Chapter 8: High Encounters (2)

Yecheng. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info Wei Palace. In the Jiaofang Palace.

Queen Gao Yuanjun sat in front of the big arc-patterned bronze mirror, but her eyes were closed, and she didn't look at herself in the mirror.

The atmosphere in the Jiaofang Hall has not been so relaxed and comfortable for a long time.

It was nearly dusk, and there was no lantern in the hall, but it was not very dark. In the only remaining light of the sunset, Gao Yuanjun sat on the big bed, looking soft and dignified. She is becoming more and more like a queen of the world. And, now she has nothing to worry about.

There are only two people in the hall, Gao Yuanjun and Xiaohu.

Xiaohu looked at the queen's scattered and pouring hair, and felt that the queen was very beautiful like this. It's a pity that when the Lord came up, the queen always dressed meticulously and always paid attention. Xiaohu snickered, if the lord saw the queen so beautiful, what would he think in his heart?

"Your Highness, comb it." Xiaohu watched with satisfaction as the queen flowed like a waterfall, and her long hair as bright as silk fell to her heels. "Your Highness has been tired for many days, and now that the matter has finally passed, King Gao has also returned to Jinyang, Your Highness should have a good rest." Xiaohu took the copper comb, carefully looked at the queen's hair, and said casually.

"It's time to rest." Gao Yuanjun opened his eyes. "The general and the Duke of Taiyuan have both got sons-in-law." Gao Yuanjun suddenly ripped open the question.

Xiaohu was silent. The queen has never been pregnant, which is a cause for concern.

"That's fine, with more involvement, the general and the Duke of Taiyuan won't bother the queen if they have nothing to do." Xiaohu comforted Gao Yuanjun.

Gao Yuanjun remembered that when her position as queen was endangered a few days ago, she had turned to her second brother Gao Yang for help, and now she felt embarrassed, and she really didn't want to see this second brother. What's more, she also knew that this second brother didn't really help her, and she felt more and more different from him.

"The general is now in a solid position, and no one can shake him." Gao Yuanjun sighed.

Hearing this tone, Xiaohu felt that the queen did not hold a very strong grudge against the previous general's desire to abolish her throne, and she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart.

"The Great General is always the eldest brother of His Royal Highness." Xiaohu can't be the queen's words.

Gao Yuanjun was silent.

Thinking about it carefully, in recent years, the eldest brother Gao Cheng has been assisting the government in Yecheng and has made quite a lot of achievements. Although the punishment of corruption and the selection of materials were excessively radical at the beginning, now everything has become a system.

Since even his uncle Wei Jing, his father's old man Hou Jing, Sima Ziru and others have been severely punished, what else can others say? Now it is a rule to act according to the law, and everyone follows their minds and never dares to disobey again. Actually, that's a good thing.

started first, abolished the system of stopping the year to be elected, and the people in the gate valve were quite dissatisfied. The eldest brother is very smart. He chose his own materials for backup, which won the hearts of the people, but he gradually softened the gate valve and calmed down those original grievances. Now that the interests have been restored, the gate lords have also thought of joining the general.

Although he fought for many years, he relied on Cui Xian's idea to boil salt to fund the military. Coupled with the fact that he opened his mouth, lightly burdened the people, and the people's popularity increased, the eldest brother not only governed the Great Wei thrivingly, but also became more and more prestigious.

Gao Yuanjun was scared in his heart. The national strength is growing, the ministers are subdued, and the people's prestige is very high...... What's behind all this? No wonder her husband Jun Yuan is good at seeing that his heart is getting heavier and heavier. King Yuanhui of Jibei often comes and goes in the palace. Gao Yuanjun knows a lot, and does her eldest brother know all this?

She felt even more sorry for her husband.

Gao Yuanjun stood up. instructed Xiaohu to award rewards to the general's wife, the eldest princess Yuan Zhonghua, and the Duchess of Taiyuan, Li Zu'e. It's all child's stuff.

To Xiaohu's surprise, the queen ordered Yuan Yuyi, the princess of Langya in Dongbaitang, to also give a generous reward.

It's been a long time since it's been so lively in Dongbai Hall.

What makes Yuan Yuyi particularly happy in her heart is that she is the protagonist of today's excitement.

The queen ordered people to give awards with great fanfare, all of which were awarded to Princess Langya. To say that the things given, there is nothing special, but it is a silk treasure, and the value may not be as good as Gao Cheng's gift. But the queen actually put her alongside the eldest princess Yuan Zhonghua and the Duchess of Taiyuan Li Zu'e, which made her particularly happy.

What's more, the queen is also the general's own sister.

The change in the queen's attitude towards her also illustrates the change in her status from the side. This status is not only the title she receives, but also her position in the heart of the great general Gao Cheng. Otherwise, the queen would not have treated her so kindly.

That day, in the Zhaotai Palace, the general deliberately vented his anger for her and teased Gaoyang Wang Yuanbin, which was obvious to many people.

