Volume 1 Who Breaks the Void by the Stars Chapter 420 A New Legend Passes on Chang'an
The moment Ye Chang crossed the gate of the Xingqing Palace, more than two hundred pairs of eyes in the courtyard were staring at him at the same time.
At this moment, the sun shone on Ye Chang's face from the west, and the tight-fitting clothes on his body made him even more heroic.
Even Li Longji, who is the Son of Heaven and owns the four seas, at this time, he can't help but be jealous of Ye Chang's demeanor, as if he saw himself back then.
Under the attention of the ministers, Ye Chang strode up, came to the jade steps of the Xingqing Palace, bent down, and saluted Li Longji.
"Minister Ye Chang, meet Your Majesty and rely on Your Majesty's Hongfu, General Gao's command is determined, all the soldiers and officials serve their orders, and the king of thieves is captured, and now he is outside the palace. The rebellion in various parts of the city has gradually subsided, and now Chang'an and Wannian counties have organized manpower to hunt down and fight fires. β
"Okay, okay, it's only been less than an hour, a catastrophe, and it has been pacified by Qing" Li Longji heard this, he was overjoyed, walked down the jade steps, came to Ye Chang's side, and grabbed Ye Chang's arm: "Qing has worked hard, it is I who use people unclearly, so that the king and the thief steal a high position, what Qing Fang said on the Chunming Tower, it is the loyalty and straightforwardness"
The ministers also remembered at this time that not long ago, when the arithmetic competition was held, Ye Chang also accused Wang of harboring evil intentions, and now it seems that Ye Chang suddenly attacked Wang, and he was clearly aware of it
Sure enough, Ye Changying said: "The minister is not a prophet, but the king's brother Wang Weld, who has repeatedly sent people to spy on the whereabouts of the minister, and the minister has noticed it. β
This attitude, this explanation, Yang Zhao gritted his teeth again when he heard it.
This is inevitable, he can't do it if he doesn't grit his teeth, after Ye Chang's words came out, in the Wang's incident, he cleared the charge of knowing and not reporting, and he only had merit and no fault.
"Qing's merits, coupled with his repeated side merits, are not enough to praise loyalty and kindness" Li Longji said: "Chen Xilie, Yang Zhao"
Chen and Yang came out, but Li Longji waved his hand: "That's it, let me make it up to me......"
The so-called pro-proposal is to personally determine Ye Chang's official rank after making this great achievement. Ye Chang's scattered officials were promoted to the Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor, the Champion General, the Xun was the Pillar State, and the Jue also jumped to the founding prince of Qingyuan County, and the rank official was the general of the Left Xiaowei and the general of the Zuo Xiaowei, and the right scattered cavalry was a regular attendant, and the poor officer was the envoy of the Jiedu of the South Dao of the Jiejian, the deputy envoy of the Jiedu of Anxi, and the head of the march of Liaodong, all of which were the same.
In other words, Ye Chang's rank has risen to the second rank of the founding county prince and the pillar country, and in terms of rank alone, there are few people in the court.
As for the distribution of power and benefits, it is not what we say now, but we should decide in the future. After Ye Chang thanked him, he raised his head, but inadvertently met Shou An's gaze, Shou An was extremely bold, and his mouth pursed slightly, as if he was snorting.
Ye Chang is a spirit, this is teasing him.
Shou An is indeed uncontrollable, her affection for Ye Chang is needless to say, and Ye Chang's heroic appearance when she stepped into the gate of Xingqing Palace also made her heart break secretly. She originally had the spicy and bold side of the Li family's women, so she dared to do this, but fortunately, the attention of the ministers was on Ye Chang, but no one saw her like this.
Ye Chang didn't dare to look at her more, so he could only smile bitterly, and then retreated back into the courtiers.
Immediately afterwards, it was a personnel order, and Yuan Highway was finally promoted to the imperial historian and entered the ranks of the highest officials in the court, and Li Longji also ordered him to interrogate the king against the party with the Dali Temple and other associations, and Yang Zhao was the envoy of Jing Zhaoyin and Gyeonggi, and he was responsible for hunting down the remnants of the anti-party.
As for the rest of the guards, each has his own reward, and he will not mention it. This trend, first a math competition, and then a coup d'Γ©tat against the chaos, can be said to have dizzy everyone in Chang'an City, and at the same time, it also made people from all walks of life have a new evaluation of the situation in Datang. The ministers who were at the center of the storm in the imperial court were most impressed by this, and Yang Zhao, who had picked up a big bargain, also understood that he wanted to deal with Ye Chang, so he could only postpone it.
This temporary court meeting dragged on until the end of the unitary hour, it was already late, Yang Zhao went out of Xingqing Palace, but he was not in a hurry to leave, but waited in front of the door, and after a while, he saw Ye Changxing coming out.
