"Sister, are you afraid?" Gao Yuanfeng didn't know about Zhou Feiyan's past, so he couldn't persuade him, so he had to provoke the general, "This is not like the courage of the famous Zhenxi general." ”

Zhou Feiyan glanced at Gao Yuanfeng, sat on her knees, put her chin on her knees, looked at the dark wilderness outside the city, and said weakly: "Yes, I'm afraid." ”

"You, you ······. Gao Yuanfeng was speechless. Zhou Feiyan was not only not excited, but also bluntly timid. How can you play cards that don't play by the rules?

Gao Yuanfeng couldn't help but get up and paced back and forth anxiously. If Zhou Feiyan retreats, his plan will inevitably be frustrated. Although it is not impossible to do anything, there will be many twists and turns.

"This woman really has no name. Gao Yuanfeng thought hatefully, "Me too, a big man actually pinned all his hopes on an unfamiliar woman, naïve and confused. ”

Sit quietly and think about your own mistakes. After Gao Yuanfeng reflected, his mood gradually calmed down. looked up at Zhou Feiyan, who was sitting alone on the edge of the city wall, and felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. Because he suddenly thought that the reason why Zhou Feiyan showed weakness in front of him was because of his absolute trust in him.

As the commander of an army, generally speaking, it is impossible to take off his mask in front of outsiders and show his helplessness and weakness. At this moment, she confessed her fear without hesitation, and regarded herself as her dearest relative.

She trusts herself so much, but she is using her, is it really good? Gao Yuanfeng hesitated. Besides, a manly man, who has made great achievements, does he need to use a woman without interest?

As for the so-called enemy, Gao Yuanfeng also knew very well that the real culprits of the destruction of the Qi State were actually his two so-called brothers, Gao Zhan and Gao Yuan.

Gao Zhan was so reckless in his military force that the national strength was empty. Gao Yuan took advantage of Gao Zhan's illness to seize the throne, which caused a series of domestic military disasters. Then, in order to consolidate the throne, he killed innocents indiscriminately, causing the monarch and his ministers to be separated.

In the hands of Gao Yan, the Qi State can no longer be regarded as the real Gao family, and the royal power is completely overthrown by Feng Chongwen of the Zhu State and the general Ma Duan. At this point, Gao's Qi State is actually finished. Even if Zhou Jun doesn't come, sooner or later, either Feng Chongwen or Ma Duan will take his place.

What's more, Zhou Feiyan bypassed Luodu and did not order the slaughter of the Gao clan. The girl in front of her, in terms of personal feelings, has no so-called grudge against herself.

yes, girl. Regardless of General Zhenxi, after all, she is only a young girl who is only twenty years old, and it is a bit too much to ask her to bear the huge pressure of great changes and fight with tigers and wolves in the rolling torrent.

Gao Yuanfeng slowly walked to Zhou Feiyan and sat down, putting his arm around her shoulder, "Sister, if you are really scared, forget it." I don't want you to be a king or an emperor. ”

Zhou Feiyan naturally leaned on Gao Yuanfeng's shoulder and said softly: "I'm not the king, what about your future?"

Gao Yuanfeng comforted: "I am a man, I should stand up to the sky and the earth, and lay a quiet ground for my family. It's not so incompetent as to rely on you as a woman to shelter from the wind and rain. If you want a peaceful life, I will give it to you. ”

Although Gao Yuanfeng inexplicably softened his heart for a moment, it was impossible for him to confess to Zhou Feiyan, so he said it a little tactfully. The family here, excluding Zhou Feiyan, refers to rebuilding a Qi country in their minds for their grandfather. gave Zhou Feiyan peace, it was a secret promise that after taking Zhou, Zhou Feiyan would be properly settled.

When he blurted out, he didn't think much of the ambiguity. Unexpectedly, these words sounded to Zhou Feiyan, but they became touching love words.

No matter how strong a woman is, she also has her own weak side, and she also hopes to have a gentle harbor to dock, and she also hopes to have a pair of solid arms to surround herself, and she also hopes to have a warm environment where she can completely remove her disguise and let herself be coquettish.