One of the queen's gifts was a dance dress, which was particularly beautiful. The dress was as white as snow and as soft as a cloud, not the kind of linen dress she had worn before. If you wear such a dance costume and dance in white silk, what kind of amazing posture is it? If the general saw it, how would he be dazzled?

Yuan Yuyi held the dance dress in her hand, a little delirious, not at the moment. It's just that she is pregnant now, and I don't know if she can dance the white silk dance well. She didn't hear it, and Tinu walked in, looked at her, and walked out again. Tinu had wanted to come and tell her that the general was coming.

Not only the general came, but Cui Jishu, Chen Yuankang, Cui Xian, and Yang Yu all came. It seems that it is a big deal. And the prince has the intention of staying up all night.

The Crane Hall is already brightly lit.

Yang Yujing accompanied the last seat and looked up at Gao Cheng. It's been a long time since he's been to Dongbaitang. As the chief of Taiyuan, he has more double halls in Gaoyang. And it's no secret, it's something everyone knows. He didn't believe the general wouldn't know. It's just that why would the general be willing to let him come to Dongbai Hall at such a time to discuss matters? Did he really regard him as a confidant?

Yang Su felt that Gao Cheng looked very different today than before. In the past, the great generals often exerted their authority in the court, and they were aggressive. Even in private, it feels more like a high-level gentleman. I don't want to look like a scholar today, full of books, and as warm and lustrous as jade.

Yang Su looked at the books on the wall of Minghe Hall. In the past, he really didn't believe that Gao Cheng would be a reader and would really read these books. Look at Gao Cheng again, deliberately dressed casually. A blue robe, with a green jade hook, a green coat in the moon of mid-spring, and a jade suit, which is also suitable for the occasion. The bun did not use a small crown, but a scarf. The long two feet of the cyan ribbon hung on his shoulders, and sometimes they were brushed on his shoulders, which really looked like a kind of charm of talking and laughing.

"Zunyan" suddenly heard Gao Cheng call him.

Yang Su looked up and saw that the pair of soul-stirring green eyes were looking at him with a smile, the green was pure and clear, the whole eye seemed to be transparent, and the dark green was blurred in it. This is something that Yang Su has never seen before, and that feeling makes him a little unbearable to look at it directly.

"General." Yang Yu was still very calm and calm on the surface, but at this time he had already cheered up.

"The Duke of Taiyuan has not yet arrived, and Zun Yanru is the chief of the Duke of Taiyuan, so he must also know about the fact that I made him a household, but I don't know if it will be effective?" Gao Cheng walked to the last seat by himself and sat down next to Yang Su, he faced the map in front of him.

Yang Su turned sideways and replied, "The matter of Kuhu was sent by the Taiyuan Public College to do it, and the minister didn't fully know about it. I only know that Taiyuan Gong personally ordered the general to do this, and he did his best to do his best, and he didn't dare to be negligent. With such a heart, it must have been fruitful, and he will not dare to delay the general's war. Yang Yu knew that Gao Cheng didn't really ask him about the household, and he guessed that he just needed to know his attitude.

Gao Cheng also turned sideways to face Yang Su, listened carefully to what he said, his eyes were still focused on him, staring at Yang Su's eyes. "Since Zunyan assists my brother, it is like assisting me, and you must not be contemptuous because Taiyuan Gong is young." After saying that, he turned his head and glanced at Chen Yuankang, Cui Jishu, and Cui Xianam, and said in a slow voice, "Taiyuan Gong is not only my half-brother, but also the heir of the Gao family, and I have high hopes for him. The princes are supplemented by me, and the Taiyuan princes should also be regarded as the same. Supplemented by Taiyuan Gong is also supplemented by me, do not be lazy. ”

Chen Yuankang, Cui Jishu, and Cui Xian were nothing, and Yang Yu suddenly felt a cold sweat. He knelt down and thanked, "According to the general's instructions, the minister will never dare to be lazy." ”

Listening to the meaning of Gao Cheng's words just now, it seems that he also invited Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang to come to Dongbaitang to discuss together. Chen Yuankang, Cui Jishu, and Cui Xian didn't know about it. When he couldn't distinguish between the true and the fake, there were servants who came back and forth, saying that the Duke of Taiyuan was coming and waiting to see him outside.

Gao Cheng ordered to come in, and after a while, he saw Gao Yang walk in.

Gao Cheng had already gotten up at this time, and actually walked to the door to greet Gao Yang in person.

Gao Yang saw that the eldest brother came over with a smile and stretched out his hand to him, Gao Yang couldn't help but tremble, his face changed greatly, and he subconsciously avoided it.

Gao Cheng smiled, "Hou Niyu is now an adult, and he doesn't need me to support him." ”

This is half-true, but Gao Cheng is smiling and doesn't seem to mind, which makes people even more indistinguishable.

Gao Cheng and Gao Yang stand opposite each other, forming a stark contrast. Gao Cheng was wearing a light-colored robe, but Gao Yang was still dark-colored. Gao Cheng was smiling, as if he was particularly cheerful, but Gao Yang's face was gloomy and he looked stunned.

