At that time, King Qi, who was wearing a purple robe and a gold and jade belt around his waist, was silently in his study, looking at a map hanging on the wall. The map clearly marked the deployment of troops in Bingzhou and northern Youzhou.
He is tall and tall, handsome, and looks like a jade tree facing the wind; but in terms of moral character, Yang Jian is not qualified to compare with Yang Zhao. Because he provoked Yang Ji, Yang Guang knew what was going on with his son. For the first time, because Yang Jian allowed his men to steal Yang Ji's horse, Yang Guang personally beat him up and cleaned him up. Those civilian officials who did evil things; the second time was when Yang Jian asked his men to help him hunt for women, and he hunted the wives of Qin Qiong's cousins. Later, because of Yang Ji's intervention, he was exposed to Yang Guang again, and Yang Guang beat him up and cleaned him up again. Visited Prince Qi's Mansion once.
Yang Jian suffered two big losses and learned to restrain himself. However, his desire to be a prince did not die due to house arrest, just because the previous generation was the best example. His uncle Yang Yong had been the prince for twenty years. , wasn’t it turned out to be that he was crippled by his grandfather?
My father could afford to wait, why couldn't he, Yang Jian, wait?
Yang Jian's personal ethics are not good, but his talent and intelligence are quite good. Why does he need the pedantic and old-fashioned Li Gang to teach him? However, Li Gang was loyal to his duties and did not teach in every class regardless of rain or shine. Yang Jian had to endure it and scolded his mother afterwards. Later, the mastermind Qiao Ling suggested that Yang Jian be more respectful and obedient to Li Gang and use Li Gang to "change him". "Convey it to Yang Guang and change the image bit by bit.
With Li Gang's continuous endorsement, Yang Guang was really relieved. Except that Yang Jian was not allowed to leave the government, everything else was the same as usual. There was no shortage of staff and officials, and he was even allowed to recruit and recruit troops on his own.
This is not because Yang Guang favors him, but because the right to open the government is a characteristic inherited from troubled times. The purpose is to train the royal family's children to manage politics, coordinate politics, and command troops, so that they can defend the country when the country needs it. , The ability of the tripod to determine the universe will not lead to the shocking words "Why not eat minced meat".
At this moment, a maid came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Chief Qiao is here."
Yang Jian raised his head, with a hint of sinister look in his sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Let him come in."
After a while, the mastermind Qiao Ling quickly walked in, cupped his fists and said, "I've seen the king."
Yang Jian stared at Qiao Lingze and asked, "What should I say?"
Qiao Ling said: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess visited King Wei last night and stayed in King Wei's mansion for half a night."
Yang Jian walked away and asked, "Do you know what you said?"
Qiao Ling replied: "My subordinates didn't break into the princess's mansion, so I don't know the details. But this morning, I discovered that several other princesses went to the eldest princess's mansion together."
Yang Jian pondered for a moment and murmured: "My aunt has always been at odds with Prince Wei's palace, so why did she stay for most of the night? Is it because of Li Min's official career?"
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. He waved his hand and said, "Continue to send people to keep an eye on it, and then call some gentlemen and generals to come over."
Yang Jian knew the importance of help. Since he still wanted to win the heir, he would naturally cultivate his own power. In addition to the Qi royal family, he also worked hard to develop peripheral forces and win over courtiers.
As for the four aunts, they are also on his list of favors, because in addition to being the direct daughters of the royal family, the people they married have strong backings. For example, Xiao Jue, whom Princess Lanling married, was a descendant of the Xiao family and married to Princess Xiangguo. Li Changya is a branch of the Li family in Zhaojun, and Yuwen Jingli, who is married to Princess Guangping, is the nephew of Yuwenbi. Although Princess Yang Lihua of Leping no longer has her husband's family, she has a deep relationship with Yang Guang. She is also the person Yang Guang respects most after the death of his parents.
Even if these aunts cannot be won over, if they have a good impression of Yang Jian, they will be an invisible but huge political force.
"Your Majesty, Yuan Weishi asked to see you, saying that we have something important to discuss." At this time, a maid outside the door reported.
"Oh?" Yang Jian's eyes shone brightly, and a bag was quickly lifted up from his crotch.
Yuan Wei was his aunt and the concubine of Wei Chong. She married Yuan Min the year before last and became Yuan Min's second wife. This girl is as beautiful as the country and the sky, and she is charming and charming. She is exactly the kind of girl Yang Jian likes, and he seduces her.
Qiao Ling saw a black line, looked away, coughed a few times, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, Yuan Wei is the eldest daughter-in-law of Yuan Long, after all, don't go too far."
