How did such a good County Magistrate end up with such an unreliable father?
Although it was unclear what exactly had happened, just by observing Yang Bingshan's arrogance towards them and his obsequiousness towards Wang Butler and others, it was evident that he was a complete sycophant.
Under Yang Yichen's leadership, wherever they went, they were well-received by the people. They felt like stars, believing that their idol could do no wrong.
Looking at the current situation of the two young people from Ten Li Pu, the boy was filled with unprecedented satisfaction, while the girl’s trust in him was more important than anything else: "Xier, I will never let you down in this life, no matter what happens."
Emerald stood beneath the sprawling canopy of a centuries-old tree as the boy made his promise.
The falling leaves were vibrant green, more lively than drifting snowflakes, exuding a unique charm.
The girl's delicate, fair hand clasped the boy's strong hand as she nodded earnestly: "So do I."
Their gazes met in the air, flashing with the most beautiful light. The drifting leaves and the centuries-old tree bore witness to their vow.
Time is the best proof; it remained to be seen whether these two young hearts could smoothly fulfill their promises and come together.
After a long while, the girl looked up: "Wherever you go, I will follow."
Whether in ancient times or modern civilization, for a girl to make such a commitment required immense courage.
Her unwavering pursuit filled Yang Yichen's heart with warmth, enveloping him completely.
His resolve to protect her for a lifetime grew even stronger.
For their shared goal, they would have to make significant choices at life's crossroads.
"Yang Yichen, can you help me get an identification for Yan? We should go to the capital together; Master there probably has better knowledge and can help with future Imperial Examinations."
Yang Yichen's gaze remained fixed on the girl. Upon hearing her words, he nodded: "No problem. I'll take care of it when we get back. With Master Zhu's abilities, he probably can't teach him much more now."
"That's true; after all, his capabilities are limited." If he were truly talented, he wouldn't only hold the title of Scholar. Fortunately, this person had a decent character and an open mind; Liu Qingyan had learned quite a bit from him as well.
"We all need to be prepared moving forward," Yang Yichen reminded her.
Perhaps they would leave this hometown and start anew in an unfamiliar environment. He was ready for it; his greatest concern was still Liu Qingxi.
"Don't worry, I'm not as fragile as you think. I'm ready to endure everything." Considering her past lives, she has experienced quite a lot.
Building a house in ancient times was a bold attempt, facing numerous difficulties. Starting over in a new place may seem like a fresh beginning, but it is not; there are previous experiences and a bit of reputation to rely on.
It's certainly better than having nothing three years ago!
The girl's determined gaze and the confidence radiating from her made it hard for anyone to look away. The more one learned about her, the more they discovered her shining qualities, making it even more captivating.
He couldn't help but feel grateful that they lived in this backward place where not many people noticed her charm; she was still his alone.
The two lingered together for a long time before reluctantly parting ways.
At this moment, Yang Yichen was still dressed in simple clothes, dirty all over, but the smile on her face and in her heart could not be concealed, completely free from the panic and confusion she had felt before.
Meanwhile, a procession from the capital was making its way northward. The soldiers' blue and black uniforms added to their imposing presence, causing everyone they passed to stop and stare.
They carried an imperial decree to summon this talented youth to the capital, and the commotion this caused sent waves of excitement through the city.
In a grand and imposing residence in the capital, the Crimson Door was adorned with Circular Pure Copper Rings. The door handle was crafted from Pure Gold, and a golden lock carved with a Four-Clawed Python Dragon exuded power.
Upon entering the main gate, the bluestone-paved path gleamed brightly, lined with precious flowers and plants. Each blue Glazed Tile on the eaves was intricately carved with auspicious beasts, while the doors and windows were made of Camphor Wood.
Every detail was meticulously crafted, revealing care and showcasing the owner's status.
If one looked closely, they would notice that every leaf of those flowers and plants was well-maintained, forming intricate formations that emitted a delightful fragrance, refreshing one's spirit.
The tallest building in the center of the residence offered a panoramic view. A man dressed in a Black Brocade Robe stood with his hair styled high, his Sword Brows arched, nose straight, thin lips pressed tightly together, hands clasped behind his back: "Finally coming!"
He had waited for two years. What surprises would these two years of hiding his talents bring him?
The man's eyes narrowed as he gazed into the distance: "I look forward to it!"
This was one of his most important pieces on the chessboard; it was time for him to play his role.
The man was none other than Dugu Hao, who had been neglected. However, he had undergone many changes over these years.
Since he gained his own influence, he had proven his abilities through action to Dugu Han, earning more trust and favor from the Sovereign.
Accompanied by a series of changes, many officials in the court, who had previously ignored him, flocked to him like flies, showering him with various flattery.
The once dilapidated mansion had been ordered to be renovated by the emperor two years ago. The massive project took over a year to complete, resulting in the exquisite appearance seen now.
Upon arriving here and admiring the beautiful scenery, no one could imagine that just two years ago, this place was in worse condition than an ordinary family's home.
As his power grew and he gained the emperor's favor, he faced increasing resentment from people like Queen Wang. The two factions, which had previously been in secret conflict, were now openly at odds with each other.
Dugu Hao had the Yu Family as his backing, while Dugu Li had the Wang family and Queen Wang from the harem. The two sides were evenly matched, much to Dugu Han's delight.
Meanwhile, Yang Yichen, who had stirred up a storm in the court, was being courted by various factions eager to bring him into their fold.
However? Dugu Hao coldly observed the news coming from all sides and mourned for those who were jumping around. They truly did not understand the situation; their actions were nothing but a waste of effort.
"Congratulations, Lord Wang, on gaining another ally!" said a man in black as he cupped his hands in greeting.
"Everything is still uncertain; do not celebrate too early. You may leave now."
Without final confirmation, he would not make rash conclusions.
Nonetheless? Considering Dugu Han's deteriorating health these days, a cold smile crept onto his lips. Perhaps all he needed to do was give a little push, and his enemies would be doomed beyond recovery.
