Chapter 79 Chess pieces that are no longer controllable
"The eyes of the officials of Woniuling, Ye Xiaotian, pay homage to Lord Futai!" A full of energy sings attracted the attention of all the yamen runners in the hall.
"Liuge? There has never been such a small official coming to pay homage to this Futai Yamen. This is a close minister of the emperor who is half a head short in front of him!"
Ye Xiaotian came in, his little breasts were erect, looking as if he was not ashamed of, but rather proud. When he saw Ye Mengxiong sitting high, he quickly took three steps, lifted his robe and knelt down to worship.
The two are now at a very different level. Ye Mengxiong did not meet in the study, but chose to be in the court. Ye Xiaotian had no choice but to worship. However, although his worship was not slow, he had to freeze every move, just like singing an opera on stage, posing in a constant shape, waiting for the audience to whistle, applaud, throwing a copper coin or something.
Seeing that this slut boy was reluctant to kneel down, Ye Mengxiong couldn't help but smile. What a person he was, how could he care about the red tape, and immediately said, "Ye Li's eyes are exempt from courtesy!"
Ye Xiaotian held the robe with both hands, and as soon as his knees were bent down, he suddenly straightened up again: "Thank you, Lord!"
Ye Mengxiong stroked his gray beard, glanced at him and said, "Sit up!"
Hua Qingfeng, who was standing at the head of the desk, was slightly shocked and turned his head to look at Ye Mengxiong. Ye Mengxiong was rubbing his beard and smiling at Ye Xiaotian. From the side, he could only see the soft lines exposed on his always square and serious face, and the fine crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, all slightly upturned.
Hua Qingfeng suddenly realized that meeting with the Futai Grand Master was not to give Ye Xiaotian a warning, but to support him and promote him. Although meeting with the small study room would certainly seem close, but meeting with the small study room could be friends with equal status, close subordinates, or lackeys under the disciples.
Lord Futai is telling everyone that in his eyes, this little official in Woniu Mountain already has a very high status and can at least be on par with the Eight Vajras. He is indeed qualified to be on par with the Eight Vajras. The two of the Eight Vajras have fallen into his hands.
This incident made everyone in danger of the other six Vajras, and the territory of these six Vajras is not bound by Ye Xiaotian's power. It is not surprising that this human-eating tiger will endanger them. But Ye Xiaotian set an example for other toasts:
Many toasts who have been developing for many years and whose strength is no less than the Eight Great Vajras or even more than the Eight Great Vajras suddenly discovered that the Eight Great Vajras who have always been above them are just like this, and their decay is vulnerable. So they are ready to move.
Among them, only the Xia family in Hongfeng Lake is better. It is not because the Xia family has a large population, but because the Xia family's territory is too close to Guiyang, and its production and lifestyle are the most thorough, so the impact is the least, especially the Xia family and An family are very close.
Su Xuntian went to bring a chair. Ye Xiaotian thanked him. Then he sat down calmly, saw Hua Qingfeng's complicated gaze, and smiled and nodded at him.
Hua Qingfeng sighed secretly, and the jealousy in his heart was like a broken leaf swept up by the autumn wind, blowing out of sight. Jealousy must be similar to each other to arise. When a person has developed to a point where you are out of reach, it cannot even arise with jealousy.
When Ye Xiaotian first arrived in Guiyang, he was just a scholar. He was a completely slap in the role of playing soybeans. If he hadn't dueled with Ge Long in Huaxi and then mocked Cui Daru and the scholars in Qiyunting, who would have known his existence?
Ye Xiaotian went to Guiyang and started a fierce battle, killing ghosts and gods howling, and the children stopped crying, but the reputation became famous. However, Zhan Cao, Zhang and Yang's four families were knocking on the yamen in white, forcing the new Futai to follow the public's wishes and escort him to the capital for trial. It can be said that he was up and down.
This third time, Ye Xiaotian became the lowest-class official in the local officials, but his power was quietly revealed. Although he was not as domineering as the last time, he had become a Vajra-level figure.
Now that there is a master Futai who has created momentum for him, how can Hua Qingfeng still be obsessed with his identity as a staff member of Futai? Ye Xiaotian had not taken action yet, but he only used his momentum to beat him back to his original form and became a "Ninja Turtle" again.
Since Ye Mengxiong publicly summoned Ye Xiaotian just to help him create momentum, the content of the talk was of course upright and high-sounding. The two of them answered one-on-one and talked nonsense for a long time. Ye Mengxiong then happily announced: Move to the small study room and have a chat with Ye Limu again.
Once the door of the study was closed, all the idle people were isolated from the outside, and Ye Mengxiong's hypocritical appearance disappeared completely. Ye Xiaotian no longer looked respectful and cautious.
Without waiting for Ye Mengxiong to be polite, he took a cup of fragrant tea from the tea table with a faint mist, took a sip, and said to Ye Mengxiong with a smile: "My old man, Xiaotian is very grateful for his efforts to support Xiaotian in the store today."
Ye Mengxiong was stunned for a moment before he realized that the "old man of my family" he said was referring to him. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was the first time he had seen such a young man like this in his years as an official. However, he knew very well what Ye Xiaotian had happened in the capital. In front of the emperor, this guy looked generous, so how could Ye Mengxiong expect him to follow the rules in front of him?
