In the Qianqiu Palace, Yang Guang was sitting behind the Dragon Case, reviewing memorials. A chamberlain came to the door and reported: "For the saint, King Wei brought a gift when he entered the palace."
"Oh? What is it?" Yang Guang raised his head and looked over in surprise. Yang Ji was still here just now, why didn't he mention it?
The chamberlain quickly replied: "It is said to be the maps of the surrounding countries drawn by the Liangzhou Prefectural Mufu over the years."
"Pass it up!" Yang Guang stood up excitedly. Since Yang Ji took office, he has hired many surveying and mapping talents from the imperial court, saying that they would draw topographic maps of surrounding countries, but until now, there has been no movement.
Unexpectedly, he sent this picture to me right after he left. What's annoying is that he didn't seem to take it to heart.
"Here!" The chamberlain turned his head and waved behind him. Two chamberlains came in carrying a thick roll of white silk. The silk was at least a foot long and needed to be lifted at both ends to hold it steady. Then two more guards followed behind with a tall wooden frame.
Yang Guang stood up and walked to the side, pointed to a place with good light, and said, "Hang it up, be careful."
"Here!" The chamberlain put one end of the map on the wooden frame and slowly lowered the map. A huge map appeared in front of him.
Yang Guang took a few steps forward and took a closer look. He saw that the map was filled with mountains, rivers, countries and tribes. Even some important roads were clearly displayed on it, and some important locations were specially marked. . What's even more rare is that the painting technique is different from what is commonly used today. It uses different colors and lines to outline the mountains, rivers and rivers vividly, just like a sand table is presented in front of you (there was a sand table in the Qin Dynasty).
"This is a good thing!" Yang Guang carefully looked at this huge map, and the more he looked at it, the more excited he became. As an emperor, he really needed such a realistic topography. He wished that all the topographic maps of the Sui states had this "intuitive" ” presented in a way.
I took a general look at No Country, focusing on the Liangzhou section. The difference was that the map was several times clearer and more accurate than before.
Yang Guang even admired Yang Ji in his heart. When he was the general manager of Yangzhou in the south, he recruited scholars to compile classics, and also organized people to compile and draw maps of customs and products in various places. It is extremely difficult to obtain accurate and detailed data on mountains, rivers and mountains in various places.
On the Central Plains side, there are maps from previous generations that we can learn from, but Yang Ji's map is a map of unfamiliar and foreign terrain, and there is no way to learn from it. The difficulty can be imagined.
"Sage, there is also a volume of "Illustrated Book of the God of War" here." A chamberlain respectfully presented a thick and large paper book to Yang Guang.
Yang Guang took it and took a look. The cover was indeed "The Illustrated Book of the God of War" written by Yang Ji himself. He opened it and saw that the title page roughly introduced the origin of the book's title, which means that with this map and this After this picture is written, when the Sui Dynasty conquers the west in the future, he will get twice the result with half the effort, and can help the general in the Western Expedition achieve the name of the God of War.
This explanation is far-fetched, but it is full of beautiful yearning, willingness, and ambition to open up new territories, and is deeply appreciated by Yang Guang.
He continued to scroll and reached the table of contents. Based on the country, the following are detailed details of brief history, politics, customs, people's sentiments, beliefs, mountains and rivers, customs, etc. If he continued to scroll, he reached the detailed content. There were well-annotated maps and maps in the book. There are descriptions and colorful drawings of people of various ethnic groups wearing national costumes.
In Yang Guang's opinion, this picture and this book were very detailed, exquisite, and priceless pictures, but in Yang Ji's eyes, they were only the first edition and needed a lot of revisions. The reason why he hurriedly handed it in was because Pei Ju, who had not yet returned, was also ordered to collect information about the mountains, rivers, customs, etc. in the Western Regions. If Pei Ju could successfully compile and draw, and hand it in first, then there would be a large number of Kanyu divisions and scouts in Liangzhou. Many years of hard work will be wasted.
As a Liangzhou shepherd, he must take credit for these subordinates who risked their lives to collect intelligence and survey maps. Otherwise, he would be sorry for the unknown heroes who were living and dead.
