Yang Yuanqing looked at the extremely busy recruiting sergeant. In fact, he knew that if he showed up and expressed his attitude, he could inspire a greater recruitment enthusiasm. But when he thought that it would attract the city to welcome him, he felt a little upset and shook his heart.
He shook his head and said, "They are very busy. Don't disturb us anymore and go home quietly!"
The personal soldiers turned their horses and headed towards the royal palace. Soon, Yang Yuanqing returned to his mansion. Unlike last time, he did not alarm his family when he returned home. The door of the mansion was deserted and there was no family outside to greet him.
.
Yang Yuanqing turned over and got off the horse. When he turned around, he saw a ox cart coming from behind, followed by several guards. This was his eldest son Yang Ning who returned from school. Yang Yuanqing nodded secretly and returned in the ox cart. This was a good thing.
"Dad!"
Yang Ning saw his father from the car window and shouted happily. Before the ox cart could stop, he jumped out of the cart and staggered and almost fell to the ground. Yang Yuanqing quickly glanced and grabbed his son's arm.
"Why are you becoming anxious?" Yang Yuanqing smiled, with a kind of blame in his tone.
"When my father came back, the child was happy and suddenly forgot his master's instructions. He should be as calm as water. The child knew his mistake." Yang Ning stood in front of his father with his hands down, lowered his head and replied.
Speaking of the master, Yang Yuanqing remembered the last time the jade seal, so he considered changing his son to another master. He felt that Li Gang had some problems in educating his son, and did not let his son understand some fundamental principles, so he was used by Pei Ju.
, make childish actions.
However, Yang Yuanqing still wanted to have a good talk with his son. His son was eight years old and it seemed that they had never communicated with each other. This was his dereliction of duty by Yang Yuanqing as his father.
"You go back to your room first! Clean up, and then come to my inner study room. I have something to talk to you."
"Yes! My child said goodbye first."
Yang Ning turned around and trotted to the inner house. He wanted to tell his mother that his father was back. Ren is no different. He can already kill leopards and tigers, but his eldest son is still a thin boy, completely different from him. He looks more like his mother.
, This made Yang Yuanqing feel more or less regretful.{.
However, the times are different. I have to go through the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and I really need force, while my son wants to go from chaos to rule, which requires mind and talent. Especially the eldest son, who is his heir, Yang Yuanqing suddenly feels that
You should shoulder the heavy responsibility of educating your son. Some things your master cannot give you, and the father must teach you to your son.
Yang Yuanqing walked into the mansion. At this time, Pei Minqiu had heard the news that her husband was back and hurriedly came out. "Husband, why don't you send someone to report first?"
When Yang Yuanqing left home ten days ago, he was a little angry with his wife and the Pei family. He really neglected his wife at that time, and Yang Yuanqing was a little guilty afterwards. After all, a couple who had been with ten years should not be severed from their affection because of this.
More importantly, he believed that this matter had nothing to do with his wife.
Yang Yuanqing also laughed, walked forward quickly, hugged his wife tightly in his arms. Although it was a bit reckless and abrupt, it was easy for the maids to make jokes. But Pei Minqiu didn't want to push her husband away. She felt her husband's powerful arms.
This silent language made Pei Minqiu feel the love in her husband's heart. Her nose felt sore, and the grievance in her heart made her eyes wet.
"Husband, are you going to have a meal?" Pei Minqiu asked with a choking voice.
Yang Yuanqing held his wife's shoulders and looked at her and smiled, "I've eaten it. I'll go to the inner study room and wait for me to talk to Ning'er. You can fry a pot of hot tea for me."
Pei Minqiu was surprised, "What are you going to talk to Ning'er?"
Yang Yuanqing had a smile on his face and tried to say to his wife in a gentle tone: "It's nothing. I found that I don't know much about my son. I'm not a good father. I want to teach him something."
Pei Minqiu's heart suddenly became warm. The husband said this, which means that he had forgiven Ning'er. She agreed happily, "I'll give you tea."
.........
In the study, Yang Yuanqing had already changed into loose clothes. The charcoal basin had been brought in the room, but it had not warmed up the room. The cold breath made Yang Yuanqing's mind clearer. He was thinking about how to communicate with his son.
.
In fact, Yang Yuanqing also faces a choice. He gave up his eldest son because of the Pei family, or saved his eldest son and eliminated the Pei family. Yang Yuanqing already knew very well that the Pei family had put the bet on his eldest son Yang Ning. In the future, the Pei family would probably be
A powerful relative of the government and the country.
But Yang Yuanqing also knew that it was not realistic to eradicate the Pei family now, especially when Pei Ju was still alive. Eliminating the Pei family too early would cause extreme dissatisfaction among the Shandong gentry, which would lead to chaos and affect his overall situation of pacifying the world. He should still make a peaceful arrangement.
The Pei family will be slowly eliminated in three or five years.
The most urgent task now is to let the son understand that he must follow his father.
"Father!"
A son's slightly childish voice came from outside the door, "Can you come in?"
"Come in!"
The son's tender voice made Yang Yuanqing feel a little warmth in his heart. He tried his best to calm his mind, put all his anger aside, and warned himself that he should not get angry with his son no matter what.
