Xu Heng's words diluted the grief caused by Yang Dayuan's death.
The eyes of the three uncles and nephews of the Yang family seemed to be ignited, and they all became a little high-spirited.
"The name of the country...what is the name of the country?"
"The territory of this dynasty is so vast that it has never been seen in ancient times. Your Majesty believes that naming the city after its first rise, like the Han and Tang Dynasties, is not enough to express its grandeur. Therefore, he deliberately took the meaning of 'Great Qianyuan' from the Book of Changes and decided The country’s name is…”
Xu Heng became more solemn and slowly uttered two words.
"Dayuan."
The hall was quiet for a while, and then Yang Daqi repeated: "Dayuan."
He chewed on the name of the country, and after a while, he muttered in a low voice: "This is the name of a country that has never been seen in history."
The four people in the audience slowed down the pace of their conversation, each thinking about it and understanding the meaning behind this matter.
Of course, deciding on the name of the country is not just a simple matter of "changing the name". It changes the entire political power. It is the most important step in turning the barbarians into Han.
There are many interests that are closely related to people like them.
Such as official position, title, and name in history, and these determine the identity.
What does it mean to determine one’s identity?
A counselor follows a lord to conquer the world, rides on the horse and goes through life and death, what kind of reward will he get in the end? Unknown.
And now, the Yang family helped found the Yuan Dynasty, which is a real contribution...
As soon as he thought of this, Yang Daqi burst into tears.
"Second brother! Second brother!"
"Second brother, why do you want to see that insidious villain Li Xia?! Why?"
It is conceivable that if Yang Dayuan had not died and Kublai Khan established his country this time, he would definitely be rewarded.
The current situation in northern Shaanxi relies on the Yang family to fight against Li Xia, and the people in the Central Plains are unstable, so they are relying on the Yang family to play the role of buying horse bones for a thousand dollars.
However, what a pity that Yang Dayuan died on the eve of receiving a huge reward.
Yang Dajiao beat his chest and stamped his feet, becoming even more sad.
Xu Heng originally had something to say, but seeing Yang Daqi like this, he couldn't say it for a moment. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry tonight, so he turned to Yang Wen'an and said: "Let's hold the funeral for Marshal Yang first, and we can talk about it tomorrow. "
"This junior is sending Mr. Lu Zhai." Yang Wen'an said.
Yang Daqi stopped crying and said, "I'll see Mr. Lu Zhai off."
Xu Heng did not refuse and went to rest first under the guidance of Yang Daji.
Two brothers, Yang Wenzhong and Yang Wen'an, were left sitting in the hall.
Yang Wenzhong leaned back tiredly, rubbed his forehead, and asked: "Uncle was obviously killed by Li Xia, what are you asking me about tonight?"
"It's always good to ask."
Yang Wenzhong said: "I understand what you mean. There are only two people who can attack my uncle. One is Li Xia, and the other is..."
When he said this, he pointed his finger to the sky, pointing to Kublai Khan.
This time, Xu Heng came on behalf of Kublai Khan, and the timing was so coincidental that no one said anything about it, so there was no guarantee that no one would suspect it.
Yang Wen'an said: "I don't doubt Mr. Lu Zhai. I heard an anecdote today... During the war, Mr. Lu Zhai took refuge in Heyang in midsummer. He was very thirsty and encountered a pear tree on the roadside. Others went to pick it, but he was the only one who sat under the tree without moving."
"Because the pear tree has an owner?"
"Someone told Mr. Lu Zhai that in these troubled times, the pear tree ran away even if it had an owner. He replied: The pear has no owner, so my heart has no owner?" After Yang Wen'an said this, he shook his head and said: "That's it. A person would not assassinate his uncle."
Yang Wenzhong asked: "If my second brother doesn't doubt Mr. Lu Zhai... shouldn't he doubt me? Just because I was the only one who was with my uncle at that time?"
Yang Wen'an looked at his brother, his face was calm, and he said calmly: "I told you, it's better to ask clearly to avoid others gossiping."
Yang Wenzhong's throat rolled slightly and he turned his head, feeling a little confused and uneasy.
