Ya Kannon raised his right hand, and the guards returned their swords into their sheaths, but they still glared at the followers. When the drinkers who came up to join in the excitement saw this scene, they were very bored, and they also put their knives back into their sheaths, glared at those Khitans, and went back to drink. Han Derang shouted at his entourage: "Put away all the knives!" Although the people were terrified, they obeyed the command and put away their swords.

Ya Yu Guanyin sat back in his seat, glanced at Han Derang, and sneered: "Han Derang, you are really good at it!" How dare you threaten me with my mother! ”

Han Derang said: "I would never dare to threaten the princess, I just said a fact. Although I would never dare to offend the concubine, what about Brother Yehugh? The princess must know better than I do that he will do whatever it takes to achieve his ends! If the princess doesn't act according to the intentions of the princess, the situation of the concubine will definitely not be better! ”

Ye Yu Guanyin said coldly: "You go back and tell Ye Hu Brother to let him die of this heart!" If he dares to be disrespectful to my mother, I will ask him to repay ten times as much! Then he stood up and left the restaurant.

Han Derang sighed and muttered with a blank expression: "I didn't expect the eldest princess to be so loyal to the Ming Emperor!" This is really unexpected! He had no intention of drinking, so he stood up, took out a silver ingot from his waist, threw it on the table, and led his entourage out of the restaurant.

In the evening of the same day, after lunch, just as Yang Peng and his wives and concubines were having fun in the imperial garden, a female guard rushed over with a letter. Yu reported: "Your Majesty, just now the palace gate guards received a secret letter from an unknown person. As he spoke, he handed over the letter in his hand.

Jiang Li walked over, took the letter, and looked at it. came to Yang Peng and handed the letter to Yang Peng.

Yang Peng took the letter and looked at the cover, which did not write anything. Raising his head, he asked the female guard, "Why didn't the palace gate guard leave the messenger behind?" The female guard said: "As soon as the man sent the letter, he quickly ran away, and the palace gate guards failed to react." ”

Han Bing said: "How mysterious and secretive, it's definitely not a good thing." ”

Zhao Jinxi said: "That's not necessarily, the person who sent the letter may be afraid of retaliation for his identity exposure!" Chai Yonghui frowned and said: "In our Daming, who can have such great power?" ”

Yang Peng opened the envelope, took out the stationery, and unfolded it to look at it. All the women looked at Yang Peng curiously, while the children were still playing in the distance, and the cheerful hustle and bustle was in stark contrast to the quietness here.

Yang Peng quietly folded the letter, put it back in the envelope, and put it in his arms. smiled and said to the women with a look of concern on their faces: "It's nothing. It should be that some ordinary people came to tell the truth after hearsay. When the women heard this, they couldn't help laughing.

Yang Erya said: "We haven't finished the game just now, let's continue." ”

Everyone laughed, and Yang Peng said loudly: "Okay, continue to play the game!" Han Bing stood up and walked to the big drum next to him, took the drumstick from the female guard, and said, "I'll play the drum." Several concubines applauded, but Yang Peng said suspiciously: "Han Bing, if you want to play the drums, don't you want to take revenge?" In fact, I can't help it during the day today, I can't control it! Han Bing blushed at the time, and the other concubines looked at Yang Peng and Han Bing with ambiguous expressions and mixed vinegar. Han Bing blushed and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense!" Could it be that His Majesty the Emperor Ming is still afraid of his concubines? Several concubines coaxed. Yang Peng glanced at the concubines and said with a smile: "Of course I'm afraid of you!" As the saying goes, a man who is afraid of his wife is blessed! The women laughed.

Han Bing said angrily: "Don't gossip anymore, let's continue to make games." Immediately waved the drumstick and beat the drum, Han Bing's demeanor and movement of beating the drum were really charming.

