Jingshi, Daxing Palace.
In the Ganlu Palace, the favorite pair of characters of the former Emperor Yang Jian has been removed and thrown to the side of the corner. 'Clothes and food', the four strong and powerful characters, are now covered with dust, and the new emperor does not like these four words. The place where the four big characters used to hang has now been replaced by a new pair of words.
"Heaven and world, I am the only one." Eight big characters are incomparably public, if you only look at calligraphy from the point of view, these eight words are unrestrained and luxurious, the strokes are continuous, with the pen to frustrate, rigid and soft, ever-changing, elegant, indeed rare good words, there is a kind of crazy boldness. It's just that the meaning of those eight words is more atmospheric. The calligraphy is wonderful, and the eight characters are also good, these eight words are meant to praise the Buddha as the noblest and greatest, but they can be hung here, but they obviously have another meaning.
When he moved from Chang'an Palace to Daxing Palace, Yang Jian personally wrote these four words and hung him in his dormitory. And he has taught the princes here more than once with these four words, Yang Xiu has come to the Ganlu Hall more than once, and every time he comes, he has to listen to the emperor's preaching! Repeatedly, let him always remember these four words again. Again and again, he should be the king, and he should eat and clothe himself. Therefore, since he was small, Yang Xiu hated coming to the Manna Hall very much. I don't like these four words even more. The four words of shuai clothes and food are stored in his heart like a brand, as soon as he sees these four words. He couldn't help but think of the Manna Hall and the lesson of his father. At that time, he was always thinking, although he was the son-in-law, he could be the fourth in line, how could it be his turn to be the emperor in this life, and the way of the king with clothes and food had nothing to do with himself?
But it's also strange to say, the more I don't like those four words, the more deeply those four words will be impressed in my mind. He later fell in love with calligraphy. Originally, he was just taught since he was a child, but later it became a hobby for him. For calligraphy, he studied and practiced hard, and it was a really favorite hobby when he was young, and even later he went to Shuzhong, and this hobby has not been lost. Even now, he has surpassed his father in calligraphy, and his handwriting can be called the first in the royal family. In this regard, not only his father caught up, but even the second brother who was known as the spear of Wencai was not his opponent. Yang Xiu is proficient in calligraphy, and all kinds of calligraphy are extremely proficient, and even created a unique calligraphy font by himself. But his favorite is cursive. Wild grass, eclectic, whatever you want. can let him show his uninhibited temperament.
After killing his father, who was bent on driving himself to the East China Sea to be the king of a desert island, the first thing Yang Xiu did was to come to the Manna Palace. He took down the words that had been pressing on his heart for more than ten years, and threw the words "night clothes and food" into the corner. And then splash the ink. Zhan Xing wrote down the eight characters of the only one in heaven and the world, replaced the clothes and food, and hung them on the wall.
If you can't bear it, then you don't need to endure it anymore.
Yang Xiu has endured it for more than ten years, and among the five brothers, he is the most unpopular. Yang Yong is the eldest son, because he was born a few years early, he is destined to become the prince and the prince, superior to others. The second brother Yang Guang is also very popular with the queen, even the third brother, in his early years, he was also very appreciated by the emperor, not to mention the fifth, he went out of the town in Shuzhong when he was a teenager, and he never left once he went, except for the occasional pilgrimage, he could only stay in that damn place forever. And the fifth Yang Liang, who stayed in Beijing until he was in his twenties, and the children were born before he left Beijing, and he was sealed to Bingzhou, got the old land of Northern Qi, and owned half of the world.
Envy, jealousy, and even hatred.
When that inexplicable Yang Lin appeared, and even won the favor of the emperor and queen all at once, all kinds of rewards, all kinds of favors, not to mention all kinds of promotions, he was actually made the emperor's grandson, and even the emperor actually said to the queen that he would rebel sooner or later, etc., Yang Xiu was really mad. Then, he carefully planned the assassination, but unfortunately in the end, it fell short, and Yang Lin did not die. But fortunately, at least it was successfully planted on Yang Guang's head. When there was chaos in Beijing, the emperor and empress were furious, Yang Guangda shouted injustice, Yang Lin looked frightened, and Yang Xiu was really happy to watch it from the side. No one thought that the assassination was actually planned and instructed by him.
While he was happy, he was dissatisfied and even angry.
Yang Xiu felt that he had been neglected, completely ignored, and no one suspected him at all, because they simply ignored him.
That excitement disappeared for a short time, and Yang Xiu was completely angry.
When the emperor summoned him to Beijing, and said over and over again in front of him how the grandson Yang Lin was so good, how he used his troops like a god to defeat the Turkic army unexpectedly, and then actually proposed to remove him from his post as the governor of Qinzhou, and then seal him off to that Ryukyu Island, he really couldn't bear it anymore. Originally, when the emperor transferred him from Shuzhong to Jingxi to serve as the governor of Qinzhou after the assassination, he still felt that he had been compensated and felt better. But the governor of Qinzhou has not yet sat hot, but the emperor has exempted him, and what is the king of Ryukyu. He felt that he had been deceived, and his transfer to the governor of Qinzhou was simply the emperor's premeditation in advance, in order to transfer him out of the Yizhou base camp, and then suddenly make a move to exile him to a desert island in the East China Sea.
