Imperial Exam Daily

"Your trick is really good and bad!"

After the court ceremony, Li Cheng and Yang Ye visited Yang's house together, and when they talked about today's court ceremony, they both smiled.

"You have played a trick with the Song family, how can you be sure that he will recommend Xue Linlang?"

Yang Ye said: "The noble girls in Beijing who are of the right age were selected by the emperor. At that time, according to Xue Linlang's qualifications, she would definitely be selected, but the crown prince helped her, so unfortunately she failed the list. Among the noble girls, she was the only one who could be recommended. Who else can there be?"

Li Cheng hid her smile: "Xue Linlang's beauty is indeed suitable for marriage in the Northwest, so let's sit and watch the tigers fight right now."

Yang Ye said: "Xue Linlang must be having a lot of trouble at home at this time, I have to send some gifts to the door to congratulate."

As expected by Yang Ye, at this time the Xue family was in a row, Xue Linlang and Aunt Xiao cried together, on the surface it was the crowning of the princess, the supreme glory, but who didn't know the struggle under the reputation.

The terrain in the northwest is dangerous, and the living conditions are not as good as in the Central Plains. Xue Linlang has been pampered since she was a child. If she married in the past, even if she married the leader of the Bata tribe, her living conditions would be better. There are many bad habits, how can a well-educated lady stand it.

Xue Linlang's eyes were swollen from crying: "If you marry to the Northwest, your daughter might as well die!"

The mother and daughter took Xue Yinsheng in turn and cried, seeing that he was just embarrassed, but in the end they didn't say how to deal with it, Xue Linlang forced each other to die.

Unexpectedly, one sentence angered Xue Yinsheng: "You don't want to die, but you want the entire family of Xue's family to die. The princess appointed by the emperor is a favor for the Xue family. If you die, you will defy the order!"

Xue Yinsheng now has such a daughter under his hands. He watched Linlang grow up, and Zixiang couldn't bring him back. He was naturally reluctant and felt infinitely guilty about his daughter. After all, he, the father, could not keep it in the court Her own daughter also resented the Song family even more, and actually tripped him secretly.

Now that Xue Linlang said this, his guilt lessened and his anger deepened. There is no one in the Xue family who can worry about it now. They all only care about themselves and never personally consider his difficulties.

He let out a long breath, and leaned weakly on the grand teacher's chair. If Zixiang's mother was still there, she would definitely understand his inability to control himself.

Xue Linlang knew she had said something wrong, so she lowered her voice, "Father..."

"If you want to blame, you can blame the Song family. The old man doesn't send his daughter to get married, but he misses people from other families."

Xue Linlang was shocked when she heard the words: "Father, since you know that the Song family is responsible, why don't you confront the Song family and let your daughter be bullied for nothing."

Xue Yinsheng cast a sidelong glance at her. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have been slaughtered like this!

"Master, Mr. Yang, please see me."

"Yang Ye?" Xue Yinsheng got up from his chair: "How could he come at this hour, hurry up, please go to the main hall."

"Yes."

Xue Yinsheng glared at the mother and daughter: "Stay well in the house, don't come out and cry and shame yourself."

After saying that, Xue Yinsheng went to the front hall, and Aunt Xiao looked at her daughter: "Who is this Master Yang?"

"Mother is confused, she is Xue Zixiang's husband."

"What is he here for? Could it be that he wants to bring Xue Zixiang back."

Xue Linlang was worried, fearing that the fact that she sent someone to find Xue Zixiang's troubles would come out, she dared not tell her mother about it, so she sent her mother back to the house and sneaked to the front hall by herself.

Xue Yinsheng immediately changed his smiling face when he came to the front hall: "What kind of wind brought Mr. Yang here?"

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you make tea for Mr. Yang?"

The corners of Yang Ye's lips twitched slightly: "Your Majesty, congratulations to Ms. Xue for being honored as the Princess Heding, representing Da Jichao and the Bata Department to accept the marriage. The Xue family contributed a lot to this battle."

Xue Yinsheng's smile froze, and he gradually collected his face, his complexion was not very good-looking: "Master Yang came all the way to congratulate?"

Yang Ye chuckled lightly: "If there is nothing important, the lower officials will not bother Mr. Xue."

He beckoned, and the accompanying attendants pressed the two prodigal sons up: "I wonder if Mr. Xue knows these two?"

