The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 470 The Good News Brought by Yuan Ziyan
Yuan Ziyan has actually met many "emperors", such as Yang Guang, Li Yuan, Li Mi, Xiao Xian, Du Fuwei...

Yang Guang is the real lord of the world, exuding a strong majesty from his whole body, his eyes seem to have the glory of divine light, full of terrible deterrence, and there is a domineering arrogance on his face, only from the momentum Look, Yang Guang is undoubtedly the most imperial character.

Li Yuan has sharp eyes, broad forehead, and a dignified appearance.There is an elder style in dealing with people.

Although Li Mi's appearance is not very good, but his majestic appearance gives people a feeling that the mountain collapsed in front of him and his color does not change.

Xiao Xian is a descendant of the Xiao family, with a literary talent and a noble air.

Du Fuwei is a reckless hero, full of offensive breath.

These people have their own unique temperament.

Before he knew Yang Tong, Yuan Ziyan also thought about what kind of person Yang Tong was. He could dominate the north in a short period of time, not only completely annihilating the Khitan Xi clan that had occupied the Northeast for hundreds of years, devouring the Qi clan, but also Beat the arrogant and mighty Turks to pieces, and exterminate the grassland hero Sibi Khan outside the Tiger Pass... What kind of hero will Yang Tong be who can accomplish these miracles?
In the past, Yuan Ziyan thought that Yang Tong should be Yang Guang, with Yang Guang's temperament and shadow, because Yang Tong is not only Yang Guang's grandson, but also one of Yang Guang's key characters.

But after meeting later, she found that Yang Tong's temperament was much more mediocre. When she met for the first time, the image of a handsome and handsome young man jumped out in front of her eyes. feeling of feeling.

When it comes to girls choosing a mate, Yang Tong is indeed the first choice of women, but in terms of imperial temperament, Yang Guang, Li Yuan, Li Mi, Xiao Xian, and Du Fuwei seem to be more in line.

But the ensuing confrontation overturned Yuan Ziyan's previous opinion.

She still remembered that it was a snowy day when Yang Tong was participating in the martial arts examination outside Yecheng. On his way home, she used the scent of herbs to distract Yang Tong's mount and brought them to her. In the hermitage where she lives sojourns, it was originally in her imagination, and she will start with the words of "coincidence", "encounter" and "destiny with Taoism" in the next step, and "sell" her own Taoist essence, so that Yang Tong can accept Taoism. , and cited it as the state religion, but everything was not only seen through by Yang Tong, but after returning to the court, followed by a vigorous order of restricting Buddhism and Taoism, and using the two theories of Buddhism and Taoism The impression of Buddhism and Taoism among the people forcefully put a pair of shackles on these two sects, thus limiting the unlimited expansion of Buddhism and Taoism. Under this policy, the development of Buddhism and Taoism under the rule of the Sui Dynasty can be said to be It is the most difficult thing, not to mention temples and Taoist temples are all over the world, and even disciples cannot be recruited.

Because everyone thinks that Buddha and Taoist ancestors are high gods, but I am just an ordinary person, how could I get to that point?Instead of daydreaming, it is better to live every day in a down-to-earth manner.

In this way, Yuan Ziyan believed that Yang Tong had both the characteristics of Yang Guang and Li Yuan. He seemed benevolent, but in fact he was shrewd and full of intrigues.

Now we meet again, but it's different.

From the previous conversations and the standards of this era, just based on Yang Tong's sentence - "...too many new territories have brought about many problems, and it makes me cry when I say it, hey... I should have told the soldiers if I knew it earlier." Playing a little more reservedly, in short, you don't understand my troubles! ' is enough to position Yang Tong as a 'faint king'

But in fact.

The Hunjun is naturally inaccurate. In the past few days, Luoyang has been much more stable than before. Thinking about the great achievements that the emperor has made all the way to the present, it is naturally impossible to be a real Hunjun .

