On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 302
Yang Jian was discouraged by it. Who didn't know that the biggest obstacle to conscripting Liaodong was the difficult road.

It's easy to say, but the more than 2000 miles of mountain roads and the more than [-] miles of muddy Liaoze land are not so easy to repair.

Yang Jian asked again:
"Aside from that, is there any other way?"

Cui Che thought for a moment, then replied:
"The stubborn enemy should gradually nibble away and clip its wings.

"It's better to use Kumoxi to attack Khitan first.

"After Khitan surrenders, the army can drive the cattle and sheep, go south through the flat land of Liaobei, bypass Liaoze, and go straight to Liaodong!"

Yang Jian heard the words and complained:

"Why didn't the son-in-law speak earlier!"

Cui Che hurriedly apologized.

But Yang Jian didn't really want to convict, he helped Cui Che up, and asked earnestly:

"Since Yuji, I have never been humiliated like this.

"I and my son-in-law are both monarchs and ministers, and weng-in-law, and I have high hopes for you.

"If you take the son-in-law as the general, and always use the military power of You and Ying, in five years, can the son-in-law get rid of this serious trouble for me?"

Cui Che thought to himself: Five years of Ping Liao, why does this sound so unlucky.

But Yang Jian asked all the questions, and Cui Che couldn't actually refuse. Cui Che said:

"Youzhou's cavalry pawns come and go like the wind, and they are more than enough to subdue Khitan.

"However, Goguryeo has a fortified city, which is different from Turks and Khitans. If they occupy the city and defend it, the cavalry will not be able to do anything.

"Yingzhou has few soldiers and few generals, so it is even more useless.

"Using only the soldiers of You and Ying, the minister is afraid of disappointing His Majesty's high expectations, so he only dares to promise to make Khitan submit.

"If your majesty can allow your ministers to lure Kumoxi and Khitan to send troops and drive them to fight against Goguryeo, within five years, you will surely pacify Liaodong for your majesty!"

Yang Jian was overjoyed when he heard the words, and was able to drive Ku Moxi.Khitan and Goguryeo killed each other, which was exactly what he wanted, so he agreed on the spot.

Since Kumoxi and Khitan were going to lure Kumoxi and Khitan to attack Goguryeo in the future, money, rice, salt, and cloth were naturally indispensable, so Yang Jian ordered to build a large warehouse in Youzhou to store supplies, and Cui Che would take it when he attacked Goguryeo in the future. use.

Weng and his son-in-law set the goal of flattening Liao Dynasty in five years, Yang Jian couldn't help but patted Cui Che on the shoulder and praised him repeatedly.

At this time, Yang Su, who was ordered to go to the East Palace to reprimand Yang Yong, returned to Daxing Hall with a bitter face.

Yang Jian frowned and said:
"Why does Yang Qing act like this?"

Yang Su bowed to plead guilty:

"Your Majesty ordered the ministers to reprimand the East Palace, but the Crown Prince felt resentful and uttered rebellious words, so the ministers had no choice but to turn around and plead guilty to His Majesty!"

Yang Jian said in a deep voice:
"What did Nizi say again!"

Yang Su answered truthfully, it was nothing more than the father's suspicion of the son, what kind of father-son relationship was born so far, all these were Yang Su's intentional anger on Yang Yong, making Yang Yong speak unscrupulously.

Yang Jian's face changed suddenly, he immediately called the eunuch to come to the East Palace to investigate the situation.

Cui Che secretly looked at Yang Su, but Yang Su's expression was calm, without any sign of panic. He seemed not at all worried that his words that angered Yang Yong would reach Yang Jian's ears.

The eunuch who was in charge of investigating the situation had just left the Daxing Hall, and hadn't gone far, but accidentally bumped into Queen Dugu Jialuo, and he hurriedly bowed and knelt down.

Dugu Jialuo said lightly:
"I heard that Duke Yue recently got a new daughter. You have finished your work for His Majesty. Don't forget to congratulate him for me."

The eunuch knew it well, and hurriedly said:

"The Duke of Yue is a minister of the country, and he has a holy family. He is truly a blessed man."

