Chapter 9 Xingyang Taishou

Wang Shichong, full of words, originally surnamed Zhi, is a Hu person from the Western Regions, living in Xinfeng. His grandfather died at a young age, and lived with his father in his mother's maiden house since he was a child, so he changed his surname to Wang, and liked to read all kinds of books, especially the art of war, fortune telling, and astronomical calendar calculations, and joined the Yang family camp of the Sui Dynasty before the world was unified.

In the middle of Emperor Wen of Sui, he was awarded the official position of Yitong Sansi according to his military exploits, and then promoted to a member of the military department. He was good at making presentations to the imperial court and was familiar with various laws and regulations, so he used the provisions of the law to cheat for personal gain and do whatever he wanted. Sometimes, when someone rebukes him, he will use clever sophistry and rhetoric to disguise and use fierce words, and although people know that he is not correct, no one can make him admit his mistake.

During the great cause of Emperor Yang of Sui, he was promoted to Jiangdu Cheng and concurrently served as the palace supervisor of Jiangdu. At that time, Emperor Yang inspected Jiangdu many times, Wang Shichong was good at observing Emperor Yang's face, flattering and obeying his wishes, and every time he talked about political affairs in the court, Emperor Yang always said yes. So he made jade carvings and landscape paintings, falsely claiming precious handicrafts from afar, and dedicated them to Emperor Yang to curry favor, so Emperor Yang favored him even more.

After Yang Guangsan's defeat of Goryeo, there were already signs of chaos in the world, and Wang Shichong saw this sign and knew that the political situation of the Sui Dynasty would be chaotic in the future, so he secretly befriended heroes and heroes, widely bought people's hearts, and released those who committed crimes and were imprisoned by distorting the law, so as to show his personal favor.

Seeing that everyone in the court was looking at him, the old fox said indifferently: "Your Majesty, Jiang Du Fuwei and Li Zitong have joined forces to coerce, and now it is already very tight, Zhang Dashuai is a loyal minister of our court, and he is the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, this Pingkou matter is none other than Zhang Dashuai, and Xingyang is too guarded by Yang Qing to govern the place, but he is weak to lead the troops to fight, and he is a child of the clan, it is really inappropriate to stay in the dangerous place of the soldiers, although the blue sea is young, but the martial arts are excellent, and Zhang Dashuai personally recommended it, it can be used, and although the Wagang army was defeated for a while, but the remaining forces should not be underestimated.

Therefore, according to the old minister's opinion, he simply let Zhang Dashuai serve as Yangzhou Tongshou, and Yangzhou Governor Wei Chi Sheng as the deputy general, leading Yangzhou soldiers and horses to fight against Du Fuwei and Li Zitong, and then adding Lanhai as Xingyang Taishou, responsible for recruiting soldiers in the local area, and leading the troops to fight against the remaining thieves in Wagang is the best policy. ”

"Well, it's worthy of being a real henchman, and you can solve two dilemmas without paying money and without spending a single soldier."

Hearing this proposal, Yang Guang was overjoyed, the clan outside really made him feel like a fish in his throat, if those clans and the anti-thieves united and harmed the country, it was the most desirable to stay by his side. So Yang Guang glanced at Yuwen Zhiji below and said, "Yuwen Qing's family, there is news about the longevity formula." ”

Suddenly asked, Yuwen Zhihe stood up with his head down and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the Rakshasa Woman is erratic, it is really difficult to inquire, and according to the information obtained by the minister, the Goryeo Yijian Pavilion sent another one to infiltrate the Central Plains. ”

"Hmph, it seems that there is no Hua and Qing family, and your Yuwen family will no longer have anyone to take on the big responsibility. From now on, the Luoyang City Palace will be on increased security to prevent assassins from infiltrating. ”

Yang Guang heard that there was another Rakshasa woman, how ugly and ugly her face was, those Goryeo assassins were really difficult, as long as they didn't die, or the assassination characters didn't die, they would never stop, but those women were strong in martial arts, coming and going like the wind, even if they were masters in the imperial city, it was difficult to resist the assassins sneaking in. So he thought about it and said: "Spread my will, and the lord of the Yuwen valve, Yuwen and the old lady of the Dugu valve, came to the imperial city to escort them. ”

"Yes."

