Emperor Sui Yang

When it comes to dealing with the arrogant soldiers of the Right Houwei, everyone can see that the emperor intends to hold his hands high.

That’s right, apart from the memorial to King Yang Ming of Qin, there is also a memorial from the Yushitai of the capital, saying that the public opinion is one-sided that it was Xu Guogong Yu Wenshu who killed the heroes, and hoped that the emperor would punish Yuwen Shiji and give He Ruobi a posthumous title. .

At the meeting, Zhang Heng, the imperial historian, said:
"King Qin has also been suppressing. Recently, many old and old ministers have gone to King Qin's mansion to cry and make noise. King Qin is also very helpless."

The Qianyang Hall of Ziwei Palace is extremely grand and can accommodate hundreds of officials.

The yang of Qianyang Hall has the same pronunciation as Yang, so it was changed to Qianyuan Hall in Tang Dynasty in history.

Since the court meeting was held here, all the ministers participating in the court meeting have changed from standing to sitting, and there is a short table in front of each person to place files.

"King Qin is still too benevolent. Officials who make trouble like this should be whipped to disperse them, and those who take the lead in trouble should be punished severely, so as to serve as a warning to others," Lai Huer said.

Yang Guang nodded: "Mr. Rong's words are in line with my wishes. Immediately issue an edict to the King of Qin, ordering him to rectify public opinion in the capital. Anyone who spreads rumors about Duke Xu will be sentenced to death."

Yu Wenshu was determined. The small meeting in Daye Palace yesterday almost gave him a heart attack. Who knew that this matter would not be over at the meeting today?

Which bastard is spreading rumors?Are you out of your mind?Can I frame He Ruobi?
The emperor's words are basically a final conclusion, so the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple must be responsible for controlling public opinion in the capital. You can't let the king of Qin beat and arrest officials, you have to maintain his image.

This is called good deeds, and bad deeds you do.

Yu Wenbi, Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, and Zheng Shanguo, Minister of Dali Temple, will come up with a plan and hand it over to the capital, and the two departments will suppress it.

Next, Cai Wang Yang Zhiji said:

"Then who should take over the right guard? Zheng Yuanshou and Wei Baoluan are not qualified enough, and I'm afraid they won't be able to take over."

"Don't say they are qualified to be a general," Zuo Wuwei Guo Yan said: "Right now, once Wei Wangyue dies, no one else will do it, so they are destined to be unstable as generals, so how can they talk about being a general?"

"It's still a disadvantage because of lack of military merit," Su Wei said: "At present, in the capital, that is, King Qin can take over the right guard without causing chaos. Zheng and Wei, it's best to move somewhere temporarily."

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded. Su Wei's concerns were undoubtedly right. Zheng and Wei had always been ignored, and they had no weight in the right guard. The two have no military merits and only rely on their family background.

Therefore, if Yang Ming wants to take over smoothly, he must first get these two out and replace them with someone Yang Ming thinks is suitable, so that he can start the cleaning work in the right guard and gradually remove some thorns.

Youhouwei, He Ruobi has been in business for more than 20 years, and it is not easy to erase the influence of others. Every soldier there regards He Ruobi as a god. This kind of ideological worship is difficult to change.

Yang Guang also understood in his heart that the more this kind of thing happened, the more he had to be cautious, and Yang Ming undoubtedly won the hearts of the people in dealing with Wang Yue's matter, and he seemed to be deliberately creating him as the best candidate to take over the right guard.

Knowing the son is more like the father, even Su Wei can see that Yang Ming intends to take over. Could it be that Yang Guang, the real father, can't see it?
In the following discussion, there was almost no objection to the position of the general, and it was not easy for Yang Hao to object, because the third child had military merits, but he did not.

So who should take over the two generals from Zheng and Wei Teng has become the focus of everyone's concern.

One faction, headed by Su Wei, believed that it should be appointed by King Qin himself. After all, Yang Ming is now the garrison of the capital and has the power to lead the army.

In the end, Yang Guang built the coffin and the two generals were handed over to Yang Ming for appointment.

Gao Jiong bowed his head, He Ruo was killed, the capital no longer had Yang Guang's heart disease, so he planned to tour Jiangdu in the south.

But before that, he sent a letter to Daxing, requesting Yang Ming, King of Qin, to send someone to escort Shen Wuhua, wife of Chen Shubao's wife Changcheng, to Luoyang, and Yang Guang would take the widow to the south of the Yangtze River.

No one would think that Yang Guang had that kind of thought about a half-mature lady, because since Yang Guang went to Luoyang, the harem has been expanded again, and there is no shortage of women at all, so how could he have thoughts about a woman who is nearly 50 years old Woolen cloth?

However, in Yang Guang's letter to his son, he did not explain the reason, but Chen Shuyi guessed a general idea.