As soon as Yang Erya heard the sound of the drum, he immediately threw the Jinpa in his hand into the hand of Ya Yu Guanyin next to him. Ya Yu Guanyin chuckled, and then stuffed the brocade into the hand of Chai Yonghui next to him. At this time, Yang Peng suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute, wait a minute!" Han Bing stopped beating the drum, and the eyes of all the women glanced at Yang Peng. Yang Peng was looked at at by so many eyes with different styles but equally beautiful at the same time, and he had a feeling of being fascinated when he landed.

came back to his senses and said, "Han Bing can't beat the drum like this, it's not that he wants Jinpa to stop in whomever hand!" ”

Han Bing said angrily: "Then what do you say?" ”

Yang Peng said with a smile: "Han Bing has to cover his eyes with a handkerchief, it will be more interesting." The women's eyes lit up, and they only felt that this seemed to be more fun and exciting, and they applauded. At this time, Yang Rui, a restless little guy, led his younger brothers and sisters to run over and shouted, "We have to play too, we have to play too!" ”

Chai Yonghui showed a doting smile on his face and said, "Rui'er, you will mess around!" In our game, whoever holds the Jinpa when the drum stops is going to chant a poem or sing a song, can you? As soon as Yang Rui heard that she was going to chant poetry, she immediately shrunk her neck, pouted and said, "What's the meaning of chanting!" Han Bing said angrily: "That's the rule!" If you're brave, play with us! ”

Yang Rui was the most unprovoked, and after listening to Aunt Han Bing's words, she immediately jumped up like a cat with her tail stepped on, and shouted: "Who doesn't have the guts!" Come on! Yang Peng and several women laughed, and their expressions couldn't help but reveal a taste of pampering.

Yang Rui was the child king, and immediately waved his hand at his brothers and sisters, shouting, "Everyone come together!" The group of children nodded excitedly, and then each sat down next to their mother.

Han Bing took out his red handkerchief, glared at Yang Peng, folded the handkerchief a few layers, and then blindfolded his eyes. Yang Peng saw Han Bing's blindfolded appearance, and he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart. Han Bing picked up the drumstick, tapped the corner of the drum, and raised his voice: "Ready to start!" Then he waved the drumsticks with both hands, and the drums sounded again.

Jinpa was quickly passed in everyone's hands, although it was only a very simple game, but everyone felt very excited. Yang Rui received Jinpa from her mother and giggled. At this moment, the drumming suddenly stopped. Everyone's eyes looked at Yang Rui together, Yang Rui blinked a pair of stupid big eyes with a brocade hand, how cute it looked like, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Yang Rui pouted and said, "Why am I so unlucky!" ”

Han Bing, who was blindfolded, said with a smile: "Rui'er, the rule of the game is that when the drum stops, whoever is in the hand of Jinpa will chant poetry or sing." Will you sing a poem or a song? ”

Yang Rui was in trouble, "People don't know how to chant poetry!" Ya Yin Guanyin smiled: "If you don't chant poetry, then sing." ”

Yang Rui's eyes lit up, and she said loudly: "I sing!" I sing! Then he raised a pair of small hands and posed as a little tiger, and sang while jumping: "Two tigers, two tigers, run fast, run fast!" One without ears and the other without a tail, it's weird, it's weird! ......" Yang Peng and his wives and concubines couldn't help laughing when they saw Yang Rui's appearance so cute. Yang Rui danced and sang twice, and when she completed the task, she stopped and said loudly: "It's over!" ”

Amid the laughter of everyone, the drums continued to sound, and the Jinpa was passed quickly in everyone's hands. Suddenly, the drumming stopped. Everyone's eyes fell on Yang Peng's body, and it turned out that Jinpa stopped in his hand. Yang Rui clapped her palms and smiled; "Yes, yes! Daddy got Jinpa! When Han Bing heard Rui'er's words, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Big brother, this is heaven's will!" As the saying goes, you can't live if you do your own sin, even if I am blindfolded, the handkerchief will still reach you! ”

Yelu Hanyu smiled: "Is the eldest brother singing or chanting?" ”

Chai Yonghui said: "It's better to sing!" ”

Yang Erya smiled: "Then you have to sing a new song that has never been done before." The crowd applauded. Yang Peng glared at Yang Erya angrily. Yang Erya shyly hid behind Chai Yonghui. Chai Yonghui hugged Yang Erya, glared at Yang Peng, and said angrily: "Don't bully Erya's sister!" Everyone laughed, and Yang Erya was even more ashamed that she almost wanted to find a hole to get into.

