Chapter 61: Rebellion from the Top!
"Are you sure you really don't?"
Li Shimin couldn't help but ask again.
And Li Xiuning also gave the same answer.
"Nope!"
"No······ How could there not be? Why not? ”
Li Shimin frowned deeply, feeling very incredible.
"With the ability of that Goryeo female assassin, I'm not surprised that she can stay behind, but after all, she is from the Goguryeo side, no matter what, it is impossible for us not to notice it at all!"
Eccentric!
It's so weird!
"Second brother, when you say this, will people from other forces interfere in this matter?"
Li Xiuning proposed a possibility.
"Huh?"
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment.
He subconsciously wanted to veto this possibility.
If there really are other forces involved, with their ability to hide from them, their forces are definitely not under them!
And if you can have such strength, wouldn't it be better to take Yang Gong's treasure house directly and quietly, why release the news?!
This security is unreasonable!
"What if the other party's purpose is to create chaos?"
Li Xiuning once again proposed a possibility.
Li Shimin nodded and shook his head again.
"It's a possibility, but it's not big, unless ······ This Yang Gong treasure house is fake! ”
His eyes flashed with a gleam.
The value of Yang Gong's treasure house was too great, and he didn't believe that anyone would take out this news as bait, just to cause unrest.
If something happens and let their hostile forces get their hands on Yang Gong's treasure house, wouldn't they lose their wife and lose their soldiers?
Li Shimin didn't think that the person behind it would be so unwise.
But if this bait is fake, and there is actually no real Yang Gong Treasure House at all, or if what they are throwing out is just the news of the fake Yang Gong Treasure House, then everything makes sense.
"Second brother, do you mean that someone is playing a game behind the scenes, with the aim of making the major forces kill each other and greatly weaken their power?"
Li Xiuning is also a clear-minded person, and quickly understood Li Shimin's thoughts.
"It's very likely!"
Li Shimin nodded and said.
With Fu Junwu's ability, it is impossible to make a backhand that even they can't find a clue, and the only one who can do this kind of thing is the same force as their four major gates, or simply one of their four major gates!
"So what do we do now? Tell the world about this? ”
Li Xiuning said with a frown.
"No, this will not have any effect, it will only make others think that this is an excuse that Li Valve deliberately made up to swallow Yang Gong's treasure house alone!"
Li Shimin directly rejected this proposal.
At a time when the news of the 'Yang Gong Treasure Treasury' is spreading all over the world, you suddenly stood up and said that the news was fake, and there was a shocking scam behind it, with the purpose of weakening the forces of all parties, the key is that you are still the person who is most likely to get the 'Yang Gong Treasure House', who do you think will believe it?
"This is a conspiracy! What is used is the greed in people's hearts, and as long as the greed in people's hearts is endless, then no one will believe it. ”
Li Shimin sighed, in fact, let alone anyone else, even if it was him, he still had a 'what if' thought in his heart at this time.
Although there are various indications that the news of the 'Yang Gong's Treasure House' that suddenly spread all over the world is likely to be a scam made by unknown forces, what if? What if it's true?!
That's the legendary treasure house of Yang Gong!
Anyone can get it, and it's going to skyrocket.
"And ······"
Li Shimin hesitated for a moment, but after all, he still didn't say the rest of the words - he wondered if this matter would be done by their Li Valve's people?
His father, who is low-key, honest, dedicated, and mediocre in the eyes of outsiders, has never been so simple!
I think it is, if Li Yuan really doesn't have enough wrists and abilities, how can he sit firmly in the position of the master of the four major valves?
Anyway, if this matter is found out in the end, it is really Li Yuan's doing, Li Shimin will not be a little surprised.
But this idea is obviously not very good to say in front of Li Xiuning.
Li Shimin hesitated for a moment and decisively changed the topic.
"Let's wait and see! So far, this is just our speculation, and we don't know whether it's right or wrong, so it's not a good idea to jump to conclusions. ”
"And what we did before?"
"It's still the same, but I'm instructed that if the fight is too fierce, you can withdraw appropriately."
"I see."
······
Li Valve, no, it should be Li Shimin's side who chose to wait and see for the time being.
The other forces are not so calm.
Among them, the most radical is the Dugu Valve, which belongs to one of the four major gate valves.
Lonely home.
