Chapter 34: Meeting for the Drink (Part I)

Singing and dancing in the hall, flying in the hall, Hou Jing only felt that it had nothing to do with him, he had already come out to sit in the corridor on the side of the courtyard, so that he could sit on the wall and watch.

"Why is the general sitting alone here?"

When Hou Jingzheng was distracted, he suddenly heard a voice behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Gao Cheng, and he quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Why did the waiter come out too?" ”

Gao Cheng smiled: "Didn't the captain of the attached horse also change his clothes and leave and not return for a long time?" As he spoke, he looked at Hou Jing and said with a smile: "The general and the captain of the horse seem to be very familiar with each other, so they must have been dating for a long time, right?" ”

Hou Jing was ashamed, looked at Gao Cheng without pausing at all and said with a smile, "The prince really loves to joke. Like Captain Ma Duwei, who has the weight of General Taihe Bayue, and now he is the closest person of the Son of Heaven, who doesn't want to socialize? I'm afraid the prince doesn't have this in his heart, right? ”

Gao Cheng didn't care about his tone, and said with a smile, "What the general said is very true, Gong and General He Bayue are also comrades in the Six Towns, right?" ”

Hou Jing was-for-tat, and said with a smile, "That's natural." Not only me, but even your father and prime minister were also friendly with General Yue at that time. ”

Gao Cheng said with a smile, "The general must know that the family monarch controls Luoyang, and the most taboo in his heart is General Guanxi Yue. Since General Yue ordered Yu Wentai to come to visit, he must also be deeply taboo about Jiajun. This is not good, it is even bad, after all, social welfare is important. Since you are so friendly with General Yue, you can't help mediating in the middle, so that Jiajun and General Yue can work together to assist the Son of Heaven. It's just that I don't know if the general and General Yue's friendship is Gong himself, or General Yue also agrees? ”

Hou Jing was stunned by the question and didn't speak for a long time. This question never seems to have been thought about. He wooed Yuwentai, firstly, for Yuwentai and his own use, and secondly, of course, to get close to He Bayue. But what Gao Cheng said is very right, is he interested in He Batyue, or does He Batyue also value him? Thinking about it, my heart was cold. Needless to say, Yuwentai is always half-truthful to him, and there is almost no truth. He Batyue has never had any direct or indirect interactions. Yuwentai is a confidant of He Batyue, isn't Yuwentai's attitude not He Batyue's attitude?

Gao Cheng looked at Hou Jing stunned for a long time, didn't say a word, and was not in a hurry to speak again. At this time, Fang turned his head and looked into the hall again. It seems that Yuwentai has not returned yet. It's just that the banquet is not over, the wine has not stopped, it is still a lively scene, and there are songs and dances. At this time, it sounded like Fang was playing a very unique tune.

He looked back at Hou Jing again, and said with a smile, "He Bayue and his people ......" He paused, seemed to have a faint sigh, coughed a few times, and then said, "Puyang Gong knows his people well, right?" It is not as good as a gentleman, broad-minded, and accommodates all directions. I don't know how this Yuwentai will explain when he goes back. ”

Hou Jing had recovered at this time, and asked quietly, "Explain what?" ”

Gao Cheng smiled, "I'm afraid I don't know." Jiajun and General Yue are the real comrades, and they know each other when they are soldiers in the six towns. For General Yue, Jiajun knows a lot. General Yue is very clear and values Yuwentai not only for his ability, but also for his loyalty. Now that Yuwentai has made friends with the family monarch privately, if General Yue knows, he will definitely not be close again. Gao Cheng said and looked at Hou Jing again, and said with a smile, "Not only for Yuwentai, General Yue is like this by nature, people who don't look at it don't need to say more, the more you want to make friends, the more you don't want to get rid of it." ”

Hou Jing's heart was cold. He knows his own affairs, and he is naturally never a good person in Hebayue. It's just that I didn't expect He Bayue to have such a personality, and he didn't eat soft and hard. In this way, the more he wanted to make friends, the more he touched his taboo. But thinking about it this way, now that He Batyue and Prime Minister Gao Huan are fighting, if He Batyue cuts off Gao Huan, he may not have a good ending in the future. In this way, at least Gao Huan is a little safer than He Batyue, and at least he can tolerate him.

