In the side hall of the Ganlu Hall of the Daxing Palace, Yang Guang was sitting behind the Imperial Case, holding a memorial in his hand and reading it carefully. This was the plan submitted by Yang Su to rectify the Beijing army: to use the method of selecting fronts and disarmament to demobilize the old and weak in the army. , streamline bloated institutions, and cut out scum officers in the name of anti-corruption; the remaining old generals will be intensively trained, and unqualified and incompetent officers will be eliminated through training.

In addition, Yang Su also proposed the idea of ​​transferring Beijing troops to defend the frontiers. Doing so would have at least three major benefits: First, taking advantage of the opportunity of mobilizing the entire battalion, corruption in the battalion such as short quotas would be exposed to the world, and the court would be able to act openly and honestly. To rectify them; the second is to use the method of long-distance marching to eliminate soldiers with insufficient physical strength; the third is to maintain strong combat effectiveness in small-scale conflicts after the Beijing soldiers arrive at the border.

From the perspective of the imperial court, this plan has no problems and has many benefits. However, this plan is tantamount to overthrowing and rebuilding the capital, which offends the interests of too many people. Once promoted, the resistance will far exceed that of moving the capital. The discussion is unprecedentedly powerful.

After Yang Guang finished reading, he put the memorandum on the desk, looked at Yang An who had just returned, and asked in surprise: "Auntie welcomes the vajra slave? Did you read it wrong?"

"Saint!" Yang An cupped his hands and said, "When I came back, I saw Hao Yuan, the deputy general manager of the palace, and at the street they were talking about, there were eight strong and eye-catching female guards standing. The capital at the moment seemed to be... Except for the Wei Wang family, no one else has such female guards."

"Pfft!" Thinking of the "beautiful maids" in Prince Wei's palace who were unique and had different styles, Yang Guang couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud.

Speaking of which, Yang Guang also had a share of the "beautiful maids" in Yang Ji's family. It was precisely thanks to his contribution that the current huge number was achieved.

Queen Dugu is fair and just. Since she has given Yang Jim a beautiful maid, there is no reason why she should not give her five sons as gifts. Therefore, each palace has the same style of maids, and there are quite a few of them.

Yang Guang was extremely disgusted and annoyed to see him, but it was a gift from his mother and he couldn't let it go. Thinking that Yang Ji was a young and ignorant child who didn't know beauty or ugliness, he quietly gave away a few to him during the holidays. To Yang Ji, there was no reaction after seeing his mother, so he sent it again; when Yang Yong, Yang Jun, Yang Xiu, Yang Liang and others saw it, they also followed suit; over time, they were emptied, but Yang Ji's house became a Roshan concentration camp. .

Regarding this point, Yang Guang sincerely admired Yang Ji. It was hard for him to swallow when he saw it, but Yang Ji lived with so many "beautiful maids" every day and there was no reaction at all. It was really amazing.

"Sage, King Wei has arrived." At this moment, a chamberlain who entered the palace to report interrupted Yang Guang's thoughts.

Yang Guang nodded: "Xuan."

"Yes!" The chamberlain immediately turned around and left.

The Manlu Palace belongs to the harem. When Yang Ji was a child, Yang Ji could wander around as he pleased. Although Yang Guang now allowed him to come and go at will, he was an adult after all, and he would avoid all the taboos that should be avoided. When he reached the Manlu Gate on the boundary between the front hall and the back garden, he would not stop there. Before. When the chamberlain reported back, he stepped forward and entered the Manna Hall. When he saw that Yang Guang was wearing ordinary clothes instead of formal clothes, he knew better and cupped his hands: "I have seen my brother."

When Yang Guang saw Yang Ji, he couldn't help but smile. He stood up and motioned to the seat below him: "Sit down."

"Yes!" Yang Ji walked closer, took another look at him, and found that this guy seemed to be getting more and more handsome. Yang Guang, who was wearing regular clothes and a purple gold crown on his head, had clear eyebrows, a handsome figure like jade, and was very handsome. Presumably many passionate girls must have been fascinated by him when he was an official in Yangzhou.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Yang Ji shaking his head and staring at him, as if he was appreciating exquisite treasures, Yang Guang thought there was something wrong with his clothes and couldn't help but look at it.

