Great Sui Dynasty

After late autumn, the weather turns cold rapidly after winter. Although Jiangdu is located in the south, the terrain is open and the wind is particularly strong. Unlike Licheng, which is surrounded by mountains, although it is cold, there are few strong winds.

It has been less than half a month since Yang Wei took control of Jiangdu. Yang Hao didn't plan to stay in Jiangdu for so long, but the situation in Jiangdu is very complicated, and it will be difficult to deal with it for a while, and he brought all the generals who can handle political affairs. No, although Zhang Xutuo is also a prefect, he has no clue about the situation in Jiangdu, so Yang Hao needs to personally intervene in all matters. Fortunately, all the officials in Jiangdu City are loyal to him under the leadership of Pei Ju. And he is also very generous in ignoring past suspicions, which has shared a lot for him, but it is not a person who has always followed him, so it is a bit difficult to use, for example, he is arguing about the reconstruction of the palace right now.

"This official believes that the palace should be rebuilt. This is a matter of my face in the Sui Dynasty. At that time, Emperor Gaozu and the first emperor also built the palace for the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty, so it should be rebuilt now!" An official quoted the classics, and finally took Yang Guanghe Yang Jian said something, just to save face and to rejoice.

"No! Now Jiangdu is in chaos, and people are determined. If there is still a lot of construction at this time, there is no guarantee that someone who is interested will take advantage of it!" Another official immediately jumped out to object.

"It's because of the new chaos, and the prince has just taken over Jiangdu. He is afraid that some disobedient people will take the opportunity to cause chaos, so it is even more necessary to rebuild the palace, so that no one will just want to cause chaos!" The previous official refused to admit defeat, and he What he said was not unreasonable.There are many people who took refuge in Yu Wenhua and were pardoned by Yang Hao in the end, and his worries are quite normal.

"Okay, what's the point of being so noisy!" Pei Ju couldn't help but stop him when he saw the noisy scene, because Yang Hao was still present. Although he had some dealings with Yang Hao, he didn't know who Yang Hao was. What kind of person is he? He only knows his rumored side of loving the people like a son. Judging from the series of policies implemented in Jiangdu these days, they are definitely for the benefit of the people.But if there is only a benevolent side, it is impossible to sit on hundreds of thousands of troops and become the overlord in less than a year. won't believe it.

"This matter will be decided by the lord!" Pei Ju said and cupped his fists towards Yang Hao who was drinking tea leisurely.Of course, as soon as he reminded this sentence, all the officials stopped talking and looked at Yang Hao.

"You all have reasons for what you say. Jiangdu City has just stabilized. If you do such a waste of money and money, it will inevitably cause anger and resentment. This king rejects it from the bottom of his heart. Moreover, this king's palace in Licheng is just from the hands of merchants. I bought it here, so it’s not as big as your mansion, so don’t mention the matter of the cultivation palace in the future, as long as I can take care of it for a day, I can’t repair it for a day!” Although Yang Hao’s words were light, they were heard in everyone’s ears. It was like a bolt from the blue, especially when he said that his palace is not as good as the residence of some ministers, it is more like a heart-breaking statement.

"The ministers are terrified!" After being told by Yang Hao, all the ministers broke out in cold sweat.Even those who opposed the re-cultivation palace just now were not happy.

"But!" Yang Hao ignored them, but continued: "It is still necessary to build civil engineering. It is related to my face in the Sui Dynasty. It can't be too hasty!" Yang Hao made such a turning point, and the minister who was crying just now suddenly Their eyes lit up, but they didn't dare to answer casually because of Yang Hao's words against building construction.

"This royal family has promised to the soldiers under the tent that as long as the soldier dies for the country, then a hero monument will be built in the county where he died for the country to commemorate their heroic spirits, so that future generations will never forget their deeds of sacrifice for the country , and now the king has built hero monuments in Licheng and Rencheng of Lu County, and in Jiangdu, thousands of soldiers under my tent died for the country, this hero monument must be built!" Yang Hao said They said that the big construction was to build a hero monument, which they never thought of. Of course, after Yang Hao finished speaking, Pei Ju's eyes lit up. No wonder this gentle-looking prince can quickly grow into an overlord. Sure enough, you can't look at its surface!

"My lord is holy!" Pei Ju was the first to express his opinion. Yang Hao was not discussing with them, but had already made a decision. He just told them, and asked them to be more sensible and cooperate.

"My lord is holy!" The other officials were not fools, and when Pei Ju made such a statement, they had no choice but to follow suit.

At this moment, Xu Shiji walked in from the door.

"My lord!" Xu Shiji bowed to Yang Hao, then bowed his hands to everyone present, and the rest of the people also returned their salutes one after another. They all knew that Yang Hao's Qingzhou direct line couldn't be offended, especially that crazy and unreasonable Cheng. The fact that Xu Shiji can go in and out freely without notification shows that his degree of favor is not comparable to those who changed their surname halfway.

"What's the matter with Mao Gong?" Yang Wei asked, if there was no urgent matter, Xu Shiji wouldn't have come in suddenly without notifying him at this time.

"My lord, Yang Yichen sent someone to see him, saying that he wants to submit to the lord's tent!" Xu Shiji glanced at the people around him, and then said loudly.

"Oh~ it's true at this time?!" Yang Hao was still a little happy in his heart. Without the threat of Yang Yichen's 10 horses, he would feel more at ease when he left Jiangdu.However, the rest of the officials were shocked. They did not expect that Yang Yichen, who had [-] soldiers, bowed his head to King Qi.

"Really! This person is currently on the subordinate ship!" Xu Shiji replied.

