When I was in Qin Dynasty, I really didn't want to make progress

Han Wangan would never allow such a thing. Zuo Sima was in charge of 10,000 elite soldiers, and was an important means for Han Wangan to balance Ji Wuye's power in Xinzheng. He would never let Ji Wuye get involved in the position of Zuo Sima. Otherwise, in the whole Xinzheng, Han Wangan would only be able to control a few thousand soldiers in the Han Palace, and then he, as a king, would be in great danger.

"General, if I heard correctly, the Yang Chong you are talking about is not the one who killed Captain Zhang Wu of Yangdi?" The Prime Minister stepped forward and said.

"Is it that Yang Chong?" Han Wangan cooperated and opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty, there are more than one person named Yang Chong in our Han State. Yang Chong from Xiaxiliu Village, Yangdi County, killed someone. What does this have to do with Yang Chong in Xinzheng? The Yang Chong I am talking about grew up in Xinzheng since childhood. He is definitely not the wanted criminal Yang Chong." Ji Wuye argued.

It would have been better if Ji Wuye didn't know, as King Han was not sure whether the Yang Chong he was talking about was the Yang Chong who killed officials. But when he said this, his cunning look was telling King Han An nakedly that the Yang Chong from Xinzheng was the Yang Chong from Xiliu Village.

"Yeah yeah!"

"The general is right"

Upon seeing this, some of Ji Wuye's people in the court quickly agreed. It didn't matter whether what Ji Wuye said was true or false, they just had to agree. As long as they could discern and think, it didn't matter.

"Since the general admires Yang Chong so much, what position do you think is more suitable for me to assign to him?" Seeing that many people in the court agreed with Ji Wuye, King Han An could only hold back his anger and said.

"Your Majesty, the safety of the entire Han State rests on your shoulders. Because your safety is of vital importance, you must use the most elite and bravest warriors to guard the safety of the royal city. I believe that Yang Chong is a man of great martial arts skills and is suitable for the position of commander of Sima Gate. With him guarding Sima Gate for Your Majesty, Your Majesty can rest assured." Ji Wuye said.

"Commander Sima Men?" Han Wangan's eyes narrowed when he heard this.

As a royal palace, the Palace of King Han is actually a small city. There are twelve palace gates in the east, south, west and north, but among these twelve palace gates, the most important one is Sima Gate.

Sima Gate, as the outer gate of the palace, is the most important passage connecting the inside and outside of the palace. If court ministers want to enter the palace, they must pass through Sima Gate. If King Han An goes on an official trip, he must also go through Sima Gate. It can be said that Sima Gate is like the front door of an ordinary person's house. A mansion can have many doors, but there can only be one door that represents face.

The commander of Simamen was only an official with a rank of 600 stones, and he had no more than 300 imperial guards under his command. However, due to the special nature of Simamen, this position was of extraordinary importance.

What did Ji Wuye want to do by placing a wanted criminal who murdered an official at Sima Gate?

Han Wangan could already sense the full malice from Ji Wuye. Ji Wuye was proving to the civil and military officials of Han that in Korea, his words were more effective than those of Han Wangan. Even if he was a wanted criminal, as long as he surrendered to him, Ji Wuye, he could still become an official.

At the same time, he was also testing the attitudes of the civil and military officials in the court to see which minister supported him and which minister did not. He was forcing the civil and military officials in the court to take sides.

Of course, it was just a position of Simamen leader. Even if some people chose to support Ji Wuye, they could not be considered Ji Wuye's people. But for some things, once there is a first time, there will be a second time, a third time, until it becomes a habit after countless times.

Sure enough, as Ji Wuye spoke of his plan, a quarrel broke out in the court. Amid the noise, Ji Wuye looked smug, Zhang Kaidi was angry, and Han Wangan had a gloomy look on his face.

Ji Wuye looked at the quarreling ministers and memorized their names one by one in his mind. When the time was almost up, he spoke: "Your Majesty, since there is such a big controversy about Yang Chong, we should discuss this matter later. However, the post of Zuo Sima is an important post in the army. Now that it is vacant, we should appoint a candidate as soon as possible."

