It was almost noon, the wine shops in Daxingdong City were busy, the aroma of wine and meat was bursting, and the sound of the chef's knife and spoon and the shouting of the guys were all in one place. A restaurant called "'Hero Building' No. 757" was noisy, and more than a dozen men of various disabilities were sweating back and forth, and business was extremely prosperous.

This is Yang Tong opened a shop, when he was in Jizhou, he was worried that the disabled soldiers would run out of pensions, and life could not be continued, so he opened the "Hero Building" in the best part of Jizhou counties, and handed it over to the disabled soldiers to take care of.

As a city second only to Luoyang, Daxing City has opened thirty-six, and in an elegant room on the fourth floor of this hero building, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Wei Chigong, Xue Wanjun, and Cheng Yanjin, who were ordered to return to the 'court', were having a dinner.

"Xiao Luo, the Holy Lord summoned everyone to Daxing this time, is he planning to annihilate the pseudo-Tang Dynasty and unify the world?" Wei Chigong asked.

Luo Shixin, who was in the dust, rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "I haven't even returned home, and I was robbed here by you halfway, how do I know if I can beat the fake Tang or not?" ”

These generals have their own mansions in Daxing, and because Yang Tong is celebrating the New Year in Daxing this year, everyone simply moved their families here in order to reunite for a few days during the holiday.

"I'm a little weird. The right servant shot He Shixin, Wan Jun, General Du, and General Xie had obviously destroyed Li Xiaogong's main force, and they could take advantage of the situation to annihilate the precarious pseudo-Tang in one fell swoop. But the Holy One doesn't, why is that? Qin Qiong looked at Luo Shixin and asked, "You shot all the way with the right servant, did the right servant shoot mention it to you?" ”

"Why do you just ask me one by one?" Luo Shixin smiled bitterly: "I really, really don't know, the saint didn't say it, and the right servant didn't say it." Besides, just like the pseudo-Tang, it's the same when you fight. ”

"I agree with Xiao Luo's words, a half-dead pseudo-Tang is just a fart, a fart can blow it up, you guys are in a hurry!" Cheng Yanjin said with a big grin, speaking of which, he is the most depressed person, when the flooding of Xiangyang Gucheng County that day, he obviously caught Li Shimin and Yin Kaishan who fled in embarrassment, but he was let go? Hindsight? The bowels are all repentant.

Qin Qiong glared at him: "What you said is not right, how can Yizhou be said to be the territory of the Great Sui?" The people of Yizhou are also the people of the Great Sui? Thinking that they are still being ravaged by the pseudo-Tang, I feel heavy in my heart. ”

Xue Wanjun smiled: "I think it's going to be soon." ”

"How so?" Qin Qiong was a little puzzled.

"It's October? There are still about two months before the year-end court, but the Holy Lord summoned us generals from various battlefields early? I think this is a precursor to the annihilation of the pseudo-Don. ”

"Makes sense." Luo Shixin agreed: "Me and Wan Jun are just that? Because we have completed our combat mission, it is normal for us to come to Daxing. But Brother Qin, you are different, because Jiaozhou has not yet been settled, and you, the deputy marshal, and Fang Shangshu, the military division, have returned? What does this mean? It shows that the Holy Lord is very likely to make you the commander of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"That's what I thought too." Yu Chigong glanced at Qin Qiong? Hehe said with a smile: "If the Holy Lord lets you destroy the Tang Dynasty, it will be regarded as the merit of destroying the country, and you will definitely not be able to run away from the name in history." Aren't you particularly excited to tell me the truth? ”

"How so?" Qin Qiong said righteously: "The Holy One treats me like a mountain, if it weren't for the Holy Cultivation? How can I, Qin Qiong, achieve today, and I can't wait to stay by the saint's side for the rest of my life? Listen to the teachings. ”

"I'll go!"

Everyone shuddered and looked at Qin Qiong with a frightened expression.

Luo Shixin's cheeks twitched a few times? For his brother-in-law's expression, he was also quite helpless.

Yang Tong doesn't pay attention to Qin Qiong? Not only did he ascend to the position of 'Thirty-six Tiangang of Sacred Martial Arts' and the position of the protector of the country? He was also appointed as a squire in the military department? This is a precursor to entering the phase. Although Qin Qiong has always said that she doesn't want to be an official in the court, she just wants to be a general, but it doesn't mean that Qin Qiong doesn't want to be a minister in the court one day. If Qin Qiong was in charge of the battle of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, then his military career would have ended in a very perfect battle, if Qin Qiong was unwilling, who would believe it?

