Yang Xuangan rushed to the door of the East Palace, and shouted: "The Chai guards are here?" Yang Xuangan is here! ”

Two heads poked out of the palace wall, one was Chai Shao, and the other was Wang Bodang, Wang Bodang was surprised when he saw Yang Xuangan: "General Yang, you are here!" Haha, I knew you wouldn't leave us alone. ”

Yang Xuangan smiled slightly: "I went home to gather people, and I had to put on the armor again, which delayed a little time, and I met with the people of the Pushan County Mansion on the way, so I didn't come until now." ”

When Chai Shao heard this, his face was full of excitement: "Really? Great, there are only 200 people left in the East Palace just now, and there are not enough people to even arrange for the defense on the wall, but now that there are reinforcements, it should be able to defend. ”

Yang Xuangan looked at Wang Bodang, smiled, and said, "I remember that when General Yuwen left, he only ordered a small group of cavalry to be left, why is the Wang team here?" ”

Wang Bodang couldn't give up his hand on the wall, so he had to nod and said: "The villain took the initiative to ask General Yuwen to stay, the cavalry alone can't be defended, there must be bows and arrows, the villain knows the armory in the East Palace, and he can take out the crossbow arrows inside for everyone to use, so General Yuwen allowed the villain to mention yì and let the villain come back to assist in the defense, by the way, when the army goes out of the city, the villain's team happens to be the guard, and it is also responsible for closing the city gate." ”

Yang Xuan sighed "oh": "General Yuwen left the city so soon?" ”

Wang Bodang nodded: "Everyone has already prepared their mounts, and the general gave an order." The whole team was mounted at the same time, and the princess's carriage was also prepared early in the morning, and General Yuwen personally escorted the carriage out of the city in the middle of the riding formation. Our horses are all good horses, and we can run back and forth from here to the city gate in half an hour. ”

Yang Xuangan smiled slightly: "I see, my people are all on foot, naturally they are not as fast as your horses, and I didn't encounter any trouble when I went out of the city!" ”

Wang Bodang's face changed: "General Yuwen came out of the Hualin Gate in the north, and there was no one there, and the little one felt strange when he went out of the city." But he didn't dare to say more and see more, so he came back directly after closing the city gate. ”

Yang Xuangan felt a dark cloud floating in his heart, and said, "Get ready for battle." Let my people in first, give them more crossbow arrows, and arrange for people to go to the palace wall to defend. ”

Yang Xuangan turned his horse's head and ran to the palace gate to lead more than 1,000 swordsmen including Hongfu into the East Palace. It was still the crossbowmen who dragged last. The crossbow arrows pointed at the long palace passage outside, covering the swordsmen from entering through the gate of the East Palace, which was not very wide.

Yang Xuangan has always stood on the outside, once there is any change, he will immediately rush out to block the enemy, in this narrow passage, he believes that he can be a master, ten thousand people do not open.

Wait until the last crossbowman also retreats behind the palace gate. Chai Shao said to Yang Xuan: "General Yang, come in." ”

Yang Xuangan shook his head: "Chai Shao." Here you have the highest rank, and you are in charge of guarding it first. Remember, you must watch Yang Yong's family, and if you can't hold it, put Yang Yong to death first! He must not be left to the enemy to plague the country! ”

Chai Shao's face changed, his expression became solemn, and he asked, "But the emperor didn't give this order?" ”

Yang Xuangan interrupted Chai Shao's words: "The emperor gave me the right to act cheaply, this order is to act cheaply, go and follow it, I am going to go to Yuwen Mansion now and bring their people back, General Yuwen said that his grandson is called the hero of Yuwen Chengdu, I just happened to see it!" ”

Yang Xuangan clamped the belly of the black cloud between his legs, and shouted "go", the four hooves of the black cloud flew, and in a blink of an eye, he ran out for dozens of zhang, and the voices of Chai Shao and Wang Bodang came from far behind: "General Yang!" Take care! ”

Yang Xuangan rode alone in the empty street market, and his heart gradually became uneasy, just now after all, there were hundreds of thousands of people behind him, and now he has become a complete lonely, contacting those strong men who mysteriously disappeared outside the city gate, he is quickly imagining all kinds of possibilities in his heart.

