Suppressing bandits is one of the things that the generals of the DPRK and China like to see the most.

Not only is the difficulty low, but it can also gain a lot of achievements.

Whoever resists this is no different from a fool.

"Don't be too happy too early, I sent you to suppress the bandits, in addition to asking you to snatch back the imperial court materials that they robbed, you also have to find out all the bandit forces along the way, as many as you can exterminate, it is best to let them disappear from now on, completely extinct!" Yang Guang's tone was unprecedentedly indifferent.

He has never liked to kill.

But this kind of thing is like the previous Jiangnan War, which is a bloody incident that must be done and cannot be avoided.

If they were allowed to continue to act wantonly along the way, the impact on the Great Sui would be too bad.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, what you said will be understood, and I promise not to disappoint you." Shan Dao really patted his chest and promised.

It is no secret that a batch of supplies transported from Jiangnan was robbed by bandits, and it has long been spread in the DPRK, so he doesn't need Yang Guang to tell too much, he already knows what he should do.

The next day, Shan Daozhen set off with a large army, and at the city gate, a figure watched them leave.

The owner of this figure is Shan Xiongxin.

He looked at Shan Daozhen wearing armor and riding on a war horse, and between his eyebrows, there was a strong fatherly love.

"I heard that although you came to Jiangdu, you never lived with Shan Daozhen?" At that moment, a voice came to my ears.

Shan Xiongxin was shocked in confidence, and looked back, but found that Yang Guangzheng was looking at him with a smile, Shan Xiongxin was about to kneel down and salute, but Yang Guang dragged his arms and said: "Okay, this is not in the court, so there is no need to do this." ”

"If my identity is revealed, I should be forced to go back to the palace."

Shan Xiongxin was stunned, and then straightened up obediently.

"I just asked you a question, and you haven't answered it yet."

Shan Xiongxin hesitated, but didn't know how to answer: "Your Majesty, between our father and son, it has always been like this. ”

"It's true, it's excellent."

Yang Guang glanced at Shan Xiongxin deeply: "I know that you want to be a strict father, so I will hide my father's side, but, child, you should always praise a few words once in a while, otherwise how will he know your good intentions?" ”

"Your Majesty?" Shan Xiongxin's eyes showed a look of surprise, but then fell silent again.

Over the years, because he is in Wagangzhai and his identity is more sensitive, no matter how insistent Shan Daozhen is, he insists on not letting Shan Daozhen stay in Wagangzhai, all he wants is to not let this only son wade into this troubled water with him.

At the same time, in order to make the real strength of the single way, it is strong enough to be able to take charge of itself. He has never provided asylum to the latter, and his requirements for him have always been almost harsh, and he has been extremely harsh.

Doing so, although the relationship between their father and son became more and more tense, and they lacked the due father-son affection, but I have to say that if it weren't for being in such an environment, Shan Daozhen would not have grown to such a point now, not only became the first martial champion of the Great Sui, but at the same time, he made many military exploits, and gradually narrowed the distance between himself and the famous general.

And after he joined the Great Sui with Wagangzhai, because he had the opportunity to meet with Shan Daozhen frequently, these days, he was actually thinking about whether he should take the initiative to find the latter, and then the two of them sat down and had a good chat, so as to unravel the knots in his heart one by one.

It's a pity that he is proud of himself and has never been able to wipe off this face.

Now, Yang Guang's words did make Shan Xiongxin's heart fluctuate slightly, and vaguely, he seemed to be able to finally make up his mind.

All this, naturally, could not escape Yang Guang's Yang Guang's eyes, he first smiled slightly, and then stopped discussing this topic, and invited: "It is also fate to meet you outside the palace, if you have nothing to do, how about accompanying me to have a drink?" ”

"Okay." Shan Xiongxin had never been alone with Yang Guang, but at this moment, he didn't know what to think, so he agreed directly.

Soon, the two of them came to a restaurant, chose a place by the window, and shouted some wine and food, as well as a pot of wine.

"Your Majesty, why did you leave the palace alone today?" Shan Xiongxin looked puzzled, it stands to reason that this situation should not have happened, even if there is no Jinyiwei, there should be Yang Gonggong to follow.

"Isn't it more comfortable to be alone?" Yang Guang showed a smile: "For this reason, I also deliberately found a trivial matter to separate Yang Gonggong. ”

"Okay......"

For Yang Guang's thoughts, Shan Xiongxin naturally couldn't understand it, so he didn't ask anymore, but drank the wine in a big gulp.

Yang Guang looked at him, very interested.

Other people will be more or less cramped and uneasy in front of them, how can they behave so naturally like Shan Xiongxin.

However, this does not mean that Shan Xiongxin is a person who is disloyal to the Great Sui, on the contrary, this is still a manifestation of integrity and freedom, as long as there are no ghosts in his heart, then why look ahead?

Few of the heroes in Wagangzhai are ordinary characters, and Yang Guang admires each of them very much, as for Shan Xiongxin in front of him, he is no exception. Even, if you talk about integrity, there are really few people in Wagangzhai who can be compared with Shan Xiongxin.

The only drawback is probably that this person talks relatively little, and he can't make a sound with a few sticks.

"Shan Xiongxin, since you came to Dasui, you are still used to everything, right?" Yang Guang put a slice of beef in his mouth and asked while chewing.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's all right." Shan Xiongxin said slowly: "At least it's much stronger than when I was in Luoyang." His Majesty is a wise monarch, far from being comparable to Wang Shichong and his ilk. ”

"Really?"

Yang Guang grinned: "Even you can make such an evaluation of me, then it seems that the other heroes in Wagangzhai should be similar." ”

Shan Xiongxin smiled and was noncommittal.

"Wagangzhai has been surrendered to the Great Sui, we are all Your Majesty's courtiers, as long as Your Majesty gives an order, we dare not disobey, even so, why care about the evaluation of our subordinates?"

Yang Guang shook his head slightly: "No, your evaluation is still very important, otherwise the monarch and the ministers will not be in harmony with each other, and the so-called prosperity will be all an illusion, and it is not the picture I want to see." ”

Because Yang Guang cares about what his subordinates think of him, he is willing to listen to the opinions of the Quartet and govern the country better. And this will undoubtedly bring great benefits to the Great Sui.

Shan Xiongxin also understood this point after a little contemplation.

At the moment, the evaluation of Yang Guang in my heart is undoubtedly a few points higher.

After all, only such an emperor is worthy of their allegiance to the death.
