People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 169 Is it a blessing or a curse?Great changes in history
"Do you think I bully honest people?"

Zhu Yuanzhang could see what Zhu Biao was thinking at a glance, and Zhu Biao smiled awkwardly. Although he didn't admit it, it was considered a tacit consent.

"Everyone has a position, and I also want to be a good old man!
But I sit on this throne, there are some things I have to do, and if I do it, you don't have to do it in the future..."

The emperor's understatement made Zhu Biao restrain his smile, and he solemnly made a big gift to the emperor.

"Don't make such nonsense, since you guessed what I was thinking, that guy Liu Ji will figure it out later!

He can say those words, which proves that he has never had a crush on Yang Xian in his heart. In this officialdom, there are no real friends who are sincere.

For the most part, it's just an exchange of interests!

Alright, let's draw up the will! "

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered that Zhu Biao quickly draw up the imperial decree. After the emperor confirmed it, the next day morning,

The emperor made an announcement on the spot, and the government and the public were shocked for a while!

"I……

Thank you Lord Ron!
Yang Xian was also dumbfounded when he received the emperor's imperial decree.

Even, he was more shocking than the others in Zhongshu Province.

Zhu Yuanzhang promoted him to the right minister, and the emperor didn't even notify him in advance, so he mentioned it so suddenly.

After he thanked the emperor, he naturally received a burst of encouragement.

Yang Xian took the order and stood up, still a little dazed, looking around, other people had different expressions.

Especially those colleagues from the Ministry of Education had complicated expressions.

He was arranged by the emperor to serve as a political counselor in Zhongshu Province. Everyone knew that the emperor must have appointed him, but Yang Xian's qualifications in it were low, and he was low-key.

But in the eyes of others, Yang Xian should not be promoted by the emperor so quickly.

After Zhu Yuanzhang gave the order, he withdrew from the court, leaving a group of officials thoughtful.

When the emperor left, all the officials surrounded him.

"Congratulations, Mr. Yang, no, it should be Prime Minister Yang..."

"Master Yang, congratulations, I look forward to supporting you more in the future..."

"Master Yang!"

Before Yang Xian calmed down, he was immediately surrounded by people, and all kinds of flattering voices made him forget himself.

He was finally able to maintain his sobriety, and hugged Li Shanchang who was in the distance.

Although becoming the right minister of Zhongshu Province was beyond his expectations, Yang Xian knew that he did not have the foundation of Li Shanchang.

Behind Zhu Yuanzhang's old team, Li Shanchang, are all the heroes who are opening up the territory for the Ming Dynasty in the north.

And as the well-deserved No. 1 among civil servants of the Huaixi lineage, this old man's foundation is extremely deep.

Although Yang Xian has the title of Prime Minister, Zuo is one rank higher than his Right Prime Minister. What's more, the power of Zhongshu Province is firmly in his hands.

"Congratulations, Master Yang!"

Li Shanchang smiled and came over to congratulate him. Yang Xian quickly lowered his posture and said flatteringly:
"Don't dare, Your Majesty loves you wrongly. If I can learn from Prime Minister Zuo in the future, it will be my honor!"

Li Shanchang was very satisfied with his attitude.

"No, it's all for His Majesty, Lord Yang is willing to share my worries, it's too late for me to be happy!

There are too many internal and external troubles in Ming Dynasty, there are too many things that need to be resolved. In Zhongshu Province, that guy Xu Da doesn't care about things, and the whole Zhongshu Province is pointing at the old man. It is really difficult to handle!

do it well! "

Li Shanchang reprimanded the younger generation, said something to Yang Xian, then turned around and left.

Yang Xian was once again surrounded by officials from the East Zhejiang faction, but he found that one of them was missing, Liu Bowen.

"Where did Liu Ji go?"

Yang Xian was slightly displeased, obviously he had achieved great success, why didn't Liu Ji, his close friend, come to congratulate him?
Yang Xian dealt with the others, and finally broke free, but saw Liu Ji standing alone somewhere in the palace.

After finishing court, everyone went back to work.

Liu Bowen wanted to leave too, but was stopped by Yang Xian.

"This Li Shanchang is too deceitful. Although my rank is lower than his, I am at least equal to him!
What was the meaning of his eccentric words?
Don't think I don't know, I observed him when I was working in the school, the old guy has no tolerance..."

Liu Bowen listened to Yang Xian's conversation indifferently, but did not answer.

There was a bit of sarcasm in his eyes, but it was easy to hide it.

It wasn't until Yang Xian found out that Liu Bowen's attitude was still abnormal that he said bluntly:
"Mr. Liu is not happy for me!"

