Chapter 206: Li Yuan faints, Cao Cao has a headache

Emperor Sui looked at the calm lake and did not immediately respond to Gao Yang's proposal. Instead, he asked: "Gao Yang, what kind of person do you think the person behind the scenes will be?"

Gao Yang replied: "Weichen thinks that the other party can win over Du Xiao, Miao Fei and Gong Xuesong so that they will not fear life and death. This person's identity must be noble first, otherwise how can they be convinced. Secondly, if the Khitan breaks through Huangya Pass and drives straight into the pass, then if this person wants to rebel, he must have prestige and even force."

"Haha, after saying this, there are only a handful of people who meet the requirements!" Emperor Sui asked with a smile.

Gao Gong nodded and said, "I can really count it, and each one is extremely noble."

Although the two did not say it clearly, there were only a handful of people who met the conditions. Except for the Emperor of Sui, the first ones were the princes and then the princes.

Not counting princes such as Yang Shuang, the only kings who survived the battle for the throne with the Sui Emperor were Teng Yang Zan and the King of Wei Yang Shuang.

Yang Zan and Emperor Sui were the same brothers. When Emperor Sui fought for the throne, Yang Zan was not old and did not participate in the battle for the throne. When he became an adult, he fell off his war horse and broke his spine. He could only sit in a wheelchair and live in an easy-to-understanding manner for many years.

King Yang Shuang of Wei will enjoy it. He lives in Yangzhou City, with the romance and romance, and the famous Prince Xiaoyao.

In addition to these two princes, there are four princes, who are all royal relatives, and they followed the Sui Emperor to conquer the world and were named princes. Although the Sui Emperor did not do anything to cook the cunning rabbit and the lack of dogs, he still took back the military power of these princes, leaving them with the reputation of being a prince but without real power.

Therefore, it is difficult to ensure that these princes are not angry.

At this time, Emperor Sui responded to Gao Bing's proposal and said: "I want to use those spies, including King Teng, King Wei and the spies in the palaces of the four princes. I want to find out who wants to take my world!"

"Yes!" Gao Feng replied immediately.

At this moment, the fish mark floating on the water sank into the water. Emperor Sui quickly pulled up the fishing rod and could sense the big fish in the water.

"Haha, I'm on the fish!"

The Emperor of Sui started to snatch fish, and in a short while, he caught a golden koi. The koi got on the shore and began to sway.

"Gaofeng, this koi was thinking about leaping on the dragon gate, but unfortunately she found out that there was no dragon gate, but it was dangerous." Emperor Sui said with a smile.

Gao Yang heard the voice-over of Emperor Sui and nodded in agreement. Others did not know His Majesty's methods, Gao Yang felt like a mirror. Even if Huangya Pass was lost, the Sui Dynasty would not be in chaos. It would just take some time to pack it up.

Putting the koi into the wooden barrel, the Sui Emperor waved his hand and the two sat down again.

"Tell me about the situation of the neighboring country." Emperor Sui asked.

Gao Bing immediately sat upright and said, "Your Majesty, that's the empress to talk about the Tang Kingdom first. Judging from the latest information sent, the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the Qin King Li Shimin have reached the point where the competition in the court is second, and they already have the intention of fighting each other. Moreover, the Tang Emperor Li Yuan also realized the sense of crisis. Originally, Li Yuan supported Li Shimin to balance the crown prince Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng was also quite talented and capable, not a mediocre person. Unfortunately, Li Yuan was afraid that the crown prince was powerful, but ignored Li Shimin's ambitions. This was a tiger who wanted to occupy the mountain and become the king, not an obedient dog. Unfortunately, Li Yuan hesitated for too long, and Li Shimin could not lose his head."

"Now the Tang Dynasty is clearly divided. The civil ministers support the crown prince and the military generals support the Qin King. Therefore, since the Sui and Tang dynasties formed an alliance, the Tang Emperor Li Yuan used the alliance to seize Li Shimin's military power. Although there were certain results, the effect was not good. According to the opinions of the weak ministers, their fight will become more and more intense. The longer they delayed, the more beneficial it would be to the Great Sui Dynasty!"

Emperor Sui laughed and said, "The Emperor Tang is indecisive, which is his shortcomings. He thought he could control Li Shimin, but he never expected that his son was very capable. Then again, Li Shimin is indeed very outstanding. Although I did not see it with my own eyes, judging from the information collected, once he ascended the throne, he would be a wise ruler. Prince Li Jiancheng of Tang was also good, but there was a huge difference in the end. From this point, we can see that Emperor Tang Li Yuan was too greedy. If he chose the heir, he naturally had to choose the best candidate, so that the Tang Dynasty could have successors. But Li Yuan was afraid that his son would seize his throne and start suppressing it. I can assert that one day, the throne of the Tang Dynasty would need a killing to choose who would be the final winner."