Yang Rui raised her little hand and said loudly: "People want to hear Dad's story!" When she spoke, a group of children showed a look of longing, and Yang Xi and Xiao Zhaoyou echoed loudly.

Yang Peng pointed at Yang Rui and said with a smile: "Children want to listen to stories, I'd better tell stories." All the women glanced at Yang Peng, and they all looked like they were cheaper than you.

The scene fell silent, and the children's eyes widened as they stared at their father and told the story. Yang Peng cleared his throat and began to tell the story: "The story I want to tell today is that there was a mountain in the past, there was a temple on the mountain, there was a monk in the temple, he was telling a story, he was telling a story, there was a mountain in the past, there was a temple in the mountain, there was a monk in the temple, and the monk was telling a story......" The scene laughed, Yang Rui pouted and shouted: "Dad is too cunning!" No, no, no! ”

Yang Tong chuckled, glanced at Yang Peng with beautiful eyes, and said, "Big brother is not right, this storyteller is clearly the emperor, how did he become a monk!" ”

Everyone laughed, Zhao Jinxi glanced at Yang Peng charmingly, and said, "If Your Majesty becomes a monk, then what are we!" Could it be that they are all nuns? ”

Yang Rui interjected and said, "You're not right! If my father was a monk and my mother and aunts were nuns, how could we be there! Monks and nuns are not allowed to have children! Yang Peng was stunned for a moment and laughed.

All the women were stunned, but they all laughed, and they all leaned back and fell back with laughter. But the children are confused, they don't know what the adults are laughing at, what's so funny? Chai Yonghui couldn't help laughing, hugged Rui'er into his arms, and said with pity and annoyance: "Don't talk nonsense at the children's house!" ”

Yang Rui stopped doing it and protested: "Mother, I didn't talk nonsense!" Monks and nuns can't have children in the first place! ”

Chai Yonghui couldn't help but slap his daughter's head lightly, and said angrily: "Don't say it!" Yang Rui stopped talking, but her stomach was still full of question marks.

The night passed in such a cheerful atmosphere.

In the dead of night, Yang Peng came to the bedroom of Ya Yu Guanyin. When the female officials and palace maids saw Yang Peng coming, they all retreated in interest.

Yang Peng saw Ye Yu Guanyin standing on the balcony in front of her, the night breeze caressing her hair, and she really had an ethereal beauty that wanted to ride the wind.

Walking to Ye Yu Guanyin's side, Ye Yu Guanyin found that Yang Peng was coming, and was a little taken aback, and said angrily: "Scare me!" ”

Yang Peng looked at the noisy and bright city outside the palace and asked, "Something?" Ya Yin Guanyin shook her head, but the look between her eyebrows completely revealed her mood.

Yang Peng glanced at Ye Yu Guanyin, reached out to hold her hands, and said softly: "We are husband and wife, no matter what happens, my husband and I are your strongest support!" Don't carry it alone, tell me! Ya Yu Guanyin couldn't help but feel weak emotions in her heart, and buried the whole person in her lover's chest, feeling her lover's broad chest and strong manly atmosphere, and most of the original troubles disappeared in an instant. He muttered, "During the daytime today, Han Derang came to see me. "frowned," he conveyed the meaning of Brother Ye Hugh, asking me to speak more for the Liao Kingdom. I turned him down. But he threatened me with my mother! ”

Yang Peng frowned and said, "The mother-in-law is in their hands, I can't do anything with them!" ”

