MTL - I Thought I Was Straight-Chapter 111 After getting off the dragon bed, the minister panicked②

"What?! Yan Ge has already entered Beijing!"

Li Xiu put both hands on the table and stared at Yang Yanqing with wide eyes.

"Yes." Yang Yanqing's old face turned green, "People have already entered the capital, and the army is camping outside the capital."

It's over, it's over, it's over...

Li Xiu fell down on the dragon chair in a daze, and said inexplicably with grief and indignation: "He actually treats my imperial decree as nothing!"

"Yes." Yang Yanqing shook his head and said, "Don't be a son of man, don't be a son of man..."

At this time, Chen Hong came over in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty, General Yan Ge is asking to see you."

"What? He's here?" Li Xiu was so frightened that she almost jumped up, "He just came in?"

Yang Yanqing also took a few steps back in fright. Chen Hong didn't understand why the old and the young were all suffering from epilepsy, he said: "The general came to see him alone."

"Um?!"

Yang Yanqing immediately realized, "He came alone?"

"Yes." Chen Hong said inexplicably: "The general returned to Beijing to report on his duties and came to meet His Majesty, so he was alone."

Li Xiu was still in shock, and still refused to believe, "Is he really the only one?"

Chen Hong confirmed, "He's the only one."

Li Xiu, who was scared to death, became even more indignant, "What the **** is he trying to do?"

"Who knows..." Yang Yanqing calmed down, and said to Li Xiu, "Your Majesty, why don't you see me?"

Li Xiu thought that he was the only one anyway, so it would be no harm to meet him. If it wasn't for the presence of Yan Ge's army outside the city, he really wanted to ambush him behind the screen and chop him into pieces as soon as Yan Ge came in.

But if you think about it, you can only think about it. Li Xiu waved her hand and said, "General Xuan Yan Ge."

"General Xuan, Yan Ge!"

Wearing a pitch-black armor and a scarlet cloak behind him, Yan Ge walked into the royal study step by step.

Li Xiu swallowed nervously, and saw that man who was so distasteful walking in, every step seemed to be on his mind.

"My lord, General Yan Ge, pay homage to my emperor." Yan Ge knelt on one knee, and said in a strong voice, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Li Xiu gritted her teeth and said, "Aiqing, get back down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yang Ge was about to stand up when Yang Yanqing said, "No."

But Yan Ge still stood up, looked sideways at Yang Yanqing and said, "Who are you?"

"Who am I?" Yang Yanqing's nose was crooked in anger, "This old man is Yang Yanqing, the prime minister of the dynasty. When you were born, this old man went to drink the full moon wine, and you still play tricks on me?"

"Oh, I'm really sorry." Yan Ge said: "I didn't remember well when I was full moon, and I don't remember what you look like."

Yang Yanqing: "..."

Li Xiu has been observing Yan Ge ever since he came in. He originally thought that Yan Ge, who grew up in the frontier and was famous in the government and the public, was a rough guy, but he didn't expect him to be surprisingly handsome. How can fair skin look a bit exposed to the wind and sun at the border? It must be an embroidered pillow that is delicious, lazy, and covetous.

But seeing his big and energetic eyes, thick sword eyebrows straight into the temples, thin lips tightly pursed, and his chin is actually a bit pointed. On the contrary, he had a good appearance. Li Xiu felt a little relaxed. He likes to judge people by their appearance. Seeing that Yan Ge looked a little like a boy, he relaxed his vigilance towards him.

Li Xiudao: "Why do you disobey the order?"

Yang Yanqing: "Ah yes, do you know that disobedience to the imperial decree is a capital offense?"

Yan Ge said with an innocent face: "What imperial decree? What imperial decree did you disobey?"

Seeing that he was still pretending to be stupid, Li Xiu suppressed her anger and said: "I sent you an imperial decree before, saying that you have made you a Marquis of Penglai after your hard work in guarding the border, so that you don't have to go back to Beijing, and you can stay at the border with peace of mind. Why did you return to Beijing despite disrespecting the edict? You'd better give me an explanation?"

"Ah? Is this true?" Yan Ge looked surprised, "I haven't received any imperial decree."

Li Xiu: "What did you say?"

"I haven't received the imperial decree." Yan Ge looked sincere, "I haven't seen any envoy from the capital either."

"How is it possible?" Li Xiu said angrily, "I just..."

"Could it be that the person who announced the decree lost his way?" Yan Ge analyzed solemnly: "The Tang Dynasty has a vast territory, and the border gates are even more sparsely populated. It's normal to get lost."

Li Xiu looked at Yan Ge dumbfounded, her face twitched violently, and said to herself, do you think I am a fool? Do you think I will believe your nonsense?

"However, I am also at fault for not receiving the imperial edict. I shouldn't have left so fast." While speaking, Yan Ge suddenly knelt down on one knee and said loudly, "This is all the fault of my lack of care. I am terrified!"

Li Xiu was taken aback by his sudden yell, leaned back on the chair, and said in panic, "I'm afraid...it's me..."

Yang Yanqing at the side also didn't believe what Yan Ge said, he pointed at Yan Ge angrily and said, "Do you think His Majesty will believe your nonsense?"

"Why don't you believe it? Everything I said is the truth." While speaking, Yan Ge stretched out his hand and made a gesture of scratching, and said: "If you don't believe the Prime Minister, you can go outside the city and ask the 100,000 troops I brought."

