The eastern capital is Luoyang. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The high wall iron gate, the city is strong and heavy, the city tower is magnificent and majestic, the momentum is magnificent, the painting wall carving beam is extremely exquisite, but in the attack of the righteous army, there have been sores and gaps, destroying the beauty.

Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty finally arrived in the eastern capital today after more than ten days of tiring travel and travel.

Yang Tong led the left-behind officials out of the city to greet them, Li Hun, Dugu Ji, Yuan Wendu, Dugu Sheng, Duan Da, Li Min, Guo Wenyi, Zhao Changwen, Yu Chu, Su Kui and other officials were in this ranks, there were seventy or eighty people, during this period, these second-line officials assisted King Yue.

It can be said that in Luoyang City, most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, or idle officials who are not reused.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, long live long live long live!" The civil and military ministers all knelt down to worship.

"Grandpa!" Yang Tong was only ten years old, and when he saw Yang Guang returning, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart and couldn't help but shed some tears.

Yang Guang also had some emotion, he almost lost Luoyang, his situation was very dangerous, the throne was difficult to protect, fortunately Luoyang was stable, fixed the strong attack of the rebels, and said: "Yang Tong, you did a good job, saved Luoyang for me, and you have made a lot of contributions, and you have finally grown up." There is no need to cry, my Yang family's country will be forever, and it will never be taken away by these chaotic ministers and thieves. ”

"My grandson is not worried about dying in battle, I am afraid that I will not be able to see Your Majesty again and honor the emperor's grandfather." Yang Tong said sincerely.

"Good emperor!" Yang Guang was a little emotional about his filial piety.

"Grandpa Huang has worked hard all the way, work hard and work hard, please enter the imperial city and rest the dragon body early!" Yang Tong is still just a child, but with the assistance of some old scholars, he knows etiquette quite well.

Yang Guang took the civil and military officials into the Dingding Gate, walked through the spacious Dingding Street, crossed the Tianjin Bridge, and came to the outside of the palace.

At this time, Empress Xiao led the palace concubines, princesses, and palace maids to greet the holy driver outside the palace gate.

"Welcome to Your Majesty's return to the court, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Empress Xiao took the lead in bowing, and many concubines were wiping their tears, obviously frightened for a while.

Yang Guang stepped off the chariot of the Son of Heaven and pulled up Queen Xiao, this time there was no danger, which made Yang Guang feel a lot of emotion, and gritted his teeth at the betrayer.

"I'm back." After Yang Guang finished speaking, he entered the palace with Empress Xiao and instructed the ministers to go to the Daye Hall to wait for the court meeting, and he wanted to go back to the palace to bathe and change his clothes first.

More than half an hour later, Yang Guang listened to the government in the Great Cause Palace, and asked the whereabouts of the rebel minister Yang Xuangan in the first sentence.

Dugu Ji was the first to reply: "Your Majesty, Yang Xuangan's body has been escorted to the Eastern Capital, Yang Jishan, the remnants of the Yang family, was captured alive, Yang Xuanting, Yang Xuanxian, and Yang Wanshuo were all killed in battle, and there is also Yang Minxing, who was appointed as a doctor in Chang'an City, although he was not directly involved, he must have known about this matter and has been detained. ”

"None escaped, very good!" Yang Guang's eyes were fierce, and he said: "First hang Yang Xuangan's body at the gate of the Eastern Capital for three days to show the public, and then break the corpse into ten thousand pieces, and then burn it into flying ashes, sprinkle it on the mountains and fields, and it will not be buried!" ”

If the bones are broken and ashes are scattered, the ancients in the Central Plains are not activated, and this kind of treatment of corpses is already very perverted.

The more Yang Guang thought about it, the more angry he became, he could have conquered Pyongyang City, but because Yang Xuangan stabbed him in the back and led the nobles to rebel, he failed to achieve his great cause, and also lost hundreds of thousands of troops, instigating many people to rebel, and the crime was extremely heinous, and the main culprit died like this, which was a little cheap.

"Put that Yang Jishan Ling Chi to death, civil and military officials above the ninth grade, each of them cut a knife, see how long he can hold on. In addition, Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, the Yushitai, etc., jointly investigated the Yu Party, and killed all those involved in the rebellion of the Yang family and the nine clans. Yang Guang gave the order to kill, and the court suddenly shuddered.

