After Yu Wenshu heard this, he was shocked in his heart, but he immediately understood what Yu Wenming meant.

During the Western Wei Dynasty, the Eight Pillars led by Yuwentai and the twelve generals under their supervision held power in the country. The descendants of the Eight Pillars and the Twelve Generals have produced many talents and married each other, forming a huge family group with intertwined interests - Guanlong Group.

Yang Zhong, one of the twelve generals, was the father of Yang Jian, who later usurped the throne of Emperor Young of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and established the Sui Dynasty.

Li Hu in the Eight Pillars Kingdom is Li Yuan's grandfather; Li Bi is Li Mi's great-grandfather; Dugu Xin is the maternal grandfather of Li Yuan and Yang Guang, and Han Baohu is Li Jing's uncle.

After the death of Yuwentai, the head of the Eight Pillars, his son Yuwenjue usurped the throne of the Western Wei Emperor and established the Northern Zhou Dynasty as Emperor Xiaomin of Zhou.

Although Yuwenshu is not a direct descendant of Yuwentai, he can also be regarded as a side branch of the Yuwen family. After Yang Jian usurped Zhou and established the Sui Dynasty, because Yuwenshu was only a member of the Yuwen valve, not a descendant of the Northern Zhou royal family, he expressed his allegiance to Yang Jian. So he escaped in Yang Jian's purge of the Northern Zhou royal family.

Later, after the establishment of the Great Sui, Yuwenshu repeatedly made military exploits, and made suggestions in the political struggle for Yang Guang to replace the former crown prince Yang Yong, and had the merit of supporting the establishment, so his status also rose. In the end, he became the main vein of the Yuwen clan and became the head of the Yuwen valve.

Therefore, whether it is in the Western Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty, or the current Sui Dynasty, the Guanlong Group can be regarded as a talented person and controls real power. More than seventy percent of the officials in the central court are from the Guanlong group. With the destruction of the Northern Qi by the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the destruction of Chen by the Sui Dynasty, the power of the Guanlong Group expanded to all parts of the country, becoming the largest interest group in the world.

And this has become a heart disease of the Great Sui Emperor Yang Guang.

Although Yang Guang is also a member of the Guanlong Group, after he became the emperor, he was unwilling to be subject to the Guanlong Group. I want to take power completely into my own hands.

In modern terms, Yang Guang wants to be a real, powerful, and indisputable president of a company, rather than serving as chairman of a bunch of directors in Guanlong Group. After all, the chairman's position is not very stable, and if the other directors join forces, they will definitely have the strength to oust the original chairman and replace the new chairman with a new chairman.

After all, his father Yang Jian did this and ousted the Northern Zhou Emperor from power. Therefore, he was also afraid that the other gate valves of the Guanlong Group would use this trick on him.

Therefore, Yang Guang first moved the national capital of the Great Sui from Chang'an, the old nest of the Guanlong Group, to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and supported Pei Valve of the Shandong Shi clan to contain the Guanlong Group. Among the six Shangshu of the three provinces of the imperial court, there are two people from Pei Valve, Pei Ju and Pei Yun. This is something that has never happened since the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, and one family has produced two Shangshu.

"The trend of the Holy Lord supporting the Shandong Shi clan to suppress the Guanlong Group has been very obvious. And the implementation of this imperial examination and the selection of officials from the poor and commoners is to get rid of the monopoly of the Guan Long family on the court officials......"

Yu Wenming said eloquently: "Grandpa, although the Holy Lord does appreciate you very much now. But his determination to suppress the Guanlongmen valve has already been made, even if you oppose it, I am afraid that you will not be able to persuade him, but will incur his distrust of you. Moreover, I think that the other major valves of the Guanlong Group, such as Li Valve, Dugu Valve, Yuan Valve, etc., may not be of the same mind as us, and they will jointly write against it. In this case, our family might as well push the boat with the current and express its support for the imperial examination system. In this way, the Holy One will be very happy and will still trust his grandfather, father, and uncle! ”

Speaking of this, Yu Wenming lowered his voice and said, "Moreover, the Holy Lord may not want to completely eliminate the Guanlong Group, he just doesn't want to be controlled by the Guanlong Group. Within the Guanlong Group, he will definitely suppress a group and win over a group! If our Yuwen family has a choice, we must strive to be the group of families that are co-opted by the saint! ”

When Yu Wenshu heard this, he was even more stunned. Because these inferences may sound a bit shocking. But according to his old calculations, he naturally knew that it was indeed very likely to happen.

If Yu Wenming was a veteran of officialdom who had been an official in the imperial court for many years, such as Su Wei and Yu Shiji, he would not be surprised if he could see these situations.

But his grandson is only twelve years old, and he has been staying at home and reading poetry and books, where did he get such knowledge?

Yu Wenming saw Yu Wenshu's surprised expression, so he secretly said that it was not good, he had behaved too much, and he was far beyond the insight that he should have at his age and his experience.

"Grandpa, these inferences are not entirely thought up by my grandson, and it was also during the poetry competition that I met the guidance of a master. It's just that the grandson has promised this person not to reveal his name and appearance...... So, please forgive my grandson for not being able to tell grandpa about this person. Yu Wenming rolled his eyes and hurriedly added.

This opinion was expressed by him on the basis of the historical facts and classics of later generations, and with his ability, he naturally could not summarize it.

Yu Wenshu suddenly realized at this time, and bowed his head slightly. He also felt that this was the only way to make sense. Otherwise, with Yu Wenming's age and experience, it is really too demonic.

