Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Reversal

In the imperial study, Pei Yun presented a thick stack of impeachment notes from each county to Yang Guang, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is the impeachment book sent to the Yushitai by the counties of Hebei, all of which are impeachment of Yu Wenhui for extorting money and adultering people's daughters, a total of thirteen copies, from thirteen counties along the way, the evil that Yu Wenhui did along the way can be described as a difficult book, and the minister does not dare to hide it." ”

Yang Guang's face was gloomy, and he flipped through the folds one by one, he suddenly threw them to the ground, and shouted angrily: "Do you mean that I am blind, and use a wine bag and rice bag, a bastard who does all kinds of evil, to make the imperial history?" ”

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger, the minister didn't mean to accuse the saint at all, but this Yu Wenhui is indeed such a person, as far as the minister knows, during the disaster last year, Zhang Xutuo had no rice at home, and had to send his wife and daughter to the capital, how can such a poor minister have the money to deal with Yu Wenxi's blackmail, and what is the letter that Yu Wenhui finally wrote to His Majesty?"

Yang Guang's mood today is extremely bad, Yu Wenhui was actually taken away by thieves, he is a dignified inspector of the imperial history, the Great Sui has never had a scandal in the more than 30 years since the founding of the country, this matter is spreading, where is his Yang Guang's face placed?

Yang Guang felt that he had lost face, on the one hand, he hated the bandits to the bone, on the other hand, he hated Yu Wenxuan for not being angry, Yang Yuanqing inspected more than 20 counties without damage, he planted himself in the ditch as soon as he went out, two hundred people with two horses, can't he beat and run?

In the face of Pei Yun's attack, Yang Guang held his anger in his heart, and he couldn't get out, so he had to hate and say: "Then in your opinion, who is the right person to send?" ”

Pei Yun said unhurriedly: "Since Yu Shilang suspected that Yang Yuanqing was harboring and conniving at Zhang Xutuo, saying that it was not appropriate for Yu Shitai to investigate Yu Shitai, Nachen recommended his brother Yu Shinan to investigate this matter, so that he would have nothing to say." ”

Yang Guang was stunned, "How does this matter have anything to do with Yu Shilang?" ”

Pei Yun smiled and said, "When has Your Majesty ever seen the folds reviewed by the feudal staff, and if Yu Shilang didn't sign it, he dared to give it to His Majesty without authorization?" ”

Yang Guang took out the Qi County review report from the drawer, he turned a few pages, and sure enough, there was no signature of Yu Shiji, and every book handed over by other internal history provinces had Yu Shiji's seal, Yang Guang suddenly realized, he suddenly had a feeling of being fooled, and he was furious in his heart, and shouted: "Quickly announce that Yu Shiji is here to see me!" ”

After a pause, he ordered again: "Also announce that Yang Yuanqing is coming to see me!" ”

It was very quiet in the imperial study, Yang Guang gradually calmed down, he saw Pei Yun slowly picking up the folds, and suddenly remembered the relationship between Yang Yuanqing and the Pei family, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, these ministers are all ill-intentioned, each for their own benefit, and a few of them are really considered for the Great Sui Sheji, including Pei Yun in front of him.

Feng Deyi said, 'How can there be a royal history to check the imperial history', in fact, it also refers to something else, referring to Pei Yun will shield Yang Yuanqing, if Yang Guang has an understanding, how can this matter not be a secret fight between Yu Shiji and Pei Yun?

At this moment, the monstrous anger that arose in Yang Guang's heart because he was fooled by Yu Shiji disappeared, and his imperial wisdom was quickly restored in his mind, and he saw Pei Yun through at once, with Pei Yun's decades of officialdom experience, could he not have thought that Yu Shiji did not sign at that time? Even if he didn't think of it at the time, but more than ten days later, why didn't he say it, he had to wait until Yu Wenyi had an accident and he was furious.

He wanted to take the opportunity to bring down Yu Shiji, Pei Ju was not there, Yu Wenshu was going to go on the expedition, Su Wei was a good man, and Dugu Zhen didn't care about anything, so the power of the cabinet would naturally be transferred to his Pei Yun's hands.

Yang Guang also had to admire Pei Yun's old scheming, so he said lightly: "Yuwen is useless, I won't use him anymore, as for the matter of the new school of imperial history, I will think about it again, Pei Aiqing will step back first!" ”

"Retire!"

Pei Yun saw that Yang Guang had calmed down, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, if he wanted to take the opportunity to bring down Yu Shiji today, he was afraid that he would not be able to achieve it, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Yang Guang immediately ordered: "First order Yu Shiji to see him, and Yang Yuanqing will wait to see him." ”

Pei Yun walked to the deck, and when he saw Yu Shiji coming in a hurry, he smiled, and said in a low voice: "The Holy Lord is now thundering and angry, Yu Shilang be careful!" ”

"I see, thank you!"

Yu Shiji bowed his hand and hurriedly entered, Pei Yun walked down the boat ladder, just in time to see Yang Yuanqing being led and waiting in the waiting area, so he stepped forward and said with a smile: "These three months have been hard." ”

Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly: "Actually, I am traveling in the mountains and rivers, and the real hard work is those imperial histories, checking the accounts day and night." ”

Pei Yun nodded, and he said in a low voice: "The incident you entrusted me with last time has already been found out." ”

Yang Yuanqing perked up and hurriedly asked, "What is the reason?" ”

Yang Yuanqing is entrusted to Pei Yun to help check Zhang Xutuo's military exploits, three months ago he defeated Wang Bo and completely exterminated the bandits in Qi County, but after Yang Zhiji asked Zhang Xutuo to report it, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, three months passed, there was no news at all, although Zhang Xutuo did not care, but Yang Yuanqing felt unhappy for him.

