"You don't want to be called 'En Gong' in the future, just call me a son." Liu Xu didn't refuse, anyway, Ren Meimei also manages a lot of girls from Cuibilou, besides, Daiqinglou can basically be regarded as a change of owner now. , don't worry that they have no place to live.

"Yes, young master." Jing Man and You Xing shouted in unison with joy on their faces.

Seeing such a result, Hou Hou couldn't help laughing at the side, but she was thinking about what Liu Xu was going to do, did he really want them like this?

Thinking about it, even though she kept restraining her mind, she still couldn't help feeling uncomfortable in her heart, and she couldn't help frowning slightly. In fact, Hou Hou knew very well in her heart that the two women did this just to let Liu Xu avenge them.

"Miss, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Hou Hou's frown, Jing Man couldn't help asking with concern.

It has to be said that he was born in Tianxiang Tower, and his skills in observing words and expressions are first-class.

"I'm fine, it's just that I feel a little uncomfortable." Hou Hou smiled calmly.

"Then I'll go back with you first." Liu Xu looked concerned, and seeing her hesitant look, he said, "I can buy some clothes for them by the way."

It was only then that Jing Man and You Xing realized that their clothes and skirts were in tatters, and there was even a gleam of light in several places, they couldn't help turning around, their faces blushing.

Hou Hou looked at the two girls who were blushing, and then showed an ambiguous look to Liu Xu, and said with a smile, "Okay."

Therefore, Liu Xu asked Jingman and his daughters to wait for him in the wooden house, and he accompanied Houhou back to Rongyang City.

Jiangdu, the Emperor's Linjiang Palace.

At this time, Liu Xu was wearing a human skin mask, transformed into an ordinary member of the imperial guards, and was standing guard in the palace of Emperor Sui Yang together with other imperial guards.

After constantly leveling up with women, Liu Xu finally succeeded in stepping into the realm of the master, but the only pity is that the information obtained from Xiangyu Mountain is not complete, because the information is obtained from his corpse, and the reaction is fast enough , if the dead time is longer, then nothing can be obtained.

It can be said that in today's world, he is already comparable to the three great masters and the heavenly sword Song Que, and his strength has surpassed Zhu Yuyan and the schizophrenic Shi Zhixuan.

Although he was just a newcomer to the Grandmaster, there was probably a certain gap between him and Song Que and Ning Daoqi's top Grandmasters, but in a one-on-one situation, no one could kill Liu Xu.

After being promoted, Liu Xu first went to Shu to make preliminary arrangements for the layout of the evil king Shi Zhixuan, and then returned to Yangzhou City as quickly as possible, sneaked into the emperor's palace and pretended to be an ordinary guard of the Imperial Guard.

According to the plot of the original book, combined with the feedback from Yun Yuzhen's intelligence network, Yu Wenhua and the murder of Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang should have happened in the past few days.

At this time, the Sui Dynasty was in turmoil, and the situation in the world was becoming more and more critical. Peasant uprisings were in full swing everywhere. Li Mi, who was the most popular, had already captured Luokou Cangbing and forced Luoyang, the eastern capital. Instigated by Liu Xu, the army rebelled and invaded Chang'an, and the world was about to fall apart.

Chapter 1392 Rebellion, Sui Emperor Yang Guang

In such a situation where the country is in danger at any time, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty is still unaware, trusts the villain, stays in the Jiangdu palace, and lives a life of drunkenness and dreams.But the tens of thousands of imperial guards accompanying them knew that troubled times were coming, and they all wanted to go north and return home, and their hearts changed.

As the core of Yuwen Clan, one of the four major clans, Yu Wenhua wanted to recruit troops in the troubled times, and it was reasonable to gather these tens of thousands of elite imperial troops.But killing the emperor, hmph, is insanely stupid!

