Chapter 730: Fire Captain
In Yang Jian's mind, Yang Guang, the king of Jin who was once the marshal of the Chen army of the Three Routes, was the best candidate for Fusui Jiangnan.
However, even Gao Ying, the first assistant who used the strategy of suppressing and appeasing him, did not advocate that Yang Guang should lead the way and pacify Jiangnan.
Although Gao Ying's claim that he did not approve of Yang Guang's departure from the town of Guangling and Fusui Jiangnan was that the Turks had a great tendency to re-emerge, at this juncture, it was not appropriate to recruit Yang Guang, who was the most experienced in dealing with the Turks, to go south and change the town to Jiangnan, Yang Jian, with his understanding of Gao Ying for many years, could still understand that the reason why he took the lead in opposing Yang Guang's reform of Zhenjiangnan was actually out of deep concern about the turmoil of Yichu that had only been quelled by Yang Guang and merged with the prefecture.
You must know that Jiangnan is different from the Turks in the north. Whether the Turks are vassals to the imperial court, or re-dominate the Mobei grassland, are foreign affairs, and since Nanchen was destroyed, Jiangnan has been included in the territory of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang holds the military power in the world, and is the commander of the three armies of the unified army to defeat Chen, if he is ordered to Fu Sui Jiangnan, once he has the heart to compete with the crown prince Yang Yong in the future, and it can't be done, then he occupies Jiangnan, secession of one side, it is conceivable.
The assignment of Yang Guang may bring trouble, and the next few princes that appeared in Yang Jian's mind: Yang Jun, Yang Xiu, and Yang Liang were immediately rejected by himself.
The reason why Yang Jun, the king of Qin, was not suitable for Fusui Jiangnan was more or less similar to Yang Guang, and he was still troubled by family affairs, so it was difficult for him to concentrate on Fusui Jiangnan and serve the imperial court.
The brutal nature of Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, who had been exposed in the process of provoking the rebellion of the Qiang people in the southwest a few years earlier, is still fresh in Yang Jian's memory. If he is sent to Jiangnan, needless to say, he will be able to conquer Jiangnan and win people's hearts, and it will be good if he does not provoke a new rebellion in Jiangnan.
Although Yang Liang, the king of Han, was young, he was talented and intelligent, and he was not under Yang Guang, and he had just stepped down from Bingzhou and returned to Chang'an, and it was most suitable to assign him to change the town of Jiangnan. However, the most reassuring thing about Yang Liang is his age and lack of experience, if he is sent to Fusui Jiangnan, he will have to send another important minister of the court to act as an adviser for him, which is another head-scratching thing.
Yang Jian thought about it, and subconsciously shifted his gaze to the crown prince Yang Yong, and thought to himself: If he hadn't expanded the six rates of the East Palace without authorization, with his always conservative and serious character, he would have been the most suitable candidate to send him to Fusui Jiangnan. However, he has already made a big mistake, such as sending him to Fusui Jiangnan, once he makes another mistake, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to save easily.
"Sheng, the minister thinks that in today's court, only the king of Jin can take on the important task of Fusui Jiangnan, that is, he asks the holy edict to recall the king of Jin and order him to town Jiangnan again." Yang Jian's thoughts were interrupted by a voice that suddenly sounded, and he followed the voice and saw that it was Shangshu's right servant who shot Su Wei who spoke.
Yang Jian knew that compared with the edict he issued on the eve of the war against Chen, and forcibly tied Gao Ying, the first assistant of the dynasty, to the crown prince Yang Yong, among the current prime ministers in the court, Su Wei is probably the one who most wants to see Yang Guang replace Yang Yong and become the new prince.
Yang Su was well aware of the recent dispute between the court and the central government, and he didn't want to speak to the emperor in front of Gao Ying and Su Wei and express tendentious opinions, but because he had done a mess before to offer beautiful women to the emperor and open the outer room privately, he thought that he had offended the queen Dugu Jialuo, and even Yang Guang, who was appointed by Dugu Jialuo to buy the house in Mingzefang, was also afraid, for fear that Dugu Jialuo, Yang Guang, and his wife Zheng Qiye would join forces to deal with him, so when he saw that the emperor's mind was undecided, When fixing his eyes on himself, based on the consideration of currying favor with Yang Guang, he hugged his fists and suggested to Yang Jian: "The minister thinks that Turkic is really a disease of ringworm and scabies, and Jiangnan is a big problem. The minister knows that His Majesty has always had the grand ambition of unifying the four parts of the world, and if he wants to make the four parts of the world truly unified, it is particularly important to Fusui Jiangnan, and it is much more difficult than the minister's army to clear the Jiangnan rebellion. His Majesty Fu Wei bowed to the discretion. ”
Yang Jian saw that although Yang Su did not say it explicitly, his words had already revealed the meaning of agreeing with Yang Guang to soothe Jiangnan, so he smiled and said: "I have understood the meaning of the way. If I adopt the advice of Er and others, and recruit Ah Zong from Bingzhou to go south, you need to know that this time you are no longer controlled by him, you are the main suppressor, he is the main care, and they are not subordinate to each other, do you know? ”
"The ministers will live up to Your Majesty's trust, put down the Jiangnan rebellion as soon as possible, and serve Your Majesty's naturalization of Jiangnan and the realization of the unification of the world." Yang Su replied awe-inspiringly.
In this way, Yang Guang was sent to Guangling again as a "firefighting captain" only half a year after leaving Beijing to go out of the town and state again, and was reappointed as the governor of Yangzhou to Fusui Jiangnan.
In order to help Yang Su's army quickly quell the Jiangnan rebellion and create favorable conditions for Yang Guang to pacify the Jiangnan rebellion, Yang Jian specially ordered to transfer Shi Wansui and Li Che to Yang Su to take up the post of marching commander, and went to Jiangnan with Yang Su to quell the rebellion.
At the same time, due to the need to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan, Yang Jian sent his nephew Yang Xiong, the king of Guangping, out of the town and annexed the state after Yang Guangfeng was transferred south, assisted by Changsun Sheng, to temporarily pacify the Turks, so as to prevent the re-expansion of the Turkic forces after the Jiangnan was pacified.
Yang Guangyin considered that this trip to the south was different from the previous time when he led the army to destroy Nanchen, and the focus was on winning the hearts of the people, so when he was transferred south to Guangling from Bingzhou to take up his post, he specially wrote to Yang Jian, requesting that he go to Fusui Jiangnan with the princess Xiao E, in order to use the influence of the Xiao family in Jiangnan to help him win the hearts of the people in Jiangnan. At the same time, he sent someone to bring a letter back to Chang'an, and ordered two wise men in his shogunate, Zhang Heng and Pei Yun, to escort Xiao Er to Guangling to meet him.
After Pei Yun got the letter, without Yang Guang's permission and without discussing with Zhang Heng, he made his own decisions, and even forced and persuaded Xinyi Shitai, Sima Luo, and Feng Xiaoxi, the red-whisked girl who lived in the courtyard of Mingzefang, to leave Chang'an with himself and Xiao E, and rushed to Guangling.
When Liu Jushi, who had an infatuation with Feng Xiaoxi and thought about marrying her as his wife, found that overnight, Feng Xiaoxi, along with Xinyi and Sima Luo, who lived in the same house, had disappeared. Liu Jushi believed it, went home and told his parents, took some gold, silver and jewelry, left Chang'an, and went north to track down Feng Xiaoxi's whereabouts.
