Chapter 292
Ruthless
Chapter 292 Ruthless Man
The first time he came to Chang'an, Yang Xuan felt that this was heaven.
Paradise is prosperous, but there are also strict levels in heaven, and the jungle is also preyed upon by the jungle.
It's just that Yang's vassal family made him and Zhao Sanfu so embarrassed that they were almost killed.
This let Yang Xuan know that it turns out that things in this world cannot be done according to one's own temperament.
The breath of the second class gradually subsided, and he looked at the world with more complicated eyes.
He saw wealth and poverty.
He saw strength, but also weakness.
The powerful oppresses the weak, like the way of heaven.
Only then did he understand that the human world and the mountains are the same, tigers eat sheep, sheep eat grass; big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimps...
Strengthening oneself has become a most urgent goal.
He worked hard to lay the groundwork in Taiping, tried every means to gain fame for himself in Chenzhou, and wooed everyone he could.
All of this is not only due to the great cause of rebellion, but also stems from the insecurity in his bones.
Those years in Chang'an were his first teachers when he entered the world of flowers.
You have to be strong!
The strength of the old thief is not weak, but after all, his age is here, and it is difficult to make progress.
Yang Lue is so powerful that even Yang Xuan doesn't know his background, but he can't stay by his side.
Wang Laoer's progress is gratifying. If he met Wahai back then, Yang Xuan felt that the two should be evenly matched.
Ke Wahai is just a master of the Vasie Department, and when looking at the world, it is not mentioned.
The great cause of rebellion will continue to deepen, and the opponents encountered in the future will become more and more difficult. How to keep his own life has become a difficult problem for Yang Xuan and the small group.
Anyone can die, but Yang Xuan can't.
If he went, Yang Lue and others' half-life hard work and efforts would be in vain.
Yang Xuan often thought, why didn't the emperor father arrange a few powerful guards for himself?
To say the least, it must be an old man at this level. He doesn't worry about being assassinated at all when he goes out, let alone being beheaded by his opponent when he rushes.
After searching and searching but not being able to find the footsteps of an expert, Yang Xuan gradually gave up, thinking that when his wings were full, he would bring Yang Lue back from the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, he found an expert in a small town in the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
But the expert obviously had no interest in him, and after getting up, he just followed Wang's second child.
Yang Xuan smiled and said in a low voice: "It's already here, I don't believe I can't take you down!"
The old thief chuckled, "The villain said that the second child is blessed. No, his parents were killed by his enemies, so he survived. I met Lang Jun in Chang'an, and today I met an expert."
"Little Xuanzi, this is the protagonist template!" Suzaku said happily.
Yes!
Yang Xuan thought of a novel with a dull protagonist, isn't it like this?
Fortune favors fools!
Foolish people bully the sky does not bully!
A group of people went down to the top of the city, and someone arranged a place, and even arranged for a bath with fragrant soup.
"Shu Tan!"
Yang Xuan entered the bathroom, not knowing what was put in the water, he sniffed and relaxed.
"Who?"
Two petite women are blessed, "The slave is ordered to serve the nobleman."
"Get out!"
"I dare not!"
"Will be killed."
Whose idea is this?
And so fierce, why?
He thought of Wang Zhong, did he want to curry favor with me?
Yang Xuan frowned, "Then wait outside."
"Yes!"
The two women didn't know whether they were resentful or feeling lucky, they muttered after going out.
"This man looks so young."
"Ok!"
"Serving him is worse than serving a real nobleman."
"It is said that there is a servant and a doctor."
"That's right! The thieves attacked the city very powerfully, and the servant fought bravely, and then he killed the thieves and ran away."
"How is your house?"
"I, Aye, are back."
"My brother is back too."
A woman came over and said mysteriously: "Hey! I just heard that our people were greedy for life and afraid of death before, and it was the people of Tang who saved us."
"Tang people?"
