Chapter 622: One Step to the Sky

(It's still a chapter today, brothers)

At the beginning of October, Yang Guang arrived on the outskirts of Beijing, and Yang Ming and his ministers waited here early.

Looking back at the expressions on the faces of those ministers, Yang Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly, they were all awesome, the lifeless look in the court, there was no one by one at the moment, and they all had an expression of expectation, worry, concern, and anxiety.

Yes, Yang Guang came back in embarrassment, he must have been holding back the fire in his belly, who dared to touch his reverse scales at this time, and there was nothing but death in the end.

Yang Ming also had the same expression, with a worried face, looking forward to his father's return, and his mood was brewing better, maybe he could squeeze out two tears.

Seeing the chariot from a distance, Yang Ming and a group of courtiers trotted over.

"Father (Your Majesty) has worked hard,"

The crowd bowed and saluted the chariot.

Yang Guang may have been ashamed to see people, and did not respond, but just let the king of Qi get out of the carriage and said to the ministers:

"Let's drive back to the palace."

Only then did everyone follow on both sides of the convoy on foot, escorting Yang Guang into the Beijing Division.

On both sides of Suzaku Street, there were also hundreds of people in the streets to welcome the emperor's return, all of whom were entrusted and hired for money, and each person could be paid twenty yuan.

Yang Ming couldn't have thought of this, but Yang Yinjiang reminded him that the more this time, the more he had to deal with the small things thoughtfully, and try to suppress the emperor's anger, so as not to implicate too many people.

That's how the emperor was when he was angry, the innocent and the wrong shot was hit, and it was completely indiscriminate.

The end of a big defeat is the most complicated and difficult.

Until he entered the palace, Yang Ming didn't see his father, only Yang Jin got out of the car and was taken back to the East Palace.

Yang Jun then passed on the will and announced the boycott for three days, this kid has the merit of saving the driver, and now he has a batch of cattle.

"Let's go, let's go, let's all go back to the headquarters, what should I do, your loyalty, Your Majesty has seen it," Yang Yong stood on the steps of the Liangyi Hall and said to everyone.

After everyone dispersed, Yang Jun frowned at Yang Ming and said, "Third child, what are you still doing with the pestle?" Go back to your East Palace. ”

Yang Ming said lightly: "I want to see my father." ”

"Father is tired of traveling and driving, are you embarrassed to disturb his old man's rest at this juncture?" Yang said.

Yang Ming asked again: "What about Yuwen Shu?" ”

"It's still halfway through, I said the third child, your father-in-law, there's a problem," Yang Yun sneered.

Yang Ming smiled: "What's the problem?" ”

Yang Xuan said: "It is not good to supervise the transportation of grain and grass, delay the military aircraft, someone in the Yushitai accused him of rebellion, of course, I know that Xuan Gan's little courage, digging it out is not half a double, he can't do this kind of thing, but for the crime of dereliction of duty, he can't run." ”

"Yushitai, those people's mouths are long since different from before," Yang Ming said with a smile: "Believe it or not, someone will sue the second brother for rebellion tomorrow?" ”

Yang Yun shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "I don't believe this, by the way, you let Cui Lingzi go back to the Qi Palace, I have been bothering you for so long, I should go back." ”

"The person is dead," Yang Ming said lightly.

Yang Xuan's color suddenly changed, and he pointed at Yang Ming angrily and said, "You want to play with me like this, right?" ”

"Just kidding, the second brother actually believed it," Yang Ming said with a smile: "Jingshi now knows that she has lived in my East Palace for two years, and then sends the second brother back, what will others think?" ”

The corners of Yang Jun's mouth hooked: "Okay, you really do it, dare to insult your brother like this, will you still take your father and queen mother in your eyes in the future?" ”

Yang Ming said: "Follow what the second brother says, today I must see my father." ”

"There is a will," Yang said with a smile.

Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Say it." ”

"You should bow down and say that your son will take orders," Yang Jun sneered.

Yang Ming's eyes narrowed, and he said lightly: "Erchen takes the order." ”

"The crown prince is also in charge of counterinsurgency matters, there must be no mistakes, and the big and small matters are decided by themselves, and there is no need to ask me," Yang Yin said with a smile.

Before Yang Guang came back, the matter of counterinsurgency was Yang Ming's commander-in-chief, and as soon as the emperor returned, he could only be called concurrent.

Yang Ming could only leave.

After he left, Yang Yun returned to the Liangyi Palace, Yang Guang is now a little grateful to his second son, and he has to count on his own son at a critical time, he has snubbed the second child for so many years, and now he naturally wants to appease him.

"Bosch, what do you think is the failure this time?" Yang Guang sighed.

