Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 663: Don’t harm me?
As soon as Yang Ming left, Pei Shuying and Dugu Feng'er sneaked out of the palace, taking a total of 300 people with them, and wanted to chase Yang Ming, but they were kidnapped by Cui Hongshou, the guard of Mingde Gate.

"Two noble men, please don't embarrass me. I will never let you leave the city." Cui Hongshou knows the seriousness of the matter. How can you two women help?Isn't this going to cause trouble?

"If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude," Pei Shuying, wearing a warrior uniform, said while sitting on the horse.

She had her armor ready, and the attendants behind her were keeping it.

It was already very difficult to sneak out of the palace. It took the two of them a long time to find the opportunity. However, no one would let them go through the east city gate, and no one dared to let them go through the Mingde Gate in the south.

The matter is very important. If you go out for an outing, you can come and go as you please, but it is obvious that you are chasing the prince, so I dare not let you go.

As more and more civilians began to watch, everyone realized that it was the crown prince's concubine who wanted to follow her husband into the army. Gradually, some people began to praise him.

That's why, even though Pei Ju knew what his daughter was going to do, he still secretly helped her sneak out of the palace.

He just wanted more people to know what a virtuous wife the crown prince's concubine was.

In the Shanxi area, Pei Shuying has a very good reputation. Because she helped the victims, she has been praised to this day. If the local government hadn't stopped her, some people would have planned to build a temple for Pei Shuying.

But in the capital, Yang Yinjiang was the one who kept the pressure on Pei Shuying.

Pei Ju didn't know that he had a long life. He felt that he was older and Yang Yue was not younger either. Maybe it was just a matter of front and rear.

But my son is not strong enough, so Xuangan still occupies eight seats.

If he is gone, the new head of the old Pei family will most likely be Pei Yun. Pei Yun is capable, but lacks the courage.

So Pei Ju planned to have a good fight with Hongnong Yang while he was alive.

The emperor was unhappy with the Yang family, and he knew it. The opportunity was rare.

Cui Hongshou would definitely not dare to let him go. Hundreds of guards were guarding the door to prevent Pei Shuying from leaving the city. As for Pei Shuying, unlike Yang Yinjiang, she would not hit anyone.

Dugu Feng'er tried to force her way through the city gate, but she was stopped by her.

If you force your way in, things will break out.

As time passed, more and more important people came to persuade them. After Wei Yunqi dismounted, he saluted the two of them and said:
"Two noble gentlemen, please be considerate of us as subordinates. You are wearing full armor in this song. According to the law, no one is allowed to wear armor in the capital except for the army and the garrison of the capital."

Wei Yunqi himself wore official uniform and no armor.

Pei Shuying began to regret that she had not forced her way in just now.

There's no point regretting it, her character is like this, if you give her another chance, she still won't push through.

After sighing, Pei Shuying turned around on horseback and said to Dugu Feng'er, "Go back."

"You, you just listened to me, we have already left the city," Dugu Feng'er complained. Now there are hundreds of Wuhou guards gathered at the city gate, and they can't get through even if they try hard.

After Yang Guang in the palace learned about this, he would naturally not be angry. Instead, he would feel that what could a husband want from such a wife?
"The Eastern Turks have sent envoys on their way and want to continue to bow their heads to me. What do you think of Shiju?" Yang Guang said in Liangyi Hall.

Pei Ju frowned: "In this northern expedition, the decisive battle was at Dujin Mountain. Most of the main force of the Turkic Golden Wolf Army was lost, and the national strength declined. In a short period of time, it will be harmless to our border, but it is not what I want to allow them to recuperate. What we fear most is that internal troubles will lead to external troubles."

Yu Wenshu agreed: "Although they have suffered huge losses, there are so many rebellions in our country. If Jieli knew about it, he would probably be uneasy. Now that Jieli has just taken over the position of Khan, I am afraid that he is clearing out dissidents. Nothing will happen this year." , but next year, I can’t say for sure.”

Yang Guang nodded and said, "Didn't the Crown Prince promise to give Shi Bi's son a princess to marry? What's the name of that one?"

"Return to your majesty, Ashina Shibobi," Pei Ju said.

"Well," Yang Guang said, "How old will this kid be next year?"

"Next year, he will only be 13 years old, and he will have to wait a long time to get married," Pei Ju said, "and since he died in our Sui Dynasty, this son may not be willing to get married."

Yang Guang smiled and said: "Yes, there is nothing more tempting than power. If I give him a princess to marry, this son will be jealous of Jie Li, which will have the effect of alienating him."

Shibi, Chuluo, and Jieli were all sons of Qimin. Shibi was the eldest son. What he inherited was the foundation of his father Qimin. It was very stable and his family was rich, so he had the courage to unite with the Western Turks to invade the Sui Dynasty. .

But once he died, Chuluo took over a scattered team, and the power in his hands was not so concentrated. When Jieli came up again, the internal problems would definitely be more serious, because Jieli was still young, only in his early thirties. , his tribe has always been in the far east, far away from the core of power in Dujin Mountain.

If it weren't for the fact that Shibi's eldest son, Ashina Shibobi, was too young, this position should not have been Jieli.

