After all, he couldn't sleep long in the hot water, only slept for less than an hour, Yang Ling woke up, the gentle massage of the hot water made the physical recovery quickly, he wanted to gently scrub his body, but the slight sound of water still woke up the young lady, served the husband to wash his body, put on a soft robe, and the two went back to the bedroom together, the old mother was afraid of arguing with the master, and wanted to take the child out, but Yang Ling stopped her.

The child slept very soundly, the couple watched for a while and returned to the couch and lay down in their clothes, snuggled together and whispered, separated for so long, since Yang Ling came back, the two have not been able to complain to each other until now. But both of them were extremely sleepy, and after chatting for a while, the spirit of the young lady who had just bathed retreated, and the young lady pillowed on Yang Ling's chest, Yang Ling hugged the young lady's waist and fell asleep again.

The two of them were woken up by the child's loud voice, unless Lord Yang was full of food and drink, and did not pull or urinate, otherwise if he was a little uncomfortable, he would wake up and not see anyone around him, and he would always cry loudly for a while.

The two got up in a hurry, and the young lady first gave the child feces and urine with the help of the old mother who came when she heard the sound, changed clean clothes, and then fed the milk, and then let the old mother take her to another room to play with the child. Seeing that the sky was bright, the young lady was busy dressing up, and a pair of Yang Ling said: "Xianggong, do you want to go to court today?" ”

Yang Ling lazily lay on the couch and said: "No, take a good rest at home today, some subordinates and friends will also come to visit, and I will go to Jin to see the emperor again."

The young lady was very happy when she heard this, and said with a smile while combing her hair: "Then get up and have some breakfast first, and then sleep well in the inner study, and if there are guests coming, please come in directly."

Yang Ling stretched his waist, jumped up from the couch, and cheered up: "Okay, when I go home, my heart will be much more solid, let's go eat first."

In the flower hall of the Yang family, Sister Yu, Tang Yixian and others were already dressed up and sitting there waiting for him. It can be seen that Sister Yu and Xue Limei must have gotten up very early, and they have been carefully dressed up, and that kind of delicate and beautiful appearance is not common in the mansion.

Yang Ling greeted them happily, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be one less person, her eyes slipped around, and Sister Yu got up knowingly, and said: "Master, people have persuaded for a long time, but Sister Wenxin is ashamed to see you, and the concubine is thinking about whether to ask someone to bring her the food into the room."

Yang Ling has heard the young lady tell him about Wenxin's marriage, a young and beautiful girl who has a deep affection for you, knowing that you are dead, actually took the initiative to come to the door, willing to keep the festival for you for life, and was willing to live as a concubine, although Yang Ling did not approve of this behavior, but it was indescribably moved.

Yang Ling was busy when he returned home, and he didn't care about talking to her in detail, now Gao Wenxin's identity is extremely embarrassing, he said that he had come to the door, and he didn't visit the church, saying that he hadn't passed the door, and the sedan chair was carried to the door of Yang's house again, and now it was not suitable to go back to himself, and he was embarrassed to stay, which was really embarrassing.

Yang Ling thought for a moment, got up and said with a smile: "Don't you just want me to say a word in person?" You women, this heart-to-heart, hehe, go, accompany me to pick up Miss Gao, from now on, Wenxin is also a member of our Yang family, and the people of the Yang family must be harmonious, and no one can be bullied. ”

Xue Limei sat next to her coincidentally, and said with a smile: "Sister Wenxin has long been the master's person, it should be said that from now on, it can be regarded as a positive result."

Yang Ling didn't know what she meant otherwise, so he smiled and pinched her pink cheeks, and said, "Just your mouth, it's good, when the master is busy with business, you and the young lady will bear the family law together."

When he said this, Han Youniang and Xue Limei's faces turned red all of a sudden, Tang Yixian now knew what was going on with the Yang family's family law, rolled up his sleeves, and chirped: "Okay, let Sister Yu and Sister Wenxin also go, let's get off the horse first, one person will be slapped forty times, if the eldest brother is numb, the sister will help you get a rolling pin."

Xue Limei turned around and went to tickle her, the two of them giggled and played, Yang Ling gave Sister Yu a look, and walked out of the flower hall with her.

As soon as he saw him leave, Tang Yixian immediately jumped to Han Youniang's side and said excitedly: "Sister Young Niang, what are you thinking, is our idea good, he pretended to be dead to scare us, it's harmless to fix him."

Han Youniang said embarrassedly: "It's better not to, if the identity of the Xianggong annoys him, or is listened to by others, it's not good."

"How can it be, the eldest brother has a good temper, and he has no official standing, the emperor is still messing around all day long, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, it is regarded as a big opera, I really want to see him wearing a red hijab", Tang Yixian smiled and said.

Xue Limei also pulled Han Youniang's sleeve and begged: "Sister, you just agreed, no one in our house is afraid of the master, but if you don't nod, no one will dare to mess around, how fun this is, hehe, the big man has a phoenix crown, it is rare to see it in a thousand years, what he has said, he can't complain about others."

The two of them pulled Han Youniang's sleeves left and right, and said softly and greasyly: "Good sister, please, just nod."

Such two little stunners pretended to be enchanting, even women couldn't stand it, Han Youniang's goosebumps rose, and she hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you two little goblins, but don't go overboard."

