During the Kaihuang period, Menxia Province had an establishment of 137 people and 421 temporary workers.
This department is one of the six ministries in three provinces and has great authority. More than 500 people handle daily work, which is actually not too much. After all, this is the highest office of a country, equivalent to the Central Office and the General Office of the State Council.
Later, after Yang Guang's restructuring, power was decentralized. The newly established palace provinces and Sili Tai provinces took away some of their functions, but the most important functions were still in the menxia province.
Therefore, the establishment has also been reduced, to 97 people, and the number of temporary workers remains unchanged.
The temporary workers in this department are not ordinary people, so Yu Wenshu immediately learned that his son had been sued and that someone was in the province.
He didn't hate Yu Juluo and the other three, he only hated himself for being a hero and having three sons who were incompetent compared to each other.
Among the three of you, it would be fine if there was a Xuangan like this, but you can't even compare to Xuangan.
Of course, they can't compare to Hongnong Yang and Poyantou. Can they be compared? The foundation is only four to five hundred years behind.
Yuwenshu was in a bad mood. Although the emperor suppressed the matter, he knew that this was his son's hand. When it would be liquidated, the initiative rested with the emperor and the prince.
In an official residence in Jinyang City, Yu Wenshu called his two remaining sons.
"Your brother was ordered to quell the rebellion in Hebei, but he killed innocent people there indiscriminately, and he was sued."
The second eldest child, Yuwen Zhiji, said in surprise: "Who is so bold as to sue the eldest brother?"
Seeing that his second son was so low on the stage, Yuwenshu snorted coldly: "Yu Juluo, Shi Xiang, and Qu Tutong jointly signed. One is the envoy of Hebei, and the other two are to assist your brother in suppressing the rebellion. Both sides We have already sued him, but you can tell us how to solve this matter?"
As soon as he heard the names of these three people, Yuwen Zhiji suddenly became speechless. These three people are still very important. One is a member of the Emperor Gaozu, one is an emperor, and one is a person of the Holy Queen. They are not easy to mess with. .
"What's wrong with them? My eldest brother is ordered to suppress the rebellion, but they are shooting cold arrows in the back. What do they want to do? With such a unanimous stance, there can't be someone behind the scenes, right?" Yu Wenzhi asked.
Yu Wenshu frowned and said, "What I'm most afraid of is someone instigating me. It's unusual to be able to instigate these three people at the same time."
"It can't be the prince," the old third scholar said: "The prince probably doesn't know about things in Hebei, so it can't be him. Yu Juluo was the commander of the imperial guards of Emperor Gaozu, and Shi Xiang was an old subordinate of His Majesty's army against Chen. Qu Tutong was appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of the Yong'an Palace Guards. Currently, there are probably not many people who can command these three people at the same time, and the prince may not have this ability."
Yu Juluo is the Duke of Gaotang County, Shi Xiang is the Duke of Yangcheng County, and Qu Tutong is the Duke of Yichuan County. The three dukes jointly filed a complaint. Anyone who can drink from it can drink a pot.
But after listening to Sanzi Shiji's analysis, Yuwen Shu nodded in agreement:
"As long as it's not the prince who instigates things, things will be easy to handle. I see, it's your eldest brother who caused the anger and resentment down there, making the three of us realize that something is wrong. He killed too many people and was afraid of taking responsibility, so he unified his approach and blamed everything on your brother. In terms of head, your eldest brother is too young to fight these three old foxes."
Yuwen Zhiji frowned and said, "What should we do? The matter is afraid that it will go online. If this matter is revealed, someone will use it to make further use of it. Yang Yue is a loser, but he is keeping a close eye on our family. If this bastard is playing dirty tricks, he will be hard to guard against."
Yu Wenshu smiled and said: "I also have something to do with Yang Yue. I will find opportunities to hint to him. If he dares to expose it, I will also expose his family's annexation of land in Shandong."
Menxiasheng, what Yu Wenshu can know, Yang Yue must also know. Don't forget, he was once the boss of Neishi Province, one of the three provinces, not to mention there are too many people from the Six Ministries and Eleven Temples, Hongnong Yang.
"Pei Laogou should be more careful. I'm confused. If he doesn't fight with Yang Yue, why does he always attack our family? The princess's surname is not Yuwen, either?" Yuwen said wisely.
"Hey, don't tell me, my surname is Yuwen," the old man said with a smile.
Yuwen Zhiji sneered: "Yang Su is also shameless. He married off his granddaughter just to get ahead. He even changed his surname."
"What do you know?" Yu Wenshu said angrily: "You can figure out Yang Su's methods? I often teach you not to despise others. You are better off. You dare to belittle Yang Su. Who do you think you are?"
The two of them suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
Yu Wenshu looked helpless: "I finally figured it out. When I die, the three of you will be liquidated before the coffin board is closed. A big disaster is coming, especially if you don't know it. You three brothers, It’s unworthy.”
"Grandpa, calm down," the brothers quickly knelt down.
Yu Wenshu sighed: "Which one of you will go back to Beijing? Bring a gift to your treacherous uncle. Now we need to repair the relationship with him, otherwise we will die faster if we are alone."
"I am prepared for danger in times of peace, and my son respects me, but among the officials in the dynasty, who can compare with my father? Why bother to please that despicable man Li Hun," Yu Wenzhiji complained.
In the second year after Li Hun attacked the Duke, he stopped paying tribute to Yuwenshu. He felt that it was only natural that Yuwenshu should serve his brother-in-law.