"Second brother, believe me, I didn't harm my uncle... My uncle had to cross the river. I didn't stop him or protect him. I thought Li Xia wouldn't kill him, but I didn't expect this to happen."
"I know." Yang Wen'an said.
"I was negligent. Li Xia has always been good at assassinations, and he started his career as an assassin."
"Yes, he insists on assassinating people on the small road, and is shameless to the people of the world."
…
After a while, Yang Daqi came back, with a sad look on his face. He sat down at the top and said, "Just now, Mr. Lu Zhai said that he would write a letter asking your Majesty to grant the second brother a title."
Yang Wenzhong raised his head, a little confused.
"I should be able to pursue the title of Duke, but I don't know if I can inherit it." Yang Daqi said: "However, what is certain is that according to the Mongolian Kingdom... according to the practice of the Yuan Dynasty, Wen Can can inherit the position of marshal of the capital from his second brother."
"As it should be."
"Yes, that's what it should be."
"Mr. Lu Zhai also said that Wen Chan was too weak as a man. He wanted to ask Your Majesty to set up a general's palace in the footsteps of the Wang family in Gongchang, and then nominate a person from the Yang family who can convince everyone, and give him a golden tiger talisman.
He is the pacifying envoy of Sichuan and Shaanxi, the marshal in charge of the military and civilian affairs, and the prime minister in charge of the marshal's affairs."
This is a characteristic of the great Mongol kingdom's preferential treatment of princes.
Just like the Wang family has a commander-in-chief, Wang Weizheng, but Wang Zhongchen, Wang Liangchen and others are also marshals. They not only assist Wang Weizheng, but also have their own towns and futures.
To put it simply, Yang Dayuan's position was inherited by Yang Wecan, while the military power was inherited by other members of the Yang family.
Throughout history, no other dynasty treated its princes as kindly as the Mongolian Kingdom.
Yang Daji said, unable to hide the yearning in his eyes.
He turned to look at his two nephews and said, "Li Xia is in Yanzhou City now, watching eagerly. Tomorrow we will gather the generals to recommend him, how about it?"
Yang Wenzhong hesitated slightly.
Today, he and Yang Dayuan went together to meet Li Xia by the Yanhe River. In the end, they failed to protect Yang Dayuan and were unable to send troops to take revenge. They were no longer qualified to fight for the time being.
He simply responded: "Why recommend it? Third uncle should be in charge."
Yang Daqi was very satisfied and looked at Yang Wen'an.
In terms of military merit, Yang Wen'an once repulsed the Lu family's army and even shot Lu Wende with an arrow, but he was still young after all. Yang Daqi hoped that his nephew would be able to do it this time.
Yang Wen'an looked sad and said: "My nephew will go to keep vigil for my uncle first."
He stood up and left, knelt down in the mourning hall, took a wad of paper money, and paid for
Yang Dayuan burns paper.
The yellow paper fell into the basin, and smoke curled up...
~~
Yanzhou City.
Just like the last time we met outside Chengdu, Zhang Jue was sitting by the stove warming his wine, while Li Xia was sitting opposite him.
"Did Kublai Khan send people to kill Yang Dayuan?" Zhang Jue asked, "For example, there were people from Kublai Khan in his army."
"There must be such spies, but Kublai Khan would not do such a thing. He is a monarch, and his prestige is more important than assassinating a general who has not yet rebelled."
As Li Xia spoke, Zhang Jue raised the wine bottle and asked him if he wanted a drink. He shook his head.
"The monarch assassinates his ministers, especially in front of my enemy. Once confirmed by me, his prestige will be greatly damaged. You can see how he dealt with Li Fen. He didn't take action until Li Fen raised his flag to rebel."
Zhang Jue asked: "Then we can confirm that Kublai Khan killed Yang Dayuan?"
"It can't be confirmed. There is no evidence, and the person who suffered it doesn't admit it." Li Xia shook his head, and then said: "However, we can spread some rumors and win some public opinion."
"Why is there no evidence? Do you think it was not Kublai Khan who sent someone to do it? Impossible." Zhang Jue said: "Otherwise, who else could it be?"
"I'm also thinking... You see, Yang Dayuan is determined to surrender, but he hasn't decided yet. Today, it has not affected the situation between me and Kublai Khan yet."
