Emperor Sui Yang

Yang Ming, who was in the capital, also received news that the Que Du Set up Department and Ashina Dana Department needed to be settled, and Yang Ming had to do it.

Huining County is Xiaxia County, and there is only one county under its jurisdiction, which is the capital Liangchuan County. This county is not small in size, but its population is very small.

The main reason is the harsh geographical environment. This place is the junction of the Loess Plateau and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The entire county is full of ravines. There is also a Zuli River running through the entire Huining County from north to south. However, the local soil contains more saline and alkali. So much so that the water in Zu Lichuan could not be drunk, and the drinking water in Huining County mainly depended on the pitifully small amount of groundwater and precipitation.

Originally, there was no proper road in this place, and Zu Lichuan was blocked, so when going west from the Central Plains, instead of going here, go to Longxi County in the south.

Huining and Longxi, one north and one south, have huge differences in geographical conditions and water source environment.

Because there is Wei River in Longxi County, and more than half of the territory belongs to the hilly area of ​​the Qinling Mountains, there is no shortage of food and water sources.

The 7000 people who set up the Ministry of Quedu were all old and weak, and it was not rare in the Sui Dynasty, so they settled in poor places that were not very important. The Ministry of Civil Affairs also drew up a plan to delineate thirteen townships along the Zuli River. , Break up the Que Du Department and place them here.

As for Ashina Danai, luck is much better, because his subordinates are all the main force of Chuluo, and he can go to Loufan County in Shanxi.

There are two major passes in the north of Loufan County, Loufan Pass and Yanmen Pass. Yang Guang's intention is obvious, that is to let you, a group of Turkic men, guard the border for Lao Tzu.

Yang Ming sent 5000 people to escort these people to Shanxi. Because of She Kui's compromise, Chu Luo's family members were expelled from the Western Turks, joined Chu Luo and the others, and were resettled in the territory by the Sui Dynasty.

And Chu Luo was named Hosana Khan by Yang Guang. This trick was used by Yang Jian on Qimin. If She Kui is not obedient in the future, Yang Guang will send troops to support Chu Luo and return to Western Turks to seize the Khan throne.

On the day Changsun Wuji returned to Beijing, a land deed was handed over to him, and then he went to the place where the land deed was located to look around.

"May I ask, which nobleman originally owned this place?" Changsun Wuji met Pei Hong in the silk and satin village.

Pei Hong laughed and said, "The crown prince's side concubine, the daughter of Mr. Pei."

The corner of Changsun Wuji's mouth twitched, and instantly felt a walnut stuck in his throat, and hurriedly led his servants to the palace.

He dare not want this thing.

In the East Palace, Yang Ming frowned and looked at the land deed in his hand, then glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji below, and said in a deep voice:

"Where did it come from?"

Changsun Wuji said: "King Qin sent someone to deliver it to me."

"Bring me both Yang Rui and Yang Jin," Yang Ming said to Chen Kui.

Yang Jin was studying outside the palace and couldn't come back for a while, so only Yang Rui fought alone.

"Where did the title deed come from?" Yang Ming's face was gloomy.

Yang Rui decided to take the blame by himself, and said, "I stole it."

And Yang Ming didn't intend to ask any more questions. If he asked again, he was afraid that his son would slip up, so he turned to Qian Niu Bei and said:
"Zhang Wu, hit now."

Laiyu's face turned green, why didn't you let Chen Kui do this, but let me do it?Is it because you don't like me?

If I listen to you and beat King Qin, when His Majesty comes back, I will be the one who gets beaten.

However, Laiyu stood up honestly, took the stick from the guard outside, and said to Yang Rui helplessly:

"Please, Your Highness."

Yang Rui curled his lips, lay down on the bench, and said to his father, "Is it okay if you don't take off your pants?"

Yang Ming nodded, signaling Laiyu to hurry up.

Laiyu took a deep breath and threw down the wooden stick vigorously, but at the last moment he withdrew his strength. With a bang, Yang Rui took a hit, which was neither painful nor itchy.

Yang Ming said coldly, "Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

Laiyu swallowed subconsciously, and then swung the stick down again, this time, with a little force.

Yang Rui didn't even cry out for pain, because it didn't hurt at all.

"Go, call Laiyu first, and then King Qin," Yang Ming looked at Qian Niu Bei Dugu Lingyun.

Laiyu was immediately elated, but he escaped, so he took the initiative to lie on the ground.

Dugu Lingyun walked over with a blank face, and slapped Laiyu hard five times, making Laiyu's slapped face into a monkey's ass, and he couldn't help but not cry out.

When it was Yang Rui's turn again, Dugu Lingyun was so perfunctory that he raised his hand and knocked five times before standing aside, lowering his head and not daring to make a sound.

These two are smart people, you are hurting Yang Rui now, when their parents grow up and have power, remember what happened when they were young, and they will not be able to stand up if you find them bad.

"Call the princess and the others and let them beat them," Yang Ming said.

Changsun Wuji hurriedly begged for mercy, but after being reprimanded by Yang Ming, he was too frightened to say anything.

On the way here, Yang Yinjiang said to Pei Shuying: "I can't do it, can you help me? When Jin'er comes back, I will be in charge of beating Jin'er."

"Yes." Pei Shuying's character is very cheerful, no matter Yang Rui or Yang Jin, her attack is the same.

