Chapter 64: The Young General

A muffled thunder exploded above the Golden Palace, and Gao Gong looked at the messenger who came from the rear in disbelief, but the ministers were surprised but silent.

The emperor couldn't hold his expression, his eyes widened and he stood up, and the eunuch next to him stepped forward to support the emperor.

The tall and strong emperor threw the eunuch to the ground with a flick of his hand, and the eunuch immediately got up and waited behind.

Yang Jian stepped down from the high platform, every step seemed to be extremely heavy, the entire hall was surprisingly quiet, and the emperor's footsteps were like sharp knives cutting iron, which made people feel chills in their hearts.

He walked up to the messenger and said in a low voice, "You say...... What! ”

The soldier who reported the news raised his head slightly, looked at the emperor with a low face, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and the incomparably powerful sense of oppression made it difficult for him to look directly, and his voice trembled even more.

"Your Majesty, report urgently at the border pass, His Royal Highness King Wei...... Your Highness, it's gone. ”

He still reported the news he had brought back.

People like to report good news but not mourning, and there are many rewards for reporting good news, and mourning is not liked by people.

Everyone heard clearly, King Wei was dead, and King Wei, who was in his twenties, was really dead.

If there is even the slightest possibility that King Wei is not dead, missing, captured, or seriously ill, it is absolutely impossible to report it, and it is absolutely impossible to report it, and it is absolutely impossible to come back to life, unlike the kind in the TV series that may come back to life.

"How did he die?"

"His Royal Highness King Wei, five days ago, suddenly fell to the ground in the house, his body was like an oil lamp in just half a day, the doctors used a lot of medicine, but they could not save His Royal Highness King Wei, and there was no doctor that night, and he died."

Either assassinated, not poisoned, not fighting, not fighting, or inexplicably dying.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! King Wei has been fighting all year round, and his body is many times better than ordinary people, how could he die inexplicably, was someone poisoned? ”

"Your Majesty, the doctors said that there were no signs of poisoning, according to the maid of His Royal Highness King Wei, His Royal Highness King Wei suddenly fell to the ground, his head also hit the ground, and the whole person seemed to be lost in an instant, and he was paralyzed all of a sudden."

The emperor still seems unwilling to accept this reality: "How is it possible, how can people die inexplicably, how can people disappear inexplicably, he is only in his twenties, he is only in his twenties, it is when he is young and strong, someone must harm him, give me an investigation, give me an investigation." ”

There is no doubt that without the emperor's order, the border army is also investigating the death of the king.

But the death of King Wei has become a reality, and the Emperor laments: "My young general!! ”

The ministers shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, mourn." ”

Everyone knows Yang Shuang's status in Yang Jian's mind, Yang Shuang himself was raised by Yang Jian and Queen Dugu, although they are brothers, they are similar to father and son.

Yang Shuang is both civil and military, sincere and sincere, and people often say that Yang Shuang and Yang Jian are like Huo Quzhi and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Yang Shuang is such a capable person, but he still has the ability to get along with people, can tolerate people, can use people, and Yang Yong together, try his best to comfort Yang Yong, Yang Yong's best performance is when Yang Shuang is by his side, Yang Yong listens to his words as Uncle Wei Wang.

When he is with Yang Guang, he can also get along very well, he does not fight for merit, he is not greedy for merit, he has the ability to fight, and he has the ability to govern the army.

It is difficult to be full, and those who get it will not live long.

Such a perfect young general, in his twenties, made great achievements, but his life in his twenties came to an abrupt end.

How can it not be a sigh?

After Yang Jian shouted bitterly, he came back to his senses and said to Gao Gong: "Gao Gong, set off for Youzhou immediately, stabilize the border army, retreat the defense line, and beware of Goguryeo." ”

Now within a few days of the Youzhou army, the commander returned to Beijing for no reason, and the king of the soldiers died for no reason, it is conceivable that it should be a mess, and now it is necessary to send people to stabilize the morale of the army, and the emperor can only hand over this burden to Gao Gong's hands.

When he was in danger, Gao Gong did not hesitate, and got up directly: "Weichen takes the order." ”

didn't stop at all, just sent someone to inform his family, and took a team of guards and horses in Daxing City and went straight to the direction of Youzhou City, the sooner he arrived, the better.

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go, I'm tired." ”

Under such circumstances, the ministers could only retreat one after another, and when they walked out of the palace gate, they talked a lot, about the death of King Wei, and about the prince returning to Beijing privately.

