Chapter 220: Confidants talk about confidants

Li Changyi raised her head, her cheeks were already red like peach wine, Gao Cheng looked at her without saying a word, and there was a hint of a playful smile on the corner of her lips. Li Changyi had to reach out to take the crystal cup from his hand, and her fingertips touched his fingers and retreated as if frightened. Gao Cheng looked at her with a cup without any reaction, which invisibly made her stressed.

Li Changyi stretched out her hand again, Gao Cheng handed the cup to her, and then watched Li Changyi hide her face with her sleeves a little awkwardly and drank a whole glass of peach wine. Awkward is awkward, but her breath is not chaotic, and her expression is as usual, so she knows that she is good at drinking.

"Madame can drink so much, it seems that I expected it to be good." Gao Cheng suddenly stretched out his hand and held Li Changyi's hand holding the empty crystal cup in his hand. His eyes were fixed on her, making her a thorn in her back.

"General......" Li Changyi was startled by his sudden action, and struggled to break free from his hand, where can she have Gao Cheng's strength, he doesn't need to use much force, she can't escape.

Gao Cheng looked at her like a cat and mouse, teasing her prey. Of course he knew that she couldn't escape if he wanted to.

"Madame is so reluctant to drink with me, is she in a hurry to go back to the house to see the lieutenant? If Madame is so anxious to see her husband, I will order someone to invite the lieutenant here as well, and watch Madame drink with me. Gao Cheng made an unbelievable suggestion.

"Don't ......" Li Changyi was angry, hateful, ashamed and embarrassed, and now she realized that she couldn't anger him. Please don't embarrass my husband, general. Li Changyi lowered his head, not daring to look at his evil green eyes again. It scared her, made her feel like he was by her side like a beast.

"I don't feel sorry for the high lieutenant, but I don't know why Madame always wants to embarrass me?" Gao Cheng asked very unreasonably. "I treat each other politely, but my wife refuses to give me any face." As he spoke, he used the hand that held Li Changyi's hand to pull her arm closer to him.

Because Gao Cheng pulled hard, Li Changyi couldn't bear the strength, couldn't hold his body and tilted towards Gao Cheng, and almost fell into his arms.

"What does the general have to do to let my husband go?" Seeing him like this, Li Changyi knew that he was powerless to resist today, so he simply calmed down and simply asked directly.

"If Gao Zhongmi wasn't your husband, I would let him go." Gao Cheng is meaningful.

Gao Cheng's words shocked Li Changyi and trembled as if her whole body had been doused with cold water. It turned out that he actually intended to expel her from the lieutenant's mansion and make her a cousin? She also knew that the general favored Cui Xian, did he want to humiliate her like this in order to vent his anger on Cui Xian and use the humiliation of the Xue Cui clan?

Li Changyi didn't speak, just immersed in his wishful thinking, and slowly became sad, tears appeared in his eyes, and he looked at Gao Cheng with tears.

I have seen her pungent, I have seen her fierce, but at this moment, when she showed weakness, Gao Cheng relented. Originally, he just wanted to tease her, but he couldn't bear to see her like this. pulled her into his arms again, and comforted casually, "What's so good about Gao Zhongmi?" Why should the lady be sad for him? If my wife is willing, how about I marry my wife to another high-ranking family? also so as not to be implicated with Gao Zhongmi in the future. ”

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional, and when Li Changyi heard him say that he was "implicated," his heart tightened, but he didn't immediately ask anything, but just kept it in his heart. She threw down the crystal cup, wrapped her arms around Gao Cheng's neck, and wept silently, "The concubine only asks the general to let my husband go, and the concubine is grateful." ”

Li Changyi took the initiative to throw herself into her arms, Gao Cheng's arm that was originally holding her waist relaxed, Li Changyi also sensitively noticed the change in his mood, didn't dare to cry anymore, got out of his arms, looked at Gao Cheng, and his breath was not even even. Gao Cheng saw that her eyes were hazy with tears, her hair was messy, and he asked quietly, "If I do what Madame asks, how will Madame repay me?" ”

Li Changyi's heart was beating wildly when he saw it, and of course she knew what he wanted. It's not that she's undecided, but she doesn't know how to grasp the scale so as not to make him think she is cheap.

The room fell silent, and the atmosphere became ambiguous.

Gao Cheng pressed his body up, his lips almost touching her cheek, and he stopped, he was so calm that he scared her.

Li Changyi lowered her head at a loss, her breath chaotic.

Gao Cheng didn't move closer, as if waiting for her to take the initiative to approach him. Li Changyi's heart was like a mess, and she couldn't make a decision no matter what.

