Lu Qi went to find Guo Ziyi. In addition to taking advantage of Guo Ziyi's prestige, he also hoped to reach an agreement with the old faction of Shuofang, so as to facilitate Cui Ning to break the situation in the north.

"Lu Qi is ugly and cruel. Whether it is for the overall situation or for personal gain, I might as well agree to him." So Guo Ziyi agreed and wrote to Du Xiquan, Dai Xiuyan and others, asking them not to make trouble for their superior Cui Ning.

Du Xiquan and Dai Xiuyan were both Guo’s old subordinates. After receiving the letter from Shangfu, they all bowed and worshiped each other, and even submitted a report to the emperor, saying, “The Jiedushi had just set up a retreat when the Jiedushi was not in the town. Now the Grand Governor Cui has left the northern part of the town, so it is not appropriate to set up a retreat again.”

After Du and Dai Xian submitted their resignation, Zhang Guangsheng and Li Jianhui were embarrassed and hesitated and sent their resignation to him.

The emperor also agreed, and the positions of the governors and military envoys of the state remained unchanged, and the three "remaining queens" were abolished, and from then on, the Beidi Town was handed over to Cui Ning for full control.

Lu Qi won the battle at the beginning, and then he had many contacts with Jingzhao Yin Yan Ying, and the two seemed to be forming an alliance.

Yan Ying also started to become enemies with Yang Yan due to disputes over Mintun and subsequently false accusations.

Yang Yan collapsed in his house, calculating a bloody account:

It took him less than a year to be the prime minister when he returned to the court. From the initial smooth sailing to the current waste of time, it really seemed like a dream.

He implemented the two tax law, hoping to use this to replace his own people with his wealth, but he made somersaults with Chen Shaoyou, Huainan and Li Zhengji, Ziqing;

He used Du Feng's entry into the Chongwenguan as bait, and wanted to lure Liu Yan's party and annihilate it with his backhand, but Liu Yan and Linghu Yi were not fooled and let him lose his life;

He asked for financial resources to enter the Zuozangku, and dismissed the abolition of the Duzhi and the second envoy of fortune. He wanted to arouse Liu Yan's resistance and take the opportunity to kill him with the emperor's hand, but Liu Yan took the initiative to give up all his rights. Now he ran to Guiguan as a military envoy, which made him fail;

He originally wanted to recommend his own people as the censor and to dictate the government, but the emperor led Lu Qi to restrain himself everywhere;

He excluded Cui Ning and Zhu Li, but now it seems that it has completely reversed. Now Cui Ning is in the northern border alone, Zhu Li governs the three towns of Longyou, Fengxiang and Jingyuan, and has greater power and reputation than before.

Why? Why!

Yang Yan was in a messy mood. He felt as if he had two black hands in the dark, as if he had insight into everything, and could always guess his own layout, and easily destroy his blood.

"Can it be, is it really him..." Yang Yan lay on the rope bed, and his fingers that were originally covering his eyes slowly slid down.

At this time, he opened his eyes and saw the old slave He Bo standing behind the curtain.

Bo He served his family for decades, and since his father Yang Boshi was the most trusted person in the family.

Previously, Yang Yan was demoted to Sima of Daozhou. When Gao Yue came to see him off, the one who led the horse to Gao Yue when he returned was He Bo.

Therefore, when he saw Uncle He, Yang Yan naturally thought of Gao Yue.

"Mr...." said He Bo.

Yang Yan agreed and got up from the rope bed and asked Uncle He if there was anything wrong.

Uncle He hung his hands, as if he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, but he finally said it, "Mr. Mansion must be careful. Previously, Shaofujun (Yang Hongye) had a big banquet at home almost every day, which was so conspicuous!"

When Yang Yan heard this, he was shocked. His energy was always in the Political Affairs Hall and he almost ignored his family.

Soon Yang Yan's awakening turned to anger and clenched his fists tightly, "This guy!" He was determined to teach his wife and children a lesson immediately.

