"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard! … "
At the same time, in another resplendent King Qi Residence, a furious roar accompanied by a pillar of golden clouds shot into the sky.
In an instant, lightning flashed in the sky above King Qi Residence. However, the golden lightning only lingered a hundred zhang above the King Qi Residence and it didn't affect anything else.
"Yao Guang Yi! You disappoint this king too much! — — "
In that instant, the fury and disappointment in King Qi's heart was indescribable. Before he set off, Yao Guang Yi had assured him that nothing would go wrong.
On account of Old Master Yao and Yao Guang Yi's past achievements, he suppressed the rage in his heart and turned a blind eye to the mistake in the Vast Crane Pavilion. He didn't expect Yao Guang Yi to give him such an explanation.
Not only did Yao Guang Yi fail to drive a wedge between the Song and Wang Clan, his farcical actions by the borders made him the laughing stock of the entire capital.
Yao Guang Yi was his subordinate and he had always viewed him as his right-hand man. Yao Guang Yi's failure was his own failure. Right now, those people in the royal court were laughing at him.
King Qi was a prideful person and he couldn't accept failure. How could he tolerate such humiliation?
"Where's Yao Guang Yi? Call Yao Guang Yi over! "
King Qi was furious. Everyone in the King Qi Residence, including the hundreds of people, kept quiet out of fear, not daring to utter a single word.
"Pass my token to Yao Guang Yi. I want to tear off his head! — — "
King Qi's furious voice echoed in the residence.
A moment later, a warhorse left the residence and galloped toward the borders.
Duke of Wei's Residence, Duke of Su's Residence, Duke of Lin's Residence, Duke of Zheng's Residence, Duke of Yao's Residence, King of Han's Residence, King of Chu's Residence, Prime Minister's Residence … The entire incident caused a huge reaction among the upper echelons and nobles of Tang Dynasty.
However, no one knew that at this moment, Yao Guang Yi's feelings were far more profound than anyone else's.
"Impossible! This is impossible … "
At the border, Yao Guang Yi sat on the back of a horse. On the way back, he passed through many forests. He was in a daze, as though he had lost his soul.
In the battle against the Hu, he was a complete and utter winner. He didn't suffer many losses and he managed to defeat the invading Baiyue Hu.
At the moment of their death, Yao Guang Yi could clearly see the confused expressions on their faces.
He shouldn't have been the one to face them!
It shouldn't have been like this!
It shouldn't have been like this!
…
If it was in the past, Yao Guang Yi would have enjoyed such a feeling. If it was in the past, Yao Guang Yi would have enjoyed this feeling.
If it was in the battle, Yao Guang King Yao, it.
Because Yao Guang Yi clearly knew that in the other battle, in the other battle against Wang Yan and the Wang Clan, he had already suffered a crushing defeat. He had lost without any suspense!
"It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this … Where did I lose?"
Yao Guang Yi muttered to himself, as though he had lost his soul. His mind was filled with thoughts related to this matter.
Before he carried out this matter, he had already carefully deliberated in his mind countless times. He only took action when there were no oversights.
No matter how powerful Wang Yan was, it was impossible for him to predict that he would plot against him at the border.
Yao Guang Yi recalled the information that the scouts had sent back after they set off. Just as he led his army out and was about half a day away from Wang Yan's camp, he received news from his scouts.
Everything was normal! Wang Yan's army was still in the camp, and there were no signs of movement!
These scouts were all seasoned veterans who had followed him for decades. It was because of this news that he was confident that his plan would succeed.
However, what Yao Guang Yi never expected was that when he led his army to Wang Yan's encampment, what awaited him was an empty camp.
And the mastermind, Wang Yan, had strangely appeared fifty li behind him, watching from the sidelines!
Yao Guang Yi was stunned!
Regardless of whether he was willing or not, when those Hu appeared, Yao Guang Yi knew that he had no other choice. He could only lead his army to face them and take over Wang Yan's original role!
He had suffered a crushing defeat in this battle!
As an important part of sowing discord between the Song and Wang Clan, his plan had completely failed! King Qi didn't know how furious he should be.
Who was the one who schemed against him?
Yao Guang Yi's mind was in turmoil.
Wang Yan?
Impossible! If he really had such capabilities, he wouldn't have dared to incite King Qi to plan this series of operations against The King of Song! Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it? Who was it?
In that instant, Yao Guang Yi's back was drenched in cold sweat. After fighting in the royal court for so many years, this was the first time he felt a strong sense of unease.
Just the thought of an 'invisible person' who was as resourceful and adaptable as him hiding behind the scenes to help the Wang Clan made Yao Guang Yi feel uneasy, as though there was a dagger at his back.
…
"Hahaha! Yao Guang Yi, you have miscalculated! "
Different from Yao Guang Yi, at this moment, Wang Yan was overseeing his territory and he was extremely happy. At this moment, in Wang Yan's camp, he was slaughtering chickens and goats, and fine wine was being brewed.
