The blowing window is brighter, the moon shines on a day of snow, the winter wind is cold, and people's hearts are like water and easy to float.

After a long period of months of absence, when Lu Hanjiang, the new commander, returned to the capital again, he was like a big hand, smoothing out all the turbulence on the big river of the Beijing Division.

It was as if everything had returned to tranquility, and it was as heavy as dead silence, and there were relatively few visible-for-tat confrontations, but the invisible undercurrent was surging, but under this calm, it was frantically stirring.

Late at night, the lights were lit in the Yang family's study, and Yang Xuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, sat in front of the bookcase like a sculpture, thinking about it for a long time, and finally called the servants outside the door and ordered: "Go and call the son." ”

The servant retreated, and soon after, the sleepy-eyed Yang Zhiyuan, the son of the Yang family, walked into the study, and he yawned while complaining: "Dad, do you always know what time it is, and what can't you say tomorrow?" ”

Yang Xuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, is in his early fifties this year, his sideburns are sparse and gray hair can be seen, Yang Zhiyuan is his old son, not only a sister-in-law but also an only son, and he is spoiled on weekdays, which makes him develop such an unobtrusive temperament.

"Stand up for me, for my father I have something to ask you." Yang Xuan changed his usual connivance, and it was rare to teach a lesson with a straight face.

Yang Zhiyuan has been spoiled by his parents and grandparents so far, and he is no longer afraid of his father, and he is not angry at this time, he sat casually on the side, half-opened his eyes that did not wake up, pulled the empty teacup, and muttered: "Say something quickly!" ”

Yang Xuan's eyes widened, but he found that he couldn't scare this son for a long time, and years of doting had made his father's majesty disappear, so he had to soften his attitude, he sighed and said: "Son, our family is about to be in a catastrophe, do you know?" ”

These words made Yang Zhiyuan jump up from the chair with a spirit, he rubbed his eyes, and said in shock: "Dad, you won't rebel, right?!" ”

"Fart!"

Yang Xuan slapped the table and got up, and scolded: "You Lao Tzu and I are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, the sun and the moon can be revealed, and the heaven and earth can be learned!" Now that the country is peaceful and the people are living and working in peace and contentment, Lao Tzu is against it! ”

"Oh, that's good"

Yang Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, then sat back lazily, and said impatiently: "Dad, since you don't rebel, our family is backed by Jinyiwei, what can be a big disaster." ”

"The trouble lies with this brocade guard."

Yang Xuan sighed for a while, and he said: "Lord Meng is now promoted to Taifu, and it seems that his status is respected, but in fact, he has no real power, and Lord Meng's whereabouts are still unknown, and his father has visited Meng's Mansion several times, but he is not allowed to see him."

Yang Zhiyuan disagreed: "So what, although Lord Meng is gone, isn't there still Lord Lu?" ”

"You," Yang Xuan sighed again and shook his head, "This Lord Lu is not the same as Lord Meng, and it is too different."

Lu Hanjiang and Meng Yuan are indeed different, when Old Man Meng was in power, he was a person who clearly controlled every position in the court, and he was willing to mix with me, and he was promoted to the rank of official, and he was promoted hard, and if he was not willing to follow the mix, then he would suppress it hard.

The most important thing is that the old emperor, who has not been in the court for many years and hides in the harem to cultivate immortals, has clearly stated that he supports Meng Yuan, and even the three major factories in the inner palace have fallen to the old man at any time.

Therefore, the old man was able to quickly grasp the initiative of the court, and at that time, except for the diehards such as Old Master Luo who were unwilling to go along with the chaos, only Wen Kongheng, who commanded the forbidden army, could compete with him, but that's all.

When the old man was in power, he was really one person under ten thousand people, even if the opposition was not small, but he could not shake his foundation, and he could only fight a war of words to earn some face.

But now that Lu Hanjiang has come to power, he has changed the old man's tough policy of either friend or foe, but has adopted a series of indescribable guidelines.

