Chapter 176
In the past, Yang Guang always suppressed his own nature and played his role as a virtuous king.

In the eyes of the world, this King Jin is not a womanizer, a virtuous corporal, and even Yang Jian and his wife were deceived by him.

But in fact, compared to his good friend Cui Che, who once confessed in front of Yang Jian that he was a "sexy minister", Yang Guang's preference for female sex is not far behind.

It's just that he has deep ambitions in his heart and can restrain his desires.

But today, seeing Zhang Lihua, who was a prisoner, was still dazzled by her beauty.

Zhang Lihua is no longer young. She entered the palace at the age of ten and is now 31 years old.

But the seven-foot-long hair was still as thick as lacquer, and the bright eyes were looking at Yang Guang pitifully at this moment.

Yang Guang's heart skipped a beat, and then the deer bumped wildly.

It's love!

As we all know, fall in love at first sight, also known as love at first sight.

"You are willing to be the king's concubine."

Confused, Yang Guang actually asked Zhang Lihua in public, and all of a sudden, the audience was shocked.

Before Zhang Lihua could answer, Gao Jiong strongly objected:
"King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Yin and Shang Dynasties and killed Daji without being fooled by beauty. Now that the king has put down the Chen Dynasty, he should not marry Zhang Lihua!"

Either way, Cui Che didn't want to be with a gentleman like Gao Jiong.

If it were Gao Jiong instead, let alone Zhang Lihua, the empress Shen Wuhua, Gong Guifei, and Kong Guifei would all be pushed to Yang Guang, and Chen Shubao's concubines would be left open for Yang Guang to choose.

It can also make Yang Jian and his wife see their lustful nature clearly.

Yang Guang didn't expect Gao Jiong to disturb the situation, he frowned and said:
"Gao Gong only knows that King Wu of Zhou killed Daji, so he doesn't know that Emperor Wei Wen married Zhen."

When Cao Pi, Cao Cao's second son, entered Yecheng, he got Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi's wife, Zhen Shi, who was later Empress Wen Zhaozhen and the biological mother of Wei Ming Emperor Cao Rui.

Gao Chiong retorted:
"How can the two be confused? Zhang Lihua seduces the king and disrupts the government. His crimes are the same as Daji's. How can he be equal to Empress Wen Zhao!"

Dang even ordered that Zhang Lihua be beheaded.

Two guards came to drag Zhang Lihua, Zhang Lihua struggled, and she shouted at Yang Guang:
"My lord, save me!"

Yang Guang is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Although he is the king of Jin and the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he is under the control of Gao Jiong in all matters. Now Gao Jiong wants to kill Zhang Lihua without a valid reason, and even he can't stop it.

In a panic, a light flashed in his mind, and Yang Guangda shouted:
"Wait a minute!"

The two guards stopped, and everyone looked at Yang Guang suspiciously, even Gao Jiong stared at Yang Guang to see what he was saying.

Yang Guang calmly said:

"In the past, Lord Wucheng made great achievements in attacking the Turks in the north, but when he returned to the imperial court, he declined his fame and title. His father once said that after the destruction of Chen, he should be bestowed with beauties.

"This king is friendly with Lord Wucheng. He once joked that Zhang Lihua, a beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, would like to ask for this woman.

"What I said just now was just to test on behalf of Lord Wucheng, how could this king like women!"

What he said was just and righteous, Yang Guang planned to hide Zhang Lihua afterwards, and then find Cui Che, and ask him to give Zhang Lihua to him as a gift, at worst, he would find some more beauties from these concubines and exchange them with him.

Gao Jiong pondered for a moment, then waved his hand to let the guards let go of Zhang Lihua.

He knew that Yang Jian and his wife doted on King Jin and alienated the crown prince. Now King Jin, as the commander in charge of defeating Chen, has made great contributions and gained even more momentum.

Today, even if Yang Jun, King of Qin, Yang Xiu, King of Shu, and Yang Liang, King of Han asked for each other, he agreed.

It happened that Jin Wang Yang Guang was the best candidate for Yi Chu.

