On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 178 Yangong Cui Che
In February of the ninth year of Kaihuang (589), sporadic rebellions in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River were suppressed one after another.

After Xiying, the wife of Gaoliang County (now Yangjiang, Guangdong), received a letter of persuasion written by Chen Shubao from the Sui envoy, she decided to attach the land of Lingnan.

Since then, after the demise of the Western Jin Dynasty, the 273-year-long division has come to an end, and the world has once again returned to unity.

On the sixth day of March, various ministries successively marched. Yang Guangliu Sima Wang Shao guarded Stone City, and he led the army back to the north, accompanied by Chen Shubao and his princes and ministers. The team stretched for more than [-] miles.

On April [-]th, Jin Wang Yang Guang and Qin Wang Yang Jun entered the city one by one. Yang Jian inspected the armies at Guangyang Gate, and worshiped Yang Guang as Taiwei for his meritorious service in destroying Chen.

Both Huainan Daoxingtai and Shanyang Daoxingtai were temporarily set up to attack Chen. Now that Nanchen has perished, they will naturally be abolished. Yang Guang returned to Jinyang and served as the general manager of Bingzhou and the military governor of the 24 prefectures.

However, Yang Jun was appointed as the general manager of Yangzhou, guarding Guangling, and supervising all the military forces in 44 states.

This may be what Yang Jian did on purpose.

Yang Jian did not blame Yang Jun for slacking off in the war. It is common for the two armies to be in a stalemate for more than a month. On the contrary, after listening to Yang Jun's words relayed by the envoy, he praised him very much.

Outside the Guangyang Gate, which is just south of the palace city, the materials used to reward the soldiers have been piled up to the south of the city, and there are more than three million pieces of cloth alone.

Gao Jiong was granted the title of Qi Guogong, plus Zhu Guo;

Yang Jian said to Gao Chiong:

"After Gao Qing went south, someone slandered Gao Qing for treason, and I have killed him. The kindness between our monarch and his ministers is beyond the power of those little blueflies."

When he led the army to the south, he was called Dugu Gong, but when he returned to the court, he changed his name to Gao Qing.

But Gao Jiong no longer cared about these details, he kowtowed excitedly, thanking Yang Jian for his trust.

If it wasn't for Yang Jian to help him up, he would have kowtowed to the point of bleeding outside the Guangyang Gate.

Yang Jian also granted Yang Su the Duke of Yue, his eldest son Yang Xuangan the Third Division of Yitong, and his fourth son Yang Xuanshang the Duke of Qinghe County.

At the same time, Chen Shubao's sister, Princess Lechang, was rewarded to Yang Su as a concubine.

The Princess Lechang had a husband and son-in-law, but they were separated during the war. The couple split a bronze mirror in half beforehand as a token, looking forward to reunion in the future.

Of course Yang Su didn't know these things, he was immersed in excitement.

Who would have thought that just two years ago, because of his violent wife and family, he was also convicted and dismissed from office, and was demoted to the rank of a commoner.

Now that the scenery is so beautiful, even Yinzi is an official, as for conferring a wife, there is no need for it. Yang Su can't wait for that shrew to die.

Of course, with such a big event today, there are also discordant voices.

General He Ruobi and Han Qinhu are competing for merit, and they both think that they should be the first in defeating Chen.

Both of them had their own reasons, He Ruobi defeated Chen Jun at Baitugang, but Han Qinhu entered the city first.

Before returning to the teacher, the two had frequent quarrels over this matter, and even exchanged harsh words. The most serious one even drew out their swords.

Today, the two quarreled again, and Yang Jian had no choice but to talk to Xi Ni and said:

"The two ministers are both honored."

The two of them tied for the first place in credit, but the relationship between He Ruobi and Han Qinhu was still settled.

He Ruobi was granted the title of Duke of the State of Song, ascended to the throne of Shangzhu Kingdom, and granted food to [-] households, and rewarded Chen Shubao's younger sister to He Ruobi as a concubine.