"Oops! You decrepit people, when you get together, you talk about war, and when you talk about war, you get excited, are you tired? I tell you, it seems that the Holy Lord has a grand plan, which is to unify the Great Sui, and then conquer every inch of land, and then divide us out to be kings! If there is really that day, my old Cheng will learn from Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and build a naked swimming pool, hehe, twelve hours a day, and each hour will change twelve people in the world. Cheng Biting Jin had a silver expression on his face.

"Nonsense!" Qin Qiong said angrily.

"Lao Qin, don't keep a straight face, okay? It's weird and scary, but let me tell you, I really didn't talk nonsense this time, once I was in the military aircraft room of Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, and I heard the saint say this to Zuo Servant...... Why do you beat people at every turn, is it amazing that your martial arts are good? Oops, oops... Don't fight, don't fight, old black, help......"

"Lao Cheng, it's not that I don't save you, it's that you really owe it to clean up, especially your stinky mouth is particularly hateful." Looking at Cheng Biting Jin, who was violently beaten by Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong shook his head and said very helplessly: "You actually told your lady that the saint wanted to marry the head of Jiang and Princess Lujiang as concubines, and then your lady told my lady, and my lady told me again, and I told you now, you will definitely go back and tell your lady again." In the end, if everyone knows about it, it's up to you how you end up. ”

"Am I talking nonsense, me? That's how it is. ”

Cheng Yanjin suddenly became anxious, and while parrying, he also defended loudly, "I used to say that General Yin would become an imperial concubine sooner or later, but he really became a concubine." Manager Jiang's seductive demeanor made my old Cheng heart melt, and sooner or later she would follow in the footsteps of Concubine De and become a saint on the plate of Chinese food...... As for Princess Lujiang, she was originally good, but now everyone knows that she is the descendant of General Yu Zeqing, and everyone can see that this is a royal arrangement to prepare for the next step. Once in the camp of Beibi Mountain, I found that the saint was staring at Princess Lujiang's ass, didn't you pay attention? According to my old Cheng, the saint is good at everything, but he is timid on the issue of women. ”

"Cheng Cannon, shut your stinky mouth for Lao Tzu!" When Cheng Yanjin parried and talked loudly, Yang Tong's angry voice suddenly came from next door.

In an instant, all five of them froze their movements, and there was a dead silence in the private room.

The five generals were all stunned, and they all looked at each other: Why is the Holy Lord next door?

It's just that after Yang Tong drank angrily, there was no sound over there.

Soon, Li Jing's daughter Li Youwei pushed the door in, her beautiful face was red with a smile, and she said to the five strange-shaped generals: "The Holy Lord, please come over." ”

Luo Shixin pointed to the wall and asked, "Why is the Holy One next door?" When did it come? ”

"The Holy One has already arrived, and it is you who are looking for death by yourselves, and you happen to sit here."

"General Li, who else is there?" Qin Qiong asked.

"The crown prince, the princes, and the princesses are all here." Li Youwei gloated and glanced at Cheng Biting Jin, who was almost frightened, "There are also Concubine De, Princess Lujiang, and Manager Jiang......"

"Poof......" Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Wei Chigong, and Xue Wan all burst out laughing and walked quickly to the next room.

Luo Shixin smiled at Cheng Yanjin and said, "They all say that your stinky mouth is hateful, or not." You're dead this time! ”

How can Cheng Biting Jin still have the high spirit when he talks about it? At this moment, his face was so pale that he could barely walk, and he stood there staggering. He knew he was in a big accident this time.

If it was just Yang Tong alone, at most he would be punished and it would have passed. The key is that the concubine and Princess Lujiang who he said are there, and what's even worse is that Jiang Fengyi, the girl, also heard that she was YY her.

Cheng Biting Jin, who came back to his senses, his first thought was to escape, but where could he escape?

I had no choice but to walk out of the room.

"Alas!" Cheng Chumo on the passage looked at this unreliable father, shook his head helplessly and sighed.

"I'll clean you up when I get home." Cheng Biting Jin kicked his son hard, and suddenly had the courage to face reality.

When he walked into the room, Cheng Yanjin didn't recognize Yang Tong at once, and a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his heart, but when he saw the dragon son and dragon girl without disguise, as well as Jiang Fengyi and Yang Qinfang with fire-breathing eyes, he immediately fell into despair again and gave up his luck.

