Today, Muzi is a big seal, and now it is more than a little bit, but Muzi is still fighting at night. During this time, Muzi almost broke out with 20,000 words a day, and now there is no manuscript in the big envelope, so he can only code desperately. Brothers, with the support of a monthly pass! )——
After returning to Chang'an City from the Bashang camp, Tian Lingzi kept a gloomy face. I think he is a lieutenant of the Divine Army, an envoy of the Privy Council, and he occupies two of the four noble positions in Beijing, and he is the father of the Son of Heaven. In the past, the person who wanted to give him money had to line up, and he would only accept it depending on his mood, but today, he Tian Lingzi took two million yuan to give it to Zhenguojun, and the other party actually picked and chose and asked him to exchange it for copper money.
He wanted to visit Li Jing in a low voice, but these short-eyed Qiu Ba actually dared to drink nonsense at him, and let out wild words to let him go.
He had never suffered such a humiliating feeling since his accession to the throne.
This emotion lingered in his chest for a long time, but in the end it was suppressed by him. Tian Lingzi was able to climb from a pony workshop to today's position, not by blindly greeting and stammering. He has a good vision, and he can always grasp the opportunity at critical moments, and even more rely on the emotion between him and the little emperor that far exceeds that between Junju. to get to where it is today. In the late Tang Dynasty. Most of the eunuchs in the Tang Palace came from Fujian. It can be said that there are nine Fujianese out of ten eunuchs in Daming Palace. Such as Yang Fugong, Yang Fuguang and other prominent eunuchs in the palace are all from Fujian. However, Tian Lingzi is a native of Xuzhou, Henan, so he entered the palace on the spot, and even if he worked hard to make efforts to Lu Shang, he could only worship an old eunuch surnamed Tian with a very low grade.
But with his vision and the special emotion between him and today, he has become the most powerful eunuch in the palace step by step. In Datang, except for today's son Li Yi. He's the hottest number two. Even Lu Xi, the prime minister of the DPRK, relied on his help to sit in a good position.
But Tian Lingzi was not carried away by power, but today's experience made him suddenly sober up.
"Go to the Prime Minister's Mansion!" Tian Lingzi sat in the carriage and suddenly shouted at the guards outside.
Along the way, Tian Lingzi sat in the carriage with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking.
Yu Cong's father is Yu Ao, and the Yu family is famous for its family history and history. Yu Ao ascended to the rank of Jinshi when he was young, and successively served in the shogunate of many feudal towns. In the sixth year of Yuanhe, he really worshiped the imperial history. In the transfer of the hall, the two members of the Licang Department of Honor, the 10,000-year-old order, worship the right Shilang, out of the history of Shangzhou Thorn. In the fourth year of Changqing, he entered the Ministry of Officials. In the year, it was moved to the middle of the matter. Looking for the squire of the Ministry of Transfer, the Ministry of Relocation and Punishment, out of the Xuanshu Observation Envoy, and the Imperial History Zhongcheng.
Yu Ao's four sons, Yu Qiu, Yu Xuan, Yu Gui, Yu Cong, all Jinshi and first. The latter four sons are all officials of a town, Yu Cong was the first petty official, and he has not been allowed to use weight, and he is a jinshi in the middle. Because many scholars were reluctant to marry the daughters of the royal family at that time, the emperor had to choose a son-in-law among the jinshi. At the beginning, Yu Cong was edicted to marry Princess Yongfu and worship Ma Duwei, but Princess Yongfu was pampered, and Tang Xuanzong thought that "this can be a scholar's wife", so he married Princess Guangde to Yu Cong. Successive officers and soldiers of the Ministry of Soldiers, Zhudao salt and iron transport envoys, Xiantong eight years of official to Tongping Zhangshi. was later framed by Wei Baoheng, and the Yu clan was degraded. After Li Yi succeeded to the throne, the Yu clan was reactivated, and Yu Cong was reinstated.