"Show off your might." After reading the letter, Chen Shuyi sighed, "If Grandpa is still alive, I'm afraid he will bring Grandpa with him."

Yang Ming fully agrees, it should be like this, Shen Wuhua, as the old empress of Chen, was taken by Yang Guang to tour the old places of old Chen, it must be a bit of a show off.

You see, this place used to be your world, but now it's all mine.

Look again, what did you look like back then, and what does Jiangnan look like now?What I have done is far better than Chen Shubao.

Yang Yinjiang said from the side: "I heard that the two wives often speak well of your mother in front of the emperor, and I think there is part of the reason for this."

Chen Shuyi nodded and said: "Chen Lin and Chen Wei are both A Niang's concubine daughters, so they will naturally help A Niang to speak, and A Niang is a devout Buddhist believer, and has a deep relationship with the Tiantai Sect. Master's sect, with this kind of incense, His Majesty should treat A Niang kindly."

"As for the issue of being kind, you don't need to worry about it," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Father has never treated a woman harshly."

Yang Yinjiang said: "Since this is the case, Shuyi has nothing to worry about. I will arrange someone to send my wife to Luoyang as soon as possible, so as not to delay my father's trip."

"Go, the tone in Father's letter is very anxious," Yang Ming said with a smile.

Shen Wuhua is actually very famous in history, not only because he is Chen Shubao's queen, but her image among the people is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the image of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva was male. When Buddhism was first introduced to China from ancient India, it was a male image with two mustaches. However, starting from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it gradually evolved into a female image.

It was originally called Guanshiyin, but it was changed to Guanyin because it avoided someone's name, just like Chang'e was originally called Heng'e, but it was changed to Chang'e because it wanted to avoid the name taboo of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty Liu Heng. What happened to the gods?Still have to make way for the emperor.

The earliest portrait of the female body of Guanyin Bodhisattva is a copy of Shen Wuhua, that is to say, the appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva we see is the appearance of Shen Wuhua.

Shen Wuhua became a monk after the death of the Sui Dynasty, and his dharma name is Guanyin.

As far as Yang Ming knew, there was another person related to the gods in the Great Sui Dynasty. This person was called Zhao Yu. According to historical records, he was the prefect of Meishan at the end of the Sui Dynasty, that is, Meishan City in Sichuan.

This person is the Taoist image prototype of Guanjiangkou Erlang Zhenjun Yang Jian in Journey to the West and the Romance of the Gods. As for the prototype of the Xiaotian dog, I don't know, but it must be a Chinese pastoral dog anyway.

Since it was the father's order to let Yang Ming arrange the two generals on the right side, Yang Ming would definitely say hello to Zheng and Wei in advance.

Sorry, you have been expelled. As for the future, each of you can find a way to go.

In Yang Guang's will, he hasn't said how to arrange for these two people, but with their backgrounds, they can get new positions soon.

So which two people will Yang Ming arrange to help him sit on the right side of the guard?
Very simple, two surnamed Yang, one is Yang Gongdao, the son of Yang Xiong, and the other is Yang Xuanting, the son of Yang Su.

One is to take care of the clan, and the other is to take care of Yang Ming himself.

Yang Xuanting gained a lot of prestige when he was in the ring, and this kid followed Yang Su and fought many battles. His reputation for being fierce had already spread far and wide, and Xiao Xiang Yu's name was not built on it.

But this person must be restrained by Princess Yinjiang, so as not to follow Xuangan to rebel like in history.

As for Yang Gongdao, he is Yang Xiong's sixth son and Yan Xiaotang's sixth uncle.

It means that these two people are both Yang Ming's relatives, and their family background is definitely strong enough, so it is very suitable to suppress the military government.

But Yang Ming still had to be careful, so that night, he sent someone to call the two of them to have a family dinner in the palace.

Princess Yang Yinjiang and Yan Xiaotang will also attend.

After Yang Ming had a drink with the two of them, Xuan Ting said that he drank too much last night and didn't sober up, so he didn't dare to drink any more. Yang Gongdao thought to himself, why did you use my reason first?So he said that he had diarrhea in the past few days and should not drink too much.

Everyone knows that the King of Qin is one of the worst drinkers, and the crown prince, Yang Zhao, has also worn down his health due to alcoholism, so now, almost no one dares to drink with Yang Ming.

"Then let's talk about business," Yang Ming put down his glass and said:

"When you go to the right guard to take over, bring more of your own people, just in case there are some thorns that need to be cleaned up, you all report to me, and I will weigh it myself."

Today's right guard, all the generals have been guarded by Shi Wansui, but Yang Ming's plan is to let them go back to the headquarters, otherwise the guards below will be more likely to cause trouble if there is no one to restrain them.

In other words, Yang Xuanting and Yang Gongdao took over the right guard who had not changed at all except for Wang Yue. This was a difficult task.