Then He Bo whispered: "I have something else to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Oh, Mr. He said it's okay."

"You are always by your side as a child. You know that you sometimes hold grudges too much, but you don't remember your kindness. If you do this, you will probably make too many enemies."

Hearing Uncle He's words, Yang Yan felt unhappy.

But He Bo then counted - he rated three people.

Cui Qing, Huo Zhongtang, and Gao Yue.

Yang Yan's anger surged up, and he wanted to explain to He Bo carefully, but Cui Qing and Huo Zhongtang did not say anything at all, but only Gao Yue, "I recommended Li Zhou because Gao Yue's age and qualifications are not in line with his or her age."

"But Gao Yue is Cui Ning's son-in-law! The opportunity to join forces with Cui Ning was gone from the Fujun."

"Uncle He likes Gao Sanlang very much?"

"No, it's just that I once led Gao Sanlang to the next horse. That time, Sanlang passed by Changlepo Yuetang and first met the fifth little lady of Cui Ning's family. Now he is married. Isn't that fate? Gao Sanlang is definitely not an ordinary young man, so the lord of the mansion should not be taken lightly."

This made Yang Yan even more angry, but He Bo said again: "Do you still remember how you treated Shenwu Ling Li Dajian when you were young?"

When Yang Yan heard this, he couldn't help but remember the past. It was during the second year of Emperor Suzong's destiny (757). He was still studying in Hexi. A rebellion had just broken out in Hexi. The former Jiedu governor was killed. After the rebellion was put down, the court sent Du Hongjian, the Minister of War, to Hexi as the new Jiedu governor. Because Du Hongjian had long admired his literary name, he directly hired him as the chief secretary of the shogunate.

Yang Yan was in power and did what he did was the same as now. Because Li Dajian, the magistrate of Shenwu County, Liangzhou, had insulted him because he was drunk, Yang Yan called Li Dajian and asked him to tie Li against him and beat him with an iron rod for two hundred times. Li Dajian was bleeding all over the ground, lying on the ground, curled up and moaning - Yang Yan could clearly remember his reaction at that time, how happy, how happy!

"Yong Slave, now that my teeth are gone, can you scold me again?" Yang Yan smiled, and did not forget to step on Li Dajian, who was half dead with his boots.

Afterwards, Du Hongjian covered up Yang Yan and did not care about this outrageous behavior of retaliating against his colleagues.

The reward Du received was the merit monument written by Yang Yan, who was hand-written by the merit monument of "The Stele of Du Gong, the Hexi Jiedu," when he left Hexi and went to Jingnan as the Jiedu governor, which praised Du:

"When it comes, the hills are as if they are gone, the wind and rain can be seen."

More than twenty years have passed, and since the moment the iron rod hit Li Dajian's face, the inner demon took root in Yang Yan's body and never left.

At this time, he would not listen to Uncle He's words, but this does not mean that he does not take Gao Yue seriously.

He needs to use Xue Yaoying as an intermediary, and Yu Hongshao Xiaoting has another talk with Gao Yue, hoping to shake hands with this young man and Cui Ning for the second time. Now he has to suppress the unstoppable Lu Qi - he can promise Gao Yue some benefits, and this time he will really give him.

As for Uncle He, he has been in my family for so many years and actually treats his master like this. When will he find a mistake and ask his wife to send him away?

Three days later, Zhihui, sent by Master Xue Lian, stood in front of the aconitum gate of Cui Mansion in Shengpingfang. Gao Yue stood on the steps and said to Zhihui very politely and loudly:

"I am a minister of the northern part of Taishan, and I am a senior citizen living in the capital and serving as the censor in the palace. I cannot have a secret meeting with the deacons in the court."

After saying that, Gao Yue nodded to Zhihui, and everything was silent, and then he entered the door.

The aconite gate slowly closed, which represented Gao Yue's flat rejection of Yang Yan.
Chapter completed!
