Zhu Changxiao's version of the Sui Dynasty

There are unpredictable winds and clouds in the sky. When a horsetail cloud appears in the sky, it is most likely a precursor to a typhoon. In ancient times, it was called a sea breeze. As soon as the wind officer told the news, He Man, who had been at sea for many years and had rich experience, was shocked.

Zhu Kuan, who had not much experience at sea, saw He Man frowning with surprise and said to Zhu Kuan:"The sea wind is coming, the wind force is coming." It's so big that it sweeps across the world, like a devastation, like a dragon soaring and clouds surging. Hundreds of warships are vulnerable. It's better for us to evacuate as soon as possible."

"Going to sea is not easy, it costs a lot of money, and the big thing has not been accomplished. How can I explain to the emperor just to capture a cave owner alive?"Zhu Kuandao

"The five-toothed warship is an important weapon of the country. If it is blown down by the sea wind, there will be no return."

Hearing what He Man said, Zhu Kuan, as the commander of the navy, took a few steps back and forth and realized that the situation was serious. He Man warned:"The warship is worrying, so we should take action."

Zhu Kuan immediately ordered Feng Xiangguan to pass the order, ordering the three armies to break camp immediately, board the ship in advance, and evacuate early before the sea wind came. When these soldiers crossing the sea heard Ma Weiyun, they all became angry. The soldiers in the camp did not dare to neglect and immediately packed up. The camp luggage was transferred to the seaside, and the ship was weighed early.

The captured cave owner Na Ya was tied up by Wu Hua Da and escorted to board the ship. Na Ya was originally waiting for an opportunity to escape, but unexpectedly he was taken aboard the ship and yelled at him as he went. He screamed and roared:"Let me go, I won't leave the island! I won’t leave the island!"

A soldier pressed the cave owner's teeth and said harshly:"I will take you back to Sui Dynasty today. You will never return to Yizhou."

"No--! No--! I won’t go to Sui Dynasty, I won’t go......."

Although the ancestors of Na Ya were Han Chinese, they had been living on Yizhou Island for several generations and knew nothing about the mainland across the sea. When they heard that they were going to be taken back to the other side of the strait, they shouted loudly. Yelled, so anxious that he burst into tears.

Hundreds of warships set sail one after another, sailing away from the Yizhou Islands and heading west. The tied up Na Ya sat on the deck dully, looking desperately at the vast sea, crying bitterly from time to time, reluctant to leave Yizhou Island.

Looking at Na Ya's desperate expression, Haishi He Man came over and said with a slight smile:"Na Ya Cave Master, the Sui Dynasty is far more prosperous than Yizhou, why are you in so much pain?"

"I grew up in Yizhou. This time I am far away from home. When will the Sui Dynasty let me go home? He Man laughed loudly:"

Back then, King Huansi of Tu once boasted to Haikou that if he wanted to recover the Yizhou Islands, he would have to transport 30,000 cavalry. Do you really think that the Sui Dynasty could not transport 30,000 cavalry?""

"The King of Earth has never been here and would never have imagined that you have so many big ships."

"To be honest, the Sui Dynasty could build hundreds of sea-crossing warships in a year, and it was only a matter of time before Liuqiu could be recaptured! If there hadn't been an approaching sea breeze this time, with fifteen thousand soldiers, I would have been able to reach Boluotan Cave!"

"well......"Na Ya lamented:"If this is the case, the Earth King is in danger."

He Man said:"Come back to the Sui Dynasty with us obediently. The Sui Dynasty is a vast land with vast resources and endless resources. There are many things you can't think of."

The Second Eastern Expedition to Yizhou The islands were hit by a typhoon just after it started, and it ended early. Sure enough, a few days later, a typhoon swept through Yizhou Island, and 15,000 Sui army soldiers were lucky enough to escape. It can be said that the ancients were afraid of difficulties when crossing the sea, and the rough waves hit the building and the boat.

The crumbling water is swaying, and you can see hundreds of rivers in a narrow escape.

The fleet sailed into the Yangtze River Estuary. Affected by the sea wind, heavy rains continued in Yangzhou and Jiankang for several days. When Yang Hong, the king of Hejian, learned that the fleet was returning, he hurriedly braved the light rain and went to the embankment to greet them in person.

He Man, Zhu Kuan and other generals escorted Na Ya, the captured gyro cave master, to the shore and paid homage to Yang Hong, the king of the river.