Unconsciously, Yang Xuangan had already run to the lively tavern street scene Fengmen Street, as long as he crossed this street, turned right and could enter Baiguanfang and go straight to Yuwenshu's mansion.

Yang Xuan felt sweat in his palms, this feeling like running in a dead city was really bad, he didn't expect that since chasing Yang Jian, who ran away angrily because of the incident of Wei Chinu, he was running at full speed in Daxing City for the first time in several years.

Suddenly, Yang Xuangan noticed that there was something strange about the street in front of him, a tavern on the right did not have a door board, which was in stark contrast to the situation where every household on the road was closed, and from a distance, there was actually a person sitting at the table drinking wine in the store.

Every hair on Yang Xuangan's body stood up, as if he could smell the danger on the street in front of him.

He slowed down the pace of the black clouds, carefully observing the situation on both sides of the road, whether it was the roof or the closed windows on the second floor, every move could not escape his sharp eyes, but strangely, he did not feel the murderous aura on the road ahead.

Yang Xuangan drove the black cloud and slowly paced to the outside of the tavern, only to see the drinker inside, wearing a hat and a linen clothes, the scarf around his neck covered most of his face, and the person was in the corner of the backlight, and he couldn't see his face clearly.

In front of the mysterious drinker, a jar of Liulin wine (Xifeng wine at this time was still called this name), a plate of dried radishes and wine, just drinking alone.

Yang Xuangan was fully guarded, and his left hand had already begun to touch the Xuantie heavy sword on the side of the saddle, and suddenly the man raised his head and looked directly at Yang Xuangan.

Under the sunlight, a pair of green eyes gave people an indescribable discomfort, coupled with a rough and low roar, like a wolf-like voice, which made every inch of skin on Yang Xuangan's back have goosebumps: "Yang Xuangan, since you are here, why don't you have a drink first?" ”

Yang Xuan's heart was sinking, he didn't know why Wang Shichong appeared here and now, but he knew very well that Wang Shichong should be his biggest enemy now, the main messenger behind the Yiqiē incident. His purpose is to create chaos in the world, and then take the opportunity to stand on his own, and this. It is diametrically opposed to his current position.

Yang Xuangan glanced around vigilantly, and there was still no trace of the breath of a living person on the empty street, nor did he have any murderous aura.

Wang Shichong stared at Yang Xuangan coldly, took off the masked cloth on his face, and suddenly laughed: "Yang Xuangan, are you scared?" This is not at all like the prince of Yue Guo who I know who is not afraid of heaven and earth! ”

Yang Xuangan didn't take his agitation, but he knew very well that he would not have a showdown with this person. Even if you go to Yuwen Mansion, you will still have to face this person sooner or later, and you will meet with the sword soldiers when the time comes. Why don't you sit down and make it clear.

Yang Xuangan also has full confidence in his own ability, even on this street, in the face of hundreds of people, he is confident to fight his way. Besides. It's really not good, you can still catch Wang Shi as a hostage.

Yang Xuangan thought of this, the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile, he got off the horse, did not tie the black cloud to the horse stake, and was already ready to get on the horse and escape directly once something happened.

Yang Xuangan inserted the long lance outside the door of the store, held the Xuantie heavy sword in his hand, and walked into the store hall with a loud roar. sat opposite Wang Shichong.

Wang Shichong pointed to another bowl on the table, only to see that it was already full of a bowl of wine. He smiled at Yang Xuangan: "It seems that since the two of us have met, except for the desert time, we have never sat down to drink together, although every time we get along and talk, there are either people who drink or wine jars around us, Yang Xuangan, don't you think this is ridiculous?" ”

Yang Xuangan didn't say a word, raised the wine bowl and drank it all, wiped his mouth, and said coldly: "So can I count Yang Xuangan and you Wang Shichong have drunk wine together?" ”

Wang Shichong's face changed slightly: "You're not afraid of poison in wine?" ”

Yang Xuangan laughed: "If you want to poison me, why do you want to drink here alone with me?" Wang Shichong, I have also read a lot of books in the past few years, and I have experienced a lot of things, and I will judge for myself, don't you always think that only you are a smart person, okay? ”

