Yuwen Shu hurriedly got off the boat with the eunuch and walked towards the dragon boat. As soon as she got off the boat, she saw Yingyanglang general Yang Xuanzong walking towards the gangway with an extremely tall and fat young man. It seemed that she was going to get on the boat to find Xuangan.

Yuwen Shu smiled and said, "Xuan Zong, who is this child?"
Yang Xuanzong quickly bowed and said, "This is my nephew, come from the capital to report the news."
"Oh! Is there anything at home?" Yuwen Shu asked curiously.
"It's a happy event! Yuan Qing got a son last month."
Yang Yuanqing actually got a son. Yuwen Shu narrowed her eyes and said in a teasing tone: "Then congratulations to the Yang Mansion for winning the grandson."
He smiled, turned around and left. Yang Xuanzong heard a sarcastic meaning in his tone. When Yuwen Shu walked away, he rushed to his back with a heavy blow. "Phoa!" and turned to Yang Wei and said, "See! The family is incompatible.
, you will be despised by outsiders."
Yang Wei didn't say anything. He came to find Guan Wang Yang Xiong, but met Yang Xuanzong, who was patrolling halfway. He was caught by Yang Xuanzong and brought him to see the head of the family.
"Walk!"
Seeing that he did not answer him, Yang Xuanzong felt a little unhappy, so he took him onto the big ship and came to his brother Xuangan's cabin.
Yang Xuangan is the Minister of Rites and a high-ranking official of the court. His cabin is one level lower than Yuwen Shu, and there are only three cabins. Yang Xuangan is surrounded by a book boy and two maids. At this time, he is drinking with Li Mi, the Duke of Pushan County.
Chatting, the eldest son Yang Jun also sat aside.
Yang Jun has been transferred to the Ministry of Revenue and has little power. He is taciturn and has a very cunning life. No one knows what he is thinking. Even his father can't understand his thoughts. He doesn't say a word, but he is unwilling to say a word.
He raised his ears and listened to the conversation between his father and Li Mi.
Li Mi and Yang Xuangan have a very strong relationship. They can talk about everything and be honest. Li Mi is thirty years old this year. She is tall and has a high nose and looks very extraordinary. He is also a versatile talent in civil and military affairs, with great ambitions.
The current situation has profound insights.
Li Mi inherited his father's title of Duke of Pushan County, but he did not become an official. He has been studying at home in the past few years. Although he did not leave the house, he was concerned about the major affairs of the world. This time, Yang Guang's tour was not his business, but he did not do it.
Yang Xuangan's relationship went on a tour together.
Li Mi could see that Yang Xuangan was in great concern, so she asked with a smile: "Brother Xuangan is worried about national affairs or family affairs?"
Yang Xuan sighed, "National affairs are worrying, family affairs are bothersome, but family affairs are uneasy, so how can we talk about state affairs?"
Li Mi was about to speak, but he glanced at Yang Jun next to him and swallowed the words back into his stomach. Yang Xuangan's son was too cunning, which made him a little scared. (Free download of full text e-book)
Yang Xuangan understood what Li Mi meant. Seeing that his son had finished his meal, he said to him: "You go back first! If you have anything, I'll look for you."
Yang Jun didn't say anything, stood up and walked out. Yang Xuangan looked at his back and shook his head, "This child is not good-looking, too heavy, a bit like his mother. In comparison, I still like it.
Rong'er, although she is a little stupid, she is still relatively straightforward."
Li Mi smiled. When his parents looked at his son, they always thought about it in a good way. He knew Yang Rong very well, but it was not as simple as stupid. He let his actions go wildly and was just an unworthy playboy. Yang Xuangan's real wealth was still Yuan Qing.
Unfortunately, the Yang family couldn't handle it well and lost a good opportunity to revitalize the family business.
Li Mi did not want to participate in Xuangan's family affairs, so she changed the topic and asked a smile: "I heard that the emperor would not go back to the capital this time, so he went directly to Zhuo County?"
Yang Xuangan nodded, "I was going to go back to Beijing, but the emperor heard that the local officials in Shandong were a little resistant to the Battle of Goryeo, so he wanted to go and supervise it himself."