As soon as Tang Yixian and the others saw that she agreed, they were immediately excited, Xue Limei sat there pinching her chin, Tang's face was even more eyebrows fluttering, and her face was smiling, and Han Youniang secretly regretted it.

Yang Ling strode ahead, walked out of the flower hall and walked to the porch and suddenly stopped, looked at the many new houses and pavilions in his backyard, and asked with his hands on his waist: "Eh, where does Wenxin live?" ”

Sister Yu followed suit, and she was always half a step away from him, and when she heard the words, she came over and said, "The concubine brought the master over."

Yang Ling noticed her restraint and etiquette, as if it had increased a little as she had been away from Beijing for a few months. He glared at Yutangchun, grabbed her slender waist, rubbed his palm, felt the softness and warmth, and said with a smile: "Xianggong has been away from Beijing for a few months, your little waist is much softer, and my jade is charming and more feminine."

Sister Yu'er blushed suddenly, and shouted crampedly: "Ah, my lord, let go, this is outside, let the next people see."

Yang Ling smiled, let go of her hand, gestured down, and pinched her round and warped pink buttocks, compared with before, although the buttocks are still not big, but the buttocks are thicker and firmer, just over sixteen, but she is already a wife, coupled with a good life, now Sister Yu'er's figure and style are indeed becoming more and more mature.

"You", Yang Ling ignored Sister Yu'er's struggles, took her little hand, and said as she walked: "Don't get scruples when you get older, the young lady is not very old, I am really happy to have you with me, it is like living in the sky."

There are not so many rules in our family, no matter how big an official I am, remember that I am your husband, what kind of husband, husband, master, that can't help but show outsiders, behind closed doors I am your husband, you are my wife, husband and wife still talk about so many abusive rules, how boring is life?

The young lady's surname is more subtle and introverted, not to mention Wenxin, if you feel that you should be cautious again, always keep the duty of a concubine, and the Xue'er brought in the morning and evening will also become the same, our backyard is like a warm pot of water, is it interesting? ”

"Yes, master", Yu Tangchun was moved in his heart, and involuntarily clenched Yang Ling's big hand. She is indeed a little too careful, there used to be a young lady who was used to her, and there was a more lively Xue Limei with her, she was also like a happy lark, unrestrained, unwitting.

But now Gao Wenxin is about to enter the door, she was originally a beautiful lady, and she was a dignified female medical officer, and the Yang family still relied on her clever hands to administer needles, even the young lady was grateful to her, she was treated as a flat wife, and Yutangchun did not have the slightest complaint.

But what she is worried about is that once such a lady enters the door, because of the different cultivation and education since childhood, she will no longer indulge them in being presumptuous, and the henchmen of the Yang Mansion are all Miss Gao's people, so why don't you call them out? That's why she restored the duty that a concubine from a big family should have, and she didn't dare to act beyond etiquette and presumptuous behavior in front of Yang Ling.

After listening to Yang Ling's words, her heart was warm, and tears couldn't help but fill her eyes: "My father-in-law, I can't find such a man in the world, he not only loves my appearance, but really treats me, a lowly and lowly little woman from a Qinglou, as his own wife, what do you want to find such a husband in this life?" His deep affection and righteousness, even if my Yutang Chun is broken, it will be difficult to repay it."

Yang Ling couldn't help but sigh lightly when he saw her expression, took her hand, and said as he walked: "Yu'er, are you unwilling to enter the door after Wenxin, but you can be on an equal footing with the young lady, so you have a grudge."

Sister Yu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Master, no, no, I'm just worried that Sister Wenxin is very strict and doesn't dare to be too presumptuous."

Yang Ling thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "I really didn't know that there was such a thing as a flat wife, I knew what kind of wives and concubines I would share, so let's be even, you and Xue'er should also be equal wives, hehe, let's sit in a row, eat fruits, no one fights, no one robs." Hey, in fact, our family didn't distinguish who was high and who was low, alas! ”

Yutangchun was overjoyed at first, then his expression darkened, and he said faintly: "Master can't be like this, how dare Yu'er be pampered and arrogant?" Since ancient times, 'one wife, two equal wives and four partial concubines', this is three wives and four concubines. Now the number of concubines is no longer restricted, but the number of equal wives is still limited, although the lord is a very human minister, at most he can only have one wife and two equal wives. Sister Wenxin and Mrs. Wen have equal wives, no one will be too careful, if the concubine is also promoted to a flat wife, it will add to the chaos."

Yang Ling was curious, it turned out that the three wives and four concubines had such a origin. He simply stopped and asked, it turned out that the rich had more than one wife and multiple concubines, and having two wives was generally punished, but after the development of the emerging aristocratic class, they often engaged in marriages out of political needs, or Shangguan gave marriage in order to envelop powerful subordinates, whether it was marriage or marriage, this woman was naturally her own relatives, and she could not be treated as a concubine, and most of the objects of their marriage or entrapment were also successful, not hairy boys who had not yet married their wives, so a new rule gradually emerged: equal wife.

