Yang Ming, who had been resting at home for two months, finally returned to the East Palace.
As soon as he came back, Yang Guang replaced him, because he had an excuse this time, and the excuse was to strengthen the security of the prince. After all, the Xuanwu Sect incident was making a big fuss, and Yang Guang had reason to strengthen the security for his son.
There are two generals in the East Palace eight, a total of twelve people, because there are two deputy commanders on the left and right.
Zuowei led Li Jing to become the general of Zuoyuwei, so naturally he could not hold the post concurrently. Yang Guang was replaced by Mai Zhongcai, the son of Mai Tiezhang, and his deputy led Tang Jian in the capital, so he did not move.
The right guard led Yang Xuanting to attack Duke Feng Qiao. Yang Guang wanted to move but did not dare to move. The deputy leader was still Zheng Yuanshou, who was in the capital.
The left Wushi leader did not change. The right Wushi leader was originally the eldest grandson Xingbu, but he had been kicked out long ago and was replaced by Dugu Zuan's eldest son Dugu Yin. Originally Yang Ming arranged for Dugu Yin to go to the province, but Yang Guang
Kicked people out.
Yang Wanshi, the leader of Yuhou on the left, could no longer do the job, so Yang Guang promoted Yu Xi to take the post, and Gao Biaoren, the leader of Yuhou on the right, was appointed.
No other positions have been changed, except that a guard force has been added, led by Duan Wenzhen's son Duan Jin, with two thousand people. In name, it is to increase the security of the East Palace, but in fact it is to monitor the prince.
The struggle between father and son has gradually become clear, and each has its own tricks.
During Yang Ming's first court meeting after his return, he did not go through Xuanwu Gate. Instead, he took a long way around and deliberately entered the palace through the main entrance of the imperial city in full view of hundreds of officials.
Along the way, all the officials congratulated the prince one after another, congratulating him on bringing peace to the world and on his recovery.
"Li Shimin has entered Lingnan, Liu Yuanjin is in charge of Poyang, and the south has been settled," said Yang Da, the provincial governor: "Then should we let Duke Rong come back?"
Zhang Jin shook his head and said: "It's not the right time yet, Jiangdu still has Duke Rong in charge, which makes people more reassured."
At this time, Yang Jing looked at Yang Ming and said proactively: "Prince, please don't think too much. The people who spread rumors in the capital have already arrested and imprisoned 300 people, and executed thousands of people on the spot. Dali Temple is already on trial."
, we will soon be able to find out the real culprit behind the scenes and see who is driving a wedge between our brothers."
Instead of holding back, it is better to speak out proactively. Yang Xian's purpose is to make Yang Ming relax his guard with his honesty.
Yang Ming is now truly the number one person in the military. His prestige is so high that when he sits here, the atmosphere is different.
He smiled and said: "Brother, you are overthinking it. I have never taken this kind of underhanded tactics to heart."
Yang Guang smiled and said: "You, you must take good care of your health from now on. If you go through life and death on the battlefield, you will definitely get the root of your disease. I hope you are well."
King Cai Yang Zhiji narrowed his eyes and felt horrified, "Good guy, are you really planning to deal with the prince?"
Nominally, Yang Guang was concerned about his son's health, but he didn't tell everyone that the prince had already contracted the disease because he went out to lead the army, so it would be reasonable for the prince to suddenly die of illness in the future.
The marching environment in ancient times was very harsh. Not to mention other things, traveling around in the wind and sun took a lot of damage to the body. Whether you would get sick or not depended entirely on luck.
Under the command of Zhang Xutuo in Shandong, as many as a hundred people died because of a small tick. It can be seen that dangers are everywhere when going out.
Yang Ming said: "My son, I thank you for your concern. I will definitely take a good rest."
At the moment, Yang Guang has no plans to leave Luoyang, because Luoyang is the center of the world and all parties are not completely at peace at the moment, so it is most appropriate to sit in Luoyang and overlook Jiuzhou.
At today's court meeting, nothing important was said. They just urged Qiu He and Xuan Jiao to wipe out Xiao Mian's remaining rebels as soon as possible. As for the matter of judging merit for the prince, no one mentioned it.
Near the end of the court meeting, an urgent report on the military situation of Six Hundred Miles was sent to Qianyang Hall.
"Your Majesty, Su Lie captured Jieli alive, burned Dujin Mountain, and is leading his army back to Jinyang."
In an instant, the whole court was in an uproar.
Yang Guang was instantly overjoyed. He stood up suddenly and said, "The trouble from the north that has lasted for a hundred years can be eliminated in one day. I have nothing to worry about."
The ministers congratulated one after another. Yes, strictly speaking, Yang Guang was first, Yang Ming was second, and Su Lie was third.
So after congratulating the emperor, it is natural to congratulate Yang Ming and Su Lie's father-in-law Pei Renji.
Pei Renji was elated and smiled from ear to ear.
Needless to say, when Su Lie comes back this time, his level will definitely surpass that of Pei Renji.
"This is a contribution to the destruction of the country, and he should be granted the title of Duke," Dou Kang said.
Capturing Jieli alive, although it can't be said to have wiped out the Eastern Turks, is almost the same. For half a year, there has been no news from Su Lie's lone army that penetrated into Mobei. Who would have thought that the first time the news came back, it would be so huge. Good thing.
Yang Jian chuckled and said: "Isn't it inappropriate to be granted the title of Duke at such a young age? There is not only one Jieli among the eighteen grassland tribes. If Jieli is gone, there will be someone else named Khan. How can we call it the destruction of the country?"
