Chapter 674: Fighting tiger brothers
Yang Ji has always believed that the Guanlong nobles and Shandong nobles hate him the most, but in fact, he can only be ranked second, so who is the first? Naturally, he is to guard against the Guanlong nobles and the Shandong nobles.
Yang Liang felt quite miserable.
These two major political forces did not agree with Yang Guang, who was as strong as Yang Jian. They were afraid that Yang Guang would continue to follow Yang Jian's established route, so they silently supported Yang Liang in the second year of Renshou before launching the Renshou Palace coup. They wanted to
To cause chaos in the world and overthrow Yang Jian, everything that is not conducive to them
The policy spent a huge amount of manpower and material resources on Yang Liang, which gradually gave birth to Yang Liang's ambitions. However, Yang Liang went against it, but he failed too quickly and miserably, resulting in the huge investment of the two major political parties.
Like a stone sinking into the ocean, it sank without even a splash rising.
Those who supported him were afraid of being betrayed and liquidated. As soon as they heard that he was surrendering in Xiantaiyuan City, they immediately asked Yang Guang to kill the living man. However, Yang Guang said, "We are always brothers. I can't bear to spare his death."
So he was reduced to a common people and expelled from the royal family.
Afterwards, Yang Liang turned out to be what those people feared. Instead of committing suicide, he used the evidence in his hands to sell out all those who had supported him. He survived, but because of his betrayal,
As a result, many people were brutally liquidated by Yang Guang.
Who doesn't hate this kind of bastard who has no martial ethics?
Compared with Yang Liang, the fourth child, Yang Xiu, had much less worries; Yang Xiu was gradually deprived of power by Yang Jian as early as the founding of the emperor, and was not captured by Yang Jian until the second year of Renshou. He did not have as many dirty things as Yang Liang.
, there are not that many enemies. Of course, this is only relative, because under Yang Jian's guidance, Yang Xiu also cheated more than a hundred people, including Yuan Yan and Yuan Heng.
Although the two brothers became commoners, Yang Guang did not treat his younger brother badly. He always allowed them to Daxing the Imperial Palace in the southwest corner of the palace city. The Imperial Palace covers an area larger than any of the three provinces, and half of it is divided into
Half of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is used to house the two of them. Except that they cannot leave the compound, everything is as usual.
The two families and the orphans of Qin Wang Yang Jun and Yang Yong each lived in a large courtyard, and the four families could move around freely at ordinary times, which was quite lively.
At noon, Yang Xiu and Yang Liang were summoned by Yang Guang to the back garden of Anren Hall. The three brothers were sitting in a pavilion.
Although Yang Xiu and Yang Liang didn't know why Yang Guang suddenly summoned them, the two brothers were determined to seize the throne and have official careers. Instead, they saw some things through. After several years of communication, many things that were previously unintelligible suddenly became clear.
Cheerful: Their father played a big game of chess during his lifetime. The brothers were all pawns in his father's hands, and even Yang Guang was no exception. Even if Yang Guang became emperor, he could only follow his father's established national policy.
There was no chance to even look back and adjust.
The difference is that the second child was chosen by his father to be the next chess player, and they are the chess pieces. They were very reluctant before, but now, they find that they are really not chess players. If they change places with Yang Guang, they will be picked by others.
I don’t know how to play to death.
The stone table in the middle was filled with delicacies from all over the world. Yang Guang looked at Yang Xiu and Yang Liang who were silent and had complicated expressions. He found that the two of them were much more calm and indifferent than before, and Yang Liang's eyes no longer had the unruly look.
, seemed to have put it down. He picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass for each of the three brothers.
"Fourth, fifth, let the past matter go by." Yang Guang put down the wine bottle and said to the two of them: "I dare not say that I am more capable than Aye, but I have not lived up to Aye's high expectations.
The Sui Dynasty is flourishing in my hands, becoming stronger and stronger step by step. Now Tuyuhun is over. Tuyuhun is four thousand miles from east to west and two thousand miles from north to south. All the old lands belong to the Sui Dynasty."
