Chapter 589

"Because only in this way could Li Jiancheng sleep soundly!"

"But standing from Li Shimin's perspective, why shouldn't he rebel?"

"I have risked my life for Great Tang and made great contributions. Not having a share of the throne is one thing, but you also want my life—why?"

"What's ridiculous is these scholars of the world, standing on the moral high ground, frantically criticizing Li Shimin for killing his brother and forcing his father, even wishing Li Shimin would draw his sword and commit suicide—only then would it be considered loyalty and filial piety!"

"But if they were to swap places with Li Shimin, the Crown Prince's mansion would have been wiped out long ago, and the egg yolks would have been shaken apart!"

"Prince of Yan, what do you think of these words of this official?"

Boom!

Gao Yang's words were like thunder from the nine heavens, suddenly striking Yan Wushuang's mind, making his brain buzz, and endless stormy waves tightly surrounded him!

He stood up straight suddenly, pointing in the direction of Gao Yang.

At this moment, he was both shocked and angry!

"Bold Gao Yang!"

"You dare to sow discord between this Prince and the Crown Prince, you deserve to die for your crimes!"

"Do you believe this Prince will cut you down with one sword?"

Yan Wushuang drew the sword at his side, pointing it suddenly at Gao Yang, the blade flashing with endless cold light.

He stared at Gao Yang with his tiger eyes, as if in disbelief, and his body was filled with violent murderous intent—the murderous intent cultivated from years of fighting on the battlefield, all erupted at this moment without reservation!

If this were an ordinary person, their legs would have gone soft.

But Gao Yang was calm, pressing his hand towards Yan Wushuang, "Prince of Yan, don't be so violent when encountering things, be calm."

"Besides, you are an imperial prince of Yan Kingdom, and this sword is also a sword of Yan Kingdom. It cannot cut me, an official of Da Qian."

"It would be better to continue sitting and drinking, why be so irritable?"

Gao Yang was full of composure, and he even reached out with his chopsticks to pick up a piece of crystal-clear venison, put it in his mouth, and while chewing, said indifferently to Yan Wushuang.

Yan Wushuang snorted coldly, "Gao Yang, don't think this Prince is a fool who can be easily fooled by you. This low-level discord-sowing scheme, do you think this Prince will fall for it?"

"To tell you the truth, after listening to this Li Shimin story, I guessed that this story must have come from your hand, intending to bewitch this Prince. In front of this Prince, it's useless for you to deny it, because this Prince has always believed in his own judgment!"

Gao Yang looked surprised, and he reached out to flick the tip of Yan Wushuang's sword, making a crisp 'ding' sound.

"What the Prince of Yan is saying, is it a misunderstanding? This official has always acted uprightly, and I never hide my poisonous schemes. This Li Shimin story is indeed from this official's hand, what is there to deny?"

Once these words were out, Yan Wushuang's anger subsided slightly.

On the contrary, he was confused by Gao Yang's reaction.

Shouldn't Gao Yang try his best to deny it?

How did he just admit it directly?

This is not right!

Yan Wushuang put away his sword first and sat back down.

It wasn't that he didn't want to kill Gao Yang, but Gao Yang's words made a lot of sense.

He was an imperial prince of Great Yan, and he couldn't kill an official of Da Qian. Even if he really killed Gao Yang, he would definitely die under the anger of the Empress of Da Qian!

He narrowed his eyes and said: "Minister Gao, what do you mean by this?"

Gao Yang put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the handkerchief handed over by Green Radish, wiped his mouth, and turned to Yan Wushuang.

"The Li Shimin story came from this official's hand, and this official will just say it straight: this story was adapted based on the Prince of Yan, specially written for the purpose of making Yan Kingdom fall into internal chaos, so it would be unable to pose a threat to our Da Qian!"

"Is this direct enough for this official to say?"

Once these words were out, it was like a storm sweeping through!

Yan Wushuang was stunned.

He didn't expect Gao Yang to admit it directly, and even tell him the real purpose of Da Qian!

This frankness even made Yan Wushuang feel for a moment that Gao Yang was saying something good for him, which was why he was so frank and had such a clear conscience!

Yuan Xuanlin was also full of confusion.

From the moment Gao Yang stepped into the room, he had been observing Gao Yang in secret. Gao Yang gave him the feeling of a vast ocean; he couldn't see anything at all, couldn't see through him at all!

"You just admitted it like that?"

Yan Wushuang was somewhat shocked, somewhat disbelieving.

Gao Yang nodded, very frankly, "What is there to hide? But the Prince of Yan should also understand. This official is now in a high position with great power, relying entirely on the Empress's trust. These poisonous schemes have to come out from time to time."

"Otherwise, once I lose the Empress's trust, given this official's reputation, I'm afraid I would die very miserably."

Yan Wushuang narrowed his eyes, staring at the frank Gao Yang.

He considered himself to have met countless people in his life, but he had never seen anyone like Gao Yang!

"Minister Gao, what exactly do you want to do?"

"What do you mean by telling this Prince so directly?"

Yan Wushuang said in a deep voice.

Gao Yang's frankness made him feel like he had punched cotton, giving rise to a sense of powerlessness!

This feeling made him very unhappy.

"Prince of Yan, this official will say it straight: this official wants to provide a certain amount of support to the Prince of Yan, to help the Prince of Yan sit on the supreme throne. Of course, I will also collect a little benefit from it."

"I don't know what the Prince of Yan thinks?"

Gao Yang said with a smile.

Hearing this, Yan Wushuang revealed an 'as expected' expression.

From the beginning when Gao Changwen spoke, to everything that followed, it was likely all for this purpose!

Although his heart was moved, Yan Wushuang was very unhappy about being led by the nose by Gao Yang.

Yan Wushuang's expression was indifferent, leaning back in his chair, his hands placed on his abdomen, looking down with disdain, "This Prince is an imperial prince of Great Yan, I cannot do such a backstabbing thing!"

"This official feels that the Prince of Yan should listen to advice." Gao Yang said with a smile.

"Hmph!"

"What a coincidence, this Prince is good at everything, but I just don't listen to advice. Minister Gao, what can you do?"

Gao Yang imitated Yan Wushuang's posture, leaning back in his chair, his hands crossed in front of his abdomen, a kind smile on his face.

"It's nothing, it's just that before long, the Li Shimin story will spread throughout the entire Great Yan Imperial City. Even if the Crown Prince doesn't like listening to stories, it's inevitable that the officials under the Crown Prince will have some who like to curry favor."

"So this official feels that the Prince of Yan should listen to advice!"

"No other reason, just to live longer!" ===== CHAPTER 591 =====