Yang Xian glanced at Qiao Lingze lightly and said sadly: "You think I do? Aren't I just trying to win over Guanlong Yuanshi and Yuanshou? For our great cause, I even used my beauty and body. You Do you think it’s easy for me? I’m already like this, so why don’t you try harder?”
"..." Qiao Ling was speechless.
How can you win over people like this?
If Yuan knew about it, it would be great if he didn't turn against you. How could he sacrifice his life for you?
At this moment, Pei Gai, Huangfu Chen, Chen Zhiwei, Liu Badao, Liu Wuzhou, Zhang Jincheng, and Master Liang all came in and saluted: "See you, Your Majesty."
"Sit down!" Upon seeing this, Yang Jian had no choice but to suppress his imminent emotions, sat down, and said to everyone: "In the early morning, the imperial court issued an order for military reform. Yang Su and the Ministry of War will next carry out the 70-year-old military reform. Wanjing's troops went into battle."
Looking at everyone, Yang Jian continued: "At the beginning of the Han Dynasty's rebellion, the imperial court could not even raise 100,000 soldiers. It can be seen that eating short quotas and drinking soldiers' blood has become the norm for the 14th Battalion in the capital. If this investigation continues, there must be something A lot of people are unlucky.”
Qiao Ling was silent for a moment and said: "If you follow the law and don't blame everyone, will the Ministry of War not know this truth? Will the Ministry of War go into war?"
"This is not important. What is important is that this is our opportunity." Yang Jian looked at Liu Badao, Liu Wuzhou, Zhang Jincheng, and Liang Shidu, and said, "Even if the imperial court will not investigate thoroughly, there will still be incidents. There are a lot of vacancies, and when the time comes, I will find a way to recommend the four of you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Liu Badao, Liu Wuzhou, Zhang Jincheng, and Master Liang were all overjoyed when they heard this. They took refuge in Yang Jian. They originally wanted to find a job to advance to the rank, but after a year or two, they became nothing but evil slaves. incident, coupled with the fact that Yang Xun beat Ku Di Zhongqi, who had been following him for many years, to death in order to evade responsibility, they were so heartbroken that they wanted to leave more than once. Now after listening to Yang Xian's words, everyone feels that good days are coming.
Yang Jian said in a deep voice: "Aye attaches great importance to this matter. Not only did the Ministry of War and the General of the Twelve Guards work together to investigate, but Yang Su was also fully responsible. In addition, my Uncle Wang Wei may also be involved. After all, he There is also the position of right guard general, so this time, it is very likely that strict inspections and strict employment will be carried out. I can recommend you, but whether you can get a good position depends on your ability. You go down first to recuperate. Rui, don’t move around lately.”
"Here!" The four generals saluted, stood up and left happily.
When the four generals left, Yang Jian's eyes were lost for a moment. His aunt's graceful figure seemed to appear in front of his eyes. He felt uneasy and his face paused. He quickly dismissed it from his mind. He held the pen in his palm and wrote it on the rice paper. One stroke at a time, the word "Yang Ji" was written.
After Yang Xian finished writing, he picked up the red pen and prepared to cross the word "Yang Ji". Before he started writing, he paused and put down the pen again.
Yang Jian had mixed feelings about this cousin. He was annoyed that he had ruined two of his good deeds and caused himself to be punished by his father, but he also admired his abilities, envied his coolness in doing whatever he wanted, and hoped that he would be on his side. If Yang Ji is on his side, it means that his father has Yang Su. In addition, it is possible to help him win over Yang Zhiji, Yang Lun, Yang Jing, Xiao Shi, Pei Shi, and Dugu brothers...
He said to Qiao Lingze: "King Wei is deeply trusted by Aye and holds a key position like Liangzhou Mu. We have to find a way to win him over."
Qiao Lingze showed a thoughtful look on his face, stroking his beard and saying, "Winning over King Wei?"
"That's right!" Yang Jian nodded and said, "King Wei is the rising star with the most fame and the most holy family in our Sui Dynasty. Even proud people like Yang Su are full of praises. Judging from his achievements, Wei The queen will be today's Yang Su; it is only a matter of time before he becomes prime minister, do you gentlemen think we can win him over?"
Qiao Ling shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile: "How can we win over King Wei who is a saint?"
Yang Xian was astonished when he heard this, and then said: "Qiao Manchao's civil and military affairs, who is not Aye's person?"
