Chapter 590: Restraining the Horse from the Precipice

Yang Xuangan immediately said: "It's different, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty are both self-exemplary, diligent and thrifty, not like Chen Shubao, who is arrogant and lascivious, and only cares about his own pleasure." ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "Chen Shubao just likes to drink and have fun, and follows a few concubines to be merry in the harem, but he didn't build a lot of construction or fight in all directions, how much burden did it cause to the people, do you really want to be more serious, the Renshou Palace built by the Yue Kingdom killed tens of thousands of people, compared to Chen Shubao's pleasure alone, which scourge the people of Li more than the pleasure of Chen Shubao?" ”

The Renshou Palace incident is the shadow of Yang Su's heart for a lifetime, and it is also the eternal pain of Yang Xuangan, Wang Shichong mentioned it like this, although Yang Xuangan's eyes were red with anger, but he also had nothing to say.

Wang Shichong glanced at Yang Xuangan, drank a bowl of wine by himself, and continued: "So whether it is Mingjun or Dusk, it is difficult to define, if you only care about your own comfort, do not try to make progress, and don't want to make a difference, is that considered Mingjun?" ”

"On the other hand, if you are ambitious, want to conquer the Quartet, and want to build a large number of buildings in the country, then you will inevitably consume the people's power and make the people in the world suffer hardships and suffering, so as to fulfill the reputation of your generation of heroes."

"Yang Xuangan, I know that you prefer Emperor Qin and Han Wu, in the eyes of your general, they are Mingjun, but if you are an ordinary citizen and just want to live in peace, then do you still think like this?"

Yang Xuangan shook his head: "Although you have some truth in what you say, I don't agree with your opinion, you must always make a difference in life, and when the country is strong, you can naturally expand your territory, and the Qin State is the aftermath of Fen VI." dominates the world, and Han Wu also inherited the rule of Wenjing to have the feat of counterattacking the Huns, naturally not a faint king. And that Chen Shubao. Doing nothing is just greedy for pleasure, how can it be compared with Wenjing's hard work? ”

Wang Shichong laughed: "Then according to your meaning, the current emperor has gone through more than 20 years of emperor's rule, and now the world is peaceful, and the money and grain in the warehouses around the country can be eaten for decades. Conquest of the Quartet; Internally, he is building a lot of construction and building palaces and cities, do you think he is a bright monarch or a faint monarch? ”

Yang Xuangan was speechless for a moment. He glared twice, but closed his mouth.

Wang Shichong continued: "You must also know about Changsun Sheng's plan, he wants to enclose the land in Mo Nan and build a city. If his vision is approved. Then it was another move by Qin Shi Huang to build the Great Wall, how many Meng Jiangnu will be in the world at that time, have you thought about it? ”

"If the new monarch who ascends the throne next, if he listens to the words of Changsun Sheng and builds a city in Monan, he will use the people's strength; If you don't listen to Changsun Sheng's words, according to you, you don't want to forge ahead, and you waste a good opportunity to chase away the Xiongnu that has not been seen for thousands of years. Yang Xuangan, you come to sue me. How to be a faint king, how to be a bright king? ”

Yang Xuangan realized that he was a little bypassed by Wang Shichong, and it would not be good for him to continue like this, so he coughed and said: "Wang Shichong, there is no specific standard for this matter, you have to see what the people want at the time." ”

"Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in their own lives, because of this kind of external expansion, the people are not happy, the world is in chaos, this is not a faint monarch, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty Emperor Jing did not let the Xiongnu break through because of his own recuperation, this is not a faint monarch."

"As for Chen Shubao, he only cares about his own pleasure, and he can't even make a correct response after the enemy crosses the river, neither counterattacks nor orders King Qin, just sitting and waiting for the enemy army to destroy him, such a person, no matter how you explain it, is just a complete faint king."

"None of us can say clearly what will happen in the future, Changsun Sheng's mention is very tempting, but it also depends on whether it is within the range that the country can bear, if it is true that the people of the world can't bear this project, and want to flee or even rebel, then this matter will not be able to continue, even if Changsun Sheng's heart is big, it cannot violate the will of the people."

