Chapter 20 suggests raising one or two phoenixes.
"Although Yang Xuangan's rebellion was quickly quelled, the second campaign against Goguryeo ended hastily, not only wasting a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, but also making Emperor Yang of Sui feel tired. This is probably why I wanted to revise the homework, and after working hard for two nights, you told me that it was not needed at all!"
A spoiled brat from the Song Dynasty: This is a nightmare!
A scion of a prominent family in the Ming Dynasty: To be honest, I have too much homework!
……
"The war is temporarily suspended, but Yang Guang's wild thoughts are still running wild. He has a wild idea that there are too many rebels because there is too much population, so he is very clear about the evil things he wants to do!"
"Yang Guang wiped out more than 30,000 of Yang Xuangan's followers in one fell swoop, and Yang Xuangan's family was thus wiped out in a nine-generation elimination game."
"Next, Yang Guang was very wary of Li Yuan, which was not wrong. In order to put Yang Guang at ease, Li Yuan acted as a playboy and indulged in wine and women all day long."
"Yang Guang issued another decree that if any household had produced rebels, that household's property would be confiscated. This caused suffering to the people and delighted the officials. As a result, the officials abused their power, falsely accused people, and confiscated their property. This led to the emergence of more and more rebels."
"Given this situation, any other emperor would have been in a terrible predicament, but Emperor Yang of Sui stubbornly launched the third war against Goguryeo."
"This seems to have become his obsession, but the previous two wars had already devastated the Sui army and severely weakened Goguryeo. This time, both were in similar shape, but fortunately, they won this time. Unlike the previous two wars where they surrendered and then stopped fighting, Emperor Yang of Sui did not immediately return to the capital after winning."
"At this time, the Sui Dynasty was riddled with problems and uprisings were everywhere. I wonder what Emperor Wen of Sui would think if he saw this scene."
Sui Dynasty
Yang Jian was furious. He had been supporting a population of over 50 million, and the construction projects had consumed more than half of it. And that wasn't enough! Yang Guang was on his deathbed; if you didn't look closely, you would really think he was dead.
"Even the most broken dynasty has loyal ministers. At this time, someone submitted a memorial saying that there were rebels everywhere in the world! But Yang Guang did not believe it and sentenced him to beheading. Gradually, no one mentioned this matter to him again."
"Just as the emperor and his ministers were putting on a show of peace and prosperity, Yang Guang proposed to tour Jiangdu. The loyal minister Cui Mingxiang stopped him, saying that the whole world was full of rebels and that going there would only be a death sentence. Yang Guang did not want to listen, so he ordered his men to kill him."
"So Yang Guang stayed in Jiangdu for two years. Li Mi of the Guanlong Group led the Wagangzhai rebels all the way to Luoyang. In November of the same year, Yang Guang's cousin Li Yuan raised an army in Jincheng, Taiyuan, and captured Chang'an."
"At this time, Yang Guang had no intention of going back, even though the enemy had already reached his doorstep! But he was also afraid. Fortunately, Yang Guang ordered people to renovate a hundred houses and fill them with beautiful women selected from the common people. This seemed to have a certain calming effect. At least compared to facing the rebel army, I think he would rather live a life of debauchery with beautiful women."
"In his final moments, perhaps because he knew the reality and deliberately numbed himself, he looked in the mirror and said to the Empress, 'With such a fine head like mine, who would cut it off?'"
"And this person was probably someone he never expected. When Yang Guang traveled to Jiangdu, he was accompanied by people from Guanzhong. Most of them wanted to go home, but Yang Guang refused. He killed them one by one, and killed them in pairs. In the end, Yuwen Huaji led his men into Yang Guang's palace, and the life of Emperor Yang of Sui came to an end. He died at the age of fifty."
The First Emperor never expected that this second-generation Sui emperor, who resembled Hu Hai, would die like this. If the Sui Dynasty was like this, then there must have been many more uprisings at the end of the Qin Dynasty!
Yeah, let's go back and stuff those three people with a truckload of salted fish!
Meanwhile, Liu Che was restless, thinking, "Was that my father? Was that my father?"
Oh dear, I'm probably going to get a spanking from my father again! Can't I even say I'm envious?!
"Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, I have a small suggestion. Your two sons are incompetent. Why don't you try to cultivate Li Yuan's son, Li Shimin? He is the future Emperor Shimin of the Tang Dynasty—the White Moonlight, the Supreme General of Heavenly Strategy, the Heavenly Khan, and the Emperor of a Thousand Ages!"
Li Shimin spat out his tea with a "pfft." This request was really something. So many titles belonged to "I," he thought, "I feel a little embarrassed!"
Sui Dynasty
Dugu Jialuo and Yang Jian had just digested Lin Ke's suggestion and never expected that it would be Li Yuan who replaced the Sui Dynasty.
“Since the child is useless, then let’s do as Lin Ke said. If it’s a waste of resources and manpower, it will only make the people suffer. The fewer years of war we can have, the less suffering we will have. Dynasties will always change.” Dugu Jialuo comforted her.
Yang Jian, pale-faced, nodded.
During the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui
Yang Guang never expected Lin Ke to come up with such a plan. The world is in turmoil, and the people are rising up everywhere—they all deserve to die! They deserve to die! Now I also want to kill Li Yuan! Destroy Li Shimin!
Hahahaha! Too bad I don't have time. Yuwen Huaji will probably rush in soon!
When I saw my brother being favored by our father and mother, I wondered what else he did besides indulging in wine and women. Why couldn't I be the emperor? I wanted to be a good emperor, one who was good to the people.
