Chapter 63: Before the decisive battle (2)

Shenshi

Daxing Palace, Renshou Palace

Yang Yong was lying on the dragon bed and was sleeping. A man in black stood beside the bed.

"Report to my master, last night, more than 400 assassins suddenly sneaked into the canyon, and all the more than 700 men in the canyon were killed!" The man in black said respectfully.

"Oh--" Yang Yong opened his eyes, "You can find out who did it!"

The man in black shook his body when he heard this and hesitated: "This - this -"

Yang Yong closed his old eyes, shook his hand and sighed, "Okay, you don't need to say anything! Where is the girl Shangguan?"

"It should be - you can come back tonight!"

"I heard that she suffered!" Yang Yong said in a long voice.

"The Imperial Guards killed and injured more than 3,000 people!"

Yang Yong opened his eyes and sat up, looked at her in surprise, and then sneered: "If you can make the girl Shangguan suffer, it seems that the dragon and the tiger are hidden in the canyon!"

The man in black seemed to have mustered up his courage and said softly: "Master, according to the investigation of the young man, there are nearly two thousand old, weak, women and children in the valley. Now all the men in the valley have died. These people are probably - I am afraid -"

Yang Yong was shocked, but looked at her deeply and said coldly: "Are you saying I was wrong?"

The man in black was so scared that he knelt down on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Master! How can you make a mistake? You are so slutty!"

Seeing her kneeling aside with fear, Yang Yong said gently: "Okay! Go down, I'm going to rest!"

"Yes! The little one left." The man in black said, stood up, bowed and retreated. When he arrived at the door, he turned around and opened the palace door and flew into the air.

Yang Yong looked at the swaying hall gate and couldn't help but chuckled: "This girl seems to have changed and she actually pleaded for others! Could it be that I was really wrong?"

Just then, a sharp voice sounded outside the hall.

"Emperor, the civil and military ministers are kneeling in Linguang Hall, begging the emperor to come to the court!"

Yang Yong was about to rest, and when he heard this, his eyebrows frowned and said impatiently: "Mr. Shi, what's going on? Haven't you been here in the morning?"

"I went back to the emperor and listened to their discussions. After the morning court, the prefect of the capital, Liu Wenzhen, reported to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel, saying that the Luoshui suddenly appeared in a strange situation these days, and I am afraid it will be ominous!"

"Oh!" Yang Yong was startled and shouted quickly: "Has Master Yuan sent someone to invite him?"

"Back to the emperor, I just asked Xiao Foer to invite him!"

Linguang Hall

Yang Yong sat on the dragon throne, swept the civil and military ministers in the hall, and said, "Xu Aiqing, what's going on with this strange appearance?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the first person in the right row, wearing a green robe about 60 years old, walked out, held white jade in both hands and arched towards Yang Yong, "Go back to the emperor, just now, the stream flowing into Luoshui from Huyang Stream in Mangshan these days suddenly turned red! This is an unknown sign!"

The left line of the old man who was about seventy years old in his bow back also stood up and said, "Yes, the emperor, it has been more than twenty years since the Great Sui Dynasty moved the capital here. The Luoshui River has always been clear, but now it has suddenly turned red in the past few days! A proverb has been heard in the city!"

"Yuan Aiqing, what proverb!" Yang Yong narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Luo Shuiqing, Great Sui Xing, Luo Shuihong, Taihua soft..." Yuan Aiqing closed his old eyes and shook his head and recited.

Yang Yong frowned slightly when he heard this. Isn’t this a slap to me? Taihua Ruo, Taihua Ruo... It’s not your turn to teach me if I want to become a crown prince.

While Yang Yong was thinking, he suddenly heard someone shouting at His Highness: "Your Majesty, I have also heard a proverb: Success or failure is not enough, and good luck is good!"

Seeing the emperor sitting on the dragon chaise, squinting his eyes as if he was listening to a book, Xu Yuan and the others looked at each other and said in unison: "I am asking the emperor to ask the emperor to make the 100th anniversary of the Sui Dynasty. Please go to Mingyang Palace to pray to the world, pray to the heaven and benefit the people!"

"I'm asking!" A group of civil and military ministers suddenly knelt down and said in unison.

Yang Yong sighed and said, "Okay! All my dear friends will get up. Let me think about this matter. Let's discuss it tomorrow morning! Let's retreat!" He said and stood up.

Seeing Yang Yong stand up, General Manager Shi, who was standing beside him, hurried forward and helped him into the back hall.

Taihua Palace, Prince's Bedroom

Old Pig Yang Cheng walked around uneasyly,

Taoist Master Qingyun sat aside with a sad look on his face, still crying.

"Bang--" Old Man Pig grabbed a teacup and threw it heavily on the ground, and said ruthlessly, "These dog slaves! I wish I could be abolished early! Hum--Mingyang Palace prays to the world! Why don't you just say that you can give me the orphan!"

Looking at the 'Old Pig' like an ant on a hot pan, Taoist Qingyun couldn't bear to say, "If you don't be the prince, you won't be the prince. This power is like a cloud--"

"What do you know!" Old Zhu stopped and turned around and roared at Taoist Qingyun.

Taoist Priest Qingyun's face changed and he said, "I don't know anything. If Xiao'er hadn't been rolled in, I would have returned to Mount Zhongnan now!"

When he heard Yang Xiao, Old Pig's eyes lit up, and then suddenly laughed: "Haha--Xiao'er, my son, you're so capable! I beat Shangguan's favorite to the point of falling!"

"I don't know where last night, more than four hundred black-clothed masked men came from the cliff and fell from the canyon. I heard that more than seven hundred people died in Luo Canyon! How can Xiaoer guard Luo Canyon now?" Taoist Qingyun cried softly when he said this.

"Where do you come from, where do you come from!" Old Pig said ruthlessly, "Isn't it just the dead soldier he raised!"

"I just handed over the jade pendant to Senior Brother Yuan, hoping that the emperor can issue an order to withdraw his troops!" Taoist Qingyun said quietly.

Old Zhu walked over happily, grabbed Master Qingyun's shoulder with trembling hands, and said in a trembling voice: "Concubine Rong, you - willing to let - Xiao'er come back!"

Daxing Palace, Renshou Palace

Yuan Tiangang closed his eyes and thought, sitting upright like a bell.

Seeing his beard fluttering, like a fairy-like swaying bone, Yang Yong couldn't help but sigh in surprise: "Oh! Master Yuan, you still have the same fairy-like style, but I am old!"

Yuan Tiangang opened his eyes and smiled, "Your Majesty is the son of heaven. He is blessed and kind, and will be famous in the future! How dare I compare with Your Majesty!"

"Oh! Good fortune!" Yang Yong sighed, "It's good that I'm not angry with these two evil sons! Oh, by the way, Master Yuan, you said that the civil and military officials in the court are so urgent and I will re-establish the crown prince. Do you help me calculate how many years will my foundation in the Sui Dynasty be? Or not?"

Yuan Tiangang pondered Youqing and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, the Sui Dynasty has had a prosperous Spring and Autumn Period for nearly two hundred years!"

"Oh!" Yang Yong opened his eyes wide excitedly, "What about the prince?"

"Your Majesty, didn't you make a decision long ago?" Yuan Tiangang asked with a smile.

"Oh! I seem to have made a mistake in my judgment. There are two thousand elderly, weak and weak women and children in the valley. They are all my people!"