"What will be most affected?" Zhang Jue pondered: "What if Yang Dayuan surrenders, and you will give him less power?"
"If Kublai Khan gave the Yang family more power in order to appease people's hearts, so that some of Yang Dayuan's relatives or subordinates would be determined to be loyal to Kublai Khan to the end..."
At this time, Yang Dayuan has already delayed his future as soon as he sees you?"
"Yes! I noticed it during the First World War in Hancheng. Kublai Khan is now promoting the younger generation of princes, replacing the old with the new, and taking control of the military power of the princes." Li Xia said: "What I am confused about is how much he has been given.
The advantage is that this person can kill Yang Dayuan so decisively."
"You can't give it. You are just a county king. How can you still give people titles and titles?" Zhang Jue touched Li Xia's water glass with his wine glass and said, "Let's make a bet. Who do you think did it?"
"I don't understand the Yang family's situation as well as you do."
"Then let me guess first, if it wasn't Kublai Khan who sent someone to take action, then it would be Yang Daqi. Remember, if Kublai Khan's people did it, I will win."
Li Xia asked back: "Who among the Yang family are you least willing to fight against?"
Zhang Jue was stunned, put down his glass and pondered for a while.
"Let me change my answer..."
~~
The next day.
The three armies in Saimen Village are all in peace.
Yang Daji stayed up all night and was ready to take over his brother's military power.
He has been with Yang Dayuan in the army for a long time and has sufficient prestige, so he is the most suitable candidate to command the army.
In the current situation in northern Shaanxi, it should not be difficult to continue to follow the "attack the city with the city" method left by Yang Dayuan, slowly advance the front line, make more achievements, and gain another prince within a few years.
But to his surprise, today was not what he thought, calling all the generals together for recommendation.
Xu Heng actually summoned the generals one by one, asked a few questions, and recorded the generals' words to His Majesty.
This made Yang Daqi a little disappointed.
Fortunately, only the way of recommendation is different. As far as he thinks, the result will not change...
~~
The first person to go to see Xu Heng was Zhang Dayue of Xingjun Wanhu.
Zhang Dayue used to be the guard general of Yunshan City. He was recruited by Yang Dayuan to surrender. After surrendering to Mongolia, he only followed Yang Dayuan.
Xu Heng first asked him if he was confident in commanding the army, but Zhang Dayue quickly declined. His power in the army was far inferior to that of the Yang family, and he thought he had no ability to seize power from the Yang family.
Xu Heng asked again who could command the army.
Zhang Dayue hesitated a little and responded: "In terms of qualifications, Brother Yang should be the most suitable, but in terms of ability to lead troops, Wen An is the most outstanding one."
Xu Heng was not surprised. He stroked his beard and said, "That's it."
Zhang Dayue's statement seems to have settled the matter.
After that, Xu Heng met with many generals. If someone said something good about Yang Daqi and Yang Wenzhong, Xu Heng would ask the other person what they thought of Yang Wen'an.
Most of the generals were convinced by Yang Wen'an.
Sitting aside was Xu Heng’s student Lu Duanshan, who was responsible for recording.
In the end, Lu Duanshan couldn't help but express the doubts in his heart.
"The teacher seems to be paying attention to Yang Wen'an?"
Xu Heng stroked his beard and said jokingly: "If you don't help him, what if he accuses me of sending someone to assassinate Yang Dayuan?"
Lu Duanshan was stunned.
This place is Yang Dayuan's old army. If anyone is accused of being the murderer of Yang Dayuan, those soldiers will really dare to take revenge.
Zuo Ye has been taking advantage of this, and the only one who can make people feel threatened is Yang Wen'an.
"Would he do it?"
"When Yang Dayuan died, was he facing east or west? Who has the final say?"
Lu Duanshan was horrified and said: "But we didn't. Yang Dayuan was definitely not assassinated by his teacher. It was Li Xia who did it."
"Of course Yang Wen'an understands, how could he not understand?"
Xu Heng seemed to admire Yang Wen'an very much, and said: "He also understands what he wants, and he made it very clear. He has a plan in his heart. If you satisfy him, he can be loyal to His Majesty and Dayuan..."
