Chapter 34: Two Sides and Three Swords

Everyone retreated, Feng Deyi and Yu Shiji returned to the Inner History Province, and when they saw that there was no one left and right, Yu Shiji complained to him: "Who is that Yu Wenyi? I don't know him well, how can I make him work for me? ”

Feng Deyi squinted his eyes and smiled: "It has nothing to do with him if you are not familiar with him, Yuwen Ying and Yuwen Zhihe, the son of Yu Wenshu, are friends of eight worships, so that Jun will go to Yuwen Shu, and the matter will be solved." ,”

Yu Shiji suddenly realized that he was still Feng Deyi was smart, and he sent him on the shoulder, and said approvingly: "Very good!" ”

........

Pei Yun hurriedly came out of the palace and walked towards his residence, Yang Guang still had suspicions about Yang Yuanqing, nominally to check Zhang Xutuo, but actually to check Yang Yuanqing, he had to tell Yang Yuanqing to prepare early.

Pei Yun, like all the ministers, lived on a big ship in Linqin Pond, the fleet was only ten miles away from Linshuo Palace, they rode horses to Linshuo Palace in the morning, and rode back in the evening, the gallop was wide and flat, and there was a forbidden army to protect them all the way, so it didn't take much time on the road.

At this time, it was already dark, Pei Yun walked out of the palace gate, a guard had already prepared his horse, Pei Yun turned over and got on the horse, just walked a few dozen steps, and suddenly heard someone behind him shouting to him, "Pei Shangshu, please slow down!" ”

As soon as Pei Yun turned around, he saw Feng Deyi rushing out, he couldn't help but be stunned and grabbed the reins.

"Sealer, what's the matter?"

Feng Deyi also rode his horse, urged the horse to catch up, and walked side by side with Pei Yun, Feng Deyi sighed slightly: "People are under the eaves, I have to bow my head, today's matter, please forgive Pei Shangshu!" ”

Pei Yun sneered, "I feel that the people who are sealed are having a very comfortable life, how can I talk about the word 'bow your head'?" ”

Feng Deyi smiled bitterly, "Yuanqing is my wife and nephew, and he is the grandson of Mrs. Yang, I have been favored by the servant for a long time, how can I harm him?" Today's events are really instructed by Yu Shilang, everything is arranged by him, and I just come forward for him. ”

"But Yu Shiji can't think of using Yu Wenyi!"

Feng Deyi smiled slightly, "Yu Wenyi, this person is as timid as a mouse, lustful, isn't it easy to deal with him?" Actually, Pei Shang",")"

"For whom?"

"Yu Shinan, Yu Shiji's brother, this person is called upright."

Pei Yun showed remorse in his eyes, he really didn't expect it, Pei Yun sighed slightly, and patted Feng Deyi on the shoulder, "You are good, you still have a little conscience." ”

Pei Yun rode away, Feng Deyi looked at Pei Yun walking away, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, Pei Yun actually said that he still had a little conscience, did he really have a conscience? He didn't know it himself, he just didn't want to offend Pei Valve.

..........

Zuo Yiwei general Yu Wenshu's court room is also in the Linshuo Palace, although the night is late, but Yu Wenshu is still busy in the court room, sorting out the military dossier, Yu Wenshu is still one of the cabinet members, in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, this Eastern Expedition to Goryeo, he is also one of the generals of the unified army, his heart is full of apprehension, he doesn't know how to deal with himself in this Eastern Crusade?

