It was about Zhu Yuanzhang's award and commendation.
It really came to an end here.
Three days later! The next winner will be announced!
All the rewards were given.
After announcing the date of the next award ceremony, the figure of the immortal god in the sky slowly dissipated like smoke, no different from before.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was clear as if the immortal had never appeared. Everyone knew that the next award ceremony would take some time.
At this moment.
Although the world had calmed down, no one in the historical planes could calm down easily. It should be said that they could not calm down for a long time.
Great Sui Spacetime.
"A traitor, a commoner who dares to resist the imperial power, can actually succeed and receive such a generous reward…The influence of this Immortal and God selection is not good.”
As a proud emperor, Yang Guang naturally wouldn't show his jealousy. He was talking about Zhu Yuanzhang's background.
Indeed.
Yang Guang, as the ruler of a subjugated country, could be considered a tyrant, but it could not be said that he was a fatuous ruler. This accusation was reasonable.
It was now the eleventh year of Daye.
After three battles with Goguryeo.
Resentment rose among the people of the Sui Dynasty.
There were many places where refugees rebelled. Even though they were small groups of rebels, Yang Guang and the Sui Dynasty's army did not take them seriously.
However, they were still part of the rebel army after all. Who knew how many people would be inspired to rebel after Zhu Yuanzhang's deeds. Of course, this was still not in Yang Guang's eyes.
He believed that his subjects could handle everything.
Emperor Yang's court had a unique characteristic.
Many of the civil and military officials in the court were very capable people. Many of the high-ranking officials came from aristocratic families. They considered aristocratic families before the country, such as Pei Ju and Pei Yun.
There were also people with strong abilities but poor character, such as Yu Shiji. There was also Yu Wenshu. It was because he was loyal to Yang Guang when he pretended to be thrifty and fought for the throne, so Yang Guang had always been nostalgic.
These people were all capable people. If anything went wrong, they could easily resolve it.
"Your Majesty is right! A rebellious refugee! How could he be on the list of people who touched China! This time, the Immortal God was definitely muddle-headed!”
Someone who dared to agree with the emperor.
Only the eunuchs whose lives belonged to the emperor.
In the feudal dynasty, the imperial palace was a dignified and sacred existence. However, there was a group of very humble and helpless people in the palace. They were the so-called eunuchs without eggs.
It could be said that eunuchs were a special group of people who existed completely because of the feudal system. Most people chose to be eunuchs because they lived in poverty or had no other way out.
This was because once they entered the palace and became eunuchs, they would not be able to have children for the rest of their lives. They would all become the lowest level of people and would be trampled on by others. Only a small number of them could control power.
For example, the eunuchs around Emperor Yang.
Everything they had was given to them by the Emperor. Therefore, they would definitely do their best to protect the Emperor. Even if they spoke rudely to the Immortals and Gods, they had to endure the fear in their hearts.
After saying that.
The eunuch kept praying in his heart, hoping that the Immortal would be magnanimous and not lower himself to the level of a crippled person like him. He hoped that the Immortal would show the humble behavior of a eunuch to the fullest.
"Humph."
Emperor Yang Guang did not dare to show any disrespect to the immortal god, so he only snorted in agreement with the eunuch. At this moment, the young man who was drinking tea with him smiled and spoke.
"Your Majesty, it's not that Zhu Yuanzhang was wrong. In his era, so many people starved to death by the roadside. This was a symbol of the decline of a dynasty.”
"Therefore, even without Zhu Yuanzhang, there would still be Liu Yuanzhang and Zhang Yuanzhang. In the end, it's just that the foreign race dynasty doesn't know how to manage.”
"Although he has dominated the world, he doesn't know how to govern it.”
"Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance was not an accident, but a necessity. He did indeed do a very remarkable thing, expelling the barbarians and returning a great empire to us Han people.”
"Presumably, this is the place that the immortals and gods have taken a fancy to.”The young man spoke with confidence and assurance. His speech was extraordinary, and he could be considered to have an imposing posture.
When facing the Emperor, although his attitude was very low, he did not look humble at all. At this time, he was not in the main hall, so he did not have to be so formal with the emperor.
In fact, very few people knew.
Before the Braid Dynasty was established.
However, there was no such thing as kneeling down at any time.
Since ancient times.
Although China placed great importance on the difference in status, it was still not a big deal.
However, that was mostly in the dignified hall, as well as the importance of personal ideology.
The Qing Dynasty was the weirdo.
In particular, the etiquette and address in the officialdom were extremely appropriate. Especially when the emperor or empress dowager summoned the ministers inside and outside, the ministers had to abide by the etiquette system. If they were not careful, they would lose their manners. At the lightest, they would be fined their salaries. At the most serious, they would be demoted, lose their official positions, or even be sentenced.
This was absolutely impossible in the early stages of China, especially during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. There were many cases where officials and ministers met in private, and some even got along like friends.
