Emperor Sui Yang

After the conciliator, a group of young generals entered the hall.

Among them, Su Lie deserved the most credit, because Gao Dayang was captured by him, and the most dazzling one was Yang Yuanqing. What this kid did in the front line was secretly operated by his father, and it has long been rumored that it is miraculous. .

What kind of horse enters the enemy's line with a single gun, and Yang Dalang immediately hits the knife and so on.

But having said that, the expedition to Goguryeo was indeed the boy who stole the biggest limelight, but he took his life to steal it. Yang Su's grandson, leading the way, is not easy.

Of course Yang Guang is very happy. If your family dares to procrastinate and fail to go to the battlefield, I will definitely punish you, but if you are willing to work hard, I will not treat you poorly.

So Yang Guang directly rewarded Yang Yuanqing with a new official position: General Huwei, the fifth rank, belonging to Zuo Beishenfu, plus the fourth rank of the [-]th rank of martial arts: Guardian, which is also the fifth rank.

So from now on, you can call Yang Yuanqing General Yang or Yang Hujun. Of course, you can also be called Yuan Qing, it depends on whether he agrees or not.

After all, Yang Yuanqing came from a good family background, so around him, the officials at the court chatted for a long time, basically praising him for being brave and fearless, and Duke Chu had successors.

In fact, it was for the sake of Yang Xuan, Yang Yue, Yang Wensi and the others.

Su Lie, who made the most contribution, was the second to receive the reward instead, there is no way, he has no father in court.

"Su Lie, Su Dingfang, you captured the enemy's commander, how do you expect me to reward you?" Yang Guang said, looking at Su Lie with a smile.

The other party belonged to his son, as long as he dared to speak, Yang Guang would dare to agree, but Yang Guang also knew that the other party did not dare to open his mouth like a lion.

Su Lie half-kneeled on the ground: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the humble position only knows to report military favors, not to ask for rewards, and it is the duty of ministers to go into battle and kill the enemy."

"Hey~~~This is not a place for you to be modest," Yang Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty wants to reward you, so you have to say what you want, my son in the army, don't learn from those vain people, I heard you kid His regular wife is Pei Renji's daughter?"

Su Lie hurriedly said: "Go back to Yang Gong, it is true."

Pei Xingyan, who was standing next to Su Lie, was already getting nervous. His younger sister married Su Lie, so that their family was often laughed at.

It's all right now, Su Lie has made meritorious service, if he can be named a lord, he will be able to straighten up in the future.

"Is there such a thing?" Yang Guang pretended to be stupid.

Yang Guang didn't care who Su Dingfang married, but it was necessary to know who Pei Renji's daughter married.

Yang Xuangan laughed and said: "As the saying goes, good things last forever. Su Lie was born in a humble background. Under the help of the prince, he was able to marry Pei Renji's daughter-in-law. I heard that Pei Renji was often laughed at because of this. Comforted."

Yang Guang snorted coldly: "My warrior, who dares to make fun of him?"

Pei Ju was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "There are differences in family status, it's normal in the world, no one in the Pei family would laugh at Su Lie, let alone read Pei Renji's jokes, and we can't control what outsiders say."

He is like pushing things away. There are no jokes in our family, it's just outsiders who make irresponsible remarks.

"I don't like this kind of common sense," Yang Guang said in a deep voice, "a good woman matches a good man, it's been like this since ancient times."

After all, Yang Guang looked at Su Lie: "If you have any difficulties, just tell me, and I will make the decision for you."

The subtext is that you are not only my son's man, but also my man.

After all, Su Lie was still young, so he didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind, so he said honestly:
"There is no difficulty in a humble position. Your Majesty is so kind, and a humble position cannot be repaid by death."

You don't know how to speak even if you have a chance. The prince has a good eye. I like such a person.

