Chapter 223: Go with the flow, be safe everywhere


"Lord Yang, congratulations, congratulations" Gu Ruoli, the eunuch who passed the decree, handed over the holy decree to Yang Hao, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Lord Rong on his promotion to the state defense envoy, the right military doctor, my courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, since he entered the office for less than a year, he has been promoted to the sixth grade in one breath since he entered the office, and he is only Lord Yang, which shows the favor of the official family to Lord Yang, as long as Lord Yang is diligent in political affairs, the public body is for the country, and he is loyal to the imperial court."

The future is bound to be limitless.

Now that Lord Yang has been promoted and has been able to enter Beijing as an official, the miscellaneous family is here to congratulate Lord Yang on his happiness."

The Hezhou Defense Envoy is Yang Hao's official position, which is one level higher than his original regimental training envoy, and is already the same as Guangyuan Cheng Shixiong.

The martial arts doctor is his grade, and the treatment and salary of officials must be paid according to his grade.

But how much power the officials of the Song Dynasty really have depends on what kind of difference he knows and what he is proposing.

"Hehe, the official praised it, the official family is so loving, Yang Hao is flattered.

The big official has traveled all the way through the mountains and rivers, and it has worked hard from afar, so please clean your face and change your clothes, sit down and rest, come to someone, and serve tea.

Sir, please. ” The eunuch at this time is still an official position, and it does not specifically refer to the eunuchs, nor is the eunuch called the father-in-law, the high rank is called the big official, and the next one is called the cabinet chief, and the ordinary eunuchs are called middle adults and middle officials.

Gu Ruoli is the deputy of the inner chamberlain.

Worthy of the title of a big official, seeing that he was respectful and polite, he responded with a smile, and walked side by side with him to the upper hall, Yang Hao beckoned, called Mu Yu to the front, and said in a low voice: "You go, borrow four clever and well-behaved rings from Miss Tang, and say that this official will be used to entertain a messenger." ” Mu Yu received the order, hurriedly walked out, someone outside came to withdraw the incense case, Yang Hao accompanied Gu Ruoli into the upper hall, asked someone to watch the tea waiting, but he walked to the middle of the bookcase, and put the holy decree respectfully on it, he saw that there was a vase with flowers next to it, I was afraid that someone would accidentally scrape the bottle, and the water inside would soak the holy decree, so he hurriedly moved the vase.

Yang Hao thought to himself: "The holy decree is rare in later generations, especially the holy decree of the Song Dynasty, it seems that none of them have been passed down.

I've got two now.

I will use the method of flying feather to pass on the secret letter, make a large sealed bamboo tube, seal and hide this holy decree, and pass it on to my children and grandchildren, this is a rare antique, after a thousand years, how can a piece not be sold for hundreds of thousands" Gu Ruoli knew what Yang Hao was planning in his heart, he watched coldly from the sidelines, and saw that Yang Hao's love and care for the holy decree was indeed sincere and not pretentious, so he couldn't help but nod secretly.

If Yang Hao refuses to accept the decree, or after receiving the holy decree, he follows the example of Zhe Yuxun to raise a bandit to respect himself, delay time and do not hand over power, then he has to take the secret decree and kill him on the spot.

The eight guards around him were all masters from the Martial Arts.

Wu Desi was later the Imperial City Division, the spy agency of the Great Song Dynasty, with only two duties: guarding and spying.

Among the eight guards under his command who don't look amazing, four of them specialize in practicing the art of skillful attack, which can kill people in five steps and kill in one blow, while the other four are specialized in spying on the trail, flying on the wall like walking on the ground, and good at flying knife stunts.

Since Gu Ruoli had been sent such an envoy, he naturally paid special attention to Yang Hao's every move, word and deed, and now he saw that Yang Hao's respectful posture towards the holy decree did not seem to be fake.

He had a good impression first, and the tight string in his heart relaxed, Yang Hao put down the holy decree, and when he turned around to talk to him, the smile on Gu Daguan's face became a little kinder.

The two talked in the upper hall, it was already late, Gu Ruo left Luzhou Mansion, he had a meal first, and at this time, the tea and food were full, and Yang Hao led the messenger to the back house to rest.

Due to the new construction of Luling Prefecture and the special geography, there have been no officials passing through, so the state has not yet built a pavilion, and Gu Ruoli and his entourage can only be placed in the prefect's yamen.

When he arrived at the back house, Gu Ruoli saw that there were really four empty here.

When I first arrived in Luling Prefecture, I looked from afar, and I saw the magnificent style of the prefect's yamen, who knew that the back house was so simple, not only the furnishings were simple, but even the domestic servants were very few, and the room was empty, and I didn't feel that I frowned.