"It's nothing." Yang Ji said, "Brother is becoming more and more charming. If you continue like this, won't other handsome men feel inferior to death?"

"Then let them die!" Yang Guang laughed loudly, stroking the neatly trimmed beard under his chin with contentment, and said narcissistically: "To be honest, I also feel that I am more heroic than half a month ago."

"It smells shameless." Yang Ji said, took a wooden box from Yang An and put it aside.

"Hahaha, it's hard to lose face when talking to such a shameless person like you." Yang Guang laughed heartily: "How about it, when you see me, do you, a beautiful man like you, have low self-esteem?"

"What's the point of bragging?" Yang Ji sat down angrily and said, "If you really have the ability, let's go to the south of Pingkangfang to inspect and see who the women who have met countless people say is more heroic."

"Just go, I'm afraid you won't succeed." Yang Guang said with a smile: "Although I have never stepped into Fireworks Willow Alley, I also know that women prefer middle-aged handsome men of my age and temperament."

"..." Yang An next to him heard a dark clue. Each of these two people was normal, but as long as they came together, they would often change.

Listen, how ridiculous is it that a dignified prince would invite the emperor to visit a brothel? However, this wise and powerful emperor acted like a young boy who couldn't stand the provocation of his generals, and refused to give in at all.

It was the late emperor who had foresight! When he was still alive, he said that King Wei was full of evil spirits, which would lead to the saint being corrupted by him, so he specially isolated them for a long time.

"You win." At this moment, Yang Ji had nothing to say. He gritted his teeth and said something cowardly. Yang Guang was almost as handsome as him, but he had a lot more maturity, experience, and superiority than him. The person's demeanor is indeed more charming than him.

When it comes to flirting with girls, he is really not that good.

"Haha!" Yang Guang glanced at Yang Ji triumphantly, as if to say: Boy, you are still young.

"I'm hurt and need comfort." Yang Ji said.

"Hey, are you still hurt? How can I comfort you?" Yang Guang pretended to think for a while, and comforted him with a smile: "Although you are far worse than me, you are still one in a million. Dragon and phoenix, there is no need to feel inferior, no need to feel inferior."

There was a burst of laughter, and Yang Guang was relieved. Without waiting for Yang Ji to fight back, he waved Yang An to retreat, and talked about business without any martial ethics: "Although Guanzhong is the capital of the country, there have been many problems since the founding of the country. All the contradictions in our Sui Dynasty They are all concentrated in Guanzhong. Not to mention the court, there are also many bandits supported by Guanlong nobles among the people."

When it comes to the warlord-like Guanlong nobles, Yang Guang and Yang Ji have the same attitude, which is to weaken them as much as possible. The two brothers have also communicated a lot over the years; when facing this little brother, Yang Guang has nothing to hide. In addition, he knew that Yang Ji was not a person who liked to beat around the bush, so he spoke very directly.

To put it bluntly, this kid will soon give him a solution. If you try to be subtle and covert, he won't understand.

Yang Ji hesitated when he heard the words. The topic came up too quickly, like a tornado, catching him off guard.

But now that the matter has come to this, he can no longer look for a place, so he can only follow Yang Guang's topic and say: "The world is unified, people are at peace, and people live and work in peace and contentment. Normal people will not become bandits, so bandits are just that small group of people." People. The people gathered in each cottage are at best local gangsters who are lazy and lazy. They cannot win over the masses of people at all. It is not difficult to wipe them out. "

"The reason why Guanzhong cannot be wiped out is that the state soldiers cannot leave the country. This restriction tightly ties up the officials and the army who really want to suppress the bandits. Once the bandits hide at the border of the two states, the army that suppresses the bandits will have no choice but to regret it. If they return, the bandits will recuperate and recuperate, they will cause harm to the countryside again. Secondly, each bandit branch has an inextricable relationship with the local officials. Whenever the court issues an order to suppress bandits, the bandit officials will notify the bandits immediately. As a result, the anti-bandit army returned without success; in order to cope with the situation, some local officials often blamed political opponents, often blamed the gentry who refused to pay him tribute, and often blamed the common people who owned the fertile land they coveted. When they arrested and killed By recruiting these people, you can not only deal with the imperial court, but also obtain tangible benefits. It can be said that you kill two birds with one stone. These two points are the fundamental reasons why Guanzhong suppresses bandits every year and has bandits every year."

