Chapter 11: The Palm

Yu Wenhua and his eyes flickered, and this is the case?

Yang Guang said lightly: "The content on this letter is purely false and distorts the facts, what's the matter?" Yu Wenhua and you didn't know to investigate the authenticity before handing it over to me? ”

"This is the minister's negligence." Yu Wenhua bowed his head and said: "The minister is just worried that Sima Dejiao will do something unfavorable to His Majesty, His Majesty is in danger of the safety of the Great Sui, and the minister has to be nervous!" ”

Yang Guang's eyes shot a sharp light: "Hmph, do you think I will believe your nonsense?" ”

Hearing that, Yu Wenhua and his face are even more ugly, Yang Guang and him are like needles against Mai Mang, and this matter may be difficult to end.

"Your Majesty, aren't we discussing the matter of Empress Xiao? How did it get involved with Sima Deji? ”

Yu Wenzhi came out and intervened: "Is there a problem with Empress Xiao, please also ask Your Majesty to promise to let the ministers and others strictly investigate, if Your Majesty does not agree, I am afraid it will chill the hearts of our courtiers." ”

Yang Guang sneered, seeing that he couldn't do anything about Sima Dejiao, he made a desperate attempt to pull Queen Xiao off the horse?

Sima Zhao's heart is clearly revealed.

One is the virtuous concubine beside him, and the other is a traitorous henchman who is trying to seek power and usurp the throne.

How to choose, do you still need to think about it?

"A few of you can't represent the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, aren't you chilling? Well, let's keep chilling. ”

"I only have one sentence, as long as I am still sitting on this dragon chair, then no matter who it is, I will not want to trouble Queen Xiao."

Yang Guang continued to get angry, pointed at Yuwen Zhiji and said, "And you, did I let you come out to speak?" You obviously don't take me seriously! Father-in-law Yang, slap my mouth for me! ”

"Yes!"

Yang Gonggong beside him walked towards Yuwen Zhihe and was about to make a move.

Yuwen Zhihe's face changed greatly, this Yang Guang really said that he would do it! He looked at Yang Gonggong viciously, but unfortunately Yang Gonggong was Yang Guang's close minister, and the relationship was there, how could he put him in his eyes, when he didn't see it.

"Slap", the crisp slap sound spread throughout the study, and the kneeling ministers trembled in their hearts.

Yu Wenhua secretly clenched his fists, originally, they were here to put pressure on Yang Guang, Empress Xiao and Sima Dejiao, just abolish one of them.

I didn't expect Yang Guang, who has always been weak and incompetent, to be so domineering and leaky, and dare to clean up Yuwen Zhiji in front of him.

"Your Majesty, what is wrong with Yuwen Zhi? Why did you punish him? Surrender or disobedience! ”

Yu Wenhua also moved the real fire, and a group of ministers behind him also began to intercede for Yu Wenzhihe.

"Your Majesty, Yuwen Zhi and the imperial court, Your Majesty will not affirm it, at this moment order a eunuch to palm, if this matter is spread, it will damage the prestige of heaven!"

It's just that Yang Guang's attitude was very tough, and he scolded everyone: "Shut up for me, whoever says more will be punished with Yuwen Zhihe." ”

For a while, the ministers present froze again and immediately closed their mouths.

It's okay to intercede for Yuwen Zhihe, but if you want to cause a commotion, then it's not okay, they are all old oilmen who have been in the officialdom for a long time, and each one is more shrewd than the other.

"Father-in-law Yang, continue to palm!"

"Bang Bang!"

A few more big mouths came down, and Venus appeared in front of Yuwen Zhiji's eyes, and Yang Gonggong's hand was really ruthless, if he was fanned a few more times, a row of teeth would have to be lost.

This time, he didn't dare to do it against Yang Guang, and begged for mercy with a crying voice: "Your Majesty, please don't treat the minister like this, the minister already knows that he is wrong, he shouldn't talk too much, and please forgive the minister this time for the sake of the minister's lack of credit to the Great Sui and hard work." ”

Yu Wenhua echoed: "Your Majesty is angry, Yu Wenzhi and Hao are officials in the court, so it doesn't look like being slapped all the time, why don't you stop for the time being and give him a chance to make meritorious contributions?" ”

When Yang Guang heard this, he pondered for a moment, and said angrily: "Okay, if it weren't for the fact that I was at the time of employing people, I would have to be killed today, Yuwen Zhiji, I hope you can remember today's lesson, or, next time it won't be as simple as slapping your mouth." ”

When Yu Wenzhi heard this, he rejoiced.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty."

His face was hot, and his speech was slurred.

However, Yang Gonggong had just returned to Yang Guang's side, and Yang Guang continued: "Just now, Yu Wenhua said that you will have a chance to make meritorious contributions, I think it is reasonable, and now there is such an opportunity, it depends on whether you can grasp it." ”

"Huh?"

Yu Wenzhi and Fox Suspicion.

Yang Guang raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "The generals of the Xiaoguo Army are raising food and salary for me to return to Chang'an, but you also know that now the imperial court is extremely short of silver, and there is no silver, how can I exchange it for enough food?" For this reason, even Cui Guifei is trying to find a way for me......"

Yuwen Zhihe finally reacted.

Yang Guang seems to have adopted everyone's opinions and no longer punished him, but in fact, he wants to take this opportunity to extort money, Yuwen's development to the current scale, there is a lack of everything, that is, there is no shortage of silver, and it is not a problem to break the fortune and avoid disasters, it is this kind of feeling of being calculated, but I don't dare to attack, it is really unpleasant.

"Your Majesty, even Concubine Cui can have this realization, and it would be too unreasonable for the minister to do nothing. In this way, the minister still has 1,000 taels of silver in his hand, and he is willing to hand it all over to buy grain and grass for the Great Sui. ”

Yang Guang glanced at him and said dissatisfiedly: "Yuwen Zhiji, a year ago, a transport team under your command was robbed by thieves in Wagangzhai, and only this once, more than 13,000 taels of gold were robbed, and now your 1,000 taels of silver, will it be less?" ”

The corner of Yu Wenzhi's mouth twitched: "The minister is still willing to take out 30,000 catties of grain and grass." ”

In this war-torn era, grain and grass are worth more than gold and silver, and even the landlord's family has no surplus grain, and Yuwen Zhihe can take out 30,000 catties of grain and grass, which is also considered hemorrhage.

But Yang Guang knew that 30,000 catties of grain and grass was not Yuwen Zhiji's bottom line, and the grain and grass in his hands were at least ten times as much as this number. However, if he continues to fight, he is afraid that it will backfire, and he is also worried that he will force the Yuwen clan to rebel directly.

"That should be pretty much it, right?" Yuwen Zhihe looked at Yang Guang and said with some pain.

Yang Guang looked indifferent: "30,000 catties of grain and grass, of course enough for ordinary people, but to support the entire Great Sui, it is a drop in the bucket." ”

After speaking, he sighed.

"It's difficult for the Great Sui, it's even more difficult to be the emperor for the Great Sui, all of you Aiqing, you are all loyal and virtuous ministers of the Great Sui, are you willing to be trapped in the ghost place of Jiangdu for the rest of your life? Or do you just want to watch Li Yuan occupy Chang'an, and we can only be driven to Jiangnan by him like dead dogs? ”