Yang Guang looked through the "Illustrated Book of the God of War" and studied it carefully. He was full of praise after just reading a small part of Tuyuhun: "Many Kanyu divisions and scouts have contributed a lot. I want to reward these heroes."
Yang An joked at the side: "What the sage said is absolutely true, but I think that without King Wei's overall planning, I'm afraid there wouldn't be such an accurate map."
Yang An's simple words attributed the contributions of many Kanyu divisions and scouts to Yang Ji.
"Not bad!" Yang Guang was convinced when he heard this. When he organized scholars in Yangzhou to compile "Changzhou Jade Mirror" and "Diyu Tuzhi", he also spent countless efforts.
He closed the "Illustrated Book of the God of War" and placed it on the desk: "The existence of this "Illustrated Book of the God of War" can help me better understand the countries in the Western Regions. I will stay up all night reading it tonight."
Yang Guang said with emotion, suppressing the surprise in his heart.
This vajra slave is really unexpected every time! Just from these details, you can see that he is a rough and fine person.
He knows everything at a glance and shows his sharp edge.
Yang Guang originally thought that Mr. Yang was good at being rough and tactful, and that he needed to practice hard work, but unexpectedly he was hearing the thunder silently. Could anyone really know this kind of intelligence and carefulness in life?
In fact, there are many people like Yang Ji, but more than 90% of them talk rhetorically and make general plans, but are helpless on specific matters.
Although Yang Guang would not classify Yang Ji as one of the "Zhao Kuo, Ma Di", he always felt that he was young, energetic, frivolous, and careless. He felt that he still needed some experience before he could be entrusted with a bigger responsibility, and he didn't want to do it in a blink of an eye. Gave myself a big surprise.
At this time, Cao Li came in, presented a memorial, and said: "Sage, a memorial came from the Ministry of War, saying that the commander of the Binzhou Army, General Doulu Kuan, sent military information."
After Yang Guang sat back at the desk, he frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Cao Li replied: "The day after tomorrow, I will take my 10,000 soldiers to Binzhou Qiaoshan to suppress the bandits."
"Hey, Doulu is not good at wide-band soldiers. He is very proficient in this kind of thing of adapting to the wind and avoiding the important and taking the easy." Yang Guang snorted coldly and said in a cold voice: "I am just writing the memorial now, what did you do earlier? And? Or 10,000 soldiers to suppress bandits, are you kidding me?"
Yang Guang's face was as dark as water, and his heart was furious.
Just to wipe out a group of unknown bandits, 10,000 soldiers were used. People eat what horses chew. Don't they need military pay? Besides, these 10,000 soldiers are so powerful. Once they arrive at Qiaoshan, all the bandits will have already escaped. How can they give him a chance to wipe them out?
How does this look like suppressing bandits?
In the end, if there is any merit, 90% of it is due to killing the good and taking the credit.
The important thing is that news of the rectification of the Beijing troops has spread. Each battalion is gathering soldiers for inspection, but he takes them out?
What kind of operation is this?
Thinking of this, Yang Guang picked up a red pen, made a cross on the memorial, threw it down, and said to Cao Li: "Reject."
"Here!" Cao Li picked up the memorial and left quickly.
Yang An was also a good soldier, and he also controlled a group of royal soldiers. Seeing that Yang Guang looked unhappy, he took the opportunity to suggest: "Sage, it is said that King Wei went to the Ministry of War to ask for a lot of rosters. If nothing happens, We will set off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Now, the troops in the capital are in turmoil. How about sending a few more guards to protect Wang Zhouquan?"
Yang Guang nodded when he heard this. Such unparalleled talents must not be compromised. If Yang Ji made a mistake, the loss to the Sui Dynasty would be immeasurable. He thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "You pick ten good people from the Neifang Division." The bodyguards protect the vajra slave, if he makes any mistakes, you are the only one to ask."
When Yang An heard this, his expression became solemn, his heart became more awe-inspiring, and he had a little more appreciation for Yang Ji's strong connection with the saints. He cupped his hands and said, "I will obey the orders of the saints."
