Hearing this, Yang Su pondered for a while, sighed, and said: "Maybe this fake death is an opportunity for me to escape, and if I die, the Yang family will be able to survive. In order to show it to the world, the emperor, in a short period of time,
The Yang family will not treat me poorly, so just tell the capital that I was assassinated!"
…
…
Gao Ying was burned to death, Yang Hao surrendered, and news of Yang Su's assassination reached the capital one after another. Yang Guang was shocked and suddenly elated. He was still worried about how to reward Yang Su for his great achievements, and then reduce the power in Yang Su's hands.
, he didn’t expect that Yang Su would be assassinated in a confused manner after the Bingzhou Rebellion was settled. This was definitely an unexpected surprise for him.
For this reason, Yang Guang drank a few glasses of wine, and he decided not to deal with government affairs tonight, but to read in the Ziwei Hall of the Inner Palace and relax for a while.
Ziwei Hall is where Yang Guang handles government affairs in the inner palace, which is also his inner study. He sometimes receives ministers here. He wears a light yellow wide-body Zen robe, a black gauze square hat on his head, and an iron ornament around his waist.
He was sitting on the couch and concentrating on reading. On the imperial desk in front of him, there were a historical record and a Chinese book.
Yang Guang likes to read history. He has read history books since he was a child, which makes him well aware of the rise and fall of dynasties. The people he admires most in his life are the first emperor of Qin and Emperor Wu of Han. He admires the first emperor of Qin for his ability to unify the six countries and build the Great Wall with the power of the whole country.
He Qinzhidao said that this kind of craftsmanship and courage fascinated him.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty expanded the territory, attacked the Xiongnu Dayuan and Weijiahai, and left his illustrious martial arts in the long history. Yang Guang also yearned for it. As early as when he was the prince, he was thinking about his future.
He also wants to leave a brilliant mark in history through his civil and martial arts skills.
At this time, Queen Xiao walked into his study with a bowl of ginseng tea: "Your Majesty, it's rare to relax tonight, so go to bed early!"
Empress Xiao put the ginseng tea on the table and said with a smile: "Guo Liangdi is eight months pregnant. Your Majesty should go and see her. I hope she will give birth to your royal son."
Yang Guang held his wife's fair hand and smiled: "I hope you can give me more dragons."
Empress Xiao Huang blushed, leaned against Yang Guang, and said quietly: "I do think so, but I am already a grandmother, how can I have another chance to regenerate? Why don't I give your Majesty some more young concubines?"
Let Your Majesty have more heirs."
Yang Guang sighed slightly and said: "As the emperor, I need to be praised by future generations like Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. I don't want to be too indulged in women, let alone be said to be dissolute and shameless by future generations. My father and emperor will only respect their mother and queen throughout their lives."
I created the Sui Dynasty, I already have two sons and one daughter, Guo Liangdi is eight months pregnant, and many grandchildren, that is enough, there is no need to have more concubines."
Xiao was moved in his heart and felt an indescribable happiness. He had been married to Yang Guang for more than 20 years, and their relationship had always been profound. She gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and Yang Yong's confidant was still with his father.
When the emperor said that his husband was a prostitute, his father refuted him with one sentence, "If my son is a prostitute, why do he only have two sons and one daughter, and they are all born to his legitimate wife?" The informer was speechless.
But Empress Xiao was still a little worried. After all, her husband was the emperor. If the emperor had few heirs, it would destabilize the country, and she would not be able to escape the blame.
"Your Majesty is the king of a country. How can he only have two sons and one daughter? King Fangling has ten sons and four daughters. Your Majesty has only a few heirs. I am a concubine!"
King Fangling was the former crown prince Yang Yong. When he mentioned him, Yang Guang felt a little uncomfortable, so he said lightly: "Prince Fangling was too womanly and indulged in lust. As a prince, he was debauched and unrestrained.
Such people cannot support the Sui Dynasty."
Empress Xiao doesn't care much about Yang Yong. It has nothing to do with her. She cares more about her two sons. She came to see her husband today and persuaded him to accept the concubine. At the same time, she also wanted to talk to her husband about the matter of Prince Lidong Palace.
