The battle of the river bridge, the eldest brother and general Gao Cheng, returned victorious, Gao Yuanjun was secretly happy in his heart, and he was finally down-to-earth, which was a great thing for the Gao family, and she could tell the weight in her heart. In addition, the second brother Gao Yang has gradually gained a firm foothold in the court and has become an auxiliary minister, which makes her feel more at ease. But Gao Yuanjun is a very scheming person, and he has always been humble and humble before the emperor Yuanshan met him.

"What's the general's worries about? Do you want to ask His Royal Highness to take care of the princess? Xiaohu saw that the queen didn't speak, a little stunned, and she also whispered as if asking herself.

Yes, these words reminded Gao Yuanjun. The eldest brother Gao Cheng sent an envoy to Liang Guo and was already on his way to Jiankang from Yecheng. Before leaving, the eldest brother specially entered the palace to meet the queen in the Jiaofang Palace. And the main purpose of the resignation was to ask his sister Gao Yuanjun to take care of the princess Yuan Zhonghua.

Yuan Zhonghua is the eldest princess, the younger sister of Emperor Yuan Shanjian, and the wife of a powerful general, who will? Who would dare? Can it be bad for her?

Gao Yuanjun's heart was cold, he suddenly came to his senses, and blurted out Xiaohu, "Has the Duchess of Taiyuan not entered the palace for a long time?" Let's invite her to the Jiaofang Hall tomorrow. ”

It's hard for her to think so fast. The second brother Gao Yang's heart, Gao Yuanjun, also understands it best. Isn't the eldest brother's request just to prevent the second brother from taking advantage of his absence to find a gap to get close to the eldest sister-in-law? The three brothers and sisters all knew in their hearts, but Gao Cheng assigned this thorny problem to Gao Yuanjun. This is the most suitable person for Gao Cheng, but it invisibly involves Gao Yuanjun in the contradiction she is most unwilling to touch.

Xiaohu has been by Gao Yuanjun's side for a long time, and he is also a smart person, so he obeyed the order, and said softly, "The prince and the second prince are both the elder brothers of His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness is the most difficult in the middle." ”

Gao Yuanjun closed his eyes and didn't speak, Xiaohu understands the truth, why don't the two brothers understand? 's heart gradually became cold, because none of the eldest brother and second brother stood in her place and thought about her. And she can't ignore it willfully, if she doesn't mediate and balance in the middle, if something really happens, the entire Gao clan will lose everything with them. I believe they all understand this truth, but it is more difficult to grasp. The eldest brother has always regarded himself as the master and the second brother as a domestic slave, so he never guards against him, and gives him a chance with all his heart. The second brother surrendered on the surface, but he was not convinced in his heart, holding back and waiting for the opportunity to prove himself. In the final analysis, they are all too confident in themselves, and they all feel that they can lead the Gao clan to conquer the world. Only Gao Yuanjun can see that Gao's position today is high and dangerous, and since she is in this position, she will inevitably do her best.

"The general will not abolish the title of the eldest princess." Gao Yuanjun said lazily to Xiaohu.

Do you still need to think about this question? Princess Feng Yi Yuan Zhonghua is the sister of Emperor Yuan Shanjian, if she is demoted to a concubine, what will be the face of the emperor? If Princess Rouran is set up as the main concubine and lives above the eldest princess, how can Da Wei's face exist? This is a question that you don't even have to think about, how could the eldest brother do such a thing? Great Wei has no face, that is, he, the general in charge of the country, has no face. What's more, Gao Yuanjun knew very well in his heart the weight of his eldest sister-in-law Yuan Zhonghua in the eldest brother's heart. The eldest brother seems to be a clear-minded person on the surface, but in fact, he may not be able to do such things.

"No matter how the general treats the princess, anyway, as long as His Royal Highness is worry-free. The emperor of Naxikou listened to the words of the prince of Shuofang County, and really abolished the former queen and married Princess Rouran as the new queen. Xiaohu nagged, her tone was pleased, anyway, she was also a confidant who had followed Gao Yuanjun since she was a child. People like her have no power to control anything, as long as her master is good, she can follow the glory, and she can't care about others.

Gao Yuanjun glanced at Xiaohu, and his heart was full of excitement. With such a clear truth, why didn't she think of it before? Her ninth brother Gao Zhan took on the responsibility of harmony at a young age, and married the granddaughter and princess of Shuofang County. Shuofang Jungong is obviously unsatisfied, and has hinted many times that he wants to marry again, how can his father King Gao and his eldest brother Gao Cheng not understand? Whose turn will it be this time? Especially at the sensitive time when the two Wei are fighting, Rouran's strength is very important, how can it not be well encircled?

I heard that Rouran Khan's attitude was extremely tough, and the emperor of the Western Wei Dynasty had no patience to abolish the former Empress Yi Fu, and he couldn't call the shots at all. Gao Yuanjun was in a trance, if this matter was the turn of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, it would be her turn, then her husband would ......

