With the continuous expansion of the conscription of soldiers, Li Yuan's influence in Taiyuan, Hedong, and his reputation became more and more prominent, which made Gao Junya and Wang Wei who Yang Guang stayed in Taiyuan very frightened, and because Li Yuan held their handles, they were even more panicked.

"Brother Gao, I think this Li Yuan has a lot of ambition in his heart, he borrowed the name of defending against the Turks and Liu Wuzhou, and wantonly recruited troops and horses, and now in the entire Taiyuan Hedong area, when it comes to Li Yuan's prestige, it is only big compared to the imperial court. Moreover, this Hedong area is close to Guanzhong, and now Li Mi is in turmoil in the Central Plains, and the emperor is hiding in Jiangdu, and the whip is beyond his reach, if he rebels, we are afraid that we will bear the brunt! Gao Junya nodded.

"Brother Wang, what you said is very right, I also have this consideration, I have always wanted to discuss with Brother Wang, you see if we will communicate with Jiangdu, Luoyang, and Chang'an first, and then make plans."

"Also, we secretly contacted some junior officers to strengthen the contact, and Pei Lin also had to go to find out his tone, and we must not let Li Yuan, a thief, succeed." Wang Wei and Gao Junya discussed ways to deal with Li Yuan in a staggered manner, and the Jiangdu area also sang and danced in the wine.

"Your Majesty! Drink! ”

"Good! Beauty, come, let's drink together! After Yang Guang came to Jiangdu, he selected beauties to enrich the harem, sang songs all night, drank and had fun all night, Queen Xiao repeatedly admonished to take care of his body, Yang Guang ignored it, and advised Queen Xiao:

"Zitong! Now the Central Plains is in turmoil, only the south of the Yangtze River is still peaceful, the ancients used to have the phrase of timely fun, we still have to get by! ”

"But the emperor, the Central Plains is in danger, and the emperor should work hard as he did when he first ascended the throne, and revitalize my Great Sui River!"

"Isn't there Yu'er in Chang'an, didn't Luoyang also arrange Dong'er? Aren't Qi'er, Xuan'er, and Gao'er all around us! It's like there are three courts, so what's there to worry about. ”

"But they're still young."

"There's nothing more to say, they were born in the royal family, and they have to have the responsibility of being a child of the royal family, can I still protect them for a lifetime with my legs on one day?" Empress Xiao knew that her persuasion was useless, so she had to shut up, and at this time, Yu Wenhua came to report:

"Your Majesty, there is news from Luoyang from Taiyuan, Hedong."

"Speak!" Yu Wenhua looked around Yang Guang and didn't speak, Yang Guang waved his hand, and the beautiful singers around Yang Guang and the musicians and eunuchs in the hall also left. Empress Xiao also retired under the pretext of excuse.

"His Royal Highness the King of Yue sent someone to say that he had received a secret report from Wang Wei and Gao Junya, and Li Yuanming recruited troops and horses in the name of guarding against Liu Wuzhou and the Turks to expand his strength. In fact, he was preparing for his own rebellion, and asked the emperor to immediately issue an order to deal with him to prevent future troubles. ”

"What? What about the messengers? Quickly pass him to the temple! ”

"Your Majesty, the messenger has been running all the way, and in order to prevent the rebels from intercepting him along the way, he has died of anger." After Yang Guang heard this, he pondered for a while:

"Who else knows about it now?"

"Now only the emperor and his ministers know about this matter, and others don't know yet, the ministers affect the morale of the army, but I also ask the emperor to quickly issue an order, rectify the military and horse honor guards, immediately return to Luoyang, stabilize the situation in the Central Plains, and then slowly respond to His Royal Highness the Acting King to stabilize the crisis in Guanzhong. You must know that most of the soldiers and horses who came to Jiangdu to escort were from Guanzhong, if what the two of them said was true, then once Li Yuan captured Guanzhong, the ministers were afraid that the army would be scattered. Yu Wenhua said softly while looking at Yang Guang's face. Yang Guang's face was gloomy.

"This matter must not be spread and leaked!"

"Yes! Wechen obeys! Yu Wenhua waited for a while, saw that Yang Guang did not speak, got up and retreated, and before he left the palace, he heard Yang Guang's cold voice:

"Yuwen Aiqing, pass on the decree for me, the soldiers in Guanzhong have worked hard, they have left their hometowns with me, they have worked hard, I am very affectionate, and in three days, the queen will let the queen select a group of palace maids to match the single soldiers in the army, as a token of consolation, admiration!" After hearing this, Yu Wenhua knew that Yang Guang was unwilling to return to Guanzhong, and left the palace after thanking him, and when he left, he heard Yang Guang's song and swallow dance. A complicated gaze flashed in his eyes. When they arrived at the barracks, the general of the Yu Culture and Concentration Department announced loudly:

"Generals, the emperor's holy grace is immense! Knowing that we have been away from home for a long time, we hereby decree the release of 3,000 palace maids, and order the people to select women of appropriate age to be matched with meritorious soldiers in the army. As soon as Yu Wenhua finished speaking, the people in the camp talked about it:

"Good! I've been here for a long time, I'm really not used to not having a woman, you know that my Lao Xu can't do without a woman every night, I don't have money to go to a brothel these days, now it's okay, this Jiangnan people are all bright and smooth, much better than the yellow-faced woman in my hometown. ”

"Hey! You pervert, who doesn't know that you think about men and women all day long! Look at how thin you have become, and if you do it again, your little essence and blood will be sucked dry by the woman. ”

"You know what! This is called picking yin and supplementing yang, do you understand! I learned it from an old Taoist priest. ”

"Hey! Also pick yin to supplement yang! I see that if you continue like this, you will go directly to Lord Yama. In the midst of a lewd laugh, a discordant voice sounded:

"Lord Yuwen, can the emperor talk about when he will return to the Central Plains?" After these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the camp began to be depressed, and most of the troops escorted by Yang Guang were Guanzhong people, and they would be homesick after being away from home for a long time. The sad Qin dialect is often heard at night. Listening to the rough Qin tone, the homesickness in everyone's hearts rose and fell like waves.

"Brother Linghu, I know that you are homesick, but the emperor doesn't speak or make an order, how can I, as a general escort, disobey the emperor's will?" After listening to Yu Wenhua's words, the person who was called Brother Linghu by Yu Wenhua lowered his head, and the others were disappointed and did not speak, Yu Wenhua returned to the palace and only played to Yang Guangyu:

"Qi Shengshang, after hearing the news, the officers and men in the army shouted long live, and they all buckled their heads to thank the emperor Longen!" Yang Guang laughed when he heard this, only Yu Wenhua's face was cold and he didn't speak. Chang'an Dynasty Palace. Yang Yu has been waiting for reinforcements and Yang Guang's will since he sent a recital to Luoyang and Jiangdu, but nearly a month has passed, Jiangdu's will has not arrived, and the message of asking for help in Luoyang has not been replied, and Yang Yu's heart is anxious like thousands of ants crawling. In a panic, he invited Yang Guang's auxiliary ministers, Yin Shishi and Qu Tutong, to come over. Wei Wensheng said that he was sick, so Yang Yu did not invite him.

"Two lords, now this king has received a secret report, saying that Li Yuan, who is stationed in Taiyuan, Hedong, has recruited a large number of troops in the name of preventing the Turks and Liu Wuzhou, I don't know what good strategy you have?" Listening to Yang Yu's words, everyone present was silent in thought, Yang Yu was anxious, and knelt down to the Yin World Master and Qu Tutong present.

"Two Mentors!" Yin Shi Shi and Qu Tutong quickly knelt down together.

"Lord Wang! You're a torturer. ”

"Nope! Since the emperor's grandfather left Chang'an, the two of you have been assisting the lonely king, today the lonely king is in trouble, and I hope that the two teachers will help again, and I will take the student's life, and ask the two teachers to help me. The Yin Master rolled his eyes. Both hands helped Yang Yu up.

"Lord Wang, please get up! Things are not yet at the end of the road. Besides, the news from Taiyuan Hedong may not be true. After listening to the words of the Yin World Master, Yang Yu looked at Qu Tutong, Qu Tutong did not object, and Yang Yu's heart calmed down a little temporarily. But Yin Shishishi's other words made Yang Yu's heart rise again.

"However, Li Yuan is hypocritical, and the emperor mentioned in front of his ministers that he should be more wary of him when he was in Chang'an, in my opinion, this news cannot be untrue. Therefore, the minister suggested sending a general to defend the nearest Huoyi in Taiyuan and the key pass Tongguan in Chang'an, and in addition, quickly sent a secret envoy to Taiyuan to contact Wang Wei and Gao Junya, and grant them heavy power. ”

"Hmmm! You're right, good! There are a few people to choose from! ”

"Lord Wang, Huo Yichen recommended Song Laosheng, a veteran general in the court. This person is extremely brave, and has made countless feats in the battle formation many times, and can be the first defensive vanguard. Qu Tutong stepped forward to report. Yang Yu nodded. Immediate quasi-playing. As soon as Qu Tutong finished speaking, the Yin World Master also stepped forward and said:

"Lord Wang! Tongguan is also very important, the minister recommended Lord Qu Tu to be the general of Tongguan, Lord Qu Tu has a high prestige in the army, so it will ensure that Tongguan is foolproof. Qu Tutong originally thought that the Yin World Master would recommend his person, but who knew that it was himself who recommended him, and he knew in his heart that this was the Yin World Master's exclusion of himself, but now it is also a very critical moment, who can guarantee that Taiyuan's secret report is not true? Thus there is no plea:

"It's rare for the prince to trust! The last general is willing to take the command. After arranging the defense of Huoyi and Tongguan, Yang Yu personally wrote a secret decree and asked the Yin Shishi to send trusted dead soldiers to Taiyuan, so that Wang Wei and Gao Junya could act cheaply. After finishing it, Yang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmmm! All right! There are two Aiqing who are giving advice by the side of the lonely king, and they are lonely and worry-free! Someone! Spread the message of the lonely king, set up a banquet, and then call some singers and dancers to help the fun, and the lonely king wants to have a few more drinks with the two Aiqing. Yin Shishi and Qu Tutong glanced at each other, and they seemed to see each other's sighs in their eyes.