.
One of the two sons was to be established as the prince. From her original intention, the eldest son Yang Zhao should be the heir. However, Yang Zhao was too fat and sickly and was not expected to live a long life. The second son Yang Jian was brave, handsome and handsome.
Much like her father, it might be a good choice to make him his legitimate son. Both of them are her sons. No matter who is made the East Palace, she will support it. More importantly, she has seen her husband working day and night on state affairs, Zhao
Can he bear that kind of body?
"Your Majesty, how do you consider who to appoint as the Crown Prince of the East Palace?"
Yang Guang knew what Empress Xiao meant. In fact, he had been undecided about this matter. As an emperor, the eldest son did not have the appearance of a dragon and a warrior, and his appearance was not good. His body could not cope with the heavy state affairs. This was also something Yang Guang was worried about. Although
Yang Guang himself also wanted to make his second son Yang Jian the crown prince, but that didn't mean that he didn't value his eldest son. He valued his eldest son very much. If the eldest son looked better and was in better health, he would never consider the second son, and the eldest son.
His character was better than that of his second son. Although Yang Jian was handsome and mighty, how could Yang Guang not know about his poor conduct?
Yang Guang sighed, "Let's take a look at Lidong Palace beforehand! I want to see it again."
…
…
Wang Junlin did not tell Wang Long, Yu Wenhua and the truth that Yang Su was not dead, but left Taiyuan City immediately before Yang Su's army sealed the city.
With him leaving Taiyuan for the capital, in addition to Shen Guang, Shan Xiongxin, Chunqiu Laonu and other people who originally followed him to Bingzhou, there were also Luo Guishou's family of three, Xiao Feng'er, Zheng Shengqiu and other Nanhua Association masters in Bingzhou, Gao
When Ying originally killed Xiao Maha, he destroyed most of the Nanhua Association's forces in Bingzhou. There were not many people left, but they were all masters. The worst ones were in the foundation building stage. They were all gathered together by Xiao Feng'er and Zheng Shengqiu these days.
When they get together, they will go to the Nanhua Society's saint Chen Danying in the capital.
In addition, Wang Junlin sent someone to send a message to Luo Yi, asking him to continue hiding in the valley and wait for the army brought by Yang Su to retreat before returning to Hedong County to prevent being surrounded and killed by Yang Su's generals. By then Wang Junlin
He will ask Luo Yi for merit and recommend Luo Yi to Yang Guang as the Bingzhou Zhonglang General.
…
…
"Finally back to Daxing City!"
Wang Junlin hurriedly looked around, and saw on the distant plain ahead, the outline of a city wall looming in the afterglow of the setting sun, like a long black dragon swimming in the twilight.
Wang Junlin knew that Daxing City was the original Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty in history, but it was not the original Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty (note).
Note: After Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, established the Sui Dynasty, he initially set the capital in Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty. However, Chang'an at that time was dilapidated and small, and the water pollution was serious, so he decided to build another new city on the south slope of Longshouyuan in the southeast. Emperor Gaozu of the Sui Dynasty opened the city
Starting from the second year (582), under the auspices of Yu Wenkai, the palace city and the imperial city were built in only about 9 months. Yu Wenkai, the chief architect of Daxing in the Sui Dynasty, carefully designed the Daxing City.
The construction of Daxing Palace in the second year (AD 582) kicked off the construction of Daxing City. In the ninth year of the Daye of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty (AD 613), part of the city walls of the outer city began to be built. In the third year of Kaihuang (583 AD), the Sui Dynasty moved to
As for Xindu, because Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty had been granted the title of Duke of Daxing[1] in his early years, the city was named "Daxing". After Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty succeeded to the throne, he successively excavated the North-South Grand Canal to connect Daxing City with waterways. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty
In the ninth year of Daye (613), more than 100,000 people were used to build the Waiguo City outside the palace city and the imperial city. The overall layout of the city was basically formed. The Tang Dynasty continued to establish its capital here and changed its name to Chang'an.
