"Of course I will come, after all Mr. Li Ge is still waiting for me, isn't he?"

Yang Yan sneered at Li Xian coldly, standing there with slightly lowered eyes looking at the old man sitting cross-legged on the dry straw.

When the two met last time, Li Xian was well-known for his official robes, and his appearance was exquisite and proud, but before January came, he fell into the current situation of dark and crude prison clothes, wooden hairpins and buns, which seems to be true. Looks like a skinny mean old man.

It's a lie that Li Xian doesn't have mixed feelings in his heart, but if someone asks him if he regrets it, his answer will definitely be: regret it.

He regretted that he did not act first when this seemingly innocuous scholar entered the official position, and regretted that he did not kill the little emperor and Yang Yanqing during the chaos in the inner court five years ago.

"What? Looking at me like this, Li Ge always doesn't recognize me?" Yang Yanqing took a few steps forward, he was like the only warmth in this dark dungeon, but his eyes were full of love for Li Xian Sneering maliciously, "Mr. Li Ge and I have a deep relationship, right?"

Since Yang Yanqing came to power, the endless stream of killers and the constant digging and framing by the court can be called the source of death.

"It's just a wrong move, Master Yang rushed up to sarcasm, this stomach is really not very high." Li Xian sneered, with disdain in his eyes, "This is the reason why children from poor families are always only worthy of being sharp weapons in the hands of aristocratic families! With such a narrow vision, how can you bear the responsibility of a country!"

Yang Yanqing laughed out loud when he heard the words, and laughed so hard that he couldn't hold the stove in his hand firmly: "Old Li Ge has made a mess in Daqing's court, yet he can still talk about the country and society in front of Yang with a shy face? "

"Do you think that the imperial court will be your authority after the fall of an old man? This old man would like to advise—" Li Xian smiled coldly on his lips, with a kind of condescension, "Young man, don't be complacent." It's too early. Be careful that one day the wind will blow your back, and you will fall to your death without a place to bury you."

"Thank you Mr. Li Ge for your advice. Even if Mr. Yang stumbles one day, Mr. Li will walk far ahead of Mr. Yang. I'm afraid we won't see that day." Yang Yanqing walked in front of Li Xian, leaned over and whispered , "Marquis Weiyuan, Zhenfusi, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and even Elder Qin Ge are all on my side now... Guess how long Elder Yan Ge can hold on? Or should Li Ge Lao thinks that the powerful clans will really use the power of the clan to contend against the imperial power?"

"Yang Yanqing, do you want to disrupt the government to the end?!" Li Xian stood up suddenly, the shackles on his feet rattled, he rushed towards Yang Yanqing, and even wanted to strangle Yang Yanqing to death in this prison where the sun was out In the room, "The aristocratic family is the foundation of Daqing! The cornerstone of the country!! How dare you!!"

Yang Yanqing stood there without moving, his eyes looked like he was teasing a juggler on the street, the chain was very strong, and the length also shackled Li Xian within a very small range.

Yang Yanqing raised the corners of his lips: "Even if I mess up the government. Maybe one day, when I get tired of being a minister of this rank, Yang may be able to take a look at the scenery of the world sitting on the throne with the help of King Jingbei. "

"King Jingbei?" Li Xian seemed to have heard some joke, "It's not enough to support a little emperor, but you actually set your mind on King Jingbei? No wonder there was the decree of giving marriage back then, Mr. Yang It’s really deep-minded and power-hungry.”

"I don't dare to compare myself with Mr. Li Ge." Yang Yanqing said modestly, "Compared to Mr. Li Ge, Yang claims to be a smart person. In this world, the merits and demerits of life, to me and other literati, are only a few pens left in the history books for future generations to judge."

"It's just that the four crimes on Li Ge's body have been made known to the world with your pleading guilty. Now all the students in the world know what kind of villain Li Shengxian used to be. The rapid changes are really sad and deplorable..."

Li Xian clenched his teeth and lowered his head not to look into Yang Yanqing's eyes, even the blue veins on his cheeks could reveal his anger and forbearance.

He can bear it, what Yang Yanqing said now is only a moment of quickness, as long as he can bear it...