"What do you think, General?" asked Han Wangan.

Under Han Wangan's gaze, Ji Wuye said a name.

"This?" Han Wangan was quite surprised to hear the name. He thought that Ji Wuye would take the opportunity to place his own people, but he never thought that the person Ji Wuye mentioned was actually his.

Ji Wuye wants to make a deal with me, exchanging the position of Zuo Sima for the wanted warrant on Yang Chong and the position of Sima Gate Commander.

Han Wangan calculated the pros and cons. The position of Zuo Sima was too important, but Yang Chong was too special. It was related to his face. How to choose between face and interests? Han Wangan was still hesitant for a while, but his hesitation only lasted for a moment. The 10,000 elite soldiers under Zuo Sima were too important to Han Wangan. Although Yang Chong's existence was a bit embarrassing, he could only endure it.

"General, your idea is brilliant." This was all Han Wangan could say. He had no choice but to accept Ji Wuye's deal.

Chapter 90 There are too many pitiful people in the world, I just want you not to be pitiful

In the face and interests, although Han Wangan chose interests, his face still hurt. In recent years, Ji Wuye has become more and more rampant. He has even publicly said that this Yang is not that Yang. Who does he think he is? Does he think he is one of those famous people?

Han Wangan, who was in a depressed mood, threw away the bamboo slips in his hand irritably. He had no interest in reading these things today.

The heavy bamboo slips fell on the wooden floor with a dull sound, which was so harsh in the dead silence of the hall. At this moment, a small white boot kicked up the bamboo slips with the movement of its owner and caught it steadily in the hand.

"Father, who made you angry? I'll go and help you teach him a lesson." A young girl asked in a childish and vicious voice, holding the bamboo slips in her hand.

At this time, a girl in a pink flowing dress appeared. She had beautiful black hair in a bun, cherry red lips, and long and thick eyelashes that trembled with her big, lively eyes, adding a bit of vitality to her girlish look. Overall, she looked pink and chubby.

"Honglian, as a girl, don't always think about teaching this and that a lesson. You are a princess and you must learn to be gentle." Han Wangan looked at the girl in front of him. Although he was saying words of teaching, a smile was already on his fat face.

The girl in front of him was his youngest daughter Honglian. The innocent Honglian was also Han Wangan’s favorite child.

"Why should I learn those things? Father, who made you angry? Is it that ugly Ji Wuye again?" Honglian ran to King Han and knelt down.

"Who else could it be but him? This great general is becoming more and more presumptuous." Han Wangan sighed. He would never act like this in front of others, but Honglian was a special existence.

Just when Honglian was about to ask about the details, Han Wangan took the initiative to change the subject and said, "Have you completed your studies today?"

Hearing Han Wangan's words, Honglian's rosy little face instantly fell. As a Korean princess, although she enjoyed the best material living conditions, she also had the most extensive schoolwork. She had to learn everything, and studying was exactly what she disliked the most. Of course, to be more precise, it was learning etiquette, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, accounting, housekeeping and the like. She didn't like these things at all, but it was precisely these things she didn't like that she had to learn, and she was miserable because of this.

"Not yet." Honglian said with a sad face.

Honglian, who had finally escaped from her father's preaching, walked out of the palace with a gloomy look on her face. However, she did not return to her bedroom, but went to a different place. She wanted to find out what had happened in the court today.

Not long after, the apple of Han Wangan's eye returned to her bedroom with a head full of information. A lot of things happened in the court today, and she couldn't make sense of them all for a while.

"Ji Wuye, Yang Chong, Zuo Sima, and Sima Gate Commander?" Honglian knelt behind the desk, writing and drawing on a scroll of bamboo slips, trying to review everything that happened in the court today.

"I understand." I don't know how long it took, but Honglian, who had a layer of sweat on his forehead due to thinking hard, excitedly threw down the pen in his hand, and two excited blushes spread on his cheeks.

