The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 89

Over the years, the people of Yan State have gradually become richer, and the officials of Yan State have naturally become richer.It's not that there are no officials who are thinking of building a new mansion next to it. It's just that Emperor Yan has only renovated and repaired the palace for so many years, and has not repaired other palaces. Although other officials have this idea, they have not really implement.

Emperor Yan sits on the entire Yan Kingdom, and still lives in the original palace. As an official under him, if you build a new official residence, is this showing that you are richer than Emperor Yan, or showing how much you have been greedy in the past few years? money?

No one would do such a stupid thing.

Taiwei's Mansion is not too far from the imperial palace, Gao Xian just sat in the carriage for a while, and then arrived at Taiwei's Mansion.

After being notified by the concierge, Gao Xian was led into the mansion by the housekeeper of Taiwei's mansion.After that, I stayed in the living room for a while before seeing an old man and a middle-aged man walking in from the door.

This old man has a straight back, and although the beard on his chin has been bleached, he walks with vigor.This person is Dayan's only minister with a different surname, King Mengchan of Chu.

As for the middle-aged man who followed behind him, he was also extraordinary, with a hulking back, but just walking towards him made one feel a sense of ferocity.

This person is not only tall, but also has a gleam of light in his eyes from time to time.

Gao Xian recognized this person. This was Meng Han, the eldest son of King Chu.This man is both civil and military. He went out with his father at the age of 13. He has been through all kinds of wars.He is a leading figure among the young generals of Dayan.He was named General Zuo by Emperor Yan.

Seeing the two of them walking into the hall, Gao Xian hurriedly got up to salute and said, "I have seen King Chu and General Zuo."

"Eunuch Gao is about to be excused." Meng Chan waved his hand.

After waiting for a few people to be courteous, seeing the etiquette, and talking a few gossips, Meng Chan asked, "Gao Gonggong, what's the matter with you this time?"

"Your Majesty ordered the King of Chu to enter the palace to talk."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Because the sky was getting dark, at this time, there were no electric lights. Although there were torches and oil lamps for lighting, they could only see the surrounding environment clearly, which was too different from daytime.

In order to protect the emperor and reduce the possibility of accidents, after dark, under normal circumstances, Emperor Yan will not summon his ministers again, and generally postpone the discussion to the morning of the next day unless there is something urgent Condition.That's why the king of Chu asked this question.

"Here, about His Majesty's matter, how can a slave in our family know about that? When the King of Chu enters the palace and sees the Emperor, won't it be clear what the so-called matter is?" Gao Xian said with a bit of yin and yang.

When he came to Taiwei's mansion, it was fine if no one greeted him, but when he sat in the living room, he didn't even have an entertainer.It was very different from the treatment he received when he went to Changsunhou's mansion during the day, so he was naturally full of anger.

However, his identity is just a slave, and the other party is indeed a prince, so he can't say anything, he can only act like a businessman.Now that the King of Chu has asked him, he naturally wants to make a run for it.

He was not afraid of delaying Emperor Yan's affairs and preventing King Chu from entering the palace.He expected that the king of Chu would not dare to disobey the order.If he changed his normal behavior and flattered the King of Chu, it would be suspicious.

"You..." A trace of anger flashed across Meng Chan's face.Just as he was about to slap the table and stand up, Meng Han, who was standing behind him, put his hand on his shoulder and shook his head at him.

Meng Chan's face changed, but he didn't move.He listened to his son very much, because he was able to get to where he is today, and his son should be said to have contributed a lot.

Although, he and Emperor Yan are fellow villagers.He is deeply favored by him, but if Emperor Yan forcibly promotes him to be King of Chu without any achievements, I am afraid that other people will not be convinced.

In the past, although he fought fiercely, he didn't have anything in his mind. At best, he could only be regarded as a general who charged into battle, far from the commander in charge of the three armies.

Although he can't think of so many schemes in his mind, he has one advantage, that is, he doesn't mess around and can listen to opinions.His son was smart since he was a child, and he fought with him in the north and south, and most of the victories in the war were because he listened to Meng Khan's advice.

However, not being able to explode means that he will give in to this eunuch who is neither male nor female. Meng Chan snorted coldly and walked out.

Seeing Meng Chan going out, Meng Han took a step forward, smiled at Gao Xian and said, "Director Gao, my father has a bad temper, don't worry about it, I'll go and persuade him."

After that, he went out to catch up.Gao Xian was left alone in the hall.A ruthless look flashed across Gao Xian's face.He secretly said in his heart: "Let you get a sense of it first, and you will see it when you enter the palace."

Meng Chan didn't go far. Although he was angry, he was not irrational.So Meng Han chased after him without taking a few steps.

"Father, why did you do this? It's not a complete offense to Director Gao."

"Damn, look at him, he looks like a villain, if he was in the barracks, I would have chopped his head off." Meng Chan spat on the ground and said angrily.

Ever since he became the King of Chu, no one has given him such anger. Even Emperor Yan would call him kindly when talking to him: "Chendi."

"Father, since you know that Gao Xian is a villain, there is no need to be angry with him. You are the first in the list of three sons that is going viral. Although it is not very credible, you have to be careful. "

"Now His Majesty wants to call you into the palace at this time. We must at least know the reason." Meng Han said with some earnestness. stubborn.

"What are you afraid of? Your Majesty and I are sworn brothers, and I just settled Karasuma for him. How can he deal with me? Besides. Do you still remember what His Majesty promised me?" At this point , Meng Chan was a little smug.

In the past, Emperor Yan was besieged by 30 enemy troops in Chenliu, and called Meng Chan to lead his troops to rescue him.Meng Chan led an army of 20, attacked the strong with the weak, and did not retreat in bloody battles. In the end, the weak defeated the strong and defeated the enemy.

Afterwards, in order to show his favor to him, Emperor Yan issued an order: "As long as Meng Chan steps on the land of Yan, he can see the sky without dying, which is also called seeing the light without dying, seeing the ground without dying, seeing swords and metal weapons without dying, and seeing men without dying. The ropes of the world cannot bind him.”

"Father is talking about the "Five Immortals" given to you by His Majesty. "However, this is regarded as a joke of His Majesty. It is not sure whether it is serious or not. If His Majesty refuses to admit it, what should we do?"

"You are not joking, as the king of Great Yan, how can you not count your words."
