Chapter 1760 What a pity
Although Yang Heshu didn't say it, Manbao still knew that he was in a bad situation. Chongwenguan was not a paradise, and the disputes in the palace and the court were naturally discussed.
Now Xiao Yuanzheng and the others have returned to the Imperial Hospital to edit books and work, and only Manbao remains in Chongwenguan.
After all, she lives and eats here, and there is so much rich information here, so of course she likes it more.
So, when she returned from her classes at the Imperial Medical Bureau that afternoon, before she even entered the room, she heard several editors in the library quietly discussing Yang Heshu. One of them said, "I heard that Master Yang has submitted a letter of resignation. I wonder where he will be transferred to after leaving the Imperial Medical Bureau and the Ministry of Revenue."
"No matter where he goes, his bright future is over. His Majesty originally valued him. Just wait for three to five years. When the Imperial Medical Bureau has trained its first batch of doctors and medical offices are established in various places, he will be the main contributor. Then he will be transferred back to the Ministry of Revenue and will definitely be able to get the position of Vice Minister."
"That's right. With his talent, he could take over the Ministry of Revenue from Minister Liu in seven or eight years at most. At this rate, he might even become the youngest Prime Minister since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty."
"It shouldn't be that fast. The two assistant ministers of the Ministry of Revenue are not bad either."
"They don't have enough family background, so they have to be sent out to other places to gain experience. I heard that the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is already planning to send them out."
"Yes, in this entire court, those whose family background is higher than Yang Heshu's are not as talented as him; and those whose talent is equal to his are not as talented as him." The editor shook his head and said, "What a pity, what a pity."
"This case was investigated by Tang He. They used to be inseparable, but this time, they barely even greeted each other when they met."
"Ah, the word 'profit'."
"The Yang family has finally produced a prince. If the fifth prince is lucky, then the Yang family will become an in-law."
"What's so good about being a relative by marriage? A grandson is still a relative by marriage, how can he compare to a biological son?" One editor wrote, "An emperor can only ensure prosperity for two generations, but a prime minister can ensure prosperity for three generations. In my opinion, Lord Yang has bought the casket and returned the pearl, not to mention that this isn't even his own grandson."
"Now that the Crown Prince has given birth to his firstborn son, his position has been consolidated. I'm afraid they have miscalculated."
Manbao turned around and left. She walked to the front to find Yang Heshu, and was told that the always diligent Yang Heshu had left the palace and returned home.
This was a rare occurrence. The Imperial Medical Bureau had a lot of work to do, and he often had to stay until sunset before leaving the palace. It was rare for him to leave on time.
Manbao stood in front for a while, then turned around and went to the classroom to find Bai Shan. She happened to meet Kong Jijiu telling them about "Guan Zhong and Duke Huan of Qi", so she leaned against the wall to listen.
It was almost time to go home from school, so Manbao only listened to the tail end of the story.
But she had heard the story of Guan Zhong and Duke Huan of Qi before. Although the emphasis of the gentlemen in each period was different, some things would not change.
For example, Guan Zhong was the best prime minister in the world.
Kong Jijiu put away his books and came out. Seeing Zhou Man standing against the wall with his head lowered, he couldn't help but stop and asked, "Are you here for class?"
Man Bao shook his head, thought for a moment, then nodded and asked, "Kong Jijiu, if Duke Huan of Qi had not listened to Bao Shuya's advice, and had not used Guan Zhong or had him killed, would Qi have been able to hold the meeting?"
Kong Jijiu thought for a moment and said, "It's difficult. Guan Zhong's ability is rare in the world. Confucius once said, 'Without Guan Zhong, I would have my hair loose and my clothes on the left.'"
The prince originally wanted to wait until Kong Jijiu walked away before getting up and leaving, but when he saw the two of them standing outside the window talking and not leaving, he stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked to the door to watch them.
Then Zhou Man asked, "Kong Jijiu, if you knew someone with the ability of Guan Zhong, would you recommend him to His Majesty?"
Kong Jijiu said proudly: "Of course, this is a blessing for the country."
Manbao nodded, took a step back and saluted to thank Kong Jijiu for answering his questions.
Kong Jijiu couldn't help but look at her seriously, and seeing that she had no intention of continuing, he turned and left. Before leaving, he also glanced at the prince lightly.
As soon as he left, the students who were feeling suppressed in the classroom immediately stood up, but because the prince was standing at the door, although everyone stood up and was eager to try, they still did not dare to be presumptuous.
Bai Shan was anxious. After greeting the prince, he carefully slipped away from him and ran to Man Bao to ask, "I forgot to ask you, did anything go wrong at the court meeting today?"
They didn't see each other at lunch because Manbao went to the Imperial Medical Bureau.
Manbao said, "Nothing happened. I just sat there and listened to them talking." Then he accidentally slept through the morning court session.
The prince stepped forward with his hands behind his back and asked her, "Who is that man with the ability of Guan Zhong?"
Manbao said without hesitation: "It's Master Yang Heshu Yang."
The prince turned and left.
Yang Heshu's talents are good, but is it too much to say that he has the talent of Guan Zhong?
Seeing that he didn't hesitate, Manbao pursed his lips and turned to ask Bai Shan, "Don't you think Brother Yang is amazing?"
Bai Shan nodded, "It's amazing."
Thinking of his hands-on approach and tolerant nature in Luojiang County, Bai Shan asked, "What happened to Brother Yang?"
Manbao sighed and looked around. She didn't want to mention this matter in front of so many people, so everyone went to the observation building. She asked Ma Fuming and others to carry the lunch boxes while she sat upstairs and told them what she knew.
"Brother Yang seems to be having a hard time right now."
Liu Huan, who had joined in the fun, was stunned and asked in confusion, "From what you're saying, it's the Yang family who wanted to harm Manbao and the Crown Princess, and it was Manbao who provided the evidence against Xu Yu. So, should we still sympathize with Lord Yang now?"
Everyone looked at him with contempt.
Bai Erlang said, "You are too superficial. This matter has nothing to do with Brother Yang. Brother Yang has always been a man of integrity. It's obvious that he's been implicated in this matter."
Bai Shan also nodded, "Manbao is innocent, and even Xu Yu didn't do much wrong. The real culprit is the person who trained her and threatened her. Why can't we sympathize with Brother Yang?"
Yin Huo said, "But we really can't do anything about this matter. I believe there are many people in the court who are jealous of Brother Yang. This time, regardless of whether he participates or not, he will be implicated."
Bai Shan felt bad too, frowning and saying, "So it's actually better for Brother Yang to resign from the East Palace at this time."
Manbao said uncomfortably, "But if that's the case, wouldn't Yang Xuexiong's path to success be cut short?"
Bai Shan laughed and said, "How can it be so easy to break? You really underestimate Brother Yang."
He said, "If you don't believe me, go ask Brother Yang yourself."
Manbao wanted to ask, but he had no chance to see him in the next seven days. Not only him, but she also had no chance to see Tang He.
Firstly, she was busy, and secondly, Tang He was also busy.
The emperor was very angry. Yang Rong was imprisoned in the Dali Temple, and quite a few ministers were summoned for questioning with him, most of whom were from side branches of the aristocratic families.
I heard that the patriarchs of the Cui family, the Wang family of Langya, and the Lu family had all come to the capital to apologize. Of course, they were not there to confess their crimes. They believed that imprisonment was not conducive to allowing their clansmen to commit such a serious mistake. This was their fault.
See you at 11pm
I have revised the chapter "Sleepy" because I forgot that Manbao's rank is higher than Lord Tang's, so the positions are reversed.
