Chang Anqing

Chapter 259 Dawn Night
In the blink of an eye, it was the night before the military parade in the outskirts of Beijing. This night, the moonlight was like water, and it looked extraordinarily peaceful and quiet. A gentle breeze blew by, rolling up the silk lamps under the porch and shaking, and the shadows of the candle flames scattered all over the place.

"Ma'am, this—"

Looking at the astonished and slightly complicated eyes of the man in black in front of him, Li Shi sat there solemnly as usual, obviously never angry, but the moment he raised his eyes to look over, he was carrying a feeling that a man would not dare to look at. The courage to look at him.

He knew it was a warning.

"Why, are you unwilling or not?"

Faced with such pressure, the man was respectful, even lowered his head cautiously, and said: "Madam, this subordinate is just worried, worried that the sword has no eyes, and accidentally injured the Taiwei—"

Hearing the man's words, there was no emotion in Li's eyes, but he raised his eyes indifferently and said: "You should be clear, this is an order, not a discussion."

After all, Li Shi looked down at the humanity in front of him like a superior, "Since you are Yang Chongyuan's personal hidden guard, you should know what the fate of betraying him is, and you should know more. My Li family secretly sent you to the Yang family, and you have been by Yang Chongyuan's side for so many years, it shouldn't be raising a useless person who can't do anything."

Hearing this sentence, the man's lips parted and he dared not refute anything.

Indeed, the Taiwei was suspicious, so the Li family carefully cultivated him and sent him to the Taiwei's Mansion these years, but never contacted him, and never let him act.

And all of this is for tomorrow, a battle that will see the outcome tomorrow.

Once his identity is exposed, no matter how angry the Taiwei is, he will not and cannot do anything to the Li family, but he, a dispensable chess piece, will only die without a place to bury him.

What's more, Mrs. Li is still raising his only relative——

In the silence, the man clenched his fists with determination, and said reverently and obediently: "This subordinate takes orders."

"very good."

Looking at the people under his feet, Li reminded: "I want you to do your best. After the work is done, those people don't have to stay anymore."

Speaking of this, Li Shi said indifferently: "All the money and silk rewards for them have been placed in places you know. They are enough for their families to be rich and noble for a lifetime. It should be enough to exchange their lives for the prosperity of the family."

After the words fell, Li Shi squinted at the man with a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

"So, keep an eye on it, and don't leave a single one alive, or I'll only ask you."

After speaking, looking at the humble figure in front of her, Li didn't stay any longer, she got up, let Yinniang put on a black cloak for her, and walked out step by step.

When we got to the corridor, looking at the breeze and bright moon in the yard of the folk house in front of us, there was a change in Li's eyes at some point.

After enduring it for so long, the scabies and heart disease should be cured.

"lady."

Hearing Yinniang's careful reminder beside her, Li Shi silently withdrew her gaze and said, "Go home."

Because Yang Chongyuan would go to the suburbs of Beijing for a military parade tomorrow, Yang Jin, who discussed everything with Yang Chongyuan, left the study room until nightfall.When he was walking along the road towards his own yard, he suddenly felt a scent that was so faint that it was almost an illusion, which made him stunned there and stopped.

"Da Lang?"

Hearing the voice of the servant beside him, Yang Jin looked at the blooming Sophora japonica not far away, thought for a long time, and finally said: "Go and see Aniang."

For a moment, the servant was quite surprised, but in the next moment he rushed up and followed Yang Jin's footsteps to Cao's yard.

Hearing the announcement from the maid outside the house, Cao Shi still couldn't believe it, but when she saw the tall and tall figure of Geng Jie with her own eyes, she was so excited that she burst into tears.

The night after Zi Chenghuan's death, it seemed that the son who was filial and obedient to her had also left together.

He no longer came to say hello, talk to her, and make her happy as if he woke up in the morning and evening. Whenever the mother and son get along, there is always endless silence, which makes her frightened.