Xue Yinsheng didn't know why, but he knew that they were not good people when he saw their out-of-shape appearance: "How could this old man know such a person?"

"Your Excellency Xue doesn't know you, why don't you ask Miss Xue to come out and see if you recognize her?"

Xue Linlang, who was hiding outside the hall and eavesdropping, gasped, thinking of something that would work, she was very anxious, and was about to leave, but she stepped on something and made a noise.

"Don't come in with me!"

Xue Linlang shivered for a moment, and walked in slowly: "Father."

"What are you doing out there?"

"I, I just passed by outside."

Xue Yinsheng gave her a sideways look: "Since you are here, then take a look at these two people. Master Yang said you know each other."

Yang Ye picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Father, who is this person? How, how did my daughter know him?"

Seeing this, the two people kneeling on the ground rushed over and grabbed Xue Linlang's skirt: "Miss, you gave us 20 taels of silver that day, and asked us to block Mrs. Yang's husband in the Senguang Temple. Us!"

Xue Linlang panicked and kicked the man: "Go away, where did you come from!"

"father!"

Seeing this, Xue Yinsheng said, "Master Yang, is there any misunderstanding in this?"

Yang Ye raised his eyebrows. He knew that Xue Yinsheng would defend Xue Linlang for the sake of face, and he didn't expect to watch Xue Yinsheng punish Xue Linlang face to face. He was only responsible for making Xue's family more lively.

"It's fine if there's a misunderstanding. Thinking about the relationship between Ms. Xue and Axi, and Ms. Xue being educated and reasonable, she shouldn't do such a vicious thing." Yang Ye sighed: "Poor us, Axi, who suffers everywhere. People calculate."

Xue Yinsheng's face was very ugly, Yang Ye finished his sour words, and didn't hold back: "These two people will stay in Lord Xue's house after they are dismissed from office, you must interrogate them carefully, don't make any more misunderstandings. I'm sorry to bother you, so I'll take my leave."

"Send the adults out."

After Yang Ye left, Xue Linlang hurried forward and said, "Father, Yang Ye wanted to frame his daughter when he sent two people to the door. He didn't take your father-in-law into consideration at all. You are still thinking about Zixiang. He married Such a husband's family is deeply influenced by his ears and eyes, and he is determined..."

Before he finished speaking, Xue Yinsheng, who had been watching Yang Ye go out with his hands behind his back, suddenly slapped Xue Linlang backhanded.

With a bang, Xue Linlang was in a daze.

"The old man just took care of the Xue family's face and didn't expose it. You really think that the old man doesn't know your low tricks. Without sufficient evidence, do you think Yang Ye would come to the door so rashly? Zixiang is your own brother. How did you do this?" Come on like this!" Xue Yin's beard trembled with anger: "Go to the house and stay with the old man, and you are not allowed to come out until you go to have a kiss!"

Xue Linlang cried, "Father!"

"Send the lady back to the house!"

In August, Ji Chao and Princess Ding got married. Emperor Wen thought that Xue Linlang would never return to Beijing after her marriage, and he was married to the Bata tribe.

Yang Ye took Axi to watch the fun on the streets of the capital. From a distance, he could see Xue Yinsheng, who was giving away his marriage, with a frozen expression, and Aunt Xiao fainted several times from crying.

Ah Xi watched the actions of the two and remained silent, Yang Ye said, "But do you think I've done it too well?"

"Evil comes with evil."

Yang Ye patted Axi's head: "General Ji has already returned to the court from the northwest, presumably Tan Shengchang sent Princess Heding to the Bata Department, and the old general has also arrived in the capital."

Ah Xi is looking forward to it. He hasn't seen his grandfather for many years, and now his real relatives are only his grandfather. Presumably, when he comes back this time, his grandfather will not go to the border. When the time comes, there will be another person in the capital who can take care of him. Live better.

In the middle of the month, the army returned to the court, and Yang Ye also met the rumored old general Ji for the first time.

The general is over fifty years old and has been stationed in the frontier all the year round. His face looks much older than the average fifty-fifth man, but his sharp eyes make him look refreshed. He is dressed in court clothes, even without armor, he is It is also difficult to hide the mighty body.

Being placed in the ranks of military officers, he is much more dignified than all the military officers stationed in Beijing, not to mention compared with the ranks of civilian officials. Yang Ye sneaked a few glances at the old general who came out to pay respects to the emperor. He was neither humble nor overbearing, and he was proud , it's no wonder that Xue Yinsheng has been jealous for many years.

