“I am guilty, please be respectful to the sage!”
Hearing the emperor’s anger, everyone in the hall hurriedly paused their heads to the ground and answered.
After hearing this, Gao Yang went down to the palace, grabbed a few people and beat them up. After venting this, he returned to the hall. He sighed with melancholy, “I am willing to kill the thief, but I will not allow me. I have no choice but to support the enemy and raise the enemy to Guanxi. Is it a self-improvement plan? The former made me misleading me, so that the troops did not follow me, and I had to endure it for a while. When my situation became safe, I will attack him in person!”
After hearing this, the few people felt relieved. Although the emperor’s tone is still very fierce, since he said so, he would be willing to accept the reality and would not continue to invest personnel and supplies to maintain the war in the short term.
Because of the arrival of several people, Gao Yang Shangke’s mood became extremely bad. After the matter was temporarily concluded, he waved his hand to ask everyone to step down and discuss a plan before proceeding, leaving Yang Yan alone.
“Your Majesty…”
When everyone left, Yang Yan was about to speak, but a gust of wind suddenly blew up in front of him. He was still struggling to get up, but Gao Yang stepped forward to trample on the ground, and the emperor’s roar sounded in his ears.
“Dog thief, I will give you state affairs. Is it because I want you to be a slave to the mouthpiece of others? The war in Heluo is the one who is responsible. King Changshan rashly said that it is illegal. Not only did you not advise and obstruct, but you went to Jinyang to force him with him. What is your intention?”
Although Gao Yang has given people the impression that he has become increasingly crazy and moody in recent years, he still has deep logical considerations under the extremely exposed emotional changes.
Jinyang was originally the residence of the Ba Mansion, but now it is a military center, so he needs to be in charge for a long time. As the capital and political center of Yecheng, he also needs people who are truly worthy of his trust to stay and preside over the host. There is no doubt that Yang Yan is such a person.
On the one hand, Gao Yang was extremely favored and recommended all state affairs, and trust was beyond words. On the other hand, he was very wary of Yang Yan, and especially disliked Yang Yan’s close contacts with the royal ministers.
This time, Yang Yan went to Jinyang with Changshan Wang Gao Yan without asking for instructions in advance, and what he wanted to report was a matter that made Gao Yang very upset. Although the difficulties stated by everyone are real, Gao Yang still sounds like a group of ministers uniting to create difficulties and put pressure on him.
This feeling naturally made Gao Yang feel disgusted and alert, and what made him even more dissatisfied was that Yang Yan, as his number one confidant, was also involved, so after holding back everyone else, he deliberately kept Yang Yan and sanctioned him.
“I dare not, and the intention of me is to be loyal to the emperor and father!”
Yang Yan was trampled on the ground and couldn’t turn around, but he touched the ground with his forehead and said quickly: “He”Luo’s defeat was indeed unexpected, and there was another chance of turning around when the enemy general Li Boshan sent an envoy to ask for the alliance. Nowadays, there is something wrong with the country’s insemination and material diseases, so it is wise to make good use of it for the time being. The reason why I went to Jinyang for a visit is that I just wanted to report to Your Majesty, please do not take the title of King Changshan to go south to rule the alliance! “
“Oh? Why is Changshan King not?”
Gao Yang’s face was slightly angry when he heard this, and then he asked with a deep look on his eyes.
He moved his legs and feet stepping on Yang Yan’s back, bent down and reached out to pull up Yang Yan who was lying on the ground, and personally helped Yang Yan slap the dust and footprints on his back, as if just a pair of bad friends were playing and fighting, rather than an angry king who had a murderous intention to kill the ruling minister.
Yang Yan was already accustomed to the way of getting along with the emperor, and did not care about the past, but answered seriously: “This time the army went south to Heluo to fight the Western Qiang, and the Black Otter was very happy for the country. Besides this old enemy was able to celebrate the whole country. As for the subsequent events, although they encountered setbacks, they were all controlled by the enemy because they were not doing their best. How could they be classified as national humiliation?
Although Li Boshan was a powerful general of his country, he was not a person who went west to defend himself. He had no worldly enemies with our country and was just a stubborn power. If anyone blocked it, he would become an enemy, even though his former master was also inevitable. Now he went west and planned to make good plans with me, and his intentions could be seen. However, the Heluo Army was still intimidated by his troops. If the King of Changshan went to discuss how to solve the problem, the soldiers would inevitably be tempted by their private kindness and ignorant of justice…”
In the current situation, everyone has their own personal position and demands. As the number one confidant of Qizhu Gao Yang, Yang naturally did not want sect kings like Changshan Wang Gao Yan to have a strong sense of existence in the current military and political system. Moreover, the reason why he hoped that the court could make peace with Li Boshan this time was not just based on the current national conditions.
From the perspective of national regime, Li Boshan, as a general of the enemy country, is naturally a great enemy that needs strict defense. But aside from the regime’s position, Li Boshan is the most outstanding representative of the famous aristocratic families in the world today. He himself is a peak that the aristocratic families have reached in the current situation since the Beizhen Mutiny.
As the prime minister of Northern Qi, Yang Yan naturally would not have any idea of colluding with the enemy. However, the relatively unbalanced power comparison situation in the country also forced him to consider it more comprehensively.
Although the conflict between the Xianbei military and the Han dynasty has not been highlighted due to the usual strong practices of Emperor Gao Yang, this does not mean that the contradiction does not exist. People need to be prepared for danger in times of peace. In the past, Yang Yan had no other choice except to be loyal to the emperor, but now he sees another possibility.
Now it seems that Li Boshan is very likely to become the new leader of the Kansai Bafu. Once the person is in power, emotionally speaking, the Xianbei nobles will find it difficult to contempt and bully the Han aristocratic tribes and powerful people in groups. Although it is also true that the warriors become the country after the mutiny of the Six Towns, LiBoshan came from behind and was also stepping on the throne of soldiers.
