    PS: Would it be annoying to add the words "asking for monthly votes" in front of each chapter?  PS2: Don¡¯t worry. Chapter 677: Raising a Pig. Chang¡¯an City. East Nuan Pavilion of Taiji Hall. Emperor Xinghuang of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Chengqian, had a chill on his face as he looked at the memorial in front of him. Things in the capital were enough to bother him. Wanli  Yongzhou outside is also unsettling.  Fang Jie sent someone to rush it thousands of miles away to deliver this memorial. After reading it, Dou Shuangfang, the eunuch of Bingbi, was shocked and ran all the way to Dongnuan Pavilion without daring to delay.  It was snowing, and a layer of snow fell on Dou Shuangfang's body and turned into water as soon as he entered the house. The heat in the room was like a ferocious beast, instantly killing the remaining snow on his clothes.  After handing over the memorial, Dou Shuangfang stood aside with his body bowed, stealing glances at the young emperor from time to time.  From the little emperor's slightly trembling shoulders, he could see how much anger was suppressed in that thin body, so Dou Shuangfang tried hard to think of words to comfort him.  This solution is indeed a bit too much.  It¡¯s just a matter of supporting the troops and respecting yourself, but you actually dare to come forward to ask for credit!  I don¡¯t know how long it took. The little emperor let out a long sigh of relief and then picked up the memorial and read it again, reading it word by word, carefully.  "That's all" The little emperor handed the memorial to Dou Shuangfang: "Send someone to show it to the general and ask him what he means. If the general has no objection, I will give Fang Jie some rewards later.  After all, Fang Jie led his troops to quell the rebellion in southern Xinjiang, fought back the southern barbarians, and killed Luo Yao. This is a great achievement. " "Your Majesty" Dou Shuangfang hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but persuade him.  One sentence: "This matter should you wait for a while before telling the general?" "Huh?" The little emperor was slightly stunned for a moment, and after taking a look at Dou Shuangfang, he was a little confused about what Dou Shuangfang meant: "Slow down for a while.  ? Why? " "Your Majesty this solution seems to work!" Dou Shuangfang lowered his voice and said: "I remember that this General Fang was the prince's young master who was selected by the late emperor. If it weren't for Luo Yao's rebellion,  His heart was revealed. If he was sent to Yongzhou by the late emperor, he should be an important minister in the court by now. Since the late emperor chose him in the first place, there must be a reason The slave looked at it and saw that this Fang Jie was also a useful person.  . If he had the same thoughts as Luo Yao, there would be no need to send someone to express his merits. "The little emperor pondered for a moment and said, "I remember that my father mentioned this person to me several times.  I have only met him once or twice, but this person behaves brightly and generously. Although he comes from a poor family, he still has style and does not stick to trivial matters Before he left the capital, his father intended to make him the prince's young master, which shows that his father  He also trusted this person. Later, Fang Jie stayed in Luo Yao's army. Although he did not have the power to supervise the army, he still had the responsibility of supervising the army. Later, he led the army to the northwest, and instead of being a bandit, he led the army to fight against the Mongolian Tartars.  Son, it can be seen from this that he is still loyal to the imperial court in his heart" Dou Shuangfang said quickly: "This is what I thought. Now there are not many ministers in the court who can be loyal to your majesty" The expression on the little emperor's face  After a change, he understood what Dou Shuangfang meant: "You mean, let me reuse this person?" Dou Shuangfang said: "Now, few ministers in the imperial court dare to straighten their spines and work for His Majesty, because  They are all afraid of death These people are from wealthy families, and they carry not only their own heads, but also the wealth and wealth of hundreds of people on their shoulders, so they are all timid, and no one dares to do anything.  Your Majesty will die." The little emperor said angrily, "It's better to count on my dog ??than to count on them!" Dou Shuangfang said: "Your Majesty, please calm down I think there is no one in the court who can do anything.  Yes, in the military Xu Xiaogong and Liu Enjing even though they had soldiers in their hands, they refused to return to the capital as an excuse to hunt down Luo Yao's remnants. It was expected that they also had some dirty thoughts in their hearts. Some local only wanted.  