Chapter 593

Yan Wushuang said gloomily, "Back then, the late Emperor was not yet the ruler of Great Yan, but merely an Imperial Prince. The Emperor of Zhao Guo was also an Imperial Prince, and the two once vied for the same woman, becoming enemies because of it!"

"But in this struggle, the one who suffered the most was this Prince!"

Yan Wushuang took a deep breath, anger surging in the depths of his eyes.

"At that time, even if His Highness the Prince of Yan had been born, he wouldn't have been very old, right?"

Gao Yang was filled with curiosity.

"It was precisely because this Prince had not yet been born that this Prince suffered the most!"

"Because the late Emperor, in a fit of rage, bestowed upon me the name Yan Wushuang at my birth, and that Emperor of Zhao Guo was named Zhao Wushuang!"

"He wanted to raise that Emperor of Zhao Guo as his own son!"

Speaking of this, the corners of Yan Wushuang's mouth twisted, and he could not suppress his fury.

Gao Yang: "..."

This Emperor of Yan is truly a man of temperament!

"If this Prince lacked ability, I would never have attained my current position. Therefore, I will not imprison him, nor will I wait obediently for death. I... will personally send him on his way!"

Yan Wushuang slapped the table, his killing intent chilling.

Gao Yang immediately raised his wine cup, his face full of admiration as he said, "His Highness the Prince of Yan is far superior to that Li Shimin; this deserves a full cup!"

The corner of Yan Wushuang's mouth twitched, but he still drank it down in one gulp, letting the spicy wine churn in his stomach.

Gao Yang also hissed, sucking in air, while praising the wine.

Afterward, the two spoke a bit more, finalizing the matter.

Yan Wushuang ate a peanut, then looked at Gao Yang and asked, "Lord Gao, I am curious about one thing and would like you to clear up my confusion."

"Your Highness, speak your mind. Given the relationship between us two, the only thing missing is sharing a woman today!"

Yan Wushuang: "..."

"That is unnecessary."

Yan Wushuang expressed a stern refusal to this.

"I am just curious, how did Great Qian know about the massive invasion by Great Chu? Judging by the timing, the Changning Army of Great Qian seemed to move faster, even before the outbreak of the Battle of Changan!"

"Such a coincidence, I absolutely do not believe it was accidental!"

"All of this must also be related to you, Lord Gao, right?"

As Yan Wushuang spoke, his eyes were fixed tightly on Gao Yang.

Gao Yang was also somewhat surprised by this.

This Yan Wushuang truly possessed immense talent in the art of leading troops; from the perspective of an outsider, he had actually realized the root of the problem—the Changning Army had played a decisive role in Great Chu's crushing defeat!

However, he did not deny it, instead nodding directly: "Your Highness is correct!"

"All of this is indeed related to me, because the mobilization of the Changning Army was indeed ordered by me to be recalled to Changan by Her Majesty."

As the words fell, Yan Wushuang's expression changed abruptly.

"Lord Gao, do you possess the ability to foresee the future?"