He even thought that the person who told Yu Wenming about these things was most likely from the Holy Providence.

"According to the current situation, nine times out of ten, the Holy Lord wants to tell me these things under the guise of Ming'er, so that I can make a choice, whether to support him, or to be in a league with other Guanlongmen valves." Yuwen Shu was originally a scheming person, and at this moment, he thought through all this.

Looking at the stable grandson who was sitting opposite him, although his face was immature, but showing a steady face that did not match his age, Yuwenshu suddenly had a feeling in his heart that the future of the Yuwen family was about to fall on him.

"Fauber!" Yu Wenshu suddenly raised his voice.

"The old slave is here!" The old butler Fu Bo, who had been waiting outside the study, immediately walked into the study, and after a bow, he stood with his hands in his hands.

"You inform the horse steward, from next month onwards, Yu Wenming's monthly routine money will be distributed according to the highest level of forty yuan among the concubines, if anyone asks, it will be said that this is a reward for his outstanding performance in the poetry competition and earning face for the family!" Yu Wenshu said in a deep voice.

"The old slave is going to inform the horse steward!" After Fu Bo answered, he was about to turn around, but was stopped by Yu Wenshu again.

"Wait! Fuber, I went to see the small courtyard in the West Wing once two days ago, and it really felt too bad! Where is the place where my grandson and daughter-in-law live? I think that several stewards in the house live in better places than them! You tell Steward Song to make a better courtyard in the inner courtyard and let Ming'er and his mother live! If he doesn't clean it up tomorrow, I'll remove him from his stewardship!" Change to someone who is quick to do things! Yu Wenshu said sharply.

Fu Bo nodded, saying that he would definitely remind Steward Song, and then he said goodbye and left.

Yu Wenming was also overjoyed when he heard that his money had doubled again within a few days. And he doesn't care if he moves to a new house or not, he is used to living anyway.

At this time, Yuwenshu changed his face and said to him amiably: "Ming'er, I heard Su Wei say that you don't want to worship him as a teacher, you just want to practice martial arts, don't want to learn literature?" ”

"Yes! Since Grandpa has already heard Master Su talk about this, he must have heard him say the reason why I don't want to study literature. Yu Wenming replied.

Yu Wenshu was originally like Su Wei, he felt that Yu Wenming was more developed in literary talent, and he was only fifteen years old to be able to make such magnificent poems, and if he was well cultivated, he would definitely be a famous minister of the Great Sui and the pillar of the Yuwen family in the future.

However, Yu Wenming himself didn't want to learn literature, but wanted to practice martial arts, and he couldn't force it.

So, he sighed and said: "Ming'er, grandpa originally wanted you to learn literature, and together with your eldest brother Chengdu, you will be one scholar and one martial artist, assist the emperor, and become the two pillars of my Yuwen family." But since you insist on learning martial arts, I can't go against your choice! But I hope that while you are practicing martial arts, you will not give up learning literature! After all, with your literary foundation, you will definitely be able to achieve both civil and military skills! ”

Yu Wenming was also very moved in his heart, and hurriedly knelt down and thanked him: "Thank you, grandpa!" I also asked my grandfather to teach my grandson martial arts! ”

He knew very well that his grandfather was also a famous general of the Great Sui.

"Huh! Although grandpa's martial arts are also okay, he is not good at teaching his disciples. Yuwen Shu shook his head with a smile, and then continued: "Although your eldest brother Yuwen Chengdu's master Yu Juluo is a good master, he is taking a strong route. His exercises are suitable for your eldest brother, but not for you...... Grandpa will help you with a famous teacher in two days! ”

Yu Wenshu's eyes flashed at this time, obviously he already had a suitable candidate in his heart. And at this moment, he also recognized that his grandson would definitely be the hope of Yuwen in the future.

After the grandfather and grandson talked freely again, Yu Wenming said goodbye and left.

As soon as he returned to his original residence, his mother Xiao Wanjun greeted him happily, and then asked in surprise and joy: "Ming'er, did you really win the championship in the poetry competition?" And was appreciated by Lord Suvasu and Princess Loki? ”

Yu Wenming knew that his performance in the poetry competition had been passed on to ten, ten to hundred.

He had to nod and say, "Mother! It was also a coincidence that a few poems that I had carefully prepared came in handy, and a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and the proposed imperial examination plan also happened to be in line with the princess and the saint's wishes......"

Yu Wenming then told Xiao Wanjun a story about how he bumped into his luck.

Xiao Wanjun didn't suspect that her son was lying to herself at all, for her, seeing her son have the hope of getting ahead is more surprising than anything else. And his mother and son have officially become members of the Yuwen family, and their lives have greatly improved compared to before. She couldn't express her joy in her heart, and said softly: "Ming'er, you have really worked too hard these days, and my mother will make porridge for you to drink immediately!" Your illness is curing, and you need to rest more......"

After dinner, Yu Wenming quickly went to bed. That night, he slept soundly, for he had seen hope for a change in his current situation......

Early the next morning, after Yu Wenming got up and had just put on his clothes, the Song steward in the house hurriedly ran over. After saluting him, he hurriedly said, "Little master, master, please go to the hall quickly!" The young lady of the Li family came over and said that she wanted to introduce you to the master......"

Yu Wenming's pupils suddenly dilated, he didn't expect Li Xiuning to understand the "famous general" so quickly, and since Yu Wenshu was also present, presumably his grandfather also agreed with this.

"Good! Steward Song, please go back and report to Grandpa and Miss Li, I'll come over after I finish washing! Yu Wenming replied hurriedly.