The sudden death of King Wei added one degree to the crime of the prince's return to Beijing, and if the Goguryeo war situation was lost, it would be even more guilty.

Originally, everyone thought that it was impossible for our army to have problems on the battlefield of Goguryeo, whether it was the number of troops, troops, logistics supplies, or the people who led the troops, how could our army lose?

No one could have imagined the current situation.

Yang Su went straight to the Jin Palace, and when he entered the palace, he first informed Yang Guang of the news of King Wei's death, and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin, now that His Majesty's most important King Wei is dead, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is probably going to add to the crime." ”

For the Jin Palace, which stood on the opposite side of the crown prince, this matter should be regarded as a good thing to add fuel to the fire, but Yang Guang was grim-faced.

Yang Su continued: "On this matter, once the border army has any losses, there will definitely be people who will participate in the book of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the courtiers must have been angry about His Royal Highness's irresponsibility......

Yang Guang's deep voice interrupted Yang Su's words: "Next, the Jin Palace, as well as the courtiers under you, the prince of the county, no one is allowed to play on the battlefield losses of Goguryeo caused by the death of King Wei, and they are not allowed to attack the prince's side with this matter." ”

Yang Su looked at Yang Guang in surprise: "Your Highness, this ......"

As a mature politician, it is impossible to let go of such a huge opportunity to target political opponents that fell from the sky, and such an opportunity must not be arranged by yourself.

As a staff member, Yang Su's thoughts are right, and he thinks from the perspective of the entire Jin Wangfu and the people behind them.

Yang Guang sighed and said, "However, that's also my Uncle Weiwang." ”

"Everyone is Uncle Wei is the prince's party, the two have grown up together since childhood, and everyone has seen what Uncle Wei has done for the prince, but Uncle Wei Wang and I are fighting the Turks in Shuozhou, but if Uncle Wei Wang has any selfish intentions, I will not be able to live as I wish, according to his ability to lead troops and his status in the army, I can only be a puppet, and I will even be targeted."

"But what about Uncle Wei? He tried his best to teach me, help me, and was willing to use my strategy to give me the greatest credit, he could do a lot, but he only did the part that was good for the country and the people, his starting point was never party struggle, and the most important thing in his sight was never politics. ”

Yang Shuang, as in history, died young, and left without any warning.

Yang Guang has to take care of the name behind Yang Shuang, the person is gone, and now he is attacking Yang Yong with the matter of Goguryeo, and he will inevitably have to lead this Wei Wang Yang Shuang again and again.

He didn't want to, he didn't want to, when people mentioned Yang Shuang in the future, they would always discuss it with this farce-like battle of Goguryeo.

They should record the exploits of the young general, and not become a farce.

Therefore, no matter how Yang Su and others persuade in this matter, Yang Guang will never use this matter to attack Yang Yong.

There is always a dream of a young general in the hearts of all Chinese men, Liu Che is Huo Qubing in his dream, and Yang Jian is Yang Shuang in his dream.

Yang Guang also has such a dream.

Poetry and wine rivers and lakes drifting in the night rain, temples and temples point out thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, reprimanding Fang Xuan Yong to crown the three armies, and strategize to help the world.

It may not have backfired, but no matter where I ended up, when I set out, I was always fascinated by how I imagined myself.

Why is it said that men are teenagers until they die, because the young man in the dream is full of light, how can he bear to splash dirty water on the young man's body?

Yang Su lamented that he had missed such a big opportunity, and Yang Guang was worried that he had lost Uncle Wei Wang.

There are many people who have similar ideas as Yang Su, so there are several people who arrived at the Jin Palace's mansion today, and Yang Su, who originally came up with the idea, has become a persuading character.

After Li Yuan heard Yang Su finish talking about Yang Guang's decision, he laughed.

"Why is Tang Guogong laughing?"

"Your Highness is so righteous, shouldn't I laugh?"

Li Yuan said to the entourage behind him: "Go to the mansion and bring my treasured wine, Your Highness is depressed today, and I will have a few drinks with Your Highness." ”

Yang Su asked puzzledly: "Tang Guogong, why are you so happy?" We have missed a great opportunity, and I don't know if there will be such an opportunity in the future. ”

Li Yuan explained Yang Su: "Jun Gong, I am not opportunistic to follow His Royal Highness the King of Jin, but to fancy His Highness's ability to be a person, although I have missed a great opportunity now, but missing this opportunity is not that His Highness is difficult to judge or mediocre, it is enough to know this, isn't His Highness more worthy of our follow?" ”

"As for opportunities, there are more opportunities with His Highness."