Wang Yan had already passed down orders to reward the three armies!
Even though this battle was fought by Yao Guang Yi, Wang Yan was even more excited than Yao Guang Yi. Everyone thought that Wang Yan was happy for Yao Guang Yi because they were both officials in the royal court. However, no one knew that Wang Yan wasn't thinking of this.
Wang Yan didn't have much talent in politics. Thus, when Yao Guang Yi schemed against him in the Vast Crane Pavilion, Wang Yan didn't know that Yao Guang Yi left the capital and secretly returned to his camp to deal with him.
However, this didn't mean that the Hu had crossed the border. When his scouts found out that Yao Guang Yi's army had defied military orders and was heading in his direction, he was still unaware of it!
The military order of the Tang dynasty dictated that no general was to retreat when facing the invasion of foreign tribes. They had to shoulder the responsibility of repelling the enemy and protecting the territory of the Tang dynasty.
Those who disobeyed would be dealt with according to military law!
Regardless of whether he was willing to or not, when Yao Guang Yi appeared with his army, he had to work together with Yao Guang Yi to fend off the Hu!
— — He didn't have any grudges with Yao Guang Yi, but the two of them weren't that close. Yao Guang Yi's move was too intentional!
If not for his third son Wang Chong's constant reminder, if not for his vigilance, he would have already fallen into Yao Guang Yi's trap.
'The Yao and Wang Clan will work together to bury the hatchet'. Just thinking about the commotion this news would cause in the capital, Wang Yan couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.
When his third son Wang Chong said that Yao Guang Yi intentionally kept silent in the Vast Crane Pavilion to frame him, Wang Yan didn't believe him back then. But at this moment, how could he still doubt it?
"Chong-er, Chong-er, how did he know? … "
Dressed in military armor, Wang Yan faced the north. After the initial agitation and excitement had passed, there was only a single thought left in his mind.
There were simply too many doubts in Wang Yan's mind.
His third son, Wang Chong, was only a fifteen-year-old child. He was rebellious and disobedient! It wasn't just the kidnapping of women, there were also many other things that really disappointed him.
Wang Yan couldn't understand how a fifteen-year-old child like Wang Chong could know that Yao Guang Yi was trying to frame him, and how did he know that Yao Guang Yi would use such a method to deal with him that day?
Yao Guang Yi wasn't an ordinary person!
Wang Yan couldn't understand how a child like Wang Chong could know of such a secretive military matter. If not for the military order, Wang Yan would have flown back to the capital to look for Wang Chong personally to ask him about it.
"The capital should have received my news by now …"
At the peak of the mountain, Wang Yan's cloak fluttered in the wind as he gazed at the gloomy sky in the distance. A few days ago, he had sent a letter back to the capital. Thinking about it, Wang Chong should have received it by now.
…
The training at WuZi Steel was in full swing.
As usual, Wang Chong returned home after supervising the cold forging.
"Mother! … "
Wang Chong pushed open the door with both of his hands. The moment he stepped through the door and called out to his mother, he was stunned. The usually spacious hall was suddenly filled with people.
None of them spoke. When they saw Wang Chong enter, they raised their heads and looked over.
"Mother!"
"Big Uncle!"
"Aunt!"
"Uncle!"
"Cousin!"
…
Seeing these people who wouldn't normally appear here, Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly had a bad feeling.
It was too quiet. Everyone was here.
Other than for his grandfather's birthday, Wang Chong had never seen so many people at home. He had never seen such a scene in the past.
Especially Big Uncle, who sat there with an indiscernible expression on his face.
"Could it be that Old Master Yao reported me to the Holy Emperor? Did something happen?"
Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat. Just when he was feeling uneasy, his vision suddenly darkened. Wang Chong felt his body tightening. A figure rushed over and hugged him tightly.
"Chong-er!"
Just when Wang Chong was about to struggle and resist, he heard a gentle voice. It was his mother!
"Chong-er, your father said everything in the letter. Child, you have finally grown up and become sensible. Mother has wronged you in the past … "
Madam Wang Zhao Shu Hua's tears fell onto Wang Chong's chest. Ever since Wang Chong reincarnated, this was the first time he saw her so agitated.
Wang Chong was taken aback. His gaze swept past his mother's armpit and saw the envelope on the table not too far away. The handwriting on it was extremely familiar to Wang Chong.
"It's father's handwriting! … "
Countless thoughts flashed across Wang Chong's mind. Wang Chong vaguely thought of something. He slowly opened his arms and hugged his mother.
"Mother!"
Wang Chong finally understood why so many people would appear here. After such a long time, is there finally news from father's side?
Judging from his mother's reaction, his efforts didn't go to waste. For the last time, father finally listened to his advice.
