Chapter 42: People abandon me

The courtyard where Huangfu Xu lives is not far from Yang Ming's study, only a dozen feet apart. Huangfu Xu was also born in a noble family, but his family was in a downturn. He became a poor scholar, with no ability to tie a chicken, and he made a living by selling his words, and it was difficult to support his wife and daughter. However, he was appreciated by the King of Qi, which made him step by step toward wealth. Although he also found that the King of Qi was foolish, out of a grateful heart, he still tried his best to assist the King of Qi. (")

At this time, Huangfu Xu was sitting at the desk and writing a letter to the county, arranging some things. He originally planned to go to Beijing for one or two days, but Yang Qing encountered a powerful challenge from Yang Yuanqing, which endangered his future. Huangfu Xu had to extend his time in the capital.

His desk was in front of the window, and a breeze blew, causing the paper on the table to scatter. He went to pick up the paperweight casually, but he felt it empty. Huangfu Xu was stunned. Then he realized that the ebony Qilin paperweight on his desk was gone. This piece of ebony Qilin paperweight was left to him by his father. It was his beloved thing. He has been with him for more than ten years and has been carrying it with him. He saw it yesterday afternoon and placed it on the table. Why is it gone now?

Huangfu Xu bent down on the ground to search, then turned back to his bookcase and searched for a while, but he still couldn't see it. Huangfu Xu was confused. If he met a thief, he had something more valuable than ebony paperweight. What's going on?

At this moment, the two guards walked to his door and bowed and said, "Envoy Huangfu, Your Highness asked you to come here immediately."

The two guards did not use the word "please", which made him slightly unhappy, but he didn't say anything, so he quickly stood up and walked towards the Qi King's study.

As soon as he walked to the door of the study, he saw a large group of guards surrounding the King of Qi. Everyone looked at him coldly, which made him stunned. I wonder what had happened?

Yang Hing waved his hand and said, "Take it!"

Several soldiers rushed up and pressed Huangfu Xu to the ground. Huangfu Xu was angry and annoyed, shouting: "Your Highness, what's my fault? Why did you arrest me?"

"You know in your heart that you ungrateful bastard!"

Yang Hsing cursed, rushed forward and kicked Huangfu Xu's nose, and suddenly the bone on the bridge of his nose was kicked. Huangfu Xu screamed and blood gushed out of his nose. He held back the pain and shouted: "Your Highness can kill me, but I must let me understand, what crime did I commit?"

"You dare to pretend to be stupid and use your anger to harm me, you can admit it!"

Yang Ming was furious and kicked him in the face. At this time, he had vented all his hatred for Yang Yuanqing on Huangfu Xu. He believed that Huangfu Xu had been bribed and used his anger to harm him, so his father did not trust him. All this was caused by the ebony.

"Your Highness, I came just yesterday, how can I be angry with You?" Huangfu Xu urgently defended himself.

"As soon as Yang Yuanqing entered Beijing, you also appeared. Is this a coincidence? It is clear that you had planned to meet up first and then enter Beijing at the same time, which will cause my generals to be killed!"

Yang Ming believed Pan Dan as a god, and believed in his words. Foreign enemies should not be afraid of internal troubles. He had already determined that Huangfu Xu was harming him. No matter how Huangfu Xu explained, he would not believe it.

"Drag it down and beat it with a hundred sticks, and drive it out of the mansion!"

If Huangfu Xu hadn't been the magistrate of Yique County, he would have beaten Huangfu Xu to death with sticks.

Several guards dragged Huangfu Xu down, and Huangfu Xu shouted anxiously, "Your Highness, you can't do this. You are destroying the Great Wall yourself. Someone is framed by me!"

The voice gradually faded away, and Yang Ming's hatred had not yet subsided and cursed: "If you dare to harm me again, you will definitely be killed!"

In fact, the guards around him feel something is wrong. Even if they want to harm others, they can't use their own belongings to win, so that others can tell at a glance that this is not self-invested?

But no one dared to persuade Yang Hing. He came back from the Taoist temple in the backyard and dug it out. It was probably Pan Shangxian's idea. The King of Qi was like a god and obeyed his words. Who dared to say too much can only secretly speak for Huangfu Xu.