Yang Zhao greeted Ye Chang with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Eleven Lang." β
When the two first became friends, Yang Zhao called Ye Chang "Eleven Lang", but as the two parted ways, this title has not appeared for a long time. Ye Chang smiled and arched his hand: "Where is it, I still have to congratulate Yang Gong, I will be in the picture in a few days."
Rao is Yang Zhao has now become extremely slippery in the officialdom, and at this time, he can't help but feel happy on his face. Indeed, only the king is competing with him in the court, as for Chen Xilie, what he is fighting with him is only power, and Ye Changzhizhi is not in the court for the time being. In a sense, he will soon become a figure under one man and above ten thousand.
Even ten years ago, even five or six years ago, this would have been unimaginable to him
"The opening of China and France in Anxi will be the first priority next year, and in addition, the matter of relocating the people from the Central Plains and Huainan should not be neglected." Yang Zhao held back the joy in his heart and began to show favor to Ye Chang: "These affairs, Eleven Lang is the most familiar, and I want to ask Eleven Lang to help"
"That's natural, after I go back, I will draw up a note, and then send it to Yang Gong to see."
Since Yang Zhao showed favor, of course Ye Chang had to take it, this was what he deserved.
Seeing that Ye Chang was so refreshing, Yang Zhao was a little uneasy, he made this great contribution to quelling the rebellion, within a year or two, it was obvious that Ye Chang would not be able to move, if he couldn't appease him, Ye Chang would make trouble for himself everywhere, even if he became the prime minister, it would be meaningless. Therefore, Yang Zhao pondered for a while, and then said: "The benefits of the rut track can be seen in the world, and I also want to make a big deal about the rut track, and this matter is none other than Eleven Lang, and I also have to ask Eleven Lang to prepare the relevant regulations." β
Real side, road repair, these are the two things that Ye Chang is most concerned about, and being able to divert his energy to these two things, at least he can find less trouble for himself, this is Yang Zhao's wishful thinking. Ye Chang also did not refuse to come, and should come down with this matter.
"Since Eleven Lang is aware of Wang's behavior against the party, I wonder if he can give me some guidance?" After showing goodwill, Yang Zhao will receive some benefits. Since he took over as Jing Zhaoyin and was responsible for arresting Wang Tongdang, this matter must be handled beautifully, otherwise with Ye Chang's chaotic Zhuyu in front, he can't even sweep away the small remnants, don't let the Manchu Dynasty laugh.
"There are some clues, Wang rebels against the party, most of them are city fox society rats, and Wang Zhu came forward to appease and contact, among which Xing Lu is the leader, his residence is in Jinchengfang, and there are several hiding places outside the city." Ye Chang said this, slightly hesitating.
Seeing him in this situation, Yang Zhao didn't understand, he must still have something to hide, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Eleven Lang, the matter of Twenty-Nine Niang, you also know the way, if it is not that the dog has such ambitions, it is really the saint who is not full of thoughts for a while...... In this matter, I also asked Eleven Lang to apologize to the twenty-ninth noble lord on behalf of the foolish brother. β
"Huh." Ye Chang smiled, but did not answer.
Yang Zhao's curiosity was aroused, and he asked a few more times, but Ye Chang just shook his head, and was asked too much, so he reluctantly said: "Yang Gong, this matter is very important, I don't dare to say more, you go to the trial of the torture and other generations, and ask them what they are going to do after killing Chen Xuanli and forcing the saint to abdicate."
Yang Zhao felt a pang in his heart, how many things could Ye Chang dare not say in the whole world?
He pondered carefully, and then trembled: Prince?
This time, Wang Yi's party conspired against him, and their plan was to force the Son of Heaven to abdicate, but Li Longji became the emperor, and someone had to be the emperor, so who would it be?
When it comes to taking over the throne, there is no doubt that Li Heng, as the crown prince, will always be the first person to be remembered
Involved in the position of the prince, no wonder Ye Chang didn't dare to say, except for a power traitor like Li Linfu, how many people dare to manipulate this kind of thing?
Yang Zhao was thinking about it carefully, but Ye Chang sighed again: "Yang Gong, to tell you the truth, you and I have been fighting for each other before, why bother, it is rich, how can it be permanent?" I just want to do something practical...... Wealth is like a floating cloud to me. β
After finishing speaking, Ye Chang arched his hand, said goodbye and left, leaving Yang Zhao there alone in a daze.
Ye Chang's last words were full of emotions of seeing through the world, he was rewarded just now, why did he see the world at this time?
Thinking about the things he mentioned before, Yang Zhao's uneasiness in his heart was even worse.
He is good, Ye Chang is good, and Wang, their power is based on Li Longji's trust, Li Longji is old, even if he lives a long time, can he stay on the throne for a few more years? When the time comes, the new monarch will be replaced, how will these old ministers have any good end?