But civilians cannot, even if you are rich enough to rival the country, and you have the money to pay 10,000 concubines and concubines, you can only have one wife, which is called 'husband and wife'. Of course, there is still a difference among the equal wives, the wife is the main wife, the wife, the social status and the husband is equal, whether it is at home or outside, the service system, the car system and other etiquette enjoy the same treatment, the flat wife is slightly inferior, but there is no need to concubine the wife, the family status is basically the same.

Sister Yu said seriously, Yang Ling was dizzy when she heard it, there is still a limit for daring to love this thing, Wen Xin has entered the door, and there is only one flat wife index left, let Yutangchun, Xue Limei, and Ma Li'er have a fair, just, and open competition, and be a judge themselves? By the way, there is also an unmarried wife, Adney, who is also a baron and a foreign friend, so she has a great advantage in the competition.

That's it! Yang Ling obediently dispelled this stupid thought, and said with a dry smile: "In this way, unless you split me in half, the flat wife will be enough, hehe, don't care about this, Wen Xin is not a rigid lady, I am afraid that you will also bring her crazy."

Yutang Chunmei glanced at it, and couldn't help but wonder: "People haven't thought about it, it's the master's idea, forget it, don't say it, the master doesn't know how happy they are when they hear these words." Oh, Sister Wenxin's room has arrived, the master should go in by himself, and it is convenient to say something that is already in the body, hehe. ”

Gao Wenyi's new house, originally next door to Yang Ling and the young lady's courtyard, this is the first of a row of new buildings opened up to the backyard, the new building, the new house, the newcomer and the newcomer are naturally a little embarrassed when they see the groom, although it is a dark marriage, but under the arrangement of the escaped Luo ** master, this room is covered with red flowers, dragon and phoenix red candles, and the layout is exactly the same as the ordinary newcomer's cave room, but yesterday it was miserable outside, but the room was jubilant, and it was a little weird.

After Yang Ling came back alive, Gao Wenxin was busy in the middle of the night and removed all the newlywed decorations in the room, but some traces could still be seen. Yang Ling was very free and easy outside, and as soon as he entered the house, he looked at Gao Wenxin, who was already his daughter-in-law, and he didn't know what to say. The two stood facing each other, secretly watching each other's small movements, pondering each other's thoughts, and neither of them knew how to speak.

How can a family rule the world? I'm a dignified general, a big marquis, a big spy leader, a character who stomps his feet and trembles in all directions, and I'm afraid of her as a little woman? Thinking of this, Yang Ling took a long breath, raised his eyebrows, and said proudly: "Wenxin!" ”

"Huh?" Gao Wen's heart and body trembled, he hurriedly raised his head, and hurriedly lowered his eyes, trembling but infinitely looking forward to it.

Yang Ling waved his hand resolutely and said, "Let's go, it's time for breakfast."

Gao Wen's pretty face fell, and he squeaked after a while: "I'll still eat in the room." Well, I'll move back in the afternoon."

Yang Ling thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay to move back first."

Gao Wenxin's face turned pale when he heard this, Huo Di raised his head, but he was meeting Yang Ling's cunning eyes: "Let's move back first, is it really a 'dark marriage' to marry into the door?" ”

Yang Ling held her fragrant shoulder and said softly: "This catastrophe is not dead, my heart disease is gone, and I cherish my life and my people even more." Wenxin, I have just returned to Beijing, there are always some important things to be done in the DPRK and China, you don't have to worry, after three days, I will marry you again, and let you marry back to your home in a dignified manner."

Gao Wen's heart is looking forward to coming and going, and what he is looking forward to is just this sentence, listening to Yang Ling say it himself, Gao Wen's heart is full of flowers, competing to open, and he is dizzy for a long time, and then he snorts with a blushing face, and says thinly: "Who is in a hurry?" ”

Yang Ling salivated and smiled: "It's your father-in-law, I'm in a hurry, okay?" Huh".

Gao Wenxin heard that he had opened his mouth to claim to be a father-in-law, and her heart was infinitely sweet, but at the same time she was embarrassed and embarrassed, she pulled the corners of her clothes and rolled them on her slender and slender fingers, and then pulled them away, and she was at a loss for a long time, before she raised her head and glanced at Yang Ling quickly, and said shyly: "Let's go."

Yang Ling was fascinated by her shy and timid girlish style, and couldn't help but be stunned when she heard it: "Why are you going?" ”

"When I went to eat, people suddenly felt a little hungry."

On this day, there were really a lot of people who came to visit, and the generals of the four foreign armies, Xu Tai, Liu Hui, He Santan, Feng Luo, and Peng Jizu, Lian Delu and others came to visit together.

These people are all rugged generals, surnamed straightforward, as soon as they saw Yang Ling, Peng Jizu and Lian Delu, a fat and a thin two guys, hugged Yang Ling and cried loudly, the voice was earth-shattering, listening to the inside and outside of the Yang Mansion, a cry.

Fortunately, two days ago, they came to cry, and the Yang Mansion had already seen their ability to cry, and the maids and maids turned a blind eye and calmly. These people haven't gone out of the gate yet, Wu Jie led the cronies and subordinates of the inner factory to visit again, the backbone of these people came back, it was really indescribably happy, the stall heads, thousands of households, and hundreds of households sat in the living room in the front yard and talked and laughed, and the laughter came straight out of the gate.

