Yang Guang was completely immersed in gritting his teeth and hatred for Li Yuan's whistleblowing, so much so that he didn't realize that his father Yang Jian's position on the matter of cutting off food in his own house was very rare and completely different from that of his mother Dugu Jialuo.

Zhang Xutuo, who must have followed him to the East Palace like a tail to borrow grain from the prince, reported the food interruption to Li Yuan, and Li Yuan told his father and queen mother the secret, so that he made a fool of himself in public and lost face.

Yang Guanghuai was resentful of Li Yuan and Zhang Xutuo, and repeatedly admitted his mistakes and repented to Yang Jian, only then did he get Yang Jian's forgiveness, allowed him to withdraw from Zhengyang Palace, and went back to his house to think about it behind closed doors. He walked out of the gate of Zhengyang Palace without saying a word, thinking about how to avoid Li Yuan, who must be waiting for him outside the palace gate at this time, and return home alone. Before he could go far, he heard Sun Sheng, the eldest son behind him, call him: "Your Highness, stay and stay, I have something to say." ”

Yang Guang had no choice but to stop, turned around and bowed to Changsun Sheng, and asked, "Is Mr. going back to the house with me to teach?" ”

"Your Majesty asked me to write a note on the details of the Turkic khanate tribes and submit it, I am afraid that I will not have time to go to His Highness's mansion today and tomorrow, and this is the first thing I want to say to His Highness." Eldest Sun Sheng pulled Yang Guang to a nearby place where no one was, and then asked Yang Guang without worry, "Has Your Highness ever noticed anything special about the attitude of the Holy Upper to the matter of His Highness's mansion running off food?" ”

After being reminded by the eldest Sun Sheng, Yang Guang concentrated his energy, thought about it carefully, and replied uncertainly: "It seems that the attitude of the father and the queen mother towards this matter is not quite the same, as for how it is different, I can't say, and ask Mr. to teach me." ”

Although Changsun Sheng tried his best to resign from Yang Jian and refused to formally accept Yang Guang as an apprentice, once Yang Guang respectfully bowed to him in front of everyone, and the two had the status of master and apprentice, Changsun Sheng subconsciously began to stand in Yang Guang's position and consider the problem for him.

He had already understood what Yang Jian really wanted to say to Yang Guang from Yang Jian's seemingly unpredictable words in the palace before, but he saw that Yang Guang was still calm at first, and when Yang Jian reminded him that Li Yuan was the one who entered the palace to inform, Yang Guang fell into an angry mood, and kept wandering until he withdrew from Zhengyang Palace. Out of concern for the newly accepted apprentice, Eldest Sun Sheng hurriedly withdrew from Zhengyang Palace with Yang Guang, wanting to remind him to follow the direction Yang Jian pointed out to him, so as not to go wrong in a fit of anger and cause any more trouble.

"If it's not bad as I expected, at this moment, Tang Guocheng is waiting for Your Highness outside the palace gate. Today's matter, in my opinion, Tang Guogong does not have much malice towards His Royal Highness, I hope that His Highness will not be too concerned, but need to carefully figure out the meaning of His Majesty's advice to you, and do not do wrong things on the spur of the moment. Changsun Sheng sincerely persuaded Yang Guangdao in a half-teacher, half-friend tone.

Yang Guang was confused when he heard this, and asked Changsun Sheng rhetorically: "Sir, just now in the main hall of Zhengyang Palace, I am afraid of my father's majesty, my mind is in a trance, and I have not comprehended my father's holy will. ”

The eldest grandson Sheng has both civil and military skills, if he talks about the furrow in his chest, he is not inferior to Gao Ying and Su Wei, who are the courtiers, and his mind changed at the moment, so he did not say it clearly, but he was patient and asked Yang Guangdao: "If Your Highness is not in a hurry to return home, can you listen to me here tell a legend that is widely spread among the Turkic tribes to His Highness, and maybe it will enlighten His Highness to comprehend the holy will." ”

Yang Guang didn't want to listen to all the Turkic legends and stories, but he wasn't sure what the Turkic tribal legends that Changsun Sheng wanted to tell him and his father's expectations for him had anything in common, so he nodded at that time and listened to Changsun Sheng tell the ancient legend.

"When I was in the East Palace last night, Your Highness heard me say that the Turks regard wolves as their ancestors, and their clothes and banners are mostly decorated with wolf heads. Today I want to tell Your Highness why the Turks have such a high respect for the wolf. Changsun Sheng raised his head and looked at the north, his voice seemed very long.

"Sir, I still remember that it is said that one of the early leaders of the Turkic tribe lived with wolves for many years and received a lot of favors from wolves, so the Turks under his rule regarded wolves as mythical beasts."

"Not bad. It was under his leadership that the originally scattered Turkic tribes were united, rose up and defeated the Rouran, who had enslaved the Turks for many years, and embarked on the road of prosperity. Ashina Nishigu has lived with wolves for many years, and he keenly observed that in fact, in the animal world outside the crowd, the living environment of wolves is extremely harsh. Because they are born to feed on meat, they can only rely on slaughtering weaker animals than them to survive, in terms of strength, wolves are far inferior to tigers, leopards and lions roar, in terms of predation speed, wolves can not be compared with the eagles and falcons in the sky, but whether it is in the mountains around the Turkic tribes, or in the vast grasslands in the north, the number of wolves is far more than other birds of prey, in other words, the wolf's ability to survive is higher than any other kind of birds of prey. Ashina Nishigu found that wolves have a skill that other beasts do not have, that is, they are very good at foraging in groups, and in the process of foraging for food, the division of labor is clear, and the tacit understanding is coordinated, and the success rate is extremely high. When the head wolf of the wolf pack goes out to forage for food, he only needs to choose a high mountain slope to stop, raise his head to the sky and groan, and dozens or hundreds of majestic male wolves will rush to the prey, and after the prey is captured, the male wolves will first present the best prey to the head wolf. The head wolf does not need to charge, not only can he get the fattest prey, but he also has the power to distribute the food of the wolf pack. It was from the head wolf in the wolf pack that Ashina Nishigu learned the extremely valuable way of gathering and controlling the crowd, and after returning to the Turkic tribes, he successfully gathered the originally scattered and scattered Turkic tribes together, formed a fierce and tenacious Turkic army like a wolf pack, and finally defeated the powerful enemy. ”

Changsun Sheng almost finished telling the story of Ashina Nishi Gu and the wolves in one breath, and looked at Yang Guang with expectation, trying to find a sudden reaction from his face, but he saw Yang Guang's face showing a yearning expression, and he didn't see that he had the intention of introspection, so he couldn't help but sigh softly, and nodded Yang Guang and said: "Your Highness, don't look at the head wolf in the wolf pack has supreme authority, if you talk about the process of selecting the head wolf in the wolf pack, it is full of bloody and cruel competition." Often, a wolf is chosen, and the strong male wolf that can match it in the pack is almost completely dead and wounded. The head wolf is not born, but needs to stand out from his peers. Does Your Highness understand? ”
