Chapter 166

Gao Lishi smiled indifferently and did not speak. At this time, Aning interrupted and said, "Aweng, the enemy has escaped, please sit down quickly. Is this the general of Tongguan?" As she said that, she turned her gaze to the middle-aged man who was protected by the guards.

There were eight guards in the room. In addition to the four who took action before, the other four formed a circle back to back, protecting the middle-aged man in the center.

The man was about 40 years old and had a lot of wrinkles on his eyes. But even so, he was still very handsome. His phoenix eyes and the three-inch beard under his jaw were really like a Confucian style. However, his eyebrows were slightly drooping, and a faint depressed look appeared in his eyes, as if his recent situation was very unhappy.

When 6 Yu broke into the door, he sat on the chair and didn't move. Later, Gao Lishi got up and took action, and he stood up.

Seeing Aning ask him, Gao Lishi smiled slightly: "You have to say that his official position is small. This Lord Yang Hui, Mr. Yang, is a third-rank Yinqing Guanglu doctor, is now just a temporary general of the pass." As he said that, he glanced at Yang Hui and then continued to introduce: "Mr. Yang, this is Princess Ningguo, the daughter of His Highness the Crown Prince. This is Lord Wailang 6 Yu 6, a member of the Ministry of Works, whom His Majesty had just appointed. You are all young talents, so it is better to walk more if you have the chance."

"Thank you, Aweng, for your recommendation." Yang Hui saluted Gao Lishi respectfully, then bowed to Aning and 6 Yu and said, "Secretary Yang Hui, please pay homage to Princess Ningguo, and you have met the 6 great men."

The Yinqing Guanglu doctor was from the third rank, and the Ministry of Works was from the sixth rank. Yang Hui's official position was much larger than 6 Yu, so it should be that 6 Yu Yu greeted Yang Hui. But when Yang Hui looked at the situation in front of him, he knew that 6 Yu had a different relationship with Aning, so he took the lead in celebrating the 6 Yu.

"Mr. Yang is polite. We come uninvited, please don't blame me." Aning replied politely. Yang Hui's title of third-rank official did not scare her, because she knew that Yin Qing Guanglu Duke was a civil servant, and should have done things around the emperor. A civil servant who was supposed to assist the emperor was sent to guard Tongguan, which was obviously neglected.

"Xiaguan 6 Yu, I have met Lord Yang." Liu Yu bowed to Yang Hui, and began to think in his heart: Why is Yang Hui so familiar? Where have I heard of it?

"Aweng, you haven't told me how come you are here! Why haven't you been with the emperor's grandfather in Chang'an City?" Aning asked relentlessly.

"You little girl," Gao Lishi shook his head helplessly, "This is originally a secret, but if you want to know so much, I will tell you. Your Majesty plans to change the location of this winter hunting to the Songyang Hunting Ground outside Luoyang City, so I want to rush to Luoyang for preparation. Today I happened to pass by Tongguan, and Lord Yang was unable to refuse his affection, so I stayed here for a day. Not to mention others, Your Majesty is planning to give everyone an unexpected surprise."

"So that's it," Aning nodded suddenly, and showed a solemn expression rarely, "Don't worry, I must be tight-lipped."

"Prince, 6 sir, you two are running all the way. Are you planning to rest now? Or use some snacks here?" Yang Hui said with concern as soon as Aning finished speaking.

Before the two of them could reply, Gao Lishi said, "Look at their appearance, they are almost unable to stand firmly. Why are you chatting with you here? Quickly arrange a bedroom for them and send food to the room."

"Yes, yes, Ahon is right." Yang Hui nodded repeatedly, then ordered to the guards beside him: "Hurry up and prepare the bedroom for the two distinguished guests, and then tell the people outside that they will all be separated for me! I have nothing to do, don't make a fuss."

Five feet away from the door, there were already a lot of guards. They all rushed over after they learned that someone had entered the mansion. However, Yang Hui stood there well and did not give them an order to enter the door. The guards were at a loss and could only stand there waiting for Yang Hui's orders.

As soon as Yang Hui's order came out, a black-clothed guard on his right immediately responded "Yes", then walked out of the door silently and came to the guards.

The people in the room could not hear what he said, but saw his back pausing for a moment, and the dark crowd quietly dispersed.

The guard turned around and walked back. A servant who was about thirty years old came back with him. After the servant entered the door, he saluted Yang Hui and Gao Lishi first, and then smiled at Aning and 6 Yu and said, "Princess, 6, please go to the bedroom with the villain."

The two nodded, turned around and greeted Gao Lishi and Yang Hui, and walked out with the servant. As Gao Lishi said, they were exhausted and had no strength to stay here to chat.

After the two left, Gao Lishi also tidied up his sleeves and walked out calmly: "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest now. Lord Yang should rest early, please do not catch a cold if you have nothing to do.

Seeing that Gao Lishi was about to leave, Yang Hui suddenly became anxious. He treated Gao Lishi warmly, so he naturally had something to ask for, but Gao Lishi never gave him a clear answer. How could Yang Hui be willing to let him go like this? But if he said too much, it would be annoying to Gao Lishi, wouldn't he dig his own grave?

At this moment, Yang Hui's thoughts changed many times. In the end, he made up his mind and said unwillingly to Gao Lishi's back: "Aweng, I have been talking about winter hunting to you. I wonder if you can help me?"

Gao Lishi stopped. He turned around slowly, his eyebrows slightly frowned.

