Luoyang, a small courtyard with two entrances next to the Luoyang Governor's Mansion, Wang Huan, dressed in a blue official uniform, quickly stepped into the courtyard.
As soon as she came in, Wang's wife Gao, who was teasing her baby in the courtyard, was suddenly startled.
"Husband? Why are you back? Aren't you working in a government office?"
But after Mrs. Gao called Wang Huan, Wang Huan still didn't react and rushed into his room quickly, which shocked Mrs. Gao.
"What's going on? Husband, don't scare me!"
Mrs. Gao then handed their baby Wang Chengfeng to a servant in the cauldron next to him and walked into the study. As soon as he entered, he watched his husband busy here.
Wang Huan was writing and drawing on a piece of paper in such a hurry that he didn't even notice that he came in.
Seeing such a scene, Mrs. Gao couldn't help but feel distressed and stepped forward to ask.
"Husband, what's wrong with you? If something happens, please tell me and don't bear it here alone. Although my father's position is similar to yours now and he can't give you much help, he can always give you advice. ?」
After Mrs. Gao said this, Wang Huan finally finished writing on the paper in his hand and looked at her ecstatically.
"Madam, this is a good thing, a great thing!"
As soon as Wang Huan said it was a good thing, Mrs. Gao finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, after she was relieved, she saw Wang Huan lowering his head here again, looking a little crazy, and stepped forward to comfort Wang Huan.
"Husband, what's wrong with you? A gentleman should not change his face even if the mountain collapses in front of him. What is this about you?"
Mrs. Gao looked at Wang Huan who was busy here and didn't know what to do. Ms. Gao asked again with concern, and Wang Huan looked at Gao like this and patted his head.
"You see I'm confused. I just didn't react. Thanks to Madam for reminding me. Please arrange for someone you trust in your family to send this letter out urgently."
Mrs. Gao took the letter and saw that it was actually sent to Yanmen. She had never met Wang Huan's brother-in-law, Xu Guichang, the magistrate of Yanmen County, and couldn't help but be very curious.
"Is it because our brother-in-law is getting promoted and coming to Luoyang?"
Wang Huan smiled and shook his head, "No, no."
But he just said this, and before explaining the reason to his wife, their little baby was crying loudly in the courtyard.
When Mrs. Gao heard their baby crying and the unfamiliar voice asking questions, she was so frightened that she hurriedly ran out.
"What do you do? Why do you come here?"
Hearing the servant's voice before he came out, Gao's expression changed drastically. No matter what good thing happened to Wang Huan, he quickly rushed out of the room and rushed towards the location of their baby. , Anyone can have problems, but their baby cannot have problems no matter what.
Just after Gao quickly rushed out of the study, Wang Huan threw aside the letter that he was about to give to Gao but had not yet fallen into Gao's hands.
"Let's wait until later to write this letter. My children are the top priority."
Wang Huan thought like this, and also quickly followed his wife out. As soon as he came out, I saw a group of soldiers standing in the courtyard of his house, and a general wearing a helmet squatting there and looking at his own child.
His own child burst into tears in front of him.
As soon as Gao came out, he didn't care about the general, let alone the soldier's identity or where he belonged to the army. He quickly picked up his child from the servant, and just talked here.
"What do you do? Why do you come to my mansion? Why do you want to scare my children?"
When Gao just picked it up, he looked at the little baby. He was holding a very beautiful jade pendant in his hand. However, before he could wonder where the jade pendant came from, Wang Huan said something from behind.
"Brother Li didn't expect it to be you, that you would come so quickly."
"Um? Don't you welcome me here so soon? I see someone who looks a lot like you.
Baby, I guess it's your son. Why don't you play with him here? I gave him a jade pendant. He was very happy, but I want to take this jade pendant back and give him another one. He quit when it came to making things. This jade pendant is not as good as the thing in my hand. "
Xu Yunyan was holding a gold medal and gesticulating there, but Wang Huan saw this and grabbed it and laughed even more happily.
"Brother Li, Brother Li, where are you making this trouble? I..."
"If you haven't said anything bad about me, I will admit that I have always been a wise and powerful person. If you say that I am unreliable, then it is not me."
Before Wang Huan finished speaking, Xu Yunyan immediately said this shamelessly, and the Gao family was no longer anxious here. Who knows that they had never seen such a shameless look.
However, Gao was not ungrateful. The general's armor was so gorgeous that he immediately handed Xu Yunyan the gold medal version and jade pendant that Wang Huan had snatched.
"How can the general spend so much money? Please accept it quickly."
Wang Huan said here as he watched his wife give away the jade pendant she had finally snatched.
"It shouldn't be given to him."
Xu Yunyan twitched the corner of his mouth.
"This jade pendant has an incredible pattern on it."
Xu Yunyan waved the jade pendant here, and Wang Huan and Gao also looked over. There was indeed a pattern on the jade pendant that could not be seen for what purpose. Xu Yunyan put it in his arms.
"This is a jade pendant given by the Supreme Emperor. It can be used to walk in the imperial city. If I give it to you and you will not be able to enter the imperial city in the future, you will be in big trouble."
At this moment, Wang Huan suddenly realized, "Yes, you are the teacher of His Royal Highness. Something must have been stolen in the imperial city. You are so careless. You dared to take out such an important thing and give it to my child." , which means my wife is kind-hearted, otherwise you would never give it to me if you gave it to me."
