When Yang Ming was a child, he met Zhangqiu Taiyi several times in Yong'an Palace. This man was previously a scholar employed by Yang Jian and his wife, and was later recommended to Yang Yong.
When Yang Yong was deposed, he had nothing to do and returned to Yang Jian.
This man is well-read and knowledgeable. He believes in both Buddhism and Taoism. He is especially good at fortune telling.
I once overestimated my ability and competed with Pei Ju for knowledge, but was slapped in the face, so I changed my major and switched to divination.
Before Yang Jian's death, he planned to move into the Renshou Palace, but was blocked by Zhang Qiu Taiyi, saying that if I were to observe the stars, the Supreme Being would not be able to go this time, and if I did, I might not be able to come back.
Yang Jian was furious and threw him into prison directly, saying, "Just wait, I will behead you when I come back safely from Renshou Palace."
Facts have proved that Yang Jian did not come back.
After Yang Jian went to Renshou Palace, he became seriously ill and his condition worsened day by day. At that time, Yang Jian realized that he was about to die.
So he told his son Yang Guang: Zhang Qiu is not an ordinary person. Nothing he predicts is inaccurate. You will go back and release him from prison.
Originally, Yang Guang didn't want to see Zhang Qiu, but after this incident, he admired Zhang Qiu's ability very much. Now he has changed his surname to Lu, so Zhang Qiu Taiyi is also called Lu Taiyi.
The surname Zhangchou originated from Zhang Han, a great figure in the late Qin Dynasty.
After Zhang Han was defeated by Liu Bang, he committed suicide. His descendants fled to Qiu Mountain and were named Zhang Qiu.
The surname Zhang originated from Jiang, and the surname Lu also originated from Jiang, so Yang Guang said: Qing's surname is Zhang Qiu. The stomach of the four mountains has the same origin as Lu, so he was given the surname Lu.
This person now has a name in Taichang Temple, hiding at home all day long to study knowledge, and will only enter the palace when the emperor calls him.
Yang Su gave himself two of the four pillars, with the obvious intention of letting Yang Ming find someone like Zhang Qiu to speak to Emperor Yang Guang.
What to say?
Of course, it is for Luoyang to read Feng Shui. Those whose birthdays have the two pillars of Yang and Su cannot take charge of them, otherwise it will destroy the king's aura.
It's probably something like this.
Yang Guang has learned from his father Yang Jian's mistakes and will probably believe Zhang Qiu's words and change the candidate for the chief supervisor.
But here comes the problem. Yang Ming has no face with Zhang Qiu, so they may not be willing to help him.
A master like Zhang Qiu had a lot of rules, one of which was that after midnight, the door to the gatekeeper's room could not be opened.
In other words, Yang Ming has no plans to see anyone tonight.
At the court meeting the next day, Yang Guang and the ministers were busy studying the design drawings of Daxing City, and they had not decided on a candidate to be the supervisor of the Luoyang camp for the time being.
Yang Guang planned to build Luoyang according to the layout of Daxing. After all, no capital city in any dynasty or generation before the Sui Dynasty could match the magnificence of Daxing City. Facts have proved that there was no capital city after that.
Daxing City, also known as Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, was the greatest capital city in the feudal history of mankind.
Since Yang Ming intended to lead the construction of Luoyang, he would certainly get involved and carefully study the design drawings of Daxing City.
Historically, there have been many opinions on the relative importance of Daxing and Luoyang in the Sui Dynasty, which can be roughly divided into four categories.
1. The Sui Dynasty was a two-capital system, with Daxing in Xijing and Luoyang in Tokyo juxtaposed.
Second, during Yang Guang's reign, Luoyang was the capital and Daxing was the companion capital. The reason is that Yang Guang lived in Luoyang for less than four years and Daxing for less than one year.
