In the third year of Renshou, it is the third day of the sixth lunar month.
Yang Jian summoned hundreds of officials and held a court meeting in Renshou Palace.
Liang Pi (pi), the imperial censor, made a memorial again:
"I secretly saw Zuo Pushe and Yue Gong Yang Su. Fortunately, he became more and more important. His power was growing day by day. He was a gentry (a person who had an official position or had served as an official). He was in his sight and hearing. If your majesty regarded Su as A Heng, I would be afraid of his heart.
Not necessarily Yi Yin.”
A Heng is Yi Yin, A Heng is Yi Yin's honorific title, A means "reliance", and "Heng" means "maintenance". Together they mean "reliance on the country". He was the founding father of the Shang Dynasty and the right prime minister of the country.
Liang Bi's words mean that you regard Yang Su as the country's support, but Yang Su may not be a loyal and virtuous minister like Yi Yin.
The words are not serious, but the deep meaning is very mean and vicious. This is the usual behavior of literati.
What was Yang Jian's reaction?
Furious! Furious!
But it was not aimed at Yang Su, but at Liang Pi.
At the court meeting, in front of everyone, he ordered the guards to whip Liang Pi several times and questioned him:
"Do you know your crime for slandering the minister?"
"I said something wrong. I would like to thank Your Highness, Princess Haihan."
What's more, he is endowed with nobility and unparalleled appearance.
After sitting down, Mr. Shen looked ashamed. Last year, only one of the three children in the family barely passed the exam, and it was because of Yang Ming that he was appointed to Xiangyang. However, this year, Yang Ming still gave his family three places in Jiangling County.
This made her feel a little ashamed and felt like she had failed Yang Ming's cultivation.
"I thought you would like the one among the five of them?" Yang Yinjiang teased deliberately.
A moment later, she stood naked in the middle of the dormitory. Yang Yinjiang stretched out his fingers and wiped her body back and forth, turning around and around.
The strategy test is a temporary question, mostly related to current affairs, asking candidates to explain their countermeasures.
There are currently only two subjects in the Sui Dynasty, the Xiucai subject and the Xiaolian subject. The examination methods are divided into three categories: oral examination, policy examination, and essay examination.
The Sui Dynasty scientific examination was reported by the governors of various states and counties at the beginning of each year. Then in May, these scholars would be recruited to Beijing for interviews. They would first pass the official test, and only the outstanding ones would pass the Yang Jian test.
He was still very foresight and knew that he should have a good relationship with the military, so at this moment, it was really not appropriate to agree to the eldest son's request to abolish the concubine, because Yang Zhao's father-in-law Cui Hongsheng was still a hussar general.
Yang Ming smiled and said: "Shen Qu is also eighteen years old this year, why hasn't he gotten married yet?"
But Yang Yinjiang was not happy with other women, except Pei Shuying and Chen Shuyi.
But it's a pity that a business family is a business family after all. He can memorize it, but he doesn't understand what it means.
This means that you should no longer care about trivial matters. Just attend court meetings every now and then to discuss major matters.
Just as Xiao Mohe was used by Yang Ming to check and balance Li Jing, he would not let Zhou Zhongmo take charge of navy affairs alone, so he must arrange a suitable person to serve as an assistant.
There is no doubt that those five Jiangnan women are all rare and stunningly beautiful. Xiaojiabiyu is so beautiful that it shows that Yang Jian has a discerning eye.
He was talking about Yang Yong and Yang Xiu, which meant that Yang Su was very happy to see something happen to them. He also implied that Yang Su was looking forward to something happening to the country every day so that he could take advantage of it to gain power.
That evening, Yang Ming specially sent someone to invite Mr. Shen.
"So that's what it is, what a pity." Yang Yinjiang looked at Yang Ming with regret: "My husband should find a marriage for him."
Yin Funu shed tears of gratitude and said: "The princess has given me the kindness to regenerate my servant, and I can't repay her by treating her like a cow or a horse."
"Silly girl, I don't need anything in return from you. From now on, I just need to take good care of my husband and raise my children."
After examination in each subject, students will be divided into two grades: A and B. After admission, they will be awarded official positions according to their grades.
The first thing Yuan Chongzai did when he came to Jingzhou was to meet with Yang Ming. Afterwards, he took office as the governor of Ezhou.
When Yang Su built the Five-Tooth Ship, it was in Badong County.
Just at this time, Liu Shu stood up again, saying that after taking office as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, he read the official books of all parties and found that the bureaucrats in the world were mostly out of the Yue government, and everyone only respected the Yue Gong, but did not know the supreme authority.
Timber has always been transported by water if it can be transported by water, and it is very laborious to transport it by land.
