Approaching the departure journey, Gaojiazhuang became more and more noisy, as if it was a big bazaar.

The front hall of Gaojiazhuang is steaming, filled with the aroma of fine wine and barbecue. The walls of the hall are decorated with brocade and red lanterns are hung. According to the highest etiquette standards, rows of small tables are arranged, and the guests are seated separately. A few royal kabuki who had just arrived from Yangzhou with Concubine Xiao were playing the pipa, and a group of young and beautiful blonde and blue-eyed bearded dancers were dancing. There are large braziers in the four corners of the hall, burning silver charcoals, and the guests at the table are staggered, drunk and talking, and noisy. Ling Yun, the male owner of Gaojiazhuang, could only accompany the last seat at this time.

At this time, he definitely felt that the status of an illegitimate child was not much better than that of a son-in-law.

At this time, he sat in front of the small table at the end, picked up the flask and poured wine for his own dry cup, and fully felt this feeling.

He didn't quite understand why Yang Guang brought Concubine Xiao over, and it was Yang Guang's second son, Yuzhang Wang Yang Xuan, who came with Concubine Xiao, as well as many staff members in the Jin Palace. At this banquet, he couldn't figure out whether it was for the send-off wine for his departure tomorrow or the welcome dinner for Concubine Xiao. Anyway, it looks like Yang Guang is more like Yang Guang is taking the lead, Yang Guang and Concubine Xiao are sitting at the top, Ling Yun's two wives Qianxue and Rose are sitting in front of him, and Prince Yang Yun is sitting opposite.

Ling Yun's side was surrounded by low-level officers from the Jin Palace's pro-army, most of whom held the title of Governor or Metropolitan Governor, and this group of young military attaches rarely participated in the banquet with the King of Jin, even if they were far away, they were also elated and drank heroically. He was quite interested in them, and perhaps they were among those who would go north with him tomorrow, and he would listen carefully to their stories of war, hunting, or women.

Princess Xiao of Jin is as beautiful as rumored, she is a few years older than Yang Guang, and her second son Yang Yun is already fourteen years old, growing into a tall and handsome prince, but she is still as young and beautiful as a young woman. The high upturned bun is inserted with the golden step of a hundred birds and a phoenix, and the hairpin inlaid with pearls is perfectly matched. When she came in, Yang Guang helped her to the top with one hand and led her to the seat to sit down, but she never looked at him from beginning to end. Ling Yun could feel that the princess's smile contained indifference, and that smile was out of superficial efforts to the guests in the hall, and indifference was really to his illegitimate son.

It is Yang Guang, who is in the golden stage, a strong hero and elegant, full of the temperament of a king. In this full hall, he is truly outstanding. Between talking and laughing, it always makes people feel cordial, and even gives birth to the feeling of working for him.

Below the couple is Yang Jun, who was named the king of Yuzhang at the age of nine, although he has been the king of the county for five years, he is only fourteen years old at this time. He is also the only son who follows Yang Guang and his wife, the eldest son Yang Zhao, the king of Henan, has been raised in the palace since he was a child, and officially married the daughter of Cui Hongsheng, the head of the march, Cui is a big family, Cui Hongsheng's brother Cui Hongdu is also the head of the march, and his sister is the concubine of Yang Jun, the king of Qin. Yang Guang asked his eldest son to marry Concubine Qin's niece, and he also had the idea of strengthening his relationship with King Qin. The Cui family has one family, two pillars, two national and two princesses, and it is very important for Yang Guang to be able to help. In particular, Yang Jun, the king of Qin, was dismissed from office last year, which is not a bad thing for Yang Guang, but a good thing. Yang Jun was dismissed, and it was impossible to compete with him for the reserve position after falling out of favor, so the power on Yang Jun's side was just at his disposal, and the brothers joined forces against several other brothers.

Yang Zhao is now staying in Beijing after marriage and officially serving as the chief official of one of the three provinces.

Ling Yun secretly looked at Yang Yun, Yang Yun in history was an arrogant, close to the villain, and a prince who did not comply with the law, the original prince Yang Zhao died early, as Yang Guang's only concubine, he had a good chance to succeed to the throne of the prince, but unfortunately he did something wrong, and was finally abandoned by Yang Guang, and even when the Jiangdu Rebellion, Yang Guang's first reaction was that Yang Yun rebelled and made trouble. And when the rebels broke into Yang Xuan's house, he also thought that Yang Guang had sent someone to kill him. However, at this time, Yang Jian was still very immature, he had been by Yang Guang's side, and he was restrained, at this time he had a good reputation, handsome appearance, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his eldest brother Yang Zhao was very much loved by Yang Jian and his wife. Speaking of which, the crown prince Yang Yong gave birth to ten sons, but all of them were concubines, and Yang Guang's two sons-in-law were actually the eldest grandson and second grandson of Yang Jian and his wife. Yang Yun followed Yang Guang's side, read a lot of books with the bachelor of the palace, wrote and wrote with a few copies of Yang Guang's style, and was strong and healthy, especially good at arching and riding horses, and was more brave than his eldest son Yang Zhaolai.

