Chapter 82: Gao Zihui Unintentionally Rebelled Against Self-Restraint (13)
It's still that gorgeous carriage. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Bald Tujia still sits in the car and looks at the street scene of Yecheng outside. He once again sighed in his heart about the wealth of Great Wei. It cannot but be said that the general Gao Cheng, the minister of the auxiliary country, has a good strategy for governing the country. Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked up at Gao Cheng, who was sitting opposite him.
Gao Cheng was sitting precariously at this time, closing his eyes and recuperating, and he couldn't see any expression on his face. Naturally, Bald Jia couldn't guess what was going on in his heart. Thinking of it just now, Gao Cheng didn't go to the courtyard where the eldest princess lived for a long time. I don't know what he said when he met the eldest princess. When he came out, he couldn't see anything unusual, but Bald Tujia sensitively noticed that there was indeed something strange in it.
He carefully looked at Gao Cheng, who was sitting with his hands in his hands. He was wearing an official uniform and a three-beam Jinxian crown on his head, which was particularly solemn. At this time, Fang felt that he had no power and dignity, not just the little Langjun who laughed with him. Bald Tujia looked down at himself, he was also the prince of Shuofang County, and he was wearing an official uniform when he entered the palace today, but even he felt awkward.
The carriage gradually slowed down, and the market outside was nowhere to be seen, and the carriage stopped outside the east gate of the palace, a place where Bald Tujia had never been, and Gao Cheng took him on a road he had never walked before. But Gao Cheng is obviously familiar with it, and Bald Tujia is still free from waiting left and right after him.
Neither of them spoke all the way. Naturally, the guards and servants couldn't all enter the palace together, and there were only two people along the way, Gao Cheng and Bald Tujia. Neither of them spoke. Gao Cheng strutted all the way, and Bald Tujia followed Yuguan behind him.
Bypass Shangshutai, enter Yunlongmen, and then go all the way north. In the middle, we pass by the tall and majestic Tai Chi Hall. Bald Tujia didn't have a chance to pay attention to it the last time he came, but at this time, he felt that the strength and beauty of the Taiji Hall was like a heavenly palace. He followed Gao Cheng forward, looking up and looking directly, secretly speechless. looked at Gao Cheng again, he didn't squint, he didn't look at it at all.
Then go all the way to the north, pass through the Zhuhua Gate, there is a temple on the side of the right head called "Hanguang Palace". Hanguang Hall is inside the outer court, and it is outside the inner court. Gao Cheng's special order to arrange an interview here again also has a deep meaning. Hanguang Hall is neither as formal as the Taiji Hall nor as casual as the Zhaotai Hall.
This is just like the kiss itself. If the two sides surrender to the contract when the alliance is concluded, then they will be very happy, and they can naturally feast and drink in the Zhaotai Hall in the garden; If there is no consensus between the two sides, then the envoy of the country will enter the Taiji Hall to show the prestige of the country and do official business.
On the way, Gao Cheng had already thought about it. The eldest brother of Princess Yuan Yuyi of Langya, Wang Yuanbin of Gaoyang, has a daughter, who is quite old and pleasant, and is a suitable candidate. This is what Cui Jishu mentioned to him the day before yesterday. Gao Cheng also thought about it carefully, Yuan Bin is actually a cowardly person, and he was used by him yesterday to threaten him, so he will not dare to have two hearts, which is different from the kind of person like Wang Yuanhui of Jibei who does not eat hard and soft. Therefore, if his daughter becomes a princess of the Rouran family, she will obey him.
What Gao Cheng thought in his heart was to make Yuan Shanjian give Yuan Bin's daughter the title of eldest princess, which would be counted as Yuan Shanjian's sister marrying Bald Tujia. Then he gave Yuan Bin extra favors, and gave him the position of the right servant of the official Zhishang Shu, so he took Yuan Bin with the combination of grace and power.