In the face of this holy decree, Yuwen Zhihe and Dugu Feng responded in unison.

Yuwen is the first master of the Yuwen family, and his strength is many times higher than Zhiyu Culture, he followed Yang Guang to fight against Goryeo, and was seriously injured after fighting with Fu Cailin Snow Valley for hundreds of rounds and was buried alive by the avalanche for three days, and finally Yang Su led people to dig him out when the whole person had become an ice sculpture.

Later, Yang Su, Li Yuan, and Dugu Feng did not save him with all their strength, and then Yang Guang, who was still in the prime of life, made a move and poured his own natal true dragon qi into his body, which not only brought him back to life, but also made Yuwen break through his own limit, absorbing Yang Guang's natal true dragon qi and condensing into an ice spirit, and the ice spirit fused with himself, and made Yuwen's body into an immortal and incorruptible realm.

Because he was a courtier, Yuwen was unable to turn the ice spirit into a true dragon form, so he combined the ice spirit to form a more lethal ice spirit qilin energy, and he had been practicing martial arts at home for many years, and he didn't like to be in the court.

As for the old woman of the Dugu Valve, You Chuhong, is the mother of the Dugu Valve, the owner of the Dugu Valve, who was already a beauty in the famous town when she was young, and since marrying into the Dugu Valve, she practiced the ancestral swordsmanship of the Dugu Valve "Biluo Hongchen Swordsmanship" and became famous, and it was also with the resounding Demon Gate Yin Kui Sect Sect Sect Master Zhu Yuyan for a while, after the age of sixty, he abandoned the sword and used the staff, and created the "cloak staff method" with extraordinary talent, but because he almost went mad when he practiced, he left a trail of trouble, and relapsed from time to time, like asthma.

Accustomed to using a five-foot long bamboo branch-shaped jasper staff to perform the cloak staff method, the move is both rigid and soft, implying the characteristics of whips, swords, knives, sticks, spears and other weapons, and the cloak staff method is more useful for hitting the enemy with strength, plus the mysterious footwork, even in the face of more than one opponent, it is still like fighting alone, not afraid of group battles.

It's a pity that the Lord of the Song Valve is in Lingnan, and he doesn't listen to Yang Guang's command, and Li Yuan's martial arts are the last of the four major valves, and he is in Taiyuan as a gateway to Chang'an. At present, only Yuwen Injury and You Chuhong entered the palace to escort Yang Guang a little at ease.

The decree was immediately issued, and Luoyang soon returned to his old life.

In Xingyang, Zhang Xutuo received the holy decree and unfolded it to reveal that it was really like this, so he held a meeting of generals, to put it bluntly, he wanted to arrange the handover work, and he led people to Yangzhou. In the holy decree, Yang Guang even asked Zhang Xutuo to press Yang Qing to return to Luoyang first, and then go to Yangzhou.

"Ah Hai, you are strong in martial arts, I am very relieved to leave you to be the Taishou of Xingyang, remember not to rush to battle, although the Wagang army is divided into two factions, as long as you attack one side, the other side will inevitably attack, and then it will form a difficult situation of being surrounded before and after the Great Sea Temple. But they are not without flaws, as long as you stick to Xingyang, with the support of grain and grass in Luokoucang, and the geographical advantage of Xingyang, as long as you recruit a few capable people to manage it well, there will be no shortage of money, as long as you wait until the two factions of the Wagang Army are short of food and grass, they will be self-defeating. ”

Looking at the blue sea, Zhang Xutuo Zunzun taught: "I won't take the soldiers away, at the moment there are only 4,000 cavalry in Xingyang, and the total number of infantry is 10,000, so I can only be forced to defend." And the people near Xingyang Si'an, I have only recruited a few thousand people in a few months, you stay to do the work of the people, as long as you have the support of the people, you are not afraid of no soldiers. ”

"Yes, old man."