In the afternoon, Dai Yi, Miao Kui, Zhang Yong and others came one after another, these people listened to Yang Ling's words very much, pretended to be deaf and dumb in front of Liu Jin, and accepted it, and waited for the leader of his own faction to return to Beijing and compete with Liu Jin again, Yang Ling's death spread, although the saddest thing was not them, but they were the most nervous and disappointed.

Now that they have seen Yang Ling, the three of them are like complaining, constantly telling these Liu Jin's wretched anger, and when it comes to anger, they can't help but scold, and the fans who patrol around the Yang Mansion feel strange, why does Yang Mansion cry and laugh for a while, and open his mouth to scold people today?

But the strange thing is that no one from the hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China came to visit for a whole day, which is a bit unusual, even if it is inconvenient for others to come to the door publicly, Jiao Fang is clearly branded by the Yang faction, there is no reason to have any scruples, Yang Ling immediately sent someone to Beijing to inquire about the news, and the message sent back was: The court meeting has not dispersed!

Yang Ling was taken aback when he heard this, what happened to the court? Emperor Zhengde has never opened the noon dynasty, and now don't say that the early dynasty, the noon dynasty time has long passed, what did the civil and military officials stay in the palace for a whole day?

At this time, the court meeting was still in an impassioned debate, the civil and military officials just drank a bowl of gruel at noon, the rice in the palace was not so easy to eat, the emperor rewarded most of the time is a face, thirty taels of silver and two silks, the courtesy is light and heavy, what you want is that meaning, the imperial dining room heard that the emperor wants to give food, of course, it will not be affordable to seven plates and eight bowls of really for you to the top.

However, the hundred officials were still arguing, and early in the morning, Zhengde happily came to the court, and there were people from the Hanlin Academy and the Metropolitan Procuratorate who submitted a petition asking for the revocation of Yang Ling's sealing and reward, and many old and serious officials felt that Yang Ling was young, even if he really made great contributions, the dignified hereditary marquis was enough to praise his great merits, so he immediately stood up in support. Liu Jin and his faction have already received his instructions, and immediately went out to oppose it, Zhengde also felt that what he said was the water that was spilled, how could there be any reason to take it back, and besides, Yang Ling's credit was in his heart, which was enough to be worthy of the title of Guogong.

Liu Jin's party was so enthusiastic about Yang Ling, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the three major scholars, and after only a little thought, they guessed that this was an empty plan, Mingsheng secretly lowered Yang Ling's power, and now the only one in the court who can compete with Liu Jin is just that, no matter what the purpose, they now need Yang Ling to be in power to prevent Liu Jin's family from becoming dominant, so the three of them immediately went out of the class, and all of them agreed to cancel the seal on Yang Ling and remove the title of Guogong.

But at this time, Liu Jin controlled the officials, held the power of the promotion and promotion of hundreds of officials, and there were many officials who went with the tide and waded into troubled waters, and the main force of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was also in his hands, which was the mouthpiece.

Their strength has actually accounted for the absolute majority of the court, and Emperor Zhengde also feels that it is unreasonable to strip Yang Ling Guogong of the reward, and the three bachelors and the Qing faction that has awakened to it are unable to speak directly to the emperor, and it is difficult to withstand the attack of the chief referee under the black whistle.

They can't say directly to the emperor: Your most trusted right-hand man has long been fighting openly and secretly, Liu Jin is a big villain, he wants to seize Yang Ling's power and dominate the dynasty. It was thanks to the opposition of the three major scholars that they could barely resist the flattery of Liu Jin's party to the emperor and Yang Ling.

The controversy lasted until the afternoon without a result, and the little joy that Zhengde was happy to come to the court had already been lost by these ministers, so he angrily announced the dissolution of the dynasty, and said that he would discuss it again.

As soon as the court meeting dispersed, the three bachelors got together and discussed a few words briefly, and then entrusted Jiao Fang, who was closest to Yang Ling, to quickly find him to state his interests, and asked him to go to the court immediately in the morning and take the initiative to resign from all his sealing positions.

Yang Ling didn't know what happened in the mansion, and no one could find out the specific news in the Jinluan Palace, he was restless, and finally called someone to lead the horse, and was about to go to the city to inquire about the news in person, Jiao Fang's official sedan chair arrived in a hurry.

Yang Ling listened to Jiao Fang's words, only to know that such a big move in Beijing today was actually for his own prestige, Yang Ling was not interested in being the prince of the country, if he didn't want to make a career in this era and use his own efforts to avoid many tragedies in later generations, even this authoritative inner factory prince He was unwilling to take office, so he just smiled faintly and agreed to take the initiative to resign from the country.

Jiao Fang breathed a sigh of relief, if Yang Ling took the initiative to resign, he would be able to agree to the emperor. The little emperor is young in the end, and he can't see through the tricks and tricks in the officialdom. And the people of Liu Jin's faction only mentioned that Yang Ling's merits should be sealed, and did not mention his current position and power at all, these things, as long as Yang Ling entered the palace and officially set the title of Duke of Weiguo, they were not afraid that he would not hand them over.

Jiao Fang and Yang Ling secretly discussed in the study to say Xiang Xishan, and then they said goodbye and left, preparing to gather the people of Yang Ling's faction to build a collective momentum in the morning and help Yang Ling resign this Wei Guogong who was tied to his hands and feet.

