He had to settle the matter of the East Military Hall and martial arts.
Yang Guang finally had time to reorganize the harem.
He headed to Ci Ming Palace.
"Your Majesty, which palace are you planning to go to?”Eunuch Wei said.
He was Yang Guang's trusted aide, so he naturally followed him back this time.
"Which one?" Yang Guang frowned slightly.
How could he not go straight to Empress Xiao's place when he returned from his conquest of Goguryeo?
Was there a need to ask such a thing?
Then, he found the problem in his memory.
Yang Guang was actually a little cold to Empress Xiao now. Or rather, Emperor Sui had never been very good to Empress Xiao.
It could be said to be respect.
He doted on her because of her beauty.
He respected her because she was the one chosen by Empress Dugu.
Before Yang Guang ascended the throne, it was still alright, but after he ascended the throne, his attitude towards Empress Xiao was somewhat intriguing.
For example, Xiao Yu, as Empress Xiao's younger brother and the imperial uncle of the Sui Dynasty, had to go through several promotions before he was granted the rank of a third-grade official, Doctor Yinqing Guanglu.
This was obvious.
"But now Zhen is Yang Guang. The Emperor went out again and when he returned, he didn't see the Empress but lingered around the other guests.”
Yang Guang sneered.
"Go to Empress Xiao."
"Yes." Eunuch Wei lowered his head and said.
Very quickly.
Yang Guang arrived at the palace where Xiao Meiniang was.
" Your Majesty..." Xiao Meiniang was already waiting at the door when she heard the news.
"Let's go in." Yang Guang strode into the house.
After entering, he waved his hand and closed the door.
Then, he turned around and looked at Xiao Meiniang unscrupulously.
Earlier, with a quick glance, he felt that Xiao Meiniang was indeed worthy of the title of beautiful woman.
Now, he was even more surprised.
Although Xiao Meiniang was now 27 or 28 years old, she didn't lose her charm. Instead, her lazy and beautiful temperament was even better.
Especially when a pair of beautiful eyes looked at Yang Guang, it made his heart beat slightly.
" His Majesty has changed a lot…" Xiao Meiniang said with a chuckle.
"Then what changes do you think I have?" Yang Guang wasn't afraid that Xiao Meiniang would notice any changes in him.
This was because he knew from his memories that Emperor Sui had not been close to Xiao Meiniang for several years.
" It seems... Hmm..." Xiao Meiniang frowned slightly, as if she was trying to find a way to describe it.
Yang Guang looked at her with interest. She was really a beautiful woman. Every frown and smile carried a charm.
"If I have to say it, I have become more stable and have an inexplicable sense of trust.”Xiao Meiniang said softly.
"Just like the First Emperor.”
She really had this feeling.
Especially when Yang Guang was looking at her so brazenly, it made her feel even more nervous.
"Then do you think I've become better or worse?”Yang Guang said with a smile.
"Of course it's good." Xiao Meiniang lowered her head and said.
"Then why care? I am still the emperor, and you are still the mother of the world, Xiao Meiniang.”Yang Guang said with a smile.
"Today, I will be handling the court affairs here.”
"Go and give the orders."
Although he admired Xiao Meiniang, he was not someone who had never seen the world.
Since Xiao Meiniang didn't have much to say, she naturally had to deal with the court affairs.
"Yes." Xiao Meiniang went down to give the order while she gently pressed Yang Guang's temple with her weak and boneless hand.
"Your Majesty, was the conquest of Goguryeo tiring? I thought that Your Majesty was being cold.”
"Now it seems that I can't get close to him because I have to practice divine techniques.”
"Is it to get rid of the Demon Sect?"
Demon Sect?
When Yang Guang heard this word, his eyes narrowed slightly.
He had almost forgotten.
These few days, he had been dealing with the matters of the aristocratic families and powerful families.
They had completely ignored the three major forces in the world, the Dao Sect, the Buddhist Sect, and the Demon Sect.
Among them, the Demon Sect supported Yang Guang's ascension.
From the moment he came over, the eunuchs and guards around him were all from the fiend sects. It could be seen that the fiend sects had control over Yang Guang.
Although Yang Guang had ascended the throne for several years, the Demon Sect was probably infiltrating the court more and more.
However…
"Now that I'm a Martial Saint, what's there to fear from the Demon Sect?”
"The Demon Sect, the Dao Sect, and the Buddhist Sect are the three great sects in the world. In the end, they are just martial arts sects in the martial world, even if they involve many people.”
"But how can their true influence compare to that of the aristocratic families?”
Yang Guang shook his head slightly.”
"Even so, who in the world isn't an aristocratic family?”Xiao Meiniang sighed.
" And…" She opened her mouth to say something, but she suddenly shut her mouth.
"Say whatever you want to say." Yang Guang glanced at her.
"Moreover, although Your Majesty is a Martial Saint now, it is not appropriate to suppress him in blood.”Xiao Meiniang said softly.
"Yang Xuangan and his family are guilty of treason, but the other meritorious officials cannot be killed indiscriminately.”
"After all…"
She didn't even know why she said those words.
This was no longer a problem of the harem not being able to interfere in politics, but these words were likely to cause Yang Guang discomfort.
But facing the current Yang Guang, Empress Xiao could not help but say.
"Is Mei Niang worried about me?" Yang Guang laughed.
He naturally knew what Xiao Meiniang meant.
The bloody suppression was indeed effective.
However, not everything could be suppressed with blood.
Just like before, Yang Guang really wanted to kill all those aristocratic families.
But was it possible?
Perhaps the Great Han could kill meritorious officials without restraint. I can do it tomorrow!
But not the Sui Dynasty!
This was mainly a matter of the hearts of the people.
For example, Zhu Yuanzhang of the Great Ming Dynasty, he really killed a lot of people. After the founding of the country, did he not kill a lot of founding generals?
Or are there too few important officials in the court?
However, since when was there chaos in the founding of the Ming Dynasty? This was a problem of the people's hearts.
Zhu Yuanzhang had really conquered the world step by step. Even Qin Shihuang could not compare to him.
What about the Sui Dynasty?
Not to mention the fact that it had been established for decades, it was also wrong to obtain a country.
Yang Jian was a figure similar to Sima Yi, who had seized the Zhou Dynasty.
Yang Guang himself had even killed his brother to ascend the throne.
As for Li Shi Min, it was the same. He was able to become the emperor because Yang Guang had gone overboard.
He was pushed up by the aristocratic families.
Therefore, Li Shimin didn't dare to kill the meritorious officials.
If Yang Guang still dared to suppress them, then the world would instantly turn against him, and the repercussions would be too great.
"The Sui Dynasty is in trouble…"
"The Sui Dynasty of this world is even more difficult."
"But…why should I be afraid?"
Yang Guang raised his head and let Xiao Meiniang serve him."Beauty, you don't need to care about this. Zhen has his own plans.”
"Yes." Xiao Meiniang gently placed Yang Guang's head on her knees.""I don't know that. I only know that Your Majesty is good.”
Yang Guang smiled and closed his eyes.
Drunk on the knees of a beauty, awake with a murderous sword.
It was just that if he wanted to lie down properly, he still needed to go through a lot of trouble.
Whoosh...
Gradually, Yang Guang fell asleep.
Ever since he came, he had conquered Goguryeo, suppressed Youzhou, and handled Luoyang's affairs.
He was also extremely tired.
" Your Majesty…No matter how much you've changed, you're still my Majesty…"
Xiao Meiniang looked at Yang Guang even more tenderly.
She felt that the Yang Guang in front of her was better and more perfect.
