Whoever sat in the position of the Great Turkic Khan, he first had to take care of the interests of the Turks. This will not change with his personal likes and dislikes of the Central Plains, and it will not be affected by his fluent Central Plains official dialect or marrying a Central Plains woman.

The reason is very simple, even a young man like Li Shimin, who has just stepped into the officialdom, can break it down in one word. But the court is known as a wise man, and many important ministers who have dealt with foreign races for half their lives can't understand it. While Xu Zi, Li Shimin, Qu Tutong and others were trying their best to weaken the strength of the Turks, the important ministers around Yang Guang were also busy. What they are busy with is not how to organize soldiers and horses to pursue the victory and seek justice for the people of Biansai. It was how to commend the Gutoru Khan in the name of the imperial court. criticized him for his reckless behavior of besieging the Holy Driver; He also praised him for his ability to correct his mistakes and take the initiative to persuade him to withdraw his troops.

This cannot be said too seriously, so as not to hurt the heart of the Bone Tuoru Khan. But it can't be said too lightly, otherwise the Gutoru Khan will not be aware of the majesty of His Majesty the Emperor. Therefore, over a certain wording of the holy decree, the ministers quarreled endlessly. At the same time, he didn't forget to look at Yang Guang's face and take the opportunity to express his loyalty to the emperor.

"This time the Turkic Khan abandoned the dark and turned to the light, thanks to His Majesty's benevolence. Even if it is a barbarian outside, it is also inscribed on the inside. The internal history of the squire was in charge of the government, and Yu Shiji arched his hand upward, correcting everyone's discussion to the "correct" range. He had not changed his clothes for many days, and there was a large visible stain on his official robe. It was the blood of a soldier who had died to protect him, and it had been blown a little old by the wind, so it was easy to forget.

"The seal sent by Gutoru Khan is very deferential to His Majesty. All the Hu in the east said that they had seen the mighty heaven, and swore that they would always be my Great Sui vassals. Seeing Yu Shiji's sycophant slapping, Pei Ju, another Huangmen servant who participated in the government, was not far behind. If someone holds him accountable for "putting the Holy Monarch in danger", even if he can defend himself, he will not be able to escape the fate of being stripped of his official hat. So now, while His Majesty is still happy, he wants to get his hands on the errand of comforting Dong Sai Zhuhu. After hiding outside for a year and a half, the money will not be lost, and when he comes back, the emperor and everyone have forgotten the cause of the disaster.

"Your Majesty Tianwei, let Xiao Xiao look far away!" In the prefectural office, which was temporarily used as a meeting place, several ministers bowed their hands together. The sound of patting the sycophants shook the curtain, and even the autumn insects, who only had the last few days to live, were ashamed to hear it, and quietly closed their mouths.

"Hey, it's all together, and the soldiers are working hard. What does it have to do with my virtues! Yang Guang waved his hand vigorously, interrupting everyone's flattery. His eyes were still red and swollen, and he didn't know if it was because he had stayed up too late or because he had just cried. But judging by the expression on his face, His Majesty the Emperor, who had almost become a Turkic herdsman, was clearly pleased with the current result. Knowing that the courtiers were patting on the back, he didn't want to break it. After a little modesty, he focused his discussion on the reward for Gutoru.

"The holy decree doesn't have to be too complicated to write, Gu Toru is a Turk, and he probably can't understand the text if it's too complicated!" As the monarch of a great country, Yang Guang's words were very much in line with the requirements of the lord of magnanimity in the eyes of the Confucian scholars. "Yu Qing, this holy decree will be written by you. Bone Toru is still in a hurry to go back to the outside of the plug to clean up the mess, so don't let him wait too long! ”

"Weichen Ling, thank Your Majesty for your trust!" Yu Shiji came out of the ranks, bowed down, and thanked Yang Guang for his attention. At the same time, he didn't want to miss an opportunity to make a fortune. The messenger sent into the city overnight was the first to find his temporary residence, and in addition to paying allegiance to the imperial court, he also expressed a small "respect" to Lord Yu.

