[Comprehensive] Wearing the martial arts world to be the emperor

The first thing Yan Jingbai did when he returned to the palace was not to summon the officials, nor to hold a banquet to celebrate, but to go to Empress Xiao.

Empress Xiao was born in the Xiao family of Lanling. She was the daughter of Xiao Kui, Emperor Xiaoming of the Western Liang Dynasty.

The eldest son, Yang Zhao, was named the prince in the first year of Daye. He was modest and lived a frugal and simple life. Unfortunately, he died young. He was only 23 years old when he died, and he was given the posthumous title of "Yuande".

The second son, Yang Hao, was named the king of Qi. He was arrogant, greedy and lustful, and was disgusted by Yang Guang.

The youngest son died early, and the only daughter, Nanyang Palace Master, was beautiful and virtuous, and married Yuwen Shiji, the son of Xu Guogong Yu Wenshu.

Although Yang Guang had a violent temper and valued female sex very much, he had a really good relationship with Empress Xiao, and he respected and loved her very much.

Whenever Yang Guang came back from a tour, the first thing he did was to visit Empress Xiao, and now Yan Jingbai was changed, of course it was no exception.

He sat in Empress Xiao's palace for an afternoon, tasted Empress Xiao's handicrafts, and then returned to his own palace.

Yan Jingbai didn't go to court for the next two days, and he didn't see anyone again. He claimed that he had traveled a long distance and needed to rest because of his poor health, but he was actually reading various materials and books.

Especially the customs and customs of various places, and the current situation of the Sui Dynasty.

Seeking his own government in his position, since he is already sitting in his current position, he naturally wants to do his best.

He doesn't know much about the history of the Sui Dynasty, but he still knows the general direction. Coupled with the materials he has seen in the past two days, he already has a rough idea in his mind.

The Sui Dynasty only existed for a short 37 years in the long history. The reason for its demise is naturally due to Yang Guang. The Sui Dynasty quickly came to an end.

But this is only one of them, and the other fundamental reason is because of the imperial examination system established by Yang Guang.

In the second year of Daye, Emperor Sui Yang established the Jinshi Department and established the imperial examination system. It mainly focused on political examination articles and selected outstanding talents. This gave many people from poor backgrounds the opportunity to participate in politics and become officials. The source of official career is no longer limited to aristocratic families. .

This is a good thing, it can select more and better talents, but it is also a disaster, because it touches the interests of the big clans and lays the seeds of disaster for future clan rebellions.

Yan Jingbai wanted to secure the throne and truly govern the Sui Dynasty, and the powerful families were his first target to eradicate.

Today, there are countless aristocratic families in the Sui Dynasty, but there are only four that can truly be called giants, the Dugu Clan and Yuwen Clan in Luoyang, the Song Clan in Lingnan and the Li Clan in Taiyuan.

Among them, the Dugu clan is the relative of Yang Guang's mother, Queen Dugu, the Yuwen clan is the in-law's family of Princess Nanyang, the head of the Li clan and Yang Guang are also cousins, and Li Yuan's mother and Queen Dugu are sisters.

But so what if there is a kinship relationship, the Dugu Clan betrayed him, Yu Wenhuaji personally killed him, Li Yuan and his son even overthrew his Great Sui General Shan and directly replaced him.

In Huangtu's hegemony, blood relationship is the most useless thing, it can't stop those wild ambitions, everything depends on means, only depends on the outcome.

Yan Jingbai looked at the night outside the window with his hands behind his back, and smiled quietly.

In the autumn of the 13th year of Daye, Emperor Sui's [-]th birthday, Wan Chao came.

The flow of people in Luoyang City was more than twice as high as usual, and it was a scene of prosperity.

The two youths who were busy in the world swept past like a whirlwind, walked hurriedly, headed straight to the deep palace, and no one dared to stop them along the way.

When turning through the arch, the short and stocky boy bumped into another person because he was walking too fast.

