Chapter 177: Fireworks March
Fireworks in March, Jiangdu.
Maoyuan City is picturesque, and the Lumen tile wants to flow. Also according to the water light hall, more Yuehua Building. Invade the night luan to open the mirror, welcome the winter pheasant to offer the fur. The ministers are all half drunk, and the Son of Heaven is worrying.
When Yang Guangchu arrived in Jiangdu City, Jiangdu was still a prosperous place, but at this time, the streets of Jiangdu City had long since lost the lively scene of the original, but in the Jiangdu Palace, there was still a scene of singing and dancing, and the monarchs and ministers were drunk, as if the chaotic world outside had nothing to do with it.
After Yang Guang arrived in Jiangdu, he was even more obscene, there were more than 100 rooms in the palace, each furnishing was extremely luxurious, and the beauties lived in it, and the beauties of one room were the masters every day.
Zhao Yuankai, the Cheng of Jiangdu County, was responsible for serving wine and food, Yang Guang, Empress Xiao and the pampered beauties ate all over the banquet, the wine glasses did not leave their mouths, and the more than 1,000 beauties in the entourage were often drunk.
However, Yang Guang actually knew that the world was in turmoil, and he was often worried and uneasy, but he had no ability to change anything, so he could only choose to abandon the hearing and visual, and anesthetize himself with wine. After the next court, he often wears a scarf on his head, wears short clothes, and walks with a cane, walking all over the buildings and buildings of the palace, and does not stop at night, and constantly enjoys the surrounding scenery, lest he not see enough.
After getting drunk that day, an official found an opportunity to report to Yang Guangyu: "Many of the Xiaoguo soldiers who followed His Majesty to Jiangdu have escaped, and if they don't take any measures, I'm afraid that Jiangdu will have no soldiers to defend against thieves!" ”
Although Yang Guang didn't answer at the time, he felt a little worried about this matter after he woke up, so he found Pei Ju and asked him what to do.
Pei Ju replied: "In terms of human feelings, it is difficult to stay for a long time without a spouse, please let the sergeants start a family here." ”
Yang Guang listened to Pei Ju's advice, so he summoned the widows and unmarried people in Jiangdu to the palace, and let the soldiers marry them.
However, there are more than 100,000 people in Jiangdu, and there are only a few thousand people who can successfully marry wives and settle down, and this measure cannot fundamentally solve the problem.
Yang Guang saw that the Central Plains was in chaos and there was no hope of returning to Luoyang, so he didn't want to go north, and planned to move the capital to Danyang (that is, Jiankang, now Nanjing), protect the land of Jiangdong, and ordered the ministers to discuss the relocation of the capital in the court. Li Cai, the general of the right guard, tried his best to explain that it was not advisable, asked Yang Guangyu to drive back to Luoyang, and argued with Yu Shiji angrily and went down to the palace.
Li Tongke, a subordinate secretary and a native of Hengshui, said: "Jiangdong is low-lying, the climate is humid, the environment is harsh, and the area is narrow. ”
The imperial history impeached Li Tongke for slandering the government, so the secretary of state said to Yang Guangzhi: "The people of Jiangdong have been longing for Your Majesty's happiness for a long time, and Your Majesty has crossed the river to comfort the ruling people, which is like Dayu's actions." ”
So Yang Guang ordered the construction of Danyang Palace and prepared to move the capital to Danyang.
At that time, Jiangdu's grain was exhausted, and most of the Xiaoguo who came with Yang Guangnan were from Guanzhong, who had been away for a long time, and missed their hometown, especially after learning that Guanzhong was occupied by the Li family, they were even more homesick.
After they saw that Yang Guang was preparing to move the capital to Danyang, they knew that Yang Guang had no intention of returning to Chang'an, so they all planned to flee back to their hometown. In the past, the scale of the escape was relatively small, but now the entire team is fleeing together.
Lang general Dou Xian led his subordinates to flee west. Yang Guang sent cavalry in pursuit, captured Dou Xian, and cut off his leader, which was hung on the city gate as a warning. But there were still people running away, which made Yang Guang feel helpless.
Hu Ben Lang general, Fu Feng man Sima De Ji has always been Yang Guang's trust, Yang Guang sent him to lead Xiao Guo, stationed in Dongcheng, Sima De Ji and the usual good Hu Ben Lang General Yuan Li, Zhi Pei Qiantong discussed: "Now Xiao Guo everyone wants to escape, I want to say, but I am afraid that I will be killed early; Don't say it, if something really happens, you can't escape the annihilation, what should I do? I also heard that Guannai fell, Li Xiaochang rebelled with Huayin, and the emperor imprisoned his two younger brothers and was ready to kill them, and the families of our people are all in the west, can you not worry about this? ”
Yuan and Pei both panicked and asked, "In that case, is there any good way?" ”
Sima Dejiao said: "If Xiaoguo escapes, we might as well run with them." ”
Yuan and Pei both said: "Good idea! So they contacted each other, and Yuan Min, the general of Huyalang, Zhao Xingshu, the general of Yingyanglang, Meng Bing, the general of Yingyanglang, Niu Fangyu, Xu Hongren, Xue Shiliang, Tang Fengyi, the Chengmen Lang, Zhang Kai, and Yang Shilan, the servant of Xun, all participated in the conspirator.
A palace maid told Empress Xiao: "Everyone outside wants to rebel. Empress Xiao said: "It's up to you to report to Your Majesty." ”
The palace maid said to Yang Guang, Yang Guang was very angry, thinking that this was not something that the palace maid should ask about, and killed the palace maid. Later, someone said to Empress Xiao, and Empress Xiao said: "It's okay, so as not to worry the emperor in vain!" ”
Since then, no one has spoken of what is going on outside.
Yang Guang knows a little about divination, likes to say Jiangnan dialect to Empress Xiao, this day in the middle of the night to set up wine, look up at the stars, and say to Empress Xiao: "There are many people outside who calculate Nong, but Nong is the Great Wall Duke Chen Shubao, and Qing is also Empress Shen." Let's just have fun and drink! Then he poured a full cup and got drunk.
Among the people who planned to lead the troops to escape, Huyalang had always been very good with Zhao Xingshu and Yu Wenzhi, who would be the young eunuch, and Yang Shilan was the nephew of Yuwen Zhihe, and Zhao and Yang told Yuwen Zhihe about their plans.
After hearing this, Yu Wenzhi immediately became extremely excited, and his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about some trick.
Sima Dejiao and others are scheduled to flee west together on the full moon day of March, Yuwen Zhihe said: "Although the emperor has no way, but the authority is still there, you escape, and Dou Xian is looking for death, now it is really God wants Sui to perish, heroes and heroes, and tens of thousands of people who also want to rebel, why not take this opportunity to kill Yang Guang, the faint monarch, make a big thing, and achieve the emperor's cause?" ”
Yu Wenzhi and several times before for violating the royal law, was ordered by Yang Guang to be imprisoned, although in the end Yang Guang was released by Yang Guang for the credit of his father Yu Wenshu, but Yuwen Zhiji has long had a grudge against Yang Guang.
Since Yuwen Shu's death, Yuwen Zhihe finally got a fat job as a young eunuch, and he has been ruthlessly embezzled for a few months, and recently he has been greedy for a while, and he has the audacity to remove a lot of the silver that originally built Danyang Palace.
After that, Yu Wenzhi and night were awakened, afraid that the East Window incident would happen, and Yang Guang cut off his head, so when he learned that Sima Dejiao and others were going to defect, he hated in his heart, and simply instigated Sima Dejia and others to kill Yang Guang, and it was a hundred.
