Chapter Seventy-One: Staying Away

Gao Cheng is still dressed as a Confucian scholar, not like the powerful ministers of the Great Wei Dynasty who once overthrew a country and shook the world.

The servants and slaves in the mansion were running back and forth for the servants at this time, and when they saw the lord of Lang, they all felt that the lord of Lang seemed to be really going to retire and give way, and it was inevitable that they were all secretly resentful and wronged in their hearts for the lord of Lang.

Cangtou slave Liu Taozhi had long known that Lord Lang was going out of the city today, and he waited for Gao Cheng outside the courtyard where Princess Yu Jiulu lived early. Lord Lang is still the same as he always does these days, and he only lives here.

Gao Cheng came out very early, and he was already ready. It's just that Liu Taozhi didn't expect that Gao Cheng couldn't help but walk to the residence of the eldest princess Yuan Zhonghua.

It was too early, the door was closed, and I didn't know what was going on inside. I thought that Lord Lang was just taking a look, maybe he would go in and see the little county lord. Lord Lang loves the new little lord very much, and no one in the mansion knows the slaves and maids.

Gao Cheng didn't take a look at it and left, nor did he mean to call the door in. But he lingered for a long time, which made Liu Taozhi very incomprehensible.

Autumn is deep, and it is always sad to be sad. Every now and then, there is an autumn rain, and the coolness gradually becomes heavier. In the early morning, it was damp and cold, and outside the closed courtyard gate, you could see in the distance that the privet tree that was once leafy in the courtyard had also thinned its branches and gradually decayed.

I don't know why, Gao Cheng felt very heavy in his heart. Thinking about it carefully, he hadn't seen Yuan Zhonghua a few times since he came back from Yuzhou. Carefully combed it up, every time he came, he came to see innocence, and his mind was on innocence. There are also Bodhi and Asu.

Even Yuan Zhonghua's shadow faded in his heart. What he often thinks about recently in his heart is the past many years ago, and they are all what Yuan Zhonghua looked like when he was a child. At this time, I felt so uncomfortable that I almost choked in my throat, and I couldn't tell why.

Liu Taozhi, who was standing far away, only saw Lord Lang staring at the closed courtyard door, not knowing what he was thinking, and even his brows were locked. Saying that there is something and refusing to go in, saying that it is okay does not mean to leave.

Just as he was hesitating, the door of the courtyard, which had been closed, actually opened, as if in response to people's hearts. Gao Cheng stopped and watched, looking very focused. But I didn't expect that after the slaves came out, Yuan Yuyi would be behind.

Yuan Yuyi didn't expect Gao Cheng to be outside the door. Seeing him dressed in a white robe and wearing a scarf on his head, she was really discouraged and disappointed to the extreme. It seems that he is really going to retire. She was glad that she was lucky to still be a princess. She is from the Yuan clan, and this matter has never been so clear and clear in her heart.

Ti Nu followed behind Yuan Yuyi and reminded in a low voice, "The lady must not snub King Qi. Your Majesty ......" She stopped before she finished speaking, because Yuan Yuyi had already walked towards Gao Cheng.

"Why are you here?" Gao Cheng asked casually.

"I came to see the princess yesterday, and the princess left her concubine here." Yuan Yuyi replied softly.

"Oh, ......I see," Gao Cheng sighed as he looked at the half-closed courtyard door behind Yuan Yuyi. Where are you going so early? ”

Yuan Yuyi's heart was suddenly reminded, and she replied cautiously, "It's inconvenient for the concubine to stay here for a long time, and I want to go back to Dongbai Hall." While thinking in his heart, where is Gao Cheng going so early?

Gao Cheng didn't pretend to be unapologetic, and only said hastily, "It's good to do it yourself." With that, he turned and walked away.

Yuan Yuyi looked at his back and always felt that his last sentence was very strange.

The people in the courtyard didn't know that Lord Lang had been standing outside for a long time.

Ah Jiao's heart was relieved, but the mother Yuan Zhonghua, who was suddenly sick, suddenly got better again.