Just when Yu Wenshu was sitting in the court room and thinking nonsense, a guard at the door reported: "General, Yu Shilang is here!" ”

Yu Wenshu was stunned, what did Yu Shiji do when he came to find himself? Is there any militaristic government to discuss with yourself? He hurriedly ordered: "Please let him in!" ”

After a while, Yu Shiji walked in with a smile, and when he entered the door, he arched his hand and said, "General Yuwen is still busy with official business so late, which is admirable!" ”

Yuwen Shu said with a smile: "Anyway, there is nothing to do when I go back, these affairs have to be done sooner or later, it is better to finish it early, and you can take a little rest in a few days." ”

Yuwenshu asked Yu Shiji to sit down, and ordered someone to serve tea, Yuwenshu and Yu Shiji, both of them are Yang Guang's dragon faction, but Yuwenshu was dragged down by his two sons, and has gradually lost Yang Guang's trust, Yu Shiji replaced Yuwenshu and became Yang Guang's first favorite.

Yu Wenshu was more or less uncomfortable with Yu Shiji, but Yu Shiji had the right to nominate personnel, and Yu Wenshu considered his two sons, and he didn't dare to offend Yu Shiji.

The two chatted a few words about the situation of the military department, and as soon as Yu Shiji changed the topic, he smiled and said: "Two days ago, when I was talking to the saint about some available materials in the field, the saint actually mentioned Ling Langhua. (,)”

Yu Wenshu was suddenly surprised and delighted, he knew that with Yu Shiji's identity, he would not lie to himself, could it be that the Holy Lord really wanted to use his son again? But Yu Shiji's subsequent words made his heart cold again.

"But General Yuwen shouldn't be too happy, the Holy Lord mentioned Ling Lang's name when considering the appointment of General Yingyang Lang because he recruited a lot of Shandong soldiers, but he didn't decide whether to use it or not?"

The smile on Yu Wenshu's face immediately became extremely bitter, if he went to Liaodong to fight, he would rather his son be a civilian.

"Thank you Yu Shilang for reminding me, I don't know if Yu Shilang came to find you tonight, what's the matter?"

Yu Shiji groaned and said, "Does General Yuwen know this person?" ”

Yu Wenshu said with a smile: "He is the grandson of Yu Wenqing, although he has the same surname as me, but he has no in-law relationship, but this person grew up in the palace and is quite loved by the saint, and the saint once told me that Yu Wenqing is his righteous son, which shows the saint's trust in him, but this person's ability is still lacking." ”

Yuwen said it more implicitly, that is, Yu Wenyu is incompetent.

Yu Shiji smiled and asked: "I heard that he has a good relationship with Ling Langzhi." ”

"It's okay! Once upon a time they were all guards in the palace, and my son was his boss. ”

Yu Wenshu glanced at Yu Shiji strangely, "Yu Shilang, is something wrong?" ”

"Actually, it's not a big deal, the saint suspects that Yang Yuanqing is protecting Zhang Xutuo in Qi County, so he sent Yu Wenhui to check Zhang Xutuo again......"

Yu Shiji stopped talking unsatisfied, and looked at Yu Wenshu with a smile on his face, Yu Wenshu's eyes narrowed with a smile, he understood what Yu Shiji meant, this was indeed a good opportunity to bring down Yang Yuanqing, he and Yu Shiji glanced at each other, and both of them laughed tacitly.

........

Yu Shiji said goodbye and left, Yu Wenshu stood in front of the window with his hands, he was still pondering Yu Shiji's intentions, it was obvious that Yu Shiji wanted to join forces with him to deal with Yang Yuanqing, so could they form an alliance because of Yang Yuanqing, a common enemy, Yu Wenshu needed an ally like Yu Shiji too much.

On the other hand, if Yang Yuanqing is brought down prematurely, there will be no common enemy between him and Yu Shiji, and there will be no basis for an alliance.

Ever since Yuwenshu discovered that the Great Sui had become in danger because of Yang Guang's conquest of Goryeo, he realized that the opportunity to replace the Sui was coming, and at this time, his Yang Yuanqing's personal feud was no longer important, and he paid more attention to how to accumulate as much strength as possible and wait for the opportunity.