In ancient China, integrity and reputation were the most important. Unlike modern people who can change jobs at will, betraying their masters in ancient times was a big stain in life.Most of the traitors who kill their masters will not end well, let alone kill the emperor who occupies the name of righteousness?He was defeated and died less than a year after the coup, which also illustrates this point.Therefore, when the ancients rebelled, most of them used the guise of the Qing emperor's side, just to avoid losing the name of righteousness.

This is also the reason why Liu Xu secretly founded the White Lotus Sect.

So even if the Li Clan raised troops, although they issued a call to arms that Emperor Sui Yang was fatuous and wanted to make Yang Tong the new monarch, they still respected Yang Guang as the Supreme Emperor, at least not daring to show any serious disrespect to the emperor.

Li Yuan was born in the Guanlong nobles, and was the nephew of Sui Wendi Yang Jian and Empress Dugu Jialuo. He can be said to be a representative figure of this generation of Guanlong nobles.The Guanlong Group is actually the northern barbarian aristocratic group.

Li Yuan was born in the Guanlong nobles, and was the nephew of Sui Wendi Yang Jian and Empress Dugu Jialuo. He can be said to be a representative figure of this generation of Guanlong nobles.The Guanlong Group is actually the northern barbarian aristocratic group.

The regime of the Hu people in the north went through several dynasties, and finally established the Sui Dynasty.

In fact, since the establishment of the Sui Dynasty and the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, the Han people have been subjugated, and only the Lingnan Song clan still has a certain degree of autonomy to survive.

The three northern clans, the Yuwen clan, the Dugu clan, and the Li clan, all belong to the Xianbei Hu species. Although they can be called the Sinicized Han Hus now, they are not Han people at all.So later Li Shimin was honored as Tian Khan, no matter how strong the country is, if he was not from a barbarian, how could he get this barbarian title?

And hundreds of years of continuous wars have made the people need to seek a kind of spiritual sustenance.During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Buddhism, the foreign Hu religion that entered China from India during the Han Dynasty, began to develop rapidly and occupied a dominant position.The founder of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, was the spokesperson of Buddhism, and he was called the Bodhisattva Emperor. Buddhism was extremely prosperous in the Sui Dynasty.It is estimated that the fairy of Cihang Jingzhai chose Yang Jian back then, but I don't know if the seniors Shi Feixuan and Fan Qinghui went to the emperor's bed to achieve their goals.

However, after Yang Jian came to power, he attached great importance to promoting Han culture and focused on de-Xianbei culture, so he was rejected by the northern barbarian aristocratic system, and his Xianbei background prevented him from receiving the support of southern Han forces such as the Song Dynasty. The dynasty has always had hidden dangers.

When Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty came to power, he was so rejoicing in his achievements that he ignored the sufferings of the people and brought disaster to the world.What's more, in the era of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, the imperial examination system was formally established, and scholars from poor families could gain political status through the imperial examination, which broke the absolute monopoly of high-level discourse power by the powerful clans, and also had an impact on the Hu people's aristocratic group.

Under such a background, the Hu Clan Alliance was already planning to establish a new leader at this time. Later, the Li Clan gained momentum, Yu Wenshang of the Yuwen Clan, You Chuhong of the Dugu Clan, etc. all attached themselves. Lianzhi.

With the trend of the general trend, Hujiao immediately abandoned Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty who believed in Buddhism, and set up another spokesperson among the Hu nobles.Therefore, it is impossible for the Buddhist forces who are also outsiders to choose Kou Zhong.Everything for the country and the people is false, and the Hu religion can only choose a spokesperson among the Hu species.However, Kou Zhong's hope of carrying the revival of the power of the purebred Han people was deceived by Hujiao at the last moment, ruining the efforts of the Han people headed by the Song Clan to rebuild the Han dynasty.What kind of bullshit Han and Hu national integration, at least at this stage, is to completely use Hu to rule Han!

I don’t know if Kou Zhong took Li Shimin to see Song Que, the Heavenly Saber, if Song Que hadn’t been seriously injured by Hu Jiao’s conspiracy and had to swallow his anger to accept the reality, would Song Que have cut off the head of that bastard Kou Zhong with one knife!