"By the way, doesn't Mr. Li Ge have any doubts about why he was escorted to my Zhao Prison?" Yang Yanqing's voice came to Li Xian's ears again, and every word was like a steel needle and a sharp knife piercing into Li Xian's heart, "Just in time Tomorrow, Li Xian, the criminal who was imprisoned in the Dali Temple Prison, will be executed and beheaded. To be able to die as a powerful elder of the Daqing Dynasty is not a bad thing for this thief who used to only know how to burglarize and kill people. This life is in vain."

"Are you right?"

Murder is heartbreaking, but that's it.

"Yang-Yan-Qing!" Li Xian was heartbroken, and his voice was hoarse with hatred and resentment, "Zhuzi is despicable!!! Don't you feel ashamed of the sage?!"

"If I really cared about my reputation, I wouldn't have come to where I am today. As for being ashamed of the sages..." Yang Yanqing said in a leisurely tone, "The appearance of Mr. Li Ge breaking down and crying makes Yang so happy, and Yang can only go back at night. Worship two more sticks of incense to the sages of Confucius and Mencius to accuse the sages."

As he spoke, Yang Yanqing paced slowly in this spacious prison cell, raising his hand to caress the cold wall: "It's just that Yang's hospitality is not good enough, the winter is cold, and he will definitely order to go down to the partition wall to burn coal to ensure that Li Ge lived comfortably through this winter, and every winter that follows."

"Elder Ge probably doesn't know how to kill himself by biting his tongue? The person who bites his tongue doesn't die immediately, but dies of suffocation because a large amount of blood gushes out and blocks his throat. Day and night around Elder Ge's cell If the prison guards are required to watch in shifts, the elder Ge will definitely not fall into the tragic situation of suffocation and death."

"I waited for five years for this cell to come to Mr. Li Ge as I wished. Don't worry, Mr. Ge will not have a single trace of it when Mr. Ge will live quietly and silently until the year of his destiny. It can float to the elder Ge who is still alive."

It was only then that Li Xian realized that he didn't have anything that could be called a sharp weapon at hand, and the length of the iron chains that locked his limbs just controlled him within the range that he couldn't hit the wall and touch the ground.

He couldn't even hold death in his own hands!

Yang Yanqing withdrew his hand and looked at Li Xian, who had a slumped face and numb eyes, and said with a smile: "As a colleague, Yang will definitely die for Li Ge's old... retirement."

After Yang Yanqing finished speaking, he seemed to carefully appreciate Li Xian's distraught expression, squatted down not far in front of him, took out a dagger from his sleeve, and gently placed it on Li Xian, who was close but far away. On the ground at the horizon.

"... What exactly do you want to get when you come here today?"

Li Xian's bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at Yang Yanqing who turned around and wanted to leave.

He didn't believe that Yang Yanqing had worked so hard to make such an arrangement, it was really just to torture and humiliate an enemy, he must have a plan!

Yang Yanqing turned his head slightly, and said softly: "Then it depends on what you are willing to say."

……

After leaving the cell, Yang Yanqing walked out on the Huaizhou, even with a heater in his hand, the cold breath of the dungeon still made Yang Yanqing's lips turn pale.

"My lord, what should we do with Prince Zhan's son?" Huaizhou went to the palace a few days ago to ask about this matter, but was interrupted, and after several days of busy work, he didn't bother to ask Yang Yanqing what he meant.

"Eunuch Xiao..." Yang Yanqing thought for a while, "Put it in the cell next to Mr. Li Ge. After all, heating in winter consumes charcoal fires, and our Zhenfu Division is not rich."

Huaizhou thought about Yang Yanqing's meaning, and understood: "Your Excellency is considerate, we really don't have the spare money to treat the father-in-law's injuries, but fortunately, the prince's people are straightforward and know how to act, people can't die."

It's just that it will be more painful-it's just right to be placed in Li Xian's cell next to the wall.

"Good." Yang Yanqing nodded in satisfaction.

***

As the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month approaches, things in the court and China are gradually coming to an end, and all ministries are making overall plans and planning for unexpected situations that may arise during the New Year's holiday.

Especially this year is far colder than previous years. As for the prevention and treatment of snow disasters, Yang Yan asked all the state capitals to draw up regulations and sent them to the emperor's imperial case early in the morning.

