Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 535 Big Fish Eat Small Fish

Yang Ming didn't know if Wang Bo was gone, but the rebel Meng Rang and his 36 thieves were escorted to Beijing.

Those who deal with rebellion have always been convicted of the greatest crimes, and naturally they are also sentenced to death.

Anyway, be as cruel as you want, otherwise, you won't be able to deter the world.

As long as people in the world feel that the fate of rebellion is so miserable, they will not dare to rebel easily.

There has not been a precedent for the Zhu Jiu clan so far, but Meng Rang's immediate family members must be finished, and the Yi clan cannot escape.

Since the advent of the Chinese criminal law, until the present seven years of Daye, no one has been punished by the nine clans, because the first person in history to be punished by the nine clans was Comrade Yang Xuangan. According to historical records, 6000 people were implicated by him, and He was killed and six thousand were exiled.

But in this life, the possibility of his rebellion is extremely slim.

According to historical description, the reason why Xuangan rebelled was because Yang Guang said a word after Yang Su's death: If Su is not dead, the barbarians belong to the nine tribes.

It means, even if Yang Su doesn't die, I will kill him from the Nine Clans.

When these words reached Xuangan's ears, the seeds of hatred had already been planted in his heart. Furthermore, it was true that Yang Su died of illness, but during his serious illness, Yang Guang sent the imperial physician to visit him every day, somewhat hoping that he would sooner. In order to protect the family, Yang Su voluntarily gave up treatment, and died prematurely.

And Yang Yue in history was also planted in Yang Guang's hands, and Yang Xuangan has a very deep relationship with Yang Yue's uncle and nephew.

My father and my uncle were both brought down by the same person. Yang Xuangan naturally wanted to avenge this revenge, but the Hongnong Yang family has never recognized Yang Jian's branch very much, so Xuan felt that you can be an emperor if you are unorthodox , so can I be an orthodox Hongnong Yang?

So he rebelled, and the momentum was huge. Li Mi gave him three strategies at the time, and he chose the worst strategy. Can't move.

At that time, Fan Zigai, who was guarding Luoyang, tried his best to hold Xuangan back. When Hu'er and Wei Xuan came to attack, Yu Wenshu and Qu Tutong arrived, and Yang Xuangan was finally defeated and killed.

If Xuangan went to fight the capital at that time, and he still couldn't beat him, then it will be recorded in history that Li Mi cheated him, and it would not be like now that Xuangan didn't listen to Li Mi, which led to his defeat.

If Li Mizhen had this ability, he would not be severely injured by Yu Wenhua and lost to Wang Shichong. Compared with Lai Huer Yu Wenshu and the others, they are not at the same level.

All are heroes made by the times.

The number of victories and defeats is not clear at all. If we really want to delve into the defeat of Xuangan, the main reason is that the defeat was due to the inappropriate timing of the rebellion.

The main force of the Sui army just went to Liaodong, not all of them died. You are irrational to rebel at this time.

But in this life, under Yang Ming's step-by-step arrangements, the hidden dangers of Xuangan have almost been completely eliminated. Even if Xuangan is really unhappy with Yang Guang, he will not rebel in this life.

The East Palace belongs to their family with the greatest power. This was deliberately arranged by Yang Ming, firstly to be obedient, and secondly to stabilize the sense of mystery.

After a brief discussion at the court meeting, Meng Rang's punishment was determined.

Yang Ming still doesn't know what's going on in Goguryeo, but he knows about what's going on in Shandong.

The samurai Xun is capable. Not long after he went to Shandong, he reduced the price of local grain by half. Of course, it was still much higher than before the expedition to Liaodong.

The most commendable thing is that he is willing to give food to the people on credit. Don't think that only the court dares to renege on the debt. Although the common people have no guts to renege on the debt, they have the heart to renege on the debt, and they don't want to pay it back.

And the samurai Xun thought it out from the beginning, if he really wanted to renege on his debt, he would not pursue it, because his purpose was to appease Shandong, not to lend usury.

A businessman like this is public loyalty to the country.

So in recent days, every time Yang Miaozhi followed Yang Jianzhen to the East Palace to visit Yan Xiaotang, whenever Yang Ming met, he would praise her future husband, which made Yang Miaozhi very happy.

It is a good thing that the crown prince can appreciate him more, and the road to honoring him in the future will be much smoother.

Li Jiancheng is very famous now, although he is not a big official, he is just a guest servant, but he can follow the prince's ass every day, have his bowl for eating, his cup for drinking, and can participate in state affairs, just like a confidant.

"Mr. Chu didn't do this. Their family is not short of money." Sitting in the hall, Li Jiancheng frowned after reading a report that Yang Ming threw him, "It should be the people under their family who are messing around." , has nothing to do with Duke Chu."

Samurai Xun is a shrewd man, he knows what to say and what not to say about things in Shandong, but Zhang Xutuo is now in a critical period when he is about to join the prince's family, so he will report everything.

Yang Xuangan's family, someone took advantage of the fire to rob and buy land at a low price in Shandong. Zhang Xutuo was too good at Xuangan, so he didn't dare to stop him, so he reported it to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming smiled: "I didn't restrain the people below. Mystery is also to blame. The warrior Xun was in front of me to comfort me, but his people were behind me. I just turned a blind eye and didn't know what they were going to do." Come on."

