In the imperial study room of Jiangdu Palace, Yang Guang sat behind the imperial case, closed his eyes intently, and quietly thought about the arrangements of the chief general of the Xiaoguo army.

In front of his imperial case, there was a plain note, on which several names had been written, this was the future commander of the Xiaoguo Army that he had already thought of.

The first thing written is Yu Wenhua, after all, Yu Wenshu has been in charge of the Xiaoguo Army for many years, and he has worked hard, and it is impossible for Yang Guang to take the Yuwen family to the end.

The second is the general Dugu Kaiyuan, he is the nephew of Yang Guang's mother Queen Dugu, and he is also Yang Guang's cousin, although his ability is average, but he is loyal to Yang Guang.

The third and fourth places are the fifth son of Zuo Xuwei General Laihu'er and the sixth son Laijun, Yuwen Zhiji's words made Yang Guang realize that Yuwenshu has been in charge of the Xiaoguo Army for too long and has a lot of influence in the army, so Yang Guang plans to use the same famous Laihu'er to eliminate Yuwenshu's influence in the army.

However, when he came to Hu'er to conquer Goryeo in the past, he was disrespectful, and after so many years, Yang Guang's suspicion of him has only increased, and after hesitation, Yang Guang took a compromise method and promoted his two sons who also had great achievements in the war to share the culture and power of the Xiaoguo army.

The fifth is Mai Mengcai, the son of Mai Tiecane, the prince of Suguo, who died in the battle in Goryeo, and the sixth is Shi Huaiyi, the son of Shi Wansui, the first fierce general of the former Great Sui, who used their purpose to use the same as Laihong Lai, hoping that they could use their father's prestige to weaken Yuwenshu's power in the Xiaoguo army.

"Your Majesty, Lord Yu is here, wait outside!" When Yang Guangzheng closed his eyes and pondered, a eunuch at the door cautiously reported.

Yang Guang opened his eyes, rubbed his temples, and said slowly: "Announce him in!" ”

"Shun Ming has four eyes, and he has four congs, so the communist, cang, and pocket can't be hidden. Qin II favored Zhao Gao and became a disaster; Emperor Wu of Liang believed in Zhu Yi in order to take the humiliation of Taicheng; Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty favored Yu Shiji, which led to the change of Pengcheng Pavilion. If the old man is both listened to and accepted, then the nobles and ministers must not be embraced, and the lower feelings can be understood. ”

Wei Zheng's words can be regarded as wronging Yu Shiji to a certain extent, and Yu Shiji's real crime is not slander, but should be the rudder of the wind. Because Yang Guang is an extremely radical and egoistic person, once his own ideas and decrees are opposed by his courtiers, he will be very dissatisfied with this courtier. And Yu Shiji has figured out Yang Guang's character, so even if Yang Guang issues an edict, he will support it unconditionally, and he will never touch Yang Guang's mold.

It's just that Yang Guang is the emperor after all, and the ancients' idea of monarchy is extremely serious, so people in the world don't dare to blame Yang Guang too much, so they put the blame on Yu Shiji.

As for Yu Shiji's crime of being a traitor, it is mainly because he used his power to make a lot of money, just take this recommendation of the ten generals of Xiaoguo, Yang Guang himself has already decided on several people, but his original intention was to determine the ten generals, at this time he will consult Yu Shiji's opinion, and Yu Shiji will take the opportunity to say a few good words for those who send money, and get a good official position for them!

。。。。。。。。。。

Yu Shiji entered the imperial study under the guidance of a eunuch, Yu Shiji stepped forward and gave a deep salute, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”

Yang Guang nodded, waved his big hand and said, "No rudeness!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yang Guang looked at Yu Shiji, smiled and said, "Yu Aiqing came just in time, I just want to talk to you about the Xiaoguo Army!" ”

Yu Shiji came here for this matter, and immediately asked tentatively: "I don't know who Your Majesty wants to be the commander of the Xiaoguo Army?" ”

Yang Guang pondered for a while and said: "I am considering Yu Wenhua, Laihong, Laicheng, Shi Huaiyi, Mai Mengcai, and Dugu Kaiyuan as the commanders of the Xiaoguo Army, but I plan to appoint a few more people, I don't know if Yu Aiqing do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?" ”

Although Yang Guang's words seem to have a lot of room for maneuver, it is just Yang Guang's pretense of being polite, and what consideration is just Yang Guang's desire to be a little more euphemistic. If Yu Shiji really dares to disagree, then I'm afraid his good days will come to an end.

