At the beginning of June, Yuan Hongsi marched eastward, leading an army of 100,000 to surround Chang'an City, and there were still 70,000 defenders in Chang'an City.

The news of the Yuan family's rebellion quickly spread to the capital, which shook the capital, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue, who stayed in the capital, immediately sent Qu Tutong, the general of Zuotunwei, to lead 40,000 elite soldiers into Guanzhong to rescue Chang'an, Yang Dong issued a statement, Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, was still imprisoned in the palace, and the king of Shu was set up by the Yuan family as a fake.

Fan Zigai, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs who stayed in the capital, ordered the arrest of the Yuan clan who were still in the capital, a team of soldiers ran in the capital, the wind in the capital was loud, a big chaos, affected by the Yuan rebellion, the price of grain skyrocketed, and the rice was 800 yuan, and the capital was once again set off a wave of rice grabbing.

Chongye Fang, Yang Yuanqing's mansion, stationed in the east of the mansion, the five hundred soldiers sent to protect and monitor Yang Yuanqing's family were temporarily evacuated because of the emergency situation, and only two hundred soldiers remained, they were still divided into three teams, patrolling around Yang Yuanqing's mansion day and night.

At night, a medium-sized boat of 500 stones is moored in the river behind Yangfu, the boat is brightly lit, the warbler Yanyan, this is actually a flower boat, in the capital, this kind of flower boat is more common, walking in various squares, especially in Luoshui more, some are water brothels, some are music shops, some are selling wine boats, this flower boat hangs a string of blue lanterns high on the flagpole, indicating that this is a music boat.

The boat stopped on the other side of the river, and several women were taking off their lanterns, indicating that they had ceased business and were resting here for the night.

The soldiers on patrol were not interested in the music fang, and did not ask much, and the music boat stopped quietly at the river river, and the lights went out one by one, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

Hai Shizheng, this ship slowly approached the river on this side of the Yang Mansion, and when a team of patrol soldiers walked by, the back door of the Yang Mansion opened, Pei Minqiu came out quickly with the child in her arms, Zhang Chuchen and others followed closely behind, she moved quickly, beckoned everyone to run to the river, they got on the boat, and the gate was closed again, as if nothing had happened.

The family changed to a thousand-stone grain ship in Luoshui, and the official ship had a pass, passed through the surface checkpoints, and left the capital smoothly.

At this time, Yang Xuangan of Dongping County still did not move.

In the early morning, a round of red sun rose from the east, pushing away the dazzling clouds, and the sun appeared like a fireball, pouring the fire-like red light on the ocean, trees, Yan Mountain and the entire land, and the endless military camp was also dyed red, and the huge ** city seemed to be burning in the early morning.

Yang Guang's imperial study was also dyed with a layer of magnificent colors, in front of the imperial case, the tireless Emperor of the Great Sui had been dealing with court affairs for nearly half an hour, until the red light shone on the imperial case, disturbing his red pen, he had to stop the pen, stretched a long waist, and the eunuchs hurriedly presented more than a dozen plates of exquisite dim sum to the imperial case like flowing water, and brought tea.

This is Yang Guang's habit, when he put down the pen for the first time, that is the time when he has to eat, although the average family is two meals a day, but the aristocratic family is not restricted, and Yang Guang has to eat six meals a day, his food is very small, only a little bit at a time.

Yang Guang ate a small piece of cake and drank a few sips of ginseng tea, even if his breakfast was over, the eunuchs removed the dim sum plates, and at this time, a eunuch reported, "Your Majesty, General Yuwen and Yu Shilang ask to see!" ”

It is rare for these two people to arrive at the same time, Yang Guang nodded, "Announce that the two of them are here!" ”

After a while, Yu Wenshu and Yu Shiji walked in and bowed together, "See Your Majesty!" Seeing that the two of them looked serious, Yang Guang couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he asked the two: "Two Aiqing, what happened?" ”

Yu Shiji bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, just now the Liaodong Pastoral Supervisor made an urgent report, and Yang Yuanqing sent someone to forcibly take away 70,000 war horses. ”

Yang Guang was also a little strange in his heart, but he still asked quietly: "What's this, the war horses in Liaodong Racecourse were originally used to attack Goryeo, and he took Sancheng, isn't it just right?" ”

"Your Majesty, but he didn't follow the orders of the military department, and he took the horse without permission."

Yang Guang also sensed that something was wrong, and he immediately said to Yu Shiji: "Isn't Hu Sizheng in Liaodong?" He was ordered to investigate the matter thoroughly. ”

Next to him, Yuwen said: "The minister suggested that His Majesty should change someone else to check, if he uses Hu Si, he will definitely not be able to find out anything......"

Yang Guang was stunned, "Yuwen Aiqing, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister sorted out the approval of the Ministry of War last night and found some problems, which are related to Hu Sizheng, and the minister dare not hide it."

