Jinyang, belonging to the Department of Thorn History, is the Taiyuan County Administration.

Jinyang has never been an obscure city. Although the stormy Erzhu clan has become a cloud of smoke and has long been blown away by the breeze, Jinyang City has never been empty and has never lost its power. This is the veritable heart of the Great Wei, the prime minister Gao Huan has stayed here for a long time, and the roots of the Gao family seem to be stationed in Jinyang.

Tenglong Mountain, in the south of Jinyang City. The Manyun Pavilion built on the mountain was originally the residence of the great prime minister Gao Huan to escape the summer, and now it is the place where the eldest prince Gao Cheng studied behind closed doors.

was deposed as the son of the world, and lived in the mountains and forests far away from the hustle and bustle, and the courtyard of the hotel was deserted. Occasionally, there are only a few old ministers such as Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu. In addition to the eldest prince Gao Cheng and his wife Feng Yi Princess Yuan Zhonghua in Manyun Pavilion, several concubines, maidservants, and house slaves, and then there is only Cui Xian who accompanies the eldest prince to study behind closed doors.

Cui Siam's character Ji Lun is Cui Jishu's nephew. He also had a long history of being a prime minister, and he was deeply liked and trusted by the prime minister, but for some reason, he was blamed on the prime minister Gao Huan, and he was soon dismissed. In terms of experience, it is the same as the eldest son Gao Cheng. After the eldest prince moved to Jinyang, he had nothing to do, and Cui Xian met by fate, and was introduced by Cui Jishu, and the two met and talked very happily. Moreover, Cui Xian is extremely talented, his strategy is better than Cui Jishu, and he is loyal and upright, although he owes Huanhuan, but he is deeply liked by the eldest son Gao Cheng, and he happened to be Gao Cheng's master. Every time he meets him, Gao Cheng will gain something in his heart between words.

In the past, Cui Jishu always followed the son. But although Cui Xian is Cui Jishu's nephew, he has never met Gao Cheng. The state affairs are more overlapping, the court is shocked, Luoyang is abandoned, Yecheng rises, several twists and turns, Gao Cheng, who was abolished and idle at home, has the opportunity to meet Cui Xian, the two hit it off, Gao Cheng only felt that it was too late to see each other.

At this time, the Great Wei Dynasty, because the emperor Yuan Xiu abandoned the capital, the great prime minister Gao Huan ordered the new emperor Yuan Shanjian to move the capital to Yecheng, which is actually equivalent to only half of the country. Dacheng changed his mind because of his lovesickness, and served the new emperor Yuan Shanjian in the new capital Yecheng inch by inch, and was extremely respectful. The hundred officials were reset, Chen Li was listed, and Yecheng became prosperous with flowers.

Jinyang, who is not in the focus of sight, is extremely quiet all summer. When the autumn wind gradually rose, the days of Gao Cheng, the eldest son in the Manyun Pavilion on Longteng Mountain, who studied behind closed doors, were not short. And Cui Jishu rushed from Yecheng to Jinyang in the early morning of autumn, went up Longteng Mountain, and entered Manyun Pavilion.

The Manyun Pavilion Annex is not only luxurious, but also unique. Buildings, pavilions, pavilions, pavilions, fasting, and halls are complete, but not in the complexity and numerousness of the Xuan Pavilion, but it makes people marvel at the whimsical ideas and magic work hidden between the strange peaks and strange stones. From the bottom of the mountain, the undulating and steep mountains are covered by green shade, but they are sparse and sparse in the high and low places, and the cornices, fences, platforms, and cloud windows are half-hidden and half-exposed, which is really like a fairyland in the painting. Especially in the morning fog and sunset or after the smoke and rain and light snow, the entire Manyun Pavilion is like a heavenly palace on the clouds between the steaming clouds. The copper bells on the eaves and the laughter in the windows are more like the sound of the sky.

The autumn morning was cool, but Cui Jishu didn't feel it at all. He was already fat, and he had worked hard to climb the mountain, but at this time he was already sweating and heavily clothed, and he could only pant when he sat in the pavilion. When the breath is even, he looks around.

This pavilion is called "Chaorutei". It is said that this name was suddenly changed one day by the eldest prince Gao Cheng. The pavilion is ordinary, square pavilion, and a spire, but the location is excellent, on the top of a mountain. At this time, Siye looked out, and in the middle of summer, a thick green had turned into a mixture of yellow, green, and red, as if the leaves had become colorful.

The sun rose, the sky was clear, the sky was so blue as if it was going to be transparent, the sky was high and far, there was not a trace of clouds, which made people's hearts very calm. The breeze is refreshing, and it is cool and comfortable for a person like Cui Jishu who is extremely hot.

