Chapter 589 Queen's suggestion
The news of the rebels in Jinyang spread, which made the world's rebels boil and the family shocked, because this was the representative of the Li family and one of the highest reputation among the Guanlong nobles, and had to be valued.
Although Li Yuan's career has not been prosperous in recent years, he is a royal relative after all, and he is a cousin with Yang Guang, a grandfather, and a relative with the Dugu family and the Yang family. In addition, Li Yuan's original wife, Dou, was a talented daughter of the Dou family, which made the Dou family's children also have a relative with Li Yuan.
His soldiers, Li, Dugu, and Dou, all went to join him, and their power grew rapidly and they were full of talents.
This is the advantage of the family. The children of the wealthy clan feel that the leader who follows this identity will not be humiliated. Moreover, only if such a wealthy family starts a military force can take into account the interests of the wealthy clans, they cannot trust those heroes who are born in the wild.
The anti-Sui movement in the entire north was in full swing.
Jiangdu Palace.
Yang Guang got some news and was furious. He was furious and threw up porcelain bottles and clay pots in the palace and jade artifacts to vent his anger.
"If you rebel, you will be rebel. If you rebel, you should be punished!" Yang Guang shouted loudly. He was the only one in the hall, the maid and the eunuch, who were driven out by him.
After venting, Yang Guang sat decadently on the jade steps, looking at the stone walls of carved dragons and painted phoenixes, the magnificent dome, and the dragon bed made of pure gold. These are the majesty and luxury of the royal family of the dynasty, which made Yang Guang feel strong reluctance and nostalgia.
He had a premonition that the country was falling apart and there was no cure for help. The road from Jiangdu to Luoyang was blocked by the rebels. Yang Guang had no intention of fighting against the rioters. He just wanted to enjoy it and continue to live a luxurious imperial life. He could last for another ten or twenty years and die.
Throughout his life, Yang Guang felt that he had done enough big things, digging canals, connecting north and south, and building the Great Wall, which was no less than the Qin Great Wall. He asked foreign countries to come to worship and call him Tian Khan. This was enough, and he would no longer have the desire to make great achievements.
At this time, the hall door opened, and Empress Xiao walked in, wearing a gorgeous dress with her upper and lower skirts. The long gown was goose yellow, the collar and cuffs were embroidered with gold silk, and the silk brocade was inlaid with grace and luxuriousness.
Below is a circular multi-pleated skirt with an arc-shaped style that is close to the hips, and is slanted wide and in a straight line. A thin strap around the waist makes the waist look slim.
Queen Xiao's skin is as snow as snow, shiny and tense, and has a beautiful national beauty. She is now 45 or 46 years old. However, because of her good maintenance, she is proficient in some medical skills and has good beauty. She looks less than 40 years old. She has a full figure, a slender waist, and still has charm.
It's like a ripe apple, exuding a ripe smell from the inside out.
Although Yang Guang wandered among the concubines all day long, he had countless women, and was fickle, and had no idea how many women he hugged for fun in one day, he still respected this married wife very much and rarely got angry with her.
"Your Majesty, why are you so angry today? Are you worried about anything?" Queen Xiao asked softly.
"It's against it, and all of them are rebelling. Many rebels are rapidly rising in the southwest, causing trouble and endangering Daxing City. Liu Wuzhou, Liang Shidu, Xue Ju, and Li Gui. Most of these rebel leaders are local generals of our Sui army. They have rebelled now, and the impact is extremely bad. I feel that everyone is going to betray their relatives."
Yang Guang lost his ambition, but instead he had the poet's unique gloomy emotions, sentimentality, and became vitiligo, and the most taboo thing about being betrayed by his own people.
After hearing this, Empress Xiao was secretly shocked and worried that the northwest was the gateway and a place of heavy troops. Once it rebelled, it would be easy to unite with the Turks and the Western Regions and threaten the Sui Dynasty.
The Green Forest Bandits rebelled before, but now they have joined local generals, so the situation is difficult to control.
"The Jiangdu side is not peaceful. I heard Pei Ju and Sima Dezhan report that Du Fuwei and the descendants of the Chen clan are united to siege our Jiangdu County and completely trap me in Jiangdong. At present, Danyang Fugongtuo, Piling Shen Faxing, Hailing Li Zitong, Wujun Liu Yuanjin, Yuzhang Lin Shihong and others are all ready to move and send troops to Jiangdu County, and are attacked from both sides. How can I enjoy myself with peace of mind?"
Yang Guang became sadder the more he spoke. A great Sui Dynasty became so rich that he had no intention of taking care of it. He just wanted to spend the rest of his life here smoothly, and was just as happy as he could enjoy the glory and wealth of the emperor.
Back then, he was young and sharp-minded. In order to obtain the throne, he was always low-key and restrained. He did not let go of luxury or extreme desires. After ascending the throne, he hurriedly made great achievements and made great progress. He went on a southern and northern tours. Now that he has lost his ambitions, he has discovered that enjoyment is also a great blessing in life.
Queen Xiao sighed aside, seeing her husband depressed his will day by day, and no longer had the ambitions and emperor style he had before, and his every move, behavior and thoughts now are all signs of a king who was destroyed.
"Your Majesty, you are the master of this country after all. Even if you don't work hard, you can make a decree to mobilize loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and to help you solve your worries and difficulties."
"When Zhang Xutuo dies, who else has the ability to suppress those rebellions?" Yang Guang sighed decadently.
Empress Xiao's eyes lit up and she said, "Your Majesty, don't forget that there is another lucky general in our Sui Dynasty, your son-in-law, Luo Cheng's child, she married the princess, and was loyal to the court, so she can send him to fight against the rebels."
Yang Guang shook his head and said, "He is already trapped in Zhuo County. He is blocked by Dou Jiande's troops in the south, and there are Khitan and Goguryeo to the north, so it is difficult to mobilize troops."
Empress Xiao explained: "Your Majesty, there are soldiers in various places, but there are no generals. There are also lack of generals like Zhang Xutuo and Luo Cheng. You can lower an imperial edict and mobilize Luo Cheng to the northwest. When Tuyuhun was eliminated, the group of soldiers stationed in Xihai County were all his old subordinates. If he could go over to command, he could prevent the soldiers and soldiers of Xihai County from rebelling in the chaos and rebelling on their own, and suppressing Xue Ju, Li Gui and others in the northwest. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"
After hearing this, Yang Guang suddenly felt a little bit inspired and thought this suggestion was very good.
"Okay, I'll ask the secretary-general Yuan Chong to draft an edict, and conferred Duke Luo of Youguo as the Grand Marshal of Pingxi, and rush to Xihai County from now on to mobilize the soldiers of the Northwest Prefecture to fight against the rebellion of the traitors such as Xue Ju and Li Gui!"
Empress Xiao said again: "As for the safety of Jiangdu County, among the military generals that Your Majesty is following, there are Zhao Cai, Lai Huer, Yu Juluo, Pei Qiantong, Wang Shichong and other generals. Why worry about not being able to deal with bandits such as Du Fuwei?"
Yang Guang nodded after hearing this, and then he regained some confidence.
