In his own garden in Hedong, Li Shimin quietly studied the art of war and strategy.

Guanyin had nothing to do, so she asked Ding Niangzi to teach a few maids to read and read.

There are lovers staying together, although life is dull, the two of them taste love.

In the Li Shimanor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin and Guanyin lived a life of isolation.

Don't interact with the outside world, as if the world is calm.

But I didn't know that in the past few months, there was already a bloody storm outside, and thousands of heads fell to the ground.

------

In September, the eldest grandson Wuji sent a letter, and the news of Yang Xuangan's defeat came.

Yang Xuan's uprising was basically not what Li Shimin expected.

Soon after the army was raised in June, Yang Guang received an urgent report, and he immediately stopped his conquest of Liaodong.

The army of the Sui Dynasty retreated from Liaodong and ordered Yu Wenshu to lead troops back to Luoyang, the eastern capital.

Yang Xuangan besieged Luoyang, but he couldn't capture it for a long time.

------

In August, Yang Xuangan found out that Yu Wenshu led troops back to help.

Li Mi suggested to Yang Xuangan that he give up attacking Luoyang and go west to take Guanzhong.

In desperation, Yang Xuangan had no choice but to accept Li Mi's suggestion.

He ordered the rebels to abandon the siege of Luoyang and lead his troops to the west along the Yellow River.

Yu Wenshu, Wei Wensheng, Lai Hu'er, Qu Tutong and other imperial armies chased after them.

------

Yang Xuangan rebels, lightly armed and hurried, arrived from Luoyang to Hongnong City in two days.

Hongnong Taishou Wang Zhiji saw the arrival of the rebels and said to his subordinates,

"Yang Xuan sensed that reinforcements were coming, so he gave up the siege of Luoyang and went west to try Guanzhong."

"If we don't stop it and let the rebels enter Guanzhong smoothly, we will be severely punished by the imperial court."

"But if you go out of the city and stop it, there will be insufficient troops in the city, and you will not be able to resist the enemy."

"We need to find a way to save ourselves and sabotage his plans."

------

When Yang Xuangan's rebels arrived at the city of Hongnong, they wanted to cross the city and go straight to Tongguan.

Wang Zhiji stood on top of the city tower and asked the sergeants to scold Yang Xuangan.

Yang Xuan was so angry that he ordered his army to stop its westward advance and attack Hongnong City.

Li Mi saw that Yang Xuangan changed the established plan in anger, so he bitterly admonished Yang Xuangan,

"Our army is advancing west to seize the pass, and the soldiers are very fast, if we attack Hongnong, we will lose our fighters."

"When the imperial court pursues the arrival of the army, our army has not occupied Tongguan in front, and there is no danger to defend in the back, and it will definitely be defeated."

------

Yang Xuangan did not listen to Li Mi's persuasion and insisted on attacking Hongnong City.

He asked his subordinates to burn the Hongnong City Gate.

Wang Zhiji also let people light a fire inside the city gate.

Inside and outside the city gates, the fire was scorching and the heat wave was rolling, and although the city gate was broken, the rebels could not enter the city.

After attacking for three days, they failed to capture Hongnong City, but the court pursued the troops to arrive.

------

Yang Xuangan delayed the fighter, and it was impossible to take Tongguan again.

He had no choice but to order the rebels to take up a position in the wilderness.

With a rabble, they faced several armies such as Yuwenshu, Wei Wensheng, Laihu'er, and Qu Tutong.

The rebels were surrounded and crumbled.

In the end, Yang Xuangan had to flee, leaving only his younger brother Yang Jishan alone.

He knew that he could not escape, so he asked Yang Jishan to kill him.

After Yang Jishan killed Yang Xuangan, he committed suicide but did not die and was captured by the Sui army.

------

The Sui army brought Yang Xuangan's body to Luoyang with Yang Jishan.

When he arrived in Luoyang, Yang Jishan was put to death.

After the bodies of the two Yang Xuangan brothers were chopped up, they were thrown on the street for public display.

