Chapter 186 Asshole
Yang Yun's idea of entering politics in the imperial examination has never changed, but his thoughts are not something Yang Yuhuan can understand.
Since you have achieved such great achievements in practicing Taoism and become the "little heavenly master" respected by the world, why bother to seek trouble and enter another unfamiliar field, and pursue illusory achievements that are of no help to enhance your current identity?
But Yang Yun insisted on this, so she no longer forced herself and focused on planning a good marriage for Yang Yun!
Yang Yuhuan did not fool Yang Yun.
He said that he wanted to study the marriage of two famous ladies from the capital for Yang Yun. After he returned, he really did his homework. When he met several times before the New Year, he talked about what she had learned. He also said that he would give Yang Yun a list after the New Year, so that Yang Yun would pursue the unmarried woman of the famous family in Chang'an and Luoyang Yunying, in order to realize her idea of reviving the Yang family in her mind.
Yang Yun didn't plan to listen to Yang Yuhuan, but he couldn't help his sister's fun.
During this period, Yang Yuhuan could not learn Taoism. He stayed at home and did nothing every day. It was better to study and mediate him than to go out and use charisma to hook up with wealthy families.
He was also very surprised that King Shou Li Mao did not pursue Yang Yuhuan fiercely after that meeting. Perhaps Li Mao did something, but because Yang Yuhuan's marriage was led by Yang Xuanhu, Yang Xuanhun would definitely not discuss it with him if he had anything to do.
"Are you supposed to let your sister enter the palace directly, or follow the original history and let her live a peaceful life with Li Mao for a few years? Or just let her pursue her own happiness, I entered the court alone and no longer use her relationship to get to power..."
The plan that Yang Yun made from the beginning was to make a name for himself with Yang Yuhuan.
He knew how difficult it would be to gain power in this era by relying solely on the influence of the imperial examination or Taoist sect.
Wang Yu is amazing enough. He is the governor of Jiannandao, but he was dismissed from his post just after losing a battle.
On the other hand, Yang Guozhong failed to conquer Nanzhao twice, and the emperor only said a few light words of reprimand. Nothing is wrong. This is the power of the pillow style.
In fact, Yang Yun can do nothing. After all, no matter how tragic the Anshi Rebellion is, it will not affect Shu. He can rely on his vision that exceeds thousands of years and has powerful superpowers to slowly farm in Shu, and wait until everything breaks out before cleaning up the mess.
But he couldn't bear it.
As he integrated into the Tang Dynasty and his understanding of people's livelihood, culture and other aspects of this era, this is indeed a rare prosperous scene in Chinese history. At least most places are peaceful and peaceful, the people live without worries about food and clothing. If the Tang Dynasty is allowed to decline from prosperity, he will inevitably feel a sense of "crime"... I can change everything, why do I have to follow the development of history?
"Forget it, it depends on how my sister makes her own choice... She follows the path she chose in her heart, and will continue to do whatever she wants, and I will not feel guilty. I cannot impose my will on her, thinking that you can get happiness by finding a good husband for her, but is that really happiness?"
Thinking of this, Yang Yun did not want to interfere too much in Yang Yuhuan's marriage. Instead of trying hard, it would be better to let everything go.

During this period of the New Year, the snow in Luoyang continued to fall. It was rare at this time of global warming and the impact was also great.
The road was blocked with heavy snow, and Luoyang City was relatively in short supply, and many families began to lack clothing and food.
The court stood up at this time and began to set up porridge shops in various parts of the city to help the people.
In Yang Yun's opinion, the court did a good job in benefiting the people. At least during the Kaiyuan period, Li Longji was addicted to Yili, but he was not as obsessed with Yili during the Tianbao period. He was very concerned about people's livelihood. The officials below, and even the ranks of the arch masters, were actively doing practical things for the people.
On this day, Dong Qirong, the owner of Linfang, came to visit, contacted Yang Yun and the big families in the shop, and comforted the people.
