Presumably, this third branch of the family was being suppressed and ostracized within the clan, thus seeking to climb the social ladder in order to turn their fortunes around.
"Commander Wang, Commander Shen, and Yan Da, quickly gather the troops and then set off."
The three men accepted the order and left.
At this moment, a servant led Yang Lian over.
Yang Xun pulled Yang Lian to bow to Liu Wei.
At yesterday's banquet, Yang Lian heard Yang Xun say that he wanted Yang Gun to be Liu Wei's bodyguard. He felt envious and lamented his own humble origins.
However, Yang Gun got drunk last night and was burned to death, while Yang Lian was summoned by Yang Xun to accompany Liu Wei and the squad leader.
He suppressed his secret joy, but maintained a calm and composed demeanor.
"This humble one greets Your Highness!"

Yang Lian immediately went to knock on the door of Liu Wei's room. Before he could even raise his hand, a guard came out with his head down.
Yang Xun saw that the guard was handsome and had delicate features.
He immediately frowned, giving off a meaningful expression.