"You can be promoted, I am naturally happy!"

"But Mr. Liu's attitude does not seem to be happy. Could it be that Mr. Liu can't see me well?"

The relationship between Yang Xian and Liu Bowen is indeed not bad, so he directly asked the doubts in his heart.

Liu Bowen chuckled and replied:

"You and I met once, and this old man will give you a word, don't bring the faults of being a school inspector into the officialdom. Also, Li Shanchang and the old man have been fighting for a long time, he is not simple...

Don't act rashly! "

After Liu Bowen finished speaking, he accelerated his pace and threw Yang Xian away.

Yang Xian watched him leave, his face turned green and pale.

"Left and right, it's just a half-buried idiot!"

Looking back, seeing Yang Xian still staying where he was, his face turning green and red, Liu Bowen turned his head and walked away.

"The emperor took a fancy to his identity, but he didn't really understand Yang Xian!

The so-called darkness under the lamp is nothing more than this, but the old man will not be that villain anymore, and now he offends people on both sides, it is better to stay away! "

Liu Bowen could tell at a glance that Yang Xian hated him, but he didn't care.

Since being cheated by the emperor yesterday, Liu Bowen understood that this matter was destined.

"It turns out that Mr. Liu's heart is nothing more than this!"

When Liu Bowen walked away, Yang Xian breathed a sigh of relief, aggrieved:
"I wanted to get closer to you East Zhejiang officials for a while, if you don't give me face, I don't have to give you face either!"

Although the exchange between Yang Xian and Liu Bowen was short-lived.

But in broad daylight, it can't help but fall into the eyes of caring people.

But in the blink of an eye, news spread like a plague. The news that Liu Bowen and Yang Xian had a gap had already appeared in the discussion in the Imperial Study Room.

"Liu Bowen is really a smart man!"

Zhu Yuanzhang himself did not expect that this old guy would react so quickly, and immediately cut off with Yang Xian after he promoted Yang Xian.

"Next, whether Lord Yang can do what the emperor wishes, depends on his ability!"

Although Zhu Biao doesn't like his father's way of doing things very much, but he has experienced many things, and he no longer judges one thing based on his preferences.

The father and son tacitly changed the topic, and no longer took Yang Xian's matter to heart.

……

On the second day, Yang Xian invited guests to a banquet, and all officials came to court.

At this time, there was no voice of Liu Bowen alone, which further confirmed the rumors that Liu Bowen was dissatisfied with Yang Xian.

"Some people can't share wealth..."

Liu Fu, Xu Cunren and Liu Ji faced each other, and he couldn't help mocking Liu Bowen.

Seeing that Liu Bowen didn't respond, Xu Cunren couldn't help asking:
"You don't seem like the kind of person who doesn't look good at others. Even if you care about your city, it's impossible to use such a bad method to fight against Yang Xian...Liu Ji, what kind of medicine did you sell in your gourd?"

Without raising his eyelids, Liu Bowen replied:

"You don't know the way of the officialdom with your dim sum machine, so just watch it honestly!

Others see that Yang Xian is cooking oil with fire and flourishing day by day, but I see Yang Xian as dying, not far from death...

Yang Xian was narrow-minded, and the emperor never noticed it.

Because he never showed this face in front of the emperor, but when he interacts with me, I can see it!

If you can crush him to death, he is indeed a loyal, obedient and capable subordinate.

But if he gains power, sooner or later he will treat everyone around him like ants.

Moreover, he looks smart, but in fact, after he came out of the school, he lacked the means to fight in the court.

If he knows how to hibernate, he may be able to be alone after a few years of practice!
Can……"

Liu Bowen paused and said:
"If he still regards His Majesty's trust in the inspector as trust in him, or if he really thinks that he is His Majesty's confidant, this kind of wrong judgment will be the source of his death!"

Xu Cunren was in a fog when he heard it, and his head hurt.

"You people have a lot of thoughts, and I don't bother to pay attention to your thoughts!

By the way, what you said last time..."

"I've done it for you. I've greeted those colleagues. I can't decide what they think! And the people who promoted this matter are not only people from the East Zhejiang faction.

However, Zhang Yi's crisis was temporarily relieved, and Yang Xian was brought up, and the attention of the court turned to him.

For the time being, no one will pay attention to his little chess piece, unless things change otherwise! "

When Xu Cunren came here, he was waiting for Liu Bowen's words. He was also relieved to hear that Zhang Yi's crisis had been passed on.

