Turbulent Times Chapter 100: Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty and the Changsun family

In order to avoid leaking his itinerary, Wang Junlin did not send anyone to inform Sun Wentao of Wufu Tea House in advance, until they arrived at the door of the shop, Sun Wentao, who was about to go out, suddenly saw Wang Junlin and his party. Said: "My lord, the villain didn't know you were coming, please forgive me for not going outside the city to meet the lord."

Wang Junlin waved his hand and said, "It's not your fault, I didn't inform you on purpose. Hurry up and arrange board and lodging!"

"Please also ask my lord to rest in the backyard, the villain will arrange it now." Sun Wentao heaved a sigh of relief.

Next, Sun Wentao personally took Wang Junlin and Yu Zimo to the backyard, and at the same time called the buddies in the tea house, and arranged everything in an orderly manner—first, the precious gifts brought by Wang Junlin Carefully moved in, and then arranged for people to take all the horses to the stables except the blood-maned horse, feed them with good feed, and finally called Zhan Peng and his guards to the place where they lived.

"The tea house is spacious, there are many places to live, and the food and accommodation conditions are very good. Knowing that the lord is coming, I have prepared it in advance, so I sent someone to the restaurant in front to bring you food and drinks. The braised venison is delicious, and there is also steamed sea bass." Sun Wentao, like Deng Yuzhuo, was originally a businessman, but Deng Yuzhuo was a local businessman in Yongzhou, and Sun Wentao was originally a businessman from the Central Plains. He happened to go to the Northwest to do business during the war last year. It turned out to be unlucky, he was robbed by the Tuyuhun people, and later the Tuyuhun people were defeated and fled to Qinghai Lake. He also took the opportunity to escape and became a refugee in Gaotai City. Under the circumstances, if Wang Junlin hadn't picked him out to take him in, he would have died of starvation or freezing to death.

Sun Wentao's enthusiastic introduction made Yu Zimo, Zhan Peng and other guards even more hungry, their eyes full of anticipation, Wang Junlin smiled and said: "Sun Wentao, you have been in the capital for almost two months, you should have heard about the capital Five bullies!"

Sun Wentao was stunned for a moment, and said: "The villain followed the lord's order. While opening the teahouse, he also inquired about some news about the capital, including the information about the five tyrants in the capital. The villain has already ordered people to organize these news into Book, the lord washes the dust and changes clothes first, and the villain will go get it."

Wang Junlin nodded and said, "That's right, but just now we had some conflicts with the five tyrants of the capital, so now you send some smarter people to keep an eye on the five tyrants of the capital."

Sun Wentao immediately agreed and made arrangements.

In the imperial study room, Sui Emperor Yang Jian looked at a jade hairpin on the imperial case with a look of sadness and indignation. It was the relic of his beloved concubine Yuchi Lian'er. Empress Dugu was ill, but still no concubine dared to attend the bed at night. After Yang Jian came out of Dugu Jialuo's bedroom last night, he was reviewing the official document memorial. Concubine Yuchi Lian'er brought supper. Yuchi Lian'er was left to serve as bed attendant, but the queen got the news and sent someone to kill Yuchi Lian'er directly the next day while he was going to court.

Seeing things and thinking about others, Yang Jian couldn't help but burst into tears. Thinking of Lian'er's tenderness like water and his wife's viciousness and jealousy, he grieved in his heart: "Lian'er, I am sorry for you!"

At this time, an **** reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is news from the queen that the queen wants to drag her sick body to plead guilty!"

"Apologize?" Yang Jian sneered, "What's her crime? It's always been my fault, so tell him not to come here."

The **** knew the affairs between his master and the queen very well, so he hesitated and did not back down. Sure enough, Yang Jian sighed again, and said helplessly: "Go and tell the queen, I have important military and state affairs here. Thinking about it, I have no time to see her."

"Yes!" The **** was about to go down, but Yang Jian stopped him again, "Also, tell her again, I never blamed her, let her recover from her illness with peace of mind."

After the **** left, Yang Jian was stunned for a while, and heaved a long sigh. At this time, an old **** with gray hair and rosy face walked in silently, and saluted: "Your Majesty!"

Yang Jian raised his head in shock, frowned and said, "You old slave! Next time you come to see me, remember to make a noise."

The old **** smiled slightly, and said, "I've made a note of it."

Yang Jian then said: "Tell me! What is it?"

The old **** said: "Your Majesty, I have two things to report, both of which are related to the poisonous general Wang Junlin."

Yang Jian's eyes lit up, and he said, "Oh! This kid has finally arrived in the capital."

The old **** said: "Wang Junlin just arrived in the capital an hour ago."

Yang Jian nodded and said, "Tell me, which two things?"

The old **** said: "It rained heavily yesterday evening. Wang Junlin and Princess Changle met in a bamboo house in the outskirts of Fengwen County to avoid the rain. They stayed together in the same bamboo house all night."

Yang Jian's face showed anger, and he shouted: "This Wang Junlin is really brave."

The old **** then continued: "But the official next to the princess reported that nothing wrong happened between the two, but Wang Junlin wrote a poem, and the princess cried bitterly for half an hour after hearing it."

