"...If the emperor insisted on it, he would be afraid that there would be more noble officials who were unwilling to die, as well as those ordinary people. What's more, the Turks on the grasslands in the north of the Great Sui Dynasty would never just stand aside and watch the show, and they would definitely have some action."

What I fear most is not the people and rebels in the Central Plains, but the grassland people. The nomadic tribes, every time they take advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, they frequently invade the south and plunder everything they can see, whether it is population or artifacts. Because of this, every time the Central Plains decline, it is the opportunity for the grassland to flourish.

It has to be said that this is the sorrow of the Chinese nation. Even if only a small part of these nomadic peoples who were driven away by the Chinese nation eventually arrived in the extreme west, they still brought terrible wounds to the Western barbarians' country.

From this point alone, I have to admire the resilience and persistence of the Chinese nation. Think about it, the remnants of the Huns destroyed the Roman Empire, and the Turks who were beaten to death by the Tang Dynasty made the whole West tremble.

And they were all defeated by the Chinese nation and were beaten to leave their hometowns and flee westward.

"The world is coming, and the troubled times are about to begin. At that time, the Sui Dynasty will lose its deer and all the heroes will chase it..." I said this and sighed, as if in order to meet my words, the last trace of light in the sky just happened to be destroyed in the west of the sky.

The three of them left behind for dinner. Well, it was already time for dinner. My mother greeted the Li brothers and sisters enthusiastically. However, when she saw Li Xuanba's chicken legs, she was also shocked.

"Don't worry, mom, this guy won't be choked even if the whole pig's trotter is stuffed into his mouth." This young master said angrily in his mother's ear, in return for a angry look of her mother. "Go away, there is no such thing as you."

"I was telling the truth." Forget it, I didn't dare to mess with my mother. I was eating and drinking while bragging and spanking Li Shimin.

Li Yaoguang, a girl, seems to be very harmonious with my mother. She looks heroic when she is wearing a helmet and armor, but she seems so understanding and obedient and lovely. The look of her mother looking at Li Yaoguang was as good as the look of her girl, full of pampering.

"I didn't expect that my sister is very popular with your mother." Li Shimin said with a lewd smile. "My sister seems to like to get to your mother."

"Of course, my mother is generous and gentle in character, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to get along with." This young master was half-hearted and half-recal. Li Shimin thought about it and could only nod his head enviously. Hehe, this girl is Queen Dou, and her temperament is exactly the opposite of my mother. Except for when she was with Li Yaoguang, she might have the kindness of her mother, all she saw was decisive and calm and rational at other times.

Unfortunately, in history, she passed away very early, otherwise, with her suppressing it, I even suspected that the history of the Tang Dynasty might have undergone unexpected changes. However, what makes me curious is that it seems that Queen Dou, as recorded in history, should have passed away within one or two years.

But now, Queen Dou looks so lively and has no illness at all. It’s so strange. Of course, I’m not cursing her, I just think it’s strange. Could it be because this young master is a time traveler?

Because I will influence and change history, will their fate change? I touched my chin, looked at Li Xuanba, then looked at Li Shimin and Li Yaoguang. Perhaps there is really a possibility. In this way, this young master can be regarded as the life-saving benefactor of the two members of the old Li family. These two people are naturally Queen Dou and Li Xuanba who died young.

I don’t know what my mother was asking, Li Yaoguang’s pretty face suddenly turned red, and she seemed to glance at me shyly, and then her shy and timid eyes flew away like a cheerful deer, which made the wine cup in my hand almost pour into her nose.

My mother also looked at me. For some reason, I always felt that my mother's eyes were a little weird, but after blinking, I only saw the kindness that showed warmth. Well, is it my illusion?

Luoyang at night seemed extra tranquility, with stars and moon hanging high in the dark sky, embellishing a brilliance that is awesome and relaxing in body and mind. I withdrew my gaze to look up at the stars, took a deep breath, and walked towards the next house, a small courtyard specially prepared for Sister Qingxia.

The two men at the door bowed to me tacitly and pushed open the door. The room inside was shining with warm light from the window, and a beautiful figure with an upper body was barely printed in front of the window.

It seemed that the footsteps were heard outside the house. The beautiful figure reflected on the window paper swayed and disappeared. The door slowly opened, revealing a beautiful and refined face, which was Sister Qingxia.

"How is your injury?" After sitting down, Sister Qingxia brought me a cup of ginger tea, smelled the smell of the interweaving ginger and the tea's clearness, and asked at her with a smile.

