The leader was the rear general Sun Teng.

Sun Teng originally went to the Bohai Mansion first and saw the prime minister Gao Huan. The prime minister has a fate, and he must recover Yuwentai. Sun Teng didn't dare to slack off, and personally led people to chase after him. Catch up with the cavalry sent out earlier, and then rush together. He knew that Yuwentai and the eldest princess Yuan Yuying were unprepared and would definitely delay time by the river.

Sun Teng is the one who once killed the monarch with his own hands under the Yongning Tower. It was he who personally killed the little emperor Yuen Long brought by Gao Huan from Xindu.

Therefore, the eldest princess Yuan Yuying saw that although Sun Teng was shocked and cold to her heart and lungs at this time, she was more of an endless hatred. Yuan Yuying was a person with an extremely real temperament, and at this time, she couldn't help but step forward and said angrily, "Sun Teng! What do you mean that you have come here with many people chasing me and the hussar generals? ”

Yuwentai stretched out his arm to stop Yuan Yuying, protected her behind him, and asked calmly, "General Sun has been chasing here all night, could it be that the Lord forgot to say something important?" He deliberately did not mention the prime minister, Sun Teng was an official in the Great Wei court after all.

Sun Teng dismounted and bowed, "On the orders of the Prime Minister, please go back to Her Royal Highness the Hussar General and the Eldest Princess!" ”

Sun Teng's voice was cold, and he didn't have a word of explanation, and he didn't have a soft and tactful reason. The monarch killer is determined in his heart to only recognize his lord and prime minister Gao Huan, and only act on Gao Huan's orders.

At this time, Yu Wentai knew very well in his heart that Sun Teng must not eat soft and hard, and not eat oil and salt. Gao Huan understood this, so he didn't send others to chase after Sun Teng. Looking around, there were countless cavalry behind Sun Teng, and he definitely couldn't break through.

There was no fear on his face, he still had a smile on his lips, and said lightly, "I was ordered by the emperor to return to Chang'an with the eldest princess, didn't the prime minister obey the edict?" ”

Sun Teng said unceremoniously, "If you have something to say to the prime minister, I will only chase you back on the orders of the prime minister." ”

"Sun Teng! Do you dare to disobey the emperor's edict? Yuan Yuying asked angrily.

Yuwentai held her hand tightly and refused to let go, and when Yuan Yuying stopped behind him, Fang shouted and asked, "Sun Teng, do you only know that there is a great prime minister, but you don't know that there is a son of heaven?" Or do you want to be an enemy of Guanzhong and have a grudge against the prime minister? ”

Sun Teng had already stepped forward with his sword, his face full of murderous anger, "It's useless to say more, someone who knows the prime minister doesn't know the Son of Heaven." As he spoke, he strode closer.

Although Yu Wentai remained silent, he had already grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.

"General Sun Teng, slow down!"

As the saber rattled, a powerful voice was heard in the distance. Yu Wentai, Yuan Yuying, Sun Teng and others were quite surprised, and they all fled together. A black-clothed general came calmly on horseback, followed by a large group of cavalry.

"Chen Yuankang?" This person Yu Wentai didn't know, Yuan Yuying only knew that he had never met, but Sun Teng was extremely familiar.

Cheng wants to be, and Chen Yuankang, the general of Weilie, is deeply respected by the prime minister. And Sun Teng knew that Chen Yuankang also won the trust of Gao Cheng, the prince of the world, and was a close friend of the prince. So he didn't dare to take this person lightly.

"Changyou, you chased all the way, but the prime minister has something to order?" Sun Teng glanced at Yuwentai.

"Yuankang was ordered by the prince to send the hussar general and the eldest princess across the river." Chen Yuankang's words were not only to answer Sun Teng, but also to Yuwentai and Yuan Yuying. He said that he had dismounted, and he saw him as a courtesy.

Looking at Chen Yuankang's expression, Yu Wentai was extremely surprised, he never thought that Gao Cheng would have such a heart.

"Gao Cheng wants you to send us across the river? What did he want? Yuan Yuying didn't believe that the enmity between the Yuan family and the Gao family was deeply ingrained in her heart.

"Chen Yuankang, you don't have much to do with the affairs of the prime minister's father and son, and you only know how to obey the prime minister's orders." Sun Teng said and was about to step forward.

"Since they are father and son, what is the division between one and the other?" Chen Yuankang also stepped forward to stop Sun Teng, not allowing him to get close to Yuwentai and Yuan Yuying. "General Sun, please see." As he spoke, he gestured to the river.

Everyone on the shore looked into the river.

I don't know when, there is a building boat by the river, which is extremely beautifully decorated and gorgeous. On the bow of the ship, a brilliant and well-dressed person turned out to be Cui Jishu, a little soldier in the army. There are also several people in armor, who are solemn and mighty, which makes people fearful. And the middle of these people who are guarded by the stars like the moon, the beautiful young man in brocade clothes and Han clothes with his hair tied is the prince of Bohai and Gao Cheng in the waiter.

At this time, the sky was already bright, Gao Cheng stood on the bow of the boat, the breeze was blowing slowly, blowing the moon-white hairband on his head to his shoulders, and the moon-white clothes on his body were also fluttering, and there was no longer a little murderous and aggressive spirit, as if he was born so calm and elegant.

Chen Yuankang didn't speak again, only glanced at Sun Teng.