Yang Xuangan took the opportunity to say: "Dingfang's house was rewarded by the crown prince. Its humbleness is not enough for the capital to gain a foothold. I think it would be better to give the house to your Majesty to show the mighty grace of the emperor."

In fact, Yang Guang knew about Su Lie, and Yang Hao also knew when he went to the camp to kidnap people. People always pretended not to know, but it was just a trick of the king, just to let those who thought they could hide it from him show their feet.

Cautious people like Pei Ju Yang Yue, because they are close ministers, they know very well that the emperor knows far more than they imagined, so they will be more careful when doing things.

But some people don't know that if they are lucky and think that they can hide Yang Guang, they are very wrong.

The matter of Yang Hao being humiliated in the camp was related to the face of the clan. The crown prince and Lao Pei's family were suppressed to death, so the movement was not too big. Yang Guang, who was in Luoyang at the time, happily pretended not to know.

Of course, almost everyone who is at the court meeting today knows about that matter, but everyone will not spread it to the outside world, because it will offend others.

Since Yang Xuangan hoped that he would give Su Lie the house, Yang Guang went along with the flow and said:

"Canonize Su Lie Wen'an County Marquis, eat three hundred households, grant a Marquis Mansion, and ten BMWs."

Su Lie was stunned for a moment, and in the ecstasy of his heart, he forgot to thank him. It was his elder brother Pei Xingyan who was equally excited beside him who gave him an elbow, and then he came back to his senses and hurriedly thanked him.

A commoner can be appointed as a marquis, unless he has made great achievements. Yang Guang is happy to do this, because it provides hope for all generals like Su Lie who were born as civilians.

To put it bluntly, you are fooling ordinary soldiers. It is true that Su Lie was born as a commoner, but his backer is the prince, and the credit for not having a backer cannot fall on you.

Feng Hou, this is the title, Yang Guang returned the actual position, which was the position recommended by Yang Ming at the beginning, left and right Yi Wei's main force elite, Xiao cavalry commander Shi.

Yang Ming's recommendation at the beginning was a temporary arrangement for the army to go on an expedition, and now Yang Guang has confirmed it.

In other words, Su Lie is currently the chief general of one of the six main forces of the Sui Dynasty. Of course, with six direct leaders on his head, it is not easy to do.

Next, Pei Xingyan, Yang Wanshi, Laizheng, Shi Wanbao, Pang Ben, Shi Wanshou, Guo Siben, Mai Zhongcai, Mai Jicai, Xue Zuo, etc. all had rewards, but none was bigger than Su Lie.

On the way to the south of the Sui army, there were four commanders and two generals in Goguryeo. Ranked according to their power, they should be Eulji Mundeok, Yeon Taejo, Gao Jianmu, and Gao Dayang, and the commanders would be Zhongshiwei and Yanman.

Among them, Yeon Tae-jo of the domestic city is actually the highest official rank, but Ulji Mun-deok, as the highest military commander north of Pyongyang, has a higher rank than Yeon Tae-jo in this war.

Six people, two dead and two captives, Ulji Wende was executed privately by Mai Tiezhang without credit, Zhong Shiwei died in the hands of Duan Ji who was sent to support by Xue Shixiong, Gao Dayang was captured by Su Lie, Yan Man He was captured by Xin Shixiong.

But Duan Jie and Xin Shixiong stayed at the headquarters and did not come to receive the reward, while Yang Guang liked to present the reward in person.

Then there is only Mai Tiezhang left, and he has already arrived in Liaodong.

As soon as Mai Tiezhang came in, a servant placed a cushion in the middle:
"Director Mai has made great contributions to the country, His Majesty bestows a seat."

Mai Tiezhang was flattered, and hurriedly said: "I am at fault, so I dare not sit down."

Yang Guang smiled and said fondly, "Sit down."

Mai Tiezhang, who was familiar with the emperor's character, no longer refused, and just sat down.

Anyone can see that Yang Guang is very kind to Mai Tiezhang, so everyone is saying some words of comfort. Zhao, Li Yuan died and Li Jiancheng was a very big blow.

