Prison Dragon

Chapter 119

After everyone left, Ao Chen sat on the table facing Yang You, looked down at him and said, "Do you really want to save people?"

Yang You shrugged, "I begged them all, and even got involved with Liao Xiang because of this matter."

He looked at his fingertips and said slowly, "I can't bear it."

Ao Chen shook his head and stroked his hair with a smile, "A good guy."

"It's all a family." Yang You took his hand off and pressed it to his face, the cold temperature made him gradually relax, "Father also did a great job back then."

"Let's not talk about that," he took a deep breath, and changed the subject, "Wu Yizhi was taken to my house by me."

"I saw it." Ao Chen said, "How long do you plan to let him live?"

"I hope he will live forever, at least not to go back to the palace," Yang You said with a smile, "He said that the things you want are in the underground secret room of the Xuanzheng Palace. It is said that only the emperor can enter."

"Emperor..." Ao Chen murmured, "It's really possible that the royal family is protected by heavenly secrets, and there may be some places that only special people can go to."

Yang You frowned, "Xuanzheng Hall is not an ordinary palace, and the prince must avoid suspicion. I can't go there openly, you may have to wait."

Ao Chen was puzzled, "Why do you have to go in openly? Can't I take you in? We can go in now."

He stood up and took Yang You's hand, "Go now, let's go?"

Yang You suddenly realized that he always judged Yang You with human thoughts, but he didn't realize that many troubles in front of people were not a problem for Yu Aochen at all.

"I still have to go to Brother Zhuo's house for dinner later." Yang You sat on the spot and refused, "Go at night, it's easy to do things in the dead of night."

Ao Chen nodded.

Yang You told Ao Chen the story he heard from Lu Shanjian.

Ao Chen chanted Yang Yan's name, which seemed a little familiar, but no matter what, he couldn't remember the story behind this name, "I can't remember."

Yang You tried to help him retrieve some memories, "What about Gaozu? How much can you remember?"

Yang You guessed that Gao Zu should have a high proportion in Ao Chen's memory, after all, he was the one who made a pact with him to protect the country.

Ao Chen rubbed his temples, he wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, his memory was blank, only a vague old figure standing alone.

What I thought was such an unforgettable memory, after all, is just a piece of dust on the wall, which will naturally become mottled after a long time, and then fall off at a certain moment of turning around, shattered into powder, and then dissipated.

In fact, it should have been sealed in my heart, but for some reason it was forgotten.

"It seems that I have almost forgotten it." Ao Chen said.

Compared to this, he was more concerned about why he began to forget the past.

Many, many, not only the past 800 years ago, but also the past of his life in the sky and in the sea, have gradually faded and become blurred.

He remembered fewer and fewer things, and the farther away, the less clear, but everything from meeting Yang You left a deep impression on him.

Ao Chen looked at the top of Yang You's head. Pale golden threads floated from all directions and converged on his head. The silk mesh was more complicated than ten years ago, and the gathered golden gas was also stronger.

That was Yang You's luck, and his entanglement with everyone in the world was getting deeper and deeper.

Ao Chen thought that he might have guessed the reason for his change.

Everything was almost the same as he expected, but he still had a little bit of regret.

After a while, Ruifang knocked on the door and said that Zhuo Xinhong invited them to drink.

Yang You shook Ao Chen's finger, "Am I going?"

"Go." Ao Chen did not forget to put forward his request, "If you have good wine, remember to bring it back."

Yang You changed into plain clothes and quietly went to Zhuo's mansion.

He hadn't been to Zhuo Xinhong's courtyard before, so it was a bit of a novelty for a while, no matter how Mr. Zhuo is also an individual with elegance, his residence should be much more elegant and beautiful than others.

To Yang You's disappointment, the Zhuo Mansion is just an ordinary courtyard, not even as elegant as the Wang Mansion.The most different thing is that there are two children and a wife in this family, which has a more warm atmosphere.

Zhuo Xinhong dragged him into the dining room, everyone in Taichang Temple was present, Zhuo Xinhong was a civil servant after all, so he didn't invite generals.

Anyway, the generals are under the supervision of Yang You, and the civil servants still have to take the lead in matters such as court struggles.

Yang You saluted one by one.

Everyone was a little excited. This was Yang You's first small gathering after returning to Beijing. If there were no accidents, they would be Yang You's core team after he became emperor, and they would all write their own chapters in the history.

Learn literary and martial arts, buy from the emperor's family, and everything they want will come true.

Looking at the excited eyes of the crowd, Yang You suppressed his emotional fluctuations and bowed to Shangluo first: "You have been protected and guided by the teacher for many years, and today is the only way. The kindness of the teacher is unforgettable."

Shang Luo helped him up, and said with a gratified smile, "My lord is today because of my own strength. I am old enough to meet my lord, and that is the greatest luck in my life!"

The two expressed their feelings. Shangluo suffered from a cold two years ago, and his body was not as good as before. Everyone avoided him after drinking and drinking.

Chu Ge led the two children to greet him. The two boys were eight years old and seven years old.

Yang You didn't start to talk about the serious business until the parents finished their short talk.

Zhuo Xinhong first said: "Brother Jiang sent a letter saying that His Majesty's edict to abolish the Wu family has arrived in Yizhou, and the Jiedu Envoy is also on his way back to the southwest."