Yuwentai and Yuan Yuying didn't speak, they had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Sun Teng's mind was also wandering at this time. He has always only obeyed Gao Huan's orders. But sooner or later, the son of the world will take over, and now there is a clue. The prime minister is going to Jinyang on the same day, and the world in the future will naturally be the son of the world, if he violates him at this time, he also knows the temper of the son. Besides, Chen Yuankang is the great minister, and he also has Gao Huan's trust, and at this time, even if it is the life of the prince, it is difficult to say that it is not the acquiescence of the prime minister. If he is against him now, he will be enemies of Shizi and Chen Yuankang, and it is difficult to say that he must be right in the prime minister. If Yuwentai and the eldest princess are released, the prince and Chen Yuankang have nothing to say, even if the prime minister asks, there is a reason, after all, he can't suppress the prince, and the prime minister understands in his heart, and he won't be too responsible.

Sun Teng didn't speak, only waved his hand, ordered the cavalry to retreat, and he also glanced at Yuwentai and the eldest princess Yuan Yuying, and said to Chen Yuankang, "Go back and report to the prime minister, if there is something wrong, I have to come again to ask for advice." With that, he turned and walked away.

Yuwentai and the eldest princess Yuan Yuying led people to board the ship. The boat was moored on the shore, and Chen Yuankang led people to guard the river.

Gao Cheng greeted him with a smile, "Brother Black Otter and I already knew each other on this boat on the Yangtze River in Jiankang, and I don't want to send you back to Chang'an on this boat today." ”

Yuwentai saw that Gao Cheng was chasing the past and confessing his intentions, so he also smiled and said, "Brother Cheng is not afraid that I will go back to Chang'an and be your enemy?" ”

Gao Cheng smiled, "Whether it is an enemy or a friend has already been decided, how can it be that you can't return to Chang'an?" ”

Yuan Yuying was grateful but also refused to let go of hatred, and there were some doubts.

Gao Cheng smiled again, "It's still early, and it's time for a long walk." I won't delay much, it's important for Brother Black Otter to go back as soon as possible. Without waiting for Yu Wentai to say anything more, he turned around and disembarked with a smile.

Yu Wentai felt refreshed in his heart. Since he went from Jiankang to Luoyang, he has had many adventures. From Hou Jing to Gao Huan to Emperor Yuan Xiu, no one is not interested in the forces behind him and trading with him, and you come and go to negotiate conditions. Only Gao Cheng, who didn't say much, was so refreshing, relieved him from danger and sent him to Chang'an.

Gao Cheng is an extremely smart person, and Yu Wentai also understands this in his heart. What will he do when he returns to Guanzhong, he believes that Gao Cheng also knows very well in his heart. But this person's mind is here, which makes Yuwentai feel inexplicable. It's just that it's inconvenient to say anything at this time, just watching Gao Cheng get off the boat and get off the horse, surrounded by Chen Yuankang, Cui Jishu and others, and gradually move away.

Prime Minister Gao Huan has had sufficient food and straw these days, and the armament is neat, just waiting for the army to be sent to Jinyang in the future. At this time, Sun Teng returned home to restore his life, which was actually expected by Gao Huan.

Sun Teng was full of thoughts, and his grievances were relieved. Even if he didn't dare to mention the son of the world, Chen Yuankang only wanted to obey the order of the prince and did not obey the order of the prime minister, and he would definitely be sent again.

Who knew that the prime minister listened to his report and just said slowly with an expressionless face, "The prince is young and vigorous, but he does things reasonably." Now I will depend on him, and thou shalt obey him. ”

Sun Teng followed Gao Huan for a long time, and he could even abandon the Son of Heaven and only obey the orders of the prime minister. Now that I hear Gao Huan say this, thinking that the prince is about to take over, even the clan brother Gao Guiyan has no face and is correct, and he doesn't know what the fate will be. I felt even more disheartened, so I only answered the order and went home.

Emperor Yuan Xiu and Nanyang Wang Yuan Bao Ju, Wuwei General Yuan Bi, Shizhong Hu Sichun, Zhongjun General Wang Sizheng and others also knew that Yuwentai and the eldest princess Yuan Yuying had left Luoyang and ran to the pass, and they were also very happy. Although each has its own thoughts, they all have infinite expectations. Since then, Yuan Xiu has lived in the Cuiyun Pavilion, and he will not enter the Jiaofang Hall again. The government has no intention, but it always recruits Yuan Baoju, Yuan Bi, Hu Sichun, Wang Sizheng and others to see.

Outside Luoyang City, the grass is green and yellow.

The generals and soldiers who could not see the end at a glance lined up neatly and orderly, looking crisp and ready to go.

The armored prime minister Gao Huan showed his majestic nature at this time. He stationed his horse outside the gate of Luoyang City, looking at the army that was waiting for him to give an order and marched towards Jinyang. He was surrounded by Gao Cheng, who had the same bright armor, and his alluring face was covered a little, and the mighty murderous aura made people remember that he was also a famous general who had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he was the same as the enemy.

"Anu," Prime Minister Gao Huan's tone was low and serious, which was extremely incompatible with his majestic appearance at this time. "After I went to Jinyang, you were in the capital, and after that, I should obey your ......."

"Your Excellency!" Gao Cheng interrupted his father's words in great surprise. Since he was a child, his father has never had patience with him, and he often adds fists, kicks, and sticks, and he doesn't want to say such things today.

Gao Huan waved his hand to stop him, and said categorically, "Above the court, the world of Great Wei will be paid to you, and the Gao family will be paid to you." ”

Such a clear entrustment made Gao Cheng's heart surge. There is a sense of pride and self-reliance, but also a feeling of heaviness on the shoulders. He replied, "Don't worry, my lord." ”

Gao Huan didn't say anything more and whipped away.

"Take care, my lord!" Gao Cheng's voice echoed behind Gao Huan for a long time.
