On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 356 To reassure him

He had been teased by Cui Che for sixteen years. According to Yang Jian's previous temperament, he had already sent envoys to Jixian to arrest him.

However, due to Cui Che's current power, Yang Jian had to be cautious, especially after he received a report from Cui Che, claiming that 30,000 Khitan households were attached to him and were placed between Heng and Yan.

But according to reliable information, these 30,000 households are all strong men selected by Cui Che from among the eight tribes of Khitan.

In fact, there was no need for Yang Guang to say anything. Yang Jian had long wanted to recruit Cui Che to return to the court, but he was worried about triggering a rebellion in Yan. As Yang Guang said, once Cui Che led the Hu people south, it would be a disaster.

Therefore, Yang Jian acted in accordance with Cui Che's request one by one, including canonizing Da Hemohui as the Khitan King.

Yang Jian was not in a hurry to cut off Cui Che's wings. This was not something that could be done just by cutting it.

Once Cui Che becomes aware of it, he is afraid that a rebellion will immediately start.

What Yang Jian did was undoubtedly a plan to take off Cui Che's guard and make him think that the court was not suspicious, so as to find an opportunity to deceive Cui Che into the court, just like before the Eastern Expedition, Cui Che entered the court in response to the imperial edict.

Compared with sending troops to quell the rebellion in Yan, this method undoubtedly caused the least damage to the country and was the most certain.

Even if the five sisters Yang Lihua and Yang A left Guanzhong with their families, Yang Jian did not stop them.

What's the point of stopping him? Cui Che's eldest son Cui Qiji and second son Cui Yanzong are both in Hebei. The remaining Cui Yanqing and the other five sisters cannot coerce him at all.

Yang Jian didn't think Cui Che would surrender for Yang Lihua and Yang Awu.

Rather than holding his two daughters as useless hostages, it would be better to let them go to Daxing, which would also make Cui Che's heart better.

Yang Jian explained his plan to Yang Guang and said:

"In the past, Cui Che went out on expeditions. Before the war, I would always call him back to Daxing to explain everything.

"You can't act rashly now, you need to maintain the old friendship with him and make him relax his guard.

"When Cui Che conquers Goguryeo again, I will summon him to the court, and he will not doubt me.

"When he returns to the capital, he may be killed or captured. In just a moment, the crisis in Yan Land can be easily solved."

Yang Guang felt at ease and complimented:

"Father is wise."

Yang Guang still did not mention that Yang Liang had envoy exchanges with Cui Che. Firstly, there was no evidence, and secondly, he was worried that Yang Jian would be suspicious and thought that he was taking the opportunity to eliminate dissidents.

Yang Jian's five sons, one dead and two useless, without conclusive evidence, Yang Jian will not attack Yang Liang.

What's more, in Yang Jian's eyes, the country's biggest enemy now is Cui Che. Placing Yang Liang, his own son, in Bingzhou is more reliable than outsiders.

Of course, what's more important is that Yang Guang still has a sense of how much his brother Yang Liang weighs.

His real inner enemy is Cui Che. The most important thing now is to cooperate with Yang Jian to trick Cui Che back to Guanzhong.

In fact, if I really wanted to change someone else, I would have been deceived by Yang Jian's series of seemingly trusting behaviors.

But the Yang family and his son did not know that Cui Che had already made up his mind that unless he led troops to invade Daxing in the future, he would not go to Guanzhong anyway.

As for Cui Che's promise to Yang Jian to use Liaodong as a base and then attack Goguryeo, there is no trace of it.

Yang Chan stepped back and didn't go far when he bumped into another of his father's favorite concubines, Cai Guiren.

After Dugu Jialuo's death, Yang Jian gave Er Chen and Cai clan noble titles, and Da Chen took charge of the affairs of the harem.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

Mr. Cai gave every gift in a generous manner.

The proximity of his concubine's mother inevitably made Yang Guang confused and obsessed.

He is a prince, but he really just likes women, and he can't get any pretty women.

But just as Cui Che prefers widows of high status, Yang Jian's concubines can also arouse Yang Guang's deepest desires.

Fortunately, Yang Guang's reason finally defeated his lust. Before he sat on the throne, Yang Guang was still able to restrain his desires, just like when Dugu Jialuo was alive, he had been carefully maintaining his image as a womanizer.

"No need to be polite, Mr. Cai. On this trip, you are going to visit your father?"

Yang Guang said with a serious smile.

Cai Guiren nodded slightly:

"Exactly."

"In this way, I won't bother Mr. Cai anymore."

Yang Guang said goodbye and passed by Cai Guiren. Yang Guang unconsciously took a deep breath of the fragrance.

Looking back, Yang Guang felt entangled in his heart when he saw Cai Guiren swaying his waist and hips and walking away.

He hopes that his father will pass away early so that he can take care of these concubines, especially Da Chen, who is most favored by his father.

But I also hope that Yang Jian can take Cui Che away with him before he passes away.

Returning to the East Palace, Yang Guang put aside his anxiety and recalled the scene of meeting Cai Guiren, and unconsciously thought of Da Chen again.

For a moment, he was so lustful that he sent for his two concubines, Princess Chen, the fourth daughter of Guangde, the empress of Nanchen, Chen Shubao, and Chen Ting, the sixth daughter.

Not only Yang Jian but also Cui Che were able to enjoy the beauty of having sisters serving one husband. After the death of Dugu Jialuo, Yang Guang also welcomed the two daughters of Chen Shubao, whom he had coveted for a long time, into the East Palace.

If you can't get involved with being an aunt for the time being, you can also find solace in Da Chen's two nieces.

Princess Xiao heard that Yang Guang had returned and was in the study, so she went to look for him with the dishes in hand. No one dared to stop her along the way. When she walked outside the door, she heard the sound of joy in the house.

Mrs. Xiao's face turned red. As a woman, she didn't understand what was going on in the room.

She sighed softly and could only leave quietly.

Now that her husband is fulfilling his wish and has become the prince, Mrs. Xiao still misses her life in the Jin Palace even more.

In Yang Guang's heart, the status of the Chen sisters cannot be compared with that of the Xiao family, but he and Xiao have been husband and wife for twenty years. The original passion has faded now, so how can they compare to the Chen sisters?

Give yourself a sense of freshness.

At the same time, the Western Turkic Datou Khan, who was defeated by Yang Su last year, was betrayed again after escaping far away. All the more than ten Tiele people under his command surrendered to the Sui Dynasty. The Datou Khan's tribe collapsed and could not protect themselves.

, had no choice but to defect to Tuyuhun.

Upon seeing this, Nili Khan of the Western Turks led his troops to attack these tribes. After a fierce battle, although the tribes that surrendered to the Sui Dynasty suffered heavy casualties, Nili Khan himself was also killed in the battle.

Yang Jian was overjoyed when the Tiele people came to surrender. He handed over all these people to the control of Rangan, the Qimin Khan of the Eastern Turks, and moved the Qimin people to Qikou (today's Erenhot, Inner Mongolia).

After Datou defected to Tuyuhun, his grandson who stayed behind at Suiyechuan (today's Chu River in Central Asia) gathered the remaining people and established himself as Khan, namely Shekui Khan.

After Nili Khan died in the war with the Tiele tribe, his son Ashina Daman succeeded to the throne and became Nijue Chuluo Khan.

The Luo Khan of the Western Turks Mujue planned to take the opportunity to annex the Western Turks and break out a war with the Shekui Khan. The outcome of this war will be difficult to determine in a short time, but at least until then, the Longyou area will not be disturbed by the Turks again.