But it was you who promised Yu Wenshu that after you ascended the throne, you would give half of the government's royalties every year. You were the first to be dishonest. Yu Wenshu helped you so much, and you reaped the benefits for a year.
Because of this, Yu Wenshu held a grudge and complained: I was betrayed by Li Jincai, and I will never forget it until I die.
As a result, the relationship between the two families became increasingly tense.
Historically, Li Hun felt that he had been betrayed and started to fight against his uncle Yuwenshu. As a result, when Yang Guang was conquering Liaodong, a warlock came out and said: Li should be the emperor, and everyone with the surname of Li in the country should be punished. .
This time, Yu Wenshu took the opportunity and directly dragged Li Hun and Yang Lihua's son-in-law Li Min into the water.
Why not Li Yuan? Behind Li Yuan are Longxi Li, Fufeng Dou, Luoyang Dugu, and his cousin Yang Guang. Try if you can drag them down.
In this life, at least so far, no sorcerer has told Yang Guang that the Li family should dominate the world, so Yu Wenshu has no chance to make a move. Instead, he needs to win over his brother-in-law.
Li Hun is easy to win over, as long as there are benefits. Like Yang Yue, he is very greedy for money. The difference is that Yang Yue is picky about food, while he is not selective about food.
Under the Suzaku sect, Yang Ming stood there with several Qianniu guards of his.
When Yu Zhongwen was two hundred meters away, he quickly dismounted, trotted towards the city gate with the sword on his waist.
A general of his level would not need to take off his weapon in such a scene. With so many guards around him, if he dared to draw his sword in front of the prince, someone would immediately come up and hack him to death.
"I, Yu Zhongwen, pay homage to His Royal Highness," Yu Zhongwen said in a military salute.
Yang Ming stepped forward with a smile and helped him up: "It's good to be back. Duke Yanshou did not disappoint me this time."
Yu Zhongwen's arm was held by Yang Ming, and he was pulled towards the palace. A young man was pulling an old man. The scene was a bit strange.
Yu Zhongwen's surname is Wanfeng Yu, and he belongs to the Xianbei tribe. The Xianbei people have a characteristic that they are relatively tall. Yang Ming also has Xianbei blood, but he is still half a head shorter than Yu Zhongwen, so Yu Zhongwen deliberately slimmed down. He didn't dare to stand side by side with Yang Ming.
The generals in the army are all like this. Before going on an expedition, if the country wants to use you, your personality will naturally be domineering. You will feel that you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders, and no one dares to give him a look. After you come back, as soon as the military power is handed over, you will immediately become cowardly.
Yu Zhongwen was like this. Before leaving the capital, he dared to ride with the prince. Once he came back, he no longer had the courage.
In Daxing Hall, hundreds of officials have gathered. The officials stood up to welcome the prince into the hall. After seeing Yu Zhongwen, they also congratulated him one after another.
In his half-life, Yu Zhongwen became the center of attention for the first time in Daxing Hall. Facing the congratulations of the ministers, he returned the favor one by one with humility.
It is not easy for someone like him to be granted a title. After all, he is already a Duke. He can only add food, slaves, and a Shangzhu Kingdom. It is impossible to make a Duke. Between the Commander and the Duke, The gap is quite large.
There are only two ways to become a duke. First, your father is a duke and you attack him. Second, the emperor thinks that you are his right-hand man and cannot do without you, so he will be promoted to you.
The second situation is very rare, so this thing mainly relies on blood relationship, that is, reincarnation technology.
After Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, the Communist Party of China granted the title of three dukes: Xu Guogong Yu Wenshu, Rong Guogong Laihuer, and Lu Guogong Shi Long Live.
The first two are the emperor's absolute confidants, and Shi Wansui is the prince's absolute confidant.
To expect to be granted the title of Duke for great achievements, the merit required is huge. Shi Wansui fought all his life, and when he was about to retire, he was granted the title of Duke of Lu, who comforted him, with the full efforts of his disciples.
Yu Zhongwen didn't have any disciples to be the prince.
During the two-hour court meeting, nothing else was discussed. Everyone was chatting enthusiastically with Yu Zhongwen, asking about the story of the war.
This kind of treatment, that is, this time, Yu Zhongwen will not be able to enjoy it until tomorrow's court meeting, so he must cherish it because this thing only has a one-day shelf life.
Of course, Yu Zhongwen would not tell the entire war at the court meeting. He would only select some that were and were not available to deal with this group of ministers. He would only state the real process to the prince alone when there were few people.
After the court meeting, Yang Ming stayed with Zhongwen to have lunch in the East Palace, with the princess accompanying him to show that he valued Zhongwen.
"A few days ago, Yu Wenshu sent a Goguryeo woman to Gu. Do you know about this?" Yang Ming said with a smile.
Good guy, Yuwenshu is such a thief. I went back to Liaodong with him. Why didn’t I know about this?
Yu Zhongwen said blankly: "I don't know, but the female family members of the Gao family are all in the hands of Yu Wenshu. I have never seen them. This woman should be named Gao, right?"
Yang Ming smiled and nodded: "My name is Gao Yunzhi, she is Gao Yuan's daughter."
Grass! If I had known that when I entered Pyongyang, I should have detained the person first and asked Yu Wenshu to borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha.
Yu Zhongwen sighed: "I am not as good as Yu Wenshu. I entered Pyongyang one step ahead of him, so I never thought of this."
Yang Yinjiang smiled and said: "Gong Yanshou just disdains the ploy to flatter people."
Yu Zhongwen smiled awkwardly, not because he disdained it, but because he didn't have the consciousness.
