Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 326 Nine Doctors and Eight Lieutenants

When Yang Ming returned to the capital, it was in mid-October, and Comrade Yang Guang also arrived in Luoyang at this time. After he arranged the canal in Luoyang, he would take people back to Daxing, and then go north from Daxing to enter the border Yulin County, from here to the north to go outside the Great Wall, to inspect the tooth tents of Eastern Turks.

In history, there is no emperor who can't be idle like him. He doesn't feel hard, and he dares to go back and forth.

This is also a unique personality charm that distinguishes him from other emperors.

After returning to Beijing, Yang Ming didn't know that his father was already preparing to start another huge project.

After attacking Tuyuhun, he deliberately requisitioned half of the granaries in Henan to delay the start of the Yongji Canal. The granary is half empty right now, so it is not suitable for large-scale projects.

But what he didn't know was that Yang Guang planned to transfer an extremely terrifying amount of grain storage from Jiangnan to fill the granaries around Luoyang.

On the thirteenth day of October, Princess Yang Yinjiang was in confinement, and it was not appropriate to show up. Therefore, Yang Yue, the Minister of the Government, and his son Yang Rui, together with all the civil and military officials, welcomed Wang Shi at the Mingde Gate.

The people in the city lined the road to welcome, everyone held pots and cans, and sprinkled clean water on Zhuque Street.

The name of King Qin resounded throughout the capital, flowers paved the way, drums and music sang together, the people's love for Yang Ming, and their welcome to the soldiers of the Western Expedition turned into a city-wide carnival that night.

Within three days of the capital, the curfew was lifted, ten wine bars were set up, and the common people took their own money. A temple fair was added, presided over by the Taile Department, and 430 people from the music households set up stages in the eastern and western cities of the city, singing and dancing.

The song of the king of Qin entering the battle spread from here.

All of this was arranged by Yang Yinjiang, who was in confinement. She wanted to create momentum for her husband, but she also had to be careful, lest she go too far and be dissatisfied by the emperor.

On October [-]th, Wanchun Palace, this was the first time Yang Ming presided over a court meeting after returning to Beijing.

Today is of course a good day for meritorious deeds.

There is almost no way for the generals under his command to go up to the next level, and it is even more difficult to give a lord, especially after the restructuring, it is very clear: the merger of the scattered honors, the ministers of the auxiliary country, and the merits of Anbang, are given as appropriate.

The merger of scattered officials and honorary titles, mostly honorary elements, has no real meaning, that is, to receive an extra salary, not to mention titles, Yang Guang will not give titles casually, no longer like the Kaihuang years, where titles are everywhere.

Among the generals in this Western Expedition, Gao Jiong has no title, but it is not easy to be named. Shi Wansui is the Duke of Taiping County, Yang Xuanting is the Duke of Huainan County, Qu Tutong is the Duke of Yichuan County, Zhang Dinghe is the Marquis of Wu'an County, and Zhou Fashang is the Duke of Wu'an County. Duke Qiao.

The ones without titles are Changsun Sheng, Mai Tiezhang and Xiao Mahe.

Changsun Sheng's honor is Shangzhu Kingdom, which is now the first class. Mai Tiezhang's honor is Shangkai Fuyitong Sansi. Xiao Mahe was originally Kaifuyitong Sansi, but now it is changed to Zhengyi Doctor, because in the current Sui Dynasty, Kaifuyi and the third division are from the first rank, ranking below the three masters and three divisions.

After these lords who are still alive are dead, only Kaifu Yitong Sansi can open the government and set up staff. Yang Guang's doing this is also to weaken the private armed forces of these princes. This is definitely a very good decision.

Therefore, these generals can only reward gold and silver property, increase food and slaves, and the lords can't give them any. They are all ministers and have specific duties, so it is not easy to go up.

Then the property rewards must be generous. Anyway, Yang Ming received the news, and his father asked him to reward him casually.

So with a big wave of his hand, he allocated 20 yuan, 30 bolts of brocade, and more than [-] boxes of gold, silver and jade from the treasury to reward these eight people, and the rest of the soldiers were rewarded separately.

In addition, Su Lie was granted the rank of Suide Lieutenant of the seventh rank, guarding the palace of King Qin.

After the restructuring, the scattered officials in the Sui Dynasty were divided into nine ranks and eight lieutenants, with a total of seventeen ranks.

Su Lie's Lieutenant Suide is the seventh-rank official, and Prince Kuzhi is the official sixth-rank officer. All of them are called Shou.

Because of his meritorious service in defending the city, Wang Shuo was promoted to the governor of the Hexi Governor's Mansion and took over the military power in Hexi. It sounds really bluffing, but in fact life there is very hard.

Calculated in this way, it seems that Wang Shuo got the most benefit. Who made Wang Shuo secretly express his loyalty to Yang Ming?

Without He Ruobi, their gang of Song Guogong's henchmen naturally needed to find a backer urgently. Yang Ming wanted to take him in, so Wang Shuo couldn't wait.

At the court meeting, some people were not satisfied with Yang Ming's arrangement, such as Li Hun. He felt that Yang Ming should not reuse He Ruobi's people, which was a bit taboo.

Yang Ming directly reprimanded him with one sentence: Then who is Duke Yi's man?
After returning to the palace, Yang Ming was very busy.

Because the concubine's second child was born, and Li Xiuning's first child was also born, what made him feel very helpless was that there were two more sons.

Am I out of luck with my daughter?These are all four sons. In future generations, what kind of family can support them?

For the birth of these two sons, Yang Guang did not give them names, nor was he in a hurry to become kings, so Yang Ming, the father, could finally be the master for once.

