The murmurs in the hall slowly calmed down Yang Guang, and the joy in his brows slowly faded away. He glanced at Yuan Shou, who was in despair, his eyes full of disgust. He originally wanted to kill him one by one. However, after thinking about it, he made a special trip to Yuan Shou and said: "The great event of Tuyuhun, Yuan Qing, has been decided. Murong Fuyun and his son have died in Fuqi City. Can I say that the overall situation is settled now? Can I give rewards based on merit? ,Have officials been dispatched? Huh?”
Yuan Shou was feeling restless, regretful, and resentful towards the silently hiding noble leaders of Guanlong. When he suddenly heard Yang Guang's stern questioning voice, he was suddenly shocked and stood up quickly.
There was a "click" sound, but Yuan Shou was in a hurry, and the jade tablet used to record events fell down. The tablet first fell on the table, bounced, and then fell to the ground. In the sound, it broke into several pieces.
In an instant, there was an uproar in the hall. They all looked at Yuanshou standing with strange expressions.
The wat tablet in the hands of the ministers is like the sword in the hands of the swordsman, which contains the meaning of "the sword is with the person, and the sword is broken, the person is dead". However, when the emperor shouted, Yuan Shou was frightened and panicked. It would represent status and dignity. The Wat board was broken. This is too embarrassing and useless, right?
What qualifications does such a timid and fearful person who can't even keep the Wat Board have to enter the palace? What qualifications do you have to serve as a general in the Sui Dynasty?
Yuan Shou forced himself to calm down, saluted Yang Guang with a wat tablet in hand and said, "Sage, I am stupid and ignorant, and I dare not discuss the affairs of the state arbitrarily."
"Pfft!"
"Ha ha!"
"hey-hey!"
The Sui Dynasty was not as serious as the Song and Ming Dynasties. Some officials laughed unkindly when they saw Yuanshou's funny and useless appearance. And these laughter and contemptuous glances were like sharp blades, piercing into Yuan Shou's heart one by one, leaving his heart full of holes and feeling ashamed. The clothes on his back were soaked with cold sweat. He cupped his hands and said in a trembling voice. "Sage, I don't know the military plan, and I talk nonsense about military affairs. I hope the saint will punish me."
Yang Guang looked at the broken wat board, and then at the pale Yuan Shou. Although he felt extremely contemptuous in his heart, he thought that the other party was the core figure in the Yuan Sect after all, and it was not appropriate to embarrass him too much, so he Plan to appear to appease. However, just when he was about to speak out to comfort the other party and show his magnanimity, he suddenly thought of the sentence in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" "Today's heroes are only envoys and caoer!" Xuande was surprised when he heard this, and held the hand in his hand. Holding the spoon and chopsticks, he unconsciously fell to the ground... He said, "The sage said that thunder and wind will change everything. How can you not be afraid?"
At this thought, his eyes became cold again, and he said sarcastically in his heart: Yuanshou must be hiding his clumsiness, but does he really think that he is Liu Bei and he is Cao Cao? He said tolerantly: "It's not Yuan Qing's fault, I've been misemploying people." Amid everyone's astonishment, Yang Guang continued to say in a serious tone: "Since Yuan Qing also thinks that he "doesn't understand military aircraft", then he will remove Zuo Yi and Wei Da. As a general, focus on the Taifu Temple mission! "
"Boom!" Yuan Shou's vision went dark, and his mind went blank. He only felt his hands and feet were cold and his heart was trembling. He tried hard to calm himself down, but when he was about to do so, he found that his wat board was gone. His lips twitched, and he was about to say something, but found that Yang Guang's eyes had moved away, no longer focusing on him. Immediately, with a heart filled with despair, he bowed silently and sat down on his seat.
He knew that he was finished. Not only had he lost General Zuo Yiwei, but he had also been embarrassed! After the dispersion of the dynasty, the civil and military officials in the palace will definitely publicize his ugly behavior. After spreading rumors, no one knows how unpleasant it will be.
"Duan Shangshu!" Yang Guang knew that Yuanshou's reputation had been completely ruined after this incident. Now let alone officials from other factions who despise him, even the Guanlong nobles would feel that Yuanshou was not worthy of their efforts. and Yang Guang not only took back the key position of General Zuo Yiwei, but also laid the foundation for winning the post of Minister of Taifu Temple because of Yuan Shou's current performance. But he was the emperor of the Sui Dynasty after all, so he couldn't be as mean as his ministers and ordinary people, otherwise it would be too much and not enough.
"Your Majesty is here!" Duan Wenzhen came out to salute.
"Tuyuhun is dead. We can safely arrange rewards for meritorious service and post-war pensions." Yang Guang raised the military newspaper in his hand and said, "Later, I will have someone make a copy for future use." The Ministry of War has one
Rough plan. "
"I obey!" Duan Wenzhen responded with clasped fists.
