As Yuwen Chenglong's grandfather, Yuwen Shu naturally knew what his grandson's memorial was about, and he already had a plan in mind to deal with it.
After hearing Yang Guang's inquiry, Yu Wenshu hurriedly walked out of the class to praise him and said, "Your Majesty, I think there is something fishy about this matter! There must be a huge secret behind this matter!"
At this moment, only Yang Guang, Yu Wenshu's ancestors and grandsons, and old man Su Wei really know what this memorial is about. The other civil and military officials, including Zuo Pushe and Yang Su, are still confused.
.
Then I heard the old man Yuwenshu in the room said to himself, "I heard that the sage king loves his people as his sons. All the people of our Sui Dynasty are his subjects."
"Today, Su Pushe took advantage of the opportunity of repairing Luoyang City to engage in nepotism, instructing subordinate officials to exploit the people, harming the countryside, and enriching his own pockets. In the past ten days, dozens of people have fled to Luoyang City, seriously alienating the father-son relationship between His Majesty and the people, and destroying the relationship between them.
Your Majesty's reputation among the people is really unfaithful, unfilial, benevolent and unjust! Therefore, I boldly ask Your Majesty to have old man Su Wei's family confiscated and his family exterminated and punished in a canon to show Your Majesty's benevolence in loving the people like a son!"
After hearing this, not only the civil and military officials below, but also Yang Guang himself rolled his eyes!
Isn't it just that a few civilians have died? You are not loyal, filial, benevolent, and unjust. This label is too high for you.
On the other hand, the old man Su Wei, after hearing this, was too lazy to pay attention to Yu Wenshu, the political hooligan who had added insult to injury. Instead, he only looked mournful, kowtowed and confessed his crime, saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
When the civil and military ministers behind saw this, they also shouted, "Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
There is no way around it. Having just moved, everyone feels that their family resources are much thinner. If we don’t take advantage of the current project to make more money, we may not have the opportunity in the future!
Therefore, more than half of the civil and military personnel of the entire dynasty were involved in this corruption case of embezzling project funds! Once Mr. Su is beheaded, I am afraid that everyone will not be able to make a profit!
"What to do?"
Looking at this formation, Yang Guang felt a little bit in trouble!
Without resorting to thunderbolt tactics, these bastard ministers would really dare to do something that would make them take the blame! But if they were serious about it, they would offend a lot of people!
After thinking for a long time, Yang Guang didn't figure out how to deal with the culprit, old man Su Wei. Then he turned his attention to the bodyguard standing aside, Yuwen Chenglong Xiao Ma Gan'er, "Yuwen Xiao Aiqing, in this matter, you
What do you think?"
"Well, Your Majesty, I also feel that there is something fishy about this matter!" Yuwen Chenglong was distracted, but he didn't hear clearly what Yang Guang said, so he hurriedly said vaguely.
"Okay, I don't want to hear if there is anything fishy, I just want to ask you how to deal with this matter!"
After chattering with his eyes for a moment, Yuwen Chenglong already had an idea and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I feel that this matter should be handled with caution!"
"In my opinion, it is better for your Majesty to first issue an edict and strictly order those corrupt officials to surrender within a time limit and return the money they embezzled, and to comfort the people and appease the public opinion. In this way, your Majesty can put the blame in the past for the time being. Then, your Majesty will send an upright and reliable person to do it.
In order to supervise the censor, we will thoroughly investigate this matter. Anyone found out will be severely punished."
"Yeah!" Yang Guang twirled his beard lightly, nodded with satisfaction, and then said again, "Then who does Yuwen Xiao Aiqing think is worthy of the responsibility of supervising the censor?"
"Uh, well..." After hesitating for a moment, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yang Guang. Seeing that his expression didn't seem to be fake, Yuwen Chenglong continued tentatively, "I heard that Jingzhao Yin Qu Shenggai is a good person.
Fangzheng never shows favoritism, maybe he can do the job!"
"Qu Sheng Gai? It's the Qu Sheng Gai who is rumored to be, 'I would rather eat three measures of mugwort than see Qu Sheng Gai'? Well, I have always heard of this man's uprightness!"….
"However, I seem to have heard that Qu Shenggai and your father seem to be quite contradictory? My dear Yuwen, why did you think of recommending this person?"
The so-called conflict with Yuwen Chenglong's father is actually that when Yuwen Wenhuaji was domineering in the capital, he bumped into Qu Shenggai's hands several times and suffered quite a lot!
From this aspect, Yuwen Chenglong and Qu Shenggai are not a team, and they seem to have a semi-hostile relationship. Therefore, Yang Guang is still a little surprised that Yuwen Chenglong can recommend Qu Shenggai!
So he asked directly.
Faced with Yang Guang's questioning, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er was quite calm. He spoke righteously without any hurry or delay, "Your Majesty asked me who is qualified for this matter, but I didn't ask who is related to my family."
There is a gap. As the saying goes, 'Don't give up hatred when doing things externally, and don't lose relatives when doing things internally'. I just responded to your majesty's questions truthfully!"
"Well, Yuwen Xiao Aiqing, that's great!" Yang Guang nodded, waved his hand in a very leadership-like manner, and said, "In this case, this matter will be handled according to Yu Wen Xiao Aiqing's words!"
"My dear friends, who has anything else to report?"
"Your Majesty, I have something else to report!" This time, it was Yuwen Chenglong and Xiao Ma Gan who spoke again.
"Hmm? My dear Yuwen, I have something to report to you, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it!"
"I plan to openly recruit the Left Guard Army in the capital on the second day of February next year, and select some of the generals and subordinates below the heroic cavalry. This is the specific plan I have drawn up. Your Majesty, please take a look!"
As he said this, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er took out a memorial from his sleeve, held it high and handed it to Yang Guang.
There was already a small Huangmen nearby who quickly stepped forward, took the memorial and put it on Yang Guang's imperial case.
"Didn't I say that the matter regarding the Left Guard Army should be handled by Yuwen Xiao Aiqing on her own? There is no need to ask me for instructions on everything."
Although he said this, Yang Guang still opened the memorial and read it carefully.
Yang Guang read a memorial of several hundred words from beginning to end for about a quarter of an hour. He seemed to have chewed every word in it dozens of times. Then Yang Guang slowly raised his head and said, "This is
I’ve got it right!”
"Yuwen Aiqing, please ask the Ministry of War to draft a recruitment notice according to the meaning of Yuwen Aiqing's memorial and send it to all states and counties across the country. In addition, add another sentence, saying that in this recruitment, the best among them will be
There is a chance to receive me in person! Well, that’s almost it!”
"Old minister, I obey the order!" After hearing this, old man Yu Wenshu hurriedly left work again and accepted the order.
After the two major matters were discussed, the remaining ministers also had some minor or major matters to report, but they basically had nothing to do with Yuwen Xiaomagan'er. Yuwen Chenglong then stood aside and pressed his hands.
Wear a sword and close your eyes as if concentrating.
The day was uneventful, and before noon, Yang Guang left early and went back to the palace to find Mrs. Xuanhua and wait for him to play four splits.
As for Yuwen Xiao Ma Gan'er, after going to court, he sneaked to the Yamen of the Ministry of War, and after some sneaking around with his grandfather Yuwen Shu, he left the Ministry of War with great satisfaction and filled Luoyang with pride.