Because the cultivation of the eldest son is different from other sons, and the emotions involved are also different.

Yang Guang has a deep understanding of the pain of losing a child: "My fourth brother has a daughter who is in her prime of life, so she bestows her in marriage as a token of comfort."

Many of the children of the fourth child, Yang Xiu, are not yet married. Yang Guang will definitely keep Yang Xiu in custody, but for the children, it doesn't matter, because there is no threat.

Mai Tiezhang was so moved that he wept, tears running down his face, and said: "I come from a humble background, how can I be a son of a dog, how can I be worthy of the nobles of the royal family."

Now Yang Guang was stunned, Yang Xiu has been abolished, and his daughter is not the head of the county, so what is there to talk about?
But Mai Tiezhang had already said this, Yang Guang could only push the boat along, he knew that Mai Tiezhang's words were unintentional.

In the Sui Dynasty, marrying a princess, princess, or county master was called Shang, the emperor's daughter was a princess, the prince's daughter was a princess, and the prince's daughter was a county master.

Why must it be Shang?Because not all daughters can be canonized, Yang Guang himself has concubine daughters who have not been canonized as princesses, but those who are canonized are basically descendants.

It can be seen how serious the difference between the concubine and the concubine was in the Sui Dynasty, and it was all due to Dugu Jialuo.

Yang Xiu has seven sons and four daughters, but only one daughter is a concubine. Yang Guang originally planned to give Mai Zhongcai a concubine.

Mai Tiezhang is also a blind cat pretending to be a dead mouse. An unintentional remark that his son will marry Yang Xiu's daughter-in-law in the future can be regarded as an unintentional planting of willows and willows. Mai Zhongcai's descendants will be tainted with royal blood.

Yang Guang said with a smile: "Canonize Yang Xiu's eldest daughter as the head of Anfeng County, and bestow Mai Zhongcai as the head of the county."

Yang Yue and Xuan Gan looked at each other, and they also saw that Mai Tiezhang was lucky. Although she was Yang Xiu's daughter, she was also the blood of the second sage. The royal family of the Sui Dynasty was orthodox.Born in fishing and hunting.

Mai Tiezhang kept crying and kowtowed to thank him, Yu Wenshu hurried forward to help him:
"It's all my fault. As the general manager, my improper command caused Dalang's death in battle. There are public complaints, and I am willing to accept them."

In front of the emperor, what can Mai Tiezhang say?can only say:

"Unjustly wrong."

Ever since Yu Wenshu came back, he kept admitting his mistakes and took all the responsibility on himself, because he knew that Duan Wenzhen would be back soon.

When he comes back, the Ministry of War will review the entire process of the war in detail, and the Secretary of the Provincial Taishi Cao will record the entire process and list it as official history.

Instead of letting others find out his faults, it is better to admit his mistakes early. After all, a correct attitude can also reduce the crime.

The officials in the Sui Dynasty who were responsible for recording historical events and compiling historical books did not know how to cheat, and Yang Guang couldn't control what they wrote.

The officials in this department are very special. They will not flatter the emperor. They dare to write about the immoral things the emperor has done, but they will beautify and succinctly.

How many people died in the construction of Luoyang and the construction of the canal? I will remember it for you there. How can it be concise?Take it with me.

Behind one line of words are hundreds of thousands of lives.

Yang Guang didn't care much about this, because he felt that his credit far outweighed his fault, and future generations would only praise him and not scold him.

If Yang Ming survived and the Sui Dynasty survived, Yang Guang's title after his death would definitely not be "Yang". In fact, this title already existed before Yang Guang, and it was bestowed by Yang Guang himself.

That's right, it's the poor Chen Shubao.

The difference is that in history, Yang Guang was posthumously "Yang" as an emperor, and Chen Shubao was posthumously "Yang" as a county official. (end of this chapter)
