In Yang Chun's opinion, Xiao Baochun is very suspicious. Xiao Baokun's rewards and punishments for his subordinates are not carried out in accordance with the rules of the court at all, and it seems that he is suspected of deliberately being kind to the generals, isn't this cultivating his own people? Only those who have different intentions will exchange public power for personal favors, Xiao Baochun is leaving a way back for himself.

Xiao Baochun's status as the prince of Southern Qi is still attractive among the Han people, and the Guanxi Xingtai has the right to command the generals in Guanxi, and the appeal plus the military power will have the capital to ascend to the heights, if Xiao Baoyin wants to take the opportunity to rebel against Yongzhou and stand on his own, the situation in Guanlong will become more and more out of control.

Therefore, Yang Chun was worried about Xiao Baochun acting on his behalf. Yang Chun returned to his hometown Huayin to recuperate, and it happened that his son Yang Yu was going to enter Beijing to report on his work, so Yang Chun asked him to take the opportunity of meeting the emperor to remind the imperial court that it was okay to use Xiao Baochun, but important officials such as Changshi and Sima should choose reliable people to serve as ministers.

Mix some sand with Xiao Baokun's team, and you can also have a precaution in advance if there is anything, regardless of whether Xiao Baochun has different intentions or not, Yang Chun's construction is a strategy for the country. Yang Yu met with Emperor Xiaoming and Empress Dowager Hu, and reported his father's worries and construction to the two leaders, but both of them thought that the old Yang Chun was worried about the sky, and the Great Wei Dynasty had the grace to reinvent this fallen prince, how could Xiao Baochun rebel?

That's it. The world is becoming more and more out of control, Guanxi and Shandong are full of thieves, the government army has been defeated repeatedly, the people in the world are depressed, and their confidence in the imperial court is getting weaker and weaker. After the defeat of Jingzhou, Xiao Bao's feelings have been very low, he consciously worked for many years, spent a lot of funds, but the war did not improve greatly, Wan Qian ugly slaves are still rampant in Guanzhong, many of the governors and generals who accompanied their westward expedition have died on the battlefield, and the voice of impeachment and questioning in the court is endless. There is always fear and anxiety in the heart.

There is another thing that has always made Xiao Baochun have a pimple in his heart, when the 100,000 army was stationed in Heishui. The imperial court allocated a year's worth of military rations, out of the idea of getting some extra money for the brothers or leaving a way out. He wrote to the court that the military rations were only enough to last for a month, but the officials in charge of distributing the grain and grass made careful calculations and proved that Xiao Baochun was lying. Xiao Baochun also has a lot of eyes and ears in the court.

Therefore, the construction that Yang Chun proposed to the imperial court quickly reached Xiao Baochun's ears through various channels, and he was even more scared in his heart. In fact, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and the two leaders who once had absolute trust in Xiao Baochun were slowly confused. The three of them became tigers, and all of them were golden.

Rumors are flying. made Xiao Baokun's Xingtai Mansion also turbulent. The subordinates of the line are very worried, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, life and death are shared, one is prosperous, one is lost, and some people give Xiao Baochun the idea to let him personally go to Luoyang to ask for guilt, which means that let Xiao Baochun go to the tank alone, in exchange for the safety of the entire platform. Someone said: I can't go to Luoyang, and once I get there, I won't be the meat on someone's board. You can clean up as much as you want.

What if you don't go, wait for the rumors in the court to ferment? Sitting? Some people went on to say: Continue to stay in Guanzhong, make meritorious contributions, and wait until the battle is won. The so-called one handsome covers a hundred ugliness, and the court will naturally not condemn it. Everyone was gossiping and talking, and the stage made Shi Fengjing sneer: If you support the army, you won't return it. The sin is greater. Everyone was silent.

Xiao Baochun thought to himself, when the emperor sent him to pass through the Guanzhong, he was the only one who was Han among the three-way commanders. Generally, the main general of the imperial court is either the clan or the Daibei noble, and handing over the military power to himself shows that the imperial court is at ease with itself. It's trust, and at that time, I was grateful in my heart.