The side door of King Qi opened, and two guards carried a stretcher out. The stretcher was Huangfu Xu, who was beaten to death, was already dying. The two guards put the stretcher outside the door of the mansion, and ignored it and closed the door with a bang.

At this time, the soldiers of the Right Guard of the East Palace patrolling outside the mansion surrounded him. No one knew what had happened. Someone immediately reported to Han Shie. After a moment, Han Shie walked over quickly. He squatted down and looked for a while, and finally recognized Huangfu Xu in a coma. He had seen him at the gate of Taipei City last night.

He quickly ordered the soldiers: "Send this person to the general of the commander!"

Several soldiers found a carriage and carried the stretcher onto the carriage. The carriage drove towards the private camp outside the city. Where should the Yang Shisu be there. (")

It was not until the afternoon that Huangfu Xu finally woke up from his coma. The pain disappeared and a burst of coolness came. He slowly looked around and he lay in an elegant cottage. Outside the courtyard, the trees were green and the fragrance of flowers wafted away.

At this time, a young soldier walked in and saw Huangfu Xu awakening, and said excitedly: "Sir, I'll go tell the young master!"

"This guy!"

Huangfu Xu called him hard, and his nose felt ache, and then he realized that his nose had been wrapped in gauze. The scenes in the morning jumped into his mind, and Yang Qing kicked the bone of his nose with one kick.

Huangfu Xu sighed inwardly and asked with difficulty: "Where am I now?"

The young soldier is Yang Jiulang, one of Yang Yuanqing's iron guards. He has a baby face and is actually twenty-five years old. He is the youngest of the nine iron guards.

Yang Jiulang smiled and said, "This is Shangshanfang, a yard rented by my son. The famous doctor has already visited him. Mr. Huangfu was just a skin injury and did not break his muscles and bones, but the bones on the bridge of his nose are broken, and it will take some time to heal."

Huangfu Xu knew that this was the mercy of the King of Qi's guards, otherwise he would have been beaten to death by a hundred sticks, but the King of Qi was cruel and actually kicked the bones of his nose. These princes turned their faces and never remembered their old love. He sighed and asked again: "Who is your son?"

"Did the magistrate of Huangfu County feel better?"

A hearty laughter came from outside, and then Yang Yuanqing quickly walked into the room. Huangfu Xu was stunned, "It's you!"

"Who will Huangfu County Magistrate thought it would be? Who else in the capital dares to save you?"

Yang Yuanqing sat down in front of Huangfu Xu with a smile, and said, "I will make it clear first. The injury of Huangfu County Magistrate has nothing to do with me, and I have no idea about this."

"I know this has nothing to do with you. It's because King Qi is stupid. He believed the words of the demonic way and I was harmed by a villain."

Huangfu Xu knew that except for Pan Yaodao hated him to the core, he did not offend others. Only Pan Yaodao could convince King Qi to distrust him.

This result was indeed beyond Yang Yuanqing's expectations. He thought that Pan Yaodao was favored and would definitely convince the King of Qi to avenge him, but he did not expect that the first person this person to deal with was Huangfu Xu. Yang Yuanqing was still thinking about how to deal with the King of Qi, the shrewd military advisor, but he did not expect that King of Qi destroyed the Great Wall by himself. It was really God's will, and God would destroy him.

"Don't the magistrate of Huangfu County think that this is God's will? God can do evil, but he can't live without his own evil!"

After a while, Huangfu Xu sighed, "If he listened to the evil words, he would be doomed and would not have any chance."

Huangfu Xu felt sad and bowed to Yang Yuanqing with difficulty: "Thank you, General Yang, for not taking care of his past grudges and saving my life. Huangfu Xu remembers his heart and begs General Yang to hire another ox cart for me and take me back to Yique County."

Yang Yuanqing pondered for a while. He actually fell in love with Huangfu Xu. Huangfu Xu's cleverness last night left a deep impression on him. He lacked such a counselor around him. Although he was not stupid, a wise man had a thousand mistakes, and he still made a mistake. Moreover, his experience was not rich enough, and some things might not be done properly. He needed a counselor to remind himself and give him advice.