Yang An hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said: "The Neifang Division has also received information about King Qi."
Yang Guang frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yang An pondered for a long time and said softly: "It is said that the guards of the Neifang Division who were watching the Prince Qi's Mansion came to report that Yuan Min's wife, Yuan Weishi, has entered the mansion."
Yang Guang asked in confusion: "Yuan Weishi and Princess Qi are sisters, and they interact with each other. What is there to make a fuss about?"
Yang An said cautiously: "Sage, not long after Yuan Wei entered the palace, the princess entered the palace. But Yuan Wei has not come back yet, and the staff of the palace have also left the palace."
When Yang Guang heard this, he was greatly shocked, and his expression became terrifying and terrifying! At the same time, he roared angrily: "Does this evildoer still not know how to repent?"
After listening to Yang An's story, Yang Guang couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and slapped his palm heavily on the table. This plan is extremely powerful! The memorials piled up like a hill on the desk fell to the floor.
It is not without reason that Yang Guang is so angry. With the undercurrents surging in the world, even the emperor is walking on thin ice, but Yang Jian not only made him sad, but also hurt the country.
If it was just lustful and just having concubines, Yang Guang could bear it and even wished that his son would have more children. However, Yang Xian's habit of loving people/wives is not his fault alone, but harms the people and the people. The royal family and the Great Sui Dynasty.
Regardless of what was discovered by Yang Ji before, if he really had an unscrupulous affair with his aunt and was discovered by the Yuan family, what would happen?
Yang An on the side was also shocked. This was the first time he saw Yang Guang so angry. Even when the Renshou Palace coup happened, there was no anger, only calmness and calmness.
It can be seen that his son's failure to live up to expectations has hurt the emperor's heart.
"Sage, please calm down! Things may not be so bad after all." Seeing Yang Guang furious, Yang An couldn't help but sigh to himself.
Yang Guang barely calmed down the anger in his heart and ordered: "Go down and keep an eye on this traitor!"
Originally, he planned to let Yang Xian serve as the pastor of Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Youzhou, but after hearing the news, this idea faded away.
. . . . . .
At dusk, Yang Ji returned to Prince Wei's Mansion; after leaving Ganlu Palace, he first went to Zongzheng Temple to explain to Yang Gongren, then went to the Ministry of War to ask for the Binzhou Army roster, and then returned to Qianqiu Palace to ask Yang Guang for Doulu Kuan and others. The afternoon passed by sitting here and chatting about the evidence of the crimes of the senior generals. Then, I got a lot of rosters, accounts, and evidence.
After going around, what he got was the account books held by the fifteen guards behind him, which were as high as their chins.
Yang Ji led a group of guards along the corridor, intending to display these materials in the study room in the middle hall.
Just as he entered the south door of the atrium and answered the door, he saw from a distance a Suzaku guard wearing an emerald green coat and skirt, with a clear face and heroic appearance. He was talking to Qiushui, Qiuyue, Crescent Moon, and Meiyue. When he looked carefully, he saw that It was Liu Xu; Zhang Chuchen was also there, but her expression was gloomy, as if she was a little unhappy.
Seeing Yang Ji striding towards him, the women in the courtyard rushed over to greet him and saluted:
"Your Majesty."
"Alang"
"Sir."
Yang Ji nodded at them, looked Zhang Chuchen up and down, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"They said that they would take into account the safety of the king, aunt, second mother, and third mother in the future, and planned to learn martial arts from Zhuque Wei." Zhang Chuchen blinked his beautiful eyes and said displeasedly: "It's not that we look down on others, but They haven't seen blood, so if they fight for their lives, they are no match for the Suzaku Guard. How can they protect the king like this? The aunt and the third niang don't know martial arts, so let's ignore it, and the second niang is Sister Rumei who is proficient in martial arts, so why does she need them? Protection? It’s more like protecting them in turn.”
Zhang Chuchen was "jealous". Her "jealousy" had nothing to do with the love between her children, but the Suzaku Guard had always been the defensive force of the back house. She thought the Suzaku Guard had been replaced and felt unhappy.
