Chapter 353 Eight Exonerations

This is a general, not a general. Generals can also be held by relying on a strong background and recommendation from people with sufficient status, such as Yang Xuanting and Yang Gongdao.

But a general must have prestige in the army. This is a hard condition. Even if you are a civilian official, the army will obey you.

There are several candidates who best meet the conditions right now. One is Sun Cheng, the commander of the Youxiao Guard, and Wei Xuan and Wei Wensheng, the minister of Weiwei Temple and minister of the Ministry of Punishment. They also served as the generals of the Right Command and the Left and Right Mansion.

There are also brothers Han Sengshou and Han Hong who are not much younger than Shi Wansui, as well as Duan Wenzhen, the Minister of War, who participated in the pacification of Yuchijiong's rebellion, the battle to destroy Chen in the Sui Dynasty, and the attack on the Turks in the north, plus the former governor of Shaanxi Province, now Zongzheng Temple

Dear Yang Yichen.

These are the most likely.

The remaining Zhou Fashang, Zhang Dinghe, Qu Tutong, Guo Rong, and Dugu Sheng also have opportunities.

The most outrageous ones are Yang Yue and Yang Xuangan, and some people also recommended them.

Shi Wansui's face was livid, and he was too embarrassed to look at Yang Ming again. Who would have thought that this would be the case before resigning? This would cause trouble.

Yang Ming had been silent all this time, so everyone had been quietly sizing him up. When recommending candidates, they had no room to speak, for fear of offending Yang Ming.

After all, Yang Ming had beaten Yu Shiji at a court meeting some time ago, pointed at Yu Wenshu and Lai Huer's noses and cursed him. Such a violent temper could not be offended.

Seeing that his son never spoke, Yang Guang asked:

"Does the King of Qin intend to hold the post concurrently?"

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the hall.

"My son and I have no intention of holding concurrent posts," Yang Ming replied.

Now not only Gao Jiong is relieved, but everyone else is also relieved. It's easy to say that the biggest competitor is gone. The rest of us are not much worse than anyone else. We all have equal opportunities and fair competition.

Yang Guang asked curiously: "Does King Qin have a favorite candidate in mind?"

At this time, everyone's concerns started to rise. After all, although Yang Ming didn't do it himself, his words carried great weight.

"My sons recommended Wei Yue, Duke of Guancheng, to take over," Yang Ming said.

Ah? Yang Guang was deceived

There was an uproar in the hall, everyone was whispering and talking.

If Wei Yue hadn't been the only living son of Xiaoyao Gong Wei Kui, all the princes in the court would have almost forgotten about this man.

But Yang Guang did not forget it, because Wei Yue once served as a legal officer in the Jin Dynasty.

Yu Wenshu and the others were also confused. What was going on? How could Yang Ming recommend someone from the Wei family? What deals did they have in private?

Wonderful, Gao Jiong exclaimed in his heart, Wei Yue is absolutely impossible to take over as the general. Apart from being rich, he has nothing to ask for. What qualifications does he have to replace Shi Wansui?

But Yang Ming's move is very clever, it is tantamount to sowing discord. The Wei family will definitely send someone immediately to ask Wei Yue, what's going on? What do you want to do? Steal everything?

As a result, the Crown Princess's father-in-law became suspicious even if he was not suspicious. Jing Zhaowei, who was originally solid, might have an internal crisis because of Yang Ming's words.

"Wei Yue, a guilty minister, what qualifications does he have to succeed as general?" Yu Shiji was careless and came out to attack Yang Ming again.

As soon as these words came out, Yu Wenshu and Lai Hu'er exclaimed at the same time, "You idiot, the Wei family is with us, what the hell are you doing?"

Sure enough, some people don't like to hear this.

There are quite a few people with the surname Wei in the court at the moment. They have just set up a matchmaking relationship with their daughter, and they are of the same race. Wei Zhen, the servant of the Huangmen, cannot help but stand up:

"The Supreme Lord just scolded Duke Guancheng back then. He just thought that Duke Guancheng's moral behavior was lacking. How come you are now a guilty minister? You still have the title and salary, so why are you a guilty minister?"

