Chapter 663 Yang Guang’s plan

"Sending envoys to Daxia?"

Yang Guang said doubtfully.

In the past, he was neither an emperor nor a prince. He didn't even understand domestic government affairs, let alone know much about foreign affairs.

Daxia, Yang Guang knows.

I heard that there was a new emperor there, and he collaborated with the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty to destroy the Xiongnu and took over the treasure land of Hetao Plain.

It's a pity that the Huns were not close to the Sui Dynasty.

Yang Guang felt regretful.

If the Sui Dynasty had the Xiongnu by his side, he would not have to worry about establishing prestige.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty have long sent envoys to Daxia to congratulate you."

"Furthermore, I heard that the envoys of the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty are still staying in the Xia Dynasty to learn the methods of the Xia Dynasty to restore the country's prestige. I, the Sui Dynasty, can't be inferior to others."

"How can Daxia regain its national prestige?"

Yang Guang's eyes lit up, but he didn't hear what was said before and after.

My thoughts are completely focused on restoring national prestige.

Isn't this exactly what he needs!

"Then according to Uncle Yang's wishes, who would be more appropriate for me to send?"

Yang Guang asked.

Yang Suzhuang was deep in thought, then raised her head for a moment.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, Secretary Lang Yang Xuangan is qualified to take on this responsibility!"

When Yang Guang heard this, he sneered in his heart.

Who is Yang Xuangan? How could he not know that he is Yang Sugang's son who just entered officialdom a few years ago.

This mission trip may not be true, but the gold plating is certain.

However, when Yang Guang first ascended to the throne, he had no way to win over the civil and military ministers before. Yang Su was the only important minister he could rely on, and it was hard for him to disobey him now.

"Uncle Yang is right." Yang Guang agreed, and then asked: "Does Uncle Yang have anything else?"

"Your Majesty, I have nothing else to do, but there is one thing. Now is definitely not a good time to start a war with Goguryeo. No matter whether we can defeat Goguryeo or not, the Sui Dynasty will be seriously damaged. By then, both the Turks and Daxia may be

Take the opportunity to take action." Yang Su looked serious.

"Da Xia will also be dispatched?" Yang Guang asked in surprise.

The Turks might take action against the Sui Dynasty, which was within Yang Guang's expectation.

No matter how you say it, Goguryeo is still a nominal vassal state of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Turks will not just sit back and watch it be destroyed.

But Daxia is one of the Five Kingdoms of the Central Plains. How could it happen, and how dare it take action against the Sui Dynasty!

Faced with Yang Guang's questions, Yang Su smiled secretly and took the initiative to answer questions.

"Your Majesty, Daxia will not take action against us."

"But if we start a full-scale war with Goguryeo and contain Goguryeo's large number of troops, do you think Daxia will let this opportunity pass?"

Yang Guang understood at first glance and nodded in admiration.

"Uncle Yang is worthy of being an important minister of the imperial court, and his vision is more far-sighted than mine."

This flattery, if it were to be said by the former Second Highness, Yang Su would not take it seriously, but if it were replaced by the current emperor of the Sui Dynasty, it would be very useful to Yang Su.

He Shi Shiran stood up and said to Yang Guang: "Your Majesty, please remember that even the five countries of the Central Plains can only live in peace and harmony under external pressure. If there is civil strife in the Yuan Dynasty and the Turks disappear, the world will inevitably be in chaos!"

"My nephew remembers it."

After sending Yang Su away, Yang Guang returned to the imperial study and kicked the chair away first.

"Damn old guy, how dare you pretend to be in front of me!"

Eunuch Li was startled and stepped forward to express concern.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Yang Su is old and fatuous. After a few years, your Majesty will be able to get rid of him easily."

"Um."

After taking a few breaths, Yang Guang calmed down.

He sneered and said: "It's not true that the old man is fatuous. Yang Su at least said two things that are right."

"Huh? Please ask Your Majesty to clarify my doubts."

"First, if there were no Yuan Dynasty and Turks, the Five Kingdoms of the Central Plains would be in chaos!"

"Secondly, now is not a good time to attack Goguryeo, but..."

"But?" Eunuch Li asked.

"If we can sign an alliance with Daxia and join forces to divide Goguryeo equally..."

Eunuch Li's eyes lit up, he knelt on his knees and said sincerely, "Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is wise!"

His compliment made Yang Guang's anger disappear.

He sat behind the desk, tilted his head back, closed his eyes, and said, "How much do you know about Yang Xuangan, the son of Yang Su?"

Eunuch Li had long remembered the wealth of the ministers in the DPRK and immediately replied.

"I'm telling you, Your Majesty, Yang Xuangan is the Secretary of the Secretariat Province. He is a shrewd and capable person. I heard that he climbed to this position easily without relying on Yang Su's influence. His colleagues in the Secretary Province all admire his ability."

"Haha, it seems that Yang Su's decision to let his son go to Daxia is not all gold-plated..."

Yang Guang muttered something, and then asked: "Does this person have any close friends, the kind who can do things for me?"

Eunuch Li thought in his mind and immediately replied.

"Yes, Secretary and Provincial Secretary Li Mi, this person is nearly ten years older than Yang Xuangan, but he is a rare close friend of Yang Xuangan. He is hypocritical and cynical by nature. If Your Majesty promises a future, I think he can be used by Your Majesty."

Yang Guang's eyes brightened slightly and he sat upright.

"Go and bring this Li Mi yourself!"

"etc."

Yang Guang suddenly shouted.

Eunuch Li turned around and bowed to wait.

"How is that Qiu Yuanzheng doing?" Yang Guang asked with a smile.

Even if Yang Guang has taken control of the government, he is unwilling to face such criticism for killing his father and brother, not to mention that his foundation is unstable now. If this is spread, I am afraid that those civil and military ministers will risk putting a puppet in power.

Join forces to drive him down.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Qiu Yuanzheng has stayed behind closed doors since he returned. He has never been to the Taiyuan Hospital again."

"Very good." Yang Guang said coldly with an evil smile on his lips.

"It should be normal for Qiu Yuan to commit suicide out of fear of his crime after he accidentally executed the emperor. After his death, his family will not be able to stay in the capital and will definitely leave the capital and return to their hometown."

"It is normal for a family of old, weak, women and children to take a large amount of money on the road and be robbed and killed by bandits, and the whole family is wiped out."

Yang Guang's words made Eunuch Li shiver.

"Do you understand?" Yang Guang asked in a serious tone.

"I understand, little one." Eunuch Li quickly replied.

"Bring Li Mi here before we do it, and deal with it more cleanly."

"I understand, little one. Let's go right now."

Soon, Li Mi, the school secretary, came to the palace anxiously, not knowing what he had been promised, and left in a hurry with joy.

In the afternoon of the same day, Yang Guang changed the name of the country to Daye, and issued his first decree after ascending the throne. With Yang Xuangan as the chief envoy and Li Mi as the deputy envoy, he took the Sui Dynasty gift and went to Daxia to congratulate the Xia Emperor Li Ye on his death.

Foreigners, stabilize rivers and mountains.

On the same day, something big or small happened in the capital.

Qiu Ji, the hospital chief of Taiyuan Hospital, failed to diagnose and treat the late emperor Yang Jian, so he stayed in seclusion for several days and finally committed suicide in shame.