The green light in Wang Shichong's eyes flashed, it seemed that Yang Xuangan, who was sitting opposite him today, made him strange, he sighed, put the wine bowl in his hand on the table, and stared at Yang Xuangan with his eyes: "I don't know what you think now, why do you want to spoil my business?" ”

Yang Xuangan's expression became stern, and he said in a deep voice: "Your business? Do you finally admit that you made this qiē? From Chen Guiren to Changsun Sheng, from Yang Yong to Yang Liang, they have all become props for you to mess up the world and take the opportunity to stand on your own? ”

Wang Shichong replied calmly: "Yes, you know that I have been running around the world for this matter for many years, and now that it is about to blossom and bear fruit, why do you want to harm me again?" I always thought you were going to stand with me in this matter. In the sand tent outside Lingzhou City, is it all in vain in the wine cellar in Guzang City? ”

Yang Xuangan shook his head: "Wang Shichong, I'm afraid you haven't figured it out, I just said that if the tyrant ascends the throne and implements tyranny, causing the people of the world to be in dire straits, in this case, I will become an ally with you and start an incident together." But is this the case now? ”

The light in Wang Shichong's eyes kept flickering: "What's the difference?" No matter whether I do this or not, as long as Yang Guang ascends the throne, Yang Liang will rebel, and when the time comes, when their royal family is in civil war, do you think the people of the world will not be in dire straits? I'm just trying to push them up. ”

Yang Xuangan laughed: "Wang Shichong, you don't have to pretend to be confused, there are only two of you and me today, you don't have to hide what you do, Yang Liang raised troops, there is no name for righteousness, not many people will support him, and he is not a famous general who can sweep the world." ”

"The only Xiao Maha that Yang Liang can rely on is also old, and even if Xiao Maha was young, he was not handsome, just a brave general. Yang Liang's rebellion will not have any effect, and it will be exterminated in three months at most. ”

Wang Shichong snorted, obviously acquiescing.

Yang Xuangan continued: "I don't know where you learned about Yang Yong's secret edict, maybe it was the eldest grandson Sheng who sued you, maybe you didn't know about it at all, but just wanted to kidnap Yang Yong out and then pretend that Yang Guang rebelled, in short, as long as you bring out Yang Yong, it will be completely different from Yang Liang doing it alone." ”

"If Yang Yong runs to Yang Liang and has a secret edict in his hand, capable generals like Gao Gong and He Ruobi may go to him, plus the elite soldiers in Yang Liang's hands. Then it's a different story. ”

"If you have the ability to bring in the Turks or Goguryeo, it will form a great chaos in the world, and then Xue Ju and the Guzang Hao clan in Longxi alone will raise troops one after another. You, Wang Shichong, can just fish in troubled waters. ”

Wang Shichong laughed twice with a "hehe": "Since you know everything, why do you want to stop me?" Tell you the truth, not only me, Wang Shichong, but all the heroes from all over the world are waiting for this opportunity, and now in this Daxing City, there are no less than 20,000 swordsmen and soldiers who have been mixed in by heroes from all walks of life, and you want to defend the East Palace. Can it be kept? ”

Yang Xuangan smiled slightly: "Maybe I can't defend the East Palace, but before the East Palace is breached, I will definitely kill Yang Yong first." I won't let him fall into your hands and become a pawn! ”

Wang Shichong's face changed greatly when he heard this, he stood up suddenly, and said sharply: "Yang Xuangan, you dare!" ”

Yang Xuangan suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. The sound shook the dust on the beams of the tavern: "Yang Yong is in my hands." What am I afraid of? Killing one person can save the world, killing one person can put an end to the conspiracy of your gang of careerists, it's worth it!"

Wang Shichong sat down, took a sip of the wine in the bowl in front of him, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Hehe, Yang Xuangan, your nature is kind and weak, you won't do this." ”

"Not to mention, you won't kill Yang Yong's family ruthlessly. Especially his innocent children, who are still minors, even if it is to avoid harming your whole clan. You won't do this, the emperor hasn't ordered Yang Yong's family to be killed yet, if you dare to kill, you will be overbearing, and you will destroy the door! ”

Yang Xuangan waved his hand: "Wang Shichong, you can't scare me, I won't eat your set now, answer your second question first, if you dare to attack the East Palace, if you attack in the end, I can push Yang Yong's death on the top of the rebels who attacked the East Palace, do you think you can catch the evidence that I killed someone?" ”

Wang Shichong's face was blue and white for a while, and his cheeks were bulging and he didn't speak.

