Maybe they were so focused that they didn't even hear when the gate of the courtyard opened again, and when Gao Yuanjun came in.

"Sister." Yuan Zhonghua was overjoyed when he saw Gao Yuanjun suddenly appear. She lives here in seclusion all day long, and almost no one comes to relieve her boredom, and she is naturally happy to see Gao Yuanjun. It's just that I didn't expect the couple to be broken when they were so intimate in private, so their cheeks flushed and they were very shy.

Gao Yuanjun also seemed to be aware. She is the same age as her eldest sister-in-law, but she is still in the boudoir, and she doesn't know about it, but she didn't expect to accidentally break through the private affairs of her eldest brother and sister-in-law today. In his ignorance, Gao Yuanjun only felt that his brother and sister-in-law were very affectionate. Unexpectedly, the eldest brother of the powerful Great Wei was deep and incomprehensible on the surface, and it was a different situation to treat his wife in private.

Gao Cheng saw Gao Yuanjun stop, he had already seen that Ah Jiao who came in behind her was very embarrassed, and it must be that she was unable to stop her. He swept his gaze over Gao Yuanjun, but said with a slight smile on his face, "Your Highness didn't sleep last night, and was disturbed by me this morning, and no one persuaded me, my sister came just in time." Come in and talk. Gao Cheng's tone was quite majestic of the eldest brother. He hugged Yuan Zhonghua and turned around and took a few steps up the stone steps, and then entered the room.

Gao Yuanjun also walked up and entered the room, and said, "Grandpa and Grandma are here, and they are listening to the imperial doctor's reply in front, why don't you ask the imperial doctor?" ”

Gao Cheng felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he just walked to the couch, put Yuan Zhonghua down steadily, and asked nonchalantly, "Which imperial doctor?" ”

"Why does the eldest brother ask that? Naturally, he is a doctor who diagnoses the pulse of the eldest sister-in-law. Gao Yuanjun was also surprised.

Only Yuan Zhonghua was sitting on the couch, half-sitting and half-leaning, tilting his head and watching the brother and sister talk thoughtfully.

The sunlight shuttles through the shade of the flowers, and it is a very comfortable feeling to be draped on the body. Gao Cheng pressed his temperament and walked outside through the corridor. It's rare for someone or anything to make him feel so depressed now. Thinking about it, I always feel that the Taiyi behaves strangely. And when there was no one at the moment, his mind was torn apart by this trivial thing that sounded inconspicuous to outsiders.

Subconsciously and without hesitation, he walked to his study. Without waiting for the servants waiting at the gate of the courtyard to come up and salute them in return, he waved them back, Gao Cheng did not stop, pushed open the door himself, and went straight into the courtyard.

His study is also a place to deal with court affairs every day. Ordinary courtiers did not have the opportunity to come to the General's Mansion to meet privately. The general meeting is not here, only important confidants can discuss it in secret. It's a small compound. There is a small house inside, which does not look inconspicuous. There are only pear blossoms in the yard. At this moment, the pear blossoms are in full bloom, showing signs of decay.

It looks like one tree after another is blooming very luxuriantly, but when you look closely, you can see that some of the petals are scorched. The flowers fell into snow, and the ground was covered with snow-white remnants. Only a very light fragrance permeates the flowers, and there is no loss of fragrance because of the temporary prosperity and withering.

Gao Cheng saw his father, Gao Huan, the prime minister, standing in the shade of a pear tree in front of the house. Gao Huan raised his head when he heard the voice and saw his son coming in. Originally, there was only one prime minister in this courtyard. I didn't see the princess Lou, let alone the imperial doctor.

Gao Cheng turned around and closed the courtyard door with his own hands, walked over slowly, and called, "Grandpa." He didn't say much, he didn't ask much.

Gao Huan was also impressed when he saw his son so calm. But he smiled faintly and suddenly said, "Anu loves to read now, and there is no murderous aura here." ”

"Killing Qi can fight but can't govern the country, and my son doesn't want to learn from General Tianzhu." Gao Cheng's call to the "Tianzhu General" naturally refers to Er Zhurong. Later, Gao Huan and Er Zhuzhao never received this position, and there has never been a second real "Tianzhu General" since then.

"The general is now also the father of men, doesn't he want to clear the way for those who come after him?" Gao Huanji looked at his son calmly and said gently. Only his eyebrows jumped slightly inadvertently, revealing that this powerful prime minister was in a somewhat uncalm mood at this time.

The words "as the father of men" knocked heavily on Gao Cheng's heart. He suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen the Imperial Doctor, and he didn't reflect it for a while, as if he hadn't heard it clearly, and he didn't seem to believe it was true. Does he really have children? Not only the first heir, but also the eldest son, it is the common bloodline inheritance of the Bohai Gao clan and the Yuan emperor.

"Grandpa......" Gao Cheng seemed to want to say something, but he forgot what he wanted to say, and he choked a little. Suddenly, he said, "The killing spirit doesn't have to be shown on the outside, it can be in your heart." And why bother to kill everywhere in the mansion. His mind was immersed in the topic just now, and his mind was a little wandering.