Farewell to Jiao Fang, Yang Ling returned to the study and thought about the whole thing carefully, Liu Jin is a rare good move to do this, in front of the emperor and the world, he created a set of selflessness, and Yang Ling is intimate with the illusion, to win the emperor's favor, and at the same time force himself to hand over the power in his hands step by step, with Liu Jin's current power, as long as the power is handed over, how can it not fall into his hands?

What Liu Jin can bite to death if he doesn't abide by it is that the emperor's will cannot be easily withdrawn, Yang Ling's merits are enough to crown the prince of the country, and it is inconvenient for him to directly point out to the emperor that they want to withdraw their own rights, and they want to make themselves suffer a dumb loss.

However, if this conspiracy can't be recognized, it's just that it's called a conspiracy, but it can't be pointed out, and once someone understands your intentions, it will be difficult to achieve the desired effect. The old ministers in the court have been mixed with officialdom all their lives, how can a few inexperienced eunuchs in the harem be able to deal with it? Now that this ploy has been discovered, as long as he comes up with a high-sounding reason to resolutely resign, what tricks can he play?

Liu Jin is powerful, he is powerful in being able to figure out the emperor's thoughts, and he is powerful in his close relationship with the emperor, but it is not how powerful he is in the officialdom, otherwise, with his power and connections, he does not have irreconcilable interests with conservatives like he is engaged in various reforms, and the development of his power is not only the current situation? But his subordinates Zhang Cai and Zhang Wenmian and others are not vegetarians, and they must have expected that I will definitely resign, what other killer can they have?

A smile appeared on Yang Ling's lips: There is a big conspirator next to me, but unfortunately, she is not here. Otherwise, she has a good chance of seeing the conspiracy that Liu Jin and others want to use, and I can hold the wisdom bead in my hand, and I expect the enemy to go first, and now I have to take one step at a time, anyway, this battle will not be finished in two hits, I want to cut Liu Jin's power, Liu Jin also wants to cut my power, this is long.

At this time, Yang Ling saw that the sunlight was fading, and was about to call someone to come to the lamp, Yun'er ran in with his small hand [***], still holding a pair of scissors in his hand, and saluted Yang Ling: "Master, the executive's family asked me to inform the master, someone from the front house came to visit, saying that the surname is Yang Mingshen, can the master see it?" ”

"Yang Shen? See! See you! Invite him to arrive No, no, I'll pick him up in person", Yang Ling was overjoyed, hurriedly stood up and walked out, he walked to the door and glanced at Yun'er, and suddenly asked, "Are you washing clothes?" ”

"Yes, sir".

"Huh? So what do you do with your scissors? ”

"Oh", Yun'er smiled dryly: "The clothes are torn, I'll cut the cloth head and mend it."

Yang Ling's eyes widened, and he said curiously: "Patching while washing clothes?" Uh, okay, you're going to get busy."

"Yes, sir!" Yun'er ran away in a puff of smoke.

Yang Ling didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly rushed to the front hall, and when he saw that the elegant scholar in the green robe was Yang Shen, Yang Ling laughed and said: "Yang Shen, it's really you, haha, I didn't expect you to come so quickly, I just arrived in Beijing before I had time to recommend it to the emperor, and you arrived."

Yang Shen smiled and said: "Hehe, Xiao Ke left more than ten days earlier than the adult, but he only arrived in Beijing yesterday, and he heard that the adult was killed just after he arrived, and he was shocked that Xiao Ke's seven souls lost six souls, and he was too empty from his fugue, so he heard that the adult rode back to Beijing, fortunately, it was a false alarm."

"The adults have just returned to Beijing, and everything is complicated, Xiao Ke originally thought about coming back to disturb him after two days, but today he heard a news, but he had to visit in advance."

"Oh?" Yang Ling's eyes flashed, and he said thoughtfully: "Let's go, let's go to the inner study and talk slowly."

As soon as he entered the study, Yang Ling smiled and said solemnly: "Brother Shen, but you are here to discuss the removal of my Weiguo Gong today?" ”

"Hehe, adults are like gods, and Xiao Ke is here for this."

Yang Ling laughed and said, "Please sit", he himself sat behind the table, ordered someone to serve tea, covered the door, and then asked, "Why did my brother teach me?" ”

Yang Shen smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if the grandfather of this country should or not, it doesn't matter if it is not important, it really matters, it should be the one who wants to push the adult up, and the one who pulls the adult down, what is the idea, the adult said yes?" ”

Yang Ling smiled slightly: "Haha, I'll get straight to the point, you just treat each other with sincerity, what you want to say is just a Liu Jin, right?" ”

Yang Shen stood up solemnly and said deeply: "Exactly!" Xiao Ke can ask the adult, how is Eunuch Liu? ”

Tsk, in this tone, Yang Ling almost got up and replied solemnly: "Dong Zhuo, his name is Han Xiang, but he is actually a thief."

Yang Ling thought for a while and said slowly: "If you say that he is a eunuch, he can be called; If it is said that he is a minister, he is also called; The harm is not only in the palace. ”

Yang Shen looked at him directly and asked, "Can my lord get rid of thieves for the country now?" ”

"Can't!"

