"How can it be a rumor?" Master Dugu blushed, glanced at his vigilance and pretended to be mysterious for a moment. "It’s true. I have a relative who works in the palace."
"What do you know about the fire in Taicang a few days ago?" Duguwu division continued.
Zhang Tieniu thought for a moment. "Could it be that eunuch and maid-in-waiting in the palace accidentally lit a fire?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no," Dugu Martial Master shook his head again and again. "According to reliable information, Sui people sneaked into the palace and tried to burn Taicang grain."
"That night, I was assassinated. Although it was not serious at that time, I was frightened. The mother who hung up in the downtown area a few days ago was an assassin!" Dugu Takeshi said that he couldn’t help sighing.
Zhang Tieniu wiped his eyes and almost shed tears, but he quickly controlled his emotions. "So that’s it, but you said he died without being hurt?" The sound grew louder.
"shh!" Du Guwu woke up Zhang Tieniu with low vigilance and took a look around. "It is said that the pursuit was frightened at that time, but then I knew that the Sui Dynasty had won the destruction of the Tang Dynasty in several counties and suddenly went to sleep." This second half was fabricated by Du Guwu.
"This … since you have died, it’s too secret?" Zhang Tieniu gave chase with a silly look and asked
Du Guwu Shi Yu Guang glanced around and found that someone had noticed this. Du Guwu Shi’s voice was even lower. "Are you stupid? Now, the soldiers who are against the Sui Dynasty may attack Chang ‘an at any time. If we declare that Tianyu has died and succeeded to the throne, how can Chang ‘an be stable? "
Zhang Tieniu patted his head and said, "Oh, look at my brain." He shook his head again and again.
Master Du Guwu suddenly looked up and saw several men who were good at divination surrounded by people. He asked with great interest, "Is this true, brother?"
"What is it? I said nothing! " Duguwu master’s face changed in a hurry. He took out a few copper coins from his pocket, put them on the table and started to walk. Zhang Tieniu followed closely.
Several diners in the wine shop got together when they saw Dugu Martial Arts Master and Zhang Tieniu go away, saying that the topic of Dugu Martial Arts just now has become more exaggerated in their mouths.
Just as Dugu Martial Arts Master and Zhang Tieniu were talking, Fang De and his Royal Guards were talking about the same thing. Almost at the same time, the whole Chang ‘an city was filled with news of Tang Dynasty’s sudden death.
After the people in Chang ‘an added fuel and vinegar, things became even more confusing. What’s more, it was said that the Taicang fire was a natural thing to punish Datang and Li Yuan. Who called him a rebel thief? Isn’t the strong rise of the Great Sui Dynasty and the siege of Chang ‘an proof?
After the people cheered and embellished the rumors, the speed of terror was abnormal, and the people even spread them into the mouths of refugees. Some refugees were very angry, and their families were still big. Later, Li Yuan rebels entered Chang’ an, and some reluctant land and relatives chose to stay.
Although the Great Sui Dynasty was unpopular at the end of the Sui Dynasty, after Yang You’s efforts, he saved some hope that Yang You’s good governance won the support of the people. Before leaving, he even distributed Yongfengcang grain to the people to make the people who lacked food grateful
Compared with Li Tang, although there are some measures after entering China, in general, it is more sad or demanding to give people.
A few years ago, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were captured in Xiangyang War, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, also fell into the hands of Sui Jun. The people who saved their relatives at home paid a lot of money, and some of them were poor, and the Qin family sold land and sold houses, which was enough to redeem their relatives.
Later, Datang Longxi suffered from the loss of the Central Plains, Hebei suffered from the loss of Bingzhou, and tens of thousands of military forces were either killed or captured. However, Datang Treasury deficiency often failed to give pensions to soldiers who died, which made the people extremely sad. If it was not for forced conscription, some soldiers did not want to be soldiers at all.
In recent years, if the Tang Dynasty has won successive battles, it can still get resources from the defeated countries to appease the people and boost morale. However, it has failed several times in a row, and its morale has dropped to the lowest point.
