Great Sui God of War, great strength at the beginning!

Chapter 236
Half a month later, Luoyang City can be described as extremely lively, with vendors coming and going, as well as bustling crowds, especially many strange-looking foreigners can be seen on the street.

Today is the Luoyang Poetry Fair, which is also the first cultural event held after the establishment of the Great Wu Empire, and it must be lively.

"Your Majesty, at present, the twenty-odd small foreign countries that have surrendered to the Great Wu Empire have sent envoys to come to my Great Wu, and I have already arranged for them."

Above the imperial court, the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple played the Tao.

"Well, since these countries have surrendered to me, Dawu, then my Dawu will definitely not treat them badly and arrange them properly!"

Wang Chen said lightly.

At the beginning, there were seventy or eighty dependent countries of the Sui Dynasty, and now there are only a dozen or so who can choose to submit to themselves. As for the other countries that provoked them, they either colluded with Li Tang to divide the territory of the Sui Dynasty, or some small countries chose not to Blend.

Wang Chen didn't take any action against those sloppy countries. After he cleaned up Li Shimin, none of those small countries that fell into the rocks could escape!
"Yang Qing, Zhang Qing, how are the preparations for the Luoyang Poetry Fair going?"

Wang Chen looked at Yang Gongren and Zhang Jiuling and asked.

The two looked at each other, and then Yang Gongren stood up, saluted first, and then said:
"Qizou Your Majesty, the preparations for the Luoyang Poetry Fair have been completed three days ago, and it will officially start at the end of the You hour tonight. Of course, your Majesty is required to preside over the Poetry Fair in person!"

"No need, I will go to this poetry meeting naturally, but I won't host it, Yang Qing, I will leave this poetry meeting to you, and Zhang Qing, the two of you should be in charge together."

After Wang Chen waved his hand, he responded lightly.

"This!?"

Yang Gongren was surprised, this poetry meeting was not only to select talents for Dawu, but also to enhance Wang Chen's tall emperor image in the hearts of scholars all over the world, and to publicize Wang Chen's majesty.

But if Yang Gongren does it now, then the No. 1 those scholars see is naturally Yang Gongren himself, and Yang Gongren naturally feels a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty, I feel that..."

"You don't need to think that I think, let's just settle it down. This Luoyang Poetry Fair will be handed over to you two, Yang Qing and Zhang Qing. I am very relieved that you two will handle things!"

Wang Chen smiled slightly, a puzzling smile.

"Retire!"

Wang Chen stood up, and without waiting for the courtiers to salute, he walked out of the Golden Luan Hall, leaving the extremely confused Yang Gongren and the courtiers behind.

"Hahaha, congratulations Yang Shangshu, Yang Shangshu, you are truly valued by His Majesty, and you were actually chosen by His Majesty to preside over the Luoyang Poetry Association. I really envy you!"

"Yes, yes, in the future, I will rely on Yang Shangshu for your support and support!"

"Yang Shangshu, a batch of high-quality agates from the Western Regions came to the lower official's mansion today, or..."

"Yang Shangshu..."

"My lords, today is just your Majesty's affirmation of the old man's work, so I handed over the Luoyang Poetry Association to the old man. This is a test for the old man. The old man is afraid, so the old man has to think about it!"

"I don't need to say anything else. After this Luoyang Poetry Fair is over, I will hold a banquet in person. All adults must come!"

Yang Gongren was very humble and lowered his figure, cupped his fists at the officials present, and smiled heartily and decently.

Seeing that Yang Gongren said this, everyone said no more, they continued to compliment and left one after another.

Zhang Jiuling, who stood aside and didn't speak all the time, looked at Yang Gongren's move and nodded slightly.

Xuanzheng Hall

"His Majesty!"

"Huh? Zhang Qing is here, how about it?"

Seeing Zhang Jiuling coming, Wang Chen closed the folder in his hand without any surprise, and asked with a smile.

"Yang Shangshu didn't use this to win over the officials, but instead he advanced and retreated in a certain way, which is very extraordinary."

"Hahaha, I've been an official for decades, if Yang Gongren doesn't have this awareness, I'm really sorry for the hat on his head!"

Wang Chen shook his head slightly, then picked up the booklet and read it again.

