Chapter 266: Death Row Prisoner Asks

"Lord Yang is serious." Gu Yi hurriedly coordinated and said: "Wei Gong means that it is rare for adults to go back to Chang'an, and they should spend a few more days, and adults are absolutely free in Chang'an." When an adult comes back, he will have a business trip, and how can he be trapped somewhere and not go anywhere; Yang Xuangan's rebellion is blazing, and there are many disputes in the left-behind division, and there are still many places where adults need help to solve their doubts. ”

Yang Chong secretly said that the dog that bites people doesn't bark, Gu Yi said it nicely, but he was actually asking himself why he came back for, and why was the time of the rebellion with Yang Xuangan so coincidental? Yang Chong arched his hand and replied: "I came back to report the victory, and second, I want to discuss with you what to do later?" I brought with me two thousand Turkic horses, all of which were the booty of Iwu; However, it is better to have fewer wars on the border, and I want to open a crushing ground and start trading with the Turks. There are also some private matters. ”

Gu Yi and the others understood that Yang Chong's return was mainly a private matter, but it was because Yang Chong broke the Turkic 20,000 cavalry this time, and sending 2,000 horses to Chang'an Shangshutai was regarded as a hush money for Chang'an Shangshutai. Yang Chong was able to agree to stay in Chang'an as a hostage, and explained the reason for the delay on the road, Wei Xuan's tone softened a little and said: "Yang Chong, you go back to rest first, I will never lose my word about what I promised you, and the political affairs will be discussed in Shangshutai tomorrow." ”

Yang Chong nodded and said: "Gong Wei, the people who sent them to Yiwu arranged for a person who can do things to lead the team, and the people who go must be voluntary, I don't want to get a group of people full of grievances to do things." Several high-ranking officials agreed, Yang Chong needs them, it must be for the purpose of being officials, if you want labor, these people are really not this material, not to mention the two consecutive disasters in the Central Plains, now two thousand war horses can buy tens of thousands of refugees.

Gu Yi made people announce that the beheading was postponed, the case was retried, and there was applause among the death row prisoners and spectators, and many people cried with joy; Both the more than 2,000 prisoners and the 3,000 officers and soldiers preparing to execute were physically and mentally exhausted. Executive Officer Luo Rong heard that some people could be released, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he was not willing to kill his colleagues like this, according to the conditions prescribed by Wei Xuan, he could always bring back some people's lives.

"Wait." Someone in the crowd who was about to be tortured shouted, and a big man with an anklet squeezed out despite the soldiers' obstruction. The big man was burly, his face was terrifying, and there was still a scar on his forehead, he staggered to the front of the prison beheading platform, held the chain in his hand, stared at Yang Chong on the stage and said: "My name is Xiang Yizu, I am a nine-rank member of Yingyang Mansion to join the army, I just want to know, what can I do when I go to the Western Regions?" If I just go to die, I would rather die here, so that I don't have a lot of fear and discomfort before I die. ”

Yang Chong looked at Xiang Yizu and said, "Is dying in the Western Regions the same as dying here?" There, every castle faces foreign enemies, you are for the Great Sui, for the sake of the thousands of Li people in the Central Plains, here, you are just a traitor who would rather kill the wrong one. Not to mention whether your reputation is tainted, your family, friends, colleagues, and subordinates will be implicated later, as for the fear and discomfort on the battlefield, no one can help you, you are not afraid of death, are you still afraid of these? ”

Xiang Yizu pouted and said, "Yang Chong, don't scare me, Lao Tzu has also been on the battlefield." ”

Yang Chong said resolutely: "Then you should understand that human life is not valuable, and going to the Western Regions is your chance to live, and it is also an opportunity to wash away your shame." Yang Xuangan rebelled, you didn't participate, but you were used by some people with ulterior motives, this is fate, you have a chance, why don't you want to prove yourself? ”

