In the evening of that day, after get off work, Dugu Huaien went to ask for an audience with the emperor.
At this time, Yang Guang was practicing calligraphy with Yu Shinan and Wang Zhuoling. He was a cultural person, and most of his free time was either related to women or books.
"I'm very busy, please tell me if you have anything," Yang Guang held Wang Zhuoling's arm in Liangyi Hall and was instructing him to copy a copybook with a rather impatient tone.
Dugu Huaien was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yu Shinan and then at Wang Zhuoling, "Aren't you busy?"
After Yang Guang saw the other party's expression, he immediately became angry, slapped the table and said:
"Say something quickly!"
They are cousins or relatives, and Yang Guang also knows what kind of character Dugu Huai'en is. Although his brain is not bright, he is definitely loyal.
So Dugu Huaien said: "I want to change the position of prison gate commander Webber. Other places also need to adjust the rotation of guards. I came here to ask for your Majesty's instructions."
The palace is different from other places. You can adjust it, but you have to let the emperor know.
Hiss. There is something wrong with this kid. Yang Guang loosened his grip on Wang Zhuoling's arm and frowned:
"Who should I replace him with?"
Look, people really asked, right? Yang Ming was too sloppy in doing things. Fortunately, I thought carefully and discussed it with him in advance.
"According to my observation, Weber Zhong has an out-of-touch personality and is not stable enough. He is not suitable to be in charge of the access control of the four palace gates, so I want to replace him with someone who is cautious and steady."
Yang Guang grinned. He still understood his silly cousin. He had never taken the initiative to ask him for advice on anything before. There must be a reason for his sudden visit today.
"Who taught you to say that? Prince?" Yang Guang lied to him directly.
Um? He actually guessed it? Dugu Huaien was a little embarrassed to reply. Answering yes would be equivalent to selling Yang Ming. Answering no would be bullying the emperor again. It was a dilemma.
So he chose to remain silent.
Silence is tantamount to betraying Yang Ming. There is nothing we can do about it. Your Majesty is too smart to guess it all.
Yang Guang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, and waved his hand: "Change, let's go out."
"Well," Dugu Huaien turned and left.
This is where people stand out. Others would say: "I'm resigning," but Dugu Huaien doesn't, never has.
Yang Guang himself didn't mind, because Dugu Huai'en had the impression in his mind that there was something wrong with his brain.
That's why he was asked to guard the palace gate, because he couldn't do complicated things.
In the Sui Dynasty, not all officials were cunning and clever. Some of the officials, regardless of their background, were really worse than ordinary honest people.
But people can reincarnate, which is also a skill.
Of course Yang Ming knew that he couldn't hide this kind of thing from his father, but there was really no need for him to tell Yang Guang in person about such a small matter as changing the prison order. When the father and son got along, they could only talk about big things and had no time to talk. Little things.
In today's East Palace, Empress Xiao replaced him with a group of maids. There were more than 3,000 maids and slaves. Including the left and right guards and Yang Ming's original maids and slaves, there were nearly 20,000 people.
To be honest, he was really not used to having so many people waiting for him, and even though there were so many people in the East Palace, Yang Ming still felt lonely.
Maybe it's because it's so big here.
Or maybe this position is inherently lonely.
Twenty-four maids would be responsible for sleeping with him in the dormitory and surrounding corridors where he and Yang Yinjiang slept. That is to say, they would wait until Yang Ming fell asleep and sit around on their knees until Yang Ming got up.
In the middle of the night, when Yang Ming needed to pee, someone would bring you a chamber pot. If you were thirsty, someone would bring you water. In short, the service was done properly.
There is also a special kind of palace maid, called the admonition girl, who is to prevent Yang Ming from having sex too frequently. The admonition girl is directly connected to the queen. If Yang Ming does not listen to the advice, people will sue the queen.
Of course, if you don't have sex for a long time, the admonition girl will also advise you and will observe your entire sexual intercourse process.
This is a set of things left by Dugu Jialuo. It was originally intended to restrain Yang Yong, but it had no effect at all.
The crown prince Yang Rui, to be more precise, the King of Qin Yang Rui. He and the King of Luoyang Yang Qi were direct children, so he was also in the Guanghua Palace. He slept not far from Yang Ming and his wife, and he was also accompanied by a palace maid.
The next morning, Yang Ming was woken up hazy, and then a maid came forward with a chamber pot to serve him, then washed and changed clothes, preparing to attend the court meeting.
Yang Ming still loves beds, and he really can't sleep well on this big bed.
With two dark circles under his eyes, Yang Ming left Guangtian Palace before dawn and went to Daxing Palace to attend the court meeting.
The entire journey was six miles, so Yang Ming lay on the sedan chair and caught up on his sleep.
When they arrived at Tongxun Gate, Dugu Huaien was waiting there in person.
He was not on duty last night, but he still slept in the official office, waiting to tell Yang Ming this morning that I had taken care of the matter. How about it? Awesome, right?
The new prison guard was born into the Hongnong Yang family, Yang Hongsheng, the eldest son of Yang Yue, the Duke of Cangshan County. He was one of his own. He was the same generation as Yang Yinjiang and called Yang Yinjiang his sister.
This kid is only nineteen years old this year and is already a cavalry general.
There is no way, this is the advantage of being born early. Yang Yue's eldest son is only nine years old this year, so he can only give priority to his older son.
Yang Ming stopped the sedan chair, and then waved to Yang Hongsheng, and Dugu Huaien followed him.