As a supporter of the crown prince, Yang Guangna should have been allowed to marry Zhang Lihua, but for the sake of the country, how could Gao Jiong allow a woman like Zhang Lihua to marry into the Prince Jin's mansion.

As long as he didn't marry into the Jin Palace, Gao Jiong would not insist on killing Zhang Lihua.

The Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed Qi and did not kill Feng Xiaolian, and now that the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, he did not need to kill Zhang Lihua.

Yang Guang was overjoyed when he saw this, but Gao Jiong's next words made him feel cold.

"Send this girl to Hankou, kill or keep, and hand it over to Lord Wucheng."

As a good brother who had known him since childhood, Yang Guang knew Cui Che too well. If he really wanted to let his good brother see Zhang Lihua's appearance, there would be no room for him. Cui Che would have eaten him up.

"It's better to wait until after returning to Beijing"

Before Yang Guang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gao Jiong:

"The matter has been decided, and the king does not need to say more."

After finishing speaking, he waved to the guards, and everyone hurriedly took Zhang Lihua out of the tent and sent him to Hankou.

Yang Guang was so anxious that he excused himself to go out.

Gao Jiong looked at his back as he was leaving in a hurry, summoned a trusted aide, whispered a few words to him, and the trusted aide led away.

Soon, Yang Guang returned to the commander's tent, and Gao Jiong was instructing Chen Shubao to write a letter, urging the generals in Nanchen to surrender.

Gao Jiong also sent people to collect books and seal them up in the treasury.

Shi Wenqing, Shen Keqing and others who suppressed the emergency documents at the border and made great contributions to the Sui Dynasty were executed.

It's not about killing people to silence them, these people are indeed not spies developed by the Sui Dynasty.

The real internal response, such as Pei Yun and others from the Wenxi Pei family, were protected early on.

At night, Yang Guang accidentally saw his entourage who had returned to his mission.

"I didn't tell you to go to Hankou, why did you come back!"

"My lord, it was Gao Changshi who sent people to chase the servant back."

I am full of grievances.

Yang Guang was furious when he heard the words, he kicked over the table, gritted his teeth and said:
"Old thief! You bullied me too much!"

Yang Guang knew very well that Cui Che didn't know the reason why Zhang Lihua was sent to Hankou. He really thought it was a beauty rewarded to him, so how could he refuse.

If there is a real relationship between husband and wife, how can Yang Guang ask Cui Che for it.

He doesn't hate Cui Che, brother Che is innocent, but Gao Jiong has repeatedly ruined his good deeds, and is the most important supporter of the crown prince, Yang Guang hates him deeply.

The personal grievances between Yang Guang and Gao Jiong will not be mentioned for now.

Before the downstream Sui army crossed south, Yang Su in the upstream had already defeated the Chen army in Yanzhou, Jingmen, smashed more than ten Nanchen warships, and captured more than [-] people.

Lu Zhongsu fled alone, and Gu Jue, the governor of Nanchen Xinzhou who was stationed on the south bank, was terrified, and he also fled from the city.

Seeing this, Chen Huiji, the governor of Jingzhou in Southern Chen Dynasty, burned the grain storage, led more than a thousand warships, and 3 sergeants in an attempt to retreat to Jiankang.

However, more than [-] Sui troops stationed in Hankou on Shanyang Road, Chen Huiji could not advance and was blocked to the west of Hankou.

Yang Su divided his troops and sent Liu Renen, the governor of Jingzhou in the Sui Dynasty, to go south to Xiangzhou (governing Linxiang, now Changsha, Hunan), while he himself led the main force to Hankou.

Liu Renen soon captured Xiangzhou and captured the Southern Chen Yueyang King Chen Shushen alive.

Yang Su's army traveled starry night and night, and after hard work, they finally arrived in Hankou and successfully joined forces with Yang Jun.

Yang Su was hesitant to speak about the more than [-] troops on Shanyang Road watching from the sidelines, but in any case, Chen Huiji was blocked to the west of the Han River and prevented him from intervening in the Jiankang war.

At this time, Yang Su didn't know that the battle downstream had already ended.

 I brought it to Chapter 3, it’s gone today, and the cold is much better. I will guarantee three chapters tomorrow. I don’t know if there is Chapter 4.
