The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 793
When the two armies converged, Yang Tong already knew that Du Ruhui and the others had gone south in the snow because of Wei Fengwu's dream, and they had caught the person who dug the embankment, but Niu Jinda had missed it; and Wei Fengwu and the others had also known The reason why the army retreated in time was that Yang Tong vomited Zheng Liwan all over.The hatchbacks are facing each other, and everyone has the feeling that someone is not as good as God, and that fate is in the Sui Dynasty.

Shui Tianji, a superstitious woman, felt that Tubo Zanpu was not as smart as her, because she discovered that Yang Tong was the son of destiny when Yang Tong started his family, and thus integrated the Qi people into the Sui Dynasty. Living a good life is no different from the people of the Sui Dynasty. Isn't this the life that the people of the Qi people have dreamed of for generations?
"What's the matter with these people?" Yang Tong, who didn't know what Shui Tianji was thinking, looked at several Han Chinese who were tied up. I don't know the original appearance. Everyone's mouth is still stuffed with stinky footcloths. It seems that some soldiers thought they were noisy, so they took off the stinky socks from their feet and stuffed them. You can smell it from a distance. Rancid smell.

Yang Tong hurriedly dodged to the upper hand, thinking that it's no wonder everyone hid far away, and he didn't know whose feet smelled so bad.

"My lord, these are the envoys of the puppet Tang Dynasty, the envoy is Yun Baoxing, and the deputy envoy is Feng Lun. Not long after they arrived here, they encountered Tubo Xiaolun Wei Yice who led troops to help them. They understood the terrain here. , so he presented the method of breaking the lake embankment and flooding the camp, and even the direction of the army's withdrawal was determined by Yun Dingxing, so he deployed heavy troops on the shore in advance. If the Holy Spirit is not so blessed, I'm afraid... "I'm afraid what ?Du Ruhui didn't say anything, but there are some things that don't need to be said.

"It's really a gathering of treacherous ministers!" Yang Tong was overjoyed, and asked someone to remove the stinky socks from the gray-haired Yun Dingxing and Feng Lun.

As soon as the stinky thing left their mouths, the two immediately vomited.

After looking carefully, he finally recognized Yun Dingxing who had a bruised nose and a swollen face.

Let’s talk about Tai Sui.

Although the country has been established for less than 50 years, it is full of talents, especially in terms of famous generals. Some dynasties that have been passed down for hundreds of years are not as many as the Sui Dynasty.

Take this Yun Dingxing as an example. His ancestral home is Wuchuan, and his surname is Xianbei Helian. He gradually developed into a famous family in the Northern Wei Dynasty and gradually accepted Han etiquette.But for the Yun family, all the family glory has been ruined by Yun Dingxing.

This guy Yun Dingxing is very good at drilling, and he married his daughter who is also good at drilling to the crown prince Yang Yong, who was named Zhaoxun.

Yun Zhaoxun has a high status in Yang Yong's mind. First of all, he is good-looking and likable, and Yang Yong loves it at the first sight. Compared with his wife, the third party often understands men better, and knows how to use his own advantages to curry favor Men, don't men just like this?Secondly, Yun Zhaoxun knows how to be a man, and often recommends other girls to Yang Yong to enjoy, so in Yang Yong's eyes, she is naturally a good person, and then through these women, she repeatedly persuades Yang Yong in isolation for the sake of Yang Yong's career The concubine's concubine, her stomach was also very upbeat, and she gave birth to three sons for Yang Yong in one go.The crown princess Yuanshi was depressed and depressed, and soon passed away.

After Yuan's death, Yun Zhaoxun's position was promoted, and Yun Dingxing was officially promoted to be the most potential father-in-law of the Sui Dynasty.However, instead of admonishing the prince, Yun Dingxing added fuel to the flames, and as always tempted Yang Yong to neglect government affairs and indulge himself in string songs.

Under the leadership of the father-in-law, Yang Yong ignored government affairs and lived a life of string songs, which also annoyed Yang Jian and his wife. Seeing that the prince is not doing his job properly and there is no cure, how dare he entrust the huge empire to Yang Yong?

As a result, Yang Yong was abolished, and Yun Dingxing, who bewitched Yang Yong, was convicted. He, his wife and daughter were both slaves of the Shaofu Supervisor, but Yun Dingxing wanted to make a comeback. The former prince was gone, so he could find a new backer.

On this point, he used practical actions to explain what is shameless and what is a villain, how should I say it?He dedicated all kinds of treasures he got from his daughter to Yu Wenshu, and Yu Wen handed them over to Yang Guang.When Yu Wenshu blamed the fact that Yang Yong's son was still alive for his failure to get promoted, Yun Dingxing sold Yang Yong's son without blinking.Yang Yong's lineage has since been cut off.

Yun Dingxing took advantage of his grandson's life to advance step by step.When Yang Guang went south to Jiangdu, he became an assistant official of Yang Tong who was staying in Luoyang. According to Yang Guang's secret decree, I am afraid that none of the items will be brought to Yecheng.

