Sui and Tang Dynasties: Beginning with Overlord Inheritance

South of Jingzhou, Jiangling.

The messenger of the Li family came straight to the city at full speed.

When he arrived at the city gate, he was stopped by Liang Jun.

"Who is here, dare to forcefully break into Jiangling?"

Zhang Xiu, the general guarding the city, shouted and asked.

The rebels defending the city all drew their bows and strings, waiting for Zhang Xiu's order.

"Under the order of Lord Tang, I have come here to deliver the news!"

The messenger said hastily.

After all, he also specially showed the token.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised his hand and let the envoy of the Duke of Tang go in.

The messenger still rode his fast horse and went straight to Jiangling's mansion.

Seeing the guard showing the token directly, it was obvious that Xiao Mian had ordered someone from the Li family to come.

Therefore, the guards of the mansion did not stop the messenger.

When he arrived at the mansion, the messenger got off his horse and hurried to the hall of the mansion.

At this time, Xiao Mian was drinking hot tea.

Cen Wenwen was at the side, flipping through Jiangling's government affairs during this period.

"Mr. Liang, the Li family sent someone here."

A guard came in to report.

"Let him in."

Li Yuan raised his hand to signal.

"promise."

The guard took the order, turned and left.

In less than a moment, the messenger from the Li family came in panting.

"See Mr. Liang."

Seeing Xiao Xian, the messenger hastily saluted.

"Ah."

Xiao Mian nodded lightly.

"Li Yuan ordered you to come, what do you want to do?"

He put down the teacup in his hand and asked.

Cen Wenwen, who was dealing with government affairs, also put down his work.

"News came from Chang'an that the emperor of the Sui Dynasty would go south and hand over the government affairs of the court to Yang Zhao."

The messenger gasped.

"what?"

Hearing this, Xiao Mi suddenly stood up, and even Cen Wenwen's expression changed slightly.

They agreed with the Li family and prepared to deal with Sui together.

While waiting for the best time to come, I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.

"Is the news true?"

But Xiao Mian is not a fool, so he still asked with a bit of vigilance.

Although they are allied with the Li family, they are still suspicious of each other.

Xiao Xian was also worried about herself, and was suddenly sold out by the Li family.

"The news is absolutely true. I believe it won't take long for Duke Liang to receive it."

The messenger took a deep breath and said.

He was sweating profusely, and he had obviously galloped all the way, hardly resting in the middle.

"Huh."

Xiao Mi's breathing suddenly became rapid.

He looked at Cen Wenwen who was on the side, waiting for the other party to express his opinion.

It is not difficult to see from this that Xiao Xian still trusts Cen Wenwen.

"Duke Tang asked you to tell us this, is there anything else?"

Cen Wenwen asked.

"Yang Zhao has become the crown prince of the Sui Dynasty."

The messenger continued.

The people of the Li family were not surprised by this incident.

Because Yang Zhao is the sole heir of the royal family, what's so strange about him being the crown prince?

Compared with the news of Yang Guang going south, it is not too surprising that Yang Zhao was canonized as the prince.

"Cen Wenwen, what do you think?"

Xiao Mian asked in a deep voice.

"Back to Duke Liang, from what my subordinates have seen, it is true that the emperor of the Sui Dynasty went south eight times."

Cen Wenwen said in a deep voice.

"is it?"

Xiao Xian frowned slightly.

"Since this is the case, we must not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

His voice trembled a little.

Even though Xiao Mian could maintain a calm expression, his tone still betrayed his heart.

"Duke Liang, right now we need to quickly form an alliance with the rest of the forces, and make preparations before the Sui Emperor goes south."

Cen Wenwen suggested.

"Ben just has this intention, and now immediately send someone to spread the news that the emperor of the Sui Dynasty is going south."

Xiao Mian ordered.

"promise."

Cen Wenwen took the order and quickly went down to make arrangements.

The envoy sent by Li Yuan also completed the mission and took a rest in Jiangling for a while before returning to Bingzhou.

After the messenger and Cen Wenwen left for a while, news also came from Liang Jun's secret work.

What the envoy of the Li family said was true, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty was indeed going south and handed over the power of the court to Yang Zhao.

Hearing this news, Xiao Mian completely dispelled his doubts.

What he thinks now is mainly that his own people spread the news quickly.

After receiving replies from the rest of the forces, they immediately began planning to kill the Sui Emperor.

The people sent by Cen Wenwen spread the news by means of an urgent letter from eight hundred miles away.

The first to hear the news was the rebel forces in the south.

For example Li Zitong and Du Fuwei et al.

When Li Zitong received the news, he immediately called Wu Yunzhao, Wu Tianxi, Mao Wenshen and others to come.

Everyone gathered and saluted Li Zitong one after another.

"Exemption."

Li Zitong said with a flick of his sleeves.

"Mr. Feng Ming summoned his subordinates in such a hurry, why?"

Wu Yunzhao asked curiously.

Wu Tianxi also looked at Li Zitong suspiciously.

Only Mao Wenshen vaguely guessed something.

"Some time ago, Liang Gong and Xiao Mian issued an alliance order, intending to gather many forces together to deal with Sui."

Li Zitong said slowly.

"Subordinates know."

Wu Yun recalled a sentence.

Li Zitong didn't rush to reply, whether the alliance is still unknown.

"I have now decided to agree to Xiao Mi's invitation to form an alliance."

Li Zitong said.

"Feng Minggong, is this too hasty?"

Wu Yunzhao frowned and asked.

"No, not at all, because we have an excellent opportunity to deal with Sui Shi."

Li Zitong's eyes lit up.

"Feng Minggong, could it be that there is some news?"

Mao Wenshen asked.

"That's right, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty is about to take over and hand over the power of the country to Yang Zhao to manage."

Xiao Mian nodded and said.

"Going south?"

Mao Wen was taken aback.

Going south at this time is inevitably a little irrational.

The Sui Dynasty has just recovered, and going south is very likely to change the current situation.

"Hmph, it seems that the Sui Dynasty emperor has swelled."

Mao Wen snorted deeply.

He didn't suspect that going south was indeed Yang Guang's style.

After all, the Yangzhou area was the place where Yang Guang stayed the most at the beginning, and he already had feelings for him.

Otherwise, why would Yang Guang build a palace in Jiangdu.

The victory in the Goguryeo expedition also solved the two rebellious families by the way.

Coupled with Yang Zhao's talent, Yang Guang would really have the possibility to go south.

"Mr. Feng Ming, this opportunity is rare, you must not let it go!"

Putting away his thoughts, Mao Wenshen cupped his hands.

"Well, reply to Liang Gong Xiao Xian immediately."

Li Zitong ordered after nodding.

"promise."

Mao Wenshen took the lead.

Leave the hall immediately and ask someone to reply immediately.

After finishing these, Li Zitong ordered the army to prepare, and it is best to plan for the Sui Dynasty to go out.

"The opportunity for revenge has come!"

Wu Yunzhao's fighting spirit was also mobilized.

He had a grudge with the Sui family, and this grudge was precisely because of the death of the loyal and filial king Wu Jianzhang.

It's just that Wu Yunzhao didn't know that there was something else hidden about this matter.

He put all the hatred on Yang Guang.

Joining Li Zitong is also to deal with Yang Guang this day.
