Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 168 There are three crimes
The old Liu family in Hedong may not be very united at other times, but as long as they are dealing with Yang Su, they are really united, and they have some strength to make some strength.

Yushi Liutiao, the servant of Yushitai, confronted Yang Su head-on, because Yang Su said a word: a wicker is weak, and it doesn't need wind when it is shaken alone.

Liu Shu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, both his father and uncle were ridiculed by Yang Su, and he will never forget this hatred even after he enters the coffin.

Liu Yu, the garrison servant of the Ministry of Industry, offended Yang Su and was dismissed from office.

Liu Huitong, the Duke of Changle County, shot Yang Su's carriage in the street. After being found out by Emperor Yang Jian, he whipped him twenty lashes, and he was lame for half a year before he recovered.

In the field of Hedongliu, only those who have titles can find twenty or thirty. With the concerted efforts of everyone, Liu Shu was elected as the leader, which can be regarded as getting Yang Su down.

When people are happy, they want to spend money.

So the Liu family raised funds and donated a golden statue of Sakyamuni to the meditation temple under construction in memory of Queen Dugu Jialuo.

After Emperor Yang Jian knew about it, he was very pleased and praised him as a "pro-Buddhist family".

"This little bastard!"

Liu Shu expedited the [-] miles sent from Jingzhou, threw it on the table, and cursed angrily:
"How dare he fool me? Still can't find it? You checked the fart."

Seeing that Shangshu was so angry, Yang Gongren, the servant of the Ministry of officials, couldn't help but said:
"Mr. Liu be careful."

This nima is in the lobby of the official department. You openly insulted the county king as a little bastard, so who is the big bastard, the old bastard?
Liu Shu also reacted, knowing that he had made a slip of the tongue, he hurriedly corrected him:

"I'm calling Murong Sanzang that bastard."

Hehe, I'm not deaf, Yang Gongren sneered in his heart.

Don't think he is just a servant, but because he comes from the clan, he doesn't need to bow his knees in front of Liu Shu.

Liu Shu handed the official document that Yang Ming had beaten back to Yang Gongren:
"What do you think of Gongren?"

how can i seeOf course it is not to offend others, how do you look at it, Yang Gongren said:

"Since the King of Hedong is firm, it's better to let this matter go."

"Give it up?" Liu Shu laughed angrily, "I thought Gong Ren was an upright person, but I didn't expect that he was also afraid of power?"

nonsense!The King of Hedong belongs to our Lao Yang's family. If I don't turn to him, do I still turn to you?
Yang Gongren said: "Then what does the Shangshu want? After all, this is an old case involving the late Duke of Xiangyang. Can the Wei family be willing to be splashed with dirty water?"

"I didn't frame them," Liu Shu asked someone to bring up a pile of files, pointing to them: "The evidence is solid, such a criminal, should I let him continue to sit in the position of Jiangling prefect?"

If you want to fight against the two families, don't get me involved, Yang Gongren said: "It's not a big deal, just give me a warning."

"Confused!" Liu Shu slapped the table furiously: "Since I am an official of the Ministry of Officials, I should be fair and strict in dealing with things. If not, wouldn't I be entrusted by the Supreme Being?"

Well, you have moved out of Supreme, what else can I say?

Yang Gongren also knew in his heart that Liu Shu is currently a celebrity in the eyes of the Supreme Being, and basically has the potential to fight against Su Wei. Given time, he might be another servant.

Do whatever you like, just don't get me involved.

After Yang Gongren left, Liu Shu summoned Gao Xiaoji, another official minister.

Gao Gou, named Xiaoji, was originally Qi Chen. This man was very capable in his work, and he was Niu Hong's student.

After knowing Liu Shu's reason for summoning him, Gao Xiaoji was also in a dilemma. The transfer order document from the Ministry of Officials had already been sent back intact by the King of Hedong. If you send another one, I'm afraid there will be no result.

