On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 296
On the way back home, Cui Che pretended to be careless and said to Cui Qiji:
"The sage will conquer Goguryeo in the east, and use me to control the Youzhou cavalry as a backup. You go back and prepare, and go to Jixian with me in a few days. First, you will be a small school under my tent."

Before he finished speaking, Cui Qiji excitedly said:

"Grandpa, are you serious?"

Cui Che put his hand on Cui Qiji's shoulder and said with a smile:
"Why are you lying to me, but you are not allowed to lead the army. When the military meeting is held, you can sit in and listen in, but you can't speak. If you have any opinions, you can come to me later."

When Cui Qiji heard this, his face fell down:
"That's the same as when Mr. Fang was in Youzhou. It's really boring."

Cui Che raised his hand, patted him on the head lightly, and joked:

"Or you can stay in Daxing and seek a job in the imperial army like other honorable children, and you will be imprisoned in the guard palace from then on."

Cui Qiji waved his hands again and again:
"Then I'd better go to Youzhou with Grandpa."

When the father and son returned home, Cui Qiji couldn't wait to talk about it with his mother Yang Lihua.

Yang Lihua looked at Cui Che, her eyes were full of doubts, she didn't understand why he suddenly changed his mind, didn't he still stand with her last year, and wanted Cui Qiji to wait two years before he became an official.

Cui Che dismissed Cui Qiji and explained:

"Just let him be the commander of the tent, and learn to handle military affairs by my side. He will not lead the army or go to the battlefield. As long as I am still alive, he will definitely not have any accidents."

Yang Lihua glared, and said:

"Bah! Bah! Bah! Swords and arrows have no eyes on the battlefield, so don't say unlucky words."

Then he asked again:

"When will your father and son leave?"

Cui Che thought for a while and said:

"It's a backup, but it's actually just leading Youzhou cavalry to deter northern Xinjiang after the soldiers from Hedong and Hebei are exhausted. Now that Gao Jiong hasn't set off yet, why should I be in a hurry? Let's stay more in Daxing time."

While changing Cui Che's clothes, Yang Lihua said:
"The concubine will also go with you."

"Go and go!"

Cui Che didn't take it seriously and said, after all, he was going to suppress the place, lest the troops from Hedong and Hebei went to attack Goguryeo, and the people in the southern part of the desert would have troubles.

The next day, Cui Qiji was going to the academy early in the morning to bid farewell to his teacher Xu Wenyuan.

Cui Che didn't forget his character of respecting his teacher, and sent someone to call Mai Tiezhang, and the three of them went out of the city together.

Mai Tiezhang's three sons, Mai Mengcai, Mai Zhongcai, and Mai Jicai, are all studying at Weishui Academy.

On the way, Cui Che heard Cui Qiji mention the list of students in the academy.

It's just that after Wang Shichong, Li Mi and others left Weishui Academy, Cui Che really couldn't find the familiar names in later generations.

It is an exaggeration for an academy to have people like Yang Xuangan, Cui Che, Li Mi, and Wang Shichong emerge successively in just over ten years. It is impossible for everyone to be a big traitor.

Li Mi left the academy one step ahead of Cui Qiji in October last year. His father Li Kuan died of illness.

Li Jing, who followed Cui Che's Northern Expedition during the mourning period, has been decreed to seize his love, and he was appointed as Sima in Zhaozhou (now Zhao County, Hebei), which is also the place where his father and grandfather once held office.

Cui Che led Cui Qiji to meet Xu Wenyuan, while Mai Tiezhang went to find his three sons by himself.

The schedule in the academy remained the same, when Cui Che came to the door, it was the rest time.

Cui Che respectfully greeted Xu Wenyuan, and after explaining his intentions, Xu Wenyuan did not keep Cui Qiji.

Cui Qiji has also been in this academy for many years, and Xu Wenyuan watched him grow up.