The royal palace, apparently, does not have these conditions. There, there are calculations everywhere, vigilance everywhere, intrigue everywhere, and power and profit. Zhou Feiyan grew up in Sri Lanka and almost never felt pure family affection, except for her aunt who taught her martial arts and the art of war.

Because of her aunt and grandmother, Zhou Feiyan felt naturally close to Gao Yuanfeng. At this time, Gao Yuanfeng's concern made Zhou Feiyan's heart overflow with honey. I really want to throw myself into Gao Yuanfeng's arms and roll.

But after all, they have known each other for less than ten days, and with the reserved nature of women, Zhou Feiyan is really embarrassed to be too active, so she just rubbed her head on Gao Yuanfeng's shoulder, and said softly: "You are a younger brother, I should shelter you from the wind and rain." We said okay, I'm willing to break other people's rules for you. But you are not allowed to leave me. Okay, okay?"

Gao Yuanfeng, an idiot with emotional intelligence, understood 'not leaving' as having to help her all the time, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. As long as Zhou Feiyan is willing to fight, he has infinite possibilities to achieve his goal. Before he achieves his goal, he will definitely spare no effort to help Zhou Feiyan. So without hesitation, he readily agreed, "Of course." As long as you don't dislike me for being a country gentleman who doesn't follow the rules, I will do my best to help you reach the top. ”

"Hmm!" Zhou Feiyan hummed heavily, "For you, I have nothing to fear." ”

"For, for whom, for me?" Gao Yuanfeng was stunned, was there something wrong.

Zhou Feiyan was immersed in her own world, she didn't hear Gao Yuanfeng's self-talk, she only felt full of strength, and she couldn't help but get up suddenly, drawing her knife to the sky, as if she was going to smash this dark night with a knife. Longitudinal roar, "Ah~ah~ah~······." ”

The whistling sound cracked the air, and the four fields were shocked. Inside the city, many people woke up from their sleep and were terrified. Outside the city, Lele and others not far away heard the sound and sped up, and rushed towards Haiyang along the official road.

The next day, Zhou Feiyan and Gao Yuanfeng's escort team, as well as the men of the Windless Pavilion, temporarily served as city guards to maintain order. Notices were posted all over the city, saying that Lord Zhou, the lord of Huofeng County and the general of Zhenxi, personally inspected Haiyang and found out that the county order Liu Dingshan had taken people's lives, embezzled people's property, and bent the law for bribes, which was a heinous crime. In order to appease the anger of the people, General Zhenxi personally brought him to justice and sentenced him to death.

Gao Wei, a villager of Gaojiabao who made great contributions in the battle of Zhou Chen, is now appointed as the new county commander. Gao County ordered a thorough investigation of Liu Dingshan's case of bullying the people and forcibly taking people's money. The county treasury and all the belongings of the Capture Sea Society were sealed to be used to return and compensate the victims.

The notice also wrote that the lord of Huofeng County loved the people like a son, and decided to reduce forced labor, light taxes, encourage fishing, animal husbandry, agriculture and commerce, crack down on bullying and domination, eliminate bandits and bullies, and ensure that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment. Wait a minute.

Although such preferential treatment of the people at the bottom is not unprecedented, it has not been seen for many, many years, so that the people dare not believe it. It wasn't until the Xincheng guards vigorously arrested and captured the members of the Haishe Society, and according to the results of the interrogation, the temporary officials went from house to house to return the original goods or compensate the families of those who had been forcibly seized by Liu Dingshan, that people were convinced that it was true.

After a while, the sound of firecrackers rang out, and the whole city celebrated.

Seeing people either relieved, or smiling, or even crying with joy, wearing civilian clothes, walking on the street in the high distance, asked Zhou Feiyan beside him softly: "How do you feel?"

Zhou Feiyan, who is rarely dressed in pure women's clothes, made a playful grimace, "It seems to be not bad." But there was some trepidation. ”

Gao Yuanfeng, "Why?"