Cui Jishu retracted his gaze, refreshed, and asked his nephew: "Where is Lord Lang?" These days or reading? ”

Cui Xian is actually about the same age as his uncle, but he is thin and slender, which is in stark contrast to his uncle. He respectfully offered a cup of blue tea and replied, "Exactly." Lord Lang is studying behind closed doors every day these days, and it is quieter than when he first came. I don't see Lord Lang dancing the sword anymore. ”

Cui Xian glanced at his uncle and sat down. He is the same as his uncle, his skin is whiter than snow, but his face is delicate and more like a woman. Cui Xian didn't speak again, just sat silently, as if waiting for his uncle to explain something.

Cui Jishu only picked up the tea and sipped, immediately put the tea cup back on the stone table, raised his head and asked Cui Xian with a frown, "Why do you like to drink this kind of thing that only monks love to drink?" ”

Cui Xian said unhurriedly, "It's Lord Lang who likes to drink this, so I'll follow him." ”

"You!" Cui Jishu suddenly became angry, suddenly stopped, raised his head and looked up, searched around, as if he remembered something, and when he retracted his gaze and looked at Cui Xian again, his face was already heavy, and he roared, "What Chaolu Pavilion?" Like the morning dew, there is a lot of hardship in the past? How could Lord Lang have this idea for no reason? Are you secretly leading Lord Lang down the evil path? How exactly did you accompany Lord Lang to study? Don't you think about it for Lord Lang? Can Lord Lang help himself? Can you return if you want to? ”

The more Cui Jishu spoke, the more angry he became, and he questioned again and again, Cui Xian hurriedly got up and bowed down, and persuaded, "Uncle is angry." Although his attitude was respectful, his face was calm, and he did not explain more. It wasn't until he saw Cui Jishu's anger gradually subside that he said lightly, "Uncle Rong nephew returns." Lord Lang went up to Tenglong Mountain from Jinyang and lived in Manyun Pavilion. At first, I was weak and restless, even if I let my nephew accompany me to study, I was absent-minded. But Lord Lang is extremely intelligent, and he will soon be familiar with the classics, and all of them will be integrated, and now even his nephew will bow to Lord Lang. Lord Lang also likes to read Buddhist scriptures, and this is still the case recently. Lord Lang is a person who has a city in his heart, and he doesn't need others to pull him around, so he naturally understands what he should do, why should his uncle be so atmospheric, it is better to go with the flow. ”

Cui Jishu listened carefully to his nephew's words, and he actually understood in his heart that the eldest son, Gao Cheng, was a boy and a girl, just like a peerless woman; Extremely intelligent, superhuman, these are very incomparable. If it was said that the eldest prince was born from heaven, he had no doubt, but he couldn't let the eldest prince be so indifferent to the scene in front of him.

Cui Jishu looked up at Cui Xian, and his nephew was also looking at him. Cui Jishu suddenly asked, "How is my niece doing?" "This is talking about Choi Siam's sister Choi Shi. Cui's marriage to Gao's far branch Gao Shen, although there is a number of differences in appearance, but Gao Shen is now in the service and has opened a mansion, and he is very proud of the great prime minister Gao Huan.

Cui Xian had to reply, "I don't have any letters, I don't know how my sister is doing." ”

Cui Jishu stood up and said in a deep voice, "You can be an idle cloud and wild crane every day, but I'm afraid that your sister will wash her face with tears every day." Gao Shen is highly regarded by the prime minister, and now he has a close relationship with the second son, Taiyuan Gong, you don't want to think about why? Do you really have to wait until the day when the son changes hands? ”

Gao Shen is so vacillating, in the past, he used to be an uncle and ancestor to tie up his son Gao Cheng, but now he immediately turned to the powerful second son Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang, such a person will change his wife if he is rich, not to mention that Gao Shen is still a womanizer. How could Cui Shi not understand this truth, so he naturally washed his face with tears and worried about his future.

Cui Xian didn't speak. Both uncles and nephews are smart and understanding people, and Cui Xian is not really an idle cloud and wild crane, which is also something that both uncles and nephews know very well in their hearts.

"It doesn't matter who Gao Shen is, does my uncle know that the eldest prince misses the eldest son?" Cui Xian asked.

"There is no mention of the eldest prince." Cui Jishu sighed.

"That's just right." Cui Xian's face was still calm. "I didn't mention it in a word, because I thought too much about it."

These words made Cui Jishu, who was in the realm, suddenly brighten up in his heart. But then he worried, "The momentum of Taiyuan Gong is flourishing, and it is no better than the prince of that day." ”

"Why should my uncle learn from an ignorant villain and worry about the sky?" Cui Xian said, "The prime minister will not be controlled by others, and the more powerful the Taiyuan Gong is, the more he will be jealous." He was different from the son of the day. The son of the world is the prime minister who personally raised Jian Ba, but the prince of Taiyuan abandoned his father and brother and climbed the emperor's room, so he gained power, how could the prime minister not be afraid? ”

Cui Jishu didn't speak, thinking in his heart that this was indeed the case.

"The son of the prime minister who wants to be established must be a person who has the world in his heart, has lofty ambitions, and is ambitious and unambitious like the second son, who has a desire for power, no stomach, and no heart, how can the prime minister not understand it with such poisonous eyes. Do you know that the prime minister abolished the eldest prince's throne in order to motivate his heart and forbearance and gain what he can't? Cui Xian said his opinion unhurriedly.