Ye Chang still has real meritorious deeds, if he wasn't dragged down by Li Linfu, he would have reused his talents. He Yang Zhao relied on Yang Yuhuan's nepotism, and if the new monarch succeeded to the throne, such a figure as him would become the target of the first round of purges by the new monarch
With Yang Zhao's temperament, it was not so easy to be confused by Ye Chang's words, but today's situation is changing, he is almost completely a spectator, but he has picked up a big bargain for nothing, and under the agitation of the mood, he naturally can't help but think crankily. Moreover, what Ye Chang said was implicit but not revealing, the more it was so, the more it could arouse his suspicions.
Regardless of whether what Ye Chang meant was right or not, there was something good, he had to conclude Wang's case as soon as possible, so that he could turn his energy to the position of prime minister who ran himself.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao's spirits perked up, and he immediately ordered his entourage: "Please send the forbidden army to Dali Temple, and we will also go to Dali Temple, today I will judge the torture and other generations at night."
All of them left, and Li Longji sent all his descendants back, only Gao Lishi and Yang Yuhuan were by his side, Li Longji glanced at Gao Lishi and said with a smile: "General Gao has made meritorious contributions today." β
Gao Lishi bowed and saluted: "The slave and maid are guilty, they should not ask the saint for leave, and when the rebellion occurs, the slave and maid fail to accompany the guards......"
"With Shou'an by my side, what are you worried about, you old thing, what's more, you also worked with Ye Chang to quell the chaos and made a contribution" Li Longji's eyes narrowed slightly: "I'm a little curious, what's going on?" β
"The slave maid returned to the mansion, saw the fireworks, and knew that it was wrong, so he rushed to the palace, and on the way he met several groups of thieves, all of whom were dispersed by the slave and maid, and when he arrived at Wannian County, he happened to meet Ye Chang, and learned that the saint had been guarded by General Chen, and the slave and maid were a little relieved." Gao Lishi said: "After capturing the king, Ye Chang said that he was a foreign minister, and he was afraid that the officials and soldiers in Beijing would not be convinced, and the slaves and maids had followed the saint for many years, and they were familiar in front of the officials and the people, so I asked the slaves and maids to help quell the chaos." β
These words are true, but Gao Lishi concealed that he was notified by Ye Chang, and he also deliberately vaguely said that his encounter with Ye Chang was actually after Ye Chang had captured the king. It sounded as if everything was handled by him and Ye Chang.
Li Longji trusted him very much, and when he heard him say this, he sighed and said: "I am old after all, and I actually have some unknown people, misused Wang, and misunderstood Ye Chang...... Alas"
"Why did the saint say this, the king is treacherous, the human face is beastly, and the Manchu Dynasty has no knowledge of the civil and military affairs, is it just a saint? As for Ye Chang, if it weren't for the saint's exceptional promotion, would he be able to reach the third rank and the founding prince at a young age? If it weren't for the saint to let him do it, how could he have repeatedly made meritorious contributions and exalted his prestige in the peerless realm? Colliers said with a smile.
This is not all flattery, Li Longji thought about it carefully, it is true, although he was a little suspicious of Ye Chang, but when Ye Chang led the troops outside, he never pulled Ye Chang's hind legs on the supply of soldiers and logistics support, and he did not even send an ambassador to the supervising army, even if Ye Chang arrested his boss Gao Xianzhi, he laughed it off. In this way, being able to use Ye Chang is his own skill.
Gao Lishi was overjoyed when he saw Li Longji, and thinking of the help Ye Chang gave him today, he spoke again: "The slave maid is in Beijing, and I have never known that Ye Chang is majestic in the frontier. Although I have met Ye Chang a few times before, I always feel that this is just a handsome young man, where is the majesty of a general. But today, when the chaos is calmed down and walks with Ye Chang, I finally see Ye Chang's majesty, which is really worthy of its reputation."
"Oh, what do you mean by that?"
"Wang Weld, the brother of the king's rebellion, is ferocious, a tyrant in Chang'an, and he is bold enough to kill good people. But after seeing Ye Chang, he was just stared at, and he vomited blood and died; When Ye Chang arrived at the Wannian County Office, dozens of errands were facing each other, and Ye Chang drove forward immediately, just a β₯ to open it, and he drank so many people that they crawled; After he entered the county government, in the face of Wang Rebellious, he only said a few words, and he was arrested, and he didn't dare to resist at all" Gao Lishi had already inquired a lot of news when he came, and some details were not even clear to Ye Chang himself, speaking of which, he sighed again: "The ancients are cloudy, evil is invincible." Now that the Holy Son of Heaven is above, there is such a righteous person, who can drink through the evil and make the young people break their courage"
Li Longji didn't expect that there were these interesting things in the counterinsurgency, he listened to them with relish, and Shou'an, who was following him, was even more beautiful, it was Yang Yuhuan, and he couldn't help but be fascinated at this time. After Gao Lishi finished speaking, Li Longji smacked it carefully, and then said with a smile: "The storyteller in Beijing, I'm afraid there are legends to talk about."
