Chapter 22: Changes in Xingyang
When Gao Cheng was reading the silk book carefully, Cui Jishu saw that he had been frowning and silent, holding the thin silk silk in his hand motionlessly, staring intently. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ Info's face gradually became gloomy. Cui Jishu stood up, stepped forward, and stood on both sides of Gao Cheng with Chen Yuankang.
Finally, Gao Cheng put down the silk book, clenched it tightly in his hand, and at the same time raised his head and swept over Cui Jishu and Chen Yuankang respectively. The two of them felt cold on their bodies for no reason.
"Gao Zitong deserves the official position of this assassin." Gao Cheng said lightly, and then stood up. "Finally worthy of his brother, the governor of the capital, Gao Aocao."
Gao Jishi's Jeju assassination history is all because of Gao Aocao's face, and it is Gao Cheng's favor to Gao Aocao City. It is rare for Gao Aocao to be, and Gao Jishi can still use it for himself, which is also something that Gao Cheng is pleased about. At this time, Cui and Chen were in front, and the three of them discussed secretly, but Gao Cheng missed Gao Aocao very much in his heart.
Gao Cheng looked around the room, as if he was looking for something, and he suddenly remembered that this was Yuan Zhonghua's Yan Residence, and there was no map. Just as he was about to say something, suddenly a baby's cry came from the inner bed, and it was Xiao Langjun Bodhi who woke up.
Gao Cheng listened carefully and felt that Bodhi's crying at this time was very different from last night. I cried last night as if something important happened, and today I cry like a child, presumably because I can't speak, so I cry to express my need when I wake up.
Sure enough, after a while, Bodhi stopped crying. There was a faint whispering voice inside, intermittent and extremely gentle, as if Yuan Zhonghua was coaxing Bodhi.
Cui Jishu and Chen Yuankang watched Gao Cheng listen carefully without moving, but they didn't know what he was thinking. Expecting that the princess and Xiao Langjun were inside, thinking that Gao Cheng was pretending to be such a heavy thing in his heart at this time, I don't know what kind of mood he was in.
Gao Cheng suddenly remembered what Yuan Zhonghua said when he was half asleep just now, and instantly made a decision in his heart. He took a deep look at the curtain that separated the inside and outside, then turned and walked outside. Cui Jishu and Chen Yuankang also hurried to follow after they reflected.
After a while, Ah Jiao came in and went straight to bed. Seeing Yuan Zhonghua holding Bodhi, with a smile on his face, it was very different from yesterday. Ah Jiao replied that the general took Liu Taozhi and went to Dongbai Hall with General Chen and Cui Shilang. Yuan Zhonghua didn't ask more.
The carriage had already left the General's Mansion and headed for Dongbaitang.
The three of them were in the same car, but Gao Cheng didn't say a word in the car.
What was written in Gao Jishi's letter, Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu understood in their hearts.
This letter was written by Gao Jishi to Chen Yuankang.
Jeju Thorn Shi Gao Ji style, originally had nothing to do with Northern Yuzhou. But because of the twists and turns, Gao Jishi has long understood that he has the responsibility of detective, supervision, and retribution. He knows very well what the second brother Gao Zhongmi is, although he does not regard himself as high, but he has a stubborn personality. And the bones have never been convinced. Not to mention the general Gao Cheng, even the King of Bohai and the great prime minister Gao Huan may not be pleasing to the eye. What's more, Gao Cheng once suppressed him without saving face at all.
As soon as Gao Aocao died, Gao Jishi understood that he must have a position in his heart. Therefore, as soon as something happened in Northern Yuzhou, he immediately wrote to Chen Yuankang to explain. wrote to Chen Yuankang because Chen Yuankang had served under his brother Gao Aocao and was deeply valued, and he would definitely be able to treat him with sincerity. Second, it is also because he and Chen Yuankang still have a relationship, and they are also like-minded.
