Seeing the enemy leaving in a hurry, the two lion guards shivering at the door of the Song Mansion looked at each other, then fell into shock and confusion.
As we all know, it is common for the Song family not to be present in the Song Dynasty.
They have been working as guards here for five years. For five years, they have never seen what Miss Song looks like.
They came here on time every day to stand guard, take turns, get laid off, and get their salary. The first time they stopped him when he came in, he was beaten. Later, when they learned about the situation, they didn't stop him when he came in, and he was beaten again.
After that, there was one more thing in their daily life: being beaten! Regardless of whether they stopped them or not, they would be beaten.
Five years, no one knows how they got through these five years, but as young heroes, as long as their martial arts improve, it doesn't matter.
As a result, they are now told that the legitimate daughter of the Song family, a girl who is less than fifteen years old, is already a great master?
Is this possible? Is this reasonable? Is this fair?
Calculated this way, they were quite old, but they were already shivering with cold before they even took action, as if they had practiced the exercises until they were in a dog's belly.
No, pig belly, the Song family is forbidden to talk about dogs.
House, bedroom.
The little yellow cat lay quietly on the bed, with its front paws in its arms, motionless.
Song Yuzhi looked at Le Ye suspiciously, feeling that something was wrong.
Grandmaster? Didn't Le Ye say that she is so picky in martial arts that she can't even beat him with one of his claws? Can such a strength be considered a grandmaster?
Then her father's Invincible Heavenly Sword couldn't defeat Le Ye, right? How could this be possible?
"Master Le, tell me honestly, have you been lying to me?" Song Yuzhi squatted in front of the little yellow cat, with a serious face.
The little yellow cat turned its head to the side.
Too much smell!
Song Yuzhi tilted his legs and came to the little yellow cat again: "Why, Mr. Le, why don't you dare to face me? Are everything I said true?"
"Ugh!" The little yellow cat stuck out its tongue and almost shed tears from its eyes.
Too close, it hurts the eyes.
Song Yuzhi lowered his head, clamped his legs, and blushed on his face. He stretched out his hands to bring the little yellow cat to his eyes, and his eyes seemed to be brewing with knife intent.
There was a delicate little face in front of her. The little yellow cat did not hesitate, directly, sucked and washed her face.
The girl was silent.
"Eh" "~Le Ye, you are too disgusting!"
Miao Le was furious. Didn't you feel disgusted when you licked me before?
Look at my magic!
"Suck, suck, suck..." "Ah!"
After a while, one person and one cat lay panting on the bed. It was obvious that the battle was very fierce.
"Hey, Mr. Le, you didn't squirt on me just now. Now tell me honestly, are you lying to me?" The girl still has not forgotten this essential issue.
The little yellow cat pondered for a moment, with a sincere expression.
"Meow!"
[With all due respect to this meow, among the people I have met in my life, your current strength is not ranked among the top ten, so you are really weak. Think about it for yourself, every time you fight with me, you will lose.
If you can't even defeat my little kitten, how can you be considered a strong person?】
"Really? Then why did that person just say that I was a great master?" Song Yuzhi didn't believe it.
"Meow meow~"
[What do you know? What is a great master? Founding a sect, mastering martial arts, and being invincible in the world is what you call a great master! You are only a little better than that Yu Wenhuaji.
And that Yu Wenhuaji is only slightly stronger in Daxing City. He is a frog in the well. He knows what a great master is.
This is flattering! Think about it, if the younger generation knows that you have proclaimed yourself a grand master at a young age, they will definitely laugh at you!]
The little yellow cat advised earnestly.
Song Yuzhi froze on the spot, thinking carefully.
This seems to make some sense. Besides, with her father's level of strength, he is not even a great master in the world, so what does she mean?
Hey, she was almost deceived, but luckily she asked Le Ye tactfully!
As expected of me!
…
Royal Palace.
"Ahem, cough, cough~" Yu Wenhuaji vomited blood, and the smart sword energy in his meridians rushed wildly. If it weren't for the mysterious Xuan Bing Jin, he would have died by now.
"General Yuwen, are you sure that Song Yuzhi really has the strength of a Grandmaster?"
Yang Guang came back in a hurry and finished handling an important civil memorial: drafting women in the private sector. Now he expressed serious doubts about Yu Wenhuaji.
What is the situation of the Song family, with three great masters in one sect? Doesn't this mean that you can rebel if you want to? Not to mention how talented is Song Yuzhi? Can he break the void and become an immortal in the future?
Nonsense!
Yu Wenhua vomited another mouthful of blood before his expression softened.
"Your Majesty, although I have never officially fought against the Grand Master, the feeling Song Que gave me on that day when I tried my sword on the world twenty years ago is the same as it is today.
The sword cuts across the air, and no one can stop it.
As for whether Song Yuzhi is the real grand master..."
Speaking of this, Yu Wenhuaji was a little hesitant. After all, what this girl has done in recent years is really not very similar.