Yang Chun slandered himself for plotting to rebel, in fact, I really don't mean to rebel, as for being kind to the soldiers, it's just a means to lead the troops by himself, otherwise, who among the soldiers is willing to die for themselves?

Expecting the imperial court to reward him is simply unreliable. However, he was far away in Guanzhong, and the changes in the court were too great, the queen mother actually came back, and Yuancha and his gang completely collapsed. You must know that you have made a contribution to being able to be the commander of Yuancha. What was the attitude of the imperial court?

Will you let me go? After thinking about it, Xiao Baochun decided to send his subordinate Zhou Huida to Beijing, first, to listen to the movements of the court, and second, to communicate with Guò to eliminate misunderstandings. Zhou Huida is gone.

Xue Xiao, the general of the Hussars, announced that he was on leave, this is a real master, he has already seen that Xiao Baochun has no choice, and he plans for himself, how can he be willing to wade into troubled waters? Xue Xiaotong returned to his hometown of Hedong. Xue Xiaotong saw it very accurately. Soon, the imperial court sent Li Daoyuan, the lieutenant of the imperial history, as the ambassador of Guanzhong, to the army to comfort him.

Li Daoyuan is a famous geographer in history, because he wrote a famous book "Notes on the Water Classic" and left a name for the ages, few people know that as the supervisor of the imperial court, his other side is strict and upright law enforcement, and he is deeply hated by those corrupt princes and nobles.

Runan Wang Yuanyue belongs to the bisexual, both men and women, one of his good friends Qiu Nian relied on the mountain of Yuanyue to do evil, and did not want to commit it in the hands of Li Daoyuan, Li Daoyuan put him on death row. Yuan Yue was anxious, and even brought out the Empress Dowager Hu to intercede, and the Empress Dowager Hu issued a letter of pardon, who knew that Li Daoyuan actually ignored Yi Zhi, not only calmly punished Qiu Nianming, but also sued Yuan Yue with a twist.

Yuan Yue hated Li Daoyuan for this reason, and always tried every means to kill him. The opportunity came, Xiao Baokun's anti-state has been revealed, Yuan Yue said that the minister in charge Yuan Hui recommended Li Daoyuan to Guanzhong to comfort the generals of the Western Expedition, he knew that with Li Daoyuan's character, as long as he went, there would be no good results, maybe it would stimulate Xiao Baokun to change, once Xiao Baochun really wanted to rebel and make trouble, the first person to open the knife was the minister of the imperial court, this trick is called borrowing a knife to kill. Li Daoyuan is on the road.

Sending a fierce man like Li Daoyuan, Xiao Baochun thought that the imperial court was going to do something to himself. What to do? Make up your mind, strike first, and kill Li Daoyuan.

There was a bloody case in Yinpanyi, according to the official information, from the on-site investigation, there were thieves who sneaked into the post station to seek money and kill him, unfortunately, it was the imperial envoy Li Daoyuan who was killed by the thieves. The minister was killed, the case was stabbed to the sky, and the murder occurred in the jurisdiction of Yongzhou, Xiao Baokun, as the supreme administrator of Yongzhou, must give an explanation to the imperial court.

As a result, Xiao Baochun reported the relevant case of the thief's entry into the house to seek money and murder, and defended himself against the claim that someone falsely claimed that he had killed the imperial court ambassador, and at the same time denounced Yang Chun's father and son for making small moves behind his back to slander himself. After the movement is presented. It is as straight as a stone sinking into the sea, and the days pass day by day. There was no response from the imperial court.

Although there is no news that can be regarded as good news, Xiao Baochun, who is a thief at this time, is like a frightened bird. The more the court turned a blind eye to it, the more he felt murderous, and lived in fear all day long. He believed that one day, the imperial envoy who took his life would suddenly appear.

The soldiers on the left and right persuaded Xiao Baochun to make a decision as soon as possible, but while hesitating, Xiao Baochun finally turned his heart to the flag and rebelled and became the emperor, officially announcing his break with the Great Wei Dynasty. In fact, Xiao Baochun was really helpless to do this. To put it mildly, this is the result of suspicion up and down.

