Chapter 58
When Yu Donglai came out of the Imperial Study Room, his legs and feet were still a little weak, and when he recalled the words he had saved before, he produced a coolness like a falling ice cave from his heart.
"If anyone dared to hack the money again, I would slap his nine families. If the living person could not make up the number of nine families, I would stab his ancestral grave."
For so many years as an official, he was the first time to see his emperor so angry. I don't know if it was because the courtiers lied to him because of teaming up, or because of the robbed eight hundred frontiers and two thousand people. Therefore, the thought of Yu Donglai was even more scared. The lie fabricated by Hou Wenji was enough to avoid the heavy weight, and His Majesty was still angry to this point. If you know that the 800th Frontier was actually slaughtered by You Xiaowei ... who knows what kind of Thunder Fury will provoke?
That's right, Emperor Yang Yi of Tianyou is gentle and rarely blame his subordinates, but because of this, some people have forgotten that Tianwei is unpredictable. When the emperor felt that his prestige had diminished, he would certainly do something to make the courtiers regain respect and fear for him. At this time, there will always be a few unlucky ghosts. Even if they didn't do something wrong that was fatal, at least it was in their own cognition. But when His Majesty needs to kill, then what is wrong is no longer important.
It is important that His Majesty never relent when he thinks he should kill.
The officials in the court have been stable for a long time, and they have forgotten that the emperor ordered more than three years ago to kill the Qiu family who had rebelled against Jiang. That night, more than two thousand people were killed in Jiangdu City, and the three families of Jiangdu were almost razed to the ground in an instant.
Because these three families all supported the succession of the three princes, they spared no effort to help them. Today, Emperor Yang Yi is the lowest-key of the seven emperors of the time. Those who seem to be the least likely to inherit the throne sit in that supreme chair.
The emperor wanted to kill people, sometimes in a hurry, sometimes not in a hurry.
He waited for seven years to get started with the three families in Jiangdu, and it really moved like thunder. At that time, the Great Sui Zuo Weiwei was ordered to calm down Jiangnan's great thief Mao Feng, and went to the Jiangdu army to enter the city to supplement their supplies. In the evening, the family members of Jiangdu City gathered together to feast on Zuo Weiwei General Yang Shunchen and drink alcohol until midnight. General Yang Shunchen returned drunk. Everyone thought that with a banquet and a stack of silver tickets, he could get this argument and should be the general of the emperor cousin.
But in the middle of the night, Zuo Weiwei's 5,000 heavy infantry suddenly poured into the streets and alleys of Jiangdu, sealing the houses of the three great families of Jiangdu, and there was no sinful process at all. Armed to the teeth, the left soldiers Jing Jing soldiers rushed into the courtyards of the several families and killed when they saw someone. The wailing stopped until the day dawned, but the wailing had no meaning.
Overnight, blood flowed into the river.
In the early morning of the second day, General Yang Shunchen of Zuo Weiwei announced the guilt of the three great families of Jiangdu. One of the most shocking is ... colluding with the rebels to try to rebel. The three great families are headed by the founding heroes of the Great Sui Dynasty, a family of two men and five princes. Therefore, this big case is also called the Qiu Ni case.
It was also at this time that people suddenly came to their senses. Now that Yang Yi was able to take the throne, how could he be as gentle or even weak as it seems?
For courtiers, betrayal is always the bottom line. Once you hit this bottom line, the ending is actually doomed. Whether this betrayal is real or the emperor needs it.
The emperor killed someone, sometimes in a hurry, sometimes in a hurry.
Killing the three great families of Jiangdu, don't worry, the emperor waited for seven years, and slowly stripped off those who occupied important official positions in the DPRK. They were all placed in a seemingly important position without real power. When the emperor's design was difficult to know, such as Yin, seven years after Xu Rulin's layout, the thunderous one killed those who made him feel that he no longer needed to exist in the world. The reason for the killing is actually very simple, because the presence of these people made the emperor unhappy.
