PS: It's on the shelves! Sasha is a blind and arrogant guy with an extreme lack of self-confidence, hehe, it's not contradictory. I began to think that there was something to write a book, and we would be able to write it, but after I started writing, I was afraid that I would not be able to sign a contract, and after signing the contract, I was optimistic, insisting that it was okay to update, but I was afraid that it would not be able to be put on the shelves. It's finally on the shelves today, I'm still scared, I'm afraid that I haven't subscribed to dry claws~ Ladies and gentlemen, everyone's meager subscription is the biggest motivation for yarn, although my parents don't make it, I hope you support it, so I have the motivation to continue writing! I love you guys so much~

"Without the people, who serves the eating, drinking, and Lazar of these noble masters in the palace, as well as the magnificent palace rockery and the mighty Grand Canal, aren't they all from the crystallization of the wisdom of the people?" Yuan Ziyan asked rhetorically.

"They have given something, and they have been paid accordingly." Yang Guang argued.

"Remuneration? The effort is far greater than the return. Yuan Ziyan said lightly: "The heavy burden of labor has made the people miserable, and this salary can't even solve their food and clothing." So as long as someone promises them more stable happiness, they will turn against each other and never look back. ”

Hey, Yang Guang let out a heavy sigh, his eyes were very empty, Yuan Ziyan said: "The ancients said, water can carry a boat or overturn a boat, the people are this water, the king is a boat on the water, you must be cautious to be stable." ”

Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, and then let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to say, why don't you let me meet you earlier. It's like asking, is Da Sui's qi really running out?

Yang Guang didn't say a word, feeling sleepy. Yuan Ziyan hurriedly helped him to rest on the dragon couch. The weather in the south is still very high even in this number nine weather, and as long as you are healthy, you will sweat slightly.

But Yang Guang is like spending winter. I felt better with two thick quilts on my body. However, just after falling asleep, Yang Guang turned over, and the dragon couch had been in disrepair for a long time due to the humid weather, and it always creaked and made annoying sounds.

Yang Guang slept very lightly. I was woken up by this annoying dragon couch several times, so I simply sat up with my clothes on, and scolded: "Who made this dragon couch." It's always creaking and disturbing dreams! ”

The eunuch and palace maid outside the door were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and the soldiers were in chaos, who still remembered who made the dragon bed. They all bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

Yang Guang thought about it. Or get up and go to the queen's bedchamber. Empress Xiao sat in front of the mirror, and suddenly heard that the emperor was coming, and she was overjoyed, and before she had time to dress up, Yang Guang had already entered the house.

Empress Xiao hurriedly gathered the green silk on her sideburns, stepped forward and saluted: "I didn't know that Your Majesty was here, the concubine ......."

However, Yang Guang didn't pay attention to her, but went straight to the bed. I pulled the quilt and fell asleep, and after a while, I made a slight snoring sound.

Empress Xiao was very puzzled. didn't dare to disturb the emperor's sleep, called Yuan Ziyan with a cold face, came to the outside and asked, "Why did Your Majesty come here in this palace?" ”

"Your Majesty's dragon couch is broken, it always makes a noise, it disturbs him and he can't sleep, he came to rest here." Yuan Ziyan said without concealment.

The corners of Empress Xiao's mouth twitched twice, and the good mood just now disappeared suddenly, it turned out that the emperor was just looking for a place to sleep, and he really used the queen's bedroom as an inn.

Empress Xiao held back her anger and said, "Since this is the case, it is better to choose high-quality wood and urgently build a new bed for Your Majesty." You can't sleep here in Hongu all the time. ”

"Queen Mother, I have a suggestion." Yuan Ziyan said at this time.

"Say."

"The wood produced in the tropics is dense and not easy to be eaten by corrosion and insects, and the crystal, oh, that is, water jade, has the effect of condensing qi, and can be used to make these two for His Majesty." Yuan Ziyan said tentatively.