The eldest son was Yang Rui, King of Hedong, the second son was Yang Jin, King of Xingyang, the third son was born of Yang Yinjiang, named Yang Qi, and the fourth son was born of Li Xiuning, named Yang Cong (cong).

This year is the fourth year of Daye. Yang Ming is only 21 years old and has four sons.

He couldn't be born like this again, Yang Ming calculated, according to the customs of the Sui Dynasty, he might be a grandfather before he was 40 years old.

No, the boss, Yang Rui, is already three years old, and he will be an adult in 12 years. At that time, Yang Ming was only 33 years old.
But right now, only Chen Shuyi has no children under her knees, and she is getting older, and if she does not give birth, she will be an older mother in the future, and it will be very dangerous to give birth.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How old am I? I'm only three years older than you." In the room, after learning about Yang Ming's intentions, Chen Shuyi said with a dissatisfied face, "You can have children before the age of 30, don't worry. "

Yang Ming looked surprised and said, "Weren't you in a hurry before? Why are you not in a hurry now?"

"It's an extraordinary time now," Chen Shuyi pouted, "Now that the reserve position is unknown, you should put more energy on it. Before Auntie went to Jiangdu, I told her in private that she should spend more time with Your Majesty." Say good things about you in front of me, at such a critical time, don't always think about having children."

Yang Ming said with a smile: "Be careful of self-defeating, my father has a very high mind. If there is any metaphor in Mrs. Chen's words, I will not be able to hide it from my father. Maybe he will think that I instigated Mrs. Chen to do this."

"You're the only one who is smart? Everyone else is stupid?" Chen Shuyi feigned anger and said, "Don't forget that Auntie was once the queen of a country, and there are some things that don't need to be taught by others."

"I was thinking too much," Yang Ming nodded, "In this case, whenever you want a child, tell me."

"Okay, I get it. I have to go out to see an uncle. You should visit the child more often, instead of coming to me all the time," Chen Shuyi urged Yang Ming to leave.

Yang Ming smiled helplessly and left just like that.

Later, he found Xu Jing, and in an empty room, asked the other party:
"When I was not in Beijing, what did Shuyi do?"

Xu Jingdao: "At the beginning of May, His Majesty came to Jiangdu to order that all the children of the Chen family should be returned to the capital for later use. Many of the old Chen clan have already arrived in the capital. Concubine Chen has been meeting with them recently. With Yang Zhongshu's help, many of the Chen family's children have been hired outside."

Yang Yue knew in his heart that he intended to support the Chen family, and Yang Yue happened to be assisting the government during this time, so everything went smoothly.

"Aside from that, is there anything else?" Yang Ming asked.

He felt that there was something wrong with Chen Shuyi, because there was no wife who didn't want to give birth to her husband. Was it just because she was busy taking care of the children of the family?Not likely.

When she was in Luoyang, Chen Shuyi was very eager to have a child. Every time the two had sex, they counted the days, and there were quite a few times. After all, at that time, Shuyi was somewhat lustful. It's definitely not my fault that she wasn't pregnant, otherwise, where did Yang Rui and the others come from?

Could it be that there is something wrong with Shuyi's physique?So she is avoiding it on purpose?
Xu Jing shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. I can't follow Concubine Chen when she goes out. I heard what the servants in the courtyard said later."

"Check it out carefully, keep it secret, don't allow anyone to find out, and report to me every detail," Yang Ming said in a deep voice.

Xu Jing is Yang Ming's absolute confidant. Hearing this, he was shocked and said:
"Does Your Highness think that Concubine Chen has a problem? Impossible? She was the first to follow His Highness."

"What are you thinking?" Yang Ming directly gave the other party a headache, and said with a smile: "I'm curious about what she does every day, not suspecting that there is something wrong with her."

"So that's the case?" Xu Jing said with a chuckle, "Then don't worry, Your Highness, I promise to check everything clearly."

In today's Qin Palace, Xu Jing is the steward, and has great power. As soon as the slaves and servants are all under Xu Jing's management, it will be easy for him to investigate some things.

In the evening, Yang Ming went to Jinyang Tower again because Gao Yue was there.

The Song of the King of Qin's Entrance to the Battle requires not only an arrangement, but also a choreography, involving dozens of musical instruments, which is very cumbersome and complicated, so Gao Yue has been living in Jinyang Tower since Yang Ming's expedition to the west.

She already had a group of maids who were good at dancing and music, but it was not enough, so Yang Yinjiang transferred thirty musicians who were proficient in Qing Shang music from the Tai Yue Department to assist Gao Yue.

At present, the Qin King’s Entrance Song, 12-person dance music and 24-person dance music have been spread in the capital, but Yang Yinjiang did not dare to take out the 68-person dance music and the largest 120-person dance music because it is too ostentatious. up.

But the choreography was already done. As soon as Yang Ming arrived at Jinyang Tower, Gao Yue immediately arranged for someone to perform in front of Yang Ming.

Cymbals, festival drums, waist drums, harps, pipas, bells, pans, shengs, and Xiaos are all included, and all maikos are carefully selected, young women who are both heroic and beautiful , the singer's voice is also unique, loud and angry.

Of course, the leading dancer is a male performer, after all, he is playing the role of King Qin.

The whole process makes the viewers feel as if they are really on the battlefield of the army, with the drums beating and the rhythm fast.

It's too ostentatious. With Dad's great achievements, he absolutely does not allow such grand and exciting dance music to be used to praise others.

Yang Ming smiled wryly again and again, did he play a little too big?

So he waved everyone away early, and took Gao Yue to a box alone,
"I'll give you another task, you come to arrange the music."

Gao Yue was stunned: "What task?"

"Sui Emperor Tour Song," Yang Ming said with a wry smile, "I'll give you three months to compose it."
