Chapter 1318: Small Conflict

~15 min read 2,918 words

In the side hall of the Chen State Palace, the maids were dismissed, and the fragrant Xiao Mei stuck to Wang Yan.

"What did Yang Guang look for the husband?"

"Why are you calling me husband?"

"I will be your person in the future, and your ghost when I die."

"Then haven't you heard that husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly separately?"

"The husband is a hero, and he will definitely not do such things."

Wang Yan laughed, hugged Xiao Mei and said: "Let me wrestle with the meritorious generals to entertain the public to help the wine."

"But did you win?" Although she had already thought of the result, Xiao Mei still asked a silly question.

"Not only won, but also won by crushing, otherwise my Concubine Xiao could be called by Yang Guang to favor on the bed at this time."

"Hate, the husband is used to saying strange things to belittle people."

As if dissatisfied, the small fist hammered, Xiao Mei's face stuck to Wang Yan's face, her red lips opened slightly, and her mouth spit out orchid fragrance, "Please pity me, Your Majesty~"

Xiao Mei understands interest, Wang Yan expressed affirmation, and rewarded Xiao Mei...

Early the next morning, a waiter sent exquisite and rich breakfast. They were all cooks from the Chen State Palace, made under the staring supervision of Sui Dynasty soldiers.

Wang Yan knew it because he wanted to go there to steal some exquisite food before, but the soldiers on duty were there with their waists on their knives, their eyes were wider than the other, monitoring without dead ends, just afraid that these people would have bad intentions, poison the food, and come directly to a beheading operation.

Of course, on the other hand, this kind of thing Wang Yan himself is very familiar with. War, the simplest is to fight, the most difficult is before fighting and after fighting, there are too many messy things.

Any person who leads troops to fight, even if it is just a small general who leads a thousand soldiers, is absolutely not a waste. It's just that others are stronger, not that he is weaker.

Watching Wang Yan eat and drink sweetly, Xiao Mei didn't have much surprise. After all, the two had lived together for several days. She knew how much Wang Yan could eat, and even she had a good appetite, and couldn't help eating more.

In fact, she still couldn't eat for these few days. Although she was safe now, no matter what, such a big change was still pressing in her heart. The things in these few days changed too fast.

From the emperor's concubine, to being betrayed by everyone, hiding alone in the dark room, and then preparing psychologically to seduce Yang Guang, but a small soldier killed him, and occupied her without refusal, and then defected to Yang Guang, such ups and downs, she always needs some time to adapt.

There were people serving around, so the two didn't say anything while eating, keeping 'don't talk while eating'.

After eating like this, after a little rest, Wang Yan said: "Let's go out for a walk. I am a small soldier, and I haven't seen what the palace looks like. Now that I have a chance, and there is nothing to do, I should look more."

"I also want to see it. In the future, I won't be able to see it." Xiao Mei followed the trend, and with Wang Yan, followed by maids, as well as the guards sent by Yang Guang to follow, strolled around the palace, appreciating the architectural scenery in the palace.

The architectural form is the palace architectural complex inherited from the Wei and Jin Dynasties of the Three Kingdoms, pavilions, towers, pavilions, rockeries, and water pavilions, plus the fine rain falling recently, it also has a bit of misty smoke and rain, and the feeling is still quite good.

But no matter how good the feeling is, it is matched by a group of soldiers shouting and laughing, moving things, and it immediately dropped a few grades, and the feeling is not so good.

After fighting a big victory to destroy the country, the soldiers were really happy. In addition to some private spoils, there were rewards for merits later. After returning, they could all buy land, build houses, and marry wives.

Although many fellow soldiers died, there is no war without death.

Everyone doesn't take life and death very seriously. After all, in daily production and life, death is accompanied everywhere. If you are not careful, you will have a mouth, a high fever, and people will be gone. This is a common thing.

Xiao Mei is of course familiar with the situation in the palace. She served as a tour guide for Wang Yan, introducing various buildings as if she were counting family treasures, showing the quality that Concubine Xiao should have, and having good accumulation. Understand architecture, understand history, and are quite familiar with some figures in Southern Chen.

It can be seen that Xiao Mei does not just please people with color on weekdays. She also pays attention to the improvement of personal comprehensive quality.

Xiao Mei can also dance. She danced several segments for Wang Yan in the dark room, charming and enchanting. She also understands the materials and craftsmanship of various jewelry and clothing, and has high aesthetics...

In short, Xiao Mei's quality is indeed not bad. Some she learned actively, some she absorbed passively, all kinds of things, created her.

Just when the two were wandering around, they saw a team of people walking not far ahead.

"What a good interest, boy, haven't you seen the palace? You are really lucky to have been valued by His Highness Jin Wang. Learn more rules in the future and do things well."