"Your Majesty, I have been paying attention to King Wei in my humble position, and have also discussed it with Brother Pei, Brother Chen, and Brother Huangfu." Qiao Ling said: "King Wei has a strong heart and would rather break than bend, but because of this, he is favored by the saint. He is a close confidant of the saint. , honor and disgrace all come from the saint, and the saint is in his prime years, so it is impossible for him to participate in the dispute between the king and the prince. If the king rushes to win over, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating. "
When Yang Jian heard this, he looked at Pei Gai silently.
Pei Gai cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, what Mr. Qiao said is reasonable. Your Majesty can't come forward to win over you, but you can secretly add fuel to the flames to deal with Yu Wenshu. King Wei has cut off people's wealth and disabled his sons. Once Yu Wenshu gets a foothold, he is bound to start a war. revenge."
"In that case, let's forget about King Wei for now, but will he become an obstacle to us?" When he mentioned Yuwenshu, Yang Xian showed a strange smile. Yuwenshu should be his biggest gain before coming here. , and also the person Yang Ji pushed towards him.
In the past, Yuwenshu was of course partial to him, Yang Jian, and tried to speak for him when the position of crown prince was undecided. However, after the dust settled, he fell silent. However, after the martial arts fraud case occurred, Yuwenshu completely moved closer to him. I have to say it was an unexpected big gain.
"Definitely not now, but it will be hard to say in the future!" Qiao Ling frowned, bowed his hand to Yang Jian, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the saints are in their prime. What a great plan!"
"Your Majesty, what Mr. Qiao said is true!" Huangfu Kan also saw that Yang Jian had been "advancing" recently because the saint had withdrawn the supervisors, and even turned into Benjili when it came to women's sex. He quickly stood up and gave advice: " The saint can wait for twenty years, so why should the king be in a hurry? I humbly suggest that the king calm down and create a reputation as a virtuous king."
"What you all said makes sense, but you ignored a very crucial issue." Yang Jing took a deep breath, and the worry in his tone could not be concealed: "You asked me to sleep on my laurels, hide my capabilities and bide my time, no problem. But the prince, he is not the former prince. Ah? He is modest and prudent by nature, proficient in civil and military affairs, and is praised by everyone."
Although his elder brother Yang Zhao is not good-looking, he is like an ascetic monk who cannot be criticized in every aspect. If he keeps keeping a low profile and bide his time, Yang Zhao's status will become more and more stable, and his existence will become more and more important. The lower.
Qiao Ling thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. The sage hesitated for a while before appointing the crown prince and weighed it again and again before appointing the prince as the crown prince of the Sui Dynasty. It can be seen that the sage has no distinction between elder and younger in his heart."
Yang Jian frowned and said, "But the civil and military officials don't think so."
"Your Majesty, the key to whether you can enter the East Palace is the Sacred Heart. Other people's opinions can only be used as a reference. Your Majesty, it is best to quietly gather momentum at this time. When the saint's ban is lifted, you can walk around the palace more, so as to Full of filial piety." Huangfu Chen said softly.
Yang Xian nodded and said: "It's okay, as long as it's not too deliberate?"
Huangfu Kan looked at Yang Jian helplessly. He went to visit his parents to show his filial piety. Who cares whether he did it intentionally or not? Who dares to say that he did it deliberately?
"What the king said is not unreasonable. If you are too deliberate, you will be inferior." Chen Zhiwei, who was next to him, pondered for a moment and said: "The king cannot go out now. You can ask the princess to fulfill your filial piety. She usually goes to the queen to walk around more. The queen She must be very happy. The princess went there diligently, and the king will go there in the future. There is nothing to say to others, let alone any deliberate remarks."
Yang Jian's eyes lit up and he said, "Mr. Chen, this strategy is feasible."
Chen Zhiwei continued to suggest: "The capital is about to be moved, and this period of time is also what the king must fight for. If possible, I humbly suggest that the princess enter the palace immediately."
Qiao Ling took a deep look at Chen Zhiwei and thought to himself: This bastard must have known that Yuan Weishi had arrived, so he deliberately sent the princess away so that the king and Yuan Weishi could indulge as much as they wanted.
Yang Jian's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "It makes sense, it makes sense."
Qiao Ling sighed secretly when he saw Yang Xian's cheerful look.
Paper can't cover up the fire. If Yuanshi notices this, what's the point?
Watching Chen Zhiwei stroking his beard and amusing himself, Qiao Ling felt depressed and thought to himself, "The king is surrounded by such flattering and slanderous ministers. How can he achieve great things? He must find a way to get these people away. Yes, Li Gang is it." The best blade.”