Yang Haoqian smiled: "Senior official Gu."

I'm really sorry, Xiaguan's mansion has just been built, and there is no inner family, the various furnishings and waiting people in the house are limited, and many rooms are still empty.

Now that it is about to be a cold winter, the house that I have never lived in is very cold, and the big officials may not be used to it, so I will entrust the big officials to live in the residence of the lower officials temporarily. ” The eunuchs of the Song Dynasty were a bit different compared to the eunuchs of other dynasties.

Most of them have lower positions, but they are well paid and have a good daily life.

Moreover, the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty can marry wives and concubines, as long as you are willing to marry the media, the government will not jump out and point fingers and say that you are missing a part and cannot fulfill an important obligation of your husband.

Gu Ruoli, as a senior eunuch, has a very high salary, so he not only has a luxurious mansion of his own in Kaifeng Mansion, but also has a beautiful wife and concubines and a group of maids and maids to wait, seeing that this place is so simple, he is indeed a little unaccustomed, and his heart is also a little unhappy, when he heard that this is actually the prefect's own bedroom, Gu Ruoli couldn't help but be surprised, and his slackness immediately dispersed.

At this moment, Mu Yu came back with four little maid rings, not only brought four little girl rings, but also brought five or six servants in Tsing Yi and small hats, holding silk and satin bedding, as well as fine porcelain cups and saucers, tea bowls, fine tea and wine, a few food boxes containing delicious candied snacks, and a few white copper braziers, set up in the room, ignited animal charcoal, and immediately warmed like spring.

Let these people take a look, and the empty house suddenly became comfortable.

Gu Ruo said bizarrely: "Lord Yang, this is" Yang Hao originally just borrowed four rings, but when he saw Tang Yanyan thinking so thoughtfully, his heart was also warm, and when he saw Gu Ruoli asking, he hurriedly smiled and said: "This place is too simple, and it must be inconvenient for the big officials to live here. ” Gu Ruoli smiled, and felt a little closer to Yang Hao.

Yang Hao is single, and he doesn't stay in the house, and the facilities in the house are not complete.

There are very few people waiting around, many things are done by themselves, the two so-called maids look average, and they are not young, just now when they were thinking about how to settle this Qincha, they thought of asking Tang Yanyan for help.

Tang Yanyan already knew from some source that Zhi Ziyu had a falling out with Yang Hao, and left Luling Prefecture in a rage.

No matter how angry she is, she doesn't take it to heart, but she is afraid that Yang Hao will blame her for talking too much, so she is angry with her, so she is a little weak and timid, these days she is very well-behaved, knowing that there are few people in Yang Hao's mansion to take care of her, so every day she asks someone to bring delicious food to Yang Hao, but she doesn't even dare to show her face, she just wants to wait for a while, Yang Hao's anger is gone, and then appears in front of him.

Now that Yang Hao came to borrow someone from her, Tang Yanyan felt that this was a good opportunity to show favor to him and reconcile, and he couldn't wait to change into a maid's clothes and go to his house to do the messenger who served tea and water, how could there be any reason not to agree, even if four people were called, two of them were the personal rings she was used to, and the other two were Yang Hao's acquaintances, Mu Yike and Gnai Maze, two Qiang girls.

In addition, she also brought a lot of things for daily use, she is a wealthy family, and the things she uses are all precious, so she naturally got into Gu Ruoli's eyes.

Yang Hao arranged this Qin messenger properly, and then returned to his temporary residence, just left the courtyard where Gu Daguan was placed, and saw Ke Zhenwei standing in the courtyard looking around, as soon as he saw him come out, he immediately stepped forward and said: "My lord, I heard that the official family is going to transfer you to Beijing."

Seeing that he was nervous, Yang Hao hurriedly made a gesture and said, "Let's go, talk on the side." ” The two of them arrived at the small hall of the back house to meet the guests, and sat down separately, Ke Zhenwei couldn't help but say: "I just heard that the official family sent you to Beijing, this official is promoted, an official of the sixth grade, but he is only a military officer, and no specific envoy has been arranged.

Yang Hao was silent for a moment, and said with a light smile: "Ke Tuanlian, what do you think power is used for?"

Ke Zhen was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "What the adult means" Yang Hao said: "Power, in my opinion, there are only two uses for it, one is for people, and the other is for oneself.

For oneself, the picture is to be glorious and rich, to protect the children and grandchildren, to be a generation of ministers, and to be recorded in history.

As people, some people have done it, and some people have not done it.

