After the great chaos, Cui Mintao made a great contribution to every policy issued by the imperial court, and a servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs did more than Shang Shu's servant.

Anyone can see that Pei Yun, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, is already empty, and it is only a matter of time before he is taken down.

Isn't Pei Yun clear in his own heart? It is very clear, because the energy of people's lives is spent on speculating on the minds of leaders.

He was more prescient than anyone else, and he knew that the prince had not moved him because there was no suitable place to settle him.

As soon as there is a vacancy, he will immediately have to get out of the civil department.

The situation in the court is like this, you are sitting in a certain position, there must be a reason, and the same is true for leaving, Pei Yun will not feel unconvinced, there are eight seats in Shangshu Province, and there are no narrow-minded people.

"Instead of the prince opening his mouth, it is better for you to take the initiative to resign," Shangshu Province, Pei Ju called Pei Yun and whispered.

Pei Yun nodded: "What my brother said, my brother has already considered it, but he just resigned from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, where can I go?" Yang Gongren of the Ministry of Officials, Yang Xuangan of the Ministry of Rites, Lai Hu'er of the Ministry of War, Wei Xuan of the Criminal Department, and Yan Bi of the Ministry of Works, which one can't be my turn? Going to Eleven Temple? Isn't that a downgrade? I don't want to let it out. ”

Pei Ju said with a smile: "At such a critical moment, I will not let you leave the center, open up the wasteland and Tuntian, and the prince will hand it over to Si Litai for supervision, but that Yang Xun is not as good as Yang Yue after all, the constitution in the Taiwan is a mess, the prince has reprimanded him many times, what about you, you have the experience of Da Suo Maung Yue in Hebei before, and you can take care of the Tuntian matter, it is the best." ”

Yushitai, Zhizhitai, and Silitai are collectively called the three Taiwans, which are all judicial supervision institutions, and Silitai is a state-level zhengfawei with very great authority.

Because his duty is to inspect the inside and outside of Gyeonggi, it is the number one nightmare for local officials.

Pei Yun nodded and said, "I understand, my brother wants me to be in the place, find out the Yang family's sore feet, and then attack it fiercely." ”

Pei Ju said with a smile: "Hongnong Yang's power in the local area is intertwined, and there are countless things that violate the law, some of them are found out, and they don't hurt or itch, but some of them can kill them, and the prince now attaches the most importance to the field system and grain administration, you have to pay more attention to this aspect." ”

Pei Ju nodded, and said with a solemn face: "Brother, is he a little too anxious?" There are too many meritorious people on the Yang family's side, most of them are the prince's henchmen, and now they are fighting, for fear of making the prince unhappy. ”

Pei Ju sighed: "Yang Yue is dead, Yuwenshu is dead, Shi Wansui is also dead, and now Cui Zhongfang and Xu Shanxin are also fast, how long do you think I can last?" If I suddenly fail, will you be able to carry it? ”

The successor of the head of the family after Pei Ju is undoubtedly Pei Yun, but Pei Yun's ability does not play much role in the country, and he is a capable minister, but he is far from being an indispensable weapon of the country.

Then it is not easy for such a person to stand firm, not to mention that the Yang family will not let him stand firm.

After all, Pei Ju couldn't have known that he could actually live to be eighty years old and have nine years to live, he was two years younger than Yu Wenshu and one year older than Shi Wansui.

Therefore, in Pei Ju's view, his life has already entered the countdown, and he may die at any time due to a serious illness.

"Today's situation is that the arrow has to be sent, if you don't fight, the Yang family will collapse us sooner or later," Pei Ju said: "People are in the game, and we can't help ourselves, we are originally chess pieces, but chess pieces also want to survive." ”

Pei Yun sighed and sighed.

The crux of the problem lies in the fact that Pei Shuying has been the crown princess, Yang Jin is also orthodox, and her nickname is Ruyan, among Yang Ming's sons, only Yang Rui and Yang Jin are princes, and the others are county kings, and the Pei family has the ability to fight with the Yang family.

A situation has taken shape in which the two tigers are competing with each other.

Because Yang Jin has already threatened Yang Rui, even if Pei Ju gives up now, after Yang Rui goes up, the Yang family will find a way to clean them up.

This is a dead knot, and the chess player Yang Guang is also.

"The prince is in the Hall of Great Causes, you go now, while the prince is angry with Yang Xun, open your mouth at this time, and get twice the result with half the effort," Pei Ju said.

He counted people's hearts to death, and all his plans were on a single count, with a meticulous layout and no leakage.

The only drawback is that he is too anxious, but there is no way to do this, after all, Pei Ju is too old.

Yang Ming never thought that he was smarter than these people in the center, in fact, he was very afraid, and dealing with these people was like sitting on pins and needles.

So Pei Yun's sudden resignation, Yang Ming's mind was confused.

Please resign from a book, how bold is this? Does Pei Yun have the courage? Yes, but now that there is no place to settle down, why did he choose this time?

"Why?" Yang Ming pretended to be confused and said: "How difficult it is to have a major civil affairs event, such an extraordinary period, Gu Wan will not allow it." ”

Pei Ju said: "The minister is not a talent of civil affairs, although he does his best, he is still unable to do it, Cui Mintao is a national scholar, and the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are at ease. ”

Empress Xiao nodded with a look of relief and said: "The virtue of the Qing is a model for courtiers, but Cui Mintao is just a virtuous minister, and the prestige and virtue of the public are beyond his reach, and the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs still require you to preside over the overall situation." ”

What Yang Ming said just now was polite words, and Queen Xiao was telling the truth.

