.......
Yang Su is also in the house today, but he is in a very bad mood. Something happened in the court yesterday, which affected his mood. Tuli Khan is about to go to Beijing to marry Princess Anyi, and the Holy Emperor has ordered him to take full responsibility for this matter.
Yesterday, Yang Su went to the guest house of Honglu Temple to check the preparations, but found that the yard of the guest house was full of horse shit, and more than twenty servants gathered on the felt rug used by the distinguished guests to gamble. In fact, this was not a big deal. He reprimanded
Just one session is enough.
However, because Yang Su had an old grudge with Chen Yan, the young minister of Honglu Temple, he secretly told the emperor about the matter. He originally wanted the emperor to reprimand Chen Yan, but unexpectedly, the emperor became furious and ordered the emperor who was responsible for the reception of Honglu Temple to be removed.
The host and guest ordered all the twenty or so servants who participated in the gambling to be killed with sticks. Chen Yan was also beaten with a hundred sticks until he was on the verge of death.
This incident made Yang Su quite upset. He did not want such serious consequences to occur. Killing someone on the second day of the new year was not a good sign. Moreover, there was a clan sacrifice today, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
In fact, Yang Su also knew that the emperor was becoming increasingly moody. In November last year, the emperor ordered Qu Tutong, the governor of the bodyguard, to go to Longxi to inspect the ranch managed by Taipu Temple. As a result, he found that 20,000 war horses were not registered.
The Holy One was furious and wanted to behead all the ministers of Taipusi Temple, Murong Sidda, and more than 1,500 officials from various ranches. Thanks to Qu Tutong's desperate remonstrance, the Holy One came to his senses and spared these more than 1,500 people.
people.
The emperor's temper became increasingly moody, which made Yang Su feel like he was accompanying the emperor like a tiger.
Yang Su sat in the room and sighed. Today the Yang Mansion is going to hold a clan sacrifice, but the ghosts of more than twenty people who were beaten to death yesterday are still alive, which makes him extremely anxious. He dare not hold the clan sacrifice. At this time, the only choice is to postpone the clan sacrifice.
In a few days, let’s get rid of those grievances first and then talk about it.
"master!"
The voice of his wife He Ruoyunniang came from the door, "Can I come in?"
"Come in!" Yang Su stopped thinking.
Soon, a gust of fragrant wind blew in, and the tall and fat He Ruoyunniang walked in. She held a bag in her hand and saluted Yang Suyingying, "I, He Ruoyunniang, meet the master!"
When Yang Su first married He Ruoyunniang, he liked her very much. She was tall and plump, and she served him wholeheartedly on the bed. However, as He Ruoyunniang became fatter and fatter, his feelings for her also faded. Yang Su had hundreds of flowers like jade.
As a wife and concubine, he really had no interest in He Ruoyunniang, but for the sake of her brother He Ruobi and Queen Dugu, he seemed to treat He Ruoyunniang with respect.
He smiled slightly and pointed to the couch, "Sit down!"
Mother He Ruoyun had a violent personality and could not hide things in her heart. When she got the account book, she immediately came to complain to her husband.
He Ruoyunniang sat down and asked, "Does the master usually take care of the family's income and expenditure?"
Yang Su was stunned for a moment, "Don't you have accounts? Every six months, Manager Hua will collect the accounts and report to me. What's wrong?"
He Ruoyunniang took out a secret account stolen by Manager Ma from her bag and handed it to Yang Su, "Master, take a look at what is recorded in this account. Do you understand it?"
Yang Su took the account book and flipped through a few pages, his brows gradually furrowed. He didn't know many of the income and expenditures in the account. His eyes were filled with anger, and he immediately turned around and ordered a maid, "Call the third young master!
"
The third son is Yang Xuanzang, the third son. He is tall, majestic and good at riding. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he will serve as a general on horseback and no longer care about the family affairs.
Soon, Yang Xuanzang was brought into the room by the maid. Yang Xuanzang was planning the clan sacrifice this afternoon. I wonder what his father wanted from him? When he saw that He Ruoyunniang was also present, with a proud look on his face, he suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart.
He quickly knelt down and said, "Xuanzong, my son, comes to meet his father!"
Yang Su controlled the anger in his heart and asked him first, "How are the preparations for the clan sacrifice?"
"Reply to father, it's almost done, we can hold it on time in the afternoon."
"The afternoon clan festival is canceled and postponed to the eighth day of the lunar month."
Yang Xuanzang was stunned, "Father, why is this?"
"There's no reason. If I ask you to postpone it, just postpone it!" Yang Su's voice began to sound a little dissatisfied.
Yang Xuanzang had no choice but to agree, "Yes! I will do as I am told."
Yang Su couldn't restrain his anger anymore and threw the account book in front of him, "Tell me, what's going on in this account book?"
Yang Xuanzang's heart skipped a beat. He understood that this was He Ruoyunniang's attack on him. The things recorded in this account book were all the large income and expenditures that were secretly handled by his three brothers during their stewardship. They didn't want to record them in the family account books, but it wasn't because they were fat.