"Your Majesty, I can guarantee that although this Song Yuzhi may have some mental problems, his strength is definitely not inferior to those three recognized great masters."
Yang Guang was startled. Isn't this great master with a wrong mental state more frightening?
"Forget it, be more disciplined in your business with the Song family from now on. Since they like to be businessmen, I'll be satisfied!" Yang Guang waved his hand and said indifferently.
Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up.
After experiencing this incident, his growing ambition was directly poured a splash of cold water on him.
As a human being, you should not be too crazy, otherwise you will be kicked out sooner or later. So what if he is the emperor? What if he is even a grand master?
Who will remember them after thousands of years? No one can beat eternal time!
But if he is like Qin Shihuang, who unified the world, established great achievements, and became an emperor through the ages, it will be different. Even if it is thousands of years, future generations will remember that there once was a great emperor: Yang Guang!
"Here, call General Yang!"
"yes!"
Since it is too difficult to deal with the noble families, then do the other two things that the emperor ordered before his death: select talents through the imperial examination and dig the Grand Canal!
As long as these two are completed, who in future generations will not remember Yang Guang?
As for the money, food, and population needed to do these things, he doesn't worry at all.
The current food, population, and money of the Sui Dynasty can be said to be the pinnacle of all dynasties. They are rare in ancient and modern times. With such accumulation, what can he do if he wants to?
Money is such a thing that you can't spend it all, you can't spend it all.
…
In the first year of Daye, Yang Guang mobilized people from counties in Henan and Huaibei, and more than one million people built the Tongji Canal. The western section diverted valley water from Xiyuan in Luoyang. The Luo River followed the old route of Yang Canal, and the eastern section took the old route of Bian Canal and entered the Huai River.
After that, more than 100,000 migrant workers from Huainan were recruited to build the Hangou Straight Road opened by Chen Deng of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It ran from Shanyang to Yangzi and entered the Yangtze River. The channel was 40 paces wide, with neat and flat imperial roads built on both sides and willows planted in between.
Finally, orders were given to dredge the Tunshi River in the Han Dynasty, the Gudu River and the white ditch opened by Cao Cao to become the Yongji Canal, dredge the Wu Canal in the Spring and Autumn Period, the Dantu Waterway in the Qin Dynasty, and the canal in the Southern Dynasty to be the Jiangnan River, which was later collectively named the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty.
The Grand Canal is centered on Luoyang, extending from Kuaiji in the south to Zhuojun (today's Shangjing) in the north, with a total length of more than 5,400 miles. It runs through the most fertile southeast coast of the Sui Dynasty and the great plains in the north, reaching the Yellow River, Huaihe River,
The five major river systems are the Yangtze River, Qiantang River and Haihe River.
Merchant ships travel back and forth, and there are endless boat rides.
Although this is the main artery of the Central Plains and the longest canal in history, it was dredged on the basis of the river channels built in the past dynasties. It cost a lot of money and made the people miserable.
But for such a great achievement, hundreds of officials still paid homage to him, and memorials were presented one after another with touted praise.
One emperor for eternity, sage king for eternity, king and father of the world, Khan of heaven!
Yang Guang read it carefully and suddenly felt that he was good again.
As an emperor for eternity, how could he live in the same palace as other emperors?
Yang Guang began to build the Xianren Palace, transporting exotic materials and stones from the south of the Dajiang River and the north of Wuling to Luoyang. He also used exotic trees, grasses, rare birds and animals from the sea to enrich the garden.
Wang Hong and others went to the south of the Yangtze River to build tens of thousands of dragon boats and miscellaneous boats. The officials in Luoyang supervised the labor force harshly and urgently. Four to five tenths of the laborers disappeared mysteriously, their whereabouts were unknown, and their household registrations were cancelled.
Xiyuan has a radius of two hundred miles, and there is the sea in the garden, with a circumference of more than ten miles. Within the sea are built Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou sacred mountains. The mountains are more than a hundred feet above the water. There are terraces and palaces dotted on the mountains.
It looks like a fairyland from every aspect.
To the north of the garden is the Longlin Canal, which meanders into the sea. Sixteen courtyards were built along the Longlin Canal. The gates of the courtyards are adjacent to the canal. Each courtyard is presided over by a fourth-grade lady. The palaces and buildings in the courtyard are extremely gorgeous.
After the branches and leaves of the trees in the palace have fallen off in autumn and winter, ribbons are cut out and decorated with flowers and leaves on the branches. When the colors are old, they are replaced with new ones, so that the scenery always looks like spring.
In the pond, ribbons were also cut out of silk to make lotuses, water chestnuts, water chestnuts, and water chestnuts.
When Yang Guang came to play, he removed the ice from the pond and decorated it with colored silk to create a beautiful spring scenery. The sixteen courtyards competed with each other with delicacies and exquisite food in order to win the emperor's favor.
When it comes to fun, enjoyment, and spectacle, it is obvious that he is a professional. The only thing that makes him depressed is that besides him, there is another Supreme Emperor in the palace: Le Ye!
