Chapter 606: After the Old Age
"How much skill does he have, what's the matter with the prince?" Xiao E was still relieved of Yang Guang, and continued to persuade, "Besides, tonight is different from the past, on the way to the palace, didn't you see so many eunuchs in the palace on duty at night, how could the evil ghosts still come from the net?" However, the prince still needs to deal with official business during the day, so he must take care of his body. ”
"Only this night, only this night, after tonight, if there is no movement in the palace, I won't stay up late, okay, concubine?" Yang Guangchong raised his index finger at Xiao Er and asked her with a smile.
"Oh well. At the second watch, I will prepare some supper in this palace and wait for the prince. Xiao E stubbornly wanted to persuade Yang Guang not to patrol the night too late in this way.
Yang Guangda was moved, and couldn't help but take Xiao E's hand, and confided in her softly: "In this life, I have to meet the princess and Ruoxi together, what do you want for a husband!" ”
Xiao Er knew that Yang Guang had a deep affection for An Ruoxi, and he didn't mind that he mentioned An Ruoxi in front of him, but took the opportunity to persuade Yang Guang: "If Ruoxi is still there, I will not be relieved that the prince will go on a night patrol." Therefore, tonight, the concubine will wait until the prince returns from the night patrol and then go to rest. ”
Yang Guang was originally just a little curious about Yuan Stomach's recommendation of Guo Yan to patrol the palace alone, and wanted to take the opportunity to make an appointment with him to see his skills, but now when he heard that Xiao E was so relieved of himself, his heart softened, and he almost agreed to stay in Lanzhi Palace and no longer go to the night patrol.
"The prince should go early and return early, don't let the concubine wait too long."
After Xiao E's words, Yang Guangcai stood up and said to her: "Then I'll go now, try to rush back before the second watch to eat the supper prepared by the princess." He turned and walked out of the main hall.
"The prince is just patrolling the night with the last general with his bare hands? Take this knife first. Guo Yan followed Yang Guang out of Lanzhi Palace, only to find that Yang Guang did not carry a weapon, so he untied his saber and asked Yang Guang to take it.
"Tonight, does General Guo plan to patrol all over the Daxing Palace, or go to the outside of the Linshu Palace to lay in ambush and wait for the evil ghost to appear again?" Yang Guang wanted to see how Guo Yan's judgment and resourcefulness were first, so he didn't take the saber from his hand, but asked him as he walked.
"There is a prince with the last general to patrol the night, and the last general will naturally obey the orders of the prince." Guo Yan was very good at talking, so he replied naturally.
"You are General Yuanda's recommendation to your father to come to the palace to patrol the night and catch ghosts, this king is just curious, I want to follow General Guo to see what the evil ghost who broke into the forbidden palace to scare people looks like, and did not interfere with General Guo's power. Therefore, tonight's action is still dominated by General Guo, and this king only accompanies you. ”
"Since the prince said so, the last general might as well tell him directly. After patrolling back and forth in the palace every night, the last general plans to return to Lanzhi Palace, where the princess and princess live, to wait for the evil ghost to appear. Guo Yan replied without hesitation.
"Why didn't you go to the Linshu Palace, where the evil ghost had already appeared, and the scared people went to ambush and squat, but chose to wait for the rabbit in Lanzhi Palace, why did you expect that the evil ghost would definitely come to Lanzhi Palace?" Yang Guang stopped in surprise, turned around, looked directly at Guo Yan, and asked.
"The last general is not ten percent sure that he can wait for that evil ghost to appear in Lanzhi Palace. However, the last general thinks that the princess of Jin is known as a goddess, and she is specially invited to live in the palace by the mother in order to shock the evil spirit in the palace, if you want to disturb the hearts of the people in the palace, the first thing is to break the halo of the goddess on the top of the head of the princess of Jin, so as to prove that even if the goddess enters the palace, he can't do anything, only in this way can he achieve the goal he wants to achieve. ”
"Listening to the meaning of the general's words, dare to love this evil ghost without fear of divine shock. I didn't expect that such a powerful evil ghost had broken into the Forbidden Palace. Yang Guang squinted at Guo Yan and teased.
The prince said with a smile, the last general grew up in the mountains and jungles since he was a child, and he had only seen jackals, tigers and leopards in the past, but he had never seen them, and he didn't believe that there were any demons and monsters in this world at all. Therefore, even though the last general did not see what the demon looked like, he could still assume that it must have been disguised by someone and was not a real demon. Guo Yan was forced by Yang Guang's words, so he had to tell him what he really thought in his heart.
Yang Guang did not clearly respond to Guo Yan's heartfelt words, and continued to walk forward with him, turning his face sideways and asking him: "The general grew up in the mountains and jungles since he was a child, how could he have the opportunity to join the forbidden army and prepare for a thousand oxen?" ”
"It's a shame to say, the last general was able to enter the right leading army to prepare for a thousand cattle, one to rely on his father's shadow, and the other to rely on the tall general's strength."
"Who is your father, who is a dignitary in the court, why did he leave you in the mountains and jungles?" Yang Guang heard Guo Yan say half a sentence, so he broke the casserole and asked to the end.
"My father was originally a member of the army in the house of the former prime minister of the previous dynasty, and died in front of the two armies when he followed the rebellion of the saint to pacify the captain Chi Hui, when the last general lived in the old house of Xiangzhou with his mother, forced by the rebels, and fled to the deep mountains and old forests to avoid trouble, and since then he has lived in the mountains and forests for nearly ten years, until last year, when the senior general was ordered to inspect the Kanto area, he ordered people to find my mother and son in the mountains and forests. Guo Yan replied truthfully.
Yang Guang listened to Guo Yan's introduction of his family background and experience, and suddenly said in his heart: No wonder Guo Yan made a four-grade Qianniu preparation at a young age, and entered the Forbidden Palace Guard, it turned out that his father was the old department in the Prime Minister's Mansion when his father Yang Jian was the prime minister in the previous dynasty.
Yang Guang knew that his father Yang Jian had always been close to each other, and what he valued most was the group of subordinates, old ministries and their descendants who had followed him from birth to death before the opening of the Sui Dynasty and quelled the tripartite rebellion.
"Who is the tall general you are talking about, and how come I have never heard of this person?"
"It's Shangshu's left servant who shoots Gao Gong, how could the prince have never heard of him."
Yang Guang only knew that after Yu Wenxin, who was formerly the general of the right leading army, was given death due to rebellion, the position of the general of the right leading army had been vacant, but he didn't know that Shangshu's left servant Gao Ying had concurrently served as the general of the right leading army as soon as Yuwen Xin was given death, so he didn't dare to underestimate the guard general who claimed to be relying on his father Yin Shi Brown to prepare for a thousand cows, and saw that the two of them had unconsciously walked to the vicinity of the Shooting Hall where the evil ghost had appeared last night and scared people to death, so he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the Shooting Palace, and said to Guo Yan: " Let's take a look around the Shooting Temple. ”
