Taiyuan stayed behind was originally the king of Guan Yang Xiong, after Yang Xiong died in Goryeo, this seat was vacant, Yu Wenshu has been thinking about giving himself Yu Wenhua and seeking this position, but Li Yuan also took a fancy to it, which made him a little embarrassed in his heart, and he had the heart not to agree, but the gold in front of him made it difficult for him to refuse.

Yuwen Shu thought about it and smiled: "That's it! I will keep the gold with me for the time being, and I will do my best to find a job for your brother, and if it really doesn't work, I will return it to you. ”

"Then everything depends on General Yuwen!"

Li Shentong said a few kind words, then gave his hand to leave, Yu Wenshu paced back and forth in front of the four boxes of gold with his hands behind his back, now the money is cheap and expensive, these four boxes of gold are now worth at least 400,000 hangs, how can he be willing to return such a huge fortune.

At this time, a family report came from outside the door: "The second master is here!" ”

The second master is Yuwenshu's younger brother Yuwence, who came just in time, Yuwenshu hurriedly said: "Let him come to my study." ”

Of course, Yu Wenshu is not an only child, he also has brothers and sisters, he has three brothers, and many brothers and brothers, although it is not a famous family, but it is also a big family.

Yu Wenshu is the eldest son, and the actual patriarch of the whole family, the second brother is Yu Wence, who is named the chief doctor, and has no real position for the time being.

After a while, Yu Wence walked into the study, and when he saw four large boxes in the study, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother has done a good deal!" ”

"Hey! Not to mention, this time it made me a little embarrassed.

Yuwenshu invited his brother to sit down, and the maid brought two bowls of hot buttermilk, although it is very popular to drink tea now, Yuwenshu still maintains the tradition of the past, buttermilk is milk or mare's milk, which is the custom of the Xianbei people.

"What's the trouble with my brother?"

"This is sent by Li Yuan, more than 10,000 taels of gold, he wants to seek a position to stay in Taiyuan."

"Oh? Li Yuan also wants to take charge of the military? ”

Yu Wence was a little surprised, and he said cautiously: "Could it be that Li Yuan also has a heart of disobedience. ”

"This can't be!"

Yu Wenshu waved his hand, "I know this person very well, he is cowardly and a little cautious, but let him rebel, he doesn't dare to give him ten guts, he just doesn't want to stay in Zhuo County." ”

"Brother is saying that he and Yang Yuanqing don't get along well?"

"It's also one of the reasons, but the more important reason is that he wants to take another step, and the Taishou is one level higher than the Zhuojun Taishou, and it is much easier to sit in the position of Taiyuan and stay in Taiyuan, and come back to be a scholar or even enter the cabinet as a minister."

Speaking of this, Yu Wenshu frowned, "The problem is, I want to replace Hua and seek this position left behind in Taiyuan, Yu Shiji has already promised to recommend it for me, if it is given to Li Yuan, I am a little unwilling." ”

"What about the other duties? Will Li Yuan accept it? ”

Yu Wenshu shook his head, "I also asked Li Shentong, and he said that Li Yuan would not consider other positions for the time being. ”

Yu Wence knew his nephew Yu Wenhua very well, he pondered for a moment, and then said to his brother: "Big brother, I don't think it is very likely that he will be left behind in Taiyuan. ”

"Do you think so?"

Yu Wence nodded, "The Holy Lord will not let Hua He ascend to the high position in one step, at most let him enter the Twelve Guards as a general, big brother, to say something unpleasant, to stay in Taiyuan, Hua Ji's qualifications are not enough, even if Yang Yuanqing becomes the head of Youzhou, he will rely on continuous meritorious service to get his position." ”

This is actually Yu Shiji's persuasion to Yu Wenshu, Taiyuan is a little too difficult for Yu Wenhua to stay in this position. Yu Wenshu looked at the four boxes of gold, and he finally nodded, just for the sake of gold, he gave Li Yuan this favor.

At this time, Yu Wence remembered something again, and hurriedly said to Yu Wen: "Last time, the eldest brother said that Li Zhongliang hinted that the eldest brother could deal with Yang Yuanqing, I think it is a bit unreliable?" ”

Yu Wenshu waved his hand and smiled: "Then Li Zhongliang is because Yang Yuanqing purged his nephew, so he has a grudge and wants to borrow my hand to take revenge on Yang Yuanqing, after all, he is just a eunuch, his vision is relatively short-sighted, and seeing a little wind is rain." ”

"What the eldest brother means is not to deal with Yang Yuanqing."

Yuwen Shu glanced at his brother and said lightly: "Now that our Yuwen family has more important things, at this time, don't make enemies easily, and wait until the future to settle old accounts with him." ”

As the night wore on, the sky began to fall with fine snowflakes, and the streets were deserted and unusually silent, and the drums that closed the gates rumbled to beat eight hundred times, and it would take at least a quarter of an hour for the gates to be closed.

Seeing that the city gate is about to be closed, the major gates of the capital are crowded with people rushing out of the city, there is always such a group of people, they will not think of going out of the city until the last moment, every day is like this, and the soldiers guarding the city are also used to it.

"Don't squeeze everyone, take your time!"

In front of Dingding Gate, due to more than a dozen carriages, it was extremely crowded to go out of the city, hundreds of people shouted and scolded, but there was nothing to be done, the carriage had blocked the entire city gate passage.