Empress Xiao nodded, feeling that there was some truth, but Xinlian next to her showed a look of horror in her eyes, and said a few words in the queen's ear, Empress Xiao's face immediately turned white, and she said angrily: "Yuan Ziyan, Nanmu and water jade are mostly coffin materials, how can you let Your Majesty sleep on this?" ”

"That's all superstitious sayings, maybe it can ward off evil spirits, and it's not impossible for Your Majesty to operate from time to time." Yuan Ziyan said lightly.

"Ward off evil spirits?" Empress Xiao was so angry that her whole body trembled, "It's obviously self-inflicted!" ”

"Maybe it was Lord Yuan's strategy that made His Majesty dislike the queen again." Xinlian also helped.

"Do you have a part in talking?" Yuan Ziyan unceremoniously pushed the heart lotus, approached Queen Xiao, and whispered: "Empress, after a year, you will understand that today's move is the most correct decision in your life." ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's boring, I want to go!"

After Yuan Ziyan finished speaking, she turned around and left, Empress Xiao was stunned on the spot, looking sad, Xinlian came over and snorted: "Niangniang, don't listen to Yuan Ziyan's nonsense." At this time, Niangniang was squeezed out by those little foxes, and was at odds with His Majesty, if he made a dragon couch with this Nanmu, His Majesty would be even more annoyed when he learned it, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to break the mirror! ”

What Xinlian said was not unreasonable, but Empress Xiao shook her head slightly and left silently, going to the side hall to rest. After that, Empress Xiao ordered people to work overtime to make a dragon couch, in order to stabilize the site, but also used stones and various precious metals, crystals to cover all the exposed places of Nanmu, magnificent, extravagant.

This move was naturally criticized by some people, and when the war was in turmoil, it was even wasted for a bed, which also made many ministers shake their heads and sigh.

A few days later, when the dragon couch was ready, Yang Guangcai heard about it, and complained that the queen made the decision without authorization, and spent nearly 10,000 silver taels to make a dragon couch at this juncture, Queen Xiao bowed her head and was silent, Yang Guang couldn't bear to criticize more, so he acquiesced to the matter.

The twelfth year of the great cause is an extremely chaotic era, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty is panicked all day long, the officials of the Sui Dynasty are busy, the palace concubines of the Sui Dynasty are still secretly fighting, the people of the Sui Dynasty have a wait-and-see attitude, who gives them the greatest hope, they will not hesitate to support whom.

With the advancement of time, the great chaotic period in the history of the Sui Dynasty came, and in the thirteenth year of the great cause, the heroes of the world rose up one after another to counter the oppression of the Sui Dynasty government, and at the same time, they were not very united, using each other to exclude each other, and they were chaotic!

Just after the New Year, Qizhou Dufuwei occupied Liyang. Calling himself the Chief. Then there was Dou Jiande Yu Leshou who claimed to be the king of Changle, and then there was Xu Yuanlang, the thief of Yanzhou, who also wanted to fish in troubled waters. Led a rabble of more than 20,000 to raise troops.

In February, Shuofang Liang Shidu and Ma Yi Liu Wuzhou rebelled respectively. Later Liang divisions were all called emperors, the country name was Chu, and he was established by the Turks as Dadu Viga Khan; Liu Wuzhou was proclaimed emperor, and the Turks were established as Dingyang Khan.

When the news came, it once again alarmed the government and the opposition, and Yang Guang had a headache. The Turks co-opted the leaders of the rebel forces in the Central Plains with the intention of plotting against the Great Sui Dynasty. After the failure of the siege of the Turkic Yanmen, his vitality was greatly damaged. In this way, the rebel forces swarming in the Central Plains could only be used, but at the same time, the geographical advantages of the Turks were exposed, and they became a large rear where the rebels could retreat.

Li Shimin saw this, and came to his father Li Yuan to discuss: "Father." If the heroes riot today. Jiangdu has been isolated, and Sui's vitality is about to be exhausted, so please ask my father to make up his mind quickly. ”

"It's not too late to wait." Li Yuan hesitated.

