The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 27 The Absurd Imperial Decree

Backer King Yang Lin felt tired, and was about to go back to his room to rest when the butler Yang An ran over: "My lord, Eunuch Wu is here, and he seems to be carrying an imperial edict."

As soon as Yang Lin heard this, he got up to greet him, and the two met in the courtyard. When Eunuch Wu saw the king of the mountain, he stretched out the long scroll in his hand, and said loudly, "Under the imperial decree, the king of the mountain will accept the order."

Yang Lin quickly lifted his clothes and fell to his knees, kowtowing.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's Edict said: The emperor's uncle's daughter Yang Yuling is only twenty-eight years old, and I have become friends with you since the first meeting. I ordered you to send her to the palace within three days, and accompany the king to drive. There must be no mistakes, this is my honor!"

After hearing these few words, Yang Lin just stood there stupidly as if struck by lightning.He doesn't want to believe his ears, are we uncles and nephews?Although Ling'er is my goddaughter, she is similar to your Yumei, how could you get her attention and do such a bastard thing?You are not satisfied with the 72 concubines of the Sixth Court of the Sangong, and it is understandable to want to choose a beauty contest. There are so many beauties in the world, and you can choose any of them. How can you ruin the style of the family so much?
Oh, by the way, this must be the slander of Yu Wenhuaji and Yang Su's ilk. I offended these two boys, and they made trouble for it, but why did you believe it, and made an order without consulting me?
The backer king was so angry that he really wanted to pull Yang Guang in front of him and slap his mouth hard, but he still held back in the face of the imperial decree.

"My lord, accept the order!" Eunuch Wu was a little dissatisfied seeing the backer king hesitated for a long time.

"Oh... the old minister received the decree." The backer king knelt and climbed a few steps, tremblingly took the decree in his hand, then got up and put on a smile, trying to find out from eunuch Wu, "Eunuch, why did the emperor suddenly make such a decree?" ah?"

"My lord, how can a slave be able to guess the meaning of the long live dragon? I only pass the decree, and I don't know anything else. The mission of the slave has been completed. You rest, my lord, and the slave is leaving." Eunuch Wu kept his mouth tight. After finishing a few lukewarm words, he turned around and left with a flick of the fly brush.

After sending Eunuch Wu away, Yang Lin held the statue of the imperial decree and held a hedgehog in his hands. He unfolded it and read it twice, and finally gritted his teeth and said silently: "For the sake of the country and society of the Great Sui Dynasty, Ling'er has to be abandoned. Don't blame father." The king is ruthless! But this is also beneficial, let Ling'er and Yong'er separate, so that Yong'er won't be distracted by her all the time."

Thinking of this, he ordered: "Come here, call the princess to receive the order."

When Yang Yong and Ling Er were eyeing each other, when they heard that there was an imperial decree coming, Yang Yong cursed inwardly, what the hell, interrupted Lao Tzu's good mood, and lost another chance to improve his practice, what's wrong with this stupid king?

The two of them did not dare to neglect, and came to see the backer king.

Yang Lin saw that Yang Yong was also coming, and frowned, "Yong'er, you go out first, I have something to say to Ling'er."

Yang Yong saw that the old man was acting mysteriously, so well, go out as soon as he goes out, didn't he say that the imperial decree has come, what do you want to do with Ling'er?Why didn't the old man say it to my face?
Yang Yong promised to come out, but he walked very slowly. When he went outside and saw no one around, he quickly dodged and hid under the window, wanting to listen.

After dismissing Yang Yong, Yang Lin said: "Ling'er, this is the imperial decree from Eunuch Wu, please take a look." Then he handed the imperial decree to Ling'er.

Ling'er said in her heart, you can talk about anything, what imperial decree will Wansui make for me, and I am not his minister, neither will I go to the court to face the emperor, nor will I participate in any government affairs.But looking at Yang Lin's dignified expression, he knew that this matter must be related to him, and it was not a trivial matter.

Ling'er took the imperial decree in her hand and unfolded it, her flowery handsome face changed instantly, and the imperial decree fell into dust with a flick of her hands.

The backer king didn't blame her either, bent down to pick up the imperial decree, rolled it up respectfully and put it away, then turned around and said, "Get ready, enter the palace in three days."

"Father, how can this be? I'm her sister... How can Long Live make such a decree? You hurry up to the palace and let him take back his life!" Ling'er couldn't believe it was true. Yang Yong interceded, and Yang Guang gave her face in front of civil and military officials. She was still grateful to the emperor's brother, and her overall impression was good, but this decree made Yang Guang's image in her mind collapse.

