The five Yang Guang brothers were originally the children of a not very prominent family in the Guanzhong Group. Their grandfather Yang Zhong was only one of the twelve generals.
But suddenly, the brothers suddenly became princes, which made it difficult for them to adapt.
Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo were caught in the cracks, repeatedly turning danger into safety, and finally achieved the great cause of founding the country, allowing their children to reach the sky in one step and become nobles.
Yang Jian and his wife relied on strength and luck, but among their children, except for Yang Lihua, who took the most credit, the other nine did not put in any effort. They were just sitting back and enjoying the success. The road to usurping the country and ascending to the throne was dangerous. Nine of them Don't know at all.
This is similar to the nouveau riche. The achievements a person can have in this life have a lot to do with you. You are a pig butcher. Even if you are made a county magistrate, you are still a pig butcher.
When Yang Jian ascended the throne, the characters of his five sons had already been shaped. Yang Yong was not a prince, and no one raised him as a prince when he was a child, so he could not hold on to this position.
Yang Jun, the third child, is born with a love for money. Even though he is no longer short of money, he still thinks of ways to make money.
The fourth and fifth sons were two pure playboys. After suddenly gaining power, they still could not change their playboy nature.
Therefore, Yang Jian was lucky to have a son like Yang Guang, but unfortunately, his son could not get rid of his nouveau riche nature.
Arrogant people sometimes have a low self-esteem.
Yang Guang knew that the whole world was criticizing his family for being in an unfair position, and many people in the Guanzhong Group were convinced by him on the surface, but in fact they were not convinced, so he was eager to prove himself, and he also wanted to control those who were dissatisfied with him.
He had absolutely no murderous intentions towards Yang Xiu, and he looked down on his younger brother to his core.
It seems that only I regard the great deeds that my parents have accomplished through so much hard work as a treasure, while the other brothers do not take them seriously.
"Since I came to the throne, I have been very hands-on in everything, handling all matters big and small without daring to slack off. In just a few years, I have brought a prosperous atmosphere to the Sui Dynasty," Yang Guang said while drinking:
"If it's my eldest brother or you, can you do it?"
Yang Xiu snorted coldly and said nothing.
Yang Guang continued: "I was ordered by my father to sit in the south of the Yangtze River. I actively pacified the local area, actively interacted with aristocratic families, collected books and classics, respected Confucianism and Buddhism, and cultivated and lived with the people. What about you? What did you do in Yizhou? ? Kill, kill, still kill, the right my father gave you just allows you to kill?"
Yang Xiu was speechless, Bashu was difficult to control, so he adopted Yuan Yan's suggestion and used force to frighten the place. He did kill many people, but if he really wanted to say it was difficult to control, Jiangnan at that time was much more difficult to control than Bashu. .
Bashu is just disobedient to management, while Jiangnan is full of rebels.
The second child was really good at comforting Jiang Nan, and Yang Xiu was convinced by this.
In fact, if Yang Guang could still rule as he did in Yangzhou after succeeding to the throne, let alone the death of the second generation of the Sui Dynasty, it is likely to create an unprecedented prosperous era.
"Mute?" Yang Guang sneered and said: "Yiqian (Yang Liang's nickname) has been disobedient to me since he was a child, but after all it is a fight between brothers. I am the elder brother, so I always tolerate it, but he cannot ignore the hardships of his father, queen and mother. He ignored the hard work he had created and launched an army to rebel, causing harm to Hebei and Shandong, and endangering the foundation of our ancestors. Even so, I still did not kill him, whether you believe it or not."
Yang Xiu wanted to ask: Was it always you who killed the eldest brother?
But in the end, he still resisted asking, because the cause of Lao Wu's death was doubtful, but the boss was definitely killed by him. If he broke through this layer of window paper, he was afraid that he would not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
"Which of your sons can compare to my Qilin'er?" Yang Guang asked.
Yang Xiu was stunned, and after pondering for a moment: "I agree with Yang Ming. This child has been raised by his mother and father since he was a child, and he has become a great talent."
What he means is that your son has been trained intensively, so he is excellent. If my son also grew up in the palace, he would not necessarily be worse than your son.
Yang Guang saw that he was not convinced and said with a smile: "The nine sons of Longsheng are all different. We have the same father and mother, and we both grew up under the guidance of our father, the queen, and our queen. So why are you so different from me?"
Who is worse than you? I'm just not as sinister as you, and I'm not as ruthless as you. Yang Xiucha changed the subject and said:
"As for Yang Hao's matter, do you agree or disagree?"
"What do you think?" Yang Guang asked.
Pei Ju was completely speechless. He sat and watched the two brothers bickering. There was only one reason why he could stay here tonight. He was strict enough. Whatever he heard and saw, he would rot in his stomach and would not tell anyone.
Of course Yang Xiu hopes that this thing will come true. It is not certain whether he can survive Yang Guang to death, but his son can. As long as he survives until the day when Yang Ming takes over, his son may still have a way out, so Yang Hao must Let’s start with this.
"After all, he is a nephew, and the third brother is deceased. Considering the relationship between the flesh and blood, you should properly arrange Yang Hao, instead of leaving him in a bad place to manage the military government. The third brother has no grudge against you, right?"
He was reminding Yang Guang that I have no grudge against you, it is the boss and the fifth who have grudges against you.