"It's over!" Yang Hui said calmly in his heart, and he couldn't help but start to imagine his dark future.

But I heard Gao Lishi say, "You are a little troublesome, I will do my best."

"Thank you, Ahweng!" Yang Hui said gratefully.

"It may not be a good thing. It is an opportunity for you, and it is also an opportunity for others. Just don't regret it at that time." As he said, Gao Lishi walked out. After he finished speaking, he was already in the dark outside the door.

Yang Hui in the house frowned. He didn't understand what Gao Lishi meant. He had the opportunity to express himself in front of the emperor, and others had the opportunity. This was natural. But how could he regret it?

Thinking of this, he not only felt sad about his own experience. Back then, wasn’t he also the pride of heaven that everyone envied in Chang'an City? But who would have thought that his hot backer, Empress Hui, who was favored by the harem, suddenly passed away!

As a result, his position in front of the emperor suddenly plummeted. Although his official position was still increasing, it was getting farther and farther away from the center of power. More than half a year ago, the general of Tongguan had a vacant position. I don’t know who was from the Ministry of Personnel disliked him, so he suggested to the emperor in the memorial that he would fill the vacant position.

In this way, he, a dignified third-rank official, became a small general of Tongguan.

This time, when the winter hunting change was changed in Luoyang, he had already learned the news through his acquaintances in the palace. Seeing Gao Lishi passing by Tongguan, he hurriedly kept him and tried every means to please him. Yang Hui had only one purpose, that is, to let Gao Lishi help him get an invitation to win, so that he could have a chance to show his side in front of the emperor. He believed that with his perfect tongue, as long as he could speak to the emperor, he would be able to make him happy. Then his future would be hopeful.

After wandering around Gao Lishi for a day, Yang Hui was exhausted physically and mentally. Although he still didn't understand Gao Lishi's last words, he was unwilling to think about it anymore. So he stood up, waved at the guards around him, and walked straight to his bedroom.

On the second day, Liu Yu slept until Si Shi, and then he reluctantly got up. Aning did not go any earlier than him. When Liu Yu got up, she had not finished washing.

After each washing up, the two simply used some breakfast sent by their servants. After discussing it, they decided to return to Chang'an.

After all, most of the relationship between the two is in Chang'an, and Chang'an is the center of the empire and has personnel exchanges with all parts of the country, so if the two want to inquire about Li Bai, Chang'an is the most suitable place.

After the discussion, the two went to the main hall to say goodbye to Yang Hui. After entering the door, they saw Yang Hui sitting in the main position, with two black-clothed guards standing behind them.

Although they had seen each other once last night, Liu Yu and Aning did not recognize which of the two of the eight people last night. Because the eight of them were basically the same height and dressed exactly the same, even the wooden expression on their faces could not be carved out by the same mold, and their appearance was not very distinctive. So the two naturally couldn't tell the difference between these eight people.

In addition to Yang Hui, Gao Lishi also sat in the main hall. Behind him was a little eunuch with beautiful eyes, only eleven or eleven years old, which made Aning feel very distressed.

After entering the door, the two of them gave a greeting to Gao Lishi first, and then said goodbye to Yang Hui. Yang Hui knew that 6 Yu was eager to find Li Bai and was not good to keep him, so he had to invite the two of them to come again after they had time and said a few more polite words.

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Gao Lishi also stood up and said goodbye to Yang Hui. It turned out that Gao Lishi had gotten up early, but was entangled by Yang Hui, so he stayed until now. Now that he saw that Liu Yu and Aning were about to leave, he could no longer bear it. No matter how Yang Hui tried to keep him, he insisted on leaving.

So Yang Hui led the brigade of guards to send the four people to the city gate. He found two more fast horses for 6 Yu and Aning, and then left under the urging of Gao Lishi.

Tongguan City is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with only two city gates, east and west. Luoyang and Chang'an are in these two directions respectively. Logically, within Tongguan, 6, Li and the other two should part ways with Gao Lishi. But Aning wanted to talk to Gao Lishi for a few more words, so he pulled 6 Yu and followed Gao Lishi outside the East City Gate.

After Yang Hui left, Aning followed Gao Lishi for a while before he slowed down.

"Aweng, then I'll send you here! If I get free, I'll go to Luoyang to see you!" Aning said with a smile.

"Okay, then you go back." Gao Liss said with a smile. Then he crossed Anin and looked at the 6 birds behind her, "Little 6, let's go."

"I hope that when we meet next time, Eunuch Gao still doesn't want to kill me." Liu Yu said with a smile.

Gao Lishi shook his head: "I said I would never kill you again if I didn't kill you. To be honest, you surprised me. At your age, you can remain calm when facing enemies. Maybe the world will really be yours in the future."

After saying this, Gao Lishi waved his whip and ran towards the distance.

And 6 Yu was stunned. He was like Yang Hui last night, and he didn't understand Gao Lishi's last words. Unlike Yang Hui, 6 Yu began to think about this sentence carefully.

"When facing the enemy, who? Is he himself? Or Mo Li? Can I be considered silent? If it weren't for them, who else? Yang Hui? Yang..."

In an instant, a thunder sounded in Liu Yu's mind. He finally remembered where he had heard the name Yang Hui!

It was Cheng Yuanzhen who told him.

Yang Hui, the husband of Princess Xianyi, the daughter of Concubine Wu Hui. It was this Yang Hui who suggested to Concubine Wu Hui to frame Li Ying for rebellion!
