Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 545 Double Eyelids

Yu Wenhuaji killed 3 people in Hebei, and Yu Juluo dared not speak out. If Gao Jiong was still alive, he could still count on Gao Jiong to do it. It would be too offensive to rely on him alone.

Because everyone can see that when Yu Wenhua came to Hebei, he took the heads of Hebei people and accumulated meritorious service. His father had just made a great contribution. At this time, no one would feel uncomfortable and compete with Yu Wenshu.

Yu Juluo has been in charge of Hebei for many years. Although he is the prefect of Xindu in name, once there is a war in Hebei, the court will think of him first, so he has a high prestige in Hebei, just like Zhang Xutuo in Shandong. .

Yu Wenhuaji led his troops into Xindu, Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong continued to lead their troops south. They wanted to sift through the southern boundary of Xindu County like a sieve. All the deserters and civilian husbands who escaped from the front line will be settled after autumn.

"You can't do this," Yu Juluo kindly persuaded in the lobby: "The chaos in Hebei has stabilized now, and there are some things that need to be turned a blind eye. Smart move."

Yu Wenhuaji smiled and said: "Gao Tang's wife's benevolence, traitors are like moths, eroding our mountains and rivers. If you don't cut them off, you may die again. You are too soft-hearted, which made the chaos in Hebei so big."

I am your mother, you killed someone, patted your ass and left, but I am still in Hebei, when the time comes, all the grievances of the people will come at me, you are hurting the sky, why am I carrying the grievances of heaven and people?
Yu Juluo hehe said: "Some people have nowhere to go and were bewitched by traitors to get here. Your Majesty has the virtue of loving the people. I'm afraid His Majesty will not be happy if you kill so indiscriminately."

Yu Wenhuaji grinned: "I don't want to come either, don't I want to go back to the capital? Mr. Gao Tang, I'm here to wipe your ass, don't be ignorant of good people."

Good guy, you little bastard dare to talk to me like that?When I was serving Emperor Gaozu, why didn't you know where you were? You are a dog, relying on your father, how arrogant are you?
Yu Juluo is not a good-tempered person either, and got up angrily when he heard this:

"Before your Majesty's expedition, you granted me the right to act as an envoy in Hebei, and I will send people to recover Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong. Don't you want to go back to the capital? Please go back as soon as possible."

Yu Wenhuaji also stood up abruptly: "Don't use that little scepter to appoint me. I am the Hebei Chuzhi arrest ambassador personally appointed by His Majesty. You are now my Jiedu, Yujuluo, your brother's lesson from the past, don't forget .”

Yu Juluo suddenly became furious: "You dare to threaten me?"

"Don't dare, you are the county magistrate," Yu Wenhuaji said with a smile, "Go ahead and do whatever you want. The affairs of Hebei are up to me now."

Yu Juluo squinted his eyes, and said with a sneer, "I have no respect for elders, relying on Mr. Xu to be so domineering, Yu Wenhuaji, let me see when you will finish."

After finishing speaking, Yu Juluo waved his sleeves and left.

If you can’t persuade Yu Wenhuaji, then go and persuade the other two, I’m sitting in Hebei, you’ve made me full of holes, this mess, how will I deal with it in the future?

If there is another accident in Hebei, the imperial court will only blame me.

Yu Juluo sees it very clearly, he just wants to protect himself, and he can't let them go on like this.

So he took people out of the city directly, and went south to find the other two stewards.

Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong both had higher prestige in the army than Yu Wenhuaji, but their ranks were the same, the difference was that they both relied on their ancestors plus their own strength, while Yu Wenhuaji relied entirely on his father.

Yu Wenhuaji was not convinced that such two people were allowed to fight against Yu Huaji, so after going south, they have been perfunctory.

Countering the rebellion, there is no more rebellion, and now it is just killing civilians, which is not a big deal, but the risk is not small.

The two armies divided into [-] routes to go south, while Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong walked slowly at the end, similar to traveling, they were tired from fighting Goguryeo, and the two of them are not very interested in countering the rebellion now. Meet up from time to time and have a few drinks together.

Shi Xiang is a member of Yang Guang, and his younger brother Shi Yun is the prefect of Donglai County, and has a close relationship with Zhang Xutuo. The two brothers are the sons of Situ Shining in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and they are also prominent for generations.

Historically, Shi Xiang followed Yang Guang to fight against Goguryeo, was defeated miserably, and was dismissed as a citizen. Later, the prefect of Baiyan County, one of the three counties in the north of the Liaoxi Corridor, a place where birds don’t shit, was later beaten down by Gao Kaidao. Treating him as a courtesy, he sent someone to send Shi Xiang to Zhuojun, where he died on the way.

