Chapter 28 Marriage Letter
"The king is getting more and more distant, and I don't know when the younger brother may be transferred."
The two brothers and brothers stepped back from the left and right in the study. Shen Gongbao sighed slightly, "I am the prime minister, and you hold the axe and halberd again, he is not at ease."
"I only sigh that he believed in the villain's slander." Yang Jian sneered: "There are demons dancing in the morning, and I don't want to keep me. You call me here today, isn't this the only thing?"
The two brothers, one is the Liangzhu who ruled in court, and the other is the general of Diqiu, a civil and military officer, one inside and one outside. If you talk about power, you may only be able to compare with Taishi Wen Zhong. Emperor Yi was at the time and was not afraid of it. However, Emperor Xin is becoming more and more stupid. The villains in the court are making trouble and want to seize power. Shen Gongbao had already noticed it. Either the next court meeting or next time, the left and right are close to him, and he must transfer Yang Jian away and divide the power of the two brothers.
Shen Gongbao shook his head slightly: "This is a small matter. You and I are monks, and the power of the mortal world is nothing but false, in the end. I have been in power for nearly twenty years. If the king is wise, I will admit it. I am just becoming more and more stupid and exhausted. But I don't want to work hard for many years and turn it into ashes, and I feel unwilling. If the king wants to issue an edict, either ask you to send troops to Beihai to help Wen Taishi. Or ask you to go to Dongyi to stabilize the local situation."
"What do you think?"
Yang Jian nodded as he heard this. He did not make any mistakes, and Emperor Xin wanted to transfer him from his current position, so he needed a reason. The seventy-two princes in the Beihai rebelled, and it was heard that the Grand Master had led the troops to conquer for several years and had not yet decided. This is a good reason. In addition, the Marquis of Dongbo Jiang Huanchu wrote a letter to Emperor Xin not long ago, saying that the Dongyi was unstable, which is also a reason.
Shen Gongbao said: "I have heard of the Taishi in Beihai. Although the rebellion has not been decided, it is not serious. Dongyi has Dongbohou, but although it is unstable, with Dongbohou's ability, I have no worries for the time being. I want to bring you to Sanshan Pass. Sanshan Pass guards the middle of Shenzhou, the important road in the west, Ganzhou in the northwest, and Xiqi in the southwest. The younger brother is in Sanshan Pass. One can guard the important military towns, and the other can guard Shencheng in Ganzhou, which makes me worry-free."
Speaking of this, he paused and looked worried: "Last year, the rumors were rumored that Fengming Qishan were very noisy. Although it was a rumor, the wind might not be coming. Although the King of Xibo had been jailed in Chaoge by the king,..."
"My junior brother is worried about Xiqi?"
After hearing this, Yang Jian couldn't help but think carefully, and after a moment, he said, "It's a bit of a truth. Over the years, Xiqi has developed very rapidly and has repeatedly sent people to Chaoge to practice the art of talismans and Taoist patterns. Although there was a junior brother in front of him, only the princes everywhere in the area had such a vision. I know the heart of my junior brother, and I will not rebel against Shang, but Xibo may have made up his mind. The princes in one place have such ambitions and value the art of talismans and Taoist patterns as comparable to the previous kings. As expected, the ambitions are far-reaching."
He pondered, and after a moment he said, "It seems that Sanshan Pass must be suppressed. Otherwise, once Xiqi attacks and captures Sanshan Pass, he will be flat after the pass, and the soldiers can reach Chaoge directly. However, his junior brother, the general of Sanshan Pass is Deng Jiugong, who has been in charge of Sanshan Pass for more than 30 years and has a great prestige. I am afraid he will not give up when I go?"
Shen Gongbao laughed.
Yang Jian was laughing for no reason.
I heard Shen Gongbao say, "The younger brother is also a sensible person. I have talked about the hearts of Xibo and Bi Gan and Shang Rong for a long time. This person is either a great wise man or a great traitor. But his appearance as a wise marquis is without flaws and makes people difficult to attack. Even if the king is so stupid, he will only imprison him without killing him. But the more he does this, the more I can determine his ambitions. However, after all, Xiqi is a corner of the land, as long as he can defend the Sanshan Pass and let him jump around, he will not have to think that it will ruin my 20 years of hard work."
He also said: "As for the younger brother who is worried about Deng Jiugong, there is no need. He is too late to welcome you, so why would he not want to?"
Yang Jian said: "Why did your junior brother say this?"
Shen Gongbao laughed and took out a silk book from his sleeve and handed it to Yang Jian: "Young brother will know at a glance."
Yang Jian took the silk book in confusion, opened it and saw that he was stunned: "Junior brother, you..."
He pointed at Shen Gongbao, and was angry and embarrassed.
Shen Gongbao smiled and said, "Do you still remember what your master said?"
Yang Jian was slightly stunned, then suddenly realized, but said annoyedly: "Even so, how can you make the decision with me privately?"
"Master once said: If you don't marry and have children, you will never be able to see him." Shen Gongbao was angry at Yang Jian and said with a smile: "Thinking about it, it has been more than ten years. Over the years, Chaoge's noble ladies have introduced you to you, but none of them have been successful. However, if this time fails, it will be successful. You think that many noble ladies are not monks and are not very suitable, but Deng Chanyu, the daughter of Deng Jiugong, is a monk."
Seeing that Yang Jian was about to refute, Shen Gongbao quickly reached out to stop him: "Listen to me. Deng Chanyu's beauty is also a monk. Deng Jiugong is quite satisfied with you, senior brother, so he has this marriage letter. But it depends on your own intention. If you go to Sanshan Pass, if you don't get along well with Deng Chanyu, you will give up. If you come here, you will hand over the marriage letter to Deng Jiugong and choose a date to get married."
He also said: "You must not be too indifferent to the major events in life here. If you are undecided for a while, don't take out the wedding book. If you really don't want to, even if you secretly ruin the wedding book, don't take it out and slap Deng Jiugong in the face. I and Deng Jiugong both know this, and you can know it in your heart, senior brother."
Yang Jian's heart was also a little ups and downs about this matter.
When he returned from Biyou Palace, he was in Chaoge. His master said that he would not go to see him if he didn't marry or have children. He had never thought about it over the years. But there was indeed no suitable one. Chaoge was everywhere, with countless noble girls, and there were many beautiful people. But he was just dissatisfied, so what if he did?
Shen Gongbao also felt a lot of worry about this.
Yang Jian has never seen Deng Chanyu, the daughter of Deng Jiugong, but since he even got the marriage letter, it means that Shen Gongbao is at least very satisfied. Shen Gongbao, the junior brother, will never harm him.
After changing his mind, he calmed down his emotions, Yang Jian said, "Well, I'll see you first."
So I put away my wedding book and didn't mention it.
Shen Gongbao said, "Young brother is ready. If you only have half a month of work, you will have a result. If I can't convince the king to transfer you to Sanshan Pass, you will hang your seal and resign. You will go to Sanshan Pass. But my junior brother's selfishness will affect my senior brother."
Yang Jian waved his hand indifferently: "I have done this general in a bad mood. Now Chaoge is full of monsters and monsters, and I have a desire to leave. You can see if you arrange it."
Not long after a few days, Emperor Xin issued an edict to demote Yang Jian. On the grounds that Yang Jian did not respect the law and killed the nobles' children alone, he finally followed Shen Gongbao's wishes and demoted him to the deputy general of Sanshan Pass, and set off today to take office.
Shen Gongbao, Bi Gan, Shang Rong and others escorted Yang Jian, Lu Li and Yin to the outskirts of the city.