"Generally speaking, there will definitely be factional disputes above the imperial court. I'm not afraid of these, and I don't want to care about them. It's just that I'm very curious about what they want to do."

Wang Chen said with a smile again.

Generally speaking, when Yang Gongren wins over courtiers, there is only one purpose, that is to gain a stronger background for the Yang family, and there is no threat at all.

"Your Majesty, the Yang family has no successors. It is normal for Yang Shangshu to win over the courtiers. Today, Yang Shangshu refused the invitation of all the ministers, but he took the initiative to invite them. This is to show his loyalty to His Majesty! It can be regarded as advancing by retreating, he is betting His Majesty that you will take care of his Yang family."

Zhang Jiuling said lightly, as if he had seen Yang Gongren through.

Wang Chen nodded again.

"The influence of the Yang family is indeed not small. For the next two generations after Yang Gongren, the highest official position should not be mentioned too high. Of course, they cannot be suppressed, just eliminate their influence."

"Of course, if the members of the Yang family are smart enough, it's time to restrain their influence among the scholars in the world."

Wang Chen smiled slightly.

"Zhang Qing, all the Naxian halls in the north have been converted into schools. If you want to be an official in the court, you must go through the school."

Wang Chen wants scholars to become officials through the academy, just to brainwash those students in the academy and to be loyal to Dawu's brainwashing.

It is also to make those people virtuous, how can a person without virtue be worthy of being an official?

Besides, it is a disaster for an empire if the mind of a wise man is full of rebellion and self.

"My minister understands what His Majesty means."

"Well, this time Luoyang Poetry Fair, I'll leave it to Yang Qing to host it, and you can do the rest!"

After Wang Chen finished speaking, he threw the imperial gold medal prepared in advance to Zhang Jiuling.

Zhang Jiuling was summoned by Wang Chen himself, and his loyalty to Wang Chen was as high as full value, not to mention betrayal, even disobedience to himself was completely impossible.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

Although Zhang Jiuling was summoned, he was still a living person with his own independent thinking. Now that he had gained Wang Chen's trust, he was extremely excited. He immediately fell to his knees and saluted Wang Chen.

"Well, let's get back together, tonight, you go and discuss with Yang Qing what to do, I leave the full power to you!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Jiuling dragged the gold medal given by Wang Chen with both hands and walked out of the hall.

But Wang Chen stood up and walked towards the inner hall.

"Yu'er, Xiuning"

As soon as Wang Chen came to the harem, he saw Li Xiuning half lying on a soft chair with a big belly, and several maids beside her were serving her meticulously.Yang Yu'er was sitting beside the girl.

"My Xiuning, why are you always disobedient and just want to run out?"

Wang Chen is also the same, Li Xiuning doesn't like to be raised in the house, she feels that there is no sunlight, she is very unhappy, she insists on coming out, even though her belly is already big, and she is due to give birth in less than half a month, it is still the same, but Fortunately, Li Xiuning has practiced martial arts, and her physical fitness is extremely good. Otherwise, Wang Chen would really not have agreed to let Li Xiuning run out.

"Husband."

The second daughter Yang Yuer was also overjoyed to see Wang Chen coming.

Yang Yuer's two daughters are in the harem, so there are only the two of them, of course there are many maidservants, there are so many houses in the harem, Wang Chen just let them choose two rooms close to each other, so that they can be companions.

"Husband, why don't you find two sisters again? You see, we two sisters are in this harem, and we can't even gather anyone by playing cards."

Li Xiuning pouted.

Wang Chen looked at the big belly woman Li Xiuning with a clever mouth, and couldn't help but walked up to touch Li Xiuning's head.

"You two, my wife doesn't want my master to marry too many, but you two are better off. Do I have to marry two more?"

Wang Chen said with a smile, his tone was full of helplessness and indulgence.

"I discussed it with sister Xiuning. Look, sister Mu Guiying, and the eldest grandson Wuyou of the eldest grandson Shilang's family. Isn't this exactly four people?!"

Yang Yuer counted on her fingers, a little cute.

"Eldest grandson worry-free?"

Wang Chen was taken aback, why did Yang Yuer mention the eldest grandson Wuyou, could it be that Yang Yuer knew about what happened that day?