After a pause, the Emperor Sui sighed: "If I had such an excellent son, I would definitely be made the crown prince and trained carefully!"

Gao Bing said: "Your Majesty's princes also have their own advantages, not inferior to Li Shimin!"

"Tsk...you, tell lies with your eyes open." Emperor Sui glared at Gao Bing, and then said, "Yang Yong was kind and filial, but his strategy and intelligence were mediocre. King Jin was both civil and military, but his mind was too deep. King Qin, King Yue, and King Han were not worth mentioning, so it was difficult to become a great man. King Wei was good in literary talent, but the one who relied on the world was not literary talent. As for King Ming... I knew him well before, but since I deposed his position as the crown prince, I found that he had made great progress, and there were even some things that I couldn't see through. It was quite interesting. None of them could compare with Li Shimin."

Gao Yang listened quietly, but he didn't dare to talk about the prince.

Emperor Sui sighed lightly and asked Gao Yang to continue speaking.

Gao Yong said, "Your Majesty, the number one spy who was placed in the Tang Dynasty back then has already sat in the expected position and can take action at any time."

"Very good! This move has been brewing for so long, and finally it is time to gain. I will immediately reduce my contact with him and avoid revealing his identity." Emperor Sui immediately said: "This is my last move to check and balance the Tang Dynasty. You must not lose."

"I understand."

Gao Yang also sighed in his heart that this secret chess has been in action for ten years, and once it breaks out, it will definitely cause a severe blow to the Tang Dynasty.

After talking about the Tang Dynasty, Gao Bing introduced the situation of Wei State: "Your Majesty, the information sent by Wei State shows that Emperor Cao Cao of Wei is still training sailors, making warships, and preparing for crossing the river attack. Now Wei State has 150,000 naval troops and tens of thousands of warships. Emperor Wei is eyeing him and will attack at any time."

Speaking of Emperor Wei Cao Cao, Emperor Sui sneered: "Old thief Cao could not take over Shu Kingdom, so he wanted to go north to take over the Great Sui Dynasty and realize his hegemony. He regarded the Great Sui Dynasty as a soft persimmon. Not to mention the 150,000 naval army and 300,000 naval army crossing the river, I am not worried!"

Emperor Sui was indeed not worried.

The Yangtze River is a natural danger, not a flat river. Once they attack and set foot on the territory of the Sui Kingdom, they will reach the territory of the Great Sui Kingdom. If they are not careful, they may be surrounded and suffer heavy losses.

Unless the Wei State has great power and can directly force more than 500,000 troops to crush them directly, there may be a chance of winning.

"By the way, how about Lao Zhe Cao's brain disease?" Emperor Sui thought of this and asked immediately.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "In terms of intelligence, it seems to be getting worse and worse. The imperial physician was helpless and even issued a recruitment order. Whoever can treat brain diseases for Emperor Wei will be directly granted a marquis."

"Famoushou? Haha, it seems that Lao Zhe Cao has a very good brain disease!" Emperor Sui looked gloating.

After laughing, Emperor Sui said seriously: "Send someone to keep an eye on him. Never let Emperor Wei find a famous doctor. Let his brain disease continue to hurt."

"I understand." Gao Feng replied.

At this time, another fish took the hook, and the Emperor of Sui caught another koi, but this time it was white.

On the other hand, Gao Feng's fishing rod has not responded for a long time.

Could it be that the koi in the imperial garden will flatter you, otherwise why would you keep biting Your Majesty’s hook? Or maybe someone hides in the water and hangs fish on Your Majesty’s hook?

Forget it, I can't take it with me anyway.

Gao Yang continued to reply: "Your Majesty, the spies sent to Shu Kingdom have just stabilized, and the distance is relatively long. It is useless to send useful information back."

"It's okay! Shu Kingdom and the Great Sui Kingdom do not border directly. The purpose of sending secret agents in the past was to get rid of the hatred between Wei and Shu Kingdom. These two countries originally hated each other, and the border border wars were frequent, so most of the Wei Kingdom's troops were in the west. This also reduced our pressure." The Sui Emperor responded.

Gao Gong nodded, and then reported the situation of the Khitan and Turks one by one.

Only by doing such a report once a month can you know yourself and your enemy be able to win a hundred battles.

Similarly, you have a spy, and the other party has a spy.

Gao Bing also mentioned the progress of investigating spies stationed in the Great Sui Dynasty between the Tang and Wei countries. Before he knew it, the monarch and ministers talked until evening.

Then, Gao Yang left the palace.

After returning to his home, Gao Yang immediately summoned his confidants and asked them to inform them, and began to use the spies hidden in various prefectures to investigate the mysterious behind-the-scenes person.
