Chapter 54

After Wu Xiangxiang entered the palace, she was led to the imperial study by the servants. She glanced at the tall Yang Chengjian, and she unconsciously smiled slightly.Yang Chengjian was a little uncomfortable by her smile, and reluctantly sat on it to accept her kneeling and saluting. When she got up, he said with a straight face, "General Wu, you have worked hard all the way."

Wu Xiangxiang looked at him quietly for a while, then smiled slightly and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your compassion, I don't have to work hard."

Yang Chengjian's brows trembled slightly, and his expression couldn't help being kinder. He asked, "Is General Wu doing well at the border all these years?"

"Very good." Wu Xiangxiang smiled lightly, but her eyes were fixed on his expression.

Yang Chengjian looked away uncomfortably, and said suddenly: "By the way, you haven't given the seat to General Wu yet, Yongfu, why didn't you remind me, and you don't know how to serve tea. I remember that General Wu loves Tieguanyin the most. Hurry up and make a cup of the new Guanyin that was newly tributed this year for General Wu, and let General Wu take away the rest."

Yongfu hastily confessed his guilt and went to work, but he couldn't care less about the relationship between the emperor and Duke Wu. He has not been with Yang Chengjian for a long time, but he knows the rules of the palace.

"It's hard for Your Majesty to remember." Wu Xiangxiang smiled, and when the little eunuchs moved the chairs, she sat down on the big horse with a golden sword, took a sniff of the tea that Yongfu personally served, and nodded slightly.

Yang Chengjian couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and wanted to put up his airs again, so he heard Wu Xiangxiang say, "What orders does your Majesty call for?"

Without waiting for Yang Chengjian to say anything, Wu Xiangxiang lowered her head and took a sip of tea, telling Yang Chengjian to wait for her to drink the tea leisurely before daring to speak.Wu Xiangxiang glanced at Yang Chengjian as if she didn't notice, with a slight smile still hanging on the corner of her mouth.

"General Wu, you destroyed the royal family of the previous dynasty..." Yang Chengjian gritted his teeth and pulled his face down to teach him a lesson. Seeing Wu Xiangxiang's eyes were slightly cold, he immediately changed the subject and said, "...It is true that there is a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, and has the style of a Wu family. Now Those old ministers are no longer holding on to this matter, and there is no major battle at the border, why don't you stay in Chang'an, and I will make you the princess?"

"Only a princess?"

"I want to make you a princess or Mrs. Guo..." Yang Chengjian even put aside his honorific title. He was punished by Wu Xiangxiang when he was a child, and now he still feels a little guilty when he sees her.Fortunately, he is also the emperor now. If the two of them met before, Wu Xiangxiang would definitely try his kung fu first. Every time he was beaten to the ground by her, and he was tied to a horse by Wu Xiangxiang and thrown into a deep mountain because of his slack in martial arts... Thinking of With these past events, Yang Chengjian deeply felt that it was not easy to live, so if he could not provoke this cousin, he should not provoke her.

"That's not necessary. My aunt won't agree, and I don't want to be called a lady." The aunt Wu Xiangxiang mentioned is the emperor's biological mother who is now the queen mother. She put the tea away and asked, "If I were a man, would I What reward do you get?"

"In terms of merit and relationship, he should be named the Duke of the state, and there will be three thousand households in the city." Yang Chengjian said with a big hand wave.

"Sounds passable."

"But……"

"Why, I can't give my Wu family the title of Duke of the State. Does Your Majesty think that I am a woman and look down on me? How about we make gestures."

"No need." Yang Chengjian waved his hands again and again, and asked bravely: "Do you have a man who is attractive now? The mother is still anxious about your marriage."

Wu Xiangxiang's former fiancé died at the border. Like many generals of the Wu family, Yang Chengjian still remembered that man who was somewhat simple and honest, and also remembered how picky Wu Xiangxiang's future husband was. After finally satisfying them all, they still failed to marry a beautiful woman.

"Let my aunt rest assured that there is no shortage of handsome and talented people in Chang'an City. I will pick a few into the mansion tomorrow." Wu Xiangxiang said calmly.

"Cousin, are you forcing your mother to give you a marriage?"

"If the Empress Dowager bestows the marriage, it must be because someone is chewing their tongues behind their backs. Would Your Majesty wish that the general who returned from the bloody battle would be annoyed by those who have nothing to do?"

With such cruelty, Yang Chengjian didn't want to be this villain and give marriages casually, lest he be a human being inside and out.After making a bitter face, he immediately said seriously: "Okay, I know. I will make you the heroine of Wu and become the only female heroine in Dakang."

Wu Xiangxiang smiled nonchalantly, and said, "This is all nonsense, let's talk about business. What is your Majesty's arrangement for the 20 Wu family army?"

"What's the plan, Mrs. Heroine?"

"Weichen is getting old now, and wants to stay in Chang'an to enjoy the blessings. Let the few people taught by Weichen take care of the affairs of the Wu family army. They will always know more than the newcomers."

"Then let's arrange it like this. It's just that although Chang'an is prosperous and beautiful, the heroine probably won't get used to it?"

"Who said that, who would not be used to staying in such a lively place. Could it be that His Majesty is bored, so why don't you make some noise to make His Majesty lively?"

"No need, I and the Queen Mother both like to be quiet. The Queen Mother has been waiting for you in the harem long ago, you'll be there soon." Yang Chengjian said earnestly.

"Yes, my minister will leave." Wu Xiangxiang gave a salute, then followed the servant and strode towards the harem.

Yang Chengjian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her walking away, and Yongfu helped him play the fan knowingly, and when he calmed down, he said with a smile: "Mr. Wu Guo has a refreshing temper."

"Yes. Fortunately, it's a woman." Yang Chengjian sighed.

Yongfu lowered his head, pretended not to hear that sentence, and continued to shake his fan.

Yang Chengjian didn't care that Wu Xiangxiang was so ostentatious, she had made enough credit for her to act without looking at anyone's face, not to mention that she still had one-third of the country's troops under her command, and her Wu family army was all elites. The ruthlessness of the stock is no match for other armies.Instead of handing over the troops in her hands to other people, he is indeed more assured that Wu Xiangxiang is in charge of the Wu family army. With her in the Wu family army, there will be no chaos. As a Wu family, Wu Xiangxiang will not belong to any faction, and she will only be loyal to the emperor alone. .

Liu Wu Xiangxiang is in the capital, and in the eyes of outsiders, she may be suspected of taking her as a hostage. As long as Wu Xiangxiang stays in Chang'an, the Wu family army at the border will not act rashly.But this is also to protect Wu Xiangxiang, she is indeed not young anymore, even though she still looks beautiful.After many years of bloody sand battles, Wu Xiangxiang already had many hidden wounds on her body. She might still be able to fight in battle, but she couldn't participate in the battle for a long time.If she stays in Chang'an for recuperation, maybe she can live a long life, otherwise she may not live forever.

Wu Xiangxiang herself knew that she was not afraid of death, but wanted to retreat when there was no major war in the world, and let the people below take up the heavy responsibilities. If there was a day when she was really needed, she would naturally call for a fight.

 Wu Xiangxiang: I just quietly watch you pretend.

  Yang Chengjian: Don't I want to lose face~ Who will form a CP for us in the future, can you let me go, I still want to live a peaceful life...