"That's right! The envoy of the Tang Dynasty led our people to kill many rebels. He said that the command is determined, and he is a titan!"
"Ah! Is that so?"
"The Tang people are brave, that's true."
"Hey! If I knew earlier, I should serve that envoy. Wouldn't it be great if I could follow him to Tang Dynasty?"
"You think beautiful!"
Several women chattered, until a small official came over to inspect.
"Why didn't you go in to serve?" The little official was furious.
The three women knelt down, and one of them said, "That man doesn't want it."
Wang Zhong just explained that he must take good care of the Tang mission, especially the envoy Yang Xuan.
The little official knew what he was thinking, and he just wanted Yang Xuan to say something good for him when he returned to Bianjing. Although he had little hope, he didn't lose anything if he tried.
But the arranged woman was not sent out, Wang Shilang will definitely take it out on me later... Thinking of this, the little official's eyes became more stern.
"In the future, you wait for all three families to deliver food and grass..."
Squeak!
Door open!
Yang Xuan came out, his hair was still steaming.
"Hey! What's the trouble?"
When the petty official saw him coming out, he bowed and retreated, "The villain has disturbed me, so I will take my leave."
The three women cried miserably. They were not afraid of the so-called nobles, but the local officials.The nobleman leaves as soon as he leaves, and will not miss a weak woman.
But the little official is a local snake, and there are plenty of ways to deal with their family in the future.
The little official said earlier that the three of them should be sent to deliver food and grass.
This is military service, but you need to bring your own dry food.After going this way, the fields at home are not plowed, and if they come back, they will see the whole family starve to death.In addition, this person who served in the army would die on the way.
A petty official can break a house!
Make your life worse than death!
The three begged on their knees, while the little official stepped back and looked at them gloomily.
If he didn't serve the nobleman well, turning back to the magistrate would make his life worse than death.
In the eyes of the common people, the petty official is their heaven, who can control their life, death, honor and disgrace.
But in the eyes of small officials, Shangguan is his own heaven, and he can also control their life and death, honor and disgrace.
Just like at this moment, the three women were panicked, and he was also panicked.
The three women were afraid of him, he was afraid of the magistrate, the magistrate was afraid of Yuan Xiao, and Yuan Xiao was afraid of the kings.
It's like a food chain.
Big fish eat small fish.
Whenever there is a mistake in this food chain, for example, the big fish and the small fish come to eat dried shrimps together...
"and many more."
The three women heard a voice behind them, and the little official stopped.
The three couldn't help but look back.
"It's me who won't let them in."
"Yes." The little official said respectfully.
There was hope in the hearts of the three women, hoping that this noble man could help them.
One of them hesitated to speak.
But dare not say.
Say it now, and when the nobleman leaves, the petty official will get even worse and mess with her family.
No matter how powerful Guojiang Qianglong is, it may be this little official who decides the life and death of their family.
This is the reason why the so-called strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake.
Yang Xuan came over, "Come here."
Am I not human?The clerk looked up.
An official came in, "Your ambassador."
Yang Xuan pointed at the little official, "This person speaks very well."
The officer came over.
The little official was stunned, "The villain didn't..."
Bah!
The official slapped him away, and then beat him severely.
The kings have orders, they must serve this messenger well, as long as the request is not excessive, try to satisfy it.
What the officials knew better was that Wang Zhong was going to blame Yuan Xiao for all the mistakes of this trip.And to do this, he must gain Yang Xuan's favor.
Before the fate of a servant, a petty official is not even an ant.
"Come on!"
Two sergeants come in.
The official pointed at the little official, "This man is corrupt, and he cooperates with the rebels internally and externally. Take him away!"
Let's say less about wearing tattoos on the face and sending them somewhere.
Yang Xuan nodded, "It's hard work."
The official laughed flatteringly, "It's not hard, your envoy, a banquet has been prepared ahead, please."
The three women stared blankly at them going out.