"Looking at the government and the opposition, the only one who can compete with Liu Jin is the adult, and Xiao Ke also knows that the adult and Liu Jin are on the same page, I don't know when the adult can kill Liu Jin with one blow?"

"I can weaken his power and dampen his arrogance. It is difficult to get rid of this scourge completely! Unless Liu Jin loses his holy grace, no one can get rid of him. But if he has really fallen out of favor, there is no harm left, so why get rid of him? ”

"Adults and Liu Jin are afraid of each other, even if there is a fight, there are winners and losers of each other, and the power is not growing for a while, as long as they are still hidden under the emperor's wings, the battle will continue, it is not uncommon to fight for decades, and it is difficult to predict who will win and who will lose in the end.

At this moment, the prestige and status of the lord are like Zhongtian, and he is the emperor's most favored minister, but he can't completely bring down Liu Jin, because there is a holy family. And as long as there are adults, it is to remind Liu Jin at all times that he must not fly high and lose his holy family. The emperor's favor is Liu Jin's gold medal for avoiding death, Liu Jin always stays by the emperor's side, and no one can destroy this holy family except himself. ”

Yang Ling's eyes deepened, and he stared: "What are your plans?" ”

Yang Shenshi Shiran stood up, sat back at the table and took a sip of tea: "Today, I heard my father talk about the court's proposal to deprive the lord of the kingdom, and Liu Jin tried to protect it, and Shen Jue felt that this was a good opportunity, so he hurried here." My lord, Liu Jin's conspiracy trap, Xiao Ke thinks that adults might as well step on it, so that he can get a temporary benefit in exchange for the long-term benefit of the imperial court."

"Oh? You talk about it carefully", although the first ghost talent in Bashu is still young and has no experience as an official, he has read all the books in the world and has extraordinary knowledge, and Yang Ling is also interested.

Yang Shen said eloquently: "Liu Jin wants to seize the power of adults with conspiracy, it's difficult!" You are not alone, you are in a position of power, and you must be surrounded by many like-minded people. Similarly, if adults want to get rid of the scourge of Liu Jin, it is difficult. Because he is involved, there are also layered relationships, and even the emperor.

In the government, it is very difficult to defeat the other side by intrigue and trickery, because in the government, the factions of dissidents are very obvious, and your actions represent your position, every move you take, and your interests are represented, and the enemy can judge your intentions from this.

Just like today, the Lord is not in the court, and Liu Jin's conspiracy is still seen through and deduced his purpose according to his interests, so he tried his best to stop it. When Ming said that the lord resolutely resigned, his conspiracy failed, and the game was drawn, Liu Jin was not injured, and the adult was not damaged.

The plot will succeed unless the opponent can't see through it, or by the time he realizes it's too late. But the lord and Liu Jin are not ordinary eunuchs, you are all the emperor's most trusted people, if you want to bring down the opponent, no matter how much scheming you use, you still have to try to show up in the end, and at this time, as long as the other party turns to the emperor, you can save the decline, at least you can save your strength, and then wait for the opportunity to make a comeback. I said that the Korean struggle may even last for several decades, and this is the truth, sometimes the other is strong, sometimes the other is weak, and it is difficult to distinguish between them. ”

Yang Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded, "Go on."

Yang Shen said: "The only thing that really determines the outcome is strength." The Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, and even the heroes of ancient and modern times, which one did not rely on his own strong strength to force the opponent to bow his head and act according to his own rules? With the strength of adults and Liu Jin, how can they be strong enough to defeat each other completely? That is the Sacred Heart, the Sacred Heart and the Lost Sacred Heart, this is the greatest strength. ”

Yang Ling smiled and borrowed a sentence from Lu Xun: "Yes, there is no one who makes a big deal with a conspiracy in ancient times." All conspiracies and conspiracies will be vulnerable in the face of absolute strength. Conspiracy can only assist strength, but it cannot replace strength.

Liu Jin and I have indeed reached the pinnacle of power as human ministers, and we both have the trust of the saints. To put it bluntly, our strength, the strength we want to use to defeat the other party, all comes from the supreme emperor, so how can we make the other party lose their sacred heart? ”

Yang Shen smiled and said: "Yesterday, if it weren't for the resurrection of the adults, this morning, Liu Jin would have done the first thing to start losing his holy heart, and put all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in prison, which is an unprecedented miracle." The adult brushed his face, but he also got rid of it for him, Liu Jin can be said to have lost the east wall and gained Sangyu.

With the appearance of the adult, Liu Jin has scruples, and he will inevitably restrain himself, and it will be difficult to catch the evidence of his loss of sacred heart. If the adult calmly accepts the position of the prince of the country and removes his scruples, Liu Jin will inevitably relapse into his old ways, perverse, lack of morality, lose his righteousness, and turn over the clouds and rain, can he really hide from the eyes and ears of the world?

Liu Jin is a high-flying person, now there are adults, he also knows that he buys people's hearts, if adults don't become threats, those people will become complete slaves, are they willing? Now that there are adults, those people need Liu Jin to take the lead in the confrontation, at that time, Liu Jin was in charge alone, and they were not red-eyed? The inner court is killing!

Yesterday, he thought that the adult was dead, and Liu Jin regarded the hundred officials as dogs, and acted more fearlessly than the emperor, what would it look like at that time? The outer court is killing!

