Chapter 9: High Encounters Danger (3)
Gao Yang smiled lightly, "It depends on who is right to keep your promise." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Hou Niyu naturally kept his promise to his eldest brother and didn't dare to say anything. The eldest brother is as ugly as a black otter in Yuwen, so he doesn't have to treat him like a gentleman. The black otter took out the emperor in Guanzhong and trapped the Gao family in injustice. It is unrighteous not to remember the grace of the father and the king. Later, he went against the grain and killed the king, because there was no way. The previous time I went to Shaanzhou to pick up my Dawei Cangsu due to a natural disaster, but I had no faith. Such an unbearable person, why should the eldest brother take the promise with him to heart? ”
Gao Yang said it seriously, Gao Cheng listened to it with relish, nodded and smiled, "Hou Niyu is really profitable, and his insight is extraordinary." ”
Yang Su secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to relax and secretly peep at Gao Cheng.
"General, it's not appropriate to conquer Xikou at this time." As soon as the atmosphere relaxed, someone said loudly.
Chen Yuankang stood up from the seat and strode to the side of the map hanging on Gao Cheng's side.
Everyone, including Gao Cheng, set their eyes on Chen Yuankang. Chen Yuankang stretched out his finger and pointed at Hengnong, "General, although the river bridge has not been lost, but Hengnong has been taken, I am afraid it is not appropriate to rush west at this time." ”
The previous Battle of the River Bridge was a melee between the two Wei on the border. On the surface, it seems that Situ Hou Jing wants to recapture his land as the assassin of Yuzhou, but in fact, it is a big battle between the two Wei for the passage of key border places, and the key is the control of the chokehold. Whoever grasps the key rush will be able to gain the momentum in the future. In the end, the Eastern Wei Dynasty recovered Henan, took control of the river bridge and the tiger prison and ended in a complete victory.
Although Yuwentai did not dare to enter lightly at this time, it was not necessarily a three-year contract. In part, it was due to the lack of control over the Henan prefectures and the inability to make a breakthrough.
But for Gao Cheng, although the Shangdang army can cross the river bridge from Hanoi to the west, Hengnong stepped forward to defend, and there was Tongguan to block it, and it was not easy to enter the hinterland of Guanzhong. Yubi choked the throat of the Jinyang army going south to the west, and the situation was the same as that of the Shangdang army.
"General, I heard that Wang Sizheng had already given the black otter an idea, and invited himself to Shouhengnong." Chen Yuankang sent the news he had just discovered.
Gao Cheng suddenly woke up from his contemplation. Wang Sizheng's generals naturally know that according to Wang Sizheng's character, if he is in Hengnong, he will definitely keep it and not give up, and he does have a temper that is incomprehensible.
"Changyou thinks it's not feasible to go west just because Wang Sizheng is alone?" What Gao Cheng said in his mouth and what he thought in his heart were different.
"General, the black otter is suspicious, and he refuses to reuse Wang Sizheng, and has ordered him to guard the jade wall, but as a black otter, not letting Wang Sizheng go to Hengnong does not mean that he will not send another henchman to Hengnong." Chen Yuankang pointed to the jade wall again, which was the key point of customs clearance in the lower reaches of Fenshui.
Gao Cheng stood up and walked to Yutu and faced Yutu. "Changyou, I'm not worried about the black otter's henchman." The implication is that Gao Cheng does not particularly value the generals of Yuwentai in his heart, but attaches more importance to Wang Sizheng. His long and muscular back was left to others, and Chen Yuankang only saw his side face as beautiful as a paintbrush.
"General," Cui Xian stood up first. "Those who fight are comparably stronger. The Xikou country is poor and weak, and my Great Wei is thriving, how can I lose to the Xikou? The general's benevolence spreads all over the common people, and his trust and prestige are deep, how can this be compared to the Yuwen black otter? ”
In fact, Cui Xian is Gao Cheng's most useful person. This person is a model of Gao Cheng's selection of materials, which is deeply used by Gao Cheng, and he has also come up with a lot of good ideas. It's just that Cui Xian helped Gao Cheng to do all the things that changed the situation, such as legislation to punish corruption, boiling salt to charge military expenses, he himself was not profitable, but the country's plan and profit were in the long run, and they were all major events that were beneficial to the society. But those who have lost their interests naturally hate him very much.
Everyone didn't think that the general wanted to change, but because Cui Xian took the idea to pry the general again, he himself attracted a lot of infamy. Of course, there is the responsibility of infamy for Gao Cheng. It's just that when others were annoyed with Nu Cui Siam, they naturally alleviated their resentment towards Gao Cheng.
Gao Yang and Yang Su didn't talk much at this time, just listened attentively.