"The root of everything lies with Yang Chong. My father's depression is also caused by him. I am so smart. Yang Chong, just wait for me, I will help my father get revenge." Honglian said to herself excitedly. If she couldn't deal with Ji Wuye, could she not teach a small Simamen commander a lesson?

……

Compared to Han Wangan's depression, Ji Wuye was in a much better mood. He successfully arranged Yang Chong at Sima Gate. From then on, every time he went to court, when the civil and military officials of Han passed by Sima Gate and saw Yang Chong, they would think that Yang Chong was arranged by him. They would realize that in Han, his words were more effective than Han Wangan's.

Ji Wuye was very satisfied with his own move and worked very efficiently. The Jade Tiger had just cleaned up the house promised to Yang Chong, and he had already delivered the official uniform, armor and seal of Commander Sima Men. At this time, Yang Chong had just arrived at his new home.

"Are these the things you have been planning these days?" Yan Lingji unfolded the well-made official uniform and shook it casually. The quality was quite good.

"Is it okay?" Yang Chong said carelessly as he sat by the window.

"What have you done? You actually let Ji Wuye give you a house and an official position." Yan Lingji asked curiously.

"I helped him kill a person who he wanted to kill, could kill, but was difficult to kill." Yang Chong said.

"Who is it?" Yan Lingji folded her official uniform and put it back, then walked to Yang Chong, leaning against the windowsill and asked.

"Left Sima Liu Yi." A name came out of Yang Chong's mouth.

"How did you kill this person who Ji Wuye wanted to kill, could kill, but was difficult to kill?" Yan Lingji asked. She used to be a killer and was familiar with the relevant business.

"It's very simple, just killing someone with a borrowed knife..." As Yang Chong narrated, a perfect murder plan unfolded in front of Yan Lingji.

"Can it be like this?" After listening to Yang Chong's story, Yan Lingji fell into silence. There was a different meaning in her eyes when she looked at Yang Chong. She felt a little scared when she thought about this method of killing by controlling people's hearts.

"How about it, is my plan to kill people perfect?" Yang Chong showed off.

"It's perfect, but Mrs. Hu is so pitiful. A woman was framed by you like this, and two men died directly." Yan Lingji said.

"Do you also feel pity for Mrs. Hu?" Yang Chong asked.

"Isn't she pitiful?" asked Yan Lingji.

"Do you think I did something wrong and shouldn't have taken advantage of Mrs. Hu like this?" Yang Chong looked at Yan Lingji and said. Yan Lingji has now learned to be truly gentle, and perhaps her concepts have changed a little. After all, people have the ability to empathize.

"No." Yan Lingji hesitated when she heard that, but only for a moment, and then she became determined.

"Really? Actually, you don't have to filter my thoughts. I also know that my methods were really dirty, and Madam Hu is indeed innocent." Yang Chong said. It was fortunate or unfortunate that Madam Hu, that unlucky woman, met him, and Yang Chong didn't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but the reality could only be like this. At most, Yang Chong would compensate her for everything in the future.

"There are many innocent people and many pitiful people in this world, but I just want you not to be pitiful." Yan Lingji sighed, but her eyes were full of determination.

Looking up at Yan Lingji leaning on the windowsill, Yang Chong was slightly startled. A warm current slowly passed through his heart. This was Yan Lingji, the Yan Lingji who only belonged to her. The words "I just want you not to be pitiful" made Yang Chong feel that she was seduced by Yan Lingji this time.

Compared to Yan Lingji's charm and enchantment, Yan Lingji's ordinary words just now touched Yang Chong even more. At this moment, Yang Chong believed that even if he had enemies all over the world, Yan Lingji would stand firmly by his side.

"None of us will become pitiful people." Yang Chong said. Everything he did now was to be able to control his own destiny.

Yan Lingji looked down at Yang Chong, and suddenly a cunning look emerged. She asked, "Mrs. Hu is so pitiful, don't you comfort her properly?"

"Of course I am comforted." Yang Chong admitted directly.

"How did you comfort her? Tell me." Yan Lingji asked curiously.

"Do you want to know so much?" Yang Chong said with ill intention.