In the end, Yuan Ziyan felt that although Yang Tong was the least imperial-like emperor, not to mention Yang Guang's majestic and heroic demeanor, he was more peaceful and easy to approach, but in this peace, there was an inexplicable self-confidence Inside, he is not as sharp-edged as others, but there is always a convincing atmosphere in the plain, as if the whole world is under his control. It is a very different temperament from other 'emperors'. It seems unremarkable, but it's just that he no longer needs to show that side to others, and the rascal and arrogance he occasionally shows may be more in line with his age.

After all, he is just an insignificant Taoist fairy, not a hero of all walks of life with thousands of troops. Yang Tong does not need to communicate as an emperor all the time, and he has no right to arouse his hostility.

In this world, he is the king, and he is the master of all life.

It is aloofness, but also self-confidence that comes from one's own strength.

-

"Couldn't Fairy Yuan come to Luoyang to chat with me because I'm bored?"

After adding the tea soup, Yang Yu put down the copper pot and looked at Yuan Ziyan with a smile. Although she did not have the temperament of Wei Fengwu, Shui Tianji, Changsun Wugou, Li Xiuning, and Pei Qinghua, her unique clean and elegant atmosphere really made people Pleasing to the eye, chatting with such a great beauty is also a kind of enjoyment.

"I was ordered by my father!" Yuan Ziyan showed a smile on his face, and said: "I don't know how much the Holy One knows about Bashu."

"'Hey, the danger is so high... The difficulty of the road to Shu is that it is difficult to go to the blue sky, which makes people listen to this withered beauty! Even the peaks go to the sky without a foot, and the withered pines hang upside down against the cliff. The turbulent waterfall competes for noise. , the cliffs turn into stones and thunder. The danger is the same. People who are far away from you come here for nothing...'"

"Your Majesty has a good literary talent. This poem fully expresses the majestic, breathtaking, majestic, and majestic momentum of the Shu Road...Although the difficulty of the Shu Road is exaggerated, it is not much worse.' Jiange is towering and towering, while Cui Wei, one man guards the gate, and ten thousand men cannot open it. The guards or bandit relatives turn into wolves and jackals' This sentence can better explain the worry and concern of the Holy One for Bashu's weather, location and interpersonal relationships. From this we can see that, Your Majesty has long wanted to regain Bashu." Yuan Ziyan's pretty face was a little more heroic.

"Bashu will naturally be recovered."

"Does Your Majesty have a deep understanding of Bashu?" Maybe Yang Tong didn't have the majesty of an emperor, and Yuan Ziyan seemed very casual.

"Although Bashu is located in the southwestern corner, its strategic location is unique. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is sufficient food. Therefore, whenever the unified dynasty collapses, the careerists here will move on hearing the wind and set up banners one after another. However, when the smoke clears and the world is at peace, this basin nestled around the mountains has not yet been truly included in the territory of the empire."

"Why is that?"

"This stage is the most difficult time for a new empire. Because the empire that is basically unified is waiting to be rebuilt, not only must we do our best to restore people's livelihood, develop the economy, and appease the people who are still hostile, but there are also remnants of various failed forces inside. The recalcitrants are stubbornly resisting; in many cases, the northern nomads are like the top of Mount Tai, such as the Xiongnu in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and the Turks in the founding of the Sui Dynasty. Therefore, the main enemies of the Central Plains Empire at this stage are foreigners, as well as domestic A mess, victims of disasters waiting to be fed. As for Bashu, because of the steep roads, it is difficult for you to fight it, but it can't be beaten, so from the overall situation, it is the secondary enemy of the empire, and it is generally determined by the overall situation. Time to pacify the place. But..."

Yang Tong continued with a smile on his face, "The careerists who ruled Bashu are not stupid. Seeing that the general situation has been settled, they profess to be ministers and recognize the new dynasty, but in fact, they are still the local emperors in essence. So' Before the world was in chaos, Shu was in chaos first, and the world was governed before Shu was ruled."

"My lord, the local tyrants who want to control Bashu not only have a lot of good land and beautiful houses, but also have their own army and a large number of slaves. Even the Li and Tang dynasties appease them, acquiescing to their self-reliance. The state of the state, and the political program adopted by the Sui Dynasty determines that once the Sui Dynasty enters the land of Bashu, the interests of these people will be damaged, so these people will really support Li Tang now."