At this time, the anger of the people who have been forbearing for a long time broke out, and they discussed in twos and threes what to do now that Datang has died. Do you want to continue to work hard in Datang or choose to rely on Da Sui? Everyone is from the Sui Dynasty!
There are still many troops in Chang’ an, but the people are afraid to have too many ideas.
At dusk, Dugu Huai ‘en was lying on the brocade shop in the carriage. He had just come out of the palace. Dugu Huai ‘en entered the palace to have a look at Tang gaozu’s illness. After all, he was a relative, but he was blocked by several eunuchs. Several East Palace guards were carrying a horizontal knife and a tiger’s eye with a murder statement. No one was allowed to enter without too much advice.
Dugu Huai Nai was disgruntled all the way home, and he thought about a question, that is, what happened to his health? From all kinds of signs, it seems that you are not well. Dugu Huai-en sighed slightly in his heart. Now it seems wrong to make a choice at first, and it is very wrong
Who knows that the boy who is not weak in crown has led the lost warship Da Sui to find his way back and become stronger for several years, while the Tang Dynasty, which seems to be getting stronger and stronger, has become as weak as the old man, just like Tang Yuan is now tied with his hands.
"alas!" Dugu Huai ‘en really regretted it in his heart, but there was no medicine to regret it. If life had been here, he would have chosen Yang You to contribute to the strength of Dugu at the most critical moment of the Sui Dynasty. From the perspective of the situation behind, the gains must be huge. After all, Dugu Yan has become the queen of the Sui Dynasty, and Dugu Wu Shi is Yang You’s reliance on a mysterious force. Although he is only a bodyguard, he can protect the glory of the Sui Dynasty. This trust is not shared by others.
"Mistake! Mistake!" DuGuHuaiEn thinking at this moment, he found that the carriage speed slowed down, opened the curtain, DuGuHuaiEn looked outside and found that there were many refugees in the street, and they got together in twos and threes to say something mysterious.
"Go and see what happened?" DuGuHuaiEn commanded a bodyguard flattery walked forward.
Chapter 115 blustery
Dugu Huai-en has a preoccupation, but seeing the waves of refugees seem very noisy. Dugu Huai-en narrowed his eyes. Will this group of refugees have any unusual behavior? Although there were many refugees in Chang ‘an in the Sui Dynasty, Yongfengcang firmly grasped that there was no shortage of food in the hands of the government in the Sui Dynasty.
Now, the largest granary in China has fallen into the hands of Sui Jun, and the number of refugees in Chang ‘an is short of food. Dugu Huai ‘en vaguely feels that an abnormal storm is coming. How long can this Datang Changan support?
Soon the guards brought the latest news, and the guards got all kinds of news from the refugees without asking. When the guards told Du Gu Huai-en what they had seen and heard, Du Gu Huai-en’s heart became heavier.
At this time, the refugees have not reached the end of their rope and have no intention of robbing. At this time, they think more about all kinds of rumors, and there are more than a dozen guards around Dugu Huaien, so they have successfully returned to Dugu House.
At this time, the population of Dugufu is not as prosperous as in previous years. Speaking of Duguhuaien, he thinks that he is good to Tang Yuan. After Tang Dynasty, Duguhuaien thinks that he is diligent, but the treatment is far from enough. Tang Emperor Li Yuanxin is Pei Ji, Tang Jian and others are more demanding for Duguhuaien.
Walking in the sedan chair, Dugu Huai-en glanced at the gate. Dugu was equal to the glory in those days. He almost leaned in and looked at some mottled doors. Dugu Huai-en shook his head and stepped into the gate. The fact that Dugu was far from being so down and out was that he didn’t want to be blackmailed by Tang gaozu.
Just walked into the gate of the housekeeper waiting to see DuGuHuaiEn busy before "Sir …"
Dugu Huai ‘en was stunned. He didn’t expect that the man actually came at this time and asked, "Where is he?"
"Room" housekeeper replied.
"I ordered people not to go near the house," DuGuHuaiEn said, rushing all the way to the house. He wondered what the purpose was for him to come here. Don’t …?
With complicated thoughts, DuGuHuaiEn stepped into the room and turned around. He locked the door tightly and looked at the man standing with both hands.
