The father and son sat down, and Yang Xuan sighed and said, "Yuanqing, if you have anything, you can talk to me and make it open and honest. After all, we are father and son. If you have anything to do, you can't solve it through negotiation. It's so heartbreaking!"

"Will my father accept my opinion? I asked my father to disband the private army and restore the three thousand county soldiers. Will my father agree?"

Yang Xuangan was speechless for a while. He stood up, took out the iron box from the secret cabinet, opened the iron box and handed the remains left by his father Yang Su to Yang Yuanqing, "This is the remains left by your grandfather, you can take a look first."

Yang Yuanqing opened the letter and read it. It turned out that Gao Huang was right. As early as his grandfather's time, the Yang family had the intention of being unjust.

Yang Xuangan said slowly: "You are the grandson that grandfather values ​​the most, and even surpasses the eldest grandson. He told me that you are the hope of the Yang family. Since that is the case, you should not let your grandfather down, and let the Yang family see hope."

Yang Yuanqing smiled faintly, "My name is no longer there in the Yang Family Temple, what does the Yang Family have to do with me?"

"No! I used to be cowardly for my father and I felt wronged. For my father, I would ask you to go back to the Yang family and put your name in the ranks of legitimate sons. You are the pillar of the Yang family. Everyone in the Yang family admits this, Yuan Qing, come back!"

Yang Xuangan stared at Yang Yuanqing with bright eyes. He longed for Yang Yuanqing to nod and agree. He needed Yang Yuanqing's support very much.

Yang Yuanqing still shook his head gently, "My grandfather is Yang Su, Duke of Chu, and my father is Yang Xuangan, the prefect of Dongping County. I should not nominate, but that's all."

Yang Xuangan's heart suddenly fell into the abyss of disappointment. He didn't expect that Yang Yuanqing's heart was so cold and hard.

Yang Xuangan was both annoyed, but helpless. After a while, he could only sigh and said, "Okay! Let's not talk about this matter for now, let's talk about Yuwen Shu. Do you think Yuwen Shu will tell the saint about this matter?"

“I don’t think so.”

"Why?"

Yang Yuanqing smiled, "The reason is very simple. My father recruited more county soldiers but was just a violation of regulations. The Ministry of War also had a responsibility, at most it was a small punishment. This was not in line with his interests of Yuwen Shu. Yuwen Shu was looking forward to his father's rebellion, so he would never tell the saint about this. On the contrary, he would try every means to conceal the matter to promote his father's rebellion."

"Why did Yuwen Shu want me to rebel?" Yang Xuangan asked in confusion.

Yang Yuanqing sighed softly. This was the topic he was going to talk to Yang Xuangan today. After going around in a big circle, he finally returned to the conversation point.

"Does my father know that how many senior officials in the Sui Dynasty have ambition to rebel?"

Yang Xuangan was a little confused. Yang Yuanqing's question was unable to answer, and he knew nothing.

"You said!" Yang Xuangan had to let go of his pride and humbly asked his son for advice. He knew that Yang Yuanqing had a better chance of getting in touch with the secrets of the court than he did.

"I will count it to my father one by one, Hongnong Yang family, Guanlong Yuan family, Guanlong Dugu family, Guanlong Yuwen family, and Jiangnan Xiao family."

"Wait a minute!"

Yang Xuangan was a little scared when he heard this and hurriedly said, "You want to be more specific."

"Okay! One father, one Yuanshou, one Dugu Zhen, one Yuwen Shu, and the Xiao family descended from the Liang Dynasty, among which the Dugu family supported Li Yuan's rebellion."

"Do you have any evidence?"

Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "I have no evidence."

Yang Xuangan pondered silently. He thought Yuan Qing was a little alarmist. How could it be? But he couldn't say it clearly that Yang Yuanqing was intimidating himself.

"What about the holy attitude?"

Yang Yuanqing smiled, "The Holy Is Drawing the Bow."

"Take the bow?"

Yang Xuangan asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"

"Yanshan is the bow back, Liaodong is the bow string, and hundreds of thousands of troops are bows and arrows, but he is not aiming at Goryeo, but the heartland of the Central Plains. He is waiting for the first person to rebel. Does my father understand what I mean?"

