Chapter 694: Ridiculous Assassination

This assassination can be said to be absurd!

The strength of the assassin was only in the middle stage of the innate realm, so the guards protecting the imperial city did not find it, and the guards protecting the emperor's periphery did not find it either.

The close guard of the Yinkui sect elder Wei Lianhua was temporarily called away, and another royal master surnamed Yang was also distracted by other things.

As a result, the assassin appeared directly in front of Yang Guang and stabbed him!

If the royal master surnamed Yang had not reacted in time, warning and scaring away the assassin, and then Wei Lianhua arrived in time, it would be unknown what would have happened.

It is said that Yang Guang was scared!

He immediately strengthened the guards around him, but he was occasionally awakened by nightmares.

In fact, those who understand know that the assassin would never harm Yang Guang's life!

But the fright of the person involved is definitely not so light that it can be fooled.

Damn, this is not a big deal, right?

Soon, Li Yuan got the actual official position: the governor of Jiuquan County!

Ahem, Jia Huan was in a very subtle mood after hearing the news.

Obviously, Yang Guang was not a fool, he wanted to suppress the rhythm of the Li family.

Arrange the head of the Li family to Jiuquan, and the future will be good.

This is the sphere of influence of the Taoist lineage. Even if the ancestral home of the Li family is not far away in Longxi Chengji, it is impossible to break out of the suppression of the Taoist lineage.

Unless the Taoist lineage's host Zuo Youxian and the second host Jia Huan all died inexplicably.

The most miserable one is Xue Shixiong, the general manager of Yumen Pass, who told the general manager's mansion and Jiuquan County Magistrate's Mansion are close.

Subsequent news came that a Buddhist master participated in the assassination, but there was no conclusive evidence!

Is this, a bet on the Li family early?

Jia Huan understood instantly, and his heart was nothing but disdain.

Damn, the ability is not great but the mind is not small, I don't know where the Buddhists got the confidence to play like this?

Strangely, after such an incident, Yang Guang did not ask the Yinkui Sect to send more experts to guard, nor did he ask the Yin Queen Zhu Yuyan to go back to protect.

Under his arrangement, powerful and prestigious relatives of the royal family were arranged to serve around Luoyang.

For example, Yang Lin, the King of Backers with great military exploits, became a general of the Imperial Guard.

The entire Eastern Capital Luoyang was filled with a strange atmosphere, as if something big was about to happen.

In fact, anyone with a keen sense of smell basically noticed this.

Jia Huan was no exception. With Yang Guang's personality, how could he not have a fierce reaction at all.

I guess he was holding back a big move, which is not a good thing!

As expected, three months after Yang Guang was assassinated, this guy suddenly announced a southern tour to Jiangdu!

The news did not cause much waves.

Yang Guang was an emperor who loved to tour. Since he ascended the throne, he has been on tour most of the time.

Jiangdu is the place where Yang Guang started his career. There are also luxurious palaces along the river there, ready to receive Yang Guang in person at any time. There is nothing strange about it.

Jia Huan knew what was going on when he heard the news. Yang Guang was afraid and wanted to take refuge in Jiangdu?

With such a strong ability to withstand pressure, Yang Guang was not suitable to continue to be the emperor.

It's a pity that he couldn't let go of the power of the emperor. Even if he died, he had to hold on to the title of the emperor.

If he retreated at this time, passed the throne to his son, and became an emperor in Jiangdu.

Maybe the delicate political situation of the Great Sui Empire will change for the better.

As long as he is still alive and has a group of elite soldiers in his hands, no matter how the new emperor performs, the ambitious aristocratic families will not dare to act rashly. At least they have to wait until Yang Guang dies before they dare to go further.

Otherwise, if it's not good, the whole world will attack him together, and no aristocratic family can bear it!

Unfortunately, this is just Jia Huan's thought. If Yang Guang was willing to abdicate so easily, he would not be Yang Guang. He would definitely not dare to gamble his life on the conscience of the next emperor.

Therefore, the subsequent situation is probably similar to normal history.

Of course, Jia Huan's rebirth has changed many things, especially the existence of nearly one million elite Sui troops. The current situation of the Great Sui Empire is much better than the same period of normal history.

At least, the momentum of the various rebels is not as strong as in the original historical period.

Wagangzhai is really just a mountain stronghold, and it did not take advantage of the situation to expand.

The rebel army under the Changbai Mountain Wang Bo had been extinguished long ago. If it were not for the protection of the Guandong family, I am afraid that I would have died long ago.

The situation of the other rebels was not much better, and they were all suppressed to the point of being almost unable to breathe.

This is normal. Jia Huan's intervention caused Yang Guang to not dare to continue to madly exploit the people's power!

After the officials below were madly killed by the masked knights in bamboo hats, they did not dare to act recklessly.

This led to the fact that although the resentment of the laborers was great, it was not to the point of boiling over.

Not to mention, the group of laborers with the most complaints had already moved to the northwest border with their families.

At this time, the construction of the Grand Canal had been completed, and the major projects were basically completed.

The people of the world also got a chance to breathe.

Under such circumstances, the number of people willing to take the initiative to join the uprising army was naturally much less than that of the same period in history, and the momentum could not be raised.

Not only that, with the opening of the Silk Road in the Western Regions, a large amount of wealth rolled into the Central Plains.

Even if the big head was taken away by the powerful, the rest could still make the people with interests gradually richer.

For example, the industrial chains related to silk production, tea production, porcelain production, and many other special products in the Central Plains have all begun to flourish.

With money in hand, people naturally live a comfortable life. How could they take the initiative to join the rebels?

Once a large amount of money circulates, it will have a very good driving effect on the healthy operation of the entire Great Sui society, at least life will have a bright future.

In normal history, how did the Zhenguan Reign and the Kaiyuan Prosperity come about? It was the result of the development of the Silk Road. Otherwise, it would take a lot of time and energy to explore internal potential.

It can be said that the internal situation of the Great Sui Empire was still quite stable at this time.

At this time, if Yang Guang did not take the initiative to make trouble, at least he would have no problem living to die peacefully.

These, and Jia Huan and the lineage of the Taoist ancestor behind him, are both big and small.

The lineage of the Taoist ancestor only needs to stabilize the newly occupied Western Regions and make the Silk Road run smoothly, which is the best feedback to the Great Sui Empire.

The Central Plains Dao Sect, however, was greatly influenced by the Daoist Ancestor True Transmission Lineage, and began to recruit disciples on a large scale and send them to the Western Regions to participate in the Dao Sect's development plan.

They imitated the Daoist Ancestor True Transmission Lineage and set up courses for their own Daoist studies.

All the good seedlings with outstanding talents were carefully cultivated as Daoist seeds.

The Daoist Ancestor True Transmission Lineage also fanned the flames from time to time. When they occupied new territories in the Western Regions, they would share one or two Taoist temples with the various major Daoist sects in the Central Plains, which made the various major Daoist sects in the Central Plains red-eyed.

The various major Daoist sects in the Central Plains were quite clear about the situation of the Taoist temples in various places in the Western Regions. They were local tyrants in a city or a place. Who wouldn't want them?
