Yang Yuanqing squatted down, held the boy's shoulder and smiled, "Your name is Li Shimin, right!"

"Do you know me?"

The boy widened his eyes and looked at Yang Yuanqing in surprise. Yang Yuanqing stood up and bowed to Li Yuan and smiled, "Governor Li, my name is Yang Yuanqing, and I am the grandson of Yang Taipu.

"So you are Yuan Qing's nephew!"

Li Yuan stroked his beard and laughed, "I have a good relationship with your father Xuangan. I have heard of my nephew Daming for a long time. My son Shimin admires you the most. He said that he would also join the army at the age of ten to make achievements for the Great Sui Dynasty."

Although Li Yuan said it sincerely, Yang Yuanqing always felt that this sentence was a bit unpleasant. Will Li Shimin follow his own example?

But why did Li Yuan appear here? He is the governor of Longzhou. He should go north to Renshou Palace in Qizhou?

"Governor Li, I just came from Renshou Palace."

The smile on Li Yuan's face disappeared immediately, and he waved his hand to Yang Yuanqing, "General Yang, can you come in and speak?"

Yang Yuanqing nodded happily, picked up the horse spear and horse bag, and walked into the elegant room.

There were a lot of room, with three maids standing on each side, and almost all children were sitting next to a long table in the middle. It seemed that Li Yuan's whole family was here, and in the middle was a man in his thirties. He was beautiful and gentle and friendly. This was Li Yuan's wife Dou.

Next to her were four children, and the oldest one sat on the top. She was about the same age as Yang Yuanqing, but half a head shorter than Yang Yuanqing. She wore a Confucian robe and looked gentle and elegant, with a straight face and clear eyes. Yang Yuanqing immediately guessed who he was. This should be Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng had just got married for less than half a year and was particularly energetic. On the right was his newlywed wife, with a beautiful appearance and quiet look.

Next to Li Jiancheng's wife is a girl about ten years old, who looks quite like her mother, but there is a kind of heroic spirit between her eyebrows and eyes. She should be the seat next to Li Xiuning, which was Li Shimin's seat. Li Shimin came in and stuck out his tongue and sat in his seat.

The next one is a little smaller, about five or six years old, and she is very thin, with a face as yellow paper and insufficient blood. This should be Li Xuanba. His mother was pregnant with Li Shimin just after giving birth to Li Shimin, which is obviously a bit congenital insufficiency and completely different from the Li Yuanba that Yang Yuanqing imagined.

However, he also saw that Li Xuanba had begun to build the foundation and Yang Yuanqing practiced martial arts for ten years. He knew that exquisite foundation building could completely change a person's physique and his potential was to create people. Although Li Xuanba is a little weak and sickly now, it is really hard to say whether he will become the world's first hero in the future.

The last one was about four or five years old, but tall and strong, dark skin, and looked strong all over his body. This was Li Yuanji, who had a good physique and was a good martial arts talent.

Yang Yuanqing discovered an interesting phenomenon that Li Yuan's wife Dou gave birth to Li Jiancheng. After nearly ten years of silence, she suddenly gave birth to three children in a series, as if the couple had a long time of indifference in their relationship and suddenly became extremely intimate again. What happened in the middle? It was interesting.

"My nephew, this is a slut, these are my children, that is, the eldest son Jiancheng, the eldest daughter Xiuning, the second son Shimin, the third son Xuanba, and the fourth son Yuanji."

Li Yuan introduced his family to Yang Yuanqing one by one, and he introduced Yuanqing to his wife and Jiancheng, "This is Yuanqing, the son of Xuangan, you should know."

According to generation, Li Yuan and Yang Yuanqing's father Yang Xuangan were the first generation. Yang Yuanqing hurriedly saluted Lord Dou, "Yuanqing meets with his wife!"

Mrs. Dou smiled slightly, "How is your mother? I haven't seen her for two months."