Third, the Sui Dynasty had a system of one capital and two capitals. Daxing was Kyoto, Luoyang, and Jiangdu was the capital. Needless to say, Jiangdu was important to Comrade Yang Guang. Before he succeeded to the throne, he lived in Jiangdu for eleven years. After he succeeded to the throne,
, stayed for another three years.
Fourth, Daxing is the capital, Luoyang is the companion capital, and Jiangdu is nothing.
In Yang Ming's current opinion, these four types of statements are probably the third type, that is, one capital and two capitals.
First of all, it is absolutely impossible for Luoyang to replace Daxing's role, and it is even less possible for Daxing to serve as a companion capital for Luoyang. From all aspects, Daxing's status is unshakable.
If Yang Guang dares to make Daxing his capital, the Guanzhong Group will never agree, and rebellion is possible.
After the court meeting, Yang Guang took Yu Wenkai to Liangyi Hall and continued to think about where the remaining people should go.
Yang Ming visited Youwuwei Mansion and Youlingjun Mansion and then left.
The Youwu Wei Mansion is the successor to the squad of Wei Wang Yang Shuang. There are two generals, one with the surname Yang, from a clan, and the other with the surname Li, who is from Longxi.
This is why Li Yuan can become emperor. It is because his family is too powerful.
After returning home in a hurry, Yang Ming went to find Dugu Bailou.
Ah Lou knew Zhang Chou Taiyi very well, and Yang Ming wanted to learn some of Zhang Chou's preferences from her.
What a coincidence, he likes women.
It seems that those who engage in learning are all of this type. Despite their age, they also look well-dressed, but I didn't expect to be so good at it.
There are a few pretty goddesses over there in Jinyang Tower, but Yang Ming doesn't like giving away women.
"Ah Lou, other than women, how else can I get close to Zhang Chou?" Yang Ming said while getting rid of Dugu Feng'er's entanglement.
After Yang Ming learned that A'lou was the sister of his grandmother Dugu Jialuo, he changed his name to her aunt, but A'lou didn't like to be called that way, so Yang Ming just asked her to call her A'lou.
After all, Dugu Bailou was nominally a servant. Yang Guang knew the truth, but he had never called her aunt. Dugu Bailou's true identity was not recognized.
Ah Lou frowned and said, "What on earth do you want to do? Zhang Qiu is just a warlock, why do you need to get close to him?"
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Aren't I asking for something from others?"
"You can't tell me?" Dugu Pailou asked curiously.
Yang Ming hurriedly said: "Yes, I can tell you anything."
After a while, Alou raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but smile:
"Thank you for thinking about it. This matter is easy to handle. You take me to find him. I know everything this old man has done before. If he doesn't help, I will find out."
Yang Ming was overjoyed: "Then let's go now?"
Ah Lou smiled and nodded.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhangqiu Taiyi lives relatively far away, in Jing'an Square to the east of Zunshan Square, where Yang Ming's original small treasury was located.
The house is still there to prepare for future needs.
Yang Ming has no shortage of mansions at the moment. Yang Yinjiang has a lot of dowries. Among them is a large mansion that has been tidied up and planned to be used as an office space for the prince's palace.
Yuan Wendu and the others are already on their way back to the capital. After returning to Daxing, they will be promoted to subordinate officials of the Qin Palace and officially become their own staff.
As for the romantic and talented Li Baiyao, he came to Yang Ming many times. He was recruited by Yang Ming to serve as a wine sacrifice for the prince's palace. The staff had prepared eucalyptus, but he had never done anything.
He himself felt embarrassed, so he hoped that Yang Ming would find him something to do.
Yang Ming simply sent him to Hedong to find Fang Xuanling to handle the affairs there.
The taxes from Hedong still belong to Yang Ming, because Hedong is now the fiefdom of his son Yang Rui.
Although Yang Ming was granted the title of King of Qin, he did not have a fiefdom.
Princes did not have the habit of enfeoffing land, which coincidentally started in the Sui Dynasty.
Because Yang Ming's title is Qin, then his feudal country is Qin. Where is Qin?