Huh?Why does Wang Chen always feel like he was caught and raped in bed?
"The younger sister of Changsun Shilang's family, Changsun Wuyou, Xiuning used to be a good friend with her. At first, she was going to marry Shimin, but because of that incident, my father regretted the marriage, which caused the eldest grandson to marry Shimin. Worry-free and not married yet, but my husband, let me tell you, my eldest grandson sister is really good-looking, and she is really an outstanding person!"

Li Xiuning is also cute and authentic, Wang Chen really feels that after these two daughter-in-laws are pregnant, his IQ has dropped a bit! ?
"Okay, okay, I have my own opinion, you two, just stay well, if the harem is boring, you can go out of the palace to have fun."

Wang Chen smiled and said to the two women.

Afterwards, Wang Chen accompanied Yang Yuer and Li Xiuning for half an hour before leaving the palace.

Luoyang Imperial City, Shenwu Street

"Your Majesty, where are we going?"

Lu Bing, dressed in casual attire, followed Wang Chen and asked.

"Hey, Lu Bing, before I came out today, I told you that if you want to call me a young master, you will call me your majesty. How can I understand the people's sentiments and play around?"

Wang Chen held the folding fan he invented in his hand, put away the folding fan, and lightly slapped Lu Bing on the shoulder.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Young Master! Wei, I understand."

Lu Bing immediately changed his words.

"Well, that's about the same. Today, my son is leaving the palace. Naturally, I have my thoughts. By the way, have the Jinyiwei inside and outside Luoyang city been settled?"

Wang Chen stopped and asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, son, you can rest assured that the three thousand Jinyi Guards are all dispatched tonight, and they are all the elite of the Jin Yiwei, not only the Jin Yiwei, but also General Yuwen who personally led an army of [-] to patrol Luoyang City. Don't even think about the flies. Fly in!"

Lu Bing said confidently.

"But, my son is not afraid of chaos in Luoyang City. If Li Shimin really dares to come to Luoyang City to do something, I think it's pretty good!"

Wang Chen said with a smile.

"Hey, Prince, you're here too!"

While Wang Chen and Lu Bing were still discussing, suddenly, a loud voice came.

As soon as Wang Chen heard this voice, he immediately knew who it was.

"Miss Yang, Miss Changsun."

Wang Chen bowed his hands to the two girls and said with a smile.

Yang Lian's dress is very simple, but she still can't hide her pretty face, jumping up and down, which is quite escaping in this feudal society.

As for the eldest grandson Wuyou, he was wearing a goose yellow long dress, a bright jade hairpin on his head, and a yellow corset on his waist. He looked graceful and graceful, extremely bright and charming.

Li Shimin is confused, such a strange woman actually likes that Yang Ruyi?

There was also a ripple in Wang Chen's heart.

"Seeing that the Luoyang Poetry Fair is about to start, I thought you weren't coming!"

Yang Lian said very directly, with her hands on her hips, very heroic.

Wang Chen is also a little uncomfortable. He hasn't seen such a woman for many years. The son of Changsun Wuji is afraid that he will be a strict wife in the future.

"I'm late because I have some family affairs at home, so I can't afford to compensate the two girls!"

Wang Chen smiled and bowed his hands to the two daughters, looking extremely generous, his gestures and gestures were full of the temperament of a superior, which was extremely eye-catching.

Changsun Wuyou also noticed this, and looked at Wang Chen very curiously.

Wang Chen was originally handsome, but today he was wearing a white embroidered brocade jacket, a white folding fan in his hand, a crown jade on his head, and a Wada beautiful jade on his waist.

"Okay, okay, the poetry meeting is about to start in a quarter of an hour, don't stand here stupidly, if it weren't for this girl's knowledge, you would have nowhere to go!"

Yang Lian couldn't stand the collision of eyes between the two, and immediately pulled Changsun Wuyou back.

Wang Chen smiled dumbly, and followed them both with Lu Bing.

"It turns out that His Majesty came here in disguise for this girl?!"

Lu Bing said with a strange smile.

"Why, my two wives want two more sisters, why can't I let me find them myself?"

Wang Chen glanced at Lu Bing, and said lightly.

"Your Majesty, you are the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, the co-lord of the world, and everything in the Great Wu Empire belongs to your Majesty, of course there is no problem!"

Lu Bing immediately made a rainbow fart.

Wang Chen smiled dumbly, and he had to admit in his heart that being flattered really made him feel happy.