Most of the anger on Yang Jian's face faded, and he asked in surprise, "Poetry? This Wang Junlin can actually compose poetry, and even made Lihua cry for half an hour?"

The old **** nodded and said: "The servant has verified it, and the news is true."

Yang Jian sighed and said, "The second thing!"

"Wang Junlin and Mr. Yu's grandson, Yu Zimo, and his party entered the city from Yanping Gate. Yu Zimo clashed with Yang Su's grandson, Yang Rong, and five noble princes from the capital. All the mastiffs were shot and killed by Wang Junlin's guards, and half of the guards were wounded, Wang Junlin led his people away, Yang Rong and others only knew that Wang Junlin was the captain of Guoyi in the border town, but they didn't know his true identity." The shortest language, without any bias to describe things.

Hearing this, Yang Jian's eyes flickered, and he said, "Where is Wang Junlin now?"

The old **** said: "Wang Junlin didn't live in the post house, but in a teahouse in Nancheng."

Yang Jian narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, smiled, and said: "This matter is interesting, please pay attention to it at all times, and report to me as soon as possible."

The old **** bowed and said: "The servants will obey His Majesty's will."

…

Sun Sheng, the eldest son of Changsun's mansion in the north of the city, was reading a book in the study room. At this time, the door of the study room was pushed open, but a middle-aged beautiful woman came in leading a little girl with a three-haired bun.

The little girl was about six or seven years old, and she was born in pink and jade, as cute as a white porcelain doll. As soon as she entered the room, she grabbed the beautiful woman's hand, opened her arms and shouted happily: "Daddy, hug!"

"Guanyin maidservant, Daddy has been busy all day and is very tired, don't bother him."

"It doesn't matter, I just want Daddy to hug me!"

A kind smile appeared on Changsun Sheng's thin cheeks.

He squatted down, picked up the little girl, and then pressed his forehead against the little girl's forehead, making the little girl giggle happily.

"Ma'am, do you want dinner?"

Elder Sun Sheng hugged the little girl and sat down beside the desk.

The surname Changsun appeared as early as the Western Han Dynasty, but this eldest grandson is not the eldest grandson. The Changsun family in the capital of the Sui Dynasty originated from the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty. , and another branch became the surname of Changsun, which means the descendants of the head of the royal family. Later, when Yuan Clan Chronicles were compiled, the name of the hall was established as Thunderbolt Hall.

Although the Changsun family is also a member of the Guanlong Group, compared to other Guanlong nobles, the Changsun family's population is not prosperous.

During the Northern Anniversary, there was only one eldest grandson, Jian, who served as the governor of Jingzhou in the early years of Kaihuang.

When it came to Changsun Sheng's generation, the population seemed to be thinner than before. In addition to Changsun Sheng, there are two brothers of the same clan, so that it is difficult to compare with other powerful families. However, this is also the reason why Yang Jian prefers to use Changsun Sheng more than other powerful families.

The middle-aged beautiful woman is none other than Changsun Sheng's wife, Gao Shi. Speaking of which, Gao was married to Changsun Sheng after she was a descendant of the Northern Qi royal family and had a son and a daughter. Changsun Sheng has three sons. The eldest son, Changsun Wunai, is the son of his ex-wife, and he is also the most demeanor of Changsun Sheng. Now he is ordered to guard Taiyuan.

The eldest son of the second son Wuao, and the eldest son of the third son Wuxian are all from concubines.

Changsun Wuji is the fourth son, and also the son that Changsun Sheng values ​​most.

I don't know why the eldest Sun Sheng was thinking about it, but he gave up the merits of the eldest son to the second eldest son Heng'an from the concubine's room as General Yingyanglang. But in private, Changsun Sheng still prefers the younger daughter, that is, the little girl in his arms, the eldest grandson Wugou, whose name is Guanyin's servant.

At this moment, Changsun Wuji came in a hurry, with an excited face, but before entering the study, he suddenly remembered something, his expression calmed down instantly, and he walked in calmly and steadily, first saluting his parents respectfully, and then Said: "Father, Captain Zhou of Yanping Gate just sent a message that Wang Junlin has already entered the city."

Changsun Sheng lifted his spirits and said, "Has this kid finally come to the capital?"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "Junlin not only entered the capital, but also made another great event right after entering the city gate."

Chang Sun Sheng looked curious and said, "Oh! What's the big deal?"

Changsun Wuji said: "When Junlin entered the city gate, he happened to meet Yang Rong, He Ruojin, Mai Zizhong, Yuwen Chengji, and Zheng Wenyi, five noble sons who were jokingly called the five tyrants of the capital. He ordered people to kill thirteen mastiffs belonging to He Ruojin and the others, and injured more than twenty guards."

"It's such a coincidence that this happened!" Chang Sun Sheng said with his eyes narrowed, frowning slightly.

Changsun Wuji's eyes shone brightly, and he said, "Father, my son has already sent someone to inquire about the number of times this He Ruojin and other five people usually go out of the city to hunt, and most of them enter the city through the north gate and the west gate. Rarely, and never later than three quarters of Shen time, but today they only entered the city at You time. In addition, these five people usually go out of the city to hunt once every half a month, but this time is only five days away from the last time."

PS: The second update is here, there are at least two more updates today, so please look forward to it.