"As per your request, how about Yang? Are you satisfied?" Dugu Huaien said with a smile.
Yang Ming said angrily: "What did your Majesty say when you went to see him?"
"Your Majesty didn't say anything," I can't lie to the emperor, because that would be deceiving him, but it should be okay if I lie to you, right? Dugu Huaien thinks so.
"Haha." Yang Ming said angrily: "Then I thank you."
Dugu Huaien said directly: "How are you going to thank me?"
Damn it! Do you really dare to open your mouth? Although the genes of the Dugu family are not very good, your mother is from the Cui family of Qinghe. How could you give birth to such a straightforward son?
Yang Ming grinned and said, "How do you want me to thank you?"
Dugu Huaien came over with a mysterious face, put one leg directly on the sedan chair, and whispered:
"Tell His Majesty, can you find me a more leisurely job? In this position, I have to tie people to death."
Isn’t it enough time to look at the gate? How free do you want to be?
Yang Ming said: "Do you already have a place you like in your heart?"
"You're smart, no wonder my aunt likes you so much," Dugu Huaien said with a smile: "The prison gate of the imperial city is at the foot of the emperor. It's not easy to work. Let me go to the prison gate of the city defense. I heard that the position is very free. I can arrive in one day. Nothing to do tonight."
Yang Ming was shocked. If I arrange this for you, will the Dugu family blame you or me?
They say people walk to higher places, are you jumping straight down? How many levels is this skipped? Let me do the math.
Damn, the jump from the third level to the sixth level, three levels in a row?
Yang Ming reprimanded him directly: "Get out of the way and tell His Majesty yourself, I don't accept this kind of thing."
"Isn't it interesting enough? I helped you," Dugu Huaien was actually a little unhappy.
Yang Ming was completely speechless: "I'll say hello to Duke Zhao first. If he agrees, then I have nothing to say."
"He is my equal, how can he control me?" Dugu Huaien said unconvinced.
Dugu Zuan, Duke of Zhao, is the eldest son of Dugu Luo, the Dugu boss, and Dugu Huaien is the son of Dugu Qi, Dugu Zheng. They are indeed cousins and equals.
I'm really impressed by you, you are so pure, pure Dugu family genes.
"Okay, okay, I understand, just step aside." Yang Ming said something nice and sent Dugu Huaien away. Then he called Yang Hongsheng over and said, "Go to the East Palace during the day. Your sister has something to talk to you about." Explain."
Yang Hongsheng was born as a concubine. Ever since Yang Yinjiang got married, he didn't dare to call her "auntie" anymore. Now that the prince himself called her that, he was embarrassed and said hurriedly:
"I'll go as soon as I can after my humble duty. I'll wait for the Crown Princess's arrangements."
Yang Ming nodded and immediately ordered the sedan chair to move forward.
There is something very happy about today's court meeting.
According to the report sent by the Ministry of War last night, Su Lie captured Yiwu City and the losses were very small, with only more than sixty people killed.
Su Lie did not force himself this time, but first brought two hundred people, dressed as business travelers, took the customs clearance documents issued by Zhangye County, and successfully sneaked into Yiwu City, making King Yiwu really think that they were doing something. Business.
Then at night, Su Lie led his men to seize the gate of the mountain city, led the remaining army into the city, and rushed directly into King Yiwu's palace, killing them all.
Either Su Lie is a natural-born general who cannot lead an army without ruthlessness. The Sui Dynasty is bound to conquer Yiwu and intends to incorporate it into the territory, so the original Li dynasty must be cleaned up.
After the death of the king, the remaining people were leaderless and surrendered to Su Lie one after another.
When Mai Tiezhang heard the news, he was very happy and praised Su Lie at the court meeting.
Yang Guang was also very happy, so he gave a doctor the rank of official, which was the fourth from the bottom among the ranks.
Pei Ju said: "Yiwu has been destroyed. We, the Sui Dynasty, should set up counties as early as possible and incorporate them into the territory to prevent the Turks and other countries in the Western Regions from interfering in negotiations."
The country of Yiwu is gone, but the land of Yiwu is still there. It is now an ownerless land in name, so many people will definitely be concerned about it. Pei Ju's concern is very necessary.
Yang Guang nodded and said: "Send a strict official to appease the local people, set up Yiwu County, abolish all the original seven cities of Yiwu, and expand Yiwu City."
The seven cities in Yiwu are similar to the towns in the Sui Dynasty. There are not many people. Yang Guang's plan is right. Demolish these seven cities and drive all the people to Yiwu City, which will facilitate centralized management.
When the Sui Dynasty captured Yiwu, they originally planned to use it as a place to collect tariffs in the Hexi Corridor. If there were other places besides Yiwu for the caravans to rest and rest, then the uniqueness of Yiwu would not exist.
Therefore, all the wells in the seven cities will be filled to prevent tax-evading business travelers from drinking water here.
You can only eat, drink and sleep in Yiwu. This is why Da Sui must occupy this place because of the money.
So who will be the prefect of Yiwu County? The people in Guanzhong will definitely not be happy. Whoever wants to go to a place where birds don't shit can go, but I won't go anyway.
So I chose over and over again and chose a person from Taiyuan.
His surname was Wang Wei. Historically, he served as the magistrate of Taiyuan County in the late Sui Dynasty. He discovered that Li Yuan had the intention to rebel, so he plotted to kill Li Yuan, but he was killed by Li Yuan after the incident was revealed.
This is a loyal minister.
