There is a large box full of the five-tooth ship design drawings that Yang Su secretly saved from back then.
Yang Ming flipped through it roughly, but he couldn't understand it. He didn't recognize many professional terms on it.
Professional matters should be left to professionals. Yang Ming is not omnipotent. He doesn't even understand the principles of textile machines, let alone a five-tooth ship.
This box was of great importance, and Yang Ming was worried about letting people send it away, so he decided to take it with him when he returned to Jingzhou in the future.
The second child, Yang Jian, was miserable. He was imprisoned in the courtyard, and the door of the house was sealed with talismans. In the courtyard, a group of Taoist priests set up altars and held altars, shaking the bells and Dharma flags in their hands. The smoke was thick, and the atmosphere was very special. It's like the underworld.
Seeing Yang Ming come in, Zhang Xiaobao, the number one loser next to Yang Jian, came up to him.
This boy had yellow talismans on his chest and back, and a wreath on his head.
As Yang Zhen's personal attendant, he seems to be responsible for moving. Which position should he move? According to Taoist priest Zhao Zhao's instructions, he walked through the Bagua position in the yard and asked him to stand wherever he wanted. This process seemed to be called attracting evil spirits.
But now the ritual has almost been completed, so Zhang Xiaobao's legs are free.
"Your Highness is here? The smell in the courtyard is choking, Your Highness should stay away."
Yang Ming raised his hand to wave away the smell of smoke floating in front of him, and asked, "How long will this ritual take?"
"One hour each in the morning, noon and evening," Zhang Xiaobao said, "Zhenzhen Zhao said that the evil spirits on His Highness are quite stubborn and difficult to get rid of. It will probably take nine days to completely eliminate them."
Yang Ming looked helpless.
In fact, in addition to gambling houses, brothels, and loan sharks, the most profitable industries in ancient times were people like Taoist Zhao Zhao.
This industry is purely a huge profit industry, with huge profits, and everyone from princes, princes, ministers to common people cannot do without it.
The cost can be high or low. Someone like Zhao Zhao is equivalent to a leader at the front end of the industry. He has people under his command, a magical weapon, and a complete set of sect inheritance, which is considered relatively authentic.
Folk warlocks don't need any cost, just a few pieces of yellow paper can do it.
As for whether it works or not, it's completely up to God.
At this time, a Taoist priest came over and hoped that Yang Ming would leave so as not to be contaminated by evil spirits.
Yang Ming could not refuse, so he nodded, turned around and walked out of the arch, and Zhang Xiaobao quickly followed:
"The Second Highness has brought several beautiful maids from Jiangdu to His Highness. They are currently living in the side courtyard. I will send them to you now?"
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Aren't there any evil spirits in them that need to be exorcised?"
"Zhenzhen Zhao has checked it and it's not necessary," Zhang Xiaobao said.
Yang Ming nodded: "Send it over."
There's no way he wouldn't want it, so why wouldn't he? What kind of man would refuse a beautiful woman put in his mouth?
In Qingshan Room, five Jiangnan women lined up and stood in front of Yang Ming.
Shui Ling, really Shui Ling, that little skin is so tender, it seems like you can pinch out water.
As expected of a woman from the south of the Yangtze River, she is more lovable than a woman from the north and will make you feel protective.
Yang Ming will keep these maids and reward them to others when he has the opportunity in the future.
He doesn't enjoy it himself, after all, there is Chen Shuyi beside him who is like a perfect match for a Jiangnan woman.
According to Chen Shuyi, Gao Yue has been distracted all day since she returned to Daxing, and Chen Shuyi's IQ cannot yield any useful information.
Of course Yang Ming wouldn't ask, because he knew that he couldn't ask.
The secrets of the other party can be used as a dowry by Pei Ju, which shows that the involvement is absolutely huge.
This woman must be watched carefully.
Since he couldn't enter the palace, Yang Ming could only wander outside every day, most of the time going to Jinyang Tower.
Ten days later, Li Jing returned to Beijing. He was recalled by the Ministry of Officials and received a reward.
Yang Ming will not rely on his own connections to give more rewards to Li Jing. Don't be in a hurry, just take your time.
Li Jing was highly regarded by Changsun Cheng because of his meritorious service in attacking the Turks in the north, so he submitted the letter to the imperial court after Changsun Cheng
It is at the top of the merit list.
After the official review, it was handed over to the supreme leader Yang Jian. Finally, Li Jing was awarded the title of Yitong Sansi and was given to 100 households in Longxi County.
In other words, the taxes of one hundred civilian households in Longxi County went to Li Jing and became his salary. It was a salary that he could enjoy for life, which was considered a good reward.
After receiving the reward, Li Jing first went to see Yang Su, as Yang Ming had agreed with him.
Li Jing will still follow Yang Su's path from now on. When Yang Su is no longer able to support him, it will be Yang Ming's turn.
Yue Gong Mansion,
Yang Su stood in the study room, flipping through some classics, while Li Jing stood beside him, listening to Yang Su's instructions.
"The King of Hedong is also in great prosperity right now. Why don't you go to see him first and come to see me instead?" Yang Su said slowly.
Li Jing hurriedly said: "This disciple has been supported by his mentor all the way. I will not forget the kindness of teaching him."
"Haha..." Yang Su smiled: "It's rare that you still know that you are my disciple. I thought you had forgotten the principle of one minister not serving two masters."