When the Jiangdu palace rebellion broke out, he and Wang Shichong supported Yang Tan as the superior. Soon, Yun Dingxing forced Yang Tanchan to take Wang Shichong's position.Yang Tan refused to do it, and Yun Dingxing thought of finding a way to make way for Yang Tan and Gao Zhuchan to help Wang Shichong ascend the throne.When Li Shimin besieged Luoyang City, how could he, Yun Dingxing, be buried with Wang Shichong?So he sold Wang Shichong as a matter of course, and transformed himself into Li Shimin's team.

Compared with Yun Dingxing, Feng Lun who is Yang Su's son-in-law is not much better.

During the Daye period, Yu Shiji, the minister of internal history, was in charge of government affairs, but because of his integrity at the beginning, he often disobeyed Yang Guang.At this time, Feng Lun attached to Yu Shiji and advised him, asking him to flatter the emperor, seize memorials that violated the holy will, and restrain the virtuous.From then on, Yu Shiji freed his thoughts and received more and more favors day by day, while the state affairs of the Sui Dynasty gradually deteriorated.

What do you mean by raccoon dogs of a feather and gangsters?
These two old men in front of Yang Tong are.

At this time, Yun Dingxing, who had breathed out slowly, knelt down and pleaded guilty, crying, "The guilty minister Yun Dingxing kowtowed to the Holy One. It was not the sinful minister's wish to plot against the Holy One. It was actually forced by the situation. Please forgive me. forgive……"

Yang Tong ignored Yun Dingxing's cries and asked, "Langri Zanpu is just outside Jishi Pass, why do you look far away, and Li Yuan sent you to investigate, why?"

Yun Dingxing took a look at Yang Tong, and said cautiously: "By the sage, I am ordered by Li Yuan to lobby Geer, Wei, Niang, Nong, Sai, Cai Bang, etc., and hope that they will work together to persuade Tubo Zanpu and send more troops to assist. Li Tang resisted the Imperial Heavenly Army. If the Imperial Heavenly Army is defeated in the future, then the four old counties of Tuyuhun and the land of Hexi will be owned by Tubo.” Yang Tong was not surprised by this. Whenever the Li Tang Dynasty in history could not hold on to the civil war, it would Invite foreign troops to enter and fight with various promises.And Li Yuan was the one who started this case. Even though he had an agreement to share the country equally with Tubo, Yang Tong thought it was normal, and asked, "The result? Did the major tribes of Tubo agree to you?"

"No one has agreed yet."

"It's really useless." Yang Tong snorted angrily, "It's a shame that you are still famous treacherous ministers, you can't even do such a small thing well, what a waste!"

"Uh..." Yun Dingxing couldn't turn the corner, and looked at Yang Tong in surprise: "Reporting to Your Majesty, after more than a month of hard work, I have achieved very little. Judging from their reactions, they should be watching the Great Sui Dynasty." In the battle with Tubo, once the war changes, I am afraid that we will have to send troops."

Talking to treacherous ministers is such a hassle-free, you don't need to coerce and lure, he will tell you everything he knows, and even analyze it from your point of view for you.

Yang Tong asked again: "According to what you said, there should be no soldiers, but here comes the question again, where did the Tubo soldiers who ambushed me come from?"

Yun Dingxing continued: "The 1500 elite soldiers are the troops of the Wei family, the Niang family, the Nong family, and the Cai Bang family. These four families were originally the subjects of the Subi Kingdom. When Langri Zanpu conquered the Subi Kingdom, Niang Zenggu and Nong Zhunbao set up posts on the side of Daba Xiaru Mountain to serve as Tubo's eyes and ears. Wei Yice and Cai Bang Nasen acted as guides for Zanpu's march. Tubo then broke through Yu Nabaozhai destroyed the Subi Kingdom. By virtue of their great achievements in destroying Subi, these four clans each obtained [-] slave households, and gradually became a large family in Tubo. However, they were not in harmony with the original nobles of Tubo, and because they betrayed King Subi, they were accepted by Subi. Rejected by the various tribes, it is not good for both sides, so we can only submit to Langri Zanpu completely."

"This is the fate of a traitor, exactly the same as you two treacherous ministers." Yang Qinfang smiled teasingly.

Yun Dingxing showed a hint of embarrassment just right on his face: "The general is joking, the world is difficult, and we have to go with the flow."

"The world is difficult. It is reasonable and natural for you to go with the flow in order to survive. I have no objection." Yang Tong waved his hand to stop Yang Qinfang who was about to continue mocking, and said to Yun Dingxing: "Yunjian, you continue..."

"The Four Clans of Subi heard that Langri Zanpu Jishiguan was unfavorable. They were afraid that after Langri Zanpu's defeat, they would be rejected by the nobles of Subi and Tubo, and it would be difficult for them to survive. Ten thousand soldiers went to help in the battle. It's just that the Holy Majesty's barracks blocked their way of marching, so..." Yun Dingxing said.

