Sui and Tang Dynasties: You were driven out of Wagang, but you surrendered to Yang Guang and were ma

Chapter 36 Lü Xiao: I am a barbarian.

The sudden barrage of insults from Lü Xiao left not only the Goguryeo people bewildered, but also the veteran generals.

But after realizing what had happened, they felt a secret sense of satisfaction.

"Hehe." The Goguryeo envoy chuckled, then suddenly realized, "I thought you Han people all understood etiquette, but it seems that's not entirely true."

"That's right, what kind of land of etiquette is this? It's utter nonsense."

Another Goguryeo person echoed this.

Upon hearing this, Lü Xiao not only showed no shame, but instead raised his head high.

He immediately declared, "I am a barbarian!"

The veterans silently raised their hands, pretending to wipe their faces.

Goodness, the way you're saying that makes you sound pretty proud.

Okay, shamelessness to this extent, that's the kind of person who's going to do great things.

"puff!"

Yang Guang was drinking when he spat it out.

This guy really doesn't play by the rules.

However, he also acted as a mouthpiece, saying some things that were inconvenient to say in person.

Yuwen Huaji stood silently to the side, feeling incredibly frustrated.

This Lü Xiao, he's using all his own words.

He was also preparing to retaliate against the Goguryeo envoy, but Lü Xiao preempted him!

"Hmph, I've seen it all."

The Goguryeo envoy snorted coldly, admitting that they were no match for shamelessness.

Next, we'll have a martial arts contest to see who's tougher, or if Lü Xiao's shamelessness or skill is truly superior.

"Not bad, kid!" The veteran general Yu Juluo with double pupils stood up, gave a thumbs up, and said, "What a shameless fellow, ptooey, what a blunt one."

I thought I was shameless enough, but today I've learned something new.

"Young man, whose son are you? Why have I never seen you before?"

Yu Juluo asked again.

He was not favored by Yang Guang, but he was treated well.

He rarely attended court affairs, so naturally he was unaware of Lü Xiao's name.

"Old Yu, this kid's name is Lü Xiao, he's one of the King of Kao Shan's men."

An old general had seen Lü Xiao declare war on a hundred nations in the imperial court, and he truly possessed the youthful vigor of Yang Lin.

"Lu Zilie greets all the seniors."

Lu Xiao turned around and cupped his hands in greeting.

He could sense that these old men, like Yang Lin, were former followers of the late emperor.

Those who have managed to reach this level must be among the Nine Elders of the Sui Dynasty.

"So it's one of that old man's men. That old man has been adopting sons his whole life, and he's finally found one he likes."

Yu Julu murmured.

Those who could be recommended by Yang Lin to Yang Guang must be capable.

"Thank you for the compliment, senior."

Lu Xiao quickly replied.

"Excellent, come to my residence for a drink another day."

Yu Julu patted Lü Xiao on the shoulder, saying, "He truly is a fine young man of the Sui Dynasty."

"Zilie, although the Prince of Kaoshan thinks highly of you, your approach is still too radical."

Han Qinhu's younger brother, Han Sengshou, spoke slowly.

They originally thought that the proposal from one country to a hundred countries was made by Yang Guang.

But it was only recently that I learned that the person who made this suggestion was actually Lü Xiao.

While youthful vigor is good, one shouldn't be too radical.

"What you say is true, senior. I'm a conservative now."

Lü Xiao nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"Looks like you've realized your mistake."

The veterans greatly admired this humble young man.

"Yes, I still think that declaring war on a hundred nations is not radical enough, and is a bit too conservative."

If I could do it all over again, I think I could declare war on all nations.

Lu Xiao said in a very serious tone.

"This young man!"

Yu Juluo had seen ruthless people, but he had never seen anyone this ruthless.

This young man, Lü Xiao, has quite the flair he had in his youth.

"Zilie, Ruyi has come looking for you."

Just then, Yang Guang interrupted Lü Xiao's nonsense.

"Seniors, just wait and see how I perform."

Lu Xiao said something to everyone, then turned and walked to the side.

He hadn't seen Yang Ruyi for some time and assumed she had gone on a trip.

Unexpectedly, it suddenly reappeared today.

"Princess, what is it?"

Lu Xiao said indifferently.

"Here, take this!"

Yang Ruyi took out a peace charm from behind her and handed it to Lü Xiao with both hands.

She has been working overtime these past few days to embroider this peace charm.

Fortunately, despite rushing, the embroidery was still finished before the competition.

Although her embroidery skills were not as good as Yang Yu'er's, it was still her heartfelt intention.

May Lü Xiao return unscathed from the upcoming competition.

"..."

Lu Xiao thought Yang Ruyi was bothering him again, but he never expected it was for this reason.

"Thank you, Princess."

He reached out and took it, looking at the crooked characters for "peace" and the misaligned stitches.

It must have been tough on Yang Ruyi, a princess, to have to do such a thing.

Be careful.

Yang Ruyi stared silently at Lü Xiao, her eyes filled with admiration.

When she first saw Lü Xiao, she was just curious.

Not only was Lü Xiao's armor imposing, but even the two whiskers on his head were quite amusing.

However, in her interactions with Lü Xiao, she realized that Lü Xiao was different from those scions of aristocratic families.

Young men from prominent families would fawn over and treat her with utmost respect when they met her.

In their eyes, besides awe, there was also a desire for power.

As members of the royal family, how could they not know the purpose of these people?

From that moment on, Yang Ruyi made her decision.

She was determined not to choose a husband from among the sons of prominent families.

These people are far too eager for power.

But Lü Xiao was different. Every time they met, he was very impatient with her and even uninterested.

The best choice for her is someone who doesn't try to curry favor with royalty.

Only someone like her could help her father, the emperor.

"Relax, I'm invincible, do whatever you want."

Lu Xiao tied the amulet to his body and said calmly.

To him, these foreigners were simply experience points.

This time, digging a pit to bury the foreigners is just a practice run.

He would continue digging and bury all his enemies inside.

"Zilie, get ready to go on stage."

Yang Guang walked over and spoke.

"Okay."

Lu Xiao shouldered the incomparable Fangtian Halberd, and the tiger in the distance got up from the ground and followed.

"Father, would you like him to be my husband?"

Yang Ruyi raised her head, smiled, and asked Yang Guang.

"I also have this plan." Yang Guang nodded, then added, "However, this lad is slow-witted and only thinks about making a name for himself."

Even a blind man could see the problem with how Yang Ruyi treated Lü Xiao.

But Lü Xiao just doesn't understand; he can't seem to break through that barrier.

"Then the daughter will have to resort to some tricks."

Upon hearing that Yang Guang did not oppose Lü Xiao, Yang Ruyi's mind immediately became active.

"Don't embarrass me."

Yang Guang knew that his daughter was lively and cheerful.

Although he also thought highly of Lü Xiao, he knew he had to take it one step at a time.

If Yang Ruyi were to run into the Lü residence and sneak into Lü Xiao's bed, things would get really interesting.

It's not only embarrassing, it's also beneath us.

"Wouldn't it be enough to just take down Lü Xiao?"

Yang Ruyi said indifferently.