He is a man, and he is also a martial arts practitioner, so this attack is naturally not serious to him, but the other party does not have such good luck.

The man let out a soft cry, and fell straight to the back, but the voice was a woman.

The young man who didn't intend to move raised his eyebrows, and quickly took the opponent into his arms.

A faint fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, and his right hand frivolously slid across her slender waist, and his low voice was so magnetic and sweet that almost all women's legs softened, "How are you, girl?"

The woman's gentle face flushed red.

"Kou Zhong, you bastard! Let go of Miss Xiuning!" With a scolding sound, a black whip flew over instantly, avoided the woman, and whipped at the young man with incomparable precision.

Kou Zhong snorted, grabbed the woman's waist and pushed her lightly, then grabbed the whip that was whipped towards his face like lightning.

He grinned at the girl in the red dress, revealing two rows of white teeth, "Crazy girl! It's been a year since we haven't seen each other and you're still so hot, and you haven't married this year!"

Dugu Feng's eyes turned red with anger, she tugged at the whip but failed to pull it out, she simply discarded the handle of the whip, and pulled out the sword at her waist with a flick.

The flickering sword light struck him overwhelmingly.

Kou Zhong didn't dare to trust her, although Dugufeng was young, she was very intelligent. She was taught by her grandmother, You Chuhong, the number one master of the Dugu Clan since she was a child, and her martial arts skills are even more advanced than her uncle Dugu Sheng.

His toes were on point, his figure was tall, and the scimitar on his back was unsheathed in an instant, and the bright light was dazzling.

The swords collided, and there was a clear and long sound, and at this moment, an unhappy "stop" came from the side.

Hearing this, Xu Ziling, who had been secretly anxious, instantly raised the corners of his lips, and turned his head to follow the sound.

It was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, dressed in brocade clothes, rushing in surrounded by a large group of maids and guards.

His eyes are very black and round, like cat's eyes, but very majestic, even the rebellious such as Kou Zhong and the savage such as Dugufeng have to snort coldly and turn their heads away under his stare.

The woman on the side who was hit by Kou Zhong slightly bent her knees and bowed to salute, "Xiu Ning has met the grandson of the emperor."

"The princess doesn't need to be too polite." The emperor's grandson Yang Yu said to her politely, and then said to Dugu Feng: "Didn't you personally ask for orders to send Princess Li back to the post? Why are you fighting with others again?"

Dugu Feng's pretty face was frosty, and she snorted coldly: "It's not that some people are in the way, blocking this girl's way, I have to show him something, so that his eyes don't grow on the top of his head in the future."

Kou Zhong rolled his eyes when he heard that.

Yang Tong pursed his lips and smiled kindly, "I'm afraid I won't have a chance today. Grandpa wants to see him, why don't Miss Dugu come early next time?"

Dugu Feng rolled her eyes, stomped her feet and said, "It's cheap for you!" Then she dragged Li Xiuning away.

It wasn't until they were far away that Li Xiuning asked softly, "Who were those two people just now? How could they come and go freely in the palace, and they didn't even pay attention to Sister Dugu?"

The slender eyelashes trembled slightly, Dugufeng covered her lips and smiled lightly: "I can't compare with others! The one who has been silent is called Xu Ziling, and the annoying ghost is called Kou Zhong. They are adopted sons adopted by His Majesty. There is not much difference between the palace and a group of princes and sons, even worse, who dares to offend them!"

"Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling..." Li Xiuning was thoughtful.

"Hmph!" A cold voice sounded, and Yang Tong immediately lost his kindness in front of outsiders, and said mockingly, "Princess Li has traveled a long way, no matter how long your neck is, you won't be able to see it!"

Hearing this, Kou Zhong raised his eyebrows, he was not angry, but hooked his neck and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't need to be jealous."

"I'm jealous?" Yuanyuan's cat eyes widened, Kou Zhong's heart itched to see, and he really wanted to reach out and touch it.