Li Jiancheng nodded. His family also merged land. In fact, all the rich and powerful families were doing this.

If they are caught, they will push the blame to the people below and let them take the blame. After the limelight passes, they will be transferred to another person to continue doing this, so Li Jiancheng knows very well that the annexation of land in Shandong must have been instructed by Yang Xuangan, but he Can't say that.

Because their family did the same thing, the owner is innocent, it's all the people from below messing around.

Yang Ming is definitely not in a hurry to deal with this matter now, because the annexation of the land is mainly for the landowners, and the few acres of land under the common people's name are mysteriously looked down upon.

When will it be dealt with?Wait for Xuangan to eat fat.

This means that big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimps. Xuangan annexes the landlord's fields below. When he annexes a certain amount, Yang Ming will take them all. After taking them, he will re-grant the land to the people.

It was as if Xuangan had cheated the landlord, but Yang Ming justifiably confiscated all the problematic land from the state treasury, and then redistributed it. After several rounds of maneuvering, the land finally fell into the hands of the common people. This is a good thing.

Although the common people will be annexed by the landlords in the future, the landlords will be annexed by the aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families will be annexed by the aristocrats, and they will fall into a vicious circle again.

But Yang Ming has already planned to reform the farmland. Although major changes cannot be made, otherwise the interests of the aristocratic family will be affected, small changes are imminent.

Yang Ming said with a smile: "Xuangan donated food to Shandong, so he definitely wouldn't do such a thing. You are right. It should be the people under him who are doing something wrong. I will send someone down to investigate."

Li Jiancheng nodded and changed the subject: "His Royal Highness is already eight years old, can he choose a marriage?"

Yang Ming was stunned and said, "What? What does your family mean?"

Li Jiancheng chuckled: "Who doesn't mean that in the rich family of Guanzhong? Our family does have a girl of the right age, but her father passed away early, and the family is not worthy of a son."

Do you know that you are not worthy and still open this mouth?Yang Ming asked with a smile, "Which one?"

Li Jiancheng hurriedly said: "My second uncle, Li Zhan, left behind two sons and a daughter, all of whom are raised in my house, the first son Li Boyi, the first daughter Li Xiaoshan, the second son Li Fengci, Xiaoshan is 12 years old this year, four years older than the eldest son, beautiful and dignified, well educated. "

Li Yuan was the fourth eldest child in his family. It was impossible for him to take the title of Lord Tang, but he was so lucky that all three elder brothers died.

The eldest brother, Li Cheng, died young and had no heirs. The second brother, Li Zhan, also died after leaving behind two sons and a daughter. The third child still died young, so Tang Guogong fell on Li Yuan's head.

It can be seen that there is something wrong with the genes of their old Li family.

Aside from the fact that Dugu Jialuo is Li Yuan's aunt, this Tang Guogong must have been attacked by someone in Li Yuan's family, because this title comes from Li Hu, one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms of the Western Wei Dynasty, who is a core member of the Guanlong noble group.

Yang Ming finally understood, no wonder Jian Jiancheng said he was not good enough for Yang Rui, a little girl without parents is just a grass.

"I used to go to your house often, why haven't I seen these three?"

Jian Jiancheng replied: "Aniang doesn't like it, so she is raised in another courtyard and rarely comes out to meet guests."

Dou is definitely not happy to raise three outsiders for nothing, but if Li Yuan doesn't raise them, who will raise them?The three elder brothers are all dead, can he ignore it?

The Duke of the state is under attack, so he can't raise three nephews?
Yang Ming said with a smile: "I can't decide about the matter of the son. The father and the emperor will decide later. It's useless for you to tell me."

Li Jiancheng sighed when he heard the words: "My sister's life is suffering, I feel very distressed, I have always thought about finding a good family for her in the future, but today I suddenly remembered it, so I mentioned it to Your Highness, in fact, I didn't have any hope."

Yang Ming deliberately asked, "How about her two older brothers?"

Li Jiancheng was stunned: "How do you know that His Highness is an elder brother?"

"Nonsense!" Yang Ming rolled his eyes and said, "Your father took the title 12 years ago. Could it be possible that your second uncle can still have children after his death?"

Li Jiancheng hurriedly smirked and said: "I thought His Highness had a clever plan. His two elder brothers are overly favored by my grandfather and have a somewhat domineering personality. They are all useless things."

If you are not successful, you have to thank others, because in history, after you were killed by Shimin, it was Li Huairen, the son of Li Boyi, who succeeded you.

Your son died at the hands of your brother.

Yang Ming nodded: "You have this idea, or Tang Guogong? Don't fool me."

"Hey!" Jiancheng said with a smirk again: "The prince is a clever planner. It was indeed my grandpa's idea. I thought it would be difficult to handle at the time, but grandpa insisted on letting me try."

This is the difference between you and your father. Only when things are hard to do are done, is it important to do big things. If you don't do things when you know it's hard to do, you will end up doing nothing.

Yang Ming smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about this matter. If your father wants to, ask him to tell His Majesty that although I am a father, I can't decide Yang Rui's affairs."

After all, Yang Rui is not the prince's son, he is the eldest son of the prince and the future successor.
