Yang Tong stayed in the eldest grandson's innocent bedroom, since he became the emperor and had children, Yang Tong is not as foolish as before, and occasionally plays back to the big melee, and several imperial concubines are also going back to different places.

"Husband!"

After sending away a few sisters, the eldest grandson Wujian felt that Yang Tong at this time belonged to him, and couldn't wait to lie in Yang Tong's arms, and screamed quite emotionally, with a deep affection flashing in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Yang Tong, who was silently thinking about his thoughts, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Is the husband going on another expedition??" The eldest grandson asked softly, although it is an iron law that a woman does not interfere in politics, but living in this kind of family, her husband is a state affair, and it is impossible to do it without asking, is it wrong for them to care about their husband's safety?

"No! The matter of unifying the world is not in a hurry, and we are not in a hurry, we all unanimously decided to slow down, and the southern world will give Li Yuan, Li Mi, and Xiao Mo a headache for a while. ”

Yang Tong said with a smile, at this moment, the territory of the Great Sui is already big enough, if you blindly seek to be big, I am afraid that you will become the second Li Yuan, resulting in an unstable foundation and a complete loss of control.

Second, it is natural to deal with the world's families, and the deeper he understands the family, the more Yang Tong is frightened by their strength. The power on the face of the world's family, Yang Tong is fully confident to eliminate, but that is at the cost of endless assassinations, Yang Tong has the ability to protect himself, but his relatives cannot, and even if he is him, it is impossible to take precautions at all times; In that kind of day, let alone the emperor of the world, even if he becomes the Jade Emperor, he will not have a day of happiness; Relatively speaking, Li Yuan, Li Mi, and Xiao Mo know the secret forces of the family better than Yang Tong, and once these heroes slaughter the family in order to annihilate the internal enemy or for money and food, these terrifying dark forces of the family will naturally not regard Yang Tong as the primary enemy!

"Husband, I'm scared." Quietly leaning on Yang Tong's arms, enjoying the comfort and sense of security brought by that spacious embrace, the eldest grandson Wujian felt that the souls of the two were integrated at this moment, which was an indescribable subtle feeling, but it was very real.

The eldest grandson Wujian had a quiet and elegant face on her face, and if she had a soft murmur, if it weren't for Yang Tong's keen senses, she might not be able to hear it.

"It should be that Luoyang is too close to the battlefield, or I'll send you back to Yecheng!"

Yang Tong hugged the eldest grandson's innocent and soft body, looking at the thick melancholy on her stunning face, he was very sorry in his heart, he only wanted to reunite the family, but ignored the anxiety and fear in their hearts, they should have asked in advance.

"No, no, no! That's not true... I know Luoyang is safe... It's basically impossible for the enemy to get in, and I'm reluctant to part with my husband! The eldest grandson Wujian was a little anxious, for fear that his husband would misunderstand, so he would send him back to Yecheng and live that day when Sijun was gone.

"And what are you afraid of?" Yang Tong smelled the intoxicating fragrance and was quite puzzled in his heart.

The eldest grandson Wujian pulled Yang Dong's big hand, put it on his full chest, and said softly: "Fujun's previous enemies are all visible people, and they are all fighting with swords and guns!" But now it's different, now that my Great Sui is getting bigger and bigger, the enemy will be more and more afraid of Fujun, and they will do anything to deal with Fujun. In the future, most of the enemies will not dare to stand blatantly opposite the husband! When my father was alive, he said that the most terrible enemy is the invisible enemy, they will hide in the shadows like poisoned arrows, and they will launch deadly attacks whenever they have the opportunity... That's why I'm worried, I'm scared..."

