Chapter 49: The Swallows Between the Beams Are Too Ruthless (Part II)
Emperor Yuan Xiu came out. Cui Jishu trembled in his heart and glanced at Gao Cheng. Gao Cheng was calm and composed, as if nothing had happened.
"Your Majesty!" Yuan Mingyue rushed to Yuan Xiu's side angrily and aggrieved, and fell into Yuan Xiu's arms. Seeing her so embarrassed, Yuan Xiu was furious in his heart, supported Yuan Mingyue, and instructed the palace maids, "Send Zhaoyi back and serve her life." The palace maids got the emperor's order, and hurriedly helped Yuan Mingyue and the injured Qian Qian to retreat.
Yuan Xiu waved his hand to the eunuchs behind him, signaling them not to follow, he stepped under the tree, at this time the sun was high, the daylight was just right, he looked at Gao Cheng, and asked quietly, "It's always something wrong for Gao Cheng to break into the inner garden, right?" ”
Gao Cheng walked up a few steps and gave a big salute, "Among the ministers, Gao Cheng greets His Majesty the Emperor." Cui Jishu also saluted after him.
Yuan Xiu paced over again unhurriedly, bent down and reached out to help Gao Cheng up from the ground. Gao Cheng got up and suddenly felt that the strength on his arm was extremely strong, and it hurt so much. When he looked up, he saw Yuan Xiu's face was pale, and there was hatred in his eyes, "Lone has said a long time ago that she is a lone person, and you are not allowed to touch it." ”
Gao Cheng still smiled, as if he had never suffered from this brute force, and only said, "Not only Zuo Zhaoyi, but the Great Wei world is also the Lord, as long as the Lord can keep it." ”
"Is Shizhong making fun of Lonely?" Yuan Xiu slowly let go of his hand, and the vicissitudes of life in his eyes were in his eyes, "Lonely is already a person with no longevity, only this one." If the servant refuses to leave her alone, the lonely will definitely do his best to fight the high servant to the end. As for the ...... of the world" is such an ethereal thing for him. "It's not Lone who controls the world now, nor is it the Yuan family, it's the prime minister and the high servant, right?" Yuan Xiu's tone sneered.
"The world is not a joke. The Gao family is the minister of the society, supporting the Yuan imperial family, and has no intention of disrupting politics. If the Lord always has doubts, please think carefully and forgive me, if there is no Gao family loyal to the Son of Heaven, the world will not know how many people are called emperors and how many people are kings. Gao Cheng was always unhappy when he saw that Yuan Xiu was grateful for the times, and finally couldn't help but say, "The minister thinks that if he is not on the throne, he will be the son of heaven, and he can make Siyi surrender." Only with the power of the Son of Heaven can people be happy and convinced. ”
Yuan Xiu didn't speak, and suddenly said again for a long time, "Why did Gao Shizhong come here today?" ”
"Since the lord is always sad in Luoyang Palace, it is better to change places." Gao Chengyun Mountain fog cover tunnel.
Yuan Xiu's heart jumped, and he was suddenly alert, he was also manly, and still calmly asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Gao Cheng said with a smile, "The Lord is the Son of Heaven of Great Wei, why does the Son of Heaven stand up for power?" Emperor Xiaowen moved the capital to Luoyang because the city was not enough to stand, so that the Great Wei Dynasty prospered. Time has changed, and now Luoyang is not enough to stand, so the minister asked the lord to move the new capital again, and ensure the long-term stability of the Great Wei with the way of thinking about change. ”
"Move the capital, it turns out that this is what Gao Shizhong meant?" Yuan Xiu seemed to listen, but he didn't seem to listen. He asked lightly, "What does the waiter want?" ”
"Yecheng is fine." Gao Cheng's tone was unquestionable. He doesn't need explanations, he doesn't need persuasion, just show his attitude.