"What do you say?" Yang Tong stared at Cheng Yanjin with a flash.

"The last general deserves death, please punish the saint severely." Cheng Biting Jin's legs weakened, he fell to his knees, he slapped himself a few times, and the black face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Do you know Wang Shichong?"

"Yes, yes! Of course I do. "Wang Shichong has only died not long ago, who doesn't know? It's just that Yang Tong's question made Cheng Yanjin a little confused.

"Wang Shichong is well versed in all kinds of laws and regulations, and often takes advantage of the loopholes in the laws to cheat for personal gain and do whatever he wants, and people know that he is wrong, but because the law is vacant, there is no way to punish him." Yang Tong looked at him coldly and continued, "I thought about it carefully, but just like the imperial history that couldn't cure Wang Shichong's crimes, I couldn't find the laws and regulations, military laws and regulations that could cure your crimes. In other words, you haven't violated any of the regulations, how dare I punish a meritorious general for no reason? ”

"Holy, there will be a sin in the end, a great sin of disrespect, and I am willing to accept all the heavy punishment." Cheng Biting Jin kowtowed three times in a row, begging bitterly.

Cheng Yanjin was already frightened and frightened at this time, just because Yang Tong had already compared him with Wang Shichong, a big thief, and he now wished that Yang Dong would be severely punished to end this incident, otherwise the small crime would sooner or later become a felony of extermination.

Although Qin Qiong was angry, he still pleaded with him: "Shengshang, although Cheng Biting Jin has no mouth, he has no malice, he is just a man of many tongues by nature, please read it for the sake of his great achievements, spare him this time!" ”

"Yes, Holiness." Luo Shixin said: "Cheng Yanjin is loyal to the saint and the Great Sui, and has no two hearts. Only this mouth is hateful, as long as three cups of yellow soup are in the stomach, I can't control it. ”

Wei Chigong and Xue Wanjun also pleaded one after another.

"I can't cure you, you decide!" Yang Tong was really annoyed this time, this bastard was actually drunk and crazy in public, lest the world would say that he was staring at Yang Qinfang's ass with squinting eyes, not only Yang Qinfang heard it, but even his children heard it, which made him really unbearable. However, Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin are right, Cheng Bites Jin is good for everything else, but this stinky mouth is hateful, and today he has to have a long memory.

"The last will cut off three fingers as a punishment!" Cheng Biting Jin gritted his teeth, pulled out a dagger, and slashed at the finger of his left hand, Qin Qiong next to him was quick, grabbed Cheng Biting Jin's arm, and was furious: "Cut off your finger, you will be wasted." ”

"If you don't make a mistake with your fingers, why chop your hands! Why don't you cut out the hateful tongue? Yang Tong said coldly.

Cheng Biting Jin was terrified, abandoned the dagger, and sobbed: "The last general is at a loss, please show the way to the saint." ”

Yang Tong saw that this hob meat was actually in tears, and knew that he was already afraid to the extreme, and when he saw that it was almost over, he said slowly: "I will not punish you this time." Get up. ”

"Thank you." Cheng Yanjin breathed a sigh of relief, got up from the ground, and waited for punishment.

"Since everyone says that you can't control the smell of your mouth when you drink, then I will punish you not to drink a drop of wine within a year, drink it once, and copy the "Historical Records" a hundred times. In addition, you are not allowed to say a word for three months, not in public, not at home. If you say a word, copy the "Historical Records" a hundred times. Yang Tong said lightly.

"Holy Lord's method is too clever." Luo Shixin is really convinced, Cheng Bites has a lot of problems, but the biggest feature is good wine and love to talk, Yang Tong now bans him from drinking and speaking, and also uses his least favorite copy of books as a punishment, which is ten thousand times more clever than deducting Yulu.

"That's a good idea." Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, and Xue Wanjun also laughed.

Cheng Biting Jin had a bitter face, he didn't say a word for half a day, he could bear it without drinking for a year, and he would be dumb for three months regardless of the occasion, isn't this the life of others?

However, it is better than the heavy punishment recorded in the account, he bowed his head dejectedly, "Xie Sheng is lightly punished, and the last general will know that he is wrong." ”

"Your punishment starts now."

"Whoa." Cheng bit Jin and saluted.

"Holy One, he spoke." Jiang Fengyi glared at Cheng Biting Jin, although you said that the old lady was in good shape and made the old lady very happy, but you can't eat the old lady's tofu, how can you do it if you don't let you be punished?