"Seriously?" After hearing this, Yang Xiu and Yang Liang both looked at Yang Guang, their eyes full of shock.
"Exactly!" Yang Guang nodded, and said to Yang Liang with a half-smile: "This battle was done by Vajra Slave, Lao Wu should know how powerful that kid is!"
"Hey, that little bastard is so cunning. He lied to me so miserably. Fortunately, I thought he was a good brother before..." Yang Guang's words made Yang Liang's face darken.
It was fine for him to be defeated, but he was tricked by that little bastard Yang Ji afterwards: when they were in Taiyuan City, the two brothers had made a good deal, as long as he handed over the evidence of his crime, Yang Ji would quietly transport him back to Daxing
City, to intercede for him. Unexpectedly, that little bastard has no martial ethics. As soon as he got what he wanted, he immediately turned his back on his promise, turned his back on the person, and then returned to Beijing with great fanfare, dragging many, many incriminating evidence that were not incriminating evidence.
When those people with guilty consciences heard that it was Yang Liang's crime, they all believed it. I personally thought that more than a hundred cars and treasures were evidence of crime, so before he was escorted to Daxing City, those damn bastards wanted Yang Guang to execute him.
, I hope he will die without any evidence.
But Yang Liang had already figured it out, and he was still very grateful to Yang Ji in his heart. He knew that Yang Ji did this for his own good, to protect him, and because Yang Ji made such a fuss that everyone wanted to beat him up.
Mouse no longer has any personal connections, and Yang Guang will naturally not regard him as a threat. It will definitely not be a problem for him to die in this life.
"You have to be grateful to him!" Yang Guang said with a smile.
Yang Liang was silent for a long time and asked Yang Guang: "I'm very curious. Aye clearly knows that my strengthening of Taiyuan's defense is an excuse to recruit troops. Why did he agree?"
Although Yang Guang didn't want to attack him, he still said: "Aye knew that you had the intention to rebel. He expected that once he died, you would definitely rebel. So he let it go."
Yang Liang was not a fool after all. He slowly came to his senses and said in shock: "I understand, Aye and you are aiming at the Guanlong nobles and the restless people among the Shandong nobles. You want to take advantage of the opportunity to suppress the rebellion.
Catch all these people in one fell swoop!"
This plan was far-sighted and extremely bold, trapping almost everyone who opposed Yang Guang and all policies of the Sui Dynasty, and then caught them all in one fell swoop, establishing Yang Guang's supreme authority.
"But you, you, aren't you afraid that I will win?" Yang Liang asked stammering.
"At first, Aye and I were not afraid, and we didn't think you could defeat the 700,000 Beijing soldiers." At this point, Yang Guang's face became extremely ugly, and he snorted coldly: "However, after you started the rebellion,
At the beginning, there were 700,000 soldiers from the capital, and I actually
You can't even command 50,000 soldiers, and I heard that you are going to directly attack Guanzhong. I can't sleep at night!" At this point, Yang Guang glanced at Yang Liang and said, "Aye is still good, he would have killed you long ago.
You have seen through it all, so I don’t have to worry.”
"What did Aye say?" Now, even Yang Xiu became curious.
"Aye said that Lao Wu is stupid and can't win at all, so I can rest assured." Yang Guang said: "As expected by Aye, Lao Wu is strong and capable. As long as he marches to Guanzhong firmly,
, those internal agents must offer their services to the city, and in this way, he will definitely win. Fortunately, the old five idiots..."
"..." Yang Liang was beaten to pieces and became insane! But this is the fact. If he was smart, he would not give up his plan to enter Guanzhong and capture Yang Guang alive.
Yang Guang added: "But there is one thing, Lao Wu is very smart..."
"Which point, which point?" Yang Liang looked at Yang Guang expectantly and asked anxiously. He hoped that he was not so stupid.
Yang Guang said: "You did not lead the Turkic soldiers southward!"
"Although I rebelled, when I was in Bingzhou, I led troops to fight the Turks from time to time. No matter how stupid or stupid I am, I will never lead the foreigners south." Yang Liang said angrily: "You can also say such a thing? I am that person?