Yang Su, Chen Yuankang, Cui Jishu, and Cui Xian were all because of the auxiliary cushion of the general's words just now, and even more importantly, because Gao Cheng himself went to greet Gao Yang, they naturally all got up to greet each other, and many pairs of eyes were staring at these two brothers at this time.

Gao Yang lowered his head and said, "The eldest brother beat him too hard a few days ago, and Hou Niyu was scared in his heart. ”

This is also true. In the turmoil of the abolished princess, Gao Yang did let Gao Cheng beat him a lot, and every time Gao Cheng hit him very hard. But how can this be said openly at this time? What's more, it's still so frightened.

Cui Jishu and Cui Xian's uncle and nephew all lowered their heads and tried their best to hold back laughter.

Chen Yuankang and Yang Su didn't laugh, they both stared at Gao Yang. After a while, the two of them looked at Gao Cheng together.

Gao Yang also raised his head and looked at the eldest brother pitifully.

Gao Cheng laughed violently.

After laughing, Gao Cheng suddenly made a move, and before Gao Yang could dodge again, he had already grabbed Gao Yang's wrist. Gao Yang suddenly felt that his wrist was clamped very strongly. He could not escape, and this aroused real fear in his heart. Gao Cheng didn't care what he thought in his heart, he just pulled him to walk towards the big bed, and then threw Gao Yang over. Gao Yang sat on the big bed and looked at Gao Cheng at a loss.

"Hou Niyu, how are you doing what I have entrusted you?" Gao Cheng sat down on the other side of the bed. He asked Gao Yang as he motioned for the others to sit down.

Gao Yang sat there stiffly, maintaining the posture he had just fallen and not daring to move, looking at Gao Cheng with a wary face, both his movements and his expression were very unnatural. "The matter of the eldest brother, Hou Niyu did not dare to delay, and earlier ordered Gao Longzhi to be the ambassador of the household, and now he has collected 600,000 yuan."

Gao Cheng was very natural, leaned in very comfortably, squinted at Gao Yang and smiled, "Very good, very good." He didn't ask in detail, as if he believed Gao Yang very much. My Dawei and Xikou face off, and the subtleties may affect the whole body. Yuwen Black Otter newly established the system of government soldiers, which belonged to the generals of the Eight Pillars of the Kingdom, and each was given the old surname of Xianbei. The military governments cultivate in peacetime and fight in wartime, which not only saves military expenses but also has more connections, which shows that the black otter has a long-term vision and must be fully prepared. Hu Niyu, I let you bracket the household, it is the most important responsibility, if it were not for the fact that you are my younger brother, I would not dare to deliver. Is this the business of the nation of soldiers? ”

Gao Yang looked at Gao Cheng stupidly and replied, "The general is my eldest brother, and what the eldest brother asked me to do, Hou Niyu will definitely not dare to care." Is the general going to use troops against Xikou? Gao Yang put aside the topic just now, and suddenly changed the topic and asked.

The attention of the remaining four people was attracted by Gao Yang's question, and they looked at Gao Cheng attentively.

After the Battle of the River Bridge, Gao Cheng and Yuwentai made a three-year contract. Now that the three-year period has not yet expired, if Gao Cheng rashly sends troops to the west, he may cause controversy in the world. If the army is defeated, it will be even more shameful for the people of the world.

Several people are smart people, and they naturally understand the truth of becoming a king and defeating a villain. There is no defeated king in the world, only defeated thieves. Of course, Gao Cheng doesn't care whether the world disputes him and laughs at him. In the world, he is the only one who disputes others and laughs at other people's affairs; No one else dared to judge him or laugh at him. In Gao Cheng's heart, this is the truth.

"Zunhiko, what do you say?" Gao Cheng turned his head, looked at Yang Su who was sitting down with a deep gaze, and asked, leaving Gao Yang aside. His appearance seemed condescending and idle, as if he was talking about some kind of street discussion.

Of course, Yang Yu didn't dare to slack off, knelt down straight and replied, "The minister is not in the war, if the general wants to use the army, it must be reasonable, and the minister can only fulfill his duties and not let the general work hard." He bowed his head as he spoke, and his attitude was extremely respectful. And the meaning of these words is very deep, and the words "don't let the general work hard" are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Gao Cheng didn't speak, and turned his head to look at Gao Yang again.

Gao Yang seemed to have just reflected, and hurriedly replied, "Yang will also take the lead of the eldest brother, do his part, and don't let the eldest brother worry too much." ”

This attitude can be regarded as satisfying Gao Cheng. He smiled, "Hou Niyu is really sensible, and his words are different from before. ”

Gao Cheng seemed to be already complacent, and his intention to go west was already ready to come out.

"Big brother, don't you have a three-year appointment with Yuwen Black Otter?" Gao Yang suddenly asked another question at this time, which no one would ask.

"What about an appointment?" Gao Cheng asked rhetorically at all. He stared at Gao Yang with interest and said with a smile, "Hou Niyu, can't you see that you are still a person who keeps your promises?" ”

It's like a joke, but it's not like it. Yang Su, who was in the last seat, was nervous, looking at Gao Yang, not knowing how he was going to answer. (To be continued.) )
