Mulan Fang, the westernmost part of Dongbaitang, is now the residence of Yuan Yuyi, the general's favorite wife.

Originally, few people came to Dongbaitang, except for the general's henchmen, not everyone could enter the hall. The Mulan Fang in a corner is even quieter, so that you won't see an outsider for many days. The slaves who served Yuan Yuyi had never seen such a quiet girl. She could sit alone all day without saying a word. Invite her to eat and eat, and invite her to sleep peacefully. If no one invites her, she doesn't even seem to know about hunger and sleepiness.

There are many rare Qihua Yao grass planted in the courtyard. This was all transplanted by Cui Jishu after Yuan Yuyi moved to Mulan Fang. This season is full of flowers, Yuan Yuyi wears a thin plain gauze skirt and stands in the courtyard sprinkled with sunlight. To this day, whenever she is alone in the splendid bushes of this Mulan Fang, she still vaguely feels that the past is like a dream.

Yes, she was a concubine from a down-and-out background in the clan, and she was a dancing girl for the Sun Teng family of the later general at that time. Ever since she met him, she was fascinated by him at first sight, and she couldn't even understand why. Maybe it's because of his alluring looks; Maybe it's because of his uninhibited and domineering; Or nothing at all. In fact, he didn't know that she had already seen him several times long before the later general Sun Teng dedicated her to him. In the palace, in the hussar general Yuwentai's mansion...... But he didn't remember a single one.

When he finally knew who she was, she thought she could be vassalized by his side henceforth. As a humble body, she didn't have the luxury, she just wanted to be by his side. She has nothing but sincerity towards him. She thought he would care about her sincerity, at least a little touched. However, no.

It's not that he doesn't care, it turns out that what he cares about is someone else, it's his princess, the real princess of the clan, and now the princess's brother has become the emperor of Great Wei. is also the daughter of the clan, how far is she from the princess? She was out of reach. What made her even more sad and desperate was that she would never reach the position she had in his heart.

In this case, it is inevitable that they will be sacrificed. The prince is willful, and in order to control the princess and the princess, he can even lose his own position as the prince, let alone her? In the end, it was inevitable to blame her, and after the change, the general Sun Teng was afraid of disaster, so she was driven out of the house by Sun Teng. Because in Sun Teng's eyes, she is a disaster, a disaster that makes the son of the world show his deeds.

Later, I heard that he went to Jinyang, did he look for her? But she could only live in the Luoyang market.

After a long, long time, someone suddenly found her. But it was not her original master, General Sun Teng, nor him, it was Wang Yuanhui of Jibei. Her fate is always up to her. The king of Jibei ordered people to continue to teach her dance and music. It's the only thing she's been doing since she was a kid. King Jibei treated her very well, better than anyone before. Don't let her call herself a slave. knew that she was born as a concubine of the clan, and she never disliked her, and she still regarded her as her daughter. I don't know if it's right or not, it's ridiculous to think about it. She didn't want to ask anything, knowing that when the time came, King Jibei would definitely explain everything to her.

This opportunity has been waited for a long time. Until one day her "father" told her that he would let her enter the palace to dance for the general, so that she must practice hard. When the time comes, I will see the timing and give her to the general. She is also a gift that can be given at any time. The king of Jibei told her that the general was the prince of the king of Bohai who she had served in the past.

said that she would not be tempted for him anymore, but she still didn't do it, but she learned to hide herself.

The king of Jibei told her many things about the great generals in great detail. There is no reliable connection between the emperor and the general, there will always be a misunderstanding, it is the emperor who knows that she was the person the general likes, so he specially ordered someone to find her back and give it to the general as a gesture of goodwill.

And what she has to do is to serve the general as well as she can. The general is in a high position, but it is inevitable that there will be a lot of troubles and pressure, and she must be able to make him forget his worries. Then, if the general has any dissatisfaction with the emperor and the clan, she must learn to speak for the emperor and the clan without a trace. She naturally has this responsibility, she is only from the clan, not to mention that her "father" King Jibei has a life-saving grace for her. If it weren't for King Jibei, she would have starved to death on the streets. If necessary, she would tell the king of Jibei about the general's actions.

It dawned on her. But she didn't remember what she had promised King Jibei, only one thing: she could finally see him again. She doesn't want to be that lowly dancing girl anymore, so low that she can't even be worthless with her sincerity. She also didn't want him to be a general, the prince of the King of Bohai.