"Just keep it in your heart. But if you don't kill, they will come and kill you. It is close to the temple and far away in the pass. Gao Huan has hardly spoken so bluntly, and he seems to be afraid that his son will not understand this truth. Or maybe he also knows that he actually understands, but he is afraid that he will be soft-hearted.

Gao Cheng had already made up his mind at this time, put aside his thoughts, and said with a faint smile, "My son just doesn't want to learn from General Tianzhu, only adults are the ones who should learn from my son." Gao Huan naturally understood this, and there was already a tacit understanding between father and son, and they could each know each other's thoughts without much explanation. Tianzhu General Er Zhurong got carried away with the momentary situation, and finally fell, which is also the reason why Gao Huan Shang left Er Zhurong when the Erzhu clan was in power. To be a minister, you can be inconsistent, and you must be inconsistent.

"Lin Xingren's eunuch is coming every day, isn't he just here to visit the princess?" Gao Huan said slowly.

By this time, the sun was getting higher and the sun was shining, but it was still very comfortable in the shade of the lush pear trees in this small courtyard. The light and shadow sprinkled through the branches and leaves shone on the father and son, and from time to time snow-white petals fell. Talking about such a gloomy topic in such a situation where the heart should be peaceful and indifferent is also a rare time for the father and son to put their hearts in their hearts.

"Adults know in their hearts, but naturally not." Gao Cheng said casually. "It's just that he shouldn't have involved the princess." Gao Cheng suddenly felt a little resentful, but the little resentment that was revealed was quickly covered up by him very naturally. "The Lord has a plan, this son of heaven cannot be underestimated, and it must be compared with the emperor." Gao Cheng said while thinking, "My lord, think about it, Xiao Zhengde, the king of Linhe County, took the initiative to mention the matter of peace on behalf of Emperor Liang, what should I do if I am an adult?" Although the lord agreed to make peace, he left the princess of Liang Guo in Yecheng for several months without a clear will. The Lord has not established a queen, and there is no one who wants it, why didn't he push the boat down the river to receive the favor of the king of Linhe? ”

Gao Huan glanced at Gao Cheng and asked, "Why do you think so?" "The prime minister's scheming naturally doesn't have his own thoughts about this matter. In fact, Gao Huan doesn't want to test his son, it's just that he is older now, and he wants to listen to his son's opinion on everything, and sometimes he feels that his son thinks more long-term than himself. Maybe it's because he's more dependent on his son.

"My lord, the Lord asked Zhongchang to come to his son's mansion every day to greet the princess, didn't he want the princess to speak to the side of the adult? If the Lord wanted to establish the princess of Liang Kingdom as the queen a long time ago, why wait until now? The queen he really wanted to establish in his heart was his son's sister. Zhongchang has served the Lord for many years, and the minister's wife is the Lord's own sister, and it is really logical for them to be involved in this matter. ”

"I don't mean that." Gao Huan said lightly but unmistakably to express his attitude, and did not hesitate at all.

Gao Cheng naturally knows the reason for this. It's just that he was heartbroken for no reason, and Gao Cheng was silent.

After a long time, Gao Cheng said, "My son thinks the same as adults." It's just that since he has no intention of this, he must choose a lady from a good family for His Majesty as soon as possible. It's just ......," he said suddenly.

The lady of the good family that Gao Cheng said naturally does not refer to the high-ranking family, but just the son of a good family with an innocent family background. If you raise a high-ranking surname for no reason because of the establishment, and then meet an ambitious person, you will undoubtedly make trouble for yourself, of course you can't do such a thing.

Of course, Gao Huan also knew why his son was astringent, but he said very leisurely, "Emperor Liang has been in Jiankang for a long time, and he is old, but he is very soft-hearted and hesitant. If you weigh the pros and cons, harmony is an insignificant thing, and the pros and cons will be done naturally. Provoking disputes involves a wide range of issues, and they may not dare to do it sincerely. Why should the general worry? Now just envelop Xiao Zhengde. As for Princess Liyang......" Gao Huan glanced at his son. As a father, he naturally knows his son's temper, but he doesn't think that there is anything wrong with his son's love for luxury and women, and he also knows that his son is a scheming and measured person. "The matter of Princess Liyang, the general can make his own decisions."

Unexpectedly, Gao Cheng did not hesitate and said categorically, "Princess Liyang's relationship with her relatives is a state affair, not a family affair, and my son will definitely not marry Princess Liangguo as his wife." ”

This is related to the family and the country, not only the relationship between Wei and Liang, but also the relationship between Gao and Yuan, which seems to be a state affair, but in fact it is related to the turmoil in the Great Wei court. Which is more important, the benefits and disadvantages must be carefully weighed and trade-offs, Gao Huan naturally knows the profundity here, so he doesn't say much.

Gao Huan nodded slightly, and just wanted to say something, when he suddenly heard someone outside the courtyard door calling, "Lord Lang." ”

"Come in and come back." Gao Cheng looked at the door of the courtyard and commanded in a loud voice.

