Zhu Changxiao's version of the Sui Dynasty

Xiao Jue, the seventh prince of the Liang Kingdom, went on a mission to Guan Nei. It was originally a happy event for everyone to reunite with Xiao Jun and Xiao Yu, but when he mentioned Emperor Xiao Ming of Liang Xiao Kui, the faces of the seventh prince suddenly became much more solemn, which made people feel a little sad. Feeling worried

"Firstly, it was to visit my brother-in-law and sister; secondly, my father's condition was getting worse day by day, and the imperial doctor was at a loss what to do, so he only looked forward to seeing his third sister and eighth brother again."

When Xiao Jue said this, Xiao Jun and Xiao Yu's faces darkened, they were surprised and felt uneasy in their hearts. Only then did

Yang Guang understand that the seventh prince Xiao Jue's trip was because Xiao Ming Emperor Xiao Kui of the Liang Kingdom was seriously ill. Wanting to see Xiao Jun and Xiao Yu for the last time, and perhaps the succession to the Liang Kingdom's throne.

Yang Guang said:"Since the emperor's father-in-law is seriously ill, I should inform my father and let the princess return home to visit relatives. But since my brother-in-law is here, he has to stay at my house for two days anyway."

"Well, that's fine. I have just arrived in Daxing City and have never visited here before. I have to trouble my brother to report on my return home."

Yang Guang hosted a dinner in his house to entertain Xiao Jue, and Xiao Jue went back to the guest room to rest. Although Yang Guang drank a few glasses of wine, he was still worried about the matter of regaining the Liang Kingdom.

Standing alone in the courtyard, Looking up at the stars alone, Zhuge Ying came up from behind and asked softly:"Your Highness, why are you still resting so late?

Yang Guang said:"Recently, my father is planning to regain the Liang Kingdom. I can't even hide from this matter. Sir, can you give me some advice?""

Zhuge Ying touched his beard, smiled slightly and said:"What's the difficulty? A good strategy is right in front of you."

"What good idea?"

"Isn't the seventh prince Xiao Jue already here, using Princess Jin to return to his hometown to visit relatives to persuade Liang Guo to surrender?

Yang Guang's eyes lit up and he asked,"Let a woman lobby Liang Guo?""

"Although it was said that it would be unseemly for a woman to go as an envoy to the Liang Kingdom, but now that the time had come, the princess was the one to go."

"From the looks of it, it’s time to visit the Dragon Pond and Tiger’s Den."The two talked deeply for a long time.

At dawn the next day, Yang Guang took Xiao Jun around Daxing City in the capital, and then took Xiao Jun to the palace to meet Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian and report Xiao Jun's return to his hometown to visit relatives.

At this time, Shangshu Zuopu Shesu Wei was chatting with Yang Jian and Queen Dugu in the palace. When he saw Xiao Jue, Yang Jian admired him very much. Although he was a little angry, he was handsome and elegant, and had some official appearance.

Xiao Jue After telling Emperor Liang Xiao Kui truthfully about his condition, Yang Jian twirled his beard and realized that his father-in-law was seriously ill, so Concubine Xiao should be allowed to return to his hometown to visit her relatives. He then looked at Empress Dugu, who said:"Since my father-in-law is seriously ill, let Concubine Xiao be allowed to visit her relatives." Princess, please return to your hometown to visit relatives. Besides, Xiao Yu has not seen his father, the emperor, for many years since he came to Sui Dynasty. Emperor

Wen of the Sui Dynasty thought so, and said:"Then let King Jin prepare and accompany Concubine Xiao." Prime Minister Su Wei, who was sitting aside, suddenly remembered that when

Anping Wang Xiao Yan and the second prince Xiao Gu tried to obstruct their marriage, he said:"I will speak frankly. I have heard that there are still ministers in the Liang Kingdom." He urged Chen to fight against the Sui Dynasty. If the King of Jin went there, he would be kidnapped."

"Um."What Su Wei said was exactly what Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was worried about. Emperor Wen said:"In that case, King Jin should not go and let Xiao Yu accompany the princess back home to avoid any unexpected events."

Queen Dugu and Su Wei also agreed to this matter, and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty graciously agreed to allow Xiao Jun and Xiao Yu to return home to visit relatives. Yang Guang and Xiao Jue thanked them and returned to their homes to prepare for visiting relatives.

