Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 64
One month later, when summer came, Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo moved to Renshou Palace.

Renshou Palace was established in the 13th year of the emperor. Yang Jian ordered Yu Wenkai to plan and design it, and appointed Deyi as civil supervisor. It took two years and three months to build a summer resort in Linyou Town, Fufeng County, [-] miles northwest of Daxi City. palace.

After the completion, every summer, Yang Jian and his wife will go to Fufeng County to escape the summer heat.

There were nearly a hundred officials accompanying him, so that Yang Jian could still handle political affairs in Renshou Palace.

The crown prince Yang Yong, who stayed in Daxing, will be in charge of the court, and the daily court meeting will be held in the East Palace instead.

After Yang Jian left like this, the imperial guards who stayed in Daxing City seemed to be on vacation. They either fished in the guards, or got into some gambling house and brothel to have fun.

Those who are still honestly maintaining law and order in the city are less than one-third of what Yang Jian was when he was there.

The Prince's Mansion in Hedong is already under construction. As for the distribution of the Prince's Mansion, according to regulations, Zongzheng Temple will make a list and pay directly from the palace's inner treasury.

Among them, there are [-] coins, [-] horses, and [-] carts.

Two hundred pairs of Mingguang iron armor, two hundred pairs of fine scale armor, two hundred pairs of chain mail, two thousand pairs of infantry armor, and two thousand pairs of leather armor.

Five hundred horse spears, five hundred mo knives, five hundred crested axes, five hundred horizontal knives, five hundred long spears, five hundred pairs of harnesses, and two hundred pairs of horse body armor.Two hundred pumpkin hammers.

Two hundred pairs of step bows, two hundred pairs of longbows, two hundred pairs of step crossbows, and three thousand arrows each.

In addition, there are screens, beds, door plaques, silk, jewelry, and various gold, silver and copper products rewarded by Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo.

Putting everything together, Yang Ming's new palace can be fully decorated.

Build the house first and build the treasury. News came from Hedong County that the palace treasury had been built, and the people sent by the Ministry of Industry had recruited [-] slaves for Yang Ming.

The men among the house slaves were responsible for the farming of the palace and some heavy physical work, while the maids were slaves, responsible for the daily food and daily life of the master.

Now that there was a warehouse, Yang Ming sent Xu Jing into the palace to inform Zongzheng Temple to send the distribution of the new palace to Hedong.

Especially those armor weapons, now Xiao Maha has gone to Hedong to help him recruit and train soldiers, and there is no one in his hands to train soldiers.

Unexpectedly, after Xu Jing came back, he had a bitter face.

It turned out that the people of Zongzheng Temple said that the palace had not yet been built, so the rations had not been prepared in time, and some things were in short supply in the palace treasury, so they had to be allocated from other treasuries.

Now that Xu Jing entered the palace, he naturally didn't want to return without success, so he found his godfather's regular attendant Wang Pu to help urge Zong Zhengsi.

Zongzheng Temple is one of the Nine Ministers, and it is under the jurisdiction of the emperor alone, but Wang Pu, the regular attendant, was originally a person next to Yang Jian, and his face is not small, and the Minister of Zongzheng Temple did not dare to offend at will. As an agent of government affairs, as long as the East Palace wears red, he will immediately prepare for the shipping of the water boat.

The words have been said very clearly, there are things, but the East Palace does not allow delivery.

Of course Wang Bo didn't have the guts to go to the East Palace, so Xu Jing could only come back disheartened.

That's my money!
Who gave you the right to withhold?

Without further ado, Yang Ming asked Xu Jing to prepare the car, and he wanted to enter the palace himself.

In the East Palace right now, the gates of the palace are wide open, and hundreds of officials come in and out, sending the files of various ministries to the Spring and Autumn Palace where the prince is acting for government affairs.

What Yang Ming didn't expect was that as soon as his car arrived at the palace gate, he was stopped by the guards outside the gate.

"The prince has an order that those who are not in charge of government affairs are not allowed to enter the palace. Please go back, Your Highness."

Yang Ming got out of the car with a blank expression, and then swaggered and led Xu Jing to the threshold of the East Palace.

The imperial guards outside looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to stop them, so they had to report quickly inside.

After bypassing the front hall, Yang Ming was stopped again just as he reached the half-moon arch.

This time the one who stopped him was Xiangcheng King Yang Ke who hurried over after getting the news.

"I said, Yang Ming, what are you doing here? Could it be that you also have some government affairs in your hands that need to be reviewed by my father?"

Yang Ming said hehe: "Coincidentally, there really are."

You have a fart!Yang Ke sneered and said, "Really? Take out the file and let me see it?"

"How old are you? Do I need to show you? How about hiding in the East Palace and laying eggs in the East Palace when you're too old?" Yang Ming snorted coldly.