The mother Mrs. Dou mentioned was naturally Mrs. Zheng, the mother of Yang Yuanqing, who was a good wife. They had a good relationship. Speaking of which, there was a little bit of a turning point relationship between them. Li Jiancheng's newlywed wife Zheng was Mrs. Zheng's niece, and this marriage was still tied to Mrs. Zheng.

But Yang Yuanqing didn't know about this relationship. He smiled bitterly, "I haven't seen her in five years."

"Let's not talk about family matters for now!"

Li Yuan said anxiously: "I just came from Taiyuan Prefecture and was about to go to Renshou Palace. How is the situation of the emperor?"

Yang Yuanqing pondered for a moment and pointed out to Li Yuan outside the door. The two walked out of the room. Yang Yuanqing lowered his voice and said, "Uncle Li Shi, think about the worst place!"

Li Yuan was stunned, "You...you mean, the emperor had already nodded and sighed slightly, "I unfortunately passed away yesterday afternoon!"

Tears surged in Li Yuan's eyes. He knelt down to the northwest and cried bitterly: "I failed to send the emperor to the end, I am guilty!"

All the drinkers looked in surprise and talked a lot. Is this person's mind problem? He knelt down and cried in the restaurant. Yang Yuanqing hurriedly helped Li Yuan up, "Uncle Li Shishi asked for a grief and obey the changes. The news of this matter was blocked. Don't spread it."

Li Yuan nodded, wiped away his tears, and said to Yang Yuanqing: "Nephew, have a drink together!"

Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "I want to rush back to the capital. I will visit Uncle Shi again if I have the chance in the future!"

Li Yuan didn't force him, but in fact he was in no mood, so he sighed and said, "Okay! I won't keep you anymore. I'll also rush to Renshou Palace immediately to send a funeral to the emperor."

Yang Yuanqing ordered his friend to pack his food and take it away. At this time, Li Jiancheng led his younger brother Li Shimin and walked out.

Li Jiancheng is one year older than Yang Yuanqing, with a generous and gentle personality, and is deeply loved by his father. He just heard his father's sad voice in the room and was suspicious, so he came out to check the situation.

"Dad, what happened?"

Li Yuan sighed and whispered: "The Lord has passed away."

"Ah!" Li Jiancheng was shocked, "When did this happen?"

"Yuan Qing said it was noon yesterday, alas! We said it was one step late and did not meet the emperor in the end.

Li Yuan felt regretful and could not hide his inner depression on his face. He was unable to meet the emperor for the last time. He had not fulfilled his wishes as a minister and might be impeached by the censor. Although the emperor issued an edict a month ago that the governor of the world was not allowed to visit the hospital in Beijing, in fact, it was not allowed to attend the funeral, but he was the governor of Longzhou and the royal relative. The governor of the emperor died in Renshou Palace not far from his rule, but he was not present. This was unreasonable.

Li Jiancheng next to him was also very disappointed. He had been recommended as an official. Now that the emperor has passed away, the new emperor ascended the throne, everything is about to be reinstated. His recommendation to become an official has become far away. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Only Li Shimin didn't care about the emperor's death. Compared to the emperor, he was more interested in Yang Yuanqing in front of him. His master Changsun Sheng told him the story of Yang Yuanqing, and he admired Yang Yuanqing very much.

Li Shimin held Yang Yuanqing and looked up curiously and asked him: "Brother Yuanqing, are you really ten years old in the army?"

Yang Yuanqing squatted down, pressed Li Shimin's shoulder, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Grow up quickly, go to Dali City, Fengzhou, I invite you to drink horse milk wine. Maybe I can still lead you to fight against the Turks, are you afraid of death?"

Li Shimin patted the xiōngkong "It is my glory to die on the battlefield, and the soldiers are not afraid of death."

Seeing that Yang Yuanqing was speaking seriously, Li Yuan hurriedly pulled his son over and laughed dryly, "Brother Yang is talking to you, you are still serious!"

Yang Yuanqing also laughed. He took the friend's paper bag, paid the money, and bowed to Li Yuan and said, "Uncle Shi, I'll leave first."