Yuwen Huaji squinted at Wang Yan, his eyes focused on Xiao Mei, sighing that Wang Yan was really lucky to have arched such a beauty.

Only hearing two 'pa pa' sounds, Yuwen Huaji didn't think much, he was slapped away, two slaps, making him dizzy.

When Yuwen Huaji was still confused, the soldiers beside him began to draw their knives.

These people are all family generals. The Yuwen family is also a big clan, and the loyalty of the family generals is very high. Of course, it won't work if it's not high. The whole family of the family generals eats the master's food, and they are full, which is the loyalty raised by high treatment. Let them die, they will die.

Wang Yan greeted them without hesitation.

But in a moment, more than ten family generals were lying on the ground rolling and crying in pain.

Yuwen Huaji's brain was also clear at this time, staring at Wang Yan with hatred, wanting to stand up.

"Direct mother thief, still dare to stare at your father?"

Wang Yan kicked him in the chest, "Your father heard yesterday, my son is called Yuwen Huaji, right? Your father is defecting to His Highness Jin Wang, not defecting to your Yuwen family. Pointing fingers at your father, what are you?"

"Wang Yan!"

"Is this how you are a son? Not respecting the elderly at all?"

Wang Yan walked over, plucked his hair, and slapped him left and right, and didn't let go of him, turned to Xiao Mei and said, "You go back first, I will take him to His Highness Jin Wang to explain."

Then he dragged Yuwen Huaji on the ground like this, swaggering to find Yang Guang.

Yuwen Huaji is a person who is arrogant, careful, and dirty. Wang Yan's background is of course not seen at this time. The Yuwen family is a proper gatekeeper. Yuwen Huaji looks down on Wang Yan from the bottom of his heart, and it is annoying to look at Wang Yan.

But he was appreciated by Yang Guang, and everyone might work together in the future. He was unhappy, and there was no need to get used to Wang Yan. It's not a problem to ridicule Wang Yan twice.

After all, it's just a small soldier. He can't even kowtow to the door of the Yuwen family. He said two words and he's not happy?

Of course, this is from Yuwen Huaji's perspective, but the development of the facts did not follow his wishes. Wang Yan not only dared to scold him, but also dared to do it. He covered his face with his hands, not letting others see his embarrassed appearance.

Yang Guang was fishing in the garden. Hearing the movement in the distance, watching Wang Yan dragging people towards this side with dragon steps, he ran a few steps to meet him.

"Why is this? Why is this?"

Wang Yan walked two more steps, threw Yuwen Huaji into the pond, and then arched his hands to Yang Guang: "Your Highness, this dog thief told me to learn more rules in the future and do things well. I have no grievances with him, and I don't know each other. I rely on Your Highness, not his Yuwen family. Pointing fingers at me, what is he? If he didn't also work for Your Highness, I would have cut off his dog head.

Self-reliant on the door, looking down on me, dare to bully my sword? I don't believe that a sword can't stab his Yuwen family to death? If one sword doesn't work, then two swords!"

Yang Guang looked at the angry Wang Yan, and then looked at Yuwen Huaji who was struggling to swim to the shore in the water, shaking his head and sighing helplessly.

"Both are my confidants. Today's matter is like brothers fighting in the wall, which is really not right. What are you still doing? Why don't you pull Huaji up?"

A little later, Yuwen Huaji climbed to the shore wet, gritted his teeth and stood on the side, staring at Wang Yan with eyes splitting.

He said, "Your Highness, this wretch has no regard for rules and is beyond education. He dares to sow discord and spout wild talk in front of Your Highness. Your subject requests to execute this wretch."

"Direct mother thief, your father should have shot you on the wall back then. With this conduct, you dare to rely on the door and boast about your ancestors? The Yuwen family really has good family education, really a good big clan."

"You..."

"Okay!"

Yang Guang shouted angrily, interrupting Yuwen Huaji's words, and the latter let out a long breath and closed his mouth.

"Yuwen Huaji talks too much, Wang Yan does it, you both have mistakes. However, Wang Yan's hand is too heavy. Look, in such a while, Huaji's face is swollen, it's too unreasonable! I originally wanted to ask for an official position for you after returning to Daxing. Now that such a thing has happened, I always have to give Huaji an explanation. Since this is the case, be a consultant and military advisor in the Prince's Mansion."

"Consultant? Your Highness, he can know a few words is already..."

Yang Guang waved his hand: "Otherwise, I intend to send him to the army as a school lieutenant. Huaji, it is considered an explanation for you. Wang Yan?"

"Everything is up to Your Highness." Wang Yan arched his hands.

He is taking advantage, and Yang Guang is also towards him. This point can be seen from the fact that after he scolded Yuwen Huaji, Yuwen Huaji wanted to scold back, and Yang Guang didn't let him speak.

