Villain: We agreed to cancel the engagement, what are you regretting?

"What do you mean?" Yang Linzheng frowned.

Yang Xiaoxue was also shocked. She was just trying to comfort her elder brother, and she didn't really know the reason why her father did this.

Wang Xuan smiled faintly and said,"In general, it can be summed up in four words."

"His achievements are so great that they shock his master!"

""Too much merit to shock the master?" Yang Linzheng pondered over these four words, frowning even deeper.

As for Yang Xiaoxue, her eyes revealed a trace of confusion, and it was obvious that she didn't understand.

Wang Xuan continued to explain:

"General Yang's position and power have reached the end of the military official's"

"He also won the title of Duke of Chu for his military exploits."

"It has reached the point where there is no more room for praise or reward."

"If this continues, you can only be crowned a king or a marquis."

"The number of kings and princes of different surnames in Daqian is only a handful. They are all descendants of the founding heroes. In the later period, they can only be granted the title of Duke at most."

"To some extent, ennobling a king or a marquis is to divide the territory, which is nothing short of a provocation in the eyes of His Majesty."

Yang Linzheng's face darkened, while Yang Xiaoxue hurriedly said:

"My dad���I have never thought of being crowned a king or a marquis!"

Wang Xuan shook his head:"It doesn't really matter whether General Yang has such an idea or not."

"What matters is what the emperor thinks, and what the civil and military officials think."

"If they think you have the idea of becoming a king, then even if you don't, you still have the idea."

"In order to maintain his power, His Majesty will be wary of you."

"Civil officials need to establish an ambitious military general as a common enemy to win over the emperor and improve their own status."

"Even the generals who are on your side will be jealous and secretly add insult to injury."

What Wang Xuan said was not alarmist.

Although the General's Mansion was not explained in detail in"The Great Rivers and Lakes", the clues in it combined with many similar examples he saw in history in his previous life can be used to infer the general situation.

There is nothing new under the sun, and history always repeats itself.

Yang Xiaoxue's face turned pale when she heard this. She didn't expect that their family seemed calm, but in fact it was full of crises.

His father could actually support himself in such an environment, and he still smiled at her every day. It was really.........

Yang Xiaoxue's eyes were moist.

Yang Linzheng sighed,"No wonder Dad always hides in the mansion every time he comes back from the battle."

"Moreover, he hardly spoke a word during court sessions and did not express his political views."

"Even indulged my younger sister to cause trouble outside......It turns out that it was just to avoid suspicion and to defile oneself!"

Thinking of this, Yang Linzheng finally understood his father's difficulties.

When Yang Xiaoxue heard the key words, she glared at Yang Linzheng:"Brother, how could I cause any trouble?"

"Right, right, right! You didn't cause any trouble, they were the ones who caused you trouble!"

"That's right! It was those dandy boys who were blind and cheap, and bumped into my whip."

Wang Xuan and Yang Linzheng's faces twitched, and then they smiled at each other.

"What are you laughing at?"Yang Xiaoxue was a little embarrassed.

"It's nothing! Big brother, don't laugh anymore." Yang Linzheng stopped laughing, he was really afraid that his little sister would get angry and whip him.

Wang Xuan smiled and touched Yang Xiaoxue's head:"We laugh at you because you are cute! Who doesn't like such a cute Xue'er?"

Yang Xiaoxue lowered her head and said nothing, just pulled the corner of Wang Xuan's clothes.

It was obvious that she was just shy.

Although Yang Linzheng got goose bumps because of what Wang Xuan said, he still silently gave him an affirmative look.

Sure enough, it was you, brother Wang, who could calm down this female devil.

Wang Xuan nodded to indicate that this was all a small matter, and brother would learn a little.

This was just a small episode, and the topic returned to the original direction.

Wang Xuan continued:"That's why General Yang doesn't want you, brother Yang, to practice martial arts, in order to reassure the emperor and show that he has no ambitions."

"Xue'er's martial arts training will not affect the overall situation. Moreover, if a female general appears, His Majesty, as the empress who issued the Equality Order, might be very happy!"

"So that's it." Yang Linzheng suddenly realized, but then his expression changed:"But now I'm the champion of martial arts, will it cause trouble for my father?"

Wang Xuan smiled and said:"Don't worry, as long as I don't join the army, there will be no problem"

"Joining the army means that General Yang is acting on his own, which will make the emperor suspicious."

"Taking part in the martial arts test means giving the choice to His Majesty. This is a matter of attitude."

"Since the emperor gave you the top position, she must be very satisfied with you and will definitely not be dissatisfied with the general."

Yang Linzheng nodded, and he instantly understood the twists and turns. After all, he still has some political sense from what he has seen and heard.

As for Yang Xiaoxue, her eyes were already dull. There were too many twists and turns, and her brain was about to burn out.

