Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 577 Who Should Be the Crown Prince

Shan Binbin came back from his brother's house as a guest, and when he saw Zheng Guanyin, he immediately came to Luo Cheng like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Just took in the last Guanyin maidservant, it's only been a few days, why is there another Zheng Guanyin?"

Shan Binbin was not angry at her husband for taking a concubine, but rather at not discussing it with her.After all, taking a concubine is a matter for a big woman, and it is up to her to arrange it.

"Zheng Guanyin is not a concubine." Luo Cheng laughed.

"Not a concubine? Do you want her to be your wife, what about me?" Shan Binbin was even more angry.

Luo Cheng comforted his wife, "Where are you going? This Zheng Guanyin not only insulted me, but also insulted Aye and Niang before. How could I let her be my wife? In fact, this matter is not that simple, Zheng thought. Fuck me, so I sent this woman here, of course I will not give up, so I accepted it, but I will not give her any title."

Simple explanation.

Shan Binbin immediately said to her husband, "Husband, I blamed you."

"It's okay, I should have discussed it with you first, but you're not at home."

When Shan Binbin heard that the Zheng family was so bad, he couldn't help being annoyed, "These damned guys, the Zheng family wanted to force me to marry their idiot back then, and now they still want to harm my husband, let's see how I deal with this Zheng family. female."

Luo Cheng said with a smile, "You can clean up as you like, it's okay to be a maid or a servant, just remember to feed her, drink enough and warm her up, don't starve her to death, exhaust her, or get lost."

"Don't worry, there are plenty of ways to deal with her, you hateful bitch!" Shan Binbin angrily ran to trouble Zheng Guanyin.

Putting down his pen, he put away the unfinished map of Liaodong mountains and rivers. After Luo Cheng changed his clothes, he took the adoptees to Beiyuan.

Recently, the emperor summoned Luo Cheng to Beiyuan to ride horses and shoot arrows almost every day, and sometimes let him play polo or hunt with him, and often asked him to help train the Xiaoguo army.

Although it is hard work, there is no way.

Although the New Year is over, the court envoys from all over the country still have to line up to leave Beijing.

And as outsiders at the first level of the Dao, they were ranked last.

The scale of official adjustments this time is too large, not only the addition of a first level of Taoism, but the emperor also made major adjustments to important officials such as the prefects, captains, and county officials in the seven counties of Tianxia 210.

Hundreds of counties are involved, and hundreds of chief officials have been transferred, and the official department is very busy now.

At the same time, the Wujiedu District and the Badudu District also need to adjust their troops, and they need to send more troops to these border areas. Unlike the past, this time the troops will be stationed in the border areas in the future. The three frontier military regions have added military offices.

There are more than 30 soldiers in the five Jiedu military regions, plus the eight governor's regions. Calculated, the [-] frontier military regions will have to set up [-] to [-] military mansions, and no less than [-] frontier troops will be stationed, and their families will also be relocated. In the past, they would also be allocated fields and granted land, and at the same time set up military settlements.

For this reason, the imperial court had to send an additional garrison envoy to the [-] frontier military regions to be responsible for garrison matters.

Correspondingly, no less than 30 frontier troops will be assigned officers.

In the past, the government soldiers were stationed in the Central Plains. In non-combat situations, the middle and senior officers were all in the Twelve Guards in Beijing, not in the army.

Now the frontier has to form a standing army to guard the border, and above the military mansion, it is natural to maintain a permanent army officer group to command and command.

Originally, the emperor planned to go to Guanzhong Daxing after the next year, stay in Xijing until early summer, then go to the Linfen Palace in Hedong to escape the summer heat, and then go to Mobei Grassland to meet the Turkic Khan in autumn.

But now, the plan has been disrupted.

Holding a crescent stick in his hand, the emperor galloped forward, leaning sideways and lowering his waist, and hit the small polo squarely with one stick. The polo drew a beautiful arc, passed through several opposing players who intercepted it, and landed just right. In front of Cheng.

Luo Cheng rushed forward, hit the ball hard, and the polo went into the hole.

On the side of the field, on the yellow side of the emperor and Luo Cheng, the drums were thunderous, the horns blared, the colorful flags fluttered, and countless soldiers of the forbidden army shouted in unison.

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"

Excitedly, the emperor rode his horse towards Luo Cheng holding a crescent stick, "The goal was scored just now!"

Luo Cheng said with a smile, "Your Majesty made a good pass. The interception just now was really ruthless, and that pass was even more wonderful!"

competition is over.

