After a while, He Qian also hurried over, and everyone teased her when they saw her. It was rare for the little girl to be shy.

It was a lively day, and it was also lively outside. In the afternoon, Li Xingzhou left the royal mansion and took a carriage to the Yang Mansion in the city. He came to visit Yang Hongzhao and told him something about his son.

Although Yang Jianye is young, he is a man. Unfortunately, a good man is not long-lasting and he cannot survive.

The streets were filled with cheering crowds, discussing the grand event of the prisoner just now.

Li Xingzhou's carriage passed through the lively crowd and listened to the discussions of people around him. The most common story was either that he persuaded An Ding and surrendered to Weizhou, or that Di Zhi blocked the gate of Yanshan Prefecture to fight against ten thousand.

Regarding the emergence of these stories, Li Xingzhou just smiled. There were probably two kinds of psychology. One is that people probably racked their brains and could not think about how he quickly broke through Weizhou and An Ding. So after thinking about it, it made sense to say that the surrender was reasonable and it made sense. After all, no one had really seen how he won two important cities and could show his wisdom.

As for the other hand, why did he call Di Zhi an enemy of ten thousand people, and count the contributions of more than 190 new soldiers on Di Zhi's head, and he made him feel like a person in an instant, because of his real beliefs.

Li Xingzhou was very worried about this. In fact, the Chinese people’s thousands of years of real-person beliefs do more harm than good. When social changes are not drastic, its imprisonment effect is not obvious, but when society is in a drastic change, it greatly imprisons people.

What Li Xingzhou wants to lead must be a world of drastic changes, so he is very worried.

Of course, he was unable to think about those things at this time, so Li Xingzhou didn't care. It was harmless. He was like a person who had just eaten coarse grains and could fill his stomach. He didn't dare to think about delicacies, delicious food, and delicious food.

Soon, the car stopped. Compared to the bustling outside, the surroundings were deserted. After all, the defeated general was the most important result.

There was no guard at the door, and Li Xingzhou knocked on the door, and an old man quickly poked his head out, "Is there anything wrong?"

"I'm here to find the Yang family army. Is the Yang family army at home?" Li Xingzhou spoke.

The old man looked at him and asked, "Who are you?"

"King of Jin Li Xingzhou, inform you master."

The old man was stunned and looked nervous. He nodded quickly and retreated into the house behind him.

After a while, someone hurriedly opened the door for him, "Prince, please come in, my master is waiting in the main hall."

Li Xingzhou followed him and quickly entered the mansion, but found that there were basically no people around him, deserted, and thick fallen leaves piled on the ground and no one cleaned them.

"What's going on?" Li Xingzhou asked.

"Oh, report back to the prince, the master has sent all the servants and maids in the mansion away these days, and only a few old men are left." The old man said.

Li Xingzhou looked at the decay around him and felt a little puzzled. Did Yang Hongzhao think he was dead? So he arranged his funeral in advance?

As they thought about it, they had already walked to the inner hall, and Yang Hongzhao was already waiting for him in ordinary clothes.

"The criminal Yang Hongzhao has seen the prince." Li Xingzhou went in and Yang Hongzhao bowed.

Li Xingzhou smiled and said, "No, in my heart, Lord Yang is not a criminal minister." He said that, and then the two sat down.

"Your Majesty is here in the capital today. Why is it difficult to get by and... Yang Hongzhao is puzzled.

Li Xingzhou said: "It's nothing, I just want to come and see Lord Yang. After returning to Beijing, Lord Yang is in a bad situation."

Yang Hongzhao didn't say anything, so he had acquiesced.

He sighed and said, "I know this is unfair, and Lord Yang should not be treated like this."

"Prince..." Yang Hongzhao was surprised.

"I know very well and understand that your life is not easy, so let's take a look at you." Li Xingzhou said seriously. He really admired this unsuccessful veteran. "The so-called planning is in people, and success is in heaven. When Lord Yang does many things, he will surpass 99% of the people in the world, and also surpass those who are just talking big and talk about war on paper.

As for success or not, it depends on the time and luck. At least in my opinion, Lord Yang has done his best in everything he has done and has done very well. As for failure, it is just bad luck."

As he heard him say, Yang Hongzhao's expression moved, his mouth opened and his lips were shaking, as if he was so moved that he couldn't speak.

Lee Sing-cheung said: "After the general returns to Beijing, he must have suffered huge slander. The pressure he bears is not comparable to ordinary people, but I believe it will always come to great success."

"The prince's love... I dare not take it!" Yang Hongzhao stood up and shook his head, bowed his hands, unable to control his emotions for a moment, and tears flowed.

Li Xingzhou quickly pulled him up and held his thin hand. The old man had big knuckles, which was a characteristic that only people who used weapons all year round. The palms were covered with calluses, and a pair of big hands were like a rock. This was not something that could be achieved overnight.

"Mr. Yang, you deserve it." Li Xingzhou smiled and said, "I will find a way in the court. Lord Yang doesn't have to worry about his life. Please bear it during this period, and I will find a way as soon as possible.

I have always liked Xunzi's words, and today I also gave them to Lord Yang, 'Heaven does not hate cold, and stops winter when the earth does not hate far away, and stops wide when the gentleman does not love villains.'" He finished solemnly.

Yang Hongzhao nodded: "I remember it."

As he said that, Li Xingzhou asked the accompanying person to bring in a small box, "It contains five hundred taels of silver. Recently, Lord Yang was removed from his official position. He has no salary and does not have much money. Please help for the time being, you don't have to refuse. For me, five hundred taels are just a drop in the bucket, and you don't have to feel that you owe me anything. This is what the court owes you."

As he said that, Li Xingzhou couldn't help but refuse and asked his entourage to put the box on the table.

"Prince... Thank you, old minister!"

Giving money is also one of Li Xingzhou's goals. A veteran who is born and dies should not end up like this.

The next thing is sad...

"There is another thing, about General Xiao Yang..." He hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "We found his body in Yanshan Mansion, and he was killed by the Liao people..."

Yang Hongzhao's eyes dimmed and he nodded blankly: "The old minister already knows..."

Li Xingzhou sat down and his voice became less loud: "When we found him, we had passed away for too long and could not bring him back, so we were buried on the spot. Now Yanshan Mansion is the territory of our country of Jingguo, and it is also considered that our souls have returned to our hometown."

Yang Hongzhao only sighed lightly and did not speak. Li Xingzhou continued: "General Yang's bravery is highly admired by the king and his soldiers, so I have written to the court to give him a title."

Yang Hongzhao was stunned, then said in surprise: "But... but the old minister is a sinner, the son of the sinner..."

"Merit is merit, fault is fault. Besides, merit is not implicated. You are a criminal minister and your son is not. I will explain these clearly to the emperor." He made a loud voice.