The captain on duty today was surnamed Yu, and when he heard the noise, he ran down from the city, "What's the matter?" ”

He saw that the passage of the city gate was blocked by more than a dozen carriages, and the speed of progress was very slow, so he couldn't help but say angrily: "Whose horse is this?"

A soldier ran up and whispered: "Captain, this is the Yuan family's carriage, there are twenty-three in total, all of which are transporting goods out of the city, so it is relatively slow." ”

Hearing that it was the Yuan family's carriage, Captain Yu was suddenly so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything, and he didn't dare to stop them when he watched these carriages go out.

A car gradually walked into the road, at this time, the curtain on the carriage quietly opened a crack, revealing a pale face, this is a man of nearly fifty years old, he has been imprisoned since the second year of Renshou Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, at this time, he has been rescued by the Yuan family by stealing beams for pillars.

The long-term solitary life has made Yang Xiu extremely silent, from the time he left the palace to the present, he has not said more than three sentences, he has accepted everything silently, he is like a puppet, at the mercy of the Yuan family.

He pulled the curtain and looked out the window at the snowflakes falling one after another, his eyes revealing an incomparable sense of loss, and the emotions of his inner world could only be revealed from his eyes.

Suddenly, he suddenly saw several Sui soldiers, an officer was looking at him curiously, he suddenly remembered the moment when he was pushed into the deep courtyard, no matter how he pleaded, the Sui soldiers still dragged his most beloved son away, and since then the world has been separated, Yang Xiu's eyes suddenly shot out of bitter hatred, stabbing the officer not far away.

Captain Yu also found the man hiding in the carriage, and he was also a little strange in his heart, it was obviously a carriage for loading, why was there still a person hidden in the carriage? But he didn't dare to ask more, the power of the Yuan family was not something that he could afford to provoke as a small captain.

At this time, the vicious and hateful gaze shot by the man in the carriage startled Captain Yu, and that kind of gaze like a beast made him palpitate for a while, and he took two steps back in horror, who is this person?

The carriage finally left the city, and hundreds of people who were waiting anxiously followed suit, and the city gate finally closed slowly.

Captain Yu shook his head, and was about to go to the city to sleep, but a soldier called him, "Captain Yu, someone is looking for you." ”

As soon as Captain Yu turned around, he saw a person who looked like a butler walking forward, and a carriage was parked in the distance.

"General Yu, my lord is invited!"

Captain Yu saw that the carriage was quite gorgeous, and there were dozens of guards on both sides, he didn't dare to put up a fight, so he asked, "Who is your master?" ”

The housekeeper stepped forward and whispered to him, Captain Yu's face changed in fright, and he ran to the carriage in a panic, and he knelt down on one knee in front of the window, "Captain Yu Fang see Dugu Xiangguo!" ”

The car window opened, revealing Dugu Zhen's face with a kind smile, "The old man just came out to see the snow scene." ”

He changed his words and asked again: "Whose carriage was that just now, going out of the city at this time?" ”

"Back to Dugu Xiangguo, it was the Yuan family's carriage, and it was full of loaded goods."

"Oh! It seems that you saw something just now, and you look a little scared, what is it? ”

Captain Yu was a little surprised in his heart, how could his every move, Dugu Xiangguo knew, he didn't dare to hide it and had to say: "Just now, I found that there was a person hiding in the carriage, about forty or fifty years old, with a pale face and fierce eyes like a beast, so I was startled. ”

"Then why don't you go for cross-examination?"

Captain Yu lowered his head, and said timidly for a while: "That's the Yuan family's carriage, don't dare to be humble."

"Okay, I won't embarrass you, you go!"

Captain Yu saluted and left in a hurry, Dugu Zhen lowered the curtain, and the carriage turned around and headed north.

"Is that him?" In the carriage, Dugu Liang, who was sitting in the back row, asked.

Dugu Zhen nodded, "It should be him." ”

"What should we do, master?"

Dugu Liang was a little worried: "If the Yuan family has an incident, I am worried that it will damage the interests of our Dugu family." ”

Dugu Zhen closed his eyes and leaned on his soft back, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said: "If the Yuan family wants to succeed, he still has to rely on the support of the Guanlong nobles, if he dares to infringe on the interests of my Dugu family, then he will definitely lose." ”

"Family master, I don't think it's necessary to let the Yuan family cause trouble, it will make enemies for us in the future."

Dugu Liang has always been a little incomprehensible to what the head of the family did, first supported Li Yuan, Dugu family made wedding dresses, and now indulged the Yuan family, he really can't understand why he didn't nip the Yuan family in the bud and eradicate future political enemies.

Dugu Zhen could feel the dissatisfaction in the eldest nephew's heart, he sighed in his heart, this nephew always attaches too much importance to the immediate interests, always ignores the backbone, only looks at the branches and leaves, and always thinks that the Yuan family will rob the interests of the Dugu family, but forgets that the real enemy is the Sui Dynasty.

"Everything has pros and cons, so we have to weigh the pros and cons all the time, as long as the pros outweigh the disadvantages, it is feasible, although the Yuan family will become our future enemy, but the rebellion of the Yuan family will bring a heavy blow to Yang Sui, our real enemy is not the Yuan family, but Yang Sui, the Yuan family is the same, since there is a common enemy, then why should we fight first?"

Dugu Zhen sneered again, "The Yuan family is willing to be a pioneer and weaken Yang Sui for us, why not?" ”