If I am just a flat-headed commoner, or just an ordinary official in the county yamen, then whether it is tens of thousands of Northern Han people who have moved westward, how to settle them on this Luhe Ridge has nothing to do with me.

However, since the official family has appointed me to be an immigrant, then I have taken this responsibility at the same time as I have this power, so I am willing to take the risk of changing my life, or racking my brains with the powerful feudal clans around Luling, that is, since this mission is mine, I have to do it well, so as to be worthy of those people who regard me as a parent official. ” He smiled faintly, leaned back in the chair, and said: "Now, the north and south of Tubo are inseparable from Xiazhou and Yinzhou, and Luzhou is stable.

If the official family wants to transfer me to Beijing, why should I not go?"

Ke Zhen was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "My lord, are you so obedient, even if you don't think about anything else, don't you think about your personal future?"

Yang Hao said with a smile: "Why don't you want me to be promoted now, and my official is also rising, and I am a Beijing official, and I go to the richest and most prosperous place in the world, what's wrong?"

Ke Zhen said evilly: "The adults still have to hide something from their humble duties, but as an official, who doesn't want to be a powerful official, just imagine: the Son of Heaven who has lost his crown, the official who has lost his people, the general who has lost his soldiers, and the gentry who has lost his wealth, but he is a clawless golden dragon and a toothless tiger, what is that?"

"That's the good life I dreamed of.

Think about it, a civil servant who doesn't have to do things, doesn't need to bear any responsibilities, has good performance and salary, drinks good wine and tea all day long, and takes his wife to climb mountains and swim in the water when he is bored."

However, he didn't say this to Ke Zhenxi, if he let Ke Zhenwei know that he was so unambitious, he was afraid that he would make Lao Ke, an honest man, angry to death.

After a moment of silence, Yang Hao said: "Actually, I have always been a person who goes with the flow and is at peace with what happens.

I don't want to become a feudal town, for the sake of all kinds of things in Luling Prefecture, I just want these helpless people to have a way to live. ” He stood up, walked to the window, and sighed lightly: "As for entering the court as an official, how can I be a powerful minister, from ancient times to the present, how many powerful eunuchs and famous ministers, they used to call out hundreds of leaders and ministers, and once turned the clouds and rain and laughed at the court, but among these people, a few of them were able to die well, and in the end they were either beheaded or put in prison, and there are very few who can start and end well."

Maybe they don't want to be too conspicuous themselves, but once they get to that status, they can't help themselves.

Ke Tuanlian, you care about Yang, Yang is very grateful, to be honest, the most difficult period of time in Luzhou has passed, the official family promoted me to an idle official at this time, it is like I planted a tree, but let others pick peaches, my heart is not very comfortable, but at the same time, you don't think that my heart suddenly relaxed, as if I put down a thousand catties of burden.

In this Luling Prefecture, it is not easy to do your best, exhaust yourself, walk on thin ice, and live like an abyss To be a wealthy casual official, buy some land and houses, live with a beautiful wife and concubine, what is not happy about the world, the property left behind is the descendants, as a person without ambition, don't you think this is my best destination?"

"My lord", after listening to Yang Hao's heartfelt words, Ke Zhenwei didn't know what to say.

Yang Hao looked back and smiled: "If Luzhou wants to gain a firm foothold, I, Yang Hao, can go, but the officials will never replace the upper and lower officials as a whole, shaking the Luling government that has an unstable foothold and a deep foundation, you just have to be an official here with peace of mind, fulfill your duties, and ensure the safety of the people, and your future will be guaranteed."

As for me, I will entrust everything here clearly, and I will go to Kaifeng immediately. ” "This, yes" Ke Zhen lowered his head in disappointment, thinking, "I don't know if your lord's words are sincere or forced."

Once the Son of Heaven and a courtier, if you leave, even if the new prefect can't move us for a while, how can he not be replaced by his handy henchmen for a long time, it seems that I have to discuss with Lin Lao and Mu Lao. ” Under the eaves of the corner of the house, a man in a cyan night suit hung a golden hook upside down, made a bamboo tube-like thing stick to the wall, listened to the conversation in the room and nodded secretly, and when he heard Ke Zhen's evil words about to leave, he was busy with his stomach, dexterously climbed onto the roof, like a raccoon cat, quietly escaped into the night.