Hearing this, the man turned his head and couldn’t help showing a beaming arch. "My nephew’s master has seen his uncle."
"How did you get into Chang ‘an?" Dugu Huai ‘en’s voice trembled a little. After all, it is difficult for a family to stir up after years of not seeing it.
"My nephew has been in Chang ‘an for a long time." Du Guwu Shi smiled and looked at his uncle’s gray temples, and his emotions were equally complicated.
"Oh?" DuGuHuaiEn replied slightly thoughtfully and suddenly nodded, "So that’s it. You put the fire in Taicang."
"Yes, I let it go," Dugu Martial Master admitted neatly, and then looked at his uncle and added, "Now that the big Sui soldiers are bullying Chang ‘an, the pseudo-Tang has run out of gas. Does uncle want to choose the pseudo-Tang to be buried?"
DuGuWuShi cut to the chase, though simple, was like a sharp knife to peel off DuGuHuaiEn’s heart. DuGuHuaiEn was never a loyal minister. When Daxing was threatened by Tang gaozu, he secretly took refuge in Tang gaozu. Now that the Tang Dynasty is in a weak state, it may be destroyed by the Great Sui Dynasty at any time. How can Dugu Huai ‘en be willing to be buried with him?
DuGuHuai grace don’t talk, he is already white DuGuWu division a lobbyist must be instructed by Yang You DuGuHuai grace pacing slowly still don’t talk.
Seeing this scene, Dugu Martial Arts Master smiled in his heart. He knew that his uncle’s intention was not to strive for the interests as much as possible. However, Yuan, Wei and Dugu rebelled together but were defeated by Yang You. Afterwards, Dugu Yan Dugu Martial Arts Master Dugu was lucky, but Yuan and Wei were hacked with a door.
Yang You’s kindness to the Dugu family is beyond words. Of course, the Dugu Martial Arts Master also knows that this is to make Dugu play a better role in the Sui Dynasty, but in any case, it is always kindness. The marriage of Yang Dugu’s generations has been closely linked.
"Uncle, do you know that my coming here is just a private action?" DuGuWuShi spoke again while DuGuHuaiEn consternation and continued, "do you know what’s the purpose of encircling Chang ‘an without attacking?"
DuGuHuaiEn one leng this problem he can’t figure out the facts, he always can’t see through Yang You’s thoughts about Yang You naturally.
"I can reveal a little, and most of these are my guesses," said Master Du Guwu, coughing gently. "It’s not that we can’t take Chang ‘an step by step when hundreds of thousands of troops are besieging Chang ‘an, but that we want the Li Tang royal family to besiege Chang ‘an, kill it or capture it, and there can’t be a net."
"Li Tang colluded with foreign Turks and Tuyuhun in collusion with the humiliation of the Central Plains. In those days, he once said that he would sweep away the decadent style and strengthen the Central Plains, so that the four barbarians could spread the Han culture to the world."
Du Guhuai’s heart became more and more shocked. He was shocked not only by Yang You’s ambition, but by Yang You’s self-confidence in the process of recovering Chang ‘an. He could have taken Chang ‘an for a long time, but he hasn’t started yet. What’s the purpose? DuGuHuaiEn some doubts.
"Chang ‘an or Daxing, after all, is the capital of the Great Sui Dynasty, which was built by the first emperor with painstaking efforts. The delay in starting work is to protect Chang ‘an from the wave of war." The words of Du Guhuai ‘en are already very obvious.
Dugu Huai ‘en is not a fool. I immediately understood from Dugu Wu Shi’s words that this is for Dugu’s family to be exact. Dugu Huai ‘en played for Da Sui. At this time, Dugu Huai ‘en had some thoughts. I don’t know what conditions Da Sui could give.
"Uncle, don’t hesitate any longer. Qu Tutong, the general manager of Longxi Road, and Yao Junsu, the general manager of Hanzhong Road, have already pressed Chang ‘an against the Ministry of War of the Sui Dynasty. Shang Lijing and Hou Junzheng are leading troops to besiege several counties in Hedong. They will besiege the city as soon as winter is over at the latest, and then they will cover their nests and eggs?" DuGuWu master continued.