Suddenly, Xiaohu raised his voice in surprise, "Is Your Highness uncomfortable, why is there a lot of sweat?" ”

Gao Yuanjun glanced at Xiaohu in a bit of a panic, and thought to himself, if Yuan Zhonghua is deposed, he still has the identity of the eldest princess, how can he say that he is also the emperor's own sister, and the eldest brother loves her in his heart, and he will not let her be wronged. If you really get rid of yourself...... She couldn't even think about it any further.

"Go quickly...... Gao Yuanjun took Xiaohu's arm and got up, just about to give an order, when he suddenly heard the voice of the palace maid outside, "Your Highness, the lord is about to arrive at the Jiaofang Palace." ”

Gao Yuanjun immediately collected all his thoughts and walked outside.

"The Son of Heaven hunted in Zheng, there was a tiger in the Jia, and the seven elites captured it to dedicate it, and the life of the East was stored because it was called the Tiger Prison." A few words make people think about it, as if they can see the fierce scene of the wind blowing the grass low, the tiger leaping, and the warrior capture.

Mu Tianzi is a figure that Gao Cheng has been curious and admired since he was a child. The king of the Western Zhou Dynasty enjoyed a long life span, and during his reign, he made great efforts, unified the four provinces, and shocked the world. What's even more amazing is that Mu Tianzi can also travel around the world while imitating the French and martial arts, traveling far and wide, and seeing and experiencing many interesting things. This kind of rampant behavior is probably what everyone will yearn for in the deepest part of their hearts.

Usually there is no leisure, at this moment, Gao Cheng stood in the suburbs of Chenggao at dusk and suddenly thought, how can King Mu put aside those complicated state affairs and achieve a state of lightness of body and mind? Ask yourself, if you let him put aside everything in front of him, he must not be able to do it. If you leave him, what will be the future of Great Wei? What does the future hold for Gao? Even at present, the reconciliation of the complex relationship between Wei and Liang is not something that everyone can do.

At dusk, in the spring countryside, the sky is getting dark. Compared with the prosperity of the capital, the wilderness outside Chenggao City has a sense of desolation. Recalling the magical stories and legends of thousands of years ago, it is impossible to sigh when we look back on the past. Gao Cheng is not a person who loves to remember, nor is he a person who loves to think about history, he always feels non-stop, he always feels busy, as if he never has time to be still for a moment to calm his heart and give himself a pause for quiet.

Cui Jishu, who was still as white and fat as dough, was ordered to send Liang Guo to Jiankang in Liangdu with the general this time. At this moment, he really sighed in his heart. The last time I went to Jiankang with the prince, I was so happy and willful, at that time, the prince was still a weak-crowned boy, and he could be happy by himself. Time flies like a white horse, and the son has become a minister of the old Cheng Mouguo.

The suburbs between heaven and earth have a primitive and obscurantist wilderness, Gao Cheng stands between heaven and earth, and Cui Jishu stands a little behind him looking at his back. His back would make him feel so mature and steady. The wide-sleeved robe was blue, a color that made him more calm and confident. The spring breeze blew the blue ribbon on his bun, adding some transcendent personality.

Cui Jishu also knew that at this time, the prince of the world was really responsible for Jiankang. The battle between the two Wei Dynasty Emperor Liang sat on the wall and watched, which was a good time for Liang, and he took advantage of the chaos several times to attack obviously to have a plan. What rhetoric can the prince use to go to Liang so that Emperor Liang can be content with his situation and not take advantage of the situation to make trouble again? The battle with Xikou did not have a final result, but was only a temporary balance between the two sides. Shizi and Yuwentai have a three-year covenant, no matter whether the three-year time limit is up or not, as long as this balance is broken, the war will come. No one will be naïve enough to think that they will not see the beacon for three years.

Cui Jishu is really worried about the world. He knew in his heart that in the land of poetry and poetry in the Southern Dynasties, the southerners must look down on the northerners for their carelessness, which is why the prince wants to take him with him. In any case, he is also from the Cui Shili family.

Northern Yuzhou has jurisdiction over three counties: Guangwu, Chenggao and Xingyang. Chenggao County governs Chenggao County, right in front of you. Gao Cheng set off from Yecheng, the light car was simple, the road was not in a hurry, and deliberately passed through Chenggao, and stopped here for a while. This is not the only way to get to Jiankang, but it is here.

The assassin history of Northern Yuzhou is Gao Zhongmi, who was released after being robbed of the lieutenant of Yushi when Gao Cheng punished him for corruption. Gao Zhongmi's release was originally a tacit understanding between Gao Cheng and Gao Aocao. Gao Aocao's brother and brother have all served in high positions in the history of assassination, but in fact, they are derogatory and praised. This is not only Gao Cheng's use of brothers to check and balance, but also Gao Cheng's explanation to Gao Aocao.

The Northern Yuzhou Governance Office is in the Tiger Prison. The Tiger Prison Pass, which can be called a natural danger, was originally the place where Gao Aocao was stationed, and it was precisely because of this that Gao Cheng relieved himself to put Gao Zhongmi in Northern Yuzhou, which was actually equivalent to handing Gao Zhongmi into Gao Aocao's hands. Gao Cheng and Gao Aocao have a tacit understanding with each other and can trust each other. Two people, one has the heart to stand up, the other has the heart to make contributions, and they can also fulfill each other. Especially after getting acquainted with each other, it has changed from being out of place at the beginning to sympathizing with each other.

