The palace quickly returned to normal, and the wall that Guo Yilang smashed into Pang Ben was repaired by the craftsmen working day and night, with no trace of damage at all.

The female thief Yuwen, oh no, should be called Chen Shuyi. She was sent to the Yeting Palace, the palace maid training center, to receive a ten-day training. After the training, she can come to Yuehua Palace to work.

By that time, she will be a qualified female official, nominally under the jurisdiction of the eunuchs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but in fact she is similar to a palace maid, serving people.

In Daxing Palace, except for people surnamed Yang and people who are related to people surnamed Yang, everyone else is a servant.

The reason why Chen Shuyi was left alive after Dugu was of course because of her special background.

Empress Dugu had already explained this to Yang Ming in great detail that night.

Want to know how special Chen Shuyi is? This started nine years ago.

In the twelfth lunar month of the eighth year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign, three armies of the Sui Dynasty crossed the river. On January 20 of the following year, the Chen Dynasty was destroyed. The battle between the Sui Dynasty and Chen Dynasty lasted only two months.

The Chen Dynasty's land area at that time was equivalent to Soochow during the Three Kingdoms period. The territory was not small, but it was very vulnerable.

The reason is that Chen Shubao, the famous Empress Chen in history, took more than half of the credit.

But in the tenth year of the founding of the Emperor, just one year after the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen,

Due to Yang Jian's excessive suppression of the Jiangnan gentry group in the past year, various rebels rose up in the old land of the Chen Dynasty, and most of these rebels were supported and controlled by the Jiangnan gentry group.

At this time, two big figures, one civil and one military, emerged.

Wu's leader was the current Shangshu Youpushe, who was also the second-in-command among the officials, Yang Su, who led the army to suppress the rebellion and quickly wiped out all the rebels.

But this is not a long-term solution. After all, the Jiangnan gentry group is still there. They are still holding back their evil secrets and can pull out a few more puppets to rebel at any time.

Until his father Yang Guang was appointed as the general manager of Yangzhou and took charge of Jiangdu, in just one year, he calmed down the entire Jiangnan gentry.

Why does dad have this ability?

The big reason lies in Yang Ming's biological mother, Princess Xiao of Jin.

The Xiao family was born in the Lanling Xiao family. Lanling Xiao has been a top family throughout the history of China. Until now, many people with the surname Xiao in the south are descended from this branch, including those with the surname Xiao. Xiao originated from Yu Xiao.

Concubine Xiao is a direct descendant of Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty. Before the Chen Dynasty, the Liang Dynasty had a wider territory, covering almost the entire area south of the Yangtze River.

In other words, Concubine Xiao is also a subjugated princess.

As the son of a subjugated princess, Yang Ming spoke for Chen Shuyi that night, which was actually completely reasonable for Empress Dugu.

The Xiao family has great influence in Jiangnan, and it is precisely through this relationship that Dad can calm down the entire Jiangnan in a short period of time with his gentle policies.

As the conquered princess of the Chen Dynasty, Chen Shuyi also had great influence in Jiangnan. Although Empress Chen was kidnapped by Yang Jian and taken to Daxing, the Chen family's basic base in Jiangnan was still there.

Chen Shuyi's biological mother was called Shen Wuhua, the granddaughter of Chen Baxian, the founding monarch of the Chen Dynasty, and Chen Shubao was the son of Chen Baxian's nephew, Emperor Chen Xuandi, so their union was basically a bit of incest.

Here’s the key point: Chen Shubao’s mother is Liu Jingyan, the granddaughter of Xiao Yan, the founding monarch of the Liang Dynasty, and Yang Ming’s mother, Xiao, is the great-great-granddaughter of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang Dynasty.

Did you see it? Yang Ming and Chen Shuyi still have a somewhat thin blood relationship.

There are various marriages and complicated relationships among the Jiangnan gentry group. Even if they are usually infighting, they are very united when facing the Guanlong Group in the north.

Therefore, Chen Shuyi cannot be killed. She can do whatever she is asked to do, but she cannot be killed.

This is related to the little self-esteem left after the entire Jiangnan gentry group has been suppressed by the Guanlong Group for many years.

It's very complicated to say. In short, father Yang Guang is now the spokesperson of the entire Jiangnan clan, and he likes Jiangnan very much.

Even the accent has changed, and he speaks authentic Wu Nong's soft language. The last time they met, Yang Ming had a hard time communicating with him.

Can you imagine what Yang Guang felt like when he said, "Good boy, boom, boom, boom!"

This is why Queen Dugu left Chen Shuyi with Yang Ming, because the court needed Jiangnan, Jiangnan needed comfort, comfort needed Yang Guang, and Yang Ming was Yang Guang's good third son.

Early that morning, Aunt Lou came again, saying that she was summoned by Empress Dugu.

In fact, even if Aunt Lou didn't come, Yang Ming would go to Yong'an Palace to pay her respects, but this time, he would also go to Yong'an Palace for breakfast.

The grandfather and grandson ate thick porridge with a few stacks of pickles, and watched the seven or eight eunuchs and maidens busy in the hall, laying out a complete picture of the Sui Dynasty in the center of the hall.

