First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 167 The Last Loyal Man of the Sui Dynasty
...

The next day, the sun was high, and Shen Guang woke up from a hangover. He suddenly realized, rubbed his brows and muttered to himself, "Chen Qian should be fine."

Then Shen Guang was still worried, and hurried to discuss with Mai Mengcai.

After hearing Shen Guang's words, Mai Mengcai was startled, and shouted: "Confused, you are confused, after the late emperor was killed, the old thief Yuwen and others liquidated Jiangnan's civil and military affairs. This is how you can escape, how can you disclose the plan to Chen Qian and his colleagues."

Shen Guang was terrified when he heard the words, "This...how can this be done?"

Mai Mengcai immediately picked up the saber, "Go and see if Chen Qian is still there."

Everyone immediately went straight to Chen Qian's residence, but was told that Chen Gongjian hadn't come on duty this morning.

Tonight, Yu Wenhuaji was going to live in Xianfu Palace, but Chen Qian, the Palace Supervisor, did not come to check in. How can this be said.

Mai Mengcai's heart was half cold, and he went straight to Chen Qian's residence. Without a doubt, he was in vain again. Chen Qian's family members were all in Jiangdu, and only Chen Qian lived here. Mai Mengcai's figure flickered. Staggered and almost fell to the ground, "It's all over."

Shen Guang's face was ashen and regretful.

At this time, Qian Jie, the deputy general of the envoy battalion, came in a hurry, "A large number of soldiers and horses came from outside the palace, and they have surrounded Xianfu Palace."

The two looked at each other, and Shen Guang immediately pulled out his waist knife and wanted to kill himself, "If the matter cannot be vented, it is all my fault."

Mai Mengcai stopped him and snorted coldly: "If you want to die, you have to kill a few more traitors before you die."

Shen Guang agreed with the words, and immediately went straight to the palace gate.

Outside Xianfu Palace, Yu Wenhuaji was sitting on a tall horse with a look of rejoicing, "Mai Mengcai is the son of Mai Tiezhang, he is brave and good at fighting, and has a lot of prestige in the army. Shen Guangqian Jie's disciples are also unstoppable." Fortunately, Chen Gongjian informed the person, that the truth will definitely be rewarded."

Chen Qian who was beside him hurriedly lowered his head and smiled when he heard the words: "The prime minister's destiny is the best choice to help the country. Mai Shen and his like don't know current affairs, even if they don't have a humble job to inform them, the prime minister can turn danger into good fortune. Die auspicious."

Yu Wenhuaji was very happy to hear that, and he laughed loudly, "Chen Gongjian is such a great talent, it is really too much talent to guard the palace here, which shows that the faint king Yang Guang has no eyes, and the position of Minister of Internal History is very suitable for Chen Gongjian" .

Chen Qian was ecstatic when he heard the words, he got off his horse and prostrated himself on the ground, "I am grateful for the support and support of the Prime Minister, and I will never forget it in this life."

At this time, Yu Wenhua and an official behind him showed dissatisfaction. Yu Wenhuaji was the best at observing words and expressions, and immediately said with a warm smile: "Don't think too much, Yuan Shilang, you two, one left servant and the right servant, complement each other perfectly. Isn't it beautiful."

It turned out that the man was Yuan Min, Minister of Internal History. Hearing this, Yuan Min was stunned.

The Ministry of Internal History is indeed equipped with two servants to assist the internal history order, but Yang Guang is suspicious, and there is no internal history order, and only Yu Shiji, the internal history minister, manages the government.

Yuan Min is the son of Yuan Shou, the general of Zuo Yiwei. He is an official worshiper of Neishi Sheren.

However, Chen Qian was just a small palace supervisor, but he suddenly sat on an equal footing with him. Yuan Min was naturally dissatisfied, but he did not expect Yu Wenhua to creatively create a Zuo Shilang and a Right Shilang.

Afterwards, the ministers also felt deeply absurd when they heard the words.

At this moment, I saw a group of people rushing up the palace wall in front, they were Mai Mengcai, Shen Guang and others.

Seeing Chen Qian, Shen Guang cursed at him. Chen Qian felt ashamed, knowing that he would be notorious in Jiangnan in the future, so he had to hide behind Yu Wenhua and dare not show his face.

Yu Wenhua hated Shen Guang and the others for feigning surrender, and was even more annoyed with fear in his heart, so he immediately ordered an attack.

Xianfu Palace is a palace on the outskirts of Jiangdu. It is not a defensive palace for Yang Guang to rest here. It's climbing up the wall.