"At this point, there's no turning back. We can only move forward step by step, and the result of going backward will end in a tragic end...... But don't worry, what we occupy in this world is not an empty half of the country, and we have the absolute strength to crush all enemies! Yang Tong hugged the jade man in his arms, his eyes were full of pride, and he said with high spirits: "The reason why we stopped the pace of the battle is not because we are afraid of failure, but because we are creating an unprecedented great era!" ”

He is indeed creating an era with like-minded elites, a great era that breaks the strange circle that has been precipitated for thousands of years, and a great era that can make his nation walk in the forefront of the world...... Based on the current transportation conditions, communication conditions, climatic conditions, medical conditions, and population basic ...... It is a joke that it is impossible to unify the whole world, and with this filling the tens of millions of people in the territory of the Great Sui, even if Yang Tong conquered a large territory like Genghis Khan, it is impossible to occupy those places from the fact that he can.

But Yang Tong can broaden people's horizons, lead people to break the inherent thinking, exert infinite imagination, and create a skill that surpasses other races, so as to lay a good foundation for future generations, and the world may no longer be ruled by the Yang family for thousands of years, but this nation can throw other civilizations out of more than a dozen streets in the fields of military, culture, science and technology. Otherwise, he would be no different from Bai Lai.

The eldest grandson looked at her arrogant husband, a pair of phoenix eyes rippling softly, a beautiful and incoherent face, and jade cheeks, becoming more and more gentle and charming under the hazy candlelight.

A man's high-spirited self-confidence is his most charming, if there is no these, what is the difference between Yang Tong and an ordinary humble son? Inadvertently, Li Shimin suddenly came to mind in her mind, the two of them seem to be very similar, but they are very different, she used to think that she would stay with Li Shimin for the rest of her life, but in order to pursue more authority...... not only abandoned her ruthlessly, but also sent someone to kill her, when she recalled Li Shimin along her thoughts, she suddenly found that Li Shimin's appearance became a vague shadow, maybe it won't be long before that past experience is left with pieces of broken memories, and the name Li Shimin, right? Thinking of this, the eldest grandson Wujian couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

"Husband, do you think authority is really important?" The eldest grandson turned over, climbed on Yang Dong's body, and stared at Yang Tong face to face.

"If I don't have power, can you lie on the emperor?"

"......" The eldest grandson Wujian rolled his eyes, angry and laughing in his heart.

“……”

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

To the east of Xiangyang, there is a big mansion, which is the mansion of Pei Ju, who has faded out of the eyes of the world.

Pei Ju's life is very regular, every morning in the backyard to practice the sword for half an hour, and practice the Taoist technique that is said to be obtained from a cave in Mount Emei, and then wash, eat some breakfast, rest for a few hours as you like, or go out to visit friends, or fish in the back garden of Fuzhong. Afternoons are his time to read and think.

At this time, Pei Ju wore a coat and a hat, sitting on a big rock in the back garden to fish. In his words, fishing is the easiest time for him to meditate.

When fishing, he always dresses up as a fisherman, like a real fisherman, sitting quietly on the rocks to fish, windy and rainy, and sometimes going to the river to fish, enjoying the natural scenery.

Although Pei Ju has become a leader, he still pays attention to the situation in the world, especially the Sui and Tang dynasties, and pays attention to it every day.

He is a very shrewd person, very early to return home, Li Tang at the beginning of the establishment of Li Yuan, in order to win the hearts of the family, the title of official, the family occupies all the important positions in the court, is to Li Tang Siping and steadily occupy Guanzhong, Bashu, Jingzhou and other places, Li Yuan may be able to bear it at first, but with the gradual shrinking of the territory of the Tang Dynasty, resulting in a situation where there are many officials like dogs, these large and small Beijing officials are as high as more than 3,000 people, among which there are countless duplicate positions and repeated responsibilities, these people can make trouble if they have nothing to do. When something happens, they shirk each other's responsibilities, not only is it meaningless to the development of our Tang Dynasty, but there are huge hidden dangers. In such a situation, it is imperative to dismiss meaningless, worthless, incompetent, inactive, and repetitive officials in order to revitalize the government, otherwise, this inefficient officialdom that has caused a heavy burden on the imperial court will become the cause of Li Tang's defeat.

