Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 108
Yang Ming was not at ease at first, thinking that Chen Shuyi's personality was not suitable for socializing with others. After all, she was born as a princess, so she would not speak soft words and would not know how to please others.

This is why Yang Ming's attitude towards Chen Shuyi is far better than others, and he doesn't mind being yelled at by her, because her personality has already been set and cannot be changed.

But to his surprise, Chen Shuyi really got along with Gao Yue.

I waited anxiously in the tea room all morning, but it turned out that Chen Shuyi asked a servant to pass the message: She ate lunch at Gao Yue's, and asked Yang Ming to leave her alone.

Not bad. The progress is pretty fast.

Yang Ming knew from Yu Wenlan earlier that this Gao Yue was withdrawn by nature, and he rarely talked to the maids around him, often sitting alone for a whole day without motivating him.

There must be something wrong with this girl's psychology. It should be a character defect caused by the ruin of the country and her family, so that she has a mental illness.

Chen Shuyi's ability to get in touch with the other party so quickly should have resonated with her.

Yu Wenlan once said that Gao Yue's three meals a day in Jinyang Building only cost five baht a piece, which was completely simple and light food, but he was quite generous to the maids around him.

Originally, Yu Wenlan planned to waive this little money for her, but Gao Yue refused, saying that it is not easy to live here, and she can no longer eat and drink for free.

Only then did Yang Ming understand why Gao Yue's two performances in Jinyang were enough for her to live for more than ten years, which was too frugal.

For such a person, there is a place that is especially suitable for her, the nunnery.

After Yang Ming returned to the palace, he received a letter from Chen Shuyi that evening, and she did not come back at night.

They all eat and live together?
Regarding this point, Yang Ming was quite happy. The more familiar Chen Shuyi was with her, the better.

In the following days, the palace received news that the curfew of Daxing City was temporarily changed from Zishi to Xushi every night, a full two hours earlier.

And the same is true in Lifang. In addition to Wuhouwei, a lot of government troops were sent to patrol the streets. Anyone found not returning at night will be directly thrown into the prison.

The day is getting closer.

On this day, Yang Su and Pei Ju came to the mansion together and chatted with Yang Guang in secret for two hours.

Pei Ju is a capable person. Yang Ming originally thought that this person belonged to the neutral faction, and he had a good relationship between the East Palace and the Prince Jin's Mansion.

And Pei Ju was Yang Jian's close minister, presumably he saw that the wind was not in the right direction, so he made his choice.

Before leaving, Pei Ju even made a special trip to Qingshanfang to visit Yang Ming.

For this big man with a long history, Yang Ming was very polite, invited him into the inner room with the gift of a junior, and served him tea in person.

Yang Guang, who came with Pei Ju, saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but admire his third son in his heart for being so frank.

When Pei Ju saw this, he quickly got up and took the teacup with both hands, saying that he didn't dare.

In the eyes of the Yang family's direct clan, the courtiers of the Sui Dynasty were all subordinates, even a big boss like Pei Ju was no exception.

Because Yang Jian was originally a powerful minister, he supervised his subordinates extremely strictly. The emergence of the system of three provinces and six ministries originally weakened and divided the power of ministers and made the imperial power highly concentrated. Therefore, this system began in Sui Dynasty and was deeply loved The emperors loved it and it lasted until the end of the feudal dynasty.

Yang Jian was also afraid that there would be another powerful minister like him in the Sui Dynasty.

Regardless of the fact that Neishi Ling is only a third rank, but the power is terrifying, Pei Ju's joining this time, Yang Guang can be said to be even more powerful.

"The little girl often praises the Third Highness for being open-minded and treating others with sincerity. Since Pei is here today, he should come to visit."

Yang Ming hurriedly said modestly: "Miss Pei is too generous."

Pei Ju's overall impression is that he is very humble, and the smile on his face is more likely to make people feel close.

But in Yang Ming's view, this person is unfathomable, which makes him feel that he is smarter than me.

Pei Ju was very handsome, tall and tall, only slightly shorter than Gao Jiong among the big men in the court.

Neither Pei Shuying nor Pei Xuanji inherited Pei Ju's outrageously handsome gene. The overall appearance of this person completely fits the image of the evil king Shi Zhixuan in Yang Ming's heart.

After a few polite words, Pei Ju smiled and said:
"It's a pity that His Highness the Third Highness already has a marriage contract, otherwise Pei will really have the audacity to make a move."

During this period of time, Pei Ju was in a bad mood, because his daughter got too close to that boy surnamed Li, and he gave several severe warnings, but unfortunately, his daughter was too hot-tempered and didn't listen to him at all.

And he happened to only have such a prostitute daughter, who had been spoiled since she was a child, and couldn't bear to intervene forcefully.

With his status, if his daughter married such a poor boy, she might not even be able to hold her head up in court.

That's why he thought about finding a good marriage for his daughter as soon as possible, completely cutting off her thoughts.

Of course, he didn't like Yang Ming anymore, he just said it casually.

Yang Ming has a marriage arranged by the Holy Empress, which cannot be changed, and it is impossible for him to make his daughter a concubine. If that is the case, wouldn't his life be in vain?

When Yang Guang heard Pei Ju's words, he put his hand on the back of Pei Ju's and said with a smile:
"We'll discuss this matter again."

Can this matter still be discussed?Certainly not, but now is the time when Yang Guang needs him, so he won't say anything and will leave room for the other party's imagination.

How could an old fox like Pei Ju believe Yang Guang's nonsense, but he would not expose it, and nodded with a smile.

