Chapter 8 Punishing Yang Yidong (2)
"Yang Yidong, as a guard and infantry official, you are not aware of the intention of harming me, but you are not aware of the crime?"
Yang Yidong lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "I know I am guilty of my crime."
"Just know the guilt."
Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, "Since I know the crime, I will not make things difficult for you. Go to the front office of the palace to find a position!"
The imperial guards in the Palace Front Department were not responsible for protecting the emperor in person. If he transferred Yang Yidong there, it would not be easy for him to harm Zhao Dongting.
As he said that, Zhao Dongting looked at Su Liuyi, "Mr. Su, you will arrange your position."
He thought that no one would object to his own military commander, and he would not have been able to deal with a mere Yang Yi Cave.
But unexpectedly, Concubine Yang suddenly made a sound to stop him, "That's not!"
Zhao Dongting was puzzled, "Mother, what's wrong? Do you think the emperor's son's handling is inappropriate?"
Concubine Yang shook her eyebrows slightly and did not speak. Obviously, she had just spoken out and stopped Zhao Dongting.
After a few seconds, she slowly said to Zhao Dongting: "Yes, since we escaped from Lin'an City, Lord Yang has been in charge of the Guards and Infantry, and has worked hard and made great contributions for our mother and son. He is familiar with the affairs of the Guards and Infantry, and has outstanding talents. Although he is responsible for Yang Wanli's affairs, it would be a bit rash if you transfer him to the front office of the Palace in this way, and it is easy to make people feel upset. According to the mother's opinion, it is better to retain his official duties of the Guards and Infantry to observe the results of the future. How about it?"
Yang Yidong hurriedly said, "Thank you, Empress Dowager, I will devote all my efforts to repay the holy grace."
"inappropriate!"
Zhao Dongting spoke decisively.
If you really follow Concubine Yang Shu, it wouldn’t mean that Yang Yidong was not punished?
Moreover, if Yang Yidong continues to serve as the official affairs of the guards and infantry, how can he take over the guards' personal army?
If he really wants to harm himself, wouldn't it be easy?
Zhao Dongting would never want to let Yang Yidong, a person who might be a cancer, stay by his side.
Seeing that Zhao Dongting rejected her words, Yang Shufei looked a little unhappy and said slightly: "Don't be willful."
None of the ministers dared to speak, but many were surprised. The little emperor really grew up and dared to deny the Queen Mother's words.
Of course, there is no way to know what kind of slightness will appear in their hearts.
Zhao Dongting knew that he could not resist Yang Shufei, so it was obvious that it was not too likely to transfer Yang Yidong to the front office of the palace. He could only retreat and said: "According to the words of his mother, it is not impossible to retain the official duties of the Yang Yidong infantry army. However, my side must be protected by the personal army commanded by me."
He also saw that Concubine Yang was very suspicious of herself now and was even more eager to form her own strength.
However, what he said was nothing to everyone's ears. Perhaps the little emperor was frightened by the assassination and could no longer believe Yang Yidong. It was normal for him to just take charge of the troops and protect him.
Concubine Yang Shu didn't care about the guards and infantrymen, so she said, "Then Lord Yang will protect the palace of my palace with full duty!"
After all, she was just suspicious.
"The Queen Mother!"
Yang Yidong was anxious.
But Concubine Yang just glanced at him lightly and asked him to stop.
Zhao Dongting also knew that this was almost Yang Shufei's bottom line, so he gave up, "It depends entirely on the mother's wishes."
Yang Yidong instantly looked like a defeated rooster.
Of course, there are many ministers who secretly gloat about the misfortune.
Su Liuyi was deprived of the military power of the guards' personal army, and his face was not very good-looking. In this way, his right to speak in the court was greatly reduced. As one person declined and the other increased, he would inevitably be suppressed by Zhang Shijie and others in the future.
He was so angry that he shouted to the guards outside the door: "Don't you get out and clean the emperor's bedroom."
More than ten armored guards rushed in outside the door and hurriedly carried the bodies inside the house out.
A minister looked at Zhao Dongting and asked, "Emperor, how should I deal with the imperial physician An and this eunuch?"
Zhao Dongting said: "Who is this lord?"
This minister is about fifty years old, his temples are gray, and his standing is right next to Zhang Shijie, so his status is definitely not low.
He bowed slightly and replied, "I signed the letter to Lu Xiufu, the head of the Privy Council."
Lu Xiufu was a famous minister at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty and was extremely loyal. When the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed, he would rather die than be humiliated by the emperor. He jumped into the sea to commit suicide with the last emperor Zhao Bing on his back and survived and died with the Southern Song Dynasty. Seeing that it was him, Zhao Dongting looked a little softer and said, "The grandson of Doctor An was held hostage by Yang Wanli, which was helpless to make me feel guilty, so he still worked in the Imperial Hospital. This little eunuch... has no monarch and no loyalty and righteousness in his heart. Let's take it out and behead him!"
"emperor……"
The little eunuch screamed and fainted from scare.
Two guards came over and carried him and the chair out.
Doctor An knelt on the ground and just kept saying, "Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness..."
The house finally calmed down.
Zhao Dongting asked Su Liuyi to arrange for someone to search Yang Wanli's home and save Doctor An's grandson, and then stopped talking.
Concubine Yang looked at Zhao Dongting, then at Yang Yidong, and said, "It's getting late, so let's take a break soon."
Zhao Dongting nodded, "Give me a farewell to my mother."
Concubine Yang Shu walked out of the house with all the ministers.
Doctor An kowtowed and saw blood on his forehead, then he got up and slowly retreated out.
He looked at Zhao Dongting now with gratitude in his eyes.
When everyone arrived at the door, Zhao Dongting suddenly shouted: "Mr. Su, let all the guards gather at the school tomorrow morning."
Su Liuyi's figure suddenly froze. He probably couldn't control the anger in his stomach. He didn't look back, but just replied softly.
Zhao Dongting was too lazy to care about it. He was satisfied with getting the military power of the guards' personal army, so there was no need to care about these trivial matters anymore.
Everyone left one after another.
Soon a little eunuch came in to clean up.
The blood on the ground looked really cunning.
Ying'er saw Zhao Dongting sitting on the bed in a daze, and wanted to leave, "Emperor, I will leave..."
"Don't!"
Zhao Dongting turned his head and said, "I am still scared, so you can stay here with me!"
I just returned from the gates of hell. Even though Zhao Dongting had a lot of experience in his previous life, he was really feeling a little scared at this time. It was not a lie to say that he was afraid.
Ying Er misunderstood Zhao Dongting's meaning. She thought about Zhao Dongting's actions during the day and thought that the little emperor had some thoughts, and her pretty face suddenly turned red.
But looking at Zhao Dongting's pitiful appearance, she couldn't help but feel soft and she nodded and agreed.
In fact, she really underestimated Zhao Dongting.