When I wake up in the morning, the sun rises, and I can see the scene outside through the glass window when I sit in front of the glass window, and I hardly need to light a lamp or candle.

At this moment, the two little Langjun and the little county lord in the house are not there. After the slaves and maids served and freshened, there was no longer any support. The sun was shining in the house, and the autumn mornings were especially beautiful.

Seeing that Yuan Zhonghua was no longer sick, and after the new makeup, she was extraordinarily charming, and she was no longer the little girl she used to be, and she couldn't help but admire in her heart.

"A few days ago, Empress Taishang sent someone to see the county lord and invited the princess to take the county lord into the palace, revealing that the meaning seemed to be intended to let the county lord ...... with the lord in the future" Ah Jiao guessed with her own thoughts, and said to Yuan Zhonghua in a low voice.

Ah Jiao looked at Yuan Zhonghua with a smile. She no longer mentions the matter of the king's favor, which is a foregone conclusion. Besides, if you talk too much, the eldest princess may feel more uncomfortable. So the topic became a taboo.

"How old is the county lord." Yuan Zhonghua replied. Her face is like a full moon, her pupils are like autumn water, so clear that people can't help but want to look at her for a moment. What she meant was that she didn't agree with it at all.

Ah Jiao thinks this is a good thing. The main mother gave birth to a son, and there was a little county lord, and the future of the son and the county lord in the future is the future of the master mother.

"I heard that the Emperor Taishang told the king about this first, and the king has already acquiesced." Ah Jiao reminded.

Yuan Zhonghua was silent.

I thought she was acquiescing, but unexpectedly, Yuan Zhonghua suddenly said, "This matter can't be decided by the king alone." Her tone was resolute.

Ajiao has never seen the mistress so decisive. She was also surprised.

On the outskirts of Yeseong, the cold in the valleys of Busan is heavier than in the city. When entering the valley, Gao Cheng abandoned the car and walked. Although the heart is not quiet, it is not like a mess without combing.

I just feel that the air is exceptionally fresh in the cold cold, and every breath makes people feel very refreshed. He even thought when he was distracted for a moment, no wonder his mother, the princess Lou, lived here and refused to leave, and no wonder there was a special scenery here that made people nostalgic.

Ascend the stone steps, which is a road leading to the gate of the cave temple. On the rock wall on the side of the roadside are continuous Buddha shrines, which are always offered to Buddha statues, and I don't know which dynasty and which generation are offerings.

Most of the Buddha statues are gorgeous, dignified and feminine. The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are also full of soft smiles, which makes people feel extremely cordial when they look at it. Gao Cheng naturally felt close in his heart.

The leaves on the trees in the mountains are colorful, red, yellow, and green. Autumn is not as vibrant as spring, not as splendid as summer, but the most long-lasting aftertaste. In autumn, there is an indescribable situation.

Gao Cheng is okay, he doesn't feel tired and bored when he immerses himself in it, but he can't wait for more moments like this.

Cui Jishu, who was following behind, was already fat, and after walking too many mountain roads, he was covered in hot sweat and panting.

Liu Taozhi, the guards, and the entourage were all far behind.

Seeing the mountain gate of the cave temple in front, Gao Cheng was not in a hurry to go up, and stopped on a flat ground in the stone steps.

Cui Jishu hurriedly followed.

Gao Cheng felt a sense of comfort after moving quietly. Cui Jishu has nothing but tiredness.

"Shuzheng, you can't even walk such a mountain road, if I order you to go to Shaomu Mountain to serve Master, wouldn't you be even more miserable?" Gao Cheng glanced at Cui Jishu, and then looked around at the pleasant mountains around him.

"Lord Lang is gracious, and the ministers are willing to follow Lord Lang, but they really can't live the days of doing homework in the morning and evening, carrying water and chopping wood." Cui Jishu was really afraid that Gao Cheng would have a whim. He didn't know what Gao Cheng was thinking now. Seeing that he is so unhurried and impatient, I don't know whether to be relieved or worried.

Gao Cheng turned around and looked at the closed mountain gate in the distance.