For self-preservation, those with greater strength have ulterior motives. Civil officials and generals cannot point to him, but Fang Jie is different. He came from a humble family and started from scratch. He does not have so many worries, but has greater pursuits The courtiers are not short of glory and wealth.  , Fang Jie is in short supply" He glanced at the little emperor's face and saw that the little emperor seemed to be entranced by what he was listening to, so he continued: "Now your Majesty is short of such a general who has soldiers and generals and can fight well.  .  Moreover, since this Fang Jie can snipe Luo Yao, it means that even if this person is not a good person, he must have some highly skilled Jianghu people under him.  Isn¡¯t this exactly the talent His Majesty needs now?  "    "Um!  " The little emperor suddenly remembered something: "I remember that this person once had a close relationship with a Taoist from Qingle Mountain Yiqi Temple. That Taoist Xiang Qingniu, and Fang Jieduo have come together.Past.  I also heard that Fang Jie is a disciple of the Seventh Emperor's Uncle and he also has a close relationship with Luo Weiran, the former commander of the Ouchi Guards Department. There must be many masters in the world around this person.  Since Luo Yao can injure a big, it means that Luo Yao's cultivation is extremely strong.  And Fang Jie can kill Luo Yao" "Your Majesty" Dou Shuangfang smiled and said, "I feel that this Fang Jie deserves not only a reward, but also a generous reward.  The little emperor pondered for a while and asked: "I remember, Fang Jie is now a first-class county magistrate?"  Fourth grade general?  " "County Marquis" Dou Shuangfang corrected. "Hmm" The little emperor thought for a while and said: "Draft an edict Don't invent the edict, send a capable person to secretly send it to Yongzhou.  Jin Fang was promoted to a third-grade general and a second-grade county prince, with an additional official residence and double salary.  The Black Flag Army distributes military pay according to the combat system. The imperial court is short of money and food, so Fang Jie is asked to raise it locally. I will just supply it to him later.  " "Here" Dou Shuangfang responded, thought for a while and asked: "I feel that secret edicts are to be issued, and explicit edicts are also to be issued This matter must be reported to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs, and it cannot be hidden.  "That's all." The little emperor said: "Since it can't be put in the dark, then let's just put it in the open."  You go back and invite the general to Dong Nuan Pavilion, and I will tell you personally.  I've said it, but he won't doubt anything. Fang Jie said it was a real military achievement, so he can't refuse it, right?  " "My servant feels that Fang Jie should be temporarily avoided. It is better to fulfill his wish. His Majesty ordered him to lead the army to conquer the Southern Barbarians and subdue the Southern Yan. After his troops and horses are strong, he will be transferred back to the capital  Your Majesty does not need to worry about his self-respect in supporting troops. If Fang Jiezhen is the next Luo Yao, just let the general lead the troops to fight.  If Fang Jie is loyal and patriotic, then let him come back to fight" The little emperor couldn't help laughing: "Add another decree, the local officials of the four southwest provinces must fully assist Fang Jie in the war, and they are not allowed to slack off, Dou Shuang  Fang you are quite clever, so I will raise a tiger, and then the two tigers will fight"      There is suddenly a great general in the capital, and no one knows his name.  , but everyone in Baili Chang'an City knew that this man's power was overwhelming. It was said that the young emperor Yang Chengqian was a puppet. He did not dare to make decisions on his own in all court affairs, and had to consult the general.  A while ago, the armored troops under the general's command ransacked more than 20 large houses in the capital, and beheaded more than 2,000 people at Caishikou. They were accused of treason. But such a big movement, in the internal troubles of the Sui Dynasty,  The moment of foreign aggression seems a bit unusual. According to common sense, even if these courtiers really colluded with the rebels, now that Luo Yao has been defeated and Yong's army has retreated thousands of miles to Jiangbei Road, there is no need for the emperor to kill him in order to appease people's hearts.  So many people, on the contrary, killing too many people will cause resistance from those noble families. But people are killed like this, and they come suddenly. In the past, the only people who could walk around in Chang'an City were those arrogant guys.  