Yang Xuangan continued: "As for your first question, there is nothing to say, after experiencing so many things today, Yang Xuangan has figured out a truth: you are ruthless, I can only be more ruthless than you!" ”

"I'm not a little sheep, just like in the hall of Xue Ju in Jincheng, if I had changed before, I wouldn't have watched that orchid be killed and indifferent, but that day I just watched her drag down and beat her to death, and the second woman is the same, if you don't believe in my determination, do you want to gamble with Yang Yong's life again this time?"

Wang Shichong's face was gloomy, without saying a word, he stared at Yang Xuangan's face, as if he wanted to see from his expression whether he was lying, after a long time, he lowered his eyes, accompanied by a sigh, a bowl of wine went down his stomach, and said: "This bet, I won't fight with you." ”

Yang Xuangan's spirits perked up, he had been pretending to be fierce just now, but deep down he was playing the drums, Yang Yan's expression when he abolished Yang Yong a few years ago broke his heart, it may be okay for him to kill a Yang Yong, but if he wants to attack Yang Yong's underage sons, this is beyond his bottom line, and it is absolutely unacceptable.

It's just that in front of Wang Shichong, Yang Xuangan can only show this kind of tough posture, even if his expression is a little slower, he can let Wang Shichong see that his heart is shaken, which will cause a big deal.

But Yang Xuangan's expression did not show any change, he is now more and more like a clever actor, while hiding the excitement in his heart, he said coldly: "In this case, it is better to return to our previous agreement, and wait for Yang Guang to take the throne and then look at the situation, if he is a Ming Jun, we will be his courtiers with peace of mind, if it is a faint king, we will come according to what we said before." ”

Wang Shichong suddenly laughed, and his laughter revealed a strange and disdainful: "Mingjun? Faint? Are there any criteria? ”

Yang Xuangan was slightly stunned, he really rarely thought about this problem, and suddenly opened his mouth wide and couldn't speak. After thinking about it carefully, he said: "Like the current emperor, it is naturally Mingjun. ”

Wang Shichong then asked, "What is that faint monarch?" Chen Shubao is it? ”

Yang Xuangan nodded: "He is not a faint monarch, who else is a faint monarch?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled: "Is Emperor Wu of Han considered a faint monarch?" ”

Yang Xuangan has always admired Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and after hearing this, he said unhappily: "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is eloquent and strategic, the south is a hundred Yue, the north is chasing the Xiongnu, and the strong feudal domain is cut down internally, how can it be said that it is a faint king?" ”

Wang Shichong's expression became stern: "Chen Shubao himself eats and waits for death, but he didn't build a lot of construction in his Chen Kingdom, nor did he conquer Ding Zhuang of the Southern Dynasty to think about a decisive battle with the Great Sui, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty are two extremes, so you think that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is the Ming Jun and Chen Shubao is the faint monarch, right?" ”

Yang Xuangan nodded: "As an emperor, he only cares about his own pleasure and ignores the government, isn't he a faint king?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "But if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty does that, the domestic public resentment is boiling, the population of the country is plummeting, the people dare not speak out in front of the severe punishment, and those who commit misdemeanors will be requisitioned to the newly opened up desolate and dangerous Xiongnu hometown in the north to go to the border, if you were born in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, will you think that he is a Ming Jun?" ”

The corners of Yang Xuangan's mouth twitched twice, and he didn't speak, he also thought about this question when he read the history books, Emperor Qin and Han Wu were undoubtedly one of the most outstanding emperors in history, but if he really wanted to live in that era, he might not necessarily be happy.

Wang Shichong smiled: "The rule of Wenjing in the Han Dynasty is also as enterprising as you said, relying on sending women to make peace with the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu also needed to recuperate after expanding to a certain extent in those years, so they stopped the large-scale war against the Han Dynasty, in your opinion, what is the big difference between these and Chen Shubao?"
