As the departure starts, Gaojiazhuang became more and more noisy, as if it was a big market.

The front hall of Gaojiazhuang was steaming, filled with the fragrance of fine wine and barbecue. The walls in the hall were decorated with colorful brocade and red lanterns. According to the highest etiquette, there were rows of small tables, and the guests sat in separate seats. Several singers from the royal palace who had just come from Yangzhou with Concubine Xiao were playing the pipa, and a team of young and beautiful blonde and blue-eyed Hu dancers were dancing. There were large braziers in the corners of the hall, burning silver charcoal, and the guests were staggering in the cups on the table, chatting in a drunken manner, and the hustle and bustle. Ling Yun, the male owner of Gaojiazhuang, could only stay with the last seat at this time.

At this time, he felt the status of an illegitimate child, which was no better than a son-in-law.

At this time, he sat in front of the last table, picked up the wine pot and poured wine for himself, fully feeling this feeling.

He didn't quite understand why Yang Guang brought Concubine Xiao. The ones who came with Concubine Xiao were Yang Qing, the second son of Yang Guang, the king of Yuzhang, and many staff members in the King of Jin's mansion. He couldn't tell whether this banquet was for his farewell wine tomorrow or a welcome dinner for Concubine Xiao. Anyway, it seemed that Yang Guang was taking over the leader, Yang Guang and Concubine Xiao were sitting at the top, and Ling Yun's two wives Qianxue and Qiangwei sat in front of him, opposite the prince Yang Qing.

Ling Yun was sitting next to him with the low-level officers of the Prince of Jin's personal army, most of whom were entitled as governors or generals. This group of young military officers rarely attended a banquet with King Jin. Even though they were far away, they were cheerful and drank heroically. He was quite interested in them. Maybe they would be among the people who went north from tomorrow. At this time, he would listen carefully to them telling stories about war, hunting, or women.

Princess Xiao of Jin was as beautiful as rumored. She was a few years older than Yang Guang. Her second son, Yang Ming, was fourteen years old and grew up to be a tall and handsome prince, but she was still as young as a young woman. She was tied up with golden steps towards the phoenix on her high-cared bun, and the perfect match of the hairpin with pearls. When she came in, Yang Guang held her with one hand and led her to the seat to sit down. However, she never looked at him from beginning to end. Ling Yun could feel that the princess's smile contained indifference. The smile was made of superficial skills towards the guests in the hall, and indifference was really towards him, the illegitimate child.

However, Yang Guang was in the golden stage, strong, heroic, elegant, full of kingly temperament. In this hall, he was indeed outstanding. He always felt intimate between chatting and laughing, and even felt like he was working for him.

Below their couple is Yang Hing, who was named King of Yuzhang at the age of nine. Although he was the prince for five years, he was still fourteen years old at this time. He was also the only son who followed Yang Guang and his wife. His eldest son, Yang Zhao, the King of Henan, was raised in the palace since he was a child. Last year, he officially married the daughter of the marching commander Cui Hongsheng. Cui was a big family. Cui Hongsheng's brother Cui Hongdu was also the marching commander, and his sister was the concubine of the King of Qin Yang Jun. Yang Guangrang

The eldest son married the niece of Concubine Qin, and he also had the idea of ​​strengthening his relationship with the King of Qin. The Cui family's two pillars, two princes, and two princes, are very important for Yang Guang to be able to help. Especially the Qin King Yang Jun was dismissed last year, which is not a bad thing for Yang Guang, but a good thing. Yang Jun was dismissed from office and could not compete with him for the reserve position after he fell out of favor. In this way, Yang Jun's power was just for him, and the brothers joined forces to fight against the other brothers.

Yang Zhao has now stayed in Beijing after marriage and officially served as the chief officer of one of the three provinces of the Inner Shiling.

Ling Yun looked at Yang Ming secretly. Yang Ming in history was a arrogant prince who was close to villains and did things in violation of laws and regulations. Originally, the prince Yang Zhao died early. As Yang Guang's only legitimate son, he had a good chance to succeed the position of prince. Unfortunately, he did nothing and was abandoned by Yang Guang. Even during the rebellion in Jiangdu, Yang Guang's first reaction was that Yang Ming was rebelling and causing chaos. When the rebel soldiers broke into Yang Ming's house, he also thought that Yang Guang sent someone to kill him. However, Yang Ming was still very immature at this time and was always with Yang Guang and was subjected to

Constraint, he had a good reputation at this time, with handsome appearance, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was very popular with Yang Jian and his wife like his elder brother Yang Zhao. In other words, the prince Yang Yong gave birth to ten sons, but they were all illegitimate sons. Yang Guang's two legitimate sons were actually the eldest and second grandsons of Yang Jian and his wife. Yang Qing followed Yang Guang and read a lot of books with the bachelor of the royal family. He wrote and wrote articles and articles with several Yang Guang's style. He was also strong and good at archery, horse riding and shooting, and was more brave than his eldest son Yang Zhao.