The door opened, and Yang Ning walked in. This was the first time he entered his father's inner study. It was said that this was the highest secret in the Sui Dynasty. He was a little curious and looked around secretly, but found that except for a shelf,
There was no other special file cabinet, which made him a little disappointed.
"Why, what do you think my father's inner study room should look like?" Yang Yuanqing saw his son's curious eyes and asked with a smile.
Yang Ning stood respectfully with his hands down and whispered: "I heard from Master that my father's inner study was the highest forbidden area of the Great Sui Dynasty. Master said that he also wanted to see what it looked like."
Yang Yuanqing couldn't help laughing. Does Li Gang, who has always been cold-faced and serious, have this kind of childlike innocence? At this moment, Yang Yuanqing's impression of Li Gang was better, at least it showed that their master and apprentice had a deep relationship.
"Do you feel that my father's study is a bit disappointing?"
"There's a little bit." Yang Ning said timidly.
"Yeah!" Yang Yuanqing was very satisfied with his son's honesty and said meaningfully: "Actually, the inner study room is just a place for fathers to think and rest. He does not want to be disturbed. There is no secret. If you talk about confidentiality, I, the most expensive person in the Great Sui Dynasty, is the most expensive.
The thing should be the imperial seal, but where is it? In the Jinyang Palace's basement, Fu Baolang has to inspect it every day. In addition, the guards and the military officers of the Records Office have to open the door at the same time. So, such precious things are all there
Underground Palace, what else can I have in my inner study room?"
When Yang Ning heard his father mention the imperial seal, he was so scared that his face was pale. He knelt down and cried and admitted his mistake: "The child did something wrong, please punish him."
"What wrong did you do?" Yang Yuanqing said without saying a word.
"The child believed the words of his great-grandfather and buried a fake jade seal in the back garden of our mansion. The child thought it would be good for his father, so he believed it. The child knew his mistake and asked his father to punish him." Yang Ning's tears rustled.
Rolling out of your eyes.
Yang Yuanqing was very relieved. He was not afraid of his son making mistakes, but was afraid that his son would not know his mistakes or conceal or deceive himself. As long as his son truly repents, there is nothing that cannot be forgiven between the father and the son, but Yang Yuanqing still had a knot in his heart. Could this be Pei Jurang
My son is here to admit his mistake.
"Tell dad, why did you know that you were wrong?" Yang Yuanqing asked calmly.
"Three days ago, the master found that the three students from the Pei family had left. He asked the child, and the child told the master about this. As a result, the master slapped the child hard on the hand."
Yang Ning sobbed and opened his left hand, and saw that his palm was blue and swollen. Although it had been three days, it did not fade. It showed that Li Gang beat him very hard, which made Yang Yuan feel distressed. He asked quickly: "
Does your mother know?"
"Mom also knows it. She scolded me too. Father, the child really knows his mistake and dares not."
Yang Yuanqing actually just asked his son if his mother knew that he was beaten. Unexpectedly, Yang Ning said that his mother knew about it. Yang Yuanqing suddenly understood that his wife probably went to the Pei family, so the three students of the Pei family were transferred.
Walk.
But it’s not enough to just know the mistake. Yang Yuanqing also has to tell his son where the mistake was.
"Sit down!" Yang Yuanqing pointed to the couch next to him.
"My father is here, but the child dare not."
"Um!"
Yang Yuanqing nodded, "Then you get up!"
Yang Ning stood up, and then Yang Yuanqing said slowly: "My father suffered a lot when you were so old, but he also understood a lot of things. My father did not have high requirements for you, so he didn't want you to be very knowledgeable, but at least
You have to understand the truth.”
Yang Ning lowered his hand and listened quietly to his father's teachings. He did not dare to interrupt at all. He did a good job in etiquette, but Yang Yuanqing didn't care about his etiquette.
Yang Yuanqing said again: "Actually, when you first met me today, I jumped off the ox cart. I don't think there is any problem. Even if you climb a tree to dig a bird's nest, I won't be angry, because these are all minor details, and I don't care.
The sub-section is to act in a straightforward way. At least until you are twelve years old, your father will not care about your sub-section, but righteousness is very important. What is righteousness? To put it simply, it means that you cannot hide your father from doing things, and be loyal to your father, like
My great-grandfather asked you to bury the seal. As an eight-year-old child, you read such a book again. You should know that it is a big deal. You must not hide this kind of thing from your father. If your father is not here, you cannot do it."
Yang Ning's eyes turned red again, "Do you think this is good for your father?"
"So this is because you don't understand the righteousness. How do you know it is good for your father? You know why your great-grandfather asked you to bury the jade seal. He could let your mother bury it, but why didn't he look for your mother but you, these questions
Have you ever thought about it?"
Yang Ning was shocked. He really didn't think about it. Yang Yuanqing sighed again, "Because you are still a child, you don't understand many things and think you are smart. In fact, I tell you, I am afraid that others will let me ascend the throne now.
This will ruin my big deal. Even your great-grandfather has selfish intentions. He is for the benefit of the Pei family, not for the benefit of his father."
"I understand!" Yang Ning regretted and hated him. He really understood this time.
"It's fine if you understand. I originally wanted to change you to a master, but for the sake of this hand-paying, let it go this time. Tomorrow morning, you will go to the morning court with your father. One hour a day, I will give you the Ziwei Half Circle.