If Xiao Baochun had the idea of rebellion from the beginning, how could he condone his subordinates to kill and plunder the people, if he wanted to win the support of the people, he first had to clean up the hearts of the people, but Xiao Baokun's approach was not as good as the rebels, which Wei Langen saw very clearly. Yang Chun couldn't get used to Xiao Baochun's style. The two have different styles of acting, and the different ways of doing things do not mean that they are disloyal to the court.

in the Guanzhong area. Xiao Baochun's royal status of the Qi Dynasty had no appeal at all, and with the replacement of the Southern Dynasty, the influence of the Jin Dynasty in the Chang'an region had long since disappeared. The people of Guanzhong were accustomed to the rule of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Anyway, it doesn't matter who leads. The common people should farm the land, and the sheep should be herded. Gone are the days when the people welcomed the people during the Northern Expedition of the Jin Army, and the people in Guanzhong have long been heartbroken by the Han regime. In addition to saving his life, Xiao Baochun really couldn't find a reason to rebel. However, once he became emperor, Xiao Baochun actually put himself in an embattled position

The Liang Dynasty in the south had a common enmity with him, and the Northern Wei Dynasty naturally would not tolerate his betrayal, and the Gaoping rebels who had fought with him for three years would not bow down.

Therefore, if Xiao Baochun does not rebel, he is waiting for death, and rebellion is tantamount to looking for death. This point is even seen very clearly by the junior officer in the army, the general Wang Meng, Wang Meng was born in a wealthy family in Wuchuan, and once rebelled with the six Han Baling, and after the failure of Baling, he was exiled in Zhongshan, and responded to the call of the imperial court to go to the Kansai battlefield to join Xiao Baochun's Western Expeditionary Army. Because he saw through the prospect of Xiao Baochun becoming emperor, Wang Meng quietly left the army and hid among the people, adding that Wang Meng was Yuwentai's uncle.

Among the soldiers and horses that Xiao Baochun originally controlled, Cui Mo and Yi Wengsheng had died on the battlefield, Lu Zuqian chose to continue to serve the new dynasty, and Hou Zhongde, the head of the armed forces of the Yongzhou Hao clan, became a staunch supporter of Xiao Baokun. Chang'an City changed the sky, the banner of the Great Wei was put down, replaced by the banner of the Great Qi, Xiao Baochun was born in the royal family of the Qi Dynasty, and the knight of the Great Wei was the king of Qi, so the natural country name of the emperor continued to be called the Qi Dynasty, changed the name of the year to Longxu, set up a hundred officials, and waited until the auspicious day of the zodiac to hold the founding ceremony.

The new emperor who has not been very steady, specially ordered someone to find Li Shunxing, a native of Duling, to calculate the fortune for himself, Li Shunxing is a celebrity in Chang'an, legend has it that he often wears a single coat and walks barefoot on the ice in the middle of winter, and from time to time he also plunges into the icy river water for winter swimming, and what is more strange is that some of the future things he said are often effective. Xiao Baochun asked: How many years can I be the son of heaven?

Li Shunxing, who was wearing a Taoist hat and was full of wine, said casually: The Son of Heaven, there are a hundred years of Heaven, a ten-year Son of Heaven, a one-year Son of Heaven, and a Hundred Days of Heaven, I can't say for sure.

Xiao Baochun laughed: There is still a 100-day son of heaven! Just when everyone was busy with the opening of the new dynasty, Su Zhan, who was born in the Guanzhong clan, happened to be sick, Xiao Baochun did not forget his old subordinates, Su Zhan is a rare talent, and it is very important to have the support of such a person to really do a career.

Su Zhan's mother and brother opened the mansion Jiang Jian acted as a lobbyist on the orders of Emperor Xiao, Jiang Jian was deeply favored by Xiao Baochun and was able to consult the military aircraft, so he has always regarded Xiao Baochun as a reborn parent, and he will fight wherever Xiao Baochun points out. Jiang Jian saw his cousin and conveyed Xiao Baochun's words: Xiao Yan in the south hates me to the core, and Yuan Xiao was assigned by Xiao Yan to arrest me. The imperial court sent Li Daoyuan again, everyone knows the situation of this person, and I don't know what his idea is.