Liu Jin's governance is biased, and there are many anachronistic methods, which lead to the boiling of public resentment, and the power is alone, so all the resentment in the world is concentrated in one, and the world is killed! ”

Yang Shen smiled slightly, and said calmly: "The people gathered around Liu Jin are all capricious and mercenary, but their vision is ten times more shrewd than Liu Jin.

The inner court, the outer court, the world, and the surroundings are full of murderous opportunities, and unfavorable words will continue to reach the ears of the emperor. At this time, too, the adults raised their arms and shouted, and the world was watching; The emperor shot the dragon case, and the head fell to the ground. The big picture is now decided! ”

Yang Ling gasped when he heard this: "This kid, what a good child he looks at, he is much more yin than his father, and he is too good at taking advantage of people's hearts."

He didn't know that if he hadn't recruited this Yang Shen to his side, more than ten years later, Yang Shen would have shouted the loudest slogan in the history of the Ming Dynasty by the Jinshui Bridge: "The country has been raising soldiers for one hundred and fifty years, and the righteousness of the war is being said today!" ”

Just this sentence stimulated the blood surname of the scholar, and more than 200 Beijing officials followed him to the gate of the palace to find the emperor to make trouble, and it was Yang Shen's director who used people's hearts to take advantage of people's hearts, and this seemingly harmless kid was really a dangerous person.

Yang Ling lowered his head and muttered: "Yang Shen is building momentum, power is like fire, Liu Jin is not a person who can grasp power well, give him greater strength, is to let him self-destruct his strength." It's just that if you want to take it, you must first plan with it, but it also cuts off your own retreat, if Liu Jin is willing to listen to the dissuasion of the staff around him and can't play with fire [***], am I not self-defeating? ”

Yang Shen saw his intentions and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether the adult is a national prince or a factory governor, the important thing is not to lose strength, this strength is composed of power, fame, power, and trust." If the adults take the public and abandon the power, the name will be trusted. As for power, how can adults be compared to the current grandfathers?

At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the princes and princes were old and their subordinates were all over the world. Otherwise, Emperor Taizu would not cough up, the hereditary position of the future will inherit the title from birth, and the officials in the world will do their best to take the imperial examination, and they have nothing to do with it, of course, this right cannot be discussed, but the adults are not, regardless Chinese of the local government and the military, how many subordinates are there? How much does the emperor rely on adults? Who can replace him? ”

Yang Ling's heart flashed: "I originally left for my own two-year period, and now I can use it." Yang Shen, a hairy boy, this is a good risk, but I can't even have the strength to turn the tables, immediately separate all kinds of forces under the name of the inner factory, and then act according to the plan, maybe it is really the way to completely eradicate Liu Jin. As for being in power alone? Hehe, I would rather have a beautiful wife and concubine, glory and wealth, as long as the government is stable, do I want to continue to travel around the world with the nickname of Yang beheaded? ”

Yang Ling thought of this, and said with a smile: "Okay, then do it, tomorrow morning, the official will go to the court, as Liu Jin wishes, I have to snatch this prince from the hands of the hundred officials, go to the field, and it will not be a matter of getting used to it."

"Shimono?"

"Well, Shimono, I'm used to it, hahahaha"

Princess Yongfu was accompanying Princess Ning Qing in the Ten Princes' Mansion to feed more than ten cages of birds hanging under the corridor, Princess Yongchun jumped over, saw Yongfu and said with a smile: "Sister, I just heard about a big thing about you from the queen mother, do you want to listen?" ”

Princess Yongfu said curiously: "What is the big thing, let's hear about it."

"Yes, yes, but you have to give me those crests as a thank you."

"Hey, threaten me, my sister won't listen to me." Princess Yongfu wrinkled her nose and deliberately said angrily to her.

"Hello, so stingy? Okay, okay, let me tell you, the queen mother has found two uncles today, and they are going to prepare to recruit horses for you", Princess Yongyou held her hands behind her back and said with a lovely smile.

"Huh? Recruiting horses? Princess Yongfu was at a loss.

The palace maids and eunuchs next to them hurriedly gathered around and said congratulations: "Congratulations to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, congratulations to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."

Princess Yongchun blasted them away like a chicken: "Go and go, where is it cool and stay there, the Queen Mother just had this plan, and there is no one in the eight characters, what a joy to say."

Princess Ning Qing sighed faintly and said, "It's really fast, I just realized that Yongfu has really grown into a big girl, alas! ”

Princess Yongchun smiled: "Then what's the sigh, doesn't the imperial aunt like our sisters to accompany you the most?" When my sister recruits a horse, she will move into the Ten Kings' Mansion and live with her aunt every day."

Princess Ning Qing smiled bitterly: "My aunt just likes you, so I don't want you to either, I don't know that the Queen Mother has a suitable candidate, I hope to find a powerful family for Yongfu, so as to save some female officials and eunuchs from pickling, as soon as I enter the Ten Princes' Mansion, I will be like a Weaver Girl and other cowherds, and like a bird in this cage."

