Listening to Wei Zheng talk about the past of Yang Xuan, the king of Qi, Li Xiangshi couldn't help but ask: "Does His Royal Highness the King of Qi have a grudge against the old Yang family!" ”

Wei Zheng smiled and said, "My lord also thinks that King Qi's approach is a little perverse." Indeed, I was also surprised when I heard the news for the first time. It is said that King Qi's ability is not small, but his approach is really a little incomprehensible. ”

Li Xiang agreed very much, and then asked: "You just said so much, is it possible that the matter in Luoyang this time is also related to this King of Qi?" ”

"Well, I'm not completely sure that he did it yet, but it definitely has something to do with him." Wei Zheng approached Li Xiang and said with a smile: "And this His Royal Highness the King of Qi has come up with a new trick." Li Xiang saw Wei Zheng's smile and knew that the wonderful King Qi would definitely surprise people this time.

Sure enough, Wei Zheng then began to surprise King Qi this time, but it really surprised Li Xiang, it turned out that there are still such nonsense people in this world, and they are reckless.

Since King Qi desperately escorted him in Yanmen Pass, Yang Guang also began to reflect on whether he was a little too harsh on this son, although this guy often makes mistakes, and they are all big mistakes, but counting with his fingers, it seems that he really didn't deliberately go against him, the emperor's father, it was completely a child's temperament, and he was messing around, but every time things were big and difficult to clean up.

Looking at the daily life of King Qi collected by Long Wei, Yang Guang also knew that this son was purely a troublemaker, and no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like he had messy thoughts, let alone threaten his father's throne.

At this time, the eldest son, Yang Zhao, the prince of Yuande, had passed away, and the third son, Yang Gao, the king of Zhao, was still young and couldn't see his talent, plus the world of the Great Sui was already surging, and Yang Guang had long known that the chaos in the world was coming, and if the imperial court could not take advantage of the chaos, his net worth would be difficult to protect.

If he really dies, the world of the Great Sui will fall into the hands of others, such an ending is unacceptable to him, and he must take precautions. The establishment of the crown prince has become the most important thing in Yang Guang's heart, and the candidates for the crown prince are only Yang Hui, the king of Qi, and Yang Gao, the king of Zhao, as for the sons of Prince Wende, his Yang Guang's grandsons are not qualified yet.

After all, Yang Yong's martial arts are strong, and his talent in the military array is really not comparable to others, so in Yang Guang's heart, Yang Yong is becoming more and more important, and he has expressed his willingness to make Yang Yong the crown prince with the ministers of the DPRK and China more than once.

Don't think that such a thing as establishing a prince is a family matter of the Yang family, none of the things involving the emperor's family are small things, isn't there a saying called "royal selfless affairs", not to mention that the establishment of the prince is such a big matter involving the fortunes of the country, just say that the emperor wants to make a harem woman as a concubine is not his own decision.

Which one of the officials in the center of the court is a fool, Yang Guang gave a slight prompt, and everyone knew the meaning, so the court actually opposed His Royal Highness King Qi entering the East Palace. This is unprecedented! It can be said that there is no one before, and as for those who have not come, there is no one in the history books.

No matter which emperor appointed the crown prince in all dynasties, there will always be a group of people in the court who will support it, the reason is very simple, even people like Qin Hui have two or three friends, not to mention the prince who can be elected as a candidate for the crown prince, who doesn't want to be a minister from the dragon?

It's a pity that His Royal Highness King Qi really doesn't even have a friend in the court, and it's such a strange thing!

Yang Guang was dumbfounded at that time, he wanted Yang Yun to be the crown prince, and he always needed the support of the ministers, even if there was a minister, at least Yang Guang had a room to operate, but now it's okay, there is no one, and he, the emperor, has really become a loner in this matter.

So the matter was put on hold, Yang Guang did not mention it again, and the ministers tacitly did not interfere, as if it had never happened at all.

Yang Guang himself had to reconsider this issue, since no one supported Yang Jun, even if he, Yang Guang, ignored everyone's opposition and established Yang Jun as the crown prince, after a hundred years, these ministers would still listen to Yang Jun's words? Can an emperor run a country well without the support of his ministers? It's pure fantasy.

There is nothing impermeable in the world, although King Yang Jinqin followed Yang Guang to Jiangdu later, but Yang Guang has never arranged official positions and tasks for him. Originally, Yang Guang wanted to directly establish the prince in one step, but now that it has been shelved, Yang Yun has become an idle prince who no one cares about.

However, Yang Yong enjoyed such a day very much, until one day the people in his house suddenly heard the news of the court and hurriedly told Yang Yong. Yang Jun was only now pitted by the ministers!

Angry! Absolute rage!