I can't sit still, I plan for my own life, this courtier of Dawei can't be it. I am willing to face the honor and disgrace of life and death with you in the future.

Su Zhan didn't say a word after listening to Jiang Jian, but just cried loudly. Jiang Jian persuaded for a while: What is my brother crying for, is there anything you can't say well? Su Zhan wiped his tears and said: More than 100 members of my family are about to be slaughtered, can I not cry? Jiang Jian still doesn't understand, what is this, is my brother stupid?

Su Zhan said slowly: You send me a message to the King of Qi. The king of Qi defected to our dynasty with nothing, such as a poor bird in the forest. It's all up to the imperial court to give wings, and the imperial court is not thin on you. How difficult it is for the imperial court now. Not only will you not be able to repay them well, but you will take advantage of the danger of others, listen to the provocation of those who have no resourcefulness, and plan to defend the pass with weak soldiers.

Although there are many problems in the court now, it has not yet reached the time of immediate destruction, I saw the end of the defeat of the king, and I, Su Zhan, decided that I could not take the lives of more than 100 members of the whole family to be buried with the king. Jiang Jian saw that Su Zhan had made up his mind, so he had to return to his life alone.

Xiao Baochun has always been friendly with Su Zhan, and the relationship between the two has long gone beyond the scope of superiors and subordinates. Therefore, Xiao Baochun thought that Su Zhan refused to help him because he did not communicate with him before he rebelled, and he was also a member of the martial arts Su family, so Su Rang happily accepted his appointment. So Xiao Baochun once again let people pass the word: I had to do it as a last resort to save my life, so I didn't discuss it with you first, mainly because I was afraid that you would hit my feelings. Su Zhan replied: Those who achieve great things must have the help of the world's geniuses, look at who are the people around you?

However, some gamblers in Chang'an gamble on the world and their lives, how can they succeed? I don't mean anything else, I just want to send my old bones back home. Be able to see your ancestors.

The Su family belongs to a famous family in Guanzhong, and it can be traced back to Su Ze in the Three Kingdoms period.

Will Xiao Baoyin let Su Zhan go?

Xiao Baochun has always had great respect for Su Zhan. Different ways do not conspire with each other, people have their own aspirations, forget it. So I didn't embarrass him, and let him go back to his hometown martial arts. It turns out. Su Zhan has a vision, later. And Jiang Jian, who is also talented, was envied because he was valued by Xiao Baokun, and took the opportunity to take revenge and kill the people of the city when Xiao Baochun was defeated.

When the news of Xiao Baochun's rebellion reached Luoyang, Zhou Huida, the special envoy of the Guanxi Xingtai, was still in the capital, and there was a division that planned to take him down for questioning, but Zhou Huida heard the news and fled immediately. When Zhou Huida passed through Tongguan, he met his friend Yang Kan, who thought that Xiao Baochu's rebellion was clear and persuaded him not to do anything like a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

Zhou Huida is very confident: It was because I was not around that King Xiao was misled by others to rebel, and I came back to persuade him to change his mind. Yang Kan shook his head, he didn't embarrass his friends, so Zhou Huida crossed Tongguan and met Xiao Baokun.

However, at this time, Xiao Baochun is already difficult to ride a tiger, how can he be willing to change his ways? Zhou Huida, a faithful person, saw that the matter had come to this point, and couldn't bear to leave the lord alone, so he had to stay and live and die with Xiao Baochun, who took him as a scholar to deal with clerical matters.

Xiao Baochun took Chang'an as the center and sent three people to attack the neighboring states and counties. Xiao Qi's army surrounded Huazhou, and the heroes of Hedong on the other side responded one after another, Xue Fengxian, a Zhengping person, rebelled against Dongyongzhou, and Longmen Town occupied Puban with Xue Xiuyi of Hedong and proclaimed himself General Huang Yue. Xiao Qi's army Guo Zihui attacked Tongguan, and then marched to Shangluo.

Dong Shaozong, the assassin of Luozhou, is good at appeasing the people, and usually uses small favors or something to his subordinates, so he is very loved and has a high reputation in Shangluowei. After Xiao Baochun rebelled, Dong Shaozong immediately sent a letter to the imperial court, expressing his willingness to bring 3,000 blind people to eat Shuzi.