If you are interested, you will go down by yourself, for example, he Pei Ju, who is not interested, the end is not expected to be too good, Pei Ju has heard that Li Yuan is going to open the knife to the officials and officials. However, after the downsizing, many problems will arise: how to reduce the number of employees and who to reduce? What happens after the cut? These are all headaches that can lead to turmoil if not handled well. In the face of the phenomenon of over-the-top officials and over-the-top, the great unified dynasties have chosen to let it go, so as not to shake the fundamentals. It is this practice of letting things go unchecked that has led to the fact that there is no way to deal with the situation when the time comes when the officials are overly arrogant and the officials are really endangering the country.

In Pei Ju's view, layoffs and layoffs are also Li Tang's best way to survive at present, otherwise, the chaotic court will become the root cause of the army's failure, but this practice will cause the interests of most people to be damaged, will people agree? Especially the current situation of the Li Tang Dynasty is quite bad, and if this happens, Li Yuan must be prepared for chaos. However, as a founding monarch, in the struggle for power, we should not only be open-minded, make the best use of our talents, and embrace all rivers, but also ruthlessly eradicate dissidents, eradicate incompetents, and make way for loyal and genuine talents.

In this regard, the ancestors and grandchildren of Yang Guang have done quite well, for example, Yang Guang reduced the ninth-class title to the third class, and eliminated sixty percent of incompetent and mediocre people, which is quite clever and thoughtful, if it is not for him to both open up and govern officials, too eager for quick success, with the heyday of the Great Sui at that time, it was the joint rebellion of the Guanlong Group, and it could not shake the foundation of the Great Sui, and where did it come from today's troubled times? But as Yang Guang's important minister, Pei Ju also understood the reason why Yang Guang was anxious at that time, Yang Guang's heirs were thin, his four sons died, one was wasted, and one was young, and his three grandsons were also young, he was afraid that he was not there, and his descendants could not suppress the Guanlong Group, and the Sui Dynasty was usurped by the Guanlong Group, so he was in a hurry to abolish the Guanlong Group in his lifetime, but it was also because of his eagerness, and natural disasters continued, resulting in chaos in the world, and various families supported the puppets and took them as the vanguard, and dismantled the majesty of the Great Sui Dynasty step by step. finally launched Li Yuan to clean up the mess; But the Guanlong Group did not expect that there were such powerful descendants among the Yang family, and when the soldiers were rising, they would save the building of the generals, re-correct the Great Sui, and operate it thrivingly.

Pei Ju believes that after this battle, the world's family will be greatly injured and fall into a rather weak dormant period, if the winner is Li Yuan, then the family still has a glimmer of life, and can make a comeback in a few decades, but if the winner is Yang Tong, then, the family will be suppressed by the Great Sui official system, even if it can enter the court after a few decades, it will not be able to restore the previous prosperity, just because under the education of the Great Sui, the Hanmen will produce a large number of talents, and there may be few talented people, but they can't stand the huge population base of the Hanmen, Even if everyone in your family is an elite, there is always one person in 10,000 Han who is equal to one of your children, right? In this way, how can the family, which has lost the support of the imperial court and the lifeblood of the imperial court, be able to continue for thousands of years like before? As long as a family does not produce an outstanding talent within one or two generations, then its decline will be a foregone conclusion.

At the same time, the new family can not continue to lose, in the face of this general trend, no one can be strong for three generations, the competition is too great, if you are not outstanding, it is normal to be replaced. It was an era when the strong were respected, and the phenomenon of officials protecting each other would certainly occur, but it could not harm the foundation of the entire country, and at most it could only be a disaster, but in terms of the system of preparing officials to supervise local officials like the Great Sui, how long could this kind of person who relied on his relationship to be in power hide? Those reserve officials are eager to kill you so that you can get to the top, once you yourself have a handle in his hands, it is strange that he doesn't hurry up and use it, and give you time to cause trouble? Don't even think about it.

What is the potential? In fact, it is the heart of a person, if you want to control a person's mind, it is difficult, even Pei Ju can't do it, and a person's heart is difficult to affect the overall situation, and the potential is the common interest in the hearts of most people, as long as the interests of most people are satisfied, these people will support you.