Zhou Feiyan said abruptly: "It's just to return their own things to them, according to the law, it should be like this, they actually said that they would set up an immortal tablet for me." Besides, it's all you do. I feel ashamed of it. ”

Gao Yuanfeng smiled: "No shame, no shame, no shame at all." What I do is what you do, because I am both a subordinate and your brother. Everything I do, so to speak, is at your command. Zhou Feiyan likes to hear this.

Without waiting for Zhou Feiyan to speak, Gao Yuanfeng put away his smile and continued in a slightly serious tone: "There are two things that my sister needs to think about. First, the people take food as the sky. What you give back to them may seem insignificant to you, but to them, it may be the foundation of their livelihood, or their savings for a lifetime. They don't ask for much, they just have enough to eat. To put it mildly, live. I don't ask you to be good to them, as long as you are less exploited and let them live in peace, they will be dead set on you.

Second, governing the government is not governing the army. Governing the army, according to the law, it is easy to say, everyone is under your nose. As for governance, this sentence alone will not work. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there are many people who disobey the yang and the yin, and those who do not obey the orders of the superiors abound. ”

Zhou Feiyan said: "Hehe, when it comes to military politics, the limelight is the way." Are you reminding me to pay attention to surveillance?"

Gao Yuanfeng sneered, "Heh, supervision is useful, and the world has long been the same." Not to mention that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, how can you guarantee that the supervisors will not go along with the pollution? What I want to say is that your so-called rules are not inherently problematic. Is it really reasonable, whether it is a doctrine or a law?

For example, the strong country and the weak people. If you don't let the people live a good life, where will your loyalty come from? If the people are not loyal, how can they be willing to go to the country for the Lord? I think what the people think about is more looking forward to changing the master. Also, if the Lord is strong and the people are not strong, can the country really be strong?

Another example is to let it do its best. is like Liu Dingshan, who has merit, so he became an official. As a result, it was a mess. Do you think that if you govern the country, you can cure all this kind of people?"

Zhou Feiyan was taken aback, "You even want to break the doctrine, it's too big!" "'Strengthen the country and weaken the people' and 'let it do its best' are all from the teachings of the Fajiao, and have always been regarded as golden rules by Yanyu. No matter how reasonable Gao Yuanfeng said, Zhou Feiyan didn't dare to think like that. Dharma teaching, that is the 'heaven' of Yanyu. Overturning the teachings of the Fa Sect is not a simple break of the rules, it is a good thing to turn the world upside down.

Gao Yuanfeng said calmly: "What's wrong with the doctrine? That's right, it was formulated by the Immortal Sect. But in the Immortal Sect, they are not true immortals, and they are not all human. Judging from Han Fengqiu's performance, they themselves want to change. It is in this process that we strive to integrate our own set of effective rules as soon as possible. As long as our rules can make the country rich and the people strong, the Immortal Sect may agree with it. “

Under the influence of Ye Lao, the Immortal Sect of the Immortal Sect is no longer much mysterious in Gao Yuanfeng's heart. Coupled with the fact that he was promoted to the Cheng Dan stage so quickly, it gave rise to his ambition and made him a little self-aggrandized. In addition, Ye Lao relayed the words he overheard, and Gao Yuanfeng learned that the Patrol Master planned to unify the entire Yan Domain. The way to unify is to let the various forces compete on their own.

There is another factor, Han Fengqiu asked him to observe and report Zhou Feiyan's words and deeds. Although he didn't know what the Chosen Son was, he was keenly aware that Zhou Feiyan had a special place in some people's hearts.

What he has to do now is to infinitely expand Zhou Feiyan's ambitions and make her dare to compete for a higher position. In that way, it is very likely that the two sides do not need to turn their faces, and they can create a Qi country for their grandfather under the banner of Zhou Feiyan. Yan Domain, eighty-one dynasty-level forces, hundreds of vassal states, spanning tens of thousands of miles. If Zhou Feiyan can really compete for the position of the first person under the Immortal Sect and give the Gao family a prince, it is so simple that he doesn't want it.