Forty pearls are said to be cut only in the belly of a swan in the far north, and each one is the size of a thumb. Ambilight, without the slightest fetish. has been respected so deeply by others, if he can't even meet the other party's small request, it is really insulting to his name as a capable minister of Yu Shiji. Therefore, after a little silence, the Great Sui Neishi Shilang was in charge of the court and the lord Yu started again: "The minister will write it immediately, but the minister is not talented enough, and he is afraid of hurting the country." Therefore, after writing it, I would like to ask Your Majesty to correct it. In addition, the minister thought that since Gu Tuolu had sworn allegiance to the Great Sui, my Great Sui should correct his name and recall the expeditionary division, so that His Majesty would feel benevolent and change his mind from now on, and never rebel again! ”

The minister seconded Lord Yu's words. I am willing to go to the camp of Gutuolu to read the holy decree and raise my great Sui Tianwei! Pei Ju's "respect" was no less than that of Yu Shiji, and he strode out of the queue and said good things for Ashina Bone Tuolu with the other party.

Ashina Bone Tuolu bought two promises from Yu Shiji for the price of forty pearls. First, he hoped that the Great Sui would make himself the Eastern Khan as the Eastern Khan, as he had promised to Shibi Khan's younger brother Ashina, and that his status would be equal to that of Shibi Khan. Second, he hoped that the Great Sui Emperor would issue an order to recall the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry who had been killed in the depths of the grassland, and not let his people pay the price for this southern expedition.

Yang Guang, who was high above, straightened his waist suddenly, his face full of surprise. He heard the advice of Yu and Pei clearly, but what he didn't understand was when the Great Sui soldiers and horses had already entered Gu Tolu's lair? If Gu Toru only remembered to be loyal to the court when his nest was not in danger, his loyalty would have to be discounted in half first. Secondly, who used this subtle trick to encircle Wei and save Zhao also made Yang Guang very curious.

"The minister does not agree with Lord Yu's suggestion!" Without waiting for Yang Guang to ask, the chief manager of the water division came out to protect the children, "According to Weichen's opinion, the reason why Gu Tuolu asked to surrender was forced by the situation, not out of his own heart. Since my Great Sui soldiers and horses have arrived outside the Saiwai, they should plow the court and sweep the caves. Let all the Hu people of this southern expedition remember the lesson! ”

"The old minister agrees with the general's suggestion!" Xu Guo Gongyu, who has always been in the same boat as Laihu Er, Wenshu didn't know what was crazy today, so he stepped forward quickly and agreed.

Yu Wenshu's prestige among military generals is far beyond Pei and Yu. As soon as his words fell, a large number of old generals immediately stood up and advised Yang Guang not to agree to any conditions for Gu Tulu. Although the other party repented at the last moment, it was at most worth it. His repentance must not be the reason for him to forget his past mistakes.

Doctor Yu Shi was in charge of the government Pei Yun found that his brother was lonely, looked up and looked around, and coughed lightly. Immediately, the scholars of the third and fourth secretaries of the province heard the voice, strode forward, and had a-for-tat debate with Yu Wenshu and Lai Hu'er. They are all famous Confucians supported by Yang Guang's heavy money, and they speak without quoting scriptures. Bo Gu talked about the present, righteousness and strictness, and for a time he actually argued with the old generals without distinguishing between victory and defeat.

"My Great Sui is the kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, and there should be a broad and tolerant wind." Kong Yingda, a secretary bachelor, was full of compassion, as if he had seen with his own eyes the enemy's gratitude for the kindness of the Great Sui court, "Mencius said, the benevolent are invincible. When he took away his people, he separated his wife. Your Majesty will remember the hardships of his people's livelihood and forgive his sins, and his people will remember His Majesty's kindness and turn away from his king. When the peace agreement is completed, the chieftain will regret it, and his people will not dare to respond. If so, I don't need a single soldier to garrison the Great Sui Border Fortress, and it is as solid as a Jincheng soup pool! ”

"Dare to ask Master Kong, how can the people know the kindness of His Majesty the Great Sui if they can't understand the language of the Central Plains?" Laihu'er held back the anger in his stomach and asked loudly.

"Indoctrination, this shows the importance of indoctrination! Only the words of the ancient saints are regarded as the supreme in the world. If it is not more than ten years, then the outer land is also the Central Plains......." Secretary Bachelor Lu Deming was prepared early and took Kong Yingda's words to continue to spread the teachings of the sage.