Just as Liu Xu was thinking, the situation in the hall changed.

The jester Yu Shiji is kneeling under the emperor's dragon chair, singing praises for the emperor, telling the emperor that the situation in the world is safe, those rebels are just mobs, please don't worry about it.

But the current Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was half lying on the large dragon chair, surrounded by many beautiful concubines, enjoying the gentleness of Yingying and Yanyan beside him, while listening to the reports of his courtiers.

Yang Guang should be less than 50 years old at this time, but his face is pale, his eyes are dull, and he looks drowsy from excessive wine.In fact, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was also a heroic generation when he was young. Jun Lue became the Marshal of the Army and Horses at the age of 20. With the assistance of famous generals such as He Ruozhou and Han Qinhu, he went south to conquer Chen Guo and destroyed the Southern Dynasty. At the age of 30, he led the army to the north to repel the Turkic invasion to the south.

In terms of strategy, he is even more good at scheming, knows how to advance and retreat, and uses various means to win over people's hearts, successfully replacing the crown prince Yang Yong, and succeeding him as the king of a country.Literary talent is also very good, the talent is extraordinary and the writing is gorgeous, and the poems have been passed down to future generations.

Even Mao Taizu of the later Chinese dynasty once commented: "Emperor Sui Yang is a man who can write articles and poems."

It's a pity that after winning the big position, his youthful literary and military strategy was overshadowed by his own arrogance of success.

In fact, many of his decisions are beneficial to the country. For example, the opening of the canal caused a heavy burden on the country's financial resources and people's resources, but it played a great role in connecting the north-south traffic.

The imperial examination system inherited from Yang Jian and formally established by him also had a profound impact on later generations of scholars, enabling ordinary people in China to have a step into the top ranks and promoting social stability; Didn't Taizong Li Shimin conquer Goguryeo three times?

However, to complete so many major events in more than ten years would have overdrawn the country's strength. In addition, Yang Guang was extremely extravagant, built a large number of various palaces, often traveled south and south along the canal, and asked to plant willows along the river, etc. It eventually led to the demise of the two generations of the Sui Dynasty.

Chapter 1393 Wenyu kills the king and rescues him

At this moment, a cold snort was heard from outside the hall, and then, a heroic man in his 30s wearing a military uniform strode in, followed by a tall man.

It was Yu Wenhuaji and Yu Wenzhiji!

Dugu Sheng, who was serving by the emperor's side, quickly jumped out to reprimand Yu Huaji for his crime of disrespect, but at this time Yu Huaji, who already had the heart of killing the king, didn't care about so much, grinned grinningly, and immediately attacked.The imperial guards had long been controlled by him, and Dugu Sheng, who was the emperor's security guard, was caught off guard by this sudden rebellion. For a while, the rebels fought chaotically with the imperial guards loyal to the emperor, and the whole hall was in chaos.

But Yu Wenhuaji confronted Dugu Sheng, his martial arts were clearly superior, and he soon killed Dugu Sheng to the point of danger.

"Haha! Go to hell!" Yu Wenhua and Chang laughed, the Xuanbing energy reached its peak, and even his eyebrows seemed to be covered with hoarfrost.

He slammed forward with both palms, and Dugu Sheng, whose mouth was bleeding, obviously had no strength to resist, and a look of despair flashed in his eyes, he was afraid that he would be killed by his palms.

At this moment, Liu Xu made a move.

Seeing that Yu Wenhuaji's palm was about to hit Dugu Sheng, suddenly, a warning sounded in the depths of Yu Wenhuaji's heart, and a feeling of imminent catastrophe arose spontaneously, but the other five senses did not notice any abnormalities, as if the sense organs Like being blinded.The specious sense of dislocation made him feel so sad that he wanted to vomit blood.

Liu Xu had already set up an invisible fight to deceive his senses, and even pretended to be an ordinary soldier to fight with the rebels, waiting for the opportunity to get close to Yu Wenhuaji.