"Our Majesty knows that the child has been reported so many times and he still remains silent. Presumably, he already has a way to break the situation. Throwing Yang Xian out is the method His Majesty has prepared!
So don't underestimate our majesty's methods! "

Liu Bowen made a random move, Xu Cunren was taken aback, he lost!

Xu Cunren stood up, shook his head and said with a smile:
"I don't bother to pay attention to all your intrigues. Zhang Yi also said that I should stay in Guozixue to pursue my knowledge with peace of mind. If I were put in the imperial court, I would not even have the bones left!

Alright, I haven't seen that kid for a while, you continue to play tricks, I'm leaving! "

Xu Cunren didn't wait for Liu Bowen's answer, and walked out on his own.

After leaving the door, he thought for a while, and asked someone to send him to Qingxin Temple to report to his disciple.

It's just that when Xu Cunren arrived at Qingxin Temple, he saw Changfu's carriage parked at the entrance of Taoist Temple.

Entering the main hall, faint laughter came from the backyard.

Old Xu shook his head. He thought that his disciple was frightened in the Taoist temple, so he sent him a letter as soon as possible to comfort him.

Who knows, this guy's life is not bad.

When Lao Xu asked Deng Zhongxiu to report, Zhang Yizheng was chatting with the girl from the Chang family.

"My sister's improvement is much better than when she came last time!
It seems that what I taught you, you have not left behind! "

After not seeing Chang for a long time, Zhang Yi observes Chang's improvement.

I haven't seen the girl from Chang's family for a while, and she really looks a lot better.

This kind of good looks comes from the changes in the whole person's spirit and spirit. Unlike other ladies of this era, Chang's has some healthy blood that appears after regular exercise.

He was very pleased, at least Chang listened to his own words.

In this era, there are not many women in big families who can really insist on exercising.

The dietary structure of the ancients, even the rich and the rich, were quite insufficient in terms of protein intake
This has led to the body of many ladies, leaving hidden dangers since childhood....

Zhang Yi only asked Chang's to adjust his diet and insist on exercising, and Chang's improvement immediately became different.

If she can persist for many years, at least in the future when she has children, she will indeed have a little more vitality.

He was talking about Taijiquan, but Chang thought of another technique, and his face flushed immediately:

"You little villain, my sister, I'm like a thief, I was almost smashed by my mother once..."

The ancient Buddhist secret technique: child-giving yoga, Chang naturally only dared to practice it secretly in the boudoir.

Only her confidant girl knows about Changfu.

Zhang Yixiao:
"Sister, just tell me, does it work?"

"I...I...how do I know?

But after you breathe like this, it seems...it seems...your body has improved a lot...

Your yoga technique seems to be able to strengthen your body too! "

Zhang Yi: ...

He really couldn't answer this question, because few people would seriously practice midwifery for a few months, and Chang's training would take ten years. Who knows what she can do?
"My sister is here for something else, right?"

Zhang Yi changed the subject, and at this time Chang's also said the purpose of the trip:
"I heard from my mother that you have been in trouble recently, little brother, and my sister wants to see if there is anything I can do to help you...

I'm a girl, I can't talk to my parents, but if you think it's necessary, you can ask someone to write to the Changfu, and I'll go to the palace to beg him..."

Who he is is self-evident.

There was a hint of emotion in Zhang Yi's eyes.

Traveling to this world, Chang was the first friend he met in Yingtian Mansion.

Fortunately, Chang's is also worthy of everything he has done.

"My sister is a woman, so don't get involved in this matter. My brother has already made a plan for me, it's nothing serious!"

When Chang saw him say that, she also covered her mouth and smiled:

"Sister, I forgot, you are a fairy character, that's okay, I was overthinking!"

Mrs. Chang was about to say something when Deng Zhongxiu came in and asked Xu Cunren to see him.

She stood up immediately and said:

"Since your husband is here, I will take my leave!

I'll learn how to make that dessert with you some other day, is it called a cake, I like it very much..."

"Good talk!"

The girl from the Chang family left with her maid, just in time to bump into Xu Cunren.

The two met the ceremony, and the girl from the Chang family drifted away.

"Fortunately, I'm still worried about you. With you, I can also invite the Buddha!"

Xu Cunren had a deep meaning, and looked back at the Chang family girl.

Chang came to find Zhang Yi many times, proving that she and Zhang Yi had a close relationship.

Although that is inconspicuous, she is also the future princess.

Zhang Yi understood what Xu Cunren meant, and smiled without saying a word:
"Brother Deng, prepare tea for my husband!"

Xu Cunren had never been in the backyard, like his brother Liu Bowen, he visited the backyard first, and sat down after Deng Zhongxiu served tea.