In addition to Yu Ao's death, Yu Cong was the prime minister in the court, Yu Qiu was implicated in the Lingnan Rongguan Economic Envoy after being implicated in the Yazhou Thorn History, and now he has been promoted to the Lingnan West Road Jiedu Envoy and Tongping Zhangshi, Cangwu County Gong. Yu Xuan was originally the envoy of the Ziqing Festival, and later demoted to the Sima of Dengzhou, and then reused as the defense envoy of Fengzhou, and now he has been promoted to the Zhenwu Army Jiedu Envoy and the Tongping Zhangshi, and the Duke of Weiguo. Yu Guiyuan served as the Hunan Observation Envoy, and was later demoted to the Yuanzhou Thorn History, and then reused as the Shannan Dongdao Jiedu Envoy and Tongping Zhangshi, Yongan County Gong.
After Yu Cong returned to the court, he awarded the prince and the young master, worshiped the right servant to shoot, added the same Ping Zhangshi, and entered the political hall as the phase.
The entire Yu family is now extremely beautiful, although Yu Cong can only rank fourth in the political affairs. But on the one hand, Yu Cong is a concubine, and on the other hand, the four brothers of the Yu family are all in high positions. Four brothers, one prime minister, three envoys.
When Tian Lingzi's carriage arrived, someone had already reported Yu Cong to the house. Yu Cong was a little strange after hearing this, although Tian Lingzi was in power, Yu Cong's relationship with him was not too close. In the past, the two had no contact, why did Tian Lingzi come to visit in person now.
Princess Guangde was playing with Yu Cong, chatting about family life, and next to her sat the beautiful and intelligent kabuki Yu Luozhen that the princess had found for Yu Cong. Although Princess Guangde is a royal princess, she is not an unruly princess like Princess Yongfu. At the beginning, Yu Cong was demoted to the history of Shaozhou's assassination. Princess Guangde accompanied her, and was careful to prevent Yu Cong from being killed all the way. A eunuch sent poisoned wine, and the princess scolded the eunuch, spilled the poisoned wine, and saved Yu Cong's life. After returning to Beijing, he even took the initiative to find a beautiful woman like Yu Luozhen to be a concubine for her husband.
"Tian Lingzi is here, it must be because of the matter of the Zhenguo Army. The concubine heard that Li Jing's life and death were unknown now, and the Zhenguo army was furious, like cooking oil in a blazing fire, and if she was not careful, she didn't know what kind of disaster Lu Dao would cause. I heard that the Son of Heaven admired Li Jing very much, and this time Tian Lingzi assassinated Li Jing twice in a row, or when he had come forward to shelter Tian Lingzi before, this matter had already caused the anger of the Son of Heaven. "Princess Guangde is graceful and luxurious, only in her early thirties, and it is when her beauty is mature, and she wears a large-sleeved robe to add to her nobility, shaking the dice while chuckling to her husband for analysis.
Yu Luozhen poured wine for the two on the side, and the loser was punished with a glass of wine, and then he also interjected: "Today, Tian Lingzi suffered a big loss, and the emperor ordered him to send two million yuan to the Zhenguo Army. It's not even done yet. ”
Yu Cong is the youngest of the four Yu brothers. At this time, he was only in his forties. The stature is medium and slightly tall, with a slightly pale complexion, thick eyebrows and big eyes, five locks of long beard, and a graceful demeanor. As the deputy chief of Shangshu Province, how could he not understand the current situation.
After Li Jing's assassination and serious injury, there are now fierce feelings among the officers and men of the Zhenguo Army outside, and Ximen Sigong, Yang Fugong, and Zhang Tai inside. Even in the political hall, the direction of the wind is now changing. In the past, Lu Xian had Tian Lingzi's support, which can be said to be a bit of a one-handed feeling in the political hall, but now, Zheng Jian has united with Wang Duo, and Lu Xian is also pressing on Lu Xian step by step. The entire palace and political hall have found great changes because of Li Jing's assassination.
After thinking about it for a while, he understood that now in the political hall, except for the old Li Wei, who doesn't care about everything, Yu Cong is still neutral. did not participate in the battle between the two cousins Lu Xi and Zheng Jin.