"The reason why Liangzhou is bandit-free is that, first, it has lifted the ban on cross-border crossing; second, when suppressing bandits, the local government was not notified, but the military launched an attack. When local officials understood that the military was here to suppress bandits, , I wanted to notify the bandits, but it was already too late."

Yang Guang nodded silently. What Yang Ji said was very simple. It was also the reason why he asked the ten guards of the East Palace to take charge of exterminating the bandits in Guanzhong. He slowly said to Yang Ji: "After moving the capital to Luoyang, I am worried that someone will cause trouble in Guanzhong." There was a turmoil, so Shiming was asked to annihilate all the bandits in Guanzhong first; as long as the "bandits" were lost in Guanzhong, there would be people who would cause trouble in the name of "bandits" in the future, and it would be easy to find them. Vajra slave, Shiming It just started, what do you have to say?”

Yang Ji said: "If this is the case, then I suggest that Shi Ming remain in a stalemate with the bandits who started the war, and let the masters of the bandits look down on Shi Ming; wait until the capital is moved, and then finish the battle."

Yang Guang's eyes lit up and he asked: "You mean, let the 'bandits' become powerful and then let the capitalist bandits suffer the consequences?"

"That's right!" Yang Ji nodded: "On the way, I saw many soldiers led by the Ten Guards of the East Palace. It can be seen that Shiming has been fully prepared and knows very well about the bandits in Guanzhong. If he destroys these It should be easy to deal with the known bandits, but the bandits created after the capital is moved will be more difficult to deal with. Even if there are no bandits in the future, the purpose of cutting off the strength of some people will not be achieved. In this case, simply use the known bandits The name of banditry and Shi Ming's incompetence is used as bait to induce these people to increase their efforts in capital banditry. If they start when the time is right, these people will suffer heavy losses; it would be even better if they could get any evidence of banditry. "

Yang Ji paused for a moment and waited for Yang Guang to digest, then continued: "When I was suppressing bandits in Liangzhou, I obtained evidence of the crimes of the bandit officials from various villages. When these evidences were announced one by one, the people wanted me to kill these bandit officials. The bandit officials will be executed all over the house. I think this method can be used in Guanzhong and other places. As long as the majority of the people support it, the court will be right to deal with those officials who are complicit in bandits."

"This method is good, but I thought it wrong before." Yang Guang thought for a while, frowned and said: "After moving the capital, I planned to let Shiming stay in Guanzhong and take the opportunity to temper him, but after all, he has never fought a battle. Do you think he can do it?"

"I've never fought a battle or governed a place before, but I'm not doing well in the end?" Yang Ji smiled and said in an old-fashioned way: "Shiming, this kid has been an internal historian for so many years, and his level of government affairs is beyond compare. Doubt it; the only thing he lacks is actual military experience, but he is the prince, so he must be given a chance to prove himself. Even if he is in a hurry, and we elders are watching, how bad can the situation get? "

Seeing Yang Ji laying out his elders' names, Yang Guang couldn't help but smile: "Shiming is the crown prince of the country, so he should be given a chance to train. That's it. The next thing is related to military reform." , The purpose and intention of the military reform have been mentioned in the letter, so I won’t go into details.”

After a pause, he continued: "How did you consider recruiting bandits and refugees as soldiers in the first place? The more detailed you are, the better."