Gao Cheng no longer looked at the map, walked back to the big bed and sat down, and pointed down, "Let's talk about it, the husband fights, the temple counts the winner and wins." ”
Cui Jishu saw that his nephew was in front, he was not happy in his heart, and he was not far behind, so he knelt down and smiled, "General, what Ji Lun said is right. General Changyou's foresight is naturally not less. Knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, when the general is deeply respected, the black otter is completely lost. Although the Xikou country is poor and weak, it is naturally inferior to me, but the loss of the black otter is too arbitrary, and he even has to take care of the affairs of the emperor's harem, and I heard that even the son of Rouran, Bald Tujia, has a grudge against him, and the two openly oppose each other. In this case, Xikou has lost his allies and added enemies, and Yuwen Black Otter is an enemy on all sides, how can he defeat the general again? ”
It's a very interesting thing. The second uncle and nephew of Cui rushed to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the two Wei Dynasty and the internal and external advantages of the Eastern Wei Dynasty for Gao Cheng.
Gao Cheng actually knows everything in his heart, and since he has made a decision, he doesn't need others to make such an analysis for him. It's just that he wants to test it today and want to see who will support him and who will oppose him if he really sends troops to recruit Xikou. Is it really for it, or is it really against.
Gao Cheng leaned lazily into his waist for a few miles, looked at the few people sitting or standing below, and said with a smile, "I know all the thoughts of the princes, and the people here are either my flesh and blood brothers or my confidants. Naturally, I should take to heart what the princes said. ”
Gao Cheng said and suddenly turned his head to look at Gao Yang, who was sitting with him on the big bed, and looked at his thoughtful appearance, and said with a smile, "Hou Niyu, you are in the Shuangtang Office, can everyone compete to speak like me in Dongbai Hall?" ”
Gao Yang was stunned, and said very seriously for a long time, "Yang Changshi and the others don't talk to me about political affairs." As he spoke, he glanced at Yang Su. I don't know if it's true or not.
Yang Su lowered his head, as if he was ashamed.
Gao Cheng didn't look at Yang Su at all, laughed, and commanded for a long time, "Disperse, is Hou Niyu going home to see his son?" ”
Gao Yang looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
Gao Cheng got up and ordered someone to summon Liu Taozhi.
Everyone else knows that Liu Taozhi is Gao Cheng's henchman, and Liu Taozhi only recognizes Gao Cheng. Sure enough, after a while, Kung Fu Liu Taozhi came in and only saluted Gao Cheng alone.
Gao Cheng told him to go back to the house to report to the eldest princess, saying that he would go back immediately.
This command took everyone by surprise, even Gao Yang. Because everyone thought that it was late at night, he must have stayed in Dongbai Hall, not to mention that everyone knew that there was Gao Cheng's favored wife and Langya Princess Yuan Yuyi in Dongbai Hall. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he had to rush back to his house.
Gao Yang got up silently and looked out the window, it was dark outside. He suddenly thought, he didn't know what Yuan Zhonghua was doing at this time. Suddenly felt that someone was pushing him, and suddenly woke up to find that it was Cui Xian who was sitting next to him, and he didn't know when he came to him.
He looked at Cui Xian in confusion, and then heard Gao Cheng smile and said, "What is Hou Niyu thinking, so engrossed?" and they will not hear me call you. ”
Gao Yang was really defenseless this time, and looked at Gao Cheng with a red face, "Big brother...... General...... Late at night...... "He stuttered."
Gao Cheng took a step forward, staring at Gao Yang with transparent beautiful eyes and asked with a smile, "Who is Hou Niyu thinking?" The face was red. ”
Gao Yang was so anxious that he was covered in sweat, and said, "It's late at night...... It's time to sleep......"
Gao Cheng stared at him for a long time before saying, "It's time to go to bed." ”
The rest understood what was going on, and several people all looked at the two brothers nervously.
Gao Cheng left Gao Yang and ignored it, and ordered Liu Taozhi to come back.
After a lot of effort, Liu Taozhi came back with a cold body.
Gao Cheng instructed again, "Go back to the house and take a look in the courtyard of the eldest princess, if the eldest princess is already asleep, don't worry." If the princess has not yet gone to bed, she will be waiting for me, and tell her that I will go back at once. ”
Liu Taozhi took the order and left.
Gao Cheng glanced at Gao Yang, "It's late at night, it's time for the princess to go to bed." By this time his face had become gloomy.
The people in the Minghe Hall were all scattered. There is no dream in Mulan Fang. Yuan Yuyi woke up several times in the bed tent, but she always couldn't sleep well. When I woke up for the last time, I heard Tinu walk in. She is a very caring person, and she can tell who it is just by listening to the footsteps.
"Lady." Ti Nu called softly outside the tent, and she seemed to know with certainty that Yuan Yuyi was not asleep.
"What?" Yuan Yuyi asked in the tent.
Ti Nu felt a little strange, and when she heard the voice, it seemed that she really didn't know what she was here for. She didn't have time to think about it, so she only replied, "The general has already left." Then listen carefully and wait for the lady's command.