In Ling Yun's opinion, Yang Ming had no chance to be led by a villain, and was cautious in his behavior. He worked very hard at the banquet and wanted to learn from his father Yang Guang's king's attitude. Next to him, there were a few girls, but a few little girls with pink makeup and jade. This was Yang Guang's daughter. The military officer next to him introduced him that the highest one was the eldest daughter of the King of Jin, Princess Nanyang. Yang Guang was the prince, but his daughter was named Princess, which seemed a bit strange. But it was normal at this time. In the Sui Dynasty, the emperor's daughter was usually granted a county and called a county princess, while the prince's daughter was granted a county or a county princess, but it was usually called a princess directly. Yang Guang's sister, King Yang A, was the princess of Lanling County, and Yang Guang's daughter was the princess of Nanyang County. Only after the Tang Dynasty, the title of princess would become the title of the daughter of the emperor, and the daughter of the prince was changed to the princess.

Princess Nanyang is the eldest daughter of Yang Guang and Concubine Xiao. She is only twelve years old this year, but she is tall and beautiful, and is somewhat similar to Concubine Xiao. She has a little princess' aura and strives to show the nobleness and solemnity of the royal princess. She holds a little girl in her hand, but she is only a few years old, and there are two older girls following her. These three little girls are also Yang Guang's daughter. The one that Princess Nanyang is holding is born to Concubine Xiao, the sister of a mother in Nanyang, and the other two are from other concubines of the King of Jin. Now, there is no princess title yet.

On this occasion, Yang Guang's concubines did not appear, but it was still like Yang Guang's family dinner. The couple took a few children and were lively.

Huifeng sneaked in at some point and ran to a few tables to rub his legs. Ling Yun smiled. It seemed that this little thing was quite capable and could sneak in under the eyelids of the guards outside. He smiled secretly and threw a large piece of mutton a few times while the person was not paying attention. So Huifeng licked Ling Yun gratefully a few times, and quickly lowered his head and feasted.

"Are you that illegitimate child?" A strange voice suddenly rang in his ears.

Ling Yun looked up, and Yang Qing slipped to the last seat in front of the hall at some point, staring at the Huifeng under the table, and asked inadvertently.

"Yes," Ling Yun replied, "I am the illegitimate child." The answer was very straightforward, without any drag.

A governor who was talking and laughing with his companions next to him quickly stopped and gave the position to the young Prince Yuzhang. Yang Ming sat down without hesitation, picked up a knife and cut a piece of mutton and threw it to Huifeng, "Is this a wolf, did you raise it?"

Lingyun smiled but refused to answer.

Huifeng ignored the meat thrown by Yang Ming. He only ate the food that Ling Yun fed. Even if other people throw the meat for him, he would not eat it randomly.

Yang Ming frowned with dissatisfaction: "This beast... forget it. Your name is Yi Feng, right?" Yang Ming emphasized the word Yi Feng, as if reminding him that he was just an illegitimate child and even the surname Yang was not worthy of possessing it. As he said, he cut off another piece of meat with a knife, but this time he drank some sauce and stuffed it into his mouth.

"You can also call me Ling Yun." Ling Yun smiled. He didn't take the child's provocation to heart, and he wouldn't let the child call him elder brother. That was not suitable, and Yang Guang would definitely not allow him. Yang Guang was not Yang Yong, and he would not bring his illegitimate son back to the palace. Yang Yong did have to pay a huge price for his hasty decision. Now he lost favor, even his future loss of storage, and even his life. Even the illegitimate son and other illegitimate sons did not survive. To a large extent, it was due to his hasty decision. Yang Guang was not Yang Yong.

"This wolf is good!"

"It's not an ordinary wolf," Ling Yun said, "it has been raised since childhood and is very human."

"The palace also has hunting dogs, which are more fierce than wolves. When hunting, they can surround and kill tigers and leopards. But the most powerful hunting dogs must also listen to their masters." Yang Ming said meaningfully, trying his best to pretend to be profound.

Ling Yun smiled, not saying anything.

"My mother is in a bad mood recently." Yang Ming stared at Ling Yun and said.

"Then you should advise the princess to be more open-minded. In fact, I don't know how many people envy her in the princess's life. Why bother with her?"

