Back to Datang with weapons

Chapter 692 Resignation (please subscribe!)
It was already dawn, but many people were still immersed in their dreams.

But for Mo Guogong, he is old, and as a general, he has always had the habit of doing morning exercises, so he got up early in the morning to wield knives and guns, sweating profusely.

Suddenly, he frowned, turned his head to the south, and pricked up his ears.

"Father, it's time to clean up and go to court!"

At this time, Mo Xie came over with a towel, handed it to the sweaty Mo Guogong, and said.

Mo Guogong pointed to the sky in Guifang, and then asked: "Xie'er, did you hear anything?"

After hearing this, Mo Xie pricked up his ears to listen to the southern sky, but he didn't hear anything.

So he curiously said: "No, Dad! How can there be any sound!"

Although the sky is bright now, it is very early, just after Yinshi, but because it is July and August, when the sky is the longest, the dawn is early, so at this time most people in Jingzhou City They haven't gotten up yet.

As a result, the city seemed extraordinarily quiet. Mo Xie listened for a while, but did not hear anything.

After hearing this, Mo Guogong shook his head, and muttered there: "According to reason, it shouldn't be wrong?"

Duke Mo was a good fighter when he was young, otherwise he would not be the Duke Mo today!
Thinking back to his life as a soldier, he bravely killed the enemy on the battlefield, fought for years, and spent many days in the wild.

It was when he was fighting in the wild that he developed the habit of seeing all directions and listening to all directions, because if you want to live in the wild, you must be alert!
So his eyes and ears are much better than ordinary people.

He can also hear some sounds that ordinary people cannot hear.

"Dad, what did you just hear?"

Moye asked again.

"I just heard the army shouting "Go south to Jinling" in unison, but the voice only rang twice, and then disappeared. Could it be that Xie'er didn't hear it?"

Mo Xie shook her head, feeling a little sad again.

He really didn't hear anything, and at the same time he probably guessed why his father Mo Guogong got it wrong.

Presumably, he thought of his sister who had been away for many days, right?

Zhang Twelve committed suicide by throwing himself into the river. It was not just the Zhang family who was sad, but several families were affected!
Especially the Mo family and the Mu family.

Compared to the Mu family, the Mo family may be the most aggrieved!
Because Mu Xiangrong went south to Jinling with the Zhang family, that can still be said. After all, Mu Xiangrong is the daughter-in-law who has never been married to the Zhang family. Let me tell you that the girl from the Mu family is really emotional!
And what's going on with Mo Li?

She also went south together, which seemed incomprehensible to many people, because on the surface, Mo Li was just Zhang Twelve's senior sister. For a junior, it was necessary to go to Jinling?

More importantly, is this junior brother still dead?
The most important thing is that he also resigned the second-rank general Zhen Guo!
Many people couldn't understand this, and there were a lot of gossip, some said that Mo Li and Zhang Twelve were called senior sister and junior brother, but in fact, the two had already had an affair in private, it was really insulting!
Some people said that Mo Li was at the mercy of jealousy, because the former emperor had given Zhang Twelve the first-rank general to protect the country, much higher than Mo Li, which made Mo Li very dissatisfied, so directly Resigned to express dissatisfaction.

Others said that Mo Li felt that her junior brother Zhang Twelve died for no reason, and the court's attitude towards Zhang Twelve also made her dissatisfied, so she simply didn't even become the general of the town, and just left. up!
Anyway, no matter what kind of argument, Mo Li's evaluation is not high.

These statements also caused the Mo family to suffer, especially Duke Mo. As he got older, his beloved daughter was not by his side, so naturally he would not feel very comfortable.

Moreover, Mo Guogong's wives, including Mo Li's own mother, were all very supportive of Mo Li being able to be with Zhang Twelve, but now they have changed their minds.

It's not their fault for being realistic, after all, in their view, Zhang Twelve is already "dead". They can't just sit and watch their daughter wasting time on a dead man, can they?
It's just helpless, Mo Li didn't listen to their persuasion, and ran to Jinling alone, which made them feel very headache!
………………

"Father, you must have heard it wrong! Xie'er was also in the yard this morning, how could you hear any noise?"