"Niu Shangshu!" Yang Guang said again.
Niu Hong came out of the queue: "I'm here!"
"We can safely arrange the selection and recruitment of officials, but we still need to get the decision from King Wei."
"I obey!" Niu Hong retreated as instructed.
Yang Guang looked at Yang Da and said in a deep voice, "Yang Nayan!"
Yang Da stood up from the train, raised his hands and said, "I'm here!"
Yang Guang pondered for a long time and then said: "Liangzhou Mu Yangji has the title of Shangshu, and he is in charge of major military and political affairs in Liangzhou and Tuyuhun. No matter how big or small matters, personnel appointments and dismissals, he can do everything conveniently."
The troubled times were too long and the Great Sui Dynasty was too short. The major political forces in the country and the people in the old areas of the Northern Qi and Chen dynasties did not have a strong sense of identity with the Great Sui Dynasty. The Guanlong nobles who the Great Sui Dynasty relied on at the beginning have become the greatest enemies of the Great Sui Dynasty. Yang Guang feels that in today's world, only the power of the clan is the most reliable. Compared with Yang Xiong and Yang Da, who are already old and complicated with the Guanlong nobles, the four princes are very simple. He must cultivate these four people into important figures as soon as possible.
Among the four princes, the eldest Prince of Cai, Yang Zhiji, was too cautious and never wanted to step onto the stage, which disappointed Yang Guang greatly; while Prince Yang Lun of Teng was willing to do anything, but he was too impulsive. , with a temperament that is more than strong but not soft enough. Such a temper can only serve as a general or an official, but it does not have the ability to lead a hundred officials. As for Yang Jing, it is simply a lack of ability. So no matter how you look at it, only Yang Ji is suitable to be the prime minister at present.
Although there was no need for Yang Ji to enter the court to compete with all forces, Yang Guang decided to raise Yang Ji's official position, reputation, and qualifications first. When Yang Xiong and Yang Da were unable to serve as directors, he immediately transferred Yang Ji to the court. Shock the officials. At that time, Yang Ji was mature in all aspects, and no one else could object to him. And with him at the court, it would be okay for the other three princes to "mature" a little slower.
In view of this, Yang Guang simply granted the title of Shangshu Ling to Yang Ji. This not only demonstrated his merits and allowed him to adapt to this position as soon as possible, but also gave people in the world a "Since Yang Ji is the Shangshu Ling, then he will enter the court as a minister." The concept of "looking very normal"; at the same time, it also dispels the desire of other people and other factions to covet this position.
The civil and military officials in the palace were shocked when they heard Yang Guang's words. But those who wanted to object thought about it, but they couldn't say a word; firstly, except for Yang Ji's young age, he was qualified to be a minister no matter what criteria he met; secondly, Yang Ji was After taking over this empty post, he lost both the Minister of Military Affairs and the General of the Right Guard, so on the surface, he was promoted but actually demoted.
However, in terms of influence, Yang Ji's title, actual duties, casual officials, and honorary officials combined are not qualified to be compared with the "Shang Shu Ling". The reason is that although the "Shang Shuling" has been reduced to reality, because the previous Shangshu Ling was Yang Su, the Sui military god with many legends, this position, like Huo Qubing's "Champion Marquis", has long been remembered by the people of the Sui Dynasty. Deified, in the minds of the common people and ordinary soldiers who have little knowledge, the person who can inherit this position is the new god. It doesn't matter whether it is a false position or a real position, how much food and salary it has.
Yang Jixue inherited the title of King Wei from Yang Shuang and his great achievements, which are full of legend and deification. Once he becomes Shangshuling again, his influence and intangible "benefits" can be imagined.
"The saint is wise!" Reluctantly, the ministers had no choice but to express their stance.
Although Zhang Jin and other Guanlong nobles wanted to object, the emperor had grasped the timing of the canonization too well. After what happened before, they had already angered the emperor. Who would dare to make trouble unreasonably?
"That's it for today's court meeting, let's disperse!" Yang Guang's goal had been achieved, and he was eager to see the personal letters and tokens Yang Ji had given him, so he announced that the court was dismissed with satisfaction and pride.
"Farewell to the saint!" When Yang Guang left, the civil and military officials slowly withdrew from Daxing Palace with mixed emotions.
. . . . .
After the court meeting, the news that Yang Ji quickly annihilated Tuyuhun was discussed and publicized by civil and military officials, and it swept through the entire Daxing city like a storm.
The city is buzzing with excitement!
With Yang Ji's glorious victory as the basis, Yang Guang appointed him to the post of "Shang Shu Ling".
I think Yang Guang deserves his name and deserves it for granted.