Si Li, who was not driving Wei Fuzi, also stood up and mocked: "Isn't it the crime given by Minister Yu? May I ask what your title is?"

"He has a shitty title," Wei Kuangbo, the general of the Right Prefecture, said even more unpleasantly: "He is just a doctor named Jin Zi Guang Lu."

"The King of Qin struck him too lightly last time, so I wish he could be cured so quickly," Secretary Cheng Wei Wanqing said.

Yu Shiji blushed and felt thick-necked, knowing that he had made a mistake and offended the public.

If he comes from the south and dares to confront someone from his hometown, isn't that asking for death?

Yang Guang wanted to protect him, but it was difficult for him to do so.

"Why did King Qin recommend Wei Yue?" Yang Guang opened his mouth, which was like forcibly interrupting their confrontation.

Because I wanted to sow discord, Yang Ming replied: "Wei Yue is the son of Xiaoyao Gong and the younger brother of Shangyong Gong Wei Shikang. He has enough prestige. What's more, most of the Youtun guards are from Guanzhong, and Wei Yue is also from Guanzhong, which makes it easier to manage."

This statement is obviously untenable. I have never heard that the general of the military government is recommended based on the household registration book.

"This is a big fallacy," Guo Rong stood up and said, "Most of the Sixteenth Guards are from Guanzhong. Is it possible that the generals of the Sixteenth Guards are all from Guanzhong?"

After that, Guo Rong saluted Yang Guang and said, "I recommend myself to be the general of Youtun Guard."

As soon as he said this, he immediately aroused a burst of cynicism in the palace, and he unintentionally blocked Yang Ming's arrow.

"If Guo Rong wants to do it, let him do it," Yang Ming said.

"Child's play!" Yang Guang yelled angrily, what happened to the third child today? Why did he just say such nonsense?

Guo Rong felt embarrassed because he couldn't guess whether Yang Ming's words were sarcastic or sarcastic.

Yang Ming didn't care much about this position. No matter who did it, Shi Wansui's foundation in Youtunwei could not be touched. If he wanted to evade the opponent, it would only take a matter of minutes.

Yang Guang thought about it and decided to give it to Chang Suncheng. After all, Chang Suncheng had made great efforts during this northern tour, and now he has brought Qimin Khan to Yulin County to greet him.

As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, no one stopped arguing. After all, everyone knew the emperor's temper. If he objected forcefully, he would make himself uncomfortable.

Originally, the meeting was about to end here, but at Dali Temple, an official presented a memorial.

This is the rule of the Sui Dynasty. If any ministries and yamen have important matters, they can directly submit them to the court.

After Dali Temple Minister Zheng Shanguo finished reading it, he did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly handed it to his chamberlain Gao Ye and presented it to Yang Guang.

This memorial is a complaint. The complainant is named Yuan Shan, who is currently the Luoyang Dacao. He is suing the daughter of Zhao Guogong Dugu Zuan for committing murder and violating the law.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The man Dugu Feng'er killed had a title and was a soldier. According to law, such crimes must be reported to Dali Temple.

However, Dugu Zuan suppressed the situation and refused to retaliate, and was stabbed by Yuan Shan.

Yang Guang is unhappy. He can ignore Daye Law, but others can't.

"Bastard!" Yang Guang threw the memorial to the ground.

When he said "bastard", he was not scolding Dugu Zuan or Dugu Feng'er, but Yang Jian.

The memorial records some of the rumors that have spread wildly in Luoyang recently, such as Yang Su poisoning Dugu Feng'er, Pei Ju and Yang Yue's secret fight, a fire in King Qin's backyard, etc.

This was obviously the second child who was causing trouble, so much so that he offended Dugunu, and then he started killing people.

But the main purpose of this memorial is still to file a complaint. After all, it involves the life of a distinguished person. You have been accused of it. Yang Guang is deliberately trying to cover it up, so it is not convenient for him to say it openly. He has to be told by others.