Mo Xie said quickly.

"No? Maybe I heard it wrong! Hey, I'm old, I'm really old, I can't accept my old age!"

Mo Guogong shook his head, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.

The eyes of Mo Xie next to him were sore, the hero is late, maybe he will do the same?Thinking about the man who was invincible and invincible on the battlefield back then, and he was extremely tall in his heart, one day he would bow his head, bend his waist, and grow old, and he couldn't help but be moved!

"Xie'er, is there any news about your sister?"

Mo Guogong asked again.

Before Mo Li left, although he hadn't told her mother and aunts, he had told Mo Guogong, so Mo Guogong knew that Mo Li had left, and he supported Mo Li's actions back then!

When Mo Li left, Mo Guogong only made one request, that is, no matter where Mo Li is, he must write a letter to his home every half a month, and let him know where Mo Li is, safe and sound. or not.

Mo Li agreed at the time, and was very punctual, writing a letter home every half a month.

Counting it, it has been about half a month since the last time I received a letter from home, that's why Mo Guogong asked.

Mo Xie shook her head after hearing this, and then said: "I haven't received my sister's letter from home yet, and I plan to go to the post station to ask after the morning morning is over!"

Mo Guogong nodded, looked at the slowly rising sun, and said: "Okay, pack up and go to the morning court!"

In fact, after the death of Emperor Tang, Tang Yizhi became emperor, and Duke Mo didn't want to go to the early dynasty. Seeing Tang Yizhi's hypocritical and successful face, Duke Mo felt very bored.

He once thought about resigning, but after careful consideration, he felt that it was not the time to resign!
Now is an eventful time. It turned out that when Zhang Guogong was still in power, the two were divided into the highest official positions of military generals, and they could take care of each other. Now that Zhang Guogong has been dismissed, he is the only military general who can fight against civil officials.

If he resigns at this time, then the general camp is really not enough!
So now he can't resign whether in public or private!

So, after Mo Guogong finished packing, he rushed towards the palace with Mo Xie who had been waiting for a long time.

It has to be mentioned here that Mo Xie's original official position is much worse than Zhang Twelve's previous Zhenyuan General.

Zhang Twelve was not qualified to enter the palace at the beginning, and Mo Xie's face was not bigger than Zhang Twelve's, nor was his skin thicker, so how could he enter the palace?

It turned out that after Mo Li resigned, the person who would benefit the most would be Mo Xie!
Because of Mo Li's resignation, the second-rank General Zhen Guo was vacant. At this time, many generals recommended Mo Xie to take up the post, because he was born in Miaohong, and he still had an official position, and it was his sister who resigned. , so in any case, this is a matter of course.

Ever since, Mo Xie replaced Mo Li as the general of Zhen Guo.

To be honest, Moye wasn't that excited about it!

With Mo Xie's temperament, he still wants to play freely for a few more years, and since he became the general of Zhen Guo, others have rumored him that Mo Li resigned because of the persecution of the Mo family, saying that she is a woman Therefore, it is most appropriate to give up the position to the younger brother, which annoys him.

And the most important thing is to get up early every day like today to go to court. If it was before, he would definitely be sleeping on the bed!
Hey, annoying!

Just when Mo Guogong and Mo Xie were on their way to the palace, what they didn't know was that Mo Li's family letter was already on the way.

Speaking of which, Mo Li was very grateful to her father Mo Guogong for his generosity and support, which allowed her to freely go to Jinling and Yue to look for Zhang Twelve.

So she maintains the habit of repairing a book at home every half a month.

And after returning to Jinling from Yunxi, Mo Li couldn't wait to write the news that Zhang Twelve was still alive in his family letter, but how could ordinary people's family letters be sent to Jingzhou so quickly?
One must know that Mo Li wrote the family letter four or five days ago, but the news that Zhang Twelve won Jinling the day before yesterday was sent back to the palace yesterday.
It was precisely because of the family letter that was delayed for a few days that it affected the next fate of the Mo family!