Not only was the little yellow cat enjoying his success, he was openly competing with him at various banquets. At first, he wanted Yu Wenhuaji to teach him a lesson. After Yu Wenhuaji tried to take a breath, he lay down on the ground at his feet and started
Advise him to value peace.
Yang Guang thought for a while and felt that he couldn't use up all the beauties, food, and wine by himself. They were already a bit wasted. Le Ye came at the right time, not only to prevent food waste, but also to have a good companion to accompany him.
Best of both worlds!
Royal study room.
Yang Guang looked at the memorial in his hand and was very satisfied.
In addition to enjoying himself, he is not bad at government affairs, and can even be said to be very good. For example, he leaves all major and minor matters to his subordinates, and he is only responsible for one thing: stamping.
Among these ministers, the one who particularly struck him as special was Pei Ju.
In these years, he was responsible for all affairs in the Western Regions. He did not lead a single soldier, but only adopted the policy of divide and rule. In just a few years, he initially established the Sui Dynasty's hegemony in the Western Regions.
In the fourth year of Daye, when he went to worship Heng Yue, more than ten countries in the Western Regions "Xian came to assist in the sacrifice." Later, the Sui Dynasty built a city in Yinwu and divided its troops to garrison it. This move endangered the safety of all countries. Due to Pei Ju's existence, all ethnic groups in the Western Regions not only did not
No objection, but deep agreement.
Later, Pei Ju wrote the "Illustrated Records of the Western Regions" with rich pictures and texts, covering the mountains, rivers, geography, customs and customs of the forty-four countries in the Western Regions, and was even called a strange book by the ministers.
You must know that when my father was there, the Turks invaded south with all their strength and directly broke through the Great Wall defense line. The Sui army tried its best to resist, but was still killed and retreated.
【In view of the general environment,
At that time, the Turks were spread across thousands of miles and were invincible until the Sui general "Da Xi Changru" led two thousand Sui troops and one hundred thousand Turk troops to fight to the death in Zhou Jie.
It was a battle. The Sui soldiers fought day and night. After three days of bloody fighting, all the weapons in the hands of the soldiers were exhausted. The Sui soldiers still refused to give up with their bare hands. They beat them with fists without weapons. The soldiers' hands were all broken. There were more than 10,000 Turkic casualties.
.
At this time, the two thousand soldiers of the Sui army who fought to the end were almost dead or injured. Da Xi Changru himself suffered five wounds, two wounds and even punctures, and was seriously injured.
It can be said that at that time, the Sui soldiers used their lives and blood to scare away the Turks. But he, the new emperor of the Sui Dynasty, regained the Western Regions without spending a single soldier, and was even called "Tian Ke"
sweat".
This Pei Ju is really powerful. You must know that there is also a great master in Turks: Wu Zun Bixuan. Isn't he afraid of being beaten to death by that great master?
"Pei Ju, a humble minister, pays homage to Your Majesty!" A man with white hair and red robes came into the hall, with a handsome and elegant face.
Yang Guang nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Qing family. You are as powerful as an army of 100,000 people. You played an indispensable role in our Sui Dynasty. What reward do you want?"
Although it was easy to conquer the Turks with the current national power of the Sui Dynasty, once the army moved, it would be a disaster for the people, not to mention that it was impossible to cultivate fields in the Turkic lands, and occupying them would only waste national power for no reason.
Therefore, the past dynasties have had a headache for such grassland peoples. Fighting them would waste people's financial resources. If you don't fight them, people will be disgusted with you and come to rob you if you don't have anything to eat.
"You have to die to serve your country." Pei Ju said respectfully.
Yang Guang nodded, very satisfied.
When the emperor is at his best, and his ministers do good deeds, he will have a share of the credit. If something goes wrong with his ministers, he will be pushed out to take the blame.
For example, for the Great Wall and the Canal, he did nothing but allocate money and send people. But will his descendants and emperors tell others that this canal was built by others?
No, they will proudly say that their ancestor, Sui Emperor Gaozu, was a holy king through the ages. He dug canals, built the Great Wall, and attacked the Turks in the north. He was the Holy Emperor and the Khan of Heaven!
Of course, the posthumous title of Emperor Gaozu of the Sui Dynasty was decided by himself. With his current unparalleled achievements, can't he still be called a great ancestor? Mingzu or Chengzu will do.
"Master Pei, I read your memorial. You said you want me to expedition to Goryeo during the Sui Dynasty? Give me a good reason!" Yang Guang said solemnly.
"Your Majesty, firstly, Goryeo was originally the territory of our Han family and has been an inseparable part of our Sui Dynasty since ancient times; secondly, Goryeo is not a subject!" Pei Ju said firmly.
Yang Guang fell into deep thought.
Today, the Sui Dynasty has surrendered to the Eastern and Western Turks, opened up the Western Regions, conquered the Southwest, and is the center of all nations.
However, looking around, only Goryeo still refused to surrender, and even infiltrated the Turks to prevent those small eastern countries from coming to court.