The courtyard door opened, and a servant came in, walking up and down in small steps, "Lord Lang, please see the king of Linhejun." ”

The King of Riga? Gao Cheng was stunned, this matter was too unexpected, Xiao Zhengde suddenly ran to his mansion for no reason to ask for a meeting, what does this mean? But no matter what, he couldn't turn him away, and suddenly remembered what his father said just now, "Xiao Zhengde is well encircled", and now it is a favor. Then he ordered, "Please wait for the king of Linhejun, and say that the general will come out to greet him immediately." ”

Gao Yuanjun was actually the first time he came to the eldest brother's general's mansion. This mansion is famous for its luxury and beauty in Yecheng, but Gao Yuanjun feels that it is difficult to match the fame today. It is natural for the regulations to be grand and magnanimous, Gao Yuanjun went to the eldest brother's mansion with his mother, Princess Lou, and went directly to the residence of the eldest sister-in-law, Princess Feng Yi, Princess Yuan Zhonghua, without wandering around. I just feel that although the houses here are like houses, there is always a solemn atmosphere. Maybe it's because the yard is full of privet, holly, and bamboo, and it's too gloomy, or maybe it's because the furnishings in the house aren't very gorgeous. But if it is said that the eldest sister-in-law is not favored by the eldest brother, it is not like the situation just now.

Gao Yuanjun accompanied the eldest sister-in-law to gossip for a while, and saw that the eldest sister-in-law had been sitting on the couch and half sitting and half leaning too lazy to move, and felt that the room was really gloomy and heavy, and the sunlight outside was good, so he asked the eldest sister-in-law, and instructed the slave maid to set up a seat under the privet tree outside, and the two sisters-in-law went outside to talk.

Yuan Zhonghua moved outside, and he would not be exposed to the sun in the shade of the privet tree, and he felt that he was indeed much more comfortable than in the house just now, and he liked Gao Yuanjun more considerate and intelligent, so he blurted out with joy, "My sister is really good-hearted, and it is no wonder that Lian Zhongchang is full of praise for her sister every time she comes." ”

Gao Yuanjun naturally knew that the "Zhongchang Servant" was the eunuch Lin Xingren beside Emperor Yuan Shanjian. There is only such a "middle attendant" in the palace, and he is the only eunuch who accompanied the prince into the palace from the Qinghe Palace. "Zhongchang Servant" was a special case in the Wei Palace at this time. Although it is a false title, Lin Xingren's status in the palace can be imagined from this.

Although Lin Xingren does not have the ability to control foreign affairs, Lin Xingren's words are the words of Emperor Yuan Shanjian, which is also something that everyone knows. Therefore, when Gao Yuanjun heard his eldest sister-in-law say this, he blurted out that it didn't look like a fake, so his heart jumped.

Gao Yuanjun suddenly blushed, as if he was a little shy, and said, "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of Yuanjun, how can Zhongchang know about me." If my sister-in-law laughs at me again, I will never come again. She tilted her head to look at Yuan Zhonghua and smiled, "The eldest sister-in-law and eldest brother are so affectionate, today is Yuanjun reckless, and I really don't dare to come again in the future." Her face turned even redder with that.

Yuan Zhonghua was also very shy by what she said, and turned his head to breathe, "Talking about my sister's matter, how did it involve me." She suddenly sighed, turned her head and looked at Gao Yuanjun with a smile, "The Lord and the Zhongchang Servant have mentioned 'Taiyuan Gong's sister' several times, and they all praise Sister for her thoughtfulness."

Yuan Zhonghua looked at Gao Yuanjun with a smile. She is actually very close to Gao Yuanjun, and she likes her very much in her heart. As we all know, Gao Changjun, the eldest daughter of the Bohai King and the queen of Emperor Yuanxiu, has the appearance of captivating the country and the city, and the eldest son and the son of the world, Gao Cheng, is the same as the eldest sister, and is also as beautiful as a woman who has captivated the country and the city. The second son, Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang and Gao Yuanjun, are twin brothers and sisters, and the two look similar, so Gao Yuanjun can only be regarded as a middle-aged person at most, and at most he is just beautiful and pleasant.

It's just that Yuan Zhonghua is the same age as Gao Yuanjun, and he used to see Mrs. Lou all day long when he was in the Prime Minister's Mansion in Luoyang, so he is much closer to Gao Yuanjun than with his eldest sister Gao Changjun.

Yuan Zhonghua's heart was hot at this time, and he said, "Sister, the lord and the middle attendant ...... talk."

Yuan Zhonghua's words had just begun, and suddenly the door of the courtyard was opened. Yuan Zhonghua was extremely surprised when he heard the voice, and he didn't know who was so bold.

Ah Jiao and the others, who were standing a little far away from Yuan Zhonghua and Gao Yuanjun, also saw the courtyard door open, and Ah Jiao hurriedly walked over. Before she could reach the gate of the courtyard, she saw that Mrs. Lou had already walked in, followed by a few maids.