Yang Hong, the king of Hejian, met Zhu Kuan and He Man. He stepped forward and took their arms, and said excitedly:"It's good to come back, it's good to come back. It has been raining these days, and the lonely king is expected to have a strong sea breeze." , I was afraid that the fleet would encounter a strong sea wind."

Zhu Kuan said:"Fortunately, the Mawei Yun was discovered early, and the fleet escaped the disaster. One warship was not damaged and all returned."

""Okay, okay," King Yang Hong of Hejian asked again,"How is the situation going during this eastern expedition?""

Zhu Kuan said:"We had originally captured Na Ya, the master of the Liangshan Pass Gyro Cave, but the sea wind was coming and it was difficult to find shelter on the island. In order to protect the Five Ya warship, we had to return early. Yang

Hong nodded and said:"Although the results of this eastern expedition were mediocre, being able to capture the Lord of Naya Cave can be regarded as a credit. The lonely king will return to the capital next month and will ask for credit from the two generals.""

At this time, Gyro Dongzhu Na Ya, who was captured alive, was escorted past the eyes of the King of Hejian. Yang Hong, the King of Hejian, pointed and asked:"Who is this person?……"

"This person is the Gyro Cave Master Na Ya who was captured alive by us."

"Um. Yang Hong nodded and said:"Your Majesty is very concerned about the recovery of Yizhou. The weather is not favorable for this eastern expedition, but it is successful in capturing the enemy. The lonely king will personally escort Naya to Beijing to present to Your Majesty.""

Zhu Kuan asked:"Why does Qiansui need to go in person? We will do it for you." Yang

Hong smiled and said:"The lonely king wants to persuade this cave master to surrender and become a naturalized citizen. Only if he surrenders to me, the Sui Dynasty, will the native people on Yizhou Island be willing to submit.""

"Chitose is really a good person."

Although the second attack on Liuqiu Kingdom was unsuccessful, it can be considered a mixed success. At any rate, a cave master was captured. The memorial has already been sent to the capital with fast horses....

In the Ning'an Palace, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty walked around holding the memorial of the King of Hejian. He was not disappointed, but rather curious. Empress Xiao asked:"What did you gain from the Eastern Expedition to Yizhou? Let me tell you."

"The eastward expedition to Liuqiu was stopped due to strong winds, but Zhu Kuan captured a native leader."

"What are the natives like?"

"The King of Hejian did not say anything, but only suggested that the natives be escorted back to the capital, taught and converted using Sui etiquette, and then lead the Yizhou islanders to submit to the Sui Dynasty."

Queen Xiao nodded and said:"Since he is a leader, if he can sincerely submit, he will surely lead many natives to do so."

"I have thought about it, and I want to let this native leader travel around his hometown in the Sui Dynasty and see the royal palaces and their majesty."

"The concubine felt that letting the native see the two capitals would be enough to convince him, so why bother going so far?"

"No."Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty said proudly:"I will build new palaces in Bingzhou and Youzhou, so that the land in all directions will be covered with the majesty of the Sui Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking frankly. Last year, the Great Wall and Chidao were overhauled, and countless people from Bingzhou and Youzhou were recruited. Why should we go to war this year just to subdue a prisoner?

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty said:"The Queen's words are wrong. The reason why I built more Guangsha palaces is to expand the big cities along with the palaces and let the people prosper together." Now it seems that the people are suffering a little bit. When there are many buildings and the streets are prosperous, the people all over the world will understand my painstaking efforts."

"I remember Zhuge Ying once said that those who govern a large country are like cooking small delicacies. Your Majesty should learn from the good advice of the ancients and postpone the construction of additional palaces for a while."

Queen Xiao's repeated admonitions made Emperor Sui Yang feel bored. He said to Queen Xiao with a bit of contempt:"Zhuge Ying is old, he can't keep up with me."After that, Emperor Sui Yang flicked his sleeves and left with a displeased expression.

After leaving Ning'an Palace, Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty went to Chongwen Pavilion and ordered people to send Xiao Cong, Yu Wenshu, Yu Shiji, Pei Yun, Zhang Heng and Su Wei were the most trusted ministers.

Emperor Sui Yang felt that he was embarrassed by Empress Xiao, so he expressed his plans to build new palaces in Bingzhou and Youzhou.

After hearing this, the six ministers were all silent. Silent, although the officials of the Jiangdong faction and the Guanzhong faction always had different political opinions, no one dared to say anything when the emperor mentioned such a big project.