Ya Yu Guanyin raised his head and looked at his lover's face, his eyes were full of emotion, and then he said decisively: "Big brother is a big hero, and he shouldn't be tied hand and foot by these things." The Liao State has just experienced a coup d'état, although Ye Hugo did a good job and did not cause any civil strife, but the people's hearts must be unstable, and it is a good time for the Northern Expedition to the Liao State! The eldest brother is a hero of the world, and he should sweep away the eight wildernesses and dominate the world, achieve unprecedented feats, and lay an indestructible foundation for an incomparably brilliant dynasty! ”

Yang Peng looked down at Ye Yu Guanyin, smiled slightly, and said self-deprecatingly: "I have long said that I am not a Ming Jun, so I will not create a brilliant dynasty at the expense of my mother-in-law!" Ya Yin Guanyin's heart was moved, and he wanted to say something. But Yang Peng had already lowered his head and kissed her red lips. Ya Yu Guanyin has a lingering love in her heart, and her eyes look at her lover with tenderness.

Yang Peng let go of Ye Yu Guanyin's red lips and said softly: "I've already decided, don't say it anymore!" ”

Ya Yin was grateful for the bliss, and then infinite tenderness erupted like a volcano, and suddenly hugged her lover's neck, put her red lips and kissed it bitterly. It's like a wildfire! Ye Yu Guanyin ripped off Yang Peng's clothes, kissed Yang Peng's lips all the way, and finally ....... This night, Ya Yu Guanyin was extremely wild, and even Yang Peng almost couldn't bear it. ……

In a cheerful atmosphere, the Ming army and people finally ushered in the New Year. On this day, the snow was falling, the fire trees and silver flowers were everywhere in Bianliang, and the cheerful hustle and bustle resounded in the sky. In the main hall of the imperial palace, envoys from various countries met with His Majesty Emperor Yanyun.

This day was happy for the people, but it was extremely busy for Yang Peng.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yang Peng was not idle, and the annual meeting was held in the palace. At the meeting, votes were taken on many major issues and personnel arrangements. It is worth mentioning that at the plenary meeting of the Cabinet, a proposal by Tang Shidian was adopted, a proposal for the war of the Liao State. Yang Peng actually disagreed with this, but this proposal was passed at the plenary session of the cabinet. This is symbolic, showing that the power of the cabinet truly transcends the imperial power. Yang Peng was both worried and relieved about this, and there were some losses, and the worry was naturally about the safety of Ya Yu Guanyin's mother and Wang Jun, and he was relieved that the goal he had been working hard for had finally taken shape. Of course, as an emperor who once had all the power in one, it is inevitable that there will be some loss.

When the cabinet saw that His Majesty's opposition to the proposal had been passed, they were surprised and worried. After seeing His Majesty say that the cabinet's family resolution is sacrosanct, they can't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then they can't help but admire it from the bottom of their hearts. Although Yang Peng has now built a structure according to his own intentions, Yang Peng's own prestige cannot be surpassed and restricted by any system, and if Yang Peng wants to destroy these structures and veto the cabinet's resolutions, he can actually do it completely. However, the result of such selfishness will not only put the ancient country of the East back on the old path of the cycle of chaos, but I am afraid that it will also completely destroy the country's confidence in getting rid of the imperial system.

The foreign policy was decided at the annual meeting, and in general, it was to focus on all-out war against Liao, and at the same time to carry out trade with other countries in friendly coexistence. To this end, Yang Peng and his Excellency ordered the 100,000 troops directly under Duan Zhixian to be transferred back to the north from the north of Bagan, and the military government troops in the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, Datongfu Road, Taiyuan Road, and Ningxia Road were fully mobilized, and the civilian army also entered a state of three-level combat readiness. Yang Peng was authorized by the cabinet to serve as the commander of the Northern Expedition and was in charge of all matters of the Northern Expedition. When Yang Peng was away, Han Bing stayed in Bianliang to supervise the country.