Of course.
He still needed to be careful in formal occasions.
"Expel the barbarians and return the Han people's rivers and mountains. This is worthy of praise. I just feel that those refugees might jump up and down even more after seeing this person's matter.”
Emperor Yang Guang was not stingy with praising Zhu Yuanzhang's achievements.
That was his personality.
Arrogant.
However, he was not brainless.
Because of this.
That was why history had different opinions of him.
"It's just a group of refugees. They can't cause any big trouble. Didn't the immortals and gods already reveal that in our vast Huaxia, there's only one successful refugee.”
"The other refugees aren't even worth mentioning.”
"Of course, I'm not saying that we don't need to pay attention to him at all. His Majesty's concerns are also very important. I think that since everyone in the world knows about him, we can't avoid it. We can completely glorify him as a representative of the Han people.”
"He's a national hero who rose up to fight against foreign races for the sake of his nation.”
The young man began to make plans.
Your idea is good, not bad.
Yang Guang's eyes lit up as he looked at the young man with admiration.
"It's all thanks to Your Majesty's great blessing.”
The young man was very humble.
Then, he complimented," Actually, even if I didn't say it, Your Majesty would have thought of it. It's just that from Your Majesty's point of view, you have to think more about the hidden dangers of the country.”
This was obviously flattery, but it made people feel comfortable and did not seem to be trying to curry favor.
"Hahaha, you're still so good at talking.”
Yang Guang was naturally happy to be flattered. The feeling of flattering someone he valued was different from flattering a eunuch. He was very happy that the young man in front of him was flattering him.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. My Great Sui is different from that Outsider Dynasty. Under Your Majesty's leadership, we will only become stronger and stronger.”
"In today's world, other than those refugees, the ordinary people are still living very well. All of this is due to Your Majesty's credit. Our Great Sui will definitely be prosperous for all eternity.”
The young man seemed to have unlimited confidence in Yang Guang.
In his words.
There was also a hint of admiration…the kind that only sharp people could detect.
"Shimin, you're very confident in me, haha, I'm also confident in myself. I believe that my future achievements will definitely surpass this so-called Hongwu Emperor.”
"There must be a place for me on this list.”
Yang Guang, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, was a little arrogant at this moment as he said loudly. How should he put it? Perhaps some people had already noticed that the name he called the young man beside him was a little familiar.
Yes, it was.
That's right.
The young man who once saved Yang Guang's life was the Duke of Dunhuang, the future emperor of the Tang Empire, Li Shimin. He said that the Great Sui Dynasty's eternal prosperity was really special.
He looked like a fan of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. He was definitely loyal to the Great Sui Dynasty. Who knew what Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty would think when he found out about this guy's future identity.
In fact, many people knew that Li Shimin and Yang Guang had a good relationship in the early days.
Let's not talk about Li Shiming saving Yang Guang's life.
First of all.
Li Shi Min and Yang Guang were close relatives.
They were basically a family.
Yang Guang could be considered Li Shimin's uncle.
Yes.
Li Shiming also married Yang Guang's daughter, Yang Fei…In short, the two of them were considered close relatives, so they were naturally close.
Moreover…
This was because the two of them had many similarities.
They got along very well.
At least.
In the eyes of Emperor Yang Guang, they were very harmonious.
They indeed had a lot in common, as well as a common personality.
If someone in the future said that Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, had many similarities with Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, then this person might be opposed by many people.
In many people's minds, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was the ruler of a subjugated country. He lived a life of debauchery and extravagance, which ruined the once powerful Great Sui Dynasty. However, Emperor Taizong was a wise ruler. He worked hard to make the country prosperous, and finally created the glorious "Great Tang's Prosperity". How could these two people be similar?
This was actually a relatively weak understanding.
If one did not just limit themselves to these comments, but looked at their origins, their status, and some of their own characteristics and past experiences, then everyone would be surprised to find: The two of them indeed had many similarities.
First of all, from their origins.
Yang Guang and Li Shi Min were both children of aristocratic families.
Yang Guang's grandfather, Yang Zhong, and Li Shimin's great-grandfather, Li Hu, were both meritorious officials in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Later on, they followed their father's generation to establish their own dynasties and became princes of dignitaries. They then became the second generation of ruling figures in their powerful dynasties.
From this point of view, Yang Guang and Li Shiming were both equally noble. Their identities were very close.
Yang Guang and Li Shimin were also people with deep literary accomplishments.
They had many poems that were passed down.
As the saying goes, poetry speaks for itself.
Judging from the talent and boldness of their poems, Yang Guang and Li Shimin had similar personalities, which naturally pulled the distance between the two of them even closer.
Therefore…
In Yang Guang's eyes.
Li Shi Min was a good nephew.
As for what he was to this good nephew of his?
Yang Guang did not know.
This was something that only Li Shiming himself and God knew.