She remembered the scene when her younger brother Pei Xuanji was beaten when he was a child. Grandpa was very ruthless, and she felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

So after entering the palace, without saying a word, Pei Shuying took the wooden stick and threw it at Yang Rui's ass.

The hoarse screams immediately resounded through the hall, and Yang Yinjiang couldn't bear to watch it.

Pei Shuying is a girl, and her strength is not much, but Yang Rui is a child, and she is not resistant to beating.

The next four sticks beat Yang Rui into a daze, feeling like stars were popping up in front of his eyes, and he kept begging for mercy.

And Changsun Wuji was crying beside him.

The few Qianniubei in the hall seemed to be frightened on the surface, but in fact they were happy in their hearts, let's fight, the little highness should have cleaned up long ago.

Yang Yinjiang wanted to take her son down for treatment, but Yang Ming stopped her and said:

"It's just a few sticks, it won't kill anyone."

Yang Yinjiang raised her sleeves and wiped her tears in distress.

After a while, Yang Jin was brought in. When he saw Yang Rui's miserable appearance, he took another look at Changsun Wuji, and immediately understood what was going on, so he ran out.

He ran, no one dared to chase him, only his mother dared.

Pei Shuying lifted her skirt and chased after her. After a while, she grabbed her son's ear and pulled Yang Jin back.

"Ah? What's wrong? I was wrong, I was wrong." Yang Jin cried directly, the kind of crying.

Yang Ming said in a deep voice, "Did you steal the title deed?"

"It's me, it's me, I was wrong, I was wrong, father, please forgive me," Yang Jin kept crying and begging for mercy.

Pei Shuying took the wooden stick and handed it to Yang Yinjiang: "It's your turn."

Yang Yinjiang was somewhat reluctant to let her go, and said to her husband: "Jin'er is young and doesn't know human affairs, so let's get rid of it."

Yang Ming frowned and said: "Nian Qi is young, besides, Yang Rui has already taken the blame for him just now, so let's hit him three sticks."

Yang Yinjiang raised her eyebrows and stood there without moving.

After waiting for a while, Pei Shuying felt that she was not quick enough, so she grabbed the wooden stick and hit her son's butt with three sticks.

After it was over, Yang Jin was knocked unconscious, and now Pei Shuying was stunned.

Yang Jin is only four years old.

With a wow, Changsun Wuji threw himself on Yang Jin and cried bitterly,

"Quickly pass on the imperial physician!" Yang Yinjiang was in a hurry, and hurriedly picked up Yang Jin and ran to the bedroom.

In the evening, Li Shimin came to find Yang Rui after class, because he felt that Yang Rui was taken away halfway, probably because of the exposure of his theft.

He never thought about why the person who took Yang Rui didn't take him away too?
In the bedroom, Li Shimin stared dumbfounded at the two naked buttocks lying side by side on the big bed, their palms were sweating.

It's too ruthless to be beaten like this?
Yang Rui and Yang Jin's buttocks had been changed several times, and it didn't hurt as much as before. They screamed for an hour just now, and they didn't have the strength to talk anymore. The two boys faced each other, staring at each other.

The medicine used by the Imperial Medical Office to treat stick injuries is very effective, because this is the injury they heal most.

In the Sui Dynasty, there were no more than two kinds of punishments for officials and servants, the light ones were beaten with sticks, and the severe ones were beaten with whips. The Imperial Medical Office has special medicines for these two kinds of injuries.

Li Shimin stood trembling, and he didn't dare to say a word, let alone look up at Yang Ming and the others. After all, he was the one who came up with the idea.

He doesn't know now whether Yang Rui and the others have sold him.

After a while, Yang Ming looked at him and said lightly:

"There's nothing wrong with you here, you can go back to your elder sister's place, and come back tomorrow to take care of Yang Rui."

Interesting enough, it seems that I didn't sell me, Li Shimin said "hmm" and tiptoed out.

Look, this is the one who does big things, and those who take the initiative to take the blame are fools.

Yang Ming suddenly felt that punishing his son on the charge of stealing was just to make the eldest grandson Wuji die, and it seemed a bit fanciful.

The punishment for theft in the Sui law was used to restrain others, not to restrain a grandson who might inherit the throne.

Those who steal the hook will be punished, those who steal the country will be punished, let's see what you steal.

If Yang Guang knew that his two grandsons were being beaten like this just because they stole a land deed, he would probably reprimand Yang Ming as well.

With identities like Yang Rui and Yang Jin, they are doomed to be two-faced people when they grow up, keeping their mouths open about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and not obeying any of them behind their backs.

Who made them their own sons?
Yang Ming suddenly felt that there was a long way to go to teach his son.

Yang Yinjiang and Pei Shuying felt distressed at the moment, Yang Ming called them out specially, and said:
"Don't be soft-hearted, it won't benefit the two of them in the future, don't ask about the land deed anymore, Ayun will give it to Zhangsun Wuji."

Pei Shuying nodded.

Changsun Wuji's status as a servant has been determined, and the official department will also prepare files. There is no grade for a servant, but Yang Ming got him a Yuqiwei, the last of the eight lieutenants. From the ninth rank, he belongs to Wu Sanguan, and Li Shimin's Qin Wang Kuzhi, the rank is higher, the sixth rank.

So Changsun Wuji belongs to the lowest grade, but people with higher grades have to give him a good face when they see him.

Just like the correspondent next to the leader, he is still a temporary worker, but who dares to show embarrassment to him?
As long as he takes good care of Yang Rui, he will have a bright future.