Yu Wenshu took out a few copies of the approval documents of the Ministry of War, presented them to Yang Guang with both hands, and a eunuch took them and transferred them to Yang Guang.

"What's the problem?" Yang Guang asked while taking the reply.

"Your Majesty, it's Yang Xuangan of Dongping County who has an accident."

Hearing that it was Yang Xuangan's problem, Yang Guang was in a mood for a while, immediately sat up, and carefully read the approval, he read three approvals in a row, all of which approved the recruitment of 2,000 county soldiers, and the approver signed below, which was Hu Sizheng.

"How many county soldiers were there in Dongping County?"

"Back to Your Majesty, there were only 2,000 people, but now there are 8,000 people."

Yang Guang was suddenly shocked and angry, more than 3,000 county soldiers had to be approved by him, and now Yang Xuangan's county soldiers had reached 8,000, and he didn't know anything.

Yang Guang slapped the table heavily, and said angrily: "Spread the will of the Union, and order Hu Sizheng to come to see the membrane immediately!" ”

Yu Shiji said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the problem is not Hu Sizheng, but Yang Xuangan's 8,000 soldiers and Yang Yuanqing's 70,000 war horses, doesn't Your Majesty think it's a little strange?" ”

Yang Guang closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, then nodded, "Lian is to take precautions, immediately spread the will of Lian, and change the title of Yang Xuangan to Nanyang County Taishou." ”

Yu Wenshu had to say more, at this moment, there was a fierce running sound outside, and a eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty, Chang'an urgently asks for help!" ”

This news shocked all three people in the room, and Yang Guang immediately said: "Come in and report!" ”

A eunuch rushed forward, knelt on the ground, and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, Yuan Hongsi rebelled in Yongxian County, Fufeng County, and established Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, as the emperor, they defeated the Chang'an army, and the king of Chang'an urgently asked for help. ”

This news made Yang Guang happy and surprised, happy that the Yuan family finally rebelled, and he can now strike at the Guanlong nobles mercilessly, and the surprise is how the Yuan family rebelled in Fufeng County, and there is actually Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, isn't Yang Xiu imprisoned in the capital?

"What's going on?"

Yu Wenshu and Yu Shiji looked at each other, and both of them were frightened: "The minister doesn't know!" ”

Yang Guang snorted heavily, at this time he couldn't care about Yang Xuangan's affairs anymore, Yang Guang immediately issued a will, "Spread the will of the Union, the army will return to Zhuo County." ”

The order was issued, the 500,000 army began to pack up the camp tents, preparing to pull out the camp and return to Zhuo County, the camp was busy, at this time the news of Yuan Hong's rebellion was still strictly kept secret, everyone did not know why they wanted to return to Zhuo County, but not to fight Goryeo, it was still exciting.

To the west of the camp was the camp of the ministers, and the camp of Shen Guang, the doctor of Chaosan, was on the edge, and at this time he also received an order to pull out the camp and return to Zhuo County.

This is what Yang Yuanqing has repeatedly instructed Shen Guang, once the holy driver wants to return to Zhuo County, he must be notified immediately.

Shen Guang was anxious, and immediately wrote a note and handed it to a henchman, "Rush to Liaodong immediately and give this note to Manager Yang, hurry!" ”

The henchmen took the order to leave, and Shen Guang let go of his heart and ordered the other subordinates to pack up the camp and return to Zhuo County.

In the imperial study, the express report of the capital also arrived, the express report of the capital was more detailed, and the express newspaper admitted that Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, had escaped from the bag, but the official of the capital immediately issued a statement that the Shu king Yang Xiu set up by the Yuan family was fake, and the real Yang Xiu was still imprisoned in the palace.

This made Yang Guangda admire, Dong'er's decision was very timely and wise, and he must not admit that the other party is the real Yang Xiu, and he must not let the other party have anything legal and reasonable.

At this time, Yang Guang also secretly regretted that he underestimated the influence of the Yuan family's rebellion, and he realized that the Yuan family's rebellion would bring him a lot of trouble.

But regret is useless, Yang Guang will never admit his strategic mistakes, Yang Guang paced back and forth in the imperial study with his hands behind his back, coming from Chang'an, it will take twenty days at the earliest, plus the time for his army to rush back to Zhuojun, this is a month has passed, and I don't know what the situation in Chang'an is.

At this time, Yang Guang suddenly remembered Yang Xuangan's matter, and thought of Yang Yuanqing in Liaodong, Yang Xuangan is a mediocre person, he is not worried, but he is a little afraid of Yang Yuanqing, although it is possible that Yang Yuanqing will not rebel with Yang Xuangan, but with the lesson of the Yuan family, Yang Guang must not let the Yuan family's matter repeat again.

Yang Yuan returned to his seat, immediately wrote two secret decrees, summoned two eunuchs, and handed them the secret decrees and two gold medals.

"You immediately rush to Liaoshui and hand over these two secret decrees to Yang Yichen and Wang Rengong." (To be continued)
