Chapter 664 Clear

Yang Jian took a facekerchief from the side and put it on his neck after soaking it in the warm soup, then leaned back and closed his eyes.

"Why else? Ye Lansheng and Ma Xuanlin wanted to embarrass him, and he chose to use the means of merchants to directly cut off the other party's money. Hehe, this is to let Ye Lansheng and Ma Xuanlin drink the northwest wind?"

Yang Xiusheng was not that sensitive to these twists and turns, and couldn't figure it out in a short time, so he asked, "Isn't King Ling afraid of revenge? Isn't it irrational to do so at such a critical time?"

From Yang Xiusheng's point of view, Ye Lansheng is the head of civil servants today, and it is conceivable how much power he has in his hands. Yang Shu was a little too impulsive to offend such a high-ranking figure at this juncture of the royal family's "big exam". Anyway, Yang Xiusheng's first reaction was to disagree.

But the emperor smiled happily. Yang Xiusheng didn't understand it for a while, but he saw it clearly, and explained: "Yang Shu is justifying his name."

"Rectification of name?"

"That's right. Ye Lansheng asked Ma Xuanlin to move the Song family, a big merchant under Yang Shu. The method was to frame it, but the person who started the frame should not be Ye Lansheng but someone else. I don't know for the time being. Yang Shu insisted on Ye Lansheng just to prove He has the ability to protect those who follow him, and he is also showing his strength, proving that he is not afraid of the leftist Prime Minister and the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Confidence, there are two. One is the power to tighten money and food that I gave him before. With this great power in hand, it is impossible for the local government to stand up to him and fight against him, which in turn weakened Ye Lansheng's influence on the local establishment. After all, following Ye Lansheng may not necessarily bring immediate benefits, but offending Yang Shu will definitely cause immediate pain. It is a good choice between the two.

So Yang Shu didn't hesitate to slap Ye Lansheng and Ma Xuanlin back with a backhand slap, because he was sure that no one in the locality would dare to blatantly oppose him in the short term when he was in power. This can be regarded as timely, very courageous and courageous.

On the other hand it's a bit more complicated. But Yang Shu was able to figure it out so quickly because he must have made a lot of preparations. He has indeed grown a lot over the years when we didn't pay attention.

Uncle, do you want to hear it? "

Yang Xiusheng has been with the emperor for such a long time, and today is the first time he heard the emperor praise someone so bluntly. And it is still boasting of "courage" and "courage".

Yang Xiusheng had also participated in the struggle for the throne, and he knew that courage and courage are two extremely important personal qualities if he wants to be an emperor. Now that the emperor is praising Ling Wang Shu like this, does it mean that Ling Wang Shu has won the emperor's favor like a dark horse?

As a result, Yang Xiusheng even had to rearrange the order of the seven princes in his heart, and now he naturally wanted to hear what the emperor had to say about this "dark horse".

"Appreciate further details."

The emperor continued to close his eyes, with the corners of his mouth raised, and said with a smile: "The second reason is actually Ye Lansheng himself. There was a court meeting before Ye Lansheng stood up and wanted me to take back the order to delegate the power of tightening money and food to Yang Shu." , Uncle, do you still remember this?"

"Remember." Yang Xiusheng is now personally defending the emperor, so he will naturally follow him to court, remembering what the emperor said.

"At that time, I thought it was very strange. I deliberately stayed in the post for several days, just to give feedback to the people below. It stands to reason that Ye Lansheng could not have guessed my plan, but he still jumped out to object. And the interesting thing is The Ministry of Finance, which was supposed to take the lead, was silent. So I clicked on the name of Bai Changqing, Minister of the Ministry of Accounting, to hear what he meant. It turned out to be very interesting, Bai Changqing actually sang against Ye Lansheng.

Bai Changqing has always followed Ye Lansheng closely, how could she suddenly sing the opposite tune? So I asked someone to check these two people and found two very interesting places. One is that Bai Changqing seems to be deliberately avoiding Ye Lansheng from before, preferring to be labeled as a "fear of internal affairs" rather than getting too close to Ye Lansheng. The intention of drawing a boundary line is obvious.

Another interesting thing is that I was not the only one who investigated Bai Changqing, but also a group, which was later identified by my people as the hands of my youngest son Yang Shu.

Hehe, this shows that Yang Shu has long been suspicious of Bai Changqing's abnormal behavior. After digging deeper, I found out that Bai Changqing wanted to draw a line with Ye Lansheng so abnormally, but she was actually afraid. "

Yang Xiusheng became more and more confused as he listened. He shook his head and said, "Are you afraid? Why is Bai Changqing afraid of Ye Lansheng? Are you worried that Ye Lansheng will cause trouble and burn him?"

"That's right. I'm just worried about getting burned. And this fire will indeed burn the left side of Ye Lansheng to death." Although Yang Jian was half lying in the warm soup and described it as leisurely, when he said these words, he lost his mind. It was as cold as ice scum.

"Ye Lansheng? What can he provoke?"

"Ye Lansheng secretly connected a group of civil servants, hoping to keep the imminent power of money and grain tightening in the household department and be controlled by Bai Changqing. As the left prime minister in charge of civil servants, he can indirectly hold this power in his hands."

"Does he want to regain the right to speak?"

"That's right. But if it's just like this, Bai Changqing wouldn't be afraid, and the morale of the Jianchuan victory happened to be in the south at that time. Even with the tight power of money and food, it was not enough to let the civil servants ride on the head of the army again. Besides, Yang Yansi was hidden by us. After getting up, the Ministry of War is now actually supporting me. Unless the war is over, the military's prestige will not be inferior to that of civilian officials.

So Ye Lansheng came up with an idea of ​​pulling out his salary from the bottom of the pot, and it was this idea that scared Bai Changqing so much that he didn't dare to speak or accept it, so he could only avoid Ye Lansheng. "

Yang Xiusheng frowned. He heard the undisguised killing intent from the emperor's words, and asked curiously, "What does he want?"

"Ye Lansheng intends to rely on the power of tight money and food to tighten the supply of the frontier army, and choose a coincidence to let the long supply line of the frontier army have a window period, so as to drag the frontier army down or into the mud. At that time, Zuo Yuliang will only Being able to return to the Fangzhuo Pass declares that the military strategy in the south has completely failed. Afterwards, the civilian officials will be able to use the "peace talks" as an excuse to persecute the army and persecute me, the emperor."

"Ye Lansheng is looking for his own death!" Yang Xiusheng was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that the dignified prime minister of the country, the head of civil servants, could be so selfish. It's a child's play, its evil, even the cultivator of the evil sect is far behind him.

The emperor continued to close his eyes, he was already angry, and now he is very calm. He continued to laugh and said, "Ye Lansheng probably wanted to win the power of tightening money and grain first and then force Bai Changqing to submit, but unexpectedly, Bai Changqing directly pushed him back and turned around to join Yang Shu. Tsk tsk, probably out of anger, Ye Lansheng was about to beat Yang Shu Shu, but in the end, Yang Shu slapped him back with his backhand."

"In this way, King Ling is so hard on Ye Lansheng and Ma Xuanlin that he is sure that they will not be able to dance for a few days?"
