Yang Guang and his party fled to Mount Li. Yuchi Dun sent troops to search the mountain. Although he shot and killed several dead soldiers who rescued Yang Guang, Yang Guang disappeared from then on.
There were many people at the scene, and the news spread quickly. There were a lot of discussions in Chang'an City. Everyone was speculating where Yang Guang had escaped, and there were all kinds of rumors for a while.
Some people have vivid legends, saying that they have seen a rich man on the Yushan Road southeast of Mount Li, who thought they were Yang Guang who fled; some people are saying that a floating corpse appeared on the bank of the Weikou River, and they were dressed in luxury, but they were Yang Guang who committed suicide by jumping into the water.
Another person was rumoring that it was insider news: On that day, after Yang Guang escaped from Baqiao Post, he changed his clothes and disguised himself and went to Longyou. Someone had met him near Xiaoguan.
There are also people saying that one day, there was a strange phenomenon in Wugu. A big bird fell from the sky and flew towards Shu with a young man. According to witnesses at the scene, the man was dressed in extraordinary clothes and was most likely to be the escaped Yang Guang.
The anxious Zhou government offered a reward to capture Yang Guang, but all kinds of news were flying everywhere. Witnesses met Yang Guang, and the authenticity was unknown. But at the same time, one thing that attracted attention from the public was Yang Yichen who rescued Yang Guang.
Yang Yichen knew that he was a loyal minister of the Yang family when he heard this name, and he did indeed make a loyal and righteous act.
For the people of Chang'an, whether it is the Yuan family, Yuwen family, Yang family or the court's surname, it doesn't matter. Whether it is Wei, Zhou, or Sui, as long as there is a loyal and righteous act, it is worthy of admiration.
The Central Plains have changed countless dynasties over the past few hundred years, and many loyal ministers and generals have left their names during this period. Now that Yang Sui is about to be destroyed, a loyal and righteous minister has crossed the sky like a meteor, so everyone will be chanting.
Yang Yichen's original surname was Yuchi, and he was Yuchi Yichen. His father, Yuchi Chong, served in Zhou and was a distant relative of Yuchi Jiong, the prime minister of the Zhou Kingdom. However, in the second year of Daxiang, he followed Yang Jian, the prime minister of the regent, and later became a minister of the Sui Kingdom.
A few years after Yang Jian became emperor, Yuchi Chong died in battle. Yuchi Yichen was raised by Yang Jian and was given the surname Yang and changed his name to Yang Yichen.
This time, the Zhou Kingdom recovered Chang'an, and the marshal Yuchi Dun came to Chang'an. Yang Yichen pretended to surrender to his surname Yuchi. After he deceived him, he led his men to rescue Yang Guang at Baqiao Post and was shot to death by arrows.
No one questioned Yang Yichen's ethics. His feat of saving Yang Guang from danger regardless of his personal safety is very admirable. Officials from Zhou did not show his owl to the public, but instead buried his body in the outskirts of Chang'an City.
There is a stone tablet with the letter "Yang Gong, the minister of loyalty and righteousness of Sui Dynasty, was named the tomb of the minister of Yi", and his actions are clear and will be kept in history.
The current situation is chaotic, and everyone hopes that such a loyal and righteous person will save him from danger. After Yuchi Yichen changed his name to Yang Yichen, he was loyal to the Yang family. Compared with that, the ethics of some people are despised.
During the second year of the Elephant, many Zhou ministers surrendered to Yang Jian and later became Sui ministers. Now that the Zhou State recovered Guanzhong, these people have transformed into "loyal ministers anyway". Compared with Yang Yichen, it is really a different story.
One of them was even more criticized.
Zheng Yi, Duke of Pei, whose courtesy name was Zhengyi, but it was not at all righteous. In the past, Zhou Taizu Yu Wen Tai was quite close to the young Zheng Yi and asked him to get along with his sons. Later, Emperor Gaozu Yu Wen Yong trusted him very much and asked him to be the close minister of the crown prince Yuwen Yun.
After Yuwen Yun ascended the throne, Zheng Yi was promoted to the top, but this man who had no great military achievements was granted a title of Duke. He had a bad reputation for being corrupt and abused the law. Later, Yuwen Yun was assassinated and died. Zheng Yi colluded with Duke Huang Liu Fang and transferred the power of regent to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian made great contributions to Zhou, Pei and Huang in the Sui Dynasty. Without him, the Zhou royal family would not have been killed and blood flowed into a river.
The two became ministers of the Sui State, but at the end of last year, they responded to Zhou's army and helped the Zhou army to capture Chang'an. Such repeated actions were really a swear word.
Liu Fang died on the night of Zhou's army entering Chang'an, and Zheng Yi lived happily until now. It was nothing for ordinary people, but with Yang Yichen's comparison, they would only hate Zheng Yi's character more and more.