Yuan Yuyi turned over, and at this time, the sleepy Fang really came up, and only said softly, "Got it." And then there was no more to say.
Tinu heard no other movement and walked out.
Yuan Yuyi in the bed tent herself felt strange. She can be so calm and calm, doesn't she care about him? I still know too well in my heart that I can't stop him no matter what. She subconsciously put her hand on her abdomen, which was protruding but not so conspicuous.
Gao Cheng is probably thinking about Yuan Zhonghuasheng's Bodhi Xiaolangjun, right? If she also had a son, would he like her and his son as well? At that time, at least for the sake of the child, he will stay in Dongbai Hall more, right?
Yuan Yuyi knew that Gao Cheng's mind was uncertain. It was harder for her to get his heart than it was to ascend to the sky. But there is something more reliable than the human mind that will never fail her.
Suddenly, there was a loud "click" outside, and a thunderbolt struck.
Yuan Yuyi was really sleepy, unconscious, and fell asleep.
The thunderbolt shook so much that the entire Yecheng seemed to tremble.
In the general's mansion, Yuan Zhonghua had never slept, and when he heard the loud thunderclap, he somehow felt heavy in his heart, and he felt a sense of wandering and dazed, as if something ominous was about to happen.
Strange to say, I don't know why, Bodhi is very irritable today, and when he is not satisfied, he loses his temper and cries like he is frightened. I refused to sleep peacefully at night, and after sleeping for a while, I woke up crying as if I was frightened by something. After going back and forth several times, it was not easy to really fall asleep.
Yuan Zhonghua had already received a report from Liu Taozhi, saying that Lord Lang would come back immediately, and she was even less sleepy. Seeing Bodhi fall asleep on her couch and just settle down, she never thought that this thunderbolt would make her worry again. But fortunately, Bodhi was not awakened by this earth-shattering thunderbolt.
Yuan Zhonghua was afraid that the slaves and maids would wake up Bodhi, so he didn't allow anyone to sleep in the room, and she was the only one guarding Bodhi just now. At this time, through the dim light, I saw Ah Jiao open the curtain, half-exposed and never came in, as if she had something to say.
Yuan Zhonghua got up from the side of the couch and walked out.
"Is it raining outside?" Without waiting for Ah Jiao to speak, she asked first. Although it was already past curfew, I knew that there would be no idle people outside, but because of the difference in my mind at this time, I somehow became worried.
The curfew can't help Gao Cheng. Yuan Zhonghua remembered that Liu Taozhi was coming, so he ordered someone to tell Liu Taozhi and asked him to welcome Lord Lang back. That way she can always rest assured.
Seeing that Yuan Zhonghua had finished his orders, the room was quiet again, and then she replied that she seemed to hear a baby crying just now. And crying so much that it sounds like something's wrong.
Ah Ji is because I have heard other slaves and maids say these days that Kang Ji's son Shiro Asu has a little illness from time to time, so this is why I have an association. Ah Ji felt that if Shiro Asu was really sick, he should tell his mother. Yuan Zhonghua is the mother-in-law, and although Shiro is not biological, he is also her son. If something really goes wrong, it is a lack of care, and the housewife cannot be exempted from responsibility.
Yuan Zhonghua suddenly felt a little tired and weak at this time, she sat down on the big bed, and motioned for Ah Jiao to also kneel down and sit down under the big bed. When there is no other slave in front of her, the two of them often take off etiquette like this, in Yuan Zhonghua's heart, although Ah Jiao is only a few years older than her, but she was the young Ah Jiao who took on the responsibility of Fu's mother when she was a child, so she did not treat Ah Jiao as just a slave.
I don't know who called Asu's name, anyway, everyone in the house now calls Kang Jisheng's Shiro. Even Gao Cheng and Yuan Zhonghua called it that. Asu was born a very beautiful baby, with dark brown eyes that resembled his mother. As long as people see him, they feel that their hearts are going to melt.
Since Yuan Zhonghua gave birth to Bodhi, his mind is different from before, a mother's heart, the young and the young, and the young of people, and he is also compassionate to Asu. Since Asu is also her son, she likes Asu and treats him very well.
It's a pity that Gao Cheng's mind is not on Asu. Bodhi is a few months older than Asu, and Gao Cheng regards the two sons as the difference between heaven and earth. Perhaps Asu would have been better off if he hadn't been born at the same time as Bodhi. There is no one who would not love such a beautiful baby. Maybe if Kang Naning is favored, Gao Cheng **** will see Asu, and Asu's situation will be very different.
Yuan Zhonghua thought that people should take a look.
The spring thunder completely woke Gao Cheng in the carriage from half asleep. When Gao Cheng woke up, he suddenly felt that it was too quiet outside. Only the sound of horses' hooves came to his ears clearly, and nothing else. What about his guards? What about his minions?
Gao Cheng's heart was suddenly shocked. (To be continued.) )