On this issue of benefiting people's livelihood, Yang Yun never vaguely proposed to donate a batch of materials.
Dong Qirong did not agree, hinting that Yang Yun only needed to stand up and help call him, and he didn't have to pay, so he found a way to raise the money himself.
Yang Yun immediately agreed and asked Dong Qirong to take charge, but he was still preparing to donate a batch of food and clothing, and he would pay the money to buy it from the Mi family. After all, the Mi family has many businesses in the city involving food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Furthermore, he wanted to finalize the issue of high wine agency with the Mi family before the New Year.
However, when He Wuliu was asked to go to the Mi family, he was told that the Mi brothers and sisters were now outside the city and had not returned after the heavy snow was blocked. All commercial cooperation matters were suspended. As for purchasing grain and food, they could only find other families.
"It's the end of the year, why did you suddenly leave the city? Is it going to do business, or is there something else?" Yang Yun didn't understand, but he didn't get involved in the internal affairs of the Mi family.
As the end of the year approaches, Yang Yun began to prepare for the New Year. This was the first Spring Festival he had celebrated after coming to the Tang Dynasty. Although he didn't have much thoughts about the New Year, the little lolittle around him were looking forward to it. As the head of the family, he could not disappoint these little lolites who had finally had a warm family.
...
...
Three days before New Year's Eve, Wang Ji suddenly came to find Yang Yun.
Yang Yun originally thought that Songmei had something to discuss. After Wang Ji explained his purpose, he especially saw Wang Ji's angry look when he spoke, and knew something was wrong.
"Senior brother, don't recognize Songmei, a fake master... What a thing? She is simply an inglorious bastard wearing a Taoist robe. She is worse than a beast."
Wang Ji cursed.
Yang Yun asked with a smile, "What made you so angry? Did he mess with you?"
Wang Ji said: "Some things shouldn't be told to my senior brother, but I don't feel unhappy. When he came out of the palace that day, he made a joke when he went to the Liu Mansion to have a banquet, and satirized the Luoyang colleagues attending the meeting in person for no ability. They talked loudly during the meal and almost revealed their bottom line. Fortunately, I and Liu Mansion mediated from it, so nothing happened."
"Recently, he has become even more aggressive. My senior brother said he would not take on rituals, so I kept watching him very tightly, so I didn't make any trouble. Isn't this the New Year? I have something to do at home and relaxed a little. He immediately went out to solicit business. Many wealthy families heard that he was respected by His Majesty as the Heavenly Master, so they invited him to go back to do rituals. He brought a large group of disciples, and didn't even know the basic rules of rituals. They made a lot of jokes. When others pointed out, he also emphasized that his methods were unique."
Yang Yun heard Wang Ji tell that although Songmei was quite fucking doing these things, she didn't make Wang Ji so angry.
"Say the point."
Yang Yun interrupted Wang Ji.
Wang Ji was stunned, turned his head, as if he was ashamed to say something, and said annoyedly: "What really makes people angry is that he went to the Xiang family to do rituals the day before yesterday. At night, Xiang family kept him at the mansion for a banquet. He actually ran to the inner courtyard of the Xiang family. He was driven out by the Xiang family by drinking and harassed the female family of the Xiang family. He heard that the person sued the government. If it weren't for Liu Fu Yin's help to settle the matter, this matter would have been a cause for the news, and our master's reputation would have been ruined by this old charlatan."
Hearing this, Yang Yun finally knew why Wang Ji came.
Songmei was so proud that she met the emperor by entering the palace, and even fought with the famous Taoist priest Luo Gongyuan to a draw, and began to do whatever she wanted.
Yang Yun looked calm and shook his head and said, "Who is he? I believe you should have known it long ago."
Wang Ji asked in surprise: "Senior Brother, aren't you angry? This is a big event that ruins the reputation of the master. How can he continue to do whatever he wants?"
"hehe."
