Chapter 12 The Change of Renshou Palace (4)

"Grandson pays homage to the emperor and grandfather!"

Yang Zhao knelt down in front of Yang Jian's sickbed. Yang Jian was in good spirits at this time. Although his body still couldn't move, his eyes were bright. He pointed to the couch next to him and signaled his grandson to sit down.

Yang Zhao's obesity made many people dislike him, but Yang Jian liked this fat grandson very much, thinking that he was generous and kind, and was quite like himself. At that time, Yang Guang wanted to make his second son the crown prince, but was scolded by Yang Jian. It was Yang Jian's decision that made Yang Zhao gain the status of the prince, and Yang Zhao also felt deeply moved by his grandfather.

Yang Zhao sat down and held the hand of the emperor's grandfather. The weakness of the emperor's grandfather made him cry. Yang Jian patted his hand gently and whispered: "I'm crazy grandson, the cycle of heaven and earth will eventually lead to death. Don't be sad. Say something that makes my grandfather happy."

Yang Zhao nodded and forced a smile and said, "Does the emperor's grandfather still remember Yang Yuanqing? He is the grandson of Yang Taipu. Before the 19th year of Kaihuang, he saved the emperor's grandfather outside the Xi Neiyuan. Do you still remember?"

"I remember, I heard that he made a lot of contributions in Mobei."

Yang Zhao put the package Yang Yuanqing gave him on his knees and smiled and said, "This is what he asked me to transfer to the emperor's grandfather. Does the emperor's grandfather know what this is?"

"You said!" Yang Jian said with a smile.

"This is the head of the Western Turkic Buga Khan, who was killed by him on the battlefield with his own hands, and he offered it to the emperor's grandfather."

Yang Jian's eyes lit up. Datou has always been his biggest concern. If Datou is killed, the Western Turks will inevitably split. This news made Yang Jian ecstatic. He struggled to sit up. Several eunuchs next to him quickly helped him up and put a chuáng quilt behind him.

At this time, a strange luster appeared on Yang Jian's face, and his cheeks turned red like wine, which made Yang Zhao frightened. He hurriedly supported the emperor's grandfather, "Grandfather, you don't matter!"

Yang Jian sat up and was already very struggling. He panted and said: "The Turkic situation has been a big trouble in my heart for nearly twenty years. This news is the happiest thing for me. I want to see him in person. I said back then that he will make achievements for me, the Great Sui Dynasty."

Yang Jian immediately said to the eunuch next to him: "Tell me my order and announce Yang Yuanqing to come and see you immediately."

Yang Jian shivered and slowly opened the lid of the box. The box was full of lifelike Datou's head. Yang Jian squinted his eyes and smiled, "Datou, I didn't expect you to be today!"

He put down the lid of the box and suddenly felt a burst of angina pectoris. He held the xiōng chamber down. The luster on his face quickly faded and began to turn pale. Yang Zhao was so scared that he quickly supported him. Yang Jian waved his hand in pain, "Go away, I want to rest!"

Yang Zhao hurriedly stood up and shouted to the outside world: "Imperial Doctor! Imperial Doctor!"

Several imperial physicians rushed in. They helped Yang Jian lie down. Yang Jian suddenly shouted, "I'm going to kill me!"

His eyes turned dark and he fainted. Yang Zhao was so shocked that he covered his mouth, and his eyes were filled with fear. The gloss on the face of the emperor's grandfather just now was a rebirth, right?

An imperial physician stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, the emperor fainted yesterday, so let him rest, we will try our best to rescue him, Your Highness will go down first!"

Yang Zhao nodded and stepped back. He walked out of the door with difficulty. Two guards hurriedly supported him. Yang Zhao suddenly remembered something and said to the guard: "Please help me to see my father."

Yang Yuanqing did not realize the strange appearance of the two former crown princes Yang Yong, but Yang Zhao, King Jin, realized that it was abnormal for Yang Yong to appear first, and it also appeared twice at the same time. How could the father tolerate him being so free?

Yang Zhao was suspicious and immediately rushed to see his father Yang Guang. In the room, he told his father about this. Yang Guang was reading a book. His son's words immediately stunned him. Two Yang Yongs appeared. What does this mean?

He walked a few steps in the room with his hands behind his back, and suddenly he stopped, and an unexpected fear came to him, and his back suddenly burst into cold sweat.

"Is there another fake Yang Yong successful?"

Yang Guang suddenly realized that there was a huge plan hidden here. Could it be that Yang Yong was not crying and turning the tables, but wanted to carry out a palace coup, seize this last opportunity to overthrow himself? Retake the throne.

This must be the case. If there is a fake Yang Yong, it means that they have planned it for a long time. The real Yang Yong should have sneaked into Renshou Palace three days ago. The one who is about to see his father is the fake Yang Yong. They know that they will order Yuwen Shu to intercept Yang Yong.

Sweat beads rolled down Yang Guang's forehead. He didn't know if it was too late and whether it was too late.