"Can the magistrate of Huangfu County know that the King of Qi raised five thousand armored soldiers?"

Huangfu Xu was shocked. He knew that the King of Qi raised some dead soldiers. The King of Qi told him that there were only four or five hundred people, so he didn't take it seriously. It was normal for a prince to raise some strange people, but he didn't expect that it would be five thousand armored soldiers, which was another matter.

"General Yang... are these words serious?"

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "I was killing Yuan Shangyingshi and discovered this. Later, I went to Jinyang Palace to confirm that Yang Xiao did privately take thousands of sets of armor from Jinyang Palace. Now I have obtained the exact information. Yang Xiao raised five thousand armored soldiers, distributed in five places, one of which is hidden in your Yique County. I thought you know."

Huangfu Xu was frightened, he had never heard of this matter, "No, he never told me about this, General Yang, are you saying that there is a soldier wearing armor in Yique County?"

"Is there any manor in Yique County?"

"Yes! There are three manors, are they hidden in Longmen Manor?"

Huangfu Xu remembered that there was a large manor of the King of Qi near the Longmen Grottoes, covering 10,000 acres of land, surrounded by walls, and valleys and rivers. This was the ideal place for hiding soldiers. If the King of Qi really had armored soldiers in Yique County, it would definitely be there.

At this time, sweat beads appeared on Huangfu Xu's forehead. He finally realized that the King of Qi was playing with fire. The King of Qi had the ambition to usurp the throne. He really couldn't think of any reason. However, the Lord of Qi was very strict in defense. It was a dream that he wanted to change the throne. Once the Lord of Qi knew about it, the King of Qi would be over. Now Yang Yuanqing has mastered it. How long can the King of Qi last? Once the King of Qi falls, his own destiny?

Huangfu Xu didn't dare to think about it anymore, and the private army was kept in his Yique County, and he would undoubtedly die.

Yang Yuanqing said lightly again: "I am not hiding the magistrate of Huangfu County. This time, my capital is to stabilize the situation in the capital. But the Master's real intention is to let me seize 20,000 troops from the Eastern Palace. He is afraid that the King of Qi will take risks. The Master's intention is already very obvious. He has given up on the King of Qi. Since the King of Qi raised dead soldiers two years ago, the Master has doubts about him, so he has been reluctant to let him enter the Eastern Palace. Now he is unable to handle the rebellion in the capital. The Master is disappointed with him. More importantly, the Master can hold the throne for at least twenty years. If the King of Qi is the crown prince, can he wait for twenty years? The Master knows this very well."

When Yang Yuanqing saw that Huangfu Xu was already sweating profusely, he knew that with Huangfu Xu's wisdom, he didn't need to say anything more. As long as he digs a canal by himself, it would be a natural result.

"If Mr. Huangfu is willing, I can create the illusion that Mr. Huangfu is beaten to death by the King of Qi. The gentleman can hide his identity and follow me and be my aide. If Mr. Huangfu is unwilling, I will not force him. In short, I will do my best to help him."

Huangfu Xu lowered his head and said nothing. Yang Yuanqing's ruthlessness and decisiveness formed a sharp contrast with Yang Ming's stupid and arrogant self-confidence. If he followed Yang Yuanqing, he would have nowhere to go. Could it be that he would sell his words for a living? Yang Yuanqing ignored his past grudges, saved his life, and used himself more, which means that he knew and cherished talents. This is the wise ruler that Huangfu Xu wanted to vote for.

After pondering for a long time, he sighed, "After all, King Qi has kindness to me. Although he is ruthless, I don't want to be unrighteous to him. Maybe the general agrees?"

Yang Yuanqing laughed, "You don't need to take action against stupid people like King Qi."

Huangfu Xu resolutely made up his mind and bowed: "General saves my life, how can I not repay my kindness? Huangfu Xu is willing to serve the general!"

Yang Yuanqing was overjoyed, "I'll send someone to bring your family here!"
