The Qin people then established a city here, and migrated from their remote hometown in the west when they arrived at Qin Degong, and established their first real capital "Yong", and later moved east and moved the capital to Xianyang City.

The person Yang Guang admires the most is Qin Shi Huang, so here, Yang Guang deliberately stayed overnight and paid tribute to Qin Huang.

After leaving Qishan County, Yang Guang's huge convoy continued westward.

As the slope slowly rises, the spacious road gradually becomes a path that can only accommodate two cars in parallel, and the farmland gradually recedes, surrounded by dense deep forests.

The rugged limestone hills are also getting steeper and steeper, and by the third day, they have become mountains, although it is already the beginning of April, but Wang Junlin looked at the foot of the mountain and found that the highest rock peak still shouldered Chen Xue, like a gray and white giant, standing here, separating Chen Cang County and Tianshui County.

An attendant from the Ministry of Rites from Chencang County who accompanied him told Wang Junlin: "Longsaka, its saka nine times, I don't know how high it is, those who want to go up, seven days are the over, and the wind and snow at the highest place on the mountain will only freeze in May, and it is still early." ”

This is the natural danger of juxtaposition with Shu Road, fortunately, the gallop road does not have to go over the mountain, along the mountain stream meanders to the west, although the royal car is cumbersome and huge, there is a way to go.

However, the scenery in front of me is gradually different from that of the Qinling Mountains in Guanzhong, where there are low and vigorous birch forests, as well as vast grasslands, like turquoise waves covering the entire mountain, and occasionally rustically dressed wranglers can be seen driving large groups of vigorous galloping horses.

It was the blood-maned horse that pulled the cart for Wang Junlin, and his footsteps became cheerful, and he kept neighing, if it weren't for Wang Junlin's reprimand, I am afraid that he would have already escaped and gone to the grass to have fun.

……

……

Seven days later, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty appeared in the southernmost part of the land of Tianshui County in Yongzhou, with as many as 50,000 people, stretching for ten miles, and the banners were overwhelming, and the momentum was huge.

The core of the inspection team is the emperor's palace Liuhe giant imperial car, Liuhe imperial car is actually called a huge movable wooden palace city, made by Shaofu Temple Qing He Chou, as the name suggests, hexagonal, with a circumference of 30 meters, the female wall is as high as two zhang from the ground, and the emperor Yang Guang and the empress and other palace female eunuchs live in it.

Eight huge wooden wheels were installed underneath the Liuhe Imperial Chariot, which could not walk on its own, and needed to be pulled by twenty tall horses to move forward slowly and steadily.

Yang Guang was in a good mood, 20 years after the opening of the emperor, he led 150,000 troops as the commander, went out of Jincheng County, defeated the Western Turkic Datou Khan, once passed through Tianshui County, this time he returned to the old land, which reminded him of his bravery.

Yang Guang stood at the front of the royal car and smiled at his wife and children: "I think that I also fought on the border and attacked the Turks in the north, and nearly seven years have passed, but I feel like something happened yesterday." ”

Yang Guang and Empress Xiao have a deep relationship, although he is the emperor, he is still unwilling to accept concubines, his single-mindedness has also won the appreciation of his mother Dugu, in the replacement of Yang Yong as the prince, he also received strong support from his mother Dugu.

At the same time, because of the heavy state affairs, although Yang Guang likes to build palaces and pay attention to pomp, he does not have many concubines. During this western tour, he let the crown prince Yang Zhao stay in the capital, but he took Yang Zhao's eldest son, that is, Yang Guang's eldest grandson, with him.

"Wang Tong is a capable minister, in recent years, Yongzhou's profits and taxes have increased by two percent, Zhangye and Xiping's two new counties have also been taken care of well, and Yujuluo has made great contributions, and there has been no war at the Yongzhou border for several years." Yang Guang stroked his beard and looked at the green farmland wheat seedlings on both sides of the official road, remembered the changes in Yongzhou in recent years, and said with satisfaction. It's just that many people in his entourage trampled on the farmland, but he turned a blind eye, or at least didn't think about how serious the damage to the farmers' harvest farmers would be.

"Your Majesty, look! Is that the fish manager and Wang Tingshi here? ”

A eunuch with a keen eye, saw a cavalry appear in the distance, like a thin and black line, rushing to this side, Yang Guang also saw it, he smiled with a beard, and his attitude was very good, he had just entered the Yongzhou territory, Wang Tong and Yu Juluo appeared with their subordinates, it seems that they have been waiting here.

It didn't take long for a guard to report: "Your Majesty, Yu Juluo, the head of the Yongzhou march, and Wang Tong, the assassin Shi, led his subordinates to lead three thousand cavalry to meet the holy car!" ”

Yu Juluo and Wang Tong had been waiting at the border for a long time, and when Emperor Sui's holy chariot appeared, they immediately came to meet him.

Compared with Yu Juluo's apprehension, Wang Tong was worried about this holy drive

Inspecting Yongzhou was both an expectation and a worry, and he hoped that the Holy Emperor would strengthen the immigration of Xiping County and Zhangye County, which were vast and sparsely populated in Yongzhou, and that the imperial court would provide financial and manpower support.

And the 50,000 troops and thousands of officials and servants of the Holy Driver need food from all over Yongzhou, which is also a huge expense.

Wang Tong sighed in his heart, and led the civil and military officials of Yongzhou to dismount, and walked quickly to the Liuhe carriage to meet the emperor.

"Chenyu Juluo and Wang Tong led the Yongzhou Context Military Officials to see His Majesty the Emperor, I wish His Majesty the Emperor long live, long live, long live!"

Yang Guang was in a good mood, he waved his hand and smiled: "All Aiqing is free of courtesy!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone stood up, and Yang Guang smiled again and said to Yu Juluo and Wang Tong: "Two Aiqing, how do you feel about my Liuhe Imperial Car?" ”

"It can be called a work of genius, the minister believes that this Liuhe imperial car is more suitable for the flat grassland, if the Turks see it, they must think that it is a god descending to earth." Yu Juluo said with a smile.

Yang Guang laughed and said: "One day, I will be like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to deal with the Xiongnu, the Turks will be crippled and exterminated, driven to Mobei, and let the northern grassland become a place for my Great Sui to raise horses. ”

When Yang Guang said these words, his eyes swept over the many generals in front of him and in front of him, Yuwen Shu, Yu Wenhua, Yuwen Chengdu, Mai Tiezhu, Yu Juluo and other generals bowed down together, and said loudly: "The minister is willing to be the guardian of His Majesty, and will destroy the Turks for His Majesty." ”

Yang Guang was very satisfied when he saw that his generals were full, and noticed that Wang Junlin just wanted to bow down with the other generals, but finally stopped, so he turned his head and asked Wang Junlin: "Isn't Wang Aiqing willing to open up territory for me?" ”

Wang Junlin hurriedly bowed down and immediately said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is not a military general now, so he hesitated just now, but as long as His Majesty is willing, the minister will definitely open up territory for His Majesty, and then die." ”

Yang Guang smiled slightly, motioned for Wang Jun to calm down, and said: "I heard that Aiqing studied under a certain master in the Bears Ears Mountain in Maiji Town, Qingshui County, Tianshui County, and I will not go to Tianshui City today, so I choose to camp in this Maiji Town to rest." ”