"Just like my father repaired Renshou Palace, if he didn't be so anxious, he repaired slowly, let the people rotate, and slowly repaired it for ten or eight years, I believe that so many people would not die, and the same is true for the construction of the Great Wall in Monan, Changsun Sheng also said that it may take several generations of efforts, and he himself does not expect to build it in one day."

"So Wang Shichong, when the time comes, it will be a Ming Jun or a Dull King, it doesn't matter if you say it, it doesn't count if I say it, it depends on the reaction of the people in the world, if the Lord is holy like today, the country is rich and strong, and the country is stable and stable, if you want to engage in conspiracy and tricks, no one will die with you."

"Even if you can kidnap Yang Yong to Yang Liang, the two of them will be monolithic? Won't there be open and secret fighting? Only relying on a careerist like Xue Ju to start an incident, can the world really be in chaos? ”

Wang Xuangan listened to Yang Xuangan's words, didn't say a word, bit his lip tightly, he couldn't even drink any more wine, his green eyes sometimes dilated, sometimes contracted, and it could be seen that his heart was also fighting fiercely.

Wang Shichong waited for Yang Xuangan to start drinking the wine on the table, then sighed softly and said, "Yang Xuangan, do you know how many years we have planned for today's event and how much effort we have put in?" Seeing that it is about to happen, but you are forcibly stopping it here, how can people be willing? ”

Yang Xuangan put down the wine bowl in his hand, shook his head, and said: "Wang Shichong, although I don't like you, but I made it clear to you last time, we may be friends on the same chariot in the future, but now I don't think this is a good opportunity, I know that you not only brought your old bottom here this time, but also got a lot of friends from all over the world over the years, such as Xue Ju's people, such as Guzang's people, and maybe your people in Kanto, otherwise you don't have the ability to make up more than 20,000 people." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Yes, if it weren't for such a strong strength, how could I dare to grit my teeth and let it go?" I've always done things before I act, I missed today's opportunity, maybe I have to wait another ten years, I don't want to give up, and my friends don't want to give up. ”

Yang Xuangan laughed: "Really? Those friends of yours really don't want to give up? Not necessarily! Wang Shichong, you are a smart person, you should know Xue Ju and Gu Zang's people better than me, if they really want to give you a go, there will be more than 20,000 people here. There can be at least forty or fifty thousand, and with this strength, you can even directly attack Renshou Palace, instead of thinking about taking advantage of the emptiness in the city to kidnap Yang Yong. ”

Wang Shichong's face flushed slightly: "Naturally, it is impossible for people to press all the bets at once." It's not that step, and if we really attack Renshou Palace directly, it will be a blatant rebellion, first, there is no way to retreat, and second, in this way, even Changsun Sheng will not support us, forty or fifty thousand hand-armed soldiers. There were no armor, no crossbows, and no cavalry swordsmen. It was impossible to fight against the 50,000 troops outside the city. ”

Yang Xuan felt a little bottom in his heart, and after confirming Changsun Sheng's attitude, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "So what you can really rely on is those people under your own command, even if you attack the East Palace." Thousands of guards in the East Palace, plus the soldiers of hundreds of officials in the city. You may not be able to win, not to mention that as long as it drags on for a few hours, the troops on the side of the East Palace will be put into battle, and even Changsun Sheng will not be able to sit back and watch you make too much trouble and be indifferent. ”

Yang Xuangan suddenly laughed: "Wang Shichong, I'm afraid this is the real purpose of you asking me to drink." You have to fight quickly, if you can't save Yang Yong within an hour, you're done. But although there are many of your men, they can't all enter the city at once. Second, the defense of the East Palace is not tofu scum, and you also know that I have now transferred the family members of the house to assist in the defense. In this way, there is no chance of winning. ”

Wang Shichong blurted out: "Shut up! He slammed his fist on the table, and the hops flew everywhere, causing himself and Yang Xuangan's bodies to be everywhere.

