Gao Cheng heard the news of Princess Feng Yi's Yuan Zhonghua and immediately distracted, forgetting to guard against what was in front of him. Taking advantage of this gap, Li Changyi suddenly slapped him hard. Then he looked up and looked at him coldly.

Although Gao Cheng felt the palm wind and dodged his head, after all, the distance was too close, so he still received a slap. He stayed motionless on the spot, and Cui Jishu and Kuye were too frightened to speak. After a long time, Gao Cheng slowly turned his head, but at this time there was no anger on his face, he just hugged Li Changyi harder, raised his hand and stroked the smooth skin on Li Changyi's cheeks with his fingers, which made people feel even more frightened.

"The general is right, Gao Zhongmi didn't dare to take me as a bride today, presumably the general was also a hindrance, right? It's just that Gao Zhongmi is willing to divorce my wife, if the general wants me to be his bride, can he divorce the princess for me immediately? Gao Zhongmi is dedicated to me, and I am also dedicated to Gao Zhongmi, and I only want to marry him. Does the general really think that he can confuse sentient beings? I just don't like the moody, willful of the general. I heard that Gao Zhongmi is still the uncle of the general, and I hope that when I see him again in the future, the general will treat me as an elder and stop being so rude. It's better never to see each other again. ”

Li Changyi spoke at length in one breath, and kept looking directly at Gao Cheng with no fear. She always thought in her heart that Gao Cheng was just a yellow-mouthed child, and at this moment, it was also because of her father's prime minister, Gao Huan, who was in power, that he was so arrogant. I don't know when he will inherit his father's authority later, and even if there is a day, who knows that he will not be slaughtered by others like Zhu Rongzi and nephews? In fact, she didn't look down on this so-called general from the bottom of her heart.

Gao Cheng's fingers froze at the edge of her cheek. At this time, he knew that in Yecheng, at least in the hearts of some people, he was just a moody, random and willful milk child. If even the women were not intimidated by his majesty, how many emperors, clan relatives, and officials in the palace could really be convinced of him? He is just the son of the great prime minister Gao Huan, not the real "general Gao Cheng".

"In that case, it's better for you to wait and see, and get back the token in the General's Mansion in the future." Gao Cheng didn't defend himself, nor did he say anything cruel, he just said lightly. He finally let go of Lee Chang-yi.

Bitter leaf breathed a sigh of relief.

Cui Jishu felt chills all over his body. He couldn't be clearer about Shizi's temper. High prudence will be a great disaster. And Li Changyi will be the son of the world sooner or later. It's just that what kind of chaos and catastrophe will be in the middle, and who will be affected, is what is really frightening.

Then I heard a voice in the tunnel.

Cui Jishu looked at Gao Cheng and whispered tentatively, "Shizi, I'm afraid that the princess is in a hurry." ”

Gao Cheng glanced at Li Changyi, and immediately turned around and walked towards the tunnel.

The sun gradually rose, and the chill slowly dissipated. The road in the mountains and forests is winding and bumpy. The sun was not felt in the ox cart, and it was still a little cold. The car was exceptionally quiet. The ox cart set off from Zhonghuang Mountain and headed towards Yecheng. In the car sat Feng Yi's princess Yuan Zhonghua, and her husband, the general Gao Cheng.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the car was quiet with a hint of tension and unease. Yuan Zhonghua looked at her husband sitting opposite her in the dark. From leaving the Wa Emperor's palace and getting on the ox cart to embark on the return journey, the husband has been absent-minded and rarely even talks to her. If it is because she shouldn't have taken the idea to go to Zhonghuang Mountain to worship in the incense, her husband is unhappy because of this, it doesn't seem to be. In fact, even if she did her own thing, he would be angry, but it was not a big deal after all.

Gao Cheng tilted his head slightly, did not look at Yuan Zhonghua, and looked preoccupied. He was originally a person with a very strong city government, and it would not be so easy for people to peek into his heart. It's just that he doesn't have to be like this in front of Yuan Zhonghua, so he makes no secret of it.

What Li Changyi said just now pierced him deeply. Because he does not lose his relatives, he can also be a sect. Come to think of it, this is an effective approach. So at this time, he was in a hurry to return to Yecheng, so that he could hurry into the palace to see the emperor. The days of moving the capital to Yecheng are not short, and everything is gradually stabilizing. After planning for so long, the new policy of governing officials has already appeared, and it must be postponed in one go. The talents selected by himself can have their own positions, so that they can take what they think as their own thoughts, and only then can they truly be a general who assists the country and seeks success.

Gao Cheng raised his head, reached for the curtain of the car, and leaned forward, as if he wanted to give an order. But for some reason, he retreated, sat up straight, and turned his head to look at his wife, Princess Feng Yi, Yuan Zhonghua, who was sitting opposite him.

"Is Your Highness alright? It's really hard to work hard for two days, and it's too late to return to Yecheng. Gao Cheng asked.