She knew that he was blaming her, blaming her for cheating him, blaming her for killing Cheng Huan——

"Just now when I was walking on the road, I smelled the scent of Sophora japonica, and I thought of the Sophora japonica cake here——"

Hearing that the son finally stopped talking to her in a cold and routine manner, Mrs. Cao was happy and even excited: "Okay, I'll let someone do it, no, no, I'll go, I'll do it for you."

The moment Cao passed by, he felt his hand being held, and when he looked back, he finally saw Yang Jin's brows showing some of the old look.

"Let them do it, my son will talk to Aunt."

Hearing that her son was still willing to talk to her, Cao quickly agreed, and waited for the maid to go down, holding her hand tightly, as if she was afraid that he would leave.

Yang Jin's heart was touched, and he said slowly: "Once upon a time——"

"It's A Niang's fault, it's A Niang's fault—"

Before Yang Jin could finish speaking, Mrs. Cao had already shed tears, tightly grasped Yang Jin's hand and said, "It's Aunt who shouldn't have lied to you, shouldn't have made a claim, it's Aniang who harmed you, it's all about you." A Niang harmed you, A Niang has already punished that Wen Niang and kicked her out, A Niang will never do that again, and never let her provoke you and me—"

Hearing this mournful and remorseful cry, looking at the mother who has always been glamorous and focused on her manners, she lowered her head and cried helplessly and fearfully, her eyes and eyebrows were not in the shadows, and she was endlessly desolate.

Yang Jin sighed softly, and embraced this frail figure with both hands, just like when he was a child, his mother always embraced him and protected him.

"It's over, everything is over, Auntie."

Feeling the person in his arms crying bitterly against his chest, Yang Jin gently soothed her back.

At this moment, A Niang doesn't know that tomorrow's Aye, tomorrow's Yang family will enter a battlefield with no ending.

And he must stay by Aye's side and guard him.

Looking at Cao Shi in his arms, he knew that although Cao Shi was greedy for power and status, he was timid and liked to play tricks.

So not many people know about tomorrow's incident, and Aye will not let her know.

It's good not to know, so A Niang doesn't have to worry about him.

I hope that the Yang family will not collapse tomorrow, and I hope that after tomorrow, the Yang family can be reborn in flames.

"Tomorrow, when you come back with the Taiwei to the suburbs of Beijing, Auntie will personally cook for you and make Sophora japonica cakes for you."

Hearing Cao's words, Yang Jin finally let go of the exhaustion and toil of these days, and said with a smile: "Okay."

"By the way, you are not young anymore. As you know, Chao Su, the governor of Xinzhou, is the newest member of your Taiwei. He has followed the Taiwei for half his life and won many battles. He has a daughter under his knees, and he is called Mei Niang. Yes, I am eighteen this year, and you are—"

"Auntie—"

The conversation was interrupted in the middle, when Cao raised her head, she saw a trace of sentimentality between Yang Jin's brows and eyes. She didn't get angry, but said calmly and helplessly: "Now it's a national funeral, and my sister just passed away. Madam Wei is not happy."

Upon hearing Mrs. Li, Mrs. Cao couldn't help but froze, and her eyes rolled around uneasily.

Seeing Cao's appearance like this, Yang Jin knew that from the moment Aye asked Erlang to be his son and inherit the family business, she became more and more afraid of Li, and she had more and more scheming ideas in her heart.

"Aniang, don't worry, my son will do everything in his life to protect you, just like protecting Aye—"

While speaking, Yang Jin comforted Cao Shi's back, and said in Cao Shi's ear as he did when he was a child: "In the future, my son will earn a majestic prince with his military achievements and come back. I will take you to a beautiful place and have fun." place, with you for the rest of your life."

Hearing Yang Jin's words, Mrs. Cao in her arms finally smiled. After letting go of her arms, she looked at her increasingly mature, mighty and handsome son and said, "Aniang said that King Yuling is the God of War, and my son will surpass him and become the God of War." The unique God of War in the Great Zhou."

Looking at the smiling and tearful eyes looking at him in front of him, Yang Jin felt that all the past seemed to be gone like smoke.