A man rushed in, but it was the elder brother of one of them.
"Brother!"
The woman wept and talked about her experience, "Thanks to that noble envoy for helping, otherwise our family would be in trouble."
Her elder brother just went up to the top of the city to help guard, he was startled when he heard the words, "You mean your envoy?"
"Hmm! Brother, what's the matter?"
"That's the envoy of the Tang Dynasty!" Her elder brother said excitedly: "You didn't see it earlier, the envoy's command is determined. If it weren't for him, Yecheng would definitely not be able to keep today. Hey! It really is a famous general of the Tang Dynasty!"
Seeing his younger sister in a daze, he asked, "My sister, my younger sister..."
The woman stomped her feet, "It's him? I knew I wouldn't come out even if I died."
When he woke up, Yang Xuan was a little confused by the unfamiliar place.
Gradually, yesterday's events were recalled one by one.
"My lord, it's time for breakfast."
Wang Er Er was shouting outside.
I got up and moved my body, feeling full of energy.
Yang Xuan frowned, "Why do you feel like overflowing?"
Qin Jian and Cheng Ran sat there a little tiredly. After seeing Yang Xuan, they tried their best to get up and salute, and then sat down, grinning.
"I'm sore all over." Qin Jian smiled wryly. "The old man used to hunt in the mountains. He stayed up for three days and three days just to hunt down a wild wolf. He was still full of energy after returning. Hey! Old man!"
Yang Xuan sat down, someone brought breakfast.
Rice, add a few dishes, but also hearty.
Wang Laoer was sitting with the old criminal, and the old criminal came over, "Your Majesty, can you trust Qin Jian's words?"
Yang Xuan shook his head, "In the mountains, people can't run away from wolves. Don't mention three days and three nights, they will be lost in the blink of an eye."
After breakfast, Yang Xuan found a small official.
"Do you know about that old prisoner?"
The little official said: "This man is called Tu Chang, killing officials."
Hey!
This is the first thought that popped into Yang Xuan's mind that Xia Yiwu violated the ban.
"Why kill the officer?"
"I don't know, it seems that the whole family is dead."
Yang Xuan was even more confused by what he said without beginning or end.
The little official watched his words and expressions, "The villain dare not hide anything, it's just that he really doesn't know anything about this person."
"How many years have you been imprisoned?"
"Five years."
"Not executed?"
However, all criminals who killed officials, whether they were in the Tang Dynasty or the Southern Zhou Dynasty, were dealt with strictly and quickly.All officials have the same attitude on this point, Yang Xuan felt that it was the sad mood of the rabbit dead and the fox at work.
"It was supposed to be executed, but it just so happened that the queen gave birth to a prince, and His Majesty pardoned the world when he was happy, and Tu Chang was saved from death."
"It's good luck."
The little official chuckled, "It's good luck, but this person has suffered a lot in prison."
"But he didn't resist?"
Yang Xuan felt that with Tushang's force value, if he wanted to resist, the prison in Yecheng would not be able to trap him.
The little official said indifferently: "The hearts of the people are like iron, and the law of the government is like a furnace. No matter how powerful a person is in prison, we will naturally have a way to catch him. Even if he can escape, the army will surround him, and the arrows will rain down. A high level of cultivation won't help in the end."
"Manpower is sometimes poor."
"Your envoy has a high opinion."
"You are articulate."
"This is the skill of a villain to look after the house."
"Then what do you think of Ye Cheng?"
"Yecheng... General Zhang is a good man. There are good and bad officials in the city, but there are still many good people."
"What about Southern Zhou?"
"The Southern Zhou Dynasty is prosperous, but there are also dark places. But if you want to come to Tang Dynasty, you can't avoid it."
"Do you know why?"
Yang Xuan wanted to use the mouth of the little official to inquire about the national conditions of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
"If you are human, you will be greedy. Greedy people like to bully the weak and fear the strong. The superiors oppress the subordinates, and the subordinates oppress the subordinates. In the end, it is the common people who oppress. This is how people are. It is not bounded by the Southern Zhou Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty."
