Chapter 90: Great Wei Rouran Ends the Mandarin League (8)
Cui Jishu ignored it and cried again, "The general has worked hard for the Great Wei Sheji, why don't you worry about the general?" It's not that the general wants to abandon His Royal Highness, the war between the two Wei is imminent, and the neighbors in the north and south are eyeing each other, and the general is still bent on protecting His Highness in this difficult situation, but he refuses to say many things to His Highness, that is, he regards His Highness as a treasure in his heart, and he is afraid that His Highness will be in suspense day and night. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Cui Jishu's words silenced everyone.
Gao Cheng turned sideways and refused to look at Yuan Zhonghua again.
Yuan Zhonghua didn't expect Cui Jishu to pour out like this. Tears poured down her choked up.
"Thousands of mistakes are the minister's fault, you can't share the worries and hard work for the general, you can't contribute to the society, you don't have a face in the temple, so that the general is struggling, and you have to be calculated everywhere. How many pairs of eyes are staring at the general, how many people want to be unfavorable to the general, only His Royal Highness can make the general smile, the general can't, the minister bows and pleads for the general, His Royal Highness ...... "Cui Jishu made a long speech again, and it can be regarded as a lot of effort and good words. It's an exaggeration, and it seems to be sincere.
The Ah Jiao behind Yuan Zhonghua knew that Cui Shilang was Lord Lang's confidant, and Lord Yan couldn't say these words himself, and others didn't dare to say them, so it was really difficult for Cui Jishu to say so directly, frankly and thoroughly. Naturally, without Lord Lang's instructions, Cui Shilang would not have done this, and Lord Lang could have this heart for the eldest princess, and Ah Jiao was really moved.
These words Yuan Zhonghua sounded different from Ah Jiao. In an instant, all the bad things in Gao Cheng's heart came to naught, and he blamed himself for not being considerate of him enough and making him embarrassed. Cui Jishu's words were rooted in Yuan Zhonghua's heart, making her feel distressed.
Because I have been pampered by Gao Cheng's side since I was a child, I only know the fine clothes and food, but I don't know the temples and rivers, not to mention the difficulties and dangers. Although Zhifujun was born in a high family and was in a high position, he never really thought about his difficulty, Cui Jishu's words reminded Yuan Zhonghua of many clues and details in the past, and he was shocked.
Gao Cheng was originally satisfied with what Cui Jishu said, but when he heard him say something like "bow and plead for the general", he knew that he was secretly deceitful and had revenge, so he was angry and funny. At this time, Fang came over and helped Cui Jishu up from the ground, and said with a smile, "Brother Uncle Zheng doesn't have to act anymore, I will let you come to persuade you tactfully, you make the princess even more sad." I don't dare to believe in my brother's talent anymore, and I don't dare to work hard for my brother, so you should go back to your home. ”
At this time, Cui Jishu immediately put away his tears, tired and sweaty, gasped and smiled, "The general is really a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey, and the birds are good and the bow is hidden." Shu Zheng bothered to work hard here for the sake of the general, and when the general ran out of food, Shu Zheng didn't even reward him for food, so he pushed Shu Zheng out of the door......"
Ah Jiao was surprised, and she didn't know that Cui Shilang still had the ability to change in an instant.
Gao Cheng had already pushed Cui Jishu out.
Only then did she understand and took the slaves and maids out.
Yuan Zhonghua also understood that Cui Jishu was deliberately pretentious, and she felt embarrassed. Seeing Gao Cheng send everyone out, he walked to her step by step, and then his heart beat like a drum.
Gao Cheng took Yuan Zhonghua's hand, held it in his palm, looked down at the golden step on her head when she lowered her head, and whispered, "If Your Highness doesn't go back, the lower officials will move to the pavilion to live with Your Highness." Otherwise, it will make the worm see the opportunity. ”
Yuan Zhonghua raised his head in surprise, but he didn't expect that he really believed that Bald Tujia was sincerely asking for marriage. No matter how ignorant she is, she understands that the son of Rouran just wants to cling to the Great Wei Emperor's family.
The moment Yuan Zhonghua raised his head, Gao Cheng couldn't hold back any longer, lowered his head and kissed it, his arm wrapped around Yuan Zhonghua's waist. After a long time, they raised their heads, and both of them gasped slightly.
"Your Highness doesn't go back, Ah Hui is in turmoil." He knelt down in her ear, "The lower officials don't dare to let His Highness be wronged again." ”
Yuan Zhonghua turned his head slightly and refused to face him, nor did he speak. Although my mind is different from the previous few days, I know that I will definitely go back with him, but I feel very unhappy. When I go back today, I will have to endure many unbearable hardships as before.
Thinking about what Gao Cheng said last night, he would not abandon Yuan Yuyi, so he couldn't stop crying. When, unconsciously, that dancing girl took away his husband's heart and possessed everything she had step by step?