Yang Yuanqing left, and Yang Xuangan walked step by step in the room with his hands behind his back. Although he felt that Yuan Qing was a bit alarmist, Yuan Qing's theory of bow and arrow touched Yang Xuangan's heart. If it was true as Yuan Qing said, then he really could not act rashly.

At this time, Yang Xuan thought of Hu Sizheng. He felt it was necessary to have a good talk with Hu Sizheng and listen to Hu Sizheng's opinions.

Yang Xuangan was wearing a coat. He was about to go out, but his pace slowed down. He pondered for a while and felt that he would wait a moment. In a few days, he would take a look at the situation before talking about it.

Yuwen Shu's mansion, Yuwen Zhiji was naked and knelt in the room. His brother Yuwen Wenhe was next to him whip his back with a whip. With a whip, there was a blood mark. Yuwen Zhiji lowered his head, bit his lips tightly and said nothing, but his back was covered with blood marks.

Yuwen Shu sat behind the table, staring coldly at the eldest son whipped the second son. There was no sympathy in his eyes, but just burning anger. He knew in his heart that if he didn't teach the second son a lesson this time, he would be killed by his recklessness in the future.

Yu Wenji took the last whip and bowed and said, "Father, thirty whips have been whipped!"

Yuwen Shu asked Yuwen Zhiji coldly, "You said! What did these thirty whips make you remember?"

Yuwen Zhiji resisted the pain and replied: "The child shouldn't have fought with Li Hun's family in public, so he was caught by the sage. The child will never dare to make trouble again."

"What else?"

Yuwen Zhiji bit her lip and said, "There will be nothing else."

Yuwen Shu slapped the table heavily and shouted loudly: "Twist twenty more whips!"

Yu Wenhua and his helplessness had to whip twenty more times. Yu Wenshu glared at his son, "What else?"

Yuwen Zhiji fell to the ground and burst into tears, "I can't provoke Yang Yuanqing anymore!"

Yuwen Shu's face improved slightly, and she waved her hand and said, "Go down to heal yourself."

Yu Wenji hurriedly found a few people, and everyone was in a hurry and carried Yu Wen Zhiji down on a stretcher. The room became quiet, leaving only Yu Wenshu and his son.

"Where do you understand? How much do you understand?" Yu Wen Shu's spearhead was aimed at his eldest son Yu Wenhua and.

Yu Wenji hurriedly said: "The child thought that at this critical moment, he must be careful and not have any accidents. For example, Zhihe made trouble in Fengcheng City today and happened to be seen by Sheng. This will affect his father's status and will not be able to be lost."

Yuwen Shu nodded and answered well. The eldest son had made some progress. Yuwen and the observation of words and opinions were secretly happy when he saw his father's face calm and said, "As for Yang Yuanqing, our Yuwen family is considering big things now, so don't care about those little grudges for the time being."

He thought he was right, but Yuwen Shu's face sank again, "No, Yang Yuanqing's revenge is not a small grudge, but a great revenge that I, Yuwen Shu, must avenge."

Yuwen Shu looked at his son and said, "You have to remember that now I want him to die, and the whole family is killed, so I asked Zhiji not to provoke him, so as not to be harmed by him."

"But my father, Yang Yuanqing, Shengjuan Zhenglong, is probably not that easy to get him convicted and executed."

Yuwen Shu sneered, "Maybe he won't, but he has a father who wants to rebel. If Yang Xuangan rebels, he, Yang Yuanqing, will not be able to escape this disaster. I am looking forward to the arrival of this day."

Yuwen Shu smiled proudly, her face becoming particularly ferocious.

‘Bang! Bang!’ With the sound of firecrackers, the New Year of Daye’s nine-year history finally arrived.

On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, two fires were lit in front of Yang Yuanqing's mansion. Several personal soldiers threw bamboo tubes into the fire. After a moment, the bamboo tube exploded and made a loud "bang!" sound, expelling the evil spirits of the old year and welcoming the arrival of the new year.