Zhou Feiyan didn't know his twists and turns, and he was silent. She was scared again, not because she was afraid to fight, but because she was afraid that Gao Yuanfeng's ambition was too big and it would be difficult for her to be satisfied. I thought to myself: "Xiaofeng is not in the game, and I don't know the strictness of the level in the game." The sixth order is promoted to the seventh order, but there is a little possibility, and it is impossible to imagine the luxury of the eighth order. Not to mention disobeying the Immortal Sect. ”

Of course, this has to do with the asymmetry of information on both sides. Gao Yuanfeng learned from Ye Lao that the class barriers below the ninth order would be broken. Since the obstacles below the ninth order will be broken, why should it be limited to a small sixth-order kingdom, wouldn't it be better to fight for the power of the seventh-order and eighth-order. How to fight? Catering to the will of the Patrol Envoy is to become the strongest in his own strength and power. The method, in addition to martial arts, is to bring more people to their hearts.

Zhou Feiyan didn't know that the big change would be so thorough, where did he dare to expect too much. Moreover, even if she knew, she might not dare to think about it. Seventh-order, eighth-order, not to mention others, supermen walk everywhere, and immortals are not rare. I don't even have a superman level on my side, how dare I fight.

The reason why Gao Yuanfeng didn't care about the difference in strength was because he thought that Ye Lao and Xiang Ma's skills were unfathomable, so he underestimated the comprehensive strength of the seventh-order and eighth-order forces. The expansion of ambition stems more often than not from ignorance. Ye Lao's sneering attitude towards the Immortal Sect Saint led him astray. There is also the promotion to the Dan period too fast, so that the mentality is unstable, thus underestimating the heroes in the world.

Zhou Feiyan was hesitating, and Lele, who was happily strolling around, suddenly jumped over and pulled her, "Miss, Miss, come on, there is actually a good ready-to-wear shop here." ”

Zhou Feiyan didn't have that mood, "Lele, it's not that you don't know, I don't have any preference for clothes." ”

Lele pouted and said mischievously: "That was before I met a certain color embryo." Otherwise, why are you rushing to wear my most beautiful dress today?" It turns out that the women's clothes on Zhou Feiyan's body today are actually Lele's clothes.

Zhou Feiyan peeked at Gao Yuanfeng, was ashamed, and reached out to pull Lele, "Let you talk nonsense." The two of them quarreled and entered the clothing shop.

Gao Yuanfeng was stunned on the spot, "Is she really interested in me? She wore women's clothes for me. How's that okay?"

Before he could clear his thoughts, he saw a large group of squires coming with Gao Wei with a spring breeze on their faces. The identity of the so-called young master cannot be made public, in order to avoid Gao Wei's embarrassment, Gao Yuanfeng had to follow him into the ready-to-wear shop.

Lele was about to make a few jokes. Gao Yuanfeng raised his fingers to signal silence.

Outside the door, the voices of Gao Wei and others came to talk. Hu Haifan said: "Brother Gao, it's not a brother, I doubt your sincerity and intentions, but I'm just worried that the policy issued by General Zhou will not last." After all, she is the general of Zhenxi, not the local governor. As soon as she leaves, the new Shangguan may not uphold her will. ”

Gao Wei said heartily: "Brother Hu, don't forget, General Zhou also has an identity, the princess, the princess with military power in hand." "Don't talk about the county lord, but talk about the princess, obviously there is something to say.

Hu Haifan's heart moved, and he looked at Gao Wei with understanding.

He understood, but most people didn't. A squire said disapprerovingly: "The princess is not a prince, what can she do?"

Gao Wei was not easy to say directly because he had the identity of a county magistrate, so he gestured to Hu Haifan with his eyes.

Hu Haifan traveled south and north, somewhat insightful, and helped Gao Wei reply: "Brother Li doesn't know, ancient and modern, inside and outside the country, there are very few people who succeed to the throne smoothly in the initial world. ”

On the street, a group of squires who did not talk about the country's consciousness at all discussed the possibility of Zhou Feiyan's succession without scruples.

Lele was so shocked that he wanted to rush out to drink, but was stopped by Gao Yuanfeng.

In the souvenir shop on the other side of the street, a foreigner who pretended to ask for a price was also taken aback, and then snorted coldly and whispered to himself: "His heart can be punished." When Galway's group was gone, he flashed out of the shop and walked out of the city.
