(Thank you very much for the generous rewards and monthly ticket support of 'Fengmu Chunjiang', 'Haihu 888', 'csn69', 'Book Friends 55006674', 'Book Friends 38965322'.)
"Your Majesty, why should you pay attention to those preposterous remarks? They are just trying to gain a good reputation for loving the people!" Yu Shiji said loudly from the side with a righteous face.
Pei Shiju glanced at Yu Shiji, not to be outdone, and immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise and holy, what you think is beyond the comprehension of those mediocre people."
Yang Guang was overjoyed when he heard the words of the two favored ministers, but then he remembered something and said to the two with a smile: "Civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty, except for the two of you, everyone else is mediocre. Have you heard that the two of you are traitors?"
Looking at Yang Guang's expression, Pei Shiju and Yu Shiji knew that the emperor was not angry. This sentence was more of a joke. After all, there have been many rumors recently, and many people said that Yang Guang was a fool. In this case, Saying that the two of them are treacherous ministers, not only will Yang Guang not believe it, but will also give birth to feelings of sympathy for each other.
Yu Shiji reacted faster, blushing immediately, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I have devoted myself to sharing your majesty's worries and doing my best for the court. It is simply unreasonable for them to say that I am a treacherous villain."
Pei Shiju was furious, gritted his teeth, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, since someone said that, I am willing to resign to prove my innocence."
Seeing Pei Shiju's determination, Yu Shiji also knelt down and said excitedly: "I also ask you to resign to prove my innocence."
If Wang Junlin was here and watched the performance of the two, he would definitely feel that the acting skills of the two have reached the level of the actor or even surpassed the actor. At least Yang Guang will only feel the two from the performance of the two. faithful and responsible.
Sure enough, Yang Guang lifted the two of them up with a look of emotion on his face, and said softly: "Please stand up, two lovers, don't worry about those mediocre people talking nonsense. In my eyes, the two gentlemen are mine The biggest loyal minister is also the pillar of the court."
"Thank you, Your Majesty..." The two of them were already moved to tears, weeping in unison and thanking each other, while standing up, the eyes of the two met for a moment, but they were staggered again in an instant. Feeling the superb acting skills of the other party, while being jealous of each other in their hearts, they also gave birth to the same kind.
Sense.
Yang Guang didn't know that most of the words the two of them usually said were flattering words, but these words could satisfy Yang Guang's poor imperial dignity, which was seriously traumatized in his heart, and at least make Yang Guang feel relaxed.
After all, from Yang Guang's point of view, he is the Son of Heaven, the Supreme Ninety-Five, and the Lord of the World. Regardless of whether they are loyal ministers or treacherous ministers with Pei Shiju, at least Yang Guang feels the "treatment" of the Ninety-Five Supremes from the two of them, because everything Yang Guang said and the decisions he made was right in their mouths. is wise.
"Hmph, I don't bother to read these memorials opposing the conquest of Goguryeo. You two seal these memorials and send them back without approval!" Yang Guang casually pushed these memorials aside with a look of anger. In fact, they are also human beings, especially those who just fell from a high place a year ago, and the wounds in their hearts have not healed. They need the affirmation of others. These people all oppose his conquest of Goguryeo. Yang Guang was extremely disgusted and angry.
"Your Majesty is wise, it is indeed a waste of time for Your Majesty to read these memorials." Yu Shiji immediately said with a righteous face.
Pei Shiju said: "Your Majesty, I have picked out the memorials against your majesty. Those on the right are not against the conquest of Goguryeo."
Yang Guang's complexion improved a lot, and he said: "The two lovers both talked about what was said in these memorials."
Pei Shiju's memory is very good, and he immediately said: "The generals of the twelve prefectures asked to play and took the initiative to fight, saying that your majesty is the supreme emperor and needs to be in the capital of the Central Plains, while Goguryeo is just a small country and does not need your majesty's personal conquest. If they lead their troops, they can beat Goguryeo to nothing!"
"Hmph, the morale of the twelve generals is commendable, but I have a reason why I have to go, but they can't understand it." Yang Guang said expressionlessly, "Is there any memorial?"
This time Yu Shiji said first: "Your Majesty, King Qin An sent a memorial, saying that the navy is ready to sail, and Goguryeo's Annan County has made preparations before the battle, and can fight to Pyongyang again for Your Majesty at any time."
Yang Guang nodded, but did not speak. Yu Wenshu and his son were poisoned to death by Wang Junlin, which made him quite displeased, and Wang Junlin forcibly set up the Far East Army General Manager's Office, although he was the most
At the beginning, he agreed, but after all, the imperial documents and his official order were not issued, which made him extremely annoyed. If it were someone else, if he could kill someone, he would definitely kill him. Even if Wang Junlin recently wiped out the Gaojibo rebels in Qinghe County, it only made him feel a little better about Wang Junlin.
Pei Shiju and Yu Shiju knew Yang Guang's current attitude towards Wang Junlin very well, so they didn't dare to say more. Pei Shiju immediately continued: "Your Majesty, General Zhang Xutuo has defeated the three major bandits in Henan and wiped out more than 20,000 rebels. General Zhang led an army to follow and kill the remnants led by the bandit leader Wang Bo. However, Zhang Xutuo also suggested that so many anti-bandits and bandits were caused by the inaction of local officials, especially because they did not care about the livelihood of the people. He hopes His Majesty can send virtuous ministers to inspect the place and help the victims..."
"Apart from Wang Junlin, Zhang Xutuo is the one who is the most effective in destroying the rebels, but he is a general, but he manages civil affairs!" Yang Guang shook his head and interrupted Pei Shiju's report, but he paused, He sighed and said, "I also want to show compassion to the common people, but I gave the common people food to eat. Where did the millions of troops who conquered Goguryeo need the food and grass to come from? Could it be that in his opinion, my great cause of conquering Goguryeo is not as important as those untouchables?"
Yang Guang took these words for granted, because the fate of the people has always been just a number in his eyes.
But Yu Shiji immediately said with admiration: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Pei Shiju also praised repeatedly: "Your Majesty has a far-sighted view, and what he thinks about is the great events that have been passed down through the ages. How can a military official like Zhang Xutuo can imagine it."
Yang Guang was very satisfied with what the two said, nodded his head, and said: "But this Zhang Xutuo always wins the battle, and the one who should be rewarded should still be rewarded."
"And those prefects and magistrates of various counties, General Ying Yanglang and Du Wei are really becoming more and more useless. They even wrote letters to me one after another, blowing up the strength and force of those rebels and bandits into the sky, saying that The non-fu soldiers can't destroy it, and the result! I heard that Wang Junlin sent 8,000 county soldiers, and just sent a young general to destroy the helpless Gaojibo rebels in Qinghe County, and Zhang Xutuo even more It is for me to wipe out the rebels in the whole of Henan, and it seems that these civil and military officials in these counties are too incompetent."
