In the fourth year of Renshou in the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian died.

Crown Prince Yang Guang succeeded to the throne and was the second emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty.

In later generations, Yang Guang had a very famous title: Emperor Yang of Sui!

At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, Yang Guang chose the most prominent year name for himself throughout history: Daye!

He wants to establish a grand and vigorous cause to prove to the people of the world and his father Yang Jian that he did not choose the wrong person!

With Yang Guang's ascension to the throne, many people's fate also came to an end.

The first thing Yang Guang did after he ascended the throne was to kill the former crown prince Yang Yong. Although Yang Yong had been abolished, Yang Yong had been the crown prince for many years after all, and Yang Jian also abolished some of the people around the crown prince, but in the end he was still left with no killing.

Yang Guang also knew that he could not kill all those who were inclined to Yang Yong, so that his government would not be able to deal with it. In order to avoid future troubles, he directly executed Yang Yong.

When Yuwen Chengdu brought his soldiers to Yang Yong's mansion, Yang Yong looked at Yuwen Chengdu and smiled and said, "General Yuwen has finally come. Gu has been waiting for this day for a long time. After all, Amo grew up watching him. He is very clear about his personality. He will never tolerate the existence of me, a person who may threaten him. If he dies, it will be over. General Yuwen, bring a letter to Amo. I have no complaints when he kills me, but I hope he can save my son's life."

After saying that, he picked up the poisonous wine he had placed beside him, sighed lightly, raised his head and drank it, and soon he died of bleeding from his seven orifices.

Yuwen Chengdu looked at Yang Yong bleeding from his seven orifices, and his face also showed a hint of unbearance.

When Yang Guang learned that Yang Yong had committed suicide, he let out a long sigh and waved his hand to let Yuwen Chengdu go out, sitting on the dragon throne in a daze. As the eldest son, Yang Yong was quite caring for Yang Guang when he was young. He suddenly killed Yang Yong, and Yang Guang felt uncomfortable.

After a long time, Yang Guang murmured: "Brother, don't blame me. If you want to blame, you can only blame you for being born earlier than me. And you are too cowardly and not suitable to be the emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty. Only when the Great Sui Dynasty is handed over to me can it truly spread throughout the ages!"

With Yang Yong's execution, some of Yang Yong's confidants were also liquidated to varying degrees.

For example, Prime Minister Gao Feng was executed because he was Yang Yong's in-laws.

Yang Yong's sons, Yang Yan, Wang Changning, Yang Yu, Wang Pingyuan, Yang Yun, Yang Yun, Wang Anping, Yang Yi, Wang Xiangcheng, Yang Ke, Wang Gaoyang, Yang Gai, Wang Jian'an, Yang Shao, Wang Yingchuan, etc., were almost killed by Yang Guang and sent to his father and elder brother as a burial!

No, there is still one who survived.

Yang Yong's youngest son, Yang Xiaofan, survived.

Of course, in the eyes of the world, he is already dead.

Almost everyone thought he was dead, but Gu Xiao knew that Yang Xiaofan was still alive and was rescued by Pei Ju.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the future shadow assassin - Yang Xuyan!

...

Gu Xiao didn't care about Yang Yong's family's life or death at all, just because all this had nothing to do with him.

On this day, he received an invitation.

Yang Su’s invitation!

"Master, what did he ask me for?" Gu Xiao said in surprise.

Although they are masters and apprentices, over the years, since Gu Xiao has become a master, their relationship has become somewhat distant. Not to mention, during the period when he lived in Yang Su's mansion, Gu Xiao and Yang Su's sons were not very happy. The relationship between them has faded and they have not often interacted.

I suddenly posted a post today, and I’m afraid there is no good banquet!

He was puzzled, but Gu Xiao didn't even pretend to be arrogant to his master, so he agreed immediately.

At this time, Yang Su had replaced Gao Ying as the Minister of Shangshu Zuo Pushe, and truly became the leader of all officials of the Sui Dynasty. His family was crowded with people, and there were endless officials coming to visit him.