Obviously, people don't give you this face.

For this kind of thing, you have to discuss it with the King of Hedong first, so that you can take people in his jurisdiction, otherwise, you will not be able to move.

But Gao Xiaoji also knew that Liu Shu wouldn't discuss it with anyone now, after the fight with Zuo Pushe, he was too bloated.

"Or send someone down to bring Murong Sanzang back?" Gao Xiaoji said.

His idea is right, it is almost impossible for Murong Sanzang to return to Beijing honestly, and the Department of Examination under the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the appointment, dismissal, transfer and assessment of officials. .

"It's still Xiaoji who is sensible," Liu Shu said with a look of relief, "I will do as you say."

"Don't, it's up to Shang Shu to make up your own mind, I didn't say anything," Gao Xiaoji was also afraid of implicating himself.

"Hehe. If you are so timid, what will you do in the future," Liu Shu taunted the other party before sending him away.

Liu Shu took Murong Sanzang to operate, but his idea was actually very simple, he just wanted to kill Yang Ming's prestige.

Among Yang Guang's three sons, this boy is the most conspicuous. I heard that Liu Chang and his son were planted in this boy's hands.

After defeating Yang Su, his prestige in the court increased day by day, and the one who could overwhelm him, Liu Shu, was Prince Yang Guang.

But Liu Shu refused to accept Yang Guang, even when Yang Guang first made him the crown prince, he once threatened: "The eldest son is here, so why set up a second son?"

He himself is the eldest son of the family, the Duke of Jian'an who attacked his father Liu Ji.

In his view, as long as the eldest son is alive and inherits this kind of thing, it cannot be the turn of the next one. This is messing with the ancestors' family law.

The officials in the court who dissatisfied with Yang Guang are basically because of this, which is why from the beginning, Yang Lihua was worried that the second child would play tricks on the boss.

Only when the eldest son is gone, the second son is justified.

Xiangyang County.

The construction of the Xiangyang Navy has already started. The first thing is to expand the wharf, otherwise the ships will not be able to dock.

The wharves are not concentrated in one place, but stretch for more than ten miles, distributed in the coastal area on the east side of the Han River. Ships are built on land and then launched into the water.

This is a big project, and the first person in charge must be Yang Ming, because he asked for the money from the court, and then the chief officials of the water department of the Ministry of Industry, they will supervise the whole process and give guiding opinions. Next is Du Zha, the prefect of Xiangyang, because the navy is in his territory.

The first thing Yang Ming did after he came to Xiangyang was to find the chief officer of the Shuisi Yamen for dinner, and he would always bring this person with him in the following days.

Yao Xing also knew very well that if he could be taken by the King of Hedong for food and drink, he had to learn to be clever, and he had to be clear about what could be reported and what could not.

After all, he was sent from Daxing, a member of the Ministry of Water from the sixth grade, Wailang, so he naturally knew that the Ministry of Industry's budget filing for shipbuilding did not include a five-toothed ship.

This thing is not a random thing, if it wasn't because Yang Ming was a member of the royal family, he would have thought that the other party wanted to rebel.

That night, Yang Ming hosted a banquet at Du Zha's residence, entertaining Yao Xing and other eleven officials from the Ministry of Water.

During the period, Du Zha ordered some boxes of money to be brought up, and said with a smile:
"The reconstruction of the navy this time depends on you all, and a small gift is not a respect."

Yao Xing's face turned green on the spot, what do you mean?In front of the King of Hedong?Dare I?
"If you can't make it, everyone is doing things for the court and His Highness. Naturally, we will do our best. We all have travel money allocated by the Ministry of Industry, so there is no need for Prefect Du to spend money."

Officials like them who are sent out to do things have travel expenses, but not much, because the imperial court has always been very shabby in this regard.

But Yao Xing and the others were even more shabby.

Although the Great Sui Dynasty was full of related households, there were still some positions that needed to be paid attention to. For example, positions like Yao Xing that required particularly high professional skills could not be filled by related households.

