Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 399
Both Yang Yinjiang and Pei Shuying were curious, how could their husband know such a bizarre method.

Before they got married, there were special maids who taught them how to have sex. Of course, they also learned a lot of various postures, but they didn't know that postures were also related to pregnancy.

Pei Shuying suddenly recalled that when she and Yang Ming had sex, Yang Ming was indeed behind at the last moment half of the time, and it would last for a long time. No wonder her husband could conceive with anyone, so he knew this?

Where did he hear these heresies?Yang Ming replied that it was recorded in a book he saw in the Secretary's Department when he was a child.

Anyway, Yang Yinjiang and Pei Shuying are not eligible to enter the secretary's province for inspection.

Although Pei Ju can do it, Pei Shuying can't ask her father to help her find a book like this, it's not that she can't have children.

Yang Ming was also very annoyed at Dugu Feng'er's refusal to come back. This stinky girl was thinking for a long time, and she was afraid that Dugu's family would also get involved. Does Dugu Zhuan have the ability?
Hongnong Yang and Hedong Pei, which one can you fight?There are only two surnames Dugu in the sixteen guards, and they are all given surnames, not from the same family. It can be seen that the talent of the Dugu family has withered, which has reached a heinous level.

As for the Zheng Anrao that Feng Er wanted him to take care of, Yang Ming was interested in meeting him. The Zheng family of Xingyang still needed to make friends, after all, Yang Jin's fief was in Xingyang.

The king of Xingyang is Yang Jin, the prefect of Xingyang, and the eldest son of King Yang Hong of Hejian, King Xun Yang Qingzhi. This person was arranged by Yang Ming, so Yang Qingzhi worked very hard when building the county palace.

Yang Ming's greatest interest in Zheng Anrao is his younger sister, Zheng Guanyin.

Zheng Guanyin is the official wife of Li Jiancheng in history, and the eldest grandson Wugou is the official wife of Li Shimin.

It stands to reason that Zheng Guanyin's father, Zheng Jibo, is definitely not as good as his eldest grandson Wugou's eldest grandson Sheng, but this does not mean that Li Shimin married Li Jiancheng better, because when he married his wife, his eldest grandson Cheng was already dead, and his eldest grandson Wugou He was also kicked out of the house by his elder brother, grandson Anye.

Otherwise, such a big and cheap man would not be able to fall on Li Shimin's head.

But looking at it now, Li Yuan's climbing speed is faster than in history, and Yang Ming feels that most of the reason is because of himself.

He married his only daughter-in-law, and had a good relationship with his eldest son, so that Li Yuan revealed his ambition early on, planning to enter Shangshu Province as a chief official.

A person who can be an emperor may not be a minister. Li Yuan's character flaws are very obvious, and he always gives people a feeling of being untrustworthy.

Yang Guang didn't like him, Gao Yan didn't like him, Su Wei, Niu Hong, Pei Ju, and Yang Xiong all didn't like him.

If these people don't like it and you want to be a minister, it's a dream.

Fortunately, Li Yuan still had Yang Ming. Although Yang Ming didn't like him either, he still managed to save face. After all, his daughter also gave birth to a son for him, and Li Yuan was the grandfather of the fourth son, Yang Cong.

During the change in Renshou Palace that year, Yang Ming led an army to Renshou Palace to save his father. At that time, Li Yuan's performance disappointed him.

A person's first impression is very important. From then on, Yang Ming felt that Li Yuan was not worthy of trust.

Maybe Li Yuan felt that he was needed right now, so he deliberately disclosed Xuan Ba's killing to Pei Shuying, just to prove to himself that Li Yuan was loyal to me, Yang Ming, through Pei Shuying's message.

Sorry, you are loyal or not, it is clearly written in history, you don't need to prove it to me.

It is impossible for you to suppress the rebellion, you f*cking rebellion career is in a hurry.

Early the next morning, Yang Ming went to find Xue Daoheng.

Part of the reason is to help Shimin, and the other part is to visit Xue Daoheng's body.

After all, a person in his 60s, who followed Yang Guang all the way to the north, who can survive?I heard that Yu Wenkai planned to retire this time when he came back this time, and it was also because his body couldn't bear it.

Those who engage in engineering have been eating and sleeping in the open all year round, and their diet is irregular. It is impossible for them to be healthy.

Xue Daoheng was indeed ill, but it was only a minor illness, which made Yang Ming heave a sigh of relief.

"If you really don't want to do it, please say goodbye," Yang Ming said.

Others may have bad intentions in persuading Xue Daoheng, but Xue Daoheng knows that Yang Ming's persuasion to himself is entirely for his own good.
Xue Daoheng asked Yang Ming to sit down, put on a piece of clothing and sat across from him, and sighed:
"In fact, there is no serious physical problem, but some things are daring to be angry and dare not speak out. It is really aggrieved, so I have the idea of ​​​​retirement, and I want to see nothing."

What he said was aimed at Yang Guang, the property that the late emperor handed over to you, what do you think you have become in the past few years?
Like Gao Yan, Xue Daoheng's original intention of taking refuge in Yang Ming was to hope that Yang Ming could turn the tide, but both of them knew that Yang Ming didn't have that ability now.

Yang Ming said: "The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead. Xue Gong's three sons, the second and third sons have not settled down yet. Let me arrange this."

"Thank you, Your Highness," Xue Daoheng said gratefully.

His three sons, the eldest is 40 years old, named Xue De, who is now a librarian in the Secretary Province.

The second son, Xue Jing, was 30 years old. He had already arranged to enter Shangshu Province, but at that time everyone saw that the emperor didn't like Xue Daoheng, so he threw it away and became a county magistrate.

The third son, Xue Shou, was born this year and was adopted by his family, Xue Ru. He is still studying and learning in his hometown of Hedong.