The petty official looked at Yang Xuan, with a sense of exploration in his humbleness, "What the villain said is not leaking secrets. If your envoy still has doubts, you can ask Zhang Shilang and the others."
"Talent."
"Your envoy has won the prize."
"Why didn't you get promoted?"
"The lie is that there are as many people like villains in Nan Zhou as stars."
"What about the truth?"
"The truth is that there is no one behind the villain, and he doesn't like to flatter him."
The little official looked at Yang Xuan again, "I firmly believe that the same is true for the Tang Dynasty."
Yang Xuan was a little embarrassed by these words, "Why don't you flatter and cling?"
The petty official smiled, "The villain thinks it would be awkward to live like that. The villain is even more afraid that after going there, he will have to live in the same way as those people. There are many ways to live in this world, and the villain thinks that being rich is only secondary. The most important thing is that I want to live comfortably and comfortably... The villain feels very comfortable and comfortable now."
The little official was in his thirties, with a humble look on his face, but his eyes were calm.
There are leftovers in the wild!
Yang Xuan sent people to look for the kings and prepare to return to Bianjing.
The purpose of Yang Lue's venture into Bianjing was definitely not to plunder, but to see him more often.In this way, the situation in Nanzhou is almost the same, and it is time to go back.
The kings lay down.
"The doctor said that Wang Shilang's foot was injured during the fight and he needs to rest for a few days."
Injured foot?
The old thief thought about it carefully, "He just stabbed a soldier that day, and even stabbed a sergeant in the butthole, how did he hurt his foot?"
"Maybe I stepped on something!"
But that night the kings of the night had a fever.
"I'm afraid I won't make it through."
Yang Xuan also took a look, and it really was feverish.
"Something dangerous."
On the third day, a group of officials with stern faces came from Bianjing on a fast horse.
"Where is Wang Shilang?"
Wang Zhong lay on the bed, a little confused from the fever.
"The minister deserves to die for his crimes!" The kings pleaded guilty in a daze.
"It's all the minister's fault and has nothing to do with anyone else."
Immediately, someone came to find Yang Xuan and others.
"Wang Shilang? Not bad." The kings don't know how long they can live, and Yang Xuan is also willing to be a favor.
Immediately, Yuan Xiao was taken down.
The kings fell, and he was the biggest.
"Thank you, your envoy."
The visitor thanked Yang Xuan a lot.
Then everyone set off for Bianjing.
On the way, the kings gradually recovered.
"This person's life is really great."
Uda sighed.
Qin Jian squinted at Wang Zhong who insisted on getting out of the carriage and riding a horse, and limped when he walked.
"It is said that a toe was broken." The old thief went to inquire about the news.
"I remember now." Cheng Ran clenched his fists.
"What do you remember?"
"The old man was exhausted after the battle that day, standing below panting, he saw Wang Zhong jumping down from the steps, glanced at Yuan Xiao, took two steps to see nothing happened, and then limped. "
Yang Xuan grimaced, "If his toes were injured, he would instinctively choose to walk down."
"He walked steadily during those two steps." Cheng Ran gritted his teeth.
Wang Lao Er asked, "What's the matter?"
The old thief said: "We were all deceived by the kings, and the gentleman even said good things for him!"
Wang Lao Er was puzzled, "But he is really missing a toe! How is it missing?"
"He chopped it off himself!"
(End of this chapter)
The first time he came to Chang'an, Yang Xuan felt that this was heaven.
Paradise is prosperous, but there are also strict levels in heaven, and the jungle is also preyed upon by the jungle.
It's just that Yang's vassal family made him and Zhao Sanfu so embarrassed that they were almost killed.
This let Yang Xuan know that it turns out that things in this world cannot be done according to one's own temperament.