And now, the emperor was anxious to kill.
After Yu Dong came out for more than ten steps, he glanced back at Yu Shufang and shook his head with a bitter smile. While he was glad he had escaped, he still felt a kind of sadness in his heart. The servant minister of the Ministry of Defense is bound to die, and the day the emperor wanted him to die, he could not escape. And the emperor wanted to kill him, not from today.
Fan Gu's case was just an excuse for the emperor.
Just as he walked out a bit shyly, someone behind him suddenly called his name. Yu Dong glanced back and forth, seeing that the Ministry of Rites Shang Shuhuai, who had been sitting in the Royal Study Room just now, did not talk.
"Nostalgic, are you okay?"
Yu Donglai didn't dare to be a little disrespectful to the three patriarchs. Everyone knows that there were two special court officials and two emperor divisions in the court of the Sui Dynasty. With one article at a time, the writer is the old minister who sat in the book of the Ministry of Rites but never cared about the Ministry of Rites. The warrior is Zhou Banchuan, the director of Yanwuyuan.
Yu Donglai politely leaned slightly and performed a junior gift.
Huai Qiu Gong smiled and stroked his snow-white beard and said, "When I came, I came from the carriage of Lord Zheng of the Ministry of Commerce, and Lord Zheng was left to discuss important matters without my old fellow. Now, my old bone ca n’t go home by myself, so I have to sue my Majesty, and then hurry out to chase you. How about, do you have time to send me this old man home?
By the way?
The house of Yu Jiafu and the mansion of Huai Qiu Gong are basically two directions that run counter to each other.
But how could Yu Donglai not know that the old man who had a very heavy weight before him had something to say to himself?
He quickly held up Huai Qiugong's arm and said, "It's my luck to be able to invite nostalgia to my carriage!"
...
...
The wheels of the carriage rolled over the exposed surface of the flat bluestone, making a sound that made people sleep. Perhaps the age of Huai Qiu Gong was really too old, so after getting into the carriage from Yu Dong, he was a bit sleepy. He leaned against the inner wall of the soft carriage carriage covered with brocade cushions, and closed his eyes seemed to enjoy the slight shaking of the carriage.
Yu Dong came to know that since Huai Qiugong had stopped himself, he must have something to say to himself. So he was not in a hurry, so he picked up Jin on the side and gently covered Huai Qiu Gong's body.
This is a sign of urgency, but it is a means of urgency.
Sure enough, Huai Qiu Gong slowly opened his eyes and looked at the quilt on his body, and then smiled and thanked Yu Donglai for a glance and laughed at himself: "I am old, it seems like I am sleepy all day long. Just wait When I get down, I can't help but doze off. "
"How come, you are old when you are old."
Yu Donglai said with a smile.
"Where is it strong?"
Huai Qiugong mysteriously lowered his voice and said, "I haven't touched a woman for ten years. Where can you say that you can grow strong?"
This old man is sometimes really messy and cute.
As the most ceremonial etiquette Shangshu of Da Sui, he actually said such vulgar words in front of others. If it was known by the Manchu fighters, he would be afraid to startle his chin.
Yu Dong smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.
Fortunately, this disrespectful old man did not intend to continue on the topic of women. He pulled Jin Jin upwards and made it firmer.
"Donglai, have you been promoted to Shangshu for three years?"
Huai Qiu Gong seemed to ask casually.
"Three years, two months and six days."
Yu Donglai answered seriously.
"Life is really fast."
Huai Qiu Gong said with a smile, and said with a smile: "When I first saw you, you were just a soldier in the rank of six soldiers. In the blink of an eye, all these years passed, and I became a hero. Maokeng refused to move away from the old immortal, and you have changed from a young man full of ambition to a restrained and stable middle age.
Yu Donglai said humbly, "You are old, you are wrong."
"Donglai, you know, why is Your Majesty angry?"
