Chapter 278

Chapter 278
Xiao Xia dressed neatly and prepared to go to the military camp.

At this time, Achu handed him a post and said, "This was just sent by someone."

Xiao Xia opened the post and his brows immediately furrowed.

"In the summer, the lake breeze is very cool. I have prepared a pleasure boat, two cups of tea, and a few plates of snacks at the Qujiang Pier. I invite you to go on a cruise tomorrow morning!"

The signature is Yuan Lin.

This woman really invited me.

He thought for a moment and said to Ah Chu, "If someone comes to confirm whether I am going to go boating, tell him that I have to go out the day after tomorrow. I am very busy tomorrow and have no time!"

"Sir, I understand!"

Xiao Xia jumped on the horse and urged it to go.

Ah Chu opened the post, took a secret glance at it, and immediately covered his mouth and laughed, thinking that the young master was lucky in love.

There were few tea drinkers at Wenshan Restaurant in the morning. King Yang Liang of Han met with Gao Zhu, the vice-chairman of the National Protection Association, in the Plum Blossom Hall on the third floor.

Although Xiao Xia eliminated the Chang'an Baoguo Association, this loss could not hurt the Baoguo Association.

The Baoguo Association has been secretly implementing their plan to restore the country, and disrupting the Sui Dynasty is an important part of their plan.

They tried every means to sow internal strife within the royal family of the Sui Dynasty, especially the battle for the throne among the five dragons, which gave them a handle. Baoguo went to great lengths and finally hooked up with the King of Han.

King of Han Yang Liang knew that Chen Shubao's death was caused by the Baohui Society, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he admired the wisdom of the Baohui Society and successfully sowed hatred between the prince and Concubine Chen.

The assassination attempt on County Magistrate Zhao Chu was actually to silence him. Zhao Chu had been the county magistrate for ten thousand years and knew too much. Yang Liang did not want his father to find out that his private army actually had more than 6,000 people.

The assassination of Zhao Chu was done by Baoguo on his behalf, which was a token of their cooperation.

"Your Highness, we will organize a medium-sized uprising in the Weijun area, with about 20,000 people, and it will be very powerful. If Your Highness can seize the opportunity to obtain the military power to quell the rebellion, we will ensure that Your Highness can quell the rebellion for a long time and that the military power will not be lost. Once the emperor dies, Your Highness can lead the army into the court and seize the throne with strength."

Yang Liang said calmly: "How do you know that my father is dying?"

Gao Zhu smiled slightly and said, "We know a retired imperial physician. We learned some information from him. Everyone in the palace knows that the emperor will die within the next two years."

Yang Liang nodded, "So when do you plan to start the rebellion?"

"It's up to your Highness to decide. We will arrange it according to your Highness's needs!"

Yang Liang thought for a moment and said, "Then let's do it this autumn!"

"absolutely okay!"

"What are your conditions?"

Gao Zhu smiled and said, "Your Highness should know!"

Yang Liang said coldly: "If you want Liaodong, a medium-level rebellion is not enough, you must show sincerity!"

"Your Highness, if you want anything else, just ask. Money or troops are all fine!"

Yang Liang said slowly: "If I fail to obtain the military power to quell the rebellion, I hope you can provide me with another 10,000 troops, and I will be in full command of them!"

Gao Zhu nodded, "It's a deal then!"

After Gao Zhu left, Yang Liang was still pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

At this time, the subordinates reported at the door, "General Yuwen is here!"

Yang Liang nodded, "Please let him in!"

Soon, Yuwen Shu walked into the room quickly, bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Highness!"

Yang Liang asked calmly, "Is Yang Yan still with that woman?"

"That's right. He dotes on that woman and visits her every day."

Yang Liang laughed and said, "If you go looking for her every day, won't you get pregnant?"

Yuwen Shu also laughed, "Your Highness is right. The woman is already pregnant, about three months, and the doctor said it's probably a boy."

"Let her give birth to the child safely. I believe our father will love this grandson very much, the grandson born to him by a prostitute." Yang Liang and Yuwen Shu looked at each other and laughed together.

When Yuwen Shu returned home, he called his eldest son Yuwen Huaji and asked him, "Does Yang Yan know that the woman is pregnant?"

"Of course he knows. He is very proud of himself and says that his father is crazy about becoming a grandfather and he will give him a surprise after the baby is born."

Yuwen Shu thought for a moment and said, "We must protect that woman's child, so during this period of time, Yang Yan cannot go to that woman again. Too much sex will cause miscarriage. During this period of time, you should try to find Yang Yan to have fun. Go out with him every day and spend as much money as you want."

"I understand. I will go find him later."

Yuwen Shu then urged, "We need to find a way to have Yang Yan ask the imperial physician Wang Di to treat that woman and save her pregnancy. Wang Di will be the best witness in the future. Do you understand?"

