After all, throughout the history of China, this is an unavoidable name.
The founding king of the Great Sui Dynasty laid the foundation of the glorious Tang Dynasty.
"The implication of these words is that Yang Jian should have already made a fortune by now," Chen Cuo thought silently. "This means that the Sui Dynasty is coming soon. I am afraid that my status as a member of the Nanchen clan will not last long.
."
He asked himself that although he went through a lot of troubles in Nanchen, he immediately entered the Immortal Sect and had almost no impact on the two countries in the north, especially the country of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. So the progress of the Northern Zhou Dynasty should have evolved according to the original historical process.
.
"From this perspective, getting more information from Pei Shiju will actually help me infer the situation in the Central Plains."
Although the time was short, Chen Cuo could already see that Pei Shiju looked like he was studying at home, but in fact he had a wide range of friends, was well-informed, and had some contacts with almost all parties. He was a real person who sat at home and knew the world's affairs!
At this moment, he and his friends discussed the situation in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
"Yu Wenhu of the Zhou Kingdom can be regarded as a figure, but it is a pity that he is a powerful minister after all. His reputation is not justified and his words are not smooth, especially since he just used an excuse to kill Dugu Xin at the beginning of the year." Pei Shiju looked like he was well informed, "He wants to kill Dugu Xin.
, there have been signs for a long time. After all, Dugu Xin had the intention to protect the emperor, secretly colluded with the ministers, and had long been a thorn in Yu Wenhu's side. He even deliberately connived and prepared to catch them all. I originally thought he would take action next year, but it was Nanchen Hou'an.
The incident of Du Fu's execution woke him up and made Yu Wenhu feel a sense of urgency, so he closed the net in advance."
Hearing this, Chen Cuo couldn't help but be stunned, and then his heart moved.
"Yes, a single move can affect the whole body. This butterfly effect is always unavoidable. After one's own actions, the world's situation will undoubtedly change slightly. After the ripples spread, even if the times cannot be leveraged, there will definitely be subtle differences. So
The original historical process cannot actually be regarded as a guideline or a formula."
He really didn't expect that the idea he had just had would be broken by him in the blink of an eye.
"But they all originate from Pei Shiju, which is enough to show that paying attention to this person is actually beneficial!"
Sure enough, Pei Shiju had a few words with his friends and said: "Dugu Xin originally intended to marry his daughter to Yang Jian. Although his daughter practiced with a Taoist priest named Han, she was still from a wealthy family and could not have her own choice in marriage. As a result, Dugu Xin
There was no one to preside over this death, and the girl from the Dugu family had no suppression, so there were twists and turns, and the marriage between the two families came to nothing..."
What follows is another analysis of the major families and the Eight Pillar States of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, which Chen Cuo found very rewarding.
Finally, Pei Shiju said: "After all, the Zhou Kingdom was also born in Xianbei. Although the founding Yuwentai was knowledgeable and capable, his national accumulation was so weak that it only lasted more than ten years after the founding of the country. It should have been as powerful as a tiger
At that time, the signs of the end of the dynasty were already showing. It was nothing more than that the rulers of the Zhou Dynasty did not learn from the envoys. If they could concentrate on studying the Han Dynasty and learn from the Wei and Jin Dynasties, they could avoid these disasters."
I don’t know about the Han Dynasty, regardless of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
With a thought in his heart, Chen Cuo's will gathered more and more, because he felt the fourth kind of humane consensus from Pei Shiju's words!
"To completely refine the gourd, you need five levels of prohibitions, five elements and five levels, coupled with five humane consensuses related to 'I don't know the Han, regardless of the Wei and Jin'. Now I have three ways, but two are missing. Now they are all
I have a clue..."
Soon, Pei Shiju's friends said goodbye and left, and the young master from an aristocratic family returned to his quiet studies.
Autumn passes and winter comes, and a year turns into a blink of an eye.
In the spring of the next year, the man surnamed Zhang who was the mastermind came again.
"It's just as you expected," the scribe of the Zhang family sighed repeatedly as soon as he sat down. "The leader of the Chen Kingdom was changed to Yuan Guangda, but he did not take power. On the contrary, King Ancheng Chen Xu really held the power, so much so that several of the spies we arranged were...
They were picked out one by one."
Pei Shiju smiled and said: "It's just a temporary difficulty. As time goes by, Chen Guo will be in the same situation as Zhou Guo."
The scribe of the Zhang family sighed and said: "But the situation of our Daqi..." At this point, he sighed again and again and couldn't go on. Finally he just said: "Hu Lujin's body and bones look like they are not going to work anymore, I guess.
He won't be able to survive this year, and if he leaves, no one will be able to defeat him."
Pei Shiju's smile remained unchanged but he didn't say much.
When the scholar of the Zhang family saw this, he shook his head and said, "I know what you are thinking, but no matter what, you must first make a name for yourself. If your name is not known, no one will take it seriously."
"Of course I understand this." Pei Shiju nodded, "But no matter how the current situation changes, the matter of raising hopes cannot be stopped."
The scribes of the Zhang family bowed their hands, said goodbye with a wry smile, and left.
In the middle of that year, as if to confirm Pei Shiju's remarks, news came from the south that a man named Hua Jiao had raised a rebel flag in Changsha.
According to Pei Shiju's understanding, Hua Jiao was originally a subordinate of Hou Jing. He was treated well by Emperor Chen Wen and guarded Xiangzhou. Now that he is reporting, it is very likely that he got the opportunity because Emperor Wen's son was oppressed by King An Cheng.
Afterwards, the war developed and became more intense. Even the Northern Zhou Dynasty seized the opportunity and took the initiative to send troops to rescue Huajiao. They took advantage of the situation and captured Jingzhou and Xiangzhou. However, they were defeated and had to retreat to Sichuan, Changsha, and Baling.
Nanchen was recovered.
However, after this battle, the prestige of Ancheng King Chen Xu grew day by day.
"As Young Master Chen grows up, conflicts between the two will be inevitable."
Listening to Pei Shiju's conclusion, Chen Cuo felt something in his heart. He was originally from the Nanchen clan, and he had been helped by the Taizu of the Chen Kingdom and gained part of the dragon spirit of the dynasty. The turmoil in this country would naturally involve himself.
However, his induction was different from Pei Shiju's. The purple energy of the Dynasty in his body was gradually dormant, as if something was brewing.
He already understood a little bit.
In July of the following year, Pei Shiju received news that Sui Duke Yang Zhong of the Zhou Kingdom had died, and his son Yang Jian, also known as Pu Liuru Jian, had attacked the prince.
However, only Pei Shiju and Chen Cuo, who were observing him silently, cared a little about this matter. In the eyes of others, this was just a normal power transition in the Zhou Kingdom.
What's more, as news continued to come from the south, everyone's attention, including Pei Shiju, slowly focused on Nan Chen——
"In the Chen Kingdom, the young master is becoming more and more powerful, and the day when he will fight with King An Cheng is not far away. The civil strife in the Southern Dynasty is approaching!"
On this day, Pei Shiju and two visiting friends discussed the general trend of the world and made a conclusion.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice laughing and said: "This is inappropriate. The strife in the royal family is certainly the source of chaos, but as long as there is a determined person who can cut through the mess quickly, the chaos in the palace can also be stopped.
Without causing chaos in the country.”
"Who is it?" Pei Shiju's heart moved and he looked around.
What came into view was a young man in green clothes.
