Chapter 146 Confrontation between brothers and the palace

Yan Que was a little surprised after hearing this. After all, he knew very well the plan of His Majesty in front of him. How could he agree to it so easily?

Although he had such doubts in his heart, he quickly paused and said, "Master, I accept the order and thank you."

"Okay, please step back first. By the way, I said I want to reward you. I don't know if this marriage can happen yet. Okay, so you can go to the garrison camp and become the deputy commander." Emperor Qing said again.

"My lord, thank you for your kindness." After hearing this, Yan Que saluted again, stood up, and slowly exited the imperial study.

After Yan Que left, Emperor Qing's face became serious: "Come on, go and call Hong Sixiang for me."

At this time, Yan Que had followed his elder brother to his public house.

"Second brother, I haven't seen you for many years. I have grown taller and my body is much stronger than before. Okay, okay, let's have a drink when we go back later." Yan Xiaoyi said with a smile.

After hearing this, Yan Que felt a little awkward, but he could understand it. After all, he could be said to have been raised by the brother in front of him, so it was normal to ask these questions.

"By the way, second brother, His Highness was very happy when he heard that you were back. She also gave you the house in the west of the city? I will take you to see it in the evening." Yan Xiaoyi suddenly said

"Oh? Really? I was worrying about when to buy a house, but I didn't expect His Highness to directly reward me. This is really good. I have to thank His Highness properly." Yan Que said
"Of course, wait, you said you are looking for a house? What kind of house are you looking for? It's not like there is no place to live at home. Why, do you dislike your elder brother?" Yan Xiaoyi asked
"No, brother, where are you thinking? No, it's because I may be getting married soon, so I'm afraid it won't be convenient then." Yan Que quickly explained
"Oh, that's it. Wait a minute, second brother, what did you say? You said you were getting married? When? With whom?" Yan Xiaoyi hurriedly asked after hearing this.
"Brother, it's not convenient to talk here. I'll talk to you slowly when I get home in the evening. You go ahead and do your work. Brother, I'll go back first." Yan Que said directly.
"I'll go with you later. If I don't ask you questions about this today, I won't be able to sleep. Let's go. I can drink a little more when I go back now." Yan Xiaoyi obviously wouldn't let him go.

After hearing this, Yan Que could only nod helplessly, and then the two brothers left the palace together. Of course, before leaving, Yan Xiaoyi gave Gong Dian instructions.

After the two brothers left the palace, Yan Que picked up his weapons, mounted his horse, and quickly returned to his home.

In the study, Yan Que felt very uncomfortable when he saw his brother staring at him, so he said, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Do you want to say something?"

"Speak? What do you want me to say? You are really very courageous. You dare to ask His Majesty to marry the princess? And you don't even discuss such a big matter with His Highness first?"

"Do you know what you are doing?" Yan Xiaoyi asked

"Why don't I know? Brother, I am not a child anymore. I know exactly what I am doing. If I want to marry the princess, I have to ask His Majesty to marry me first."

"After all, I might not be able to see clearly what His Highness was thinking back then, but how could I not be able to see it clearly now? Brother, do you think if I go to see His Highness, will the princess and I still have a chance?"

After hearing this, Yan Xiaoyi didn't know what to say for a moment, because he knew very well that his brother was right, so he didn't know what to say.

After a while, he said, "Second brother, do you think you will have a chance if you don't meet His Highness first? Don't say that His Majesty has already granted marriage. Even if he doesn't, it's impossible for you!"

"After all, you and I are destined to be born. Even if you don't go to see His Highness, His Majesty will still doubt you. Why do you think His Majesty wants you to go to the garrison?"

"Brother, I know all this, but I just want to give it a try. I won't be willing to try it myself, so don't try to persuade me." Yan Que said with a serious face.

