Yang Kuang rushed all the way. Thinking of the things that happened in the city gate just now, except for being a little strange about Yang Yi's abnormality, there was no other unusual move. According to his thoughts, he thought that Cui's people would come to make things difficult for him. Now it seems that he was thinking too much, and he didn't know if the wildfire had successfully kidnapped Cui Yunyi.

While thinking, the palace gate suddenly appeared in front of him.

The palace guards all reached out to signal Yang Yi to stop. Before entering the palace, they must present tokens that could enter the palace, such as certificates such as edicts. This is the rule.

Yang Kuang rode his horse but did not slow down. Instead, he waved his whip faster and accelerated. Seeing that this person was constantly, the Imperial Guards were about to order a fight. When the captain saw the face of the visitor clearly, he was shocked and panickedly ordered his men to put away their weapons and let the road go.

"See Your Highness King Wucheng!" When the captain knelt down, everyone followed the way and knelt down, throwing the weapons on the ground at will, and did not dare to raise their heads. Not to mention their palaces, even the common people in the market knew that King Wucheng had no need to ask for instructions when entering the palace, and came and went without stopping. The captain secretly thanked that his eyesight almost caused a disaster.

Yang Kuang, who was riding a horse, had no time to pay attention to him and ran straight to the palace. The imperial guards were kneeling down along the way, and no place was blocked from the palace gate to the harem.

The harem is where the emperor and his concubine live. Even Yang Kuang, who is full of honor and favor, has to get off the horse. No matter how brave he is, he dare not take the rules too obviously and not take the rules seriously.

After Yang Kuang got off the horse, he called a eunuch on duty and ordered it. The eunuch skillfully led the horse to the place where the horse was circled.

After Yang Kuang arranged the horses, he saw Wang Ningyuan, the chief general of the Imperial Guard. When he met this person, he was actually unhappy. Since he met this person, he had never given him a good look. With the skills he learned to read people, General Manager Wang can be said to be the only one who showed such strong hostility. Wang Ningyuan arched his back and said, "I will see His Highness Wucheng."

He didn't care. He had seen his face for so many years, and it was not bad. So he was going to say hello and go directly to see his father: "Master Wang is so diligent and is still inspecting this point. I won't say much about this when I was summoned by my father."

"Your Highness, wait."

Yang Kuang frowned and stared at the other party, feeling something was wrong in his tone, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Wang?"

"Have you forgotten something?" Mr. Wang approached a little with his armor in his arms, his heavy expression a little gloomy.

"Then please ask General Manager Wang for advice." Yang Kuangqiang said with a smile, but he was actually angry. It seems that this person is coming to cause trouble for him today. He has never liked targeting in such occasions.

"I dare not take the advice, I just remind your highness to take off his sword."

The sword on his waist was indeed to be removed when he entered the palace, but Yang Kuang had never removed it once. Emperor Shang acquiesced to his privilege of going to the palace, but he didn't say it clearly that this is something that everyone knows. Even if you, the Imperial Guard, don't care about the world, you can't not know about it for so many years in the palace. You have never removed it before, and General Wang has never reminded you, and you have to remind you today. This trouble is too obvious.

He suppressed the anger in his heart, but his smile became even brighter. Yang Kuang was the more angry he liked to laugh. He laughed to the highest point, which was the most annoying moment: "Mr. Wang, I don't seem to need to take off my sword."

"Does Your Highness have His Majesty's permission? No, right?" General Manager Wang asked back, not allowing at all.

"It's true, but General Manager Wang, what if I don't want to take off my sword today?" Yang Kuang began to provoke. He couldn't let this guy suppress him in this matter, otherwise he would achieve his prestige because of his concessions today, which would become a hidden danger.

General Manager Wang glared at his eyes, stepped forward with one foot, and said, "Then I can only do my best to do it for you."

"You try." Yang Kuang put one hand on the hilt of the sword, and his momentum was not bad.

The sound of horse hooves came from behind. It turned out that Eunuch Xie and Yang Yi rushed to the palace and happened to meet the confrontation between the two. Yang Kuang did not put down his hand holding the hilt because someone came to put down his hand. General Manager Wang changed his face and treated the tribute to the two who were coming, saying: "See Your Highness Wenping."