Yang Tong's various ways of governing the country and governing officials are not only in line with the interests of the royal family, but also in line with the interests of ninety percent of the population, so that the royal interests have also become the common interests of the people in the world, so how can the ninety percent of the people who have benefited be opposed? And the population of less than 10%, if you don't have the support of those people who have the same interests as the royal family, you can't go against it, you can't go back, this is the general trend.

Pei Ju groped the way to the new system of the Sui Dynasty one by one, he found that this system is a contest between people, competition between people, and has nothing to do with your family, and even between each other, there is also a competition between interests, if there are two people in the family competing for the same position, the loser must be unwilling and unhappy, so how can it be possible to run a family with one heart and one mind with the victorious people? How could it be possible to form a family like an iron bucket? At first, we may be able to tolerate each other, but what about later? Who doesn't have their own selfishness?

Combing through them one by one, Pei Ju found that the previous gameplay was no longer good, at least not in the Sui Dynasty, and even if the Sui Dynasty was defeated, the system he created would be continued, because it was in line with the interests of the royal family of any dynasty, so don't look at Li Yuan scolding Yang Tong the most ruthlessly, once he unifies the world, he will still move here and use it under a different name.

He saw through this new routine, so after Zhishi, he worked hard to teach the children of the clan, hoping that they would have the ability to compete and survive in the future.

At this time, the buoy of the fishing rod moved, and a fish was hooked. Pei Ju was just about to pull up the fishing rod, and the housekeeper hurriedly ran over and shouted: "Master! The eldest son is here. ”

"It's coming, it's coming, what's the fuss?" Pei Ju found that the fish that had just been hooked had run away, and he was a little unhappy to re-bait.

"Father!" After a while, the eldest son Pei Xuanji came in a hurry.

"What's the flustered about? The sky won't fall. Pei Ju glared at the eldest son, this is the eldest son in the Li Tang Rite Department as a langzhong, this is Pei Ju's previous department, Pei Xuanji after such an arrangement, quite a bit of a son inherits his father's business, but he is very disappointed in his son, especially at this time, he seems to smell the smell of burning on the eldest son, a person in his forties is still so frizzy, how can such a person inherit his family business?

"Father!" Pei Xuanji tried to calm the emotions in his heart, and reported in a proper manner: "The child got the news that Yang Tong had lifted the ban on the family family, and many family members sent people to Luoyang, and it seemed that they were ready to have a relationship with the Sui Dynasty. ”

"You mean that I, Pei, should also send someone?" Pei Ju's expression was quite ugly.

Pei Xuanji was stunned for a moment and said, "The child has this intention, but everything still needs to be decided by the father." ”

Pei Ju snorted coldly: "If you go, it will be for my Pei clan to be destroyed." ”

Pei Xuanji said in a pale trembling voice: "Father is talking about the saint? ”

Pei Ju has been a great official of the Northern Qi Dynasty, a general, a knife on the battlefield to cut people, a Turkic envoy, an envoy to the Western Regions, and a Great Sui Xiangguo. Pei Xuanji himself is not a fool, and there is a father like Pei Ju, who has rich political ability, and he can think of Li Yuan as soon as Pei Ju prompts, which in itself is a manifestation of ability, but Pei Ju asks his son with his own level, which is embarrassing people. Pei Xuanji felt that a hundred of himself together was not as good as half of his father's ability. If he was so powerful, it would not be Pei Lian's turn to be the patriarch of the Pei clan.

"It's not too stupid."

"Father, please." Pei Xuanji said respectfully.

"The saint, on the surface, is very tolerant, and tries his best to show his imperial mind, it seems to be magnanimous, but in fact, he can't rub a little sand in his eyes, and he will always inadvertently reveal the darkness in his heart, such as this imperial expedition, he took away all the elite divisions, which seems to be needed for war, in fact, he has never been to the front line at all, and has been hoarding troops in Xinye for a very high-sounding reason, saying that it is to prevent the Sui army from fleeing to Xiangyang, do you know what he wants to do?"

