On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 34
The battle in Huainan was led by Wei Xiaokuan, and progressed smoothly. Troops were dispatched at the end of August. Only on November 21, the Southern Expedition Army conquered Shouyang, Huangcheng (Huangpi District of Wuhan), and Guangling one after another.

Seeing that Nanchen was unable to defend Jiangbei, he moved the people across the river. The Northern Zhou Dynasty took all the land in Huainan on the eighth day of December, and has since ruled with Nanchen on the river.

However, another moth appeared in Chang'an City, and this time it was not a foreign relative fighting for power.

It was customary in the Northern Zhou Dynasty that the imperial family ordered women to enter the palace on a regular basis, but Tianyuan Emperor Yu Wenyun was a daring character. He dared to force his deceased father and concubines to rape his dead father and concubines before the bones of Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty were cold. trouble.

Weishui Academy just finished class, Cui Che was going to practice riding and archery with Yang Xuangan, but the two of them, together with Pei Xiu, were dragged back to the dormitory by Dou Wei.

Dou Wei carefully closed the doors and windows before whispering to them:
"Do you know what happened when the woman was ordered to enter the palace yesterday?"

As soon as the three of them heard it, they knew that when the woman entered the palace to pay homage, she said that she broke the sky, and it was just the bad thing in Emperor Tianyuan's crotch.

However, the dirty news of the palace is the most curious, not to mention that it is related to the reputation of the married woman, even Yang Xuangan pricked up his ears to hear what happened.

"Emperor Tianyuan got drunk last night and raped his wife. Do you know which family she is from?"

Cui Che was in a hurry to shoot arrows with Yang Xuangan, and couldn't stand Dou Wei's mysterious appearance, and wanted to tell the answer for him, but he kept his mouth shut, and just urged:

"Say it quickly, don't make people hungry."

"That's right, finish it quickly."

Yang Xuangan and Pei Xiu also complained.

"Okay, okay, let me say it's okay, that woman is the wife of Duke Xiyang."

As soon as Dou Wei's words came out, Yang Xuangan said in surprise:

"What are you talking about! Duke Qi is out leading the army, yet Emperor Tianyuan raped his daughter-in-law?!"

"The news from the palace is absolutely true."

After receiving Dou Wei's affirmative reply, Pei Xiu exclaimed:
"This is going to be a big mess!"

Yu Wenwen, Duke of Xiyang County, was the son of Yu Wenliang, Duke of Qi State, and Yu Wenliang was on his way back to Chang'an after following Marshal Wei Xiaokuan to capture Huainan.

Yu Wenliang fought bravely for the country on the front line, expanding the territory, while Emperor Tianyuan raped his daughter-in-law in the rear.

All three were spurning the absurd behavior of the emperor, and Cui Che acted as the audience as usual.

Sure enough, as Pei Xiu said, in the second year of the elephant (580), in March, the army marched to Yuzhou, Henan. When Yu Wenliang heard the news, he was angry and angry. With military power, we will move westward and head straight for Chang'an.

But he was informed by his subordinates. When Yu Wenliang led Baiqi to attack at night, Wei Xiaokuan had already prepared to capture and kill him.

The news of Yu Wenliang's rebellion was reported back to Chang'an, and all his sons were punished, including Yu Wenwen, the Duke of Xiyang County.

Yu Wenwen's wife was called into the palace immediately, and was first conferred the title of Concubine Changgui, and within a few days, she was also conferred the title of Empress Tianzuo. She was 14 years old at the time.

In February, Emperor Tianyuan issued an edict to add a large character to each of the titles of the four empresses.

The original Queen of Tianzuo, Chen Yueyi, was changed to Queen of Tianzhong, together with Queen of Tianyuan Yang Lihua, Queen of Tianyuan Zhu Manyue, Queen of Tianyou Yuan Leshang, and the newly named Queen of Tianzuo. side by side.

Not only the court ministers, but even Yang Xuangan, Dou Wei, Pei Xiu and other people in the field finally knew why Emperor Tianyuan wanted to humiliate the ministers' family members.