"General Ji has been stationed in the frontier for many years, and now he finally returns to Beijing."

Ji Chong knelt down and couldn't afford it: "The old minister is ashamed of the late emperor and the emperor. He lost this battle and shamed Ji Chao. Please forgive me!"

"The general has fought for the Ji Dynasty for many years, and it is inevitable that he will lose in the battle. If I still punish the general, wouldn't it be to chill the hearts of the soldiers stationed on the frontier."

"The old minister thanked the emperor." Ji Chong's voice was a little drawn out, he had been guarding for many years, and the defeat hit him much harder than anyone else.

"Your Majesty is merciful. General Ji has worked hard and made great achievements. The late emperor once sent General Ji to guard the territory of Ji Dynasty for the emperor. Now that the frontiers have been defeated and the Bata tribe is rampant. Logically speaking, General Ji can't get away with it. Even if the emperor cares about General Ji You can’t avoid the important and ignore the minor, otherwise how can you explain it to the people of the world!”

Seeing the civil servants who jumped out to speak out, Yang Ye knew that these old people would not give up so easily. He heard from Tan Shengchang that the old general was vigorous and resolute when he was young, and had a very bad temper. He offended many people in the court and was stationed on the frontier all year round. However, there are not many pro-party members who can speak up in the court, and Tan Shengchang was sent to escort Princess Heding to the northwest. Now the old general Ji in the court is walking on thin ice.

It is normal for civil officials to take the opportunity to suppress the old general. After all, military officials in North Korea and Chinese have always looked down on each other, and the military officer is eager for the old general to be cut off. Military officer, why not do it.

"Rewards for meritorious deeds and punishments for demerits. General Ji's demerits outweigh his meritorious deeds. The emperor's victory should let the people of the world know that the court rewards and punishes clearly."

Ji Chong had a sullen face, he couldn't see any joy or anger, but Yang Ye felt a sense of desolation. He had worked for the court for many years, but now he was ostracized by all the officials in his old age.

"Your Majesty Sun really does not hurt your back when you stand and talk. The military officer who went to the front line of the battlefield, you stay well in the capital. You only know that the battle was defeated, but you don't know that the old general was bathed in blood on the battlefield. The knife wound on his arm has not healed yet! "

Suddenly a military officer spoke for Ji Chong.

"Your Excellency's words are very meaningful. Could it be that only the generals are fighting on the front line to serve the country, and the ministers in the court have never bothered? Isn't the emperor worrying about the front line? The general's contribution is too great! "

"you!"

The hall suddenly fell into dead silence.

"Your Majesty, I feel that what your lords say is reasonable, but in fact, why do you have to use punishment to hurt the hearts of the soldiers and generals? If the soldiers are discouraged by this, it is not the misfortune of our court. The Bata Department Although we are seeking peace with the Central Plains now, who can guarantee that we will not become ambitious again after recuperating at that time, so what if we send troops to the Central Plains again."

Emperor Ji Wen looked at Yang Ye: "What does Ai Qing think?"

Yang Ye said: "The general has fought for many years and has rich training experience. Why don't you make up for your mistakes and stay in the capital to train soldiers. He has a strong army and a strong horse, so why fear the Bata tribe?"

Emperor Ji Wen didn't answer, Yang Ye knew that relying on his own words, even if the emperor favored him, he couldn't make a rash decision, this would only dissatisfy the people in the court, so he looked at Li Cheng and winked slightly.

"War is nothing more than victory or defeat. Reconciliation is only temporary. The old general was invincible in the previous dynasty. He fought everywhere with the late emperor. Since he can accept his victory, why can't he accept defeat? People in the world think that the court is ungrateful, so the loss outweighs the gain, now that Master Yang has given a solution, why not let the old general make up for it.”

Immediately afterwards, Wen Han came out to help, and Shi Zi also said a few words, and the situation was finally corrected.

During the next court, Yang Ye watched Ji Chong walk out of the hall with his hands behind his hands, and turned to look at him when he reached the door.

Yang Ye was about to go up to say hello, after all, this is the most upright family of Axi's in the capital, and he had to earn some good performance, but unexpectedly, Eunuch Qiao stopped him when he came out suddenly and told him to go see the emperor.
