    But before Yang Guang¡¯s great cause had begun, earth-shattering news came from Hedong.  Yang Liang, the king of Han Dynasty, raised troops in Bingzhou to rebel on the grounds that "Qing Jun sided with Yang Su".

    Yang Jian was seriously ill in Renshou Palace. After Yang Liang got the news, he asked several times to return to Beijing to take care of his illness.  At that time, Yang Jian did not expect that his illness would worsen later. He was worried that first naming Yang Zhao as the emperor's grandson, and that if Yang Liang returned to Beijing, Yang Guang would be overly stimulated, so he rejected Yang Liang's request.

    But later Yang Liang became seriously ill, and coupled with the rebellion between Yang Yan and Liu Shu, in order to avoid possible turmoil, Yang Guang recruited Yang Liang to return to the court.

    At this time, Yang Liang was very happy after receiving the order and galloped southward to return to Chang'an.  However, Yang Liang also had backup in Chang'an. When Yang Liang arrived in Puban, news came that Yang Jian had died of illness.  Yang Liang was shocked when he heard the letter. He felt that if he returned to Chang'an, his life would be in danger.  Therefore, under the instigation of his subordinates, Yang Liang hurriedly led his troops back to Bingzhou.

    After Yang Guang learned about Yang Liang's escape back to Bingzhou, he could only lament his bad luck and lost the great opportunity to solve the Hedong problem.  Because the central government was not well prepared and Yang Guang did not want to overly stimulate Yang Liang, he pretended not to know and ordered Qu Tutong to go to Jinyang (southwest of today's Taiyuan City) with the seal of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty to conquer the Han Dynasty King Yang Liang and join Yang Jian's campaign.  funeral.

    "Father is dead. No matter what reasons you have this time, it's time to return to Beijing."

    By this time, Yang Liang already knew about Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty's decision to annex the prefecture and Xingtai before his death, and he was also worried about the bad relationship between himself and Yang Guang's father and son. If he returned to Beijing at this time, he might not be safe.

    At this time, counselor Pei Wen'an came up with a plan to deceive the emperor and see if he wanted to harm the king of Han.  Therefore, after meeting Qu Tutong, Yang Liangnai said: "When I left the capital alone, I had a conversation with the late emperor. The late emperor once said, 'If there is a seal calling you, check and add dots in the imperial edict, and it will match the jade lin talisman.  You have been ordered to go on the road. 'Today you come to Bingzhou with the imperial edict from the late emperor. Why is there no word "edict" in this edict?"

    Qu Tutong had never heard of this and was shocked. He didn't know whether it was true or not, so he could only evade his words and not answer.  Yang Liangnai angrily accused Qu Tutong of lying to the court and there must be something fishy about the emperor's death, so he refused to accept the decree.

    Everyone requested that Qu Tutong be detained to defy the imperial court.  Yang Liang knew that although Qu Tutong's official position was not high, he had always had a reputation in the court. No matter whether he was executed or detained, it would be meaningless, but would attract criticism.  Therefore, Yang Liang did not detain him, but released him back to the court.

    Yang Liang refused to accept Yang Guang's edict, which was regarded as a rift with the court.

    In fact, Yang Liang's rebellion was not a sudden move on his head, but something he had already prepared.  He knew that he was at odds with his second brother Yang Guang, so at the beginning, Yang Liang hoped that he could legally succeed to the throne just like Yang Guang overthrew Prince Min Yang Yong.

    But since Yang Zhao won the Northern Expedition and was named the emperor's grandson, Yang Liang knew that his path would not work.  Yang Guang and Yang Zhao, father and son, were so powerful and so popular that even if Yang Guang died, Yang Zhao would succeed him as the heir apparent and it would not be his turn at all.

    At this point, Yang Liang was ready to seize power by force.  Relying on the powerful strength in his hands, even if he cannot become the emperor, he must separate himself from one side and no longer be controlled by Yang Guang and his son.