Cui Jishu breathed evenly, and came up to have something to say. Even though there was no one here, he was extra careful.

"These days, it's not just Lord Lang who is idle, but everyone in Yecheng is idler. Needless to say, Emperor Taishang can't live in Renshou Palace, but he is more comfortable than before. I don't know if it's because the time is not right, and those who should be sick and those who shouldn't be sick are sick. Sima Taiwei is so old that he follows King Xianwu like this, so he naturally should be sick. Those who have received the love of the lord of the Lang and the grace of tolerance and tolerance when they are greedy and have changed their ways are also just right. There are few people in the temple of Yecheng to Chaoyi, and there are a few lonely shadows, and people can't help but sigh in their hearts when they see it. Lord Lang, the timing is indeed just right, if you delay it any longer......" Cui Jishu paused, "Taiyuan Gong is already going crazy, and it is not good to be crazy a few more." ”

He used the old name and refused to use the title "King Gao" on Gao Yang.

Sima Taiwei refers to Sima Ziru. Those old people who have been following Gao Huan, the king of martial arts, have recognized him as the son of the world since Gao Cheng was ten years old. It has been more than ten years since Gao Cheng joined Ye Auxiliary Government, and I have seen his thunderous methods and felt his open-mindedness. Since Gao Huan's death, Gao Cheng has succeeded to the throne to the present, and he has basically turned these old ministers into his own people. Now that Gao Yang was suddenly born, everything was repeated, and these people naturally didn't want to.

"That idiot in the Renshou Hall is still delusional. My daughter also dares to plot? Yuan Simu often goes in and out of the palace these days, have you heard anything from him again? Gao Cheng put several people and things in his heart together, some of which he was sure of, and some of which he didn't.

"There are advantages and disadvantages to the death of the king of Jibei. Sun Taibao had good intentions and killed Yuan Hui to give Lord Lang a trouble, but he helped the eunuch, and Emperor Taishang was even more obedient to him. The county lord is delusional, presumably it is also the idea of this eunuch, and they are happy to pester Lang to stir up Lord Lang to fight with Taiyuan Gong. Cui Jishu was referring to Lin Xingren.

"What Emperor Taishang?! Fools are stupid, they think they are clever and calculating, and they are already in the calculations of others! Gao Cheng was suddenly furious.

"Yes...... Don't be angry...... Idiot ......" Cui Jishu was taken aback by his sudden anger, and he didn't know what he thought of, so he could only follow his words. Maybe it's because of the mention of the little county lord.

"Hunni is simply shameless." Gao Cheng said angrily again.

Cui Jishu's heart lit up, and he suddenly understood something that Gao Cheng might not have understood. Perhaps it is precisely because these things are vaguely involved in the mother of the little county lord, the eldest princess Yuan Zhonghua.

"General Gao Qiaoluo is really aggrieved. If it weren't for Sun Taibao, his legs would have entered the belly of the Taiyuan Duke at this time. Cui Jishu felt a little disgusted when he said these words, and he was also extremely shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Gao Yang to be so perverted. sighed, "Changyou appeased, repeatedly affirming the king's love for the governor, and the governor cried so much that he turned his back on it. ”

"Gao Renying, this puppet, knew that today, he should have been killed with a rod in Luoyang!" Gao Cheng really doesn't have a good impression of this so-called clan uncle at all.

"Actually, Lord Lang has nothing to worry about. Even Gao Zitong and Murong Shaozong, who were outside the history of assassination, also secretly expressed their hearts. Cui Jishu seemed to have inadvertently mentioned these words.

Yecheng fell into the Great Wei Dynasty, and the outside was safe and the inside was self-contained, this reason couldn't be simpler. It's just that sometimes even smart, shrewd people will inevitably make mistakes.

"Is Lord Lang really going to abolish the eldest princess and re-establish Princess Rouran as the princess?" Cui Jishu suddenly asked.

He knew that Gao Cheng had made a promise to Yu Jiulu.

Gao Cheng was surprised, but he couldn't understand, "Where did this come from?" ”

"Didn't Lord Lang promise Princess Rouran himself?" Cui Jishu was also surprised.