"Disciple will never forget, and will never do this," Li Jing said respectfully.
Yang Su snorted and said: "The King of Hedong has been planning for you. You must remember this kindness. It is rare for others to value you. After a hundred years, you can change your family and join his sect, and let him support you. With your talent and learning, you can expect to be crowned Duke."
"This disciple has absolutely no intention of doing this. I hope my teacher will tell me the truth." Li Jing fell to his knees on the ground.
Li Jing still has feelings for Yang Su. He was able to enter the official career because of his support. In his opinion, without Yang Su, he would have no chance to know Yang Ming.
Moreover, the Sui Dynasty originally valued the relationship between master and disciple, and Li Jing was not that kind of ungrateful villain.
Yang Su nodded, sat down in front of the chief, and said slowly:
"I'm not joking with you, or testing you. In fact, I intend to let Xuangan's eldest daughter marry into the Hedong Prince's Palace. And since you are my disciple, I would like to see you have a good relationship with the Hedong Prince. .”
Li Jing looked up with confusion.
Seeing this, Yang Su waved her hand for him to sit down and said with a smile: "Xuangan is stupid, as you know, I can't trust him the most in this life. Fortunately, Yinjiang is smart and benevolent. If she can become the princess of Hedong King, , when I die, Xuangan won’t even have a helper around me.”
"Why did my teacher say this?" Li Jing knelt down and cried: "You are in good health and spread your kindness and righteousness to the world. God will definitely show mercy to you. My teacher still has a life span. Don't say these words of self-pity again. .”
"Okay, okay, you are a young man, why are you crying?" Yang Su smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I know my body best. When you are at my age, you are waiting for a serious illness. You get up first, I I have something to tell you."
Li Jing wiped his tears with his sleeves and stood up with choked sobs: "Disciple, I respectfully listen to my teacher's teachings."
Yang Yue saw this in his eyes, and after pondering for a while, he said:
"Among all my disciples, I have always valued you the most. I told you back then that you would eventually sit in my position."
"Disciple..." Li Jing was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yang Su raising his hand: "Listen to me."
"I believe that I have three qualities in my life. First, I have unparalleled loyalty and filial piety. I have been attached to the supreme command since the old Zhou Dynasty. For the past twenty-two years, I have been assigned the important task of annihilating Nanchen, suppressing the rebellion in Jiangnan, and defeating the Turks. Now I am a highly respected minister. Given the gift of the Second Saint Long Chong, I, Yang Subie, dare not say that there is no one in the court who can match my loyalty."
"Second, I have unparalleled benevolence and righteousness. They all say that I, Yang Su, kills the most people and treats others the most ruthlessly. Anyone who says this is not worthy of advice and is not worthy of my refutation. Those who know me are two saints. The rest of you are short-sighted people. Only Gao Jiong is half a close friend."
"Third, I have an unparalleled knowledge of people. Among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, except for a limited number of people such as Gao Suwei and Pei Ju, most of the others who have lords have served under me. They should be most grateful for their current status. Apart from the two saints, that person is me."
This is known to everyone in the dynasty.
Liang Shiyan, Yuan Xie
, Yu Wenxing, Yu Wenshu, Cui Hongdu, Li Xun, Wang Changxi, Liu Ren'en, Lai Huer, Shi Wansui, etc., etc., all served under Yang Su.
The general of the Sui Dynasty was half out of Yue Mansion. These words are not just said casually.
Yang Su sighed and continued: "This time I attacked the Turks from the north, I found that my body has become old and decayed, and it is far worse than before. I may not lead the army again in the future. If you follow me, you will not go far on this road. , I advise you to switch to Yang Ming, not to test you, but to find a way out for you."
"Teacher..." Li Jing, who was listening on the side, was already crying.
Yang Su said with a smile: "We all grow old. I am content with a prosperous life. Unfortunately, my eldest son Xuangan will not be able to become a great weapon. If he does not have good people to assist him, with his temperament, big things will happen in the future. So I hope that the pharmacist will give more advice to Xuangan in the future to prevent him from going astray."
Li Jing nodded quickly: "Disciple, please keep this in mind and will advise Xuangan at all times."
Yang Su nodded with a look of relief: "I have tried my best regarding Yin Jiang, and the position of the concubine will not be left behind. So from now on, you should treat Yang Ming as you would me. Among the three princes, this son is the most important." A great talent is made by nature. If there are any changes in the future, please remember to advise him to keep a low profile and not to show his talents too much, so as not to make Dong Gong (Yang Zhao) miss him."
Li Jing was stunned and said: "Are there any changes in the future?"
Yang Su smiled meaningfully, stroked his beard and said: "The only constant thing in the world is that it is always changing. I am fifty-eight this year. How many of the major events that I have encountered in my life are expected? Worldly events Changes are beyond the human mind's ability to predict. Only by weighing everything and waiting for opportunities to adapt can we be invincible. Medicine masters must remember this."
"Disciple, please obey the instructions," Li Jing saluted respectfully.
Yang Su nodded: "Don't let Yang Ming know what I told you today. I think he treats you sincerely. You have to walk your own path in the future. If I can live a few more years, , I should make some plans for you again, so as not to waste my time as master and disciple."
Li Jingmeng knelt down and kowtowed three times to Yang Su.
Yang Su stood up and personally helped Li Jing up: "Get up, I will leave it to you from now on..."