Dugu Jialuo nodded slightly, and said:

"Get up, it's important to do something for His Majesty."

The eunuch hurried to the East Palace, and with Dugu Jialuo's hint, he naturally wondered whether Yang Yong really said rebellious words, but he was lightly ignored as to why Yang Yong said that.

When the eunuch returned to Daxing Hall and confirmed that Yang Su's words were true, Yang Jian was so angry that he ordered the prince to study the "Book of Filial Piety" behind closed doors.

Yang Yong was very indignant, clamoring to face the saint, defending his innocence, but Yang Jian refused, he didn't want to see this traitor, and asked him to stay in the East Palace to reflect on his crimes.

When Gao Jiong heard about this, he hurried into the palace to persuade him, but Yang Su said sullenly from the side:
"Although Gao Xiang and the prince are in-laws, the family affairs between father and son should not be involved."

Gao Jiong justly said:

"The sovereign is the master of the world, and the crown prince is the heir apparent of the country. How can he be regarded as a family matter? What is Yang Xiang's intention to separate the flesh and blood of the heavenly family!"

Yang Su's face changed, he said angrily:
"Gao Xiang don't want to spout blood! The whole story is already clear, so why bother to say such cruel words!"

Seeing the two arguing, Yang Jian shouted angrily:
"Enough! As prime ministers, you two have the bearing of a prime minister for doing this!"

Gao Jiong and Yang Su pleaded guilty one after another.

After sending Gao Jiong away, Yang Jian said to Cui Che and Yang Su:

"The crown prince is disobedient and unfilial, and is not enough to inherit the great rule. I intend to change the king of Jin. I know that the two lovers and Guang'er are friendly, so I specially discuss plans with you."

Cui Che and Yang Su didn't dare to show a hint of joy, they said seriously:
"Your Majesty is listening to your orders."

Yang Jian continued:
"Now that Yu Qingze and Shi Wansui are dead, the prince still has a senior minister to protect them.

"He has assisted me for many years, and he has worked hard and made great achievements. I don't want him to continue to fall into the quagmire of fighting for the reserve, and hope to save his life.

"It just so happens that the son-in-law is going to stay in Daxing for a while, so the two of you should come up with a way to prevent Prime Minister Gao from being wronged and people all over the world to say that I don't miss the old relationship, and also to demote Prime Minister Gao to other places, so that we can no longer obstruct the waste. thing to do."

Cui Che bowed and said:
"Your Majesty's move is to protect the high profile, so how can people in the world blame His Majesty for this.

"The subject must be careful with Yang Xiang, so that the high-ranking minister will not be wronged, and the reputation of your majesty will not be tarnished."

Yang Su was also secretly excited, and quickly seconded the proposal.

If Gao Jiong is demoted, who else can replace Zuo Pushe except him, Right Pushe.

Yang Jian exhorted again:

"The two of you should not defile the personal morality of the high minister."

This made Yang Su and Cui Che feel very difficult. They could not start with their personal virtues. With their high talents, they could not make mistakes in official affairs.

But the two still agreed to the matter, and were ready to pick a bone in the egg and drive Gao Jiong from the stage.

As Yang Jian said, driving Gao Jiong away was actually protecting him. If he stayed in the prime minister and allowed him to protect the prince, Yang Jian would not kill Gao Jiong himself, and Yang Guang would not let him go.

Cui Che and Yang Su walked out of the Daxing Palace side by side, the two smiled at each other, and after walking a few steps, the eunuch who was ordered to investigate in the East Palace approached.

The eunuch's face was full of smiles:

"I've met Duke Yue and Duke Yan. Just now, the Empress asked me to bring a message. Congratulations to Duke Yue for his daughter."

Cui Che also finally understood why Yang Su was so confident before.

He had a slight guess that this Yang Su's daughter was probably Li Yuan's concubine Yang.

Cui Che smiled and said:

"Yue Gong has a new noble daughter, Cui must come to ask for a glass of wedding wine."

　Also, in the early morning