God is blind, why didn’t there be a single lightning strike to kill this guy?
Zheng Yi killed so many Zhou royal families, and now the Zhou army commander who has recovered Chang'an, the royal family member Yu Wen Liang forgave him, which makes people sigh at Duke Qi's magnanimity. Those who know a little about the current situation know that this is a story that imitates the story of Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, Feng Yongchi.
If you know more, you will know that Yuwen Liang was trying to win over the original traitors of the Zhou State and prepare for the confrontation with Prime Minister Yuchi. Of course, for ordinary people who are busy making a living, it is said that the Duke of Qi State is too soft-hearted.
"Oh, my brother just came back from Anzhou, Shannan. He heard that Zheng Yi was having a good time in An 6."
"It's delicious? How do you say this?"
"Someone invites him to eat, drink and have fun!"
"Wow, who is this? I'm so brave, aren't you afraid that the court will blame me?"
"Who else can you? One-legged bronze man!"
"One-legged Bronze Man? It turns out it was him, no wonder."
In a bookstore in Chang'an, two of the few people looking for books were chatting, and the third person was a little confused: "Who is this one-legged bronze man?"
"You don't know? The one-legged bronze man is Zhu Gongwen."
"Pig male plague? Is it a plague that only Pig male plague?"
"It was named by the State of Zhu, and Yuwen was named Wen."
"Oh, Zhu Country, it has a lot of connection with Qi Country, uh, could it be..."
"That's right, they are all family members. This Duke of Zhu is different from ordinary people. He is said to be fond of eating human flesh and often forcibly robbing women..."
"Let's talk about it, there are so many rumors in the market that there are falsehoods. Wouldn't you hear the story of three people becoming tigers?"
"Of course, I think the so-called "Duke of Zhu" who is addicted to eating human flesh and often forcibly robbing women is a rumor. However, it is true that he often invites Zheng Yi to banquets during the 6th period. It is said that he wants to learn music and play Hu Pipa."
Zheng Yi is notorious, but no one questioned his musical accomplishments. During the chat, several people thought that this "Zhu Gongwen" and his Bo "Qi Gongliang" were as tolerant and generous as a man, but in order to learn Hu Pipa, he had a thick face and was not afraid of being criticized.
All his family members were almost decisive by Zheng Yi. Yuwen Wen was so happy that he dared to invite Zheng Yi to eat, drink and have fun in order to learn a pipa. Could it be that as long as he had a skill, he could make a living from Duke Zhu?
"All of them are relatives. Prince Qi is called a gentleman. This Zhu Gongwen is a little different."
After a while of chatting, he chose the book and paid to leave. In a corner of the bookstore, Liu Wenjing, who was flipping through the book, raised her head and recalled the comments she had just heard, thinking about it.
Zhou Jun recovered Chang'an and the situation in Guanzhong had stabilized. He and his family came to Chang'an to live temporarily to avoid the wars around him. When they had nothing to do, they went to the bookstore to stroll around, and the newly published copybook appeared.
It was a copybook published by Huangzhou Xuexiu Club, for people to practice calligraphy. Of course, it was published in the popular thread-bound form of books nowadays, with cheap prices and good quality. The model essay was written by Zhong Yao's calligraphy, which was familiar to Liu Wenjing.
The full text is rubbed on the stone tablet of Xiyue Temple. The publication date is less than two months after Yuwen Wen copied the inscription at Xiyue Temple. On that day, Liu Wenjing happened to meet the other party at Xiyue Temple. The publication rate afterwards is so fast that it is simply incredible.
After choosing the books and paying for them, Liu Wenjing asked the servant to carry the books and walk on the street by himself. Seeing the pedestrians coming and going, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
After struggling for several years, I still have to change the soup but not the medicine!
At the beginning of the second year of the Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Tianyuan Yuwen Yun was assassinated. Seeing that the Yuwen royal family was about to assist in the administration, the powerful families who were afraid that another Yuwen Hu would be released would be impatient to stand on Yang Jian's side who was assisting in the administration.
After a war, Yang Jian used the Sui Dynasty to dynasty, and these powerful families became heroes of the new dynasty. When the Zhou army conquered Chang'an, the Sui Kingdom was about to perish. Most of these people changed their appearance and became loyal ministers anyway.
Liu Wenjing had already seen that Yuwen Liang wanted to win over these people and fight against the prime minister Yuchi Jiong, who was arbitrary to the court. The Yuchi clan itself married the aristocratic families, and would inevitably forgive those in-laws who had defected to Yang Jian, so as not to encourage Yuwen Liang's power.
The country's name has changed, but civil and military officials have not changed much. They are all those aristocratic families, families, powerful people and their children. The aristocratic politics since the Wei and Jin Dynasties are still deeply rooted.
When will these poor children have more opportunities to make a name for themselves?