Li Mi sneered, "It's not as simple as resistance, it's because the officials are scared. Last year, I went to Qi County, Qinghe and other counties to inspect, and then I realized the seriousness of the disaster there, such as Hebei floods and Henan droughts, hunger people everywhere, and people are in poverty,
Last year, 600,000 people were entrusted to deliver food, but only 30% of the food was delivered to Liaodong. 40% of the 600,000 people died, 30% fled, and the remaining 300% went home empty-handed. All 300,000 cows were gone. What should I do this year?
The emperor not only does not compassionate, but also needs to increase taxes and grain collection. This edict forced two million people to go to Liaodong. If I did not make a mistake in judgment, a major uprising would break out in the Qi area this year. If it is not extinguished in time, the Sui generals
The country is destroyed!”
Yang Xuangan knew that Li Mi had a lofty experience and asked, "Will it be so serious?"
Li Mi sneered repeatedly, and he lowered his voice and said, "Donald Ming still remembers Yang Liang's rebellion? Yang Liang is restless and uncultivated, and he has no virtue. What kind of virtue can he do? He raised his arms and shouted, and there were twenty counties in Shandong.
Is it strange that he rebelled?"
Yang Xuangan frowned, "What do you mean is that some people have ulterior motives and want to take advantage of the situation?"
Li Mi nodded slowly, "Gao Huan started his family with the six towns of warriors and established the Northern Qi Dynasty. Although the Gao family was destroyed, the descendants of the six towns of warriors were still there. At that time, 200,000 six towns of warriors were placed in Hebei and Shandong, and their descendants were reproduced.
There are no less than one million, and the strong ones have not been lost. The remains of Northern Qi are still there, and they are not convinced by the Sui Dynasty. Yang Liang rebelled, and even if they follow the troubled waters, the emperor also saw that, and decided to move the capital to Luoyang, and on the one hand, they will leave Guanlong.
Control, on the one hand, encourages Qi land and has the convenience of going to the south of the Yangtze River. It can be said that it will win three goals in one fell swoop. This time, the national expedition to Goryeo will have a tenfold impact on people's livelihood than the canal. It is a disaster in Hebei and Henan, and the people are unable to bear it. Six towns
How could they not rebel with the strong style of descendants? How could those remnants of Northern Qi not use it? Therefore, there will be great chaos in Qi."
Li Mi sighed and stared at Yang Xuangan with bright eyes, "Sui Dynasty lost its deer, and the people of the world chased it. I wonder if the Ming Gong has great ambitions?"
Yang Xuangan remembered his father's suicide note, and his eyes showed a strong ambition. He asked not to hide it anymore and asked, "What if I have this intention?"
Li Mi smiled slightly, "If Ming Gong had this intention, I would have a good idea to consider."
Yang Xuangan was overjoyed and bowed, "Please give me advice!"
"I guess the nobles of Guanlong will take the lead in attacking. Ming Gong can withstand waiting for a good opportunity. He will connect with Yuanqing in the north and the heroes of the south. When the world is in chaos, wars are everywhere. When the court is unable to suppress it, he will call again, and use the prestige of the ancestors of the king.
There will inevitably be heroes from all sides to come to the scene. The public will occupy Guanzhong and get the foundation. Then they will conquer Longyou in the west, pacify Bashu in the south, and have Yuanqing echoed in the north, forming a tripod to the Sui Dynasty, and then accumulate strength to appease the people and observe quietly.
The Sui Dynasty changes, and one battle can win the world."
Yang Xuangan pondered for a long time and said, "What if I attacked first?"
Li Mi's face changed, "No! If Ming Gong takes the lead, he must have made a wedding dress for others for nothing."
Li Mi said to Yang Xuangan again: "We will raise an army to raise an army and we will find that everyone is afraid to go to Liaodong. Ming Gong should make a determination to the emperor and send his brothers to Liaodong for the war. One is to be confused by the emperor, and the other is to ask for it.
Generals can kill two birds with one stone.”
Yang Xuangan nodded slowly and was about to say something again, when Yang Xuanzong's voice sounded at the door, "Are you here, brother?"
Li Mi felt that he had said a little too much today, so she stood up and said goodbye. Yang Xuangan did not try to keep him and sent him out. Outside the cabin door, the second brother Yang Xuanzong took his nephew Yang Wei, and his son Yang Jun was followed behind. Yang Xuangan was stunned.