Yang Ji pondered for a while and then said: "Liangzhou has successively accepted millions of refugees and disaster victims over the years, and the refugees and disaster victims have been wandering for a long time before they were properly resettled. But no matter how tired they are, how hungry and cold they are, they always They have hopes for the imperial court and have never been like bandits. As long as the government provides appropriate relief, timely funding and resettlement, they will soon focus on restoring production and do not need official supervision at all. It can be seen that as long as they have hope and see the refugees and disaster victims If there is even a glimmer of hope, they will not become thieves; since they are all disaster-stricken people with good intentions, I have nothing to worry about when I include them in the army."

Yang Guang nodded when he heard this.

Yang Ji continued: "As for the Liangzhou bandits, some of them are ethnic minorities. They live a hard life. They not only yearn for the better life of the Han people, but also cautiously contact the Han people. But unfortunately, their goodwill not only failed In return, they were exploited by officials and profiteers because they looked different from the Han people. Some officials could not be exploited, so they forced some weak tribes to rebel and then led troops to annihilate them. When they reported the battle report to the court, some officials in the court did not know the details and These officials regarded them as heroes, which eventually brought them fame and fortune. However, they ruined the reputation of the court and further intensified the conflicts between the two ethnic groups. Some ethnic minorities were forced to survive by corrupt officials and had to become bandits. kind."

"The other group of bandits are refugees from the war years. In order to avoid the war, they fled into the mountains one after another. After annexing each other, they formed tribal cottages. Some cottages are self-sufficient, living a life where men farm and women weave. Although it is difficult, it is still manageable because they do not have to pay taxes. For this type of people, as long as they are persuaded with good words, they will live down the mountain and be close to the government's placement."

"Some cottages make a living by robbing homes and roads, and some even take money from Tuyuhun and Turks, work for Tuyuhun and Turks, and do their best to disrupt the order of Liangzhou. For these two types, I The principle is to use force to eradicate the captured bandits and use them as free labor. Some are sentenced to three years, some to five years, and some to ten years... In order to win amnesty and reunite with their families as soon as possible, these people all work honestly This method is slower than doing real work, so I opened the field army and slave soldiers to encourage people who were eager to get rid of their crimes and make meritorious service to join the army. As long as they made meritorious service in the war, their sentences would be reduced, and even if they died in battle, they would receive pensions. Under this policy, many people chose to join the army, and their families were taken hostage by the government, so they were very honest."

Seeing Yang Ji stop and listen carefully, Yang Guang looked thoughtful. After a while, he asked, "Is this the secret of your success?"

Yang Ji nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Vajra slave, your achievements are there. There is no doubt that I have nothing to say." Yang Guang waved his hand and frowned: "I also agree with your explanation of the refugees and disaster victims, but when it comes to thieves, you have ignored the most fundamental and most important thing. A fatal point."

After hearing this, Yang Ji became serious: "Which point?"

"Your thieves are different from my thieves. Your thieves have no background or background. If they are destroyed, it will be over. My thieves are different. Their backgrounds are surprisingly large." Yang Guang glanced at Yang Ji and continued. : "Of course, thieves are thieves, and killing them will bring great joy to the people, but can they join the army? After joining the army, will they be controlled by the people behind them again?"

Regarding the thieves in Guanzhong, Yang Guang had thought deeply about it and had his own opinions and methods of dealing with it. However, he knew that Yang Ji had many evil ideas and thieves, and he did not want his ideas to interfere with Yang Ji, so he followed Yang Ji's rhythm and said, "Silly!" "We will talk step by step, hoping that new sparks will be created during the discussion.

"Immigrate and garrison in other places." Yang Ji said: "As long as the leader of the thieves is killed, the little thieves will become a piece of loose sand. Each of them will be in danger. As long as they see the hope of survival, they will cooperate obediently. At that time, the court can kill them Immigrate to Youzhou and Jizhou. It may be better if a pattern of Guanzhong soldiers and Shandong generals is formed."

Yang Guang pondered for a moment and said: "The method of having me in you and you in me is indeed a good way to repair the rift that has lasted for hundreds of years as quickly as possible."