Yang You nodded, "Once the Wu family falls, I will recommend brother Jiang to the emperor to be the prefect of Shu County. We only have an acre of three-thirds of the land, and we have to guard it by our own people."

Xu Kaiji stood up and saluted: "At present, it seems that the Southwest is under the control of the prince, and there are not many incidents. The most important thing is that the current situation in the court has changed..."

Ten years ago, Xu Kaiji was like his elder brother, he would not salute respectfully and restrainedly like now, Yang You felt a little annoyed, so he held back and said nothing.

Yang You stated his plan directly, "Your Majesty hopes that Yang Ren and I will stay at loggerheads until the day he feels it is necessary to decide the winner. If this drags on, I don't know how many changes there will be." Why don't you take advantage of this period of time, and attack as soon as possible, as there is still a rift between the father and the general begging for captives."

"You want to overthrow them now?" Shang Luo said.

"It doesn't have to be targeted at Brother Huang," Yang You analyzed, "Brother Huang has lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain for the past few years, and has gained a lot of good reputation. I'm afraid Father is not as afraid of him as before. If you want to find him, you can find Di Fei." Trouble, as long as you go to the military power, everything will be easy to talk about."

Xu Kaiji is still worried, "I'm afraid that once the general's military power is removed, the prince's military power will also have to be handed over."

"Then hand it over, I'm not afraid." Yang You is very confident about this point. He has been in the Southwest for ten years, and the most important thing he has done is to curb the power of the family, but to replace the army from top to bottom. own people.

He said in the court hall that the soldiers belonged to the emperor, and that was also based on the premise that Yang You and the emperor did not conflict.

He also knows that raising private soldiers is a serious problem, but Liu Wu and the major families in Sichuan are peeping at him before, and he is worried about seizing his heirs later, so he can only go this way.

Seeing that he wasn't worried at all, Xu Kaiji knew that Yang You had some calculations in his mind, so he turned to think about other issues: "General Qiulu said before that he was ill and was left in the capital to recuperate by His Majesty. If you want to hurry up, the only time is now." The safest thing is that there are many people in the capital, no more than his residence, so it is easy to find his flaws."

Shang Luo stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Di Fei...are old friends, and his heroic demeanor in defeating the Turks is still vivid in my memory! He is a man with excellent skills, but his character is indeed a bit bad, and he can be picked up at will. His various crimes. Your Majesty may not really be unaware, but he doesn't want to pursue him, if you really want to bring him down, you have to find the thorn that pierces His Majesty's heart the most."

"Forming a party, plotting a rebellion..." Yang You said, "He wants to do something, or we force him to do it."

Xu Kaiji took a breath, "Your Highness has really made up his mind?"

Yang You said in a low voice: "I have made a resolution for ten years, and I will not repent at this moment. Recently, my father and all the princes have been watching very closely. Let's not communicate with each other publicly, and be quieter. Father It won't do anything to me for the time being, we still have time to find Di Fei's lies."

Yang You talked with the ministers late into the night, finalized all the plans, and then walked back to the palace through the side door.

There was no light in Yang You's room, and Ao Chen was sitting on his bed alone, with a suit of clothes by his hand.

Seeing him coming back, Ao Chen patted his clothes, "I've turned all the clothes out for you, and I'll go to the Xuanzheng Hall when I'm done."

Yang You picked up the clothes and took a look. Ao Chen deliberately picked out a black martial robe, which was neat and neat. It was made by Chu Ge for Yang You, and he only wore it when he was marching and fighting.

Thinking that they were about to sneak into the center of the whole country, the Xuanzheng Hall where the court meeting was located, Yang You felt a little irritated, it was really like marching and fighting.

After he changed his clothes, Ao Chen stood up and hugged him from behind, looking at the two figures in the mirror.

The moonlight was dim, so they could only see two shadows overlapping each other.

"Let's go." Ao Chen said indifferently.

Yang You's eyes were hazy for a while, and when he opened his eyes again, the two of them arrived at a small corner of the Xuanzheng Hall.

There was no one in the Xuanzheng Hall, only a few eunuchs on duty outside.

The silvery moonlight was split into various patterns by the windows, so that the hall would not fall into complete darkness. According to what Wu Yizhi said, Yang You found the sixth dragon-carved pillar on the right hand side, and stroked the gilt-carved pattern with his fingers. .

Normally, no one would pay attention to these pillars. If Wu Yizhi hadn't said it, how could he have guessed that there was a secret room under the Xuanzheng Hall?

He counted from bottom to top and touched the ninth flying dragon. He took out a torch from his pocket and blew twice. The golden dragon's eyes were blank.

Eyes are the aura of all things in the world. There is even such a legend in the world that no matter whether it is a carved dragon or a painted dragon, you cannot touch the eyes, otherwise the dragon will come to life.

Yang You looked at his index finger, and asked Ao Chen in a low voice: "Wu Yizhi only said that the blood of the father can open the door, but I don't know if my blood will work."

Ao Chen also reached out and touched the pillar, "A Taoist priest has set a forbidden spell on it, and only the descendants of the Yang family can open it."

Yang You nodded, and bit his index finger cruelly, forcing out a little blood and smearing it in Jinlong's blank eyes.