She was disappointed at the first sight of him, and didn't see the slightest surprise in his eyes, as if she was an ordinary dancing girl, he might or may not know her, and in his heart it didn't make a difference, it didn't matter. But in the end, he was still calculated by the emperor and the king of Jibei, and it was he who took her away from the mansion of his younger brother Taiyuan Gong. How many girls have mistaken themselves for him? Even a beauty like the Duchess of Taiyuan, who is unique in the world, is not exempt from vulgarity. He didn't care at all, he probably didn't have a heart.

But she guessed wrong. He has. If she was still the Yuan Yuyi of the past, she would be desperate again. His princess is obviously just an ordinary girl, but she can have his sincerity. For the sake of his concubine, he didn't even want to give her the identity of a concubine, and she still wouldn't be his person after all.

Did she ever resent Yuan Zhonghua? Or should I resent Sun Teng? Resentment of Yuan Hui? What's the use of holding grudges? She wanted him, only him. She pretended not to recognize only him, she didn't want him to be a general, and she didn't want to be the Yuan Yuyi she used to be.

Yuan Yuyi's body was warm and comfortable by the sun. She looked up into the distance, and beyond the low wall, she could clearly see the half-covered and half-exposed eaves of the Crane Hall. She knew that he was in the Crane Hall at the moment. What exactly does he know about her? In fact, she was not too worried or worried about this.

The sun is just right outside, but there is a ray of coldness inside the Minghe Hall.

The hall was very bright, and the plain screen hanging from the window filtered the overly dazzling sunlight outside. The interior is arranged like a study, which is delicate and elegant, not as splendid as the general's mansion. The wall is full of books, and there is a large bed, and there is no tent on the bed, which can be sat and bed. This queen bed can accommodate several people. At this moment, the general Gao Cheng and his henchman Chen Yuankang, the general of the Chinese army, were sitting on the bed and whispering. Between the two of them is a low table for a bed.

"King Gao said that the general was too anxious." Chen Yuankang explained to Gao Cheng in detail the process of returning to Jinyang to report the matter of Taifu Weijing to Prime Minister Gao Huan.

Gao Cheng, who was sitting opposite Chen Yuankang, leaned his elbows on the low table and supported his forehead with his hands. Chen Yuankang only saw his small crown of hair and a slightly frowning brow. He waited quietly for Gao Cheng's orders.

Gao Cheng was puzzled in his heart. The punishment of corruption was originally discussed with his father Gao Huan, and he also said that he would punish a few cronies to show the officials. The reason why his uncle, Taifu Wei Jing, was chosen was because Wei Jingzhi's bribery was ten times or a hundred times more than that of others. Both he and his identity are the most appropriate examples of police service now. It might cause trouble by punishing Wei Jing, which was something he and his father had long thought of. But now, what does this phrase "too anxious" mean? He suddenly felt alone.

Seeing that Gao Cheng had been silent, Chen Yuankang had some eyebrows in his heart, and reminded, "The minister heard that the county monarch has been crying repeatedly when he asked King Gao and the princess, and the county monarch has been seriously ill for a long time, and King Gao is inevitably sad. ”

Gao Cheng's heart also suddenly lit up, and he raised his head, "State affairs are state affairs, and family affairs are family affairs." ”

Chen Yuankang immediately understood what Gao Cheng meant. On state affairs, Wei Jing should be punished heavily, if it is about family affairs, even if it is an offense by a junior, it is just a door-to-door atonement, what else can it be. Wei Jing and Gao Loujin want to confuse these two meanings, so he wants to understand them separately.

"Maybe the son of the world is going to be wronged." Chen Yuankang sighed.

"If I don't accept it, do I want my father to accept it?" Gao Cheng didn't think this was a big problem, and he didn't think that Wei Jing, the uncle, really dared to do anything to him. "If I have received it, then he will also receive what he ought to receive." The implication is that if he himself receives the family law, then Wei Jing must accept the national law.

"The prince of the world doesn't have to worry too much, even Guangping Gong is dissatisfied with Taifu, and he can't be brought to justice, Taifu has been abandoned by everyone, but at this time, everyone is afraid of the law, so there will be people who are willing to speak for Taifu, and it is also the intention of protecting themselves." The Guangping Gong that Chen Yuankang is talking about refers to Gao Cheng's other uncle, Ku Digan. Kudi hated that he couldn't be the lieutenant of Yushi himself, and punished Wei Jing with his own hands.