"Prevent changes in Xiangyang."

Pei Ju said coldly: "To put it bluntly, what he is guarding against is the major families in Xiangyang City, and the reason why he has evacuated the elite troops is nothing more than to let those ghosts think that they have a chance to get out of the hole by themselves, so that he can clean up these people." ”

"He, why did he do that?" Pei Xuanji, originally thought that Li Yuan believed in everyone, so he walked so simply, but he didn't expect this to be a killing game, so to speak, all the movements of the family were under his surveillance, and when he thought of his previous thoughts, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, glad that he had discussed with his father first, and did not rashly send someone to Luoyang.

"There are three reasons, one is that the family occupies too many official positions, not only can not help the imperial court, but also become an obstacle to the promulgation of various decrees, causing the Li Tang Dynasty to fall behind in everything, and the saint regards these people as the culprits of Li Tang falling into such a field."

"Second, why did the Guanlong Group support the Shengshang to overthrow the Sui Dynasty in the first place? It is nothing more than trying to gain more power through this means, but the repeated defeats of the Holy Lords in the military have not only lost their investment to a mess, but also lost their foothold, and their dissatisfaction with the Holy Lord has reached the extreme; Sheng Shang was afraid that these people would support another person to overthrow himself in the same way that the Guanlong group supported Emperor Wen to overthrow the Northern Zhou Dynasty and support him to overthrow the Sui Dynasty. ”

"Third, the saint is like a crazy gambler, he needs a large number of troops to make money, and he needs a lot of money and food to feed the army. Where is the money and food now? In the hands of the family, the saint needs to find an excuse, only by killing all the family members with a high-sounding killing, can he obtain countless money and food to supplement the army's loss in a short period of time. But obviously, everyone is not stupid, so they have not taken action for a long time, but at this time, the Sui Dynasty made a move to lift the ban on the family in order to dominate the world. So, the family who was also crazy couldn't hold it back, and couldn't wait to hug Yang Tong's thigh and call his father. ”

This is actually the same as the police deliberately letting a murderer grab a gun and then shoot it, but a person is in despair and suddenly sees life, how can he consider so many consequences? But obviously, Pei Ju saw it quite thoroughly, and he knew that his son would not dare to make decisions on such a major matter, so he analyzed them one by one.

"This ...... Isn't he afraid that the big families will rebel together? Pei Xuanji was stunned by his father's words.

"These people have no soldiers and horses, how can the family soldiers and private soldiers resist the upright army? No matter how many dead people the Guan Long family raises, they are all loose sand; Under the sharp attack of the regular division, the assassination technique is like a baby dancing a sword. ”

Pei Ju shook his head, feeling sad for Li Yuan, a good situation, in Li Yuan's hands, it actually became like this, so that Pei Ju didn't know what to say. Think about it at the beginning, how majestic and arrogant were these Guanlong family gate valves entrenched in the Guanzhong, in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and in the Great Sui of the Second Emperor of Wenwu, and how domineering Li Yuan was at the beginning of his ascension to the throne? Now he was actually killed by a hairy child with a group of civil and military warriors, who fled in embarrassment, fled from Bingzhou to Guanzhong, and fled from Guanzhong to Xiangyang. Where else is there to stand?

Pei Xuanji didn't know what to do, and asked softly, "Father, what should we do?" ”

"I heard that the price of grain in the city is rising steadily, and you keep the rations of the whole clan for three years, and sell them all at a fair price to help the court tide over the difficulties."

Pei Xuanji smiled bitterly: "We only have about 140,000 stones, which is a drop in the bucket." ”

"You're really, really hostage!" Pei Ju glared at his son coldly, and forcibly restrained his dissatisfaction, "It is a great achievement to appease the people of Xiangyang for the saint!" As for how much strength you have, the Holy One doesn't care, what he values is your attitude, as long as you do your best, he will be happy, understand? And do you think that after the Holy Lord came back and slaughtered all the families, we would dare to keep so much food? ”

"Got it!" With such a father, Pei Xuanji is also quite helpless, among his peers, he is definitely an outstanding person, but in front of his father, he will always be an unqualified child.