    As the youngest child of Yang Jian and Empress Dugu, Yang Liang was favored since childhood. As the governor of Bingzhou, his jurisdiction covers fifty-two states from the east of Mount Laoshan to Canghai and south to the Yellow River, which is equivalent to a quarter of the world.  one.  Yang Jian also granted Yang Liang permission to act expediently in the fiefdom and not adhere to legal provisions.

    This made Yang Liang the de facto ruler north of the river.  Throughout the ages, and in the entire history of China, there has never been a vassal king with such power and power.

    Yang Liang dared to rebel not because he was arrogant, but because he really had the strength.  The area north of the river has been a gathering place for elite soldiers from all over the world since ancient times. The Jin Kingdom dominated the Spring and Autumn Period, and Liu Xiu founded the Eastern Han Dynasty from here.  After the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Hebei region, as the core of the Northern Qi Dynasty, had always been disobedient to the Guanzhong government. Since Yuchijiong's rebellion in Xiangzhou, this confrontation continued until the fall of the Tang Dynasty.

    Because Yang Liang himself has great power, he is surrounded by a large number of Northern Qi Dynasty veterans and children who are dissatisfied with the Guanzhong government. These huge political resources and the middle and lower-level forces he controls allow Yang Liang to mobilize enough power to confront the central government.

    Moreover, Yang Liang had hundreds of thousands of troops. He thought that if he advanced, he could compete with the central government, and if he retreated, he could protect Shandong.

    Since Prince Min Yang Yong was deposed, Yang Liang became alert.  When Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, was convicted, Yang Liang was extremely uneasy, "If this continues, the next piece of fish on the chopping board will belong to him."

    The main purpose of setting up the Bingzhou General Manager is to defend against Turks.  ???At this time Yang Liang wrote to the emperor: "The Turks are in a period of strength and should repair their armaments."

    In order to fight against the central government, during the Renshou years, Yang Liang recruited craftsmen and servants on a large scale, built weapons, and recruited desperadoes. He had nearly tens of thousands of personal followers around him.  Later, the Turks were defeated, but the army he recruited to defend against the Turks did not disband.

    If these are just a comparison of strength, in terms of politics and propaganda, Yang Liang also began to prepare for rebellion.

    At this time, there was such a folk song circulating in Bingzhou, "One piece of paper, two pieces of paper, treat a child as an emperor." This kind of folk song is too targeted, and few people dare to spread it directly.  But this ballad, which has no logic and no connotation, is widely circulated in Bingzhou.

    When this nursery rhyme reached the ears of Han Wang Yang Liang, it was unknown how long it had been circulating in Bingzhou.

    The civil and military officials around Yang Liang also discussed this a lot. Some people said that it was deliberately fabricated by some people with evil intentions who wanted to encourage Yang Liang to rebel; some believed that it was a prophecy that represented the will of God; and many more said that they had no knowledge of it.  .  As for the truth, I'm afraid no one can tell.

    However, King Yang Liang of Han Dynasty had his own unique explanation for this. He believed that "the word "Ake" for Guyou is the same as "Liang" and "Liang". Since Gu is the youngest in the royal family, this prophecy indicates that Gu should be the emperor."  Yang Liang attached great importance to this nursery rhyme, and carefully analyzed it against his own name, and found that the two were surprisingly consistent.  As a result, he strengthened his determination to become emperor.

    It¡¯s no wonder that Yang Liang was superstitious. Things like prophecies can always be justified most of the time, so they are highly sought after by people at the time.  At this time, stories such as "The one who succeeded the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaoye" and the Northern Qi Dynasty's "Ana destroyed your country" were popular among the people. How could Yang Liang not pay attention to this.

    There are countless solutions to this prophecy, but Yang Liang thinks he has found the most suitable solution.

    Seeing that everything was ready except for the east wind, Yang Liang himself believed that he had no way out. Therefore, Yang Liang found his confidants to discuss the matter of raising an army.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