"Of course, tell me quickly." Yan Lingji leaned down and pretended to listen.

"That's how you comfort her." When Yan Lingji bent down, Yang Chong suddenly stood up and held Yan Lingji directly on the windowsill.

"Is that so?" Yan Lingji's eyes flashed, she already understood.

Just as Yang Chong was about to take a step further, Tian Mi suddenly walked in. Seeing the two people squeezed on the windowsill, she was not surprised at all. She said with a gentle smile on her face, "Master, the bedroom has been cleaned up."

"Let's go and take a look." Yan Lingji pushed Yang Chong away and walked out.

Seeing this, Yang Chong had no choice but to follow. When passing by Tian Mi, he slapped her on the butt. It was really tactless. Couldn't he have come a little later?

Tian Mi, who was in danger of being attacked, quickly covered her back. Even though she had other intentions towards Yang Chong, she was still shy as a young girl. However, she quickly remembered her plan, and a hint of reluctance appeared in her instinctive shyness, which was something more interesting than pure seduction.

Yang Chong smiled knowingly upon seeing this and had already caught up with Yan Lingji.

Tian Mi looked at the backs of Yang Chong and Yan Lingji and clenched her fists in her sleeves.

"That's it, that's it, Tian Mi, your plan will surely come true." Tian Mi encouraged herself. Even though she had become a slave, Tian Mi believed that one day she would counterattack and reach the pinnacle of her life, making all those who had looked down on her fall at her feet.

The three of them turned along the corridor, walked past the wall, and came to the backyard. This house was not big, with only three courtyards, but it was exquisite and just right for Yang Chong now. It was most suitable for him and Yan Lingji to live in their own world of two. Living together would start from here. As for before, it was not their home.

"This room is nice. It will belong to me from now on." Yan Lingji pushed open the door and saw a world as red as fire. Bright red silk was made into exquisite curtains, which fell from the beams and fluttered in the wind that blew into the room like burning flames.

"I think it's not bad. We will live here from now on." Yang Chong said.

"It's me." Yan Lingji emphasized. Although there is only one letter difference between "I" and "we", the difference between them is huge.

"What's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours." Yang Chong will not back down.

Chapter 91 Two Idiots (Seventh Day of the Evening)

Zi Lan Xuan was the most well-informed place in Xinzheng. What happened in the court of King Han's palace during the day quickly spread among the guests of Zi Lan Xuan. Zi Nu, the owner, naturally also got the news. Moreover, as she had other channels of information, she knew more than most people.

"Yang Chong, I didn't expect that he would actually defect to Ji Wuye, the commander of Sima Sect. Haha, he has completely boarded Ji Wuye's pirate ship this time, and he can only go down this path until the end." Zi Nu said slowly while adjusting a copper incense burner.

The young man who gave her a wreath by the Wei River left a very deep impression on her. At that moment, Zi Nu knew that a ripple had been stirred in her usually calm heart. Later, when she noticed Yang Chong's whereabouts in front of the Xinzheng city gate, she vaguely realized that Yang Chong was not as simple as she had imagined. But Yang Chong had now joined Ji Wuye, which made her feel a little regretful.

"Yang Chong? The Yang Chong from Xiliu Village?" Amidst Zi Nu's sigh, Wei Zhuang, who was standing by the window, took the initiative to ask a question, which surprised Zi Nu.

"Now he is Yang Chong from Xinzheng. Ji Wuye is really good at using his tricks to confuse right and wrong and to use his power to overwhelm others." Zi Nu smiled with a hint of sarcasm.

"If it really is him, that would be wonderful." After hearing Zi Nu's answer, Wei Zhuang was sure that whether it was Yang Chong from Xiliu Village or Yang Chong from Xinzheng, they were both the Yang Chong he met in Weijia Village.

"Why, you know him?" Zi Nu was startled when she heard this. Who is Wei Zhuang? He is the contemporary successor of Zongheng and a disciple of Guigu. And what about Yang Chong? He is just a young man from the countryside who has had some adventures. How could such a person have any connection with Wei Zhuang? And from what Wei Zhuang said, the relationship between the two is not as simple as a chance encounter.