Gu Ruoli hadn't slept yet, he was holding a cup of tea, sitting in the room and didn't know what to think, suddenly the pane sounded, someone knocked lightly a few times, Gu Ruoli's eyes flashed, and he said softly: "Come in" As soon as the back window opened, a figure jumped in, it was the thin man in a night suit, he saluted Gu Ruoli with his fists, and explained the words he heard under the eaves of Yang Hao to Gu Ruoli, Gu Ruoli nodded again and again, the tense muscles on his face relaxed, and he instructed carefully, waved his hand to let the spy leave, Gu Ruoli thought about it, then unfolded a piece of paper under the lamp, and slowly studied the ink Yang Hao really cooperated, Gu Ruoli only urged once, Yang Hao began to sort out the document book case and the official seal and military book one by one, and handed them over, because the new prefect had not yet arrived, these things were temporarily handed over to the judge Cheng Dexuan for safekeeping, and they would be handed over to the new prefect when he arrived.

Yang Hao cooperated so much, which made Gu Ruoli, who was warmly entertained by him, a little embarrassed, he has seen a lot of officials, which of the officials who are in power are not full of resentment, and some of them have to sing sad poems and autumn fu, that sour, look at Yang Hao, kind Gu Ruoli thought about it, he also took a secret mission this time, if Yang Hao refused to give his life, and really killed him on the spot, it was inevitable that there would be no revenge from his henchmen, then it would be difficult for him to leave Luling Prefecture alive.

Now that Yang Hao is so cooperative, honest people can't always suffer, and after returning to Beijing, he has to say a few kind words for him in front of the official family, and praise his loyalty and obedience.

After everything was handed over, Yang Hao was no longer the prefect of Luling, and he said to Gu Ruoli: "Official, I go to the capital, and I don't know how long it will take to return to my hometown, Yang wants to return to his hometown to pay tribute to his relatives' mausoleums before going to work, and then transfer to Beijing." ” Gu Ruoli's most important thing has been done, and he is greatly relieved in his heart, hearing that he wants to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors, there is no reason to refrain from it, and he immediately agreed: "Lord Yang has made outstanding achievements, and when he arrives in Kaifeng, the official family will definitely reuse it.

Returning home is also a beautiful thing. ” The climate in the northwest is really cold in winter, although the servants of the Tang family take care of it properly, Gu Ruo is not comfortable living away, and now that the mission is over, he can't wait to leave and go to Kaifeng first.

Sent Gu Ruoli away, Yang Hao also prepared, in fact, he didn't have anything to prepare, just to let Luling Prefecture gain a foothold, many things could not be done in normal ways, so it was inevitable that there were many things that could not be put on the table, especially through the imperial court to seal the Hengshan Qiang people as commanders, and placed many henchmen in it, hiding soldiers in the people, and secretly developing weapons, which is even more publicized now.

Yang Hao concealed these things, really because he was born under the gate of the feudal town, and the Central Plains was separated from the two feudal domains, even if he was selfless, once it was made public, he would be suspicious of the imperial court, and now the imperial court suddenly adjusted himself, these things are not clear and ignored, and they can't be put out for others to know.

Fortunately, the people who hold these secrets are their own people, and they all know how powerful they are, and they will not leak them out, so they have to go with the flow now, and then slowly bleached them in the future.

This time, the dedication of the divine arm bow to the imperial court has to be put on hold temporarily, fortunately, although he went to the capital, there is still Fei Yu to keep in touch with him at any time, what is going on in Luling Prefecture, he can be faster than the imperial court knows, depending on the development of the situation, make adjustments at any time, with the stability of Luzhou, let the audience and the stage gradually become one, and some secrets that should not be secrets can be publicly unveiled.

But these things are very important, and Yang Hao can't rest assured after all, so he came to find his father-in-law Li Guangcen, and wanted to discuss the problems he considered with him again.

Li Guangcen's body bones couldn't hold it after all, as soon as the cold wind came, he caught the cold, and he didn't show up for a few days, Yang Hao really didn't want him to continue to work hard, but there were some secrets, even Ke Zhenwei and others didn't know, except for his father-in-law, he really couldn't find the right person to discuss.

At this time, Li Guangcen, who was occasionally infected with wind and cold and was sick in bed, put a camel hair blanket on his lap, and was sitting on the couch with Mu En, Qi Jin, Naerhan, as well as Ke Zhenxi, Lin Pengyu and others, Mu Kui broke in and said urgently: "My lord, Lord Yang is here, just arrived in front of the mansion." ” Li Guangcen's eyes flashed, and he sat up suddenly: "If Luling is handed over to others, especially in the hands of Cheng Dexuan, it will have no impact on Luzhou itself, but you and I will rise and fall and be prosperous, and the future will be rich and noble, and they will all be related to adults, but they will have a great impact."

But the adult is determined, and it is difficult to persuade him to turn back on what he has decided, which is why I have not come forward to persuade him at all in the past few days.