Since the matter has been brought to the court meeting, it is natural for everyone to circulate it and discuss it together.

After Yang Ming read it, he was indifferent and passed it to Su Wei beside him.

Gradually, more and more people who watched it began to secretly pay attention to the changes in Yang Ming's expression.

Everyone can see that this matter is directed at Yang Ming.

"You bastard!" Yang Xuangan threw away the memorial, stood up and said angrily: "For spreading rumors and slander, Your Majesty should immediately order Dali Temple to investigate."

"Pick up the memorial," Yang Ming, who was sitting opposite Xuangan, said calmly.

Yang Xuangan also knew that he had lost his composure, so he picked up the memorial and handed it to others to circulate.

Yang Yue didn't make any move because he had a guilty conscience. This was called tit for tat. He guessed that this was Yang Jian's revenge. The little beast's level of spreading rumors was so low that he dared to involve Yong'an Palace? You have no brains.

"The main discussion in the memorial is about the death. As for the rumors, people from Dali Temple in Luoyang are also investigating. I think the truth will be revealed soon," said Zheng Shanguo, the minister of Dali Temple: "What we mainly discuss is what to do about this fate.

Judgment."

Zheng Shanguo is a smart man. Rumors involve so many big people. Even if they are not rumors, they must be rumors, so he emphasizes the rumors and weakens the rumors.

"Of course the sentence is according to the law," Yuwen said: "Is it possible that because she is the daughter of the Duke of the country, she can be exempted from crime?"

As soon as these words came out, the brothers Dugu Kai, the general of the right garrison, and Dugu Sheng, the general of the right imperial guard, became unhappy.

The two of them have no blood relationship with the Dugu family, but they were given the surname Dugu by Dugu Jialuo's father, Dugu Xin. Like Gao Jiong, they are Dugu retainers.

Without the Dugu family, the two of them would not be where they are today.

Dugu Kai said directly: "Of course you can be exempted. Our Sui Dynasty Code has eight discussions: discussing relatives, discussing old friends, discussing talents, discussing abilities, discussing merits, discussing nobles, discussing diligence, and discussing guests. You can discuss according to the circumstances, please, reduce,

"Dang, forgive me. The daughter of Duke Zhao was raised at the knees of the Holy Queen when she was young. This alone can exempt her from sin."

Sun Chi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, said: "Although the eucalyptus has been reported to Dali Temple, and according to the law, it should be asked for three times, but now that your majesty has seen it in person, it is naturally unnecessary. According to the law, Dugu Nu meets the eight proposals for marriage and reasons.

If you discuss merit and honor, your crime will be avoided."

Yu Wenshu stopped refuting, which really made Dugu Zhuan angry, which was not good either.

So he borrowed rumors and said, "Did Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment still have no clue about Dugu Nu's madness?"

If you want to abolish Nima Yi, we would have already reported it if we had any clues. Why do you still need to ask?

Zheng Shanguo and Changsun Chi didn't take this issue at all.

At this time, Yang Ming stood up and saluted:

"If Feng'er is guilty, I am willing to pay for it."

Okay, now no one dares to speak. Anyone who keeps holding on to you is tantamount to asking the King of Qin for culpability. He can be punished for crimes such as treason and the following, so killing someone is not a big deal.

Yang Guang said solemnly:

"Who is spreading rumors, who is slandering the Duke of Chu, and falsely accusing his virtuous name? Dali Temple must find out. The Censor of the Ministry of Punishment will send people to Luoyang to arrest all those involved."

"Yes!" The chief officers of the three divisions stood up one after another to receive the order.

Yang Xun's goal has been achieved. He just wanted to bring the matter to the court, make it known to everyone, and make the Yang and Pei families suspicious.

Not everyone will choose not to believe rumors. If one-third of people believe it, it is already very scary.

There is no smoke without fire. Many people at the court already believed that Yang Su was responsible for Dugu Feng'er's matter. After all, the rumors seemed completely reasonable.

The more suppressed a rumor is, the closer it is to the truth.

Really smart people will not believe it, but people who think they are smart will easily believe it.
