Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 481
The big change of You Xiaowei spread to Luoyang, and Xin Shixiong was furious, my good guy, is this going to abolish me?Are they all my people?

In the first place, he didn't go to the emperor to sue, because in all likelihood, it won't work if you sue your son in front of his father.

So he approached his immediate boss, Li Hun.

"After such a change, no one of the generals below listens to me. How can I fight this battle? You always have to solve this problem for me," Xin Shixiong paced back and forth in the general's room angrily, nagging non-stop.

Li Hun raised his eyebrows and glanced at the other party, then continued to remain silent.

His position is to hope that Li Jing can fight this battle well, why?The same family, they are all Longxi Li.

His father, Li Mu, was the first Patriarch of Longxi Li after the founding of the Sui Dynasty, followed by Li An, and now Li Yuan.

But their family, because of fighting each other in the same room and killing each other, was almost taken over by Yang Jian, and then began to decline.

At that time, Li Hun's army was in a dangerous situation, and he instigated his nephew Li Shanheng to kill his nephew Li Yun, and then blamed Li Qutan.

When Li Yun just died, the case had not been solved yet, but it was basically determined that the Li family did it. Yang Jian, on Su Wei's suggestion, arrested their entire family and interrogated them one by one.

Dugu Jialuo uttered harsh words, but couldn't get through the trial, and all of them were demoted to civilians, so Yu Wenshu helped and put the blame on Li Qutan's head, and the others were released, but they were not reused.

The thing of fighting in the same room is very despised by others. In the eyes of the emperor, this trend must be curbed by high-pressure means to warn other families.

Today's Longxi Li, Li Yuan is gaining momentum, and Li Jing is clinging to the crown prince again. He may be the future minister of the dragon. If Goguryeo fights well this time, there is hope to take over the position of Patriarch after Li Yuan.

So Li Hun hopes that Li Jing will win, and he also knows what kind of virtue Xin Shixiong is. Isn't the prince doing this because he is worried about you causing trouble?
"Are you too old to say something? You Xiaowei belongs to you, so why are you just watching the prince mess around like this?" Xin Shixiong asked anxiously.

Li Hun stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Shixiong said carefully, the right Xiaowei has never been mine, the tiger amulet is with your majesty, the twelve guards and four mansions belong to your majesty, and the crown prince is his son, and now he has the power to supervise the country , how do people arrange it, what can I say?"

Xin Shixiong was dumbfounded, it wasn't your person who exchanged his feelings, don't worry,
"I was appointed by His Majesty as the chief of the vanguard, and I have an important responsibility. Now that the generals under my command have been replaced, how can I fight? The subordinates refuse to accept me and fight against me. Under such circumstances, how can I lead the army?"

Li Hun said: "Aren't you under the control of Li Jing? Just listen to him."

I want to marry your mother, there is no such thing as Li, Xin Shixiong gritted his teeth, snorted coldly, and slammed the door away.

As a general, the most taboo thing is that his subordinates do not obey the deployment, Li Jing is like this, and so is Xin Shixiong.

Right now, his people in Youxiaowei have all been dismissed and replaced. It is obvious that the crown prince is targeting him. He couldn't bear it, so after leaving the military government office, he went directly to ask the emperor to see him.

In Huiyou Hall, Yang Guang was chatting with several ministers. It was a very casual chat, and the atmosphere between the monarch and his ministers was very harmonious.

As for the things discussed, it involves a wide range of things, including the change of You Xiaowei.

Yu Wenshu had expressed a bit of truth just now, but the emperor deliberately avoided this topic, so he stopped talking.

Now hearing the notification from the servant, Xin Shixiong asked to see him, Yu Wenshu was very happy, you came just in time, and I happened to be here, so I can help you.

As soon as he entered the hall, Xin Shixiong knelt down with a plop, and cried to Yang Guang, who was pacing by the bookshelf, with tears in his eyes:

"Your Majesty wants to make decisions for the ministers."

Yang Yue, who was sitting in the hall, said directly: "It's so hot, I was startled, this is His Majesty's resting place, what form are you in?"

It's none of your business, you son of a bitch, Xin Shixiong continued to cry:
"My old subordinates have all been replaced by the crown prince. In the current situation, the subject is no longer able to lead the army. For such a major military matter, the crown prince will act capriciously. I dare not complain. I only ask your majesty to let me decide."

"I don't dare to complain, but I complain every word," Yang Xuangan said with a sneer, "You, you don't mean what you say."

The people sitting in the Huiyou Hall are all big bosses, Xin Shixiong is a military general, there is no card here, why?Are you His Majesty's confidant?Who can sit here, who is not His Majesty's confidant?
Yang Yue also has the ability to support the dragon.

Yang Guang withdrew his gaze from the bookshelf, glanced at Xin Shixiong who was kneeling on the ground, twitched his mouth, shook his head, and then continued to wander along the bookshelf, as if he was looking for some books.

After a while, as Yang Guang raised his sleeve and pointed, the servant Gao Ye immediately moved a ladder. Seeing this, Xin Shixiong got up to pick up the ladder, then climbed up the bookshelf by himself, and took down the book.

He is an old man from the Prince Jin's mansion. He has done this kind of thing a lot before. Master servant, master servant, he is Yang Guang's servant.

This book is "The Analects of Confucius".

Xin Shixiong lowered his head and held the book in both hands, but Yang Guang didn't accept it, but said:
"Turn to chapter twelve."