But they weren't too worried, because General Wei on the right was the king of Qin, whoever dared to make a mess would be provoking Yang Ming's majesty, and the two of them were just the king of Qin's talker.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, a lowly position is quite useful for governing the army, and it will definitely not cause trouble for Your Highness," Yang Xuan said.

The eldest niece Yang Yinjiang immediately said: "Don't boast about Haikou, things don't come from your mouth, you are often in the army, you should be familiar with the situation, don't be willful and reckless, and the most important thing in everything is to appease you."

"Understood, what the concubine is teaching you," Yang Xuan smiled and nodded quickly.

In the past, when the eldest niece was not married, she often rushed at him, and she was used to it, not to mention that she is now a princess, saying a few words about him is for his own good, Yang Xuanting will not fail to understand this truth.

Among Yang Su's sons, the eldest son Xuangan is not good at outside, but he is a group of tyrannical inside, and his younger brothers are afraid of him, and Yang Yinjiang has been doted on by Yang Yue since she was a child, and there is no one in the Yuegong Mansion. Dare to provoke.

And Yang Xuanting is Yang Yue's stepson, who was adopted by Yang Su.

As the saying goes, one who was born in the family will know three points. After following Yang Su for so many years, even if he listens, Yang Xuanting also knows how to run the army.

But Yang Gongdao couldn't do it, as the son of Prince Guan, he only had a job in Si Nong Temple, the reason was because this kid was a layman.

I don't worry about food or drink, and I'm not the eldest son, so hard work has nothing to do with me.

He eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles, arty, he is a master, and Li Baiyao is also a good friend, but you entrust him with a heavy responsibility, which is quite embarrassing.

The reason why Yang Ming used him was to save Yang Xiong's face. Most importantly, Yang Gongdao was born with a good temper. This person had a very good personality and came from such a humble background, but he would never bully the weak. He was a very benevolent person.

The combination of Yang Xuanting and Yang Gongdao is Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, one is hard and the other is soft, and only the right guard can be appeased by both soft and hard.

Therefore, Yang Ming must let Yang Gongdao understand what his role in the right guard is,
Yang Ming looked at Yang Gongdao and said, "Remember, there are no henchmen in the right guard, they are all servants of His Majesty. Don't despise or abandon them just because they have been with He Ruobi. Without them, you two can't manage the military well." , Xuan Ting has a quick temper, you have to advise him on many things."

"I understand," Yang Gongdao nodded.

Yang Yinjiang also looked at Uncle Nai at the right time, and said: "From now on, don't listen to advice. If you have anything to do, discuss it with Gongdao more often, and don't always make up your own mind."

"Princess, don't worry, the general will understand," Yang Xuanting agreed happily, but both Yang Ming and his wife knew that people's tempers cannot be changed.

Fortunately, it was Yang Gongdao, if he had a tough temper, I'm afraid Yang Xuanting would start fighting with him first.

Yan Xiaotang, who has been silent all this time, is like air. Yang Ming thinks this is not good, it will make Yang Gongdao feel that his niece has no status in the palace.

So Yang Ming smiled at Yang Gongdao: "If you are dissatisfied with Xuan Ting after Gongdao, you can tell Xiaotang quietly, and Xiaotang will tell this king, and I will support you."

Yang Gongdao smiled sheepishly: "Don't dare, I know Xuan Ting's temper, he only persuades, never backbites."

How dare you?Yang Xuan grimaced.

Yang Yinjiang's mind was clear, she immediately got up and sat down beside Yan Xiaotang, holding her hand, and said with a smile:
"Your uncle is a very interesting person. He and our Li Jijiu are both regular customers of Daxing Fengyuechang. From my perspective, Xiaotang's appearance is quite similar to Gongdao's, and his nephew looks like an uncle. It's true."

After talking about the business, it's family affairs. Yang Yinjiang understood her husband's intentions, so she deliberately made Yan Xiaotang the protagonist of the dinner.

Yang Gongdao said with a smile: "Xiaotang is actually more like the second brother Yang Chen, because the second sister is the most similar to the second brother."

The second sister he was talking about was Yan Xiaotang's mother.

Yang Xiong had four daughters in total. The eldest married Li Yifang, the grandson of Li Bi, one of the Eight Pillars of the Northern Wei Dynasty, who was Li Mi's uncle.

The second child married Yan Rong's son Yan Baoshou.

The third child married Dou Lukuan, the son of Dou Lutong, Duke of Nanchen County. Dou Lukuan's mother was Yang Jian's younger sister.

The fourth child married Li Jun, who was born in Longxi Li.

They're all so well matched.

And the names of Yang Xiong's four daughters also have a strong Buddhist color, Yang Shangci, Yang Jianzhen, Yang Mengshen, and Yang Shijie.

Yan Xiaotang's mother was named Yang Jianzhen, and her name was much grander than Yan Xiaotang's.