Wait for two After the people left, Yang Jian saw only Empress Dugu and Su Wei. Taking advantage of Xiao Jun's return home, Yang Jian said to Su Wei:"When Concubine Xiao returns home, she must be accompanied by an envoy. I want Cui Hongdu to go on an envoy again. What do you think?"

Su Wei said:"A few days ago, your Majesty discussed the strategy of the southern expedition with Gao Jie, and I was also present. Now that we have this opportunity to cross the river, it is better to send a capable minister to take the opportunity to survey the hydrology and topography of the Yangtze River for future southward march."

This reminder reminded Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty of his long-planned dream of reunification."What Aiqing said is exactly what I want. It is my long-cherished wish to recover Jiangnan. I must take this opportunity to inspect the terrain of Jiangnan again.""

"I wonder who the emperor wants to send?" Su Wei asked

"Many people have presented me with strategies to defeat Chen. Only Yang Su's strategy is the most agreeable to me, so I should send Yang Su there. By the way, where is Yang Su now?

Su Wei said:"Yang Su has been demoted and laid off because his words offended the emperor." Emperor

Wen of the Sui Dynasty was stunned for a long time, remembering the old incident when Yang Su was demoted and returned home because of his disrespectful words. He immediately drafted an edict on my behalf, activated Yang Su as appropriate, and named him the envoy of the Sui Dynasty. He went with Liu Ren'en, the general manager of Jingzhou, to borrow the opportunity. We will take this opportunity to examine the hydrology and topography of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and visit the internal affairs of Liang for future reference."

Su Wei immediately went out of the palace to draft the decree after receiving Emperor Wen's order...

Yang Guang and Xiao Jue had returned to the Jin Palace at this time. Xiao Jun was waiting for news from the palace in the living room. When he saw the faces of Yang Guang and Xiao Jue, he I know everything will be smooth sailing in the palace if my father and mother don't make things difficult for me.

"What did your father and mother say? Come and learn from me!"

"His Majesty's grace is so great that he certainly gave permission to return home."

"When will the seventh brother prepare to set off? Xiao Jue thought about it and said,"

It's better to set off as soon as possible.""

Yang Guang said:"How about this? Tomorrow is the first birthday of the little emperor grandson Yang Zhao. I want to gather some close relatives to celebrate, firstly to celebrate the little emperor's grandson's first birthday, and secondly to see off my beloved concubine and Xiao Yu."

Everyone was overjoyed, and Xiao Jun said:"Your Highness, please do not make the ostentation bigger, so as not to alarm your father, the emperor, and your queen, and accuse us of being extravagant."

"Don’t worry, I will arrange for Zhang Heng to organize it."

The next day, the Prince of Jin's Mansion was cleaned up. He did not dare to put up lights and decorations, but kept things simple. To celebrate the first birthday of the little emperor Yang Zhao, the Prince of Jin's Mansion did not dare to make a big deal, but only invited a few royal relatives to celebrate together.

Concubine Xiao invited Grandma Song, Princess Xiangguo, Princess Guangping and Princess Lanling to the house for a banquet. Together with Yang Guang, Xiao Jue and Xiao Yu, a total of eight people sat around to celebrate little Yang Zhao's first birthday..

Everyone was present, pushing cups and changing cups, drinking happily, and it was lively. Among the several princesses, only Princess Lanling was the youngest, whose nickname was Ah Wu. She had a cheerful temperament and made everyone happy. The seventh prince of Liang Kingdom, Xiao Jue, met Princess Lanling was very active, cheerful and lively, and she felt some inexplicable admiration in her heart. Her eyes followed Princess Lanling's every move, and she was fascinated.

Xiao Jue was fascinated by Princess Lanling, Princess Lanling He also spied on Xiao Jun from time to time. The two of them looked back and forth, and their expressions conveyed affection, until Xiao Jun saw the reason. At this time, after three rounds of wine and five dishes, Xiao Jun said:"Everyone has had enough wine, why not go to the garden to write poems.""

Princess Guangping said:"This is a very good suggestion. Take advantage of the moonlight night to write poems and see who has the best poems."Even Aunt Song was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

Everyone left the banquet and came to the back garden. Zhang Heng ordered his servants to prepare the table and place pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Xiao Jun said:"Ah Wu, you are the most lively today. How about letting Ah Wu write the poem first?"