A little disheartened, he said lightly, "The general asked Cui Shilang to act so hard in front of me, if I don't appreciate it and refuse to go back, won't the general be angry again?" ”
Gao Cheng knew that it was right when he heard her tone, so he smiled and said, "Your Highness, here Uncle Zheng has more face than me." ”
Outside, Ah Jiao only heard two people chattering inside, thinking that the eldest princess had already allowed to return home, which finally made her heart fall to the ground. quietly instructed the slave and maid to pack up their belongings and prepare to go home, but he had mixed feelings in his heart.
Since the eldest princess left the house, first Dongbaitang, and then rushed to the pavilion, there was no fixed place. The most important thing is that the continuous high fever is always in the sick, which makes people suspenseful. And without the support of the general, even the imperial doctor's orders are no longer obeyed, which is what makes Ah Jiao feel the most.
Now that he is going home, his worries are different. Ah Jiao also knew that Princess Langya of Dongbaitang was also pregnant, and then remembered that there was still a Kang Ji in the house who was waiting to give birth, the temper of the prince was erratic, and the identity of the eldest princess was sensitive, so she couldn't tell when she would be affected by the undercurrents in the palace and the house...... It all revolves around the prince Gao Cheng, but it is always Yuan Zhonghua who is hurt.
Bald Tujia knew that Gao Cheng had already returned home with Yuan Zhonghua, and he didn't pay too much attention to it. At this time, the big thing in his heart was to promote the marriage of King Gao and his sister Moonlight.
said that it was the meaning of Khan's father, which was naturally his excuse. When I think about it, I always feel that this thing is cleverly conceived. King Gao is the real minister of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and the only person who can call the wind and rain in the Eastern Wei Dynasty is Gao Huan. Thinking about the mistake of marrying his sister to the puppet emperor Yuan Bao Torch of the Western Wei Dynasty, he regretted it in his heart. I felt that I should have made up my mind not to back down at that time, and let my sister marry the prime minister Yu Wentai.
With the lessons of the past, we can't afford to go wrong this time. He thought about it and thought it was indeed appropriate. King Gao is in his prime, but in fact, his talent does not look worse than the general Gao Cheng, and may even be stronger than Gao Cheng. Princess Gao does not have any foreign power, and it is easy to remove. The person who is worried is her son, the general Gao Cheng, and now it seems that Gao Cheng is not a person who has no importance in his heart, and he can basically rest assured.
Next, he waited for the moonlight to arrive in Yecheng, and immediately carried out the wedding ceremony, he wanted to watch King Gao and his sister marry here, and ensure that the moonlight must be favored by King Gao. He believed that even if King Gao was afraid of Rouran's power at the beginning, he would definitely really like Moonlight later, after all, Moonlight was outstanding and extraordinary. We must not allow the incident of Luoying to happen again.
After a heavy rain in late autumn, the morning air is exceptionally crisp. The chill is getting thicker, and the yellow leaves that have been knocked down by the rain in the yard are spread all over the ground, which makes people feel sad about autumn.
The faint haze fills the air, giving this late autumn morning a kind of mystery that is preoccupied. At this time, the palace of King Gao was clean and tidy, and the slaves and servants were in and out in an orderly manner, ready to welcome the princess Zhaojun to Yecheng.
Zheng Ji walked out of the courtyard where King Gao lived, and just after leaving the courtyard, she suddenly stopped and turned around. At this time, the courtyard door behind her had just been hidden, and she happened to see the thin bamboo bushes in the courtyard, and suddenly felt melancholy, just last night's lingering seemed to be far away from the real thing. There was a bad premonition in her heart that made her a little sad.
Zheng Ji slowly turned around, thinking that Concubine Lou and Er Zhu would come to Yecheng in the next two days, and King Gao would not belong to her alone. Although she didn't dare to think so, there was always a contradiction between what she hoped and what she thought.
When she looked up again, her heart jumped. Gao Cheng, the son of the world, was already about to walk in front of her. She immediately noticed that Gao Cheng also looked preoccupied.
Gao Cheng really didn't pay much attention at first, but at this time, his eyes lit up, and he didn't expect to meet Zheng Dache again so soon. He didn't hesitate to catch up.
"The general came just in time." Zheng Ji stopped and smiled slightly. At this time, King Gao was at leisure, and he was refreshed in the early morning, and he was in a good mood.
Gao Cheng also smiled at her, "It's all the ladies who serve well, Cheng thanks the ladies a lot." ”
Zheng Dache didn't speak, looking at Gao Cheng and smiling, his expression was rare to be so elegant.
Gao Cheng looked at Zheng Dache thoughtfully.
The words of the two people feel inexplicable to others at first glance, and everything you say and I seem to have nothing to do with what the other party says, which is the tacit understanding between the two people. This kind of heart is surprising, and it is really not easy to have.
"If the general has something, the concubine is willing to do a small job, as long as the princess and the general don't dislike it." Or Zheng Dache whispered. This is also a sign of the heart. Since Gao Cheng turned her brother's affairs into nothing, Zheng Dache felt a sincere gratitude in his heart for this great general, who was no longer in the past. In contrast, she felt that King Gao was cold, which made her feel sad from time to time.