Yang Yun smiled and said, "He is just an ordinary Taoist priest in the mountains. He has always been short of money and has never seen many markets. He suddenly achieved such great achievements and is respected by the world. He may still know how to restrain himself, but if he drinks a few cups of horse urine, he will be afraid that he will immediately reveal his true colors and do something out of order in arrogance. Isn't it normal?"
Yang Yun's expression was too dull, as if everything had been expected, which made Wang Ji feel very incredible.
"Senior Brother, are you so angry? He ruined our reputation so much that he should suffer... Senior Brother has some ways to stop him." Wang Ji said in disbelief.
You did the job of finding a fraudster to impersonate a master. Now that there is a problem with this fake, you should immediately correct the source, otherwise our "master" will be embarrassing. I, a disciple who has never seen a master and has not yet officially entered the wall, are so concerned. Why are you not in a hurry as a proud disciple of the "master"?
"Did you tell his wife about this?" Yang Yun asked.
Wang Ji's face was full of shame and shook his head and said, "It's so shameful. I haven't said it yet, but it's useless to say it."
Yang Yun smiled and said, "Go and try to talk. If he causes some trouble for him, he will know that he will restrain himself. Then he will remind him that if he continues to do whatever he wants, I will let him disappear completely in Luoyang."
"These words are probably useless." Wang Ji was very anxious.
Yang Yun continued to shake his head: "No matter whether it is useful or not, I can't beat him to death. The best way to teach him a lesson is to let him bear the consequences after doing something wrong... The achievements he achieved by impersonation are not worth mentioning in my eyes. If I offend me, I don't have to mess around in Luoyang."
Wang Ji thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I'll threaten him now. If I don't know how to restrain myself, my brother and I will drive him away and let him die."
...
...
Song Mei had something to do after drinking after doing the work. Although she did not go to court with the help of Liu Hengzheng, it still had an impact on the golden sign "Wu Zun".
The end of the year was originally a intensive period for Taoist priests to do rituals. After the heavy snow, everyone was blocked at home. Holding a church, a ritual, or something, making the family lively. At the end of the year, it will be a joy to eliminate bad luck. Songmei's business should be crowded.
But after Songmei had an accident, the transaction stopped and no one asked Songmei to do the rituals again.
You are famous and recognized by the emperor. However, your character is not good. We are trying to be happy, not to cause bad luck. You can stay wherever you are cool.
Originally, Yang Yun thought that even if the matter before the New Year was over, he would wait until the New Year to talk about it. Unexpectedly, Songmei's wife Ning Lan came to visit her in person and apologized to Yang Yun for her husband.
"...He is a person who is not bad at first, but he can't drink alcohol. He can't control himself as soon as he drinks alcohol. He is unrestrained and not only destroys the reputation of the Venerable, but also implicates others... The prince has explained what you mean. He promises not to make mistakes again and will not get drunk in the future."
Ning Lan was afraid that Yang Yun would drive Songmei away, so she kept saying good things to her husband.
Yang Yun was extremely helpless when facing such a well-educated and polite woman who caused him trouble every time.
"He did something wrong, I said everything I should say. Why should I come back, madam?" Yang Yun shook his head and said.
Ning Lan was red with her eyes and cried: "In the future, we want to gain a foothold in Luoyang. Even if we do some small rituals, as long as we can make a living, he would not even be ashamed to go out after this incident. He would point fingers whenever he saw him. Since you found him impersonating his name, now he has ruined the reputation of the Venerable, why don't you come out to help save it?"
Yang Yun sighed: "I should not bear the responsibility for the mistakes he made. People in Luoyang don't discuss for too long, and at most they can change their base."
Ning Lan was very reluctant, probably thinking that since her husband was famous in Luoyang Palace, she should take root in Luoyang and make a living. No one knew her when she left Luoyang.
"I will go and ask what the situation is now. Let's wait for the New Year if you have something to do." Yang Yun couldn't stand the situation in the end and sighed.