Yang Yanqing: "..."

Li Xiu: "..."

Li Xiu had a mouthful of old black blood stuck in her throat, thinking that you are reminding me not to forget the 100,000 troops you brought?

Yang Yanqing was so choked that he rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that he should not be a son of man... he should not be a son of man...

The three of them stared at each other in the imperial study, and finally Li Xiu gave in. If he is not subdued, who will subdue? He is the softest present. Li Xiudao: "The general doesn't know what you are talking about when you come to Beijing this time? When do you plan to return to the border and continue to defend the country for me?"

Yan Ge immediately said with sadness and grievance on his face: "Ever since I left the capital for the border at the age of two, I have never been back. For so many years, the people in Jing's hometown, my hometown, have been in my dreams every night. Appeared. I have been away from home for too long, and I am homesick. That's why I submitted a memorial requesting to return to Beijing to report on my duties, and I don't want to leave for the time being."

Li Xiu almost jumped up on the spot, what do you mean? Are you trying to hang on?

Yang Yanqing on the side looked indifferent, and said to himself that you left when you were two years old, you remember your hometown, what a fart, and the people in your hometown have never seen such a brazen person!

After finishing speaking, Yan Ge looked at Li Xiu eagerly, and there seemed to be crystal liquid shaking in his eyes, "Your Majesty won't even refuse such a small request from the minister?"

Li Xiu endured and endured, but in the end he couldn't hold back, he said: "You come back as soon as you come back, why do you want to come back with an army of 100,000?"

Yan Ge said: "There is a reason why I brought the army back, let me tell you slowly. First of all, these are recruits, and I need to be responsible for training. Second, I heard that the traitorous party is rampant in the court. , the minister was afraid that His Majesty would be wronged in the capital, so he deliberately brought a hundred thousand troops back to His Majesty Qingjun."

"Yang Ge!" Yang Yanqing finally couldn't listen anymore, and the man in his sixties jumped up in anger. He pointed at Yan Ge's nose and said, "Who do you say is a traitor?!"

Yan Ge: "I didn't mention you, why are you so excited?"

"Am I excited?" Yang Yanqing couldn't control his voice, "It's obvious that you are pointing nonsense and scolding Huai. How did this old man offend you?"

"Prime Minister..." Yan Ge raised his eyebrows at Yang Yanqing, "Are you checking in on yourself?"

"Nonsense!"

"Then why are you so excited?"

Li Xiu got a headache from the noise, he covered his head and said, "Stop making noise, my head is about to explode."

"Does Your Majesty have a headache?" Yan Ge immediately presented a brocade box, "This is the thousand-year-old wild ginseng that I found outside the customs. It is specially used to treat headaches, and I am here to present it to Your Majesty."

Yang Yanqing: "Hmph, I've never heard that ginseng can cure headaches."

"Okay, okay, all of you go out." Li Xiu waved her hands as if she was epileptic, "I have a headache and want to rest, I will call you another day, you go."

…

Yan Ge and Yang Yanqing went out of the palace together, Yang Yanqing looked at Yan Ge with a gloomy expression. Yan Ge said: "Old Prime Minister, your eyes make me very uncomfortable. If you still look at me like this, I will ask you to go outside the city and get along with my 100,000 brothers. What do you think?"

"Hmph!" Yang Yanqing... ran away in despair.

"Heh." Yan Ge rolled his eyes, and the deputy general who was waiting at the gate of the palace came up to him and said, "General, your old house has been tidied up, and the general will take you here."

"Don't worry, I have something for you to do." Yan Ge said in the ear of the lieutenant general: "There is a man named Lu Xian among the applicants rushing for the exam in the capital. Find him for me."

"yes!"

Although he didn't know what Yan Ge wanted to do, Li Xiu still had to do what he was supposed to do. After all, the current him doesn't have the strength to force himself against Yan Ge. Anyway, he can live under Yang Yanqing's control, and he can live under Yan Ge's lust. He can only comfort himself that he can't see anything.

The nine-day examination was finally over, and Li Xiu couldn't wait to see how the talents of Datang answered the papers. Among them, what he looked forward to the most was the Lu Xian whom he met upstairs that day. When the list of Jinshi candidates in the examination was delivered to him, he took a look. There was no Lu Xian in the top three, and there was no one in the top two. Without Lu Xian.

Could it be that he only got a top three in the exam? That day, I saw that he was very good-looking, upright, upright, and full of literary talents. I thought he was so powerful. Could it be that he was just fancy but not useful?

He continued to look at the densely packed list of hundreds of top three fellow Jinshi, and when he finally finished reading it, he was dizzy and didn't see Lu Xian's name. no? Can't even pass the top three exams?

Holding this list, Li Xiu fell into deep entanglement. He raised his head and looked suspiciously at the chief examiner, the Grand Master of Longyuan Pavilion, and said, "These are the talents you selected for me?"

"Exactly." When he was in college, he said with a righteous face: "After reviewing the papers for more than half a month, I and several colleagues finally selected these 360 ​​talents from the Great Tang Dynasty for Your Majesty."

Li Xiu had nothing to say, and said, "That's it."

After sending the bachelors out to prepare for the imperial examination half a month later, Li Xiu said to Chen Hong, "Go, find Lu Xian's answer sheet for me."

Chen Hong left in a hurry, and came back the next day profusely sweating, "Your Majesty, then Lu Xian didn't participate in the test at all."