"I’m willing to take refuge in Da Sui, but I don’t know the position …" DuGuHuaiEn still loathe to give up wealth.
DuGuWu master smiled a "uncle also speak what conditions at this time? Dugu’s family has a large population, but there is no shortage of an uncle. "
You!’ Don’t DuGuHuaiEn heart angrily warrior this words to keep him away from DuGuJia center? In other words, it is equal to letting him hand in hand with each other.
Dugu Martial Arts Master did not say much, and he bowed his hand and said, "Uncle will consider the day and my nephew will come again." He left with a kiss.
Dugu Huai ‘en paced in the room thinking about the future until late at night, but he still didn’t feel hungry and fell asleep unconsciously. As soon as the next day, Dugu Huai ‘en woke up in a hurry, washed up and bit two pieces of Hu cakes, and ordered the guards to prepare the carriage for a trip to the north of the city.
Chengbei weifu
Wei Chengze has been cut off from his official position since the retreat of Yongfengcang, but he doesn’t care that the farther away he is from the center of Datang Li, the smaller the responsibility will be. Datang is no longer the Wei family, but he will continue to live.
Early in the morning, Wei Chengze pushed the patriarch Wei Ji to enjoy the winter sunshine by car. Wei Ji was naturally an old fox for many years. Wei Ji didn’t move south with Yang You in the name of old age, but he sent his talented brother to Bashu, such as Wei Yunqi. In addition, several grandchildren also changed their names and moved south with Yang You.
Wei Ji did this because he didn’t want to put his eggs in one basket. Otherwise, once the investment failed, the whole clan would be destroyed. Now the reality proves that his decision was correct. The young monarch of the Great Sui Dynasty led by the south and then the north gradually unified Hebei and the Central Plains, and then he would recover Chang ‘an, the old capital of the Sui Dynasty.
Although Wei Meng is old, he is not confused about the whole situation. It is he who comforts Wei Chengze that losing is not a bad thing, but sometimes it is a new beginning. Being frustrated for a while doesn’t mean that you can’t work hard and have a bright future after knowing it.
Wei Chengze said something while pushing the car. "Since yesterday, the heads of the family have rumored that Hedong has been occupied and the king of Qin died …" Wei Chengze unhurriedly told Wei Ji about the flow of Fang.
Wei Ji’s ears are a little bad. From time to time, Wei Chengze will ask a few words and patiently answer Wei Chengze’s question. He will take a warm sunshine in the center of the car yard. Wei Ji narrowed his eyes and kept thinking.
It is said that there are tens of thousands of refugees and a large number of poor farmers in Chang ‘an city. Now the government can still take out some food to help the people. What should the refugees and poor people do if the food is insufficient or they are too reluctant to release food?
They are likely to impact the grain merchants and the government. At that time, the situation in Chang ‘an was more difficult to control. The Sui Dynasty could easily recover Chang ‘an. Wei Ji sighed slightly when he thought of this. He suddenly thought of Wei Chengze’s news that Fang Liutian had died.
Thinking of the fire in Taicang, which blocked the palace, Wei Ji felt that even if Tang Yuan didn’t die, I’m afraid it wouldn’t last for a few days. It was also a big sui dynasty. How could Tang Yuan not be excited when he knew the news? It is enough to prove this that the state affairs are entrusted to Tai.
Li’s personality in Longxi couldn’t hold on to that big Sui day. I’m afraid the royal family in Li Tang will be killed. The scene that Wei Xuan and Yuan Mai rebelled in those days were all killed by blood made Wei Ji remember today.
Li is going to be destroyed, and Wei’s helm needs Wei’s consideration. Wei Ji will never be buried with Li. If he chooses to take refuge in Da Sui Jia Wei Juan at this time, Wei Ji feels that Wei Jia will not be affected by the wave.
But if you take refuge in Da Sui? This requires careful planning. After all, there are tens of thousands of military forces in Li Tang’s Chang ‘an City. Even if Sui Jun wants to seize Chang ‘an badly, it will take some time. During this period, if the news is accidentally leaked, Webster’s family will be destroyed.