A prince who doesn't want to be an emperor is not a good prince! I don't have an idea because it's impossible, but now it's obviously possible, who would give up the opportunity! So Yang Jun began to use his brain.

The first thing to explain is that Yang Jun is really not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart. No matter how many things he did that he couldn't laugh or cry about, it was all his own nonsense, and once he needed to be serious, His Royal Highness King Qi still had two brushes!

He found that the reason why he did not become the crown prince was not because of Yang Guang, but mainly because there was no one in the court to support him. The countermeasure is also very simple, just find someone to support him. Who should I look for? Of course, it is the bigwigs who speak with weight and have a pivotal position.

So Yang Yong's wooing action began!

The first trick, give a gift!

That's right, it's a gift, just like the way of running in later generations. Don't look at him as a prince, the bigwigs in the court really don't take him seriously.

Failed!

Because the scope of his gifts is so wide, and the gifts are too interesting!

Yang Jin's gifts are not divided into heads, as long as they can go to court in the court, even if it is a five-grade official standing at the end, he will not let it go. The gift is one for each person, and it's all the same.

What is a gift? Twenty taels of silver, and one piece of silk.

What is this standard? To put it simply, silver was still scarce at this time, and even Yang Guang paid these ministers salaries and paid them all things that could be used as money, such as five-baht coins and brocade silks. How much can you buy for twenty taels of silver? A cloth that is not too bad, or a meal for five people in a high-end restaurant, or a little lady who is not too famous to spend the night with in the Chu Pavilion of Qinlou, in short, is not worth much.

To put it bluntly, Yang Yun is equivalent to giving each of these officials who are qualified to stand in front of Yang Guang to go to the court, two pieces of cloth per person, and it is about 500 yuan for the current people.

Well, needless to say, the result is needless to say, you go to ask someone to do something, and you give a gift of five hundred dollars, I don't know what the person receiving the gift will think!

In fact, I don't blame Yang Jun, after all, he is also a prince, and he can't do business, except for the fixed income, everything else is based on Yang Guang's usual rewards, plus he himself is not a money-saving master, how can a big family have so much money to give gifts, it is conceivable that some people in the Manchu Dynasty have no idea about him being a prince, at most they are neutral, and it is okay if it is not appropriate, now it is good, he is offended!

Although this failed gift giving made Yang Jin very depressed for a while, the temptation of the throne still made Yang Jin reinvigorate, and he began to analyze the current situation in the court again.

Yang Guang came to Jiangdu, and the court here is also full of talents, but Yang Jian suddenly found that it seems that it is not these people in the court who can really influence the trend of the world, and even his father Yang Guang can't influence it.

When he found out that almost all the generals who were guarding one side in many places across the country were overlords, Yang Jun's heart was alive.

He found his niche and saw this opportunity clearly. Since there is no one in the Jiangdu court to support him, he can go outside the court to find supporters. In any case, he is the son of Yang Guang, which is an indisputable fact, and he himself thinks that no one is qualified to compete with him for the position of prince except himself.

At the same time, he was also pleased to find that the old guys in the court who did not support him were basically civil officials, and many of them were spokesmen of the family, and the people who could call the wind and rain in the local area were all arrogant generals with military power.

A general, he is a military general himself, and he is quite a powerful general. This is his chance!

Most of the warriors have a problem, that is, they admire the strong, as long as you can defeat me, then I will obey you! It just so happens that Yang Jun has such capital, and he doesn't dare to say that the generals who are guarding the side outside have dealt with Yang Jun, but there are always a few people who have a relationship with him, so let's start with them!

This time, Yang Jun found the right way, and at the same time used the right method!

He first gave his emperor father a confession, saying that he was a little bored in Jiangdu and wanted to go out for a walk, and very earnestly said that he would not cause trouble outside, and even only had a dozen personal guards with him, which would definitely not affect the local government, and asked his father to agree.

Yang Guang is definitely sorry for his son at this time, the good prince did not become a good prince, and the mood will not be too good, so with a stroke of the pen, Yang Jian became the chaint of the parade on behalf of the Son of Heaven, but Yang Guang did not give him any power, such as cutting first and then playing, acting cheaply, nothing, just telling him that no matter where he goes, at least it is enough to ensure good food and drink.

Yang Jin's purpose was not these, and of course he didn't care, so he happily accepted the order, and set off with more than a dozen guards the next day.

The first stop, Daxing!

What a place is Daxing, the national capital! It is the most important city after the establishment of the entire Great Sui Dynasty and the heart of the Great Sui. Although Yang Guang was absent from Daxing most of the time after becoming emperor, this did not change Daxing's status and its role.

The reason why Yang Jin chose Daxing is because Daxing has a guard who has a good relationship with him, Qu Tutong!