Why is Wei coming?
"Ming Gong, I'm going to say goodbye!" Li Migong bowed and left.
Yang Xuan nodded to Li Mi and said to his elder brother: "I called Jun'er back. I have something to look for him."
“Come in and speak!”
Yang Xuangan brought his brothers and nephews into the cabin. He had already received an urgent report from his family. Yang Wei led more than 100 grandsons to cause trouble and forced the family to be equal. In the end, the wife had to give in.
If it were in the past, Yang Xuangan would have been furious and blamed Yang Wei heavily, but now his mind has changed. Yang Wei is the leader of the grandson and Yuan Qing's confidant general, so he will be of great use to him.
Brother Xuangan sat down. Yang Wei was a junior, but he didn't dare to sit down. Yang Jun also stood aside. Yang Xuangan did not mention the family matter at all. He smiled and said to Yang Wei: "How could Wei'er come here?"
Yang Wei was a little nervous. After all, Yang Xuangan was the head of the family and his uncle whom he had been afraid of since childhood. He did not dare to lie in front of Yang Xuangan. Yang Wei lowered his head and said for a while: "I have something to do."
Yang Xuangan laughed, "I thought you were here to report me good news too!"
Yang Xuangan already knew that Yuan Qing had a son, so he immediately ordered the family to give him a great gift in his name. He knew in his heart that if Yuan Qing was there, he would definitely not accept it, but his daughter-in-law Pei would not be like Yuan Qing.
She will accept it.
He looked at his nephew who was as tall as half a black tower and smiled, "Are you here to do something for Yuanqing?"
Yang Wei nodded slowly and admitted Yang Xuangan's guess. Yang Xuangan was secretly proud. He continued to test and said softly: "Can you tell me? What is Yuan Qing going to do?"
This time, Yang Wei shook his head firmly. Yuan Qing told him about his secret and even said that he would be beaten to death. Not to mention the head of the family, he would not say that he was the head of the family, nor would he say that his father would.
Yang Xuangan's face sank, a little unhappy. Yang Jun beside him angrily shouted: "Yang Wei, you are facing the head of the Yang family now. What is the fifth rule of the clan? You should be very clear. Are you even the head of the family?
Do you want to hide it?"
Yang Wei's face turned red and he knelt down in front of Yang Xuangan, "Yang Wei is willing to accept the punishment of the head of the family, but I can't say that I promised Yuan Qing and would not disclose anything. Please forgive me!"
Yang Jun was furious and wanted to scold him again, but Yang Xuangan waved his hand and stopped his son. He smiled and nodded and said, "You are trustworthy and loyal, very good! I will not make things difficult for you, let alone punish you. You first
Let’s go and come here after you finish the business. Uncle invites you to have a drink. Let’s have a good chat about the relationship between uncle and nephew.”
Yang Wei was moved and choked and said, "Wei'er thanks uncle for understanding!"
He stood up and went out. Yang Xuangan gave his brother Xuanzong a glance. Yang Xuanzong understood and followed Yang Wei from afar to check his whereabouts.
Only Xuangan and his son were left in the room. Yang Xuangan's face sank and scolded his son: "Remember in the future, whether Yuanqing or Wei'er, they are all talents from my Yang family. They must win over talents and
Be kind, not airs and scold!"
Yang Jun did not dare to say anything, Yang Xuangan sighed again, "The biggest stupid thing I have done in my life is that I can't stop the Yang family from driving Yuanqing out of the house. Now I feel heartbroken. Jun'er, you will be the head of the Yang family in the future.
, You can't repeat the same mistakes."
"The child remembers the words of his father."
Yang Xuangan nodded. At this time, Yang Xuanzong hurried back, and Yang Xuangan immediately asked, "Who is he going to look for?"
Yang Xuanzong said with a strange look: "Just just now, I saw Wei'er asking a guard. When he walked away, I would ask the guard again. It turned out that Wei'er was actually here to find King Guan."
Yang Xuangan was stunned. What did Yuan Qing come to find Yang Xiong? He was puzzled. At this time, Yang Jun said coldly: "It should be for Master Yang."
