On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 503
In Daxing City, Tang Guogong Li Yuan had a sad face, lamenting his current situation from time to time.

In today's world, there is Cui Che in the north and Yang Guang in the south, and the two are fighting each other, but he does not please both sides.

Investigate its reason, but also to talk about an old past.

During the period of Emperor Wu of Zhou, Duke Dou Yi of Shenwu County recruited a son-in-law for his daughter. The daughter of the Dou family enjoyed a high reputation in Guanzhong. Thus rose to fame.

It is well known that Zhou Wu Emperor Yu Wenyong loved her, so the matter of the Dou family's daughter recruiting a husband caused a sensation in the city.

Among them were three teenagers gearing up, vowing to embrace the beauty.

One was Tang Guogong Li Yuan, the second was Yang Guang, the second son of Sui Guogong Yang Jian, and the third was Cui Che, who was well-known among scholars because of Xu Menlixue's incident.

Of course, the results are well known. In the end, Li Yuan was selected and Yang Guang returned in a bad mood. As for Cui Che, who practiced archery hard for this, he couldn't even get in.

Unexpectedly, Feng Shui turns around, the two frustrated people at the beginning are now the emperor of the Western Sui Dynasty, and the other is a powerful minister of the Eastern Sui Dynasty.

And it just so happens that the stamina of these two people is not too big.

Li Yuan's mother and Dugu Jialuo are sisters of the same father, and they are naturally cousins, but Yang Guang does not recognize him as a relative.

Once, Yang Guang summoned Li Yuan to visit the saint, but Li Yuan was unable to make the trip due to illness. Yang Guang asked Li Yuan's niece, Queen:

'Why is your uncle so late? '

When Wang told Yang Guang that Li Yuan was sick in bed, Yang Guang asked happily:

'Sick and dying? '

Li Yuan was so frightened that he drank excessively and accepted bribes wantonly to tarnish his name, so he managed to live until now.

Such a good thing as going to the south of the Yangtze River was naturally not Li Yuan's turn, and Li Yuan did not dare to send his wife and concubines to Jiangdu for resettlement.

Although his wife, Dou Shi, is no longer young, Li Yuan is really not sure about Yang Guang's attitude. He stayed in the north and sent his wife to Jiangdu. .

However, Dou's stay in Guanzhong cannot be said to be a peace of mind.

After all, there is another one who claims to lead an army of 50 to attack Cui Che, who is eyeing Puzhou.

Li Yuan was very helpless, no matter if it was Yang Guang or Cui Che, these people who hold great power are not in trouble, why are they always thinking about other people's wives.

Needless to say, Yang Guang, as soon as his father Yang Jian died, he was busy steaming his mother and having fun with Yang Jian's concubines.

As for Cui Che, it was even more important.

A few days ago, news came from Kanto that Cui Che accepted his wife as his side concubine before his eldest grandson's body was cold.

Li Yuan feels that his current situation is that there are wolves in the front and tigers in the back.

Yang Guang in the south wanted to die, let alone Cui Che in the east. According to gossip, Cui Che had quarreled with Princess Leping in the early years, and Princess Leping would even talk about Dou.

If he really fell into Cui Che's hands, he might not end well.

Just as Li Yuan was sobbing, a young man walked into the wing.

"Why did Grandpa sigh so long?"

The boy wondered.

This boy is not very old, he is only ten years old, but his behavior is quite mature, like the late Yuande Prince Yang Zhao, but compared to Yang Zhao, the boy is a bit more intelligent and decisive.

"It's Erlang who came. Now the country is in misfortune, the traitors are acting fiercely, and he is worried about the country for his father, so he sighs."

Li Yuan said perfunctorily.

This ten-year-old boy is Li Yuan and the second son of the Dou family, Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's early wisdom, how can he be fooled so easily, it's not that he doesn't know the real relationship between his father and his cousin Yang Guang, he is not so much worried about the community, but worried about his own future.

But the crisis that his father is facing now cannot be solved by a ten-year-old boy.

I can only comfort him:
"Father, don't worry about this. When the two Weis were fighting each other, Gao Huan's 20 troops marched westward. However, Emperor Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty suffered a severe drought and lost seven or eight out of ten of his population. The available soldiers were less than [-], but he was able to fight in the Shayuan After the First World War laid the foundation of Zhou and Sui, Cui Che might not make the same mistakes as Gao Huan.

"Cui Che falsely claimed that he raised 50 troops, but it was just to intimidate the ignorant people. Otherwise, how many civilians would have to be mobilized to supply the needs of the frontline.

"Thus, my boy thought that after the rent adjustment reform and the sharp drop in salt benefits, Cui Che's 50 yuan is probably counting civilian husbands, and the people who can really fight must be his 20 elites.

"As the saying goes, when the moon is full, it loses, and when the water is full, it overflows.

"Cui Che has been smooth and invincible before, and his troops must be arrogant. The so-called arrogant soldiers must be defeated, and it is time for Cui Che to stumble."

Even though Li Shimin's these were just his own speculations, used to comfort his father and encourage Li Yuan to cheer up, it has to be said that Li Yuan did indeed regain his spirits because of his words.

He said with emotion:

"Erlang, you were born to someone else by mistake. Whether it was Cui Qiji who lived in Xuzhou, or Yang Zhao who died young, they just made you a little older. When it comes to intelligence, how can they compare with you."

Li Shimin said seriously:

"Even if a son has talent, it is also taught by his parents. Please don't say such words."

Li Yuan nodded when he heard the words, and asked again:

"Why did you come here today?"

Li Shimin was stunned, he smiled and said:
"The boy was only focused on talking to grandpa, but forgot to hand over the letter sent back by elder brother to grandpa."

As he spoke, he handed over the letter that Li Jiancheng sent from Jiangdu.

According to the Sui Dynasty, at the age of [-], one cannot follow his parents to work abroad.

Li Jiancheng was born in the ninth year of Kaihuang, at the age of 20, and now he is an official in Jiangdu, and he often communicates with his family.

After reading the letter, Li Yuan turned pale.

Li Shimin was puzzled and said:

"But bad news came from Jiangdu?"

Li Yuan didn't answer, he handed the letter paper to Li Shimin and asked him to read it by himself.

Li Shimin looked at it, and couldn't help but turn pale, it turned out that Yang Guang rejected the proposal to ask Tuyuhun for help.

Li Yuan sighed:
"The sage has always been proud, and now he is also this proud, unwilling to ask Tuyuhun for help."

Li Shimin stomped his feet angrily:

"In just four years, the entire Kanto has been lost. Seeing that Cui Che is about to enter the Guanzhong and dominate the north, the imperial court can only settle in the south. At such a critical moment, he still cares about the so-called face. It is simply stupid."

Li Yuan was startled, quickly blocked Li Shimin's mouth, and reprimanded:

"When misfortune comes from your mouth, how can you talk about your majesty in vain?"

Li Shimin had no choice but to nod to Li Yuan, indicating that he would not talk about Yang Guang anymore. When Li Yuan let go of his hand, Li Shimin lowered his voice and suggested:

"Since the Son of Heaven has no way and always has the intention of harming his father, such a foolish king cannot be assisted. Why didn't my father simply join the Eastern Army."

Li Yuan sighed again. Yang Guang is a wolf and Cui Che is a tiger. If he really voted for him, he might die suddenly one day, and his wife, Dou Shi, would follow in the footsteps of Gao Shi, and be taken into prison by him. , Wanton abuse.

　In the last chapter, Li Yuan was written as Li Hu at the end, which has been corrected.
