Chapter 1174
The sudden voice interrupted the group's conversation.
Gao Yang looked sideways and saw that the young man was tall, wearing a suit of armor, with a firm face, broad and thick shoulders; just by standing there, his whole body exuded a powerful aura.
Zhao Ritian whispered, "Wang Xiao, son of the General who Defeats the Barbarians, Wang Zhong. He has some strength, just a little bit worse than me."
Gao Yang raised an eyebrow, not expecting this guy to be Wang Zhong's son!
Wang Xiao's face turned black, and he said to Zhao Ritian, "This Captain is weaker than you? Zhao Ritian, do you dare to fight me?"
Zhao Ritian stiffened his neck, "Fight then! Just one punch, and you'll have to kneel and beg me not to die. If you have the guts, come and fight!"
Gao Yang: "..."
Wang Xiao's mouth twitched, too lazy to pay attention to Zhao Ritian's clamoring.
Instead, he looked at Gao Yang in shock and said, "Lord Gao, don't you remember me?"
Gao Yang stared at Wang Xiao and nodded very honestly, "I really don't remember."
Wang Xiao's molars ached; he regarded Gao Yang as his lifelong enemy and dreamed of washing away the humiliation of his father Wang Zhong being called the "Chicken-Mounting General," yet Gao Yang didn't even remember him.
Insult!
It was simply too insulting!
A flash of annoyance flickered in the depths of his eyes as he stared at Gao Yang.
"Lord Gao has a noble status, it doesn't matter if you don't remember this subordinate, but this subordinate must remind Lord Gao that the Duke is old, and an expedition against the Xiongnu is no small matter. For both public and private reasons, the Duke should enjoy his retirement."
"Now the whole of Changancheng knows that the Duke is going to draw a two-stone bow and pierce a willow leaf at eighty paces. Lord Gao should persuade the old Duke to avoid losing his clean reputation."
After Wang Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and strode away, wanting to leave.
Gao Yang, however, said, "I will keep Captain Wang's words in mind. It just so happens that I also have a word, and I hope Captain Wang will convey it on my behalf!"
Wang Xiao paused and looked at Gao Yang in confusion.
Gao Yang said directly, "How many meals of dung does Old General Wang owe? Why hasn't he eaten them yet?"
Zhao Ritian and Qin Chumo laughed loudly upon hearing this.
The words fell.
Wang Xiao's face turned green.
He clenched his iron fists, especially feeling the faint mocking gazes around him, and the anger in his heart rose up.
He really didn't know how to answer this; saying he ate it would be wrong, and saying he didn't would be even more wrong.
"Lord Gao, you are ruthless!"
"But I hope that in a moment, you can still laugh!"
Wang Xiao gritted his teeth, made a harsh threat, and then slunk away, staying far away from Gao Yang.
This guy's mouth was too poisonous!
Gao Yang raised an eyebrow; he sensed something different from Wang Xiao's words.
It was also at this time.
A sharp voice rang out.
"The Emperor is arriving outside the camp gate, will all generals please hurry to welcome him!"
Following the eunuch's sharp voice, all the generals looked solemn and went to welcome him.
Outside the camp gate, an extremely luxurious dragon carriage drove slowly; on that huge dragon carriage, golden dragons coiled and colorful phoenixes danced, every carving was exquisite, sparkling with brilliant light under the golden sunlight, showing supreme nobility.
Wu Zhao sat upright on the dragon carriage, wearing a bright yellow brocade robe, which made her temperament even more elegant and refined; her noble and beautiful face was like a god descending to the mortal world, making people afraid to look directly at her.
Behind her, the hundred officials wore court robes, in neat rows, their wide sleeves fluttering gently in the wind, following closely.
Gao Tianlong led a group of military generals, strode forward, and bowed to Wu Zhao.
"We pay respects to the Emperor!"
"We pay respects to the Emperor!"
Wu Zhao got off the dragon carriage, waved the wide sleeves of her dragon robe, and her noble voice followed.
