[Comprehensive] The winner of life

When Empress Xiao said that three years ago, everyone thought it was an idiot's dream, but now everyone is too shocked to speak.

I don't know why, and I am still at a loss. Empress Xiao has done nothing in the past three years, except sending merchants to sell things to Goguryeo, and even selling grain.When everyone knew this at the time, they all thought that Empress Xiao was stupid. Did she sell food to Goguryeo to raise soldiers so that they could harass me in the Sui Dynasty?

However, all the food was sold, and as a result, there were frequent civil upheavals in Goguryeo. Let’s find out the reason—the upper class of Goguryeo is luxurious, and the oppressed people can’t live on, let alone farming. .

The ministers were in a state of confusion.

Lin Sheng was very calm about this, it was just an economic aggression, which also benefited from the geographical location of Goguryeo and the composition of the domestic land, the arrogant and inferior character of the upper class in Goguryeo, and the ability of the merchants of the Great Sui Dynasty.

Although Lin Sheng said so, he turned around and let the army prepare, and appointed Yuwen Chengdu as the coach.Lin Sheng beckoned Yu Wencheng to come forward, whispered a few words in his ear, reached out and patted his shoulder, "Success will come soon."

Pei Ju's martial arts were superb, Lin Sheng's voice was soft, but it still couldn't deceive his ears.Hearing Lin Sheng's words, Pei Ju's eyebrows twitched. What does it mean "just keep a small one", and what does it mean "don't forget to put back all the private houses of the Goguryeo royal family".

Empress Xiao is the most independent woman Pei Ju has ever seen.But such a woman crushed Goguryeo, which had plagued the Sui Dynasty for decades, almost effortlessly.

Lin Sheng noticed Pei Ju's gaze keenly, and she frowned subconsciously. In the past two years, Mr. Pei seems to have shifted his focus to the court.This idea hovered in Lin Sheng's mind for a while, but she suppressed it. She smiled and said to the ministers: "I think we can discuss how to govern Liaodong County now."

Lin Sheng's words were so firm that everyone subconsciously didn't think there was any problem.

In the sixth year of the great cause, the Goguryeo civil uprising, ten rooms and nine empties in the upper floors, King Yingyang asked for help from the Great Sui Dynasty, and the 30 troops of the Great Sui Dynasty marched directly across the border and directly attacked the city of Pyongyang.Even so, the Sui army was still one step late, the palace had already been breached, King Yingyang was defeated and committed suicide, and the concubines and children of the harem followed King Yingyang one after another. It was really tragic.

Only a five-year-old little prince was left in the Goguryeo royal family. The little prince returned to the Sui Dynasty. Emperor Yang Guang took pity on him and made him the Duke of Anle, living in Chang'an.So far, Goguryeo has survived in name only.Another half a year after the Goguryeo civil uprising was suppressed, it was renamed Liaodong County and completely merged into the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty.

When Yuwen returned to Chang'an with the vanguard army in Chengdu, Prince Yang Zhao greeted him personally.

Yang Zhao quietly asked Yuwen Chengdu: "Have you gained a lot?"

The corners of Yu Wencheng's mouth twitched, but facing Yang Zhaoliang's bright eyes, he replied respectfully: "Even King Yingyang's underground palace was not spared." Unexpectedly, King Yingyang had a lot of private possessions. You must know the other princes of Goguryeo. Nobles, the merchants of the Great Sui Dynasty almost sucked their blood.

"The queen mother must be very happy to know that Chengdu is doing well!" Yang Zhao said, Yuwen Chengdu's little awkwardness is gone. Before leaving, his father Yu Wenhuaji had repeatedly asked him to behave well. The queen empress will appoint him as the coach, just to add merit to him.However, it seems that he has not been of much use. Even the underground palace of King Yingyang has been found out by those people. The empress is really exhausted.

The people Yuwen Chengdu talked about were naturally spies who sneaked into Goguryeo as the merchants entered the Great Sui Dynasty, and they were basically relatives of the merchants.Seeking wealth and insurance is most vividly expressed among the merchants this time.

Of course, their bet paid off.

Lin Sheng bestowed their family backgrounds—the imperial examination system had already been perfected at this time, and a literary and military examination had already been held in Daye four years—and Emperor Yang Guang personally bestowed the pen and ink.In addition, Lin Sheng publicly called their relatives who contributed to the defeat of Goguryeo as the pillars of the country and awarded them corresponding official positions.

Merchants have money, and it is natural to seek fame. This move all made them happy and encouraged them to ask for funds to build a palace for the saint to express their gratitude for the saint's kindness.

Unexpectedly, Empress Xiao, who has never liked luxury, agreed, "The sage used to like Luoyang very much. He wanted to move his capital to Luoyang. At that time, he was planning to build the Grand Canal. In desperation, the sage could only suppress his longing. Now he just happens to be called a sage." I have fulfilled my wish." He also promised that when the palace is completed, a stone tablet will be erected in the palace to remember their love for the king, and if they are willing to donate money and materials to the migrant workers who built the Grand Canal, they will be in the wharf port or It's not a problem if their names are engraved on the stone bridge.

This time, it might become famous in history, not to mention the grateful merchants, even the ministers who are not short of money are willing to pay out.

Not only these businessmen, but even businessmen from other parts of the country will go crazy. Anyway, it's just three words: donate, donate!

The palace in Luoyang is even more magnificent and beautiful, and it took half a year to complete.