Yu Shinan said lightly: "It's a matter of supply, if the supply is complete, Your Majesty won't camp there, and you won't even be able to send out the rangers, so naturally you won't give the enemy the opportunity to attack the camp." ”

"Yu Sheren is right," Yang Yan said on the side: "In such a critical battle, the military can't keep up, isn't this a joke?" The third superintendent of the country, Xuangan supervises the luck, and the problem lies with the two of them. ”

Pei Yun frowned and said: "Hebei and Shandong are full of civil chaos, and the grain line is blocked, so it is not to blame the prince and Xuan Gan." ”

Everyone knows that it is Yang Jin's fault, but now Yang Guangming is protective, so no one will raise this issue here.

But at the court meeting, there will definitely be something to say, so Pei Yun is not in a hurry.

If you want to bring down Xuangan, you can't involve the prince, and if you want to bring down Xuangan, you can't bring down Xuangan, and the old Pei family knows this very well.

Yu Shiji, who had already returned to Beijing first, said: "The minister thinks that we are actually not defeated this time. ”

Yang Guang was stunned: "How do you say it?" ”

Yu Shiji said: "The news from the rear came, Zhu Luo was wounded by an arrow, died of his injuries, and has died, and now he has taken over the position of the Khan, who is the third in line, the Khan of Jieli, the defense of Guanzhong, the death of a Shibi His Majesty's Northern Expedition, the death of a Zhuluo, the Eastern Turkic vitality is greatly injured, what is this not a big victory?" ”

"That's too far-fetched, isn't it?" Mai Tiezhu said: "We have suffered heavy losses, there are hundreds of thousands of deserters alone, although the Eastern Turks are even worse, but we are the first to leave, and the first to leave cannot be regarded as a winner, right?" ”

"If you don't understand, let him continue," Yang Guang glared at Mai Tiezhu.

Yu Shiji glanced around at everyone and said with a smile: "The Great Khan of the Eastern Turks, being killed by us, isn't it a big victory?" The leader was killed, and our army was beaten all the way into the tooth tent, did the Eastern Turks win? The minister thought that this news should be spread all over the world immediately to reassure people's hearts. ”

"It is indeed a top priority," Yang Da nodded: "At present, people's hearts are fluctuating, and many people don't know what is happening in the north, Your Majesty should indeed announce to the world that Chu Luo was killed by our army." ”

"Who shot him?" Yang Guangdao.

Yu Shiji said: "Yu Zhongwen is a pawn. ”

People shot an arrow, although they didn't die on the spot, but afterwards it was indeed because the arrow was hung, so it was completely correct to count it on the head of this little soldier.

In fact, the Turks could have closed the news, but Jieli was in a hurry to succeed to the throne and gather the remnants, so he could only quickly announce the death of Zhu Luo.

If he doesn't die, he can't take over, and the other tribal leaders will come out to fight for power as soon as possible.

This kind of handover of positions must be fast and slow, and it will be very problematic.

Yang Guang nodded: "Canonize the Duke of Dingxiang County, worship the Zhuguo, seal the Tiger Benlang General, and announce it to the world." ”

"Your Majesty," Yu Shiji said with a smile.

In fact, it is right to do this, the early spread of Chu Luo's death is beneficial to the imperial court, and it is necessary to let those thieves know that the emperor is returning to the dynasty with a great victory, which can play a deterrent role.

The seal is so high, firstly, this credit is really great, and secondly, it is also necessary to set an example, so that everyone knows that Dasui has won.

At this time, Yang Guang looked at the second child and said, "The third child went back?" ”

"Let's go," Yang Yan nodded: "I let him go, people are not happy, I have to see you, and finally I took out the edict, and he left honestly." ”

Yang Guang was embarrassed to see Yang Ming, a little weak-hearted, although his son never persuaded him to give up the Northern Expedition from beginning to end, but it was that kind of silent resistance that made Yang Guang feel even more uncomfortable.

He won't even persuade me? He is the crown prince, and if he does his best to advise, I may not disobey him.

So in a short period of time, he didn't plan to see the third child, because he was afraid that the third child would say something he didn't like to hear, which could be regarded as an escape.

"You've always been in Jingshi, how did you discuss this matter at the court meeting?" Yang Guang looked at Su Weidao.

Su Wei dared to complain in front of Yang Ming, but he definitely didn't dare to do so in front of Yang Guang, so he said:

"Everyone is mainly worried about His Majesty's safety, especially the crown prince."

"I said Su Wei, are you farting here with your eyes open?" Yang Xuan said: "Do you think that what happened to Jingshi, Your Majesty will not know?" ”

Su Wei retorted: "Then please tell His Royal Highness King Qi, what happened?" ”

Yang Xuan sneered: "It's not the right time for Your Majesty to go north, otherwise Jiangdu and Shandong would not be like this, I have a list in my hand, who has farted at the court meeting, I know it here." ”

Su Wei drooped his eyelids and said: "What everyone means is that if the main force of my Great Sui is here, there will be no chaos in various places, and the King of Qi heard it wrong." ”

As the left servant of Shangshu, the head of a hundred officials, the person in this position is adhering to the emperor's will and arranging the people below to do things, so in this position, one thing must be learned, that is, to protect people.