Next, he vomited bitterness in front of Yang Guang, saying that he spoiled his daughter so much that he was quite annoyed that her daughter was getting close to a poor boy during this time.

Yang Guang just listened quietly without making any statement.

On the contrary, Yang Ming pretended to be confused and said a few comforting words, you can't control your daughter, what's the use of telling us?

After chatting nonsense for a while, Pei Ju got up to leave, and Yang Ming followed his father to send him out of the house.

After Pei Ju walked away, Yang Guang turned around and said with a smile:

"I heard that the girl from Pei Ju's family looks good?"

Yang Ming nodded and said, "Very good."

Pei Shuying's appearance is still defensible, Yang Ming absolutely agrees with this, and Pei Shuying has a heroic spirit that cannot be seen from others.

"Although this girl has been in contact with Wu'er several times, it's all in the past." Yang Guang turned and entered the mansion, and said as he walked, "I heard from Pei Ju that this girl has a good impression of you. If you like it, I will do it for you in the future." Father decides for you, let her be your concubine."

When is the future?Of course it was when Comrade Yang Guang stood up.

When her father is crowned the crown prince, Yang Ming will be the heir of the Eastern Palace, and the prince who is certain in the future. If Pei Shuying becomes her concubine, it will definitely not be regarded as a disgrace.

But Yang Ming felt that Dad was making a big cake for himself,

"It's enough for a child to have a main wife, and a concubine's room has never been considered."

Yang Guang chuckled, and patted Yang Ming on the shoulder: "If you don't flirt with youth, a good man will marry nine wives. If you don't have a concubine, how will you arrange for the daughter of Xuangan?"

Yang Ming was stunned for a moment. Although the current relationship between him and Yang Yinjiang was rather vague, he would definitely not allow others to take Yang Yinjiang away.

And he and Yang Yinjiang have been in close contact during this period, and Yang Guang has obviously noticed it, so there is this temptation.

But Yang Ming chose not to answer, aren't you uncertain about my relationship with Yang Yinjiang?Then you continue to be uncertain.

Yang Guang saw it, laughed loudly and said: "Ming'er remember, you are my son, if you fall in love with a woman, just open your mouth, I will see whoever is not good-looking, dare to refuse me."

It's inflated, isn't it?You haven't gone up yet, can we keep a low profile?Isn't it inappropriate to reveal your true nature so quickly?
Don’t let me fall in love with any girl at that time, you will turn around and snatch it away from me. If you can say the words "I am not allowed to be born, I am not allowed to be born, and the rest is not necessary", I have to be on my guard Focus on you.

Of course, it remains to be seen whether there is such a saying in history, after all, the ability of Xiao Li's family to take the blame is not covered.

Among so many emperors in history, it is very common for Lao Tzu to sleep with his son's woman and his son to sleep with Lao Tzu's woman. However, although Comrade Yang Guang's reputation is extremely bad, it seems that there is no record in the history books which son's woman he slept with, let alone A woman who sleeps with her brother.

Yang Ming didn't answer his words, but just shook his head with a wry smile.

Yang Guang finally asked again, what is the name of the boy who is chasing Pei Ju's daughter madly now?Yang Ming replied: Li Dewu.

Then the father and son separated and went back to their respective courtyards.

In the current court, with the support of Yang Su, He Ruobi, and Pei Ju, the three big bosses, Yang Guang's path to the top is basically paved.

Most importantly, Dugu Jialuo also supported it.

In the following days, Chen Shuyi did not return to the palace, and stayed in Jinyang Tower, getting along with Gao Yue day and night.

In this situation, Yang Ming even once thought that there might be a problem with the orientation of these two people?If Gao Yue really dared to bend Chen Shuyi, Yang Ming would have to kill her.

One after another, good news came back to the palace.

The Zuowei of the Eastern Palace led Su Xiaoci, and was transferred to the local area as the governor of Xizhou. The position of Zuowei led by the left could be understood literally, and he was the leader of the Zuowei of the Eastern Palace.

After Su Xiaoci was transferred away, Yang Jian accepted Luo Rong, the general of the Zuojian Gate, to fill in the position of the left guard of the East Palace. Now it's all right, the prince can't even transfer his own personal guard.

The main duty of the left and right prison gates is to guard the twelve city gates of the imperial city. It is not someone Yang Jian absolutely trusts, so it is impossible to give you such an important position.

Luo Rong is Yang Jian's confidant. This person is not very famous, but his son is more famous in history: Luo Yi.

Of course, Luo Yi is not Qin Shubao's uncle like in the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there is no such thing at all, and Luo Yi does not have a son named Luo Cheng.

Luo Yi is only 12 years old this year. He is the same age as Yang Ming. Qin Shubao should be sixteen, seventeen or eighteen years old now.

As we all know, Qin Shubao started out with Lai Huer, but now Lai Huer himself is not doing well.

Yang Ming once conducted a special investigation. Lai Huer is now the general manager of Jianzhou, that is, in Fuzhou, Fujian, the officials in charge of the southeast and southwest of the Sui Dynasty are basically doing hard work, because those places are too chaotic and poor. .

Especially in Fujian, a group of rebels will appear every now and then, and the guards are either on the way to suppress the bandits or on the way to suppress the bandits.

However, the relationship between Lai Huer and his father Yang Guang is very good. After all, Jiangdu is also in the south, and the two are close to each other.

In the history of the three expeditions to Goguryeo, the guardian was the main general, and Yang Xuangan's rebellion with the stick was also in the name of crusade to protect the son.

Although it's shabby right now, it doesn't matter, when the father succeeds, it will be a good time for a good friend to come and take care of the child.
