The holy metaphor represents the emperor's greatest order.
Every eunuch who travels with a holy metaphor is as if the emperor is personally present, and any high-ranking official or wealthy businessman has to treat him with great courtesy.
This time, Eunuch Hai came to the Yang family with a holy metaphor, which proved the emperor's kindness to the Yang family.
According to the usual practice, the Yang family must not only respect him, but also prepare generous gifts for him and send him back respectfully.
However, just after Yang Wu returned, he shouted such arrogant words, which instantly shocked everyone.
Not only Eunuch Hai and his party, but also those surrounding the Yang Mansion were completely dumbfounded.
Who would have thought that Yang Wu would dare to openly defy the decree? This was simply defying the will of the world.
Yang Wu's anger was astonishing, and the momentum of the fifteen hundred generals behind him frightened Eunuch Hai so much that he collapsed on the ground on the spot.
"You...you dare to resist the decree?" The little eunuch behind Eunuch Hai hurriedly helped him up, and he pointed at Yang Wu and said angrily.
"Skinny Monkey, tell them to get lost." Yang Wu said coldly.
"It's the big brother!" Thin Monkey responded with a broken stick, and then rushed towards Eunuch Hai and his party. Before Eunuch Hai and the others had any chance to react, he was thrown into the crowd violently, and he was thrown unconscious. At a loss.
This kind of overbearing behavior is definitely the first time in the royal city.
"Is Yang Wu crazy? How dare he do this?"
"It's over. The dignified Earl Shaowu, I'm afraid I will be deprived of my title of Protector General and even be beheaded."
"This is a serious crime of decapitation. How could General Yang Wu be so impulsive? Even if he is angry, he shouldn't be like this."
"The Yang family has been sealed off for a year. General Yang Wu should be young and energetic, but he should not be so rude."
…
Everyone around felt pity for Yang Wu, thinking that Yang Wu was bound to die. No one could live well after despising Huang Wei.
There were two "young men" whispering among the crowd, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that they were females.
Both girls are good-looking, especially the woman holding a white paper fan. She has red lips and white teeth, bright eyes like the moon, and skin like jade. Her appearance alone is extremely stunning. Even though she is now dressed as a man, she is still Nothing can stop her natural beauty.
"Sir... no, young master, he is dead, and your worries are gone. Let's go back." The girl who followed said to the girl holding a white paper fan.
The white paper fan girl wiped away a hint of complexity and said: "Look again."
"Oh." The follower girl didn't dare to disobey him. She responded and stayed silent, but she was muttering in her heart: "This Yang Wu is pretty good-looking, but he is still far from being worthy of a princess."
In front of Yang Mansion, two figures appeared on the vermilion gate. They were Yang Zhennan, Yang Wu's father, and Su Roumei, Yang Wu's mother.
They all looked at their son who was a hundred feet away, their eyes became moist, especially Su Roumei covered her mouth and cried bitterly.
During the year of detention, they suffered some hardships and suffered a little, but these were not the source of their most pain. The most painful thing was not knowing whether their two sons were alive or dead. That kind of suffering is not as real as a parent. incomprehensible.
When their son dies, their hearts die.
When their son is born, they worry about whether his son is living well, whether he will be bullied by others, whether he will be able to bear the sins... All kinds of thoughts will fly in their minds.
Now that their son has returned and has become even better, all their worries have dissipated and turned into infinite joy. As for the mistakes the child just made, they have selectively forgotten them.
Yang Wu also saw his parents. He had extraordinary eyesight. Even from a distance of a hundred feet, he could still see their appearance clearly.
The wrinkles on both parents' faces have become more obvious, their hair has become more gray, and they have become much older.
Yang Wu couldn't help but shed tears from his eyes. His heart felt like a knife, and he was so uncomfortable that he almost suffocated and fainted.
Bones and flesh are connected to hearts, blood is connected to each other, blood is thicker than water, and family affection is priceless.
Yang Wu jumped off the silver-patterned turtle, and all the fifteen hundred riders behind him jumped off their horses in unison. The movement seemed to have been practiced thousands of times, and it was extremely crisp and clean.
Yang Wu knelt heavily on the ground, smashing the ground into two deep pits. His head fell to the ground almost at the same time, hitting the ground hard.
boom!
"My parents and my children were unfilial and made you suffer the consequences of imprisonment. I apologize to you." Yang Wu said with tears streaming down his face.
After more than ten years of upbringing, it is extremely unfilial to let them suffer the consequences of being imprisoned before they can be filial to them.
Everyone in the Death Legion behind Yang Wu knelt down on one knee.
The master kneels, they have to kneel.
"The father, mother, and child are unfilial and have brought shame to the ancestors of the Yang family." Yang Wu knelt and walked forward for a foot, then kowtowed heavily and repented loudly.