Li Jing said in a deep voice: "Although the country of Goguryeo has perished, the people are still there, so does it count as the destruction of the country? Sulie captured as many as 137 Turkic leaders and half of the Turkic royal family. This cannot be called the destruction of the country. ?”
Yang Jian did not dare to discuss the topic of Goguryeo because his father personally conquered Goguryeo:
"Haha... Just praise him hard. I'll see if a person from a commoner background can hold on to such wealth."
Yu Shiji also said: "It is indeed not appropriate to make a big seal. After all, you are still young and have a long way to go. You can take your time."
Mai Tiezhang, who is also a commoner and Su Lie's brother, said: "Since ancient times, heroes have been young, and the champions have been awarded the title of Langjuxu. They are only twenty-two years old. Dujin Mountain and Langjuxu Mountain are next to each other."
Fenglangjuxu is neither a title nor a position. It is the ultimate dream of every military commander. Later generations often use it to describe a unique top-level military exploit.
In ancient times, sealing the wolf to Juxu meant reaching the lair of the northern nomads, capturing the leader, and carving a stone to record his merits. People with such achievements would often move to Huo Qubing to speak out.
Historically, only Huo Qubing and a few other people were actually given the title of Xu. They were the people who swept away the Mobei, defeated the nomads, and made top contributions to the country's border problems. In addition to Huo Qubing, there were five other people who were recognized as He has the merit of sealing the wolf to his home.

"Old Tang Book" commented on Su Lie: He destroyed the three kingdoms before and after, and captured their masters alive. In history, it was Su Lie who destroyed the Western Turks. In this life, he destroyed the Eastern Turks.
Su Lie is twenty-six years old this year, so there are some tough battles that can only be done by young people, not older ones.
No matter how much anyone says about this merit, the Duke of the country will never be able to escape.
Yang Guang didn't want to ban him because he knew that Su Lie was trained by Lao San. Once he was banned, Lao San would become even more powerful.
But this was a real act of annihilation of the country. Yu Wenshu, as the nominal second-in-command in the expedition to Goguryeo, was sealed as Sikong. He could not be denied to the Duke of Su Lie because of his origin.
In fact, for a general born as a commoner to be granted the title of Duke, it has a huge impact on the stability of the country.
Because this will make some wishful people think that they can do it too.
Is it possible? There is only one Su Lie in this world.
So Yang Guangdao said: "I worship Su Dingfang as the Duke of the country. I will live in the city for 3,000 households. I will give him a sword, a dragon colt, 500 slaves, and he will be granted the title of General of Hussars."
This means that Su Lie replaced Wei Yunqi and became the nominal top general of the capital's city defense.
General Hussar is not just in charge of Daxing. If he is in Luoyang, he is also in charge of Luoyang, that is, these two places. When he goes to Jinyang and Jiangdu, no one will ignore him.
For such military achievements, you must arrange for actual duties in the military government, but Yang Guang doesn't want to do this, so it would be most appropriate to give him someone who is very powerful in name but not very powerful in reality.
On the capital side, Hu Sizheng, the Minister of War, needed to welcome the general back to the capital on behalf of the emperor, so he had to go to Jinyang to show the emperor's true love for Su Lie.
Moreover, the imperial court would also reward the people of Luoyang with food and wine to celebrate this achievement, which would undoubtedly be a shot in the arm for the current decadent imperial situation.
The huge victory in external battles was a powerful soothing medicine internally, and also enhanced the emperor's own prestige.
After hearing the news, people in the East Palace were already celebrating.
After all, Su Lie came from here, and everyone was happy for him, and they were also looking forward to their future.
Because Su Lie was trained by the prince, and they were also trained by the prince. Now that Su Lie has taken the lead and achieved fame, others will think, when will it be my turn?
Yang Yuanqing was both happy and unhappy. What he was happy about was that Su Lie was so awesome and the carp jumped over the dragon's gate. What he was unhappy about was, why the hell didn't I go?
If I go, the first prize will definitely be mine.
In ancient times, there were four major military merits: beheading generals, capturing flags, trapping battles, and ascending first.
Among them, it is not the beheading of the generals who has the greatest credit, but the first to climb the city wall, that is, the first to climb the city wall during the siege, because the first batch of people to climb the city wall must be the dead soldiers. If they escape from death, they are the death squads. In order to let the soldiers
He is willing to die, so the credit for being the first to ascend is determined to be great, and the lowest is the title of marquis.
For example, Yang Yuanqing and Shen Guang of Liaodong City were the first to climb. Quick success and first climbing are two kinds of merit.
Zhang Juzheng and He Shen were both ancestors who started their careers first.
The first to climb down is to kill the general. For example, how did the famous Hongnong Yang family get started? The ancestor Yang Xi, a small officer, got one of Xiang Yu's legs and was named Chiquanhou, which brought thousands of years of glory to the family.
Among the four major military merits, the merit of destroying a country is not included. After all, in history, this merit is not much. It is a rare merit.
But among military achievements, the achievement of destroying a country is absolutely second to none.
The most lively place now is Pei Renji's house. After the court meeting, all the bigwigs from all parties went to their house to congratulate them. After all, this Duke of Dai was not an assassin, but a real contributor. He was the number one in the Sui Dynasty.
A prince of the country.
Su Lie's own house was also very lively, but the people who came here to congratulate were of a much lower level. After all, Su Lie was not at home.
Pei Shuying also came to Su Lie's house immediately.
Pei Shu was now the wife of the Duke of the State, also known as the Lady of the State. She was a first-grade waifu, already several levels higher than Li Jiancheng's daughter-in-law.
His nickname is Yu Qing and his eldest name is Su Qingjie. He is only three years old and can be called a young master.