Xiang Yizu was dumbfounded for a while, Wei Xuan's face was gloomy enough to kill, and the Yin World Master hurriedly signaled Luo Rong to escort the prisoner away; As the prisoners were brought back to the prison, the crowd of onlookers dispersed. Yang Chong said goodbye to Wei Xuan and the others, walked down the prison platform, and saw Yu Wenkai, who was already standing next to the carriage, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted; Yu Wenkai picked up Yang Chong and said, "It's so good, junior brother, I didn't expect to see you in Chang'an, how did you talk to Wei Xuan?" ”

Yang Chong said the matter discussed on the stage, Yu Wenkai nodded and said: "You are stronger than me, when my second brother rebelled, I didn't dare to say a word, which led to how many innocent people were killed by mistake." Sikong Xing and others also because of this reason, how many years have they been slaves in the Western Regions, until they met you, they changed their luck, and I heard that now you are majestic in the Western Regions. ”

Yang Chong said with a wry smile: "One will succeed in ten thousand bones, but unfortunately the Turkic, Tiele and other ethnic groups are strong, from top to bottom only recognize strength, some wars just have to be, fortunately, God blesses the Great Sui, and wins the battle again and again." Uncle Tiger and Rutong are all fine, but we are now at a crossroads. ”

Yu Wenkai and Yuan Hui Shitai, Sun Simiao, Shuai Guozhen and others who came over nodded frequently, Wei Xuan sharpened his knife in Chang'an, and everyone knew it; As for the twists and turns in it, the public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother said that the mother was reasonable, and Yang Chong saved people today, which was equivalent to pouring a basin of sewage on his head. Yuan Hui Shitai caught Yuan Xianren and reprimanded: "Dead girl, I know that I ran away, and I tell you that it's not worth it, and men don't have a good thing." ”

Master Yuan Hui is too spicy, he doesn't care about Yang Chong's presence at all, and he hits a rake when he opens his mouth; Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Yang Chong was a little embarrassed, so he could only shrug his shoulders and walk to the side. Yuan Xianren grabbed Yuan Hui's hand and said with a sweet smile: "Auntie, Yang Chong is not this kind of person. ”

"Not that kind of person?" Yuan Wuji, who came with him, said with a smile: "In this way, Yang Chong originally came back to propose marriage this time, Yang Chong, now you are worth tens of millions, and the dowry is indispensable." ”

The Yuan family is the gate valve Gaodi, and the concubine Yuan Xiren is a concubine who surrenders her identity to be a concubine, Yang Chong has no parents alive, and Yang Chong really has to come back by himself if he wants to propose marriage; Yuan Xianren was said by the clan uncle, his face was as red as a cloud, and he was about to slip into the carriage, but was dragged by Yuan Hui Shitai. Yang Chong sneered and said: "Senior brother, this matter will trouble you, tomorrow I will ask Yuan Hongzhao to send the contract of the two restaurants in Fengle Lou over, and you can help me go to the Yuan family to propose marriage." ”

Fengle Lou is a business that makes money every day, and Yang Chong said publicly that it is not to show off his wealth, but to show his sincerity to Mrs. Yuan Hui and himself; Yuan Wuji nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yang Chong, yes, I support you." If Yuan Min doesn't agree, I'll help you find a beautiful and sensible girl in the Yuan family. ”

"The meta is inexhaustible." Yuan Hui Shitai saw that Yuan Xianren's head was hanging more and more to the ground, and immediately shouted to stop Yuan's inexhaustible joke; Yu Wenkai smiled: "I'll leave this matter to me." However, Yang Chong, in the front, even if you are engaged, Miss Yuan will drift with you, and I am afraid that it will be three years later to get married. ”

After Yuan Shou, the grandfather of Yuan Xiren, died in Liaodong, Yuan Min was worried at home and returned to Chang'an from Zhuo County; It's okay to get married, but it's definitely difficult to get married. Yang Chong said understandingly: "I and the raider also want to get married after the world is stable, no problem." ”