Not far behind him, Liu Xu suddenly launched an attack, taking advantage of his most smug moment, to attack him behind the door.

Grandmaster-level masters are already the strongest force in the world, like the three great masters and Song Que, they all respect their identities, and they are also dignified when confronting others.

But Liu Xu comes from a pragmatic modern age, and he doesn't care about his identity at all. He not only conducts sneak attacks as a master, but also disguises himself, lays down an aura that confuses the enemy, and attacks when the enemy's attention is most distracted. One hit hits the mark.

In this situation, even though Yu Huaji is a first-class expert, how can he resist such a surprise attack?He could only force himself to condense on the back door, and felt a soft palm silently slapped on the vest, and then the whole body spurted blood wildly, and was blown away by the sudden, overwhelming palm force.

With one strike, Yu Wenhua, whose heart was broken, had no reason to be spared.

Liu Xu said to Dugu Sheng: "The anti-thief leader Yu Wenhuaji has been killed, General Dugu, please immediately gather the soldiers to protect the Holy Majesty!"

The accident happened too fast, when Yu Wenzhiji rushed to Yu Wenhuaji's side with a cry of mourning, Yu Wenhuaji's eyes were wide open, and his face was deathly angry.

There was a look of reluctance in his eyes, and he yelled wildly: "I am a man who calls himself emperor, how can I die here!" After speaking, the true energy that was holding his last breath was turbid, his head tilted, and he died with regret.

Liu Xu rushed to Yang Guang's side at this time, and after killing several rebels who were trying to get close to the emperor, he said loudly: "The leader of the bandits, Yu Wenhuaji, has already been killed, and you will not surrender immediately." The voice was sent out by his strong internal force, It can be clearly heard throughout the palace.

Hearing that Yu Wenhuaji was dead, the rebellious imperial guards couldn't help panicking.

At this time, Yang Guang, who was still in shock, showed a trace of courage in his youth. It may be that Yu Wenhuaji reprimanded him just now and the crisis of life and death woke him up from his dream of being aloof.

Knowing that the situation was critical, Yang Guang said, "As long as you lay down your weapons, I will never blame you..." It may have been a long time since he shouted loudly, and before he finished speaking, he became short of breath and couldn't continue.

Sure enough, he was the emperor's man. A skinny camel was bigger than a horse, and it would not be dizzy at the critical moment. Liu Xu secretly praised in his heart, and quickly conveyed the emperor's meaning. After hearing the words, the rebels were even more commotion.

Slowly, with the efforts of Liu Xu and Dugu Sheng, the rebellion was finally put down, and Yu Wenzhi was also killed by Dugu Sheng's sword in the chaos.

After the incident was subdued, Emperor Sui Yang looked at the devastated palace and the many dead and injured concubines, a look of pain flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice: "Dugu Qing's family, is the situation in the world that the traitor said just now true? The Wagang bandit army has threatened Luoyang, and the Li Clan has also rebelled and occupied Chang'an?"

Dugu Sheng hurriedly knelt down and began to play: "Your Majesty, Shengming, this matter... this matter... is indeed true, but your majesty does not need to worry, as long as your majesty..."

"Enough!" Yang Guang waved his hand to stop Dugu Sheng from continuing, with a gloomy face, he muttered to himself: "I didn't expect my world to look like this..."

At this time, Yang Guang turned his attention to Liu Xu again.

After Liu Xu broke through to the realm of the master, his temperament changed. Affected by his aura, Yang Guang suddenly felt that Liu Xu was pleasing to the eye no matter what he looked at, and he was a trustworthy and loyal person. He said: "I am fortunate to have the help of a strong man this time to destroy the rebels. I have never spared rewards for those who have made meritorious deeds. What's your name?"

Liu Xu quickly fooled the emperor, saying that he was ordered by the emperor of heaven to help the emperor in the world, and briefly introduced the White Lotus Sect, saying that the White Lotus Sect was established under the order of the Emperor of Heaven to assist Yang Guang, the son of destiny.