Zheng is the favorite of King Gao, Gao Cheng is a person who has something in his heart at this time, and he is naturally grateful for her initiative to show goodwill, and said with a smile, "The lady is kind, Cheng is grateful, there will be a day of fatigue, I hope the lady will help." ”
"The general doesn't have to be so outside." Zheng Dache's voice was softer. After saying that, he took his leave and left.
Gao Cheng also went into the courtyard.
It was slightly cold in the room, and Gao Cheng saw his father walking out of the inner bed wearing only hakama.
Gao Huan's appearance is indeed leisurely and leisurely, very energetic. Seeing his son's neat crown but worried look, he didn't say anything in his eyes. Indeed, compared with the two, Gao Cheng looked a little tired. After he saw the ceremony, the father and son were not polite, and naturally sat down on the big bed.
The slave and maid naturally knew the rules, and they all withdrew from the cow bone milk soup that the prince liked.
Only father and son were left in the room, and it was quiet all at once. Gao Cheng sat cross-legged, bowed his head and held the bowl, just drinking the steaming beef bone milk soup, as if he didn't know how to burn.
Gao Huan also sat cross-legged, holding the bowl in his hand, just sipping from time to time, and then looked at his son. Gao Cheng lowered his head, and he could only see his slightly slender and extraordinarily delicate eyebrows, like a woman, which reminded Gao Huan of Gao Cheng's mother, Concubine Lou. Although Gao Huan himself is also well-groomed, he is considered to be outstanding, but he is different from Gao Cheng, who is as beautiful as a woman in the city. Gao Cheng is very much like her mother, Concubine Lou, and her deceased sister, Gao Changjun.
There are no outsiders, and both father and son are profligate and don't pay much attention to manners.
Gao Huan put down the bowl in his hand, and most of the beef bone milk soup in it was left, and he didn't have Gao Cheng's enthusiasm for this kind of thing. Staring at his son, he asked, "What did the general say to the Zheng clan just now?" ”
Gao Cheng was suddenly startled and put down the copper bowl in his hand, as if he was burned by the hot beef bone milk soup inside, and he shook his right hand a little unnaturally.
Gao Huan glanced at the already empty copper bowl, and raised his eyes to look at Gao Cheng.
Gao Cheng knew that his father was suspicious, and immediately thought of the Zheng family's favor. He steadied himself and decided not to explain the question, for fear that the more he talked, the more he would not understand. What's more, he didn't come today to say that he didn't have any feelings for the Zheng family at all, but there was just a tacit understanding between them. This tacit understanding is only based on the fact that each has its own interests in mind.
"Cheng didn't think about joking with Gao." Gao Cheng raised his head, his face was strained without a hint of a smile, and his green eyes were burning at Gao Huan.
In Gao Huan's eyes, this look was like a child pretending to be an adult, and he felt funny in his heart, but on the surface, he was shocked, and deliberately pretended to be surprised and asked, "The general took all the concubines home, and I heard that the prince of He Rouran also talked about wine, what else is there to worry about?" ”
Gao Cheng frowned and stared at Gao Huan in disbelief.
Gao Huan also stared at him, silent on the surface, and tried his best to laugh in his heart.
Gao Cheng suddenly sighed. "King Gao is naturally happy to welcome the happy event, but he doesn't care about the embarrassment in his heart."
Gao Huan was confused by him. He also knew about Gao Cheng and Bald Tujia's drinking, and knew that it must be a complete story. Although he didn't know what they said, he believed in his heart that his son had his own strategy, so he let it go. At this time, I didn't understand what Gao Cheng meant.
"King Gao naturally likes the new princess, but Cheng wants to change his mother, how to explain to his mother?" Gao Cheng sat down with his head bowed with a look of embarrassment, no longer looking at his father. At this time, he snickered in his heart.
Gao Huan really stared at his son in surprise this time, and asked in disbelief, "What does the general mean?" ”
Gao Cheng still lowered his head, "Why should King Gao pretend to be puzzled again, Anagui will send her daughter here in the near future, King Gao has Princess Rouran as the new princess, where does Ah Hui feel sorry for her mother at this time?" His voice sounded a little sad, his shoulders shook slightly, and he thought he was crying silently.
Gao Huan said angrily, "The good thing that the general did and kept his wife was exchanged for me?" Ignoring my situation? Gao Huan picked up the copper bowl in front of him, as if he wanted to throw it directly at Gao Cheng's head, but he may have changed his mind in an instant, and he held back again. Most of the bowls of beef bone milk soup in it were shaken out and spilled everywhere. The milk soup with beef bones was already cold, and the condensed white grease shook out of the bowl and fell on the low table and Gao Huan's clothes.
Gao Cheng raised his head at this time, but he was not afraid at all, looking at Gao Huan's angry face with a smile on his face. It turned out that he was just holding back a smile with his head down. (To be continued.) )