What's more, now that Luzhou does not have the capital to fight against Xiazhou, how can it have the capital to fight against the imperial court.

Since the lord has decided to go to Kaifeng, you don't have to persuade each other, the top priority is not to let the power of Luzhou fall aside, and you can slowly persuade him to change his mind.

You go from the back first, don't let the adults see it, let's just discuss it, first bring down Cheng Dexuan, and then see what kind of bird the new prefect is. ” "Okay, Mu Lao, please rest, as long as the military power and financial power are always in our hands, and there are a few of our old guys in the state government yamen to restrain and restrain us, there will be no major incident.

The old man took his leave first.

Lin Pengyu arched his hand, and hurriedly walked away from behind with Namuhan, Ke Zhenwei and others.

As soon as "Hao'er" saw Yang Hao come in, Li Guangcen showed a kind smile on his face.

"Father-in-law" Yang Hao hurriedly walked a few steps, held his shoulder and didn't tell him to get up, sat down next to him, and said: "Father-in-law, you care about your clansmen and refuse to go to Beijing with me, Hao'er knows your intentions, and I don't want to persuade more."

This official of the Great Song Dynasty is still good, the annual family visit holiday is very long, plus I am a loose official, there is no errand, I will often come to visit my father-in-law in the future. ” "Hehe, everyone else says that Hao'er is a big person, only his father knows, in fact, you are an idle child, if you are not forced to do so, you don't want to take on such a heavy responsibility at all, so my father did not persuade you to prevaricate and refuse to go to work."

The father and son looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.

The two held hands, faintly feeling each other's blood beating, although they were not biological father and son, they felt a kind of envy and affection.

After a while, Yang Hao calmed down, and was about to explain his intention to him, but Li Guangcen had already spoken first: "Hao'er, this time I went to the capital, although you obeyed the will of the official family, and what you did in the northwest did not leave anyone behind, but you and Cheng Dexuan had some friction, Cheng Dexuan is the confidant of Zhao Guangyi of Nanya, if he is dissatisfied with you, just make a slight gesture, it is inevitable that no official will come out to embarrass you, you have to remember, if there is anything wrong, you will rush back here." ” Li Guangcen raised his eyebrows, although his face was old, there was a heroic spirit between Gu Pan: "Don't forget, you are not only an official of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the co-leader of our party."

As long as we have three or five years to recuperate and develop our power, we will have the capital to fight against the three feudatories, and this capital is all yours.

If you are just an official of the Great Song Dynasty, you will naturally let others ask for it, but if you have this identity, it will be different, and at that time, maybe the official family will have to ask you, as long as you go back here, you will be a tiger returning to the mountain, and the dragon will enter the sea, even the official family will not help you. ” Yang Hao didn't think so, but he felt the care of his father-in-law, smiled slightly, and nodded heavily.

Li Guangcen raised his chin to the case again, and said, "Hao'er, go and get that box, it's a little gadget that my father has prepared for you." ” Yang Hao turned his head to look at the case, and saw a small box on it, red sandalwood, with a piece of red silk tied in the middle, and he didn't know what kind of gold and jade treasure it was, so he got up and took it, only to feel that it was not very heavy.

Li Guangcen smiled: "Open it and take a look." ” Yang Hao tore open the red silk and gently opened the lid of the box, only to see that there were two jade vials inside, one green and one white, surrounded by velvet.

Li Guangcen said: "This is given to me by my friend Kakhaqin Grand Wizard, I originally wanted to use it on Li Guangrui in Xiazhou, but I never got the opportunity." ” Yang Haoqi said: "What is this?"

Li Guangcen said: "This is a kind of medicine, the green bottle is a poison, it can be used in wine, tea, and food, only the water is not appropriate, because it has some color and taste, which may arouse suspicion."

Every time you pick it up with your fingertips, you only need to put in a little bit, and after eating it for about half a month, the poison will penetrate deep into the bone marrow, and then you only need to stimulate the recipient slightly, and according to their physique, the weak person will die immediately, as if the blood and gas are exhausted and die.

The strong person will also be paralyzed all over the body, and the symptoms are like a stroke, and even the world's first-class miracle doctor cannot find out the real cause, which can be said to be unaware."

Li Guangcen smiled and said: "I know that you don't care to use this trick, but in the officialdom of the Central Plains, there are many conspiracies that kill people without seeing blood, so that you can't guard against it.

I'll take it with me, and I'll do it for self-preservation."

When he said this, as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Yang Hao's eyes wide, his face became very ugly, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "Hao'er, what's wrong with you":