Zhang Yifeng's indifferent appearance made Xu Cunren's original plan to whet his appetite come to nothing!

"Aren't you wondering why I came here?"

"I'll do the math on the trail, sir, he came here with joy!"

In the Taoist temple, Zhang Yi is no longer that naughty student in Guozixue, but seems to be a high Taoist.

In fact, he had grasped Xu Cunren's temperament, if it wasn't a good thing, he probably wouldn't come to him so soon.

Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he couldn't fool this child.

他 说:

"You're lucky, that old boy Liu Bowen helped you out, and there were some accidents in the court, so no one is paying attention to your affairs for the time being!"

Liu Bowen would sell his face, Zhang Yi silently forgot Liu Bowen's favor.

Xu Cunren continued:

"In your matter, some people are still making use of it, and now that the court has changed its direction, naturally no one pays attention to your matter!
It's just that, I never imagined that His Majesty would directly promote Yang Xian to be the right minister of Zhongshu Province...

Do you know what His Majesty thinks? "

puff!
Zhang Yi spit out a mouthful of water, stared at Xu Cunren with wide eyes.

"What did you say, sir?"

"Your Majesty promoted Yang Xian to the right minister of the secretary!"

Zhang Yi: ...

Isn't Yang Xian promoted by Zhu Yuanzhang next year?Moreover, the highest official he served was Zuo Cheng, not the prime minister.
Has the course of history changed drastically again because of the butterfly effect?

Regarding Yang Xian, Zhang Yi didn't have much affection for him.
He is small-minded, vindictive, and most importantly, has no vision. '

Zhu Yuanzhang trusted him very much. In the original historical track, Lao Zhu asked Liu Bowen about Yang Xian's opinion, and Liu Bowen said that he was not suitable to be a prime minister.

But even so, Zhu Yuanzhang finally used Yang Xian.

But Yang Xian, who had not yet become a prime minister, quickly found his own death and was killed by Lao Zhu!
Such a person, what is the reason why the emperor promoted him to be the right minister of Zhongshu province in advance?
That's not logical!

Zhang Yi thought that now that Beiping was still undecided, even if Lao Zhu wanted to arrange power changes in the court, he still had to take into account the thoughts of old brothers like Huaixi.

Especially Li Shanchang's idea!
Zhongshu Sheng would rather arrange Xu Da, a general, than arrange other people. In Zhang Yi's analysis, he thought that,

To a large extent, Lao Zhu sought stability in the early days of the founding of the country to appease the old brothers, and also made compromises to avoid excessive power struggles!
But now, Yang Xian has become the right minister, and his political inclination is the Zhedong faction, so what's the matter?
"Sir, if you know anything, tell me!"

Xu Cunren naturally knew everything, and he also told the rumors about Liu Bowen. After Zhang Yi heard it, his expression became even more strange.

Yang Xian turned against Liu Bowen?

Shouldn't they be working together to dig a hole for Li Shanchang?

For unknown reasons, the political struggle in the early Ming Dynasty changed completely.

Zhang Yi felt more and more that the water in the court hall was too deep.

One carelessness can drown a person.

"Would Yang Xian die faster without the support of the East Zhejiang faction?

Or was it because he had turned against Liu Bowen, so he didn't report to the emperor wholeheartedly, so he escaped?
interesting!It's a good subject to watch!"

Because of the emergence of Yang Xian's variable, after getting out of the crisis, he also had an extra opportunity to peek at the evolution of history, and Zhang Yi showed great interest.

It's just that the people he observed were not in a good mood.

Yingtian Mansion, Yang Mansion.

Yang Xian saw off the last wave of guests and took the hot towels from his family.

Slightly sobered up, he asked:
"What is Liu Ji doing today?"

"Well, Mr. Liu traveled a lot today, mainly to intercede with the Zhang family for the matter of Yan Shenggong's mansion. It is said that he sold Xu Cunren's face..."

"Well, so that old guy really ignored me?"

Yang Xian took advantage of the alcohol to get angry at his family.

"I really didn't expect that, Liu Ji, your tolerance is nothing more than that!

This official is supporting you, when you use this official, treat this official as your best friend.

I won His Majesty's holy family, and I was accidentally promoted to his head, so he was jealous?

What's the use of jealousy, he, Liu Bowen, can't be prime minister, it's because he has no ability!

I'm so angry, old man Liu, don't let me have a chance to fall into my hands..."

"Master, speak carefully!"

The confidant quickly persuaded Yang Xian, and Yang Xian calmed down.

But at this time, someone ran in and handed Yang Xian a letter, and he opened it.

Instantly furious!