Xiao Yun looked at the thick stacks of papers in front of him, and said in a daze, "Sir, in previous years, didn't the state government submit it to the cabinet for discussion, and finally decide on an implementation regulation?"

"Mr. Yan Ge has been on sick leave for many days. Qin Ge is old and his energy is really not good in winter. Didn't His Majesty send the imperial doctor to see him a few days ago?" Yang Yanqing put his slender fingers on the On this stack of papers, the smile is very gentle, "His Majesty will seal the pen on the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, and officials of all ministries will also enter the New Year's rest. Within three days, please be sure to bring out a charter."

"Natural disasters are ruthless. Every decision of His Majesty is related to the lives and wealth of tens of millions of Daqing people. Don't be careless."

"Without the elder in the cabinet...will those subordinate officials stop working?" Xiao Yun frowned, "Could it be that in the future, the elder will have a headache and brain fever, and my cabinet will be paralyzed?"

"Your Majesty is smart." Yang Yanqing clapped his hands and praised, "It's always been like this when the cabinet is hindered."

Xiao Yun put down his pen, straightened his back and looked at Yang Yanqing seriously: "But none of them have a husband. As far as I am concerned, a husband alone is enough to take on the responsibility of the cabinet."

"Which script did your Majesty read to use the rhetoric on my minister?" Yang Yanqing laughed, but he began to help Xiao Yun sort out the mountain of transcripts on the imperial case.

Xiao Yun muttered unconvinced: "Obviously it was Mr. who left in the study last time..."

How can there be such a thing as a book in the palace, Xiao Yun secretly hid it like a single seedling in the imperial study, not all of them were peeked in the political and law books when Mr. supervised his studies, and then forgot to take them away!

Yang Yanqing smiled, very confidently: "I can see it, but His Majesty can't see it. It's nerve-wracking to watch too much love affairs."

Xiao Yun felt that Mister had read the scripts a lot, but isn't his mind better than all the ministers in the court combined?This made it clear that only the emperor's teacher was allowed to light the fire and the emperor was not allowed to light the lamp. The young emperor puffed up his cheeks, pursed his mouth and stopped talking.

Yang Yanqing went to the chair next to him and sat down slowly, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the way of the monarch and his ministers should indeed be 'the ministers do everything and the emperor has nothing to do', but it should never be 'the ministers do everything and the emperor does not know'. Even though people weigh each other and hinder the imperial power so far, if His Majesty entrusts the great power to one of the ministers, wouldn’t it be like repeating the same mistakes and taking the old path of the former prime minister’s dictatorship?”

"Will sir be the same as the former prime minister?" Xiao Yun looked at Yang Yanqing seriously.

Yang Yanqing was in a trance for a moment. When he first met Xiao Yun, that child was wearing an ill-fitting prince's suit. His face was yellow and thin, but his eyes were very stubborn like a little beast unwilling to accept his fate. It reminded him of himself back then.

He met his teacher when he was in a desperate situation, and because he was sheltered by others after being exposed to the rain, he opened an umbrella for Xiao Yun back then, and has protected him till now.

But Xiao Yun is not him after all.

Tianhuang nobles, young emperors.

Yang Yanqing didn't know what would happen when the cub grew up to be him one day, but at least at this moment, he was proud and looking forward to that day from the bottom of his heart.

"Your Majesty, this is your world, you can do whatever you want." Yang Yanqing sighed with a smile, coughed a few times and then said slowly, "It's only been five years, Your Majesty should let the minister rest. "

Xiao Yun's hands hidden under the table tightened and wrinkled a large piece of the good material of the black dragon robe. He suddenly felt a little scared, but also faintly had a kind of excited anticipation eager to try.

Compared with the previous verbal hints and insinuations, this time Xiao Yun really realized one thing.

Now the gentleman who really holds the power of the government and speaks his mind is delegating power to him.

The author has something to say:

Yang Yanqing: Tired and tired, why not go home and read the storybook

-

"The minister does everything but the king has nothing to do" from "Shen Zi"

Decentralization is inevitable, but the little emperor is still young, and this road has to be walked~