After a chaotic battle, the envoy battalion soon lost all casualties. Shen Guang gritted his teeth and stared at Yu Wenhuaji outside. Suddenly he saw the flagpole beside him. Shen Guang immediately pulled out the flagpole and hugged him , Shouting loudly: "Throw me over".

Lieutenant General Qian Jie immediately understood, took his own soldiers, several people joined forces to hug the other end of the flagpole, swung it out in a semicircle, Shen Guang let go, and flew straight towards Yu Wenhuaji.

Yu Wenhuaji panicked, shouted in a hurry: "Guardian", and hurriedly hit the horse and ran back.

It's a pity that the strength is insufficient, Shen Guang fell not far from the sky, and rolled a few times on the ground before he stabilized his figure. .

As soon as Yu Wenhuaji ran, Yuan Min, the minister of internal history, was directly in front of him. Yuan Min was dumbfounded, and before he could react, he was hit by a flying horizontal knife on the door and died on the spot.

Seeing this, Sima Decan, who commanded the siege, was furious, and ordered: "Let the arrows go!", Xiaoguo crossbowmen unanimously opened their bows and loosened their strings.

The poor loyal guard Rou Feixian was unarmed, and at such a close range, he would die if a thousand arrows pierced his heart.

On the palace wall, Mai Mengcai and others were filled with grief and indignation when they saw this scene. They all fought with their lives, but they were helplessly weak, and soon they were hacked and killed by more and more Xiaoguo rebels one by one.

So far, the last group of loyal ministers and righteous men of the Sui Dynasty all died in Xianfu Palace.

Then Yu Wenhuaji didn't care about it any more, and even acted recklessly. When he led his army to Xuzhou, the waterway was impassable, so he immediately decided to go by land. Chariots and horses came to pull gold, silver and treasures, and the soldiers of Xiaoguo were forced to go on the road with heavy supplies and armaments on their backs.

As generals, Sima Dekan, Zhao Xingshu, Chen Botu and others were also very dissatisfied when they saw this.

"The world is in chaos. I waited for the incident to assist the Ming Lord. Only in this way can we have a future. But Yu Wenhua and this person only know how to enjoy themselves, and they don't know anything about government affairs and military affairs. They are definitely not people who can do great things." Sima Dekan shook his head and said .

Originally, Sima Dekan, as the commander of the Xiaoguo Army, had a high position and authority, and was the leader of the army, but after Yu Wenhuaji took power, he was very suspicious of Sima Dekan, and promoted him to the Minister of Rites. In fact, he wanted to seize Sima Dekan's military power, and Sima Dekan was already aggrieved about it.

Zhao Xingshu also sighed and said: "At the beginning when Yu Wenzhiji proposed to support Yu Wenhua, I didn't quite agree with it. I have known Yu Wenhua since the early years, and he has nothing to do with Mingzhu."

"Since that's the case, why don't I abolish him, so as to prevent him from spoiling my brothers so much, it's thanks to him that he can figure out how to carry such heavy supplies and armory by living people," said Chen Botu, a fierce general in the army, angrily.

Sima Dekan's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and the three immediately made an agreement to attack and kill Yu Wenhuaji.

It's just that Yu Wenhua and this guy seem to be lucky for the villains. Just when Sima Dekan and others were preparing to attack, the doctor Zhang Kai overheard this when he was treating the injuries of Sima Dekan's subordinates, and hurriedly reported to Yu Wenhua and others. .

Yu Wenhuaji was very frightened and angry. The third brother Yu Wenshiji offered a plan to lure Sima Dekan to the Chinese army's tent when he didn't know that he had been exposed.

Yu Wenhuaji acted according to the plan and ordered Sima Dekan to come to discuss the matter. Sima Dekan did not know that he had been exposed, but he came as promised. As soon as Fang entered the account, he was arrested and hanged by Yu Wenhuaji. Zhao Xingshu and more than ten members of the party were liquidated.

Since then, Yu Wenhua has taken full control of the Xiaoguo army, with more than [-] soldiers, and only one person.

　I have become a Xiaoyang person these days, and I am a little confused. These chapters are a bit long-winded. I will make a good adjustment tomorrow and get to the topic as soon as possible.

　　In fact, I personally like pure people like Shen Guang and Mai Mengcai very much, so I rewrote it. Mai Mengcai, who was mentioned briefly in history, is actually really good. Maybe he is also a great general with illustrious military exploits, no less than his father Mai Tiezhang.
