The twentieth month of the twelfth year of the great cause, Luoyang!

In the solemn and majestic and magnificent Qianyang Hall of Ziwei Palace, the civil and military officials who stayed in the eastern capital have all arrived, and the meritorious generals who have quelled the rebellion are all there.

An angel from Jiangdu stood on the jade stone, opened the holy decree, and read aloud: "The edict said: Yang Tong, the king of Yue in the eastern capital, is both civil and military, loyal and brave, and has 40,000 weak brigades to break through the 200,000 Wagang rebels in Xingyang, leading the front of a hundred battles, and the enemy of Wanfu - he is crowned as the king of Qin, the champion general, and the secretary of the Hebei Dao Xingtai, and undertakes the power of the Wupin military general and the civil official of the county and county!" Reward Linshuo Palace for the Qin Palace, 100,000 taels of gold! (Note: deposed, degraded from official position; 陟, promoted to an official position. ）

For this reward, the ministers were a little dumbfounded.

Even Yang Tong himself was a little stunned, and even forgot about Xie En for a while.

In fact, there are four major parts to this holy decree.

First of all, Yang Tong's title was changed from King Yue to King of Qin; The prince has always been named after the country in the Spring and Autumn Period, and generally the four titles of "Jin, Qin, Qi, and Chu" are the most noble, followed by "Zhao, Wei, Yan, Han, Song, Liang, Zhou, Wu, ......"

"King Qin" was originally the title of Yang Jian's third son Yang Jun, Yang Jun was poisoned by the princess in the twentieth year of the emperor's reign, and was inherited by his son Yang Hao, but he and Yang Xuangan had some friendships, and because of the crime, he was disqualified from the prince and was named the Duke of Wu.

Secondly, Hebei Dao Xingtai, the full name is Hebei Dao Xingtai Shangshu Province, the chief official is Shangshu Ling, the deputy official is the servant, and the military department is Shangshu (also in charge of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites), the Ministry of Civil Affairs (also in charge of the Criminal Department, the Ministry of Industry) and one person each, four people. There is also one person each for the examination of merit, the Ministry of Rites, the Department of Food, the Department of War, the Department of Driving, the Department of Treasury, the Department of Punishment, the Department of Degrees, the Department of Households, the Ministry of Gold, the Ministry of Works, and the Tuntian Squire. They also put food, clothing, weapons, and 100 supervisors, one chief and deputy supervisor, one person, and four people. However, the "Xingtai Province" is a non-permanent temporary institution, and Yang Tong's Shangshu Decree will naturally be abolished at any time.

Third, the champion general, although he has the title of Zhengyipin, is a fictitious position that only receives money and has no real power.

Fourth, "the power to overthrow the Wupin military generals and county civil officials" - it is a position with real power, which means that the appointment power of 20 counties and 166 counties in Hebei Province is in the hands of Yang Tong, and there is no need to report, which is completely a posture of dominating one side. But compared with the lost "Eastern Capital Left Behind", the gap is far away.

Count them one by one, and they don't rise but fall.

"Thank you for the gift of your grandfather." Yang Tong's face was as usual

The ministers of civil and military affairs congratulated in unison: "Congratulations to Your Highness, who has been promoted to King of Qin, Shang Shuling, and Champion General!" ”

Some people looked at Yang Tong with sympathy in their eyes.

Emperor Yang Guang and Empress Xiao gave birth to two sons and two daughters, the eldest son Yang Zhao, the prince of Yuande, unfortunately died of illness, and the second son Yang Xuan, the king of Qi, was misbehaved and was imprisoned by Yang Guang for a long time.

Yang Guang pinned all his hopes on the three sons left by his eldest son Yang Zhao, the eldest Yang Qi, who has been carefully taught by Yang Guang all these years and is very pampered. The second Yang Tong has been staying in the eastern capital Luoyang, and the third generation of Wang Yang Yu has stayed in Chang'an, Xijing.

In fact, everyone knows that Yang Guang wants to establish Yang Qi, the king of Yan, as the emperor's grandson, but he hesitates. Because although Yang Qi, the king of Yan, is the eldest son of Yang Zhao, he is not a descendant.

Yang Zhao's wife is the daughter of Wei Shou, the prince of Huaguo, Wei Rong, and has a generation of Wang Yang Yu. And Yang Qi was born to Liu Liangdi, the eldest concubine of Yang Zhao, and her twin sister Liu Liangdi gave birth to Yang Dong.

Yang Qi is the eldest and the wisest of the three grandsons, while the grandson Wang Yu is not so smart.

But from the patriarchal point of view, if you don't set up the second son of Qi Wang Yang Xuan, and instead set up the eldest grandson Yang Qi, this matter will be too patriarchal. After all, when the crown prince died, Yang Guang either set up his second son Yang Yun, or his grandson Yang Yu, and did not cross the second son and the eldest grandson but set up a grandson.

And although Yang Qi is deeply loved by Yang Guang and his wife, the second Yang Tong and the third Yang Yu are also favored, Yang Qi has long been an adult, but he has not been canonized for a long time, which shows that Yang Guang is still hesitating, let Yang Tong guard Luoyang, Yang Yu guard Chang'an, which itself has the idea of making them heirs!

But now, Yang Tong has lost the position of "staying in the eastern capital", and to some extent, Yang Tong is out of the competition between the three kings.

Although Yang Dong's power is weak and he never competes for the position of the emperor's grandson, he is one of Yang Guang's favorite grandsons after all, and Yang Guang is now forcing him away from the eastern capital Luoyang, and Yang Yu's party and Yang Yu's party can be completely at ease.