He had already thought about it seamlessly, and Gao Cheng thought of Bald Tu Jialai, and stopped and turned around to look. Suddenly smiled, "Brother Xian must have not slept peacefully last night, and today I am sleepy, I ordered someone to find another quiet place for Brother Xian, and I will no longer let Brother Xian be disturbed." ”
Gao Cheng's smile simply made Bald Tujia feel that the clouds of the day had dispersed, and the sky was suddenly clear. I sighed from the bottom of my heart, no wonder others said that the general was the beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city, and it was so. However, Gao Cheng's smile made him feel a little relieved, so he smiled, "Xiao Langjun doesn't have to care about me, the pavilion is very good." If the eldest prince mainly lives temporarily, the younger brother will find another house next to him, so there is no need for Xiao Langjun to trouble again. ”
Gao Cheng only treated him politely, and didn't say anything, and the two of them walked inside hand in hand.
I don't know, Bald Tujia is also thinking about it in her heart, and when she sees Emperor Wei Yuan Shanjian for a while, she should say what to say about marrying the eldest princess. Seeing Gao Cheng smile just now, Bald Tujia invisibly felt that she was encouraged.
When she arrived outside the Hanguang Palace, Bald Tujia saw the fat man who looked like white dough running over happily, with a smile on his face.
"General." Cui Jishu didn't care about his official uniform, and he didn't become solemn when he saw Gao Cheng. In any case, it is also the high position of the Yellow Gate Squire, and he is from a big family. This point made Bald Tujia very incomprehensible.
"The prince slept peacefully last night?" Cui Jishu asked Bald Tujia with a smile.
"Very good, very good." Bald Tujia also learned from the polite appearance of these Central Plains scholars. If it weren't for Cui Jishu's arrangement, he wouldn't be able to see the eldest princess again last night, which was naturally very good.
Seeing that Rouran Shizi was so satisfied, Cui Jishu was very happy in his heart, and glanced at Gao Cheng as if he had made a contribution.
Gao Cheng walked up to him, stared at him, and suddenly turned his back to Bald Tujia, stared at Cui Jishu fiercely and whispered, "Do a good thing......
Cui Jishu's smile suddenly froze on his face, and he didn't understand what he had done wrong, so he glanced at Bald Tujia uneasily. Bald Tujia still looked at him with a smile on her face, not like she was dissatisfied with him.
"Don't keep the Lord waiting." Gao Cheng commanded, and he walked up the stone steps in front of Hanguang Palace.
Bald Tujia also followed.
Cui Jishu looked at Gao Cheng's back and still didn't understand.
Gao Cheng was a little surprised when he entered the Hanguang Palace.
It's not just Emperor Yuan Shanjian, but also Empress Gao Yuanjun. What's even more unexpected is that his younger brother Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang is also there.
Yuan Shanjian seemed to be very happy for some reason, and when he saw the eunuch guiding the general and the prince of Rouran to come to the audience, he was full of smiles, and he was speechless.
Queen Gao Yuanjun smiled slightly, but that kind of smile made people feel that the queen was high and far away, and there was nothing to get close to. The queen is dignified and cautious, like the Guanyin lady in the mural of any cave temple.
Bald Tujia actually couldn't stand the most was Taiyuan Gonggaoyang's gaze. I've seen it twice in total, and when I look back, I feel that kind of gaze makes people feel cold. Until now, he still can't believe that this Taiyuan Duke is Xiao Langjun's younger brother.
The elder and the young are respectful and humble, and each of them is courteous. Yuan Shan saw that he was given a seat, Gao Cheng and Bald Tujia were accustomed to it, and the other felt the special grace, and sat down separately.
Yuan Shanjian was actually prepared in his heart, and at this time, he looked at Bald Tujia and Gao Cheng, ready to seize the opportunity and act according to his own will.
However, the queen Gao Yuanjun and the Taiyuan Duke Gao Yang looked completely unaware and seemed to be watching from the sidelines.