Knowing that he is just like his father, he has no interest in learning, and all he wants to do is to make contributions and make a name for future generations.

He only said a few words of encouragement to Cui Qiji, and then pulled Cui Che to ask about the scenery of Mobei.

The two talked for a while, and Mai Tiezhang also led the brothers Mai Mengcai, Mai Zhongcai, and Mai Jicai to the wing.

After listening to his explanation of the purpose of coming, I realized that he also came to bid farewell to Xu Wenyuan.

It turned out that the three brothers of the Mai family were really not material for studying, so they wanted to dance with guns and clubs and join the army with their father.

Cui Che didn't stop him either, after all, everyone has their own ambitions.

It was only because the oldest Mai Mengcai was already 15 years old, and according to the regulations, he could not go to the same place as his father Mai Tiezhang. Cui Che simply asked him to be like Cui Qiji, a young man with no military power under his command. school.

As for Mai Zhongcai and Mai Jicai, Mai Tiezhang took him with him.

When Cui Che returned to Daxing, there were already many old ministries waiting in the mansion to say goodbye to him, including Li Jing, the new Sima of Zhaozhou.

In this Mobei meritorious service, everyone has their own promotions.

Except for those serving in the fifty towns of the six prefectures, the rest must return to the territory as soon as possible to cooperate with the imperial court in recruiting soldiers from Hedong and Hebei.

At the same time, an eunuch came to the door, and it was Yang Jian who called Cui Che into the palace to discuss matters.

Cui Che left the crowd in a hurry, and followed the eunuch into the palace. On the way, Cui Che asked:
"Dare to ask the superintendent, the saint is in a hurry to summon, what happened?"

With that said, a money bag was stuffed into the eunuch's hand.

The eunuch declined repeatedly, but couldn't hold back Cui Che's enthusiasm, so he could only accept it with a smile, and explained to Cui Che:

"This morning, an urgent report was sent from the southwest, and those Cuan people became noisy again. Your Majesty summoned Duke Yan, Duke Qi (Gao Jiong), Duke Yue (Yang Su), Duke Jin (Yu Qingze) and Duke Taiping County. (Shi Wansui), I think it's for this matter."

Hearing this, Cui Che was determined. When he came to Daxing Hall, the other four people were already waiting in the hall. They were on duty in the imperial city, and they must be faster than Cui Che.

Seeing Cui Che enter, Yang Jian said before waiting for him to salute:
"There is no need to be too polite. Now that everyone is here, let's discuss the matter of Nanning Prefecture, whether to send troops, and how many soldiers should be recruited from Shu. High Minister, I will let you introduce the situation of Nanning Prefecture to everyone."

Gao Jiong bowed and told the situation in Nanning Prefecture.

After he finished speaking, Yang Su said:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Cuanren's rebellion is not caused by the crowd, but by the rugged terrain. It is not appropriate to send a large army. I think that the number of ten thousand is enough.

"With our prosperity in the Sui Dynasty, it is enough to support two wars at the same time.

"Besides, South of Shu is not as good as South of the Five Ridges, and it can be conquered in summer. The minister agrees to send troops."

Yang Jian planned to use Shi Wansui to lead the army last year. This is not a secret among the four nobles, but it was put on hold due to the turmoil in northern Xinjiang. Today, he specially called Shang Shi Wansui to participate in the discussion. His inner tendency is obvious.

Although Gao Jiong and Yu Qing had always been at odds with Yang Su, they also expressed their agreement, and Cui Che would not object.

All eyes fell on Shi Wansui.

Shi Wansui came out and said:

"Your Majesty only needs to give you five thousand soldiers, and I will be your Majesty to put down the Nanning Rebellion!"

Yang Jian shook his head and said:
"Remember not to underestimate the enemy. I ordered the King of Shu to recruit [-] soldiers for you. I am waiting for Shi Qing's success report."

　It will be recommended tomorrow, there will be a burst of updates, and some chapters that are owed will be rewritten.
