Chapter 294: The King of the River
After Yang Ming left from the Guanwang Mansion, Yang Xiong immediately sent someone to the Shengdao Fang where Yan Xiaotang was, and it was not until he saw Yang Ming's motorcade enter the Li Fang that he hurriedly returned to the Guanwang Mansion to resume his life.
Yang Xiong definitely didn't dare to send someone to follow Yang Ming, so he could only take a step in advance to see if Yang Ming would go tonight.
After getting an affirmative answer, Yang Xiong was very happy, only to feel that dealing with Yang Ming was so worry-free, just wake up a little, and the latter would know what he was talking about.
The granddaughter is a concubine, and it seems that her status is low, but what if Yang Ming can successfully become the crown prince? That's a big difference.
When the time comes, for her own face, her granddaughter's position will not be very low.
To treat Yang Ming's back injury, she definitely needs medicinal materials, but Yan Xiaotang doesn't have them here, so she wrote a prescription and asked the royal palace to run and catch the medicine.
Zhu Sanli, who was in charge of catching the medicine, also specially asked what the medicine contained in the prescription on the counter of the pharmacy was used for.
The owner of the medicine cabinet told him that it was used for trauma, blood circulation and blood stasis, and Zhu Sanli was relieved.
It is very time-consuming to boil medicine, Yang Ming's back injury has always been applied externally with boiled head decoction, but Yan Xiaotang's method is different, she pounds all the medicinal materials into thin pieces, pounds them into a lake-like shape, and then applies them directly externally.
In the room, Yan Xiaotang slowly took off his shirt after getting Yang Ming's consent, looking at the scar on Yang Ming's back, Yan Xiaotang was shocked.
"Your Highness is tolerant, the folk girl needs to chew it with her mouth before applying the medicine, if Your Highness minds, I don't need to use my mouth," Yan Xiaotang said behind his back.
Yang Ming was stunned and said, "Why do you still have to chew?" ”
"Because the pounding is not broken enough, only by chewing more in the mouth can the innermost medicinal juice be chewed out," Yan Xiaotang said.
Yang Ming smiled: "Okay, just follow your local method." ”
"It shouldn't be a dirt law, right? This is a famous doctor in Youzhou," Yan Xiaotang said with a smile: "Your Highness, please come to stay." ”
Yang Ming nodded, came to the bed and lay down, and then saw the other party grab a ball of broken medicine and put it in his mouth, and in an instant, Yan Xiaotang's whole face was stimulated by the smell of medicine, and it was deformed.
Obviously, she was working hard to persevere, and Yang Ming looked bitter.
After a while, Yan Xiaotang spit the medicine into the palm of his hand, then came to the side of the bed and gently applied it to Yang Ming's back.
It was cool and comfortable.
"Your Highness's injury, it will take at least half a month of medication to completely scab over, and when the scab is over, there is no need to use any more medicine," Yan Xiaotang said softly.
Yang Ming snorted.
Yan Xiaotang continued: "Wait for Your Highness to sleep tonight, if you wake up tomorrow and feel that the medicine works well, can you allow the people to continue to serve Your Highness in the next half month?" ”
"Let's see," Yang Ming said casually, and Yan Xiaotang's face obviously flashed with disappointment.
Next, according to the steps just now, Yan Xiaotang applied medicine to every injury on Yang Ming's back.
"Wait for half an hour, and the folk girl will clean up the medicine foam for His Highness," Yan Xiaotang said.
Yang Ming still hummed, he was a little drowsy, especially in this position now, which helped to increase sleepiness.
Yan Xiaotang was guarding on the side.
When Yang Ming woke up, the medicinal foam on his back had been cleaned up, and in the misty lake, he asked:
"What time is it?"
"Back to His Royal Highness, I just reported the change outside, it's time for the child," Yan Xiaotang didn't feel sleepy at all, and the whole person was still very energetic.
Yang Ming got up, stretched his waist, and began to get dressed, Yan Xiaotang saw this and said curiously:
"Your Highness is leaving?"
"Or else?" Yang Ming said.
Yan Xiaotang lowered his head and said: "Actually, Your Highness doesn't need to go, it's snowing outside." ”
After Yang Ming got dressed, he said, "I'm not used to living outside. ”
With that, he pushed the door open and exited.
Chen Kui and Su Lie, who were guarding outside, had white heads and shivered from the cold.
Today, Yang Ming's visit to the Ascension Workshop, Wu Houwei all knew, and at this time in the past, the guards in charge of guarding had long since known where to hide and go to warm up.
But today is different, if King Qin doesn't come out, they don't dare to be lazy.
So as soon as Yang Ming's convoy moved, the news had already spread, and Wu Houwei, who was originally squatting on the ground or hiding in a sheltered corner, rushed into the main street, pretending to patrol.
Wherever Yang Ming's motorvoy passed, there were guards standing solemnly on both sides of the street, and everyone held torches high to light the way forward for the convoy.
In the absence of the emperor, Yang Ming is the largest mountain in Beijing.
The hussar general Liang Shidu, who happened to be on duty tonight, guessed that King Qin was going back to his home, so he hurriedly recruited people to clear the snow on the road where Yang Ming had to go home.
Shengdaofang is located in the south of the city, next to the east gate of Daxing Yanxing Gate, the security of this place is not good, because it is close to the city gate, there are many people and many thieves.
Liang Shidu used to make a fortune on this, but now, he must take care of the law and order, don't make any money, and be pushed down by King Qin.
Because he knew who lived in that house.
