Chapter 1079 The Prince Supervises the Country
After a crazy night, Gao Yang was still not tired at dawn the next day.
Last night's violent venting was like a rejuvenating medicine for him, which made his tired and uncomfortable physical and mental state improve, his energy became strong again, and many things that had been stymied in his heart suddenly became clear to him. .
Perhaps it was not just the violent venting that made him improve, but also a long-lost feeling of being challenged that inspired the potential in his body and made him bold and decisive again.
After a simple breakfast in the early morning, while his energy was still high, Gao Yang first sent an order to the south to Jiexiu to temporarily place Baishui Prince Mo Chenxiang under house arrest.
He had a fit last night and brutally killed the son of Hou Mo, Prime Minister Chen, and several noble disciples, not only because his self-esteem was frustrated, but also because he needed an opportunity to warn Jinyang nobles, and at this time of war, the methods should not be too violent, which happened to be Several people had been bumped into with conclusive evidence of guilt, and they could only blame themselves for their misfortune.
Before Prime Minister Hou Mo and Chen were defeated, Queshu Valley and Jiexiu City were plundered by thieves. He did not punish them severely, which was considered to be a liberal approach. When encountering such a thing again, it is best for him to think about it, but not to think about it. If that were the case, the soldiers would be able to live until they were nearly seventy years old and live a glorious life, and there would be nothing to complain about.
Gao Yang didn't pay too much attention to this trivial matter. After a brief explanation, he summoned Gao Rui, Prince of Zhao County, to Jinyang Palace for an audience.
Not long after, Gao Rui arrived at Jinyang Palace. He had also heard about what happened here last night. He was quite uneasy about the emperor summoning him so early in the morning. He walked all the way to the palace without any delay.
When Gao Yang saw Gao Rui, he looked kind. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "My lord, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down quickly. I summoned someone directly without notifying you. Did you disturb your case?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! My duty is to serve the emperor, what else can I do besides that?"
Gao Rui quickly thanked him again, then slowly stood up and walked to the side seat to sit down.
Gao Yang still looked at Gao Rui with a smile, and after a moment he sighed and said: "I still remember that Taizu once lamented when he was still alive in the past, that this son's pure love and filial piety must be eradicated, and the people in the household are also sad about it. The ancestor's words are still in my ears, so People think deeply, it is difficult to recover the dead, and before you know it, the king is already Angzang’s husband!”
Gao Rui was stunned again after hearing this. He was so praised by the emperor that he didn't know how to respond for a moment. He could only raise his hand to gently wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes to show his respect for the deceased.
Gao Yang summoned his cousin into the palace, naturally not to recall the past. After a moment of emotion, he said: "The Qiang thieves are invading the border, and there are many disadvantages to the frontline war. I believe the king also knows about this?"
After hearing the words, Gao Rui nodded quickly, then lowered his head and said: "The east is strong and the west is weak, and the trend has been established for a long time. The reason why the war is not going well today is all due to the deception of the Qiang thieves, but the deceitful plan is ultimately evil, the Supreme Being There is no need to worry about this. Our country has wise kings, wise ministers, and loyal soldiers. As long as we can stabilize the front line and prevent the enemy from taking advantage of it again, it is not difficult to defeat the enemy and relieve the enemy!"
"Today I summoned the king to the palace to do exactly this. Although calmness and tranquility can control thieves, the state affairs are busy and we cannot remain stagnant. Before defeating the thieves, I need to stay in Jinyang and stabilize the palace. It is inevitable for the capital to Too tired to inspect."
When Gao Yang said this, he paused for a moment, then looked at Gao Rui and said: "The prince's right path is gradually becoming clear, but if really big things are entrusted, there is still a lack of enthusiasm, and a loyal, steady, honest and trustworthy person is still needed. Minister assists. We are currently fighting against the Qiang thieves. The Li family in Longxi has always had a close relationship with famous families in Shandong. As for the people in the clan, it is difficult for the ministers to trust them..."
When Gao Rui heard this, his ears immediately pricked up, his expression became more serious, and his breathing stopped slightly.
"Although there are many disciples in our sect, there are still a few who are young and do not do things well. Those who are older and can be called kind are also scarce. I am afraid that not many people are willing to take good care of the young disciple Youzi until he grows up... …”
Gao Yang first sighed, not hiding his suspicion of his brother in his words. After hearing this, Gao Rui hurriedly turned over and worshiped: "I am fortunate to be born in the same lineage as your Majesty and all the kings. I have strong flesh and blood, and it is difficult to do anything." Give up. King Changshan and others are of the same species as your Majesty's compatriots, and they are as close as one body..."
Before Gao Rui could finish speaking, Gao Yang waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to say any more, and then said in a deep voice: "I have already understood how human feelings are, and I don't need to bother the king to explain them. I called you here today because I want to I have appointed you to return to the court to assist the prince in supervising the affairs of the country. Will the king be willing to go?"
When talking about this, Gao Yang couldn't help but feel helpless and even shy. He has been on the throne for many years, and he naturally has his own strategies for dealing with people and matters. However, at this time of crisis, he discovered that some of the personnel management he had done in the past could not be trusted.
Now the one who is raising troops to invade is Li Boshan, a Qiang thief who was born in the Li family of Longxi. Just look at how many people from the Northern Qi Dynasty left and went to seek refuge. It can be seen that no matter how preferential treatment these famous families in Guandong give to people with the same background as themselves, they still have higher expectations for people with the same background as themselves. A great sense of identity. Even if some people in the country still have no intention of leaving, they are just retaining people because of the power and wealth here, rather than being truly loyal to the country of Qi.