In comparison, the brotherhood between Gao Jishi and the third brother Gao Aocao is better than that with the second brother Gao Zhongmi. When the eldest brother Gao Qian was still alive, the second brother Gao Zhongmi was always the one who refused to fit in among the four brothers. The eldest brother Gao Qian and King Gao are of one mind, the third brother Gao Aocao and the general Gao Cheng are like-minded, and the second brother Gao Zhongmi still does not put Gao Cheng in his eyes.
Knowing that the second brother was resentful, Gao Jishi immediately wrote to Chen Yuankang as soon as he found out that he had any changes in Xingyang, the place where he was governed. It was he who discovered that Gao Zhongmi secretly sent his henchmen back to Yecheng. and then carefully arrest the causes and consequences, so it is judged that Gao Zhongmi is very likely to escort his wife Li Changyi to Xingyang.
But even if he takes his wife to the office, he doesn't need to take such strict precautions and act secretly. You can't think about it, and the more you think about it, the more weird it becomes. Reporting early can both exonerate yourself and prevent bigger problems from arising.
When the carriage arrived at Dongbaitang, Gao Cheng got off the car and went straight to the greenhouse.
Cui Jishu and Chen Yuankang followed.
After this night, Yuan Yuyi in Mulan Fang felt a lot better. I sighed in my heart that the tocolytic pills ordered by the imperial doctor had miraculous effects, and at this time I felt that it was completely fine. Presumably, it was precisely because the general was here yesterday that the imperial doctor did not dare not be extraordinarily dedicated.
Ti Nu went back and forth, saying that the general had returned. This surprised Yuan Yuyi a little. Yesterday at dusk, Gao Cheng chased Yuan Zhonghua away, but he didn't expect to come back in the early morning.
However, after a few times, Yuan Yuyi also saw Gao Cheng's behavior and his temper, and asked Ti Nu, is the general returning alone?
Ti Nu said that there were also General Chen and Cui Shilang with her, Yuan Yuyi nodded and did not speak, which was the same as she expected.
The sky is bright, very different from yesterday, not only the sun is shining, but also the wind is beautiful, and the spring scenery is restored. As it rises, it is not as cold as last night, but as if summer is coming.
The greenhouse is not as tall and bright as the Minghe Hall, but it can also have a sense of transparency at this time. The three of them do not seem too small here, but they are just right.
The place was simple, and the three of them sat on the floor. Due to the hot weather, Gao Cheng was sweating at this time. Cui Jishu saw it closely, and felt that the weather was not so hot, it should be caused by the general's anxiety.
"Lord Lang, it seems that the person who wanted to assassinate that night was sent by Gao Zhongmi. He originally wanted to pick up his wife, but he didn't expect to be hit by the general by mistake. It can be seen that Gao Zhongmi usually has a bad heart towards the general, otherwise his henchmen would not dare to suddenly plot the heart. This conclusion is not just what Cui Jishu thinks, in fact, all three people think so in their hearts. Gao Zhongmi has a different heart, that's for sure.
"Does the Lee family know these things?" Gao Cheng looked at Cui Jishu and asked, without a trace of emotion in his tone, as if this Li family was a stranger to him who had never met him at all.
Cui Jishu remembered that the day before, he had seen the general sharing a bed with this Li family, and when he heard him ask this question at this moment, he had a very unreal feeling. Lord Lang is not a person who can be swayed by women, he knows this very well.
"How could the Li family not know?" Cui Jishu asked rhetorically, he never believed that Li Changyi didn't know anything about Gao Zhongmi. But he really doesn't know what Li Changyi's position and attitude are.
"General, you can quickly recall Gao Zhongmi back to Yedu. If it has two hearts and occupies the important place of the tiger prison, if something happens, it can overturn the society. If it cannot be recalled, it may as well be cut off to prevent endless troubles in the future. At this time, Chen Yuankang cared about who the tiger was in the hands of, and he didn't care about whether the Li family knew or didn't know.
When the three people in the room were talking about it, they didn't notice the figure flashing by the window.