At this time, a ox cart drove from a distance, full of dust. The driver of the ox cart was about fifty years old, wearing a green robe. A woman in her forties sat in the ox cart, and a young couple, both of whom were about sixteen or seventeen years old.

"Dalang, is this here?" asked the middle-aged woman.

The man looked up at the sign of the mansion, "The Duke of Fengguo Mansion", and nodded, "It should be here."

"Dalang, will Yuanqing refuse to recognize us?" the woman asked again with some concern.

"Won't!"

Although the man smiled and said no, his eyes were indeed a little nervous. He stopped the ox cart, jumped out of the car, and bowed to several personal soldiers and said, "Are you Yang Yuanqing's subordinates?"

When several soldiers heard that he actually called the general's name, they couldn't help but look at him. A personal soldier asked, "Who are you?"

The man smiled and bowed, "I'm the next surname Li, and I'm the uncle of General Manager Yang, who comes from the south."

When he heard that it was the general's uncle, the soldiers did not dare to neglect them, so they immediately ran into the mansion to report. After a moment, Yang Yuanqing quickly came out.

"Uncle, why are you here?"

Yang Yuanqing greeted his uncle, and he was really surprised. At this time, he saw his aunt Zhou again. He hurriedly greeted him, "Auntie!"

Zhou smiled and said, "The first day of the Lunar New Year is really causing you trouble."

"I'm not happy yet why my aunt said such words."

At this time, Pei Minqiu and Chuchen also came out and greeted their uncle and aunt together.

Li Dalang said to the young man: "Fu'er, why don't you give me a greeting to my cousin!"

The young man hurriedly bowed and said, "Li Fu, see your cousin! See your two cousin sisters-in-law!"

Yang Yuanqing thought that when he saw him that year, he was still a lucky child. He didn't expect that he would grow up so old and seemed to have married a wife. Yang Yuanqing nodded with a smile and gave Pei Minqiu and Chuchen a look. The two of them quickly invited their aunt and sister-in-law to the inner palace.

Yang Yuanqing suddenly remembered his uncle's eldest son Li Gui, and asked, "Uncle, where is the eldest cousin?"

Li Dalang smiled bitterly, "It's a long story, hey! We are really desperate and can only come and defect to you."

Yang Yuanqing remembered that his uncle was also named county magistrate. What was going on? He was puzzled and hurriedly called out: "Uncle went to the mansion first, let's talk about it. When I come to my place, I will get home."

In the room, Li Dalang took a sip of hot tea and then sighed, "The south is going to be in chaos."

Yang Yuanqing frowned and said, "Don't be anxious, please speak slowly."

"Hey! It's all my fault that I shouldn't have agreed to go to Jingzhou to study. He went to Jingzhou to study for two years. More than a month ago, Gui'er suddenly went home and asked me to attend the Nanhua Society. I had to be weird. After asking in detail, I found out that it was the Restoration Congress organized by Xiao Xian, a descendant of the Liang Dynasty. Gui'er joined two years ago. He said there were more than 100,000 congregations, and I felt that it was a major issue, so I reported it to the county magistrate. Unexpectedly, the county magistrate actually said that I wanted to rebel and arrested me. Thanks to a yamen runner who secretly released me at night, I realized that the county magistrate also participated in the Nanhua Society. The county magistrate was also. They were afraid that I would report it, so they arrested me. I had to escape from Jingshan County with my wife and children overnight, and did not dare to stay and fled all the way to Beijing."

Yang Yuanqing nodded. It turned out to be Xiao Xian, who had a size of more than 100,000 people. Once Nanhua would uprising, Yang Guang's bottom line would be broken.

Li Dalang asked carefully again: "Yuanqing, I want to report them to the court, do you think it's okay?"

"inappropriate!"

Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "I don't know anything about it. The sage is very taboo now. He will kill anyone who complains. Even General Li Jing was killed. Don't worry about this matter anymore."

Li Dalang was so scared that his whole body trembled and did not dare to say more. Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly again, "My uncle is here just right. Today I want to sacrifice to my mother, so my uncle will sacrifice to me!"
