Chapter 220 Lao Tzu's son
Li Xiuqing got into the quilt and waited for Yang Ming quietly, the Yellow River at night was still very cold, but fortunately, there was always a stove in her quilt.
The stove is made of copper, because the copper dissipates heat quickly, and the furnace is filled with burnt cobblestone, and every two hours, a maid will come in to replace the stones in the furnace, so that the furnace always maintains a warm and suitable temperature, and the warm one is not hot.
After Yang Ming came in, Li Xiuqing's heart was pounding, and after the two maids changed Yang Ming's clothes, they retreated.
(This paragraph was deleted by the system, just saw it, let's reverie for yourself.) )
......
At noon the next day, the fleet arrived at Tuozhu Mountain, also known as Sanmenxia.
According to legend, in ancient times, there is a huge pillar mountain here, blocking the Yellow River waterway, so that the Yellow River can not pass smoothly, when Xia Yu ruled the water, the mountain was broken and the river was passed, so that the river water was divided into three streams, bypassing the pillar mountain, so there was a saying of "entering the pillar of the middle stream", and the idiom of the mainstay was derived from this.
These three divergent rivers are called the three gates of people, gods, and ghosts, which is the origin of the name of Sanmenxia.
In fact, there are many oversized reefs that crisscross the middle of the waterways, forcing the river to diverge through it.
The water here is turbulent, full of reefs, especially prone to accidents, the emperors of all dynasties have a headache about this, countless attempts to excavate, all in vain, until the founding of New China, blow up the three largest reefs of people, gods and ghosts, as well as many reefs around, and build the Sanmenxia Dam.
However, the pillar stone has been preserved to this day, because this reef, in the history of China is too famous, has a symbolic meaning beyond itself, now stands in the center of the Sanmenxia Dam, every lunar second month of the second day, is the temple fair of the pillar mountain.
Yang Ming's fleet has entered the turbulence of Pillar Mountain, which tests the sailors' boating skills and familiarity with the surrounding waters.
Where there are reefs, this is something they must know by heart.
On the plank road on the shore, there are already hundreds of people organized by the government waiting here, and the draft of the big ship is deep, and it needs to be slender.
There are not many slender men pulling forward, mainly pulling back to control the speed of the boat, because the current here is too fast.
It took half a day for the fleet to pass this natural danger without a single ship being damaged.
During this period, Yang Ming also saw the pillar mountain, which was actually not big, but it gave people a sense of shock and awe, like a god, blocking the middle of the treacherous and turbulent Yellow River.
Yang Ming breathed a sigh of relief, it was the first time he had passed through here, and it was not as easy as those sailors who had been sailing all year round.
At this point, the Yellow River is unobstructed, and within four days, Yang Ming will arrive in Heyang County.
.......
Capital
Yang Yue couldn't hide after all, and honestly asked people to open the door of the mansion and welcome the eldest princess Yang Lihua into the mansion.
He is indeed the absolute confidant of Emperor Yang Guang, but he is the emperor's own sister, and no one will stop him if they want to clean him up.
After Yang Lihua came in, she didn't say a word, just gave the guards behind her a look, and immediately three people stood up.
Two of them grabbed one of Yang Yue's arms and pressed him to the ground, and the other held a leather whip and came to Yang Yue's back.
Yang Xuangan stood with Jiajuan helplessly, not daring to say anything.
A guard brought a bucket of water, and the whip was dipped in water, and the gods couldn't get out of bed.
Yang Yue raised his head like ashes: "The minister is the edict of the first emperor......."
A whip of "snap" slammed into Yang Yue's back, and the latter screamed miserably, trembling violently.
"The eldest princess has mercy," Yang Xuangan hurriedly knelt down: "Uncle is seriously injured and has not recovered, so he can't bear such a heavy punishment." ”
Yang Lihua's face was expressionless: "Anyone who asks for mercy will be punished with him." ”
The corners of Yang Xuan's mouth twitched, and he didn't dare to speak anymore.
After a while, Yang Yue had already fainted, Yang Lihua stepped forward to take a look at the injury, and was generally satisfied, so she led everyone to leave.
Outside the gate, there were already a lot of people gathered to watch the excitement, and some of the sect disciples were even applauding and cheering, and they frequently coaxed.
"Hurry up, take my uncle and his old man in to take medicine,"
Yang Xuangan hurriedly asked a few of his brothers to help, and ordered the servants to close the door of the mansion.
As soon as Yang Yue was placed on the couch, he reluctantly opened his eyes and wailed in pain: "I finally got through it...... Ouch......."
In the Liangyi Palace, Yang Guang sat behind the dragon eucalyptus and flipped through the files, standing under the main hall, it was the prince Yang Zhao, Yu Wenshu, Lai Hu'er, Zhang Heng, Pei Yun, Yu Shiji, and Shangshu Right Emperor Fu Yi.
Shangshu Province, there are two positions, Shangshu Zuocheng and Shangshu Youcheng, which are the subordinate officials of the left servant and the right servant, who are mainly responsible for the administrative affairs of the province and have the right to supervise.
In the past, these two positions were often vacant, but after Yang Guang ascended the throne, he made Pei Ju the Shangshu Zuocheng, and promoted the Huangfu to be the Shangshu Youcheng.
Originally, there were eight subordinate officials on the left and right, but Yang Guang divided these eight people into six departments, and added one from each of the left and right Shilang to replace them.
