Yang Guang's eyes flashed with a hint of distress.

Empress Xiao is pitiful, she has been tortured by her predecessor for what she has been, and the timid look when she speaks is really pitiful to me.

"Concubine Ai, don't worry, I will never be a slave to the country or an unlucky ghost emperor. If I want to do it, I will be the first emperor in history! ”

Hearing this, Empress Xiao was stunned.

When did Your Majesty become so talkative?

Not only did he not beat her, but he listened to her words?

"Your Majesty, you are like this, the concubine is very uncomfortable.."

Yang Guang laughed: "It's not good for me to be a Mingjun?" But Ai Concubine, you also know that it is not so simple to be a Ming Jun, and now there are countless internal and external troubles, and there is really a lack of manpower around me. ”

"What does Your Majesty mean?"

Yang Guang's smile retracted, and he said, "I need your help." ”

Empress Xiao is a native of Nanlanling and a descendant of Emperor Wu of Liang.

Her father, Emperor Liang Ming, although he had already died of illness, the team of the Xiao family army he formed before his death has always existed to this day.

The Xiaoguo Army formed by the predecessor was largely inspired by the Xiao Jiajun.

The Xiao family army has a scale of tens of thousands of people, known as an invincible army, and participated in hundreds of battles large and small with Xiao Yue's southern expedition to the north.

In Yang Guang's eyes, during the Sui and Tang dynasties, there were two armies worthy of his best efforts.

One is the Wagangzhai under Li Mi, and the other is this Xiao Jiajun!

"Your Majesty, do you want the concubine to contact the eldest brother and summon him to Jiangdu?" Empress Xiao was slightly stunned, and soon understood Yang Guang's plan.

Yang Guang pinched Queen Xiao's earlobe: "Concubine Ai is really smart." ”

"It's okay to write a letter to the eldest brother, but the concubine is worried, and the eldest brother refuses to come." Empress Xiao's beautiful eyes flashed, and she said with some hesitation.

A trace of arc appeared at the corner of Yang Guang's mouth: "This letter is written by me personally, and I believe that after he reads the letter, he will come to Jiangdu within three days!" ”

"Good!" Yang Guang's confident appearance exuded an indescribable charm, and Empress Xiao looked at it and fell into shyness again.

The next day, Yang Guang summoned Li Qian, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Wang Yang, the waiter of the Ministry of War, in the imperial study.

The reason is simple.

In the official ladder of the Great Sui, the five Shangshu are undoubtedly the most important link.

The five departments are in charge of the affairs of the Great Sui.

Yu Wenhua and being able to become a powerful minister who controls the court are inseparable from the fact that he has the support of the three Shangshu. Now that the Yuwen clan is powerful, it no longer needs the help of the five Shangshu.

But he is different, if he has always been alone, then he will never really overthrow culture in this life.

With Fang Hansheng's great help from the outside and the support of the court officials inside, this is the prerequisite for him to calm down the internal troubles!

"Minister Li Qian."

"Chen Wang Yang."

"I've seen Your Majesty!"

The two bowed to Yang Guangzheng.

"Aiqing, please get up." Yang Guang stepped forward to help them up, and then took off his coat, revealing the thorns wrapped around his back.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, what do you mean, why do you have to bear the guilt?" The two of them were taken aback at the same time.

As he spoke, he was going to take down the thorns for Yang Guang.

Yang Guang raised his hand to stop them, and said seriously: "Two Aiqing, I have caused the Great Sui to almost perish, not to mention the guilt of Jing Jing, even if you immediately apologize for your sin, it is not an exaggeration!" ”

"I, I'm ashamed of all of you, and I'm ashamed of the people of Dasui!"

Yang Guang's words were sincere, which made Wang Yang and Li Jian look at each other, shocked, Your Majesty is planning to turn back the prodigal son?

The two of them had mixed feelings in their hearts, and before that, they had already been completely disappointed in Yang Guang.

They did not defect to Yu Wenhua and his subordinates, not because of how loyal they were to Yang Guang, but because the first emperor had the grace of knowing these two people, and they did not want to betray the Great Sui.

Now Yang Guang is guilty of pleading, which undoubtedly has a strong impact on their hearts, at this moment all the dissatisfaction and estrangement towards Yang Guang have disappeared, and the two of them knelt down towards Yang Guang at the same time, shouting: "Your Majesty has something to order, and the ministers are willing to go to the soup for Your Majesty, and they will not give up!" ”

Seeing this, Yang Guang was overjoyed.

It seems that the matter of pleading guilty can have unexpected effects at any time!

In this way, some of the other small means he prepared will naturally not be used.

"Your Majesty, you have changed, you have really changed, whether it is today's guilt or yesterday's public opposition to Yu Wenhua and some of his views, the ministers are very pleased." Wang Yang almost stopped crying as he spoke, after all, he had waited for this day for too long.

Li Jian also said: "This is what a Ming monarch should look like, if Your Majesty can wake up earlier, why would our Great Sui be trapped in Jiangdu?" ”

Yang Guang nodded heavily: "Two Aiqing, I understand what you said, but I also want to tell you that he is very cultured, and he won't be able to jump for a few days." ”

Li Jian and Wang Yang kept kowtowing, and tears wet the ground.

"Okay, two Aiqing, you and I don't have to be so sad between the monarch and the minister, let's get down to business."

Yang Guangdao: "Now I urgently need the power of the five departments to fundamentally restore real power, what do you two think about this?" ”

Li Jian looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty, please forgive the minister's words, it is basically impossible for you to get help from the five departments in a short period of time. ”

"Why?"

Wang Yang smiled bitterly: "Let's not talk about the other three Shangshu, as for the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War of the Minister and Lord Li Qian, although they have not really been taken over by the people of the Yuwen clan until now, under the interference of Yu Wenhua, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War have long existed in name only." ”

"The minister is still the secretary of the military department, not to mention interfering in the army, in the army, the minister's words are not even as effective as Yu Wenhua and a slave in the house."

"So, I'm really helpless?" Yang Guang's brows furrowed tightly, he knew that the situation he was facing would be terrible, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

"Your Majesty, don't be so disappointed." Li Jian reminded: "Didn't the minister hear that Mr. Fang Yusheng Fang came to Jiangdu with a group of archers? With him here, presumably Yu Wenhua didn't dare to take Your Majesty what would happen to you. ”

Yang Guang rubbed his eyebrows: "What I care about is not my own safety. ”

After thinking for a while, Yang Guang immediately clenched his fists and said: "Forget it, let's take one step at a time, he Yu Wenhua is just a slave of mine after all, I don't believe that he is really putting the cart before the horse in the end!" ”

"Your Majesty has this belief, and the future of the Great Sui can be expected!" Li Jian and Wang Yang showed a hint of smile at the same time, after several years of darkness, they finally saw a glimmer of rising dawn in Yang Guang's body.

Although this glimmer of dawn is still very faint, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, as long as Yang Guang has the courage to fight and fight bravely, this country will still be his sooner or later!
