Wang Shichong's eyes flashed with green, and he said generously: "But if it was the period of the first emperor, I, Wang Shichong, would not think of rebellion, because the four seas are stable, the people are rich, and the people's hearts are towards the Great Sui royal family, and the conspirators who raise troops have only one way to die." ”

"But what kind of character is Yang Guang, you should know better than me, this person is evil and cruel by nature, and he is jealous and jealous, and there is no one to be a king, even Gao Xi, Xue Daoheng and other loyal ministers, the direct ministers are not willing to let go, by his side, only the bearded and slapping horses are left, you just want to enter the loyalty, be a loyal minister, and in the end you can only end up with a big stem (the loyal minister of the king of Shang, who was dissected by the king of Shang and died). I don't want that. ”

Xiao Yu sighed: "What you said makes sense, but after all, he is a king, we are ministers, as courtiers, we are obliged to advise the king and straighten out the country, Gao Xi and Xue Daoheng are old ministers of the former dynasty, and they have despised him when the Supreme was a prince before, and the situation is different." ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "A person like Yu Shiji is not an old minister of the previous dynasty, why don't you dare to say that Yang Guang is not a word?" Because if he said it, the end would not be much better than Xue Daoheng. This is the case with the expedition to Goguryeo, even you can see that the outcome is unpredictable, far from being as easy to crush as the expedition to Tuyuhun, but why is there no one to admonish the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty? Because everyone knows that Yang Guang has long made up his mind to mobilize the manpower and material resources of the whole country to fight this battle, whether he persuades or not, it is the same. ”

Xiao Yu gritted her teeth: "Then what are you doing with me today?" Wang Shichong, after talking about it for a long time, we don't need to talk about it anymore, what does my sister want you to do with me. You name it. ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly. He let out a long sigh of relief. Today's venting made him feel very refreshed, and he said aloud: "Today, Yang Guang asked your sister to discuss politics, which means that he has doubts about Yuwen, even if he himself begins to doubt the victory or defeat of the expedition to Goguryeo, but he will not stop, if he loses, he will be defeated, and he will fight again next year." Yang Guang can afford to lose, and he also believes that if the Great Sui can afford to lose, it is to consume, even if it is filled with human life, it can also consume Goguryeo alive. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reduced the country by half and defeated the Xiongnu, Yang Guang would definitely learn from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. ”

Xiao Yu sighed and shook her head, a trace of loneliness and helplessness flashed in her eyes: "You're right." Your Majesty is indeed such a person, and he will not look back if he hits the south wall. Then what else did he ask his sister? What can I do? ”

Wang Shichong stroked his goatee. said: "Your sister is a smart person, she will definitely tell Yang Guang that Yuwen Shu is unreliable, if he thinks he has a chance of winning, he will have let his grandson Yuwen Chengdu be a pioneer and make meritorious service, the reason why he will let his cronies, Duan Wenzhen, the secretary of the military department, recommend Yang Xuangan as the former army commander, is to let Yang Xuangan be the substitute ghost, if Yang Xuangan fights smoothly, he will find a way to prevent Yang Xuangan from smashing Pyongyang, and take over the credit by himself, if Yang Xuangan is defeated, then just put all the responsibility on him, Just like he did to Zhang Dinghe in Tuyuhun. ”

Xiao Yu nodded: "Well, yes, my sister will definitely say this, last time our Xiao family was so miserable, it was all Yuwenshu's ghost, this revenge must be avenged, I am happy to see it fall in public and private!" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "So this time I am helping you, who called me an ally with your sister." Yuwen talked about this person, and I had already seen that he was unhappy, so I just took this opportunity to bring him down, and this is up to you. ”

Xiao Yu was slightly stunned: "Oh, why would you let me say it?" I'm just an idler at home for degrading, what can I say? ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "Your sister will say that she is a woman, how to understand military affairs, and although you are a civilian official, you also know a little about military affairs, so you will definitely let Yang Guang find you to play the right thing, because today is an emergency, Yang Guang would never have thought that I would come to discuss this matter with you, right to the caliber, so I will definitely think that your opinion is your personal opinion, not someone instigated, if you talk to the point, not only can Yang Guang be suspicious of Yuwenshu, but also make your Xiao family, really Xiao Xiaofu again!" ”

Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Then what do you want me to say, how to do it?!" ”

Wang Shichong said with a straight face: "Just say what you just said, it's okay, add a few more words, say that now the people's power in Shandong and Hebei has exceeded the limit, Hebei excavated the Grand Canal, Shandong requisitioned grain and shipbuilding, and there have been bandits who have begun to evade military service and go to the mountains to become bandits. If Your Majesty repeatedly insists on an expedition with a large army, you must leave loyal and reliable famous generals in Shandong and Hebei and Bingzhou to guard it, so as to ensure the stability of the rear! ”

Xiao Yu nodded: "Who should be left to guard?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Hu Benlang should be left to guard Zhang Xutuo as the county guard of Qi County, and Hu Yalang should be left as Li Jing as the commander of Mayi County, so that the front line can be safe." ”

Xiao Yu silently read the names of these two people twice, and there was a trace of vigilance on his face: "These two people can't be your subordinates, do you want to take advantage of the fact that the army is out and take the opportunity to make trouble?" ”

Wang Shichong laughed: "Even I have to summon to follow Yang Guang on an expedition, how can I be stupid enough to let my subordinates make trouble in the rear?" Unless I don't want to live anymore. You can rest assured, these two are really famous generals with civil and military talents, and if they are placed in the rear, even if there is a large-scale civil uprising or a Turkic invasion, they can also protect the country of the Great Sui. ”

Xiao Yu shook his head in disbelief: "Didn't you want to take advantage of the chaos to seize the Sui Dynasty?" Why? ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "The Sui Dynasty is not exhausted, even if the expedition fails, and the muscles and bones are broken, it is not until the end of the day, the first to raise troops will only be a paving stone for the later heroes, I am not so stupid." Therefore, in this expedition, I will still keep Yang Guang, if I defeat Goguryeo, this newly conquered region, rebellion continues, not only can not become an effective territory, but to place a large army, far away to maintain the rule, in this way, in order to completely consume the national strength of the Great Sui, make the people resentful, the heroes of the world rise up and destroy the Sui, at that time, it is the time for me to conform to the people's hearts and truly replace it. Brother Xiao, do you understand? ”

Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and said, "You are really a peerless hero, maybe I should make a statement to the Supreme and expose your conspiracy." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Of course you can speak, but you have to think about it carefully, if you expose me, you will also expose your sister, expose your Xiao family, and when the time comes, you will have a whole family to accompany me to the execution ground, and finally become ghosts together and watch the end of the Sui Dynasty underground, isn't it also interesting?"