Li Yuan also bowed to him and said, "Nephew, we will have a date later!"

"Looking back to Brother Yang!" Li Shimin also waved to him.

"See you well!"

Yang Yuanqing waved his hand, nodded to Li Jiancheng again, and then went downstairs with a long spear and a horse bag. Seeing Yang Yuanqing go away, Li Shimin looked up at his father, "Dad, why don't you allow me to go to Dali City?"

Li Yuan likes this smart Yuanbi's second son the most. He smiled at Li Shimin's head and said, "Let's talk about it when you grow up."

He felt that it was not enough to educate his son, so he squatted down and said to him solemnly: "You have to remember that you can't hand over your life to others at any time. Have you remembered it?"

Li Shimin nodded, "Dad, I remember!"

"Let's go! Let's have a meal." The father and son went into the room.

"Madam, Yuan Qing said he had something to do, so he would take a step first."

At the Xianyang wine shop, he met Li Yuan and his son, Yang Yuanqing began to realize that human hearts were not as simple as he imagined, either black or white, everything was changing, and everyone would change with the changes in the environment.

Li Yuan's sorrow and crying for Yang Jian's death was sincere. At this moment, Li Yuan never expected that one day he would overthrow the Sui Dynasty established by the emperor whom he cried with his own hands.

Li Yuan would not even expect that his son Li Shimin would kill his brother and brother with his own hands and force him to abdicate.

History is a confusing account, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow?

Yang Yuanqing's knot finally unraveled. In fact, he didn't have to consider Yang Guang's viciousness. Which emperor has not viciousness and cruelness in all dynasties?

The same is true for Yang Jian. If he was not vicious and cruel, how could he usurp the throne and become emperor? After ascending the throne, he almost killed the Northern Zhou royal family.

Yang Guang's viciousness is also normal, it is a normal emperor's quality. As long as he does not violate Yang Guang's bottom line, Yang Guang will definitely kill him, just like yesterday. Didn't Yang Guang not kill him?

In fact, for an emperor, there is no need to consider his people's good and evil, his benevolence and morality? As long as he manages himself well and lets things go, he is Yang Su's grandson, and he should support Yang Guang. This is nature.

Since he promised to be the shield of the Great Sui Empire, he should do his best. If one day he could not stop Yang Guang from his destruction and could not stop the tide of history, then he should obey the trend, take over Yang Guang's banner of great cause, and continue to defend the new Great Sui Dynasty. This is not against his oath, this is nature, and it is God's will.

Yang Yuanqing whipped his war horse hard and rushed towards the capital.

Two days later, Yang Yue successfully seized the troops from the capital and controlled the entire capital. He immediately released the news of the death of Emperor Yang Jian and announced Yang Jian's will.

"The crown prince is broad and heirs, and he is kind and filial. With his industry, he can achieve a joint ambition. However, he will work together to govern the world with all his heart and soul. Even if the joint is in peace, how can he hate it again?"

The city was covered with mourning, and Emperor Yang Jian's frugality and self-discipline had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He had been in power for more than 20 years, and the world was peaceful and the society was stable. His death undoubtedly made countless people in the capital feel like they had lost their fathers...

Five days later, the coffin of Emperor Yang Jian of Sui returned to the capital. Hundreds of thousands of people spontaneously went to Zhuque Street to welcome the return of the coffin. People wore mourning for Yang Jian, knelt on the ground and cried. The entire capital seemed to be in a tragic wind and rain.

After the funeral of Emperor Yang Jian of Sui in front of Daxing Hall, the prince Yang Guang accepted the congratulations of all officials in Daxing Hall and officially ascended the throne as the Emperor of Sui. He respected his father Yang Jian's temple name as Emperor Wen, but the year name has not been changed yet. Yang Guangchu ascended the throne, and he had too many things to do. He was ambitious to fulfill his father's wishes and wanted to create achievements for thousands of years. But at this moment, Yang Guang's throne was not stable, and the shadow of the civil war had already enveloped the sky of the Great Sui.
