After leaving Gao's Mansion, Yang Ming rushed to the Princess's Mansion to deliver business without stopping.
He knew that Yang Lihua was waiting for his reply.
After Yang Lihua learned the answer from Yang Ming, she couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity, what a good pickle."
"What else did he say?" Yang Lihua asked.
Yang Ming shook his head: "No more."
Yang Lihua asked again: "What is his attitude towards you?"
Yang Ming replied: "Very cold."
Unexpectedly, Yang Lihua nodded. It seemed that Gao Jiong still rejected the prince's faction from the bottom of his heart. Even Aniang's favorite grandson was not immune.
Yang Lihua judged that the fact that Yang Su was recruited to Renshou Palace this time meant that the latter would not be completely relegated to the cold palace and would no longer be used.
However, if Yang Su returns to the court, Liu Shu will not be able to check and balance him, and the East Palace faction will dominate the court. This is not what the Supreme Being is happy to see.
Yang Ming is still too young to replace Yang Shuang, so Gao Qiao will definitely use him again.
I wanted to recruit him one step ahead, but unfortunately the other party was unmoved.
"This Gao Qiao," Yang Lihua sighed and shook her head, looking at Yang Ming: "Would you like to have dinner at my place?"
If you ask this, you definitely don't want to keep me. Yang Ming hurriedly said: "Go home and eat."
Yang Lihua nodded and said, "Then I won't give it to you."
After that, he left the living room minding his own business.
...
Yang Guang stayed in Daxing for less than half a month. After handling some government affairs, he returned to Renshou Palace again to attend to his illness.
In other words, Yang Ming will no longer need to attend court meetings in the next period of time.
Because no one is hosting.
Yang Ming rarely sleeps in because he has no nightlife and goes to bed very early every night. He wakes up when it gets slightly brighter every day and cannot fall back to sleep.
In any case, he now has a serious job. Although he doesn't have to work from nine to five, it is still necessary to go to the right leader's mansion every day.
The Yamen of the Youling Military Mansion was in the Imperial City, and the offices of all important institutions in the Sui Dynasty were in the Imperial City.
The imperial city is to the south of the palace city, and the Twelve Guards Yamen are located in the south area of the imperial city, so they are called the Nanyafu soldiers. The left and right Yulin guards of the palace city are called the Beiya forbidden army. These are the two areas of Daxing City. A large military system.
Although there is no morning court during this period, officials from various ministries and yamen still have to deal with government affairs.
After Yang Ming entered the imperial city, he could see officials in various official uniforms busy coming and going.
The business affairs of various ministries and yamen in the Sui Dynasty were all interoperable, and they had in-depth exchanges with each other. It was impossible for them to do their own things behind closed doors.
There are three provinces, six ministries and eleven temples. The government affairs are the most onerous and they often have to work overtime.
The general of the Twelve Guards, on the other hand, is very leisurely, because there is no war at the moment, and there are naturally people under him to do the trivial things in the military office.
Don't think that since Yang Ming is the general of the Right Leading Army, he can have the final say in the Right Leading Army. In fact, he still has to take into account the opinions of both people.
One is Chang Shi Xue Shixiong, and the other is Sima Li Chen.
Both of these people have excellent backgrounds, and the family power behind them is huge. Yang Ming has just arrived and needs to rely on them to do things.
Yang Ming walked into the general's room, sat down, and motioned for Xue and Li to sit down.
The two of them had met Yang Ming many times before, but today was the first time that Yang Ming called him to report on official business.
"Yesterday there was turmoil in Guiyifang. The Chang'an County government could not suppress it, so it requested that Marquis Wu of the Wei Prefecture be assigned to suppress it. Two hundred troops were sent to arrest seventy-two thieves."
The jurisdiction of the Youling Military Mansion is fifteen squares southwest of Daxing. The west of the city belongs to Chang'an County. The county government is responsible for maintaining stability, but there are not many manpower, so if there is a major unrest, the Wei Mansion needs help to suppress it.
Daxing City only has good public security in the north, especially the Jiusan line. The people living on this line are all high-ranking officials. Each house has enough guards and private troops, so there is no safety aspect. any problem.
The further south you go, the more chaotic it becomes, especially the Gelifang area near the southern city wall, which is poor and chaotic, and fatalities often occur.
In the real Sui Dynasty, unlike in movies and TV shows, the death of an individual was taken very seriously. The yamen would peel off the cocoon, step by step, and catch the real culprit.
The reality is that as long as the person dying doesn't matter, no one cares.
After all, Li Delin was also a branch of the Longxi branch. When he died, didn't the yamen also end up hastily? If Pei Shuying hadn't been chasing him, the county government wouldn't have spent so much energy investigating.
Yang Ming didn't care about the turmoil. It was actually a struggle for interests between some local gangs, but since it was in his jurisdiction, he still had to ask.
"Are there any casualties?" Yang Ming asked.
Xue Shixiong said: "Seven of Wuhou's guards were injured, seventeen of the thieves died, and thirty were injured."
The Wei government was only responsible for suppression, and the investigation was left to the county government. If the county government could not find out clearly, it would report it to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.
In some dynasties, the Ministry of Punishment was in charge of Dali Temple, but in the Sui Dynasty, Dali Temple was one of the eleven temples and a completely independent judicial institution, and the Ministry of Punishment had no control over others.
The Dali Temple is responsible for trial and sentencing, while the Ministry of Punishment is responsible for the review and approval of cases. If there are major cases, the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment and the Yushi Province will jointly try them, which is the so-called joint trial of the three law departments.