Xin Shixiong also read the book, and immediately knew that the twelve chapters were the questions and answers of the sage Confucius about how to practice benevolence, how to conduct politics and conduct himself in the world.

After turning to Yan Yuan, Xin Shixiong looked up at Yang Guang.

"Find paragraph No.11," Yang Guang said lightly, "Read."

Xin Shixiong read honestly: "Duke Jing of Qi asked Confucius about politics, and Confucius said to him: the emperor, the ministers, the father, the son, and the son. , Although there is millet, can I get it and eat it?"

When Yang Yue heard this, the corner of his mouth turned up, and he looked at Yu Wenshu, who was speechless.

Those sitting here are only educated, but they are absolutely not illiterate. As the first of the Four Books, "The Analects of Confucius", they are all memorized backwards, and they immediately understand what the emperor means.

Of course, Xin Shixiong also knew, and the cold sweat broke out on his back.

The passage that the emperor asked him to read meant: the king is the king, the minister is the minister, the father is the father, and the son is the son. Carry out their duties and fulfill their own duties, and they must not overstep or mess up their positions.

He went to the emperor to sue the prince, which was arrogance and lost his duty as a courtier.

Yang Guang also told him that what the prince does is his duty, why is it targeting you, you want to go.

Do you want the emperor to believe that the prince did something wrong?Which tendon is constricted to dare to do this?

The prince is wrong, that is a father-son matter, and has nothing to do with you?

Xin Shixiong didn't dare to speak anymore.

Yang Guang returned to his seat with his hands behind his back and sat down, then waved to Xin Shixiong, motioning for him to sit too.

Xin Shixiong sat down in the last seat tremblingly.

Yang Guang looked around the crowd, finally set his eyes on Pei Ju, and said with a smile:
"It is difficult to be a king, and it is also difficult to be a minister. If there is a dilemma between the two, it will be even more difficult. The world always does things with the king's worries as a worry, and relieves the king's worries, so you enjoy it. You Yeah, live a long life."

Pei Ju said with a smile: "Sharing His Majesty's worries, I will never get tired of it."

Yang Yue hurriedly said: "The same is true for my minister."

Well, the remaining group of people followed the minister, and Yang Guang was very happy, saying:
"A carpenter has a high-level apprentice who has learned his master's skills to the best of his ability. It is because his teacher is old and can't do work. So the high-level apprentice takes the rest of his apprentices to work around to make a living. However, when encountering difficulties, some apprentices said: You should ask a teacher to help you. Solving difficult problems, Gao Tu said: When a teacher encounters difficulties, he never seeks outside, and should study hard to overcome them, so there is no need to worry about the teacher."

After all, Yang Guang looked at Xin Shixiong: "You are not as good as a carpenter's apprentice."

Xin Shixiong said with shame on his face: "I am ashamed."

Yang Guang told him that I put you in this position to let you work hard for me. If there is a problem, you can solve it yourself. If you let me solve everything for you, what is the use of you?

Yang Yue hurriedly said: "The crown prince is the master carpenter's apprentice, and he only knows how to work hard to relieve the worries of your father."

Yu Wenshu sighed, and looked at Xin Shixiong: "Don't stay in Luoyang, go back to the capital early, ask the prince about everything, and take care of You Xiaowei. If there is something wrong, I will ask you."

He is the marching marshal of the Nine Routes Pioneer, and Xin Shixiong is under his control, and he hopes that Xin Shixiong will go back soon and fight with the people the prince arranged to enter the right Xiaowei.

It is impossible not to fight, otherwise Xin Shixiong is a poor commander, and no one can command you on the battlefield. His Majesty has already said, let you solve the problem yourself, don't you understand how to do it?

Your mistake today is that you shouldn't let your majesty come down to solve the problem for you, but how you solve it, the emperor doesn't care.

Xin Shixiong is also a sensible person, knowing that if he doesn't go back, he, General You Xiaowei, will only have one title left.

Yang Guang waved to him, and Xin Shixiong resigned and left.

"The crown prince really thinks highly of Li Jing." After Xin Shixiong left, Yu Wenshu looked at the emperor and said with a smile, "This has invited Shi Wansui and Han Sengshou out of the mountain. Xin Shixiong is also hard."

"It's difficult, and it's self-inflicted," Yang Yue said with a sneer:

"He quarreled with Li Jing in the Ministry of War. Duan Wenzhen has already reported the truth to His Majesty. There is no second general in the army. Since His Majesty has handed over the West Road to Li Jing's control, isn't he going against his Majesty's will by going against Li Jing?"

Yuwen stated: "The two have never worked together, and they have never met each other. Xin Shixiong is also a senior. Li Jing relies on his support and disrespects his seniors. This is why the conflict arises."

"Who will support Li Jing?" Yang Guang asked.

As soon as these words came out, Yang Yue and others felt bad. The crown prince used his own people to defeat the emperor's people.

Yu Wenshu said with a smile: "Everyone knows, if it wasn't for the crown prince's request, how could His Majesty entrust Li Jing with such an important task?"

"Then who is supporting the prince?" Pei Ju laughed.

Yang Yue was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Of course it is His Majesty, the father is the courage of the son, and the person who supports Li Jing is actually His Majesty."

Yang Guang leaned back, smiled and said:

"That's it."

Yu Wenshu seemed to swallow a mouthful of shit.