According to Turkic tradition, when Ashnash Bobi comes of age, he will have the right to inherit. At that time, people will definitely fight for it, but the benefits will definitely not be given.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to divide the Eastern Turks? So that they will have no time to interfere in our domestic affairs in a short period of time?" Yu Wen said.Yang Guang nodded, looked at Pei Ju and said, "Shiju is good at this. You can think of a way. After all, that Ashina is not yet an adult."

Pei Ju sighed: "In fact, the best way is to canonize Princess Yicheng's son Ao Sheshe, but his strength is too weak. If we support him, the alienation will be too obvious, so we can try Jie Li's brother, A Shi Then blame Jishe."

"Ashina Shibo Bi and Ashina Ao Sheshe, these two are actually the top choices. Unfortunately, one is young and the other is weak," Yu Zhongwen frowned and said:
"I heard that Jishe, the fourth child, is a coward and does not have enough prestige in the Turks. At the moment, Jieli is the most powerful. It should be only a matter of time before he eliminates the dissidents. By then, the threat to me will be very great. , we really need to prepare early, after all, cough cough"

Yu Wenshu was stunned: "What on earth?"

"Nothing," Yu Zhongwen waved his hand. In fact, he wanted to say, after all, we have so many refined weapons lying there.

He didn't dare to say it because Yang Guang didn't like to hear it.

But everyone also knew exactly what he was referring to.

According to the laws of the Great Sui Dynasty, those who abandon their armor and weapons will be killed!
But there was nothing we could do. Everyone did this in order to escape. How could you kill them?If you dare to kill, it is a mutiny.

Su Wei said: "Lao Si scolded Ji She for being timid. If we canonize him as the Great Khan, he may not have the courage to fall out with Jie Li. What we have to consider is who wants to sit in that position most among the Turks."

"It must be Qimin's mother and brother, Ashina Suni is missing," Pei Ju said:

"This person had an argument with Chu Luo in the beginning. Although he respects Jie Li due to the current situation, he is definitely not willing to accept it. We can send someone to contact him privately and tell him that I, Sui Dynasty, hope that he will become the Great Khan. .”

Yu Shiji pondered for a moment and said: "I always feel that at this time, it seems that we should not interfere with the affairs of the Eastern Turks, so as not to anger them and lead the troops south. Now there is chaos in Hebei and Shandong, and I am afraid that they will take advantage of it. Even Shanxi It’s not very stable.”

"We're not afraid of ten thousand, but we're afraid of the worst. If we don't do anything, he will still go south?" Pei Ju said, "Then internal and external troubles will add up, and things will be bad."

Yang Guang made a final decision: "Let's follow Shi Ju's idea. We need to win over the underage boy, and we also need to contact Qimin's younger brother. In short, we can't let Jie Li take over the eighteen grassland tribes as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a big problem. .”

If I had known this, you should not have run away in the first place. Pei Ju looked helpless. If the emperor at that time had run north to meet Yuwenshu, he would not be in this embarrassing situation.

If you run alone, you will drag hundreds of thousands of troops to follow you, and your success will be defeated.

"Didn't Duke Xu Guo have a good job in East Turkestan? Where does this person occupy?" Yang Yue asked.

Yu Wenshu was stunned. It was drafted. Before I had time to tell His Majesty, you and others revealed it first.

Sure enough, Yang Guang suddenly frowned and looked at Yuwenshu in surprise, who hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, this is the son of my old friend. I treat him like an adopted son. He is from the Zhao family in Tianshui. Now he is highly trusted by Jie Li."

They told the truth.

The others looked at each other, why the hell do you still have such a character?

Yang Guang's face suddenly darkened, because he was the one who was attacked by Jie Li.

"Since there is such a person, why didn't you retaliate when Jieli attacked the camp?" Yang Yue said after hitting the snake with the stick.

Yu Wenshu sighed: "It's probably too late. After all, he is a Han Chinese. Jie Li will not completely trust him."

With a "pop" sound, Yang Guang slammed the brush in his hand on the table:
"Who are these people you are using? We should do our best to communicate such a big event, but if we can't even send out this little bit of news, it's worse than nothing. This person is extremely useless."

He relied on Zhao Deyan.

I am a spy. I have to protect myself before I can help you, right?
"Not many people know about the location of His Majesty's camp. How did Jie Li know about it? Hasn't the Ministry of War considered this issue?" Yang Yue was asking Duan Wenzhen, but he was actually trying to drag Yu Wenshu into trouble.

Duan Wenzhen nodded and said: "This is the biggest suspicion, but there is no way to start the investigation."

Yu Wenshu looked at Yang Yue with a wry smile and said, "I say Mr. Yang, we have been friends for decades, so please don't harm me. I hired people inappropriately, but it was definitely not me who leaked the military plan."

"What do you mean by that?" Yang Yue said, "I didn't mean that. Who among the princes in the court doesn't know about Xu Gong's loyalty?"

"Okay, okay," Yang Guang raised his hand to interrupt the conversation between the two: "Xu Gongzhen still understands, and we should be more prudent in hiring people in the future. This Zhao Deyan will still be useful in the future, and this line cannot be broken."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. When he stabilizes, he will send someone to contact you." After Yuwen finished speaking, he glanced at Yang Yue helplessly.

Yang Yue spread his hands, indicating that he really didn't mean that.

There's none?Who here can't see that?