Yang Guang looked at it and said:"I have even thought of the name of the palace. , the one in Bingzhou is called Fenyang Palace, and the one in Youzhou is called Linshuo Palace. What do you think, dear ladies?"

Several ministers were unwilling from the bottom of their hearts, and for fear of offending Emperor Sui Yang, no one dared to speak up.

Emperor Sui Yang first said to Zhang Heng:"Ai Qing is my best friend since childhood. If you have anything to say, you can just say it."

Zhang Heng thought to himself that when the Qishan Renshou Palace and the Eastern Capital were built in Luoyang, the imperial court recruited strong men, but it was unknown how many people were killed and how much people's power was damaged. Now that two more palaces are being built, it is a waste of people and money, so he remonstrated:"There has been a lot of labor over the years. , the people were exhausted and begged Your Majesty to suspend the project and cultivate their livelihood."

Yang Guang originally thought he could get support from his close ministers, but he didn't expect to be remonstrated again. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty changed his face. He thought that Zhang Heng has always been loyal and obedient. He has never contradicted him for many years. Today, he dared to violate the holy will. He was very unhappy. , said:"Zhang Heng! Are you teaching me a lesson?"

"Every word of what I say is true."

"Humph, please step back."Emperor Sui Yang was furious, ignored him, and walked away.

Zhang Heng was disheartened for a moment and stayed aside. Several ministers saw that Emperor Sui Yang was unhappy, and no one dared to follow him. By then, Yu Wenshu was thinking quickly. Seeing Emperor Sui Yang's thoughts, he followed out of Chongwen Pavilion and said from behind:"Master Zhang does not understand the holy will and is really confused.

Yang Guang said angrily:"Zhang Heng thinks he can make suggestions and let me dominate the world. He is so arrogant and ignorant!" Immediately pass the decree and demote Zhang Heng to the post of Yulin Prefect. I don't want to see him."

"Oh...obey. Yu Wenshu paused for a moment and then said:"Wei Chen is willing to recommend someone to take charge of the construction of Fenyang Palace." Yang

Guang suddenly stopped, turned around and asked Yuwen Shu:"Who does Yuwen Aiqing recommend?""

Yu Wenshu saw through what Yang Su had done back then and knew that Yang Guang liked to make great achievements and build palaces and gardens, so he followed the trend and said:"Wei Chen is willing to let Quan Ziyu Wenji and go to Fenyang to preside over the expansion of the palace."

"Um?"Yang Guang hesitated, thought about it again, and said:"I heard that Yu Wenjie likes running dogs, eagles and dogs. You can't be nepotistic when it comes to building a palace."

Yu Wen said:"Your Majesty, please rest assured. The veteran has been trained and reprimanded for a long time, and he has made great progress. Only then can I dare to recommend him boldly. Emperor

Yang of the Sui Dynasty nodded and said:"Okay, I will give Huaji a chance to make contributions, but I will only entrust the addition of Fenyang Palace to Huaji. Linshuo Palace will still be in charge of Yu Wenkai." You tell Huaji not to let down my good intentions"

"I obey the order."Yuwenshu received the decree and thanked him profusely, so he immediately went to make arrangements. This is the truth: the king's ambition is naive, he misunderstood the slander and misappointed people.

My father was an official and a good man, but he ended up being tyrannical and owes the emperor's favor.

Yuwenshu hurried back to At the house, the eldest son Yu Wenhuaji was summoned and told the emperor's arrangements.

Unexpectedly, Yu Wenhuaji had a sad face and muttered:"My child is following the emperor to play around, enjoying the scenery along the way, and living a happy life. How can my father demote me to Fenyang?" , supervising the construction of the palace, this job is too hard.

Yu Wen said:"My son is very confused. How did the Yang Su family start up in those days? They built Renshou Palace, built the Eastern Capital, dug canals, and carried out large-scale projects. They have outstanding political achievements." The expansion of Fenyang Palace this time is to expand your own political achievements. The more you work, the happier the emperor will be, the greater your political achievements will be, and the greater your official salary will be in the future. Only then did Yu

Wenhua come to his senses, and Yu Wenshu said again:"As long as you have high-ranking officials, aren't you inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people?""

Hua Ji said with great joy:"Thanks to my father's reminder, the boy worked hard and made a great noise. This was political achievement and he pleased the emperor."

"This is the way to be an official."Yu Wenshu said happily. This leads to the following:

The traitor has no talent and no virtue, and the care of the country is more wasteful.

The natives in the pass sighed in vain, and only saw the palace singing drunkenly.