Gao Cheng sighed again, "He Batyue is not too much like this, even if he is in power now, the future is unpredictable. Not to mention anything else, Hou Mo Chen Yue and Cao Ni alone are in Guanzhong instead of being with him. Hou Mo Chen Yue, what else can't he do? ”

Hou Jing was shocked when he heard this, stepped forward, looked at Gao Cheng and whispered, "What the prince said is extremely true. If the prince is willing to give benefits, he is not afraid that Hou Mo Chen Yue will not be able to get rid of He Bayue. ”

Gao Cheng felt a chill in his heart, he didn't want Hou Jing to be so vicious, and he immediately had the heart to eradicate He Bayue. smiled, quickly planned in his heart, and frowned unconsciously. He whispered, "That's a great plan. As long as there is no one but Hebat, the rest can ...... The rest can be ......," he raised his head and looked at Hou Jing, "If you are apart from He Bayue, the prince and the family will be in peace." In this way, it depends on the public. ”

After that, Gao Cheng walked with a step, and walked along the ring corridor to the hall again. The silk and bamboo in the hall were pleasant, dancing, and his face was calm, as if nothing had happened.

Hou Jing looked at Gao Cheng's back and walked away, Fang hated and blurted out, "Xianbei child......"

When Gao Cheng returned to the hall, it was already a completely different scene. At this time, the wine and food were added, and the feast was reopened, but it was clear that everyone's attention was no longer focused on it.

The Qing Shang dance music is moving, and the pipa, qin, and seer play together. Gao Cheng suddenly felt in a trance, and the appearance of Xiao Qiongju, the princess of Nanliang, when she was playing the piano, was faintly floating in front of him, and the music was tactful and just as moving. In a trance, there were beautiful and cold clothes and skirts fluttering in front of him, and it seemed that Yang Shunhua sometimes caught him coldly, and sometimes saved him with his life.

Wudi's face was a little painful, and he felt that the white gauze was really brushing on his face, and he woke up suddenly, and it turned out to be a dancing girl dancing in the white silk. Dressed like light clouds and mist, with a gorgeous face like a flower, and long sleeves floating up, the people in the clouds and mist are sometimes like a frightening dragon. When the body is fast, the body is swift and fluttering; In the quiet place, Ling Bo walks slightly, and Luo socks are dusty.

Gao Cheng looked at this dancing girl carefully, she was still young, and she seemed to be slightly older than Princess Feng Yi's Yuan Zhonghua. But the wind god is charming, but it is completely different from Yuan Zhonghua's ignorance and cuteness. When the dancing girl danced lightly, she seemed to look back frequently, and her eyes were like a storm, always lingering on him.

When the hall was full of joy, I heard someone praise, "This general Sun Teng's prostitute is really outstanding." ”

When Gao Cheng heard the word "Sun Teng", he turned around impatiently and paced towards the door.

Seeing Gao Cheng turn away, Mai Ji also regretted her eyes and was quite unhappy.

Gao Cheng suddenly found that Princess Feng Yi, Yuan Zhonghua, was standing not far from the door, looking at him, hurriedly walked over, and asked, "Why are you here?" Xia Guan was about to send someone to invite the princess. ”

Yuan Zhonghua turned his head sideways with great interest to look at Gao Cheng's body to see the dancing girl dancing in the hall, and asked puzzledly, "What is the husband looking for me?" Wouldn't it be better to watch the dance here? ”

Gao Cheng sighed inwardly.