So, what is a trivial matter? Recommending officials must count.
Yang Jian's last words also affected Su Wei, because Su Wei was the minister's right servant, so he was also thinking, should he also attend court meetings every once in a while?
With doubts, Su Wei had just left Renshou Palace when Liu Shu came after him on horseback.
The contents of the Sui Dynasty scientific examination were basically based on questions from those books, and Yang Ming secretly opened a back door for them.
Yang Ming said indifferently: "You can decide it yourself, any one will do, but you have to train it well."
She has business to do tonight, so Yang Ming will sleep at Pei Shuying's place.
Mrs. Shen nodded quickly: "Back to Your Highness, our Shen family started its water transport business. Many of the disciples in the family are good at boating. Since they know the nature of boats, they naturally know how to build them."
Yin Funu hurriedly said: "Compared to the princess, a slave is like a firefly to a bright moon."
A woman like Yin Fuzi is actually a kind of goods, or a gift. She has been trained by the buyer since she was a child, in order to give it to others in the future to achieve a certain purpose.
And Yang Su also knew that he would have to do this sooner or later, so he acted very calmly, saying that he recommended officials only for the Sui Dynasty and to select talents for the Supreme, and he had absolutely no selfish motives.
The Shen family in Jiangling has made a living by water transport for generations. After Yang Ming became the general manager of Jingzhou, he appointed Shen Lun, the brother-in-law of the wife of the family leader Shen, as the county captain of Jiangxia. In addition, the scientific examination quota for Jiangxia County the following year also included three children of the Shen family.
Reported it.
Fang Xuanling once broke into Yang Jian.
The best wood for military ships is pine and fir. In fact, teak is the best choice.
Xiangzhou is also the area around Yecheng, which was the capital of the old Qi Dynasty. It was later known as the area west of Handan and north of Anyang.
Yang Ming picked up the wine glass in front of him, raised it towards Mr. Shen, and then drank it.
This is undoubtedly a great blessing for a lowly woman, because from now on, she can live like a normal person.
"Yes, my body is very smooth and my skin is also very good. I am really blessed by God. Even I am a little envious."
Essays are actually essays with propositions. The types include proverbs (exhortations and warnings), inscriptions (self-encouragement and self-warning essays), praise (praise of merits and virtues), fu (recitation and chanting essays), treatises (comments and analysis essays), and odes (exams).
Praise and blessing text), oath (restraint oath text) and other literary styles.
The letter said that around March last year, a new servant was hired into the Yue Gong Mansion, a male slave. Pei Ju targeted this man because he found out that he had been in Hulu Xiaoqing's manor.
I have worked as a groom, and this man’s accent has a hint of Xiangzhou accent.
It was a very troublesome thing to break away from the lowly status, but Yang Yinjiang had already taken care of it. She changed it to a good status and named her Yinfunu.
Especially the princess's kindness and kindness made her even more ashamed.
Yang Gongren, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was the eldest son of Yang Xiong, King of Guangping. Yang Xiong called Yang Jian his clan father, and he was the grandson of Yang Xiong's great-grandfather's brother, so they were related to Yang Ming.
"Get up,"
So it can be naturally seen that Liu Shu must have been ordered by the Supreme Lord to retain him. Otherwise, if both servants went home, would they still be able to do government affairs?
Prince Yang Guang is a smart man. He knows that his two biggest helpers, A Niang and Yang Su, are gone, so he must be cautious in the future.
Yang Yinjiang smiled and waved her hand: "There is no need to panic. You must know that His Highness allowed you to enter the inner garden, so he did not treat you as an outsider. Since you are not an outsider, there is no need to be so restrained."
On the wedding day of Shen Qu and Yin Funu, the couple bowed three times in the direction of the Governor's Mansion.
As soon as Mrs. Shen entered the inner garden, Yang Yinjiang held her arm warmly: "Your Highness, you have been waiting for me for a long time. Come with me quickly."
The accents in this area are very easy to recognize, especially Pei Ju.
Yang Ming was unmoved when he saw sex, which made Yang Yinjiang very happy.
He had worked in half of the Central Government Offices of the Sui Dynasty, and he had already seen through Yang Jian.
Because she is the daughter of a guilty minister and belongs to a lowly family, she cannot marry and can only become someone else's plaything.
Because it is too complicated, it is called an essay.
So Zhou Zhongmou took the approval document from the General Manager's Office, called the transport ship of the Capital Water Department, and sent his confidants to Badong County to purchase wood.
If you want to pass these three levels, you must read more. Not only must you memorize by rote, but you must also understand the purpose of the article.