"You, why don't you listen to my advice? You won't end well in the end, isn't our Majesty? Your bright future will be completely over by then." Yan Xiaoyi said excitedly

"I don't care. I don't care about being a high-ranking official or having a great salary or a bright future. I just want the princess. I just want her to be my wife. I will give up anything for her." Yan Que said
"You, I think you are obsessed, you are so, you are so!" Yan Xiaoyi said angrily
"Brother, stop talking about me. In fact, you are not the same. In fact, the reason why you are so angry is just because you don't want me to follow in your footsteps, right?" Yan Que said
"Second brother, what are you talking about? What does it mean to follow in my footsteps?" Yan Xiaoyi asked
"Brother, I have made it so clear, but you are still pretending. Since you want to hear it, I will tell you that the way you looked at His Highness when you were a child was different from others."

"I was too young at that time, so I didn't know what you were thinking, but it wasn't until I met the princess that I suddenly understood."

"I don't want to be like you. I don't even dare to speak outright. I dare to keep it in my heart alone. That's why I joined the army. That's why I am where I am today."

"Everything I have done is to one day be able to stand upright in front of her and tell her what I want to say instead of keeping it in my heart!" Yan Que said loudly.
You, you, Yan Xiaoyi opened his mouth for a long time, but in the end he only said these two words, and then he slowly sat down and lowered his head without saying a word.

At this time, Yan Que also realized that what he had just done was too much. In fact, he originally wanted to act to fool him, but for some reason, he suddenly got into the act.

So in this situation, he didn't know how to solve it. Just when he was in trouble, Yan Xiaoyi said, "Second brother, you are right, you really have to give it a try. You are braver than me."

"Tell me what you think. I'll study it with you. I may not have much chance in this life, but you are different. You can still give it a try."

"Brother, the most critical thing right now is the attitude of the Fan family. Uncle Sinan of the Fan family came out of His Majesty's residence back then and is very difficult to deal with."

"If this matter gets serious, Your Majesty will definitely intervene. Brother, leave everything else to me. You just need to help me stop one person." Yan Que said
"Haha, second brother, second brother, you are so rude, you are suspected of being a great master. You have great confidence in me." Yan Xiaoyi said with a smile.

"Brother, others don't know your ability, but I know it. You taught me all my abilities. How could you not be able to do it?"

"Besides, I don't want you to hold him back for long. As long as it allows me to make the matter bigger, that's enough. As for the rest, it doesn't matter." Yan Que said
"What? Second brother, did I hear you right? Is your plan just to make things worse? Nothing else? Are you sure this will be useful?" Yan Xiaoyi said

"Brother, don't worry. I naturally have my own plans for doing this. Your brother and I have been at the border for these years, and we are not really deaf to what's going on outside the window." Yan Que said meaningfully.

"Well, that's fine. Since you are so confident, it's settled. But when do you plan to go to Fan's house?" Yan Xiaoyi asked
"Brother, the sooner the better for this kind of thing. If possible, I hope to go tomorrow. But brother, do you really not need His Highness's side?" Yan Que hesitated.
"Your Highness, don't worry about it. I will tell you when the time comes. But since you have business to do tomorrow, drink less wine for a while." Yan Xiaoyi said, "Hey, brother, you are just doing this. You are a little underestimated of me, my drinking capacity is not as bad as you think, we can drink this wine as we want in a while." Yan Que said
"Hey, you said this, don't regret it then!" Yan Xiaoyi said directly

After hearing this, Yan Que naturally got up and walked out. Yan Xiaoyi burst out laughing when he saw this, and then the two brothers went straight to the flower hall to drink.

Time passed by and came to the next day. It was true that neither of the two brothers was drunk, but the inside story was not that simple, because both brothers cheated and used their internal strength.

Yan Xiaoyi looked at his second brother's leaving figure, got on the horse with a solemn expression, and then left.

At this time, Yan Que also rode his horse straight to Fan's house, and soon arrived at the door of Fan's house. As soon as the servants of Fan's house heard that Uncle Ping Yuan was coming, they hurriedly led the way respectfully.

The other one hurried in to report to Fan Jian. Yan Que went to the front hall and sat down not long after, but at this time Fan Jian was still confused.

After all, he asked himself that he had no friendship with the Yan brothers, so why did Yan Que suddenly come to visit?
With such questions, he quickly came to the front hall. After a few words of greeting, the two went directly to the topic.

"Uncle Pingyuan, I didn't know you were here today, why are you here?" Fan Jian said politely.