"Zhao'er, how many shìguards did you bring?" Yang Guang suddenly turned around and asked Yang Zhao.

"Report to my father, my son brought two hundred people."

Yang Guang quickly calculated in his mind that he had 800 shì Guards in other palaces below, plus 200 of his eldest sons, a total of 1,000. There were 3,000 shì Guards in the inner palace of Renshou Palace. If these 3,000 people had been controlled by Liu Shu and Yuan Yan, the situation would be quite unfavorable to him.

Yang Zhao had guessed that the danger had appeared, and he was secretly shocked. Could it be that uncle would have to make a desperate bet in the end?

"Father, son-in-law advises the father to leave Renshou Palace immediately."

"No!" Yang Guang shook his head decisively, "I must never leave at this critical moment. If I leave, they will forge an edict to depose me. Whoever can grab my father will win now!"

Yang Guang felt that he had made a mistake. He thought of everything, but he did not expect that Liu Shu, Yuan Yan and others would take risks at the last moment and launch a palace coup.

At this time, he was very passive. He was in the open and the other party was in the dark. The other party knew him, but he knew nothing about the other party. More importantly, he was not prepared enough, had poor information, and could not get foreign aid.

Yang Guang knew that he had to control Renshou Palace. At this critical moment, he had to count on Yang Su, Yuwen Shu and others. He pondered for a moment, took out his gold medal and handed it to Yang Zhao and said, "You go down the mountain to find Yang Su immediately, and ask him to lead my Eastern Palace Shiì Guard to arrest Liu Shu and Yuan Yan first, and then go up the mountain to replace the garrison, and take your mother away together."

Yang Zhao dragged his heavy body to find his mother. Yang Guang was restless in the room. Over the years, he had been charged with Luo and wanted to kill his eldest brother Yang Yong, but his father was not sure. Not only was he not sure, but he also reused Liu Shu, Yuan Yan, Yuan Zhou and others who supported Yang Yong, especially the son-in-law Liu Shu, who was appointed as the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of War. He was powerful for a while. This pair of Yang Guang was stuck in his throat. Yang Yong was always like a thorn, nailed to his back. He always felt that something would happen sooner or later. Unexpectedly, at this most critical moment, they finally took action.

He felt very angry. The official in charge of guarding the Hawk Dog House was his confidant Zhao Ruren. Even this person was bribed by Liu Shu. Who else could he trust?

Yang Guang forced himself to calm down. Now he could only bet. He bet that not all the palace guards were bribed by Liu Shu and others.

"Your Highness, Annu is urgently requesting a meeting!"

Yang Guang was shocked and hurriedly said, "Let him in!"

The little eunu Annu rushed in crying, "Your Highness, the Lord, the Lord has broken down."

It was like a bolt from the blue. The news shocked Yang Guang. After a while, he grabbed An Nu's robe and shouted: "Have the news been spread?"

Annu was so scared that he shook his head. "The imperial physicians were so scared that they dared not say that even Concubine Chen was hidden, and they didn't know what to do."

Yang Guang was in a mess. He felt that there were so many things to do. Everything was extremely urgent, but he didn't know what to do. But Yang Guang was the prince after all. In his panic, he still thought of the most critical thing - the father's military talisman!

He pushed An Nu away and hurried to his father's bedroom. At this time, Yang Guang was anxious and turned from running quickly to trotting. He could no longer care about crying out his father's death. At this critical moment of life and death, he had only one idea to seize his father's military talisman first. If he was taken away by Concubine Chen, he would have to end his situation!

Running out of the corridor, in front of him was the bedroom of his father Yang Jian. Yang Guang slowed down and tried his best to show his calm expression. Although he brought eight hundred Eastern Palace guards, they could not enter the Renshou Palace and could only wait at the foot of the mountain. In the palace, Yang Guang had only one personal eunuch to take care of his daily life, and there were four personal guards, but the four personal guards could not leave the Beidou Palace at all.

Yang Guang quickly thought about countermeasures in his mind. He had to find excuses to deceive the guards, otherwise he would not be able to enter the palace of his father. However, no matter how he thought, he could not find an excuse. Although he was the crown prince and without the summoned by his father, he could not enter the palace of his father at will. This was the most tightly defended.

In the small square where Yang Guang walked to, this was the entrance to Datong Palace. Yang Guang saw a burly young officer standing in front of the steps. He looked like a shì guard in the palace, but like a border general. He thought, "Can it be Yang Yuanqing?"

Yang Guang just heard his son Yang Zhao say that his father must be summoning Yang Yuanqing. Yang Guang's eyes suddenly lit up. Yang Yuanqing's unexpected appearance made him feel like he had caught a life-saving wood in the turbulent sea. Yang Guang needed a brave general next to him at this time. Yang Yuanqing was the grandson of Yang Su. Isn't this the sword given to him by God?

Yang Guang was very happy, "Yuan Qing!" He shouted and walked forward quickly.