"Yes," Yang Yinjiang smiled sweetly, looked at Mrs. Shen and said:
"There is a beauty in the palace who comes from the south of the Yangtze River. She was originally a young lady from a wealthy family. Unfortunately, her family met with misfortune and she ended up in the palace. She has a pure and pure body and a good appearance. I feel pity for her. How about giving her to Shen Qu as his wife?"
A boating expert does not refer to an expert who can row a boat with a wooden pulp, but a boat owner who is familiar with the water properties of the Yangtze River, is good at driving, is proficient in management, and understands waterway navigation.
At this speed, Yang Jian knew that Yang Su would be able to grasp it well.
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to intercede for Yang Su.
Yang Yinjiang said calmly: "If you marry from the palace, then this is half of your natal family. If you are bullied or wronged by someone, just come to me and I will make the decision for you."
Yang Ming chuckled and did not answer her.
To be precise, it was Zhang Xiaobao, the beauty scout, who had the foresight.
Yang Ming frowned and said: "There is no suitable candidate."
Yang Jian hesitated.
"It's a happy event, so let's have a drink,"
Yang Ming certainly meant to monitor Shen Qu when he did this. After all, he didn't know this person at all and had never even met him.
This is a patriarchal society, women's status is too low, and those with poor backgrounds need to rely on men to survive, so they generally don't care how their husbands act outside.
Yang He, as the commander-in-chief's soldier, was also involved. He didn't understand many things, but fortunately he was willing to study hard. Although he seemed to be in a hurry, he generally handled things properly.
Qin Wangjun is an exception, even a typical one. He was actually poisoned by his wife out of jealousy, which shows how much fun he had.
In fact, in the Sui Dynasty, especially among the princes, princes and ministers, the head wives rarely cared about their husbands' philandering because they couldn't control them.
Shen said with a look of shame: "Your Highness has promoted you, but we failed to live up to your expectations and have embarrassed you."
Of course Yang Jian would not blame him. After all, Yang Su had been with him for more than twenty years, and the love between the emperor and his subjects was still there. However, Yang Su's current status was too high, and Yang Jian did not like it.
"Su was good at power and favor, wielding authority and doing good deeds. He killed people without justice when he was a general. And when the prince and the king of Shu were deposed, all the officials were horrified. But Su raised his eyebrows and worked hard. He was happy to see his face, and he thought he was doing something good for the country. fortunate."
"Come, take off your clothes and let me see your body," Yang Yinjiang said with a smile.
"That's what the lady said," Yang Yinjiang sat next to her and said with a smile: "No one can disgrace your highness. Your highness teaches you how to fish. Whether you can catch the fish or not depends only on you. If you want to be embarrassed, you are also disgraceful to yourself." people."
The oral test is to post an essay first, and then take the oral test. The essays are all about the same topic, and it’s up to the candidates to see who can answer them best.
Afterwards, she asked the maid next to her to verify her identity to see if the other person was indeed a perfect jade.
I don't know the crime, I am not guilty. Liang Pi showed great righteousness and continued to play:
With that said, Yang Yinjiang told Shen Qu's origins. When Yin Funu found out that her future husband was actually a child of an aristocratic family with an official status, she was even more delighted.
In early June, Pei Ju received a letter.
Yang Su accepted it calmly. He had long expected this day and stayed home sick from then on.
After careful consideration, the Ministry of Personnel originally planned to let the boy go to the southern barbarian land to become a county administrator without rank. However, Yang Ming suppressed it and followed Yang Gongren's path to get the boy a military officer in Xiangyang County. Zhizhi Xiaoguan of the ninth grade.
She herself was a maid in the palace of King Yang Jun of Qin. She was given as a concubine to the then head of the family, Shen Xing, and was later made his wife.
When Yang Yinjiang got married, she also brought two concubines, not Yang Xuangan's daughters, but Yang Xuanzang's concubines. With concubines like these, Yang Yinjiang wished that Yang Ming could enjoy them earlier.
Yang Yinjiang smiled and motioned for her to put on clothes: "A woman's first priority is chastity. Remember, from today on, no one is allowed to take off your clothes except your husband. Otherwise, you will jump into the well and die." Alright."
Now the whole Jiangling knew that the Shen family had embraced the big tree of King Hedong, and there was an endless stream of people coming to congratulate him, including the county governor Murong Sanzang.
Prince Yang Guang realized the crisis and planned to provoke Liu Shu, but was dissuaded by Pei Ju in time.
Because of her good looks, she was bought by a businessman with rare goods. After several transfers, she fell into the hands of Yang Xian, and she is still intact today.
Because Yu Chijiong, the governor of Xiangzhou, rebelled, Yang Jian burned Ye City to rubble in the first year of Kaihuang, and most of the people in the city moved south to Anyang County.