"So you offer a plan, take advantage of the terrain to catch everyone by surprise, and plan to catch me and the Great Sui army, right?" Yang Tong changed his tone, murderous.

Feng Lun sat down on the ground with a thud, Yun Dingxing's face was pale, his lips trembled a few times, he looked at Yang Tong and said, "The Holy One is the king of a country, so I don't want to use this trick to deceive me."

"You said it yourself, what does it matter to me??"

"But the Holy One said that it is reasonable to follow the trend..."

"But you teamed up with Tubo to murder me..." Yang Tong looked at the mud and rocks on the other side, and said to Niu Jinda: "Old Niu, these traitors almost buried us alive, let them enjoy it."

"The Holy One is wise." Niu Jinda was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, kill me, kill me, and then bury... woo woo..." Yun Dingxing, who was shouting loudly, was gagged by the stinky socks again.

The corner of Niu Jinda's mouth twitched violently. It was the first time in his life that he encountered such a cheap request. There are really people in this world who take the initiative to seek death, and instead of being angry, they begged? ?

"Go." Yang Tong didn't bother to pay any attention to them.

"Here." Niu Jinda waved his hand, let the soldiers escort the gang of treacherous officials, and said loudly: "Forgive them is the business of the brothers, our mission is to send them to see the brothers. Hurry up, don't make the brothers wait too long .”

"Lao Niu's words are quite good, not bad!" Yang Tong praised, and then joked to Du Ruhui, whose armor was stained with black blood: "The generals of our Great Sui Dynasty are getting more and more educated, and the civil servants are getting more and more able to fight. , this is a good sign."

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate our literati." Du Ruhui said rather smugly: "The orthodox literati are proficient in the six arts, and some honest literati, whenever they encounter hooligans, usually beat him down first, and then go to convince others with reasoning." You look at Menxia Province, Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province chief officials, and ministers of Shangshu Province, which one is not so upright?"

"You're talking about yourself, right?" Yang Tong smiled and looked at Liu Rengui, who had been a scout captain, and asked, "Zheng Ze, you are also proficient in the Six Arts, do you often do this?"

Liu Rengui quickly replied: "When the final general was in his hometown, he often persuaded people with reasoning... twice the result with half the effort..."

Yang Tong was very pleased.

If he didn't have this kind of temper, he would have doubted whether Liu Rengui was the one who could defeat Baekje and the Japanese allied forces at his sixtieth age.

"You have heard what the traitor said." Calmly looking at the treacherous ministers who were buried alive in the torrent of mud and rocks, Yang Tong said, "The Tubo, like the Turks and other nomads, is composed of several tribes. In order to balance the power of the old nobles, Langri Zanpu reused the Subi faction who made great contributions in the unification war, which aroused the hatred of the old nobles. If Langri Zanpu died, Tubo There must be chaos."

"If Tubo falls apart, it will be harmless to us in the Sui Dynasty. Isn't that a good thing?" Du Ruhui said with a smile.

"It is indeed a good thing."

After Liu Rengui finished speaking, he saw that Yang Yu was silent. He was slightly taken aback, and quickly asked, "Does His Majesty think it's wrong?"

"It's not wrong, it's just that I think more than you." Yang Tong said: "If Langri Zanpu dies, those countries and tribes conquered by him by force should rebel, causing the Tubo lords to separate themselves, and after another round of bloody battles , there will be a tripartite confrontation of the royal family, the old nobles, and the Subi family; if there is no external force involved, I don’t think the old nobles and the royal family together are the Subi family.”

"Please tell me clearly." Liu Rengui didn't understand very well.

"It may be understood from two aspects. Firstly, the old aristocrats are rotten, clinging to the old rules, and the spirit of striving to make progress and strive for the top has long been obliterated by the affluent life of the masters. This is just like the Sui and Tang dynasties; secondly, the old forces generally have conflicts, and they are in a chaotic situation where no one can trust anyone and everyone is afraid that others will take advantage of them. Their hearts are not in harmony, how can they fight against the emerging aristocrats?"

Liu Rengui nodded silently, and he asked again: "The Supi Clan also stands side by side, as the saying goes, there are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country. I guess no one wants to be a courtier?"

"It depends on who is smarter. Smart people will learn from Cao Cao to coerce the emperor to order the princes, seize the righteousness first, and then implement the strategy of dividing and alienating the ministries."

"The general understands, but the premise of all this is to get Datzen Gampo."

"So, we're going to kill him."

After saying this, Yang Tong regretted a little.

When he was in Luoyang, Datzen Gampo had already been killed by Princess Xiangxiong legally. If the real Datzen Gampo was killed, Tubo would have to pinch his nose to recognize him.But at the beginning, Songtsan Gampo hadn't been poisoned yet, so he was allowed to escape. If he had known that the people at the Black Ice Terrace were so powerful, he should have dealt with Datsan Gampo.

However, there is no chance now.

Only because Dazan Gampo was in Ludongzan's army.