Suddenly, he asked, "What about the second brother?" ”

Yuan Zhonghua was stunned, as if he was muttering to himself, "The second brother didn't come to the Hussar General's Mansion. ”

Gao Cheng's face was gloomy, and he said coldly, "The princess knows really well. With that, he walked outside on his own, only throwing a sentence, "Go home." ”

The full moon hangs like an ice tray in the distant and mysterious canopy, and the stars seem to be sparkling gems inadvertently sprinkled in the canopy. I don't know when it started, but the Hussar General's Mansion was dispersed, and it finally quieted down. I don't know when it started, but it gradually came late at night.

When Yu Wentai walked into the inner hall, he couldn't tell what it was like. From the bottom of his heart, he did not dislike the bride given by the emperor, and at the end of the day, he could already see that the eldest princess Yuan Yuying was a reasonable and moderate person, and he was very worried about the banquet.

But he still had an indescribable regret in his heart.

Nan Qiao, who was guarding the door, saw Yu Wentai pacing in thoughtfully and absent-mindedly at a glance. I only felt that there seemed to be nothing in front of him, so I hurriedly greeted him and saluted, and said with a smile, "General, please, the eldest princess has been waiting for the general for a long time." ”

Yu Wentai suddenly woke up, looked at Nan Qiao blankly, and did not speak. It took a long time to remember that this was Nan Qiao, the maid of the eldest princess Yuan Yuying. Nodding slightly, he still didn't speak, and went into the inner bed. When I went in, I saw Yuan Yuying sitting on the couch thinking about something. Because of the voice, Yuan Yuying retracted his thoughts, but he still sat on the couch and smiled, and did not get up.

Yu Wentai hurriedly strode to the couch and made a regular salute, "Xiaguan will meet the eldest princess." ”

Yuan Yuying got up with a smile, helped Yuwentai with a smile, and said with a smile, "Since they are already husband and wife, the husband doesn't have to be so polite." ”

Yuwentai flattened his body and looked at Yuan Yuying, who was standing opposite him, with a long body and a jade body, extremely beautiful and dignified, and couldn't help but say, "The princess is kind to the black otter in mind, and it is the black otter who wronged the princess." ”

"Black Otter...... Black Otter ......" Yuan Yuying seemed to like this name very much, and read it twice with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and then tilted her head and looked at Yuwentai carefully with a smile, revealing the appearance of a child, and the eldest princess who was reserved and dignified just now.

Yu Wentai's face turned slightly red when she saw it, and he asked a little unnaturally, "What does the princess look at?" ”

"Husband, please take a seat," Yuan Yuying pulled him to sit down, smiled and said, "Since you are husband and wife, where did you get any grievances?" Besides, I don't feel wronged. In the future, I just want to work with my husband to support the community and help my husband to settle the world. She looked at Yu Wentai with burning eyes.

Yuwen Tai suddenly felt like a confidant, and the heat in his heart was churning. The words "to secure the world" were deeply imprinted in his heart.

When the first rays of fish belly were just revealed on the horizon, the moon shadow was still faint and the stars were still there. Prime Minister Gao Huan is the first person in the house to wake up. At this moment of alternating darkness and dawn, he walked in the huge Bohai Palace. When he walked to the back garden, he was very sensitive to hearing the extremely strong wind.

Quietly pushed open the wooden door into the back garden, hidden behind a bush of bamboo, and then looked closely, under the pink peach blossoms, his eldest son Gao Cheng was dancing with a sword. The posture is suddenly like a pine, suddenly like a willow, the sword light is shining, the sword rain is one after another, and with the unfolding of his figure, it is like a treasure of protection.

Gao Huan only stood silently, did not move or speak. He has been fighting horses for half his life, and at this time, he can see that his son is already in the court and has the world in mind. He will rise high like the sun, and the wind is blazing, but he is no longer the young man who only knows how to be full of bravery, and the city in his chest and the mountains and rivers in his belly all let Gao Huan feel the majesty in it. Gao Huan was happy, but a trace of worry rose in his heart for no reason.

"Rigid is easy to break." What he secretly planned in his heart was to do his duty as a father and do his best to help his son remove obstacles.