"Your Highness!" The official said with a smile: "The Holy Lord asked you to go north as soon as possible, take over the mission of Yang Yichen, the imperial servant, conquer the Liukou of Hebei Province, and protect the peace of my Great Sui." ”

The ministers were shocked, although they knew that it was a matter of time before Yang Tong went north, but it was too fast and too sudden. But after thinking about it carefully, many Wenchen showed a knowing smile,

"Yes!" Yang Tong's heart was pounding, since the crossing, he had dreamed of leaving the Central Plains, but there was no reason at all, he didn't think that there was a big battle, so he was released as an official.

Even if Yang Guang doesn't urge, he will go to work as soon as possible!

I feel like happiness comes so fast!

"There are two secret decrees of the Holy Lord!" At this time, the proclamation officer presents the secret decree.

Yang Tong opened it and looked at it, surprised and delighted.

Surprise - the holy decree said that if Yang Yichen, the ambassador of Hebei Province, refused to return to the court, he would try to kill him.

Xi - Yang Guang compensated himself in terms of materials, as long as he wanted, everything in Luoyang and the palace was taken away.

The angel continued: "Canonize the pacification ambassador of Henan Province as the left servant of Hebei Dao Xingtai, Pei Renji as the Taishou of Ji County, the right Wuwei general Huangfu Wuyi as the Taishou of Wuyang, Hu Benlang as the general of Wuyang Tongshou, and Jia Wuben as the county of Bohai County!" ”

"Canonized Qin Qiong as the general of the fourth grade of Huben, Luo Shixin as the general of the fourth grade of the tiger, Pei Xingyan as the general of the fourth grade of the tiger, and Niu Jinda as the general of the fourth grade of the tiger...... I hope that all the generals will make great achievements under the command of King Qin."

"Thank you!"

The generals whose names were read thanked with joy on their faces, and then saluted Yang Tong one after another: "Your Highness Xie is promoted!" ”

They had seen Yang Dong's merit book, and knew that there was a reward for this step to the sky, which was directly related to Yang Tong.

"In addition, General Zhang Xutuo was killed by the anti-thieves, I regretted it, posthumously presented the military department Shangshu and the loyal marquis, and buried the north mountain of Luoyang with official rites, and hundreds of officials condoled!" The angel announced in a loud voice.

"Holy Heaven!" Hearing this, Yang Tong took Zhu Wenwu and thanked him again.

The rest of the generals and colonels also received their due rewards, and as for the soldiers who went out to conscription, they were all happy to receive five times the salary.

When the short and special canonization is over!

Yang Tong said: "The main force of Wagang was destroyed, and it became a shrinking turtle in Wagang Village in Dongjun, but the four counties of Tangyin, Neihuang, Linhe, and Lanshui in Jijun and some cities are still in the hands of the rebels. Therefore, I decided that this year was no longer over. ”

"General Pei, you command the 20,000 Tiger Prison defenders to go north immediately and recover these places, lest they sit big and strong."

"General Wang Bian, you choose 20,000 elite troops from the Eastern Capital Defenders and go to Wuyang County to cooperate with General Pei's actions."

"Bohai County is divided into two by the Yellow River, and the two counties of Yici and Putai are isolated south of the Yellow River. General Jia Wuben, you take 15,000 people from General Zhang Xutuo's headquarters to settle at the intersection of the two counties, and recruit 10,000 troops locally to prevent Henan Daoliu from going north to Douzigang. ”

"Whoa!" Pei Renji, Wang Bian, and Jia Wuben responded to the order

"Your Highness, how to solve the problem of food?"

Jia Wuben was a little embarrassed, since he and Zhang Xutuo, the army has never worried about food, and there is always a shortage of food, which is naturally caused by Zhang Xutuo's bad relationship with the local government, if he has a good relationship with the local government, how can there be a shortage of food?

"You don't have to worry about the food problem, I will give you 400,000 quintals of grain, and at the latest it will be half a month, and it will definitely be shipped to the end of the year. Before leaving, you took 10,000 soldiers to Luokoucang to take away 20,000 sets of standard armaments and 20,000 cloth horses! ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Jia Wuben was overjoyed.

"What?"

Hearing this, many ministers were shocked, King Qin actually wanted to use Luokoucang?

"Your Highness, Luokoucang can't move." Deputy left-behind Yuan Wen stood up against it.

Hearing this, Yang Tong looked at him coldly, before he left, this dog "defected" and saved for the next stay! But can you hold the Luokou warehouse?

"See for yourself!" Yang Tong handed over a secret decree.

After Yuan Wen read it, he was embarrassed, and was about to say something, but he saw Yang Tong wave his hand, and said in a light tone: "The Holy Purpose is this, I have emptied Luokoucang, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Yang Tong handed over the holy decree to the cautious and upright Emperor Fu Wuyi, and ordered: "Use all the ships in Luoyang to move all the grain and armaments from Luokoucang, Huiluocang, and Taicang to Liyangcang." The Liyang warehouse couldn't fit it, so it was placed in the granaries of Jijun, Wuyang and other counties! Whoever dares to stop will be killed. ”

Although Huangfu Wuyi is not famous in history, he is a practical person, although he is not as talented as Yang Gongren, but he is more experienced, cautious and meticulous, his biggest advantage is not that he is smarter than others, but that he is old and conscientious.

But the ministers were silent.

At this moment, Yang Tong's handsome face gave people a feeling of coldness and slaughter, like a divine sword, sharp and sharp.

I know that His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who has a generous temperament, is angry because of the unfair treatment of not ascending but descending!