Most of this woman is about to take the position, and there can be no problems with the security of the Daofang in the future.
So after seeing Yang Ming's convoy leave, he urgently recruited his henchmen and began to arrange, and tomorrow, he carried out a sweep in Shengdaofang.
All those whose household registration is unknown, those who steal chickens and dogs, and those who have criminal records will be driven away.
.......
The next morning, after the meaningless court meeting was over, Yang Ming went to the Hejian Palace with Yang Xiong, the king of Guan.
Yang Hong is a person who completely relies on his cousin Yang Jian to get to such a prominent position today.
His grandfather Yang Aijing is the brother of Yang Jian's grandfather Yang Zhen, he lived in Yecheng, the former capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty when he was a child, because at that time Yang Jian and his father Yang Zhong were already in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Later, when the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed Qi, he entered Guanzhong and took refuge with his cousin Yang Jian, who was cited as a confidant, and so far he has soared.
The Yang family clan, in the Kaihuang period, was the most respected by Yang Shuang, the king of Wei, after all, he was Yang Jian's younger brother, but the highest prestige was Yang Xiong, because of his outstanding ability, and Yang Hong was next.
Don't look at Yang Hong is a two-character king, not as high as King Cai Yang Zhiji's title, but Yang Zhiji is the lord of the attack, and his father Yang Cheng is the first King Cai, Yang Jian's second brother.
In the palace, Yang Ming saw the sick Yang Hong, just looking at the other party's current appearance, if he can get through it, he will get through it, if he can't get through it, he is afraid that he will hang up.
This is really a new life, the old people are dead, how many big people have died this year?
"Uncle, lie down, don't have to get up," Yang Ming hurriedly stepped forward and helped Yang Hong, who was about to get up.
Yang Hong gasped and said: "The body bones are not good, I don't know if I can survive this winter." ”
"Don't be presumptuous, you're not very old," Yang Xiong sat down on the side with a heavy face, and said, "When King Qin heard that you were sick, he hurriedly pulled me here, how did you expect that you were so seriously ill?" ”
"Alas....... Who knows, if you say that you are sick, you will be sick, and there was no sign at all before, but now it is not as good as day by day," Yang Hong said.
He had already guessed what Yang Ming was doing.
But he also knew that he was useless, even if he survived this winter, his illness would not be enough to support him to continue to participate in court politics, so he would be a useless person to Yang Ming.
I'm afraid that when the other party sees his appearance, he won't say what he was going to say anymore.
Yang Xiong also thought so, he thought that Yang Ming would leave after a few polite words.
Unexpectedly, Yang Ming seemed to open the chatterbox, chatting with Yang Hong in full swing.
After a while, Yang Hong glanced at Yang Xiong, then looked at Yang Ming again, and said with a smile:
"The people of our generation are all old, and His Highness thinks that there is anyone else in the clan who is up to the task?"
Yang Ming said with a smile: "All the sons and daughters can be, and those who have talents are placed in places where they can use their talents, such as the eleven temples of Shangshu Province or foreign places, and those who are not talented will go to the military government." ”
Yang Xiong and Yang Hong glanced at each other and nodded secretly.
Because since Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, it seems that he is deliberately alienating the clan, and many important positions have no part in the clan.
Shangshu Province is even more miserable, there are thousands of people, and only Yang Gongren has a surname Yang.
There are many reasons for this, first of all, because Yang Guang is not in the right position, he is afraid that someone in the clan will come forward and support Yang Xiu, the king of Shu who is still alive.
As for Yang Liang, the king of Han, when Yang Ming was in Luoyang, he had already hung up, claiming that he had died of illness, and no one would know what the truth was.
Moreover, the blood relationship between Yang Guang and Yang Xiong, Yang Hong and others is too thin.
In the past, when Guozuo was founded, Yang Jian had to appoint the clan to consolidate the imperial power, but in Yang Guang's generation, he felt that he could completely ensure the stability of the throne by himself.
Therefore, on the side of the clan, there are many princes, but most of them have no real power, and they are not as good as Queen Xiao's maiden family.
This infringed on the interests of Yang Xiong and others, so they put their hopes on the late crown prince Yang Zhao, but Yang Zhao also hung up.
This is really worse.
So next, whoever can guarantee the interests of the clan will support whoever the clan side will support.
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, although Yang Guang intends to suppress the power of the clan, but you really can't get around them if you want to do this kind of thing.
Yang Hong next, he tried again again, and finally said slowly:
"His Royal Highness is sympathetic to the clan, which reminds the old man of Prince Yuande, when the prince was alive, he treated the clan quite kindly, but it's a pity to ......"
Yang Hong said, Yang Xiong also sighed for a while, Yang Zhao's death was undoubtedly a heavy blow to them.
Next, the three chatted for a while before Yang Ming got up to say goodbye.
After Yang Ming and Yang Xiong left, they seemed to return to their respective homes, but in fact, Yang Xiong returned to the Hejian Mansion after going around in a big circle.
Previously, Yang Hong quietly gave him a look, and Yang Xiong understood.
Yang Xiong, who returned to the Hejian Palace, saw the sickbed and asked:
"How?"
Yang Hong nodded: "Don't look at what he says, look at what he does, this son is deep, it's hard to guess, although King Qi is evil, he may not understand the world, whoever gives the most benefits, we will support whom." ”
Yang Xiong was stunned and said: "You dare to bet on Yang Jun, you are bold enough?" ”
"It's just about things, not about people," Yang Hong said with a smile.
Yang Xiong snorted coldly and stopped talking.