The breath of the second class gradually subsided, and he looked at the world with more complicated eyes.
He saw wealth and poverty.
He saw strength, but also weakness.
The powerful oppresses the weak, like the way of heaven.
Only then did he understand that the human world and the mountains are the same, tigers eat sheep, sheep eat grass; big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimps...
Strengthening oneself has become a most urgent goal.
He worked hard to lay the groundwork in Taiping, tried every means to gain fame for himself in Chenzhou, and wooed everyone he could.
All of this is not only due to the great cause of rebellion, but also stems from the insecurity in his bones.
Those years in Chang'an were his first teachers when he entered the world of flowers.
You have to be strong!
The strength of the old thief is not weak, but after all, his age is here, and it is difficult to make progress.
Yang Lue is so powerful that even Yang Xuan doesn't know his background, but he can't stay by his side.
Wang Laoer's progress is gratifying. If he met Wahai back then, Yang Xuan felt that the two should be evenly matched.
Ke Wahai is just a master of the Vasie Department, and when looking at the world, it is not mentioned.
The great cause of rebellion will continue to deepen, and the opponents encountered in the future will become more and more difficult. How to keep his own life has become a difficult problem for Yang Xuan and the small group.
Anyone can die, but Yang Xuan can't.
If he went, Yang Lue and others' half-life hard work and efforts would be in vain.

To say the least, it must be an old man at this level. He doesn't worry about being assassinated at all when he goes out, let alone being beheaded by his opponent when he rushes.
After searching and searching but not being able to find the footsteps of an expert, Yang Xuan gradually gave up, thinking that when his wings were full, he would bring Yang Lue back from the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, he found an expert in a small town in the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
But the expert obviously had no interest in him, and after getting up, he just followed Wang's second child.
Yang Xuan smiled and said in a low voice: "It's already here, I don't believe I can't take you down!"

"Little Xuanzi, this is the protagonist template!" Suzaku said happily.

Yang Xuan thought of a novel with a dull protagonist, isn't it like this?
Fortune favors fools!
Foolish people bully the sky does not bully!
A group of people went down to the top of the city, and someone arranged a place, and even arranged for a bath with fragrant soup.
"Shu Tan!"
Yang Xuan entered the bathroom, not knowing what was put in the water, he sniffed and relaxed.
"Who?"
Two petite women are blessed, "The slave is ordered to serve the nobleman."
"Get out!"
"I dare not!"
"Will be killed."
Whose idea is this?
And so fierce, why?
He thought of Wang Zhong, did he want to curry favor with me?
Yang Xuan frowned, "Then wait outside."
"Yes!"
The two women didn't know whether they were resentful or feeling lucky, they muttered after going out.
"This man looks so young."
"Ok!"
"Serving him is worse than serving a real nobleman."
"It is said that there is a servant and a doctor."
"That's right! The thieves attacked the city very powerfully, and the servant fought bravely, and then he killed the thieves and ran away."

Am I not human?The clerk looked up.

Yang Xuan pointed at the little official, "This person speaks very well."
The officer came over.
The little official was stunned, "The villain didn't..."

However, all criminals who killed officials, whether they were in the Tang Dynasty or the Southern Zhou Dynasty, were dealt with strictly and quickly.All officials have the same attitude on this point, Yang Xuan felt that it was the sad mood of the rabbit dead and the fox at work.
"It was supposed to be executed, but it just so happened that the queen gave birth to a prince, and His Majesty pardoned the world when he was happy, and Tu Chang was saved from death."
"It's good luck."
The little official chuckled, "It's good luck, but this person has suffered a lot in prison."
"But he didn't resist?"
Yang Xuan felt that with Tushang's force value, if he wanted to resist, the prison in Yecheng would not be able to trap him.
The little official said indifferently: "The hearts of the people are like iron, and the law of the government is like a furnace. No matter how powerful a person is in prison, we will naturally have a way to catch him. Even if he can escape, the army will surround him, and the arrows will rain down. A high level of cultivation won't help in the end."