This is an embarrassing question, Gao Cheng did not answer. He also suddenly asked, "How is Master?" ”

Cui Jishu was also stunned when he heard him bring the topic here, but soon smiled and said, "The ancestor is good, always recite 'Ah Hui'." The treasure temple is excellent now, the incense is good, and it seems that the ancestor is also excellent. It's just that people don't know what they mean and don't understand. ”

Gao Cheng was extremely relieved, "Master was ushered by me from Jiankang, and I dare not take it personally." As he spoke, he walked to the mountain gate of the cave temple, and while folding a branch casually, he played with the leaves on it, and said casually, "Jiankang's current situation, fortunately, the master has not stayed in the Tongtai Temple." ”

In the Wei Palace, the Renshou Hall was both lonely and deserted.

The weather is getting colder, and the thick linen cloth is used to cover the windows, and the hall is even more dim and cannot see, and the lamps and candles must be lit in the morning and evening.

Lin Xingren commanded a few small eunuchs to do these miscellaneous duties, and he could no longer find the feeling of commanding in the past. Finally finished the matter, Xiang Yuan Shanjian complained, "King Gao is more ruthless than King Qi, and he is even more stingy with the Lord, and even the people who serve the Lord have only left these few, how can it be enough?" ”

Yuan Shanjian felt that the hall was dull and dim. He was anxious to get out, but now he couldn't even go to the Zhaotai Temple in the garden. Gao Yang is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Hearing Lin Xingren's words, he couldn't help sneering, "I'm afraid that he has long been eyeing Lone's life, what else is there to serve Lone?" ”

Lin Xingren glanced at it quickly, and no one was approaching, and hurriedly asked, "Does King Qi really want to stay out of the matter?" ”

Seeing resentment, Yuan Shan whispered angrily, "This puppet minion. At first, he pretended to be indifferent, and now he is afraid to avoid it. Knowing that Gu wanted to practice for him, he hid in Busan silently. Isn't he going to hide? Lone didn't let him hide. ”

Lin Xingren was also full of hatred for Gao Cheng. sighed, "The eldest princess was raised by him, and it is not as affectionate as the queen to the lord." ”

Yuan Shanjian also thought so in his heart, and coincided with Lin Xingren.

"Your Majesty, if you have to deal with it now, I'm afraid that King Qi will not help Your Majesty." Lin Xingren simply leaned closer, lowered his voice and said, "The little county lord is the heart and soul of King Qi...... There are also the prince and the eldest princess......" Lin Xingren said a few words intermittently.

"I'm afraid it's not easy to get close to Lonely." Yuan Shan repented. He was just too hasty, which led to today's situation.

"Isn't there still a queen? The queen intends to marry the Qi family, and the eldest princess is willing or not, she always has to enter the palace. Let Princess Langya lead the eldest princess to ......" Lin Xingren's voice became lower and lower.

Yuan Shanjian looked up at Lin Xingren, and his eyes lit up.

In the cave temples of Busan, the gates are closed on weekdays.

The mountain gate is closed, isolated from the world, and there are other caves in the temple.

Zheng Dache lived here for a long time with Mrs. Lou, the princess.

Rouran married the princess to the late King Wu as the concubine, and after Mrs. Lou asked to abdicate the throne, not only her name, but even the palace was abandoned, so she simply moved to this cave temple to live. This is a very clever move by extraordinary people, and it dodges a lot of right and wrong.

Until the death of King Xianwu, Mrs. Lou did not re-enter Yecheng or return to Jinyang. Zheng Dache didn't know what his wife was feeling. All in all, it won't be too pleasant. She felt that this kind of behavior of refusing to see each other again in life and death had a grudge against the late King Xianwu.

It's not just Mrs. Lou, isn't she a smart person? That's why I moved here.

At first, I was still thinking about prosperity and grace, but then I put it aside. It's not because of the dead heart, it's because I found that Mrs. Lou is really the one who is in the account, so that she is the one who wins the battle.