The three sons are all orthodox scribes, who have inherited the style of their father. Unfortunately, it is difficult for such a person to gain a firm foothold in the center.

People who are knowledgeable and powerful are rare, and Pei Ju is the leader among them, but Xue Daoheng is not.

Human energy is limited, it is impossible for you to occupy everything, Pei Ju occupies both, and the result is that there are so many gray hairs, that is to use your brain too much.

For example, among Yang Ming's staff, Li Baiyao, who is the most knowledgeable, can't argue with others, and he can't fight with others, so when dealing with people, he always suffers.

If he was really smart, he wouldn't go over the wall to abduct Yang Su's concubine. The difference between him and Li Jing was that Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu had a crush on each other, while he had put her to sleep early.

This is so, so exciting.

"Xue Shou is not young anymore, he can't stay in Hedong all the time, I intend to let him enter Qin Palace, what does Xue Gong think?" Yang Ming said.

Of course it was 1 willing, Xue Daoheng nodded and said: "It is his blessing to be favored by His Highness, but the child is stubborn, and I am afraid that it will cause trouble to His Highness."

It doesn't matter if you are stubborn, I just like scholars with a temper, Yang Ming said:
"As for Xue Jing, I will find a way to transfer him back to the capital. He is a scholar, he doesn't understand local affairs."

Xue Daoheng fully agrees, the second brother Xue Jing has written to him countless times, saying that he really can't be the county magistrate.

When you are a local official, learning is useless, because learning cannot be used to do things, so what do you rely on, relying on your brain and psychological quality.

Pretending to be deaf and dumb, long-sleeved and good at dancing, not saying what you say, respecting your superiors and coaxing your subordinates, and being cruel and ruthless, these are the most basic.

What magistrates are most afraid of is a good old man. A good old man cannot be a magistrate, which is the same reason that kindness does not control soldiers and righteousness does not control wealth.

If Xue Daoheng resigned, Yang Guang would be very happy, and then he would have a lot of time to teach his son, including that brat Li Shimin.

After Yang Ming told Xue Daoheng about Shimin, he reminded:
"Xue Gong has been working in the Ministry of Internal History for so many years, what he has seen and heard cannot be taught, only teach them knowledge, and nothing else can be mentioned."

The things in the book are completely different from the reality. Xue Daoheng has served Yang Jian for so many years, and he has a more or less idea of ​​the emperor's power. If Li Shimin knows this stuff, it will be great.

It doesn't matter to Yang Rui, Yang Ming can teach himself, and there is also a mother who is equally scheming, who can also teach.

Xue Daoheng nodded and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, what I teach is still the way of the Imperial College, and I will never mention the rest."

Yang Ming was relieved, so he went to see Xue Chi, Xue Daoheng's daughter, while the sun was still early.

The two are considered young, so they will be very casual when getting along.

In the past, Yang Ming had the idea of ​​marrying the other party in order to protect Xue Daoheng. Now that Xue Daoheng is safe, he naturally has no such idea.

Fa Xiao, the most difficult pairing between men and women is Fa Xiao.

I've seen you pee and pick your nose, how can you do this?
"You're not too young this year, how about I find you a marriage?" Yang Ming said.

Xue Chi frowned and said, "You're not talking about yourself, are you?"

"Aren't you pretending to be affectionate? Who in my family is worse than you? Do I want to miss you?" Yang Ming said with a look of disgust.

Xue Chi made a "cut", curled his lips and said, "This year's spring outing, I'm in love with one, but it's a pity that the other party has a special status, and Grandpa doesn't like it."

"What kind of special method?" Yang Ming asked curiously.

Xue Chi said: "Their family is close to King Qi, so Grandpa doesn't like it, saying that marrying him may cause disaster in the future."

"Actually, I won't be affected, right?" Xue Chi looked at Yang Ming and said, "Just because of our friendship, you will protect me, right?"

Yang Ming nodded and smiled, "Of course, tell me, whose family is it?"

"Cui Hongsheng's second son, Cui Churen," Xue Chi said.

It turned out to be that boy, Cui Heng's younger brother, Yang Ming met him face to face in Zhongnan Mountain at that time, and he led the boy to Jingzhao Nunnery to meet his sister.

"The family is right, what's wrong with that? Mr. Xue is worrying too much," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Shall I help you persuade your father?"

Xue Chi suddenly said happily: "What I'm waiting for is your words."

The old Cui's family in Boling is also one of the largest big families in Hebei. Yang Wei only married Cui Hongjun's daughter, and Cui Hongjun's status in the family is not high.

A family like this knows how to make choices. Once Yang Hao fails, they will immediately turn around to curry favor with Yang Ming.

Whether it is a century-old dynasty or a thousand-year-old family, every big family with an origin and inheritance has its own set of rules of life.

Historically, Hedong Pei and Jing Zhaowei were the most prime ministers in the Tang Dynasty, tied for the first place, with 17 each.

The second place is the Cui family of Boling, with sixteen prime ministers.

Yang Ming will definitely have to deal with the Cui family in the future, and he can't get around it.

Throughout the history of the Tang Dynasty, it is the history of contradictions between the Guanzhong Group and the Shandong Group (to the east of Xiaoshan and Hangu Pass). The occurrence of the Anshi Rebellion was inevitable, and it was also the biggest decisive battle between the two factions. From prosperity to decline.

What can really affect the regime is the internal contradictions of the ruling class. The Guanzhong Group blocked the ascending channel of the Shandong Group, and coincided with the serious land annexation. Thus forming a decisive battle situation between the two groups.

One of the top generals under An Lushan's command, who first defeated Changqing, then captured Ge Shuhan, and finally captured Chang'an, Cui Qianyou, was from the Cui clan of Boling.
