Chapter 1 Nemesis

On January 23, 2018, Luoyang, several carriages left the south gate under the cavalry protection and advanced southeast along the official road. Li Gang, who was sitting in the carriage, was talking with Yu Zheng Du Shijun who was heading south together.

'.

"The King of Xiyang's words and deeds may be slightly out of line, so don't be surprised by Wen Ji."

"I don't know how extreme the truth is that the 'slightly out of order'?"

Du Shijun coughed dryly when he heard this, and then asked, "Do you know the origin of the 'one-legged bronze man'?"

"The one-legged bronze man originated from rumors, telling the story of King Xiyang's decisive battle with King Chen Shuling of the Shixing King of Chen Guo in Xiyang City."

Li Gang twisted his beard and told what he had learned. The name of King Yuwen Wen of Xiyang, the one-legged bronze man, is now known to even Jinyang in the north. Merchants from all over the world who traveled from south to south and spread this matter everywhere as strange stories.

"Then can you tell the manifesto of the King of Xiyang to Chen Shujian, the King of Changsha, Chen State?"

“I heard something.”

“How does it feel?”

"There is no literary talent." Li Gang said this, and seemed to have realized something, bowed to Du Shijun: "Thank you for your righteous thoughts."

Du Shijun smiled and waved his hand: "Where is it, King Qi has high hopes for Wen Ji. It is Wen Ji who can be the chief minister of the Xiyang Palace."

Speaking of this, he added: "In fact, King Xiyang is a good person and has made great achievements in governing the military and the people. Huangzhou has the current situation thanks to King Xiyang's hard work."

"In a few years, the population of Huangzhou has doubled several times. Water conservancy has been built, and the Laijiang River dam has been built. There are thousands of hectares of new wasteland in Huangzhou. Under the rule of the King of Xiyang, the people live and work in peace. This matter is also known to the court."

Li Gang took over the conversation and the situation he learned was also Yu Wen Wen's "good" side. Since King Qi and Yu Wen Liang recommended him to be the chief minister of the Xiyang Palace, the intention was probably to be able to check it at critical moments.

"The King of Xiyang is not an unreasonable person. Except for being out of character occasionally, he is easy to talk to on weekdays. If King Qi was not satisfied, the prince would have been able to control him."

This is a heartfelt statement. If you can control the King Yuwen of Xiyang, you will be one, and the Prince of Qi, Yuwenming, you will be half. As for the others, you will be helpless.

The so-called control does not mean stopping Yuwen Wen from doing evil and doing things, or stopping him from doing whatever he wants and not abide by the law. On the contrary, Yuwen Wen's official voice is very good and he does not act misconduct.

This Yuwen Erlang has normal character, but occasionally he is a little out of tune. For example, the level of the proclamation was shocking to Chen Shujian, the King of Changsha, Chen State.

Is it Yuwen Wen illiterate? Of course not. This person is not only literate, but also has scholars around him. No matter how bad he is, he can find a rural scholar to draft a manifesto. As a result, this person is just going to do whatever he wants, which makes people helpless.

Yuwen Wen has been named the king, which does not represent himself, but the image of the royal family. If someone criticizes the royal family for being unrestrained, what should we do?

So you have to keep an eye on it. Once something is wrong, you have to take care of it. The only person who can control it must leave Shannan.

Before this year, Yuwen Liang, as the Minister of State of Shannan Road, had been in the 6th century, so he could take charge of Yuwen Wen, but now Yuwen Liang, as the governor of Yongzhou, must stay in Chang'an for a long time, or go to Yecheng for business.

Yu Wenming, who took over as the Minister of State of the Great Administration, still had many matters to deal with. It was impossible to keep an eye on Yu Wen Wen, and Yu Wen Wen shouldered the responsibility of guarding the eastern gate of Shandong and could not be transferred easily.

Yuwen Liang was afraid that this person who teased Chen Guo in Jiangnan would create another "decisive battle at the top of Xiyang" and would eventually cause trouble.

The court was about to have a comprehensive plan for the Sui State that retreated from Shu and did not want to cause trouble. If Yuwen Wen had arbitrarily initiated border quarrels, which affected the plan to pacify Shu and attracted the attention of the court and the public, it would be really hindering.

Now Yuwen Liang is working hard to win over all forces, hoping to establish a good image of the royal family. If Yuwen Wen does something wrong, he can't cut it with one knife, right?

A fierce horse needs to wear a bridle to be disciplined. Du Shijun knew that Yuwen Liang wanted to wear a bridle for Yuwen Wen, so he recommended Li Gang to be the chief minister of the Xiyang Palace, and to take care of it at critical moments.