Xie Lianghai glanced calmly and immediately understood the process. After helping Yang Yi off the horse, he took a small step to Yang Kuang's side, and deliberately said to Wang Ningyuan: "Your Majesty has a life, and you are allowed to go to the hall with swords and shoes, and you must not stop it."

With Emperor Shang's words, even if Wang Ningyuan was reluctant, he had to compromise. No one here dared to question the reality and reality of Xie Lianghai's words, that is, the eunuch who followed Emperor Shang day and night, was the person Shang Emperor trusted the most.

"Since it is your Majesty's order, I will definitely abide by it." Wang Ningyuan exhaled heavily and reached out to ask the three of them to go directly.

However, Yang Kuang noticed some clues in the subtle changes in the other person's face. When Wang Ningyuan's gaze fell on Yang Yi, the corner of his mouth rose significantly, and when he turned to himself, he turned back to his serious and unkind expression.

Everything was explained at this moment, and she was clearly a follower of Yang Yi. Although his younger brother was unintentional to power, those who were willing to sacrifice his life to follow him were all over Luoyang because of his benevolence and wiseness. His most dazzling trait was the ideal king in everyone's hearts, or... Yang Kuang didn't think about it, and the answer might be cruel.

So he let go of the hilt of the sword and stared at Wang Ningyuan with a smile and said word by word: "General Wang is dedicated to his duties and is really a good minister of my great merchants. I will pay more attention to General Wang in the future." This explicit threat is a gift to him.

"I thank Your Highness, but it's better to keep a distance." General Manager Wang still responded bluntly.

The gossip between the two of them, the sharpness that was stabbed even Yang Yi, who was standing behind him, felt a chill behind him. At this moment, he did not make things difficult for Wang Ningyuan for the emperor and felt that he had a sense of advantage. He still knew the eldest brother, but what he was worried about was the safety of General Manager Wang.

Yang Kuang did not intend to end it. He was not a narrow-minded person, but he could not bear a hidden danger growing on his nose. His only thought was to teach the other party a lesson and a big punishment right now.

"Wang Ningyuan, kneel down."

Yang Yi stared at him with wide eyes, unable to believe that the emperor's brother made such a request, and his expression of looking at Wang Ningyuan had changed from shock to angry.

"I am not convenient for my husband to bow, and my highness has no right to kneel down."

"Last time, kneel down!" Yang Kuang's hand, who had just put down, grabbed the hilt of the sword and pulled out the sword, pointing to Wang Ningyuan's chest, only a punch. This was a completely forced kneeling. If Wang Ningyuan still did not kneel in the next second, Yang Kuang would definitely stab the sword. It was not impulse, but definitely not being punished by the Shang Emperor. After all, it was the trouble that the other party provoked first. First, he won the victory and made contributions; second, the Shang Emperor would never punish himself too much because of Wang Ningyuan's death. The father probably had a good understanding of Wang Ningyuan's thoughts. Those involved in party struggles had already touched the emperor's taboo.

Yang Yi stood up and wanted to ease the conflict and said, "Brother, General Manager Wang is the general manager of the Imperial Army, so you must not do this."

The only response to him was the cold word "get out" in Yang Kuang's mouth, which was deeply angry and could not do anything.

Wang Ningyuan was even more furious when he saw that Yang Yi was insulted by Yang Kuang. The constraints of his duties made him unable to disobey, but he could not give his life to this person. Therefore, he had the idea of ​​self-defense. He did not think that a spoiled royal child could take his life, and the position of the Imperial Guard General was not in vain.

Xie Lianghai did not say anything to stop him, nor did he show any panic, nor did he even feel a little surprised. Instead, he turned his eyes to the direction of the palace gate, and then smiled faintly after seeing the person he wanted to see.

"Kuang'er! Yi'er!" He shouted intimately and casually. Apart from their father, there was probably only the old prince. The two of them looked at each other. They were the old prince who was jumping around all the way. He smiled, as if he had seen nothing at all.