Qiu Shui was not annoyed after hearing what Zhang Chuchen said. She bowed politely to Yang Ji, and then explained to Zhang Chuchen: "Commander Zhang, I agree with you, but we are not here to replace the Suzaku Guards." , but we want to have a certain degree of self-protection. If anything happens, we can also escort the aunt and others to a safe area so that the Suzaku Guards have no worries. The relationship between the two is complementary to each other, not replace."
Zhang Chuchen saw that Qiu Shui's words were reasonable and well-founded, rather than showing off or being aggressive. Otherwise, it would appear that she was being unreasonable, so he asked Yang Ji, "Master, is that so?"
"That's right." Yang Ji gave Zhang Chuchen a precise answer and explained: "The Suzaku Guard is irreplaceable. I asked Qiu Shui and the others to learn martial arts to supplement the Suzaku Guard. If an accident occurs, they Escort Aying to a safe place as soon as possible so that you can focus on defending against the enemy."
Qiu Shui is the head girl at the core of the inner house. She is quite knowledgeable and generous. Moreover, she has learned "house management", "money management" and "land management" from Xiao Ying since she was a child. If she comes to be a housewife in a middle-class family, it will definitely be more than enough.
This is one of the reasons why famous families pay attention to being well-matched.
If you marry a woman from a famous family, you will not only get a generous dowry, but also a lot of management talents who come from the dowry. As for borrowing her natal family connections, that is another matter.
In terms of force, a hundred Qiu Shui would not be enough to kill Zhang Chuchen, but when it came to the overall situation, Zhang Chuchen, who was a slave and killer, was far inferior to a girl like Qiu Shui.
This is not to say that Zhang Chuchen is stupid. On the contrary, she, Liu Rumei, Murong Xianyue, Liu Xu, Xian Yufang and others are very smart, otherwise they would not be as proficient in everything as special forces. The key is that the directions of study are different. What they learned in Yang Su Mansion was knowledge related to killing and concealing identities; as for "house management", "money management" and "land management", what does it have to do with killers like them? ? No need to learn. But if they focus on these, how can Qiu Shui compare?
"Oh! Then I understand." Yang Ji and Qiu Shui's words were exactly the same, but with different statuses, the effects were naturally different. Zhang Chuchen felt relieved after hearing Yang Ji's words.
Yang Ji comforted Zhang Chuchen and said: "Chuchen, you teach Qiuyue and the others martial arts and the ability to deal with emergencies. Qiu Shui and Qiuyue can also teach you how to run a household. If you get married in the future, you will always Those who want to be housekeepers should learn these things in advance so that they will not be deceived by servants.”
Yang Ji made these last words out of emotion. If Yang Lihua knew this, how could she have fallen to this point?
But his words about getting married not only made Zhang Chuchen's cheeks turn pink and his eyes lowered, but also Liu Xu and Xian Yufang's hearts trembled. They glanced at Yang Ji tenderly, and their cheeks were as white as snow. Blushing lightly, I thought sadly in my heart: Does the king/young master really want to marry me off?
Yang Ji saw the strange expressions of several girls. After pondering for a moment, he ordered the guards to send the rosters and information to the study outside the middle hall, and then assigned tasks to the girls: "Qiushui, Qiuyue, go get a basin of hot water and bring it to the middle hall." Outside the study, I need to wash my face. Murong Xianyue, Liuxu, and Xian Yufang, you two take Xinyue and Meiyue to the Zhuque Guards Camp to familiarize them with the daily training courses."
"Here!" The girls bowed in response and left quickly. Suddenly, only Zhang Chuchen was left.
Yang Ji asked with concern: "Chuchen, what's happened to you recently? Are you being bullied? You tell me, and I'll deal with him."
Ever since Mrs. Zhang remarried, Zhang Chuchen has been like a sick chicken. He is listless and half-dead all day long, as if he has lost his vitality and vitality, and is haggard at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although she didn't say anything and did things as usual, Yang Ji knew that she had a knot in her heart, and it was quite big.