Ye Mengxiong also took a sip of tea and said to Ye Xiaotian: "You are doing well in Tongren. I hope you can consolidate your current situation, continue to move westward, gradually penetrate, and block Yang Yinglong's eastward road."
The hawks only told Ye Xiaotian that Yang Yinglong had ill-behavior. Before his rebellion was revealed, the court could not mobilize others and punish him. Therefore, he hoped to curb his ambitions through blockade and suppression, and turned a mitian bell into invisible fire, but did not tell Ye Xiaotian and the others what he really intended: he had not prepared enough, so he started in advance. Therefore, this is the case.
Ye Xiaotian put down the teacup and said, "I'm afraid the Tong family will be unhappy when they continue to move east. In addition, the adults really believe that locking Yang Yinglong's four-way door will eliminate his ambitions and be content with his own self-reliance? Instead of forcing him to jump over the wall and take risks?"
Ye Mengxiong gently wiped the tea, lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Yang Yinglong is not a fool. He should still have the vision of judging the situation. Once things cannot be done, I believe that his only choice is to stop. As long as he cannot rebel in his lifetime, his descendants may not have such ambition and courage as he will. Times change, and great disasters will be invisible, and there will be no great merit."
Ye Xiaotian shook his head and crossed his legs: "Xiaotian doesn't think so. The adults do this, in fact, leave hidden dangers for the future. Since they understand that he has the opposite intention, it is better to take the initiative to attack. If they can't catch his handle and are inconvenient and punish him without being taught, they should tempt him to take the initiative, so that they can master the initiative. The sewing and repairing is not a solution."
Ye Mengxiong heard this and felt aroused. Ye Xiaotian’s thoughts actually coincided with them. If Ye Xiaotian could understand their overall plan, he would definitely be able to cooperate better with them, so what would be better...
This idea just came to my mind and was calmly dispelled by Ye Mengxiong. Ye Xiaotian is also a local official now. He encouraged the court to attack Yang Yinglong, obviously trying to take advantage of the chaos to annex and expand, gain a larger territory, and gain greater power. This purpose is contrary to the court.
The Eagle Party’s idea was to force Yang Yinglong to raise an army and stir up the Guizhou rebellion. The court took the opportunity to send troops. Not only did it occupy Bozhou in one fell swoop, but it also took advantage of the opportunity of the great energy of the chieftains to solve the issue of Guizhou once and for all, and take it directly into the hands of the court. The two goals are not unified, so how can they cooperate in close cooperation?
Ye Mengxiong took a deep breath and said, "With the sword and war, the first thing that is to bear is the innocent people! They are all people of the court, how can Your Majesty bear it? Your pattern must be enlarged."
Ye Mengxiong twisted his beard and thought for a while, saying, "You can live in Guiyang. What should I do next? I will discuss with you in detail. Nowadays, the layout of Tongren and Shiqian governments needs to be waited for several families of Zhan Zhang Yangtong to arrive before it can be clarified, otherwise there will be future problems."
Ye Mengxiong pondered for a moment and said, "In addition, the judicial power of Shiqian Prefecture is submitted to the Criminal Department and the distributor is directly sent to the responsible person. It is great! However, you still need to maintain this matter with all your strength, otherwise it will be a rootless tree, with only form, and the judicial power cannot be collected."
Ye Xiaotian stood up and said, "Okay! That Xiaotian will stay in Guiyang and wait for further instructions from the Lord."
Ye Mengxiong nodded and said, "You go! If you have time, you might as well visit Mr. An. His attitude is of great importance!"
...
Even if Ye Mengxiong didn't say it, Ye Xiaotian would go to see An Guowei. As the head of the four major families of An Song Tianyang, An Guowei's actual control in Guizhou is still above Ye Mengxiong, the chief official. Ye Xiaotian didn't have much contact with him, but every time he left a deep impression on him.
On the banks of the Nanming River, when he was taking the exam for the first time, he thought that Mr. An was an elder of Xia Yingying's clan. The second time he was in Tongren, he received a handwritten letter from Mr. An who supported him to lead his people out and turned into a local official.
The An family has a marriage relationship with the Zhan family, but in the face of Ye Xiaotian's gradual growth and even his threat to the Zhan family, Old Master An has never expressed anything. This chieftain seems to be really in charge, smiling at the changes in the wind and clouds, and has no intention of interfering at all.
Is this true?
If so, why would he write a handwritten letter to mention Ye Xiaotian for the sake of his newfound glory? Perhaps, this is what Ye Mengxiong mentioned. When he reached the position of Mr. An, his every move and every thought could no longer be determined based on his personal likes and dislikes and personal feelings.
He stood at a higher place, taking the territory as the foreground and the tribe as the latitude. Every force walking in it was a chess piece in his hand, and he had this qualification. Ye Xiaotian is now a chess piece on this chessboard, regardless of whether he wanted it or not.
However, although it is not something that Ye Xiaotian can decide whether to make a chess piece or not. No one can control him, so he is qualified to meet this national player. One day he will also jump out of the chessboard and turn into a chess player holding his chess piece!