Gao Cheng looked at Yuan Shanjian carefully and looked eager to try, and he calculated the preemptive strike in his heart, and said humbly on his face, "Your Majesty, the prince of Rouran came to Yecheng to meet Your Majesty for the marriage of Rouran and Dawei. The minister thought that since the prince of Shuofang County had not yet sent his daughter here, His Majesty had promised the marriage of the prince first, and the marriage of the prince could be done first. is so orderly, the days are wrong, and it is convenient to do Princess Rouran's marriage later. ”
Gao Cheng said, glanced at Bald Tujia and said to Yuan Shan, "When the time comes, the prince will become a relative of His Majesty, and Da Wei and Rou Ran will also be connected by flesh and blood, isn't it a great joy that God is blessed with?" ”
Bald Tujia's heart moved, and he always felt that Gao Cheng looked at him just now, and the words he said had a deep meaning. How did he know that he would become a relative of the emperor? Did he already know his mind? Bald Tujia was vigilant in her heart, and looked at Wei Diyuan Shanjian without revealing it at all.
Yuan Shanjian nodded, with a smile on his face. One glance at Gao Cheng, and another look at Bald Tujia. In fact, everyone understands in their hearts that Princess Rouran's marriage is the most important thing.
Empress Gao Yuanjun paid great attention to Gao Cheng's words, and always felt that he had something to say. At this time, he looked at Yuan Shanjian and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, what the general said is very reasonable. Your Majesty wants to show mercy, please make it clear. ”
Gao Cheng felt that these words seemed to urge Yuan Shanjian to say something, and he glanced at his sister. Although he has always been domineering, it is not good to openly "show grace" before Yuan Shanjian at this time.
Only Gao Yang is still sitting on the wall and watching.
Yuan Shanjian had already intended to make the daughter of Yuan Daqi, the king of Huashan, the eldest princess, marry Bald Tujia. Jibei Wang Yuanhui has no daughters of appropriate age, Huashan Wang Yuandaqi is good friends with him, and he is also a reliable confidant in Yuan Shanjian's opinion, so it is best to use Yuandaqi's daughter.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." Bald Tujia suddenly knelt up straight and said loudly.
His voice was so loud that he startled Yuan Shanjian, who was about to speak. Even Gao Cheng was stunned and didn't understand what he meant. Gao Yang also set his sights on Bald Tujia.
"Your Majesty, the minister is interested in His Majesty's sister, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and wants to marry the eldest princess as the princess, please ask Your Majesty for permission." After saying that, Bald Tujia had already kowtowed to the ground.
As soon as the bald story was spoken, everyone was stunned. There was silence in the hall of light.
Everyone except Bald Tujia didn't understand, and they didn't know what he meant. But almost everyone subconsciously glanced at Gao Cheng inadvertently.
Cui Jishu saw that Gao Cheng suddenly knelt up straight, but slowly sat back and glanced up at Emperor Yuan Shanjian.
Yuan Shanjian was stared at by Gao Cheng and felt a chill, because Gao Cheng's eyes were full of murderous aura.
Bald Tujia couldn't hear the sound for a long time, and felt strange, so she couldn't help but straighten up and look up at Yuan Shanjian, "Your Majesty? Seeing Yuan Shanjian's expression, he was uncertain.
"The Prince...... The eldest princess said by the prince...... Who is it? Yuan Shanjian glanced at Gao Cheng uneasily.
Bald Tujia was confused, and asked rhetorically with a twisted eyebrow, "Doesn't Your Majesty only have one sister?" Who else is there besides Princess Feng Yi? He thought that the monarchs and ministers of Great Wei were going to repent, and he was very dissatisfied in his heart.
Bald Tujia suddenly saw that Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang, who was sitting diagonally opposite him, suddenly leaned forward, tightly holding the green glazed cup on the low table in front of him, and he was staring at him deadly.
Seeing that the muscles on his face were bursting up, Bald Tujia felt that this person was strangely described.
"The prince chooses someone else, and the eldest princess can't." Gao Cheng didn't wait for Yuan Shanjian to speak, and immediately categorically dismissed it.