As an emperor, you must consider all aspects.

Yang Guang also wanted to promote Shandong generals to dilute the influence of the Guanlong nobles in the army. However, the Shandong nobles and Shandong nobles became complete losers in the war between the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi. Under the attack of the Guanlong nobles, the former Northern Qi The official families were reduced to small landowners. They were beaten to dust from under the clouds. They were very hostile to the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Sui Dynasty led by the Guanlong nobles, and they are still instigating and confusing the people to this day.

The Beijing army and the military government are both led by the nobles of Guanlong. As long as a Shandong general joins the army, he is often rejected by the generals and soldiers. The Shandong generals also use their pitiful arrogance and self-confidence to show their superiority, which creates a situation for both sides. disintegration and disharmony.

Let the Shandong generals go to the land of Shandong to recruit and control the army! I'm afraid it will be another East-West confrontation and a East-West war.

But if we follow Yang Ji's idea: forming a pattern of Guanzhong soldiers and Shandong generals in Shandong; forming a half-and-half pattern of east and west in the Central Plains, it may be possible to gradually ease the contradiction between east and west. In addition, the imperial court is in Luoyang, and there will definitely be no trouble. Big trouble.

Although the future of this method is uncertain, it is worth a try.

Jizhou was once the core of the Northern Qi Dynasty, it was located in the hinterland, and it was only separated from Xindu by the Yellow River. It was undoubtedly the best place to try it out. However, the general manager of Jizhou must be a reliable and trustworthy person.

Thinking of this, Yang Guang couldn't help but look at Yang Ji again: This guy is familiar with the way and is undoubtedly the best candidate. However, there are so many ghosts in Liangzhou that he can't do without this guy.

After thinking about it, he said: "I plan to try it out in Jizhou first. As for the candidate for the general manager of Jizhou, I think Bin Zhen (Yang Lun) is more suitable. After he has secured his position as the general manager of Jizhou, I will introduce the Liangzhou system. "

Yang Lun is now the general manager of Yanzhou. He took office when there was a flood in Shandong. Since taking office, he has been focusing on building the Yellow River embankment. Yang Guang went east to Luoyang a few months ago to check the construction progress of the new city. Later, Yang Lun At the invitation, we visited the Yellow River embankment. There are no engineering problems at all.

But Yang Lun, like Yang Ji, did not do anything stupid like a layman commanding an expert. The project of the Yellow River embankment was fully entrusted to Yan Bi; he was a general, and since he was so idle, he could simply be transferred to Jizhou.

"I think it works!" Yang Ji nodded. Yang Lun is also a great person in their family. It's not his turn to comment on his level. However, Yang Lun may not be able to master Liangzhou's tricks. After thinking about it, The suggestion was: "Since the implementation of the New Deal in Liangzhou, many mature New Deal talents have been produced. If necessary, a few can be transferred from Liangzhou to assist Brother Bin Zhen."

"Haha, heroes think alike." Yang Guang said with a smile: "Who do you think is more suitable?"

Yang Ji said: "Liu Quan, the former governor of Ganzhou, was a staunch reformer. Many of my ideas were tried out by him in Ganzhou, and many plans were formed and improved during his trials. He has rich reform experience, and now Serving as a guard in the Central Committee, there is basically nothing to do, it is a bit of a waste of talents."

After Liu Quan entered Beijing, he still had contact with Yang Ji. He always said that there were many bad habits and hidden rules in the central officialdom, and he was walking on thin ice every day, making his life very unhappy and far less comfortable than Liangzhou.

Yang Guang nodded when he heard this and asked: "What else?"

"Zhang Xutuo, Mai Tiequan, Wang Wei, Wang Bian, Gao Junya, Xue Shixiong, Li Jing, Zhang Dinghe, Yao Junsu, Wang Xingben and others are all qualified, but some of them are generals at the point of the confrontation between the Sui Dynasty and Tuyuhun. , Some people are building military fortresses between the border and the Great Lakes area. It is not suitable to mobilize them for the time being." Yang Ji looked at Yang Guang and said, "Although I am reluctant to part with it, if brother wants to mobilize people, I will also put the overall situation first. , but there is one person, even if you beat me to death, I will not let him go."