"The court should not have assigned an official position to Brother Yang!"

Yang Linzheng nodded:"Yes, the second and third place winners and the rest of the second and third place winners have all rushed to take up their posts, but there is still no news about my official position."

"I guess His Majesty is still hesitating. After all, an excellent talent like Brother Yang should be appointed as a third-rank lieutenant general and sent to the front line to fight against foreign enemies."

Yang Linzheng's eyes lit up:"If that's true, that's exactly what I want!"

If it weren't for Yang Heng's pressure, he would have gone to the front line to kill the enemy long ago, and even dreamed of riding a horse on the grassland

"Brother Yang, don't be too happy too soon. In fact, there is another possibility, which is to grant him the title of Jinyiwei Commander-in-Chief."

Jinyiwei Commander-in-Chief is a rank of fourth grade, and is in charge of the imperial guard.

In plain words, he is the captain of the imperial palace guard.

Those who can obtain this position are all people who are valued and trusted by the emperor.

After all, this is the person who is responsible for protecting the emperor's safety. If he is not trusted, how can he give this position to this person?

Moreover, as a military secret service agency directly under the emperor, Jinyiwei's function is not only to"directly guard the emperor's car", but also to"patrol and arrest", that is, it has the power of reconnaissance, arrest, and interrogation.

It can be said that it is extremely powerful.

So it seems that Jinyiwei Commander-in-Chief is a rank of fourth grade, but compared with the rank of third grade lieutenant general, his power is much greater and more prominent.

It's just that his reputation is not as good as the emperor's.

It sounds so good.

After all, who would like a secret service agency?

Yang Linzheng frowned. He didn't like the Jinyiwei at all. They were always plotting against their own people and were not straightforward at all.

But if the empress really wanted him to join the Jinyiwei, he would have no choice but to go, because he represented the attitude of the General's Mansion, whether to submit or to confront. At this moment, he suddenly understood why his father didn't let him take the martial arts test.

He must have known that there would be such a possibility, and he was afraid of involving himself and doing things he didn't want to do.

Dad just wanted them to be safe and sound.

Thinking of this, Yang Linzheng was in a trance for a while, his expression a little bleak, then he bowed to Wang Xuan and said:

"Lin Zheng admires me and thanks His Highness for this!"

If there was no Wang Xuan, he would not be able to understand the intricate relationship, nor would he understand his father's deep meaning.

It is even possible that this knot will last for a long time, and their father-son relationship will fall into an irreversible situation.

He is sincerely grateful to Wang Xuan.

At the same time, he also admires him very much.

This broke the previous stereotype of him being unlearned and unskilled. It seems that he has really been reborn.

But it is also true that as the son of"Man Butcher", how could it be so simple? He was just deeply trapped in the love disaster before. Who hasn't been young?

Today, he wakes up and is as supreme as Qingyun.

How happy!

Yang Xiaoxue saw Yang Linzheng's actions , her bright eyes widened.

She knew her brother best. He seemed approachable, but in fact, he had high aspirations and looked down on many people of his age.

Even for Lin An, who defeated him, he only admitted that others were stronger than him in martial arts.

But in terms of wisdom, he still looked down on Lin An, and thought that he was pretentious and only knew how to talk on paper.

But this time, he not only bowed to thank Wang Xuan, but also praised him?

Is the sun rising from the west?

Or is my brother Wang Xuan so outstanding that even my eldest brother is impressed?

Seeing that his younger sister was staring at him curiously, Yang Linzheng was a little confused:

"What are you looking at, little sister?"

"Let me see if you are really my elder brother, or someone else in disguise?"

After saying that, Yang Xiaoxue was going to pinch him to see if there were any signs of disguise.

"Stop it, there are people here!" Yang Linzheng was a little embarrassed, he still had to maintain his cool personality!

""Okay!" Yang Xiaoxue finally stopped, she decided to maintain her elder brother's face.

After his knot was resolved, Yang Linzheng felt happy, as if he had endless energy. Then he glanced at Wang Xuan, his heart moved, and he bowed and said:

"Your Highness, I heard that you have reached the Three Flowers Realm. May I ask for your advice?"

Yang Xiaoxue looked nervous and said angrily,"Brother! It's not easy for Brother Wang Xuan to come to the mansion.���What are you doing?"

Fists and feet have no eyes. She would feel bad no matter who gets hurt.

"No problem! I was thinking the same thing, so I can ask Brother Yang for advice on the Yang Family Spear!"Wang Xuan said calmly.

Wang Xuan was still willing to subdue a future top-level master.

And there was no other way to conquer him, except to use his own powerful strength to crush him again and again until he was completely convinced.

Seeing that it was useless to object, Yang Xiaoxue stamped her feet in anger, and finally had to let it go.