Who knew that in the process of fighting for the river bridge between the two Wei Dynasty, Gao Aocao, the first brave general of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, actually died tragically. Gao Cheng and Chen Yuankang both felt that Gao Aocao's death was a little strange. The context is not clear, but a more difficult problem lies ahead. As soon as Gao Aocao died, Gao Zhongmi lost his restraints. It's not so reassuring to put him in the tiger prison, because Gao Cheng knows that Gao Zhongmi must be dissatisfied with him in his heart. Without Gao Aocao's moderation, a person like Gao Zhongmi, who is a bit self-willed, will be restless in the Tiger Prison. Stay away from Yedu, who knows if there will be any mess again? Will the old disease recur and commit corruption and dereliction of duty again?

"Shizi," Cui Jishu walked behind Gao Cheng, and when he saw that it was getting dark, he persuaded, "The night is dark and windy, it's time to go back." ”

Gao Cheng turned around and said with a smile, "System, Yanyi also, it's really true." Zhuang Gong understands this truth, and would rather give up the capital than the system. Uncle Tai can also peek at it from now on, and he is willing to get Beijing without insisting on the system, and the success or failure will be determined early. Gao Cheng laughed as he strolled back, "I made a mistake. ”

Cui Jishu followed him, "Since the prince understands in his heart, there is no need to be anxious, Xu Tu can do it." If you are in a hurry, it is easy to startle the snake. ”

Gao Cheng's mission to Jiankang was a matter that had been set a long time ago. Originally, it was the improvisation of Yang Kan, the official of the capital of Liang State, on the temple of the Great Wei Dynasty, but Gao Cheng wanted to explore the reality of Liang Guo, so he pushed the boat down the river to respond to this matter. In the battle of the Two Weis, onlookers, whether Nanliang or Rouran, played an important role. Even if the battle between the two Wei Dynasty has a result in the future, who can guarantee that Liang Guo and Rouran will definitely not cause trouble in the future? It's better to plan ahead.

Gao Cheng and Puyang County Duke, Yuzhou Assassin Shi, and Situ Hou Jing were both Wei envoys. After the Battle of Heqiao, Hou Jing returned to Yecheng to report on his work and returned to Runan, and then went to Jiankang from Runan. Gao Cheng set off from Yecheng and walked all the way, but he didn't want to attract attention.

Sure enough, until he arrived in Chenggao, he stayed here and rested for a while, which did not attract the attention of Gao Zhongmi, the assassin of Northern Yuzhou. And Gao Zhongmi's office is in the Tiger Prison. But no one can say for sure whether he really doesn't know or whether he doesn't know. What made Gao Cheng feel a little relieved was that he didn't see any uneasiness or abnormality along the way. After the battle for the important land in Henan centered on the river bridge, the prefecture and county gradually stabilized, and at this time, the spring ploughing was large, and the state of a rich country and a strong people began to appear.

Gao Cheng only came out with Cui Jishu alone, and he didn't even bring a cangtou slave. Cui Jishu always felt that Shizi was not a good habit, he could go wherever he wanted, and he never took himself seriously. Cui Jishu looked around, at this time it was dark, and the suburbs outside Chenggao City were empty and unoccupied, and he always felt as if someone was lurking not far from them. There are also dots of bright light flickering in places that are far and near, which makes Cui Jishu even more suspicious.

"Shizi, it's getting dark, go back quickly, otherwise General Changyou will definitely find you." Cui Jishu Cui urged Gao Cheng.

"Where's the horse?" Gao Cheng didn't understand Cui Jishu's mood, but he didn't think there was anything abnormal.

Cui Jishu looked around again, where is there still the shadow of a horse?

Gao Cheng walked in the direction of Cheng Gao without hurry, leaving all the problems behind Cui Jishu to worry about alone.

Suddenly, Gao Cheng stopped, as if he was listening intently to something.

Cui Jishu also stopped with him, so nervous that cold sweat came out. Is there really anyone following them? What did the prince hear?

It was the sound of a pipa that penetrated into Gao Cheng's ears through the night sky, making him unbelievable. This kind of skill is by no means ordinary, and hearing such a pipa song outside Chenggao City and the empty countryside at this moment seem so incompatible, it doesn't seem real.

Gao Cheng himself is also a pipa master, and at this moment, he naturally refused to let go of Xianle, so he followed the sound and chased away. In the dark, while listening intently, I couldn't help but identify the source of the sound and walked slowly. I forgot about looking for mounts and going back to the city.

"Shizi! Don't go! Cui Jishu shouted.

Gao Cheng didn't look back, just waved his hand at him. It could be seen that he didn't like Cui Jishu very much to interrupt him listening in such a loud voice.

Cui Jishu looked at Cheng Gao in the distance, and then looked at the interested Shizi, and in desperation, this time he finally did not leave Lord Lang and followed.