Yang Xiu was convicted that year, partly for causing trouble in Yizhou and partly for cursing his mother with witchcraft. He did not offend Yang Guang.
But in fact, he was convicted because Yang Guang was behind it. Yang Su was an accomplice, but he has been kept in the dark so far.
Yang Guang heard the little thoughts in his brother's mouth and burst into laughter.
After a while, he nodded and said: "Okay, since he is Ah Zhi's only legitimate son, I allow him to inherit his father's legacy and take up the post of General Zuotunwei."
damn thing! It seems that if I don't die, my son will have no chance, right? Yang Xiu curled her lips and said:
"It should be so."
Next, the brothers started drinking. When the alcohol got the better of them, Yang Xiu became more and more natural and dared to say anything.
After Yang Xiu left, Yang Guang said to Pei Ju with unfinished thoughts:
"I rarely have such a happy time. Even my brother dares to contradict me, and I won't mind."
"Your Majesty still has a vast mind that can accommodate all things," Pei Ju said flatteringly.
Yang Guang laughed and said: "The marriage mentioned in the prince's memorial coincides with what Shiju wants. Have you two discussed it privately?"
"Absolutely not," Pei Ju hurriedly waved his hand: "Since the prince entered the East Palace, there has been no correspondence between the minister and the prince."
"What about your daughter? There won't be one, right?" Yang Guang said with a smile.
Pei Ju said: "It's true that there is no such thing. If something happens, it will be reported in person. There is no such thing as a letter."
I know you haven’t, but I’ve been staring at you. Yang Guang smiled and said:
"It's better to be cautious. Although Xuangan is a straight person, he also has a bad temper. My daughter-in-law is even more difficult to mess with. Sometimes things happen unintentionally, and I am most afraid of people with intentions, right?"
"Your Majesty is very reasonable," Pei Ju knew that Yang Guang was knocking him, but he didn't care because he was careful in everything and made absolutely no mistakes in his daily affairs.
After Yang Guang was silent for a while, he nodded and said:
"In this case, let the prince choose a princess from the clan to marry, but he still has to wait until the one named Cui Yi goes to Tiele. Hiss~~ You and the prince really coincide with each other this time? You all think that we should Make plans for that traitor Cui Zhen."
"It's purely accidental. Please be aware of it, Your Majesty," Pei Ju said with a wry smile.
Yang Guang laughed: "Don't think too much, I know it's a coincidence. Well, it's late at night, so you should go back and rest early."
Cui Yi and Yang Hao almost came to Beijing at the same time.
Yang Hao came so quickly because the imperial edict was sent directly from Luoyang to Hanoi County. Hanoi County is in the Jiaozuo City area and very close to Luoyang. After receiving the edict, Yang Hao was so excited that he quickly rode with his entourage. Xingye rushed to the capital to take up his post.
After he entered Beijing, he went directly to the East Palace. The first time he saw Yang Ming, he knelt down.
"Brother Ming, brother Ming, I never thought that today would happen in this life. Please accept my respect, brother." Yang Hao was really moved, with tears streaming down his face, and kowtowed to Yang Ming directly.
Yang Ming hurriedly stepped forward to caress him: "I didn't know that my brother came so quickly? I only found out about this just after I received His Majesty's order."
"If I hadn't been recommended by my brother Ming, I might never be able to get ahead. I can't repay this kindness," Yang Hao cried loudly and let Yang Ming help him up.
In fact, when he knew that Luoyang had an imperial edict for him, he was already devastated and thought that the emperor was going to kill him. He never thought that it turned out to be a great good thing. The huge contrast made him unable to react for a long time. come over.
Moreover, it is clearly stated in the imperial edict that His Majesty received this canonization at the invitation of the Crown Prince.
"Okay, okay, why do you and I have to do this?" Yang Ming said with a smile: "If I don't recommend my own brothers, how can I recommend others' brothers? There is no such reason."
Yang Hao wiped his tears with his sleeves and choked with sobs: "In short, if Brother Ming has an explanation from now on, I will have to go through fire and water."
"Brother, your words are serious. Who wants you to go through fire and water?" Yang Ming said with a smile: "My eldest aunt has also been thinking about you. While it is still early, can you and I go to see her together?"
"That's how it should be," Yang Hao was greatly moved.
So the two brothers held hands and went out of the palace to meet Yang Lihua.
Although Yang Hao's father died, his status as a member of the royal family remained unchanged. Even if he was not welcomed by the emperor, he still had several uncles who were in power, so he never suffered a loss when he was in Hanoi County.
The Cui Hongsheng brothers would be very happy to know that their nephew has returned to Beijing to take such an important position.
Speaking of which, Yang Hao is also a poor man without a father and a mother. His own mother killed his own father. How many people can be involved in this matter? He has such a fierce personality that he could actually poison his husband after being treated coldly?
There are many real wives who have been treated coldly, and it is rare in the world for those who dare to poison their husbands.
Yang Lihua may be getting older, and she used to be indifferent to the younger members of her family, but now that she has gotten older, she has always cared about them in her mouth and heart.
After seeing Yang Hao, Yang Lihua stepped forward to hold her nephew's hand affectionately and said softly:
"You should be relieved to know that there is knowledge under Ah Ji Quan."
Yang Hao's mouth trembled and he cried again.
