanted to eat with him back then, and also saved his life.

Most people who have become rich and noble, like Yang Guozhong, who has experienced ups and downs, and it is a beautiful thing to have a person who has suffered together to share the blessings.

However, although this old man is crazy, Yang Guozhong never cares about him, kills people and sets fires outside, and sings and dances at home is roughly the kind of person he said.

"You Zhao'er, how can you ever be so arrogant!" The old man pretended to be a housekeeper at this time, and he became Yang Guozhong's father by pretending to be mixed, pretending to fight.

No matter how good Yang Guozhong's temper is, he can't stand it, he is the prime minister of a country, and one person is above ten thousand people, and he slaps the table and startles the old man.

Shaking his head and sighing, Yang Guozhong also has some affection for this old watch, otherwise he would not have left him in Yang Mansion for the elderly, those years of hard work, if there was no such person, he would definitely not be able to live.

"Old watch, don't get excited, those people outside are snobs, let them wait for a while. Do you know what the Emperor's Technique is? ”

The old man shook his head from the slap on the table.

"I belong to the prime minister's technique, I just let them see, whoever I want to be promoted, whoever I want to be promoted, whoever I want to be an official will be an honest official!" (To be continued.) )