Ling Yun had noticed that Xiao did not like him, his illegitimate son. At the banquet all night, Xiao did not look at him. This deliberateness reflected her inner attitude and mood towards him. She sat there like a cold statue. Concubine Xiao was indeed angry. Yang Guang suddenly told him that he had an illegitimate son, and that the illegitimate son was eighteen years old, and he also asked her to come to Gaojiazhuang to see the illegitimate son. She definitely didn't want to see Ling Yun, and even if she wanted to see him, she wouldn't want to see him in person.

"Prince, I will set off for the north tomorrow. I will also tell the princess that my name is Yi Feng, now it is Yi, and in the future it is Yi Feng."

Yang Hing seemed very satisfied with the answer and smiled and said, "Well, you are very smart. I hope you will remember what you said today in the future, so that it will not harm you." After a pause, he said, "In fact, it is good to go to the north. If you go outside the pass, you can go to Yingzhou to meet the Yingzhou General Manager. The father has already appointed the second daughter of General Manager Wei as the little princess." When he said this, Yang Hing was a little proud. Wei Chong is a member of the Wei family in Jingzhao. The Wei family is a large family in Guanlong. The Wei family is full of children and civil and military families in the court, Wei Chong, Wei Shou, Wei Bing, Wei Shi, Wei Yi, Wei Shikang, etc. Yang Guang chose a daughter-in-law, not only to have a good daughter-in-law, but more importantly, the family is strong, and the daughter of the Cui family was chosen for the eldest son and the Wei family was chosen for the second son.

During the Sui Dynasty, the Wei family was very prosperous, and they held many military positions, commanding troops and commanding generals, guarding one side. Wei Chong was both civil and military, fought south and north, defending the Turks, pacifying the southern barbarians, and conquering the western part of Liao. Later, he returned to the court to serve as the Minister of Civil Affairs. At this time, Yingzhou, western Liaoning, connected to the Turks in the west and Goryeo in the east, was the top priority in the entire border situation. The imperial court arranged Wei Chong to be in charge of Yingzhou, which shows his reliance.

Yang Guang and Wei Chong's marriage was somewhat subtle at this time. Yingzhou is located in the rear of Yang Liang. Wei Chong naturally stood on Yang Guang's side with famous generals like Yang Guang, which is much more powerful than Ling Yun's nail. Ling Yun is now going to the northern border, and even if everything goes well, he will only gather a miscellaneous card. Wei Chong is actually guarding Yingzhou in the rear of Yang Liang and has heavy troops.

Ling Yun thought about Yang Guang's layout and was silent for a moment. Yang Ming thought he was being suppressed by his secret threats, and said proudly: "You don't have to worry. Then you will report my father's name. Manager Wei will definitely take good care of you. No matter what, you are doing your business for my father."

"That's true, thank you for helping the prince." Ling Yun's mouth curled down slightly. He picked up the wine glass from the table, poured the wine, and toasted Yang Hung. Yingzhou general manager Wei Chong is Yang Guang's person. Although this is a threat to Ling Yun, it is even more helpful. Anyway, Qianxue and Qiangwei are in Yang Guang's hands, he has no intention of having more ideas. He is also worried that he will be able to gain a foothold by being between several major forces at that time, but since Yang Guang's in-laws are here, he will have to help him at that time.

Yang Guang sat on the table and talked to Concubine Xiao, but his eyes were secretly observing Ling Yun all night. Seeing Ling Yun being deliberately neglected and even embarrassed by him, he was slightly surprised, but he became more and more satisfied with him. After seeing his second son Yang Qing sneaking to talk to him, he was a little worried, but turned his head to look at his wife Xiao Meiniang, but saw Concubine Xiao turn aside, and knew that the kid must have been instructed by her mother to make things difficult for the illegitimate child. However, unexpectedly, nothing seemed to happen between the two, just talking and even drinking together.

This kid is very deep in the Cheng family.

Xiao Meiniang also clearly saw Yang Qing and Ling Yun drinking together, and her eyes were a little confused. She originally hinted that Yang Qing would warn her illegitimate child to not have too many inappropriate thoughts. This was not entirely because of her jealousy. She admitted that she was a little jealous, but more concerned about her husband's career. She didn't want her husband to lose his position because of an illegitimate child. The harm of this illegitimate child is too great. If the two saints know, her husband's future will be ruined. Look at the prince, the big reason is that he has not handled the illegitimate child well, and has reached this point? She asked her son to warn her illegitimate child, which also made him more aware of the current situation. However, Yang Qing actually talked and laughed with the illegitimate child, and even started drinking. Does this child really treat the illegitimate child as his elder brother?

Xiao Meiniang looked at Ling Yun secretly and became a little more alert!