"Father, the strength of the rebels from all walks of life is weak, don't fight now, let alone when!"

"Although there are many disputes, but the hearts of the people are not aligned, and the two will fight against each other in the future. There will eventually be those who will lose and quit. Li Yuan took a conservative approach.

"As the saying goes, the first strike is the strongest, and the opportunity is fleeting!" Li Shimin said anxiously.

Li Yuan glanced at him dissatisfied. He said coldly: "Shimin, most of the Great Sui Jiangshan is still in the hands of the emperor at the moment, and he has not acted for his father, why are you so anxious?" Even if your father becomes the new lord of the country in the future, this crown prince will not be your turn! Let's go down! ”

A few words were like cold water pouring down on his head, Li Shimin's heart was cold, and he still defended himself: "The child is not planning for himself, just because the emperor is suspicious, the child can't bear to see his father sad and bored every day." If you make a mistake in your words and deeds, you hope that your father will punish you! ”

Hey, Li Yuan sighed, the sons who came out of him have all grown up, and the second son Li Shimin is even more outstanding, and his comprehensive quality is better than that of all his sons. And this is exactly what Li Yuan is worried about, although he has never been an emperor, his grandchildren have served several emperors for several generations.

No matter which dynasty or generation, the matter of fighting for the crown has never stopped, the eldest son Li Jiancheng is steady, but he was born with the second son Li Shimin is not harmonious, the youngest son Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng are very close, Li Shimin is in the position of being isolated among the brothers, but this son does not think so, he is studious and progressive, and follows him on the battlefield all the year round, and he has won the respect and support of many generals at a young age.

Li Yuan looks at it as a person who has come over, Li Shimin is definitely not a peaceful person, if he establishes himself as the emperor, how can Li Shimin be willing to be subordinate to others and satisfy the identity of a prince.

"Father, at this time, you can repair a letter to the Turks, and with our current strength, we can take the initiative to unite with him, and it will be smooth sailing." Li Shimin interrupted Li Yuan's contemplation and said tentatively.

"Why are you also confused about this!" Li Yuan said unhappily: "At this time, when the book is repaired, the rebellion is implemented, and whether it succeeds or not, it is controlled by others." It is very easy to unite with the Turks, but there must be one condition, and that is that I will establish myself as emperor, and this matter is too hasty, and we will talk about it later! ”

Li Shimin felt helpless, and talked about it later, his father was really old, and he became indecisive and indecisive at the critical moment, and he had to give him a dose of fierce medicine in the future to make him make up his mind.

Seeing that his son didn't speak, Li Yuan couldn't bear it, and comforted: "Shimin, don't be in a hurry in everything. In this way, I will give you 100,000 soldiers and horses, and you will go to suppress the rebellions from all walks of life, which can not only perfunctory the imperial court, but also recruit rebels and surrender and strengthen your own strength. ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said that he would not disappoint his father. Li Shimin had just withdrawn from his father's room, and two young people walked over, one handsome and steady, and the other with a hippie smile, it was the eldest brother Li Jiancheng and the fourth brother Li Yuanji.

When Li Yuanji saw Li Shimin coming out, he glanced in the direction of the room and said with a smile: "Second brother, are you here to instigate your father's rebellion again?" ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin hurriedly looked around and said in a low voice: "Fourth, this kind of talk can no longer be nonsense in front of people in the future!" ”

"Hey, what, isn't that what you've been looking forward to?" Li Yuanji disagreed.

"Fourth, your second brother is right, let me hear this kind of thing in the future, no matter what my father does, I will punish you heavily." It was a matter of life and death, and Li Jiancheng also sank his face.

Li Yuanji snorted, rolled his eyes, and said unhappily: "I just can't get used to seeing someone, jumping up and down, and revolving around my father every day!" (To be continued......)