"Thank you for your concern. Qing Fu is now very good and can walk around." Sister Qingxia smiled gratefully.

"That's good. I remember when I came to see you a few days ago, you couldn't get out of bed." After taking a sip of ginger tea, my eyes fell on her feet. I remember that there was a long scar on her legs at that time. Unfortunately, her dress blocked her legs tightly and could not see anything. However, the slender lotus feet could see a contour under the cloth socks.

Sister Qingxia's pretty face turned slightly red, her slender feet trembled slightly, but she didn't move. "Young Master is here, won't she just come to visit Qingxia's injuries?"

"Well, I just received the news today that Duke of Chu has been defeated." Looking at her pretty face, I said word by word.

Upon hearing this, Sister Qingxia's pretty face turned pale slightly, and her quiet and peaceful face gradually changed. She seemed a little sad, and she seemed to feel relieved.

After attacking Luoyang but failed, and the army formed a huge encirclement around Luoyang, Yang Xuangan saw that things were not possible, so he decided to obey the words of Li Zixiong, the former Minister of the Civil Affairs Department, who defected to him, and to take Guanzhong west, because as long as he could go straight into Guanzhong and open the Yongfeng warehouse to help the poor, the three auxiliary officers could command and pacify it. Taking over the granary and then fighting for the world eastward is also the overlord's business. Just as the Yang surnames from Huayin asked to be the guide, Yang Xuangan finally made a decision to leave Luoyang.

And on the way, Yang Xuangan spread rumors that he had broken the Dongdu and wanted to seize Guanxi, causing many civil and officials to join the army, and his team became stronger. When he arrived at Hongnong Palace, he was stopped by the elders in the Hongnong Palace and persuaded him to attack the Hongnong Palace, where the troops were empty and the food was crowded. In this way, he could eliminate the enemy's food and grass, and retreat to occupy the territory of Yiyang.

So, Yang Xuangan changed his mind again and insisted on attacking Hongnong Palace despite the persuasion of the generals. Unfortunately, after three days of hard fighting, he failed to take down Hongnong Palace. Instead, he was chased by Yuwen Shu and others.

Yang Xuangan had no choice but to retreat to the township, Shangpandou area, and set up a formation for fifty miles, fighting and walking with the government troops. However, many of the government troops at this moment were elite soldiers of the Great Sui Dynasty of the Sixteen Guards, and Yang Xuangan was unable to attack the city, and his morale was low. In addition, although he gained a large number of followers from the people in the later period, he did not have much combat power, and many people did not even have weapons, only a hoe or even a pitchfork.

Under the fierce culling of elite soldiers led by Yuwen Shu and other generals, they were defeated in battles and even suffered several sets of defeats a day. In the end, they could not stand the torture of being chased, and they knew very well that if they were defeated, they would probably dissipate their hearts and morale. Yang Xuangan set up a battle formation at Dong Duyuan, intending to fight the decisive battle with the official army.

However, the gap in strength cannot be made up by the number. Nearly 100,000 rebels gathered again were defeated under the fierce attacks of Yuwen Shu, Wei Xuan, Qu Tutong, Duan Da and other armies.

Yang Xuangan led a dozen spirit cavalry and his brother Yang Jishan to Shangluo from the forest. When he arrived at Jialushu, he finally realized that Yang Xuangan, who was desperate, asked his brother to kill him to avoid being humiliated alive.

"I didn't expect that I would lose so quickly." Sister Qingxia raised her head, looked at the oil lamp placed on the table, looked at the swaying lights, and said slowly. "Pity my sisters..."

Inside his black eyes, crystal tears gradually rose, and a drop of tears fell down his cheeks, falling on his clothes, splashing slight splashes. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, as if he was laughing, but he was so cold and desperate. "It's really not worth it. When I think about it now, it's really not worth it at all. They should just run away with me."

"Don't be too sad. Life and death are fate. Some things, when they make a decision, fate has already made a choice." I sighed and moved a few steps, held her hand lovingly, and patted her gently. "At least you are still alive, aren't you?"

"But I have nothing, my mother, my father, they are all dead, and my home is gone." In her choked voice, there was endless despair and desolation. When did her head lean on my shoulder, the wet and hot tears slid down the collar of my chest and soaked in.

I gently hugged her shoulder and patted her gently. At this moment, I didn't know what to say to comfort her. In less than a month, she became nothing. At that time, she was in the Duke of Chu's mansion, probably a real power figure similar to the butler. Now, everything has become a bubble. And even her life is almost lost. In the days to come, she can only hide her name and don't know when it will be.