"Uncle Si Nan, to be honest, I took the liberty to come here today because I have something to ask for. I hope you can help me." Yan Que also replied directly.

"Oh? I wonder what Uncle Pingyuan is talking about?" Fan Jian became even more confused after hearing this.

"Uncle Si Nan, to be honest, when Yan met with Your Majesty yesterday, he begged Your Majesty to marry Princess Chen to me, but Your Majesty said that the marriage had been granted half a month ago, so?" Yan Que said
"What? Uncle Pingyuan, you don't want my Fan family to break off the engagement, do you? This is absolutely impossible, you should just go back." Fan Jian's face changed drastically after hearing this, and he immediately issued an eviction order.

"Uncle Si Nan, why are you doing this? In fact, what you are asking for is just the financial power of the inner treasury. So what if I give it to you?" Yan Que said calmly.

"What? You said give it to me? Wait, Uncle Ping Yuan, is this what you mean, or is it?" After hearing this, the Fan family suddenly felt that something was wrong. This seemed to be different from what they thought.

"Haha, it seems that my arrival has caused you to misunderstand something, Uncle Si Nan. I came here today on my own initiative and has nothing to do with anyone else." Yan Que said
"What? What do you mean? Uncle Pingyuan, are you kidding me?" Fan Jian asked
"Uncle Sinan, Uncle Sinan, I find you are really interesting. Your Majesty is like this, and you are like this too. It's as if the princess is just a tool, a tool for you to seize the inner treasury's financial rights."

"But don't forget, first of all, she is a person, a woman. At the same time, she is also my, Yan Que, whom I have chosen to be my wife in this life. I will never marry anyone other than her!" Yan Que retorted loudly.

After hearing this, Fan Jian didn't know what to say for a moment, because nothing Yan Que said sounded true, but he said it so loudly.

At this time, a rumor suddenly appeared in his mind, a rumor about Yan Xiaoyi, the commander of the Ouchi guards, which made a ridiculous idea flash through his mind.

Combining that ridiculous idea and looking at Yan Que in front of him, he suddenly understood why Yan Que said such a thing.

If this kind of thing were said by others, it would be deceptive nonsense, but when it comes to the Yan brothers, it seems much more normal. No, it is actually still not normal.

But this abnormality is due to the Yan family brothers themselves and has nothing to do with other things.

At the same time, in the palace, the two top masters of the Qing Kingdom were facing off.

"Commander Yan, do you know what you are doing? Do you know what the consequences will be if you do this? Also, do you really think you can stop this old slave?" Hong Sixiang said softly

"Eunuch Hong, you don't need to say anything. I know exactly what I am doing. After this incident is over, I will go and apologize to His Majesty myself. But now, you can't leave."

"Eunuch Hong, everyone in this world says that there is a great master hidden in the Qingguo Palace, and you are the most likely. But I don't really believe this."

"Today is just the right time for me to try to see if you are a great master." Yan Xiaoyi said in a deep voice.

This time it was Hong Sixiang's turn to be in trouble, because his family knew his own affairs, and he was not a great master. Although he was only half a step away, let alone half a step, he was not even close.

Although he was very confident that he could defeat or even kill Yan Xiaoyi, he could not do so because Yan Xiaoyi was the commander of the Qing Kingdom's forbidden army, and he could not kill without an imperial edict.

The most important thing is that although he is sure to kill someone, he is not sure that he will not be injured. Once he is injured, this layer of window paper will not be able to cover it.

Because the world agrees that only a grand master can hurt a grand master, and there has never been a grand master in the world who can be hurt by the ninth grade.

So he was in a dilemma for a while, not knowing what to do, and the situation here was quickly learned by Emperor Qing. At this time, Emperor Qing looked calm, as if nothing happened.

But only those who knew him knew that he was very angry at this time.

He wanted to take action directly, but he couldn't, because it wasn't the time to be exposed yet. He wanted to dominate the world, and he couldn't mess up his position just because of some trivial matter.

So at this time, like Hong Sixiang, he was helpless against this situation, and this was the first time he felt powerless since the killing more than ten years ago.