"Husband, it's not that the concubine is in a hurry to go back to Yecheng, it's that the husband is in a hurry to go back, is it?" Yuan Zhonghua looked at him in the dark and asked, his tone full of displeasure.

Gao Cheng stretched out his hand to her and steadily helped her to sit beside him. He also turned his head to look at her in the darkness. Yuan Zhonghua suddenly stretched out his hand and gently stroked his cheek. Gao Cheng only felt a slight pain in his cheeks, and he subconsciously ducked back.

"The lower officials are entangled in affairs, and they have neglected His Highness." Gao Cheng found Yuan Zhonghua's hand and caught the naughty hand back. Only in front of Yuan Zhonghua is himself.

"Husband don't have to worry about me, having a husband is already a blessing for a concubine one day, I just hope that my husband can take care of the concubine......" She didn't say the latter words.

Gao Cheng didn't speak, just held her hand tightly in his palm.

Autumn in Yecheng is quiet and beautiful.

Since Liang Shi left, Emperor Yuan Shanjian often liked to look at the Ho Pond from the high place of Zhaotai Temple. In fact, even in the sunniest weather, in such a high place, you can only look down on Yecheng. I can't see the whole world, and I can't see Liang Du Jiankang.

Autumn is strong, and the days are getting colder day by day. The garden in the Wei Palace gradually turned from extremely thick green to yellow. The pickaxe pond is clear and smooth as a mirror, which is a unique scenery in autumn. The sky was also extraordinarily blue, so high, so far away. Emperor Yuan Shanjian looked up at the sky, and his heart was indescribably depressed and irritable. He is also a humble man who can ride a horse and shoot eagles. He is also infinitely powerful and brave, and he may not lose to Gao Cheng. But unfortunately born in the emperor's family, unfortunately forced to be this involuntary emperor in the troubled times. Now he can only be confined to this palace as if he were imprisoned. He didn't even dare to ride a horse and shoot a hunt frequently. Don't dare to care too much about the government and politics, and be cautious and cautious in what you say and do, even if it is a mistake, it may cause a big disaster in the future.

Lin Xingren, the regular attendant, stopped the little eunuch who was following behind him, and went to the Zhaotai Temple lightly by himself. At a glance, I saw that Emperor Yuan Shanjian was watching from the railing. Just from the emperor's back, he could see the loneliness and sadness in his heart. Although it was already autumn and the wind was cold, the emperor was still very willing to stay here. Because only here can he enter the memory, and it is also the best memory after he became the son of Great Wei.

Lin Xingren deliberately increased his footsteps, but he didn't see the emperor turn around. He also knew in his heart, and the emperor also understood that the person behind him was him. When he walked to Yuan Shanjian's side, Lin Xingren said in a low voice, "Lord, Lieutenant Gao Shen has something to see Your Majesty." ”

Yuan Shanjian turned his head and looked at Lin Xingren in surprise, "What is he doing here?" If he has a dispute with Gao Cheng, he shouldn't ask. "It's so cautious, so careful, that he always has to remember what he should do and what he shouldn't do.

"The slave didn't look like he had come to cry to His Majesty. It seems that there is something else that I want to ask for His Majesty's favor. Lin Xingren guessed. In fact, he knew in his heart that Gao Shen thought very highly of himself, and he might not be able to afford this puppet son who was supported by Gao Huan, even if he had a dispute with Gao Cheng, he would not come to the emperor to call the shots. It's just that he can't say that, it will hurt the emperor's heart.

"So what is he here to do? What else is there that must be given a decree by the emperor Lone? Yuan Zenjian was a little impatient.

"It's okay for Your Majesty to see you, listen to what he has to say first."

Yuan Shanjian suddenly slammed his fist on the wooden railing. Now it's not just Gao Huan, Gao Cheng and his son, but even people like Gao Shen are going to beat him.

"Your Majesty!" Lin Xingren shouted in a low voice. He hurriedly took the emperor's hand, but fortunately it looked fine.

There was a moment of silence.

"Let him wait in the Zhaotai Hall below." Yuan Shanjian finally commanded impatiently. At least he has the power to make Zhaotaiguan belong to him, as well as his memory.

Gao Cheng's spirit passed through the pickaxe pond a hundred times and went straight to the Zhaotai Palace. The emperor is not in the previous dynasty, not in the inner palace, why did he suddenly come to this remote place in the garden? It's not that he doesn't understand, it's just that he doesn't want to spend energy on it. Obviously, it's also because I'm in a very good mood today and don't want to care.

Lin Xingren in the hall saw Gao Cheng outside the hall who was getting closer and closer from the empty palace door. He deliberately amplified his voice and said, "The Great General is here." It was as if it were addressed to the slaves and maidservants outside, and as if it were to himself, for he immediately opened the door of the temple and went out.

Gao Shen in the hall was interrupted by him, and glanced strangely at this self-asserted eunuch, and then at Emperor Yuan Shanjian.

Yuan Shan stiffened when he saw him, staring at the temple door, as if he hesitated for a moment, and then stood up.