As for the others, depending on their circumstances, they can be separated by a difference. If the villain is not well compared, he will be self-defeating when the time comes. Gao Cheng means that different people should be treated differently, and since everyone's situation is different, the method of punishment is naturally different. When there is a difference between them, each has to plan for his own sake, and he can no longer take care of others. Some people need to be severely punished to the end, and some people are just small punishments.

"In the case of King Gao, the prince still has to make his words clear. In a few days, the king will return to Yecheng, and the prince should speak in person to show his heart. Chen Yuankang feels that this communication between father and son cannot be replaced by others.

"This is natural. It's all on me alone, so I naturally want to protect my father. Gao Cheng did not hesitate at all. There is no room for him to hesitate, at this time, he can only stand up, regardless of the consequences, regardless of personal interests, in order to keep the throne of the world, and even to keep the authority of the Gao family. It seems that it is not possible to be wronged.

"It's good that the son of the world understands." Chen Yuankang knew that he had a plan in his heart, and he couldn't persuade him any more.

Chen Yuankang quit.

Gao Cheng slowly lay down, and quietly closed his eyes and thought about it.

Now Bao Gao's clan will inevitably damage himself. But if you protect yourself, you may lose the Gao family. If Gao's is damaged, can he still keep it? It seems that he is in a high position, pointing to the temple, but in fact, this position is fragile. If he really can't keep himself, will those people who have been low-eyed and flattering still be the same as before? Will those who secretly hate him fight back? At that time, he may really not even be able to keep Yuan Yuyi, the dancing girl. Even their own lives. There had been strange things several times before, and he felt that danger was coming, but fortunately, he turned the danger into a disaster. Chen Yuankang must have known.

The emperor is different from the outside, and he welcomes him on the face, what is the actual heart? There was an undercurrent surging in the clan, and he had long wanted to be unfavorable to him. His father's old age did not take him seriously, despised and despised him, and said that he was a yellow-mouthed breast. Most of the officials stand on the dry shore to watch the water potential. Caught up with Tongguan and was defeated, and Dou Tai died.

There are some things that even Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu don't have to say. It was only when he was alone that he felt stressed when he calmed down and closed his eyes. In addition to the second brother Gao Yang, the other younger brothers also began to grow up slowly. Father probably didn't have Yi Li's mind, right?

The emperor and the king of Jibei sent this Yuan Yuyi to him, what did they want? Want to protect themselves? Or do you want his life?

What a general, what a son, I thought I had a lot of power in my hands, but only when the crisis came, I knew that I had nothing in my hands, and my hands were empty. If he is not a general, if he is not a prince, then who is he?

Suddenly, I heard the sound of soft, slow footsteps.

Gao Cheng opened his eyes, listened carefully, and then slowly got up and sat down. He took a book in his hand and pretended to read it. At this time, the footsteps were getting closer and closer. He already knew that someone had opened the veil and walked in. When I looked up, it was Yuan Yuyi. He watched as she approached.

Yuan Yuyi walked to the bed, she stretched out her hand and took the book from his hand, and then also got on the bed and sat in his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, curled up in his arms, and called softly, "Childe." ”

The midday sun is getting stronger. For some reason, the sun seems to shine brightly today. Seeing that the body of the princess Yuan Zhonghua was crumbling, Ah Jiao was so anxious that the six gods had no master.

Moonlight also stood outside all the time. But without the orders of Concubine Lou and Junjun, no one dared to help Yuan Zhonghua up. Moonlight ordered someone to bring water for the princess to drink. Yuan Zhonghua refused.

Suddenly, a slave from the General's Mansion hurriedly came in and went straight to Ah Jiao, whispering in her ear.

"How can you not find the son?" Ah Jiao was surprised. She also felt that Lord Lang was a little alienated from the princess these days. But there was no contradiction between them.

"Is there anyone close to the Son that you can ask? Will know. The moonlight next to her couldn't help but remind her.

This reminded Ah Jiao, and hurriedly ordered, "Go and invite Cui Shilang, he must know, please be sure to find the prince and tell the prince to come quickly." ”

The slave and maid hurried away again.

It seems that I don't know when I found the prince Gao Cheng, but in the scene in front of me, Gao Loujin, the county monarch inside, obviously has no intention of giving up.