Including Prime Minister Yang Min, whom Gao Yang has relied on for many years. Although Gao Yang does not doubt that Yang Min will betray him, in such a situation, it is destined to be difficult for others to trust Yang Min.
Soon after Gao Yang left the capital, Yang Min was easily ignored by King Changshan and others. There was such a reason. Even Gao Yang was helpless about this, because if he really wanted to support Yang Min unreservedly, the topic would undoubtedly intensify to the conflict between Xianbei and Han, and many disputes would arise.
As for my brothers, it is even more difficult to describe. Gao Yang was a person who was relatively indifferent to family ties. When he was a teenager, he was even looked down upon by his family members. Although he also appointed relatives after usurping the country and establishing his own country, it was mainly due to political considerations, and there was very little factor based on family ties.
Facts have also proved that his brothers are just a bunch of ignorant wolves. Now that powerful enemies are approaching and the country is frustrated, he has no skills in Jinyang. Gao Yan and other close brothers can no longer help but stir up trouble in Yedu. , and even confidants like Gao Dezheng got involved. The personnel disputes in Yedu touched Gao Yang even more than the defeat on the battlefield!
Ever since he received the Yedu Newspaper yesterday, he had been feeling sleepy. It was only after some venting that he regained his energy and sorted out an idea again.
The most serious problem at the moment is naturally the internal problem. The first is that Gao Yan and others can no longer be allowed to collude in Yedu. But at the moment, Yang Min is somewhat isolated in Yedu. Cui Xian and others may not be trustworthy, and it is not suitable for him to move back to Yedu before the foreign enemies are resolved. And in order to maintain internal stability, we cannot directly target close relatives such as Gao Yan.
Under such a situation, the only choice was to bring out his son Gao Yin first, and exercise the power of supervising the country in the name of the prince, breaking the situation where King Changshan controlled the military and political affairs of Yedu. At the same time, Gao Rui and other clan members who were not in the same class as Gao Yan and others were selected to use the prince's reputation and connections to directly arrange a group of court officials around the prince. This was also a personnel preparation for the prince's future succession to power.
After Gao Rui heard this, he hurriedly paused and bowed his head again: "How lucky is it that I have been given such an important position by the Supreme Being! Only with sincerity, I will assist the prince in supervising the affairs of the country, and wait for the saint to defeat the enemy and return in triumph!"
Hearing Gao Rui's statement, Gao Yang also nodded with satisfaction. He has his own evaluation of people and things. In his opinion, this cousin Gao Rui is at least slightly higher in moral integrity than his brothers. of.
However, although Gao Rui has a good temperament, it is a pity that he is still a little younger and does not have the absolute qualifications and authority to overwhelm the masses among the clans. Therefore, in addition to Gao Rui, Gao Yang also arranged for the leading general who came to Jinyang and the King of Ping Qin, Gao Guiyan, to return to Yedu. There were two people in this clan who were responsible for civil and military affairs, plus Yang Min and other officials and officials. In response, it would not be difficult for the prince to supervise the country until he has taken care of the current war and awaits his return.
As for Yang Min's report about secret communication between King Changshan and Gao Dezheng and others, Gao Yang does not intend to pursue it in depth at the moment. At the moment, he is not in control of the situation in Yedu. If this matter is further investigated, it will definitely cause shock to the government and the opposition in Yedu, which will be even more detrimental to the current war. Although Gao Yang is tyrannical and capricious, he can still maintain control in the face of real events.
As for Gao Yan's proposal to appoint Gao Dezheng as the governor of Jizhou, it was naturally rejected by Gao Yang. He only transferred Gao Dezheng from Youpuse to Zuopushe, and Cui Siam, the original Zuopushe, was added to the third division of Yitong.
At the same time, Heyang Xingtai Hu Luguang was also dismissed from his post and was recalled to Jinyang for service. Yao Nanzong, the governor of Huaizhou, also served as Heyang Xingtai and was responsible for the military affairs of Heyang. At present, Heluo is no longer the focus of the war, and Jianzhou has been captured by Qiang thieves. Huaizhou is located in the Hanoi area adjacent to Jianzhou. It is appropriate for Huaizhou to be the governor of Heyang and lead the military in Heyang.
Of course, Gao Yang also knew very well that it was very difficult to stabilize the situation simply by relying on power. The reason why the current situation is turbulent naturally lies outside, in the Western Wei divisions that are pressing forward step by step and winning consecutive battles.
After a little bit of internal personnel management, the real solution to the current worries is to successfully win the external war! In particular, Gao Yang himself needs to cheer up, face the Qiang bandit army in an upright manner, and defeat the intruders cleanly, once again proving to the soldiers and people of the country that he is still the wise, mighty and unstoppable heroic emperor!
So after handling these matters, Gao Yang summoned Tang Yong and ordered all the people in Jinyang to gather at Jinci. He would personally swear to attack the enemy!
I have been busy conceiving the plot for the past two days, and I forgot to tell everyone that the book club group has been banned, not kicked out casually. This is also a bit helpless. It was originally intended to be a place for book friends to chat online, but more than one of them has been blocked. Recently, the plot has reached a critical moment, and there is no extra energy to continue it. If you have any comments, you can leave a message in the book review chapter. I won’t do it in the group for now. Sorry, sorry, I wish you success in your work and a happy life! ! !