Because Pei Yun must have befriended Queen Xiao at the same time as Yang Guang, so he is half of his own person on Queen Xiao's side.

Pei Yun hurriedly said modestly: "In the heart of the minister, there is only one loyal word, the talent of the end, and it is already a shame to be favored by His Majesty and the crown prince, how dare you force yourself to occupy an important position now, and prevent the virtuous from ascending to the throne, please allow the queen and the crown prince." ”

Yang Ming looked at Empress Xiao and said: "Si Litai Yang Xun, more than sleek, lack of prestige, repeatedly delaying major events, Pei Yun is experienced in inspecting the field administration, and now the government of opening up the wasteland has begun to be implemented in the local area, and a great talent is needed to supervise the affairs." ”

"Aren't there fifteen overseers?" Empress Xiao wondered.

Yang Ming said with a smile: "The supervision envoy also needs to be supervised, people are in the place, the sky is high and the road is far away, the court can't see it, Si Litai wants to keep an eye on them for the court." ”

It is very terrible that the rights are not supervised, although the fifteen supervision envoys are under the direct jurisdiction of Yang Ming, but these people must also be restrained, and Si Litai is the most suitable, and the two contain each other, which is in line with the interests of the country.

Empress Xiao nodded: "Tuntian's reclamation has never been a trivial matter, it is a matter of national capital, you really have to be cautious, what do you mean, let Pei Yun go to Silitai?" ”

"That's right," Yang Ming nodded and said: "Yang inquires about the posture of the adjutant, it is difficult to take on a heavy responsibility, his son is worried about this matter, Pei Yun is like this, and he immediately relieves his worries." ”

Pei Yun sighed in his heart, his brother Pei Ju is really too awesome.

Can you count that? This bit of wisdom of oneself is really a little clever in front of others.

The size of an official position depends on the period, the previous division of the platform, that's it, go to the place, who can you do? Which bird at the county guard level are you?

But now it's different, the prince is determined to rectify the grain system of the field, and no one dares to make a mistake in this limelight, so Si Litai's power will be infinitely magnified.

In fact, it is much more arrogant than the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

"Okay, then let's do it," Empress Xiao nodded.

Su Lie's recent life has not been easy, of course, it is not from the imperial court, but from his daughter-in-law.

His daughter-in-law Pei Shu blows the wind in his ears all day long, saying that the credit for the expedition to Goguryeo and capturing Gao Dayang alive is rumored in the market that Yang Yuanqing gave it to Su Lie.

Su Lie wasn't angry, he was just tired of such rumors.

He will not resent Yang Yuanqing, because he understands the other party, and people will not take this kind of credit to heart, whether it is for Yang Yuanqing or not, it doesn't matter.

But after this kind of public opinion spreads, it will naturally have a little impact on Su Lie's prestige.

Capturing Gao Dayang alive, there is nothing to talk about, Su Lie and Yang Yuanqing were chasing each other together, Yuanqing was a lifelong friendship with Su Lie, and he knew that the prince had the intention to let Su Lie get ahead, so in the end, the credit was attributed to Su Lie alone.

In fact, it is understandable that either of them will receive this credit.

The Yang family's side was also very angry, they were working with the Pei family, and they were never willing to involve Su Lie, so they were also trying to suppress such remarks.

Yang Yuanqing even pointed out that this was a rumor in front of many people in Luoyang Building, and capturing Gao Dayang alive had nothing to do with him.

What the main lord said himself, it stands to reason that it should have an effect, but no, because there is a sentence in the rumor, which is that the reason why Yuanqing gave up his credit was against the prince, after all, Su Lie was the absolute henchman of the prince.

So the more he depicted it, the darker it became, and Su Lie was annoyed.

"I'm a special mother, someone is stirring up our brotherly relationship," Yang Yuanqing came directly to the door, scolding and scolding.

Su Lie smiled: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, and Yuanqing doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

"How can you not be angry?" Yang Yuanqing said angrily: "I'm so angry these days, let's risk our lives to go into battle to kill the enemy, but we have to be slandered by this rumor, who can endure this?" ”

Su Lie laughed, raised his glass and bumped into Yuan Qing.

The only thing he cares about in his heart is Yang Ming's opinion of him, and the rest don't care.

Doesn't Su Lie know that he married a girl from the Pei family, and he has been invisibly involved in the dispute between Yang and Pei?

People know it well, so they stay neutral.

He and Li Jing can't change their position, their position is on Yang Ming, if the two of them are also involved, this matter will be a big deal.

Then you have to die, because Yang Ming will never allow it, Li Jing and Su Lie will be co-opted away, this is his reverse scale.

Whoever does this will die.

So for the first time, Su Lie sternly warned his wife not to talk to him about this kind of thing in the future, otherwise you should go back to your mother's house.

Pei Shu was also frightened, because people who have always been gentle are very terrifying once they get angry.

Crawling out of a pile of dead people like Su Lie, his own aura is very terrifying, and ruthless people can't stand his eyes, let alone a woman.