Yang Ming immediately understood what was going on.

This is about choosing a fiefdom for yourself.

Sure enough, Empress Dugu wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and immediately a palace maid handed her a tray with a ruler on it.

The ruler is of course one foot long, about 30 centimeters.

Well, Empress Dugu really felt sorry for him. A few years ago, Yang Yong's eldest son Yang Yan was granted the title of King of Changning. When granting the title, he only used a small awl. He was a big ruler.

This is how Dugu Jialuo treats people differently. Those who are the direct descendants are the direct descendants, and the concubine is just a puppy.

Duguhou handed the ruler to Yang Ming and said with a smile: "Go and have a look for yourself. Try to get as close to grandma as possible. This way it will be convenient for you and me to visit your grandfather and me in Daxing."

Um? Didn't you just pick it randomly? Why can't I get closer?

To be honest, Yang Ming also hopes to go to the south, because most of the great battles in the late Sui Dynasty occurred in the north. Li Yuan, Wang Shichong, Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, Dou Jiande, Wang Bo, and Wagangzhai all fought in the north.

At that time, there was a big rebel leader in the south named Xiao Xian. He was also from the Xiao family in Lanling. He had to call his own mother aunt. Considering this relationship, he should be fine staying there.

Until now, Yang Ming had never thought that he could change history because he was just a prince.

Don't take the prince too seriously, he can't influence anything.

Yang Guang's three sons, the eldest son Yang Zhao, the second son Yang Jian (lan), and the third son Yang Ming, could not be his successor in terms of seniority.

The two of them have always been with their parents, and Yang Ming doesn't have an advantage in terms of their close relationship.

What's more, there is no need to take over. Dad's generation will end the disaster of the Sui Dynasty.

Don't even think about changing Yang Guang. A guy who has passed four undergraduate courses in one semester and sits in the leisure area in the back three rows and dozes all year round. Want to change a tyrant who is as famous as Xia Jie and Shang Zhou in history? Not a dream?

Yang Ming took the ruler, took off his boots, stepped on the map, and went straight to the location of Daxing in the capital and squatted down.

He is familiar with this map. Isn't it an ancient Chinese map?

Isn't Daxing City the future capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an, and Xi'an in China?

On the city wall of Xi'an people is the train of Xi'an people... That's it.

Daxing City, the name sounds really rustic.

In June of the second year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign, Yang Jian built a new capital south of the old site of Han Chang'an and named it Daxing because Yang Jian's first title when he was young was called Daxing County Duke.

The reason why the Great Sui Dynasty is called the Great Sui Dynasty is because Yang Jian's father, Yang Zhong, was granted the title of Sui Guogong during the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Yang Jian also inherited this title when he became an adult, and finally changed it to Sui Dynasty, which was the country's title.

The name of the capital and the name of the country all carry Yang Jian's distinctive personal characteristics.

From this point, we can see that Yang Jian is a very self-centered and domineering figure.

The topic has gone too far, which one should I choose? Yang Ming used Daxing City as the center to radiate to the surrounding areas and began to select his own fiefdom.

First of all, you cannot leave the Guanzhong Plain.

In ancient times, anything was needed, except water and food.

The Guanzhong Plain has fertile land, convenient transportation, and is surrounded by dangerous mountains and rivers.

The Wei River crosses the entire Guanzhong Plain from west to east. The main stream and its tributaries, the Jing River and the Beiluo River, irrigate the fields on both sides of the river and mainly produce wheat and copper ore.

To the north of the Guanzhong Plain is the Loess Plateau. At this time, the Loess Plateau was still a fertile land thousands of miles away, but Yang Ming didn't want to choose because it was too close to the Turks.

To the west is the Hexi Corridor, which is not an option. It is too dangerous due to the chaos of war.

To the south is Sichuan. The road is difficult to walk and too far. It is still the territory of Yang Laosi, the king of Shu. Yang Xiu is not an ordinary person. He is the one with the highest martial arts in the Yang family. He is very fierce, so it is better to stay away.

To the east? Just kidding, Henan was the main battlefield in the great chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and you couldn't go there even if you were beaten to death.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Yang Ming's eyes lit up.

Yes.

Hedong County, also known as Yongji City in Yuncheng, China, is located east of Daxing and across the Yellow River. The distance between the two places is less than 200 kilometers.

Have you seen the Roar of the Lion of Hedong? The heroine Liu is from the Hedong Liu family, a wealthy local family, and Liu Zongyuan is also from Hedong Liu.

Is this close enough? It is located in the northeast of the Guanzhong Plain and close to the Yellow River. It is a great place.

Moreover, Yang Ming knew that in history, Li Yuan, the turtle grandson, took this route at the beginning when he attacked Daxing. After fighting for a long time, he could not defeat Hedong County, so he detoured to the direction of Hukou and attacked Daxing.

If he is sealed here, he will inevitably have to fight with Shimin's children in the future?

What the hell!

After Yang Ming was silent for a long time, he gritted his teeth and fucked him, right here!