Gao Cheng smiled lightly, let go of Li Changyi, and called, "Shuzheng." He didn't make a loud voice, but Cui Jishu walked in immediately.

Li Changyi was still half-leaning in Gao Cheng's arms, shocked and ashamed, how did she know that Cui Jishu was not surprised by such a scene. Her heart was beating like a drum waiting for Gao Cheng to make a decision, as if she was standing on the edge of an abyss, waiting to fall at any time.

"What does the prince command?" Cui Jishu looked at Gao Cheng with a smile.

"I'm tired too, so I'll send my wife home." Gao Cheng laughed and ordered.

Li Changyi had already made the worst decision, but he didn't expect the general to say such a thing, and he didn't react for a while, and even felt a faint sense of loss in his heart.

"What? Madame doesn't want to go back? Gao Cheng looked at Li Changyi stunned and asked lightly. It seems to be smiling, but there is coldness in his voice.

Li Changyi grasped the opportunity well this time, and immediately got up and saluted, "The concubine retired." Then he slowly retreated.

The sun had turned west, and the sky was darkening. A lot of time has passed when Cui Jishu returned to the orchid restaurant again. Strangely, there is still no one else in the liquor store, and perhaps this is not surprising. Orchid sat alone in the place where she had just sat and plucked the strings with the pipa, and there was a touching music coming out. This music has a fast rhythm and rich tonal changes, which makes people intoxicated by it, and Cui Jishu suddenly has a lot of pride and ambition.

Hu Ji glanced at Cui Jishu with a smile while playing the pipa, ignored him, and lowered his head to play intently, looking very happy and satisfied. Cui Jishu didn't pay attention to it either, and walked towards where Gao Cheng was inside.

By the time Cui Jishu returned to the quiet room, it was already full of the mellow smell of peach wine. At a glance, he saw Gao Cheng looking out the window at his motionless back. He was still sitting where he was just now, and his back made Cui Jishu's heart heavy.

"The prince ......" Cui Jishu came over and sat down beside Gao Cheng.

Gao Cheng turned his head, his cheeks were flushed, his face seemed to be drunk, and his originally snow-white skin seemed to be dyed with crimson rouge, obviously a little drunk. He reached out a hand and gently stroked the cold crystal cup with his fingers. There are still a few traces of residual wine in the crystal cup, which sinks at the bottom of the glass, looking gorgeous and lonely. His fingers ran over the cup, feeling the cold, smooth touch.

"Why does the prince drink alone?" Cui Jishu unconsciously glanced at the door, and the meaning was self-explanatory.

"Uncle Cui, have you done anything behind my back?" Gao Cheng filled the crystal cup with wine by himself.

"Uncle Zheng doesn't dare," Cui Jishu smiled casually, "The lady is the person who the prince cares about, and the uncle naturally doesn't dare to slack off, so he must escort the lady back to the house by himself to return to the world with the son." ”

Gao Cheng put down the crystal cup he had just picked up in his hand and stared at Cui Jishu. It turned out that he actually went to send Li Changyi back to his home, no wonder he had been there for so long. "What do you think she will say if she goes back to the house to see Gao Zhongmi?" Gao Cheng asked with great interest. His face was expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what was going on in his heart.

She said goodbye to the minister at the gate of the mansion, said a few words of gratitude to the general's kindness, and went in. Presumably, the people in the house will report to Gao Zhongmi when they see the minister sending her back, as for what Gao Zhongmi will think in his heart, the prince can guess as much as he can. Cui Jishu smiled.

Li Changyi was so jealous that he couldn't even tolerate a novice who was talking about Zen and preaching the Dharma next to his husband, so he tried his best to divide the line and make Gao Zhong's secret kill as soon as possible. Gao Cheng and Cui Jishu both knew about this. Gao Zhongmi also went to great lengths to marry Li Changyi, and did not hesitate to offend the Boling Cui family, and indirectly offended Gao Cheng. If he thought that Gao Cheng wanted to get involved with Li Changyi, I don't know how he would react? It's certainly not going to be calm anyway. Even if others regard him as a mustard, he also regards him as a treasure, and there is also a man's face problem, not to mention that Li Changyi is by no means a mustard.

"It's not difficult to guess Gao Zhongmi's thoughts." Gao Cheng smiled, and then picked up the crystal cup and sipped again, and his expression relaxed for a moment. "There's no need to be so tense and eye-catching, I'd like to see what he does." Cui Jishu saw him with a bamboo in his chest, and then thought about Gao Zhongmi, as if he saw the beautiful shade of the cicada perched on his body, and the praying mantis was already obsessed with the scene.

