First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 160

...

The killing of this court lady was just an insignificant episode in the Jiangdu palace. Since his tour of Jiangdu, Yang Guang has killed more than a dozen princes and ministers, and countless palace maids and servants have been killed casually.

Seeing that the court lady was killed, a trace of despair flashed in the depths of Xiao Meiniang's eyes.

She understands Yang Guang's intentions, Yang Guang is not stupid, how can he not know the current situation, but Yang Guang doesn't want to think about it, and doesn't want to make changes, he is ready to become the "Great Wall Lord", so is Xiao Meiniang. Don't worry about it anymore, since the emperor has given up, let's cherish the days in Jiangnan.

With Sima Dekan and the other three as the leader, they contacted everywhere, spreading the news to ten, and then to hundreds, which led to the fact that in Jiangdu City today, some people even talked about fleeing in public without any scruples.

As long as the eyes are not blind and the ears are not deaf, walking in Jiangdu City, you will definitely notice something, unless it is Yang Guang who lives deep in the Forbidden Palace and will be a young prisoner Yu Wenzhiji is one of them.

Yuwen Zhiji was the son of Xu Guogong Yuwenshu. Yuwenshu was Yang Guang's favorite minister and was deeply trusted. It can be said to be extremely honorable.

But Yu Wenzhi and this person were stubborn since he was a child, and he liked to compete with others. He was a full-fledged dude. Yang Guang thought of Yu Wenshu's face and let him take the position of general as the young prison.

The young supervisor is from the fourth grade, in charge of civil construction. Yang Guang likes to build palaces everywhere. This position is a good job.

On this day, Yu Wenzhi and the rare general went to the prison to be on duty, and then sent someone to send two invitations, and made an appointment to have a few drinks in a certain outhouse after being on duty.

Staying in the evening, Yu Wenzhi was chased by two people before he left Jiangdu Palace.

"I've met my uncle", the servant Yang Shilan is Yu Wenzhiji's nephew, and he is busy seeing him.

"Brother Yuwen", Huya Lang general Zhao Xingshu is a wealthy man in Guanzhong, with a fortune of hundreds of millions. Back then, he was able to start his career as a general by bribing Yu Wenshu, and he has always been on good terms with Yuwen Zhiji.

Seeing these two people chasing after them, Yu Wenzhi and Nian Xu laughed and said, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, today we need to have a good drink."

Zhao Yang and Zhao Yang looked at each other, and they all responded, they were very puzzled, they just got together a few days ago, why did they not see each other for a long time.

When they came to Yuwen Zhiji's outer house, the dining table had already prepared delicious food and wine. Yu Wenzhiji looked at the duo who were full of doubts, raised his glass, and sighed leisurely: "There is no one in life who is a confidant. Fine wine also feels dull and tasteless."

Zhao and Yang looked at each other, "Why did uncle say that?"

Yu Wenzhi glanced at him, and put down his wine glass heavily, "One of you is my nephew, and the other is my friend for many years. Now you are doing such a big thing, but you are hiding it from me. Do you treat me as your own?"

Zhao and Yang were startled when they heard the words, and then looked at each other with wry smiles.

"Uncle misunderstood, how dare I hide it", Yang Shilan said hurriedly, "To be honest, I was persuaded by brother Zhao just last night, and I haven't had time to report to uncle."

Zhao Xingshu also waved his hand and said: "I also just found out last night, and I was thinking of looking for an opportunity to tell Brother Yuwen about this matter, and I have no intention of hiding it."

Yu Wenzhi frowned, nodded, raised his glass and said: "I made a mistake, I punish myself with a glass."

Even if Zhao Xingshu told Sima Dekan's plan in full, he would join forces with the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army and plan to flee collectively on the night of the full moon on March [-]th.

Hearing this, Yu Wenzhi frowned.

Zhao and Yang looked at each other in blank dismay.

"What's wrong with my uncle?" Yang Shilan knew, although his uncle only knew how to walk dogs and fight cocks, he had a lot of thoughts.

Yu Wenzhi twirled his beards, and looked at the two of them carefully with a pair of small eyes.

After a long time, he said in a low voice: "Although the sage is tyrannical and innocent, the majesty of the emperor has been preserved for many years. When you colluded with the soldiers and fled, the sage issued a decree. It is expected that the soldiers of the hero will hesitate to move forward. What's more, Maybe you will be tied up in front of the driver in order to survive."

After finishing speaking, Yu Wenzhi and Yin Cece smiled, "Don't forget Dou Xian's end".

Zhao Yang was in a cold sweat when he heard it, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case. Although Dou Xian only fled with a thousand people under his command, after being chased by Yang Guang's troops, many soldiers defected immediately after the imperial edict.

Even Hu Yalang's General Zhao Xingshu was in the pursuit, having seen the power of Yang Guang's imperial decree with his own eyes.

Yang Guang has been the emperor for 14 years, and his prestige is still there. This is one of the reasons why the princes of the world, such as Li Yuan, Dou Jiande, Xiao Xian, etc., dare not claim the title of emperor. What's more, the Xiaoguo army is a guard selected by Yang Guang himself. In the Xiaoguo army, Yang Guang's prestige is even higher.

Previously, Sima Dekan thought that as long as there were many people, he could escape, but he ignored Yang Guang's prestige. As long as Yang Guang was alive, those who fled with Sima Dekan would be the biggest variable.

After thinking through this link, Zhao and Yang were terrified.

"This...how should this be done?" Zhao Xingshu, a kid from a rich family who relied on bribing his superiors, panicked when he heard this, "Brother Yuwen teach me."

Seeing this, Yu Wenzhi drove away the waiter, closed the doors and windows, and said in a low voice: "Nowadays, the world is turning against each other, the Sui Dynasty is about to fall, and today's sages have no intention of reorganizing the rivers and mountains. In this case, why don't you kick the Hunjun and take this opportunity to do something big?" cause".

"What... what big cause?" Zhao Xingshu asked tremblingly.

On the contrary, Yang Shilan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked excitedly, "What uncle said is the work of an emperor?"

Yu Wenzhiji stared at him immediately, and raised his fingers, "Shut up, if you don't keep secrets, you will lose yourself, don't be reckless."

"Emperor... the career of an emperor?" Zhao Xingshu was dumbfounded, and he was pitiful. He just wanted to go back to Guanzhong. Even if he went to Li Yuan, he would still be rich and honored. It would be better than being at risk by Yang Guang's side, but he really didn't expect to attack Yang Guang.

"Brother Yuwen, do you think we can do it?" Zhao Xingshu calmed down and asked suspiciously.

Yu Wenzhiji looked at him, shook his head, and said directly: "To do a big business, you need a master to take the lead. You, me, and even Sima Dekan have no reputation and no strength, so it is difficult to accomplish anything."

Hearing this, Yang Shilan immediately said: "What about my uncle? My uncle has a lot of friends. He was famous in Daxing City in the past, but now he is the Duke of Xu. He has a high position and authority, so he should be the leader."

Yu Wenzhi looked at Yang Shilan appreciatively, nodded and said: "Dashan, my elder brother is highly respected and famous all over the world, so he should be the master of enlightenment."

Zhao Xingshu had a strange face when he heard it, and his eyes were full of disbelief. Although he has no talent, Yu Wenhua and that guy, no matter what, can't be regarded as highly respected and famous all over the world. As for the great reputation in Daxing City, it should be He has a fierce reputation.