"Uncle Wang."

"My nephew greets Uncle Wang." Yang Yi's words seemed even more respectful and polite, and he was judged by the superiors, but no one dared to say anything about it.

The old prince came to the two of them with a smile, pinched Yang Kuang's sword body and skillfully took it back to Yang Kuang's waist, hugged Yang Kuang and Yang Yi, and walked in without looking back. He turned around and blinked at Xie Lianghai, and in response, Xie Lianghai nodded and signaled.

"My father-in-law is worried." Wang Ningyuan knew that it was Eunuch Xie who invited the old prince to come over in advance, so he stepped down with a sensible look.

Xie Lianghai shook his head helplessly, looked at Wang Ningyuan's back as he left, and said, "It's too tough and easy to break, and his face is dead."

On the other hand, the old prince brought a nephew into the Shang Emperor's study room with one hand and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, see who I brought you."

Emperor Shang put down the books in his hand and smiled knowingly when he saw the scene in front of him. Especially when he saw Yang Kuang safe and sound, he was even more relieved.

"My son pays homage to the father."

"No gift." Emperor Shang's sleeves waved his sleeves and went up to help Yang Kuang up, took Yang Kuang's hand and took him to the tea table. Yang Yi, who was kneeling beside him, seemed very unnecessary and felt a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, Xie Lianghai, who followed him in, stepped forward and helped him up to the tea table.

The father and son, together with the old prince, sat down together.

Emperor Shang could not hold back his inner joy and held his hand that had not yet been released and said to Yang Kuang: "It's really hard for Kuang'er to go to the northern border."

"What does the father say? These are what the sons should do."

"Hahaha, I am worthy of being my child. I have won a great victory and have gained a face for my Shang Dynasty, so that everyone in the world knows that my Shang Dynasty is not easy to mess with. Hahaha." The Shang Emperor did not hide his favor and importance to Yang Kuang, and has always praised Yang Kuang's great victory this time.

The old prince interrupted, "Da Shang is not easy to mess with. Kuang'er did a beautiful job this time, so that those guys from Northern Tang can reflect on it."

"I admire the emperor's army from the bottom of my heart when I am repelling the enemy." Yang Yi also echoed and praised Yang Kuang.

Yang Kuang, who is the center of the topic, was unmoved. Apart from his father and Uncle Wang, only Yang Yi's words were not sincere, and he would not be too proud and lost his true heart.

"The father praised it. Before going to war, my son praised Haikou to take off Gong Qi's tiger head. In the end, he could only repel the Tang army, and it was really hard to make a contribution."

The Emperor Shang also remembered that Yang Kuang had indeed said this and said, "Kuang'er doesn't have to be too humble. Didn't he say he was sure at that time? Besides, the battle was so disadvantageous that he could defeat the Tang and Hu coalition with one army. This military merit alone would be enough to shock the world."

He is a powerful general? This little military achievements are just a basic accusation of a general. In the eyes of outsiders, he is the one who has the disadvantage. In fact, few people know that Gong Qi is the one who has the disadvantage, and Yang Kuang is not yet at the point of not being able to know himself.

"By the way, the sword that my father gave to me during the war, Erchen brought me here in person today, and I will come with me to me." Yang Kuang took off the sword he was wearing with him, held it with both hands and handed it to Emperor Shang.

Yang Yi was shocked again. Unexpectedly, the emperor's sword with him was his father's sword. The old prince seemed to have expected it, and he had heard of this, so he was already surprised at that time.

The Emperor Shang smiled indifferently, pushed back the sword handed over, and said solemnly: "Kuang'er, what is this sword of Father? You have repelled the enemy for the Shang Dynasty. You are qualified to own this sword. I will officially reward you today."

"Thank you, Father." Yang Kuang really took over the sword. He didn't see Yang Yi's continued shocked expression. The emperor's brother was too rude. At least he should be modest. Of course, for Yang Kuang, being polite is hypocritical. He never needed to pretend to be hypocritical to his father. How should he change it?