Zhang Chuchen raised his eyes and glanced at Yang Ji. Seeing his gentle eyes and caring tone, his heart felt sad. She shook her head, but her eye circles suddenly turned red and she almost shed tears. She hurriedly turned her head away. .
"Oh, what's wrong with you?" Yang Ji panicked when he saw this. This girl has always been so strong, how did she become like this?
Seeing his helpless look, Zhang Chuchen's heart suddenly warmed up. She sniffed, stared at Yang Ji with red eyes and said stubbornly: "Young Master, I'm fine." As she spoke, her tears were uncontrollable and suddenly Big pieces fell down.
She wiped away her tears and swallowed: "Master, I don't know what's wrong, I just feel uncomfortable..."
Yang Ji was stunned and said softly: "Chuchen, what's wrong with you? If you're unhappy with anything, just say it and let me cum too... Ahem, let me analyze it for you."
Zhang Chuchen's pretty and bright face was also a little blushing, and he sobbed and said: "Sir, my mother-in-law married her adoptive father, and her lower body has been settled; and their love for me is far greater than before. , I should be happy, but I just can't be happy. Facing them, I feel like I am a superfluous outsider, and I feel so uncomfortable. Wuwuwuwu..." As he said that, his shoulders moved slightly, and he had already endured them. I couldn't stop crying.
"..." Yang Ji didn't know how to persuade him, so he consoled him blankly: "After all, they got married not long ago, and you just arrived from Liangzhou. They are worried that you have other ideas, so it is inevitable to be polite to you. After this, After a while, everything will return to its original state. Okay, I'll give you a few months' leave, and you can stay with them and slowly adapt to this new relationship."
"Master, don't you want me anymore?" As soon as Zhang Chuchen met Yang Ji's caring gaze, he couldn't bear it any longer. He suddenly squatted down and cried bitterly.
Yang Ji froze on the spot as if his acupuncture points had been stabbed. When he saw someone walking on the back of the fence, he waved his hand and told them to get out. Then he squatted down, feeling that Zhang Chuchen was almost done crying, and then said: "There is no such thing at all! You are indispensable, how could I not want you?"
"Really?" Zhang Chuchen raised his head and stared at Yang Ji.
Yang Ji said with laughter and laughter: "What I'm most worried about now is that you get married."
This is true. He is already used to these "little girls". If there is a sudden change of people, he really won't be able to adapt.
"Really?" Zhang Chuchen asked again, not sure.
"Of course." Yang Ji said and couldn't help but reach out to wipe the tears on the girl's cheeks.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he touched Zhang Chuchen's cheek, and the skin on the "little girl's" cheek felt soft and smooth that was unique to young girls. At this time, Chu Chu was pitiful, giving people the feeling of being at your mercy.
"Young Master..." At this moment, Zhang Chuchen felt the Young Master's slightly calloused hands falling on his face. He felt his breathing quickened and his heart beating continuously.
"I'm used to you and your existence, so how can I not want you? Don't worry, as long as you don't get married, you will always be the commander of the Suzaku Guard by my side." Yang Ji gave her a promise, and then said: " You also know that I like to lie to my enemies, but I have never made a mistake when it comes to my own people."
Hearing this, Zhang Chuchen's heart trembled, his pretty face turned red with embarrassment, and his mood brightened suddenly. He stood up silently and said with sobs: "Young Master, I, I, I, I'll leave first."
"Well!" Yang Ji also stood up and said: "Call all the gentlemen to the study room in the middle hall. I have something to tell them. By the way, I have a new mission. Maybe I will leave the capital tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. By then, you Harmony Moon goes with me."
Zhang Chuchen responded and said in a clear voice: "Young Master, I'm going." After saying that, he left as if he was escaping.
Yang Ji looked at Zhang Chuchen walking away and sighed secretly, feeling a little helpless.
The little girls in the house are becoming more and more attached to him, and all of them are a little clingy.
He didn't know what was good about him as a married man.
Isn’t that just being a prince? Isn’t it just that he looks more handsome? Isn't it just a little arrogant? Apart from these, it seems to be useless.