As for whether he wants to arrange him to be a school lieutenant in the army, this is not important. Because he himself is just a small soldier without roots, whether it is a school lieutenant in the army or a consultant and military advisor in the Prince's Mansion, it is a promotion.

A Consultative Adjutant was generally a military advisor to a Prince's mansion, an official rank of the fifth grade. Of course, it was just a nominal title; there were plenty of adjutants and attendants in the Prince of Jin's mansion, and it was just to provide him with the corresponding status.

Yang Guang cannot let him command the Prince's Mansion guards, and he cannot let him command the palace guards after becoming emperor. Because his background is not good, he is just a small soldier, and a surrendered soldier of Chen State. This kind of accommodation must be absolute confidants.

Moreover, the use of people in the army must be the descendants of the noble family, which is called clean family background. They are the vested interests of the dynasty and are more reliable for the royal family.

However, Yang Guang still wants to use Wang Yan, and he must be reused. He will definitely continue to rise in the future. The reason is also because of Wang Mouren's small soldier background. At this time, for Yang Guang, he is a proper clean family background.

The harm of gatekeepers, whether it is Yang Jian or Yang Guang, or even the gatekeepers themselves, they all know it very well. The power of the emperor is largely manipulated by these gatekeepers.

So any emperor with a little pursuit must suppress the gatekeepers. Yang Jian is naturally the same. His old Yang family was pushed up by the gatekeepers. Although Yang Guang is eager for quick success and short-sighted, he also sees these things clearly.

There is no doubt that Yang Guang has pursuits and wants to do things, so he has such a person as Wang Yan under his command, he must use it, that is, to fight against other gatekeepers and maintain the necessary balance.

Especially Wang Yan has now directly and clearly confronted Yuwen Huaji, and what he said is also clearly against the gatekeepers. Although the words are only aimed at the Yuwen family, there is no doubt that among the gatekeepers, ten people have at least eight or nine looking down on mud legs.

Of course, for what Wang Yan said, 'I don't believe that a sword can't stab his Yuwen family to death? If one sword doesn't work, then two swords!', Yang Guang has some different opinions. After all, being able to stab the Yuwen family to death can also stab him, but he also knows that Wang Yan is talking about the Yuwen family, not him, and he also knows that Wang Yan is young and has little knowledge, so he didn't take it seriously.

Except for this point, he is completely satisfied with Wang Yan, can fight, dare to fight, and dare to speak. He doesn't know if Wang Yan is intentional, but there is no doubt that after hitting Yuwen Huaji, Wang Yan can only be a lonely minister under his command, will be completely loyal to him, and is already a person who can be trusted.

It's just that before this, Wang Yan's resume must be investigated clearly. This matter started after Wang Yan came out. A group of people asked about the situation with those surrendered soldiers below, and they had to spread to the place where Wang Yan lived to visit neighbors, etc...

Seeing Wang Yan's submissive response, Yang Guang nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, that's it, go down. By the way, you go and let the kitchen make some ginger soup, the weather is cold, go and remove the cold for Huaji, if you get sick, it won't be good."

Yang Guang ordered the waiter beside him, showing the leader's care.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Yuwen Huaji responded, then looked at Wang Yan with hatred, snorted coldly, and flicked his sleeves away.

"Your Highness, look at this dog thief, he remembers hatred, Your Highness must protect me, otherwise I am afraid I can't control beating this dog thief to death."

Wang Yan shouted loudly at Yuwen Huaji's back.

Yuwen Huaji stopped, looked back and stared at Wang Yan, and then left.

Wang Yan leaned to Yang Guang's side and continued to put eye drops on Yuwen Huaji.

"Your Highness, just now that dog thief looked back, did you see anything?"

"If you have something to say, do you still want me to guess?"

Yang Guang looked at Wang Yan amusingly, and didn't mind the breakthrough of the safe distance. He already trusted Wang Yan.

"Don't look at what people say, look at what people do."

Wang Yan said a lot of crickets, "Your Highness, think about it, is that Yuwen Huaji like this? Your Highness must be careful, this Yuwen Huaji is hiding evil intentions, maybe he will rebel at some point."

"Is it really so?"

"Your Highness, although I have short knowledge, I also know the way of knowing people."

"Oh? Then tell me."

"Don't look at what people say, look at what people do. Your Highness, this Yuwen Huaji must have done evil things under Your Highness's name, ruined Your Highness's virtuous name, and fattened the private interests of the Yuwen family."

Yang Guang smiled, as if he couldn't laugh or cry, and then waved his hand.

"Go, go, don't disturb my good interest in fishing."

"Yes."

Wang Yan arched his hands and said goodbye.

Yang Guang stood in place with his hands behind his back, looking at Wang Yan's back, smiling on the surface, but squinting his eyes.

Don't look at what people say, look at what people do.