Yang Xuangan knew that he had completely taken Wang Shichong's sore feet, and this time he was more confident, he laughed and said: "Wang Shichong, you don't have to worry, I'm actually for your good, you are too reckless and reckless, now the world is at peace, even if you kidnap Yang Yong, nine times out of ten, you can't toss too much, and when the time comes, you will completely expose yourself, do you think this is a wise move?" ”

"Your allies are only symbolically sending some people to help, those who are outside the city should be them, and all your own old books are in the city, you have to think about it, if you don't succeed, then your whole clan will die."

"I said earlier that even if you attack the East Palace, I will kill Yang Yong's entire family first, so that you will end up empty, now I will take a step back, even if you kill and injure more than half of your own people, rescue Yang Yong, and finally successfully rush out of Daxing with one or two thousand remnants of soldiers, and send Yang Yong to Yang Liang, you can get the opportunity you want?"

"You can't hide this from the public chaos in the city, and it is impossible for the imperial court to give you the opportunity to control the military power. And you only have a thousand remnants of the defeated army, and fled to Yang Liang, the king of the Han Dynasty who has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, do you think Yang Liang or Yang Yong, who will give you an army to let you develop your own power? ”

"Wang Shichong, you told me before that your only chance is when the world is in turmoil, and the imperial court asks you to recruit troops by yourself, so that you can take advantage of the opportunity to succeed, do you think you will win such an opportunity for yourself if you take this step this time?"

Wang Shichong's eyes turned from turquoise to blood-red, Yang Xuangan's words were like sharp blades, stabbing the most fearful part of his heart, although he planned this time for a few months, but he was not more than fifty percent sure, but he felt that the opportunity could not be lost, and he gritted his teeth and decided to fight, but after listening to Yang Xuangan's analysis, he suddenly felt that the hero was short of breath, and he had a sense of disillusionment that his life's work had been wasted.

Yang Xuangan saw that Wang Shichong was already a little moved, and continued while the iron was hot: "Wang Shichong, you have always been shrewd, don't do this kind of thing to take advantage of others, even Xue Ju and those people in Guzang City have made preparations with both hands, and they have not fought with all their might, even if you are finished, they can be safe and sound, you can wait for future opportunities, you will not be more stupid than them." ”

Wang Shichong said dejectedly: "That's it, anyway, this plan was not perfect from the beginning, if you Yang Xuangan refused to stand with me, then this matter would probably not succeed." But Yang Xuangan, don't get complacent too early, I won't have anything to lose if I stop now, but do you think that if you protect Yang Guang from the throne, your Yang family will be safe and sound, and even soar? ”

This time, it was Yang Xuangan's turn to be most worried about being mentioned, and he also closed his mouth and stopped talking.

Wang Shichong suddenly regained his usual pride and demeanor, and said: "Yang Xuangan, to be honest with you, I originally had some affection for you, and I didn't want to involve your family in this matter, and the conflict between Chen Guiren and Yang Guang that I arranged had nothing to do with your father. ”

"It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, Yang Guang will actually take the initiative to find your father to communicate secretly! I can't blame it. Chun Fu is my person, and of course I will not miss this kind of opportunity, and I will definitely present it to the emperor. But he didn't summon Yang Yong in anger on the spot, which was beyond my expectations, so this morning Chen Guiren will carry out my next move, and he will definitely force the emperor to order Yang Guang to be abolished again. ”

Yang Xuangan's heart moved when he heard this, he didn't doubt that Wang Shichong had the ability to figure out what happened in Renshou Palace last night, but now his biggest concern became the safety of his family, and he hurriedly asked: "Wang Shichong." What the hell are you going to do? ”

Wang Shichong smiled "hehe": "Anyway, you will know after today, why rush at this time, the emperor will definitely order the abolition of Yang Guang's crown prince." Yang Yong was re-established, as for whether this order can be transmitted to this Daxing, it depends on Liu Shu's ability. ”

Yang Xuangan's heart sank, he knew very well that his family was now tied to Yang Guang's fate. There is no longer any choice. Sweat began to break out on his forehead.