Originally, I thought that the emperor would be strongly opposed. Even if you do not object, you will always be angry. Since the succession to the unification, everything must follow this path: it doesn't matter the result, as long as it is the Gao family's proposal, Emperor Yuan Xiu will definitely not want to pass. It can be seen that the prejudices between the two sides are deep. But who knew that Yuan Xiu listened to Gao Cheng's words today, thought for a moment and nodded frequently, "Yedi has a long ancient rhyme, has the atmosphere of a national capital, and has far-reaching insights among the high servants. "It's rare to not only agree, but also to agree. It's just that the meaning of the words is not painful, and it doesn't seem to be my business.
Gao Cheng looked at Yuan Xiu with a smile, and bowed and said, "This is very good, since the lord has this intention, the minister will act according to the order." ”
The major event of moving the capital seems to have been decided in a few laughs from this monarch and a minister. Cui Jishu looked at Emperor Yuan Xiu and Gao Cheng in the service, and his heart was in a trance.
Seeing Gao Cheng turn around and leave, Cui Jishu followed, Yuan Xiu suddenly blurted out and whispered, "The finch is frozen to death on the mountain, why don't you fly to live and be happy?" "Yes, why wait to die, it's better to survive. It is better to wait for someone to save than to save yourself. At this time, the attendants who carried him dared to surround him. Yuan Xiu ordered idlely, "Go and pass the Nanyang Wang Yuanbao Torch and the servant Hu Sichun, the Wuwei general Yuanbi, and the Chinese army general Wang Sizheng to accompany the servants, and go out of the city to hunt with Gu." ”
The eunuchs and others dispersed to pass on their orders, and Yuan Xiu stood in the flowers and did not move. The sun is extremely warm, shining very comfortably, and the spring flowers are golden, and spring brings new hope to people.
Here, Gao Cheng strode in a hurry, and Cui Jishu caught up and whispered, "Don't you think the Lord is strange today?" ”
Gao Cheng said as he walked, "Go and ask Brother Changyou to go back to the mansion to discuss matters together." ”
Cui Jishu was stunned, but immediately understood again, and hurriedly obeyed the order.
In the Jiaofang Palace, the queen Gao Changjun copied and chanted scriptures, and did not go to the courtyard to bask in the rare warm spring sun. In addition to instructing people to send the newly copied scriptures and a new batch of gold silk rewards to the Qianxiang Temple of Longmen Mountain outside the city, he just drank the extremely bitter tea in the hall.
Ruoyun entered the hall, quietly walked to the front, knelt down and whispered back, "The prince was rude to Zuo Zhaoyi just by the Luoshui in the inner garden...... she didn't elaborate. The queen is the eldest sister of the prince, so she naturally knows the temperament of her younger brother.
Gao Changjun lowered his head and looked at the clear tea soup carefully, and only sighed lightly, "This Ah Hui ......"
Seeing that the queen didn't say any more, Ruoyun couldn't help but say proudly in front of the queen, "If you want the slave to say, it should have been like this a long time ago, so that Zuo Zhaoyi himself doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick." ”
Gao Changjun took a sip and said, "It's okay." ”
"It's just that Your Majesty doesn't seem to have a conflict with the prince." Ruoyun felt that something was wrong, and said while thinking.
"And then?" Gao Changjun put down the tea bowl and looked at Ruoyun and asked.
"Later, it was even more strange that the prince mentioned moving the capital to Yecheng, and the lord agreed, and said that the prince had insight, which is not like what the lord said." Even Ruoyun felt suspicious. "Later, as soon as the prince left, the lord immediately summoned the king of Nanyang and others to go out of the city to hunt." Ruoyun said as she looked up at the queen. Gao Changjun was expressionless and couldn't see anything.
"Go and tell the world about it." Gao Changjun only commanded this sentence. She keeps her promise, and the only thing she hopes to get in exchange is that her brother also keeps her promise.
Chen Yuankang, who was originally a major camera, was General Jia Weilie. He is a safe and credible person, and he is deeply respected by the prime minister. Now he has been promoted to the Prime Minister's Mansion Gong Cao to join the army, plus the auxiliary general, especially for Gao Huan and the heir Gao Cheng retained materials. Moreover, Chen Yuankang, his son Gao Cheng, and Cui Jishu have always been friends, so they naturally have won Gao Cheng's trust.