"Hey, I knew you didn't," Yang Ke said with a sneer, "My father has an order that people who are not in charge of government affairs are not allowed to enter. You can't get in today. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Suddenly, Yang Ke screamed, covered his nose and stepped back, blood spilled from his fingers, looking miserable.

It turned out to be Yang Ming who sneaked up and punched him on the nose.

"Okay, you dare to hit me, come and take it down for me!" Yang Ke roared towards the surroundings.

However, none of the imperial guards of the Eastern Palace dared to step forward.

What a joke, without the will of the second sage, who would dare to touch this king of hell?

"If you dare to stop me again, the next punch will be heavier,"

Yang Ming gestured his fist towards Yang Ke, and continued walking towards the inner palace.

After walking more than ten steps, he noticed something abnormal behind him, and turned around abruptly, only to see Yang Ke kicking towards him with a flying kick.

Taking advantage of the situation, Yang Ming grabbed the opponent's ankle with his right arm, and then pushed his right shoulder upwards, directly flying Yang Ke out of the top, and fell heavily on the thick palace wall.

With such a light touch, Yang Ke fell directly and passed out.
Is it so careless?Yang Ming felt that he had already pulled back his strength.

Naturally, someone notified Prince Yang Yong of what happened here.

So two Qianniu from the Eastern Palace were ordered to come and "invite" Yang Ming into the Spring and Autumn Palace.

"Everyone has also seen that Yang Ming is stubborn and rude. He dared to beat the King of Xiangcheng for no reason. If you can't cut a jade, you can't make a weapon. I will discipline this naughty boy for King Jin today."

With that said, Yang Yong waved his hand towards his Qianniu Beishen:
"Stick ten."

The imperial guards didn't dare to do anything, but Qian Niu was prepared to dare, because he was ordered by the prince, so he didn't have to bear the responsibility afterwards.

So Yang Ming was pressed on a long bench, and Qian Niu, who was holding a staff on the left and right, was ready to fight.

"I have government affairs, and Yang Ke stops me, who is right and who is wrong?" Yang Ming said while lying on the stool.

"Ha, what government affairs do you have?" Yang Yong looked at the officials below, and said with a sneer, "Could it be that you are needed to prepare for the military supplies ahead?"

Niu Hong is currently in the Hall of Spring and Autumn. As the Minister of the Household Department, he is the one who is planning to expand the supply of military supplies ahead.

He is a smart man, he knew Yang Ming's position in Ersheng's heart, so he hurriedly said:
"Would you like to listen to what the King of Hedong has to say?"

He Ruobi, who was sitting next to him, was watching the fun with great interest at this moment, let's fight, let's blow his ass, and see if Yang Guang will come to make trouble after returning to Beijing.

Hearing what Niu Hong said, Yang Yong frowned slightly. Although he was not happy in his heart, Niu Hong still had to give him face, so he looked at Yang Ming and said:
"Tell me, if you dare to tease Gu Gu, the staff will be twenty."

Yang Ming sat up on the bench, glanced at the officials in the hall, and said:

"Hedong Prince's Mansion was built last year, and now the treasury has been completed. According to the regulations, I can already receive rations from the Prince's Mansion, but Zongzheng Temple suppressed it, saying that I have to find you to wear red, so I came here. What about government affairs?"

Yu Wenbi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, who is also here now, echoed the words:
"The Ministry of Industry has reported the progress of the palace's project, and the storage cellar in the treasury has indeed been completed."

Niu Hong also took the opportunity to say: "The allocation of the palace is indeed a government affair. It seems that His Royal Highness Hedong is not lying."

The corner of Yang Yong's mouth twitched, and he gave Yang Ming a hard look:
"Since there is something wrong, it is enough for someone to report it clearly. If you can't explain the matter clearly, you will beat your elder brother and offend the next one. Come and give me thirty sticks."

Although Yang Yong meant thirty sticks, in fact, when Qianniu was ready to do it, he would not dare to use heavy hands, at most it was meaning, otherwise the second sage went back to the palace to pursue them, and they would have a hard time.

This time, Yang Ming didn't say anything, but instead took the initiative to get down:
"Let's fight. Thirty sticks can kill a person. Since uncle wants to kill my nephew, how dare my nephew disobey the order?"

Now that's all right, Yang Ming has spoken so seriously that all the officials in the hall begged for mercy.
Even He Ruobi, who never cares about other people's business, has a good face:
"Since it's a misunderstanding between the two Highnesses, why don't you let King Xiangcheng punch you back and let this matter go?"

Another punch?Yang Yong felt uncomfortable for a while. Is this boy's punch and my son's punch the same thing?
Once this kid comes to the East Palace, he makes trouble for me once. How the hell do I owe you?
In front of so many people, Yang Yong couldn't deal with it seriously, so he said:

"Shut him up in Gu's study, and wait for Gu to finish dealing with government affairs."
