Chapter 30: The Depressed Current

Yang Guang's inspection team has arrived in Mayi County and will arrive at the Fenyang Palace construction site in two days. In the evening of that day, Haodang's driving team was camping beside the road. Uploaded by netizens ==

The soldiers were busy camping and tents appeared in the wilderness. The originally calm roadside became extremely lively. At this time, several fast horses rushed from the south, and immediately there were several low-quality people wearing low-quality products.

The officials who were in charge ran to the city of **. A eunuch had already greeted him and complained to the leader: "Envoy Liu, why did you come now? The Emperor asked yesterday."

"The road is too far, we have tried our best."

The head official gave the yellow silk cloth bag on his back to the eunuch, stuffed another piece of silver, and whispered: "If the emperor asks, please say a few good words for us."

"I understand!" The eunuch ran into ** City with a yellow silk bag.

In the imperial study, Yang Guang was discussing the problem of severe drought in Henan with several important officials. He had received urgent memorials from the prefects of several counties, requesting to open warehouses and release grain to provide relief to the victims. The serious disaster made Yang Guang very worried.

Niu Hong replied: "Your Majesty, I suggest that all localities put charity warehouses first to ensure that people starve to death do not occur, and then slowly provide disaster relief on a monthly basis, so that the victims can be left in their hometown and will not flood into the capital in large quantities."

Pei Yun has been an official in the local area for a long time and has a deep understanding of the local situation. He also came forward and said: "Your Majesty, opening a warehouse and releasing grain will inevitably lead to corruption. I agree with Niu Shangshu's opinion, and putting a charity warehouse first, and not an official warehouse.

It is easy to release grain. Before the grain is released, the inspectors in Silitai must be present to supervise local disaster relief."

Yang Guang nodded, "The suggestions of both my dear friends are very pertinent. I can consider them. In addition, I want to send a respected old minister to inspect the disaster area in Henan to comfort the victims for me. Who do you think is more suitable?"

Pei Ju and Pei Yun quickly changed their eyes. This was an opportunity. Pei Ju came forward and said, "Your Majesty, former prime minister Su Wei has visited the local area many times to comfort the victims, supervise the officials' affairs, respected and experienced, and is now dismissed at home.

, but I always want to serve His Majesty. I recommend him as the Henan Pacifier to inspect the disaster area for His Majesty.”

Su Wei is an alliance between the Pei brothers in the court. Su Wei was dismissed, causing the Pei brothers to lose a great help. They have been waiting for the opportunity to speak for Su Wei and let him get up again. This disaster happened to be an opportunity.

In fact, Yang Guang dismissed Su Wei more because of his attitude of killing Gao Yang. He was also planning to use him in time. Since Pei Ju recommended Su Wei as the Henan Pacifier, Yang Guang would follow the flow and do this favor.

"Okay! I agree to this plan and appoint Su Wei as Henan Pacifier and go to the disaster area to inspect the situation immediately."

Yang Guang walked a few steps behind his back. At this time, he was more concerned about the situation in the capital. He had received an emergency report from the capital yesterday. The severe saoluan occurred in Fengdu, and the casualties were severe, which made his heart aroused.

"Dear friends, there has been serious saoluan in the capital. Yesterday, I issued a military order to martial law and put out 500,000 stones of grain to stabilize the price of grain. However, there are too many refugees in the capital. How to resettle these refugees? I have a headache. I want to love you all.

Please discuss it."

At this time, Pei Ju stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think that resettlement of disaster victims is not only the responsibility of the government, but also the wealthy people in the people also have the responsibility to share the worries of the government. I know that there are many wealthy families in the capital, and most of them have surplus food. Your Majesty can go down one by one.

The order is to order wealthy households to participate in the relief of porridge. Each household will provide at least three disasters and send a censor to supervise it. In addition, the relief porridge can be placed outside the city to guide the refugees out of the city and set up tents outside the city for them to live in.

It can protect the city from being safe."

Pei Ju can be said to have understood Yang Guang's thoughts. He knew that Yang Guang was actually reluctant to open Hanjia Cang to release grain, so he discussed with them. Pei Ju agreed with him and proposed a plan to participate in disaster relief by wealthy families.

This plan really made Yang Guanglong very happy. He said happily: "Pei Aiqing's words are in line with my wishes. If one side is in trouble, how can you rely on the government as you support them? This plan is very good, I have adopted it."

At this moment, an eunuch said in the men's mouth: "Your Majesty, the memorial of Censor Wei has arrived."

Yang Guang nodded and said to the ministers: "Dear friends, all the suggestions are very good. You can write memorials separately, more detailed and more comprehensive. After I review them, you can execute them. Everyone should hurry up as soon as possible!"

All the ministers bowed and retreated one after another. A eunuch presented the memorial of the censor Wei Deyu.

This time, Yang Guang's northern tour gave the important responsibility of guarding the capital to King Yang Qing, and in fact he was tested to a certain extent. Yang Guang also secretly ordered the censor Wei Deyu to observe Yang Qing, and wrote memorials to him regularly.

Report.

So far, Yang Hing's performance has disappointed Yang Guang. He forcibly robbed civilians, invaded civilian real estate, and indulged his subordinates to extort. He is notorious and does not have the demeanor that a prince should have. Especially this time the capital broke out, and more

This made Yang Guang extremely disappointed.

