Chapter 227 I will return with thousands of horses and troops (37)
As soon as Jiang Tang left, Emperor Liang slapped his palm on the table with a bang, his face darkened.
"Let's go to the Queen!"
——
Mr. Jiang stayed in the palace, and Jiang Gan remained silent all day.
That night, Jiang Tang accompanied him to drink in the pavilion.
Jiang Gan drank a little hastily, and his warm face turned slightly red.
"Xiao Jiang Tang, my second uncle is useless. I can only watch the old man being imprisoned in the palace, but he can't do anything."
Jiang Tang picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, the strong liquor rolling in his throat.
"Second uncle, this is the Jiang family. Sooner or later, we will face it."
"Your Majesty, how could your Majesty do this to my father!! He still thinks that the Jiang family is a threat to him?! You just made military exploits for the country, and he immediately detained the old man. He wanted... to let the three generations of the Jiang family, All for Daliang, are you going to die..."
Jiang Gan drank too much, and the man who had always been calm and gentle finally couldn't help the anger in his heart. How could a few glasses of wine resolve the grief he had suffered for so many years?
"The emperor is ruthless...The emperor is ruthless..."
Jiang Gan murmured, holding the wine glass, and poured it on the stone table.
Jiang Tang was holding the wine and looked up at the crescent moon in the sky. He raised his glass and said to the crescent moon.
"Here's to you."
With the liquor in his stomach, Jiang Tang stood up and flew up to the roof. He put his hands behind his head, crossed his legs, and looked at the crescent moon in the sky. The light in his eyes became darker and darker.
——
Two days later, Jiang Tang received an invitation letter from the palace.
Princess Yong'an sent it to invite him to visit the lake in the afternoon.
Jiang Tang put down the letter and changed her clothes. Chang Shan rode a horse and sent her to Longnu Lake.
"Sir, it's going to rain. Bring an umbrella."
"Uncle Chang, you go back first. After this is over, I will ride back by myself."
"I'd better wait, old slave."
"I don't know when it will end. You go back first and take care of your second uncle." Chang Shan knew Jiang Tang's temperament, so he left a horse behind and drove the carriage back.
Longnv Lake is the most famous lover's lake in Beijing. Many touching stories of talented people and beauties have been passed down for hundreds of years, so most of the people who visit Longnv Lake are young girls.
Today, there are more than a dozen gorgeous painted boats parked by the lake. Those who can come here to swim on the lake are the noble sons and daughters of the capital. This boat symbolizes status, so they naturally compete for beauty.
As soon as Jiang Tang arrived at the lake, a little maid wearing a lake blue skirt came forward.
"But Mr. Jiang?"
"Exactly."
"The princess is on the boat, please go this way."
Jiang Tang followed the little girl onto an exquisitely painted boat, lifted the boat curtains, and the fragrance hit his face.
A long table was placed in the spacious cabin. On the table were exquisite pastries. The incense burner was lit. Opposite the table, a girl wearing a light red palace dress sat.
She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a charming appearance, a small face, very white skin, and a small figure. She was sitting there, looking a little shy.
This is Princess Yongan.
As soon as Jiang Tang came in, Yongan looked up first. When he saw Jiang Tang for the first time, he quickly lowered his head and whispered.
"General, please take a seat."
The little maid went out, and only Jiang Tang and Yong'an were left in the cabin.
In the quiet space, the smell of the incense burner made Jiang Tang feel a little stuffy.
"General, you look very young."
"This year is nineteen."
"You became a hussar general at the age of nineteen. You are so awesome!"
The little girl suppressed her admiration. When she raised her eyes, the admiration in her big watery eyes was about to overflow.
Jiang Tang's heart skipped a beat.
Suddenly, she understood Changsun Yuchao's difficulties.