At this time, the Yongji Canal was dug to connect Zhuo County, and the first half of the Grand Canal was completed with the efforts of all parties.

Emperor Yang Guang took Empress Xiao, Prince Yang Zhao and other courtiers to Luoyang for the first time.From Chang'an to the port of the Grand Canal, there is a section of official road built with cement. It is not the same as the old official road. Nowadays, the use of cement is gradually being promoted to the whole country. I believe that businessmen will not miss this good opportunity to build roads and become famous. of.

After boarding the dragon boat, all the way down to Luoyang.

The first trip to Luoyang was not smooth, and a group of four people were assassinated on the way.

"Escort!"

The empress and the crown prince were escorted into the dragon boat. Yu Wenhuaji, Yuwen Chengdu and others had already fought against one man and three women who came.

Pei Ju recognized the other party as soon as he showed up. The leader was Goguryeo's martial arts master Fu Cailin, who was famous all over the world for his original "Yi Swordsmanship". The other three women should be his apprentices Fu Junxie, Fu Junyu and Fu Junqiang.

Pei Ju glanced at Empress Xiao in a strange way, and found that the other party didn't seem to be worried at all. Maybe she was a girl who was in court and didn't know what status Fu Cailin was in the world?

Soon, Pei Ju found out that he was wrong again. Just as Yu Huahua and the others were retreating steadily, a figure that Pei Ju would never be mistaken for suddenly appeared in the battle situation—Ning Daoqi, a loose man!Why did Ning Daoqi appear here?Does it have something to do with Empress Xiao?

Ning Daoqi and Fu Cailin fought equally, but Fu Cailin's three female apprentices were not so lucky, and they were killed by the Sui army one after another.

Lin Sheng didn't care about the unfairness of many against one. Even though Ning Daoqi, who was as famous as Fu Cailin, joined the battle, Lin Sheng still ordered Yu Wenhua and other great masters to fight, and he was bound to kill Fu Cailin, the martial arts master of Goguryeo.

In the Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, it was this Fu Cailin who led the rebels to resist the invasion of the Sui army many times, and thus became the national hero of Goguryeo.Lin Sheng didn't think of him until later, so people paid special attention to him. Cutting grass must be eradicated. Lin Sheng is not stupid enough to leave behind a martial arts master in a country that she has flattened.

Alas, this is also the unfairness of the martial arts world.Just a martial arts master casually will be worth as many people, ha ha.

No matter how awesome Fu Cailin was, he couldn't compare to Ning Daoqi, who was as famous as him, and thousands of Sui soldiers. In the end, he was severely injured by Yu Wenhuaji, and Yu Wencheng was forced to use gold-plated phoenix wings to kill him in front of everyone. stabbed to death.

"What did you do?" Ning Daoqi asked Yu Wencheng in turn.

Yu Wencheng was not afraid of him, so he replied as a matter of course: "To prevent future troubles, what else? Should he wait until he recovers from his injuries before he comes to assassinate the empress and the prince?"

Yu Wencheng had an expression of "I'm not stupid", but it made Ning Daoqi choke enough, but since everyone was dead, Ning Daoqi stopped making second guesses, and directly sent a voice message to Dragon Boat: "Empress Xiao, Pindao agrees!" Your work has been done, but don't forget what you promised to Pindao." Then he left very elegantly.

Pei Ju couldn't bear to ask Lin Sheng any longer: "What did you promise him?"

"It's all about prospering Taoism and destroying Buddha." Lin Sheng's answer made Pei Ju's eyebrows twitch. Maybe Pei Ju would believe his words if he put it on the Taoist disciples beside him.But Ning Daoqi, he is a Taoist traitor at all, a strange flower who deviates from the orthodoxy, would he be willing to be driven by Empress Xiao for the sake of Taoism?Of course Pei Ju didn't believe it, but he just blurted out and questioned Empress Xiao, which was already beyond the norm, so it's hard to say anything now.

When the dragon boat arrived in Luoyang, the whole world knew that Fu Cailin, one of the three great masters of martial arts, "Master Yijian" had tried to assassinate the emperor but failed and was beheaded by the Sui army.How many people took a deep breath, and thinking of Goguryeo, which was renamed Liaodong County not long ago, it seems that it is not difficult to understand Fu Cailin's approach.

But in the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty, Fu Cailin was directly branded as a bandit and a rebellious party that everyone can punish. The army's thousands of horses can only be trampled into meat.

The imperial court's prestige among the people in the rivers and lakes soared due to this incident.

In this incident, Ning Daoqi was not mentioned at all, but Yu Wencheng, who stabbed Fu Cailin to death neatly in the end, gave a strong sense of presence.

Crown Prince Yang Zhao envied Yuwen Chengdu, who was strong in martial arts, he wanted to learn martial arts, but he was a little chubby, and he was a little short of breath after walking a lot, let alone learning martial arts.Seeing that Lin Sheng praised Yuwen Chengdu, Yang Zhao was a bit unwilling to admit defeat and wanted to get Yuwen Chengdu's phoenix-winged gilt tang.

Yang Zhao was depressed at the time, usually seeing Yuwen Chengdu holding a gold-plated phoenix wing dancing Feng Shengshui, why is it so heavy?

Yu Wencheng explained with a smile: "This boring weighs 320 catties. It's normal that His Highness can't lift it."

Yang Zhao: "..." The most troublesome person.