Today, he suddenly found that Yu Shiji hated Yang Yuanqing to the core, and he immediately thought that this was a good opportunity to catch Yu Shiji, he couldn't get rid of Yang Yuanqing so easily, he wanted to leave Yang Yuanqing as a bait.

At this time, his son Yu Wenhua walked in, Yu Wenhua has no official position, he is also helping him do things, and he is his personal staff.

"Father, the child is back."

"Hmm!"

Yuwen Shu turned around and asked, "Did he give it?" ”

Yu Wenhua was ordered by his father to ask his uncle Li Hun for money, Li Hun is Yu Wenshu's brother-in-law, and one of the nobles of Guanlong, with huge family assets, his father is Li Mu, the Duke of Shenguo, but Li Mu has ten sons, Li Hun is the youngest, it is not his turn to inherit his father's title, Renshou two years, the eldest grandson Li Yun who inherited the title died of illness, Li Hun wanted to seek this title, he found his brother-in-law Yu Wenshu, and promised that as long as Yu Wenshu helped him inherit the title, he gave Yu Wenshu 50,000 yuan a year.

Yuwenshu through Yang Guang's relationship, let Li Hun get his wish, and was named the Duke of Shen, but Li Hun was not trustworthy, only gave it for two years, and then he would no longer give it, which made Yuwenshu hate it in his heart.

A few years ago, Yu Wenshu didn't care about this money, but as he had the heart to get up, he needed to accumulate wealth to recruit troops, and Li Hun's money became extremely important, Li Hun now owes him a total of six years, a total of 300,000 hanging money, Yu Wenshu asked his eldest son Yu Wenhua to ask for this money.

Yu Wenhua shook his head, "Father, he said that he only promised his father one year back then, and he gave two years, which is already doubled, so that his father should stop being delusional." ”

"Bastard!"

Yu Wenshu was furious, smashed the window with a punch, gritted his teeth and said: "One day, I have to let him live rather than die!" ”

Yu Wenhua didn't know how to persuade his father, so he said: "If the father is fine, the child will go back." ”

Yu Wenshu thought of Yu Shiji's incident just now, so he couldn't help but breathe, "What about your brother's wisdom?" ”

"He's outside, he just met the old man Yu Wenyi, chatting and catching up."

Yuwen Shu was stunned, it was really a coincidence, he hurriedly smiled and said, "You go and invite both of them in, I have something to say to them." ”

...........

At this time, Yang Yuanqing has been inspecting Hebei and Henan for nearly three months, a total of 22 counties, gradually approaching the end, at this time he is in the last county, Beihai County inspection, he almost went around a circle, Beihai County After the inspection, he returned to Qi County to end this inspection.

At this time, he was talking about the situation in front of him with Cui Mu, the Taishou of Beihai County, who was an important figure in the Cui family of Qinghe, about forty years old, and had served as the Taishou of Beihai County for nearly three years, he was an optimist by nature, and when others were pessimistic about the prospects, he felt that the situation was not as bad as he thought.

"After all, the people don't want to be bandits, unless they really can't survive, but I think most of the current rebels are rabble, as long as the Shengshang ends the Goryeo campaign in the first half of next year, then it will mobilize troops to sweep away these rebels, it can be said that it is effortless, so I deduce that before the start of the summer harvest next year, the Great Sui will restore the original order, and now all worries are superfluous."

Yang Yuanqing said with a smile: "The key is that in the first half of next year, can the war end?" ”

"Goryeo Dongyi is a small country, with a population of less than one county of the Great Sui, if the millions of troops of the Great Sui can't clean it up, wouldn't it make the world laugh?"

Yang Yuanqing also sighed slightly, "As you said, I also hope that the war can end as soon as possible and the people will be calm, but I think the situation may not be so optimistic, it depends on whether the imperial court can stabilize the situation in Shandong this winter, if not, there will definitely be more rebellions." ”

At this moment, someone at the door said: "Yang Yushi, someone from Zhuo County is here, saying that there is something important to look for you." ”