"Fuck your grandma's shit!" Yuwen Shu is not as good as Laihu'er, he is used to being domineering, even in front of Yang Guang, he will not be restrained. "If education is important, why don't you two go to educate Yang Xuangan. He likes you the most, why is His Majesty fighting in front, and he stabs him in the back? ”

The first emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty did not like Confucianism, so Confucianism had little influence on the government before Yang Guang ascended the throne. After Yang Guang ascended the throne, in order to show his reputation for erudition and talent, he repaired the museum and revitalized Confucianism, so Confucianism came from far and near. Kong Yingda and Lu Deming are among the leaders. The two of them are not only deeply appreciated by Yang Guang, but also have close contacts with Yang Xuangan and Li Mi, who are known as talented people. Especially Kong Yingda, who offended other Confucian scholars because of his excessive sharpness, was almost assassinated, but thanks to Yang Xuangan who came forward to save him, he escaped. Later, Yang Xuangan and Li Mi rebelled, and although Kong, Lu and other bachelors were not investigated, their image was also greatly damaged. Except for Pei Yun, who occasionally used them as footwipes, the other courtiers, whether they were greedy or incorruptible, did not want to be with them.

Listening to Yu Wenshu mention old things, many ministers who had long seen Kong Yingda and Lu Deming were unpleasant to the eyes of one after another.

"Isn't it easy for Master Lu to talk about education, I've been dating Yang Xuangan for so many years, why haven't you educated him well!"

"Master Kong, it's better to go to Donghu alone and personally promote your ancient sage learning! Let's see if they'll be the same old fists! Everyone was gossiping, and in a blink of an eye, they were thousands of miles away. Yang Guang's face was blue and black after hearing the royal case, and he couldn't wait to jump forward and give each of them a big mouth.

"Your Majesty, the minister impeached Lord Yuwen and roared at the court!" Seeing that Kong Yingda and the others couldn't support it, Doctor Yu Shi had no choice but to go out in person.

"Your Majesty, the minister impeached the Pei brothers for misleading the country!" When did Yu Wenshu suffer a loss, his eyes widened, and Pei Yun was so frightened that he took several steps back one after another.

Seeing that several important ministers were about to quarrel in front of him, Yang Guang had no choice but to temporarily suppress the anger in his heart. "Alright, alright, give me a moment of silence. Which general is out of the jam? Who gave him the order? Where are you now? What about the winners? Who of you knows, it's coming! ”

"This!" The ministers looked at each other. Surrounded in a lonely city for more than a month, they had no idea what was going on outside. Even the most well-informed Pei brothers and Yu Shiji only vaguely heard the rumor that the tiger general Luo Yibing had come out of Lu Longsai from the envoys of Ashina Gu Tulu. Where exactly this group of people has arrived and how much damage it has inflicted on the Turks, the Turks themselves don't know, let alone Lord Yu and Master Pei, who sell second-hand news.

"So you don't know anything!" Yang Guang snorted from his nostrils and said with a sneer. "I still think that you love to seek for the country, it turns out that it is all a battle of righteousness!"

"Your Majesty forgives you for your sins!" Everyone in the argument was dumbfounded, and one by one they bowed down one after another, not daring to raise their heads. After a while, hearing the wheezing sound in front of him, Yu Shiji wiped his cold sweat and replied in a very small voice: "As soon as the minister received the news of the Turkic withdrawal, he sent people out of the city to inquire, but before the news from outside was sent back, the envoy of Gu Tuolu arrived. The minister was afraid that the important matter would be delayed, so he hurried to see His Majesty......."

"The ministers are not well prepared, I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins!" Everyone had already figured out Yang Guang's temper and blamed themselves in unison!

The Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military are all like this, and Yang Guang doesn't know who he should hold accountable. With a long sigh, he said, "Scribe Xuanyu come in." After Yu Qing went down, he continued to write a message to comfort Ashina Gu Tolu. As for the canonization and withdrawal of troops, it will not be too late to discuss it when I have figured out the situation! ”

"Yes!" The ministers responded. Although he was still very unwilling, he had to put the controversy aside for the time being.

When the others had returned to their positions, the lieutenant went out to announce the decree, ordering someone to call in the Yuwen Shi who was on duty at the head of the city, and His Majesty would ask him about the specific military situation in the outside world.

Exhausted, the scholar didn't know exactly what was going on in the outside world, but his words were at least closer to the truth than the others. As far as he knew, the Turkic withdrawal began in the middle of the night, followed by an emissary from the southern gate asking for peace. According to the preliminary news sent back by the scouts, it is speculated that it is because of the large number of soldiers and horses of King Qin, who has arrived one after another, and Shibi Khan has lost the certainty of victory, so he has to choose to retreat with the whole division. Of course, the prestige of the Great Sui Emperor and the advice of Ashina Gu Tulu and others also played a very big role in it.