Those who are willing to continue to take refuge in Jinyiwei, Commander Lu still welcomes it, and he is unwilling to follow him, and Commander Lu is too lazy to care, in a simple word, he loves to play and does not play rolling.

He didn't take the initiative, didn't refuse, and didn't take responsibility, and since Commander Lu succeeded him, Jinyiwei's influence in the court was quickly weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After all, the influence of a party does not depend on words, but on doing things, by pulling one faction to fight the other, and this is the case with the competition for the right to speak in the court.

When it was possible, it was all the officials under Meng Yuan's command who took a clear stand against the other side, and everyone was happy when they won the battle, and they were basically invincible when they lost the Jinyi Guard.

Now Lu Hanjiang is happy to be the shopkeeper, leaving a group of ministers in the court, and it is very unreasonable for Jin Yiwei to withdraw his hand.

At first, everyone was worried that they wanted to capture the old people, but later several court scolding wars provoked red eyes, and everyone didn't care about it, regardless of whether the Jinyi Guard was holding back or not, he killed one first.

After a few commotions, Old Master Luo finally raised his eyebrows, and the officials of the Jinyiwei faction were panicked.

Yang Xuan is a person who has taken refuge in Meng Yuan with a clear banner, but now that Jinyiwei has changed the person in charge, it seems that there is a sign that the sun is waning, and he has begun to mumble in his heart.

So, Yang Xuan spent a lot of saliva and told his son what he was worried about.

After Yang Zhiyuan listened, he waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Father, you are very wrong!" ”

"Presumptuous, how did you talk to Lao Tzu!" Yang Xuan scolded angrily at first, then calmed down again, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, you kid has a big tone, so let's talk about it, what is wrong with your father." ”

Yang Xuan got up and cleared his throat, and said: "Father, don't you hear about the old things of the king of Huayi, the so-called loyal ministers don't do the second king, and the virgin doesn't change the second husband, yesterday the brocade clothes were powerful, my Yang family relied on it, and now its decline, my Yang family will abandon it, my father is not afraid that in the future, the world will call my Yang family the Chaoqin and Dusk Chu, and joke that we are the slaves of the three surnames?" ”

"Bastard, that's how the Master taught you to quote scriptures!" Yang Xuan frowned: "Jinyiwei is the dog of the Son of Heaven, he shouldn't have reached out to the court, he succumbed to obscenity for his father, and the party attached himself to others, and now he is turning back to abandon the darkness and turn to the light!" ”

Yang Zhiyuan knelt down and persuaded bitterly: "Dad, what is the party attachment?" Jinyiwei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, what Lord Lu says is the meaning of the Son of Heaven, what Lord Lu does is the order of the Son of Heaven, our family is attached to Jinyiwei, this is allegiance to Your Majesty! ”

Yang Xuan was dumbfounded when he said this, only to hear Yang Zhiyuan continue to say bitterly: "Dad, Jinyiwei and Your Majesty are the same party, Lord Lu is an unparalleled loyal minister, and the so-called clear streams in the court who are tyrannical and power-hungry are all chaotic ministers and thieves, you can't be a false name and deal with real trouble!" ”

Yang Xuan stared at his son with wide eyes, and only sighed after a long time: "My son has already penetrated the essence of thick black, and it is better to be a father." ”

“.” Yang Zhiyuan's face fell, can this broken father still want it, is there such a burying of his own son.

After Yang Xuan sat down, he said in a deep voice: "You stand down and let your father think about it again." ”

"My son is leaving."

Yang Zhiyuan saluted and stepped back, and raised his head when he came out of the study, a bright moon hung high in the night sky, he seemed to be thoughtful, looked back at the figure pacing back and forth in the study, and couldn't help but sigh faintly.

At this moment, a cold wind blew, in the cold winter season, this demon wind was extremely frozen, he quickly shrunk his neck, and walked to his house in small steps.