Three days later, it was set on fire again, and the body was burned to ashes.

Yang Xuangan's younger brothers Yang Xuanxuan and Yang Xingren were also killed.

The descendants of Yang Su and Yang Yue were exterminated.

------

Yang Guang was extremely angry at Yang Xuangan's rebellion, and he scolded,

"Yang Xuangan's call was immediately responded by 100,000 people, which shows that there are more people in this world is not beneficial, and it will only gather crowds to steal."

"Not killing all the rebels is not enough to deter others."

He issued an edict and ordered Zheng Shanguo, the secretary of Dali, Pei Yun, the imperial historian, Guyi, the servant of the Criminal Department, and Fan Zigai, who stayed in Chang'an, to arrest Yang Xuangan's henchmen.

Fan Zigai and Pei Yun searched and killed more than 30,000 people.

All the property of these people's houses and fields was confiscated, and their wives and children were slaves.

In addition, more than 6,000 exiles were implicated.

Hu Sizheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, fled to Goryeo because of his secret collusion with Yang Xuangan and was afraid of being punished.

Guanyin's uncle, Gao Jian, had a relationship with Hu Sizheng, and was relegated to Zhu Yuan County, Jiaozhi County.

------

Gao Jian's mother, Mrs. Gao, is too old to live with him in Jiaozhi.

Before leaving, Gao Jian entrusted his mother to his wife.

He also discussed with Gao Qiuniang and purchased a mansion for the eldest grandson Wuji across a road to the east of the Gao Mansion in Chongrenli.

In this way, the two families live across the road, Gao Qiuniang and Xianyu Niangzi can take care of Mrs. Gao together.

All the arrangements are stopped, and Gao Jian is relieved to go on the road.

------

Seeing the letter sent by the eldest grandson Wuji, Guanyin was not only saddened by her uncle's debasement, but also remembered her mother Gao Qiuniang even more.

She took the letter to Qingxinzhai to see Li Shimin.

The two sat side by side on the reed mats in the courtyard and read together.

Li Shimin shuddered when he saw it.

He couldn't help but sigh that Yang Xuan felt that the ending of the army was too cruel.

At the moment, thinking of the rebels, Yang Xuangan is not alone?

Looking at the smoke all over the country, there are countless thieves gathered in various places.

However, in the end, there is only one person who can take over the world.

The court and the rebels strangled each other, and I don't know how many lives were killed in vain?

Think about the Tang State Mansion's plan to raise troops, the success or failure is unpredictable, and it is really impossible to be careful.

------

Guanyin saw Li Shimin's brows tightened, and she said quietly beside her,

"The stakes are high when you raise troops."

"Personal life and death are small matters, and once they fail, they may affect the elderly, children and clansmen in the family."

"Thousands of followers of the uprising will also die without a place to bury."

Li Shimin grabbed Guanyin and asked her to sit beside him.

He thought for a moment and said slowly:

"Such matters, which involve the lives and deaths of countless people, must not be left to the spur of the moment."

"You have to plan carefully and be sure before you act."

"Judging from what Yang Xuangan has done, he actually regards the life and death of countless people as child's play."

"I should remind my father and brother that they must take this as a warning and learn from the past."

------

Guanyin was equally shocked by the imperial court's bloody suppression of the rebellion.

She didn't want to see that in the future, the Tang State Mansion would also end up with a tragic ending like Yang Xuangan.

Although Guanyin was not ashamed of what Yang Xuan did, in her heart, there was a sense of sadness for the rabbit and the fox.

Guanyin was full of worries, looked at Li Shimin, and reminded softly,

"Brother Shimin should remember Yang Xuan's mistake in raising troops."

"So that the same mistake may not occur in the future."

Li Shimin didn't want Guanyin to worry, so he nodded seriously,

"In the next few days, I will think carefully about Yang Xuangan's rebellion."

------

In late autumn in September, the chill is getting stronger.

The dead leaves on the trees drift away in the wind.

A few pieces tumbled and landed on the sides of Li Shimin and Guanyin.

