Chapter 159: A Generation of Emperors - Yang Guang
"Fuck off! I want to see Your Majesty, and then dare to stop the general, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword! Lai Hu'er hurriedly rushed to Yang Guang's palace and scolded angrily at the eunuch who blocked the way.
"The general is angry, it's not that the minions won't let you in, it's that Your Majesty is resting and can't be disturbed, and I hope the general can understand the minions' painstaking efforts." This eunuch was in awe of Laihu'er, if others dared to trespass into the palace, they would have been arrested by the guards a long time ago, but because Laihu'er not only held military power, but also was deeply valued by Yang Guang, so they didn't dare to make a mistake with Laihu'er, and because of their sensitive identity, Laihu'er usually wouldn't come to the palace without being summoned by Yang Guang.
"Hurry up and go in and send a message to Ben General, just say that Ben will ask to see, please Your Majesty must see you, if you don't reply for a quarter of an hour, Ben will take the dog's head!" Lai Hu'er was already very unhappy to see the eunuch, especially now that he was stopped, it was even more unpleasant.
"Yes, yes! Please calm the general's anger, and the minions will go! Seeing that Laihu'er had the urge to kill, several eunuchs hurriedly begged for mercy, saving their lives and disturbing Yang Guang was not happy, but if they didn't follow Laihu'er's instructions, maybe they would be in a different place immediately, although they usually looked beautiful, and even some ministers were respectful to them, once they met some powerful people, they couldn't even count as a fart.
Of course, Yang Guang will definitely not be resting now, this day is just right, it is a good time for Sheng to sing and dance, and he is having a lot of fun.
"Your Majesty! Come and ask for a meeting with General Go'er outside! A eunuch walked over tremblingly, desperately trying to spread the news to Yang Guang angrily.
"Didn't you say you couldn't bother me no matter what happened?! How? Are you too long? Well! Being disturbed, Yang Guang was very unhappy, these eunuchs dared not take his words seriously, and ate leopard gall!
"The minions are terrified! Just because the general is angry, if the minions do not report to His Majesty, the general will want the heads of the minions. The eunuch's face was terrified, and he convinced the emperor that it was an honor, but if he was not good, he would easily lose his life.
"Oh~, is the general here?" As soon as he heard that it was Laihu'er who insisted on seeing him, Yang Guang suddenly sobered up, Laihu'er was his right-hand man, and he was also one of the most loyal generals to him, and Laihu'er was a person who knew how to measure, since he was so anxious that he came to break into the palace, it seemed that there was really something urgent to report.
"Smack!"
"Let's all go down!" Yang Guang clapped his palms and asked those dancing girls and the like to step back and prepare to meet Laihu'er.
"Order, let the general come in and see me!" After all those dancing girls and palace maids retreated, Yang Guang asked the eunuch to go and pass the order.
"Your Majesty! The ministers deserve death, disturbing Your Majesty's rest, please forgive Your Majesty! As soon as Lai Hu'er entered the hall, he didn't do anything, he immediately knelt down on one knee, and kept saying that he was guilty, it was obvious that he had already figured out Yang Guang's character and knew what to do.
"Aiqing is flat! I just took a nap, and I heard that Aiqing was in a hurry to find me! I don't know what it is? "For such a sensible courtier, Yang Guang will not punish him.
"Minister~!" Laihu'er wanted to say, but when he glanced around, he hesitated.
"You're all out of here!" Yang Guang knew the scruples of coming to protect the children, so he ordered the eunuchs and guards who were waiting on the side to withdraw.
"Your Majesty doesn't know, Your Majesty hasn't been in the court for a few months, and the inside and outside of this court have been made into a miasma by the Yuwen family, looking at the momentum of the Yuwen family, they want to usurp the throne, Your Majesty!" Laihu'er looked distressed.
"Oh~, Aiqing is too worried, Yuwen Aiqing is just appointed by me to take care of the government, how can there be the kind of ambition that Aiqing said? I guess I can take care of some mess, and then I will preach a thing or two! "Yang Guang has no heart to deal with the government now, and finally found a Yu Wenhua and such a suitable person to come forward, these ministers began to be dissatisfied, saying that others are ambitious, but which of you has no ambition? Yu Culture and even if he is in power, what about it? It's not a matter of my words.
"Your Majesty, what the minister said is true, and most of the military power in the hands of the minister has also been seized by Yu Wenhua and the excuse, and now Yu Wenhua and military and political power are concentrated in one, and now Jiang Du is completely in his hands, and the minister is only afraid that he will be unfavorable to His Majesty." Lai Hu'er didn't expect Yu Wenhua and his position in Yang Guang's heart to be so strong, but he still had to give it a try.
"Oh~, that day Yuwen Aiqing told me that there were several untouchable riots near Jiangdu, so I gave him the military power to deal with it, and after he suppressed those rebellions, he would naturally return the military power to Aiqing." To say that Yang Guang's palace can enter and exit more freely, except for Yu Wenhua and really no one else, so he can ask Yang Guang for military power.
"Your Majesty! Minister~"
"Needless to say, if Aiqing doesn't have anything to do, let's retreat, I'm tired!" Yang Guang seemed to be entangled in the nursery, a little displeased, and immediately issued an eviction order!
"Yes! Retire! "Lai Hu'er knows that he has no good fruit to eat if he goes on, although he is not afraid of death, but he can't die so worthless, isn't his Yuwen family going to rebel, although the nearly 200,000 army in his hands has been stripped of only 40,000 or 50,000, but it should be enough to protect His Majesty and escape in times of crisis.
"Humph! Is it really that I am a faint king? Is it true that in your eyes I have always been a tyrannical and disturbing people? How can you see my eloquence! What kind of thing is he Yang Yong, but he came to this world a few days earlier than me, and he is comparable to me from the bottom to the big?! ”
"In terms of resourcefulness, he is not as good as me; In terms of martial arts, even if it is Yang Yong, he can't compare to a me! Most of the Sui Dynasty was beaten down by me, why did I let him be the master of this country? Why?! Pingnan Chen, Dingjiangnan, according to the Turks, retreat to Goguryeo, descend to Guhun, who else in this world can compare with me?! How did I become a tyrant and a faint monarch when I succeeded to the throne? ”
"You block me everywhere when I build a palace, and you say that building a canal is a waste of money and labor, if it weren't for this canal, you would have starved to death, and one by one you brazenly said that I am a tyrant?! What's wrong with playing a little Goguryeo? Can't you teach a lesson if you don't obey? If it weren't for the passivity and slackness of all of you, would there have been such a big defeat? If it weren't for ill-intentioned people like Yang Xuangan and Li Yuan, would I have been defeated?! All the sins are attributed to me alone, do you think I don't know what you think? A imperial examination system has scared all of you, and I can't curse me to die early! Haha, but I won't let you get your wish, you really want to live well, and I want to see with my own eyes that the plans of you traitors who only care about the interests of the family and don't care about the survival of the country are shattered one by one, haha! ”
"Let's make trouble, let's make trouble! I'm just going to watch you clowns perform here! Saying that, Yang Guang picked up a glass of wine and drank it all, his expression had entered a state of madness! The faint monarch and the bright monarch are just one word difference, and they are defined by their own history, and they are not just said by one or two people, and they are not as simple as becoming a king or defeating a king! Needless to say, Yang Guang's merits are self-explanatory, but he turned from virtuous to tyrannical, is this responsibility only for him? Is it really all Yang Guang's fault at the end of the Sui Dynasty?