Cui Jishu couldn't help but look at his nephew with admiration. The nephew is not only strategic, delicate, but also truly ambitious. Even if the eldest prince he relies on is for power, he also hopes to become a minister of society who guides the country in the court in the future.

"What you say makes sense, but after all, it is a family, the prime minister is deep in the city, and he often does things unexpectedly, so he can't be so sure that he must be the eldest prince. Do you know that the prime minister must not like a ruthless person like Taiyuan Gong? The Gao clan seems to be strong at this time, but in fact it is very easy to overturn, Erzhu's lessons from the past, doesn't the prime minister understand? "Cui Jishu is not an empty-minded person.

Both the uncle and nephew were silent. In fact, the key is still in the eldest son Gao Cheng himself.

"If it's really Lord Lang himself, he is indifferent, and he has no power to return to the sky." Cui Jishu sighed again. "Does Mrs. Lou have a letter? What else does Lord Lang do besides studying? ”

Cui Xian shook his head and lowered his tone. "The princess has no letters. Lord Lang doesn't do anything but study. The concubines are not close, and the singing and dancing are not eye-catching. ”

"What?!" Cui Jishu was shocked. He knows the eldest prince Gao Cheng too well. If even the concubines, singing and dancing can't make him a little tempted, it's really a big deal.

In fact, Mrs. Lou came by letter.

Descending from Chaorutei, there is a pine forest on the mountainside in the middle. A large open space was carved out in front of the pine forest, and there was a small pavilion called Pillow Pavilion. The platform in front of the Pillow Pavilion is directly facing the cliff, which is an excellent place to overlook the distance. Behind the Pillow Pavilion is the lush pine, which can be half-covered and half-embraced, and it is extremely cool here in summer. It's just that in autumn it's a little inappropriate, depressed and too cold and lonely.

The scale of the Pillow Xia Pavilion is not large, and one enters two rooms and is separated from the outside. The terrain is excellent, even if you sleep in the room, you can push the window to see the mountains and listen to the birdsong. Today, Emperor Yuan Shanjian's sister, Princess Yuan Zhonghua, the eldest prince Gao Cheng's wife, Feng Yi, lives here.

When he arrived in Jinyang, he went to Tenglong Mountain and lived in Manyun Pavilion, which was actually much more relaxed for Yuan Zhonghua than the former Prime Minister's Mansion in Luoyang. But she is more secluded, even less than before. Anyway, in the past, there was always a courtyard for her to entertain, but now Yuan Zhonghua has never played in the hotel of Tenglong Mountain because he is ashamed of his husband. There is no need to greet Mrs. Lou anymore, let alone greet Gao Yuanjun, so there is really no one to talk to. Living alone here, except for Ah Jiao, who is always by her side, even other servants are rare.

Mrs. Lou has never had a letter, but this time she actually sent someone to deliver a letter, which was sent to Princess Feng Yi Yuan Zhonghua, and she was specially instructed to let the maid Ah Jiao serve the princess to read the letter. The meaning is very clear, Mrs. Lou wants Ah Jiao to know what is written in this letter.

As it got higher, the door was open, and the sun shone in brightly, all the way to the front of the desk. Yuan Zhonghua sat on a hanging stool next to the desk and read Mrs. Lou's letters. The lady stood behind her and read silently. The letter was written on a silk silk, but it was actually only a few words, but Yuan Zhonghua held the silk and looked at it for a long time, and never looked up. Obviously, she had already understood the meaning of Mrs. Lou's letter, but she needed some more time to think, or for some other reason, she could not express her agreement with the meaning of Mrs. Lou's letter.

Ah Jiao stood behind her lady, and naturally she had already seen it. It's just that her and Mrs. have very different expressions, the corners of their lips are curled, and there is a smile on their faces that can't be hidden. But Madame did not speak, and she did not dare to say anything more.

The eldest prince Gao Cheng walked up the stone steps to the platform in front of the Pillow Xia Pavilion, and saw from a distance the scene of Yuan Zhonghua sitting on a hanging stool reading the letter in the open door. She only pulled a fallen ponytail and hung it on the side, playful and casual, but the original ordinary bun made Yuan Zhonghua extraordinarily charming. The pale crimson honeysuckle pattern on her body made her particularly delicate.

Yuan Zhonghua lowered his head and read the silk silk, but he didn't see his husband approaching at all. The two caged smoked eyebrows, as well as the black eyeliner that flew up because of the drooping eyes, were particularly attractive. It's just that the slightly plump cheeks still reveal the childishness that has not subsided.

"What does my mother say in her letter?" A crisp, loud and magnetic voice rang out.

When Yuan Zhonghua looked up, Gao Cheng had already stepped in and walked in front of her, but he didn't know when he came. When Yuan Zhonghua saw her husband, she was stunned at first, and then her face turned red, and she suddenly turned around and went to bed inside, without saying a word.