Chen Yuankang followed Cui Jishu into the Prime Minister's Mansion and transferred to the courtyard of the meeting. The courtyard was extremely quiet, and although there was no one guarding the door, it was also very clean, and no one dared to trespass. Chen Yuankang sighed in his heart the power of the son. Cui Jishu pushed the door and looked, only Gao Cheng was in the hall.
The hall was also very quiet. Gao Cheng was alone, standing in front of a hanging map and contemplating. He was still wearing the official uniform of the Great Wei when he entered the palace just now, and such a gloomy back would make people feel stunned about his age. Where is a boy who has not yet been crowned, it is clear that the world of Dawei is on his shoulders. In the hearts of Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu, the memory is more of the Xianbei boy with messy braids and bloody trouser folds, indulging in horses, galloping on the battlefield, joking and galloping, rarely having a moment of quietness. I don't know when he had a scheming, a city government, a decision, and a ruthlessness.
Gao Cheng was obviously too engrossed to hear anyone come in.
"Shizi, Changyou is here." Cui Jishu replied softly behind him.
Gao Cheng reacted very quickly and turned around suddenly, "Brother Changyou," he pointed to the couch below, "sit down and say." He himself walked quickly to the couch set up above and sat down first.
Chen Yuankang is a safe person, he doesn't talk much, he sat down and looked at Gao Cheng, waiting for his orders.
Gao Cheng was not in a hurry, he was thinking about it and asked casually, "What does Brother Changyou think of the Duke of Puyang County?" ”
Suddenly mentioning Hou Jinglai, Cui Jishu couldn't help but blurt out, "What did the prince mention him for?" His tone was full of disgust. In Jiankang, Hou Jing first assassinated and then rescued the prince, and Cui Jishu heard it clearly from Chen Yuankang, so he naturally hated Hou Jing to the core. It's just that he knows the temper of the prince, and he doesn't dare to show it so that the prince can see the clues.
Chen Yuankang glanced at Cui Jishu, intending to remind. In fact, it is already painstaking to secretly protect the prince and pay attention to Hou Jing, but it is still not appropriate for Hou Jing's movements to be known to the prince.
Gao Cheng didn't answer Cui Jishu, only looked at Chen Yuankang.
"Son, this person cannot be trusted, and he will never be willing to be driven by others." Chen Yuankang said frankly.
"Brother Changyou, I won't tell you, I've thought about it repeatedly these days." Gao Cheng still couldn't sit still, stood up, walked down and paced in the hall. While pacing to the two of them, he reached out and pressed their shoulders, motioning to sit down, and said, "Jiajun got up and fought in the town, and the rebellion in the six towns has not been easy so far. The bystander may seem to be disloyal, unrighteous, or capricious, but in fact he is only trying to protect his ears and not himself. In today's situation, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and if you advance, you will be in charge of the world's society, and if you retreat, you may not just die. He turned around and looked at Chen Yuankang and Cui Jishu, "The family is not alone in life and death, and it is not only the Gao family. Jiajun is surrounded by Sima Ziru, Sun Teng, the Gao clan, relatives such as my mother and brother, and the marriages are even more widely implicated, and there are countless nearers. I also have two brothers, Changyou and Shuzheng, and there are not a few people who accompany them. ”
Gao Cheng stopped, walked back to the edge of the couch and sat down. The meaning of his words is very clear, glory is both glory and glory, and loss is also loss and loss. This is the first time I have heard him say something like this.
"Today, Jiajun is in Jinyang, and my town is Luoyang. The whole country, the whole country, and the world are very watched. Respect the Yuan family, the Gao family is in charge of the government and has a bad name and power, and it will be hated for a long time. If you can't take a solid foundation and go further, I'm afraid that in the future, it will not be as simple as dying and exterminating. Gao Cheng's brows furrowed slightly.
"Does the prince want to represent Wei?" Cui Jishu blurted out.
Although Chen Yuankang did not speak, he was obviously thinking deeply.