All of them have good family backgrounds and are domineering. However, since the inexplicable appearance of the Iron Armored Army, the imperial army no longer has the majesty of the Imperial Army in Chang'an City. Each of those Iron Armored Army members looks like a very powerful person, although the armor on their bodies looks rough.  But the armor is as thick as a finger, not to mention ordinary feather arrows, and ordinary steel knives can't penetrate it, leaving only a mark. The armor weighs at least a hundred pounds, and the average man wears it.  They can't even walk safely. The most chilling thing is that these armored soldiers seem to have an air of hostility in them. They are very far away, and their overwhelming power makes people want to retreat.  The old man who has seen the world said that it was a murderous aura that was so strong that it could not be quenched. Only people who had walked through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood would have such strong murderous aura in their bodies. If the soldiers under his command were like this, then what about that general?  As you can imagine, this general is very mysterious and rarely moves around. All affairs in the army are also managed by a young man named Puhu who is under his command. This General Puhu looks like he is only fourteen or fifteen years old.  He doesn't even ride a horse, he always rides an old ox. Not to mention ordinary people, even the dignitaries of the army and the imperial court will bow down and salute when they see this general.  The wife of the family was traveling and met a kid riding a scalper. The maid who was close to the lady asked him to give way, but she refused. The maid was accustomed to whipping her whip and hit the old scalper. As a result, the young man was so angry that he turned out to be a kid.  He tore apart more than a dozen people on the street, including the ladies of the Sun family. At night, Mr. Sun, the Minister of Rites, knelt outside the gate of the General's Mansion, kowtowing until his forehead was bruised.  An armored soldier came out of the general's palace, waved his hand and said get out of here. The young general didn't care anymore. Only then did the third-rank minister of etiquette dare to get up and go back.Mourning.  Since then, there has been a saying secretly circulating in Chang'an City, and naturally no one dares to say it openly.  The emperor¡¯s third-grade officials are not as good as General Puhu¡¯s old ox.  The General¡¯s Mansion was the former Prince Yi¡¯s Mansion.  Since Prince Yi¡¯s rebellion, this mansion has been idle.  Later, the general moved in and was guarded by armored troops, so that no one in the entire street dared to approach.  As for the rebellious Prince Yi, some said that he had been executed by the emperor, some said that he was still locked up in a secret cell at the Ouchi Guards Office, and some said that Emperor Tianyou brought him with him during his Western Expedition and died in the chaos.  In the army, there are various theories.  Originally, in such a big case, if the main culprit was not punished, it would definitely lead to a lot of discussion, but the chaos that followed caused people to ignore this romantic prince who was once well-known in Chang'an City.  In fact, Yang Yin is still alive.  Now he is locked up in Prince Yi's Mansion, in an independent small courtyard. There are cold armored soldiers guarding the door. There are several servants waiting in the small courtyard. He is well fed and well clothed. He doesn't look like a death row prisoner.  In terms of food, he ate things that ordinary people might not be able to eat in their lifetime.  In terms of clothes, he actually wore brocade clothes and a mink velvet cloak.  These days, he has been raised to be fat and white.  But I don¡¯t know why, everyone who sees this big man will have an illusion.  This prince was so well-raised that he looked like a pig instead of being noble at all.  The armored general stood at the door of the small courtyard, looking at Yang Yin who looked up at Tianchi and smiled in the courtyard, shook his head slightly, then turned and walked away, with the half-grown boy named Puhu following closely behind him.  He looked back at Yang Yin with disdain in his eyes.  "When humans are crippled, they are just like pigs." Puhu said.  The armored general paused slightly, then slowly shook his head: "There is still unruliness in his bones." "Keep him alive?" Pu Hu asked.  "Keep it." The armored general nodded and then strode away.  There were two sets of footprints left on the snow. The larger one was that of the armored general, and the smaller one was that of the tiger. They were so harmonious, as if he should follow wherever he walked. It was natural.  The armored general raised his hand and rubbed Puhu's messy hair, and Puhu smiled stupidly and happily.