Liu Taozhi lost a move today. In view of the fact that Lord Lang was assassinated when he went out of Dongbaitang that day, he suddenly had the idea of paying close attention to the gate of Dongbaitang today. He also felt in his heart that the person who committed the assassination that day was inseparable from Gao Zhongmi. Because he secretly followed Gao Cheng when he sent out the Great Liang, he had already discovered that Gao Zhongmi's actions in the border of Northern Yu Prefecture were very strange, and he also secretly sent people to follow the general. It's just that that this time I didn't do anything against the general.
This time it was such a coincidence, such a thing happened outside the first gate of Gao Zhongmi's mansion, and Liu Taozhi could almost be determined to have something to do with Gao Zhongmi.
Liu Taozhi wanted to see if there was anyone around Dongbai Hall who was watching day and night. But he was negligent, and at this time, outside the window of the greenhouse, taking advantage of this gap that he had not noticed, Yuan Yuyi had already heard what Gao Cheng was saying inside.
Chen Yuankang never hesitated at the critical moment and was very decisive. At this time, Gao Zhongmi's importance has nothing to do with who he is, at this critical moment when the two Wei are about to fight, no matter who is in the Tiger Prison, his position is very important. And Chen Yuankang saw this is exactly the reason.
"It's not appropriate to make an uproar at this time. Since he cares about the woman, he can explain it to the Li family and ask him to write a letter, and it is best that Gao Zhongmi can take the initiative to return to Yedu. Gao Cheng's consideration is actually deeper. At this time, if Gao Zhongmi remains unchanged, it will not only be him who will change, and it will not be possible to make the vibration of Northern Yuzhou.
and Situ Hou Jing. Hou Jing is the assassin of Yuzhou, adjacent to Gao Zhongmi, who Hou Jing is and what he thinks needless to say, the three seem to be clear. It doesn't matter if you move Gao Zhongmi, if you want to raise something else, it's hard to say what will go wrong.
Cui Jishu glanced at Gao Cheng and didn't speak. Sometimes he really thinks that Shizi is a little naΓ―ve. Not to mention who the Li family is, not to mention the scheming, is she really willing to listen to the words of the prince? Besides, it is true that Gao Zhongmi cares about Li Changyi, otherwise he would not do that kind of tooth-wrenching thing. can care about it, and this kind of thing may not be willing to listen to Li Changyi. Even if Li Changyi is willing, Gao Zhongmi may not be willing. Isn't it wishful thinking on the part of the world?
"The prince still wants to win over Gao Zhongmi at this time?" Cui Jishu asked a little unwillingly.
Gao Cheng sighed, since he was in danger, he had to weigh it in many ways, and he had to be patient. "It's not appropriate to change at this time, what can you do if you don't win over? Gao Zhongmi is a pivotal person at this time, if I don't win over, wouldn't it be a bad thing if Yuwen Black Otter sent someone to win over. β
At this time, a figure flashed outside the window.
As soon as Yuan Yuyi heard these words, she saw Liu Taozhi walking here from a distance. So he motioned to the girl and helped her slowly hide behind the bushes.
Gao Cheng in the room said to Chen Yuankang again, "Brother Changyou, although you will not change, you must be prepared for all changes. There must be no relaxation in the city, and success or failure lies here. β
The shackles on the back of the tiger prison are its constraints, which Chen Yuankang understands very well.
Cui Jishu suddenly interjected when he heard this, "General, things are done in two ways, and there is no delay in each other, so it is better to summon Gao Zhongmi with the order of the Lord and ask him to return to work quickly." β
This reminded Gao Cheng. We can't pin all our hopes on Lee's letters and high-season supervision. Recall by the emperor's order is the most direct way. If Gao Zhongmi returned immediately, it would be simple. If Gao Zhongmi refuses to obey the edict, not only will it be proved that he has different intentions, but he can also be justifiably arrested for the crime of treason, and no one will dare to object.
In the Wei Palace, on the edge of the pickaxe pond in the garden, the Xinyi that Queen Gao Yuanjun liked gradually began to wither when it was at its most prosperous.
