Who was the angriest about Yan Lin's scheme?
Of course it wasn't Jiang Pengji. It was Yang Si, who had been "stepped on" and used by Yan Lin.
"Why are you so angry? Look at you. The waxes that the servants spent so much effort on are all gone now. " Feng Zhen smiled as he fanned himself with his golden fan. Recently, he had been in high spirits because of the happy occasion. Everyone he saw was pleasing to the eye, even Yang Si. "He was just used by someone. You've tortured Yan Lin enough. Can't you let him retaliate once in a while? You're so petty! "
Yang Si stopped pacing and glared at him. "It's not that simple. Does Yan Lin think I'm a three-year-old?"
Even though it was an impromptu plan, Yan Lin's plan was flawless. Yang Si couldn't ignore the bigger picture even if he had doubts.
A few days later, the situation became clear. Yang Si's suspicions were confirmed. He had indeed been set up.
Who was the one who set him up?
He didn't even have to think to know the person's name.
Yan Lin had set up this trap. Yang Tao and Yan Lin were the ones who benefited in the end, but Yang Si was the one who suffered.
Why did he say that?
It was because Yang Si had sent messengers to deliver the news that Yang Tao was suspected of mutiny. As the lord, Jiang Pengji made the wrong judgment and misunderstood Yang Tao. Even though she sent messengers to correct the news two days later, the lord already knew what she needed to know.
Normally, she would only think that Yang Si was incompetent. She wouldn't be angry at Yan Lin's ingenious plan.
Yang Si had no choice but to swallow the loss. Even though it wasn't Yan Lin's main purpose, he had indeed been caught in the crossfire.
If he had been a petty person, he would have hated Yan Lin for the rest of his life.
"You don't have to be so angry. Let's wait and see how the lord reacts." Feng Zhen was happy to watch the drama unfold. Yang Si had been the one watching Yan Lin set him up. Now that the tables had turned, it was finally Feng Zhen's turn to watch Yang Si get set up. He was delighted. "You've followed her for ten years. You know what kind of person she is. She might have seen through Yan Lin's plan. Don't worry. "
It would have been better if Feng Zhen hadn't said anything. Now that he said it, Yang Si felt even more annoyed.
He was a member of the Lord's brain trust. He had been tricked by Yan Lin, but the Lord had seen through his plan. What did this mean?
This meant that his advantage as a strategist was not as good as his lord's. Then, what use did his lord have for him?
Yang Si said angrily, "I don't hate Yan Shaoyang anymore. No matter how I think about it, Feng Zishi's mouth is still the most detestable."
Feng Zhen closed his gold-sprinkled fan, spread his arms, and shrugged his shoulders. He looked like he was saying, "What can you do to me?"
Yang Si: "…"
No, his stomach hurts.
When he thought about how he still had to work with Feng Zhen and Yan Lin for decades to come, he felt like he had nothing left to live for.
Yang Sisheng was not the only one who felt hopeless. The Nansheng soldiers who led the attack were also so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood. They secretly cursed Yan Lin more than once.
They had agreed to work together from the inside and outside, but in the end, the enemy came. The city gate was filled with archers who were ready for battle, and they were stunned in a single move.
They didn't know the inside story, but when they saw the situation, they knew it was a trap. Logically speaking, they should have retreated as soon as possible to ensure their safety, but they didn't.
This was all thanks to Yan Lin's ability to lie through his teeth.
He said that Yang Tao's tens of thousands of old subordinates had long been transferred away by the petty Yang Si. Now, there were only tens of thousands of old, weak, sick, and disabled people in the city. The terrain was easy to attack, but difficult to defend. The Nansheng soldiers were coaxed by Yan Lin, and they tried to attack.
The soldiers on the city wall were indeed veterans, but they worked well together. On the first day, they barely managed to defend the city.
On the second day, they managed to defend the city by a narrow margin. The Nansheng soldiers were furious when they saw this.
Just as they were about to retreat, Yan Lin sent another message. He said that he had received a secret report that a batch of provisions would arrive at midnight, and that the city was only a transit station. The Nansheng soldiers didn't believe him, but that night, they received news that many covered ships carrying provisions were entering the city by water.
Qian Su didn't know that Yan Lin was so good at lying. The Nansheng soldiers knew that it was a trap, but they still jumped into it.
At first, it was Yan Lin who coaxed them, but later, he was really angry. He was determined to take down the city.
A few days before Jiang Pengji arrived with her troops, the self-directed drama finally came to an end.
The people who suffered the most were not Yang Si or Yan Lin, but the Nansheng soldiers who were kept in the dark. No matter how many people they brought over, they were all killed. Yang Si sent people to search for evidence, but he didn't expect Yan Lin to be so cautious that he didn't leave any evidence. Even if there were letters, they were destroyed.
Yang Si didn't have any witnesses or material evidence, so he couldn't accuse Yan Lin of plotting this farce.
"You're so calculative …"
Yang Si gritted his teeth and muttered. He was furious. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't beat Yan Lin, he would have taught him a lesson.
Was Yang Si someone who could be tricked by anyone?
Yan Lin stared at him with his pure and righteous eyes and asked, "Messenger Yang, can you explain why the soldiers who were watching us didn't come to help when the Nansheng soldiers were at the city gate? Did they not receive the news, or did someone instruct them to delay the time? "
Yang Si sucked in a breath of cold air and ground his molars rhythmically. Yan Lin was a black-hearted man. He was the one who suppressed the news, detained the spies, and misled the army supervisor. How could he have the cheek to accuse Yang Si of holding a grudge and delaying the reinforcements?
Not to mention Yang Si, even if Wei Ci were to be accused of this, Wei Ci would not be able to bear it.
Yan Lin hadn't fully pledged himself to the lord yet, and he was already making enemies?
Yang Si sneered and said, "You and I both know the inside story. Don't pretend to be innocent and pitiful!"
Yan Lin blinked innocently, as if he didn't understand Yang Si's hint.
When the two of them met, the atmosphere was like firecrackers. Yang Tao was confused.
When Yang Si walked over, Yang Tao asked his friend, "Shaoyang, didn't you have a good chat with Yang Jing Rong? Why are you …"
When Yang Tao decided to surrender, Yang Si was the messenger to deal with the situation. He also brought Yan Lin along.
He had always thought that Yan Lin and Yang Si were scholars who appreciated each other. He didn't expect that they would become enemies this time.
Yan Lin smiled and said, "It's just a small conflict. We can solve it by apologizing in person. Zhengze, don't worry."
"How can I not worry? I heard that Yang Si is very … "
Yang Tao swallowed the word back down his throat.
Everyone knew that Yang Si held a grudge!
Putting everything else aside, when Yang Si kicked the first lord, Prince Changshou, he almost caused him to bleed. He was a ruthless person.
Yan Lin said, "It doesn't matter. He can't touch me unless he has something that will kill me."
So what if he holds a grudge?