"As for those who go out of the East Sai, it is my Great Sui Tiger Iron Cavalry." Yu Wenshi glanced at Yu Shiji and Pei Ju, and it was strange why the two of them didn't report the news clearly.

"Luo Yi? Who gave him the decree? Who led King Qin's soldiers and horses, and why didn't he send someone to deliver a letter into the city earlier? Yang Guang frowned and asked.

In recent years, the treasury of the Great Sui has been empty, but under the care of Yang Guang, the grain and grass materials allocated by the imperial court to the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry have never been in arrears. The more than 5,000 horses and horses are all dressed in armor and the tiger iron cavalry is the elite of the Great Sui border army, and Yang Guang will definitely not be easily mobilized unless it is absolutely necessary.

This time Yanmen was besieged, and what Yang Guang was looking forward to most was that Luo Yi could bring someone to save him. The mounted iron cavalry is the nemesis of the light cavalry outside the Saiwai, and since the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the mounted iron cavalry has never lost when it encounters the wolf cavalry outside the Saiwai. But Luo Yi never appeared, and it was not until today that Yang Guang learned that his confidant would actually go straight to the hinterland of the Turks.

If it was someone else who killed Ashina's bone Tuolu's lair at this moment, Yang Guang would be very happy. As he had just thought, this move to encircle Wei and save Zhao was exquisite. But going to the Tiger Ben General Luo Yi to lead people into the grassland, Yang Guang felt very uncomfortable in his heart. "Isn't my safety of any weight in your eyes?" He thought gloomily, and his eyes slowly began to turn red again.

"King Qin's soldiers and horses come from all sides, and for several days, they have been fighting with the wolf cavalry under the command of Shibi Khan, so the Turks can't attack the city with all their might!" Seeing Yang Guang's rudimentary appearance, Yu Wenshi knew that his initial choice was correct. As he stormed into Yanmen City at any cost, his brothers in the Xiongwu Battalion suffered heavy losses. But in contrast to the loss, this move has won more trust for the Yuwen family.

"And now, where are my generals now?" Yang Guang shook his head while sneering.

"They went separately to intercept and kill Shibi Khan, saying that they would be humiliated for His Majesty!" He cleared his throat and began to play aloud. "The minister has a letter from the old general Qu Tutong to His Majesty, which has just been delivered, and the minister didn't dare to delay, so he brought it with him!"

"Qu Tutong, is the reinforcement from outside he bringed? I knew he wouldn't lose! Hearing this, Yang Guang's mood turned from disappointment to happiness. Half a month ago, he had already faintly heard the sound of shouting and killing in the distance from the top of the city. However, the Turks were too tightly surrounded, so it was impossible to know who led the soldiers and horses of King Qin outside the city, and how many people there were.

Qu Tutong is also one of Yang Guang's most trusted generals. At a critical moment, this person can lead the troops to kill, which means that he, the emperor, has not done too much failure.

"The minister found out that there were also Wu Benlang general Li Xu, Hu Ben general Yun Dingxing, auxiliary general Dugu Lin and Tang Gong's second son Li Shimin, and Zhang Xutuo's subordinate governors Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin!" Yu Wenshi thought about it, and reported a list of names that made Yang Guang feel more and more comfortable after listening to it.

"Submit it quickly, I want to see for myself what General Qu has written. General Li actually came from Henan, as well as Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin? Where are they? Why haven't they entered the city yet? Are you afraid that I will blame him for being late? In addition to being happy, Yang Guang didn't care about the movements of the Tiger General Luo Yi, and slapped the table order.

Yu Wenshi stepped forward quickly, took out a letter from his chest that was tightly sealed by fire paint, and presented it to Yang Guang with both hands. He deliberately reported a large number of names at the same time, as the son-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor, he knew very well what kind of temperament his father-in-law was.

If Ashina Gutuolu and King Qin's soldiers and horses did not reach any agreement, he would definitely not take the initiative to surrender. What contributed to today's situation must be Qu Tutong and Li Xu and other Great Sui generals who came to help. And in Qu Tutong's letter, he will inevitably confess this matter to His Majesty.

According to Yu Wenshi's predictions, the efforts made by the generals to save the Great Sui may be both merit and crime.

So, the more people who share the burden, the better.

Thinking so, he secretly observed Yang Guang's face. The smile on His Majesty's face after discovering the imperial case gradually disappeared, and his expression became darker and darker, more and more solemn.