Gao Cheng was well-dressed and majestic, and walked to the front of the Zhaotai Hall with a swagger. Suddenly, I saw Lin Xingren, the middle attendant, come out of the hall, and I was not surprised to see him at all, and I hurriedly greeted him with a smile on my face, and said with a smile, "General, I miss the Lord very much when I haven't seen him for a few days." ”

Gao Cheng didn't stop at all, and walked up the stairs to the eaves. When I saw Lin Xingren, I knew that Emperor Yuan Shanjian was right in the Zhaotai Palace.

"The Great General stays!" Lin Xingren, who was chasing him, suddenly approached him and stopped him.

Gao Cheng was stopped by him and had to stop, but he still didn't speak, staring at Lin Xingren expressionlessly.

Gao Cheng's green eyes were deep and cold, and Lin Xingren couldn't help but tremble in his heart. The general's staring at him like this without saying a word made him feel pressured, and he had to continue to whisper with a smile on his face, "The little slave has something to ask the general to show him." He approached Gao Cheng, and while observing Gao Cheng's expression with great attention, he replied in an intimate tone, "General, the lord has been on the supreme throne for a long time, but there is still no master in the middle palace. The lord thanked the prime minister for his kindness and wanted to ask the prime minister to be the queen, but the prime minister said that it was His Majesty's family affair and did not dare to cross the way of being a minister. In fact, Lin Xingren wanted to make this kind of closeness to Gao Cheng, and even he felt awkward, because he understood that he and Gao Cheng knew in their hearts that he was not his person.

Gao Cheng frowned slightly when he heard this, and stared at Lin Xingren a little questioningly. Even if his father said such a thing, he didn't need Lin Xingren to relay it, and he didn't know what Lin Xingren meant. Besides, it is obviously an unjustifiable reason to prevaricate that it is "His Majesty's family affair", could this really be what his father said? The important thing is, what exactly does Lin Xingren want to say?

Gao Cheng thought so in his heart, but the expression on his face slowly became calmer. The corner of his lips smiled slightly, as if the lake was thawing, and the spring breeze was blowing ripples due to the ice melting, and even Lin Xingren was shocked when he saw it. At least because of his smile, Lin Xingren felt a lot more relaxed.

"The waiter has something to say." Gao Cheng said with a smile. Although his smile was so shallow, even Lin Xingren understood that this was a fake politeness that was not smiling. But after all, the general is willing to be so pretended, and he still has to make a grateful appearance.

Lin Xingren also smiled a little more flatteringly, and continued to whisper, "The general has auxiliary merit to the lord, and he is also the lord's closest relative, and the lord relies on the general very much in his heart. This vaguely mentions Princess Feng Yi, Yuan Zhonghua.

Gao Cheng was unhappy in his heart, but he still smiled and said, "It is rumored outside that the lord intends to appoint the sister of the hussar general Li Zixiong as the queen, and the middle attendant still doesn't know?" ”

Lin Xingren didn't expect him to be so pretentious, but he couldn't say such a thing, especially at this moment. Lin Xingren pretended not to know and asked, "I want to ask the general to show me about this matter." "He also had a sudden idea, and pretended to be extremely surprised." Isn't it the general's intention to set up the Li clan of Zhaojun as the queen for the lord? ”

Lin Xingren actually took the rumors on him at this moment, and Gao Cheng was particularly surprised. If it weren't for the fact that there was a real basis, and it was such a cautious person like Lin Xingren, how could he suddenly say this? Gao Cheng smiled and said, "If the Son of Heaven has this intention, he can say it directly, the Li family of Zhaojun is very high, and he can be the queen." It is said that Gu Anbo Li Huibo's beautiful appearance must be the Son of Heaven's favorite. ”

Lin Xingren just wanted to refute, but Gao Cheng turned his words and laughed again, "The lord once intended to make Princess Liyang of Liang Kingdom the queen, and things are not harmonious. Now it is also a good thing if Li Huibo's daughter can be established, and those who are charming will definitely make the Lord happy. The meaning of Gao Cheng's words said that Emperor Yuan Shanjian was a beautiful person, not a virtuous and easy gentleman at all. Not only was the rumor that the emperor wanted to make Li the empress, under the reason that Emperor Yuan Shanjian was lustful, but he also clearly said that he did not know. With Princess Liyang in front of her, it sounds very reasonable to become the cause and effect of Emperor Yuan Shanjian at this time.

Lin Xingren secretly hated in his heart, but he still smiled on the surface and said, "The general misunderstood the master. "This matter is not explained clearly, and the more it is described, the darker it becomes, and Lin Xingren knows that the matter that the emperor wants to make Li Zixiong's sister the queen must not continue as a topic at this moment. So he simply put aside the preface and said with a smile, "Didn't the eldest princess tell the general?" The lord wants to appoint the second daughter of the prime minister, and the sister of the general is the queen. What does the general think? ”

Gao Cheng's smile faded. It was actually Lin Xingren, a eunuch, who made this matter clear. He was greatly displeased.