Yang Guang was so fooled that he was so happy that he really thought that he was blessed by the destiny, that the emperor's luck was not broken, and that he could make things right with a little effort.

The remaining civil servants and military generals around were worried about being punished by this rebellion, but now seeing the emperor was happy, they immediately flattered and praised him.

At this time, Liu Xu said to Yang Guang: "Your Majesty, the Caomin have something to ask."

When Yang Guang was happy, he smiled and said: "Aiqing has made great contributions to the community, and I am about to reward you. As long as your request is not excessive, I will agree first."

Liu Xu pretended to be loyal and courageous, and said awe-inspiringly: "The grassroots were ordered by the Emperor of Heaven to establish the White Lotus Sect to assist the Holy One. On the one hand, it is to promote the teachings of the Emperor of Heaven, and on the other hand, it is necessary to promote the great virtue of the Holy One, which is beneficial to the world. However, due to the many ignorant people in the world, the missionary work has been progressing slowly. Now I implore the holy majesty to reward the handbook and allow the White Lotus Sect to preach in the territory of the Sui Dynasty."

Yang Guang laughed, and said: "It turns out that it is such a trivial matter. I will answer your request and order the establishment of Tiandi Temples in various places to worship the Emperor of Heaven, so that the White Lotus Sect can be preached together with Buddhism and Taoism."

Chapter 1394 From Darkness to Brightness, Building and Protecting the Teaching Army

Liu Xu was overjoyed, knowing that the White Lotus Sect had been recognized by the emperor, so it had the title of righteousness, and it could turn from the dark to the clear.

In the future, when fighting against the Buddhist bald donkey, with the order of the emperor, it is an orthodox religion that is equivalent to Buddhism and Taoism, and it is difficult to be classified as evil and heretics.

As for your belief in your Buddha, I believe in my Heavenly Emperor, it's just that everyone is talking about it.

The first goal has been achieved, and then, we must find a way to let Emperor Sui Yang return to the north.

After Liu Xu thanked him, he continued to analyze the current situation for the emperor.

In fact, after this change, the emperor already had the heart to return to the imperial capital Luoyang, but the biggest problem in returning to Luoyang from the north was Li Mi's Wagang Army.

At this time, the Wagang Army claimed to have 10 soldiers, and they forced Luoyang City, hindering the emperor's way to the north.

At this time, Liu Xu said: "My lord, Li Mi is actually just a disease of ringworm and scabies. I think that when the sage destroyed the Chen country in the south, rejected the Turks in the north, and his military strategy was powerful all over the world. The Wagangzhai bandits are just chickens and dogs. As long as the sage Once they arrive, they will be defeated at the first touch. First, the bandit army in Wagangzhai claims to be in the hundreds of thousands, but the actual number of elite soldiers with combat effectiveness is only [-] to [-]. Just killed Zhai Rang, the former bandit leader of Wagang Village, and brutally suppressed a group of dissidents. The people in Wagang Village are not stable, and the entire army lacks cohesion. As long as the battle situation is unfavorable for a while, the so-called army will collapse immediately Thirdly, the Holy Majesty's Forbidden Army all came from the north, and now they are very homesick, knowing that they can return to their hometown, the whole army must fight hard with their lives, and breaking the bandits is no problem."

Then he paused, and continued: "As long as the Holy Majesty can return to Luoyang and sit in the eastern capital, he will be invincible. Then he will gradually figure it out. With the prestige and talent of the Holy Majesty, Li Yuan and Dou Jiande will be able to survive in the future." Keke, it is just around the corner to restore the glory of the Great Sui Dynasty."

"Okay, Ai Qing said it well. Thinking about how I was able to rule the world in the Southern and Northern Wars, how can I be compared to Li Mi? After I cleared up the forbidden army, I will go north and return to Luoyang to let the world know who is the real master of the world!" Yang Guang's pale face was flushed like a flash of light, and he looked very excited.

Well, the second purpose is also achieved.