Huangfu, also a big surname, originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty, derived from the surname Ji, and has three hall names: Jingzhaotang, Weiyuantang and Andingtang.
Huangfu discussed this person, who was a subordinate official of the Jin Dynasty and a close confidant of Yang Guang, and in history, he was responsible for repairing the Tongji Canal.
Yang Ming's letter had already been placed on Yang Guang's dragon eucalyptus, and after he finished reading it, he was worried and happy.
The worry is that his third son is really bold, and he dares to ask for this kind of thing.
Happily, father and son wanted to go together.
Yang Guang handed the song to Gao Ye, the chamberlain beside him, and Gao Ye handed it down for everyone to circulate.
After a short time, the song was put back into the dragon eucalyptus.
Prince Yang Zhao looked anxious and said, "Brother Ming, what are you going to do?" How dare he bring up such a thing? ”
The corners of Yang Guang's eyebrows moved, glanced at his eldest son, and then looked at everyone and said:
"What do you think?"
Yu Wenshu stood up and said: "Qin Wang Hutu, full of absurd words, even a three-year-old child knows that this matter will not work. ”
"Ridiculous?" Yang Guang frowned and said, "You mean, my son is ridiculous? ”
Yuwen Shu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly knelt down: "The minister is guilty, pray for your majesty's forgiveness." ”
Seeing this, Zhang Heng subconsciously glanced at Pei Yun on the side, and the two of them could see that the emperor seemed to think that King Qin's method was good.
Temporarily exempt slaves and maids from granting land for two years, which is aimed at the entire Kanto clan, and the resistance can be imagined.
As soon as he returned to the court, he heard that Yang Ming, the king of Qin, had a very high reputation in the center of the court, but unfortunately he had never met.
Yang Guang snorted coldly: "What my son said is all worried about the country, worried about me, Luoyang fortifications, insufficient food supplies, are you out, or am I out?" ”
Pei Yun hurriedly stood up and said: "What King Qin played, the words of governing the country, the minister thought that this policy could be implemented. ”
Yang Zhao was stunned, what are you doing here? With such a big event, how could he change his position because of his father's words? Isn't this a pit for my brother?
If this policy is implemented, the wealthy people in Kanto will inevitably regard Brother Ming as a thorn in their side.
"Father, this matter is very important, and it needs to be discussed more, Luoyang's supply must not be broken, but there may be other ways," Yang Zhao said.
Yang Guang sighed in his heart, if there is really another way, your brother will not use this method.
"What about Yang Yue? Why hasn't he healed yet? ”
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and none of them dare to speak.
Yang Guang frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”
In the end, it was Yang Zhao who stood up: "Back to my father's words, this morning my aunt led people to the Yue Gong's mansion and whipped Yang Yue, I heard that Yang Zhongshu couldn't get out of bed again." ”
Yang Guang shook his head helplessly, no wonder they didn't dare to say it one by one, it turned out to be about Sister A.
The death of the eldest brother Yang Yong, Sister A has always been haunted, knowing that she instructed Yang Yue to do it, but she deliberately pretended to be stupid and pointed her head at Yang Yue.
Although you are excusing yourself, you are making too much trouble.
That's it....... As long as she can get rid of her breath.
Without Yang Yue, a confidant, Yang Guang could only come by himself, so he said:
"The food problem in Luoyang is imminent, for the sake of livelihood, I really have no time to delay, so I will make slight modifications according to the performance of King Qin, and temporarily implement it in Henan for two years."
"Mao Shi (Yu Shijizi) drafted the will, and after I read it, it will be immediately transmitted to all parts of Henan to ensure the supply of Luoyang."
"The minister obeys the decree," Yu Shiji, the servant of the internal history, began to draft the holy decree.
"Also," Yang Guang suddenly looked at everyone: "Although this strategy is played by King Qin, Zhuqing must not spread it." ”
This sentence is equivalent to taking the initiative to take the pot for Yang Ming, and Lao Tzu blocked it for his son.
Yang Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief, after all, his father still sheltered Brother Ming.
After everyone left, Yang Zhao smiled and said:
"Although Brother Ming did not support his father in the matter of the canal, he was thinking about his father after all."
Yang Guang said: "Renshou Palace, without the third child, our family doesn't know what will happen, although this kid is a little stubborn, but he only needs to be corrected slowly, he can be on his own, I am still pleased." ”
As he spoke, Yang Guang's eyes looked his eldest son up and down, and he frowned:
"You seem to have gained a lot of weight, drink in moderation, and go out on horseback riding and hunting in your spare time, how fat do you look?"
"Yes, yes," Yang Zhao hurriedly said, "As soon as Erchen is free, he will go out of the city to play." ”
Yang Guang shook his head angrily: "The second child is also far away from me, messing with flowers and grass below, and doing nonsense, you have to take care of him." ”
Yang Zhao nodded and said, "I must persuade at that time." ”
Exempting slaves and maids, and granting fields to subordinates, such a big matter, Yang Guang did not go through the court meeting, but only discussed with a few henchmen, and then issued an edict.
When Su Wei Gao Gong and they knew, the holy decree had already been sent to Henan.
The power of Shangshu Province was greatly weakened after Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, and the six Shangshu were helpless about it.
It seems that whoever is close to the emperor can have more right to speak.