Yang Guang was speechless when he heard this. There were already a lot of things going on in Liangzhou, and you said that, how dare I steal people from you?

When he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but become curious. When he thought about the many civil and military positions in Liangzhou, his eyes couldn't help but widen: "The person you are talking about can't be Mai Tiezhang, right?"

"That's him!" Yang Ji nodded and said: "There are many civil and military personnel in Liangzhou, all of whom are top talents, but as far as Liangzhou's current situation is concerned, Lao Mai, who is good at causing destruction, is irreplaceable. The most important thing is, I don’t know where he is.”

Yang Guang stood up suddenly, stared at Yang Ji with shock on his face, and said incredulously: "Vajra slave, the wheat iron rod smells like you. I can understand why you won't let him go. But, but, he is your general, you This guy who is the head coach doesn’t even know where he is? You, you, you, this is how you lead my troops?"

"Yes! This is how I lead my troops." Yang Ji said matter-of-factly: "I also know that this is not good, but we have never lost. Do you think it's strange?"

After hearing this, Yang Guang, who was extremely nurturing, was so angry that he couldn't speak. He didn't even know what to say. After a long time, he breathed out and said: "Vajra slave, do you know that you Do you really need a beating now?"

He walked around anxiously for a few times, then stopped and pointed at Yang Ji: "If it hadn't been for you, if you hadn't just come back today, I would have punished you. Just listen to me and I won't talk about this next time. If you are so evil, I will never let you go, otherwise, I, Yang Guang, will take your surname."

"Then your surname is not Yang?" At this moment, a gentle voice sounded, and at the same time he spoke Yang Ji's thoughts.

The two brothers looked over and saw a woman in a purple palace dress with a phoenix hairpin on her temples walking out of the side door. When they saw the brothers, their eyes widened like bullfights, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. .

Yang Ji quickly stood up, bowed and saluted: "I have seen my sister-in-law!"

The person who came was none other than Queen Xiao. She smiled and said in return, "Erlang is not in a good mood these days. Don't mess with him."

Yang Guang raised his eyes and stared at his beloved wife: "Where are you from?"

Empress Xiao glanced at Yang Guang and said helplessly: "You are an emperor after all, so why are you arguing with a child?"

Yang Guang was also drunk and said angrily: "Child? He is already so old, but the child is still about the same as his father!"

As he spoke, he sat up angrily.

Empress Xiao ignored him, smiled faintly, and nodded to the people behind her. The waiter quickly put the table he was carrying in the middle, and the other three people placed their embroidery piers on the edge of the table, two on the north and one on the south.

After they were busy, the little palace maid carrying the tray hurriedly came up, placed the exquisite snacks one by one, and then bowed and left.

Without saying a word, Yang Ji sat down on the embroidered pier in the south.

Yang Guang glared at him, said nothing, and sat on the embroidered pier on the left side of the north and south.

Empress Xiao sat on the right side next to her. She lifted a sapphire flowing jade pot and said to Yang Ji opposite: "Vajra slave comes back today. It's time to go back and have dinner with aunt. But this is also home. You can have a few drinks and chat." To catch the wind and wash away the dust."

With that said, he picked up the jade pot, poured a cup for Yang Guang first, and then poured a cup for Yang Ji. With his delicate hands, he pushed it forward.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Yang Ji saw that the wine in the cup was as red as blood and had a sweet smell, so he knew it was good wine. Seeing Yang Guang's arrogance, he deliberately said, "The wine is good, but it's useless." Get the right glass! I think it’s best to use a luminous glass to drink this wine.”

"Why?" Queen Xiao looked at Yang Ji curiously. Although Yang Guang didn't speak, he could still stare.

Yang Ji picked up the wine glass, shook it gently, and said: "Grape wine is bright red in color, sweet and delicious. It would be unworthy of a man to drink it. If it is served in a luminous cup, the color of the wine will be the same as blood. Drinking is like Drink blood. Only in this way can you get the taste of it."