The 14-year-old Tianzuo Queen has another identity. Her name is Yuchi Chifan, and she is the granddaughter of Yuchijiong, the governor of Xiangzhou.

The people who fought with Yang Jian for power before, Sima Xiaonan, Yuan Sheng, and Chen Shanti, were all far from their identities. Although Chen Shanti was also from Wuchuan Town, he was the head of Gao Huan's command and came from a humble background.

Yu Chijiong is different, he is the nephew of Zhou Taizu Yu Wentai, he comes from Wuchuan noble family, he is also a nobleman of Guanlong, his status is more noble than Yang Jian, his military achievements are illustrious, and his prestige is not comparable to that of Yang Jian.

On March 28th, it was another holiday. Cui Che didn't have time to go back to the mansion, so he went to Duke Sui's mansion alone. He lingered for a long time, but he couldn't climb the steps. He sighed and was about to leave when he heard someone behind him shout:
"You are Bo Ling Cui Che?"

The voice was very immature, Cui Che turned around when he heard the words, and a young man came out from Sui Guogong's mansion.

The boy was born with good looks, not much worse than Cui Che.

"I saw you when Li Yuantong sent you out of the house, and I just saw you hesitated outside the door, but something happened?"

Cui Che didn't answer right away. Looking at the young man's age and the fact that he called Li Yuantong by his name, he already had a guess in his mind, so he asked for confirmation:
"I'm Cui Che, may I ask if you are a son-in-law?"

"I'm the second son of the mansion, named Ying. If Cui Lang doesn't give up, you might as well sit in our courtyard for a while. You and I are about the same age, so we can get close."

Pu Liuruying, Yang Jian's second son Yang Guang invited him.

In the corridor of Suiguogong Mansion, Yang Guang and Cui Che walked together, and smiled as they walked:

"After Cui Lang came to the house that day, when my father taught me, he often used Cui Lang as an example, saying that you will become a great tool in time, and I need to learn more."

Cui Che didn't expect that he would become the child of someone else's family that Yang Jian said.

"Sui Gong (Yang Jian) ​​is absurd."

"Cui Lang don't need to be more modest, my father's eyes are like a torch, and he rarely misses it."

When the two returned to their residence, Yang Guang finally asked the doubts in his heart:

"Now my family is in dire jeopardy, others are afraid to avoid it, why does Cui Lang hang around outside the house, not worried about getting into trouble?"

In the past two years, Emperor Tianyuan devoted himself to making enemies for Yang Jian, and even had murderous intentions for him, which was hardly a secret in Chang'an City.

"Che came here for congratulations, but he was worried that he would disturb Suigong, so he didn't come through the door."

11-year-old Cui Che made a surprising statement, and 12-year-old Yang Guang asked:

"Why does my family like it?!"

"Since the Great Empress of Tianzuo is established, there is no longer any fear of her life."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Emperor Tianyuan was suspicious of Sui Gong, which is well known in the world, and the Duke of Shu (Yuchi Jiong) is in charge of the land of Hebei, and his nephew also controls Qingzhou. With such power, if Sui Gong is not restrained, how can the young master be able to secure the country."

"Cui Lang is really knowledgeable!"

Yang Guang praised, but then changed the topic and asked:

"Cui Lang is from the Kanto region, why did he come to my house to congratulate him instead of going to Xiangzhou to worship?"

Feeling Yang Guang's scrutiny, Cui Che pondered for a while before replying:

"Che usually seldom speaks, and he is the most refrained from exchanging shallow words, but today Erlang treats me sincerely, and Che is not willing to lie.

"Nowadays, Suigong is in the court, and Shugong is a foreign herder. Once the mountains collapse and the two lords fight, it is inevitable that Suigong will coerce the emperor to command the princes, and Shugong will control the people in the east of the Guandong to obtain the wealth of the whole land, and there will be a big battle.

"If you make a wrong mistake, you will never be able to recover. Che doesn't know Yu Chijiong, but he knows that he is the master of the public. He is here today to show his heart. The third house of the Cui family in Boling is willing to be driven by the public." !"