Are you a bastard who forgets his ancestors?"
Yang Guang looked at him calmly and asked: "You dare to rebel. If you are not a bastard, who is?"
Yang Liang was dumbfounded for a long time, and said dejectedly: "This, these are two different things, they cannot be confused!"
"It's two different things. It's you who didn't lead the Turkic soldiers south, so I say you're smart!" Seeing that the atmosphere was already getting heated, Yang Guang stopped teasing Yang Liang and returned to the topic: "Tuyuhun just fell in front of me.
The first country, and then there are many more. But the Yang family needs the Yang family to protect the world, and only the Yang family is reliable. I hope you will come out and help me!"
After hearing Yang Guang's words, Yang Xiu shook his head: "Thank you very much, saint, for your kindness, but after years of reflection, I found that I am really not a good person. Now I just want to spend the rest of my life in peace and stability, and I have no intention of pursuing an official career.
"
"Sage, the fourth brother is right! I don't have this intention anymore. Now I just hope that the Sui Dynasty will become stronger and stronger." Yang Liang looked at Yang Guang and said sincerely: "Although we can't do it for the Sui Dynasty or the saint.
What, but at least it can guarantee that it will not cause trouble to the Sui Dynasty or the saints."
Yang Guang nodded and asked: "I already understand your intentions, and I will not force others to do anything. But if someone wants to destroy our Sui Dynasty and destroy my Yang family, what should you do?"
A big hat suddenly fell from the sky, and Yang Xiu said without hesitation: "Although we are not officials, we are inseparable from the Sui Dynasty and the Yang family. If the Sui Dynasty is not good and the Yang family is not good, we will not be here either.
What a happy ending. If someone really plans to destroy our Sui Dynasty and destroy our Yang family, no matter what aspect we consider, we cannot stand idly by."
Yang Liang also said: "What the fourth brother said is absolutely true. Today's Sui Dynasty is dominated by Aye. If anyone dares to think about this, I will make his blood splash on the spot even if I have no soldiers or generals."
"If you think so, you have lived up to the expectations of Aye and Aniang! Very good, very good!" Yang Guang laughed loudly and raised his glass: "I also promise you in person today that as long as I am here; you and I
My niece and nephew, Wuyou, come and do it!"
"Do it!" Yang Xiu and Yang Liang also raised their glasses excitedly. Only after getting Yang Guang's personal promise did they feel that they were completely safe.
The three brothers drank three cups in a row, and the pressure and restraint in Yang Xiu's heart was reduced a lot. He asked Yang Guang: "The sage just said that someone wants to destroy our Sui Dynasty and destroy our Yang family, but I don't know who it is?"
"Who else could it be?" Yang Liang continued, "Of course it's the Guanlong nobles who made the 700,000-strong army stand still."
Yang Guang nodded secretly after hearing this. Lao Wu still had some brains. He said, "Actually, it's not just the Guanlong nobles, but almost all the noble families have this idea."
Yang Liang was taken aback and asked, "Is this really true?"
"That's true!" Yang Guang nodded, and said solemnly to the two of them: "The world in the Sui Dynasty was too big, and the royal family had too many enemies, but our royal family has only a few people. Just relying on the efforts of King Kong Nu and Zhiji, it is
It is far from enough. As the saying goes, brothers fight against tigers, and father and son go into battle. I hope you will also do your part, instead of standing idly by and watching indifferently."
Yang Xiu heard Yang Guang's intention to use them. He pondered for a long time and asked in a deep voice: "But what does the saint want us to do?"
"It's hard to say now! Later, I will show you some files to let you understand the current situation." Yang Guang glanced at the two people, and then said: "When you understand everything, you will know that the Sui Dynasty looks like
It looks glamorous and prosperous, but in fact it is full of undercurrents and dangers. Now that you have seen it clearly, we can sit down and talk in detail."
"Okay!" Yang Xiu didn't refuse. He and Yang Liang had been "at home" for a long time and were out of touch with the outside world. It was better to understand the present first.