Empress Xiao didn't believe it, so she quickly got up and asked someone to bring the luminous cup, and poured the wine into the luminous cup. She was startled when she saw that the red wine pulp looked like blood when reflected in the wine cup.

Yang Ji said with a smile: "The so-called 'glow-in-the-dark cup of grape wine, if you want to drink pipa, drink it immediately.' That's it."

Yang Guang heard that "the luminous cup of grape wine will make you want to drink the pipa immediately". He couldn't hold himself any longer and asked, "What's the name of this poem? Where's the whole poem?"

Yang Jin thought: "The luminous cup of grape wine, if you want to drink, play the pipa immediately. Lord Don't laugh while lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times?"

Yang Guang said with emotion: "Okay, Lord Don't laugh lying drunk on the battlefield, how many times have you fought in ancient times?" The grape wine paired with the luminous cup is like blood, and with this passionate poem, it makes the blood boil! Vajra Nu has a brilliant literary talent, It can be said to be unparalleled in ancient and modern times and shocking!”

"That's true, please!" Yang Ji raised his glass to signal to his brother and sister-in-law, and drank the wine in one gulp.

Yang Guang was also bored, feeling very different.

Empress Xiao held the wine glass and wanted to take a sip with them. However, after being so exaggerated by them, she saw that the wine was as red as blood and she couldn't drink it anymore.

Yang Guang took the jug from her hand and filled it for himself and Yang Ji. The two brothers drank three glasses of each other. Yang Guang inadvertently looked at the wooden box Yang Ji put aside. He had been curious about this thing for a long time. , I felt that the content inside should be "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but Yang Ji didn't say anything. He directly asked: "Where is the subsequent manuscript of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"

"Bring it here!" Yang Ji stood up and took the wooden box, opened the lid, then presented the box to him and said, "This is the manuscript, I plan to print it."

"When I finish reading, I will return the manuscript to you." Yang Guang picked up the manuscript without raising his head. It was the manuscript that had been bound in order.

I wanted to watch it after dinner, but I couldn't help it.

Empress Xiao also had the same mentality. She thought that Yang Ji was not an outsider, so she smiled at him, got up, moved the embroidered pier to Yang Guang, and looked at it together.

The couple just put Yang Ji aside.

"..." Yang Jida was surprised. Yang Guang liked reading historical books. He knew that, but he never expected that Queen Xiao was also a bookworm.

He thought for a while, then stood up and said: "There are nine glances in total. Take your time and look at it. I'm going home first."

Without raising his head, Yang Guang waved his hand to indicate that he could leave.

Queen Xiao smiled, stood up and said to Yang Ji: "It's getting late, let's go back and reunite with my aunt first."

"Thank you, sister-in-law, for your consideration." Yang Ji bowed his hand.

Then, he left the Manna Hall.

. . . .

Without outsiders, Yang Guang and his wife were almost close to each other.

The two of them are very experienced in reading books. Every time they read Yishu, they only read the plot of the story the first time without asking for a deeper explanation, which is a bit like swallowing the book. If the book is valuable, they will chew it carefully and slowly the second time. Slow tasting.

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is definitely a valuable book, but this is the first time they read it, so they read it very quickly.

I don't know how long it took, but Yang Guang pushed the manuscript in front of Queen Xiao and stood up, feeling both enlightened and a little lost.

How do you describe this feeling? It's like the book that the reader has been keeping for half a month was slaughtered by him in one go.

It feels great.

But new expectations came again.

After a while, Queen Xiao let out a long sigh with unfinished meaning, and said with a wry smile: "There is nothing down there anymore, I guess I won't be able to sleep again."

Yang Guang sighed and said, "I have no choice but to wait any longer. Fortunately, he has already arrived home, but I can write safely at home."

He looked at the manuscript on the table and said, "Let's start again and read it carefully!"

Queen Xiao pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay."

The couple got together again.