He thought for a while, and then said: "Whether it is Bashu or Jingzhou, these two years are bumper years!" But there was a food shortage in Xiangyang, and the child felt that all this was under the control of the Sui Dynasty. ”

"Hey, it's not too stupid!"

“……”

Yang Tong promoted Yanhuang Tongbao back then, and purchased a large number of materials in the Tang Realm from the recycled inferior coins and worn coins, such as grain, cloth, silk cloth, and even salt, tea, iron and other materials. In recent years, although the Holy Lord has promoted the 'Kaiyuan Tongbao' of this dynasty, it has long been imitated by others, and the fake and shoddy 'Kaiyuan Tongbao' has been used in a large number of Li Tang territories, causing the 'Kaiyuan Tongbao' to be a waste; all kinds of materials have been swept away by the Sui Dynasty's Ministry of Commerce! ”

Pei Ju sighed: "Yang Tong can even think of this kind of method, it's really amazing, although this is not a war, but it is invisibly sucking Li Tang's bone marrow, it is more terrifying than war, and it is even more difficult to deal with, it is normal for Li Tang's livelihood to wither." And what about the Holy One? If you are not an opponent on the battlefield, you can't do it outside the battlefield, how can you fight this battle? Since losing Guanzhong, Li Tang's side has lost the opportunity to win, but unfortunately, there are still too many problems here, a two people only focus on the interests in front of them, how can this be a Jedi counterattack? And obviously, the saint also realized that the internal enemy was far greater than the outside, so he set up this situation, intending to catch it all and sort out Li Tang's officialdom, however, this would inevitably cause great turmoil, how could Yang Tong give him time to clarify one by one? ”

"That's what my father said." Pei Xuanji nodded very approvingly, Yang Tong's various methods are one thing, but more importantly, Li Tang is not united internally, and various families are eager to take all the money and food of Datang as their own, and one by one they regard Li Tang as their own materials, and sell them to Dasui through various means, and when the country needs it, they are all stingy and reluctant to donate much. With such internal and external collusion to dig out Li Tang's roots, Li Tang is not Yang Dong's opponent no matter how rich he is. Here, of course, there is also a credit to their Pei family. After all, it's normal for people not to die for themselves.

"Alas!" Pei Ju sighed deeply and said: "When Emperor Wu went south to Jiangdu, he handed over the two capitals of Daxing and Luoyang and countless inventory accumulations to the two young emperors and grandsons, just like making a child go through the city with a lot of money. ”

That is the dynasty that he has been loyal to for most of his life, his blood and sweat, his years are dedicated to the Great Sui, it is false to say that there is no emotion, and Yang Guang treats him really well, so after the Tang Dynasty, he has never said half a bad word about the Sui Dynasty and Yang Guang, this may be the friendship between monarchs and ministers. sighed for a while, and explained to Pei Xuanji: "Luoyang also wants people to go, but we can't go, you can let the clansmen come forward on behalf of my line." ”

Pei Xuanji was puzzled: "What does father mean?" ”

Pei Ju said: "Pei Su, who is serving on Li Mi's side, is your younger brother, and the prince of the Great Sui, he is more suitable than anyone else to go to Luoyang to explore the way, it is normal for your brothers to interact with each other, I don't expect the saint to care about these, even if it is perceived, because of the merit of offering food and civilian grievances, we can escape the catastrophe." ”

"Son, I'm going to arrange for manpower."

"Be sure to find someone you can trust."

"Whoa." Pei Xuanji saluted and hurried away.

Pei Ju didn't know why his son was so stupid, and he couldn't even see this. Shaking his head, seeing that no fish had been baited, he continued to look through the incomplete cover of the Taoist technique.