Only at this time did Yuan Ziyan realize that Yang Tong's understanding of Bashu was not as simple as he imagined. It seemed that he knew it well and had some plans. If so, it seemed that he had made a trip in vain.

"That's right! It's impossible to expect them to submit to the Sui Dynasty! But they don't know that the masters of Bashu are ordinary people who were oppressed by them, slaves who were beaten to the bone by them." Yang Tong smiled. Whether it is the Long Group, the Shandong gentry, the southern gentry, or the Bashu tyrants, they are all the same in his mind, and even the methods to deal with them are the same.

"This is the slogan of 'Down with local tyrants and evil gentry, liberate serfs'." Yuan Ziyan smiled slightly, feeling deeply.

'Down with the local tyrants and evil gentry, liberate the serfs' is Yang Tong's foundation, a magic tool to go from success to success, and a good recipe for Luoyang to stabilize quickly.

On the sites of Li Yuan, Li Mi, and Xiao Xian, [-]% of the land is still firmly in the hands of the aristocratic family. The aristocratic family uses the means of renting land to gather the people scattered due to the war. It can be said that it is not the government but the government that really controls the people's livelihood. Aristocratic families, many times, government policies are not as effective as those of aristocratic families.

The common people don't understand the righteousness of the country and the nation, but they know who is in control of their own lifeblood. This is why many big families can respond to everyone. The fundamental reason lies in the word "interest".

The same is true of the previous Great Sui Dynasty.However, Yang Tong took back all the fields in their hands and distributed them to the common people, so that the common people no longer had to depend on the noble families for their livelihood, which was tantamount to eradicating the influence of the noble families on the common people from the root. control.

Indeed, Yang Tong is fighting against the world's aristocratic families, but once the land equalization system comes out, behind Yang Tong is all the people of the world!The world's family against Yang Tong is equal to against all the people in the world, how could the various heroes supported by the world's family beat Yang Tong?
Yang Tong's method has obvious effects and has won the hearts of all the people in the north. Now even if the princes of the Central Plains unite, it is impossible to shake Yang Tong's position.Of course, the premise is that Yang Tong must continue to win in the military.

Yang Tong's policy program is known only to people with a little bit of knowledge, but Li Yuan and the others just can't implement it and dare not implement it, because the main force that constitutes their dynasty is the aristocratic family, which needs the power of the aristocratic family to resist the fierce arrogance of the Sui Dynasty , so they can only let the aristocratic family continue to exploit their own people like drinking poison to quench their thirst. The only consolation and reason is: one day they can kill Yang Tong, kill the Great Sui, rule the world, and then bargain with the aristocratic family.To put it bluntly, the heroes of all walks of life are commonly known as those who have no way out and can only black out all the way to the end.

Li Yuan knew that after the announcement of his surrender to the Turks, his reputation would be rotten. He also knew that the current territory was severely reduced, the public opinion was overwhelming, the imperial court was corrupt, and the army's combat power was shrinking. persist in?Just because competing in the world itself is a road with no return, when they set foot on this road, they know that there is no turning back when they open their bows, and they can only succeed and not fail.

If you stick to it, you might succeed.

Isn't it the best example to outline the extermination of Wu and the great Han's extermination of Chu?
In fact, Yang Tong has no turning back, it's just that the situation has developed to the present, and he has a greater advantage.

"My lord, in fact, besides the ordinary people and the vast number of family slaves in Bashu, there are still a group of people in the mountains, as many as hundreds of thousands." After a long time of emotion, Yuan Ziyan finally expressed his original intention.

"Fairy Yuan is talking about Liao people, right?"

Yang Tong's expression turned serious. He thought that there is actually another race living in the land of Bashu. They are brave and good at fighting, they are poor, and they have lived in the mountains for generations. They are the masters of the vast mountains, that is the Liao people.

The Liao people are a widely distributed ethnic minority in Southwest China, and they are also the root and ancestor of many ethnic groups in later generations.

"That's right!" Yuan Ziyan was not surprised to hear Yang Tong say it out loud. If she still thinks that Yang Tong doesn't know Bashu, then she is not Yuan Ziyan.