He is a relatively cautious person. After meeting Qu Tutong this time, he began to chat:
"The soldiers under our command are half from Guanzhong and half from Shanxi. To be honest, the soldiers will not be able to do this kind of killing in Hebei."

These three places had a very deep connection in ancient China. The big families in the three places also married most frequently, especially Shanxi and Guanzhong, which were brothers separated by the Yellow River.

The four major surnames in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Fanyang Lu, Qinghe Cui, Xingyang Zheng, and Taiyuan Wang, had crazy marriages between these four families, and they were constantly involved, thus linking the close relationship between Shanxi and Hebei.

However, since the rise of the Guanlong Group, the status of Hebei has not been good, mainly because of Cui Hao's "Prison of National History" incident during the Northern Wei Dynasty. Several big families in Shanxi and Hebei were all implicated in it, and their vitality was seriously injured.

Right now, the people in Guanzhong are still able to deal with the people in Hebei, but not in Shanxi. The people in Shanxi are unwilling to kill Hebei people, especially civilians.

Ordinary soldiers are also of civilian origin.

"Oh, this job is really difficult," Qu Tutong had a very good relationship with Yang Ming a long time ago, because he would be the head of the guards of Yong'an Palace, and Yang Ming went to Yong'an Palace every day.

"Hold your hands high. I haven't slept well these few nights. Killing barbarians is no problem on my side, but killing ordinary people, alas, I'm afraid of committing crimes. I'm afraid that future generations will also suffer karma. On the side of the prince, we It’s not easy to explain.”

To be the head of the imperial guards for Dugu Jialuo must be a Buddhist. As a military general, Qu Tutong killed people every day, but he was a little bit uneasy about killing people like this right now.

I didn't kill like this in Goguryeo.

Shi Xiang frowned and said: "There are too many civilian husbands and deserters who escaped from the front line. Many of them actually returned home honestly and did nothing. For these people, we can let them go. As for those who follow the rebels to ravage the surrounding area, it’s okay to kill the leaders, I don’t plan to kill like this, it’s up to you.”

"We coincidentally agree with each other," Qu Tutong said happily.

In any case, the two of them were sent by Yang Guang to assist Yu Wenhua and counter the rebellion. If they were treated perfunctorily, they would be afraid of taking the blame. Now Shi Xiang is willing to share the burden, and Qu Tutong is naturally happy:
"You are not familiar with the prince, and you don't understand our prince's temperament. As far as what we are doing now, when we return to the capital, I am afraid that the prince will deal with it severely. It is too late to stop in time."

The corner of Shi Xiang's mouth twitched, he was very afraid of the prince, even though he was the emperor's man, but if the prince is determined to deal with anything now, the emperor has never stopped him.

Today's prince is not just a display. His power has grown, and he is under one person in all parts of Kyushu.

"That's easy to say. If the crown prince asks for a crime, we will push it on Yu Wenhuaji. This kid will become more and more defiant because of Yu Wenshu." Shi Xiang said, "The crown prince and their family have never dealt with each other. I want to see it. If Yu Wenhuaji goes back this time, can he get his wish and be granted a duke."

Qu Tutong thought for a while and said, "The crown prince won't be able to pass that test, let alone the duke, don't even think about the marquis."

At this time, the guards outside came to report, and the male Yuju from Gaotang County came.

Shi Xiang frowned suddenly: "What is he doing here? Urging us to put down the rebellion?"

Qu Tutong shook his head: "Not necessarily. I have met him in the palace before. He is a cautious and prudent man. His younger brother is not born with his parents at all. Let's see what he says."

After a while, Yu Juluo came in in a hurry, and the seat reserved for him, the prepared food and drinks were also kicked over by him:
"What do you two want to do?"

Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong looked at each other subconsciously, and said in surprise:
"Where did you get so angry?"

Yu Juluo said angrily: "You guys killed people in Hebei, slapped your ass and left after you killed, wiped the shit on my face, and withdrew immediately, otherwise I will sue all three of you with a memorandum, including Yu Wenhuaji .”

The reason why he got so angry was because on the way here, he saw Shi Xiang's soldiers and horses transporting carts of corpses to a wilderness, dug a big pit, and buried them on the spot.

Seeing this, Yu Juluo's lungs were about to explode, and when he came in, he scolded the two of them.

Qu Tutong said with an ugly face: "Don't get angry at us, we also follow orders, who would want to do such immoral things, you can go to Yu Wenhuaji."

"He doesn't listen to me," Yu Juluo sat down angrily, and said to the two of them, "But you two have been through accidents for a long time, how can you do it?"