He didn't use any strength to protect his body, and he knelt with all his strength. The skin on his forehead was bruised and blood oozed out.
Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei both cried.
The sins they had suffered over the past year seemed to have disappeared without a trace in an instant, and there was no longer any grievance or sadness.
"Wu'er..." Su Roumei cried and wanted to rush over to pick up her son, but Yang Zhennan held him back. He shook his head lightly and said, "Let him vent his anger."
Yang Zhennan was very happy to have such a son, and he also understood why Yang Wu had to kneel down in public, because Yang Wu truly regretted it.
"My parents were unfilial, and my brother was implicated and lost his position as the top scholar in liberal arts."
boom!
"The father, mother, and child are unfilial, and everyone in the Yang family has suffered."
boom!
"My parents are unfilial to my child. It is my child who has ruined the loyalty of my Yang family."
…
Every time Yang Wu walked a few feet, he kowtowed heavily to the ground. Small craters appeared on the ground, and there were still blood stains on the surface of the craters. He knelt very hard every time, and there was no A little bit of moisture.
More and more people were watching around, and their eyes couldn't help but become moist.
Some of them are already parents, and some are children. No matter what kind of relationship they are, they all feel the same when they see Yang Wu like this.
As parents, they don’t want their children to admit their mistakes like this to them. They just hope that they can be like Yang Wu and have the courage to take responsibility for their mistakes. They don’t need to kneel down and kowtow like Yang Wu to be satisfied. What they want is Not much is really needed.
As children, they are recalling how they treated their parents who raised them. They are used to scolding, complaining, and blaming their parents, which often makes them worry, let alone filial, and they feel so regretful.
Yang Wu dared to kneel down and repent to his parents in public, which will definitely lead to a good story.
Yang Wu had never thought about this. He only knew that he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, and he felt even more hatred towards those who framed him. The harm done to him was nothing, and the greatest harm was done to his family. , his family is his Ni Lin, and anyone who touches it will die.
"Master, I really want to cry." The follower girl couldn't suppress her impulse and said. When she finished speaking, tears were already flowing down her face.
The eyes of the girl holding the white paper fan were already misty, but she held back her tears.
"Just cry, there's nothing to be ashamed of." The girl holding a white paper fan choked with sobs.
This girl is none other than Princess Tang Xiaohan of the current Daxia Dynasty. She is the emperor's favorite daughter and the apple of his eye.
Tang Xiaohan knew that her daughter would definitely get married in the future, but she didn't expect that this day would come so quickly. She had only passed her sixteenth-year-old adult ceremony less than half a year ago, and her father had not asked her what she wanted. , he had already arranged a marriage for her, which caught her off guard and made her sad for several days.
After she calmed down, she asked people to inquire about Yang Wu's information, from his birth to the present, as well as the people around him, collecting them word for word.
After reading Yang Wu's information from a year ago, she gave him an "average" evaluation, leaving aside his incident with Tang Jiaoyan. This only meant that Yang Wu was not up to the standards she required.
She is a majestic princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, and she has been pampered since she was a child. Even though she is knowledgeable, courteous, and gentle, it does not mean that she will not be picky. On the contrary, she is more picky than anyone else.
Coupled with Yang Wu's incident with Tang Jiaoyan, she dragged Yang Wu into the "inferior" evaluation.
Regardless of whether Yang Wu was wrongly accused or not, he offended a princess, and had his house confiscated, the big crime was all on Yang Wu.
Looking at his performance this year, he rose from prison and made great achievements at the border, which can be rated as "excellent".
In the end, her overall evaluation was "above average".
This kind of evaluation still does not meet the requirements in her mind, but it can be barely accepted. The premise is how Yang Wu performs when he returns to the city. If it is passable, maybe she can only wrong herself. After all, she cannot let her Although she was in trouble for her father, she had always been sweet and sensible since she was a child.
Since Yang Wu rushed back from outside the city, her evaluation of Yang Wu has been declining again. She feels that Yang Wu is an impulsive young man and does not look like a young hero who can make great military achievements. How can he achieve great things with such recklessness
And after Yang Wu resisted the order on the spot and threw Eunuch Hai and others away, she was even more disappointed. Even though Yang Wu looked good, his actions were too radical and he didn't look forward and backward at all. He would definitely destroy the Yang family again. Bringing it to a point of no return.
However, Yang Wu's sudden kneeling made her eyes light up, and when he confessed to his parents from the bottom of his heart, she was very moved.
Although she had lived in fine clothes since she was a child and had not suffered much, she was well-educated and understood the principle of filial piety first. Yang Wu was a seven-foot tall man, a protective general, and Earl Shaowu. , Kneel down and worship your parents, this kind of kindness is commendable.
A man doesn't talk lightly when he has tears, just because his love has not reached the deepest level.
Yang Wu's evaluation in her heart instantly reached "Superior!"