Pei Yun said: "The copy is now sleeping in the military department, and it will be returned when it is sent to the Ministry of Internal History, and it will be reported after verification by the military department." ”

Yang Yuanqing sneered, and sure enough, it was Yu Shiji again, and he hurriedly saluted, "Thank you grandfather for your help, I know it in my heart." ”

Pei Yun patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "The officialdom is deep, go ashore in the morning!" ”

He turned around and left, Yang Yuanqing silently looked at Pei Yun's back, savoring the deep meaning of his words.

........

In the imperial study, Yang Guang stood in front of the window, looking at Yu Shiji coldly, without a glance, Yu Shiji looked at the Qi County review report in front of him, sweating profusely, he didn't know how to explain it, he also knew that he was ready to blame Feng Deyi at that time, but Yang Guang didn't pay attention to it at the time, and this matter was mixed up.

He didn't expect that this matter broke out at this time, and three months had passed, so how could he explain it? Push it to Feng Deyi? Yang Guang is not a three-year-old child, which will only make the situation more serious, but how can he explain it now?

"This thing.... Wechen can't remember anymore, let.... Wechen checks, if it is Wechen's responsibility, Wechen must bear it. ”

He now has no choice but to make a big deal small, and blame this matter as his own negligence, and he must not admit that this is his conspiracy against Yang Yuanqing.

Yang Guang sighed slightly, he hoped that Yu Shiji would put the responsibility on Feng Deyi and find a step for himself, but Yu Shiji did not read his own mind, he had always figured out the holy will very accurately, but today he did not figure it out.

But it's not bad, he at least knows he can't admit it.

Yang Guang sat back in his seat, he drew an edict in the recital, which was regarded as an official recognition of Yang Yuanqing's report, no matter whether Zhang Xutuo was greedy, honest or not, whether Yang Yuanqing covered it up or not, he didn't want to make any more extraneous branches.

Yang Guang glanced at Yu Shiji and said lightly: "I remind you, it's only three things, and this is the second time for you." ”

Yu Shiji wiped the sweat from his forehead and didn't dare to say a word.

"In the future, the government affairs of the DPRK and China will discuss with Pei Shangshu more, and retreat!"

"The minister understands, Your Majesty Xie!"

Yu Shiji slowly retreated, he knew in his heart that this was Pei Yun stabbing himself in the back, the saint did not pursue himself, obviously he wanted to leave himself to fight against Pei Yun, this is the meaning of the last sentence of the saint, this time, Yu Shiji figured out the right holy will.

Yang Guang waited for him to go away, and then ordered: "Xuan Yang Yuanqing will meet you!" ”

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan Yang Yuanqing will meet you!"

......

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan Yang Yuanqing will meet you!"

......

After a while, Yang Yuanqing hurriedly walked in, and he saluted, "Minister Yang Yuanqing sees Your Majesty!" ”

"Yang Aiqing is exempt!"

Yang Guang looked at the young general he once trusted the most with complicated eyes, and even he couldn't tell why he suddenly didn't believe in Yang Yuanqing.

Yang Yuanqing handed over the Fu Jie, "The minister has finished his inspection and is hereby handed over to His Majesty." ”

The eunuch took the rune and put it on the imperial case, Yang Guang picked up the rune and smiled: "I have already disposed of a group of officials and promoted a group of officials according to your compromise opinion, and this time Yang Aiqing has worked hard." ”

"It is the duty of Weichen to share worries for His Majesty, and I dare not say that it is hard."

"I'll reward you and the twelve Imperial Historians, but I have one thing to say."

Yang Guang pondered for a moment and said: "There are many ministers who pointed out that the two imperial historians of the Imperial History Observatory have an in-law relationship and have violated the rules of the court, obviously referring to you and the Pei family, and I really didn't take this into account at that time. ”

Yang Yuanqing understood what Yang Guang meant, he wanted to transfer himself out of the Yushitai, and then put himself somewhere for a few months or half a year, and then find an excuse to transfer away, as his own dough, knead with him?

Without waiting for Yang Guang to say more, Yang Yuanqing bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has two things to report, can you allow the minister to report first?" ”

Yang Guang nodded, "Say it!" ”

"One thing, the minister doesn't know if the saint knows, Qi County Cheng Zhang Xutuo defeated the anti-thieves in Qi County three months ago, and the 40,000 anti-thieves were all wiped out, and now there is no more anti-thief in Qi County."

Yang Guang was stunned, "Why don't I know about this matter?" ”

"Taishou Yang Zhiji went to the military department three months ago to ask for credit for Zhang Xutuo, but there is no news so far, the minister doesn't know where the problem is, and now the four thousand county soldiers are complaining."

Yang Guang knows what the problem is, and it's damn Yu Shiji again, he doesn't know how many big things he has hidden from him, he must investigate this matter, and he must not be allowed to cover the sky like this again!

Although Yang Guang hated it so much, he didn't express his position immediately, and asked: "What is Yang Aiqing's second thing?" ”

Yang Yuanqing glanced back at the eunuch, and the eunuch at the door immediately presented a copper plate, and in the plate was a book that had just been written.

Yang Yuanqing said: "The minister lost his mother since he was a child, his mother was buried in Yingzhou, the cemetery was simple, every time he thought of this, the minister was sad, and he was extremely guilty, and the minister wanted to keep filial piety for his mother for three years, in order to fulfill his filial piety, he hereby resigned from his official position to His Majesty, and I hope that His Majesty will approve it!" ”

Yang Guang was stunned for a moment.