"Manpower is sometimes poor."
"Your envoy has a high opinion."
"You are articulate."
"This is the skill of a villain to look after the house."
"Then what do you think of Ye Cheng?"
"Yecheng... General Zhang is a good man. There are good and bad officials in the city, but there are still many good people."
"What about Southern Zhou?"
"The Southern Zhou Dynasty is prosperous, but there are also dark places. But if you want to come to Tang Dynasty, you can't avoid it."
"Do you know why?"
Yang Xuan wanted to use the mouth of the little official to inquire about the national conditions of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
"If you are human, you will be greedy. Greedy people like to bully the weak and fear the strong. The superiors oppress the subordinates, and the subordinates oppress the subordinates. In the end, it is the common people who oppress. This is how people are. It is not bounded by the Southern Zhou Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty."
The petty official looked at Yang Xuan, with a sense of exploration in his humbleness, "What the villain said is not leaking secrets. If your envoy still has doubts, you can ask Zhang Shilang and the others."
"Talent."
"Your envoy has won the prize."
"Why didn't you get promoted?"
"The lie is that there are as many people like villains in Nan Zhou as stars."
"What about the truth?"
"The truth is that there is no one behind the villain, and he doesn't like to flatter him."
The little official looked at Yang Xuan again, "I firmly believe that the same is true for the Tang Dynasty."

The villain feels very comfortable and comfortable now."
The little official was in his thirties, with a humble look on his face, but his eyes were calm.
There are leftovers in the wild!
Yang Xuan sent people to look for the kings and prepare to return to Bianjing.
The purpose of Yang Lue's venture into Bianjing was definitely not to plunder, but to see him more often.In this way, the situation in Nanzhou is almost the same, and it is time to go back.
The kings lay down.
"The doctor said that Wang Shilang's foot was injured during the fight and he needs to rest for a few days."
Injured foot?
The old thief thought about it carefully, "He just stabbed a soldier that day, and even stabbed a sergeant in the butthole, how did he hurt his foot?"
"Maybe I stepped on something!"
But that night the kings of the night had a fever.
"I'm afraid I won't make it through."
Yang Xuan also took a look, and it really was feverish.
"Something dangerous."
On the third day, a group of officials with stern faces came from Bianjing on a fast horse.
"Where is Wang Shilang?"
Wang Zhong lay on the bed, a little confused from the fever.
"The minister deserves to die for his crimes!" The kings pleaded guilty in a daze.
"It's all the minister's fault and has nothing to do with anyone else."
Immediately, someone came to find Yang Xuan and others.
"Wang Shilang? Not bad." The kings don't know how long they can live, and Yang Xuan is also willing to be a favor.
Immediately, Yuan Xiao was taken down.
The kings fell, and he was the biggest.
"Thank you, your envoy."
The visitor thanked Yang Xuan a lot.
Then everyone set off for Bianjing.
On the way, the kings gradually recovered.
"This person's life is really great."
Uda sighed.
Qin Jian squinted at Wang Zhong who insisted on getting out of the carriage and riding a horse, and limped when he walked.
"It is said that a toe was broken." The old thief went to inquire about the news.
"I remember now." Cheng Ran clenched his fists.
"What do you remember?"
"The old man was exhausted after the battle that day, standing below panting, he saw Wang Zhong jumping down from the steps, glanced at Yuan Xiao, took two steps to see nothing happened, and then limped. "
Yang Xuan grimaced, "If his toes were injured, he would instinctively choose to walk down."
"He walked steadily during those two steps." Cheng Ran gritted his teeth.
Wang Lao Er asked, "What's the matter?"
The old thief said: "We were all deceived by the kings, and the gentleman even said good things for him!"
Wang Lao Er was puzzled, "But he is really missing a toe! How is it missing?"
"He chopped it off himself!"