"If Gao Zhongmi knew that the prince was so calculating him, I don't know how he would regret it." Cui Jishu laughed. This may seem like flattery, but it's too straightforward.

It's rare that Gao Cheng didn't get angry, he laughed and drank all the wine in the cup, he was already seven or eight points drunk, and suddenly smiled again, "System, Yanyi, Uncle Yu is dead." Gao Zhong got it, I don't know how. ”

Cui Jishu smiled, "Uncle Yu is not worried, the one who is worried is Yuwen Black Otter." Why did the prince promise Yang Kan to go to Jiankang? Is it true just a few words from him? Cui Jishu thought to himself, can't he really go to see Yang Shunhua for the sake of missing him to the extreme? If you don't joke, think about it seriously, of course Cui Jishu also understands that although the prince loves sex, he is not stupid.

"It's for the Yuwen Black Otter." Gao Cheng's eyes were slightly closed, and he was drunk. "He has taken the lead in Rouran, the north is safe and the south is uncertain, Emperor Liang and him are rejected by two, and it is difficult to turn around for a while. This high neighbor is helpless to gain, and harmful to lose, so you might as well use some heart to circumvent. Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Since Emperor Liang has repeatedly sent envoys here, is it polite to come and not to deal with him? Except for that Xiao Zhengde, is there no one else in Liang Guo who can make friends? If you want to kill the black otter, you don't have to work on him alone. ”

Gao Cheng said to Cui Jishu, and Cui Jishu also nodded frequently while listening to himself. So the son of the world is prepared to go. But Emperor Liang is not a scheming person, and it is good to find out his true intentions. Cui Jishu was actually a little worried, but Emperor Yuan Shanjian also stuffed the most problematic Hou Jing into it, will it be very detrimental to the prince?

"Look at it, look at it, look at it...... "Gao Cheng's voice went up and down, obviously very drunk." Emperor Liang is like this, and so are others. Quietly watch the changes...... Quietly watch the changes......" After Gao Cheng finished speaking, he suddenly crooked and fell on the desk and got drunk.

Cui Jishu looked at Gao Cheng's sleeping face and thought to himself, the prince is not used to this peach wine, or maybe he is really tired today. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and the curfew was approaching, he just forgot to ask, did the prince want to go back to his home, or did he want to go to Dongbaitang?

In late autumn, the golden wind is blowing. Liang envoy has been reminded of a matter of Wei Diyuan's good opinion since the coming day. On the view of Zhaotai, it is the highest place of Wei Palace and Yuan, and it is unobstructed to look at it at a glance. Especially in such a crisp autumn season, you can almost see the faint residential downtown outside the palace ban, as well as the autumn colors of Jiangnan in Yuan Shanjian's imagination.

At this moment, there are only two people on the Zhaotai Temple, Emperor Yuan Shanjian and King Yuanhui of Jibei. Yuan Shanjian walked along the fence of the building, and Yuan Hui followed behind him and watched the emperor's back without saying a word, trying to guess his thoughts. Yuan Shanjian looked into the distance while strolling, and finally stopped leaning on the railing to look into the distance, never paying attention to the Yuan Hui behind him.

In front of others, Yuan Shan saw that Yuan Hui was respected as "Uncle Wang", but when there were only the two of them in private, Yuan Hui always felt that he was a little unable to understand the thoughts of this young emperor. In front of the Gao father and son, the emperor was always smiling and extremely kind. Especially for Gao Cheng, who is so arrogant and disrespectful to his subordinates, the emperor can always endure it, as if he never loses his temper. Only when such henchmen are on his side will the emperor become silent, as if he will never smile again.

Yuan Hui was secretly thinking about it, and Yuan Shanjian suddenly turned around, "Uncle Wang, does Gao Cheng know that you have installed a henchman in Dongbai Hall?" Otherwise, why is there no misdeeds at all? I don't know why, there was an unusual impatience in Yuan Zen's tone. Yuan Hui also knew that compared to the emperor Yuan Xiulai who fled westward, Yuan Shanjian was already very patient and tolerant.

"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry." Yuan Hui persuaded, "What if you find out what wrongdoing he has?" Now that he is in power, he can't touch his roots a little bit, but it's easy to startle the snake. If Your Majesty does not want to get rid of it, it will be harmful and useless. If Your Majesty wants to get rid of it, it is not enough to have any faults. During the Warring States period, it took hundreds of years for the Tian clan to gradually achieve its success. When the Marquis of Qi was already decorating, the Tian family was still able to endure it in order to ask for foreign aid, and waited for 70 years. The Lord endured such a great event. ”
