(Thank you very much for the generosity and monthly ticket support of 'Book Friends 18672397', 'Disobedience Full Burial 708', 'Book Friends 28710902'.)
"Since you were young, you lived in seclusion in the mountains with a different person as your teacher. Since you came out of the mountains, you have destroyed the city of Longxi with poison. Quanguan, to reverse the situation of the war, this is three. Follow Changsun Sheng as an envoy to the Western Turks, to sow dissension, resulting in Western Turks being divided into three, and there is no force to invade our Great Sui for more than ten years, this is four. With one's own strength Destroying the matter of King Bailan of Tuyuhun entering the city of Shazhou, this is the fifth. You have made great achievements in battle and benefited the country. I am very pleased and grateful. Although there was a reward last year, I deeply think that the previous rewards are far from your achievements. Matching, in this imperial court, rewarding meritorious deeds and punishing those who have failed, and giving full play to my talents is the right bestowed on me by the heavens, and it is also my lifelong ambition. I have decided to reward you for your outstanding achievements with a high-ranking official and generous salary, and to work hard with a thousand gold mansion."
Speaking of this, Yang Jian swept across the audience majesticly, and continued: "I will pass on my will, and I will be named the guard of Gaotai City, the captain of Guoyi, and King Anbo of Qin'an will be the fourth-rank general of Zhenyuan, the Marquis of Qin'an County. Reward There is a mansion of the Marquis in the capital, with a thousand taels of gold, and eight hundred households in the city of food."
"Come here, present the crown belt. I want to personally wear the purple gold crown for Marquis Qin An." Yang Jian said again before everyone was surprised by the generous reward.
The hearts of all the ministers were shocked. Many people looked at Wang Junlin's eyes, which were flames of jealousy and envy. Instead of wearing a golden crown, a gorgeous scabbard should be put on the sharp sword in his hand."
Wang Junlin quickly showed great gratitude and excitement, knelt down and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, long live your majesty, long live long live long live long live long live long live your majesty."
"Aiqing is flat, Aiqing will be my shield in the Sui Dynasty in the future, and a sharp sword in my hand." Yang Jian was very satisfied with Wang Junlin's reaction. Said.
Of course Wang Junlin knew what Yang Jian wanted him to do. In the eyes of the officials, the Sui Emperor erected Wang Junlin to fight against the powerful family. Either be killed by a powerful family, or directly become a victim.
If Wang Junlin hadn't known the subsequent historical process in advance, he might try to push this matter away, but he knew that Yang Jian would die in a year at the latest, and once Yang Jian died, with Yang Guang's personality, Wang Junlin would not be needed at all. Instead, he rolled up his sleeves and went into battle with powerful families and Guanlong nobles.
Yang Jian spent about half a year lying on the hospital bed during the year he was alive, so Wang Junlin only needed to persist for half a year.
Of course, there are still great dangers in the past six months, but compared to the gains from Yang Jian, these risks are completely worth it.
Especially if Wang Junlin remembers correctly, even if Wang Junlin didn't make a move, Yang Su, the Duke of Yue, and Qiu Rui, the king of Changping, Yang Guang couldn't wait to attack them as soon as Yang Jian died. Yang Guang was so exhausted that he was building the new capital Luoyang, and the latter directly found an excuse to ransack his family and exterminate his family.
While the thoughts in his mind were turning, Wang Junlin noticed Yang Su and Qiu Rui looking at him coldly from the corner of his eyes. At this time, two servants came up with purple gold crowns and crimson robes. Yang Jian also stepped out of the dragon chair. Up and down.
The elegant music on both sides of the Royal Majesty suddenly played, which was very pleasant. The four maids came up slowly to untie Wang Junlin's outer clothes, took off the golden crown that tied his hair, combed the dragon's hair with a comb, tied it into a bun, and made it for him Put on the crimson robe, put on the jade belt, bow and retreat.
Yang Jian stepped forward, with a smile on his face, took the purple gold crown and put it on Wang Junlin's head, fixed it with a jade hairpin, tied the crown belt under the forehead, put on the purple gold fish bag, and said loudly: "Aiqing should be loyal to the country, Serve my heart."
Gagle music stops, training words stop.
Wang Junlin bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to thank the emperor.
After the ceremony, the servant actually directly announced his withdrawal from the court, and Yang Jian sat on the imperial court and left first. The courtiers seemed to be accustomed to Yang Jian's style, only Wang Junlin felt a little abrupt and a little dazed.
Elder Sun Sheng brought some military generals whom Wang Junlin had just met before the court to congratulate him.
There was admiration in Han Qinhu's eyes, and he said with a smile: "You are the only one in the Sui Dynasty who did not rely on the family and became the real founder of the country at such an age. Now Your Majesty gives you The mansion has been rewarded, when will the Marquis banquet in your mansion be held?"