It's time to take charge. When Du Shijun thought of Yuwen's "great achievements", he had a headache. He dared to question Yang Jian in the Chang'an Palace Hall if he wanted to rebel. Later, he could faint in the Yecheng Palace Hall and faint.

It is said that Yuwen Wen can chat and laugh when facing Prime Minister Yuchi alone. He is really brave and has good ability to be alone, but he is not at ease from time to time, which makes people dare not completely relieve themselves. Why is this person not as handsome as his brother?

"About the truth, I have a question. If it is inappropriate, please forgive me."

"Speaking."

"Is the King of Xiyang a good person?"

......

In Xiyang City, Xiyang Prince's Mansion, Yuwen Wen, who was depressed, was sitting opposite Yang Ji, who was also depressed. The tea on the table had been changed and changed, but they did not see each taking a sip.

Yuwen Wen's promotion to the King of Xiyang was a good thing. He could recruit officials from the prefecture and manage his own small sphere of influence. But now there is a problem, which lies with the prefecture officials.

According to the rules, the royal palace has a lecturer of Wang You, Wang Wang, and the prefectural chief Sima Silu is engaged in the subordinates of the Central Army, and Cao is a military officer. These are all serious staff members who allocated salaries by the court.

In addition to the formal guards, Yuwen Wen was about to be happy, but bad news came: the candidate for the head of the palace was Di Shiwen.

When Yuwen Wen thought of the morally clean-loving emperor who wanted to be his father's chief, he felt cold all over. Naturally, he strongly opposed it. He finally changed his father's mind and changed it to a more powerful one.

Li Gang, a man with an extinction aura!

This is not Li Gang who guarded Tokyo at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, but the famous "prince nemesis" in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Yuwen Wen regretted that he would rather face Di Shiwen than face this person.

Grade poisonous milk! A sip of milk can really kill people!

Li Gang, whose original name was Li Yuan, and whose courtesy name was Wenji, served as the assistant/teacher of the crown prince of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Yong, Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng and Li Chengqian. The fate of these three princes was later tragic. The two were deposed and one was killed, so Yuwen Wen did not want to end up the same fate.

Is Li Gang's character a problem? No, this person has first-class character and knowledge, otherwise, Yang Jian, Li Yuan and Li Shimin, who were emperors, would not, and let him be the teacher of his crown prince.

When Li Gang became an official, he joined the military service for the royal palace of Yuwen Xian, the king of Qi in Zhou. Later, Emperor Tianyuan Yuwen Yun wanted to kill Yuwen Xian and forced the assistant officer of the prince of Qi to confess Yuwen Xian's "rebellion". Li Gang refused to surrender.

Yuwen Xian was killed unjustly because Li Gang used a car to carry Yuwen Xian's body out of the palace. The assistants of the royal palace avoided it. Later, he was the only one who helped Yuwen Xian hold the coffin and cried until he was buried.

In the Sui Dynasty, Li Gang became the prince of Prince Yang Yong's prince, and various admonitions made Yang Yong extremely unhappy. Later, Yang Yong was deposed, and the prince's assistants were scolded by Yang Jian to death. Only Li Gang dared to refute, which made Yang Jian blame himself.

Because Li Gang always doesn't know the current affairs and does not understand the superior intentions, he chatters about advice all day long, so when Li Jiancheng and Li Chengqian were "resisted" by students. Of course, that was the original history. The one who wanted to boycott him in this era was Yuwen Wen.

"I... I am not the prince, so I will not be killed by him, right?" Yuwen Wen felt a little embarrassed. With this poisonous milk by his side, maybe he would die of milk.

"King, Li Gang is talented, virtuous and kind, and is a virtuous minister. His advice will not be without evidence, but naturally it makes sense."

"A person has hidden diseases but is afraid of doctors. The doctor refuses to treat them after he clicked them out. As a result, he became terminally ill. It is the doctor who said he is sick because he is sick. That's what you mean?"

"That's right, good medicine is bitter and honest. Li Gang is not a person who seeks fame and reputation. If he advises him in the future, then he will ask the king to correct him if he doesn't."

Yang Ji was also worried that Li Gang would "kill" Yu Wen Wen, but to be honest, he felt that Li Gang was unfair: If Yang Yong could listen to Li Gang, why would that happen?

Yuwen Wen pondered, actually he understood what Yang Ji said, but Li Gang's halo of "the prince's nemesis" is too cruel. Although he is not the prince, he must be careful not to be killed by poisonous grandma.

A fly flew past and flew around Yuwen's ear, buzzing so annoyingly. He suppressed his anger and slapped it to death.