When Li Yuan said this, Yang Su suddenly brightened up, and also laughed: "It's that the old man is stupid, thank you Tang Guo for your public understanding." ”

"Brother Xuangan, I have to call Brother Xuangan to drink two glasses together today."

Today, a few people drank until late at night, and they all drank in a daze, and then fell asleep deeply.

Early the next morning, news came from the palace, allowing Yang Guang and Xiao Menglan to enter the palace for an audience.

Xiao Menglan was very careful to sort out the clothes Yang Guang was wearing, today's situation was special, and there was no room for the slightest flaw.

In the palace, Yang Guang did not see the emperor, but met the queen with Xiao Menglan.

The queen is not in a good mood, how can it be good when King Wei dies?

And there is also Princess Wei in the palace today, and Princess Wei is next to Yang Ji, the son of King Wei, who is almost two years old.

The little doll didn't know what was going on, but his mother's eyes were red and she shed tears from time to time, so the cute doll reached out to help her mother wipe it, smiling simply and cutely.

The queen comforted Princess Wei: "Princess Wei, King Wei's body is on the way back to Daxing, Your Majesty and the palace will definitely be buried." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Queen Mother."

King Wei is not trapped in the private relationship of his children, this Princess Wei is also the queen matchmaking, King Wei has always respected him as a guest, the relationship between husband and wife is not much love, but it is not bad, the military generals leave home all the year round, gather less and leave more.

The queen said to Yang Guang and Xiao Menglan: "Amo, Menglan, your Uncle Wei Wang passed away suddenly, leaving orphans and widows now, Yang Ji is your cousin, and this palace hopes that you will take care of Yang Ji more in the future." ”

Yang Guang immediately responded: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the son will definitely do it." ”

Xiao Menglan also immediately said: "Queen Mother, my daughter-in-law will definitely visit more, and I will buy real estate for my aunt in the nearest place, so as not to live far away." ”

For the two of them to express their position without hesitation, Queen Dugu nodded with satisfaction.

Then he waved his hand and let Princess Wei go out first, leaving Yang Guang and Xiao Menglan alone.

In front of her son and daughter-in-law, Queen Dugu showed a trace of fatigue: "You should all know the news of the prince's return to Beijing." ”

Yang Guang did not answer, did not nod or shake his head.

"How can you not know such a big matter, what are you going to do with those two Yun family girls?"

It's time to come or come, Yang Guang looked at Queen Dugu seriously.

"Queen Mother, what are you and your father going to do?"

"Yun family, kill."

The queen's answer was very decisive.

This time the incident exceeded everyone's expectations, plus King Wei died at this time, the emperor must have killed a lot of people, although the Yun family sisters were not involved, but who let them be born in the Yun family.

The queen asked Yang Guang at this time to test his mind, she knew that her son was a smart person, he knew what choice was best for him, but at the same time, she also knew that her son was a person who valued affection.

Yang Guang replied: "Queen Mother, a gentleman was born in a small country, and it is not the fault of a gentleman, people cannot choose their own birth, they can only choose their own path. ”

Yang Guang's words were reasonable and expected for Queen Dugu.

Xiao Menglan hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, the two sisters of the Yun family have a good relationship with their daughter-in-law, and they have not been in contact with Yun Dingxing for a long time in the past few years, and they also invite the Queen Mother to learn from it. ”

Queen Dugu looked at Yang Guang and said after being silent for a while.

"This palace doesn't like concubines, and it's disgusting to be pretentious, but it is rumored outside that this palace is jealous and can't tolerate people, if it is really affectionate and generous, this palace has nothing to say, but how many women in the world are like this?"

"The two women of the Yun family have also ordered someone to check, and they really have no contact with Yun Dingxing, and they have been conscientious in doing things in the past two days, and they can be regarded as having a little affection, but this time the matter is more serious than you think, and it is impossible to be good."

Yang Guang said solemnly: "It's all up to the queen mother's arrangement." ”

Queen Dugu said: "As soon as the incident came out yesterday, the palace arranged for someone to take the Yun family sisters out of the palace, arranged for them to be shaved as nuns in the temple, and first recited the scriptures of the third or fifth year, and the heart was light. ”