The sea tiger nodded in response.

On the second day, after Zhang Xutuo finished explaining all the work, he followed Yang Qing, the former Xingyang Taishou, and led Luo Shixin, Cheng Zhijie and Qin Qiong back to Luoyang to resume their lives.

Watching a few people leave Xingyang at the head of the city, Haihu's face soon showed irrepressible joy, and he only made him look up to the sky and laugh three times in his heart: Hahaha, this Xingyang is Lao Tzu's alone!!

Taishou Mansion is located in the center of the inner city of Xingyang City, Yang Qing, as a Sui Dynasty clan, was greedy for pleasure, and the mansion was built magnificently and in a myriad of weather.

It's a pity that he was taken away by Zhang Xutuo, only a few concubines were taken away, and all the rest of the looting was left in the Taishou Mansion, and the maids in the mansion who were looted by Yang Qing and are now staying in the mansion are all young and beautiful, very amorous and lovely. It is still a lovely person who blows, plays, sings, piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings.

The moment the sea tiger came to the Taishou Mansion, he received everything into his own hands.

Xingyang is located in the south of the Grand Canal Tongji Canal, along the canal to the west, only through the Tiger Prison, Yanshi two cities can be the east capital of Luoyang, even if the waterway, but only a few days of water, because of its geographical location is the Yellow River Grand Canal and other rivers confluence, and is the place where the post road of the past dynasties must pass, so it has been very prosperous since the Autumn and Warring States periods, it is the center of water transportation in the east and west, and its importance is second only to Luoyang.

Therefore, although at the time of this war, Xingyang City is still very prosperous, and Xingze, which is close to the Grand Canal, is the main and secondary, Rongze and other large wharves in Rongyang, which is the place where ships are transferred, and Xingyang is the transfer place of the south ship and the north horse, and it is the intersection of Weishui and the Grand Canal. Both of these areas are located on major transportation routes, and a long official road is formed in the middle, and the houses and shops along the road are connected, which is a major feature of the area.

The sea tiger who lived in the Taishou Mansion, and the first order he gave was to build a star-picking platform in the mansion. This platform is nearly fifty meters high, the bottom is built by a large amount of wood, the top part is a wooden house, the top of the wooden house is something similar to a huge lookout, people standing on it can not only have a panoramic view of Xingyang City, but also can observe all the movements around it, as long as someone comes to attack Xingyang, I am afraid that the people and horses have not yet arrived under Xingyang City, and the traces have long been detected by the sea tiger.

And this star-picking platform at night, as long as you look up at the night sky, you feel that you are really close to the stars in the sky, and it seems that as long as you stretch out your hand, you can pick your hand, so it is called the star-picking platform.

In this era, there is a lot of manpower and wood, and there is a lot of money to squander in the Taishou Mansion, so the sea tiger is not distressed at all, it was Yang Qing who was restrained before, and now he is a fortune boy.

In fact, the people of the world are very satisfied, as long as you give them some favors, they will remember your good, so Haihu is easier than Yang Qing to gain the favor of the people of Xingyang, the reason is that he buys things and gives money, hires people to build a star-picking platform, and can't help but owe a penny, and also gives each person an extra ten taels of silver, all of which are given money first and then worked, which is really unique in the previous Taishou.

After the Star Picking Platform was built, Haihu issued a second order to recruit talents, as long as there are talents, Xingyang Taishou will accept them all. With the promulgation of this directive, it attracted an unexpected talent to Haihu.

Because Wei Zheng came, he came to apply after seeing the documents issued by Haihu to recruit talents.

PS: We won't sign a contract, and it's useless to ask for a reward, so I won't ask for it. But clicks and recommendation tickets are still required, and they are still very violently requested!!