Without waiting for Yang Tong to ask, he took the initiative to say: "During the Daye period, the world was in turmoil. My father returned home from Luoyang. These years in Bashu, he not only told people's fortunes, chanted scriptures and prayed for blessings, but also took his disciples to practice medicine. He has lived in Zhongzhong for two years and has a very good relationship with King Liao. He admired the culture of the Han family since he was a child, and he took the name Qin Wang for himself. My father saw the policy of the Holy Majesty to deal with the Qiang, Mohe, and other tribes in the frontier. It is very gentle, and it can also allow the people of the two ethnic groups to live in peace, so I asked the Holy One to see if I could use this relationship to build a bridge between the Holy One and the King Liao. Maybe it would be helpful for the Holy One to recover Bashu. Shu will be rejected by the Han people, and the two sides will have many conflicts in the future, which will affect the stability of Bashu, and we don't understand these things, so it depends on what the Holy Majesty wants."

Finally, Yuan Ziyan expressed his concerns.

"In my heart, the Liao people are also the people of the Sui Dynasty, no different from the people of my clan. In fact, there are good people and bad people in every nation, and my clan is no exception. In my heart, Li Yuan, Li Mi, and Dou Jiande are not the same. Bad guys? Or vice versa. So we can’t just define a people as black and white, good or bad. There’s one exception, of course: They’re total assholes.”

Yang Tong did not expect that Yuan Ziyan would bring him such an unexpected joy. In his impression, although the southern minorities have tough folk customs and are reprimanded as "Southern Barbarians", they have never had cholera since ancient times. In the long history of ethnic relations, they have always been in a weak position. Even if the scale of resistance is not large, and it seems that there is a reason for it, even the Qiang people, Mohe people, Xi people, Turkic people, and Goguryeo people can be included in the Sui system. Enlightenment, not to mention the Liao people who have no major evil deeds in history.Once we have the powerful help of Liaoren and the leading party, I believe it will be much easier to recover Bashu.

Although Yuan Ziyan was very curious, he didn't ask which nationality it was, but said: "If that's the case, then I can reply to my father."

"Row!"

"It would be great if His Majesty sent an envoy to accompany my father."

"Even if Fairy Yuan doesn't say anything, I'll let people from the Ministry of Rites go with Daoist Yuan. After all, it's not easy to go back and forth." Yang Tong said understandingly.

"'Hey, the danger is so high!... The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky...'." Yuan Ziyan recited the whole poem verbatim.

"Haha!" Yang Tong laughed loudly: "You have a good memory. If you take the imperial examination, you will definitely get good grades."

"I can also take the imperial examination?" Yuan Ziyan's eyes lit up. All aspiring women follow heroines like Shui Tianji, Yin Mingyue, and Cai Wei as their role models. Not much worse than men.

Especially Yin Mingyue is a model among the models. She took Gaochang Kingdom effortlessly. , Pei Xingyan, Niu Jinda and other world-famous generals did not have the honor.And on the day of Yang Tong's ascension to the throne, not only canonize her as 'Duke of Mingyue County', but also give her a Tianyi sword designed by herself to show her achievements. What kind of honor is that?

Yuan Ziyan asked herself that her skills were no worse than others. If she had the opportunity to display her talents, she felt that she could also achieve a career.

"You don't have to participate in the scientific examination. Isn't Bashu an opportunity to express yourself?"

In fact, no matter what era, strong women are very hard-working, even in later generations where men and women are equal. The status of "mother" alone dooms them to not be able to concentrate on starting a business like men, so women must pay more than men if they want to succeed.

Just like Yin Mingyue, who is admired by women all over the world, others only look at her glamorous side, but they don't know that she has put in a lot of hard work for today, and even ignore the great sacrifice she gave up being a wife and a mother.You must know that in this era, the saddest thing for a woman is that no child calls her 'mother'.

It's just that Yang Tong didn't hit Yuan Ziyan, but encouraged him vaguely. Such a beautiful woman wandering around in troubled times alone is a remarkable skill in itself.

"Okay, I hope the Holy Majesty will not Don't forget this." Yuan Ziyan was full of confidence.

"I'm waiting for you to come to show your merits, and when the day comes, I will seal it for you."