. . . . . . . . . . . .
At the same time, Yang Ji, who had been captured by Yang Guang, walked towards the official residence of the Ministry of War of Shangshu Province.
The official residence of Shangshu Province is not far from the palace city, just to the east of Guangyangmen Long Street. The official residences of the six ministries are based on Guangyangmen Long Street. The highest-ranking officials are on the street, and to the east are the civil servants, who are next in rank. It is the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of War is ranked fourth, followed by the Ministry of Punishments and the Ministry of Works.
When Yang Ji arrived at the Ministry of War, it was already midnight. Under the guidance of a petty official, he entered the hall of the official residence of the Ministry of War.
As soon as I arrived under the eaves, I heard a quarrel coming from far away in the hall.
Yang Ji turned his eyes and couldn't help but gasped. In addition to the Minister of War Xiao Jue, the Minister of War Duan Wenzhen, the Crown Prince Yang Zhao, the Minister Ling Yang Su, the King of Ande Yang Xiong, there were also many military bosses. Among them are General Shi Wansui, the leading general of the Left Army, Zhang Jin, the General of the Left Guard, Yu Wenshu, the General of the Right Guard, Yuan Shou, the General of the Left Yiwei, Li Jing, the General of the Right Wuwei, Yu Zhongwen, the General of the Right Yiwei, and Zuo Xiao. General Wei Han Senshou (the younger brother of Han Qinhu) and General You Xiao came to protect the children...
Under the generals are Zuo Wuhou General Tu Wanxu, You Xiaowei General Sun Sheng, Zuo Xiaowei General Jing Yuanheng, Right Tunwei General Xin Shixiong, Zuo Wuwei General Cui Hongsheng, Right Wuwei General Zhao Xiaocai...
Gather the stars and shine brightly.
As far as the Sui Dynasty was concerned, there was never a shortage of brave generals who were good at fighting. It can even be said that although the Sui Dynasty was not founded for a long time, there were many famous commanders and generals. In addition to the well-known Yang Su, Yu Qingze, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi and others, there were also many brave generals. For example, Da Xi Changru who fought with two thousand against one hundred thousand, He Lou Ziqian and Yin Shou who fought at the Weizhen frontier fortress, Li Chong and Liu Fang who were both wise and brave...
The result of such a large number of famous generals is not complicated. First of all, before the founding of the Sui Dynasty, the north and the south were fighting and fighting. The predecessor of the Sui Dynasty was the Western Wei and Northern Zhou Dynasties, which were all eras of constant war. In addition to fighting the Southern Dynasties, the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty, they also had to fight against the foreign tribes in the north. Under the attack of the three parties, the Western Wei Dynasty, Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the early Sui Dynasty, which were in the middle, paid special attention to military affairs.
Those famous generals who came out of the war not only fought on their own, but also worked hard to train the next generation; their descendants, men and women, practiced riding and shooting from an early age, while the women looked after the house, and the men followed their elders at a young age. After decades of fighting in battle formations, as long as you don't die, you can always find some famous generals.
None of these famous generals in the hall are born, they are all famous generals who have been trained since childhood and then fought through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Ru Shi Wansui, he is a son of a general. He fought with his father Shi Jing in the Battle of Beimang Mountain at the age of fifteen, and played an important role in the battlefield. He then fought countless battles. After he accumulated countless experiences, When he went to Guazhou to serve, he often went deep into the Turks and plundered sheep and horses. No matter how many Turks there were, they did not dare to resist him, and the Turks did not dare to go south to herd horses.
The rest of the people are almost the same; even Yang Su is no exception. Yang Su was poor and frustrated when he was a child, but during the debate, his tribe thought that he was the boastful Zhao Kuo. Only his uncle, Pushe, the minister of the Wei Dynasty, Yang Kuanhui knew a hero by sight. Later, at a young age, he fought many times with Yu Wenxian, the God of War of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. He made great achievements every time, so he was highly regarded by Yu Wenxian, who taught and guided him step by step.
It can be said that the most important thing about these famous marshals and generals in the hall, in addition to their extraordinary talents, is good luck. They are tougher than other dead geniuses, so they became famous marshals and generals in bloody battles. .
Of course, they are awesome, but Yang Jian is even better. Therefore, Yang Jian was able to control all these generals and make them work obediently for him.
When Yang Ji walked to the door, the light inside dimmed slightly, the quarrel suddenly stopped, and a pair of sharp eyes instantly looked at Yang Ji.
In an instant, Yang Ji's hair stood on end, as if he was being targeted by a group of ferocious beasts.