Emperor Xiaoming was a little confused after receiving the book, blind? Blind Ba people? Can a blind man fight? Or Xu Su solved the emperor's doubts, it turned out that the ancestors of the Ba people and the Shu people were from the current Sichuan area, the people of Bashu were fierce and good at fighting, so after the Ping Shu, the Bashu Hao clan was resettled by the imperial court in a different place, Shangluo is the Ba people gathering area, and Chang'an and Tongguan gathered a lot of Shu people, Shangluo County Shouquan Enterprise from the Ba people Hao family, was appointed as a county commander at the age of twelve.

The Ba people are fierce and brave, and they never know what they are afraid of when they fight, but they just charge forward like a blind man, so they are called "blind people". After Xiao Baokun's rebellion, the Shu people near Chang'an responded positively, so Xiao Baokun's army took the Shu people as the main force.

Therefore, Dong Shaozong let go of such cruel words. Emperor Xiaoming laughed, and immediately gave instructions! Without waiting for Dong Shaozong to send troops, the scouts came to report the attack of the Chang'an army. Dong Shaozong immediately ordered the general Quan Qi to bring 3,000 Quan family soldiers to meet the Qi army, the two sides fought for several days, and more than 20 people were killed in the Quanjia family's soldiers, but Guo Zihui could not advance half a step, so he had to retreat to Tongguan.

Shangluo is a gateway to Chang'an, there are three roads to enter Guanzhong in the east of the country, Tongguan, Huazhou, Shangluo, Tongguan, Huazhou has been in the bag, Xiao Baochun is unwilling to take Shangluo, so he sent more than 10,000 troops to the green mud again, inducing the local Ba people to plot Shangluo, Shangluo surnamed Quan, many people in Duzhong secretly responded.

Dong Shaozong and Quan Qi decisively launched an attack on the two surnamed aliens, and the children of the second surname dispersed, Xiao Baochun lost his internal response, and also saw the skills of Dong and Quan, and never dared to fight the idea of Luozhou again. For Xiao Baokun's rebellion, the Luoyang government attached great importance to it, and reacted quickly, and Empress Dowager Hu reactivated the eldest grandson Zhi, who was dismissed after the failure of the Northern Expedition, to go to the west of Taiwan to fight.

The eldest grandson has been recuperating at home recently because of the sores on his back, as soon as the imperial edict arrived, he immediately led the iron children into the court to resign, the eldest grandson's sores were not healed, and his son eldest grandson Yan was suffering from foot disease and was on crutches, this situation made the courtiers greatly moved, Empress Dowager Hu choked up and said: Aiqing is sick, I really don't want to work for you, but besides you, who to send I can rest assured?

Seeing that the Queen Mother was so emotional, the eldest grandson replied excitedly: After death, I dare not not serve. Shang Shufu shot Yuan Shun and said to the people left and right: When the country is in danger, the sick go on the expedition, we are really ashamed. Yang Kan, who escaped back from Tongguan, was appointed as the left of the line, speaking of which Yang Kan is still the old subordinate of the eldest grandson, Yang Kan was born in a famous family, conceited as a young man, and he was not willing to come out to be an official until he was thirty years old.

At this time, a young man with a weak crown went to the imperial court to ask for a fight, the young man came from the wealthy Wei family in Guanzhong, the famous uncle Yuzi Xiaokuan, and the son of Wei Xu, the commander of Wuwei County. Of course, the eldest grandson knows the importance of gaining the support of the Guanzhong clan, Wei Shuyu was appointed as the commander of the army to go with the army, this trip can be described as fame and fortune for Wei Shuyu, and the most important thing is that he was favored by Yang Kan as the son-in-law of the Yang family, and it is a great honor to be able to climb the Hongnong Yang family.

In the near future, Wei Shuyu will move the world with the name Wei Xiaokuan. Yang Shen, who had followed Yuan Hao's westward expedition, and Huangmen Shilang followed the army staff officer, and after the team was gathered, the eldest grandson set off with his heroic sons. (To be continued......)