After this strict imperial order was issued, the people involved in the entire Luoyang City were first expanded from a few thousand to 30,000 people, and the Yang family was all killed.

The court also involved Zhao Yuanshu, the doctor of Guanglu, Hu Sizheng, the squire of the military department, General Zhou Zhong, the son of Zhou Luohu, Yang Gongdao, the son of Yang Xiong, Han Shige, the son of Han Baohu, and Shi Huaiyi, the son of Shi Wansui, were all wanted or beheaded, and the family property in Luoyang and Chang'an City was confiscated, and all the family members were put on death row.

The sons of Yu Shiji, Pei Yun, and Lai Hu'er also participated, and Yang Guang sold these loyal courtiers a face, did not move the family, and only gave the three sons who participated in the rebellion to death.

All those who were not arrested were all rewarded, and the DPRK and China sent Wuhou guards out of Beijing to search for them, and the local officials also posted wanted lists to cooperate with the arrest.

After Yang Guang did this, he promoted some people, Qu Tutong, Yang Yichen, Chen Liang, Lai Hu'er and others were all promoted to the next level, and they were previously officers and promoted to generals, and those who were previously generals were promoted to generals, and they were rewarded with a lot of gold and wealth, and the people who stayed behind, Duguji, Duan Da, Yuan Wendu, Li Hun and others, also made meritorious contributions this time, and they were all promoted to a position or a knight.

At the same time, Su Wei and his son were sent to Guanzhong to appease the people of Chang'an, and Li Yuan was mobilized to Honghua County, and he also knew the military of Guanyou to guard against turmoil in the northwest of Guannai.

"Your Majesty, it is gratifying to calm down Yang Xuangan's rebellion and restore stability to the four seas, but in some areas, bandits and bandits are rampant, robbing homes and houses, and robbing granaries, and it is also necessary to deploy troops to clear the encirclement and suppression, so as to prevent it from becoming bigger and suffering endlessly!" At this time, Pei Ju brought it up.

Fan Zigai, Wei Wensheng, Li Jing and others all agreed with this statement.

Yang Guang agreed, and assigned some generals to each county as county guards or governors of counties, responsible for clearing out bandits, and Qu Tutong, Yu Weiluo, Zhang Xutuo, Chen Liang and others were all assigned new tasks to quell the rebellion.

At this moment, Yu Shiji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, now is the time to employ people, Yu Wenshu, Wang Rengong, Wei Xuan and other generals, although the enemy was defeated in Liaodong, but how can there be an undefeated general in the world, so the minister has the courage to intercede, forgive the guilt of these generals again, restore the use, send them to the locality, wear the guilt and make meritorious service, if there is another failure, it is not too late to deal with it severely." ”

Yu Chengdu stood up and said: "The minister seconded the proposal, Yue Zhangyu Wenshu is conscientious and loyal to the emperor, please forgive your majesty for your guilt and give the generals a chance to make meritorious contributions." ”

Yang Guang frowned and was silent, as if he was also thinking about it.

More and more ministers such as Feng Deyi, Dugu Sheng, and Yuan Wendu stood up to intercede, and Luo Zhaoyun was not here, and no one clearly blocked the refutation, which made Yang Guang finally relent.

"Then pardon Yu Wenshu, Wei Xuan, Wang Rengong, etc., and temporarily do not confer titles, only give an official position, and make meritorious contributions."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yu Chengdu was overjoyed and finally rescued his father-in-law.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Yu Shiji and the others got up and achieved their goal.

Pei Yun frowned, he didn't want Yuwenshu to be reinstated so quickly, because now that Yang Valve has been eradicated, the first four valves also have Yuwen Valve, Li Valve, and Pei Valve, if Yuwenshu is suppressed, Yuwen Valve lacks the backbone, and the Pei Valve led by Pei Yun can lean to the front and strive for more benefits.

Yu Shiji, Feng Deyi and others have a very close relationship with Yuwenshu, and with the help of Yuwenshu's power, they can do a lot of things, and they belong to one camp, so they take the opportunity to rescue.

The rest of the ministers didn't want to get involved, so they all kept silent.