"If it really is him, then Ji Wuye would be in danger. He is a real madman." Wei Zhuang recalled.

Yang Chong of Weijiazhuang was very weak, but Yang Chong's behavior of counterattacking Luo Wang's murderous intent left a deep impression on him. That kind of mentality and madness, although Yang Chong was a little weak at that time, was also worthy of his attention. What's more, Yang Chong's martial arts at that time were not weak, but he was not as good as disciples of famous masters like them.

Moreover, for someone like Yang Chong who can plunder other people's martial arts for his own use, his martial arts must have undergone tremendous changes in the past two years. It can be said that Yang Chong must have made up for his shortcomings at this time.

Yang Chong, who dared to plot against Luo Wang and succeeded when he was weak, is very much looking forward to what he can do now that he has stronger military force.

As for Ji Wuye, Wei Zhuang himself looked down on him, and he didn't think Yang Chong was really willing to serve under Ji Wuye.

"Madman?" Zi Nu pondered, interweaving the descriptions of Yang Chong and Wei Zhuang who sent her flowers in her mind. Even with her wisdom, she could not combine the two together no matter what. They were two completely different images.

"A madman who was able to count the former Grand Chancellor of Wei State, three Luowang's top assassins, and our fellow disciples as well." Wei Zhuang said.

"Is there really such a person? Is Yang Chong really so powerful?" Zi Nu said with emotion.

"He was very weak at that time. I can guarantee that I can kill him within ten swords." Wei Zhuang said. When Yang Chong first fought with Jiang Junbi, he had to exchange injuries with each other. In the end, he won by strategy. At that time, Wei Zhuang knew that Yang Chong's martial arts was not high. But even so, he absorbed the enemy's power in battle. In the end, Yanri, whom he and his senior brother had barely defeated, had most of his power absorbed by Yang Chong. At that time, Yang Chong was already qualified for him to take seriously.

"What about now?" Zi Nu asked. Wei Zhuang was her good friend, so she naturally knew how arrogant Wei Zhuang was. Yang Chong must have some abilities that she didn't know about for Wei Zhuang to look at him with admiration.

"My senior brother once said that as long as Yang Chong doesn't die, he can become our best opponent within three years, and I think so too." Wei Zhuang said.

"So you are saying Ji Wuye is in danger?" Zi Nu asked.

“Yes, Ji Wuye cannot control someone like him, and he will never be inferior to anyone.” Wei Zhuang said as he looked at the shark-tooth sword beside him. It had almost stopped moving, and it needed a good opponent.

"So, he has other intentions in joining Ji Wuye?" Zi Nu said.

"It must be. Xinzheng will become more lively in the future." Wei Zhuang said. He was ready. It was time to meet Yang Chong's old acquaintance. He just didn't know what surprise Yang Chong would bring him this time.

"Are you excited?" Zi Nu noticed the subtle change in Wei Zhuang's expression.

"Yes, I have a hunch that even if I don't go to find him, he will come to find me." Wei Zhuang said.

Wei Zhuang was obviously overthinking it. Yang Chong had no intention of looking for him in the short term. The only person he wanted to find was Madam Hu.

In the Yang Mansion today, Yan Lingji was yawning idly after dinner until Yang Chong walked in. She sat up straight with a little vigilance.

The two had been arguing about the bedroom, and in the end, Yan Lingji got the largest bedroom. However, she was not sure whether Yang Chong would sneak in in the middle of the night, because in her opinion, Yang Chong could do anything.

"Aren't you going to practice anymore?" Yan Lingji asked.

"I have to go out for something tonight, you should rest first." Yang Chong explained his purpose.

"Going out? You look like this?" Yan Lingji looked at Yang Chong suspiciously. Yang Chong was dressed in tight clothes at this time. He didn't look like he was going out for socializing. Instead, he looked like he was going to do something secret.

"Aren't you going to look for that Mrs. Hu?" Yan Lingji hesitated for a moment and suddenly thought of someone, that was the widow that Yang Chong mentioned.