"Come, pass on my will." Emperor Shang ordered, and soon two people were holding pens and the other was preparing to write the imperial edict.

The three of them were waiting for the Shang Emperor's later words.

"Yang Kuang, King Wucheng, made great contributions to defeating the enemy, promoted the general of the enemy, with a reward of 100 taels and 100 cents of money. He specially gave him a sword to him, hoping that he would continue to encourage him and live up to what I hope."

After the order was written, the two of them respectfully handed it over. Emperor Shang took out the jade seal he carried with him and stamped it on the imperial edict, and handed it over to the Xuanyu Hall.

"My son thanks my father for his grace." Yang Kuang was a little flattered by this honor. It was not just a word that the general became a general. The general had the power to control his troops. In other words, the Emperor Shang gave him the power that was as good as Gu Jinsong - the current military power in the North was in his hands.

Just as he wanted, there would be no need to worry about fighting Gong Qi next time. Everything in the northern border could be deployed by him, and no official could be overshadowed. This was undoubtedly a great help to him. The father understood the situation and carefully handed over one border to his eldest son, who he valued the most.

The old prince laughed and said, "You are much more arrogant than Uncle Wang back then. Uncle Wang was so talented that he could not become a general even though his literary talent was so powerful. Hahahaha."

"You said this as if I was bullying you." The Emperor Shang said to the old prince in anger.

"How dare I, how dare I?" The old prince pulled over.

After the four of them became famous for the tea made by the palace maid, they were about to leave. After all, they didn't know what else to say. Emperor Shang was so moved that he wanted to say it when he was not seen, but he couldn't say it after seeing it. It was really awkward.

"Father, my son will say goodbye first." Yang Kuang bowed in a regular manner.

"My son said goodbye, father and emperor take care of their health." Yang Yi also said back.

The only three of them who are not good friends in the palace were left in the entire hall.

"Lianghai, I'm a little angry." Emperor Shang put away his smile and looked full of anger. He was no longer the court's unanimous power, but the anger from the heart.

"Your Majesty takes care of your health and must not be angry."

The old prince directly covered Xie Lianghai's voice and said, "What's your majesty angry about?"

"I hate those individuals, those who use my son to make their own plans, they don't know how to restrain themselves."

"Your Majesty is saying that Cui and the others..."

Xie Lianghai glared at the old prince for a rare moment and reminded him that he had asked too much.

The Emperor Shang didn't care and continued, "After the completion of the Yi'er King's Ceremony, not only Cui, but many people were ready to move. Do they really think I don't know what they were thinking? There are so many in the whole of Luoyang."

No one expected that this benevolent and wise king knew a lot. Emperor Shang was indeed a wise king, but it does not mean that he had no temper. Any king would not like to be used by others to be used by his son.

"What does Your Majesty want us to do?" Xie Lianghai hit the nail on the head.

"I will never tolerate it! I want them to know! Who is the emperor of the Shang Dynasty?" The last sentence of Emperor Shang was almost roaring. There was no one in the study, resounding in an extremely loud way, constantly surrounding the ears of the three of them.

The old prince pouted and didn't say anything. He knew that Emperor Shang was really angry and said, "Your Majesty, do you need me to mention those people?"

"Go, I said I will never tolerate it." Emperor Shang gasped heavily and ordered Xie Lianghai to say, "Go and help me collect all the followers about them in the palace, clean them all, and leave no one left. I will not turn a blind eye."

"Yes." The old prince and Xie Lianghai said in unison. The two were about to leave, but suddenly they were stopped by the Shang Emperor.

"You two, remember, don't involve too much, and don't hurt outsiders." After hesitating, Emperor Shang still reminded him that his kindness was not pretending, and what he said came from his original heart.

The two looked at each other and bowed and said goodbye.

Now there is only Emperor Shang left. This emperor above ten thousand people has felt sad for the first time. As the lord of the Great Shang Dynasty, he was controlled everywhere. The party of his ministers has caused him a headache for a few days. He has not tried to break up for so many years, but unfortunately he was too complicated. The current situation was a last resort, and he could do everything he could to accomplish for the future goal.
