Chapter 13: The Man of the Future

In the early winter of the fourth year of the Great Cause, Yang Weiyang, the prince of Western Shu, had the first confrontation with the prime minister of the current dynasty in the Great Sui Dynasty.

This confrontation laid the foundation for the future battle between Xishu and Xichu, but if time comes again, Yang Weiyang still does not regret it, he is useless and a scholar, this sentence is more than that.

Yang Weiyang glanced at the courtiers and said with a smile: "Your lords should know that for the construction of the North-South Grand Canal, although it is a great achievement for the benefit of the people and the society. However, now that Western Chu is watching from the Qutang Gorge, and if the Turks seize the opportunity to Chen Bing Yanmen Pass, then dare to ask your Excellency, will the Southern Tang Dynasty and Northern Mongolia wait and see? What we need to do well at this time is to prepare for a long-term war, and if the treasury is allocated a large amount of money, then once the war begins, where will the soldiers' food and salaries come from?

He is not talented, but he also knows that the three armies have not moved the grain and grass first. At the beginning of the war, if the treasury was empty, then how could the Great Sui Dynasty resist the tiger and wolf armies of the other four countries.

Since the establishment of the Great Sui Dynasty, wars have ceased from outside. Although it was a prosperous era during the Kaihuang period, Emperor Wen also personally went on three expeditions before he repelled the strong enemy. In the first year of the Great Cause, His Majesty also drove the expedition himself, so the war never stopped.

If the Grand Canal is built now, we all know how huge the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is, and the national treasury will definitely not spend such a large amount of money to build it. Then the only way to do this is to raise donations from the people, and it seems that the taxes paid in various parts of the Great Sui Dynasty have increased by three percent! This is forcing the people not to farm, but to go up to the mountains to do their jobs!

I believe that Commander Hu sent by the Holy Lord to pick me up was deeply touched, or Yuwen Chengdu, the son of Lord Yuwen, was even more touched. After all, the battle of Great Wei lost 100,000 to my good Great Sui Erlang, that's 100,000!"

Yu Wenhua's face immediately became gloomy, this was the first time in the four years of the Great Cause that the Great Sui Dynasty had lost a battle. Yu Wenhua knew that although Yang Guang only removed his son from all official positions, it did not mean that this matter would be settled like this.

That's 100,000 Great Sui Erlang, even if they are all miscellaneous troops, but they have Sui engraved on their foreheads, then they are the people of the Great Sui Dynasty. And His Majesty the Emperor's simple disposition of Yuwen Chengdu already aroused the dissatisfaction of the world, and even made the group of anti-thieves of Great Wei take advantage of this matter to make a big fuss, so that Yang Guang fell into a place of injustice.

And Yu Wenhua was also trying to seek an opportunity for his son to atone for his sins, but Yang Weiyang mentioned it in front of the Manchu Dynasty, so he cut off Yuwen Chengdu's future opportunities.

It's hateful, it's really not a good thing like Yang Xiu.

Yu Wenhua always remembers that when he was the emperor for fifteen years, Yang Xiu slapped himself in front of the world, and he would come back sooner or later. And at this moment, he is sneering in his heart, there is still a long time, we will have time to compete.

is more disdain for Yang Weiyang, the better the performance, the more uneasy the one sitting on the dragon chair will be. There is already a sister who may become the empress, and another son with the image of the emperor, Yang Xiu can't be better.

At this moment, Yang Guang looked at the courtiers with a smile, but Yang Weiyang was jealous.

What kind of person Yang Guang is, not to mention how future generations will evaluate him, Yang Weiyang can only summarize everything about him in twelve words. The depth of the city and the greatness of the ambition surpass the previous emperors.

If the five kingdoms are unified, then Yang Guang will be the first emperor of the ages who surpasses the first emperor.

It's a pity that in such a society, even if he is an emperor, he will be subject to control from all sides. Countless people in the world want to sit in that position, but they don't know that being an emperor is not as good as a cloth cloth.

Yang Lin suddenly spoke: "That's right, I agree with Weiyang's statement, since the establishment of the Great Sui Dynasty, if it comes to war, there is no year without war, if the treasury is empty, then it will endanger the territory of the Great Sui, I hope the emperor will think twice." ”

"Look at the emperor and think twice!" a group of generals knelt down and bowed.

And the ministers are looking at Yu Wenhua, in the imperial court, Yu Wenhua is the head of the Wenchen, without his nod, the civil officials will not have any expression.

But at this moment, Yu Wenhua felt that something was wrong, because the backer king Yang Lin would not rebel, even if he formed a party for personal gain, so what?

If a group of Wenchen openly supported him, then his situation would not be good.

Yang Guang can be said to be an enlightened emperor, and he also knows how to weigh up. But above the temple, to put it bluntly, a group of literati has the final say, and the generals can only march and fight. Bickering, those who go straight will not work.

Therefore, if Yu Wenhua does too much, then the great Sui will not be able to tolerate himself.

Among the Five Kingdoms, except for the position of Zhongshu Ling, everyone else has to consider whether their official position can withstand the emperor's anger.

Yu Wenhua stood in the first place, and basically no one saw the look on his face, and of course he didn't have any expression on his face.

But his heart was already extremely anxious, and Yang Guang just watched all this quietly.

Suddenly, someone among the ministers knelt down: "I hope the emperor thinks twice!"

This person is none other than Li Sansi, who thinks twice before acting.

He is not simple, he is a Jinshi and the first three years ago, and was arranged by Yang Guang to be promoted to a third-level Li Shilang in Zhongshu Province.

The province of Zhongshu is in charge of decision-making, and the province is in charge of refuting and deliberating. All important militaristic policies are predetermined by the Zhongshu Province, and drafted as an edict, submitted to the lower province for deliberation and repetition, and then issued and implemented by the Shangshu Province.

This is a big member of the three products, and he is only in his thirties, and his future prospects are limitless.

Yang Weiyang also turned his head to look at this Great Sui Qi man, the lucky one who had received the grace of the saint.

Li Sansi didn't look unusual, and no one in the crowd could pay attention to him at a glance. But this is such a person, but he is a member of the third grade, and I have to say that Yang Guang, the emperor, dares to use people.

Of course, Xishu has the most powerful intelligence network, so it is natural to know the origin of this person.

Li Sansi, the descendant of the Li clan, can be said to be the clansman of Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty. And Li Yuan was just an external disciple of the Li clan, but once he was dressed in a dragon robe, he became the emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

And the Li clan was also wiped out by Li Yuan, which involved some unknown secrets.

When Yang Guang was still the king of Jin, Li Sansi made a lot of effort behind his back. And at that time, he was only in his twenties, so you can imagine how talented and intelligent he was.

Li Sansi is also known as the first ghost talent of the Five Kingdoms, and is expected to become a figure like Wei Zheng of the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Wei Zheng is not a person who dares to face the emperor and push the entire Tang Dynasty to the top.

Therefore, even if he is still young, no one dares to underestimate him.

Or, now he is not to be underestimated.