Huai Qiu Gong, who was still talking about some boring things, suddenly asked.
Yu Dong came to me for a moment, sorted out the words in his head, and replied, "It's because I'm a courtier, let your Majesty be disappointed."
Huai Qiugong gave him a blank look and said, "This answer is quite satisfactory, but it is a falsehood."
Yu Dong smiled and did not deny it.
"The reason I got on your carriage was because I could spend time with you alone. Some things can't be known to others. You have been an official for many years and naturally understand what I mean."
Huai Qiugong looked at Yu Donglai and said lightly: "Since you and I are the only ones, let's just say ... Your Majesty is so angry today, indeed, it is because of the eight hundred guerrillas and two thousand that died in the battle. The surname is because of Li Xiaozong's unknowing guy, because of Li Yuanshan's self-righteousness, because of the military department and affectionate greed ... But in fact these are not the most fundamental reasons. Do n’t tell me, you still do n’t understand His Majesty What the is going on. "
"Because His Majesty is about to use troops in the Northwest."
Yu Donglai did not play Tai Chi this time, but answered truthfully.
"You haven't continued pretending to be stupid, otherwise I'll get off the bus and walk home by myself."
Huai Qiugong looked at Yu Dong and asked, "Then why do you say that your Majesty is going to use the Ministry of Defense?"
"Because Her Majesty did not want to hear any opposition in this incident. Hou Junci was already strongly opposed to the use of soldiers in the northwest, and even accused His Majesty of arrogant swordsmen in the chapel."
Huai Qiugong said seriously: "His Majesty is the King of Saint Ming, so even if there is an official in the court who speaks badly because of disagreement, His Majesty will not blame, but he will give more praise, right?"
"Correct!"
Yu Dong nodded.
"But the majesty of the emperor, how many people will remain in awe in the long run?"
Huai Qiugong breathed a long sigh of relief and said with some emotion: "Hou Junci is not unlucky, but he is an idiot ... Your majesty and listening to His Majesty is because His Majesty must do so. And His Majesty has many things It must be done, such as this time to mobilize troops in the northwest. Da Sui has experienced five emperors. Which one of UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com has not opened up territory? "
He paused and said, "Speaking of disrespect, it is His Majesty's attitude to behave, but those who are courtiers must not advance or retreat to correct their position. For example, I ... dare to have a small temper against His Majesty, Dare to stare at His Majesty, why? "
"Because I am an emperor and an emperor allowed by His Majesty. His Majesty must make a gesture of respect for the Master. I must cooperate with His Majesty. And Zhou Banchuan, the old guy also understands this truth. His Majesty allows us to rely on the old to sell the old. He is also happy to make people think that such a relationship between monarchs and ministers is fascinating. "
"But, does Your Majesty really dare not kill me, or dare to kill Zhou Banchuan?"
Huai Qiugong remained silent for a while and continued to say, "So, when I got into your carriage, I just wanted to tell you ... As a courtier, the first thing you need to do is to understand what kind of courtier you should be. That will please His Majesty. "
"Do you now know how to please Your Majesty?"
he asks.
Yu Donglai groaned for a while, then nodded and said seriously: "His Majesty may need a courtier who betrayed his colleagues. His Majesty also needs the Ministry of Defense to die a few more people. Therefore, I should think carefully after I return. How should the list of corrupt officials be drawn up. "
Huai Qiu Gong couldn't help laughing, and his face was relieved.
"That's not ruthless, it's righteousness."
He smiled and said, "What is righteousness? Be loyal to Your Majesty, make Your Majesty satisfied, solve His Majesty's problems, follow His Majesty's heart, and clarify the way of the King and Prince. The gentleman should be a gentleman, the villain should be a villain, and he should be a eagle Rabbits, when it ’s time to be a dog, wagging your tail is the greatest significance of being a courtier. "
Yu Dong came to sit up, and then gave a deep gift: "Thank you for your guidance."