"I didn't, you're talking nonsense." Cheng Biting Jin said loudly.

Jiang Fengyi said bewildermently: "You said it, I heard it." ”

Cheng Yanjin shook his head and said, "I didn't say it." ”

"That's what you said." Yang Qinfang was originally very grateful to Cheng for biting Jin, but this bastard actually said that Yang Tong stared at her ass, which really embarrassed her.

"I didn't say ......"

"I heard that, too." The surface of the cloudy moon was cold

Cheng Yanjin was anxious: "Holy Lord, you have to make decisions for the last general, the last general really didn't speak." ”

"Lao Cheng, how many times do you want to copy the "Historical Records"?" Luo Shixin shook his head, anxious for Cheng Biting Jin's IQ.

"I don't want to copy ...... again" Cheng Biting Jin, who realized it later, wanted to cry without tears, with a loveless expression on his face, and shouted "fooled" in his heart.

Yang Lu, who was sitting on Yang Tong's side, was eating a kelp, and when he heard Cheng Yanjin's words, he said with a smile: "From the moment my father said, 'Your punishment will start from now', you said, 'Oh', 'I don't, you talk nonsense', 'I don't', 'Holy Lord, you have to make decisions for the last general!'" The last general really didn't speak, "I don't want to copy it again." ”

"Xiaolu, General Cheng's word '喏' is in response to his father's words, this can barely be counted!" Prince Yang Zheng is very objective.

"Zheng'er has a point." Yang Tong nodded and asked Yang Lu, "Xiaolu, get rid of that 'swoop'." How many times did Cheng Cannon speak? ”

Yang Lu put down his chopsticks, stretched out his little hand, and counted clearly, "I said it four times in total." ”

"The fawn is right!" Yang Tong said to Cheng Yanjin: "The "Historical Records" only has more than 500,000 words, and it adds up to more than 2 million. You are given ten days, and you must hand it in word for word. ”

"......" Cheng Yanjin opened his mouth: I, or not?

To be on the safe side.

He finally chose to nod vigorously.

"Since we've met, let's go together." Yang Tong saw that the table here was big and there were still a few vacant seats, so he said to Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Wei Chigong, and Xue Wanjun.

"Thank you." The four generals found a seat and sat down, and Cheng Yanjin stood aside, not daring to sit down.

Yang Tong didn't pay attention to him, and said to the four generals: "What Cheng Cannon said just now, except for the nonsense, it's not all nonsense. As far as the matter of dividing the feudal country is concerned, I have indeed considered it, but it is definitely not in the territory of the Great Sui, but in a distant foreign land, but I have not yet considered it mature, so I have not said it. ”

Qin Qiong's face changed greatly, and he got up and saluted: "There is an order from the saint, and the last general will go to the soup to fight the fire, but the land obtained is the land of the Great Sui, and he has no ambition to build a country. ”

Luo Shixin also said: "Dividing the seal is the beginning of trouble, please take back the mandate of the saint." ”

"It's something to think about later, and it's still very early."

"It's better not to think about it." Xue Wanjun has a profound family, and he knows that the feudal system is good at first, and because the feudal kings in various places are the emperor's sons or brothers, or after they are heroes, they will naturally have the effect of suppressing the royal family and eliminating turmoil. However, with the death of the founding emperor, the throne will inevitably induce some ambitious vassal kings to raise troops to rebel, or plot rebellion, no matter which one of them will form a serious hidden danger to the empire, isn't this how the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms" and "The Rebellion of the Eight Kings" came about?

"......" Yang Tong glared dryly when he heard this. No one knows better than him the huge energy contained in this nation, but the mind has always been bound to this land, and when it comes to the outside world, it has always adopted a passive defensive posture, so that the huge energy is imprisoned and the mind is shackled...... If you blindly keep this one-third of an acre of land, the final result will still be to be bullied in every way.

Yang Tong hopes that the Great Sui will be strong, but he knows that the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, so he hopes that the nation living in the Central Plains and being confined to the Central Plains can continue in a wolf way.

Through continuous expansion, the martial style of the nation will always remain young, even if the dynasty is declining, there are also martial spirits that dominate the world and swallow mountains and rivers. If the Great Sui Dynasty was surrounded by clans, feudal states that founded the country and were civil and military kings, even if the descendants of these people one day caused the decaying Great Sui Dynasty to collapse, then it was still the clan that was in charge, not the Central Plains turned into a foreign pasture.