Xinyi, when flowering, the branches are full of flowers and have no leaves. The flowers bloom to the extreme, gradually scorching and falling off, and at this time they begin to grow leaves. When the Xinyi of a tree is replaced by leaves, this Xinyi tree is the most ordinary.
Gao Yuanjun loves Xinyi when it first blooms, there are not many flowers, and the branches are proud, not as cramped and crowded as when the flowers are blooming, nor as ordinary and tasteless as when a tree has green leaves.
Gao Yuanjun, who was standing under the Xinyi tree by the pickaxe pool, watched Xiaohu pick the most beautiful flowers from the Xinyi tree and hold them in front of her. But she couldn't see her husband on the high Zhaotai.
Emperor Yuan Shanjian and King Yuanhui of Jibei were walking slowly along the fence on the Zhaotai Temple, followed by Lin Xingren, the servant of Zhongchang.
Lin Xingren looked at the back of the silent emperor who was walking in front, Yuan Shanjian had been walking back and forth here for a long time.
Finally, Yuan Shanjian stopped and looked into the distance by the railing. Lin Xingren looked at Yuan Shan's beautiful and impeccable face. He was silent and expressionless, which was his truest self at this time. This is not in the Jiaofang Palace, he doesn't have to be gentle, he doesn't have to smile.
Yuan Hui followed.
"Lord, King Gaoyang has been to the minister's mansion a few times recently, and he always shows his closeness......" Yuan Hui looked at Yuan Shanjian and said this, and did not say the rest of the words. He didn't need to explain too clearly, and believed that the emperor understood what he meant.
"Then you don't want to get close to him. Isn't there food and wine in your house, dancing girls and singers? Yuan Zen saw that he replied to him a little absent-mindedly.
Yuan Bin was humiliated in the Zhaotai Hall and was forced to dance like Hu Teng'er to entertain Gao Cheng, so he became jealous. It was because of this jealousy that he wanted to cling to King Yuanhui of Jibei to get close to the emperor. In Yuan Shanjian's heart, he was very disdainful of Yuan Bin's thoughts, and he didn't look down on this person very much.
Yuan Shanjian finally retracted his thoughts that had drifted somewhere, and turned to look at Yuan Hui. "The general is wounded, and he can't go to court for a while, but there are some things that can't be delayed. Since Gao Zhongmi misses his wife so much, the land of the tiger prison is barren, and it is not as prosperous as the capital, and I am afraid that it is not a place caused by nobles. Instead of letting him pick up his wife, it is better to let him come back. β
Yuan Hui came to report the news. He received a secret report from Yuan Yuyi, knowing that Gao Cheng wanted to win over Gao Zhongmi and wanted to use his wife Li Changyi, so he entered the palace to secretly play his matter, and wanted to discuss countermeasures with Yuan Shanjian.
It seems that Yuan Shanjian wants to win over Gao Zhongmi before Gao Cheng. Gao Zhongmi's resentment towards Gao Cheng is not a day or two, which is good for Yuan Shanjian. Gao Zhongmi also complained about his grievances to Yuan Shanjian before, although he didn't know how sincere he was, but he could use it, and Yuan Shanjian naturally wouldn't treat him like a confidant.
"The Lord has a great plan." Yuan Hui also felt that this plan was feasible. At that time, Gao Huan also relied on the Gao Qian brothers to increase his strength, and he can follow suit today. "If the Lord can preempt the general, the Lord's edict and the general's order, Gao Zhongmi will obey the Lord and abandon the general."
Yuan Hui remembered that according to what Yuan Yuyi said, Gao Cheng didn't seem to have the intention of immediately passing on Jun's life to Gao Zhongmi. I just want to use Lee's letter to convey it. Then the emperor's direct edict is tantamount to a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle for Gao Cheng. Gao Zhongmi was willing to obey the edict, and the imperial family had its own support, and it could be regarded as being able to fight against the general. (To be continued.) )