In Ling Yun's opinion, the current Yang Yun has not had a chance to be taken seriously by the traitorous villain, he behaves cautiously, and he works hard to learn from his father Yang Guang's kingly posture at the banquet. Next to him, there were a few women, but they were a few little girls with pink makeup, this was Yang Guang's daughter. The military attache next to him introduced him, and the tallest one was the eldest daughter of King Jin, Princess Nanyang. Yang Guang is a prince, but his daughter is a princess, which looks a little strange. However, it was normal at this time, in the Sui Dynasty, the emperor's daughter was generally crowned as a county princess, and the prince's daughter was crowned as a county, or a feudal yi, also known as a county princess or a princess of Yi, but usually directly called a princess. Yang Guang's sister Yang Awang is the princess of Lanling County, and Yang Guang's daughter is the princess of Nanyang County. Only after the Tang Dynasty will the title of the princess become the exclusive title of the emperor's daughter, and the prince's daughter will be renamed the county lord.

Princess Nanyang is the eldest daughter of Yang Guang and Concubine Xiao, she is only twelve years old this year, but she is already tall and beautiful, and she is somewhat similar to Concubine Xiao. She has a bit of the momentum of a princess, and she strives to show the nobility and solemnity of the royal princess, holding a little girl in her hand, but she is only a few years old, followed by two slightly older girls, these three little girls are also Yang Guang's daughters, the one held by Princess Nanyang is born to Concubine Xiao, the sister of Nanyang's mother, and the other two are from other Jin concubines. Now, there is no princess title.

On an occasion like today, Yang Guang's concubines did not appear, but it was still like a family banquet for Yang Guang, with a couple and several children, lively and lively.

Grey Wind snuck in at some point, running to his feet and rubbing his legs. Ling Yun smiled, it seemed that this little thing was not small, and he could actually sneak in from under the eyelids of the guards outside, he secretly smiled and threw a large piece of mutton a few times while people were not paying attention. So Gray Wind licked Ling Yun gratefully a few times, and hurriedly lowered his head to eat.

"You're the bastard?" An unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

Ling Yun looked up, Yang Yun didn't know when he actually slipped to the last seat in front of the hall door, his eyes were staring at the gray wind under the table, and he asked casually.

"Yes," Ling Yun replied, "I'm the bastard. The answer was crisp, without dragging the mud and water.

A governor who was laughing and bragging with his companion next to him hurriedly stopped and gave up his place to the young Yuzhang County King. Yang Jian sat down unceremoniously, picked up a knife and cut off a piece of mutton and threw it to Gray Feng, "This is a wolf, you raised it?" ”

Ling Yun smiled but did not answer.

Gray Wind turned a blind eye to the meat that Yang Yun threw over, he only ate the food that Ling Yun fed, even if others threw meat to him, he would not eat it indiscriminately.

Yang Jian frowned a little dissatisfied: "Forget this beast." Your name is Yi Feng, right? Yang Jian aggravated the word Yi Feng, as if to remind him that he was just an illegitimate child and did not even deserve the surname Yang. As he spoke, he took the knife and cut off another piece of meat, but this time he slipped some sauce and stuffed it into his mouth.

"You can also call me Lingyun." Ling Yun smiled, he didn't take the child's provocation to heart, and he wouldn't let the child call him big brother, that was inappropriate, and Yang Guang would definitely not allow it. Yang Guang is not Yang Yong, he will not bring his illegitimate son back to the palace, and Yang Yong does have to pay a great price for his hasty decision, the current fall from grace, and even the loss of the prince in the future, and even the loss of his life, even the illegitimate son and other concubines have not survived, and it is very important that it comes from his hasty decision. And Yang Guang is not Yang Yong.

"This wolf is good!"

"It's not an ordinary wolf," Ling Yun said, "it's been raised since childhood, and it's very human." ”

"The palace also has hunting dogs, which are more fierce than wolves, and when hunting, they can surround and kill tigers and leopards. But the most powerful hunting dog has to listen to its master. Yang Yun said meaningfully, trying his best to pretend to be a sense of profundity.

Ling Yun smiled and said nothing.

"My mother has been in a bad mood lately." Yang Jun stared at Ling Yun Dao.

"Then you should persuade the princess to want to open up, in fact, the princess's life doesn't know how many people envy her, so why bother yourself."