Changsun Sheng suddenly recalled that when Wang Junlin was on an envoy to the Western Turks in the early spring, the latter taught Princess Xinyi cooking skills, his eyes lit up, and he said: "This kid has lived with his master in the deep mountains and forests since he was a child. I have been in charge of cooking all the time, but I was trained by his master to be a good cook. I was lucky enough to eat once in Gaotai City when I was on a diplomatic mission to the West Turks. It still makes me drool, so you need to personally host the Fenghou banquet in your mansion. Just cook."
"It's a junior's honor to be able to cook for your uncles." Wang Junlin knew that the elder Sun Sheng had good intentions. , this honor, even if it is entertaining people of the level of Shangzhu Guohan Qinhu and backer Wang Yanglin, it is an honor for the diners.
General Zhenyuan is honored, which is equivalent to the rank of major general in later generations, while Marquis of Qin'an County is a title. Therefore, Wang Junlin did not get a new specific official position, but only confirmed his status as a great nobleman. Wang Junlin couldn't figure out how Yang Jian considered this point. However, as long as he is not transferred from Zhangye County, he doesn't have to worry. Of course, even if Yang Jian and the court wanted to transfer him away from the northwest, he still had a way to make the court withdraw his order.
"Qin Anhou! Congratulations! You are in your twenties, and you will be named a prince in the future. It is very possible to become a king of the opposite sex!" The man came to Wang Junlin and said with a gentle smile. Seeing this, the others hurried to the sides.
This person was dressed in a purple four-claw python robe. He was standing at the head of the civil servants just now, and he was so young. Don't dare to call him back easily, otherwise, if the address is wrong, it will cause a catastrophe.
Changsun Sheng said at the right time: "Jun Lin! This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so hurry up and greet him."
Although Wang Junlin had some guesses in his heart, but when it was confirmed, he still couldn't help being slightly shocked. This one in front of him is a special one among the emperors of all dynasties. In terms of fame, he is much more famous than his father Yang Jian. It is a name of infamy and stupidity.
Since he came to this world, Wang Junlin has thought about how he would face those famous ministers, generals or celebrities in history one day, among which he thought about Yang Guang the most. Not for anything else, just because this one is really too special.
Anyone who has really studied history knows that Yang Guang is by no means as bad as the Li and Tang Dynasty deliberately worsened and derogatory.
Wang Junlin combined his knowledge of the history of the Sui Dynasty and the information he had collected in this era to come to a conclusion: Yang Guang is capable of both civil and military affairs, military and political affairs, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an incomparable genius.
Wang Junlin remembers that in the later generations, the People’s Daily said that there was an article titled “Without correct thinking, the greater the ability, the greater the harm.”
And replace this sentence with "Without correct thinking and a lot of power in hand, the stronger the ability, the greater the harm."
Wang Junlin thinks that Yang Guang is in this situation, but Yang Guang controls the whole world, so Yang Guang left a legacy that will benefit all generations, but he became the culprit for a while.
Therefore, it can be said that Yang Guang is one of the most important monarchs in Chinese history, and the name Yang Guang can never be avoided when talking about the prosperity of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. However, due to the chaos in the world, the collapse of the country, and his death, he was derogated as "Emperor Sui Yang" by the later Li and Tang Dynasties. (In fact, his real temple name and posthumous title is Sui Shizu Ming Emperor, which can be referred to as Sui Shizu or Sui Ming Emperor.)
In Wang Junlin's view, Yang Guang, like Wei Wudi Cao Cao, Liang Wudi Xiao Yan, and Tang Taizong Li Shimin, belonged to the world's first-class standards in politics, military affairs, literature, poetry, and fields. At the same time, a genius who is worthy of the name of politician, military strategist, writer, and poet is not like Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, who left tens of thousands of imperial poems that cannot be understood, and can barely be called a "poet" .
Regardless of Yang Guang's personal ability, compared to Wang Junlin's fierce reputation, Yang Guang is actually a real ruthless person. My elder brother's family often ransacked and wiped out thousands of powerful families, etc. These are just trivial things.
With such a character, no matter how Wang Junlin positioned himself, he was the one he didn't want to offend. He even knew that Yang Guang would take Yang Jian's position smoothly, so he would deliberately establish a good relationship with him.
Thinking in this way, Wang Junlin immediately showed an excited expression, bowed deeply to Yang Guang, and said: "The humble Wang Junlin pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness's praise makes the humble official very flattered."
Under Yang Guang's watchful eyes, Wang Junlin obviously felt more pressure than when facing the current emperor Yang Jian. kill.
"The few important things you have done are very suitable for this king. I hope you will be able to fight the world with this king in the future." It shows its militarism and grandiose side.
For Yang Guang, no matter how powerful Wang Junlin is, without a powerful family behind him, without the support of hundreds or even thousands of years, he is at best a general. Doesn't do much.