At present, only the county government knows what caused the turmoil in Guiyifang last night and how it was sentenced. Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment mainly deal with officials. Most of the time, the bastards can't enter these two government offices. .
"Have you asked the county government about what's going on?" Yang Ming asked.
Xue Shixiong said: "The news just came from the county government this morning. He hasn't been interrogated yet. He was just tortured in prison last night."
Yang Ming frowned and said, "Then what? Is this the answer you gave me?"
Xue Shixiong was stunned for a moment, thinking, "How big is this matter? Is it worth asking you to get to the bottom of it?" You are one of the provincial chief officials of the second rank, are you curious about trivial matters?
"I heard a few things but didn't do anything, so I didn't dare to report them," Xue Shixiong said hurriedly.
Yang Ming remained silent, waiting for the other party to continue.
Xue Shixiong continued: "It should be some local gangsters who caused trouble after drinking. After the county government quickly arrived, they wanted to arrest the leader, but they encountered obstacles and took action, so that the situation escalated and triggered large-scale unrest."
This was in the capital, where ruffians dared to fight against the government. Although Yang Ming had heard from Li Jing before that the public security in the south of Daxing was extremely poor, he never expected that the ruffians were so powerful under the Emperor's feet?
"Say hello to the Chang'an County Government. Don't these people like to fight? No more trials. They will all be sent to the border to serve as garrison troops."
Xue Shixiong was stunned and subconsciously glanced at Li Chen beside him. Neither of them expected that Yang Ming would handle such incidents so decisively.
Although the Right Leader Military Mansion cannot control the Chang'an County Government, Na Yan, the subordinate minister, has the right to refute all matters. In other words, Yang Ming has the right to give opinions on any matter.
Yang Zichong, the magistrate of Chang'an County, is also Yang Ming's family, so what Yang Ming said is still very useful to him.
Xue Shixiong said: "I will definitely bring you the message."
Next, Yang Ming looked at Li Chen again:
"Zhong Bao (also known as Li Chen) has been serving as Sima for two years. You have always been in charge of Su Wei's affairs. Unrest like last night should not have happened. It should be nipped in the bud. Well, you have been in the southwest recently. We will crack down on a group of people in the 15th Square. As long as they have criminal records, we will deal with them all so that they can remember them for a long time."
Li Chen hurriedly said: "I understand that what happened last night was my fault."
"I don't blame you," Yang Ming said with a smile: "The capital is densely populated and unemployed, so naturally there are troubles from time to time, but I don't want turmoil like last night to happen again."
Li Chen said: "I understand and will never let such an incident happen again."
"Okay, you all go down," Yang Ming waved to the two of them.
Yang Ming should not be too close to these two people and should keep a proper distance. He is a superior. If he is too close to his subordinates, it will cause them to not do their jobs properly.
But he can't be too harsh or harsh, otherwise the two of them will be alienated from him, and they will inevitably do things in an unfavorable manner.
According to what Yang Ming found out, these two people were not supported by Yang Shuang. Among them, Xue Shixiong had military merit and served as a cavalry commander for the right feather Lin Guard, attacking his father's Duke Wuyin.
This person should be regarded as Yang Jian's person.
As for Li Chen, he is Li An's second son. Li An's title was taken by his eldest son Li Qiong, but Li Chen and Li Xiaogong are brothers from the same mother. The eldest Li Qiong was born to Li An's first wife. It was his second wife.
It seems that Li Qiong has a personal problem, so he cannot join the officialdom. What is the specific problem? Yang Ming guesses that it is probably because of a bad image or a disability.
Therefore, it was Li Qiong who ascended the throne, but it was Li Chen who became an official under the influence.
As for Li Xiaogong, he is only fourteen years old this year, but this boy is already married and is more powerful than Li Jiancheng.
He married Dou Dashi, the granddaughter of Yang Jian's brother-in-law Dou Rongding.
Dou Dashi's father, Dou Jing (jin), was Yang Jian's nephew. He was the brother of Dou Kang, the general of Linwei, Youyu, and Dou Qing, the prefect of Hedong County.
Li An and Li Yuan are really closely related to the Fufeng Dou family. Li Yuan's daughter-in-law is also from the Dou family.
Fufeng County is in the Xianyang area, and Lao Dou's family is the authentic Guanzhong Group.
Xue Shixiong and Li Chen both had excellent backgrounds, and Yang Ming often had to give them some face.
】
Thinking of the completion of the project, Yang Ming remembered that he had not met Li Yuan yet, but he had met Li Yuan's wife Dou, because Dou had been to the palace several times to visit Yang Yinjiang.
Anyway, there was nothing going on in the military mansion, so Yang Ming simply left the imperial city and planned to go to Tang Guogong's mansion to take a look at Jiancheng and Shimin.
Jiancheng was sixteen years old and there was no sign of marriage yet. Yang Ming was very interested in this aspect and thought it would be very interesting to ridicule Jiancheng.
This kid once lived in Yang Ming's Qingshan House for a while. He was very lustful when he was a child. Now that he is an adult, why doesn't he plan to marry a wife?
Yang Ming did not need the housekeeper to lead the way, and walked directly into Tang Gong's mansion.
From a distance, he saw a small child playing with a homemade wooden bow in the yard.
Judging by his appearance, it must be Li Shimin, the slug from back then.
"Hey, come here, kid," Yang Ming smiled and raised his hand at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin frowned, used a branch as an arrow, turned the wooden bow, and pointed directly at Yang Ming,
Yang Ming was stunned. He was a good boy, but he has been rebellious since he was a child.