Wang Huan looked at Xu Yunyan as if he was determined to defeat you, and Xu Yunyan was smiling happily.
"Okay, okay, do whatever you want, but I didn't expect your child to be so old, almost the same as your brother-in-law's child."
But just after saying these words, Xu Yunyan's expression suddenly changed.
"No, no, this..."
Xu Yunyan was quibbling here, Wang Huan looked at him and said, "You don't need to say it, I know this matter."
The two of them were just being polite here. Mrs. Gao hurriedly handed the child to the servant and said, "Since the general is here, why don't you invite the general to sit in the high hall quickly so that I can offer you some tea? It's almost noon." Okay, how about I prepare food and have a meal here?"
Wang Huan said here after his wife came forward, "This is a great kindness."
But Xu Yunyan waved his hand, "No need to go to such trouble, I have something else to do, and I have to accompany His Highness the Crown Prince at noon."
"What? His Highness the Crown Prince, has His Highness the Crown Prince also come to Luoyang City?"
Gao was visibly frightened. Such a noble person actually came to Luoyang.
Wang Huan nodded, "Yes, I forgot to tell you, Brother Xu came here to protect the Crown Prince and is also His Royal Highness's teacher."
Mrs. Gao echoed Wang Huan here.
"You just said that General Xu is the teacher of His Highness the Crown Prince, but I don't know why the Crown Prince is here. There are many people in Luoyang who are dissatisfied with the Li Tang Dynasty."
After Gao said this, Wang Huan glared, "What nonsense are you talking about? Now that the world is peaceful, who dares to disrespect my Majesty? You said this, in front of Brother Xu, what will happen if other people are here?"
But Xu Yunyan waved his hand here. "It's okay, we brothers have something to say to each other, and what you said just reminds me that I can't let down my guard just because the world is peaceful."
After Xu Yunyan finished, he turned to look at the people beside him, "You didn't hear what they just said, did you?"
"did not hear."
These people didn't hear what they were saying here. Xu Yunyan's face darkened, "You guys, why do you have pig heads?"
Xu Yunyan's words made these people feel a little puzzled here.
"General, isn't it right that we didn't hear it? Do we have to hear it? After hearing it, report it to the general?"
Xu Yunyan's old soldier was half joking with Xu Yunyan here, and Xu Yunyan sighed, "You have to weigh some things carefully. Haven't you heard that some people are dissatisfied with His Majesty today? Why don't you hurry up and go out and talk to the other brothers?" Let’s talk about it and ask them to do a good job in guarding it, loosening it on the outside and tight on the inside, so that no accidents can happen no matter what.”
"Ah? I see. The general taught me that I will go now."
Two of Xu Yunyan's old soldiers ran out in a hurry, while the other prince's guard who followed Xu Yunyan led his soldiers and said, "What General Li said is true, what about us? I'd better go out and talk to our brothers. I don't know what the general wants." How about the next one?"
"Go!"
Xu Yunyan nodded, but when they were about to leave, he said something behind him.
"We must be careful not to let anyone tell from our appearance that we are prepared."
"Yes! Don't worry, General Li."
Everyone turned around and shouted to Xu Yunyan, "Don't worry." When they heard everyone calling Xu Yunyan General Li, Wang Huan and his wife became curious.
"Brother Xu, isn't your surname Xu? Why did you suddenly change your surname to Li?"
After Wang Huan asked this question, his wife also looked at Xu Yunyan very curiously. When Xu Yunyan chuckled and had not yet explained, a prince's guard and his soldiers next to him said something here.
"This is General Yunhui, General Li Yingli. Marquis of Yun County."
General Yunhui?
Wang Huan was instantly startled, "Brother Xu, no, Brother Li, you lied to me so miserably. You are actually a Marquis or General Yunhui. How could you lie to me like this before? I am so young. My soul, oh my, I can’t bear it anymore, you have to get me some more real money to calm my shock.”
Wang Huan was half-joking here, while Xu Yunyan looked at him.
"Okay, okay, when did I lie to you? They were right. Now I am Li Ying, both Marquis of Yun County and General Yunhui. I am a third-grade military general. But one thing has not changed. I am You still have the same Xu Yunyan here as always."
"oh?"
Wang Huan looked at him, "You're not going to use a fake identity to deceive us again, are you? If you have such an identity and status, you can just pull out a vest, but we can't tell the truth from the fake."
Wang Huan looked at Xu Yunyan as if there was nothing I could do if you tried to lie to me again, and Xu Yunyan smiled.
"How do I put this? I have a little bit of military exploits, and the Emperor gave me the name Li Ying, so I became what I am now. But I won't talk about that. Anyway, that's what it is."
Xu Yunyan changed the topic here, and Wang Huan nodded, "Okay, now I finally know why I can't find any news about you Xu Ying or Xu Yunyan in Chang'an City. It turns out that you are already called Li Ying. Good guy, it was all in vain. You have lost my sympathy."
But just after Wang Huan finished speaking, he was suddenly startled: "Are you Li Ying? Did you create the Qiongzhou Navy?"
Xu Yunyan said indifferently, and Wang Huan looked at him with a surprised look.
"Tell me how many things you are hiding from us."
"There's not much I'm hiding from you."
Xu Yunyan looked at him innocently, as if he was a good person and would not lie to others.