Ling Yun had also noticed that Xiao didn't like him as an illegitimate child. At the banquet all night, Xiao Shi didn't look at him, this kind of deliberateness reflected her inner attitude and mood towards him. She sat there like a cold statue. Concubine Xiao was really angry, angry that Yang Guang suddenly told him that he had an illegitimate child, and this illegitimate child was eighteen years old, and asked her to come to Gaojiazhuang to see this illegitimate child. She definitely didn't want to see Ling Yun, even if she wanted to, she didn't want to see her in person.

"King Jun, I'm going to leave for the north tomorrow, and help me tell the princess, my name is Yi Feng, I am called Yi Feng now, and I will be called Yi Feng in the future."

Yang Jun seemed to be very satisfied with this answer, and said with a smile: "Well, you are very smart. I hope you will always remember what you said today, and that will not hurt you. After a pause, he said: "Actually, it's not bad to go to the north, if you go to Guanwai, you can go to Yingzhou to meet the governor of Yingzhou, my father has already set the second daughter of the governor of Wei as the little princess for me." When he said this, Yang Jun was a little proud. Wei Chong is a member of the Jingzhao Wei family, the Wei family is the Guanlong family, the Wei family is all over the court, there are both civil and military, Wei Chong, Wei Shou, Wei Wei, Wei Shi, Wei Yi, Wei Shikang and so on. Yang Guang chose his daughter-in-law, not only to have a good daughter-in-law, but more importantly, to have a strong family power, he chose the daughter of the Cui family for the eldest son, and the daughter of the Wei family for the second son.

In the Sui Dynasty, the Wei family was very prosperous, and held many military positions, commanding troops and leading generals, and guarding one side. Wei Chong had both civil and military skills, fought in the south and in the north, resisted the Turks, leveled the southern barbarians, and suppressed Liaoxi, and later returned to the dynasty to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. At this time, Yingzhou in western Liaoning, Turkic in the west, and Goryeo in the east, was the top priority in the entire frontier situation.

And Yang Guang's marriage with Wei Chong at this time is also a little subtle. Yingzhou is located in the rear of Yang Liang, Yang Guang and Wei Chong are married, Wei Chong is naturally on Yang Guang's side, which is much more powerful than the nail of Ling Yun. Ling Yun is now going to Northern Xinjiang, even if he is a qiēshun lì, he will only collect a miscellaneous card, but Wei Chong is really guarding the Yingzhou in the rear of Yang Liangda, with heavy troops.

Ling Yun thought about Yang Guang's layout, and was silent for a while, Yang Yun thought that he was secretly threatened by himself, and said proudly: "You don't have to worry, you will report the name of my father Wang He at that time, and Manager Wei will definitely take good care of you." In any case, you are also doing things for my father. ”

"That's the same, thank you for your help." The corners of Ling Yun's mouth turned down slightly, he picked up the wine glass from the table, poured it full, and toasted Yang Yun. Wei Chong, the governor of Yingzhou, is Yang Guang's person, and although this is a threat to Ling Yun, it is even more helpful. Anyway, with Qianxue and Rose in Yang Guang's hands, he didn't plan to have more ideas. He was also worried that he would be able to gain a foothold between several major forces at that time, but since Yang Guang's father-in-law was here, he would have to help himself then.

Yang Guang sat on the seat and talked to Concubine Xiao, but his eyes had been secretly observing Ling Yun all night. Seeing that Ling Yun was deliberately snubbed and even embarrassed by him, but he treated it indifferently, he was slightly surprised in his heart, but he became more and more satisfied with him. After seeing the second son Yang Yun quietly sneaking away to talk to him, he was still a little worried, and turned his eyes to look at his wife Xiao Meiniang, but when he saw Concubine Xiao turn to the side, he knew that the kid must have been instructed by her mother to embarrass the illegitimate child. But unexpectedly, nothing seemed to happen between the two, just talking, and then even drinking together.

This kid is very deep.

Xiao Meiniang also obviously saw Yang Yun and Ling Yun drinking together, and her eyes were a little puzzled. She originally hinted that Yang Jian would warn the illegitimate child and ask him not to think too much. This is not all because of her jealousy, she admits that she is a little jealous, but more concerned about her husband's career. She didn't want her husband to mess up because of an illegitimate child, the danger of this illegitimate child was too great, and if the second saint knew about it, her husband's future would be ruined. Look at the prince, isn't it a big reason that he has not dealt with the matter of illegitimate children to this point? She asked her son to warn her illegitimate child, and also to let him know more about current affairs. Unexpectedly, Yang Jun, the child, actually talked and laughed with his illegitimate son, and even drank wine. Does this kid really regard his illegitimate child as a big brother?

Xiao Meiniang secretly glanced at Ling Yun's gaze, a little more vigilant!