"Well! Tell him, let him tell Yang Yichen, let Yang Yichen cross the river to see the king in person, the king will wait for him at the south gate, if he really wants to surrender, the king will welcome him!" Yang Hao knew that this was the case. Yang Yichen's temptation was to see if he would be confiscated immediately after surrendering, and Yang Wei could understand all this, and he also got a piece of information from it. In fact, no matter who got this Jiangdu City, he, Yang Yichen, would go to curry favor with him, after all All the food and drink expenses of his 10 troops need to be transferred from Jiangdu. Of course, Yang Yichen can support himself as a mercenary, but in that case, will the master of Jiangdu let such a big force around? Hurry up, it's just that Yang Hao is dealing with Jiangdu's affairs and ignores him for the time being.

"Yes, this subordinate is going to reply to that person!" Xu Shiji took the order and left.

"All of you, go with me to meet Xing County Lord!" Yang Hao is basically sure that Yang Yichen will come by himself. After all, Yang Yichen belongs to his Yang family. It still belongs to his Yang family.

When Yang Hao led a group of officials to the south gate, he saw that the boat that Xu Shiji had sent to pick up Yang Yichen had already sailed back. Sincerely willing to surrender, but Xu Shiji must do well in terms of etiquette, the so-called etiquette first and then soldiers.

"Criminal Yang Yichen has met His Royal Highness King Qi!" Yang Yichen saw that Yang Hao was meeting him at the gate of the city, walked up to Yang Hao in three steps at a time, knelt down on one knee, and called himself a criminal.

"Is there any crime in Xing County's reconciliation? Hurry up and get up!" Saying that, he was about to help Yang Yichen.

"The guilty minister failed to return to the teacher in time to rescue His Majesty when His Majesty was in danger, so that His Majesty was persecuted by the Yuwen thieves, I am guilty!" Yang Yichen refused to get up, and still kept saying that he was guilty.

"According to Lord Xingxian, isn't this king even more guilty? This king also failed to save his father in time, and the ministers in Jiangdu also failed to stop the Yuwen thief's conspiracy, so shouldn't they be more damned?!" Yang Wu asked back.

"This..." Yang Yichen had nothing to say, he knew that Yang Hao was making excuses for him, and he didn't want to embarrass him, the last trace of worry in his heart disappeared, and he was able to admit his mistakes and forgive others The wrong person will at least not be a hypocritical person, he knows that his choice is right.The surrounding officials were also ashamed. If Yang Yichen was guilty of failing to return to the teacher in time, then they would be even more guilty of not swearing to protect His Majesty to the death.

"Haha, it's good that the Duke of Xing County is here. Who doesn't know that the Duke of Xing County is brave and wise. This king has already prepared a banquet in the city. When the Duke of Xing County arrives, everyone will go together!" Yang Wei Pick up Yang Yichen and lead him and a group of officials back to the city.

"I don't know how the battle in the south of the Yangtze River is going?" After drinking for three rounds, Yang Wei asked Yang Yichen.

"I am ashamed, although Liu Yuanjin was suppressed, but I have not been able to eliminate him!" Speaking of the war in Jiangnan, Yang Yichen felt a little unnatural, after all, he took the initiative to retreat.

"I can't blame the county magistrate for this matter. Many of the county magistrate's soldiers and horses are from the north. Liu Yuanjin is a native of the country. His subordinates are familiar with the terrain. It is normal that it is difficult to destroy it for a while. What's more, Yu Wenhua is in control of the government. Presumably the county magistrate is everywhere. Be restrained by it!"

"Chen..." Yang Yichen didn't know what to say, and Yang Hao seemed to be defending him all the time.

"Well, the county magistrate doesn't have to worry about the war in the south of the Yangtze River!" Yang Hao said suddenly, and Yang Yichen's heart tightened when he heard it. Could it be that he could not escape the fate of being released from military power after all?

"Now the Turks in the north are about to move, and the county magistrate once defeated the Turks. This king wants the magistrate to lead troops to guard against it. I wonder what the magistrate will do?"

"Yes! I am willing!" The excitement in Yang Yichen's heart was still in the ground just now, but now it is like heaven. Although the military power has always been in his own hands, it has two completely different endings compared to just now.

"Since the county magistrate has no objection, then the battle in the south of the Yangtze River will be handed over to the Qingzhou Navy. Xu Shiji obeys the order!"

"The subordinate is here!" Xu Shiji immediately stepped out.

"My king ordered you to be the deputy commander of the Navy, and assist the commander, General Zhou Faxing, to destroy the rebels in the south of the Yangtze River!" Yang Hao ordered, not to mention Xu Shiji, but everyone sitting here was surprised. This Zhou Faxing seemed to have no friendship with King Qi. ?And isn't it said to be dead?In fact, Zhou Faxing was seriously injured and captured, and was not rescued until Yang Hao broke through Jiangdu. He was raised for half a month and he was fine, and he had already pledged his allegiance to Yang Hao.And Zhou Faxing's appearance gave Yang Hao a surprise. He was worried that no one would lead the navy. Although Xu Shiji was not bad at leading the navy, Xu Shiji's talent did not depend on who was the best. His world and stage were on land, but Zhou Faxing has always been Lai Huer's lieutenant general, and he has also been in command of the Sui Dynasty's navy, so it is perfect for him to be the commander of the navy.

"Yes! The subordinates take orders!" Xu Shiji knew that Yang Hao's arrangement had his own reasons. In terms of employing people, as long as they were Yang Hao's direct descendants, they would not object to Yang Hao's arrangement, because they knew that in terms of employing people and discovering talents, Yang Hao is like a god.