Yang Guang opened Wei Deyu's memorial and read it in detail. Wei Deyu mainly gave a detailed description of the saoluan in Fengdu City. The memorial was very clear. The reason for saoluan was that it was not timely prevention and poor disaster relief. 300,000 refugees

At the beginning of entering Beijing, Jingzhao Prefecture ignored the matter and let it go. There was no resettlement measure. After the number of refugees increased, the army was not sent to control it, and there were no disaster relief measures, which led to the refugees being unable to survive, and finally a major outbreak occurred.

A large-scale grain grabbing incident occurred.

Although Wei Deyu did not directly point out that Yang Hing should bear the responsibility, the meaning was already obvious. Yang Hing guarded the capital, and Jingzhao Yin was also the one who was responsible. Especially Wei Deyu wrote at the end that the day before the Fengdu tragedy broke out,

Yang Qing took twenty-four concubines to visit Mount Mang, but did not return that night, which was undoubtedly the last straw that overwhelmed Yang Qing.

Yang Guang sighed and put down the memorial. If what Yang Hung did before was disappointed, then the Fengdu incident made Yang Guang despair with his son. Can such a person be the third generation of Sui Dynasty?

Yang Guang walked out of the imperial study room with his hands behind his back and unknowingly came to the next study room, where tens of thousands of books and pictures were stored.

Walking into the room, he saw his eldest grandson Yang Neng at his desk, writing with all his heart, without finding his grandfather behind him, and a thick stack of books beside his desk, which he had read.

Books, Yang Guang looked at his grandson's tender back lovingly, and remembered his eldest son who had passed away for almost two years. The corners of his eyes couldn't help but feel a little wet.

Yang Guang did not disturb Changsun, but quietly retreated and returned to the imperial study room. He stood in front of the window and pondered for a long time. Finally, he made up his mind and turned around and whispered: "Transfer my order and order Yang Yuanqing to see me!"

It has been two days since Yang Yuanqing returned from Jinyang Palace. Although he did not catch the evidence that King Si of Qi took the military armor of Jinyang Palace, he already understood that King Qi was secretly training the Si army. He used to train the dead soldiers. Now

It has been upgraded from a dead soldier to a si army.

Training the Si army has been an extremely dangerous move since ancient times. No emperor would tolerate his son training the Si army. This situation usually occurs in the late years of the emperor.

But Yang Guang is only forty years old this year. If he only considers his life span, he can be the emperor for at least twenty years. When Yang Ming trained the Si army in his father's prime, he was either too stupid to live or

He already has ambitions.

No matter from that point, Yang Yuanqing knew that Yang Ming's last moment was about to come, and the plan was that he could do evil and he could not survive. He did not lay bricks for the time being, and a large amount of wood and stone began to be transported to the mountains one after another.

It is also a huge project. More than 200,000 people stretched for ten miles. They used rolling wood, prying and ropes to pull, shouting horns, and transporting huge rocks weighing ten thousand pounds to the mountain bit by bit.

Li Yuan also returned to the construction site of Fenyang Palace, and the Yuan Shangying incident gradually subsided. Although Li Yuan wrote a letter to Yuanshou, explaining in detail the causes and consequences of Yuan Shangying being killed, he also understood in his heart, regardless of him.

No matter how you explain it, there will be cracks between him and Yuanshou, and it cannot be compensated.

This result made Li Yuan quite depressed and helpless, but through this incident, he had personally experienced Yang Yuanqing's decisiveness and ruthlessness.

Although Li Yuan was quite dissatisfied with Yang Yuanqing, he did not express his gratitude on his face and tried his best to convince himself not to take this matter to heart. After all, after Yang Yuanqing killed Yuan Shangying, the treatment of civilians greatly improved. So far

It has been nearly half a month since the civilians have only died more than a dozen people, which has never happened in various projects of the Sui Dynasty, and it has also made Li Yuan feel a little bit about Yang Yuanqing.

"General Yang, if you follow this progress, I think Fenyang Palace can be completed in at most two and a half months."

Li Yuan and Yang Yuanqing walked slowly on the construction site side by side. Yang Yuanqing smiled and said, "Actually, these civilians also hope to finish the repairs earlier and go home earlier. As long as they give them a full meal, they will naturally work hard.

There is no need for so many supervisors."

Li Yuan sighed, "That's because General Yang is not greedy for this money, but Yuan Shangying finally got this feasible. How can they not be greedy? Everyone understands the truth, but if you really do it, you won't be so replies.

After all, one must make money by deducting food, and secondly, it must make money by ransom. In order to get ransom, the army tried to torture these civilians and torture them to death. They sold land and houses at home to redeem their relatives, or

They tortured to death and waited for their families to use money to redeem the body. If these civilians were allowed to live well, how could the army get rich? So at least 50% of the people died of death at one time. This is the reason. Is it really exhausted and sick?

many."

Yang Yuanqing nodded. He only now understood the dark side of it. No wonder so many people died in one project. He always felt a little strange. Yang Guang did not care about the people's strength, but the black dong that really devoured the people's husband was the army.

At this moment, a soldier rushed from behind, "General Yang!"

Yang Yuanqing stopped the horse and turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Someone is looking for him in the camp, and he comes from the capital, saying that he is General Yang's old man."
