Chapter 20

Chapter 20

He Yunxiao was taken aback when he saw Yang Zhe.

Who was Yang Zhe, he naturally knew.

It could be described like this, if there was no protagonist Chu Fan. This person, Yang Zhe, was the brightest star in the entire Yinjing City.

At the age of twenty-three, his martial arts cultivation was at the peak of the ninth grade.

He is only slightly inferior to the protagonist, Chu Fan, but he is still good enough to stand proudly over countless peers of his age. He has even crushed the villain He Yunxiao by many avenues.

He is ranked fifth on the Fenglou Qingyun Ranking, and he is ranked third among young Junior talents.

Of course, this is not counting Chu Fan and Chu Xiaoxiao, two outrageous existences.

Especially Chu Xiaoxiao, this woman was number one in the world at the age of sixteen, which was simply the biggest bug that existed in the novel.

He Yunxiao cursed in his heart that the author was retarded, how could he write such an outrageous setting, even if he started practicing martial arts from an embryo, he would not be able to be the number one in the world in 16 years!

But there was no way to justify it, because this was originally the world of the novel, and Chu Xiaoxiao, the bad witch, was so popular in the novel that she was basically a rival to the eldest princess, Meng Qingqian.

Thinking of Meng Qingqian., He Yunxiao sat on the carriage and turned his gaze back to Yang Zhe.

Yang Zhe was not wearing the armor of the Imperial Army, but was dressed in civilian clothes.

His years of martial arts practice and his confidence as a martial arts genius made him look heroic.

In terms of appearance alone, in the whole of Yinjing City, apart from He Yunxiao, who dared to say that he was head and shoulders above Yang Zhe, no one else had such confidence.

The carriage slowly left the Spring Breeze Mansion. He Yunxiao sat in the carriage and saw Yang Zhe dive headlong into the Spring Breeze Mansion.

Strange, why did Yang Zhe come to the Spring Breeze Mansion instead of honestly following Meng Qingqian.?

He Yunxiao lowered the curtains in the sedan chair, clasped his hands to his chest, and raised his eyebrows in thought.

Yang Zhe was born into the Yang Clan of Hexi, a prestigious clan in the northwest. The Yang family was one of the best, having produced many warlike generals, and even in the Jianghu area, the Yang clan had considerable influence.

What is even more valuable is that, over the years, the imperial court has placed an emphasis on literature rather than martial arts, and the Yang family has made a decisive transition, relying on imperial examinations and producing many important civil officials. For example, Yang Xingguang, a second-ranking official in the Ministry of Works, was Yang Zhes brother.

Yang Zhe himself was even more impressive, winning both the literary and martial arts titles in the last examination, which was a rarity in the entire history of Qi.

The bumpy rocking of the carriage didnt disrupt He Yunxiaos thoughts.

He tapped his head!

Unless the girl Yang Zhe is looking for is Du Yinyun!

It all came together when he thought about it like that!

The reason the Eldest Princess had protected Chu Fan after he had killed He Yunxiao and when He Yuanhao wanted to move him was that apart from considering checking the power of Prime Minister Han, there was also the expectation of the martial arts genius Chu Fan.

When the former emperor died and ordered the empress and the prime minister to support the state, the two were somewhat equal in power. But after the current Empress Dowagers tumult, when she passed on her power to the eldest princess, Meng Qingqian, the Empress Dowagers side was much weaker than that of the Prime Minister.

The greatest weakness was military power.

Almost all the generals of the court, except for a few, were on the side of the Prime Minister, including He Yunxiaos father, He Yuanhao.

Over the years, the eldest princess has been able to secure the military power of the imperial city with Yang Zhe, but she still lacks power regarding external military power. She was absolutely vulnerable.

But the emergence of a genius such as Chu Fan made up for it. With such martial talent, if he were to join the military, it was entirely possible for him to become a great general within a few years.

If the Eldest Princess could get Chu Fan to stabilize external military power, then she would be able to turn her disadvantage into an advantage in the struggle against Prime Minister Han.

That is why, when Chu Fan killed He Yunxiao, the Princess spared no effort to protect him.

If one wanted to control military power, apart from supporting the generals themselves, collecting old troops was also a good way to do so.

Back then, when Chu Tianzhu was killed, the Chu family army was scattered, and dispersed into various ranks, but even so, the old Chu family army still maintained frequent contact with each other.

The three great generals of the Chu Family Army, with Chu Tianzhu gone and Fan Yu retired, Du Lie was naturally the only head of the Chu Family Army.

Now that Du Lie was also gone, Du Yinyun, Du Lies daughter, was the best connection between the various departments of the Chu Family Army.

Through a series of deductions, He Yunxiao figured out Yang Zhes motive for coming to Spring Breeze Mansion, but he didnt care what methods Yang Zhe and Meng Qingqian used to regain power.

In a word, hitting on my woman is a no-no!

He Yunxiao lifted the curtain and said to the coachman, Go back! Someone is trying to steal the wife from Laozi! (Notes: Laozi~ Means Master)