Why?
Why do this to him?
Yang Liang transferred troops to kill Yang Lin, and after the defeat, he was just demoted to South Vietnam, but at least he was still on land, and he was defeated on a desert island in the East China Sea for no reason?
He begged the emperor to retract his will, and sincerely requested, but the emperor was not moved at all, and gave him an ultimatum that he must leave Beijing after three days.
When he walked out of the palace, Yang Xiu shouted in his heart over and over again, it was you who ignored the love between father and son, it was you.
Three days later. Yang Xiu entered Beijing and resigned, and he was in this manna hall. Yang Xiu strangled Yang Jian's neck fiercely, looking at the panic and fear in Yang Jian's eyes, as well as the struggle and even the last look of begging for mercy. watched his face turn red, and finally purple swelled, and then he was unwilling to breathe.
Old fellow, you can go with peace of mind, the Great Sui Empire belongs to me.
Today is the first day of the fifth lunar month, the first court meeting after Yang Xiu killed his father and usurped the throne.
The old emperor never looked down on him, but always regarded him as a reckless prince, brave and unscrupulous. Brutal temperament. Regarding the cruelty of temperament, maybe the emperor was right, but Yang Xiu did not admit that he had courage and no strategy. How beautiful he did against the wind, the old emperor wanted to exile him, but in the end he gave his life, and he became the son of the Great Sui. A month has passed, and instead of destroying himself as some people secretly expected, he has basically taken control of the situation in Gyeonggi. Officials and nobles in the DPRK and China. The guards of the Gyeonggi garrison, and even the local officials of the prefectures and counties of Qinzhou Prefecture in western Beijing, have been killed and set an example for those who dare to stand up, and now Guanzhong is peaceful. Although there must be an undercurrent surging under the seemingly calm river, Yang Xiu thinks that since he can get through the most critical first month, he can solve it better later.
Everyone thought that they had been hunting and playing in Shu for more than ten years. They couldn't be more wrong. The land of Shu is full of barbarians, and the natives rebel at every turn. But he can stay for more than ten years, is it really that simple.
The Daxing Palace has been completely taken over by his soldiers and horses. Everywhere were guards armed with guns and knives.
Yang Xiu sent troops to guard the palace, and brought Yang Yong, Yang Guang, Yang Jun, Yang Mu, Yang Su, Gao Gong, Yang Xiong, Yang Hong and other clans, as well as the families of the generals who went out to the palace. Since the death of the emperor, the Empress Dowager Dugu has been ill, and she refuses to see her son during her illness. But then Yang Xiu sent people to put Yang Guang under house arrest Yang Jun, Yangzhou became self-reliant, Yang Yong succeeded to the throne in Hedong, and then was placed under house arrest by Yang Lin, after the news of Yang Lin's self-appointed regent and superintendent was transmitted to the Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager Dugu collapsed, this proud and powerful woman, she couldn't afford it, she didn't want Yang Jian to have other women, and she was proud that they had five sons and daughters-in-law of one mother, saying that there has always been civil strife in the court, all because of the struggle for the throne, and their five sons and one mother will never have this kind of fratricidal thing. But now, the son killed his father and usurped the throne, imprisoned his mother, and his brother placed his siblings under house arrest, and all kinds of states were a hundred times more tragic than she imagined.
The queen can't think about it, she refuses to take medicine, Yang Xiu has no pressure, this is the reality, and the reality is cruel, if you can't accept it, there is no way. And Yang Xiu felt that the Queen Mother was very strange, how ruthless she was at the beginning, snatching the throne of her daughter's nephew, and killing her nephew's whole family without being soft by half a point, why when it was her family's turn, she couldn't figure it out.
Today is the first big court meeting after ascending the throne, Yang Xiu attaches great importance to it, although Yang Guangyang is called the emperor, Yang Yong Taiyuan is called the emperor, each according to hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but Yang Xiu is not afraid at all. Their families are in their own hands, and even their soldiers' families are in their own hands, and it is they who should be feared instead of themselves.
Yang Xiu glanced at the words on the corner of the wall again, and then looked up at the eight words on the wall, smiled with satisfaction, got up and walked forward.
The palace is full of heavily armed guards, most of these people are private soldiers that he has secretly recruited and trained over the years, don't think that only Yang Yong and Yang Guang will recruit private soldiers, he will too. In Yizhou for more than ten years, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and he is neither short of money nor soldiers. In the land of Yizhou, there are a lot of indigenous barbarians, and the natives of these tribes are not above the household registration of the Great Sui, as long as they have money, they can recruit as much as they want. Moreover, the natives of the Southwest Yi tribe are fierce and unusually brave. In the past month, he had recruited all the soldiers and horses in the private army camps scattered all over the country, and in addition, he had recruited many tribal warriors from those tribes at great expense, and these hired tribal warriors who had been paid for were expensive, but he felt loyal and reliable.