Cui Jishu had already noticed that when Bald Tujia said "Eldest Princess Feng Yi", Gao Cheng's eyebrows jumped, and his eyes were full of murderous aura, almost making him suspect that the general was going to kill this Rouran prince under the sword immediately.
Now the emperor and queen sat on the wall and watched. Yuan Shanjian looked at Gao Cheng and Bald Tujia with a look of bewilderment; Gao Yuanjun is in a dilemma.
Bald Tujia blurted out angrily, "What does Xiao Langjun mean? Why not? In a hurry, he also said what he called Gao Cheng in private.
Only Cui Jishu in the corner of the hall was secretly amused.
Witnessing all this and gloating was Lin Xingren, the regular attendant who was hidden behind the curtain in the corner of the palace. He never imagined that things would turn out like this. Seeing Gao Cheng caught in the fetters, Lin Xingren was indescribably happy.
Yuan Shanjian finally spoke, "Doesn't Shizi know that Lone's sister is pregnant?" ”
Bald Tujia turned his head to Yuan Shanjian, "Your Majesty, of course the minister knows. But although the eldest princess is pregnant, she has no husband. If the minister can get the eldest princess as his wife, he will inevitably take the eldest princess as his own son. He turned back to look at Gao Cheng again, his eyes full of disbelief.
Bald Tujia was indeed very angry in her heart. The first is because he knows that the situation between the two Wei is tense, and they both want to rely on Rouran, and Rouran is in the middle, and it is convenient to choose benefits for himself. Second, he was dissatisfied with Gao Cheng. In Chang'an, even Yuwentai didn't dare to be so arrogant to him, it seems that this general is even more domineering than Yuwentai. If he is low at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that Rouran will not fall into the fate of being wanted by Da Wei in the future.
Bald Tujia's words shocked everyone even more. I don't know who told him that the eldest princess Feng Yi has no husband. Everyone set their eyes on Gao Cheng again. No one noticed that Gao Yang's eyes were full of hatred when he looked at his eldest brother.
"The small state of the dragon is so rampant. Your Majesty's marriage is already a great favor to you, how dare you think about it? Don't you know that the Great Wei Kingdom is rich and strong, and the Lord's kindness to Rouran is the way to educate, and the barbarian department of Wang'er can admire the Great Wei Wende and be convinced, so that the two treat each other sincerely. If you rely on yourself and think that Dawei can be bullied, wouldn't it be the frog in Kanjing who only sees one corner of the sky? Could it be that Dawei has no iron horse? Can't step on the soft? Gao Cheng said and stood up.
Gao Cheng stared at Bald Tujia with burning eyes.
Bald Tujia was annoyed and puzzled at this time, and he also stood up. was about to refute, but I knew in my heart that Gao Cheng's rebuke was also the truth. He has indeed seen the strength of Great Wei in the past two days, how can he be sure that the Rouran Iron Horse will really break through Yecheng?
Bald Tujia was not stupid, he grabbed the handle in Gao Cheng's words and asked, "What does the general mean?" first promised to marry, and then regretted it. The alliance with relatives is for the sake of harmony between the two sides, and the general is in a hurry to dispatch the iron cavalry, did he think that he would not succeed in the fight from the beginning? He stared at Gao Cheng and refused to show weakness, although he would never think of breaking with Da Wei in his heart, but he refused to bow down on the surface.
Bald Tujia was suddenly startled, stared at Gao Cheng in disbelief and asked, "Could it be that the general himself is interested in the eldest princess, so he refuses to let me ask to marry?" ”
The whole temple was amazed, rejoicing, and angry.
Gao Cheng stared at Bald Tujia and took two steps. He was taller than Bald Tujia, looked down at him and said, "I have a word, you understand." Nian Er is ignorant, I don't care about it today, I especially want to make it clear, the eldest princess is my wife, and the eldest princess is my bloodline in her womb, and it is not your turn to propose to the princess. She has long been a wife, and she is a step too late. He swept his gaze up and down Bald Tujia, "Today's words have made it clear that if I commit another crime, don't blame me for being ruthless." (To be continued.) )