Right under Yang Ming's current feet.
But Yang Ming has no say in the Qin Dynasty.
In terms of income, the prince is not as good as the county king, but the status is completely different.
In other words, the money Yang Ming makes now is not as much as that of his son Yang Rui. The taxes in Hedong are actually Yang Rui's money. As a father, of course he can help spend it legitimately. Isn't this too much?
Although there is no fiefdom, the salary has increased a lot, and the settlement has been changed to 4,000 households, which is about 100 acres of land.
His food towns are scattered in various counties in Guanzhong, and the land taxes of these four thousand households are all paid to him.
Calculating it this way, after becoming a prince, it is not a big loss, and it is definitely not a gain.
.......
Zhangqiu Taiyi's house was not big. After all, studying knowledge was very expensive. His salary was not large, so his family was not rich.
However, relying on his ability to pinch and calculate, he managed to steal several concubines.
You can think of him as a fortune teller, but this gentleman only tells fortunes for the emperor.
Yang Ming hadn't spoken yet, but Ah Lou simply told everything straight to the point.
Zhang Qiu respects Alou very much. In fact, even Yang Guang wants to give Alou some face. The person who has served Dugu Jialuo all his life must have good reputation.
Yang Ming originally thought that this matter was shady and he needed to hint at the other party tactfully, but he didn't know that Ah Lou was so straightforward and said everything.
Zhang Qiu's hair and beard are all white, and he looks a bit like an immortal, which is quite bluffing.
Just listen to him say: "Your Majesty Hu Nong, if you do something wrong, someone will die."
Ah Lou was an old acquaintance with him, so he frowned and said, "Were there not many Hu Nong Supremes in your life?"
"Ahem..." Zhang Qiu blushed and said awkwardly: "That was what the Holy Queen ordered before, otherwise I wouldn't have the guts."
Yang Ming was stunned, "Oh, you old boy, you have a lot of stories. Have you ever tricked Yang Jian before?"
You are the one talking about it, and when Yang Yinjiang got married, didn't you also make up two sets of excuses?
Ah Lou said with a sullen face: "Can you help me with this?"
"Alas..." Zhang Qiu sighed, and after pondering for a long time, he said, "I only want to mention it. I don't care whether your Majesty will listen or not."
Although there are risks in doing this, Zhangqiu Taiyi is not too worried, because with experience, as long as you are vague and ambiguous, and leave yourself some room, you will be fine.
Just like when he advised the Supreme Being not to go to the Renshou Palace, he only said "I'm afraid" he wouldn't be able to come back, but didn't say "certainly" he wouldn't be able to come back. This was the beauty of his words.
This time, the worst case scenario is to say that these two life pillars are "not very suitable" for supervising construction projects, so as not to say it all.
Furthermore, he understood A'lou's temperament and knew that the other party would not sell him out. The two of them were very familiar with each other when they were in Yong'an Palace. They were old friends and they still had to help.
"It's a deal," Alou nodded, stood up and said, "You will benefit from it afterwards."
"I've already met someone else. What's the point of working for King Qin and you?" Zhang Qiuxiao hurriedly laughed with him.
After Yang Ming and the others left, he said rather puzzledly on the way:
"Why do I feel like this old boy is a bit unreliable?"
Alou smiled and said: "Don't worry, he has this kind of virtue and is still reliable in his work."
hope so.......
Yang Ming knew that before his father left for Luoyang, he would definitely ask Zhang Chou to help him take a look. At that time, he would have to rely on his mouth.
No matter how high Zhang Qiu's divination ability is, he always serves the power. If you tell someone to be honest, you can't say anything negative.
At that time, he followed Empress Dugu's instructions and said that General Yang Yin was not suitable as a concubine, and Yang Su was ready to kill him.
Fortunately, things were reconciled later, otherwise, if Yang Yinjiang really couldn't get married, this old boy would definitely die on the street.