Shi Xiang hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, don't get angry, the two of us have discussed it just now, and then we will deal with it carefully, and we will not kill if we can."

"Are you still planning to kill?" Yu Juluo said: "If you continue to kill, if Hebei is reversed, if I lose my head, I will also drag you three."

Qu Tutong said with a chuckle: "If you can't talk about Yu Wenhuaji, come and scold us, we are so fucking angry."

"That's just right!" Yu Juluo said, "The three of us jointly signed a petition to request Your Majesty to let you withdraw from Hebei."

After pondering for a while, Shi Xiang said, "Okay, you take the lead, and we both write our names."

"Inappropriate!" Qu Tutong hurriedly raised his hand: "If you want to get rid of the relationship, it's better to join hands."

After all, Qu Tutong gave Shi Xiang a wink: Don't you grasp the ready-made opportunity to dump the pot?
Shi Xiang is also an old fox, and immediately understood: "Okay, joint name is joint name."

Yang Guang is not a fool either, so many people wandered around Shanxi with him, they could eat all the bark in Shanxi, so they can go back, Yang Guang has ordered them to return to the camps of the ministries in advance, and reward money and pensions to find the prince.

He is not embarrassing his son. In fact, Yu Zhongwen has already taken You Yiwei to escort Goguryeo's harvest on the road. As long as he arrives, the plight of the court's lack of money will be solved in an instant.

Besides, there is Tu Wanxu hanging at the rear of the car, who has already begun to sell Goguryeo captives. The captives are also valued for their quality. If they are strong, strong, beautiful, have good skin, and double eyelids, they will definitely be sold. good price.

Goguryeo plus Silla Baekje, the aborigines in that place all have single eyelids, this matter is more complicated, there are two versions,
One is that the place is the ancient Asian race, and the Central Plains is the new Asian race, and about 3 years ago, the new Asian race had a massacre on the ancient Asian race, so that the ancient Asian race All of them hid in remote areas of Northeast Asia.

The second theory is that there is a "Mongolian high pressure" in the Mongolian plateau and the Tunguska region, which is one of the largest sources of cold current in the world. Affected by the cold air going south, the eyes of Mongolians and Northeast Asians have become single-folded eyelids for protection eyeball.

As for which statement is reliable, I don’t know. Anyway, as long as Goguryeo sees double eyelids, it is the descendant of the Central Plains people, and it can be sold for a good price.

People, like mules and horses, have become commodity goods, and they are taken to the market for sale, and the Shanxi area buys them first.

Yang Guang was in Jinyang to celebrate the New Year, and he didn't plan to leave after the New Year. After all, he was tired after traveling for a year, and had a minor illness, so he had to stay in Jinyang for a long time to recuperate.

Yang Guang also saw the joint memorial of the three of Yu Juluo and the others, so it can be withdrawn, as long as Hebei is safe and sound. Only he and the officials of the lower province know.

At this time, it is impossible for Yang Guang to question Yu Wenhuaji.

The capital, Yu Zhongwen came back, because he came back with money, so Guan Wang Yang Xiong went to Chang'an Station to meet him in person.

Yang Xiong took the other party's hand and said with a smile: "Ciwu (Yu Zhongwen) has made great achievements this time, and his name will go down in history. Don't take a carriage. Let's ride on Zhuque Street. The people all over the city are waiting to welcome you."

Yu Zhongwen laughed and said, "I'm sorry Wang Yuanying, I'm ashamed to take on the responsibility, I just tried my best, the main thing is Your Majesty's strategy."

After all, he was one of the main generals who attacked Pyongyang, and his credit was only due to Yu Wenshuhe's protection. Naturally, he also had to sprinkle water to clean the streets and decorate them with colorful brocades.

The common people lined the road to welcome him, and Yu Zhongwen, who was sitting on the horse, was also feeling refreshed.

People live for a lifetime, what do they want to do, isn't it just to achieve success and fame?
As a generation of lords like him, who was born in the Xianbei family, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing.

Yu Zhongwen couldn't help but feel a little bit emotional. When he left Beijing last time, the crown prince gave him a stern warning, which made him quite worried. Now that he has returned with honor, he feels relieved.

"The prince is in the palace?" Yu Zhongwen asked.

Yang Xiong smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you at the door of Suzaku."

Yu Zhongwen was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Oh, how can I be greeted by the prince personally, let's go quickly."

Brotherhood, that's all for today, please forgive me, because I'm going to play football in the afternoon, the lumbar intervertebral disc has herniated, if I don't exercise a little bit, I will be useless, forgive me.