Yu Shiji has served Yang Guang for many years, and knows Yang Guang's temperament well, how can he not understand Yang Guang's meaning, plus he also received a lot of money, taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Pei Qiantong is cautious and has the style of a general, I don't know if he can be qualified for the position of commander of the Xiaoguo Army?" ”

When Yang Guang was still the king of Jin, Pei Qiantong was Yang Guang's confidant and retinue, and he could be regarded as Yang Guang's confidant. Yang Guang pondered for a while and nodded, "But, Yu Aiqing still has others to recommend?" ”

"How about the Tiger Ben General Su Kuang, the Zuo Xiaowei General Xue Li, and the Xiaoguo Army Zhonglang General Fan Wenchao?"

Yang Guang glanced at Yu Shiji suspiciously, "Su Kuang is the grandson of Su Wei, Fan Wenchao is the eldest son of the late general Fan Zigai, there is no problem for these two to serve as the commander of the Xiaoguo Army, but this Xue Li, I also know that he is strong in martial arts, but he was born poor, and there have been a lot of rumors about the nominal Zuo Xiaowei general in the past, and now I am afraid that the soldiers will not accept him when he is being promoted!" ”

Yu Shiji naturally guessed that Yang Guang would ask this question, and he had already prepared a statement, "Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, this Xue Li has something extraordinary, Yuwenshu has led the Xiaoguo Army for many years, and most of the generals in the army are the children of Guan Long, and now the nobles of Guan Long are ready to move, Your Majesty should take precautions, and use Xue Li as a poor disciple!" ”

Yang Guang pondered for a while, and nodded slowly, "What Aiqing said is extremely true!" ”

Yu Shiji took the opportunity to say again: "Your Majesty, according to Weichen's humble opinion, there are about 70,000 people in the Xiaoguo army, so why don't you assign these people to the subordinates of Yu Wenhua, Fan Wenchao, Pei Qiantong, Shi Huaiyi and others, so that Your Majesty can monitor and manage, and Xue Li, Lai Hong, Lai Quan, Mai Mengcai and others will use people from Jiangnan and Central Plains to prevent the infiltration of Guanlong nobles!" ”

Yang Guang nodded thoughtfully, Yu Shiji's words were too much to his liking, Yang Guang has been the emperor for nearly twenty years, and he knows that the Guanlong nobles are terrible, their power permeates all aspects of the Great Sui, and even his most elite troops, the Xiaoguo Army, have nearly half of the officers from Guanlong, so he simply took the opportunity of this dismissal of Yuwenshu to give the Xiaoguo Army a big change, although this may lead to a decline in the combat power of the Xiaoguo Army, but in the long run, this is definitely a good thing!

"What Aiqing said is very true, just do what Aiqing says!"

"Wechen obeys!"

Yu Shiji bowed down to receive the order, a trace of imperceptible cunning flashed in his eyes, what he said just now was not what he came up with, but what his cousin Yu Yunwen taught him yesterday, using Yang Guang's eagerness to deal with the psychology of the Guanlong nobles to take the opportunity to expand the power of the Jiangnan Shi clan, and Yang Gao's mother-in-law Empress Xiao and biological mother Xiao Concubine were both born in the south, compared to Yang Qi, Yang Tong, and Yang Yulai, whose mother was the daughter of the Guanlong nobles, Yang Gao was undoubtedly easier to be recognized by the Jiangnan Shi clan, so this expanded Yang Gao's power in disguise.