Wang Shichong was even happier when he saw Yang Xuangan's expression, and his voice unconsciously rose: "Yang Xuangan, neither of us has to laugh at anyone, you have ruined my plan, but your Yang family may not be able to be preserved, even if you avoid this incident, with your understanding of Yang Guang." Your family knows so many unsightly things about him, will he let you go of the Yueguo Mansion? ”

"I, Wang Shichong, will not do it this time, and I will wait for another ten years at most. If I don't have the opportunity to put away this ambition in ten years, it's a big deal to leave it to future generations to continue my dream, but what about you? When the time comes, the dignified Hongnong Yang family, whether anyone can survive will have to put a question mark, haha! ”

Yang Xuangan's heart suddenly flashed in his heart, and he laughed: "Wang Shichong, who can say for sure what will happen in the future, do you want to move me to do it with you now?" Don't dream, even if it really confirms what you said in the future, it can only let the people of the world see clearly what kind of tyrant the future emperor is, my Yang family has been flowing for hundreds of years, and I will never be killed completely, besides, in the future, you will avenge our Yang family, and raise troops to punish the tyranny! ”

Wang Shichong's face was swollen and red when he spoke, and he couldn't speak at once, so he could only drink a bowl of wine with hatred.

Yang Xuangan looked at the sun outside, the sun had gradually turned to noon, and he calculated that Yuwenshu's men and horses were almost out of the door at half past seven o'clock, and they should be approaching Renshou Palace at this time. But Wang Shichong continued to drink with himself here, neither attacking nor retreating, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yang Xuangan suddenly thought of what Wang Shichong had just said, and his heart sank, and he said to Wang Shichong: "What do you want to do when you waste time here now?" Waiting for Liu Shu? ”

Wang Shichong's face changed, and he laughed dryly: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you." Yes, although I have given up the plan to attack the East Palace, but I still want to see what kind of result will be in Renshou Palace, Liu Shu is now my last hope to turn the tables, if he can arrive before the time (one o'clock in the afternoon), then Yang Yong can still be saved, on the contrary, today is the day when Yang Guang ascends the throne, and then we will just change into court clothes and go together to wish the new emperor the throne. ”

Yang Xuangan stood up suddenly, grabbed Wang Shichong's hand tightly, his eyes widened, and said sharply: "What did you say?!" If Liu Shu doesn't come, do you want to kill the king?! ”

Wang Shichong gently shook off Yang Xuangan's hand, slowly stood up, patted the dust on his clothes, and said calmly: "After today, Yang Guang and Yang Jian can only live one, if Yang Jian survives, it must be Liu Shu who successfully released Yang Yong." On the other hand, if Yang Guang detains Liu Shu, he will definitely take his father's life! ”

Yang Xuan shook his head in disbelief: "I don't believe it, Wang Shichong, I don't doubt your ability, but Chen Guiren doesn't have the energy to reach the sky, and he can say that the emperor really killed the crown prince who was set up by himself." ”

"If last night's letter doesn't do that, is there anything else you can do? If you really have any other good idea, you still need to wait until today to start? ”

Wang Shichong looked at Yang Xuangan motionlessly, and suddenly he burst out laughing, and after laughing, he simply squatted on the ground, pointing at Yang Xuangan while covering his stomach with his hands, but he couldn't speak, but his dark face was swollen and red because he laughed too fiercely, and it looked like he had changed from a bearded person to Guan Gong all of a sudden.

Although Yang Xuangan didn't know why he suddenly laughed like this, he couldn't think of how to speak, so he could only stand aside and look at Wang Shichong with a suspicious expression.

Wang Shichong laughed on the ground for half a cup of tea before stopping, he slowly stood up, his face gradually regained a strict expression, he said to Yang Xuangan: "I haven't bet for a long time, why don't we bet again?" ”

As soon as Yang Xuangan heard that Wang Shichong was going to bet again, his head became a little big, he lost a game in the desert last time, and he still remembers it vividly, but he thought about it, and suddenly he couldn't swallow this breath again, and wanted to win back a city, so Yang Xuangan suppressed his complicated feelings and opened his mouth coldly: "What are you betting on this time?" ”

The blue mang in Wang Shichong's eyes suddenly flourished: "If you lose, you must be the first to start in the future, how about it?" ”

"Deal!" Yang Xuangan replied without thinking. (To be continued......)