But thinking of the possible consequences, he had no choice but to regretfully dismiss this idea, and instead said: "You are still young, and it is normal that you are not as attractive as me. In two years, there will definitely be girls who like you. "

Yang Tong opened his hand with a snap, looking at him wishing he could burn him to death.

He sneered and said: "Grandfather already knows the glorious deeds of Zhong Shao's fame, I hope you can still laugh later."

The corner of Kou Zhong's mouth twitched, and he reluctantly said, "Thank you for reminding me."

Yang Tong flicked his sleeves in a noble and glamorous manner, walked up to the snickering Xu Ziling, and said, "After seeing your grandfather, go to my place and cleanse you up."

After speaking, he left with a large group of clattering people.

Kou Zhong lay on Xu Ziling's body aggrieved, accusing him, "They are all his uncles, why does he only invite you and not me, it's not fair."

Xu Ziling bent his elbow and touched his stomach, and said helplessly, "If you hadn't been teasing him to get angry, he wouldn't have treated you like this."

"But don't you think he's cute when he's angry? Especially those round eyes, like a cat, make my heart itch." Kou Zhong said while walking with his arm around his shoulder.

Xu Ziling looked up at the sky, "If he hears these words, there will be another commotion."

"That's fun hahaha..."

Inside Guanwen Hall.

Both Pei Ju and Wei Zheng were there, and Pei Ju was leaning slightly to say something in a low voice.

Yan Jingbai was dressed in dark black uniform, standing solemnly in front of a huge map.

A few years have passed, and he has not seen the slightest sign of aging, and his whole body has become more majestic.

He had been listening quietly until the deep and pleasant voice subsided, and he said: "Don't worry about the affairs of Wagang Village, it's just a bunch of jumping clowns, I haven't paid attention to it yet." Lost Qin Qiongcheng A group of strong generals like Yao Jin, what fear does he have for Li Mi alone!

He flicked his sleeves, and continued: "To revolt, one must have followers to revolt. Although everyone in the Sui Dynasty cannot be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment, it is also the time to recuperate. It is simply courting death to climb out and rebel at this time. Li Mi is not stupid, he is not enough to be a threat for the time being! What worries me are the four great powers, how is the situation in the post house?"

Pei Ju was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "The Li Clan has arrived. Li Yuan came here in person, accompanied by his second son, third son, and his daughter. The Song Clan is still on the way, and the journey to Lingnan is far away. , according to the information we got, it seems that Song Que did not come, only his younger brother Song Zhi and his only son Song Shidao."

Yan Jingbai narrowed his eyes, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Song Que, the leader of the Song Clan, is extremely skilled in martial arts, a rare master in the world?"

Pei Ju was slightly taken aback, as if he didn't understand what the emperor meant, but he still said: "Yes! Song Que is a genius who created his own eight tactics of the Heavenly Sword, known as the 'Heavenly Sword'. Although he is not one of the three great masters , but his skill is enough to be as famous as the three great masters!"

"It's so powerful!" Yan Jingbai said inexplicably, and then suddenly said: "I once saw the duel between Fu Cailin, one of the three great masters, and the evil king Shi Zhixuan in Korea. Fu Cailin will not talk about it. That evil king Compared with Song Que, who is more powerful?"

Pei Ju hesitated and said: "Well, Shi Zhixuan is a master of the magic sect, Song Que is the best swordsman in the world, and the martial arts of the two should be between brothers."

Yan Jingbai shook his head, disapprovingly said: "That's not sure, I heard that the first place in the magic sect martial arts is a woman named Yinhou, and Shi Zhixuan can only be second. He can't even beat a woman, so it can be seen that he is better than Song Que is still a bit short."

Pei Ju was silent.

Looking at Pei Ju, who looked calm as usual, Yan Jingbai felt happy!

Don't accept it, don't feel comfortable, don't feel happy, choke you to death!