Today, in order to wait for Gu Xiao, everyone was blocked and waiting for Gu Xiao alone.

Although Yang Su said that he would not see guests today, there were still a large number of people standing at the door, waiting to see if there was a chance to be received by the Prime Minister of the Great Sui Dynasty.

When Gu Xiao came to the gate of the Duke of Yue's mansion, he saw dozens of people standing at Yang Su's door with gifts waiting for Yang Su's reception. He was also a little dissatisfied with Yang Su's greed.

Fortunately, Yang Su loves talent. As soon as he arrived at the door, Yang Su's housekeeper, Yang Sheng, personally led the horse for Gu Xiao and invited him in.

Among the officials waiting for Yang Su to meet outside Yang Su's Duke's Mansion, some of whom came from outside Daxing and did not know Gu Xiao felt extremely incredible about Yang Sheng's servitude. Yang Sheng was Yang Su's housekeeper, not to mention a small official of the sixth and seventh rank, even the fourth-rank governor of the state, some did not take it seriously. He just ran over to lead the horse for the man.

He hurriedly asked the local people around him: "Who is the one who went in just now? We are all waiting here. Why did that person go in as soon as he came? Butler Yang ran over to lead the horse himself!"

The man beside him looked at the questioning with contempt and said, "The place he came to the right Guanglu doctor, Yu Wentuo, the general of Xiaoguo Guard. He is known as the number one general of the Sui Dynasty. Not to mention that the butler Yang came over to lead the horse, it would be no wonder that even Duke Yue came out to greet him in person."

The person who asked was surprised and said, "It turned out to be General Yuwen, but General Yuwen is the emperor's confidant. Do you still need to curry favor with Duke Yue?"

When everyone around him heard the words of this person, they were a little far away from him with contempt, as if they would get close to him and get the rustic spirit on him.

When the person asked, he saw the expressions of the people around him, his face was also quite embarrassed.

The person who answered just now had already spoken. Now it was hard to get out of the way and said with a bad look: "Don't you know that General Yuwen is a disciple of Duke Yue, and Duke Yue has the kindness of knowing General Yuwen. General Yuwen is also a person who is kind and often comes to visit Duke Yue."

The person who asked the question nodded suddenly.

As soon as Yang Sheng arrived in the yard, Gu Xiao saw Yang Su walking far away. He smiled while walking, "Tuo'er is here, hurry up and talk to me in the hall."

Yang Su's personality can be said to be extremely arrogant. Among the civil and military officials of the Great Sui Dynasty, no one can look down on him except Gao Ying, who had already stopped the prefect and Han Qinhu, who had died.

Although he also admires Gu Xiao very much, Yang Su believes that Gu Xiao is his disciple and he promoted Gu Xiao with one hand. He also has a domineering attitude in front of Gu Xiao.

Seeing Yang Su coming over in person, Gu Xiao hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, clasped his fists and said, "Tuoer is a junior, and he was also a general under his master's command. How dare you let Master greet him personally?"

When Yang Su heard Gu Xiao’s words, he felt relieved and said to Gu Xiao with a smile: “Tuoer, although you were once a general under my husband’s command, your current official position is no longer under me. Even if I leave the house to greet him, it is not normal.”

Gu Xiao smiled slightly, filtered the sentence automatically, and said, "I dare not, I dare not take it."

Yang Su smiled slightly and said, "Haha, is Tuoer a pillar of talent? The civil and military officials in the court have their own conclusions with the people of the world. Tuoer doesn't have to be modest. Today, you and I are drinking, and it's a little bit deserted. There are several singers in my house, and I can barely see them. Why not just let them perform and let Tuoer review them?"

Gu Xiao smiled and said, "Tuoer is just a crude military man, but he knows nothing about singing and dancing. However, the singers in the master's house are naturally extremely outstanding. It is a pity for Tuoer to have such a good look, so it is a blessing to watch."