Yao Xing was born in a shipbuilding family in the south of the Yangtze River. His ancestors served the Xiao and Chen families, and now he serves the Yang family.

People like him earn hard-earned money, and if they want to earn some extra money, they just need to eat and get cards.

As we all know, eating and taking cards are all small money.

Du Zha brought up some boxes of money so politely, it would be a lie if he wasn't tempted.

But he dared not ask for it.

Seeing this, Yang Ming smiled and said, "Take it, it's all hard-earned money to cover expenses, and it's not a bribe for you."

Yao Xing felt at ease when he let go.

In fact, the money belonged to Yang Ming in the first place, but he borrowed Du Zha's hand to send it, and it was inconvenient for Yang Ming himself to do so.

After taking the money, they will naturally know what to do. For the matter of the Xiangyang Navy, they just turn a blind eye and close one eye. Everything is reported in accordance with the record in the Ministry of Industry. Don't talk nonsense.

After taking care of the people from the Ministry of Water, Yang Ming had to send another person away.

Xiangyang Hussar General Cai Ju has been at home for a year.

At the beginning, Yang Ming asked the Xiangyang navy to go home and reflect on the excuse that the Xiangyang navy pretended to be a water bandit and robbed the merchant ship. During this period of time, with the cooperation of Du Zha, Zhou Zhongmou had basically taken over the Xiangyang military mansion.

Now there is another Xiangyang County soldier, Cao Shenqu. It can be said that the Xiangyang Military Mansion has changed its appearance and is completely under Yang Ming's control.

Even if Cai Ju came back, he would be a polished commander.

In a secret room in the prefect's mansion, Yang Ming received Cai Ju.

The latter has not been idle during this period of time, asking people to find connections, and wants to transfer away from Xiangyang, because he also saw that when he was ordered to go home and reflect, he was actually making room for others.

Since this is the case, Yang Ming probably targeted him when he dealt with him.

Cai Ju's current backstage is Han Sengshou. It is still possible for Han Sengshou to transfer him, but it will take time. However, after Han Sengshou learned the cause and effect, he suggested that Cai Ju take the initiative to ask Yang Ming to plead guilty. On the other hand, he also informed his nephew Li Jing and asked him to intercede for him.

Li Jing didn't dare not to follow his second uncle's orders. When he was in the capital, he had already mentioned this matter to Yang Ming.

"General Cai's face is full of red. It seems that he has been in good health recently," Yang Ming said with a smile.

Cai Ju said humbly, "It's all thanks to Your Highness."

"Really?" Yang Ming said with a smile, "General Cai, is he so quiet that he wants to move?"

"No, no, I just came to His Highness to plead guilty," Cai Ju said hastily.

Yang Ming smiled and said, "What's your crime?"

Cai Judao: "His Royal Highness is dissatisfied with a humble position. This is the first crime. The humble position has failed to share His Highness's worries. The second crime is that the humble position has neglected the management of the Xiangyang Military Mansion. This is the third crime."

That's right, the order is correct Yang Ming nodded: "Han Gong has already greeted me here, and now it seems that General Cai has been introspecting for the past year, and he will return to his post tomorrow. Go ride the general, don't make any more mistakes."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Cai Ju hurriedly knelt down.

Yang Ming smiled and waved his hands: "That's all, let's go."

Yang Ming can't use this person with confidence now, after all, he is a disciple of the old Han's family, and it is a taboo to change his family, Cai Ju will not do this, even if he is willing, Yang Ming is not at ease.

But this person may be used by Li Jing in the future.

So from Yang Ming's point of view, he should leave a helper for Li Jing.

This place in Xiangyang is where his heart and soul lies, and even if he leaves Jingzhou in the future, he will always keep an eye on this place.

There can only be his people here, and none of the other forces can get involved.

　This coughing doesn't stop, I'll just cough to death.