"It's late...Ling'er, the Son of Heaven still speaks eloquently. How can there be any reason to take it back after the imperial decree has been issued? This matter has not changed..." Yang Lin also felt his face was short as he spoke, and turned his body away.

"Ah?..." Ling'er burst into tears as soon as she heard it, "Father, so you agree?"

"It can't be done, the sacred order is hard to violate. He is the king, we are the ministers, and the ministers can only obey. But Ling'er, you don't have to pay too much attention to this brother-sister relationship. You know your life experience. Since ancient times, how many The daughter of a prince and minister dreams of entering the palace, but she has never had the opportunity to drive with the king and enjoy all the glory. What an honor? Anyone who thinks about the good..."

"Father, don't talk about it! In the final analysis, I am not your own, right... That's all right, then Father Wang Ling'er asked you, Ling'er and Yong'er held hands, and you said it was insulting to the family, so what about this matter?" Say? Yang Yong and Wansui are siblings!" Ling'er interrupted the backer king, choked up and said.

Yang Lin's heart trembled, and his face was also a little hot, and finally turned his face fiercely: "Ling'er, although Yang Yong and Yang Guang are brothers, but one is Shao Bao, and the other is the king of a country, how can they be compared? You have heard this sentence before, is it the king's land in the whole world, and the guests who lead the crowd are the king's subjects! Let it be like this, it is useless to talk more."

After finishing speaking, Yang Lin didn't look at her, and turned around.

Ling'er burst into tears, turned around and ran with her head down, and almost bumped into someone just as she went out.She wanted to dodge but was held back by a big hand approaching her. Ling'er was startled, and when she saw it was Yang Yong, she stopped.

"How could this bastard do this? Wait until I enter the palace and kill him!" Yang Yong was furious. It turned out that he had listened to every word the father and daughter had just said.

After Yang Yong understood it, he gritted his teeth with hatred, and said to himself, it's understandable that Lao Tzu and Ling'er are a little bit ambiguous, because Lao Tzu came from the 21st century and has nothing to do with your Yang family.But you, as the king of a country, want to blatantly marry your god-sister, which is indeed suspected of incest. It seems that your nickname of "The King of Six Shorts" is not for nothing.As soon as I come to this troubled world, you will kill me, and now you want to rob me of Ling'er, I will never live with you!
"Yong'er, why are you here?" Yang Lin heard a voice outside and followed him.

"Oh, Father." Only then did Yang Yong feel that he had slipped his tongue, and quickly turned around to salute.

Seeing Yang Lin coming again, Ling'er ran away crying.

"Yong'er, what did you just say?" The backer king turned his face down, as cold as ice, his eyes were like two swords, piercing Yang Yong speechless.

"Although you are his elder brother and he is your younger brother, he is now the king of a country with supreme authority, and we as subjects can only obey. What you said just now is suspected of rebellion. If the traitor listens to it, They are worrying about maggots coming out of no holes, and naturally there will be troubles again, understand? I hope this kind of words will come out of your mouth for the last time!" The Backer King said sternly.

"It's the father, and the child is guilty." Yang Yong saw that the old man's loyalty to the emperor was too serious, he was really Yang Guang's defender, but now that he was fledgling, he had to compromise.

"Yong'er, you have to understand that everything you do for your father is for the country and society of the Great Sui Dynasty. Understand me." After speaking, Yang Lin sighed, turned and went back to the house.

Yang Yong returned to his room, and his subordinates brought warm boiled water. He scrubbed his body, changed his clothes, and lay down to rest.

The image of Ling'er weeping reappeared in his mind again, such a good girl, before Lao Tzu started to touch her, Hun Jun's hand stretched out, so good cabbages can't be all pigs!Damn it, no, I must not let this licentious tyrant succeed, if it is too bad, I will save Ling'er and fight out of the capital, I don't want to stay here long ago!This backer king is not Lao Tzu's backer either, he is so loyal to Yang Guang, sooner or later the two of us will have to fall out.

Thinking of this, Yang Yong left his room and came to Ling'er's embroidery building.It's time for the watch.

"Young Master Bao, the princess is not feeling well, and no one will be seen." Just as he was about to go upstairs, the servant girl Chun Tao appeared out of nowhere and stopped him.

"Go away, you little girl, I'm his older brother, and because she's not feeling well, I'm an older brother who came to see my younger sister." Yang Yong said, giving the chubby little maid Chuntao a hand. Pulling aside, he touched her butt intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hey, Young Master Bao, you?..." Chun Tao hid away from being blushed.

"Sister, don't cry, brother is here!" Yang Yong heard the weeping inside, pushed the door open and came in.