Yu Wenzhi nodded. "I arranged the maid for that woman. I will have the maid persuade that woman. Once she asks for help, Yang Yan will go to find Wang Di. But I am worried that Wang Di will tell the prince."

Yuwen Shu stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, I've checked it out. Yang Yan has already found a fake identity for that woman. As long as Yun Shide doesn't say anything, no one will know about it, so it doesn't matter if the prince knows it!"

"If the truth comes out, will the crown prince be deposed?" Yu Wenzhi asked cautiously.

Yuwen Shu shook his head. "Not necessarily. After all, Yun Zhaoxun was a singing girl before. Didn't the emperor accept her when she gave birth to Yang Yan? But if this incident is coupled with other major events, the crown prince will be in danger."

"I understand, kid!"

In the afternoon, Xiao Xia returned home as usual. Xiao Qing bowed gracefully in the corridor of the inner house, and Xiao Xia's eyes lit up. She had a face as rosy as peach blossoms and eyes as bright as autumn waves. She wore a light yellow silk shirt on the upper body and a sky blue long skirt on the lower body, and she was graceful.

Xiao Xia finally understood why Yang Ling tried every possible means to get her. This woman was very charming, and she had an inherent inferiority complex. If her master was a little nice to her, she would be grateful from the bottom of her heart and want to work like a slave in return, devoting herself wholeheartedly. This self-pitying and inferior mentality made men always want to possess her and then protect her.

Xiao Xia had never longed for dark as much as he did today. Xiao Qing also understood his thoughts. Although she was shy, she was also full of anticipation in her heart.

Finally, when it was completely dark, Xiaoqing locked the door to the inner house. Xiaoxia rushed over and hugged her. The two young men and women, with their hearts surging with passion, hugged each other tightly and started to do whatever they wanted without caring about anything.

.........

The next morning, Yuan Lin and He Ruoqing, dressed to the nines, sat on a pleasure boat by the Qujiang Lake. They stared into the distance until their necks were sore, and they couldn't even see Xiao Xia's shadow.

The faces of the two men gradually became gloomy. Yuan Lin suddenly drew out a dagger and slashed at the table fiercely. The teacups and snacks on the table were instantly in a mess.

"How dare you play with my feelings, this bastard, sooner or later I will take care of him and crush him into powder!"

Yuan Lin's chest heaved violently, and anger flashed in his eyes. He Ruoqing also secretly hated him in her heart, and at the same time, she felt a little gloating, but she did not show it.

"Sister Yuan, when you become the queen, he will one day kneel down and beg you, and then you will chop off his head with a sword and feed him to wild dogs!"

"Yes, I swear, this day will come!"

At this moment, a frivolous laugh came from the shore, "Hey! Isn't this Yuan Xiaomei? Who are you angry with?"

Three men appeared on the shore. They were three of the four great young masters, Yang Yan, Yu Wenzhi, and Yun Shide.

Yuan Lin's eyes lit up. The emperor's eldest grandson had arrived. She was just thinking about how to be the queen and deal with that bastard. Now, the opportunity had come.

She immediately smiled, cast a pair of charming eyes at Yang Yan, puffed out her chest, and said delicately: "My little sister went boating alone, I didn't expect Master Yan to come!"

Yang Yan looked at the turbulent waves in front of him and couldn't help swallowing his saliva secretly. Although there would be endless troubles if he provoked the woman in front of him, especially since he had married Pei as his princess the year before last, he couldn't afford to provoke the daughter of the Yuan family. But Yang Yan was so horny at the moment that he didn't care about anything.

"It seems like it's God's will! Brother Yuwen, don't you think so?"

Although Yu Wenzhi was also a playboy, he was also married. He was better than Yang Yan and would never dare to mess with the daughter of the Yuan family. He laughed dryly and said, "It's a beautiful day for a boat trip. Why don't I call a few singing girls and dancers and arrange a big boat so that we can all have a good time boating together? Miss He Ruo, are you interested?"

Yu Wenzhi's reputation was too bad, He Ruoqing looked down on him, she turned her pretty eyes and saw another person who looked more honest, Yun Shide, she smiled sweetly and said: "I want to play with Sister Yuan!"

"Okay! You guys take your seats first, I'll go arrange another big boat!"

Yu Wenzhi had already made arrangements. The singing girls and dancers were all on another boat, so he hurried to make the arrangements.

Yuan Lin extended her hand to Yang Yan and said in a tender voice, "The boat is too shaky, Master Yan, help me get ashore first!"

Yang Yan was flattered and quickly took her little hand and carefully helped her ashore. However, Yuan Lin stretched out her little finger and scratched his palm, looking charming and laughing softly with her hand covering her mouth.

After these two teases, Yang Yan was immediately bewitched and his heart was completely captured by her.