Everyone responded casually. Princess Lanling was crowded to the table. She picked up a pen, looked up at the stars, and wrote:

The moon hangs down to attract the orchids, and the night fence is built in the silent bush.

The stars are solitary in the sky, and the love in Guanzhong They were sent to the end of the river.

Everyone saw it and said hello. Xiao Jun deliberately brought her together and said:"If you come from the pass, who will pick up your love in the south of the Yangtze River?" This made Princess Lanling a little embarrassed. She hugged her twice and said,"Sister-in-law, how can I be seen by others if you say this?""

Princess Xiangguo asked:"We, Ah Wu, are sending our love to the south of the Yangtze River. Which talented person can catch it?"

Yang Guang pushed Xiao Jue and Xiao Yu forward, and Xiao Yu gave in a little. Xiao Jue was in his prime years, so he hurriedly said:"Xiao Jue would like to write a poem, please accept it, sisters."

Everyone pushed Xiao Jue to the table again. Xiao Jue had a bookish spirit, so without thinking, he picked up his pen and wrote: The fragrance of the fragrant grass returns to the silent lamp in the night, and the beautiful woman sings quietly in her elegance.

The love of the mountains and rivers is hidden in the pass, and the waves of the river send messages to the orchid. Tomb.

Princess Xiangguo sighed:"Oh, this last sentence is a pun, is it directed at Ah Wu?"The crowd burst into laughter, making Xiao Jun feel that Xiao Jue and Princess Lanling are a perfect match. They are a perfect match for each other.

Under the moonlit night, everyone gathered together happily, and it was beyond words.

In the evening, Yang sent off several princesses. Guang and Xiao Jun were in the hotbed together, chatting on the bedside. Xiao Jun put an arm on Yang Guang's neck and said:"Tonight, I saw the seventh brother Xiao Jue staring at Princess Lanling, and he has a special liking for me. I am my concubine. I think these two are a perfect match"

"If the seventh brother really wants to do this, he might as well act as a matchmaker for the two of them so that they can get married. Yang Guang said.

Xiao Jun moved forward and lay on Yang Guang's chest:"Your Highness, do you keep your word?" Yang

Guang stroked Xiao Jun's jade wrist and said teasingly:"I will never break my promise. I will meet my father tomorrow morning to tell him about my marriage and to kiss him. Why not?""Xiao Jun was overjoyed, hugging Yang Guang and being intimate. The couple loved each other in every possible way, without going into details. This is what love means: a talented man loves a beautiful woman, and elegance and elegance lead to reality. It is worth noting that the road to the north and south of the Yangtze River is in vain, and there is a world of mortals in front of you.

The next day, Yang Guang came to the imperial study to meet the emperor. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, was reading the memorial and asked:"I have given permission for Princess Jin to return home to visit relatives. How are you going to prepare?"

Yang Guang said:"I don't bother my father to worry about you, I'm ready.""Yang Jian nodded as he listened, picked up his pen and reviewed the memorial. Yang Guang stepped forward and said,"My son, I have one more thing to do. Please ask for the emperor's decree."

"You can say whatever you want."

Yang Guang said:"Yesterday, the fifth sister came to the palace to play. I saw that the fifth sister and my brother-in-law Xiao Jue were very close to each other and they were a perfect match. Therefore, I wanted to tie the knot with Princess Lanling and kiss her."

"oh? Yang Jian put down his brush and said with a smile:"What the emperor said is very much in line with my wishes." Not only Xiao Jue will be used by our Sui Dynasty, but also if the entire Liang royal family is used by our Sui Dynasty, wouldn't it be better?

Yang Guang was stunned, bowed and asked:"My son is confused, please let me know clearly.""

Yang Jian said:"I decided to take advantage of Princess Jin's return to her hometown to once again survey the hydrology and topography of the Yangtze River to make early preparations for the future recovery of Liang State and the crusade against Nanchen."

Yang Guang's heart lit up, and he remembered Zhuge Ying's words that night. He pretended to be confused and asked tentatively:"My father is far-sighted and has the overall situation in mind. I admire him, but I don't know who my father sent to survey the hydrology and terrain?"

Yang Jian felt that the plan was thorough, and he was very satisfied with his ambition. He said:"Yang Su was demoted and he still submitted a memorial to attack Chen Zhan at home. He was quite insightful. I will re-employ Yang Su and order him to go."