In terms of internal affairs, we will continue to intensify the construction of bridges and pave roads, and comprehensively promote the new technologies invented by the ordnance yard to civilian production; Approved the plan to build the Haitang dredging canal and the Yellow River, and made Zuo Mou the special minister in charge of the most massive project since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the head of the Ministry of Supervision, Huang Qiaoyun, would personally supervise the implementation of this project; The implementation of new reforms aimed at promoting trade and commerce in order to achieve further rapid economic growth was the elimination of many of the formalities that used to require government approval, the removal of all tariff barriers between the country's regions, and the reduction of customs rates.

The reform of the system for selecting government officials may be the most shocking to the people. The emperor and the cabinet decided that in all localities except Ningxia, Tubo, Bagan, Dali and Dhaka, the system of universal suffrage of chief officials should be implemented from the prefecture level and below, and the people in each region could elect the chief official of their choice, and those who thought they were capable could go to the local election yamen to register, but this was not unconditional, and only locals who had received at least 5,000 signatures were eligible to register; In addition, those who commit fraud will be severely punished in accordance with the law. As soon as this system was introduced, it caused a great shock among the people, and the vast majority of the people felt that they really seemed to be the masters of the country; Of course, resentful people are indispensable, those Confucian widows, originally expected that Yang Peng would one day change his course and return to the right path, but he didn't expect him to go farther and farther, this is simply a crooked and evil way that deviates from the scriptures and is inverted! While they were extremely disappointed, their hatred for Yang Peng and the entire Ming Dynasty deepened.

In terms of education, Yang Peng plans to further increase the proportion of education on his modern knowledge, and at the same time further increase the coverage of government education in various localities, so that within the new year, all cities above the county seat level in the Central Plains and all cities above the state level in Ningxia and other places will be completely covered. With regard to universities, many details were further clarified, and the distribution system was also clarified. University students are still distributed by the government, and the electoral system that will be fought at the grassroots level will basically not affect the distribution system of college students. However, the distribution of students at all levels will be clarified, and a special agency will be set up to be responsible for the distribution of students at all levels.

With regard to the state-run sector, it has been decided to auction off all those industries that are difficult to produce on a large scale to private individuals, and in the future, the state-run sector will only control those industries that have a bearing on the national economy and the people's livelihood and can carry out large-scale factory production.

At this annual meeting, a proposal proposed by Zhang Xiaocun made Yang Peng depressed. He even came up with a proposal for the draft. He said: "Even if we can't say that the strength of our Ming Dynasty today exceeds that of the Tang Dynasty, it is not inferior. But in such a prosperous world, His Majesty's harem still seems very empty, which is really incompatible with His Majesty's identity! Therefore, the minister proposed to conduct a nationwide draft this year to enrich His Majesty's harem! As soon as these words came out, Duan Zhixian and the others laughed and coaxed, while Han Bing and the others glared at Zhang Xiaocun with annoyance.

Yang Peng waved his hand and said angrily: "My wife has enough, I can't bear it again!" ”

Zhang Xiaocun glanced at Han Bing and the others, and said to Yang Peng with a smile: "This is not exactly looking for a concubine for Your Majesty, that is also the face of our Da Ming!" Like now, it's going to make people laugh! ”

Yang Peng scolded: "It's a joke! ”

Duan Zhixian coaxed: "I think let's vote on this matter!" ”

Yang Peng glared and scolded: "You are a fake monk!" What a coax! This is a national event, and it will be voted on! ”

Duan Zhixian smiled and said: "The eldest brother is the emperor, and the affairs of the emperor's family are national affairs!" The crowd was in an uproar. Zhang Xiaocun struck while the iron was hot and said loudly: "I formally propose to vote on the matter of the draft for His Majesty!" ”

As the host, Jiang Li immediately raised her voice; "Mr. Zhang has officially put forward a proposal for a vote! If you agree to vote on this matter, please show your hand. There was an uproar, and most of the people raised their hands.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