It's private, but they don't want people to know.
Yang Xuanzang kowtowed quickly and said: "Father, this secret account was proposed by the child. It is mainly because I don't want too many people to know some family secrets, so I let Manager Hua record it alone. The property in the account is all there and has not been misappropriated. Or
A family thing.”
"Hmph! You don't want too many people to know, so you keep it a secret even from me, right?" Yang Su asked angrily.
"The boy didn't dare to hide it from his father. In fact, these things were included in the account sheet given to him by Manager Hua, but there was no special note, so my father didn't notice it."
Yang Su stared at him for a long time, and he suddenly took out a property booklet from the box. This was the half-year report that Manager Hua reported to him in December last year.
He flipped through a few pages and checked the data on the account sheet one by one. Gradually, his expression became a little calmer. Most of the information on the account sheet was indeed there, but he only saw the results, not the records on the account book.
process, and because there were too many things, he didn’t take a closer look.
But there was still something to hide. Yang Su snorted heavily, "Is this how you use it to hide it from me? You thought I wouldn't look closely, so you deliberately didn't let me know."
Yang Su turned to one of the pages and asked: "Let me ask you, the account list says that there are 3,000 horses in the Yang family ranch, but your account records 11,000 horses, a difference of 8,000 horses."
Pi, what's going on?"
Yang Xuanzang wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered: "Have you forgotten, father? In fact, there were 10,000 horses on the account list the year before last. Later, my father asked me to reduce it to 3,000 horses."
"I have not forgotten that I ordered you to reduce the number to 3,000 horses so that you could sell them instead of asking you to change the accounts."
Yang Su suddenly became furious, hit Yang Xuanzang on the head with a ledger, and cursed: "You bastard, do you want to kill our whole family?"
Yang Xuanzong kowtowed repeatedly, "I don't dare anymore. I was confused for a moment, but I know I was wrong."
Yang Su took a long breath and slowly calmed down. He originally wanted to say to Yang Xuanzang, "Now the Holy Father is becoming more and more suspicious and moody. Last year, Taipus Temple concealed 20,000 horses and almost killed 1,500 horses."
Man, if he knew we were hiding eight thousand horses, what would be the consequences?'
But He Ruoyun was nearby, so he refrained from saying anything. Instead, he calmed down and changed his words: "Although the Holy Father allows us to raise horses, it is inevitable that jealous people in the court will spread rumors and cause unnecessary trouble. I will let you
If you deal with it, you will avoid others making a fuss about it, do you understand?"
Yang Xuanzang lowered his head in shame, "I know I was wrong, kid."
"Go! From now on, you brothers don't have to worry about family affairs anymore."
"yes!"
Yang Xuanzang knew that He Ruoyunniang was going to win, and he held a grudge in his heart, but he had no choice but to accept the defeat and stood up to retreat.
Only He Ruoyunniang and Yang Su were left in the room. He Ruoyunniang's heart was beating with excitement. Her intuition told her that Yang Su was going to hand over the power of the family to her. Just like his ex-wife Zheng, the Yang family would officially
The mistress is in charge.
Yang Su glanced at her fat face that turned red with excitement. Of course he knew the purpose of He Ruoyun's complaint. In fact, the third son Yang Xuanzong was released as an official and could no longer take care of the family affairs. He just wanted to hand over the power of the family to
He Ruoyunniang, let her take charge of it for a few years and then transfer it to others. This can balance the conflicts within the family. After all, He Ruoyunniang has been evacuated from power for twelve years. He can understand her dissatisfaction and feels that it is unfair to her.
If He Ruoyunniang didn't complain, Yang Su would announce the transfer of power to her in the afternoon. But now he changed his mind. He Ruoyunniang's complaint made Yang Su feel a little disgusted with her. He decided not to let He Ruoyunniang take power directly, but to let her take power indirectly.
, put some restrictions on her.
Thinking of this, Yang Su said calmly: "Xuan Zong is about to be released, and the power of the housekeeper will be taken over by a new person. Please recommend someone to me!"
He Ruoyunniang was stunned. She recommended someone, but it was not her who was in charge. She tried hard for a long time, but still could not get the power of the family, and made a wedding dress for someone else. He Ruoyunniang felt extremely frustrated.
"Why, don't you have anyone suitable to recommend?" Yang Su asked again.
"No! No! I can recommend someone."
He Ruoyunniang didn't dare to think any more. Although she wouldn't get the power, she could recommend someone she could control to take power, which meant that she was indirectly in power. She said, "I recommend Lao Si Jishan to take over the position of Xuan Zong."
The fourth son, Yang Jishan, was born from a concubine and had no conflict of interest with He Ruoyunniang. Moreover, he was ostracized by his three brothers, so he and He Ruoyunniang had the same problem. It was for this reason that mother and son got very close and almost formed an alliance.
, if He Ruoyunniang cannot take power, then she will definitely recommend Yang Jishan.
Yang Su understood in his heart, so he nodded and said, "Okay! Tomorrow I will announce that Ji Shan will replace Xuan Zong and take control of the family."