"Ce'er, you've been searching for a few days, have you found any clues?"
Dugu Valve's current valve owner, Dugu Feng, asked very directly.
The person being asked is Dugu Ce, the son of Dugu Feng, the leader of the new generation of Dugu Valve, somewhat similar to Yu Wen Valve's Yu Culture and.
Of course, compared to Yu Wenhuahe, who has already begun to take power, Duguce's status needs to be improved.
But if you really want to talk about it, in fact, Dugufeng and Yu Wenhua are the same generation, but they are a little stuck in age.
Dugufeng is in his forties, Yu Wenhua is in his thirties, and Duguce is in his early twenties.
Strictly speaking, Duguce should be the same generation as Yuwen Chengdu and Yuwen Chengdu, and Yuwen Chengdu is not yet an official adult.
Duguce stepped out of the queue and bowed down and said.
"Back to my father, I have checked all the mansions related to Yang Su under our command, but I have not found any clues so far."
Dugu Feng frowned.
"What about the other forces? Back then, there were dozens of Yang Su's mansions in Chang'an, and we only got a few of them, and most of them belonged to others, could the treasure house be hidden in those mansions? ”
"There is a possibility, but the locations of these mansions are not ordinary, if we break in, I'm afraid it will be difficult!"
Duguce said in embarrassment.
The people who were able to carve up Yang Su's legacy mansion back then were not simple goods, either Yuwen Valve and Li Valve, which were both the four major gate valves, or first-class families that had been inherited for at least a hundred years.
Even if they relied on the Holy Grace and had an extremely high status in Chang'an City, it was impossible for them to explore those places for no reason, which was equivalent to directly offending people!
(PS: Because the Song valve is located in Lingnan, it also implements a high degree of autonomous management, similar to an independent kingdom, only taking care of the part of Lingnan, and basically does not participate in the affairs of their court.) So even though they are both one of the four major gates, there is actually nothing to do with them in this 'spoils'. )
"If the light is not good, then the dark one!"
Dugu Feng glanced at Dugu Ce lightly and said.
"As long as there is no evidence, what can they do to us?"
"This ······"
Duguce looked hesitant, obviously still worried.
After all, behind those mansions, it can be said that there is the top magnate in Chang'an City, once they are offended, they will probably not be able to move an inch in the future!
"Ce'er, you still listen to your eldest brother! Don't worry about anything happening, with the eldest brother and our Dugu valve behind the back, there is no need to worry about any trouble! ”
Dugu Sheng opened his mouth at this time, he is the second master of Dugu Valve, and it can also be said that he is one of the faces of Dugu Valve.
His current weight in Dugu Valve's voice is basically second only to Dugu Peak.
Of course, this is on the bright side.
Secretly, Dugu Valve also has an old lady You, she is the mother of Dugu Peak, a big man in the previous generation, and the same generation as Yuwen Valve's Yuwen Valve, and the first person in the true sense of Dugu Valve!
It's just that because of her age and asthma, this old lady You Chuhong has been meditating in the small courtyard for many years.
The current Dugu valve is basically the two brothers Dugufeng and Dugusheng who have the final say.
Both of them opened their mouths like this, and Duguce, as a junior, although he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, he could only come out of the order.
"I'll arrange for someone to prepare these things right away."
After Duguce left, Dugusheng spoke again.
"Big brother, it seems that Ce'er's side still needs more experience and experience! Yang Gong's treasure house is such an important thing, so naturally it is better to get it in your hands desperately, so timid, you will only miss the opportunity! ”
"It's like that Yu Wenhua, he has been very active these days, I heard that he has checked almost most of Yang Su's mansions, and even the mansions we occupy dare to check, it's really hateful!"
Dugu Feng was also a little dissatisfied in his heart, but at this moment, as a father, after all, he still had to defend a few words about his son.
"After all, Ce'er is still young and hasn't experienced much, I believe that after this exercise, he will naturally grow up!"
With that, he quickly changed the subject.
"Speaking of Yu Wenji, if he didn't rely on the will of the Holy Lord, how would he dare to act like this?"
The world says that the Sui Dynasty is thin, and the scene of the end of the dynasty is almost clearly visible, but Yang Guang is still the emperor of the Sui Dynasty after all.
Especially in Chang'an City, Yang Guang's holy decree is still quite useful.