However, Han Qinhu was only granted the title of Shangzhu Kingdom, with [-] pieces of gifts. Because he was impeached by a minister for promiscuous court ladies in Jiankangtai City, he was not awarded the title of knighthood.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people in front of him, it was finally Cui Che's turn. When he saw Yang Jian, he bowed down and pleaded guilty.

Yang Jian helped him up, and comforted him:

"Back then, Cui Qing proposed a strategy to defeat Chen, and the strategy was very effective. Besides, Cui Qing assisted the King of Qin and surrendered Chen Zhong. How can it be said that it was in vain!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Jian looked at the servant, who hurriedly proclaimed the decree, Cui Che made Yan Guogong, entered Shangzhu Kingdom, and actually granted food to [-] households, the same as He Ruobi.

"How can you dare to reward General He Ruo for your insignificant achievements!"

Cui Che hastily declined.

He Ruobi's surname was He Ruo, not He.

But Yang Jian forbade:
"I didn't reward Cui Qing for his achievements in the Southern Expedition. Cui Qing offered a strategy to defeat the Chen Dynasty, and then attacked the Turks far away. Today, he is rewarded for his hard work."

When Cui Che heard this, he wept and said:

"Your Majesty Long En, how will the ministers repay you!"

Yang Jian helped Cui Che up again, and Cui Che accepted the reward with sobs.

Before the Southern Expedition, Cui Che resigned from the Duke of Yan and the Kingdom of Shangzhu just because he didn't want to be the first bird. Now that the class teacher returns to the court, everyone is rewarded. striking.

Yang Jian patted Cui Che's shoulder and said with a smile:

"Since King Jin has already given Zhang Lihua as a gift, I will not give another beauty Cui Qing."

Yang Guang who was on the side only felt colic in his heart when he heard the words.

Cui Che took a sneak peek at Yang Guang, saw him with a bitter face, suppressed a smile, and thanked Yang Jian again.

The reward was still going on, Cui Che stepped back, walked to Yang Guang's side, and said softly:
"Are you still thinking about Zhang Lihua?"

Yang Guang's expression changed, and he said seriously:
"Zicheng, don't be suspicious!"

Cui Che lightly bumped Yang Guang's shoulder, jokingly said:

"Your rhetoric is also deceiving others, I don't remember ever saying something like Zhang Lihua, a beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, wishing for this girl.

"But I didn't know the details of that day until later. Now that it's done, I won't give her up."

Yang Guang was silent.

Cui Che lowered his voice and reprimanded:
"Since you have great ambitions, why would you cherish a woman, if I were Qigong (Gao Jiong), I would kill Zhang Lihua too.

"Why is the color so dizzy that I forgot why the prince fell out of favor with the queen!"

Yang Guang let out a long sigh and said softly:
"I know I was wrong, so Zicheng don't bring up the past again."

Cui Che accepted it as soon as he saw it was good, and he didn't want to be unreasonable.

After the two untie their knots, they resumed their old relationship. While the two of them were chatting, the other generals were also rewarded. As expected, Cui Hongdu still held the title of Duke of Wuxiang.

When Cui Che looked at him, Cui Hongdu returned a wry smile.

He didn't hate Cui Che, Yang Jian made it very clear that he was rewarding Cui Che for his past achievements.

Cui Hongdu was also mentally prepared, how could he get his wish and be named the duke of the state just by accepting surrender.

Of course, he was better than Cui Zhongfang anyway. Not only did Cui Zhongfang not receive the reward, but he was dismissed because of something.

When Cui Zhongfang heard Cui Che's words that day, he intentionally defiled himself, but he got what he wanted and died for nothing.

It's just that what he committed was just a small mistake, and he can recover easily in the future.

The meritorious officials were rewarded one after another, and soon Chen Shubao, 28 princes, kings, and more than [-] ministers of civil and military affairs were also summoned by Yang Jian. Among them was the former Northern Zhou emperor who opposed Yang Jian's power in the early years and joined forces with Yu Chijiong and Wang Qian. , Today's Nanchen Sikong Sima Xiaonan.