If you don't maintain your subordinates on weekdays, your subordinates won't do things for you, and even if you do, it's against you.

Yang Jun laughed: "You really know how to quibble, who told the third child at the court meeting and asked him to persuade His Majesty to withdraw the troops?" Solvay, isn't that you? ”

Su Wei looked at his nose and nose and his heart, and did not say a word.

Although the number of people in the small court meeting presided over by Yang Ming is small, there is a premise, that is, there must be someone in Menxia Province, Inner History Province, and Yushitai, because these three departments are nominally called assisting the prince to supervise the country, but in fact they are to supervise the prince.

Yang Xuan sneered: "It's your favorite dance." ”

"Presumptuous," Yang Guang suddenly said angrily: "Did you talk to Su Qing like this?" How old are you? ”

His posture must be put on a posture, because according to the Great Sui system, the three princes and three divisions, plus Shang Shuling and the left and right servants, the prince also has to salute when he sees it.

Because these positions are the highest ranks among the courtiers, there are only two monarchs, the emperor and the prince.

Under normal circumstances, queens have to give three points, of course, except for powerful queens like Dugu Jialuo, mainly because they are the founding queens.

Don't underestimate the minister, there are many emperors who have been killed by ministers in history.

Yang Jian hurriedly apologized to Su Wei, but Su Wei ignored him.

Yang Guang wanted to ask about the crime, and he wouldn't take Su Wei as a knife, so he said: "How did they discuss, I just asked, after all, it is the prince who is in charge of the country, and some people are inevitably bolder, bullying the prince's benevolence and righteousness, and they dare to say some indecent words." ”

He was beating Su Wei, Su Wei naturally heard it, and hurriedly said: "The prince is in charge of the country, he is dedicated to his duties, and the ministers who assist him are also conscientious, everyone is for Your Majesty, for my Great Sui Jiangshan." ”

"That's right," Yang Guang nodded and said: "Now the rebellion in various places, I have also heard of it, now my army is returning to the south, just when the rebellion is quelled, Lai Hu'er replaced Zhang Xutuo, as the ambassador of Hebei, Shandong, and Henan to arrest the dethroned, Zhang Xutuo and Yujuluo are the deputy envoys, Li Yuan is the town of Fushanxi, Wei Xuan is the general manager of the Jiangnan Provincial March, Li Shimin and Qiu He are the deputy governors, quelling the rebellion in Jiangnan, and the rest return to Beijing to report on their work. ”

It's a nice thing to say, as if these people can really put down the rebellion.

Will it work?

ran more than 100,000 troops, half of them were carrying refined weapons, this was already a battle of confrontation, if Zhang Xutuo encountered the main force of deserters, he would not be able to do it at all.

Su Wei also knew that the emperor's words were similar to a fart, and if he wanted a ball, how could he quell the rebellion?

However, he didn't want to say anything more, since the first year of the Great Cause, Su Wei's backbone has been broken, and when Gao Xi was there, it was not completely broken, and as soon as Gao Xi left, there was no iron bone in the court.

In the Jingshi, a large-scale manhunt was also launched, and all serious Turkic merchants were expelled from the country, and the origin was not very clear, and all were killed.

At this moment, the city of Zijing was full of shaved people, because the most obvious feature of the Turks was the beard.

As for the young man who shot and killed Zhu Luo, he ascended to the sky in one step and directly became Wei Yunqi's deputy, and Wei Yunqi took him on a tour of the Beijing division to accept the congratulations of the people.

Is it luck? It doesn't count or not, luck is reserved for those who are prepared.

This kid is under the command of Zhongwen, and he rushed into battle with Dugu Kai, he is the vanguard, and after seeing the wolf's head from afar, he never looked away.

He knows that a pioneer like him has the same probability of dying as he does if he pulls a bubble of a day, so the purpose is very clear, I have to make meritorious contributions.

As long as I make meritorious service and I die, my parents, wife and children, the state will support me for me.

So this kid took ten people under his command, seized the opportunity in the chaos, approached Chu Luo's location, and fired six arrows in a row, only one of which hit Chu Luo's shoulder.

This kind of injury will not die in the later generations, but in ancient times, the probability of death is not small, just a tetanus, the gods are difficult to save, not to mention excessive blood loss, there is no blood transfusion bag in this year.

After the shot, he reported it to his boss as soon as possible, and then passed it layer by layer, and Yu Zhongwen and Wei Xuan also knew.

On the way back to the south, the news came from the front line that Chu Luo was seriously injured and died, and Dugu Kai accepted this person as a righteous son as soon as possible, which can be regarded as being under the Dugu family.

Although Dugu Kai himself was also given a surname, he was a member of the Dugu family.

By the way, the kid who shot Luo was called Song Jingang.