Guanyin picked up a piece and held it in her hand.

She suddenly realized that winter was coming, and explained to Li Shimin softly,

"It's cold, Brother Shimin can't sit in the courtyard anymore, be careful that you will catch a cold."

Li Shimin realized Guanyin's concern and smiled,

"Out of the way, I'm strong."

Guanyin was a little angry, "It's not good to have a strong body."

As she spoke, she stood up with Li Shimin's shoulders and walked to the grass shed.

------

Guanyin walked around the grass hut.

Before and after, after looking carefully, Guanyin was very worried,

"This grass hut is not good, the wind leaks on all sides, how to resist the cold of winter."

Guanyin is right.

This hut was built on a hot day, just to provide shelter from the wind and rain.

It is not built according to the standard of weathering the wind and snow and winter.

The roof of the shed is only covered with a layer of wheat straw, but it does not leak rain.

The two ends of the straw shed are not sealed, where is the ability to protect against the cold?

------

Guanyin was in the mansion of the eldest grandson general, and saw the grass shed built by the eldest grandson Wuyi when he was filial piety,

She seemed to be very expert in introducing Li Shimin,

"I know how to build a winter shelter."

"Build the frame first, and lay a foil fence on the outside."

"Spread a grass fence on top of the hedge, and then go up from the bottom to the top."

"Layer upon layer and stick the wheat straw with mud."

"Tomorrow, you ask Lu Zheng to lead a few people to rebuild the grass shed according to the method I said."

------

Li Shimin saw that Guanyin was talking to herself, and she didn't speak, just laughing when she looked at her.

Guanyin saw that Li Shimin didn't agree, she was stunned for a moment, and said angrily:

"Did you hear what I said?"

Li Shimin pursed his lips and smiled, "You are not allowed to be angry when I speak."

Guanyin glanced at Li Shimin again, and urged,

"No matter what you say, just say it."

Li Shimin made fun of Guanyin,

"Look at the way you speak, like a mason."

------

Because the social status of "masons" was very low at that time.

Except for Li Shimin, no one dares to say this about Guanyin.

After hearing this, Guanyin pretended to be very angry and ran over to chase Li Shimin.

Li Shimin saw her rushing over and hugged her in his arms.

Guanyin struggled hard, but Li Shimin's arms became tighter and tighter.

She didn't pay attention, but she had to stop struggling.

Guanyin quieted down and put her head on Li Shimin's chest.

------

Li Shimin held Guanyin in his arms, feeling that she was so petite and weak, and he also loved and pity.

The childish little sister in her arms has experienced too many ups and downs and changes in the past few years.

I wanted to marry her as soon as possible and give her more love and care.

I never thought about the newlywed for more than ten days, so I left her alone at home.

Now his mother, Mrs. Dou, has passed away.

This petite and weak girl is not supported by her aunt, but she has to shoulder the burden of the family.

And not only did he not bring her safety, but he thought about seeking the world all day long.

Bring her to the forefront of uncertain prospects and undercurrents.

If you really raise troops in the future, the good luck is unpredictable, and I don't know if it will be a smooth road or a dead end?

If something really happens, this delicate elf will also be affected by this, and his life will come to an end.

------

Li Shimin hugged Guanyin tightly and pressed his face against her forehead.

The two were silent, and their hearts depended on each other.

After a while, Li Shimin asked Guanyin softly,

"Will you be afraid if I raise an army in the future?"

Guanyin looked up at Li Shimin, she also knew that the road ahead was difficult, but her eyes were firm and said:

"A good man must be determined to be in the world, but he must plan before he acts, and do not make unnecessary sacrifices."

Li Shimin nodded, "I'll think twice before acting."

------

After listening to Li Shimin, Guanyin wanted to break free from his embrace.

Li Shimin asked with a smile, "What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Guanyin said: "The affairs of the world are too far away from us, and it is imperative not to be frozen."

"Now I'm going to make a careful plan to build you a hut to shelter you from the wind and cold."