Naturally, the team of Emperor and Luo Cheng won the game with a three-goal advantage.

"I heard that His Majesty plans to go north to visit outside the Great Wall after autumn?"

In the warm bath, Luo Cheng and the emperor were both naked, soaking in the warm water.

The emperor has a good figure and is very strong. After a fierce polo match, his kung fu has recovered after a while. There is no excess fat on his body, and he even has a lot of muscles. This surprised Luo Cheng .

I thought that being an emperor was the most difficult thing to control yourself. After all, no one can control the emperor. His power is too great, so there are naturally many temptations.

But who would have thought that the emperor could still control himself so well and control his body so well. He had heard that there were not many concubines in Yang Guang's harem before, but he didn't quite believe it. Now it seems that it is indeed true.

I think Yang Jian had only five sons and five daughters with Empress Dugu in his life, and Yang Guang has only four sons and two daughters so far. Among them, the eldest son died of illness, and the youngest son also died, leaving only two sons.

And Yang Guang is almost 50 years old, and has only had four sons and two daughters in total. His cousin Li Yuan, who is about the same age as him, has already given birth to five sons and six daughters.

As the emperor, there are only so few children in total, which can also show that the emperor really doesn't like women too much.Therefore, it is unreliable to say that Yang Guang raped his mother and concubine, even his younger sister, and drafted a lot of drafts in later romances.

The Sui Dynasty did have a talent show, which was selected every few years, but the number of selected women was not large each year, and these beautiful women entered the palace, in fact, they acted as court ladies. Go, this is almost the practice of all dynasties.

The emperor was also looking at Luo Cheng's body.

Looking at the scars one after another, I was amazed.

"Luo Cheng, tell me about the origin of these scars?"

So Luo Cheng had no choice but to explain to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this wound was my first wound when I was robbed by a blue-faced ghost on the way home from digging a canal in Ji County, so I rose up to resist and captured and killed the thief. It was also my first wound. Fortunately, the injury was not serious At that time, thanks to Qin Qiong's return home from Donglai, he drew his sword to help and captured and killed the eighteen blue-faced ghosts..."

"This scar was stabbed by a butcher's knife when he captured and killed the cattle thief."

"This scar was left when we suppressed bandits in Changbai Mountain."

"It was injured by the water thief in Onozawa, it was killed by the salt thief in Douzigang, it was caused by the encounter with Gaoming Liren in western Liaoning, and this..."

There are dozens of scars one after another, large and small, with different depths, and these scars are all over the whole body.

Yang Guang stretched out his hand and caressed it, greatly amazed.

"Successful in a hundred battles, I only know what the rest of a hundred battles is today, Luo Cheng, you have worked hard."

"Luo Cheng, I've always had a puzzle, and I want to ask you for a solution today."

"The minister is willing to share your worries and doubts for His Majesty!"

"I am now approaching my forties. I have only had four sons in my life. Among them, the eldest son and the second son were born to Empress Xiao, the third son was born to Concubine Xiao, and the fourth son was born to Concubine Chen."

Speaking of this, Yang Guang was a little sad.

Only four sons were born in his life, which can be said to be weak.The eldest son, Yang Zhao, was born in the fourth year of Emperor Kaihuang, and was established as the crown prince in the first year of Daye. This eldest son is powerful, can draw a strong bow, has a gentle nature, a calm expression, and a frugal and simple life. It can be said that Yang Guang is very satisfied, but in Daye died of illness in the second year at the age of 23.

Of the remaining three sons, the fourth son died when he was born less than one year old, and the third son was only eight years old.

The only adult left is the second son, Yang Wei, who is the first son and is 30 years old this year.

"Since Prince Yuande died of illness in the second year of Daye, the position of prince has been vacant for eight years. I would like to ask you, should I appoint my second son, Yang Chen, as the prince, or my eldest grandson, Yang Tan?"

Luo Cheng was stunned.

He did not expect that the emperor actually asked him the question of establishing an heir.

How dare he answer such a question?
"Your Majesty, the prince is the crown prince of a country. Although the establishment of an heir is an important matter for the military and the country, it is also a matter for the emperor's family. The minister is only a military general. He will never frown when he goes to the battle for his majesty, but for such important matters, his majesty is the dictator of the holy heart." , or ask the prime minister or the elders, the minister dare not speak falsely."

After hearing this answer, the emperor was just silent, showing no joy or anger.