………………

Jingzhou, the imperial palace.

Morning above.

Tang Yizhi still dealt with the matters on the memorial step by step, and then glanced down casually, just in time to catch a glimpse of Taifu Bai Jianfu standing in the front row, his eyes moved slightly without self-examination.

But Bai Jianfu immediately stood up knowingly.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to report!"

"Oh, Taifu Bai, what do you want to say?"

Tang Yizhi said calmly, but he was extremely excited and didn't show it.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has recently felt that he is getting older and older, and he is already a bit powerless in the position of Taifu, and his health is much worse than before. I am afraid that it will be difficult to take on this great responsibility again!"

Bai Jianfu bowed and finished speaking with a sincere tone.

"this…………"

Tang Yizhi "showed a look of distress" and acted like he was thinking deeply.

As soon as he said this, Yang Feng beside him moved.

Ever since Yang Zexin had an accident and was ordered by Emperor Tang not to be an official forever, Yang Feng kept a low profile.

Although he still has the title and aura of prime minister, he knows that at this moment, it is better to keep a low profile and protect himself wisely.

But he never expected that something would happen to Zhang Twelve, the Emperor Tang would die suddenly, and Tang Yizhi would become the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty so logically!
All of this came too suddenly, and it was really weird.

But for him, the ending wasn't too bad.

And not only for him, but for the entire civilian camp, this is good news!
Yang Feng lived his whole life, and he didn't care much about his living situation in his later years. What he cared about was only the entire Yang family. He hoped that after a hundred years, someone from the Yang family would still stand up to protect the Yang family and let the Yang family The brilliance will last forever!

There is no doubt that the young and talented grandson Yang Zexin is the most suitable candidate.

But what shocked him was that when Yang Zexin confronted Zhang Twelve, accidents happened one after another. In the end, even Emperor Tang ordered him not to be an official forever!

If Yang Zexin is abolished, will the Yang family be over?

Yang Feng didn't think about cultivating another successor, because he didn't have the energy. Of course, the current time and his physical condition didn't allow it.

So during that time he was quite depressed.

But after Tang Yizhi came to power and Zhang Twelve had an accident, he had hope again.

But he didn't dare to make a big show of it, but carefully managed all this in private, ready to make a big turnaround!
He has been dormant for so long, and today, he finally has his chance!

………………

Yang Feng stood up, walked to Bai Jianfu's side, bowed to Tang Yizhi and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister is also too old to be qualified for the post of prime minister. I hope His Majesty can make it happen!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the court.

You know, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and everyone's idea is that the bigger the official, the better, and they can't wait to be promoted every day. Who would be stupid enough to take the initiative to give up the official position?

But today is lucky, not only someone voluntarily gave up his official position, but this time there are two people!

More importantly, one of the two people is the Taifu and the other is the prime minister, the most senior civil servant in the Tang Dynasty. Is there any mistake?
So as soon as Yang Feng's words came out, the civil servants below immediately became confused.

"Prime Minister Yang can't!"

"Yes, Prime Minister Yang is in good health, how can he be called old?"

"Isn't it? Besides, if Prime Minister Yang resigns, who can take on this important job?"

Some people in the civil service camp may covet the prime minister's official position, but they all know how much they are, and they know that none of them are qualified for the prime minister's position, so they began to dissuade them.

What's more strange is that everyone was trying to persuade Yang Feng to take back his order and not let him resign, but no one persuaded Bai Jianfu, it was more like they had forgotten Bai Jianfu and left him aside.

Feeling this kind of differential treatment, even though he knew it would be the result, when it really happened before his eyes, Bai Jianfu still had a bad feeling in his heart.

Think back to when I was in power, who wouldn't respectfully call out "Teacher Bai"?

But now, let alone shouting at myself, I first talked about Yang Feng's resignation, but no one came to talk to me, instead they all went to persuade Yang Feng, it was really heartbreaking!

Bai Jianfu sighed, his eyes were full of loneliness, and he was sure that he was really old. Even if he was old enough to resign voluntarily, others would think it was reasonable, and no one would come to persuade him...