Taking off clothes is not a shameful thing for Yin Funu. She has taken off her clothes too many times and many men have seen her body.
It wasn't until Zheng He's voyages to the West in the Ming Dynasty that this thing was introduced to the Yunnan, Guangxi, and Fujian areas because it is a tropical tree species.
So he said: "Pushe is the prime minister and assistant of the country. He cannot do detailed affairs personally, but he can go to the province once every three or five days to comment on important matters."
Mrs. Shen was frightened. The princess's words were like daggers. They seemed to be intimate, but in fact they had a strong warning meaning.
Mrs. Shen was sensible and quickly stood up to thank her.
Shipbuilding in the Sui Dynasty was still made of pine and fir, and the most suitable aniseed for transportation was in Shu. As the most important port on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Badong County (Fengjie County, Chongqing) became the largest timber distribution center on the Yangtze River waterway.
At this time, Yang Ming said with a smile: "My king arranged for Shen Qu to serve as the military commander of Xiangyang County. In fact, I hope that he will go to Xiangyang Navy to supervise shipbuilding. I heard that Shen Qu's father is a famous shipbuilder in Jingzhou?"
Su Wei was one of the Four Nobles in the early Sui Dynasty. He served as Prince Shaobao, Minister Nayan, Duzhi Shangshu, Dali Temple Minister, Jing Zhaoyin, Yushi Dafu, Minbu Shangshu and Libu Shangshu.
"I have made arrangements for you. In addition to changing your status to a good one, I have also found a marriage for you. In the future, you can also get married and have children like other women."
So he deliberately succumbed and visited two military bosses, He Ruobi and Shi Wansui, hoping to build closer relations.
"I would rather die than keep my chastity," Yin Funu knelt down again and thanked her for her great kindness.
"The only person Liang Pi is targeting is Yang Su. Don't worry about it, Mr. Pi. I still need to rely on you for the affairs of the court."
Of the three Shen disciples recommended by Yang Ming, only one got a B grade, which was barely enough for him to pass.
Yang Ming's word "ming" means self-motivation, self-discipline, self-encouragement, and self-discipline. It is not chosen casually.
Although she said this with a smile, Shen was shrewd and immediately realized that the other party was reminding her of her language problem, and she quickly stood up to apologize:
My family is easy to talk to, so setting up a small official is just a matter of raising your hand.
In the dormitory, a maid named Yin Fuzi was brought to Yang Yinjiang. She was one of the five daughters given to Yang Ming by Yang Jian. She was from Xiuning County, Xin'an County, Jiangnan (Huangshan City, Xiuning County). Her father had served as a county official. According to the order, the offender died in exile, and all the female relatives in the family became prostitutes.
Yin Funu burst into tears, knelt in front of Yang Yinjiang, and kept kowtowing.
Why was she made a concubine at the beginning? Because she had been enjoyed by Yang Jun, so she was not perfect and could not be the first wife of others.
After Mr. Shen left, Yang Yinjiang came to Yang Ming and said, "Among the five beauties my second brother gave you, which one do you think is appropriate?"
Unfortunately, there is no teak in the Sui Dynasty. This thing is distributed in places like Myanmar and Thailand. It has not been introduced in the Sui Dynasty yet, and teak is not even known to be the best material for shipbuilding.
However, he made Yuwenchamin, the daughter of Yuwenshu, a concubine to Yang Zhao.
Yang Ming knew in his heart that he didn't have much time to train his subordinates. Most of the people in this group would regard him as a noble person in their life. As long as nothing happened to him, they would not change their family.
Yang Ming smiled and said: "Shen Qu is pretty good. He was able to pass the second-level exam. He obviously worked hard. Learning is boundless and cannot be achieved overnight. Take your time."
Shen said: "I once had a wife who died in childbirth."
In those days, Yang Ming gave Shen many books and asked her to copy them for the children at home to study.
In fact, Mrs. Shen didn't know who Yang Yinjiang was at the beginning, so she didn't know how to call her. However, judging from her appearance and temperament, she was probably the rumored granddaughter of the Duke of Yue and the royal concubine of the King of Hedong.
Does he know who is in Yang Su's house? Yang Ming was stunned. His father-in-law is so shady. How dare you plant an informant in Yang Su's house?
And there are people of yours in Hulu Xiaoqing’s house?
You are the internal historian, not the factory boss.
My mother is pregnant and has two lines. That’s it for today. It’s 5,000 words. I have to prepare three meals a day. I wish everyone a happy New Year. Also, friends who live in first-tier cities can prepare some medicine to stop diarrhea. , don’t hoard them, just take them in moderation, such as montmorillonite powder, norfloxacin, chinchangsheng, nitroglycerin tablets, etc. I heard that XBB has come in.