As strong as the Dugu Valve, they did not dare to openly disobey the holy decree, and in the face of Yu Wenhua, who acted according to the order, they could only bow their heads and compromise.
"Isn't it for that faint ······ Did you bring back that broken book? What to be proud of! Who doesn't know, it's a book that no one can understand, and it's useless at all! ”
Dugu Sheng said with a look of disdain.
"Be careful!"
Dugu Feng glared at Dugu Sheng.
Some things, even if you know it, have to rot in your stomach!
Even they Dugu Valve had unclear thoughts in their hearts, and even did more small actions than anyone else, just waiting for Yang Guang to die, or the Sui Dynasty to be destroyed, and immediately take over this huge country.
But this kind of thing, at this time, must not be told to the mouth, it is absolutely secret!
Even when they secretly recruited various senior officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee, they used many specious words.
Dugusheng's approach, if Yang Guang hears it, then it will be okay?
"I'm sorry, big brother, I was wrong."
Dugu Sheng opened his mouth, but finally admitted his mistake.
Years of cultivation have made him more accustomed to direct force communication, and his speech has involuntarily become much more direct.
Normally, if he is targeted by Yu Wenhua and that side, his habit will indeed be very detrimental to Dugu Valve's future plans.
At this time, in fact, whether it is Dugu Valve or Yuwen Valve, the reason why they have been following Yang Guang's side all the time, looking like the most loyal and loyal minister of the Sui Dynasty, is actually for the wool of the Sui Dynasty!
Don't look at the Sui Dynasty is so stormy now, but there are still three nails in the broken ship, not to mention a dynasty that was quite prosperous not long ago.
Not to mention anything else, just the civil and military ministers of this dynasty, then they are all talents!
This 'talent' is not only about their own management ability, this is only one aspect of it, and more importantly, the power behind them!
Although the imperial examination system began after the Sui Dynasty, today's court ministers are basically pushed out in the way of the older generation such as 'promoting filial piety and honesty'.
The courtiers pushed out in this way have a very obvious point - behind them are all famous families in various state capitals, counties and counties!
Establishing a connection with them is basically equivalent to establishing a connection with the family behind them!
What does that mean, and does it need to be said more?
If it is said that the rebel armies of all walks of life are from the bottom up, in the form of rebellion, and finally reach the way of overthrowing the dynasty.
Then Dugu Valve and Yuwen Valve are going from top to bottom, first controlling the superstructure, and then ruling the lower layers one by one.
It can be compared to Yang Jian replacing the Northern Zhou Dynasty, or Cao Cao coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
Both have successful cases, and even Yang Jian's replacement of the Northern Zhou was not long ago.
It is not surprising that Dugu Valve and Yuwen Valve would make such a choice.
And compared to other 'civilian players' (especially referring to Li Mi, Du Fuwei and other rebels), this top-down approach is indeed more suitable for their families.
After all, they have a deeper foundation on their side, and they know best how to deal with those noble families, as long as they can convince them, the possibility of seizing the world in the future is also greater!
Why is it that people all over the world are more convinced that their four major lords are more likely to take over the world?
It's because they naturally represent the interests of a large group of people!
Not to mention, although Li Valve seems to be taking the path of rebellion on the surface, but in the end, they were able to seize the world, not with the help of the Guanlong Group?
Even if it weren't for the rumor that 'the dead Sui must be Li', which caused Li Valve to lose Yang Guang's trust, Li Yuan might not have taken the path of Dugu Valve and Yuwen Valve.
This can be seen from the fact that Li Yuan has always refused to rebel clearly, and if he had not been forced by Li Shimin, he would still be wavering.
If you want to follow the path from the top down, your reputation must not be ruined.
Such as Wang Mang, such as Cao Cao, such as Yang Jian, such as Zhao Kuangyin, etc., they still had a good reputation before they really plotted to usurp the throne.
Dugusheng's non-'respectful' approach is obviously not in their interests.
Of course, after all, it was his own brother, and Dugufeng was only a little beaten.
"It is also a good thing for us that the Holy One is obsessed with the Taoist art of rebirth, and we should not ignore it. It's Yu culture and that over there······ We must not let him succeed! ”
"Don't worry, big brother! I'm going to make them feel bad! ”