Not only is he neutral, but more importantly. His brother Yu Xuan is still Li Jing's teacher, how can he say something to the generals of the Zhenguo Army.
"Husband, are you really going to help Tian Lingzi? Or just say that you are not feeling well, and forget it. "Princess Guangde doesn't have a good impression of Tian Lingzi.
Yu Cong held a chess piece in his hand, but he didn't put it down for a long time, and sighed and said: "At the moment, state affairs are important, if the Zhenguo Army really makes something."
Tian Lingzi's carriage had just stopped in front of the house, and before the gatekeeper had come to send the post in, Yu Cong had already personally greeted him outside the door.
"The wind is cold and the night is cold, but Tian Gong personally came to the door, making the burrow shine!"
Tian Lingzi got out of the car and handed it over, rarely with a little politeness on his face. "I'm still worried that Yu Xiangguo is still handling official business in the political hall, it seems that God favors us."
"Tian Gong is serious, come, Tian Gong will follow me into the house."
Tian Lingzi stepped forward and affectionately took Yu Cong's arm and entered the Yu Mansion together, Yu Cong sneered in his heart, this treatment, it is estimated that in addition to the Son of Heaven, Tian Lingzi will be like this to him alone. However, he knew in his heart that Tian Lingzi was so enthusiastic, but he just asked for him.
Yu Cong did not invite Tian Lingzi into the study, but only led him to the flower hall where the guests were entertained, which inevitably seemed a little polite. Tian Lingzi had no dissatisfaction on his face, just a smile on his face. The two sat down separately, the maid served them tea, and then retreated, Yu Cong picked up the teacup, and asked with a smile knowingly: "I don't know what Tian Gong is visiting today?" ”
Tian Lingzi smiled: "I heard that Yu Xianggang received a beautiful lady, but our family didn't know that it was rude to forget the gift, and I passed by today to make up for it." As he spoke, he took out a stack of flying money from several large cabinets in Chang'an from his sleeve and sent it to him.
Yu Cong only glanced at it, and his eyelids couldn't help jumping. There were ten flying coins in front of him, all of which were the numbers of the major cabinets in Chang'an, and each of them was actually as high as 100,000 yuan. With such a large amount of flying money, it is estimated that people like Tian Lingzi can only have it. One million guan, this Tian Lingzi is a big deal.
"What does Tian Gong mean by this, but he just accepts one side room, how dare he accept such a big gift." The money was not easy to collect, so Yu Cong pushed it back.
Tian Lingzi hurriedly stretched out his hand and pressed Yu Cong's hand: "Yu Gong, listen to our family." ”
Saying that, he sighed and frowned and said quietly: "It's not a secret, in the past, we did have some festivals with Li Zhenguo, and the previous matter in Gaoling County was made by my second brother, and His Majesty has already reprimanded us for this matter." We were originally going to wait for Li Zhenguo to enter the city, and then set up a banquet with Li Zhenguo to accompany him, and smile and smite. But who knows that Li Zhenguo was suddenly assassinated in Ba, and now everyone says that I instructed this matter, and I am really wronged. But what's worse is that that assassin was indeed my person before, but we swear to Tian Tian that we really didn't instruct him to assassinate Li Jing. Now we are full of mouths, and we can't tell if we jump into the Yellow River. ”
Tian Lingzi seemed to be a lot haggard, and these words had been blocked in his heart, and they were indeed sincere.
"Now Your Majesty and everyone agree that I did it, and I can't explain it. But our family really wants to settle this matter, and His Majesty asked us to send money to the Zhenguo Army to appease us, but we didn't refuse, but the Zhenguo Army has too many prejudices against us. We are now also bent on calming down this matter, Yu Xiang has a prestige in the court, and there is a brother of Li Jing's teacher Yu Shuai, so this matter is all entrusted to Yu Xiang's mediation, and our family is grateful. A little money, Wanwang to accept, even if it is a little hard work. ”
Yu Cong knew that it seemed that Tian Lingzi felt a crisis, and now he wanted to deal with the matter as soon as possible, so as not to continue and get worse.
"In that case, so-and-so did his best." Yu Cong nodded. (To be continued......)
