Chapter nine hundred and eighty fourth question

"Mr. Yang was joking. His right minister was respected and wise. Who doesn't admire his wisdom?"

Li Xun is not flattering Yang Daolin, but telling the truth.

After Yang Daosi's death, the court suddenly became turbulent, and various political forces began to collide fiercely, competing for the position of right prime minister.

The importance of the right prime minister is self-evident. At that time, Zhao Zhi could barely control the overall situation of the regime, so to a large extent, he had a certain choice for the right prime minister. Zhao Zhi's initial idea was to take Liu Jie as the right prime minister and Li Zhong as the left prime minister. However, the situation in the Momeng grassland at that time was turbulent and fierce. The two major Hu tribes in the north and south were actively preparing for war. The atmosphere of war was unprecedentedly strong and was about to break out.

Under such circumstances, Zhao Zhi did not dare to transfer Li Zhong from Anbei easily. Moreover, because the political struggle in the court became increasingly fierce and Yang Binglin succeeded as the patriarch of the Yang clan, the political forces represented by the entire Yang clan headed by him began to become tough and radical.

Without Yang Daosi, the political balance in the court began to become unbalanced. Liu Jie was unwilling to be pushed to the forefront of the political storm by Zhao Zhi, so he eventually rejected Zhao Zhi's proposal and politely rejected the position of successor to the right prime minister.

Liu Jie was unwilling to do so, Li Zhong could not come back, Zhao Zhi had no suitable candidate at the time, and after thinking about it, he finally appointed Yang Daolin to succeed as the right prime minister. This could not only temporarily quell the political struggle, but also effectively block Yang Binglin's rise to power, killing two birds with one stone. As far as the situation is concerned, Zhao Zhi's choice was not wrong.

Everyone thinks that Yang Daolin's succession as Right Prime Minister is just a transition and will never last long. When the political situation is stable, someone will replace him immediately.

The three brothers Yang Daosi, Yang Daolin and Yang Daoan are actually not simple. It is just because Yang Daosi's light is too strong that it covers up the two younger brothers, which makes Yang Daolin and Yang Daoan seem a little mediocre. In fact, they are by no means mediocre.

Yang Daolin's political wisdom is not mediocre at all. He is very clear about his political value. Therefore, after he took office, Yang Daolin united his tribe and continued to implement Yang Daolin's political line, balanced the forces of all factions in the court, resisted Yang Binglin's political adventures, and was harmonious with the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall. They put state affairs first, do not fight for power or internal struggle, and balanced the interests of all parties on the basis of unity and stability.

Yang Daolin's series of actions were beyond Zhao Zhi's expectations. He never expected that Yang Daolin's political wisdom was so outstanding. His political maturity and sophistication were no worse than his brother Yang Daolin.

It would be nice to have such a person in the right prime minister's position.

Zhao Zhi changed his original idea and decided to let Yang Daolin continue to do it, and he might have good results.

Li Xun sometimes thinks that if Yang Daolin was given an equal political environment, perhaps his achievements would not be worse than Yang Daolin. Unfortunately, human destiny is sometimes destined. Yang Daolink has all his abilities and ambitions, but he has no chance and time.

Yang Run suddenly sighed and said, "The environment has changed. People with integrity will not receive good rewards!"

Li Xun glanced at Yang Run and remained silent. He knew why Yang Run sighed so much. Whether it was Yang Daosi or Yang Daolin, they might do many things for the benefit of the family, or even use any means. But in the general direction, whether it is Yang Daosi or Yang Daolin, they are all firm royalists. Their political ideals are not the priority of family interests, but the survival and death of the country and the family.

"What do you mean to me?"

Li Xun asked out loud.

Yang Run said: "The Emperor asked Li Xiangguo to go back as soon as possible."

Li Xun nodded and said nothing. As the prime minister of the current dynasty, if there is no need, it would be impossible for a long time to stay.

Yang Run's trip to Lingnan actually means another meaning, which is to replace Li Xun. He stayed here to deal with subsequent matters, while Li Xun could leave. From this perspective, Zhao Xun had the intention to use Yang Run. Is this just for him personally or for the entire Yang clan?

Although Li Xun was very dissatisfied with Zhao Xun's personnel arrangements, he would not do things that harm others and do not benefit himself because of this.

Before leaving, Li Xun found Guo Yang, Hong Chengtao, Chang Shuo and others, told them the content of the imperial edict in advance, and tried his best to appease their emotions.

After Hong Chengtao and others knew the details, they suddenly felt a look of disappointment on their faces. Their biggest wish was naturally to stay in Lingnan, because this was their hometown, and their relatives and friends were all here. Whether it was doing things or living, it would be much more convenient. Of course, disappointment was disappointment, but they did not have much resistance to going to Fengjing. After all, the emperor was preparing to form a new army, and these people would definitely be promoted and reused. In terms of their future prospects, it was also very good.

Li Xun chatted with the three of them for a while, Hong Chengtao and Chang Shuo said goodbye and left. They were preparing to return to their hometown immediately and prepare to go to Fengjing at any time. This time, they were thousands of miles away, and in a short time, they probably wouldn't be able to come back. They were all people with families. This time they went to Fengjing, not only one person, but many people.

Guo Yang did not leave, but followed Li Xun for a walk outside.

"Guo Yang, what are your plans?"

Li Xun asked out loud.

Guo Yang said softly: "I will listen to you from the Prime Minister."

Li Xun stopped, turned around, pointed at Guo Yang and said, "Entering the new army is not necessarily a good thing."

Guo Yang was slightly stunned, then bowed and said, "Please teach me."

Li Xun said indifferently: "The establishment of the new army will inevitably become the focus of everyone's attention. Whether it is the emperor or the aristocratic family group, they will concentrate their efforts to carry out fierce political struggles on the ownership of the new army. If you are in it, you will easily become the target of others' attacks."

Li Xun was very clear that the establishment of the new army would be an unprecedented political storm. Zhao Xun and the aristocratic family group maintained peace for more than a year. Perhaps with the establishment of the new army, it would end completely. It was not, but certain. Zhao Xun intended to form a military force completely controlled by himself and form absolute control over Fengjing. The aristocratic family group would also carry out crazy blocking and counterattacks. They would never want to see that Zhao Xun could control a powerful force that threatened them at any time. This contradiction could not be resolved by both sides, and there was no possibility of reconciliation.