When Yang Lin walked into the Daxing Palace, the hall was already full of people, and even stood outside the hall.
All the high-ranking officials in Beijing, whether they were high-ranking officials or knights and honorable people, were summoned to participate in this grand court meeting, which was attended by more than 3,000 people.
Yang Xiu went to the palace.
The ministers stood facing each other in two rows, civil and military.
Drums played.
Twelve sturdy men walked to the front of the imperial steps in the hall, and all of them waved the Jing whip in their hands and skillfully pumped into the air, throwing a huge crisp sound in the air, and after the twelve people waved three whips in a row, the drum music stopped.
The hundred officials began to turn around and face the emperor, the emperor sat on the dragon chair, the hundred officials knelt and bowed, and the mountain shouted long live.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Zhong Aiqing, flat!" Yang Xiu watched with satisfaction as everyone surrendered and bowed, with infinite joy in his heart, a smile on his face, and a stretch of his hand.
Xue Guogong, Taibao, and Sun Hong, the general of the Left Guard, who were dressed in shiny mirror armor, did not stand on duty, but led one hundred and eight eagle guards who were also wearing majestic mirror armor to stand in the hall. These one hundred and eight Eagle Yangwei are roughly similar to the original Qianniu Guard, but Yang Xiu is not a meritorious disciple, but uses all barbarian warriors, who have followed him for many years. The empress's elder brother, Sun Hong, was nominally the commander of this guard, but in reality, this guard only obeyed his orders. In addition to the one hundred and eight eagle guards, there are also three thousand tiger and leopard guards, all of whom are also barbarians.
Yang Xiu was dressed in a dragon robe, but he also wore a sword at his waist.
Sitting on the dragon chair, he looked around the hall, swept from the ministers, smiled, and then spoke: "Your Majesty suddenly had an old illness, and the dying edict was succeeded by me, and then the crown prince Yang Yong, the grandson Yang Lin and the rebel minister Yang Guang ignored the edict of the previous emperor, and each supported the army outside and rebelled, falsely claiming to be the Son of Heaven, setting up a puppet dynasty, appointing puppet officials, and wanting to confront the imperial court, this is tolerable, which is unbearable." Meritorious deeds should be rewarded, and those who have done so will be punished, and those who rebel will be severely punished, which is the responsibility of the lord of man. Shangshu's left servant shot Su Wei, what is the resolution of the three provinces to deal with the opposition party! ”
Su Wei got up, this important minister of the former emperor, as early as the beginning of the founding of the country, was already the most appreciated and relied on minister in the imperial court, and he had already been a servant, very capable, but he was repeatedly dismissed for reasons such as forming a party, and he had several ups and downs. In general, in Yang Xiu's eyes, Su Wei's ability to govern the world is not doubtful, but this person's character is a little unreliable, sleek and timid but greedy, and he loves power. However, such a person is exactly what Yang Xiu needs now, at the beginning of his ascension, he officially awarded Su Wei, the Duke of Piguo, as the left servant of Shangshu and the Taifu, and added the three divisions of the Fuyi and the five thousand households in the city. got such an important task from Yang Xiu, but Su Wei refused to accept it at first, just like before Yang Jian usurped the Northern Zhou, Su Wei, who was in Yang Jian's mansion, immediately ran back to his hometown after hearing the news about the usurpation of Zhou. Later, Yang insisted on being the emperor and summoned Su Wei to the court, but he came again. Because of his talent, the emperor trusted him very much, and soon let him and Gao Gong take charge of the government, serving as Taichangqing, Prince Shaobao, and concurrently serving as Dali Qing, Jing Zhaoyin, Yushi Dafu and other important positions, one person held many important positions, but refused to recommend others to replace, it can be said that he is quite greedy for power. However, Su Wei loves power, but he is timid, he does not believe in the succession of Yang Xiu after the emperor's edict, and seeing that the crown prince and King Jin are all with heavy troops, Su Wei does not want to do anything with Yang Xiu. Yang Xiu was also simple, and sent his own tiger and leopard guards into the Piguo Mansion, regardless of 3721, he killed more than a dozen subordinates first, and then Su Wei immediately accepted the position given by Yang Xiu very happily. came out to serve as the prime minister of Yang Xiuchao and became the head of the hundred officials.
At this time, Su Wei, who was already sixty-five years old, was gorgeously dressed, with a purple robe and a beam crown, a goldfish bag, and an ivory wat in his hand, and stepped forward to speak. Su Wei represented the three provinces and the emperor in addition to the prime minister, and drafted a letter to order the rebels in Taiyuan and Yangzhou, ordering them to immediately disband their soldiers and horses, and enter the pilgrimage to meet the emperor.
Those who were ordered to surrender by Su Wei included a group of rebels from the two puppet dynasties of Taiyuan Puppet Dynasty and Yangzhou Puppet Dynasty, in addition to Yang Su and Shi Wansui, who had always refused to express their position. (To be continued......) R1292