When she said this, she suddenly thought of the really powerful family, who would want to get married to the royal family and let his own son be this widower-like colt? Yongfu is such a handsome and gentle child, his fate will be the same as his own, confined in this deep palace compound, and he can't help but sigh sadly.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and suddenly realized that she shouldn't say these words in front of Yongfu, and hurriedly changed to a smile and said: "When you grow up Chengren, you are going to marry a husband and recruit a son-in-law, hehe, with the queen mother in charge, Yongfu must be able to find a wishful husband, a husband and a wife, and love is incomparable." When I have a child in the future haha, you see, as soon as the imperial aunt is happy, she will pull away."

Princess Yongchun smiled when she heard this, and said with her eyes shining: "Giving birth to a baby? My sister's? Hehe, hehehe, it's so fun, hahaha".

Princess Yongfu ignored her smirk, she noticed the melancholy on Aunt Ning Qing's face, and then she noticed that her aunt was only thirty-five years old, only four years older than her mother, but her mother was young like her own sister, and her aunt had a few strands of hair on her sideburns, and inadvertently, she had turned gray, and her face was shallow and wrinkled.

She never thought that one day she would marry her own life, in her princess's mansion, unrestrained, leisurely, and now when the matter came, her heart was empty and panicked: "The queen mother wants to recruit a horse for me?" What will he look like? Is it tall or short? Is it fat or thin? How is the person, what is the spleen surname? I'm going to move into the Ten Kings' Mansion, live with these old princesses, and take care of some birds and cats every day? ”

Princess Yongfu was confused, and she didn't know what Princess Ningqing said to her again, and when she came to her senses, she noticed that Princess Yongchun was holding her hand and was in the imperial garden, Yongchun told her very seriously: "Sister, you must recruit a handsome colt and give birth to a handsome baby for me to play, I am so bored and bored all day long."

Princess Yongfu's face was slightly red, and she slapped her in disgust, and scolded coquettishly: "I came to talk nonsense again, let the queen mother hear it, and I have to discipline you."

"Whoa! It's the royal brother, and the royal brother has also come to visit the imperial garden today, it's rare, royal brother! Brother Huang, we are here", Princess Yongchun called on tiptoe.

Zhengde poked his head out from behind a rockery, saw them, and said with a smile: "Aha, so you are here!" ”

He flashed out, followed by Ma Yongcheng, and walked over and said, "I was about to look for you, and there is nothing to see at this time, why did you come to the Imperial Garden?" Xiuning, the queen mother is looking for me today, saying that it is time for Zhang Luo to recruit a colt for you. Well, I'll see, tsk, I've grown into a big girl, it's time to recruit a horse, I'm really careless."

Princess Yongchun hurriedly said: "Brother Huang, you ordered the minister to find a handsome horse for the imperial sister and give birth to a handsome baby."

Before she finished speaking, her mouth was covered by Yongfu, and those apricot eyes glared at her fiercely.

Zhengde laughed and said: "This first article is easy to do, but this second article can't be decreed." Well, my royal sister, if you don't make a will, you will give birth to a good-looking baby."

Yongfu really didn't have any way to take this big brother who was out of tune, she stomped her feet in embarrassment, and said angrily: "Brother Huang, what are you talking nonsense."

Yongchun rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "Brother Huang, my sister's matter is a big deal, or let your most trusted Yang Ling pick a horse for your sister, that guy must be attentive to your errand."

"Yang Ling?" Yongfu's eyes were stunned again, and Zhengde said happily: "Wow, this is a good idea, my big wedding, it is the marriage envoy of the Son of Heaven made by Yang Shiyu, hehe, the marriage of the imperial sister will also be handed over to him, okay!" Good! Xiuning, are you willing? ”

"I, I, I'm willing, listen to the arrangement of the royal brother."

"Willing? Why are you so unhappy? ”

"Well, by the way, Yang Qing is doing other errands very well, but he is not good at being a marriage envoy, look at the second concubine he found for me, it is still the heart that I have found. My fairy is right, or the royal sister will find a horse by herself, just like the stage stage, throw the hydrangea to invite relatives, hahaha".

"Goo!" Zhengde's smile did not fall, and he knelt down next to him, only to see Ma Yongcheng's face of sincere fear: "Don't let the emperor, the dignified princess of the Ming Dynasty, how can you show up and look for a horse by yourself, and throw hydrangeas to recruit relatives, it is not unorthodox, it violates the ancestral system, this is true."

"You're so annoying!" Emperor Zhengde glared and said, "The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, I am joking with the imperial sister, what are you shouting and howling?" Throwing hydrangeas? If you hit a scarred pockmark, isn't it a big loss? You idiot, should you be stupid? Get lost! Spread the will to go, and ordered Yang Ling of the outer court, Bi Zhen of the inner court, and the Marquis of Shouning to be responsible for choosing a horse for my royal sister, and go and go."

Ma Yongcheng hurriedly got up and ran away.

Zhengde chatted with Yongfu and Yongchun for a while, and looked at Tiandao: "I said that I made an appointment with an immortal today, and I won't stay in the palace, I am gone, and the royal sister is exempt, so there is no need to give it."

Princess Yongfu got up, confused for a moment, but she didn't know what she wanted to say.

Only Princess Yongchun was like a happy magpie, whispering in her ears: "Sister, didn't Zhu Xiang'er write to say that Yang Ling sent someone to put her under house arrest for a month, and asked my sister to clean him up, it was an opportunity for him to be a family envoy, this time, he must be a good person!" ”
